In addition to the scientific career that human beings pursue for a lifetime, there is also a yearning for love, but love often makes people confused and painful, some people are even deeply trapped in it, unable to extricate themselves, and some people also learn to reflect from it and grow into better people.
Empress Michiko of Japan, who was besieged by the dispute between officials and families all her life, slowly grew from a young girl who longed for love to a strong and independent woman.
If life is only as it first sees
Michiko was born not ordinary, or compared to ordinary people, a completely wealthy family, her grandfather was the founder of Nissin Flour, a large Japanese company, and her father also inherited the family business.
Michiko's birth is accompanied by expectations, from a young age, Michiko received a good family education, after returning home from school, Michiko returned home, and did not love to play like other children, she would sit next to the piano and play the piano seriously, learning the score.
At school, Michiko has excellent academic performance and gets along well with her classmates, and she is well evaluated by the president of the student council, teachers and classmates.
Michiko is not only excellent in sports development, but also very good in sports development, especially in playing a good tennis game.
And it is because of tennis that Michiko's life has completely changed.
At that time, Michiko did not expect that her life would have any intersection with the crown prince of Akihito at that time, whether it was Michiko or Akihito was young and full of spirit.
Crown Prince Akihito, who had just turned 18, met Michiko at a tennis match, and the two met in Karuizawa, a tourist destination in Japan, but because of a tennis match held there.
Originally, Michiko and Akihito did not have any intersection, but just as the tennis match was going on to the last game, Akihito stood opposite a girl, who was outstanding in appearance and exuded the vitality of a young girl, but this girl was his opponent for the next game.
Apparently, this girl is Michiko, and as soon as she came on the field, she attracted the attention of everyone, not only because of her excellent appearance, but also because she had to face Prince Akihito.
Everyone is naturally cheering for the crown prince, and Akihito feels that his strength is good, obviously a little underestimating the girl opposite.
But at the beginning of the game, Akihito found himself looking down on Michiko, whose tennis strength was obviously above him, but Akihito did not want to concede defeat too quickly and held on to her scalp, but Michiko finally won the game.
After Akihito lost the game, he was fascinated by Michiko, attracted by the girl's posture on the court, Michiko was very different from the women he had known before, Michiko was like a different scenery, deeply imprinted in his heart.
Akihito took the initiative afterwards and invited Michiko to play tennis often, Michiko did not have too many thoughts about Akihito's proximity, but enjoyed playing tennis with this man, and felt that the two were very happy together.
After a long time together, the two have deeper and deeper feelings for each other, and soon the two have shown their hearts.
What autumn wind sad painting fan
The feelings of Michiko and Akihito are gradually heating up, and they both want to spend their lives with each other.
However, when the two proposed to marry, the parents of both sides strongly opposed, first of all, Akihito's mother, believing that Michiko was not from an aristocratic family, and that she was not the right person to marry Akihito, and was not a suitable candidate.
And Michiko's family believes that Michiko will not be happy to marry into the royal family, hoping that she can find someone equal to herself.
However, Michiko and Akihito get along and are touched by Akihito's sincerity and feel that Akihito is the person she can entrust for life.
The marriage between the two has been obstructed by various forces, but in the end, Emperor Showa promoted the marriage and did not mind Michiko's status as a commoner.
At this point, Michiko married into the imperial family and later became Empress Akihito.
Originally thought to be a love saga between a commoner and a nobleman, but from the day the two married, Michiko's tragic life began, Akihito's mother Ryoko everywhere to harass the commoner princess, in order to make her remember her identity.
After marriage, Ryoko kept Akihito away from Michiko for various reasons, and the daily relationship between the two couples was also under the control of Empress Ryoko.
Michiko is like a bird that flies into the court, at first fascinated by the palatial palace, but gradually feels suffocating loneliness and loneliness.
Michiko learns various court etiquette every day, and if she makes a mistake, she will be reprimanded by the people who are placed by Ryoko, and Michiko's daily life is completely under the supervision of Empress Ryoko.
Later, Michiko gave birth to a baby boy, which slightly reduced her stress.
But not long after, miyauto asked Michiko to continue to have children, and under pressure, Michiko then conceived five more children in succession, and these five children happened to be daughters, which gave Ryoko a reason to suppress Michiko, fortunately, Michiko eventually gave birth to a young son.
Michiko originally thought that after completing the reproductive task, she would spend more time with Akihito, but gradually, she found that Akihito began to become more and more cold to her.
The original sweet words and deep feelings never seemed to exist, her own mother repeatedly harassed Michiko and no longer asked questions, and the people in the palace pretended not to hear the gossip about Michiko.
The grievances and pain in Michiko's heart continue to accumulate, and the change in her husband's postmarital attitude, like the last straw that crushed the camel, completely crushed Michiko.
In just a few years, Michiko suffered from depression and aphasia, and Akihito became more and more distant from her, and finally beat her into the cold palace, no longer asking questions.
Until the end, the people in the palace no longer cared about her gossip, Michiko, aphasia seemed to be better able to protect her, no longer pay attention to rumors, and her feelings for her husband ranged from warm to cold.
After a few decades of marriage, Michiko of Japan recalled her past and said, "I have no love with the emperor and refuse to be buried together."
A sentence said his own heartache and helplessness, but also his own resistance.
Such a revolt is weak, even useless, but such a confession may be a bitter relief, a summary of Michiko's decades of married life.
epilogue
"If life is only like the first sight, what autumn wind sad painting fan", Akihito and Michiko are love at first sight, but also resentment after a long time together, sweet words to the thick of the heart.
But love is only a short-lived impulse, and it takes a long run-in for the two to spend their lives together.
Michiko went from a simple and free girl to the prison of the royal family, and the taste of it all depended on her own experience, but Michiko chose to tell the truth after entering her old age, which was a relief confession after seeing through the pain.
