Success, marrying Bai Fumei should be the ultimate goal of many men. Throughout the ages, how many boys have gone forward and succeeded is nothing more than for these two. In ancient China, there was such a group of people, they may not be able to achieve "success and fame", but they occupy the top spot in "marrying Bai Fumei", which is also a kind of success in life, this group of people is a horse, the emperor's son-in-law.
Of course, being a pony still comes at a cost. The first is the complete transformation of the social status of male superiority and female inferiority, and the feudal dogma that originally clamped down on women was all applied to the donkey horse, for example, the donkey horse can not have three wives and four concubines, and cannot ask the wife to obey the four virtues. Although he lived better than ordinary men, how to say that the horse was also a relative of the emperor, and the glory and wealth were certainly indispensable.
Therefore, even if you can't have three wives and four concubines, in ancient times, there was still a group of men who broke their heads and wanted to be a donkey, the most typical of which was Chen Shimei, whose story was well known. After ten years of hard study, he entered Beijing to catch the exam, and was recruited by the emperor as a donkey after high school. Chen Shimei, who was full of power, abandoned Qin Xianglian and his son, who had been providing him with schooling, and later Qin Xianglian took her son to Beijing to find him, but chen Shimei designed and distributed it to the frontier.
Chen Shimei is the kind of lord who can abandon his wife and son, be ungrateful, and deny his six relatives for the sake of his horse. However, in ancient times, there was also such a man, who racked his brains in order not to be a horse, which can be said to be the complete opposite of Chen Shimei, a clear stream among men.
This person is the eastern Jin Dynasty famous calligrapher Wang Xizhi's son Wang Xianzhi, Wang Xizhi himself is not a lord who likes to climb the power and attach to the nobility, when the imperial court lieutenant went to his house to recruit a son-in-law, a bunch of brothers and brothers were dressed up to let the lieutenant choose, only Wang Xizhi was shy and lying on the east bed unwilling to move, however, the lieutenant looked at this, and finally chose Wang Xizhi.
Perhaps inheriting his father's nature, Wang Xianzhi has always been a high-spirited festival in major events between men and women. Wang Xianzhi would belong to a man with good looks and talent in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, not only did the people charm a lot of girls, but even his peers who danced and inked were extremely jealous of his skin bag.
Later, Sima Daofu, the most beloved youngest daughter of Emperor Jianwen of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, took a fancy to him and used the name of Zhao Ma to name Dao to marry Wang Xianzhi. However, Wang Xianzhi already had a married couple, he was not a man like Chen Shimei, plus the princess's appearance was also difficult to say, and categorically refused the princess's request.
However, the princess did not forgive, must Wang Xianzhi divorce his wife and marry him, and Wang Xianzhi, who was forced to be helpless, even burned his legs to the bone with wormwood, hoping to use disability to force back the princess's courtship. Unfortunately, love makes women lose their minds, seeing such an obsessive Wang Xianzhi, the princess's love becomes more and more fierce, and she says to Wang Xianzhi's showdown, "Even if you are lame, I will marry you."
There is no way to retreat, Wang Xianzhi knows that his life is estimated to be difficult to protect if he continues like this, for fear of affecting his family, he had to discuss divorce with his wife, and his wife also understood Wang Xianzhi's bitterness, took the initiative to rest, kept the festival for Wang Xianzhi for life, and never married again.
As for the end, Wang Xian, who really became a donkey, was depressed and depressed, and his wife became ill. Coupled with the worsening of his leg injury, he died within a few years, and he lived for a total of 43 years. However, his story has been passed down and has become synonymous with good men.
