Regarding Zhen Mi, according to the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Wei Zhi, Empress Wen Zhaozhen", Empress Wen Zhaozhen, Zhongshan Wujiren... Father Yi, Shang Cai Ling. After losing his father at the age of three... ... In Jian'an, Yuan Shao was the middle son Xi Nazhi, Xi Chu was Youzhou, and later retained his sister. and Jizhou Ping, Wen Di Na after Yu Yi.
Speaking of Zhen Mi, I think you who have some understanding of the Three Kingdoms readers, must not feel strange, set beauty and talent with one of Zhen Mi, is also one of the famous women in the Three Kingdoms period, and even some people think that Zhen Mi was removed from the "Four Ancient Beauties" because there are strange words in her name, which shows her beauty.
The reason why Zhen Mi is known, in addition to her own good enough, is also because she has another identity - Cao Pi's wife.
Moreover, among the events that occurred in Zhen Mi's life, many stories have been handed down and widely known, and the most impressive and inexplicable of them is the story of Zhen Mi who was finally given death by Cao Pi.
So, after Cao Pi killed his wife Zhen Mi, why did he stuff his wife's mouth with rice chaff? This statement may be the closest to the truth
First, he was born into a large family and later became Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law
Zhen Mi's life is not ordinary, she was born in Zhongshan Zhen, this family has been a family since the Western Han Dynasty, and it is needless to say more about the degree of prominence.
Zhen Mi, who grew up in such a family, was quiet by nature and knowledgeable, and when she was young, someone met her for her, saying that she would be able to mother the world in the future, although her father died early, but because of her rich family heritage, Zhen Mi's life would not fall.
Although she is from a family family, Zhen Mi is not a pampered big lady temper, but there is still maturity beyond age.
When Zhen Mi was in her teens, there was not only constant war, but also natural disasters that followed. At that time, a family like Zhen Mi was naturally not affected, but ordinary people were miserable. Many people ran out of food, and many people starved to death on the streets. At this time, the Zhen family not only did not bother about food, but even had excess grain to sell.
Zhen Mi's mother thought this was a great opportunity, so she sold a large amount of surplus grain in the family at a higher price than usual. Although ordinary people are not rich in their families, they can only admit it in order to eat expensive, so the Zhen family took the opportunity to make a lot of money.
At that time, Zhen Mi actually stood up to reason for the people, she believed that in this era when the people were not happy, it was a sin to accumulate grain and grass, and it was better to feed the poor, not only to avoid causing disasters to the family, but also to win a good reputation.
At that time, Zhen Mi's father was dead, and her mother was persuaded by him, so the Zhen family opened a warehouse to help the people, and won a good reputation in the local area, while Zhen Mi, who was only a teenager, became famous because she had the idea and consciousness of persuading her mother to open a warehouse to help the people.
From this incident, it is not difficult to see that Zhen Mi is not only a kind and virtuous woman, but also sees things very thoroughly, without the shelf of a big miss, and is really a beautiful person in the chaotic world.
Due to Zhen Mi's far-reaching reputation, coupled with her chuchu touching, so many family clans have also come to the door to propose relatives, and eventually Zhen Mi married Yuan Xi, the son of the great warlord Yuan Shao.
Readers who do not understand what happened may wonder, did not the previous article say that Zhen Mi was the wife of Cao Cao's son Cao Pi? Why did she become Yuan Xi's wife again? In fact, this has to start with a war.
2. Yuan Shao was defeated at the Battle of Guandu, and Zhen Mi became Cao Pi's wife
Zhen Mi was indeed Yuan Xi's wife, and since Cao Cao won the Battle of Guandu with fewer victories, most of Yuan Shao's property as the defeated party was taken away by Cao Cao, including women.
After Cao Cao attacked the city of Yicheng, Cao Pi heard about Zhen Mi's beauty and wisdom, so he favored her, and after seeing Zhen Mi, Cao Pi asked his father Cao Cao to give her to him. Although Cao Cao also liked beauty, but his son Cao Pi only wanted this one daughter, he was not easy to refuse, so Zhen Mi became Cao Pi's wife after that.
It is worth mentioning that at this time, Zhen Mi's first husband, Yuan Xi, was not killed in the war, but left Zhen Mi to escape.
