Chapter 83 The third quarter Er Xiao Zhengzi

The reign of Shengzong can be said to be the heyday of the Liao Kingdom. However, with the death of Liao Shengzong, the government of the Liao Kingdom immediately fell into chaos.Why is this? Once Shengzong died, the Liao court was in chaos again.why?There was infighting in the palace.The empress of Liao Shengzong is called Brother Xiao Bodhisattva. Because Liao people are Buddhists, her name is often a Buddhist term.This Empress Xiao Bodhisattva is Han Derang's niece and the real niece of Empress Dowager Chengtian Xiao Chuo.The queen is beautiful and talented, and "tastes to use grass weed as a palace style" ("The Empress of the Liao History Biography of the Empress Xiao of Shengzong Rende").To be able to design all kinds of exquisite palaces, she first draws pictures, then takes sticks of grass and sticks to make models of the palaces, and finally lets the craftsmen follow their own designs, without the need for an architect.The empress also designed the emperor's car clothes. The chariot was very beautifully designed, with the whole body gilded, with a dragon head in the front and a phoenix tail in the back, supported by court ladies in white gauze.Especially in spring and summer, wild flowers are blooming on the grasslands and in the valleys. The court ladies in white are pushing such a cart, and the empress sits on it, walking slowly, as if a fairy descended to earth.Therefore, Emperor Shengzong loved the queen very much.The queen was only twelve years old when she entered the palace, not yet at the age of marriage and childbearing, so she gave birth to two sons, both of whom died. When she was nineteen years old, she was made a queen, but she had no biological son.Because the queen had no children, the Empress Dowager Chengtian ordered a maid named Xiao Yujin to serve Liao Shengzong.

Xiao Yujin is an unusual woman. According to historical records: "The dark face stared hard. The mother dreamed that the golden pillar held up to the sky, and the sons couldn't do it if they wanted to. When Hou Jin arrived, she and her servants were all promoted, which is different." Zongqinai Empress Xiao's) It is said that she has a dark complexion and lightning-like eyes, which can startle you when you see her.Her mother once dreamed that a golden pillar of a coiled dragon gushed out from the ground, and Xiao Lujin's brothers climbed up, but couldn't climb up, and all fell down, and Xiao Lujin climbed up with his servants.Therefore, her mother felt that my girl was not an ordinary person, and her love was like a pearl in the palm of her hand.After entering the palace, she was just a maid at first, serving the Empress Dowager Chengtian and cleaning the bed.According to historical records: "Taste the Empress Dowager Chengtian's couch and swallow it with a golden rooster. Her complexion is more radiant. The Empress Dowager said in amazement: 'There must be a strange son!' She has given birth to Xingzong." "Queen Xiao") Once when she was cleaning the bed for Empress Dowager Chengtian, she found a little golden rooster on the bed. She didn't know if it was made of gold or some rare animal called a golden rooster. She grabbed it and ate it.It seems that this person is cruel or greedy. The golden rooster provoked you, so you ate it?After eating the golden rooster, the body changed. The whole body emits golden light, like a Buddha. The eyes used to be able to discharge electricity, but now they emit golden light, which is even more different from ordinary people.When the Empress Dowager Chengtian saw it, she said that this child was extraordinary, that she would definitely be able to give birth to dragon species, and give birth to a son who was different from ordinary people, and immediately ordered her to serve Emperor Shengzong.

Sure enough, Xiao Yujin gave birth to a son, who later became Liao Xingzong Yelu Zongzhen.But after she gave birth to her son, the son was adopted by the queen, who treated the child as her own.Yeluzong really regarded the queen as his own mother, and didn't think it was her adoptive mother.Xiao Yujin's son was adopted by the queen, of course she was very upset.Why does my son call you mother?Although she was conferred the title of concubine Yuan because of her meritorious service in giving birth to the emperor's son, she was a concubine after all, and she was still one rank lower than the empress.She is also from a descendant family, thinking that my family background is no lower than yours. I gave birth to a son and you didn't give birth, so you took my son away.But after thinking about it, since my son has been adopted by the queen, he will definitely become a prince in the future. If he is under my knees, he may not be able to become a prince, so I will bear it.
