Historically, Xue Jieyu did not leave the palace after Li Yuan's death, but was kept by Li Shimin in the name of "teaching the prince how to govern."
Well, Xue Jieyu was also Li Zhi's teacher. Thinking about it this way, it seems that it can be explained why Li Zhi dared to flirt with Wu Zetian before his father was about to die, that is, in front of his sickbed.
Because Li Zhi may have an Oedipus complex. After all, historically, Li Zhi’s biological mother, the eldest grandson, the Empress, died early, and he did not enjoy much maternal love.
At that time, after the death of Empress Changsun, Li Shimin personally raised two children, Li Zhi and Li Mingda, and his love for licking calves is evident.
However, this also led to Li Zhi not enjoying maternal love very much, so that he later got involved with Wu Zetian, and even with Wu Zetian's sister.
Of course, these are all guesses and cannot be true.
Just like Li Shimin left Xue Jieyu in the palace, some people said that Li Shimin liked this, while others said that Li Shimin wanted to take better care of Xue Jieyu because his confidant Xue Shou died early.
However, who knows whether it is true or false.
But judging from the subsequent history, Xue Jieyu is undoubtedly not that simple.
If the woman Xue Jieyu is a book, then the theme of the content must be romanticism.
Because later, she and Shangguan Yi communicated privately.
It is actually difficult to discern whether this point is true. Because Shangguan Yi offended Wu Zetian at that time, who knows whether Wu Zetian might have framed her.
Li Zhiyun only knew that the Xue Jieyu in front of him was indeed very talented and worthy of being Xue Daoheng's daughter.
In addition, beside Xue Jieyu, there is another Jieyu.
Zhang Jieyu.
This historical concubine of Lao Li was far less unbearable than written in history. Because in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, Lao Li himself could not control the power of the government. How could a woman like Zhang Jieyu control Lao Li?
As for winning the heir, it is a struggle between aristocratic families, and Zhang Jieyu is not qualified to participate. If there is, it may be just a sidekick.
Historically, after the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Zhang Jieyu disappeared.
Because Zhang Jieyu had always been kind to him before, Li Zhiyun treated her well, allowing her to stay in the palace and providing her with food and supplies.
In the past, he always felt that Zhang Jieyu looked at him with a bit of resentment. He didn't understand it at the time. It wasn't until Zhang Jieyu asked him once if he remembered how he saved a girl when he broke into Chang'an in the last years of Daye that he suddenly realized it.
.
It turned out that Zhang Jieyu was that girl.
However, Li Zhiyun could only tell her that he didn't remember anything about this kind of thing.
Zhang Jieyu is very beautiful and has a great figure. Li Zhiyun is not a serious person, but he really has no feelings for Zhang Jieyu.
Moreover, he asked himself whether he could do that kind of thing.
The reason why he accepted Concubine Yin De was because Concubine Yin De was his woman from the beginning, so he naturally had no mental obstacles.
But Zhang Jieyu is different.
Therefore, some things can only be forgotten forever.
After casually chatting with the two concubines and asking them what living expenses they needed, Li Zhiyun left the concubine palace.
Looking at the emperor's back, Zhang Jieyu sighed quietly, feeling more and more uncomfortable in her heart. She will never forget the scene where the heroic young man rode a horse and rescued her. The young man's grace is still with her to this day.
heart.
"Sister, what's wrong?" Xue Jieyu saw that Zhang Jieyu was not in a good mood, so she asked.
Zhang Jieyu shook her head and murmured to herself: "I wish I could see you before I got married."
Xue Jieyu didn't hear what she said clearly and didn't ask again. For them, it was rare to see the emperor once, so they didn't think much about anything else.
Not many people knew about the news of Li Shuliang's resignation. In order to avoid unnecessary fights, Li Zhiyun still let Li Shuliang continue to be the prime minister when he had not decided on the candidate. Although Li Shuliang did not understand this very well, he did not dare to say anything about it.