Because Yuan Xi did not die, in the era when remarriage was easy to be criticized, Zhen Mi's experience also made her suffer some depreciation. In fact, as a woman, how can Zhen Mi resist at this time, and Yuan Xi abandons her and flees, so how can Lang Jun follow? Therefore, the criticism of Zhen Mi did not last long.
Moreover, it should be understood that Cao Pi did not regard Zhen Mi as an ordinary concubine, but as a legitimate lady who was married by the Ming Media, and he also loved her in every way, and did not shy away from her remarriage. Think about it from another position, if it is Zhen Mi, who is willing to follow Yuan Xi who abandoned himself with death, instead of following Cao Pi, who loves him in every way?
Unfortunately, even if cao Pi chose to love himself, Zhen Mi's final fate was still painful.
Third, the old age is faded and snubbed, and the bitterness in the heart of composing a poem unexpectedly leads to the disaster of killing
At the time of the initial marriage, Cao Pi did treat Zhen Mi sincerely, but this only lasted for more than ten years.
In 220 AD, Cao Cao died, and Cao Pi succeeded him as King of Wei. Since then, Cao Pi has wantonly sought out beautiful people as his wife and concubines, and even the wives and concubines left by his father have not been wrong. At this time, Zhen Mi is inevitably a little old and faded, and in contrast, Zhen Mi is out of favor.
Although Cao Pi no longer loves Zhen Mi, he still has a husband and wife relationship, so Zhen Mi's life has not changed much. However, Zhen Mi was depressed in her heart, and even wrote a poem of grievances and sent it to Cao Pi.
In this poem, Zhen Mi's love and hatred for Cao Pi is included, however, Cao Pi did not understand her thoughts, but also thought that she was complaining, coupled with the gossip of the people around her, so that the very angry Cao Pi disregarded the years of marital love and ordered her to die.
However, even if she was given death, Zhen Mi, who was the right wife, should be buried well, and Zhen Mi not only did not have this treatment, but even when she was buried, she covered her face with hair, and her mouth was stuffed with rice bran, which was quite miserable.
As we all know, Chinese culture respects the dead, even the emperor will not let others die insultingly, and why did Zhen Mi have such an ending? It may be related to Cao Pi's fear and looking for someone to interpret his dreams, which may also be the closest to the truth.
Fourth, Cao Pi interpreted the dream, and because of the fear in his heart, he confronted Zhen Mi Semi bran
Since Zhen Mi was wronged, Cao Pi, who had a weak heart, later dreamed of a strange phenomenon of a green smoke ascending to heaven. After ordering people to interpret the dream, it was said that it was caused by the death of a noble woman, and Cao Pi immediately realized that it was Zhen Mi who was referring.
At this time, Cao Pi may have regrets, but Zhen Mi is dead, the matter can not be recovered, Cao Pi is very worried that the mistakes he committed will be punished, so he ordered Zhen Mi to cover her face with hair, and burrowed in her mouth, this statement believes that in this way Zhen Mi will not be able to open her mouth to seek revenge, nor will she be recognized by the King of Yan.
Such a statement may be just a fabrication, but it may also be the closest to the truth, after all, the ancients believed in gods. But there is no doubt that Zhen Mi was given death by Cao Pi, but it is absolutely true, and it is really regrettable that such a talented woman ended up with such a sad ending.
brief summary
As the saying goes, "since ancient times, the red face has a short life", Zhen Mi, who has both moral integrity and ability and a beautiful appearance, ended up with such a miserable end, which is really sad.
After analyzing the story before Zhen Mi's death, we can also see that Cao Pi is really a man of thin feelings and widowhood. As a generation of kings, Cao Pi not only inherited the power and viciousness of his father Cao Cao, but even more than that. Although Cao Cao's life was criticized, he did not dare to speak of moral integrity, and watching Cao Pi's deeds really made people see that there was no bit of integrity.
Not only did he execute Zhen Mi because of his old age and decay, but after his death, he feared that his mistakes would be punished by heaven, thus insulting a dead person in every way.
Compared with Cao Pi's non-great husband, Zhen Mi, who has virtue, talent, and appearance, has such a bleak end, which is really lamentable. Although she had enjoyed some pampering when she was young and beautiful, after her old age and faded youth, she was not only unhappy, but even killed by Cao Pi, presumably she was also very desperate before she died, and such a sad life happened to Zhen Mi and other chaotic beauties, which was really sad and lamentable!
