In 946, the Liao army invaded the harem of the Later Jin. When 29-year-old Yeluruan saw a 41-year-old palace maid with four eyes facing each other, his heart was shocked, and he raised the butcher knife, put down the big knife, and only said to Emperor Taizong of Liao: "I don't want battle merits, I just want her!" After that, he carried her on his shoulders and prepared to take her away.
In 946, Yelu Ruan led the Liao army to capture the capital of the Later Jin Emperor, and happened to meet an old palace maid in her forties, Zhen Dinghui.
Zhen Dinghui's charm remains, his demeanor is elegant, and he does not show the slightest panic. Yelu Ruan took a fancy to her at a glance, and immediately asked Emperor Taizong of Liao to bring her back to the Liao Kingdom.
Emperor Taizong of Liao wondered why his nephew liked this elderly palace maid, but Yeluruan claimed that Zhen Dinghui was like the stunning Zhen Mi during the Three Kingdoms period, which was his true love in this life.
It turned out that Zhen Dinghui was originally a Later Tang palace maid, and after the fall of the Later Tang, she entered the Later Jin court to serve.
Years of court life have made her well-informed and well-behaved. Yeluruan could see at a glance that she was different. Therefore, Yelud Guang did not say much and gave the Zhen Ding Hui to Yelu Ruan.
A few years later, Jerü Nguyen succeeded to the throne as emperor, and he was determined to canonize Zhen Dinghui as empress to show their affection for Jin Jian.
This was groundbreaking in the Liao Kingdom, because according to the rules of Liao, the empress could only choose Xiao women.
At that time, Shuluping, the wife of Liao Taizu Yelu Abaoji, helped her husband make great achievements, and Abaoji gave "Xiao" to the Shulu family, and from then on, Xiao specialized in the position of empress. Now Yeluruan made an exception without authorization, which naturally attracted public anger.
In particular, Yelu Abaoji's widow, the current Empress Dowager Shuluping, was even more furious.
She summoned Jeruen several times and scolded him for not following the steps and violating the ancestral system.
However, Yelu Ruan was not moved, and on the occasion of the establishment of Zhen Dinghui as empress, another woman of the Xiao clan was selected as empress to maintain the surface balance.
After Zhen Dinghui entered the main palace, he was deeply favored by Yeluruan. Although the two have a big age difference, their relationship is very good.
Just when everything seemed to be going in a good direction, in 948, the Liao state clan An Duan raised troops and rebelled, claiming that Yelu Ruan was no longer worthy of being a king after he had disobeyed his ancestral precepts and established the Han people.
Because Anduan's son Chajie promptly denounced his father's rebellion plan, the rebellion did not cause disaster. As a result, Cha Thiet gained the trust of Jeru Nguyen and was increasingly used.
Zhen Dinghui, however, was quite wary of Chajie. She believes that this person can even betray her own father, and she is afraid that she will also harm the monarch and the seller in the future. She repeatedly advised Yerü Nguyen not to use Cha Jiao, but Yeru Nguyen did not accept his wife's advice.
In 951, Jerü Nguyen decided to attack Hou Zhou. Zhen Dinghui felt that the time was still early, and repeatedly advised Yeluruan not to rush to use troops, but Yeluruan did not listen.
So, he led the two empresses and the army south. Halfway through, he made a sacrifice for his father, and after a feast, he returned to his tent to sleep.
At this time, Cha Che finally revealed his wolf ambition. He took advantage of his drunkenness and killed Yeluruan. Zhen Dinghui was also doomed and was killed along with Yeluruan.
Zhen Dinghui had a similar fate to Zhen Mi during the Three Kingdoms, both failed to control their husbands, and both ended their lives in tragic ways. It is embarrassing that she could have enjoyed her old age in peace, but was implicated in court battles.
