She picked up a loophole and became the Crown Princess

She became the Crown Princess after picking up a loophole and was posthumously honored as the Empress. Interested readers and history encyclopedia editors, let’s take a look!
During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty, there was a general named Pei Judao (then General Zuo Jinwu, later became Prime Minister during the reign of Emperor Ruizong of Tang). He gave birth to a daughter named Pei Wanying, and there are very few descriptions of her appearance in historical books. It seems that there is not much description of her appearance. The editor speculates that this woman is just an ordinary girl’s appearance, not stunning, but at least she lives carefree after entering the family. It should not be a problem for her to marry into a good family. However, she probably never dreamed that she would become a “spare tire” because the soon to be crown princess was robbed, and she inexplicably picked up a crown princess. The location.
That was in the year 673 AD, when the Pei family reached a turning point in her life. She went from being the daughter of a general to becoming the Crown Princess of the current dynasty. For the Pei family, this could be considered a blessing from heaven, because Emperor Gaozong of Tang once used the phrase “I have no worries about the internal affairs of the Eastern Palace? Isn’t this too disrespectful to the emperor and crown prince? Who is so bold?
Before this, Tang Gaozong selected Yang, the daughter of Yang Sijian, a young official of the Imperial Guard, as the crown princess for Crown Prince Li Hong. However, just as the wedding was approaching, a person was killed on the way. Of course, it could not be Cheng Yaojin, but Helan Minzhi. He saw that Yang was young and beautiful, so he forcibly took over her. Before the prospective crown princess could even enter the palace, someone else snatched her away. Naturally, the crown princess had to be re selected. But who gave He Lanmin the courage to seize the crown princess? The answer is actually very simple. Helan Minzhi is the son of Wu Shun, the sister of Empress Wu Zetian. At that time, Empress Wu Zetian was cultivating her own power. Since there were not many relatives in the Wu family, she naturally wanted to protect Helan Minzhi. Unfortunately, Helan Minzhi was a lecherous person who could not be supported by Adou. However, that was another matter. In short, under Empress Wu Zetian’s protection, Helan Minzhi temporarily escaped danger (later he was killed by Empress Wu Zetian).
In summary, the chaos caused by Helan Minzhi’s appearance has left the entire palace in a state of chaos. However, Pei Shi has benefited from this disaster. Tang Gaozong was helpless and saw that Pei Shi, the daughter of Pei Judao, was good, so he made the decision: “Let her take over.” So Pei Shi became the Crown Princess in such confusion. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Crown Prince Li Hong died suddenly in the second year of Shangyuan, and Pei Shi followed him a year later. Fortunately, after their deaths, they were posthumously honored as Emperor Xiaojing and Empress Ai, and buried in the Tang Gongling Mausoleum.
In fact, for a woman, being born into a family is already considered good. She never competed for favor with anyone in her life, but she found a loophole and became the Crown Princess after being robbed. After her death, she was posthumously honored as the Empress and recognized by later generations. Pei’s luck is really rare.
