In a church in Italy, a special couple is getting married.
The reason why they are special is that one of them is the daughter of an Italian powerful family, Beanca, and the other is Tan Zhanchao, a Chinese military academy student who is in the middle of war.
The two have different identities, status, nationality and culture, but Italian princess Beanca insists on marrying Tan Zhanchao.
But married life is not as beautiful as imagined, after giving birth to 4 sons, she was cheated and betrayed by her husband, Beanca chose to leave, and after returning to China after many vicissitudes, she became a generation of luxury queens.
An Italian princess married far away from China
Beanca was born into the Medici family, a family that originated in Italy and became famous throughout Europe and produced several popes.
In the West, there is an evaluation of the Medici family, that is, without the Medici, the Italian Renaissance would definitely not be what it is now.
In addition to status, the wealth of the Medici family is also incalculable. Most of the Renaissance exhibits we can see today are from the private collections of the Medici family.
And Beanca was born in the heyday of the Medici family, so it can be imagined that she is a strong family and favored by her parents, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the little princess of Italy.
But no one expected that the little princess, who grew up in the palm of her hand since childhood, actually fell in love with a man from China without warning.
At the age of 15, Beanca met Tan Zhanchao.
At this time, Tan Zhanchao was just a student of the Italian military academy, and the two met by chance at a dance, and Beanca almost took a fancy to Tan Zhanchao, who was eight years older than him, almost at first glance, and in the face of Beanca's enthusiastic overtures, Tan Zhanchao also quickly responded.
In this way, two young people fell in love.
At this time, China was in the aftermath of war and chaos, and a military academy student came from a country with frequent wars and storms; The other is a little princess who is loved by thousands of people, and Beanca's parents naturally strongly oppose this marriage.
But Beanca has long identified Tan Zhanchao, in her heart, Tan Zhanchao is more graceful and knowledgeable than other Italian nobles, for this reason, she did not hesitate to fight her parents, and in the end, her parents nodded.
In 1935, Beanca finally married Tan Zhanchao.
After marriage, Tan Zhanchao chose to leave Italy in order to return to China to resist Japan, and Beanca also resolutely followed Tan Zhanchao on the boat, said goodbye to his parents and friends, and rushed to a strange country - China without hesitation.
Reduced to spying
After coming to China, Beanca found that it was completely different from what Tan Zhanchao had described before.
Ordinary people here are precarious, worrying about their daily food rations, and in a wartime country, survival is a challenge.
And his only reliance on Tan Zhanchao, as soon as he came back, he joined the anti-Japanese team, and he had long lost his thoughtfulness and enthusiasm in the past, and Tan Zhanchao no longer accompanied her all day as before, chatting with her gently.
Beanka can understand Tan Zhanchao's estrangement, the country's war is chaotic, every hot-blooded boy can not stand by coldly, so she infinitely tolerates Tan Zhanchao's emotions and busyness, and has always supported him.
During this period, Beanca also gave birth to 4 lively and cute children for Tan Zhanchao.
There are still a few cute children to solve the loneliness in life, but Tan Zhanchao's derailment completely knocked out Beanka.
She suddenly found that her husband was in love with the little nurse who took care of her, and the look in her husband's eyes when he looked at the nurse was the same look he had when he was in Italy.
Beanka had also asked Tan Zhanchao for an explanation, but in the environment at that time, it was normal for a man to have multiple wives, and Tan Zhanchao could not understand Beanka's anger, he was very annoyed with why Beanca was so selfish and why he was unwilling to recognize the nurse.
Beanka, who has always been arrogant, chose to leave Tan Zhanchao with her children and go to Shanghai.
But with 4 children, and I don't have any foundation here, how easy is it to live?
Beanka was beautiful, and at that time, in the Shanghai social circle, they all wanted to get close to her to see foreign customs, and Beanca did rely on betraying her hue to temporarily support 4 children.
But after a long time, when the money earned by social spending is still not enough to raise the children and cornered, the Japanese have also noticed the celebrities in the Shanghai social circle, Beanca is beautiful and smart, and more importantly, lack of money, which is an excellent spy candidate.
So she offered to make Beanca a spy, and the Japanese would support her basic life.
Perhaps out of revenge for Tan Zhanchao, or maybe he was really about to survive, in short, Beanca finally agreed to the invitation of the Japanese and became a spy.
After 1945, the War of Resistance was won. Relatives and friends in Italy wrote a letter hoping that Bianca would go back, but Bianca still had feelings for Tan Zhanchao and stubbornly waited for Tan Zhanchao to change his mind.
Her espionage experience did not allow her to return to China, and soon the government issued an arrest warrant to punish Beianka for traitor.
Whether Beanca has unspeakable concealment, whether it is forced or not, the identity of the spy is true, and he has to pay for his choice.
Could it be that she really died in China?
Amnesty returned home and co-founded a personal brand
Just when Beanka was almost desperate in prison, her husband Tan Zhanchao, who abandoned her, came.
Maybe it's guilt, maybe he still has some love for Beanka, seeing that the execution date is approaching, Tan Zhanchao thought of delaying time by getting Beanka pregnant first.
In this way, after eating and living with Beanca for a while, Beanca finally became pregnant and was punished with a suspended sentence.
At this time, the Medici family also extended a helping hand to this stubborn girl, and under the mediation of Tan Zhanchao and the Medici family, Beanca was pardoned and reborn.
Just when Beanca thought that everything was going to be fine, her husband changed his mind and had a new life in his belly, but he received the news that Tan Zhanchao had died on the battlefield.
Without Tan Zhanchao, Beanca could not find a reason to stay in China, so she returned to China with her children.
After returning to China, Beanca went to Paris, where she entered the fashion industry with her beautiful appearance and became an assistant to designer Christine.
During her time with Christine, Beanca benefited a lot and gained a new understanding of the fashion field herself.
Christine also admired the stubborn and optimistic girl in front of her, and many of the ideas of the two coincided, pushing Dior to the top position of luxury.
And Beanca has also transformed into a fashion queen at the pinnacle of the fashion circle.
Flowers in the mud
From aristocratic daughters, Chinese daughters-in-law, Shanghai courtesans, spies, queens of fashion circles... Beanca's life has had too many twists and turns.
Perhaps since meeting Tan Zhanchao, Beanca is no longer a princess who marries a famous and noble son according to the family's wishes, and she really has the right to choose life the moment she marries Tan Zhanchao.
In 1998, Beanca passed away, and her legendary life finally came to an end.
