For women in the world, the saddest thing is probably that throughout their lives, they have found that they have paid the ruthless man who has wrongly paid for it, but it is a pity that it is too late to regret it!
For Empress Yixiu's affection, the Yongzheng Emperor abandoned it like a, and even after learning of the heinous crimes he committed, he cruelly said: Death and life will never see each other again! ”
In the vast history of the world, there was once such an empress, contrary to yixiu's snake and scorpion heart, she not only looked like a city, but also knew how to be reasonable, gentle and kind, and was deeply admired and loved by the people.
When she was young, the emperor regarded her as a treasure and gave birth to two sons and three daughters in succession. But by the end of his life, even though he was close at hand, the emperor's husband did not even bother to see her, and even indifferently did not even attend her funeral.
A generation of Fanghua is so lonely and dead in a foreign land, which is really a realistic version of the cold and cruel "death and life will never see each other again!" ”
This tragic woman was Nguyen Hulan, the last empress of Vietnam.
Nguyen Hulan was born in Vietnam in 1914 to a wealthy Catholic merchant family. His grandfather was a wealthy Vietnamese businessman, Le Tao, and his father, Nguyen Huong, who had Chinese ancestry, was a rich man supported by the French in southern Vietnam, and was one of the four richest people in the country at that time.
At the age of 12, Ruan Youlan was arranged by his family to study at a famous aristocratic Catholic boarding school on the banks of the Seine in the suzerainty of Paris, France, and began to receive a good Western-style education and became a French citizen.
When she was a student, Nguyen Hu Lan was a famous beauty, known as "the first beauty of French Indochina". Looking at the old photos of her studies in Paris, the young girl's sideburns are like clouds, her skin is like snow, her temperament is outstanding, and she is very beautiful.
A few years later, the young girl who had achieved success in her studies returned to her hometown and met Nguyen Vinh Swënh, the last emperor of Vietnam, who had also returned from studying in Paris, at a dance party in the summer resort of Dalat.
At this time, Bao Da, who was less than 20 years old, had just stepped onto the dazzling political stage, and he was young and crazy, full of spirit, and he was fascinated by the 19-year-old beauty at first sight.
Similar educational background makes Ruan Youlan not reject Ai Lang's ardent pursuit, and gradually falls into the love network and cannot extricate himself.
However, when Emperor Bao xingchong rushed to his mother, Empress Dowager Duanhui, to ask for a marriage to Ruan Youlan, he was strongly opposed by the elders in the palace and the courtiers.
The reason for their objection was that the Nguyen Dynasty believed in Confucianism and Buddhism, while Nguyen Hulan was a French citizen and a Catholic, and did not meet the conditions of the motherhood at all.
At that time, Vietnam had been colonized by the French for many years, and the family behind Nguyen Hulan was closely related to the French forces, and people suspected that the marriage was "full of French tricks".
The magic of love is so great that Bao Da resolutely resists the pressure of the world, breaks free from the shackles of family lineage, and insists on marrying his beloved.
In 1934, the young king Bao Da finally got his wish and successfully embraced the beauty after a four-day grand wedding celebration.
In the Nguyễn Dynasty, the wives of reigning monarchs could not be directly crowned queens, but could only be made first-class concubines. Only after the death of her husband and after her son's succession to the throne can she be posthumously crowned queen.
In Bao Da's heart, this is obviously not a utilitarian political marriage, he is sincerely in love with Ruan Youlan, and is even willing to break this traditional convention for her.
If this were a political marriage, there would be no need for Boda to do so. He vigorously defied the public opinion, and once again, in a wave of opposition, forcibly crowned Ruan Youlan, who "combined the elegance of the West with the charm of the East", as the queen, with the insignia Nanfang, which means the fragrance of the South.
The young king's affection is obvious to all, and after marriage, Ruan Youlan blooms more delicately like a shy rose.
In the summer of 1939, Nguyen Youlan accompanied her husband on an official visit to Europe for the first time, which set off a fashion boom in continental Europe.
When meeting Pope Pius XII, Nguyen Hue Lam broke the Western prejudice against traditional Vietnamese clothing, dressed in a modified golden embroidered dragon robe and a traditional Vietnamese golden top hat, with an elegant and noble temperament that made the whole of Europe fall for it.
