When watching "The Biography of Zhen Huan", I can always be moved by shen Meizhuang, the sister of the eyebrows in the play, who is as light as a juju, different from Zhen Huan's good at borrowing, and also different from An Lingrong's sensitivity and suspiciousness, and sister Mei's body has a light and calm temperament, which is a kind of lonely height that "would rather die with incense in the branches than blow down in the north wind" - she is gentle and steady, but in her bones she has an indomitable integrity.
And there is a legendary woman in history, she has experienced the four-fold identity of princess, empress, empress, and princess, which shows that her fate is full of ups and downs, although she is different from Shen Meizhuang's family situation, birth, and age, but they all have a rare and elegant integrity.
She was the eldest princess of Emperor Yang Jian of Sui and Empress Dowager Jialuo, Yang Lihua.
First, after marrying Yuwen Yun, the prince of The SilkEn, his feelings were indifferent
Yang Lihua was born in a time of regime change, when his father Yang Jian was still a general in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and was depressed because he was caught in the power struggle between Emperor Yuwen Yong and the powerful minister Yuwen Hu.
After 12 years of careful drilling, Emperor Yuwen Yong finally eliminated Yuwen Hu and won the final victory, sitting firmly on the throne, he began to win the hearts of the people, the first thing was to win over the Yang family, the power of the opposition, in order to show his sincerity, he approved Yang Jian's daughter Yang Lihua as the wife of prince Yuwen Yun, Yang Lihua gained the first identity: the crown princess.
And her father Yang Jian is also very satisfied with this family affair, can marry the royal family, which is very beneficial to his career, since then, Yang Jian has hitched a ride on the express train exchanged for his daughter's marriage, all the way to promotion.
But at this time, Yang Lihua was only 13 years old, ignorant and ignorant, and did not know why love was, under the arrangement of her father and the current emperor, she married Yuwen Yun, who was two years older than her.
Without the emotional basis of Fenghua Xueyue, this marriage is like a crumbling sand tower, and Yang Lihua, who is only 13 years old, does not understand that she is being used as a pawn in the struggle, but she also gradually realizes in her daily life with Yuwen Yun that her 15-year-old husband does not seem to like himself very much.
Yang Lihua has received a good family education since childhood, and is the eldest daughter of the family, so she has infiltrated the character of not arguing, not panicking when things happen, and behaving like a small adult.
On the other hand, the crown prince Yuwen Yun, although he was educated by his father Yuwen Yong with sticks, was still a completely stupid disciple, who did not learn no skills, was drunk as fate or her, marriage did not change his bad temperament, as early as before marrying Yang Lihua, he had already given birth to the eldest son Yuwen Yan with the palace maid Zhu Manyue in his palace.
Yuwen Yong was worried that after a hundred years, the crown prince would not be able to take on a big responsibility, so he was very strict with Yuwen Yun and educated him with sticks and sticks, but the result was counterproductive, under the high-pressure policy of his father, Yu Wenyun learned to set a set of backs in person, although he did not like Yang Lihua, but at least maintained a peaceful appearance, the two looked at each other, lived a peaceful married life for five years, and had their first daughter, Yuwen Eying.
But the short and peaceful life was soon broken, and with the death of Yuwen Yong, Yuwen Yun, who was not disciplined by his father, was like a jeep without brakes, rushing all the way to the outrageous abyss.
Second, Yuwen Yun was unscrupulous in the wine color
In 578 AD, Yuwen Yun succeeded to the throne, and crown princess Yang Lihua was made empress.
At this time, Yang Lihua had been with Yuwen Yun for five years, and in these five years, although her husband did not love her very much, he at least fulfilled the foundation of her husband, yang Lihua thought that Yuwen Yun, who became emperor, would abandon his playful nature, and from then on the empress dowager raised his eyebrows.
But Yuwen Yun's former meekness was all fake, and sitting on the emperor's throne, he could finally tear off the mask of hypocrisy and do whatever he wanted.
Yuwen Yun had always coveted women, and after he ascended to the throne, he ordered that all women of the right age in the homes of government and public officials should not marry, and all of them should be put into the palace to enrich their harem, and he also made all five women he liked and good-looking women empress.
