She is famous."
Mad Woman Juana
", the real victims of the palace fight in history.
1. Man sits in his home, and the throne rises from heaven
Juana, the madwoman, lived in 15th-century Spain.
Before the unification of Spain, there were two kingdoms in this land, Castile and Aragon.
Juana's mother was the Queen of Castile
Isabella I
Her father was the King of Aragon
Ferdinand II
。
The two originally belonged to the same family, and their grandfather was a brother, so they were distant cousins. After their powerful alliance, they united Spain by peaceful means.
What a perfect royal marriage!
Unexpectedly, of their seven children, only one son and four daughters grew up. And even more terrible is yet to come!
The eldest daughter, Princess Isabella, died when she was born, and the child died within two years.
His only son, Prince Juan, died before his sister, and his widow was a stillborn child.
There are three daughters in the back: Juana, Maria and Catherine.
thereupon
Princess Juana, who was originally unmarried on the throne, accidentally became the heir to the two thrones.
2. There are thousands of scumbags, and the princes account for half
Juana was a bright and hard-working child from an early age, with a formal royal education, she was fluent in many languages, and she was also talented in music and dance.
But she was educated from an early age only to marry in terms of aspects, not to cultivate heirs to the throne.
In 1496, Juana and
Philip I
marry. Philip I was the son of Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor, and a famous and beautiful man.
They had 6 children, and they were either emperors or queens, and they were winners in life.
However, Philip frequently cheated, and Juana did not want to swallow her anger,
Tossing and turning, he was imprisoned by Philip in a tower
After Juana inexplicably became the heir to the throne, Philip used rhetoric to deceive Juana again.
3. If it is for the sake of power, the father will mend the knife
After the death of Isabella I, Juana became Queen of Castile, and her husband Philip naturally became king.
Juana's father, Ferdinand II, was very unhappy about this, and he was unwilling to relinquish power and wanted to rule with his daughter.
Weng and his son-in-law began to fight
Taking advantage of his daughter's absence, Ferdinand became regent of Castile himself and wanted to annex Castile.
The Castilian nobles panicked and hurried to summon Philip and Juana back to power.
The two returned with a large group of mercenaries, and Ferdinand was basically out of play.
After secret talks between Ferdinand and Philip, it was agreed that Ferdinand agreed to retire and return to his kingdom of Aragon.
But then Ferdinand claimed that his daughter Juana had been imprisoned by her son-in-law and that he wanted to take measures to protect her rights.
Just when the two sides are about to fight,
Philip died suddenly of typhoid fever
。 But many believe that he was poisoned by Ferdinand.
When Philip was buried, Juana was heartbroken, and she rushed over to open the coffin and kiss the body of her deceased husband, so as not to let people bury it.
This made everyone feel even more strongly: Juana was a crazy person.
Next, Ferdinand again became regent of Castile.
Juana, though seated on the queen's throne, had no real power and was transferred all her loyal men, finally
Imprisoned in the palace by his father
4. Life is too difficult, and the son still sprinkles salt
A few years later, a great age Ferdinand II died, but Juana was not freed because of Juana's heirs
Charles V
Grow up.
Charlie was Juana's eldest son, and when he came to Castile,
Get a mandate from Juana to co-govern
Because at this time, Juana was still the titular queen, and Charles was only the crown prince. In order to protect his right to rule from threats,
Charlie continued to imprison Juana in the palace
Juana's physical and mental condition deteriorated, and she insisted that the nun who cared for her wanted to kill her, and she was afraid to eat, bathe, and sleep.
But Charlie didn't care, and went on to order that no outsiders should come near the queen or talk to her.
Whether Juana was originally crazy or not, she was locked up for so many years, she must be crazy.
However, fate returned juanna's last and most terrifying joke — to let her live long enough.
It wasn't until the age of 76 that Juana finally ended her life of suffering.
Fairy tales tell us that princes and princesses live happily ever after.
But the reality is not so, in the face of power, the prince and princess did not beat you to death is not bad.
Let's think less, struggle a little more, and it's safest to have things in our own hands!
