My father, Li Shimin, requests Your Majesty to become the Retired Emperor.

"After Princess Yicheng arrived in the Turkic Khaganate, she first married Qimin Khan."

Perhaps it was because Princess Yicheng was too alluring.

Qimin Khan was old and, regardless of whether his body could handle it, spent his days with Princess Yicheng, enjoying intimate moments together.

Not long after, Qimin Khan died.

According to the marriage customs of the Turkic people, when the father died, Princess Yicheng had to marry his son, Shibi Khan.

Shibi Khan had long coveted Princess Yicheng, but he couldn't do so while his father was alive.

now,

"Now that Qimin Khan has passed away, he can be with Princess Yicheng openly and legitimately." Xu Hui said, glancing at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and said, "I didn't expect you to know so much about Princess Yicheng."

"That's natural."

Princess Yicheng received a Confucian education from a young age and found it difficult to accept the idea of ​​remarrying Qimin Khan's son.

However, this is not something she can decide on her own.

She had no choice but to accept it; perhaps she didn't love Shibi Khan in her heart.

However, this period of prosperity was short-lived. Shibi Khan also passed away, and his younger brother, Chuluo Khan, succeeded him.

Chuluo Khan was also captivated by Princess Yicheng's beauty.

After obtaining Princess Yicheng, Chuluo Khan doted on her.

It is said that Chuluo Khan neglected state affairs in order to spend all his time with Princess Yicheng, and he died not long after.

Princess Yicheng felt that her life was too bitter.

She married three men in a row, one father and one son, and all of them died.

At this moment, Princess Yicheng vented all her anger on the Tang Dynasty.

She believed that her tragedy was due to the Tang Dynasty overthrowing the Sui Dynasty, leaving her without any support.

She didn't think Emperor Yang of Sui had done anything wrong.

In her mind, Emperor Yang of Sui was the Son of Heaven, and whatever he did was right.

Therefore, after she married Khagan Jieli, she strongly encouraged him to attack the Tang Dynasty and vowed to be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty to the death.

Perhaps, in the beginning, Khagan Jieli did not intend to invade the borders of the Tang Dynasty.

However, he couldn't resist Princess Yicheng's constant whispers in his ear day and night.

Over time, Khagan Jieli eventually listened to his advice.

Therefore, the iron hooves of the Eastern Turks brought profound disaster to the people of our Great Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin looked north with his hands behind his back: "Yes, from then on, Princess Yicheng was determined to be an enemy of our Great Tang."

At the time, I felt that it was quite difficult for her, as a woman who had married into the Eastern Turkic Khaganate and four men, and had suffered countless humiliations. So I didn't hold it against her.

However, to my surprise, she became even more outrageous.

She strongly urged Jieli Khan to lead his troops south, reaching the heart of the Tang Dynasty and even Chang'an.

That time,

On that occasion, I signed an alliance with Jieli at the Wei River, agreeing to live in peace and not invade each other's territory.

However, soon after, Jieli unilaterally broke the alliance and once again led his troops to invade the borders of the Tang Dynasty.

I could no longer tolerate it, so I ordered Li Jing to lead troops to conquer the Eastern Turks.

To be honest, our Tang Dynasty was in a very difficult situation back then.

However, in order to win that battle, I was willing to go all out and fully support Li Jing.

Of course, Li Jing did not disappoint me; he defeated the Eastern Turks and won over the Khan, Jieli.

Upon hearing this, Xu Hui asked with a smile, "Your Majesty, what about Princess Yicheng?"

Some people say she's incredibly well-preserved and looks very young. Are you also attracted to her beauty?
