In China, almost everyone knows that Zheng Chenggong is mentioned, as a great national hero at the end of the Ming Dynasty, he recovered Taiwan to achieve national reunification, implemented a series of ruling measures after entering Taiwan, successfully promoted the development of Taiwan's economy, and his exploits are even more famous in history, but almost no one knows that Zheng Chenggong was actually born in Japan, and his mother was actually Japanese, and was also the daughter of Emperor Tagawa Yu, a minister of the Hirado Clan, and later in the Qing army attacked Anping, his mother was humiliated and committed suicide and martyrdom, and finally Zheng Chenggong opened his stomach for him.
To talk about this little-known history, we have to start from how Zheng Chenggong's mother, Tagawa Matsu, came to China, when Zheng Chenggong's father, Zheng Zhilong, was the first ship king in East Asian waters, because Zheng Zhilong moved to Hong Kong and Macao in his youth, had rich experience, spoke Lusita and Portuguese, and was good at dealing with foreigners, and Japan was the country he often visited, and finally received preferential treatment from the Japanese side, so he introduced Theagawa clan, the daughter of Emperor Tagawa Yu, a vassal of the Hirado clan, to marry Yu Zhilong.
In the period from 1626 to 1627, there was a serious drought in southern Fujian, the crops were not harvested, many family stocks were quickly used up, even the disaster relief grain of the imperial court was exhausted, many people began to eat the bark for a living, and soon there were villages that even the grass root bark was eaten, seeing this situation, Zheng Zhilong invited tens of thousands of hungry people in Quanzhou to go to Taiwan to reclaim, and then Zheng Zhilong lived the life of the overlord of Shanghai, during which he also clashed with the Dutch Air Corps of the Dutch East India Company, but finally successfully defeated the Netherlands.
In the first year of Chongzhen, the imperial court beckoned Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhilong returned to the Ming Dynasty government to support the Ming Dynasty to resist the Qing, but as the Ming Dynasty dissipated, the Qing soldiers soon went south in a big way, because the Qing troops at that time were unstoppable, soon Zheng Zhilong decided to surrender, at that time Zheng Chenggong also bitterly advised his father not to do that, but in the end Zheng Zhilong still surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, thinking that this could save his family, but unexpectedly the Qing soldiers killed the red eye, directly grabbed Zheng Chenggong's mother and insulted, because of the strong nature of the Tianchuan clan, finally could not bear to humiliate himself and died, This deeply shocked Zheng Chenggong, who had followed his mother mostly since childhood, so he chose Japanese etiquette to leave his mother innocent.
At that time, if a Japanese woman wanted to restore her innocence after being humiliated, the only way was to cut her abdomen and clean her internal organs, and Zheng Chenggong was to return her mother's innocence in accordance with this Japanese etiquette, bury her, and swear to be incompatible with the Qing army, which was influenced by her mother's strong personality and had a lot to do with her mother's harm. After that, Zheng Chenggong took the hatred of the country and the family to embark on the road of resisting the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty.
