It is said that Her Majesty the Queen is going to have a beauty pageant again. Of course, it is said. However, many people responded to the call.An official solemnly recommended his son on the grounds that the boy was fair and clean and had delicate features.Another official recommended himself, openly claiming that the sex organs are majestic and powerful.This incident caused a lot of ups and downs in the government and the public, and most of the discussions in the streets were unsavory.So an admonisher named Zhu Jingze thought he had to say something. An admonisher is also called a speech officer, and his duty is to give advice to the emperor, just as the duty of a Taiwan official is to supervise officials.This system existed in the Qin and Han Dynasties, but it was most complete and effective in the Tang and Song Dynasties.One of the reasons why Wei Zheng was able to constantly correct Tang Taizong's mistakes was that he had served as an admonisher for a long time.Therefore, no matter how low the rank of an admonisher is, they have a lot of voice and influence, even though they can only criticize.

Zhu Jing is the admonisher of Zhongshu Province, his position is Youbuque, and his rank is from the seventh rank, which is equivalent to the deputy county level.However, the problem is not the level of status, but the difficulty of speaking.It's hard to say and it's not because it's about private life.We know that under the institutional framework of "family and country as one", the royal family is the country.Therefore, as the lord of the world and the head of the empire, the emperor theoretically has no private life.If he marries a wrong person or indulges excessively, everyone from the prime minister to the admonisher has the right to object.

It's a pity that the current sage is a woman. A woman became the head of state, and the history of other nations is endless.Egypt had it, the Roman Empire had it, later Britain and Russia had it, and then Japan and Korea also had it.The Chinese Empire has never made any ideological preparations or institutional design for a woman to be emperor, so Her Majesty's sex life has become a problem. This problem is not available to male emperors, because there are institutional guarantees.The system of the Tang Dynasty stipulated that in addition to the queen, there were four concubines, nine concubines (read as Rupin), Jiu Jieyu (read as Jieyu), nine beauties, nine talents and so on.Generally speaking, this is enough, not to mention that he can still choose, change people, or even expand enrollment, just like Emperor Wu of Jin.

The lady is not a big problem either.Widowed spouses can remarry, and can even openly ask for a sexual partner.Princess Shanyin of the Liu Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty once said to her younger brother: Your Majesty and I are the flesh and blood of the late emperor. Your Majesty has thousands of people in the harem, but my sister and I have only one son-in-law. This is too unfair.As a result, the younger brother of the emperor chose thirty young, beautiful and strong men to serve as bedding for her, known as face heads. Unfortunately, this does not apply to the Queen. The queen cannot remarry.After remarrying, who will be the emperor?She also cannot canonize queens and concubines unless she has homosexual tendencies.As for male concubines, it is unprecedented and unheard of.The problem is, the queen can't live without sex.If you don't even have this, how can you be called the Ninth Five Supreme?It's inhumane to say the least.

I had no choice but to have an affair. The affair was semi-public, and the first lover was Xue Huaiyi.This guy was originally a gangster who sold dog skin plasters on the streets of Luoyang, and his original name was Feng Xiaobao.Because of his burly and muscular body, he was spotted by Princess Qianjin, the daughter of Emperor Gaozu, and recommended to the queen after a trial.The recommendation is: Xiaobao is very useful and can be a close servant. At this time, although the empress was still the empress dowager in name, she was actually the king of the country who ruled the country, and her puppet emperor certainly couldn't control this matter.Although His Majesty himself is over sixty years old, he still has a strong sexual desire.After being a widow for two years, getting such a man is really a long drought and rain, and he doesn't care about his status at all.However, in order to deceive others, she still asked Feng Xiaobao to change his name to Xue Huaiyi and become a monk, because monks and Taoist priests can freely enter and leave the harem under the pretext of religious activities.

Of course, dedicating oneself to the empress would be richly rewarded, and the fake monk Xue Huaiyi immediately became a hot figure, domineering and domineering.It's a pity that this uneducated street rogue has forgotten, or simply doesn't know, that traditional Chinese culture is about status.Although Xue Huaiyi won the empress's favor in bed, he was not officially conferred male concubine.Therefore, when he was openly arrogant and rude to Prime Minister Su Liangsi, he was pushed to the ground by the bailiff in the government hall and slapped dozens of times. Xue Huaiyi fled into the palace and cried to his lover, but the future queen and the current queen mother were not furious.She just smiled and said: Hehe, mage, you can go through the back door in the future!The front door is the territory of the prime ministers, and should not be offended.

