In the long ancient history, the emergence of each feudal dynasty is impressive, but the glory of the dynasty is not only produced, but more importantly, how to make the life of the people and the imperial palace better. Take the Tang Dynasty, for example, the Tang Dynasty was known as the Kaiyuan Dynasty, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the princesses and princes could also enjoy the glory and wealth. In the Qing Dynasty, it was different, the status of the princesses was very low, and from birth, they were set for the second half of their lives, that is, the chess pieces of the imperial court, married to the Mongols, Xiongnu and other tribes.
Throughout the Qing Dynasty, most of the princesses were not well known, and the only princess known to posterity was named Princess Heshuo KeChunchang. Speaking of this name, everyone may not know it very well, but she also has a name, which is known to everyone in the world, that is, Princess Jianning. The princess has also been often adapted into modern novels. According to historical records, Princess Jianning was very miserable, first imprisoned by Kangxi for 7 years, not buried after death, but cremated, and even her dearest son was persecuted.
Princess Jianning's father was Emperor Taiji, so according to the imperial family, Kangxi can be regarded as the nephew of Princess Jianning. Speaking of Princess Jianning's lineage, her mother is an unnamed concubine in the harem, but the strange thing is that Princess Jianning was favored by The Emperor Taiji as soon as she was born, and even her own brother, Shunzhi, also cared for Princess Jianning, saying that she was the pearl in the palm of the Emperor Taiji. However, such a lovely princess finally became a pawn in the marriage because of the problem of the imperial court.
When Princess Jianning was 13 years old, her brother Shunzhi successfully ascended the throne and became the new emperor. At the same time, for the sake of world peace, but also for the foundation of imperial power. Princess Jianning was forced to marry Wu Sangui's son Wu Yingxiong. She knew that her marriage was only for the royal family to stabilize the government, but she was still very affectionate with her husband and had children one after another.
Unexpectedly, Wu Sangui rebelled, and the emperor at this time also became the former nephew Kangxi. Kangxi ordered the execution of Wu Sangui's entire family, including her husband Wu Yingxiong and two sons. Princess Jianning, on the other hand, was placed under house arrest for 7 years. More than 20 years later, Princess Jianning passed away. This tragic experience also makes us see that even a princess, once married, is someone else's person, even if the emperor is his nephew, he will not have good fruit to eat.
