Chapter 22
The "dirty" and "chaotic" behind the strong man's prosperous Tang Dynasty

"Dirty Tang rotten man" is used to describe the Han and Tang Dynasties, which are two heyday dynasties, which is a bit unbelievable.But getting used to the court life and ethical relationship of the two dynasties is indeed worthy of this statement.In the Han Dynasty, starting from Liu Bang, the relationship between men and women was no longer orthodox. There were no longer a few concubines in Liu Bang's harem, and while he was greedy for beauty, he would also favor men exclusively.

Compared with Liu Bang, who took all men and women, Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was even worse. During his reign, he recruited beauties everywhere, because there were too many beauties. In order to solve the housing problem of these beauties, Liu Che built the "Jianzhang Palace" ".The palace is more than 30 miles long, and there are many rooms in it, each room accommodates a beautiful woman, and there are about 18000 people for Liu Che's lust.The youngest of these beauties was 15 years old, and the oldest was no more than eighteen or nineteen years old. Liu Che played and sang every night in this palace of beauties, and eventually his body was hollowed out and he couldn't afford to get sick.

As for Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, Liu Ao was even more outrageous. He doted on sisters Zhao Feiyan and Zhao Hede. In order to please these two sisters, Xu Mei in the palace gave birth to a child. The beauty smiled.Killing his own child to win the beauty's face, the emperor later indulged in excessive sex, and was only 40 years old and became bald and hunchbacked, lacking in strength.

In order to continue the lewd pleasure, Zhao Feiyan found an aphrodisiac for him to take, and finally because of an overdose, Emperor Han Cheng died on the body of the beauty.As for the relationship between men and women in the harem of the Tang Dynasty, it was even messier.After Tang Taizong Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen coup, he occupied Li Yuanji's wife, Yang family. After he ascended the throne, he also made Yang a concubine.

And Tang Gaozong Li Zhi came together with his father Li Shimin's concubine Wu Zetian.There is also Tang Xuanzong Li Longji, who fell in love with his daughter-in-law, and insisted on winning her love, and brought Yang Yuhuan into the palace.These unethical things all happened in the harem of the Tang Dynasty.This is true for the emperors in the harem, and even more so for the women in the harem.After Wu Zetian ascended the throne and became the emperor, she enjoyed male favors with her daughter, Princess Taiping. Along with them were Tang Zhongzong Li Xian's empress Webster and Wu Zetian's close female official Shangguan Wan'er. They were also romantic and happy behind the scenes.

Empress Wei had an affair with her daughter's husband, because Li Xian was weak and sick all the year round, unable to satisfy Webster, and her son-in-law was so talented that Empress Wei couldn't help being jealous of her daughter's beauty, so she simply used the queen's power to order her son-in-law to stay in bed. Sharing a man together was not uncommon in the Tang Dynasty.

Empress Wei's daughter, Li Bao'er, had a romantic nature since she was a child. She had an affair with Wu Chongxun, Wu Sansi's son, and became pregnant. Finally, she had to marry Wu Chongxun.After less than six months of marriage, she gave birth to a boy. Later, after Wu Chongxun was killed by Prince Li Chongjun, Li Baoer, who couldn't bear the loneliness, flirted with Wu Yanxiu again and hooked up with each other.

"Old Tang Book" records: "Wu Chongxun is the son-in-law of Princess Anle, that is, Yanxiu taught from his father and brother to the master. Yanxiu has been in foreign lands for a long time, interpreting Turkic language, and often in the master's house. Yanxiu sings Turkic songs and does Huxuan dance. The Lord is very pleased with her charming appearance. When Chongxun died, Yanxiu was lucky enough to be honored as a princess."

Both Li Gu'er and Empress Wei are powerful people, they were worried that their favoritism would be revealed, and Li Xian would punish them both, so they simply acted preemptively and poisoned Li Xian to death, the most poisonous thing is a woman's heart. The mother and daughter are really fully reflected.The dirty and ugly behaviors of the Han and Tang Dynasties are seen by animals today, but in the courts of those feudal dynasties, they were constantly staged.
