In ancient China, whether it was a small family jasper or a woman who married a wife, it was basically a door that did not go out of the second door, which was not unrelated to the idea of "male outside and female inside" at that time, but it was also for the protection of women in the era of inequality between people.
Because in ancient times, the phenomenon of "bullying men and bullying women" occurred from time to time, and the more well-known one is Gao Yunei, the son of Gao Li in "Water Margin", who not only robbed the women of the people, but even the wife of Lin Chong, who was the leader of the 800,000 forbidden army.
Another scene in "Water Margin" can better illustrate the situation at that time. Pan Jinlian, the wife of Wu Song's brother Wu Dalang, just because when the window was opened, the wooden strip of the window smashed into Ximen Qing, a disciple of the fool, which caused a bad relationship.
With the collapse of our feudal dynasty, our country ushered in nominal liberation, and although it ended thousands of years of oppression, society was still unequal. In all provinces of China, there were warlord forces and became the local "earth emperor".
The two Ma brothers
When it comes to the big warlords, the first thing many people think of is Zhang Zuolin in the three eastern provinces, and in northwest China, the most powerful warlord is the Ma family brothers, of which Ma Bufang, who later became a senior general of the Kuomintang, is well known, and his brother Ma Buqing is much less well-known.
The origin of the Ma family begins with an incident in the late Qing Dynasty, when Empress Dowager Cixi chose to flee west due to the invasion of the Eight-Nation Alliance, and because of this incident, when someone painted a portrait of Empress Dowager Cixi, she painted Cixi in the center of the scene, holding a peach in her hand.
It was at this time that the career of the Northwest Ma family began to develop, and it was Ma Buqing and Ma Bufang's grandfather who protected Empress Dowager Cixi from escaping at that time. Later, the Eight-Nation Alliance withdrew from China, Empress Dowager Cixi returned to Beijing, and the Ma family remained in the northwest, and since then, the Ma family has become an important force in northwest China.
Even if the Xinhai Revolution broke out and the Qing Dynasty fell, it did not shake the prestige of the Ma family in the northwest, and the ma bufang and Ma Buqing brothers joined hands to usher in the peak of power for the Ma family.
However, Ma Buqing did not compete for his brother because of the team's mistakes, ma Bufang became the commander-in-chief of the northwest, and Ma Buqing became the deputy commander-in-chief and became his brother's deputy.
Because Ma Buqing was not good at political struggle and had a kinder heart than his brother, he was eventually squeezed out of the political center. Although he was politically frustrated, after all, his brother's blood was thicker than water, and Ma Bufang still let him enjoy a superior life and let him be at ease as a tu emperor.
The drama of being targeted
To this end, he built an oriental villa in his hometown of Gansu and Ningxia for himself and his wife to play, but with the passage of time, he still felt lonely and intolerable, and always wanted to adjust the method to find happiness, so he had another hobby, that is, often to drink tea and watch plays.
One day, Ma Buqing drove to see a play, according to his personal preferences, he chose his favorite Qin cavity, just at this time, a female actor's loud singing voice suddenly attracted him, making him wide-eyed and intently appreciative.
Qin Cavity is a very distinctive local drama, its stage performance style is spicy and exaggerated, this drama can be said to show this characteristic of Qin Cavity to the fullest, Ma Buqing was deeply attracted by this drama.
According to the consistent style of the warlords, the women they like generally can't escape, they have to get their hands on it, when the drama leaves the stage, Ma Buqing will send someone to tip, by the way to ask about the details of the play.
The female dramatist was zhang Xiaoying, who was already married at the time, but Ma Buqing still had no intention of letting go. Although he was the local earth emperor, Ma Buqing was not so domineering and directly snatched it, but planned to use the normal pursuit method to get it.
Since then, he has gone to the theater every day, and also led a group of subordinates to shout loudly and applaud, and every time he gave a lot of rewards, Zhang Xiaoying knew that Ma Buqing was not easy to mess with, and at the same time, he could not resist his soft and hard bubble offensive, the two came and went, and the relationship began to be ambiguous.
Soft and hard
As Ma Buqing, he was naturally not willing to accept the relationship between the two people, and he asked to marry Zhang Xiaoying and be his concubine. So without waiting for Zhang Xiaoying's husband to come to the door, Ma Buqing found her husband first, willing to give him 7,000 oceans and let him divorce Zhang Xiaoying.
After getting Zhang Xiaoying, Ma Buqing was very happy, all day and her inseparable, every day to see her on stage to perform, their own aunts and wives were left out in the cold, with Ma Buqing's big tree support, Zhang Xiaoying's role is more and more, becoming a "horn", and Ma Buqing's aunt also knows that the wood has become a boat, suggesting that they move back to live.
After Ma Buqing returned, he invited famous designers to buy stones and wood from all over the country and even overseas, and built a house for Zhang Xiaoying in Ningxia, which was called the Butterfly Building because the courtyard looked like a butterfly as a whole.
Unfortunately, since the ancient red face was short-lived, when the Kuomintang retreated to Taiwan in 1949, Ma Buqing also began to pack up his family's money and prepare to flee to Taiwan, but Zhang Xiaoying died of illness in Chongqing because of the journey.
brief summary:
In those chaotic times, money and power symbolized everything, not only to achieve the prosperity of one's own life, but also to trample on the dignity and freedom of others.
Today, although the capital circle can still call the wind and rain, they cannot escape the sanctions of the law and the supervision of the people!
