As mentioned earlier, Wu Zetian used Li Zhi's favor and trust in her, not only to dictate power, manipulate the government, cultivate party henchmen, but also monopolize the house pet, and let the emperor Li Zhi, who has three thousand beauties in the harem, become her man alone. The harem is full of Wu Zetian's eyeliner, no matter which concubine or palace maid Li Zhi is fortunate to be in the palace, after Li Zhi leaves, the concubines and palace maids who are fortunate by Li Zhi are immediately killed by Wu Zetian.

In order to fight her opponent Xiao Shufei, Queen Wang used Wu Zetian to reduce Li Zhi's favor for Xiao Shufei, and persuaded Li Zhi to take Wu Zetian, a monk in Ganye Temple, back to the palace. Wu Zetian was originally a talented person of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and was three years older than Li Zhi. Wu Zetian's personality is too strong, he entered the palace at the age of fourteen, and he was glamorous and overwhelmed, and won a certain degree of love from Li Shimin, but Li Shimin didn't like Wu Zetian's personality and never crowned Wu Zetian. By the time of Li Shimin's death (649 AD), Wu Zetian had been in the palace for eleven years, and he was only a talented person. According to the Tang system, after the death of the emperor, the concubines who did not give birth had to go to the Ganye Temple to become monks. Wu Zetian also went to Ganye Temple to become a monk.

During Li Shimin's serious illness, Li Zhi and Wu Zetian took care of Li Shimin in front of Li Shimin's sickbed. If there was no queen to persuade Li Zhi to live happily, don't care what others say, and go to Ganye Temple to pick up Wu Zetian and return to the palace, Li Zhi would only miss Wu Zetian in his dreams, and dare not do anything to rob his deceased father's concubine, risking the world's disapproval.

After Wu Zetian arrived at the palace, he was very respectful to Queen Wang at first, and Queen Wang liked Wu Zetian very much and often praised Wu Zetian in front of Li Zhi. Li Zhi had a headache with Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu's competition for favor, and soon favored Wu Zetian, and Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shufei fell out of favor at the same time. The two complained to Li Zhi about Wu Zetian's situation together, but Li Zhi ignored it. Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu regretted competing for favor, but it was too late.

Wu Zetian was scheming, pretending to be docile to Li Zhi before gaining power, Li Zhi loved Wu Zetian very much, so he abolished the position of queen with his wife Wang and renamed Wu Zetian as queen.

After that, Li Zhi listened to Wu Zetian's words and sent Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu into the cold palace. Wu Zetian imprisoned Empress Wang and Concubine Xiao Shufei in the cold palace for a few years, and was worried that Li Zhi would change his mind about them and reconcile with them, so he bought the Shang Palace of the cold palace, poisoned the food of Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu, poisoned them, and declared that he died of illness to the outside world.

After Wu Zetian had power, his strong nature was exposed, he was no longer docile to Li Zhi, she had to call the shots in everything, and also restricted Li Zhi's freedom of action, Li Zhi wanted to personally conquer Goguryeo, Wu Zetian did not allow it, the Yellow River flooded, the victims were displaced, and life was difficult, Li Zhi wanted to go to the disaster area to inspect, Wu Zetian did not allow it, Li Zhi wanted to take advantage of his youth to tour the world and observe the people's feelings and public opinions, Wu Zetian disagreed, Li Zhi wanted to go to the army to see and inspect the army's combat readiness and training, Wu Zetian still disagreed, saying that the emperor could not favor one over the other, Inspect this army, not that army, the Tang Dynasty army is hundreds of thousands, scattered all over the country, with Li Zhi's physical condition, can you check it.

This is just Wu Zetian's excuse, her original intention was not to want Li Zhi to move around the army and the people diligently, establish prestige and a close image to the people, he had better stay in the palace honestly, be a puppet emperor, and not go anywhere, so that the army and the people forget his existence. The lower Li Zhi's prestige, the more conducive it was for Wu Zetian to control the government.

Wu Zetian has a strong personality, improper heart, cruel and ruthless, after Li Zhi saw Wu Zetian's nature, he began to hate Wu Zetian, and missed the good of Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu. But Li Zhi's lost power can no longer be recovered, and the two concubines who were once loved by Li Zhi can never come back, so they are depressed and indulge in women's sex, not Lin Xingwu Zetian, but Lin Xing's other concubines and palace maids.

But Wu Zetian not only controlled the government, but also controlled the harem, and her eyeliner was everywhere in the harem. Li Zhi's concubines and concubines all "died of illness" inexplicably, and the palace maids of Linxing were beaten to death by Wu Ze's angels, so Li Zhi had to stop the concubines and palace maids, and deliberately fabricated charges to expel his favorite concubines from the palace and send them to the palace outside Beijing.

Wu Zetian has an older sister who was named Mrs. Korea and often goes to the palace to visit Wu Zetian. Li Zhi gradually became familiar with Mrs. Han, so he pampered Mrs. Han. Li Zhi thought to himself: "Wu Zetian, I am fortunate to be your own sister, see if you are vicious enough to kill your own sister?" If you kill the best, I can avenge Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu, as well as the countless unjust souls in the harem! ”

Wu Zetian was very unhappy when he knew that Li Zhi had committed adultery with Mrs. Han, but he didn't show it, and the two sisters still corresponded normally.

