Conquered Wu Zetian with talent, defeated Tang Zhongzong with talent, but still could not escape the tragic ending

Facts have proved that true talent cannot be hidden no matter how hard you hide it. No matter where you are hiding, someone will come over to catch you out and make you bling, bling, shine.

There are not many talented women in history. As a generation of talented women, they are full of talents and can stand at the pinnacle of power. I am afraid that there will never be another person who is proud of the heroes.

Some people think she is Wu Zetian, but no, although she is a domineering president, she is a straight woman and has a little talent.

Because Wu Zetian had to sing conquest in front of her.

What I want to talk about is Shangguan Wan'er, an extremely talented woman.

In 664 AD, the Shangguan family was rounded up by officers and soldiers. All the men were killed and exiled. The maid was arrested and sent to serve in Yeting. That year, Shangguan Wan'er was only one year old. His childhood was destined to be gloomy. He lost his father's love and most of his family members. At an age when he should have enjoyed himself, he had to endure heavy labor and bullying from the people in Ye Ting.

The Shangguan family was a very prominent family at the time. However, it was only because of the fact that her grandfather Shangguan Yi supported Gaozong to depose Wu that he survived. The emperor at that time was Li Zhi, a maniac who doted on his wife. Shangguan Yi was tricked by Wu Zetian. , even if his position as prime minister is not guaranteed, he will also lose his own life. His son Shangguan Tingzhi was executed, and his granddaughter Shangguan Waner was killed because her mother Zheng was the sister of Taichang Shaoqing Zheng Xiuyuan. The two of them were spared death and were sent to Yeting.

Zheng Shi and Shangguan Wan'er went from being the family members of a noble family with no worries about food and clothing to being slaves at their will overnight. What they didn't know was how much energy was hidden in that swaddled little girl.

Shangguan Wan'er often heard about the deeds of her grandfather Shangguan Yi from her mother. His "Shangguan Style" was imitated by the world and was praised by others.

So Shangguan Wan'er began her hard-working career in Yeting. At that time, there was a school in Yeting, which was a school in Yeting and was responsible for teaching the women in Yeting to learn classics and history. , singing and dancing, etc.

After working, Shangguan Wan'er and the palace maids participated in studies here. Her mother came from a famous family and had a family of poems and books. She taught her daughter very strictly and carefully.

Shangguan Wan'er inherited her grandfather's excellent talent genes. Every time she recited poems and composed poems, she was praised endlessly.

Someone recited his poems in the palace, and news of her outstanding talent finally reached Wu Zetian's ears. In 677, Wu Zetian summoned Shangguan Wan'er and asked her to test her. Shangguan Wan'er was not good at writing. After adding some points, it took only a moment to complete, and the writing is smooth, the words are gorgeous, and the language is beautiful. It really seems to have been composed long ago.

Wu Zetian liked this girl very much and immediately pardoned her and let her take charge of the imperial edicts in the palace.

From then on, Shangguan Wan'er started her own Du Lala promotion story, from being an intern to being officially admitted as a full employee.

Not long after, he was promoted to the position of examiner. She became a veritable heroine prime minister. It turned out that the only thing missing from her transformation from a little slave in Yeting to a prime minister with less than one person and more than ten thousand people was talent.

Just relying on the excellent genes she inherited, she easily turned over and walked sideways in the palace.

Maybe it was because she had too much power, but Shangguan Wan'er started to feel a little arrogant. She actually dared to disobey Boss Wu and deserved death!

Wu Zetian was very angry but couldn't bear to kill her, so he gave her a knife, made a small cut on her face and sprinkled some ashes, sparing her life, but Wan'er's appearance was disfigured.

It is said that talented people are different. If it were a disfigured woman, she would hide deep in her boudoir and refuse to go out for fear of being laughed at. Fortunately for her, she drew a plum blossom on the wound. Not only did the scar not affect her appearance, but it actually added a bit of beauty, and the plum blossom makeup became popular in the palace for a while.

In 705, Wu Zetian was forced to abdicate, and Zhongzong Li Xian ascended the throne.

Wu Zetian admired Shangguan Wan'er, and Zhongzong was no exception. He liked this kind of thoughtful and story-telling woman.

He was impressed by her talent. Soon after She was named Zhaorong, and her mother was named Mrs. Peiguo. His grandfather, Shangguan Yi, who died unjustly, was also posthumously awarded the title of Zhongshu Ling, the Governor of Qinzhou, and the title of Duke of Chu.

Relying on his talents, he gradually rose from an intern to a domineering vice president. Not only did he achieve financial freedom, but he also made his family famous.

Zhongzong was very interested in reciting poems and composing poetry, and held reading groups many times.

One time when Emperor Zhongzong visited the Kunming Pool, his ministers were asked to compose more than a hundred poems. Emperor Zhongzong ordered Shangguan Wan'er to choose one as an imperial composition. Wan'er sat in the building and composed the poems that had not been chosen. Throwing them down from upstairs, the officials gathered downstairs, each bending down to pick up his unsuccessful works. The poems were thrown down one by one like snowflakes, and in the end only Shen Quanqi's poems remained.

Think about the scene at that time, leaning in front of a tall building, poems flying all over the sky. The quality is decided by Wan'er alone. What an honor it is for the person who wins the crown.

This is the famous "Wan'er Poetry Review". He has commented on the world's poetry from dynasty to dynasty and weighed scholars. I believe that her grandfather, Shangguan Yiquan, will be very pleased if he has knowledge.

But the higher you are in a high position, the less you can be alone. This is the case with Shangguan Yi, and the same is true with his granddaughter Shangguan Wan'er. In 710, Empress Wei wanted to imitate Wu Zetian and control the entire country. She managed to poison Zhongzong in an attempt to The government listens to the government.

Although Wan'er was on the right team at the critical moment, she was still not spared.

In 710, Li Longji and Princess Taiping conspired to kill Wei Shi, and Shangguan Wan'er was arrested. Princess Taiping proved that Shangguan Wan'er was on their side, but Li Longji raised his sword and fell. I don’t want to say any more nonsense.

Shangguan Wan'er survived as a victim in the struggle for her grandfather's power, but in the end, her tragic and beautiful life ended in the second power struggle.

The last bloodline of the Shangguan family ended here.

But the world remembers them.

After Shangguan Wan'er's death, the court took pity on her talent, restored her reputation, and sorted out her legacy.

Zhang Shuo commented on her in the preface to the collection: "She is brilliant in speaking, unparalleled in talent, sensitive in hearing, and able to look into the mirror..."

Shangguan Wan'er and him The "Shangguan Style" created by my grandfather influenced the writing style of the entire dynasty and was praised by later generations.

In that dynasty where turning one's hands into clouds and turning one's hands into rain, if you want to protect yourself, only rights are the best talisman.

Some people say that she plays political tricks, harms the country and the people, and disrupts the political order.

Some people say that she is talented, understanding and lives a free and easy life.

The evaluation of the world is not important at all,

What is important is that she left behind