.
If the minister is not secretive, he will lose his identity.
Li Shuliang still understands this truth.
After nightfall, the emperor stayed overnight in Changle Hall.
There were more and more women in the palace, and it was impossible for Li Zhiyun to get even the rain and dew. He could only say that he would try his best to be happy with every concubine who had ever been lucky to him.
Empress Yang is undoubtedly the most special one, because her status in the emperor's mind is unmatched by other concubines.
"Your Majesty, you seem to be troubled today?" Empress Yang poured the emperor a glass of wine and asked.
Li Zhiyun nodded, but did not deny it. He took a sip from the wine cup and said, "I am thinking about who in the court has the talent to be a prime minister."
Queen Yang smiled lightly, and Bai Mei's eyes moved slightly.
"I can't help your Majesty in this matter."
"Why, with your knowledge, can't you see it?"
"I'm just a stupid woman. I don't have much knowledge. Your Majesty, don't think too highly of my abilities." Empress Yang smiled foolishly, poured another glass of wine for the emperor, and said, "It's not easy for Your Majesty to come to my concubine's place to rest."
, don’t talk about court affairs, so as not to upset you.”
"It's so easy to come to your place?" Li Zhiyun was slightly surprised, and then said: "Didn't I rest here two days ago?"
Hearing this, Queen Yang rolled her eyes at him, rather resentful.
Seeing this, Li Zhiyun coughed dryly.
There were so many women in the palace, how could he know which concubine he slept with two days ago?
"I just want to say it, you just listen. I don't need your opinion." Li Zhiyun sighed: "I know that there are many capable ministers in the court, but I don't know who is the most suitable."
Queen Yang thought: "Your Majesty often says that if you have no way to make a decision, you might as well eliminate the least feasible ones. Then the ones that remain must be feasible. Even if they are not feasible, they are still the best choices."
"You remember clearly." Li Zhiyun chuckled.
"How dare I forget what your Majesty said?"
Li Zhiyun touched his short beard on his chin and pondered slightly.
The most unfeasible ones are naturally the Guanlong people, which he has already excluded. The second one to be excluded is those mediocre people. The third one is those who care about the family.
Thinking of this, Li Zhiyun suddenly had a candidate.
However, once this person enters the political hall, he is afraid that he will not live in peace. Thinking of this, he can't help but sigh. If he wants to be an effective emperor, how can he not be criticized by others.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Queen Yang asked.
Li Zhiyun came back to his senses, looked at the lady's charming face, and smiled slightly.
"I was thinking about how many queens have been comparable to my queen since ancient times. After thinking about it, there is no one who can compare."
"Your Majesty!" Empress Yang scolded: "I am still aware of myself. Not to mention the Queen Mother, even the former Empress of Han Wei, I am not even one ten thousandth of her."
"Hahaha." Li Zhiyun drank down the wine in one gulp, stood up, walked over, and hugged the queen of the world, "I have to reward you tonight."
"Your Majesty..." Queen Yang's eyes were as charming as silk and her voice was trembling shyly.
As her body matured, she became more and more nostalgic for His Majesty the Emperor's muscular body.
After a violent attack, it was already two hours later. Empress Yang fell helplessly into the emperor's arms, with a face full of satisfaction and intoxication.
Her husband was still so violent and unbearable.
The palace maids were in great trouble. They listened to the melodious music for more than two hours. Many of the palace maids even turned red with embarrassment and their legs became weak.
When cleaning the battlefield for the emperor and queen, the bones were all numb.
"Over there at the Dowager Palace, if you have time in the future, you can go and visit and see if there is any shortage of money for the concubines." Li Zhiyun instructed.
Queen Yang opened her eyes like a kitten, with tears still left in the corners of her eyes.
"Your Majesty, I have never shortchanged the expenses of the Imperial Concubine Palace."
"I know, but if you have time, you have to take care of me. After all, you are considered an elder."
