There is a folk saying: "A woman can hold up half of the sky." Women play an important role in both family relations and social contributions.
During the ancient feudal dynasties, men were respected and women were humbled, men could have three wives and four concubines, and women needed to marry and teach their children and take care of household chores.
With the development of society and the progress of ideas, the status of women is increasing in contemporary times and has become an indispensable social force.
There are many heroines in Chinese history, such as Mulan, who was brave and good at war on the battlefield and served in the army for her father.
Or for the sake of peace between the two countries, the people were stable and took the initiative to be friendly, and did not hesitate to leave their hometown Princess Wencheng and Wang Zhaojun.
In the Qing Dynasty, there were also such heroes, but not on the battlefield but in the korean situation, she was the famous Empress Xiaozhuang in history.
However, Empress Xiaozhuang, who was surprised by the storm, also had her own helplessness, and the last two women in her life, one was Hai Lanzhu, who stole her husband, and the other was Dong Efei, who stole her son.
Xiaozhuang's original name was Burbutai, and some people called her Da Yu'er, and it was rumored that she was a pearl on the grassland and a rare beauty.
In addition to her appearance, the most eye-catching is Xiaozhuang's family lineage, she was born in the Horqin steppe, and her grandfather was Horqin Belle Min'an.
Her mother's main chamber, Fu Jin, unlike ordinary concubine children, determined her unparalleled honorable status as soon as she was born.
When She was 13 years old, Xiaozhuang married the then Emperor Taiji, the eighth son of the Emperor, to be a side Fujin, and the reason she did so was not just because of love.
In fact, long before Xiaozhuang and Huang Taiji got married, Huang Taiji had already married Xiaozhuang's aunt Zhezhe to be the Great Fu Jin, and her aunt's life was enough to match.
After the helpless marriage, Zhe Zhe has not given birth to a prince, and several children in a row have given birth to daughters, which will not only lead to Zhe Zhe's unstable status.
More importantly, as a Horqin Gege, not giving birth to a bloodline with the Horqin steppe is a danger in itself.
It should be known that the marriage at that time was not only a door-to-door match, an equal opponent, but more importantly, with the help of the Emperor Taiji, the position of the Horqin grassland was becoming more and more stable.
Therefore, the Horqin ministry, who had not waited for the good news, could not sit still, and decided to marry Xiaozhuang to Huang Taiji again, and let the two aunts and nephews serve the same man.
When Xiaozhuang married Huang Taiji, he was in the cardamom age, lively and active, smart and clever, and for a time the couple's life was also considered Qinser and Ming.
However, after a few years of marriage to Emperor Taiji, Xiaozhuang, although pregnant, gave birth to three daughters in a row, just like her aunt.
Coupled with the fact that he was thousands of miles away from home and had been in the midst of a deep palace infighting for many years, there were also several other favored side Fujin in the palace, and the situation of Xiaozhuang was very embarrassing for a while.
At this time, the Emperor Taiji was no longer the prince who needed to envelop the major forces in the past, but the emperor who was justified and ascended to the throne, and his status was not the same.
The impatient Horqinbu, seeing that the two Gege positions of the headquarters were not very stable, sent Hai Lanzhu, who was over twenty years old and widowed at the time, into the palace.
Hai Lan Zhu is xiao zhuang's sister, the historical Shanghai lan zhu appearance is very beautiful and elegant, even more beautiful than xiao zhuang.
At that time, Hai Lanzhu was already over twenty years old, which was not the most suitable age for marriage, after all, Xiaozhuang married Huang Taiji at the age of 13.
Moreover, Hai Lanzhu is a widow, which is commonly known as a widow, and such a family is taboo even if it is placed in the folk.
However, such a woman made the Emperor Taiji fascinated, pampered day and night, gave her the favor of the special room, and completely ignored the other Blessings of the harem.
When he was enthroned in the harem, Emperor Taiji only gave Xiaozhuang the title of a concubine, which was the last of the five concubines.
