She is the most "virtuous" empress of the Great Tang Dynasty, the model for future generations of empresses - Empress Changsun.
Many people because of her virtuous, repeatedly admonished the emperor's story, she felt that she strict stereotypes, lack of interest. But when you think about the style of the Tang Dynasty, she must not have made Li Shimin look at her differently just because she was virtuous.
About Li Shimin love her, I think, Tang Taizong undoubtedly cherish her. First of all, the Sui and Tang dynasties many women, Li Shimin consorts in no shortage of outstanding women of the family, but her position as empress has never wavered; Second, Li Shimin and her eldest son mutiny rebellion was abolished, and another crown prince is only in the son she gave birth to choose; again, after the death of the Empress of the Changsun, Li Shimin often look at the mausoleum of the Zhaoling, silent tears, if only love, not to this; Finally, Li Shimin later the most favorite consort Xu Hui
"Tian Khan" Li Shimin is not only able to get off the horse can write, on the horse can martial arts, but also good at singing and dancing, he created the "King of the Qin broken music", is then famous for large-scale song and dance, hundreds of people jumping, drums and music, the power and softness of the blend of the music with the momentum of jumping and flying, Li Shimin not only command rehearsals, but also personally involved in it, the people with the fun, to create this kind of music, and the people with the music. The people are all enjoying themselves together, creating such a scene requires deep dance and music skills, and is also an example of Li Shimin breaking the usual impression.
Poetry and martial arts, not surprisingly, the most surprising thing is that Li Shimin made a handful of good wine, with personally brewed wine feast ministers to taste, even the winemaker Wei Zheng are asked to teach its secret recipe. Can play amateur into this level, is the attitude of Li Shimin do things.
Li Shimin also has a lot of emotional legends, his distant cousin Princess Yang Fei of the former dynasty, born in the family of heaven married in the family of heaven, a lifetime of life in the court, nobility is extraordinary; his Xiao Zhaorong, Empress of the former dynasty, Yang Fei's nominal mother, his cousin, he fell in love with a glimpse of the incorporation of the harem; his sister-in-law, in the year after the Xuanwumen mutiny, the younger brother died, his sister-in-law stayed on their own side! ...... Although the legend is not credible, but Li Shimin children many undeniable, to his talent identity, the least talented and beautiful people.
However, only the Empress Changsun dared to various admonitions. She married into the Li family at the age of thirteen, from the Qin Wangfu Wangfei to the Tang Palace mother of the world, all the way to bide their time and follow his steps, is a teenage couple, but also childhood sweethearts. They had a tacit understanding, knew each other, did good things and bad things together, trusted each other on the road of no return to imperial power, and gave each other an irreplaceable sense of security, which is a precious relationship that is never found in life. It is the wisdom of the Empress Changsun, so that she has the ability to walk side by side with him to the top, it is mutual trust and cherish each other, so that she dares to straighten out.
The old admonition would not be lovely. Empress Changsun is not stupid or naive, can accompany a man to point out the mountains, but also a group of women in the harem to manage a well-organized, purely virtuous can not be done. She is familiar with the scriptures and history, naturally know the story of Empress Lu, her appearance may not be the most beautiful, but it must be beautiful, born in the aristocracy, a lifetime of pampering, and intelligent mind, have seen the world's most exquisite and grandiose things, temperament is not an ordinary woman can be compared.
Her image was packaged too tight, and Li Shimin Mingjun corresponds to the virtuous queen, molded virtuous, but more one-sided. From two things but see the real her personality is interesting, rich in talent.
One is the poem of Empress Changsun, "Spring Tour Song":
Peach blossoms in the upper garden are bright in the morning, and the beautiful concubines in the orchid room are moving in spring.
The new peaches on the well steal the color of their faces, and the young willows by the eaves learn to be lighter.
The first time I saw this was when I was in the middle of the night, when I was in the middle of the night, when I was in the middle of the night.
The first time I saw this was when I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley, and the first time I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley.
"Orchid Boudoir Yan concubine", the virtuous queen of the poem beautiful in the spirit of playfulness, a breath of fresh air, which is absolutely her true nature.
The second is an incident of Xu Hui. One day, Li Shimin issued an imperial decree calling Xu Hui to come over, Xu Hui returned a poem of resistance to the decree "into the Taizong":
The morning came to the mirror table, makeup, temporarily Pei back.
A thousand kanji were given for a smile, but how can I come when I am called?
Why should I not go when you are summoned by a decree?
This bold poem, with the meaning of gambling and petulance, Li Shimin read it and laughed, not only did not blame, but also immediately went to see her to coax her.
This is the character of Xu Hui, "with the legacy of Changsun", then the Queen of Changsun is not more "bold" than her?
The TV series "Wu Mei Niang Legend" big pen rendering of the "Lanling King Dance", recalling the valiant posture of the Empress of the Changsun, that dance is the plot needs to write, but if you say that the Empress of the Changsun is good at the dance of the British, it really makes sense.
The wisdom of the people is ultimately happy.
Empress Changsun has a reputation for "virtue", but also the ability to guard the heart to do their own, and then how to comment on how to interpret, Li Shimin only called her "a good match", a woman, and their favorite person to go through life, get his respect and love, and get his best everything and can not be changed. Get his best everything and untouchable, get his memory of the heart, enough.