Once the five empresses were established together, this was simply hitting Yang Lihua, the right empress of the middle palace, in the face, but she was not humble, not angry, although her own empress was useless, but because of her gentle and not jealous personality, the harem concubines were very respectful of Yang Lihua, and the harem would still play Yang Lihua for the first time if she had affairs.
Yang Lihua has always adhered to the foundation of the empress, and other empresses and concubines have scrambled to please Yuwen Yun, but she has disdained it, but she is at ease with the affairs of the harem, getting along with the concubines and loving the sisters.
Yuwen Yun, who has been stuck in the pile of women and is accustomed to flattery, is very dissatisfied with Yang Lihua's lukewarm attitude, and has insulted Yang Lihua several times, often beating her for no reason, and even once directly threatened to kill Yang Lihua.
Changing into an ordinary woman, when she heard the emperor say that she was going to kill herself, she had already knelt on her knees and begged for forgiveness and wept bitterly, but Yang Lihua thought that she had nothing wrong with her, so why did she ask for forgiveness?
Her serene demeanor, not humble, not soft, this attitude made Yuwen Yun greatly annoyed, and gave Yang Lihua the death penalty to force her to commit suicide.
After Yang Lihua's mother heard about this, she hurried into the palace to intercede, her mother Lonely Garo was also a female Haojie, in the face of Yuwen Yun's violent fainting, she was not afraid at all, kneeling in front of the palace door and pleading bitterly, until she prostrated her head and bled, so that Yuwen Yun let Yang Lihua go.
Yuwen Yun spent all day in wine and building a lot of civil engineering, as early as when he ascended the throne, he felt that being an emperor was too troublesome, and before he died, he first passed the emperor's throne to his eldest son Yuwen Yan, so that he did not have to deal with political affairs, and threw all the imperial affairs to Yuwen Yan and his father-in-law Yang Jian, and he was addicted to sound and color dogs and horses, looking for beautiful women everywhere, building palaces, and enjoying the blessings of the Qi people.
God saw that he really did not want to be the emperor, so he fulfilled him, and only two years after he ascended the throne, Yuwen Yun's body was hollowed out by wine, and his life was whimpering, and Yuwen Yan, who was only 8 years old, succeeded to the throne, and Yang Lihua, who was only 20 years old, became the empress dowager of Tianyuan.
Third, his father Yang Jianfuzheng seized the world of his husband's family
As early as the time of Yuwen Yun's reign, he began to be jealous of Yang Jian, although Yang Jian was his father-in-law, he could repeatedly rebel against Yuwen Yun and oppose the cruel and harsh decrees issued by Yuwen Yun, causing Yu Wen Yun's dissatisfaction, Yuwen Yun always wanted to get rid of Yang Jian, and Yang Jian was not a fish, after being repeatedly suspected by his son-in-law Yuwen Yun, Yang Jian knew that sooner or later the Yuwen family would attack the Yang family.
Therefore, he thought of a two-pronged strategy, and he expressed to Yuwen Yun through the minister that he wanted to go to a foreign post.
This was exactly what Yuwen Yun wanted, and he placed his father-in-law far away in Bozhou, so that Yuwen Yun let down his guard and Yang Jian was able to save the family.
From the day he left the capital, Yang Jian had the idea of taking the Zhou and replacing him, and in 580 AD, Yuwen Yun sent Yang Jian to attack Southern Chen, and Yang Jian heard that Yuwen Yun was seriously ill, and knowing that the time had come, he kept delaying and refused to leave.
Sure enough, Yuwen Yun was seriously ill and died soon, and the little emperor Yuwen Yan was still too young to personally govern, so Yang Lihua wrote a will as the empress dowager to support Yang Jian's auxiliary government, she thought that her father would guard the Northern Zhou Dynasty without any second thoughts, and assist the little emperor until Yuwen Yan was pro-government, but she did not think that her trust in her father would soon be broken.
In the face of power and interests, everything is insignificant, after Yang Jian supervised the country, he soon revealed his ambition to usurp power and seize the throne, he cultivated power, won the hearts of the people, the hearts of the people in the world belonged to him, Yang Lihua saw her father's ambition, many times obstructed but could not turn the situation in anger.
Only one year after the Northern Zhou Jing Emperor Yuwen Xian ascended the throne, he was forced by the situation to be located in Yang Jian, who built Sui on behalf of Zhou Jian, creating a brilliant era belonging to Emperor Wen of Sui.
