Chapter 466: Concubine Yang
In order to find more information, the four of them searched until more than ten o'clock in the evening, and no one said that they wanted to have dinner. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
While everyone was busy rummaging, I became addicted to cigarettes and ran to the door to get over my addiction before coming back. As I passed by the table with a mountain of materials, I noticed that at the bottom of the thread-bound books was a somewhat worn book, which did not seem to be very well preserved.
The book has a blue face and a white background, and a few words are exposed: The Biography of Yang Guifei.
My heart moved, and I said in my heart, how can there be information about Yang Yuhuan here? The information of a historical celebrity like her should not appear in this kind of city-level archives, and I haven't paid attention to keeping it. I thought I wanted to remind the administrator, after all, this kind of information should be more precious.
So I pulled it out, and when I opened the title page, I laughed at myself: Where is this Yang Yuhuan's information, it is clearly one of Li Shimin's concubines! Besides, there have been more concubines in the palace in previous dynasties, and Yang Yuhuan is not the only one with the surname Yang!
Just thinking about it, I inadvertently saw a column of words on it: Zhao Wangfu, born of the concubine!
Zhao Wangfu: Could it be Li Fu? This column immediately aroused my interest, and I quickly looked back.
It turned out that this Yang Guifei was Li Fu's mother, another concubine of Li Shimin, according to records, Li Shimin had two concubines surnamed Yang, one of whom was the daughter of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, known as Concubine Yang in history. The other is Yang Xuanzang's daughter, known as Concubine Yang.
As far as I know, Concubine Da Yang is a legendary woman, her first legend is that she married the emperor of the new dynasty as a princess of the dead country, and her other legend is that she gave Li Shimin the most legendary son - Li Ke, the king of Wu, Li Ke is called a legend because he is very similar to Li Shimin in all aspects, not only heroic and decisive, but also a civil and military all-rounder, but unfortunately died unjustly under the hands of the eldest grandson Wuji.
And Concubine Xiao Yang is indeed Li Fu's biological mother.
She was not a concubine before her death, but a concubine, and she has never been favored by Li Shimin, and she is also unknown among the concubines, and since she gave birth to Li Fu, she has become a little more well-known. And it is precisely because of this that she was posthumously named a concubine after her death.
The content of the book records some of the life of this little Yang concubine, and the content of the record should be made up by her family after her death. There's not much striking about it.
But one of the small pieces caught my attention.
The ancient text is cumbersome and awkward, so I won't quote it here, but only give a general overview of the content.
The above is about an incident about Li Fu when he was a child.
When Li Fu was ten years old, a major event happened in the palace where Concubine Xiao Yang lived.
It is said that Li Fu suddenly disappeared inexplicably in the palace, and the palace maids and eunuchs searched for several days but did not find it.
Although the mother and son did not gain a very respected status, and Concubine Xiao Yang has always belonged to the kind that grandma does not love and grandfather, but Li Fu is Li Shimin's biological son, an upright prince, once something happens to him, he will be relatively big.
At that time, Concubine Xiao Yang could have an accident, but Li Fu could never have an accident.
Seeing that Li Fu had not been found, Concubine Xiao Yang was worried about her son, and secondly, she was afraid that if Li Fu really had an accident, the saint would be furious when she found out, so she immediately blocked the news and ordered the palace maids and eunuchs to look around.
Those palace maids and eunuchs also knew that this matter was related to their own heads, so they all cautiously controlled their mouths, and at the same time searched around the palace and outside the palace, but there was no result.
A few days later, an unrecognizable boy's corpse surfaced in the lotus pond in the palace garden, and everyone in the palace was immediately frightened, especially his mother Yang Guifei, who almost wanted to commit suicide by throwing herself into the well.
When everyone was terrified, Li Fu appeared from behind a rockery, safe and sound, and there was nothing wrong with it. Under questioning, he said that he had sneaked out of the palace to play for a few days.
Fortunately, Concubine Xiao Yang had already blocked the news, and in order to avoid getting into trouble, no one in the palace made any noise, and after they disposed of the body of the nameless boy, it was as if this had never happened.
In fact, things were just as they expected, everything was business as usual, nothing happened.
The only difference is that after Li Fu came back, he seemed to have grown up a lot, and the growth here does not refer to the body, but to the mind. His words and deeds after that were no different from those of an adult.
Probably the case of juvenile and old age existed many times, so no one cared about this problem at that time, except for his mother Yang Guifei.
Li Fu's youth and old age are not a good thing in the end, and once Li Shimin was fortunate to be Concubine Yang for the first time.
He found that his son had changed a lot, because all the princes had to report their father's academic performance from time to time, especially those who were underage, so Li Shimin felt a little strange.
So, he summoned Li Fu to take the test for a while, and the result surprised him.
I haven't seen him for a few months, Li Fuhe was completely like two people before, not only a lot smarter, but also very good at doing things, and he is actually on par with adults, a teenager can understand things that many people don't understand.
Before that, Li Shimin's other sons were fighting to the death for the crown prince, and finally let him depose his eldest son and replace Li Zhi as the crown prince.
In fact, at this time, Li Shimin was not very satisfied with Li Zhi, he still valued Li Ke, the king of Wu who was most like himself, but because of the special identity of Li Ke's mother, he was also afraid of criticism from the ministers, so he had to reluctantly cut his love.
Li Fu's performance at this time made Li Shimin extremely satisfied, so he had more plans in his heart.
Since then, Li Shimin has come to evaluate Li Fu from time to time, and Li Fu's performance has become more and more satisfactory to Li Shimin.
But as Li Fu grew up, Li Shimin found that he was more and more like a person, the brother Li Jiancheng who was killed by him!
When Li Fu was thirteen years old, Li Shimin found that he couldn't resemble Li Jiancheng anymore, which made him suspicious, although Li Jiancheng had been dead for many years when Li Fu was born.
So, he secretly investigated, and as a result, Li Fu's disappearance and the floating corpse in the pond were found out.
Li Shimin was furious, he didn't let him know about such an important matter, especially the floating corpse in the pond, which made him suspect that Li Jiancheng's unjust soul came back to settle accounts with him.
Perhaps because of fear, Li Shimin did not punish Li Fu's mother and son, but succeeded Li Fu to Li Jiancheng, and posthumously crowned Li Jiancheng as the crown prince.
But Li Shimin's health and state have plummeted since then, and within two years, he died of illness and only lived to be 52 years old.
After reading the content, I couldn't help but sigh secretly, I don't care if this is true or not, but since someone dares to comment on Li Shimin like this, it means that he is not the best!
However, judging from the time, Li Shimin died and Li Zhi ascended the throne, Li Fu was indeed exactly fifteen years old, which is compatible with the official history.
As for the psychology and purpose of the authors of this book, it is difficult for me to know the reasons for this.
(Author's note: A novel is a novel after all, please don't sit down according to the history book!)