You must know how honorable Xiaozhuang's identity is, he is a little princess on the grassland and a concubine of the main room, and he married the Emperor Taiji early.
Although he did not have a son, he also gave birth to three daughters for Emperor Taiji, not out of nothing, but only one concubine.
As a widow, Emperor Taiji gave her a position of honor second only to that of the empress and gave her guanju palace, which was really surprising.
What Xiao Zhuang could not accept the most was that Hai Lanzhu had a child with her almost at the same time, but Hai Lanzhu's son was taken care of by Emperor Taiji with full eyes, while his own child was indifferent.
Perhaps it was too full to lose, Hai Lanzhu and her children both died within a few years, and Huang Taiji was overly worried, and he also fell ill and died shortly after.
As soon as Emperor Taiji died, the throne was hanging in the air, and while Dorgon and the Grand Prince were fighting for the throne, Xiaozhuang took his son Fu Lin to succeed to the throne, and Dorgon and others became auxiliary ministers.
As an emperor of Horqin blood, Fu Lin inevitably wanted to accept the forces that enveloped the Horqin steppe, so he married Gege of Horqin as empress.
Ke Fulin himself prefers a gentle and dignified woman in the smoke and rain of Jiangnan, and can oppose his own poetry and talk about the wind and moon.
What's more, being disciplined by his mother and Dorgon and others for many years made Fu Lin rebel and therefore did not favor the empress of Korqin.
Before the appearance of Concubine Dong, although Fu Lin was dissatisfied, he was also a good emperor who worked hard under the command of XiaoZhuang's ear.
Perhaps the temperaments of the father and son are too similar, or perhaps the gears of fate are quietly turning, and Xiaozhuang's son, like her husband, has met a woman who fascinates him.
Concubine Dong entered the palace in the thirteenth year of Shunzhi, and as soon as she entered the palace, she was crowned, and in less than a month, she was named an imperial concubine, and her status was respected.
The Shunzhi Emperor not only gave her supreme status, but also gave her a favor that others could not share, and since she entered the palace, she rarely favored other concubines.
Seeing that his son was as obsessed as the Emperor Taiji of that year, Xiao Zhuang could not help but feel a chill in his heart, worried that his son would abandon the government because of Concubine Dong.
After all, the Emperor Taiji was such an ambitious king, but as soon as he heard that Hai Lanzhu had died of illness, he left the opposing army and rushed back to the Imperial City to mourn.
It can be said that it is a typical beauty rather than a country, and now his son is also like this, which can't help but make people feel shocked.
It may be that the beauties are short-lived, or it may be that this kind of pampering is destined not to last long, and after entering the palace for four years, Princess Dong Efei died of illness.
It is said that after The death of Concubine Dong E, the young Shunzhi Emperor was once heartbroken, and even proposed not to practice monasticism on the throne, but they were stopped by Xiaozhuang and others.
In the second year of Dong Efei's death, infectious diseases and epidemics broke out in the capital, and the Shunzhi Emperor died of smallpox at the age of 24.
After the death of the Shunzhi Emperor, the country could not be left without a monarch for a day, and Empress Xiaozhuang, who had already experienced two dynasties, once again stabilized the situation and pushed the then crown prince Xuan Ye to the throne, which was later Kangxi.
When Xuan Ye ascended the throne, he was still young, and Empress Xiaozhuang assigned him several auxiliary ministers in the imperial situation to stabilize the imperial situation.
Privately, she herself taught her grandson as she had taught her son, how to become a wise king.
Judging from the political achievements of the later Kangxi Emperor, the teachings of Empress Xiaozhuang are indispensable, and it can be said that without Filial Piety, there would be no later Qing Dynasty.
Empress Xiaozhuang has enjoyed honor through three emperors, and is undoubtedly the biggest winner, but as a woman, why not be full of sadness? She can change the situation, but she can only change the hearts of her husband and son, and she has experienced the pain of losing her husband and son, and she has been in charge of her life!