Fourth, the younger brother killed her daughter's entire family against her will
After Yang Jian established the Sui Dynasty, he wanted to make his eldest daughter Yang Lihua a princess, but Yang Lihua hated her father's disloyalty and injustice, and she always regarded herself as the empress dowager of northern Zhou and refused to accept the princess title drawn up by Yang Jian.
Yang Jian understood her daughter and no longer demanded it, So Yang Lihua took her daughter Yuwen Eying to live in the deep palace, preferring to keep her daughter to live a difficult life than accept the rewards and favors given by her parents.
Until the sixth year of the opening of the emperor, in order for her daughter Yuwen Eying to have a happy future, Yang Lihua finally accepted the reward of her father, she was named Princess Leping, in order to make up for the guilt of her daughter, Yang Jian rewarded her with something far beyond the princess specifications.
In order not to let her daughter follow in her footsteps, Yang Lihua put all her thoughts on her daughter, and when Yuwen Eying was married, she personally set up an interview, summoned all the talents of the right age to the front of the palace, and selected by Yang Lihua one by one - from the aspects of appearance, origin, character, knowledge and other aspects of a comprehensive investigation, Yang Lihua is like a busy interviewer, interviewing no less than a hundred young princes every day, among them, Li Min, the son of Li Chong, the governor of Youzhou, can be of the highest level in knowledge, stand out among the talents, and become Yang Lihua's son-in-law.
Emperor Yang Jian of sui was also responsive to Yang Lihua's needs, and Yang Lihua sought the position of national pillar for his son-in-law, and Li Min ascended to the top of the court at a young age, thanks to Yang Lihua's hard heart for his daughter.
After marriage, Li Min and Yu Wen'e Ying were in love, the feelings were very strong, Yang Lihua was very pleased, she was glad that she had built a happy marriage hall for her daughter, and her daughter would finally not be like her, because of a failed marriage and fell into a lonely situation.
After the death of Emperor Wen of Sui, The Sui Emperor Yang Guang succeeded to the throne, the Sui Emperor and his sister Yang Lihua had a very good relationship, Yang Lihua often walked around the palace, and the Sui Emperor often traveled together, and in the fifth year after the Sui Emperor ascended the throne, Yang Lihua accompanied him, halfway unfortunately contracted a bad disease, critically ill, and when she was dying, she entrusted her daughter to the Sui Emperor, hoping that Yang Guang could treat Yuwen Eying and Li Min well, so that they would have peace and clothing and food and clothing throughout their lives.
After the Sui Emperor tearfully agreed to his sister's last wish, Yang Lihua closed her eyes and ended her legendary and tragic life.
After the Sui Emperor returned to Beijing, following his sister's last wishes, he gave all the food and fiefs of Princess Yang Lihua of Leping to her daughter and son-in-law, and Yuwen Eying was healthy and rich under the protection of her mother.
But five years later, a folk song suddenly spread among the people: "Yang flowers fall, plum blossoms, where in the world is spring?" Later, some alchemists predicted that "Li Shi should be the son of heaven", which worried Yang Guang, who had already lost the hearts of the people due to tyranny at this time, and in line with the principle of preferring to believe that he had no trust in his own, the Sui Emperor killed all the men surnamed Li in the middle of the dynasty, including Yuwen Eying's husband Li Min, and none of Li Min and his clan were spared.
The loss of her beloved Yuwen Eying was devastated, and three months later, Yang Guang made up his mind, disregarded the last wish of his former sister, and gave Yu Wen'e Ying to commit suicide - the happy life that Yang Lihua sought for her daughter was still ruined at the hands of Yang Guang, the emperor.
Yang Lihua's life is not very long, but she has experienced the change of 2 dynasties and the change of 5 emperors, she is constantly circling between her husband's family and her mother's family, she does not like to fight, but she was not born at the right time, and was forced to get involved in many bloody storms.
She was powerless to change the end of the change of dynasty, but she could always maintain a high and noble integrity that was not humble, disdainful of competing for favors, disdainful of flattery, disdainful of flattery, disdainful of bending the knees, this standing spirit supported her through the stormy Southern and Northern Dynasties, this kind of pampering and not shocking integrity, so that she still leaves a strong mark in the history books to this day.
