The Transformation of the Civil Fort
Later, Emperor Mingying paid the price for his ignorance and fainting. In addition to the destruction of the 200,000 most elite troops in the central Ming Dynasty, in the harem of the Ming Dynasty, Empress Qian, the wife of Ming Yingzong, also suffered a very painful blow.
Empress Qian wanted to stay together all her life, and her husband, who wanted to fall in love all her life, had no news in the war. When the bad news came, Empress Qian's heart was like ashes, and she still couldn't believe the news of her husband's death.
Fortunately, Zhu Qizhen's identity made him the most valuable prisoner in the Wallachian army. Zhu Qizhen survived, but lived in the enemy's cage.
For the survival of her husband, Empress Qian was comforted in her heart. However, times have changed, the world is hot and cold, and Empress Qian is in the harem, because of the change of identity, she has been snubbed. In this cold, Empress Qian was in pain, thinking about it, waiting, hoping that her husband Zhu Qizhen could return to his side again.
When night fell, Empress Qian remembered in her mind the days when she and Zhu Qizhen met each other. As the most loved woman in Zhu Qizhen's life, as Zhu Qizhen's lifelong companion's wife, Empress Qian's efforts have cost too much.
In the records of the history books, so that the sweet stay of a lifetime became a royal marriage tragedy.
Typical virtuous wife image
In ancient Chinese families, Confucian ideas were not only observed by officials, but also recognized by many ordinary families.
"The king is the subject, the father is the son, and the husband is the wife"
, is the moral bottom line that people observe every day in their lives. It is precisely because of this moral bottom line that Chinese society has achieved good development.
Under the influence of this thought, the main responsibility of the wife to the husband is to ensure the quality of life of the husband. This may seem rigid, but it is still a rule that many families follow.
For example, in the relationship between Japanese families, many women very much want to be a husband's little woman and serve him every day to meet their simple happiness and happiness.
The image of Empress Qian is a typical image of a virtuous wife. Its unswerving devotion to Zhu Qizhen also stems from the dominance of this kind of thinking. This simple thinking not only made Empress Qian's good story, but also became the reason for Zhu Qizhen's love for her life.
Of course, this kind of thinking of The Qian Queen is related to his family background.
1. The low level of birth and the magnificence of the ceremony
In the process of selecting harem concubines, in order to prevent the harem from interfering in politics, the daughters of the sons of the Hanmen were specially selected as candidates for the harem. And Empress Qian's family history begins with her great-grandfather.
Empress Qian's great-grandfather was named Qian Zhen, and he was a loyal escort under Zhu Di, the King of Yan. With Zhu Di's successful rebellion, the Qian family's official position was also promoted, but the main position was still the royal guard. His father, Qian Gui, before his daughter was elected empress,
It was only a small capital commander, and in order to meet the empress's honor, Qian Gui was promoted to the position of governor of Zhongfu Tongzhi.
As the first empress in the history of the Ming Dynasty to enjoy the first wedding ceremony, Empress Qian's wedding was extremely grand. Because the emperor before the Ming Dynasty, as early as when he was still a prince, had already chosen an empress. Empress Qian, as the first woman to be the empress after marriage,
It enjoyed too much praise and grandeur.
Because the hidden identity behind Empress Qian was carefully selected and conspired by Empress Zhang. In the careful selection of the empress, Empress Zhang very much agreed with this woman, because her every move was very much in line with the traditional Confucian thought.
The requirements for women - virtuous, comfortable, graceful posture.
2. Refuse to reward your family
After Empress Qian ascended to the throne of the mother of the Ming Dynasty, what awaited her could have been the glory and wealth of the family. Because her husband was the emperor of the empire and had the highest authority in the empire.
As long as the Qian Queen had any request, inform her husband, and any request would be met.
However, empress Qian, who was virtuous, did not use this privilege, nor did she use any privilege in the life of her palace to satisfy her family's selfish desires. Zhu Qizhen tried several times to improve the status and power of Empress Qian's family, but Empress Qian did not agree.
Because compared with the image of her husband "Ming Jun"
If his family is promoted, it will affect the emperor's governing ethics. In many dynasties throughout the ages, royal marriage will inevitably give their families the opportunity to prosper, and the most typical adverse results are the chaos of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, the queen scrupulously abided by the image of her wife and was not moved by the nihilistic magnates, which is still rare in history.
3. Encourage the reproduction of the crown prince
It turned out that Empress Zhang's vision was really good, and she chose a good empress for the Ming Dynasty. Compared with many women with intrigues and sinister hearts, the main contradictions and struggles in the harem come from the reproduction of the prince.
Because the son of a concubine will determine the direction of future imperial power. On the back of the imperial power, there are many women's scheming and the city government, which is also the reason why the palace fight drama is hot.
In the darkest hour of the Ming harem, as long as someone is found to be pregnant, then her life will soon be over. The scarcity of princes in the late Ming Dynasty was directly related to the darkness of the harem. Even now when I go to the Forbidden City, the rumors about the drugging in the well can't help but be shocked. The sinister nature of the human heart is the most poisonous poison in the world.
However, Empress Qian's heart was quiet and simple, and for the sake of her husband's future, Empress Qian did not reject Zhu Qizhen's favor for other concubines. For a wife,
What a grace it takes to allow a husband to "cheat."
