Princess Taiping
After her mother became the Emperor, Princess Taiping withheld great power regarding politics. The princess decided to be rebellious and remarried to Wu Sansi's cousin, Wu Youji. Wu Youji was kind and harmless, but the princess wasn't content with her life. Wu Youji was known for conducting a special kind of medicine and gained the favor of Wu Zetian. This medicine also led him to have an affair by mistake. He committed suicide out of guilt towards Princess Taiping. After two failed marriages, the widowed princess was disillusioned with her identity.
