In the late Western Jin Dynasty, a strange thing happened in the ancient capital of Luoyang, and every night, there would be beautiful teenagers who disappeared inexplicably. No one knew where they went, and the black box carriages that appeared from time to time on the street made the people in Luoyang City feel a sense of foreboding, and it was difficult to see young men on the street in the middle of the night.
Until one day, a handsome young official told him about his experience that night, and the insiders laughed and retreated. It turned out that these missing young men had been invited to the harem to serve and serve the empress Jia Nanfeng of the dynasty.
Jia Nanfeng was originally the crown princess of Sima Zheng, the Emperor of Jinhui, who was ugly in appearance and vicious in heart. It is said that even if the wife married by the prince is not a country, it should be picked out of a hundred miles. But this Jia Nanfeng is only one meter and four meters tall, his appearance is not amazing, his art is not outstanding, and in her body, he can't find a little kindness and virtuousness that a woman should have, and some are just jealous and cruel.
How did such an unscrupulous and talentless woman get elected princess and eventually become empress?
Here we must first introduce Jia Nanfeng's father.
Jia Nanfeng's father was Jia Chong in the late Romance of the Three Kingdoms, who instructed Cheng Ji to stab the Wei Shao Emperor Cao Xian to death. After Sima Yan established the Western Jin Dynasty, Jia Chong became a major minister of the Western Jin Dynasty for his meritorious efforts in killing Emperor Wei, and won the trust of Sima Shi, and was first appointed as a "Che Riding General" and "Scattered Riding ChangShi". Later, he was promoted to "Tai Wei" (太尉), and the official worshiped the "Duke of Lu County", and held a prominent position in the DPRK.
Sima Yan had three sons with his first empress, Yang Yan, and the eldest son, Sima Hui, died when he was two years old, and the second son, Sima Zheng, became the de facto eldest son. Sima Yan also knew that his son was not very smart, and he also wanted to choose one of the other sons as the heir, after all, he did not want the inheritance created by generations to be destroyed in the hands of his son. However, Empress Yang disagreed, and cited the tragedy caused by the abolition of Chang Liyou by the imperial court nobles since the Qin and Han dynasties, and Sima Yan finally chose Sima Zheng as the crown prince.
When Sima Zheng was 14 years old, Sima Yan wanted to choose a crown princess for his son, and it was originally the daughter of the chancellor Wei Wan, on the grounds that the Wei family's women were many virtuous and virtuous, and they had many sons, and they were from a famous and prestigious family, and in the Jin Dynasty, they attached great importance to family origin.
However, Empress Yang disagreed, and she wanted to choose Jia Chong's daughter, believing that the daughter of the Jia family was a virtuous daughter.
Sima Yan thought that Jia's wife and daughter were ugly, Jia Chong's wife Guo Huai was even more of a natural jealousy, and none of the two sons had grown up, and the jealousy of the eldest daughter Jia Nanfeng was even worse than that of her mother, so Sima Yan opposed the selection of Jia Chong's daughter.
Because Empress Yang had received many benefits from Jia Chong's wife in advance, she insisted on choosing Jia Chong's daughter as the crown princess, and Emperor Wu of Jin loved Empress Yang very much and had to agree.
On the day of the kiss, the prince was going to marry Jia Chong's second daughter, Jia Wu. But Jia Wu was too young, only 12 years old, and he couldn't even wear his wedding dress. Therefore, he remarried Jia Nanfeng, the eldest daughter of Jia Chong. In this way, Jia Nanfeng entered the palace and became a princess.
Jia Nanfeng has a rough appearance, jealousy, fierceness, sinister and cunning. After entering the palace, the cruel nature was exposed, and like her mother, she was born jealous, she did not allow other concubines to touch the prince, when she heard that the palace girl was pregnant, Jia Nanfeng actually stabbed into the abdomen of the palace girl with a halberd, and picked out a living fetus, one halberd and two lives, which was unbearable.
Sima Yan was furious and wanted to depose Jia Nanfeng, beat her into the Cold Palace, and choose another princess. The Jia family was shocked and frightened when they heard it, and asked people everywhere to intercede. At this time, Yang Yan was dead, and in accordance with Yang Yan's last wishes before his death, Sima Yan married Yang Zhi, the daughter of Yang Yan's uncle Yang Jun, and made her empress. Yang Zhi also advised Sima Yan not to abolish Jia Nanfeng, and Sima Yan finally did not choose another crown princess.
After Sima Yan's death, Sima Zheng succeeded to the throne, Jia Nanfeng became empress from the crown princess, without Sima Yan, Empress Jia began to become unscrupulous, her fierceness even Sima Zheng was afraid of three points, Sima Yan died, the entire harem, no one can control Empress Jia.
