Tu Xi had a cunning way of seizing power, not only letting go of the regency many times, but also personally establishing the emperor. Anecdotes about Tu Hi are mentioned a lot in both official history and field history.
According to Sohu, one of them is that the courtesans accidentally discovered that, one evening, Tu Xi summoned the eunuch Li Lianying to serve her to take a shower.

Known as one of the few "red people" who are close to Empress Dowager Tu Xi, the relationship between Ly Lien Anh and this Empress Dowager has long become the subject of discussion not only of the encyclopedia at that time but also for future generations.
However, there are other theories that have been put forward. According to the account of a courtesan, she saw Li Lianying pouring a large amount of blood-red liquid into the bathtub. After that, he began to massage the Empress Dowager. As for Empress Dowager Tu Xi, she sometimes smiles at the guests, sometimes she screams majestically.
It turned out that Empress Dowager Tu Xi often had to sit in one place and rarely moved, so her body had many problems. Therefore, Ly Lien Anh looked for a remedy for her to clear her meridians.
