Northern Qi Empress Constellation _ What is the Northern Qi Empress Constellation?

Empress dowager constellation of Northern Qi Dynasty

As we all know, the Northern Qi Dynasty was notorious in the history of China. In a short period of 28 years, six kings were changed successively, and a series of cruel, barren and abnormal farce were staged, which was called "beast dynasty" and "abnormal dynasty" by later generations.

Hu Taihou is one of the "outstanding representatives". She was crowned queen, and she should be the master of the world. She is elegant and noble, and her life is clean. However, she used her power and position to be extravagant and shameless all day, and was called "the first in history". What is even more surprising is that she actually said a classic quotation, "Better die than die", which is shocking.

So, what kind of person is this Hu Taihou? Why is she so amazing?

Hu Taihou is from Anding County, Beiqi. In 552 AD, the beautiful and charming Hu Taihou stood out in the beauty contest and was named the concubine of Gao Zhan, the king of Changguang. A few years later, Hu gave birth to two sons, the eldest son Gao Wei and the second son. In 56 1 year, after inheriting the throne of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Hu was made a queen.

According to the royal rules, on the night of the queen's canonization, the queen should serve in the bedroom, but these ancestral systems are not binding in the eyes of the Northern Qi Emperor. She has a crush on a beautiful and delicate widow, and can't wait to leave Hu's house and want to get into her sister-in-law's bedroom. Fortunately, Li Zue is still ashamed and unwilling to give in. However, the greedy and shameless Gao Zhan did not stop, threatening his son's life. Desperate Li Zue had to agree to Gao Zhan's shameless request.

Hu lives here alone and feels lonely and resentful.

But this is just the beginning. From then on, Gao Zhan began to love Li Zue until they blossomed and Li Zue gave birth to a daughter.

However, Li Zue, overwhelmed with shame and indignation, drowned the innocent baby himself. Gao Zhan, who got the news, brutally whipped her, then put her in a silk bag and threw her into the moat. Thanks to the timely rescue of the ladies-in-waiting, Li Zue recovered her life.

Desperate Li Zue became a nun from then on, often accompanied by a blue lantern.

Hu, who was burning with jealousy, seemed to want revenge and make friends with his cronies and literati.

He Shikai was a favorite of Gao Zhan, and when he was the King of Changguang in Gao Zhan, he was his confidant counselor. Not only is he handsome, but he also plays the pipa very well.

Hu and Hu Shi have an affair, but they seem to have nothing to do with themselves and ignore it. This made Hu more indulgent and searched around the palace for prey. According to historical records, Hu "insulted eunuchs".

In order to ensure the long-term power of the absolute monarch, He Shikai urged Gao Zhan to give way to Prince Gao Wei and concentrate on enjoying the harem life. The fatuous Gao Zhan actually obeyed, and really let Cushman & Wakefield inherit his own throne, while he devoted himself to the pursuit of happiness.

However, due to shortage, only three years later, Gao Zhan, 32, died suddenly.

After his death, Hu became the empress dowager. At this time, she has no scruples, which is known to all.

A group of honest ministers wrote in succession, demanding that Gao Wei kill him and open him. However, Cushman & Wakefield was very afraid of the strength of He Shikai and Hu Taihou and hesitated. I'm afraid I'll be bitten by myself if I miss.

In order to stabilize He Shikai, Gao Qiu changed him to King Huaiyang.

Finally, He Shikai's insolence led to his death. Wang Langya (Gao Wei's younger brother) and his brother-in-law Feng Zikai are determined to kill the people.

They caught Gao Wei and never looked at the paper carefully. They only knew the habit of marking, and mixed the paper that killed He Shikai with many papers to mark Gao Wei. Faced with a thick stack of test papers, Gao Wei threw them away. "I don't want to see it, just do it."

After receiving the royal approval, the two men intercepted Shikai at the beginning of the dynasty in an ordinary way.

Although Gao Wei felt wrong, he still "agreed" and was speechless.

After losing the heart of a gentleman, the shameless Empress Hu shifted her goal and took a fancy to Tan Xian, a monk in the temple.

In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, they just wandered around the meditation room secretly at first. Later, she and the used Hu bed were moved to the temple.

But Hu Taihou is still not satisfied. In the name of "giving lectures", he simply presented Tan Xian to the palace. This nasty behavior is well known, even the monks in the temple secretly call Tan Xian "the emperor's father", but Gao Wei is kept in the dark.

Finally, the fatuous Gauguin discovered his mother's adultery. One day, Cushman & Wakefield saw two "maids" around Hu Taihou, whose skin was like congealed fat, their faces were beautiful and their hearts were steep. On the monkey bed, they ordered two people to serve their bedroom, but the two "maids" refused. Gao Wei, who became angry from embarrassment, ordered the "maid" to be stripped naked, and the result was sad. These two men are actually monks.

The unbearable high latitude imprisoned Hu Taihou and beheaded Tan Xian and others.

In 577 AD, the Northern Qi Dynasty finally perished. Hu Taihou and Gao Wei's Queen Mu Huanghua live on Chang 'an Avenue. At this time, Hu Taihou was only 40 years old and still charming and beautiful. Hu Taihou, who lacked the means to make a living, looked at Muhuanghua in its prime and had an absurd idea-opening a brothel.

As a result, there was an unheard-of wonderful scene in Chang' an, in which two queens of the previous dynasty became prostitutes at the same time. However, business is still booming.
