There is such a person, in various TV dramas in the Kangxi period, some people say that she is Kangxi's first love, and paragraph after paragraph of text has written out such and such a lingering love between them. Even more, he made her the person Kangxi loved the most.
She accompanied Kangxi from his infancy to his adulthood and was his first teacher. But if you talk about the feelings between them, in fact, it is not the same as the legend, it is not love, more like family affection. And this woman is Su Ma Lagu.
1. Su Ma Lagu
Su Ma Lama was probably born in Korqin in 1612, and later became the maid of Empress Xiaozhuangwen by chance. Because she is talented and very hardworking, she is not only familiar with the three chinese languages of Manchu and Mongolian, but also the female workers are extremely excellent. Later, after marrying Bumubutai to the Qing Palace, Su Ma Lama also accompanied Bumubutai's life and study.
Su Ma Lagu is very good at embroidery work, she is Mongolian, in addition to being very familiar with the design characteristics of Mongolian national costumes, she also has a more profound study of the costume characteristics of han and Manchu, and has been recommended to participate in the design of the imperial court uniform, which also shows Bumubutai's trust in Su Ma Lagu and the wisdom shown by Su Ma Lagu.
After the death of Emperor Taiji, Shunzhi at that time was too young to manage government affairs, and needed Xiaozhuang to make decisions from him. However, Dorgon was in power, and their mother and son did not dare to act openly, so Su Ma Lagu became a communication station between them.
When Kangxi was born in the eleventh year of Shunzhi, Xiaozhuang was worried about the safety of his young grandson. Therefore, Su Ma Lagu was ordered by XiaoZhuang to take care of Kangxi's life and studies, and over time, Su Ma Lagu's companionship and teaching made her the most important enlightenment teacher in Kangxi's life.
In the second year of Kangxi's birth, there was an outbreak of smallpox, and those who were not infected needed to move out of the Forbidden City to avoid illness, and Kangxi was living in the current Fuyou Temple. During this period, the teachings of Su Ma Lama were also uninterrupted.
In the 26th year of the Kangxi Dynasty, Empress Xiaozhuangwen died suddenly of illness. Su Ma Lama could not accept that someone who looked like a sister had suddenly left, and since then, she has been devastated. Others said that at that time, she was sad and lonely, and at that time, Su Ma Lagu was in a very poor state, so it was very damaging to her body and mind, so Kangxi could only let her go out of the palace to take care of it.
In order to divert Su Ma Lagu's attention, Kangxi entrusted his son Xiao Twelve Yin To be raised by Su Ma Lagu. According to the usual practice, Su Ma Lagu was not allowed to leave the prince around and raise him, but it was precisely this exception that showed Kangxi's importance and trust in Su Ma Lagu.
2. The Kangxi Emperor
Kangxi is the longest reigning emperor in Chinese history, and in the past sixty-one years, he has made countless outstanding achievements, laid a very good foundation for the Qing Dynasty, and was also the heyday of the Qing Dynasty, and everyone said that kangxi's governance aspirations will not be copied a second copy, just like no one can surpass Qin Shi Huang.
The kangxi emperor's life's merits were outstanding, he was the emperor with the best merits in the Qing Dynasty, and he was also an emperor in the history of China. Then when talking about Kangxi's achievements, it is inevitable to mention this person- Su Ma Lama.
Rumors say that this is Kangxi's first love, but people who pay a little attention to history can find that on the timeline, when Kangxi ascended the throne, Su Ma Lama was already more than half a hundred years old, and she was not at all a character portrayed in film and television dramas.
Kangxi has been in the care of Su Ma Lama from birth, su Ma Lagu taught Kangxi knowledge in his childhood, and has been taken care of by her when he went out to escape the smallpox epidemic in the middle, and then when Kangxi was unfortunately infected with smallpox, it was also Su Ma Lagu who kept him by his side and took care of him endlessly until he recovered, and then he was able to return to the palace and inherit the great cause.
Su Ma Lagu, an indispensable role in Kangxi's growth history, can even be said to be an Ultraman-like existence in the eyes of the young Kangxi. In Kangxi's heart, the weight of this enlightenment teacher is very, very important, a person that Kangxi respects and cherishes very much.
Whether in the history of the Qing Dynasty or in kangxi's heart, Su Ma Lagu is very special, not only has an inseparable and indissoluble relationship with various figures in the imperial family, but also personally teaches Kangxi knowledge from an early age, and finally achieves Kangxi's amazing life.
Third, it is not love
Su Ma Lama and Kangxi are not so much love as they are family affection. The friendship that is taken care of from childhood is not love, but also a family affection that can be entrusted and trusted. She not only helped Xiaozhuang step by step to the position of empress, but also helped Xiaozhuang take care of her sons and grandsons, and how much trust she could trust her relatives in the stormy court struggles could be imagined.
Su Ma Lagu is xiaozhuang's most trusted and closest person, and she is about the same age as xiaozhuang. The huge age difference of more than forty years between Su Ma Lagu and Kangxi also drew an impossible end to the road of the two developing their feelings.
Su Ma Lamagu has been accompanying Kangxi according to Xiaozhuang's request, and has always carefully taught Kangxi and taught Kangxi a lot. Kangxi said that he had never received true happiness by his parents' side, and that Su Ma Lama's presence was as warm as a mother's.
Accompanied Kangxi from innocence to the throne above all people. Kangxi respected and relied on Su Ma Lama, and was even more accompanied by each other. Su Ma Lama, on the other hand, did not enter into marriage or raise children in her lifetime, and dedicated her life to Xiaozhuang and Kangxi. If Xiaozhuang was the most important woman in Kangxi's life, then Su Ma Lama must be the one with the greatest influence.
4. Summary
Su Ma Lagu really existed in history rather than a fictional character, but in the film and television drama, there are changes in age, and the emotional line between her and Kangxi has also changed. Why didn't the real Su Ma Lama in history marry Kangxi?
Kangxi was grateful to Su Ma Lagu for saving his life, and in the narrative of the film and television drama "Kangxi Dynasty", Kangxi was also very fond of this careful and beautiful big sister, and Xiaozhuang wanted to give Su Ma Lagu to Kangxi, but Su Ma Lagu refused at the cost of death, and also broke off his heart, and finally had to give up.
And in the main history, not to mention that the age gap between the two is more than forty years old, Kangxi as an emperor not only needs to take care of the former dynasty, the harem is definitely three thousand beautiful, if you want to marry, how can the world resist it.
The blow of Xiaozhuang's departure to Su Ma Lagu made her unable to get out of her grief until she left. In the last years of SuMa Lama,000, she had been praying in front of the Buddhist temple, and no one knew whether she missed her former sister or whether she wanted to stay away from the friendship in her heart.
In fact, such a result is not a good result, and it is not known what the dispute that is really involved in the harem looks like, and the concubines of the Heavenly Family in the courtyard of the deep palace have always seen the new people laughing and smelling the old people crying. It is better to be a palace maid and accompany the people who want to protect in a relatively free identity. This choice is also the best explanation she has given herself.
