Mr. Hu Shi once said a very famous saying, that is, history is a little girl who dresses up. This is still very reasonable, taking the example of yanyi and novels, in the yanyi novel, Cao Cao is a complete traitor and thief. It is simply the villain in the minds of many people, but in fact, Cao Cao can be called a man of both culture and martial arts, and during his reign, he also unified the north, giving the Central Plains good economic development and a relatively stable environment.
This is true of the novels, not to mention the TV series, the black ones are directly washed into white. Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen is such a person, in recent years there have been many costume dramas about him, and there was one some time ago. But most of the Zhu Qizhen in these dramas is handsome and dashing, looking like a resolute and courageous Ming Jun. But in fact? He may not be a full-fledged Emperor, but he is by no means a Mingjun, and his brother Zhu Qiyu has the potential of a Mingjun than him.
Not to mention the ridiculous things done in the capital, just a change in the civil fort cannot crown the Ming Emperor on his head. No Ming Jun, after losing more than half of his civil and military officials and hundreds of thousands of elites, was willing to knock on the door. No Ming Jun would defend Wang Zhen after his restoration and make a monument to him when everyone in the world knew that wang Zhen was wrong. No Ming Jun would have killed Yu Qian, who wiped his ass for him, and the abolition of martyrdom was not enough to offset his mistakes. Judging from these points, that is, Daming did not die, otherwise he would have been listed as a kind of Emperor.
The second is Gao Zhan, who is intelligent and kind in the TV series, and also somewhat similar to Ming jun. In fact, this zhu qizhen was only more dim and more tyrannical. He ascended the throne in the second year of Emperor Jian's reign (561), and succeeded his elder brother Gao Yan as Emperor Wucheng of Qi. What did he do during his reign? The first favorite, Yu Yu, his favorite is Heshikai, who is not a good person. He did not have an affair with Gao Zhan's empress Hu Shi, and also advised Gao Zhan to take advantage of his youth and enjoy more pleasures, and the major affairs of the state should be handed over to the minister.
The second was the wanton killing of the chancellor of the clan, and when he had not ascended the throne in the early years, he strongly persuaded Gao Yang to kill his brother Gao Jun, the king of Yong'an, and Gao Zhuo, the king of Shangdang. Later, he poisoned his fourth brother Gao Yan the Prince of Pingyang and Gao Cheng's eldest son Gao Xiaoyu of Henan, and then forced Gao Cheng's concubine Gao Xiaohuan (高孝琬) and Gao Yan's concubine Gao Bainian (高百年). The third thing was to rape the emperor's sister-in-law, and his brother Emperor Wenxuan had an empress named Li Zu'e, who was born as beautiful as a flower.
After Gao Zhan succeeded to the throne, he threatened her, "If you don't follow, I will kill your son." Li Zu'e was so ashamed that she killed Gao Zhan's daughter after giving birth to her. Gao Zhan, enraged, killed Li Zu'e and Emperor Wenxuan's son Gao Shaode, and beat Li Zu'e badly. She was not treated, and she was thrown into the ditch in a bag, which was also her fate. When he woke up, he was still alive, became a nun, and escaped from this hellish palace.
The third person is related to Gao Zhan, in the TV series she is Gao Zhan's lover Lu Zhen, an inspirational woman who has become a female official by virtue of her courage and wisdom. In fact, this is not a good person in history, the play changed her name, Lu Zhen's prototype in history is Lu Lingxuan. Lu Lingxuan, by virtue of being the nursing mother of Gao Wei, gao zhan's son, controlled the government step by step through the young lord, not to mention that she could influence the life and death of the chancellor even the position of empress.
However, she only knows how to suppress political opponents, defile the palace, embezzlement and bribery, and extravagant pleasure. The last pillar of Northern Qi, Huo Luguang, was also killed by her, and it can be said that the demise of the country is also inseparable from her scourge. Among the three people who were whitewashed, Lu Lingxuan's fate was the most tragic, Zhu Qizhen had Yu Qian held on, and Gao Zhan died early. Lu Lingxuan not only personally pushed Northern Qi to extinction, but also saw the day of destruction, and Northern Qi was forced to commit suicide after his death.
