Among many women, Mulan has become a classic image and has been moved to the big screen by Disney, but what makes more people wonder is whether stories like Mulan can really exist in the past? Soldiers eat and live together, and women dressed as men will not be found? Don't you say, there really is such a story in the past, the past document "Qing Dynasty Wild Record", it records a "Qing Dynasty version" of Mulan's story, her life, but not as lucky as Mulan, but more twists and turns, women dressed as men to join the army, but because of pregnancy to expose the identity, what is the final outcome?
This story also has to start from a man named Zhu Mou, Zhu Mou is a failed scholar, repeatedly failed to pass the meritorious name, in a rage, he came to the Guanlong area, under zuo Zongtang's army, because the students can read, so in the army as a record clerk, his top boss, is a commander surnamed Chen.
Zhu Mou looks very handsome, has a very gentle personality, so that Commander Chen is also very important to this subordinate, and often takes care of Zhu. (Zhu Nian is young and beautiful, and he is also kind and kind, and the leader relies heavily on him)
To say that this Chen Commandery is also not a mortal, since joining Zuo Zongtang's command, he has fought bravely, made many military achievements, and has a very high status, while Zhu Mou has been taken care of by Commander Chen, and his life in the military camp is also smooth.
However, things surprised him, one night, Commander Chen invited Zhu to the military tent to drink, when the wine was half drunk, Commander Chen suddenly invited Zhu to sleep with him, which made The scholar frightened and hurriedly planned to escape, but Commander Chen threatened with a knife, and Zhu had no choice but to obey.
When Chen Tongtong removed the armor, Zhu was surprised, it turned out that she was actually a daughter, and finally Shusheng no longer resisted, the two maintained a secret relationship from then on, and since then Zhu and Chen Tongling have been in closer contact, but in the eyes of colleagues, Zhu and Chen Tongling are two big men who are tired and crooked together, obviously some abnormality, so they look down on him behind his back and regard him as the male favorite of Chen Tongling: "Colleagues are all despised, and zhu is the leader of Longyang. ”
Just when the two were happy and comfortable, Commander Chen suddenly became pregnant, and the two were very anxious, but there was no way, according to the law at that time, concealing joining the army was a felony.
As her belly grew day by day, in the end, Commander Chen still made a decision, and she wanted to report the truth to commander Zuo Zongtang. When she saw Chen Shi, who was pregnant, appear in her military tent as a woman, Zuo Zongtang was also extremely shocked, and she did not expect that the subordinate who followed her birth and death in the past was actually a daughter like Mulan.
However, the enlightened Zuo Zongtang did not embarrass the two, but ordered the scholar Zhu to replace Chen's position, the two consummated marriage, and Chen returned home to raise a baby. And gave birth to a son.
Why is Chen hiding in the barracks and no one finds out? The "Wild Records of the Qing Dynasty" describes her appearance in this way: "The face of mucuna is black and acne-prone, and it is very powerful, and people do not expect her females." "There is no doubt.
However, the end of the Chen clan is tragic, the book explains that when Zhu Returned from the rebellion, he has become a great general with great military achievements, he is no longer satisfied with the inferior appearance of the Chen clan, and once again married two concubines, but the fierce Chen clan could not accept the husband's flower heart, took his son, resolutely moved to the city of Gansu Province, and then broke off relations with Zhu.
Chen's character of daring to love and dare to hate can't help but make people feel admired, and she is indeed like Mulan, breaking through the shackles of feudal etiquette and pursuing the life she wants.