Public is public, private is private, the old lady's heart is like a mirror. Of course, Su Liangsi was fine. Instead, a supervisory official named Wang Qiuli wrote to the court, requesting that Xue Huaiyi's genitals be cut off to ensure "the chastity of the court ladies."Undoubtedly, the Queen Mother also laughed at this. The sexual relationship between the fake monk and the empress lasted about ten years, and finally ended with Xue Huaiyi's untimely death.This guy was probably killed by the Queen, probably because he was both tired of providing sexual services and jealous.Of course, this cannot be tolerated by His Majesty who already has a new love.In short, this person has become a dead dog after doing all the bad things, and no one in the ruling and opposition parties expressed sympathy.

The queen's attitude is the same. In fact, two years later, she had two more fresh meat, brothers Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong.The two brothers are only in their twenties, and the queen is seventy-three years old.However, His Majesty's interest has not diminished at all.Perhaps, because her ex-husband Emperor Gaozong was ill for a long time, the quality of her sex life was very doubtful, and a lot of good times were actually wasted.Now, since the empire is already her world, and her sexual ability has been developed by Xue Huaiyi, of course she will enjoy her old age in peace. The Zhang brothers were able to enter the palace through Princess Taiping, but it is not known whether they have been tried beforehand.The general situation is: Her Majesty's good girl recommended Zhang Changzong to his mother very intimately, and Zhang Changzong recommended his brother Zhang Yizhi on the grounds that the elder brother's organs are more magnificent and he is also proficient in sexual intercourse.

The queen readily accepted. This is a lover with a completely different style.The fake monk Xue Huaiyi is a vulgar and muscular man, and the Zhang brothers are handsome boys with good looks, and they are versatile in singing and dancing, so they are called Goro and Liulang.At that time, a sycophant who was ridiculed by the public as a "two-legged wild fox" once praised them like this: Everyone said that Liu Lang was as beautiful as a lotus flower, but in my opinion, the lotus flower should be as beautiful as Liu Lang. It seems that the queen wants to change her taste, and she has a lot of appetite.

Zhu Jingze also had reasons for criticism, and his guiding ideology was the golden mean advocated by Confucianism.He said that love between men and women is normal, and the key is to have a degree of relaxation.His Majesty already has Xue Huaiyi, Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong, so he should be satisfied.It is really incomprehensible that everyone recommends themselves with sexual ability like now, and forgives the stupidity of the ministers.The duty of a foolish minister is to speak out, and he dare not not play. The queen smiled lightly: really?If you hadn't said it bluntly, I wouldn't know.

So he rewarded Zhu Jingze heavily, and later made him prime minister. Hehe, the queen is not confused, because she is Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian can be said to be unprecedented, and even her title is unique.That's right, her surname is Wu, but her first name is not Zetian.The latter is her honorary title-"Zetian Dasheng Emperor" after she abdicated, and "Zetian Dasheng Empress" after her death.Adding the surname to the honorary title becomes "Wu Zetian". This is equivalent to calling Tang Taizong Li Taizong and Tang Minghuang Li Minghuang, which are neither fish nor fowl.But there is no way, because she cannot be called "Zhou Zetian".The Zhou Dynasty she established was not only denied by others, but even she herself had to give up in the end.Similarly, we cannot call her "Tang Zetian", because "Zetian Dasheng Emperor" belongs to Wu Zhou, not Li Tang. As for her own name, Wu Zhao, she almost never uses it.Because when she was qualified to invent such a strange word, no one dared to call her by her name.Of course she didn't need it herself.At that time, she called herself "Zhen". Also had to call "Wu Zetian". But even that is problematic.Wu Zetian, is it the emperor of Zetian, the queen of Zetian, or the queen mother of Zetian?All, not all, not only.In fact, for orthodox historians, she is a troublemaker.The troubles created are far more than lovers or names, but the entire system and procedures are disrupted. This is of course because she is the emperor as a woman.In fact, there is no shortage of female rulers in the Chinese Empire, but the Empress Lu before and Empress Cixi afterward were all female lords rather than empresses.The queen is only Wu Zetian, and only her era can produce queens.So the question is clear: why did she become emperor?

Notes: Volume two hundred and three, November of the first year of Chuigong. Volume two hundred and three, June of the second year of vertical arch. Volume two hundred and five days, long live the first year of February.It is uncertain whether Wu Zetian has a new lover at this time. It is generally guessed that her new lover is the imperial doctor Shen Nanqiu. Please refer to Lin Yutang and Lei Jiaji's "Wu Zetian Biography". It is tied to the July article of the fourth year of Wu Zetian's Chang'an. : "Only Heaven is the greatest, only Yao is the greatest." However, even this title was changed several times by later emperors, such as "Queen of Heaven", "Queen of Great Sage", "Queen of Holy Emperor" and so on.In the ninth year of Kaiyuan (721), the author Lang Wujing compiled "Zetian Shilu", and began to use the word Zetian to refer to this woman who is both a queen and an emperor in general.After Mr. Chen Yinke used the title of "Wu Zetian" in "Tang Dynasty Political History Commentary", Wu Zetian became her most common title.
