In the feudal era of ancient times, many people lived a life without food, clothing and warmth, and had to worry about their livelihood every day. But there is a kind of person, they are born one level higher than others, born to enjoy the supreme glory, and there is the emperor. As the head of a country, the emperor naturally has endless glory and wealth, not only can eat and drink well, but also play well, go wherever you want, do whatever you want. Therefore, as a member of the royal family, it is very happy.
Speaking of happiness, it is natural that the princess of the royal family has been dressed and eaten since she was a child, and everyone has served and lived a carefree life. If anyone is fortunate enough to marry a princess, it will have a prosperous future. However, during the Tang Dynasty, the marriage of princesses became the emperor's biggest headache, because no one dared to marry them.
During the reign of Emperor Taizong of Tang, he wanted to marry his princess to the great hero Wei Chigong, but was rejected by Wei Chigong. Maybe everyone will feel that Wei Chigong is a bit ignorant of doing this, and the emperor's will dares to refuse, but Xiaobian still wants to praise him, because what he said is "rich and not easy to wife, benevolent", which is how precious it is. But Wei Chigong's behavior also reflects a problem from the side, the Tang Dynasty princess is not very pleasing.
In the Tang Dynasty, there were many people who did not want to marry the princess, and during the Tang Xuanzong period, Princess Wanshou's horse had always held a grudge because Bai Minzhong had brokered his marriage with the princess. That's it, there are more outrageous ones. During the reign of Emperor Xianzong of Tang, in order to choose a husband for the princess, the emperor ordered all noble men to come and enlist, but none of them wanted to go. This is a bit puzzling, the princess as a royal child, has a noble status, looks beautiful, but also can bring you a splendid future, why no one wants to marry it? At the end of the day, there are 3 reasons:
1. During the Tang Dynasty, with Wu Zetian ascending to the throne, the status of women became higher and higher, and the princesses of the Tang Dynasty not only developed a bad temper, but also wanted to emulate Emperor Wu and create their own piece of heaven, which naturally had great ambitions. The endings of people like Princess Gaoyang, Princess Taiping, and Princess Anle are the best examples. On the road to the throne, it is not so easy, if you are not careful, you will involve the family, who is willing to take such a big risk to marry such an ambitious woman.
2. In ancient times, the marriage of the emperor's children was very exquisite, and princesses generally did not leave their mother's house except for marriage with powerful countries. In this way, these men who married princesses will be as incompetent as the "door-to-door son-in-law" that is now said. In the face of the emperor's power, no matter how big an official is, he may not be able to keep his head.
Therefore, the ponies who married the princess had almost no status, and they could only live according to the princess's wishes every day, and did not dare to have any disobedience. In that patriarchal era, who wanted to be managed by their daughter-in-law every day, and they didn't have a little freedom? In other words, who would? I think few people are willing, after all, there are very few people who can enjoy happiness by marrying a princess.
3. As we all know, during the Tang Dynasty, the mind was open, and coupled with the example set by Empress Wu Zetian, the women not only dressed very boldly, but also had a chaotic private life. Wu Zetian raised many male pets, and Princess Taiping was secretly unclear with the chancellor, and all this was nothing compared to Princess Anle. Who wants to guard a princess who does not keep the way of women every day? After all, this is not only about the glory of the family, but also about the dignity of his own man. If you accidentally get worn by the princess with a "green hat", it is a shame!
Therefore, few people were willing to marry the princesses of the Tang Dynasty, and the princesses became the objects of "dislike". Of course, not all Tang Dynasty princesses were like this, and there were still many princesses who sacrificed their lives for the country in history. Let's pay tribute to them.