Before Sima Yan's death, he entrusted the eunuch Yang Jun, shangshu ordered Wei Wan to assist the imperial government. Yang Jun's niece Yang Yan was Sima Yan's first empress, and her daughter Yang Zhi was the second empress, and after Sima Zheng succeeded to the throne, Yang Zhi was honored as empress, so the Yang family had great power in the dynasty. In order to compete for power with the Yang family, Empress Jia first designed to kill Yang Zhi's father Yang Jun and mother Pang, and deposed the empress dowager Yang Zhi as a commoner, and then starved to death in Jin Yongcheng, only 34 years old when she died.
After the Yang clique was completely dismantled, Empress Jia removed Wei Wan, Sima Liang, and other ministers who took care of the order, and from then on, Jia Houyi was in power, with her brother Jia Mo and nephew Jia Mi, and tongfu Chaozheng. The power of the DPRK and China fell into the hands of Empress Jia.
After Empress Jia's position in the palace was consolidated, she was not satisfied with the weakness of Sima Zheng, the Emperor of Jinhui, and secretly ordered her confidants to go outside the palace to find some young men to offer her sexual pleasures, so there was an opening scene. Fearing that passing it on would damage the dignity of the royal family, Empress Jia used these fortunate men first, and then killed them.
The erosion of Empress Jia's private life did not make much waves at first, and everyone was well aware of Sima Zheng's ability, and they tacitly agreed with each other, and most of them turned a blind eye. But later Empress Jia actually extended her claws to the crown prince Sima Song.
Sima Suo was clever and clever since childhood, and was deeply loved by Sima Yan, the emperor of Jinwu. Sima Yan never deposed Sima Zheng, and it was because of this grandson that he believed that as long as this grandson was there, the Sima family would have hope, and he also knew the cruelty of the court struggle, so he vigorously protected Sima Song while he was alive.
Empress Jia also regarded Sima Suo as her heir because she had never given birth to a son. Unexpectedly, the middle-aged Empress Jia gave birth to a son for the first time, and since then, Sima Suo has become a thorn in Empress Jia's eye, and she wants to depose Sima Song and make her own son the crown prince.
Empress Jia first ordered sima song to be drunk, and while he was confused, she forced sima song to copy a handwritten letter that read, "If you want Sima Zheng to cut himself, otherwise I will do it myself", and give it to Sima Zheng and the princes of various sects. Sima Zheng was shocked to see this, so he deposed Sima Song as a shuren and imprisoned Xu Chang.
The crown prince was deposed, and the government and the opposition were shaken, which also induced a struggle for imperial power between the princes. The ministers had long been intolerable to Empress Jia's violence, and demanded that Empress Jia be deposed.
Sima Lun, the King of Zhao, believed that this was a heavenly opportunity, so he secretly instigated Empress Jia to execute the crown prince to avoid any trouble. Empress Jia then sent her confidant Huang Men Sun Wei to beat Sima Su to death with a medicinal pestle.
Seeing that Empress Jia was in a trap, Sima Lun and his confidant Sun Xiu immediately took the lead in raising an army on the grounds that Empress Jia murdered the crown prince. The mother of Sima Ran, the King of Qi, was originally the daughter of Jia Chong's ex-wife Li Shi, and she was even more in the same situation as Jia Nanfeng's family. Sima Ran personally led the warriors into the harem, Empress Jia's men were powerless to resist, dead and fleeing, at this time Empress Jia was powerless to return to heaven, so she had to tie her hands and capture them.
After killing Jia Nanfeng's cronies and his henchmen, Sima Lun proclaimed himself "Xiangguo" and began to monopolize power, and soon gave Jia Nanfeng a cup of "golden crumb wine". This vicious and vicious woman had finally ended her ugly life.
A woman with a vulgar appearance like Jia Nanfeng can become an empress, which is not easy. Unfortunately, I have power in my hands, but I don't know how to cherish it, and my heart is to fight for power and profit. Just because she is ugly, she is always jealous of a woman who is more beautiful than her, holding a vinegar jar in her arms, killing the empress dowager today, killing the prince tomorrow, and cursing the minister the day after tomorrow.
As an empress, she did not know how to mother the world, relying on her own little cleverness to act arbitrarily, thinking that others were as good as Sima Zheng, but she did not know that Sima Yan had more than twenty sons, and picking one at random was smarter than Sima Zheng, who said that the people "why not eat meat paste", such a result eventually harmed others and harmed themselves, not only did they get the punishment they deserved, but also involved the people in the family, and also buried the foundation laid by sima s grandparents for three generations. The subsequent outbreak of the "Rebellion of the Eight Kings", Jia Nanfeng was even more blameless, and she thus became the culprit of the Western Jin Dynasty's demise, and was crucified on the pillar of shame.
