   I think Queen Mother Li (real name Li Yuyao) is very pitiful. The most criticized thing about her is that she treats her eldest grandson Xingchen badly. But the cause of the matter was that "the wise concubine was jealous of her behavior and angered the late emperor. The late emperor deliberately pointed Li Yuyao, who was standing by her side, to sleep with her all night." She was completely forced at the time, which meant that the late emperor's behavior was rape. The eldest grandson Xingchen was actually the son of an adulterer, so she naturally had no obligation to raise the child. "Abusing the eldest grandson Xingchen" was Li Yuyao taking the blame for the late emperor, and she had to face the helplessness of a child living with an enemy. It is really unreasonable to force women to treat their adulterous children well. Li Yuyao's suffering has been severely underestimated. It is very painful for a woman to give birth. She has to experience morning sickness, severe labor pains, and even birth injuries, not to mention all kinds of bullying, lack of food and clothing, and mental stress.
