During the Three Kingdoms period, the Zhou clan in Lujiang was one of the most famous people in the world, and the Sun clan in Jiangdong was a local Hao clan.
"Jianchu Xingyi soldiers, Ce general's mother moved to Shu, and friends with Zhou Yu" - Sun Ce, who was weak and crowned, and Zhou Yu, a teenager, formed a brotherhood, and since then, these two handsome teenagers of similar age have made a lot of fame in the land of Jianghuai.
The most interesting thing is that these two people also met the famous Erqiao in Jiangnan when they were still in the wind, and since then the hero has often been accompanied by good people, which has become a very famous good story in the Three Kingdoms period.
From ancient times to the present, few people have carefully explored such two questions: are the beautiful and moving big Joe and little Joe really married to love? Are they really happy for a lifetime?
The big and small Qiao of the famous crown Jiangnan is actually the "booty" of the husband Jun.
Today, Qianshan County in Anqing City, Anhui Province, is the city of Anhui during the Three Kingdoms period, and the abbreviation of Anhui Province is derived from this.
This historical and cultural city is also the hometown of the beautiful women Big Qiao and Little Qiao in the Three Kingdoms period, so Qianshan is known as the "ancient capital of anhui and the hometown of Erqiao".
Erqiao's father, Qiao Gong, was a famous and prestigious family in Anhui City, in 214 AD, Sun Ce led an army to attack the Huainan region, as a subordinate Zhou Yu attacked Anhui City, it was said that Qiao Gong in the eastern suburbs of Anhui City had 2 beautiful daughters who could be called the color of the country, so he consulted with Sun Ce, and one person was given a beauty to take away.
In this regard, there is a story circulating in Anqing folk: In that year, Qiao Gong, as a famous and prestigious family in Anhui City, learned that the Wu army had come to attack the city, and he stepped forward to defend the homeland, and united with the officials of Anhui City and a group of defenders to resist.
In the midst of the Beacon War, Qiao Gong was unfortunately hit by several arrows, and finally died of his injuries due to his injuries.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were naturally very happy to have won a complete victory in attacking the city of Anhui, just as after the siege of the city in ancient times, the people and property in the city were always bound to be plundered and looted by the victors, and Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, who coveted the beauty and fame of Qiao Gong's second daughter, came to Qiao Zhuang on the eastern outskirts of Anhui City, and the sword broke into it with great courage.
The city fell, his father died, and the big Joe and little Joe who had lost their dependence seemed to have become lambs to be slaughtered, and they could only hide in the face of the enemy guards who broke into the house.
But Qiao Zhuang is so big, how to escape the fate of being captured, the jade-looking erqiao hid in the ancient well in the backyard of Qiao Mansion and there was no way back, and in horror, they immediately stepped on the edge of the well, thinking that even at the last moment, they would have to be disciplined and righteous, and it was a big deal to jump into the well and die, at least to preserve their innocence.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu searched through Qiao's family's inner house, and finally found the sisters Big Qiao and Little Qiao next to the ancient well. At the first sight of the beauty, these two heroic generals immediately stayed for a moment, and the sisters who were like peach and plum and had a beautiful temperament fell in love at first sight. At the moment, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu forced the two sisters to marry.
Erqiao was ashamed and angry, and then thought of his father who had just died, the sisters wept with their necks down, and the tears of the rouge fell into the well, and even stained the well water, and since then the well water has the fragrance of rouge, and the world has called it the rouge well.
Although the details of this folk rumor cannot be verified, the basic historical facts are still clearly defined by the book "Biography of Jiang Biao" - "Although Qiao (Qiao)'s second daughter was displaced, it was enough to make wu a son-in-law. ”
This means that although his two daughters have been displaced, it is enough to be happy and honored to have the two of us as his son-in-law. Similarly, it is also recorded in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Wushu Zhou Yu Biography": Ce Zi Na Da Qiao, Yu Na Xiao Qiao.
Obviously, whether Big Qiao or Little Qiao wanted to or not, they were all forcibly occupied by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu like "booty".
Father Qiao Gong was still in his bones, and there was neither a "gift of acceptance", nor a "order of parents, the words of a matchmaker", so the status and situation of the sisters who hurriedly put on the wedding dress in the future could not help but be worried.
After big Joe and little Joe got married, whether they were wives or concubines
Historically, Big Joe and Little Joe, as weak female streams in the chaotic world, had no martial arts and lost their dependence, so they had to resign themselves to fate and marry women in a hurry.
But in ancient times, women also paid attention to status in the husband's family, and there was a fundamental difference between "right wife" and "concubine".
