萧昭业
He Jingying was known for her adulterous activities, as she had on affairs with others while she was princess. The most known affair she carried out was with Xiao Zhaoye's attendant Yang Min (楊珉): it was said that they spent day and night together, just like husband and wife. However, He Jingying was also very loving in her relationship with Xiao Zhaoye and they had a happy marriage, and so Xiao Zhaoye turned a blind eye to the affair. Some historians indicate that there could have also been a sexual relationship between Xiao Zhaoye and Yang Min, suggesting a ménage à trois. In 493, after Crown Prince Zhangmao died, Xiao Zhaoye became crown prince; Princess He became crown princess. Outwardly, he mourned his father's death and was worried about his grandfather Emperor Wu's health, as Emperor Wu was also in ill health at the time, but when he wrote to the Crown Princess, he wrote one large character of "Xi" (喜, meaning "happiness") surrounded by 36 smaller "Xi" characters.
