It is often said that "men should get married, and women should get married", which reminds us of the importance of marriage. After all, "Candle Night in the Cave Room" has always been a beautiful moment that people look forward to and look forward to, as one of the three major events in life.
In the feudal society in the past, people followed the "orders of their parents, the words of matchmakers", and generally got married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, which was in line with the concept of "starting a family and starting a business" at that time.
If women are not married at this age, they will be ridiculed by others as "old leftover women", as we now call "old leftover women".
Life is like the moon, there are clouds and sunny days, and everyone's situation is different. As the protagonist of today's story, Rongguo's wife Yang, she is Wu Zetian's biological mother and the mother of China's first female emperor.
Yang Peony's life is full of magic, she only got married at the age of 44, and gave birth to Wu Zetian, the first emperor of the ages, and also has two excellent sons-in-law Li Shimin and Li Zhi.
Although her children have achieved extraordinary achievements, Yang Peony herself is also famous for it. "
The Yang family was born in a famous family, and his father Yang Da was the prime minister of the Sui Dynasty, and his family was prominent. His uncle was Yang Xiong, the king of the Sui Dynasty. Although Yang was supposed to be the daughter of a nobleman and had outstanding beauty in her youth, there were very few people in the family who came to propose marriage.
Perhaps it is because Yang has extremely high standards for mate selection.
Time flies, time flies, for decades, this woman has gone through countless choices and waiting, and now she is 44 years old and is about to enter middle age. Watching the years pass in a hurry, she also began to feel anxious.
However, fate is sometimes so wonderful, and at this point in time, her life took a turn for the better. It turned out that in this year, the general Wu Shi, who followed Tang Gaozu Li Yuan's southern expedition to the north, unfortunately lost his wife, and he has always had a plan to continue.
As Li Yuan's confidant, he has always been concerned about Aijiang's marriage. So, under the guidance of her cousin Li Yuan, this middle-aged woman married the mighty, brave and warlike samurai Ji, and became his continuation.
Despite Yang's inner resistance, the emperor's order could not be disobeyed, and she had to marry the warrior Tong, because disobeying the holy decree would be seen as disrespectful to the emperor, which was not to be joked about.
The 44-year-old Yang eventually married Wu Shitong and gave birth to three daughters, of which Wu Zetian was her second daughter.
Everyone knows that Wu Zetian has a merry nature, but what few people know is that this character is what she inherited from her mother Yang. After Wu Zetian took power, the Yang family also enjoyed all the glory, although the warrior Yan has passed away, but the Yang family is over sixty years old, but he still loves life, and there are many young people at home.
Even according to historical records, when Yang was in his 80s, he still maintained an unclear relationship with his grandson Helan Minzhi.
Yang, as Wu Zetian's predecessor, was physically stronger than her, and lived until he died at the age of 92. Although she did not see Wu Zetian as the emperor, her funeral was still very grand.
Since Wu Shiyan has been posthumously crowned as the king, Yang's funeral followed the specifications of the princess, and many court ** and nobles came to attend her funeral, and there were countless funeral goods.
