This was not the worst thing for Mu Xieli. After all, Gao Heng succeeded to the throne and she became the Queen Mother, ascending to the highest position among women in the world.
The Northern Qi Dynasty was conquered by the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the capital Yecheng was conquered. The Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed. Mu Xieli's life took a turn for the worse and ushered in the most miserable days.
Members of the royal family of the Northern Qi Dynasty were escorted to Chang'an. After that, almost all the men were killed, and the women were left to fend for themselves on the streets. Mu Huanghua made a living, and at the instigation of Empress Dowager Hu, they fell into prostitution. After that, Empress Mu Huanghua
She married a salt merchant as a concubine, but was kicked out of the house by the salt merchant's wife and became a beggar. She returned to Chang'an begging, and her deeds are unknown since then.
Now, we watch house fights, palace fights are very addictive, Aunt Dou, Tear the White Lotus, look very awesome, but this is the tragedy of an era. In the ancient social system, women, especially women with higher status,
The less they can control their own lives, they have been raised in a deep compound since childhood, just to be sent to the bed of a man who is beneficial to the family one day.
Apart from music, chess, calligraphy, painting, lyrics and poems, they have no other abilities. If they want to live a good life for themselves and their children, they can only firmly hold on to the person they marry, let the man's eyes fall on them, and don't let their own
Only by disappearing from a man's heart can he find a good life and a good way out for himself and his children.
It is precisely because of this system that their cruel and twisted characters were born. Unlike today's women, who are independent in personality and finance. After the marriage law was revised, the innocent party in the marriage was protected, and they dared to find a mistress outside.
, Xiaosi, Xiao∞, if I’m in a good mood, I’ll give you a fig leaf. If I’m in a bad mood, get out of here!
Oops, I'm talking too far again.
After talking about Mu Xieli’s life, let’s talk about Lu Lingxuan.
It can be said that Lu Lingxuan single-handedly supported Mu Xieli to become the queen. Mu Xieli is also very smart. She has no background. If she wants to be stable in the harem, she must keep Lu Lingxuan close to her. Therefore, after she became the queen,
After giving Gao Wei a blow, Lu Lingxuan was named Tai Ji and was ranked above the eldest princess. Luo Dipo, Lu Lingxuan's son, was also issued an edict to change his surname to Mu. In this way, Mu Xieli had a natal family and a family.
background.
Empress Dowager Hu, Gao Zhan's empress, as mentioned earlier, was a woman who loved freedom and freedom. When the scandal was exposed, Gao Wei was furious and imprisoned Empress Dowager Hu in the Beigong. From then on, Empress Dowager Hu was regarded as the most important in the eyes of the emperor.
Her status plummeted, and she was replaced by Gao Wei's wet nurse, Lu Lingxuan. With Empress Dowager Hu banned, Lu Lingxuan was the highest authority in the palace. It can be said that Lu Lingxuan was only missing the title of "Queen Mother".
This aroused her desire to become the Queen Mother, but she was unable to realize it because of too much resistance in the court.
However, Lu Lingxuan did not remain arrogant for too long. After the fall of Northern Qi, she lost all her rights overnight and became a prisoner. I wonder if she committed suicide because she could not accept such a disparity.
Most of the women mentioned earlier were mentioned in one sentence, and even if they were mentioned, it was only a matter of a few sentences. However, Lu Lingxuan was really unavoidable. This woman, step by step, rose from the quagmire to the top step by step, turning this last generation of the Northern Qi Dynasty
The sewage in the pond became even more turbid, proving once again that "one general can make a thousand bones wither". However, Lu Lingxuan was not a good general.
Does she look nothing like Lu Zhen? Lu Zhen is still cute.
After talking about this inevitable woman, let’s talk about Gao Wei.
In the darkness of the late Northern Qi Dynasty, when all kinds of demons and demons were showing their teeth and claws, Gao Wei was indispensable. Without his faintness, neither the demons in the harem nor the demons and demons in the previous dynasty would dare to dance.
One thing worth mentioning is that Gao Wei was a mess in governance, but he had certain attainments in music, which can be described as obsession. I found that the faint emperors in history always had attainments in other areas, such as
Music, literature, art, etc., unfortunately, as an emperor, you can like these, but the most important responsibility is to govern the country. No matter how accomplished you are in other areas, if you are not good at governing the country, you will still be scolded by future generations.
Let’s leave aside the Qi State/Northern Qi State and let’s look at the Great Zhou Dynasty/Northern Zhou Dynasty.
After Yuwen Yong succeeded to the throne, he had been working against Yuwen Huyang, pretending to be an obedient and competent puppet emperor, but secretly, he was working hard to get rid of Yuwen Hu.
This series of measures to paralyze Yuwenhu did have an effect. Or maybe Yuwenhu had been in a high position for a long time and was more powerful. He thought that no one would do anything to him again, so he relaxed his vigilance. Whatever the reason, Yuwenhu
Hu relaxed his vigilance towards Yu Wenyong.
In the year that Gao Wei of Qi State killed Hu Luguang (572), Yu Wenyong finally found the opportunity to take action.
On March 18, the seventh year of Tianhe (572), Yuwenhu returned to Chang'an from Tongzhou (today's Dali, Shaanxi).
Yuwen Yong came to Wen'an Palace and met Yuwen Queen Mother respectfully:
"Brother, you have had a hard time on the road."
Yuwenhu looked like an emperor, waving his hand casually:
"It's okay. If the Queen Mother wants to see me, just take me there quickly."
Yu Wenyong responded and led him into Hanren Hall to meet the Empress Dowager.
When Yu Wenhu was about to enter Hanren Hall, Yu Wenyong complained to him:
"The Queen Mother is old and loves to drink. If she is not a close person, she is sometimes not allowed to visit her. She is happy and angry at times, and her temper is a bit abnormal. Although she has advised her many times in the past, she has not listened. Since it is my brother's visit today,
I hope you can advise the Queen Mother again."
Yu Wenhu nodded impatiently.
Seeing that Yuwenhu agreed without any doubt, Yuwenyong took the opportunity to take out the "Jiu Gao" from his arms and handed it to Yuwenhu:
"Use this to persuade the Queen Mother."
Yuwenhu took it over with disgust. Regardless of whether he wanted it or not, the Queen Mother was Yuwentai's wife. Yuwenhu would definitely do what she should do.
When Yu Wenhu paid a visit to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother gave him a seat. Yu Wenyong stood aside and waited on him carefully as before.
Everything was no different from usual, and Yu Wenhu was not suspicious at all. He took out the "Jiu Gao" and read it aloud to the Queen Mother.
But before he finished reading, Yu Wenyong quietly took out the jade tablet and hit Yu Wenhu from behind. Yu Wenhu fell down in response, but he did not die.
In any case, Yuwen Hu had been domineering for so many years, and Yu Wenyong was also a little timid. Seeing that Yu Wenhu was not dead, he did not dare to go forward and kill him, so he ordered the eunuch He Quan to kill Yuwen Hu with a sword.
However, He Quan was also afraid. He cut down but failed to hit Yuwenhu's vitals. At this time, Yuwenyong's younger brother, King Wei Yuwenzhi, who had been hidden in the room, immediately rushed out and killed Yuwenhu.
Everyone in the room felt relieved after it was confirmed that Yuwen Hu was dead, but this was not the end.
Wang Gui, Yuwen Shenju, and Yuwen Xiaobo who participated in the fight against Yuwen Hu were all out of town today, so Yuwen Yong summoned Sun Lan, the chief minister of the palace, and others.
