Imperial life has gone through twists and turns, and the Asian version of the commoner princess is Michiko Shoda, who bravely faces suffering.
As the eldest daughter of the third generation of the Shoda family, Michiko Shoda had a superior family background and an elite Japanese education at that time. She has been loved by her family since she was a child, and she is known as a perfect woman with beautiful appearance. The young Prince Akihito had been in love with him for a long time and was determined to break with convention and marry him. However, when entering the royal harem, Michiko had to face all kinds of harsh etiquette rules and the dissatisfaction of Empress Xiangchun. She needs to be 100% obedient and frequently lose her temper at various royal ceremonies. In addition, she was even harshly scolded and monitored by the female official Junko Makino, which caused mental exhaustion. Despite his recklessness, Prince Akihito could not disobey his mother's vision.
In media interviews, Princess Michiko gently pointed out that the relationship between her and Akihito is not a love story, but a simple union of the needs of the royal family. Regarding the resting place behind her, she firmly stated that she would not choose to be buried with Akihito. Clearly, she is still sensitive to the harm caused by the royal family.
After Michiko married into the imperial family, she successfully conceived and gave birth to a child, which stopped the gossip in the palace. However, before Empress Xiangchun's death, her life did not become easy.
Respected scholars have said that Empress Michiko endured extraordinary pain and pressure in the imperial family. As a princess from the private sector, she did not receive sufficient support and security when she walked into the challenging and expectant palace.
Michiko Shoda's setback has sparked a public debate about the way the imperial system treats commoner princesses and whether their rights are legitimate. In addition, the status and rights of women in the royal environment have also aroused our deep thinking and concern.
Michiko Shoda is known as Asia's "commoner princess", and her difficult journey in royal life is sympathetic. Although she bravely copes with the difficult situation, she highlights the harshness and injustice of the royal system towards the commoner princess. This incident has aroused public reflection on the status and rights of women in the royal family, and we sincerely hope that this issue will receive wider and deeper attention and protection.