The ten years after marriage was the most comfortable period in Ruan Youlan's married life, during which she gave birth to two sons and three daughters to Emperor Bao in a row.
Of course, there were also some flaws that had to be tolerated in this decade, and in the first year after marriage, the mother-in-law, Empress Dowager Duanhui, took charge of her niece, The Cousin of Emperor Bao, Hu Shi, into the palace, and forced her son to make her "Ying Concubine".
But this did not affect the feelings between the empresses, Hu Mune was honest, and behind the control of foreign forces, in baoda's heart, naturally inferior to the dazzling Empress Nanfang.
In 1940, when the European battlefield was full of smoke, Emperor Bao took advantage of the German invasion of France to declare Vietnam's secession from the French colony.
However, the small countries that survive in the cracks are helpless, and even if Bao Da takes the opportunity to become independent, if there is no support from the powerful countries behind it, this so-called independence will only be short-lived.
The dazed Bao Emperor actually took a fancy to Japan, which seemed to be fierce, and chose it as a backer, which was really out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth.
Accustomed to colonial puppet governments, the Nguyen dynasty's waist plate could not stand up straight, and the long period of enslavement had made the numb Vietnamese people accustomed to the "change of country".
But what Emperor Bao never expected was that his lover Ruan Youlan issued an unprecedented and fierce protest against her husband's defection to Japan.
Nguyen Hu Lan may not understand the situation, but as the queen of Vietnam, she will naturally hear about the atrocities committed by Japan in Asia, and this is not a benevolent teacher, if you blindly follow, the future will be worrying.
Nguyen Youlan firmly disagreed with her husband's cooperation with the Japanese, which made Bao Da angry and harshly reprimanded. In the eyes of Bao Da at this time, his wife became the spokesperson of the French forces and the opposition force that hindered Vietnam's independence.
In 1946, with Japan's announcement of defeat and surrender, the throne of Bao Da, which had lost his patron, was in jeopardy, and he decided to go to Hong Kong to take shelter.
What chilled Nguyen Woo Lan was that her husband had taken only his lover Lee Andi, leaving himself and his children in the crisis-ridden court alone, facing the various forces that were eyeing the tiger alone, but he was at ease living in the Repulse Bay Area where Hong Kong's rich and famous people lived.
Not to mention how chaotic the domestic political situation in Vietnam was at that time, many forces were tilting against each other, and the lives of mothers and children were difficult to protect.
But Ruan Youlan still has expectations for her beloved husband.
When the French forces approached her and offered to let her eldest son, Nguyen Phuc Phuoc Long, succeed to the throne to revive the dynasty, Nguyen Huện flatly refused, retaining what her husband valued most on the grounds that "the previous emperor was still alive".
At this time, Ruan Youlan was still waiting, but she did not know that her relationship with her husband was no longer repairable.
The following year, in order to protect herself and her children's lives, Nguyen Hue Lan moved to a small town in France with her children.
What was Bao The Emperor doing at the same time?
He lobbied extensively in the international community in hopes of reviving the Nguyen dynasty with international power. Even so, Bao Da still did not forget to look for flowers and willows everywhere, indulging in erotic sounds.
According to Wiki records, during the period from the end of the country to the final settlement in Exile in France, BoDa had eight lovers, including Huang Xiaolan, a woman from Hong Kong, China, Pei Mengdi, a Hanoi girl, and Li Lixia, a dancer, and so on, and gave birth to 5 children during this period.
In 1955, the hopeless Restoration of Bao Da was overthrown again and forced into exile in France, and the young couple were finally in the same country, but separated.
France is not very large, and it is easy to meet each other, but I can no longer raise that interest, and I am even annoyed to see each other again.
In 1963, at the age of 49, Nguyen Hue Lan, the last queen of Vietnam, died alone in The Small Village of Sabrinhac in the French province of Corrès and was subsequently buried in a local cemetery.
Her husband, Emperor Bao, did not even want to see her again, and even did not attend her funeral. What Nguyen Woo Lan did not know was that after her death, Bao Da also legitimately married another French woman, Monique Hakata, as a legitimate wife, and became empress Tai Fang.
Nanfang Empress Ruan You Lan Ruoquan has knowledge, thinking of the hot love of her youth, and then to the death of life and death, will not she sigh, it turns out that her short life is actually a dream of Nan Ke!
