Because she knew that only people with knowledge and self-restraint could attract Li Shimin's attention, she would read a lot of poems. Anyone who has seen Gong Dou's plays knows that harem women can compete for favor by various means. However, there was a very special woman in Li Shimin's harem. Not only did she fail to live up to expectations, but she was also busy studying, and this person was the female emperor Wu Zetian in history.

Wu Zetian was originally Li Shimin's concubine, but she was not favored. But Wu Zetian was full of admiration and admiration for such a wise king as Li Shimin. Only at that time, Li Shimin was a courtier, and although Wu Zetian was beautiful, there was a big age gap between them, so Wu Zetian was not favored. It's just that although Li Shimin doesn't love beauty, it's common for harem women to compete for favor, but Wu Zetian knows that Li Shimin will appreciate those talented women later, so she concentrates on her studies.

Sure enough, the benefits of reading are obvious. By chance, Li Shimin discovered the talent of Wu Zetian. Therefore, Wu Zetian received the attention of Li Shimin for the first time, so she had a chance to be loved. Not only that, but Wu Zetian, who read a lot of poems and books, also increased her knowledge and became more intelligent, so she was able to live tenaciously in the harem and eventually became a female emperor.

Although Wu Zetian originally read in order to win the favor of Li Shimin, she benefited a lot from this book. As the only female emperor in history, Wu Zetian also made many mistakes, but her means of governing the country was really good, which laid the foundation for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. It can be seen that reading is really important for a person, and it is not unreasonable to say that knowledge changes fate. Therefore, it is necessary to read more and be a talented person.