Li Zhi put on a big wedding wine in the palace, marrying Princess Xuancheng, the daughter of the queen and Princess Yiyang, the daughter of Concubine Xiao Shu, all the princes and generals, ministers, and nobles in Chang'an and the vicinity came to drink the wedding wine of the two princesses, and all the people in the palace attended the wedding banquet of the two princesses, including the palace guards, concubines, palace maids and eunuchs, only Wu Zetian refused to attend the wedding banquet of the daughter of the enemy Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu.

Mrs. Han was not Li Zhi's rightful concubine, but Li Zhi's good friend and Chang'an's noble lady also attended the wedding banquet of the two princesses held in the palace. Mrs. Han felt abdominal pain shortly after returning home after the wedding banquet, and when Li Zhi got the news and rushed to Mrs. Han's mansion with the imperial doctor, Mrs. Han was already dead.

Li Zhi was very sad, the wedding banquet for marrying the princess was organized by Li Zhi and Mrs. Han together, Wu Zetian had never been to the scene of the wedding banquet at all, even if Li Zhi suspected that Wu Zetian had poisoned Mrs. Han, but he couldn't find evidence, and he was helpless against Wu Zetian. More than 5,000 people attended the wedding banquet, and everyone was suspected of committing a crime, and it was not easy to find out the real culprit.

On that day, Li Zhi was immersed in the grief of losing his Korean wife, and no one dared to tell Li Zhi that Princess Xuancheng and Princess Yiyang were kidnapped on the way to get married, and then eloped with their savior, so as not to add fuel to the fire.

Wu Zetian quarreled with her own son, Li Hongda, the crown prince of the dynasty, on the same day, and tasted the feeling of exhaustion that he had not encountered for many years.

Wu Zetian is forty-nine years old, Mrs. Han is Wu Zetian's sister, how can she be in her fifties, but looking at what Wu Zetian once fascinated Li Zhi into, and how sad Li Zhi was after Mrs. Han died, Xu Qing knew that Mrs. Han must have been a beautiful woman who captivated the country and the city when she was young.

Xu Qing came to Chang'an with the intention of saving Mrs. Han's daughter Helan Minyue at the same time, and by the way, find a way to rescue Mrs. Han. But I don't know if it is because of the "butterfly effect" caused by Xu Qing's travel through time and space, or if there is a parallel time and space, and what happens in this time and space is a little different from what happened in that time and space recorded in the history books. In the history books, it is said that Wu Zetian sent someone to bring food to Mrs. Han, and the husband was poisoned and died after eating it. But that's not the case.

Mrs. Han is dead, according to historical records, her daughter Helan Minyue suspects that Wu Zetian secretly poisoned people and killed her mother, in order to avenge the murder of her mother, she will definitely confuse Li Zhi, hoping to get Li Zhi's favor, so as to gain power, and eventually she will be killed by Wu Zetian.

This regrettable tragedy will happen soon, Xu Qing's sense of urgency has never been so strong at this moment, he can't take care of abducting the two princesses of the dynasty, and she is a princess on the way to get married, and offended Li Zhi and Wu Zetian at the same time, making Li Zhi lose face, and Wu Zetian losing the opportunity to kill the enemy's daughter, or leading Zhao Mengchen, Zhao Tuozhi, Nie Hu, Jia Quan The four masters and a company of the new army bodyguards, as the son-in-law of King Yan, the county lord of Anguo, the county lord of Anbang, and the county horse of the county lord of the Shame Flower County, and the head of the Longmen Dart Bureau went to the Korean Lady's Mansion to mourn, I saw the stunning beautiful girl who captivated the country and the city, fifteen-year-old Helan Minyue.

Xu Qing's identity has been exposed, there is no need to keep it secret, it is better to show his identity, King Yan is Li Zhi's half-brother and henchman, maybe Li Zhi will not only not blame Xu Qing, but will also open up to Xu Qing and not pursue him for abducting the two princesses.

And after Wu Zetian learned of Xu Qing's identity, if he wanted to move Xu Qing, he had to consider Xu Qing's own strength and the backer behind Xu Qing, King Yan. Unless Wu Zetian was sure that she could defeat King Yan and Xu Qing with lightning speed, she would have to beware of King Yan and Xu Qing joining forces to fight back.

Although the Tang army was brave and good at fighting, it was not a joke to fight with Tibet on the western front, with the secret support of the Goguryeo and Baekje rebels and Silla on the eastern front, and at the same time with the combined forces of King Yan and Xu Qing on the central front.

Xu Qing played a dangerous move, if she didn't play well, she would be surrounded and suppressed by Wu Zetian's army, and if she played well, she would deter Wu Zetian and make her dare not act rashly. Xu Qing yesterday had already sent people to send a message to the Luoyang Branch, Taiyuan Branch, and Youzhou Headquarters of the Longmen Dart Bureau, ordering the Chang'an Branch to increase the number of troops, and as long as it was delayed for a few days, the strength of the Chang'an Branch of the Longmen Dart Bureau could be multiplied and the crisis could be dealt with more certainly.