During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, the "Chronicle of Baling County" quoted the Ming Dynasty's "One Unification Chronicle" as including: The Tomb of Wu Erqiao of the Three Kingdoms, in the north of Fuzhi. Wu Sun Ce attacked Anhui, and the second daughter of Qiao Gong, who was from The Great Qiao, while the Little Qiao returned to Zhou Yu, died later, and was buried here.
The verbs used in ancient mainland men to marry were roughly these three: shang, marry, and na. Only when subordinates marry the daughters of the royal family can they use the word "Shang"; ordinary people must use the word "marry" when they marry wives in the royal family; whether members of the royal family marry queens or princesses, they all use the word "Na".
In this way, Sun Ce was not a member of the royal family at that time, and the word "Na" was used to marry Big Qiao, indicating that Big Qiao's identity should be a "concubine".
Let's look for clues from the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms, WuShu Zhou Yu",according to which Sun Ce died less than five months after his marriage to Big Qiao, and before Sun Ce died, he entrusted his 1 son and 3 daughters to Big Qiao.
To know that the woman's pregnancy period is close to 10 months, it is obvious that Big Joe cannot give birth to a child in just 4 months, let alone give birth to 4 twins at once, so it can be said that Sun Ce must have had a wife before.
Taken together, it can be basically concluded that Big Qiao married Sun Ce as a "concubine".
Looking at Xiao Qiao again, the word "gui" in ancient times meant that a woman got married. Xiao Qiao married Zhou Yu, and did not elaborate on it, but what we know is that in 198 AD, 24-year-old Zhou Yu married Xiao Qiao.
Ancient people generally have a short life span, so the age of marriage is relatively small, men are about 15 years old, and can be married, then Zhou Yu, as a well-looking, well-versed scholar son, 24 to marry the right wife Is unlikely, but it is not nothing.
The word "gui" is mostly used in history books for more solemn wedding occasions, such as the royal daughter of the Zhou Dynasty marrying a prince to be the wife of the main chamber, generally using the verb "gui", so there is a written record of "Wang Ji Gui Qi, Zong Zhou's Gift".
Then some people have to ask, Xiao Qiao is not born noble, can he marry Zhou Yu as a "right wife"?
It should be known that Qiao Gong was a local noble family in Anhui City before his death, Xiao Qiao worked in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was also proficient in embroidery skills, so such a rich inner quality must be cultivated by large households, so in terms of Xiao Qiao's origin, she became Zhou Yu's wife without any problem.
Xiao Qiao not only gave birth to 2 sons and 1 daughter to Zhou Yu, but also after Zhou Yu's death, Xiao Qiao also guarded the tomb for him for 14 years.
Just imagine, if Xiao Qiao is not a noble lady of the chamber, how should she hold herself and how she can hold on to it for 14 years when she takes the initiative to guard zhou Yu's tomb!
How long did the happiness of the good joe and little joe last
Big Joe and Little Joe have no mother's family to rely on before they get married, and whether they can live happily for life lies entirely in the love and care of their husbands.
From the countless poems and works left in history, it can be known that Big Qiao and Little Qiao should be more satisfied with their husbands, sun Ce and Zhou Yu are both junjie of the times who have established meritorious deeds, not only are rich in family wealth but also outstanding in appearance, and the sisters are also considered to be married to love.
But fate does not seem to have been taking care of these 4 Bi people, especially Big Qiao and his wife, less than half a year after marriage, Sun Ce, who had just unified the Jiangdong region with great vigor, was unfortunately assassinated, and Big Qiao, the "bride", only received the favor of her husband for more than 4 months and became a widow, and the two did not leave any heirs.
Big Joe had no husband, no children, and was widowed at a young age, which was undoubtedly the greatest misfortune for ancient women.
Zhou Yu, on the other hand, died of illness while preparing to conquer Shu land, and died at the age of 36. Fortunately, Xiao Qiao and her "Mei Zhou Lang" Qinse and Ming, husband and wife have lived in the land for 11 years, and have also given birth to 2 sons and 1 daughter, and the husband died from the son, at least Xiao Qiao can rely on it when he is old.
Because of love, Xiao Qiao also insisted on guarding the tomb for her deceased husband Zhou Yu for 14 years, and died of illness in 223 AD, when Xiao Qiao was 47 years old.
In the midst of the chaotic torrent, the beautiful women of Jiangdong, Big Qiao and Little Qiao, helplessly put on the red clothes of marriage when their father's bones were not cold, although the person they married was a "person of interest", but the sisters would not expect their husbands to die early, leaving only their empty faces in front of the green lantern and white hair, lonely and miserable to spend half of their lives in Shaohua.
