Wu Huifei, an expert in palace fighting, how did she achieve "three kings a day"?

In the 25th year of Kaiyuan (737), Prince Li Ying and Prince Li Yao and Li Cong entered the palace, dressed in armor and armed with sharp weapons, and rode to the palace. But they don't know that they are caught in a whirlpool of conspiracy, and death is approaching them step by step. It was a heartless woman in the harem who created this confrontation for them: their common mother, Wu Huifei.

On this day, they suddenly received a secret order from Princess Hui: a large number of thieves broke into the palace and came to rescue and arrest. In the secret order, it is particularly emphasized that these thieves are numerous, menacing, ferocious and armed with sharp weapons. Let the prince and others wear armor and carry weapons. After hearing the secret order, the three brothers didn't have time to think about it, so they galloped and whipped away.

Perhaps because of impatience, I forgot the rules of the palace, perhaps because the concubines were not so vicious and even a little negligent. If they wear armor and carry weapons into the palace without the permission of the emperor, they will be punished as "rebellion."

Huifei in the palace got the spy's tip-off early, and the three brothers immediately entered the palace! Huifei handsome face with a sinister sneer. She immediately went to Longji in Li See, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. The Emperor said, "Prince Li Ying, Li Yao, king of Hubei, and Li Cong, king of Guang, are armored and armed with knives, and they are coming. Please abide by the emperor ... "

Li Longji was very angry when he heard about it and sent someone to check it out. If so, he will consult with Prime Minister Li (who has been bought by Hui Fei). Li said, "This is your majesty's internal affairs, and I have no right to interfere." Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty abolished all three sons as Shu Ren and soon put them to death. Everyone in the world thinks this is wrong.

Why did Wu Huifei do this? In a word, for power. Wu Huifei, the granddaughter of Wu Zetian, whose father died young, grew up in the palace since childhood, was sheltered and trained by Wu Zetian, and was very good at fighting.

She is clever, observant and resourceful. When he grew up, he was favored by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and began to be named Jieyu. She gave birth to Xia Ai Wang, Xia Ai, Li Mao, the daughter of the immortal king and princess, Princess Taihua, and four sons and three daughters. The emperor was very kind to her, even Ye Zhao, the mother of the prince, was excluded by her. Hui Fei was crowned queen in all aspects. Concubines, such as Zhao's mother, were favored by princes, because the then crown prince and his mother's Hubei king had fallen out of favor. Although she is good-looking and can sing and dance, she was also deeply loved before. Due to Hui Fei's obstruction, these favored concubines were alienated by Xuanzong.

Wu Huifei enjoys the treatment of the Queen. Why wasn't she made queen? But for his special background, the Queen must belong to Wu Huifei. Because Wu Huifei's distant uncle Wu Sansi and distant uncle Wu Yanxiu are both in trouble, and they are all hated by people all over the world; In addition, Huifei has her own son. If she becomes a queen, she will definitely make her son an ambitious prince, shake the status of the prince and make the world uneasy. At Pan's suggestion, Xuanzong was dismissed, and he followed his advice and stopped being a queen.

Although she didn't become a queen, Wu Huifei's goal of making her third son, Li Mao (because the first two sons were dead), ascend to the throne has not changed. So he designed the murder of Prince Li Ying. In her eyes, Li Yao, Li Cong and the prince are close friends, and they all belong to the prince. Wu Huifei decided not to leave one, so as to clean up the future trouble for his son. So she colluded with her confidant Li and her son-in-law Yang Hui.

Wu Huifei didn't get a good ending in the end. In the same year1February, three sons of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty died one after another, and Wu Huifei was as suspicious as a psychopath. From time to time, she exclaimed in the palace that she had seen the ghosts of three people, and her condition became more and more serious. She secretly asked the wizard to do it at night, reburied them, and even killed someone and buried them with them in order to forgive them, but all this was useless. She was soon scared to death by herself, only 38 years old.

The following year, in the 26th year of Kaiyuan (738), Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty changed his third son, Li Gui (later renamed Hengli), to be the Prince. Hui Fei didn't expect her son not only not to be a prince, but also not to keep his wife. Her husband actually chose the wife of his son Li Mao as his concubine to take his place.
