Later, after Tang Ruizong succeeded to the throne, Princess Yu Zhen lived a normal life, but the shadow of her childhood was always lingering. In addition, as a teenager, she also knows that people's hearts are sinister, especially the power struggle in the palace, so she also has a fear of the deep palace. Perhaps because she was imprisoned since she was a child, she thought about the reasons for living a free life. She gradually got an idea? Out of the palace into the Tao? Later, she simply abandoned the princess status and became a female Taoist without hesitation. You know, in the Tang Dynasty, a female Taoist had a bad reputation at all, and as a princess, she dared to be a Taoist. You can imagine how brave she is.
However, the facts also prove that Princess Yu Zhen's choice is right, at least historically, her ending is also the best, because both Princess Taiping and other princesses are mostly killed because of power or forced to marry someone they don't love. Not only did she live safely to the age of 72, but her love life was not restricted by entering Taoism. On the contrary, her emotional experience is quite rich, which also involves two great poets in Tang Dynasty: Li Bai and Wang Wei.
She is a princess with a special temperament. So there are rumors that she had feelings with Wang Wei and Li Bai. The most popular ones are her and Li Bai. Li Bai is a good official. When he sees Princess Yu Zhen, he will definitely catch it. More interestingly, some people say that Princess Yu Zhen gave birth to two children when she was unmarried. As for the father of the child, there is no direct explanation, only that she is a famous poet, but in any case, there is only one thing that is proved, that is, Princess Yu Zhen really became a Taoist and really lived the life she wanted. The rest are just rumors, and there is no way to verify whether it is true or not.