A man he loves deeply, but allows him to contact other women, this is not a deformed world view, but a virtuous pattern.
Reluctance and perseverance towards Zhu Qizhen
If it is said that in the situation of the harem, the situation of Empress Qian cannot meet all the requirements, then the subsequent events will make Empress Qian completely in pain. The change in Tumu Fort not only shocked the Ming Dynasty, but also shocked Empress Qian.
A national disaster also brings a family disaster.
The emptiness of the throne has made the position of Empress Qian lose its value. At the moment when The Qian Queen needed to care the most, no one cared about her life or death. The fate of Empress Qian is linked to the fate of Zhu Qizhen,
The benevolence before Empress Qian could not change the occurrence of this tragedy. As an emperor's little woman, the only thing Empress Qian could do was wait.
1. The angle of jewelry
After hearing that Zhu Qizhen had been captured by the Wallachian army, Empress Qian saw a glimmer of hope. From her little woman's point of view, she wants to exchange everything for her husband's return. So the Queen qian immediately turned over all the jewelry and belongings,
I hope Vala will put her husband back.
When the leader of the Wallachians also received this expensive jewel first, he also first became greedy for the wealth of the Ming Dynasty. The small royal family had such an astonishing wealth, so Zhu Qizhen became the proof of the first plunder of the Ming Dynasty.
With the help of the army, it even hit the capital of the Ming Dynasty first. However, the united Ming courtiers made the dream of being rich and noble first a fantasy.
Empress Qian's jewelry not only did not exchange for her husband's return, but led to the ambitions of the Wallachian army. But in the world of the Queen of Money, what is important besides her husband? In the time that followed, the existence of Zhu Qizhen became the reason for Empress Qian's survival.
2. The pain of grief
Her husband returned indefinitely, and the external environment also repulsed the "queen". Those who had previously greeted him began to ignore him after Ming Yingzong left. Her status as queen,
Instead, it became the source of her pain. In the midst of grief, she could only shed tears.
In the records of the history books, this little woman who wanted to protect Zhu Qi Town all her life cried blind one eye and cried a lame leg
。 "The night weeps and weeps, and the tiredness is lying on the ground, and the loss is a strand." Tearing and retracing the damage."
。 The pain in the human world may be due to the fact that one's own world is too small. In the process of missing her husband and feeling the cold of the world, Empress Qian's behavior is undoubtedly helpless.
But her faith made her wait for a good news.
3. Foam with each other
Empress Qian's wait was not disappointed, and it seemed that the heavens were touched by her piety, and Zhu Qizhen returned to Beijing. But in his life in Beijing, Zhu Qizhen lived a life of a secluded prisoner.
Waiting for Zhu Qizhen was another dilemma, but the only one who accompanied her was Empress Qian.
Life in Zhu Qizhen was very hard, the imperial court did not give him excess property, in order to earn a living, Empress Qian began to weave women to improve the needs of life. "After the money, the handmade female red is sold for jade food." In the midst of a difficult life,
Empress Qian and Zhu Qizhen's friendship witnessed the existence of true feelings in the world. In Zhu Qizhen's eyes, Empress Qian has undoubtedly become the most loved woman in his life.
A reflection of the big picture
Although Empress Qian's eyes were only her husband Zhu Qizhen, in the broad perspective of Ming Dynasty politics, Empress Qian's value not only did not advance the development of history, but led to the regression of history.
Although Empress Qian did not act in political affairs, it did not mean that she did not have responsibilities.
Zhu Qizhen's fainting and willfulness, as empress Qian, as his wife, may have sincerely guided it, which would curb the tragedy in it. After Zhu Qizhen was captured, Empress Qian's short-sighted gift-giving led to another challenge for the Ming Dynasty.
In the subsequent choice of throne, Empress Qian could have provoked the girder, but she chose to refuse.
Loving and staying with a person is the simplest truth in the world, but different environments also determine different responsibilities. Although The Queen of Qian was a small woman, in her eyes,
Only her husband, this dependence, instead became a major reason for Zhu Qizhen's indulgence. "Doing nothing" is not really doing nothing, but doing it selectively.
The success of small feelings, the ignorance of big feelings
Today, history is a thing of the past, and it is difficult to assess the rights and wrongs of the ancients. But different angles can get different pictures and understandings. In the feelings of both husband and wife, Empress Qian's true feelings and persistence towards Zhu Qizhen,
It has become a good story in the love of ancient emperors. It was precisely because of Empress Qian's efforts that Zhu Qizhen fell deeply in love with this woman.
However, in the face of the fate of the royal family and the country, Empress Qian's love for Zhu Qizhen seemed too ignorant. As a queen, sometimes you can't think only of yourself. Although the marriage of the ancient feudal court had many political purposes, it could only strive to safeguard its own interests.
Only in this way can we make our own destiny up to our own hands.
Love for a lifetime, until death, such sincere love has become the goal of many people, but how many people have grasped it? Simple mutual and complex interests, and how many interests destroy the bridge between the two people's feelings.
The relationship between life is a science, not too simple and not too complicated. Or find the path you choose, because the gain and loss of cause and effect need to be considered.
