Qin Shi Huang, as the first emperor in Chinese history,
Why has there never been a queen in his life?
Ying Zheng was born in the rival Zhao State in his early years and lived for nearly ten years until his father was made the crown prince.
Zhao Guocai sent the mother and son back to Qin.
He had long experienced the hostility from all sides.
After that, only 1 mother who made Yingzheng more trusted
Zhao Ji also "betrayed" him, not only fornicating with Chang Yu,
gave birth to two illegitimate children,
He even agreed to destroy himself for the sake of his lover and illegitimate child. Even his mother can "betray", who can he trust? He doesn't know if the women around him will betray him too, how can they give their hearts!
In the history of the Qin State, there are many examples of queens and empress dowagers interfering in politics, such as the Empress Dowager Qin Xuan, the Empress Dowager Huayang, and the Empress Dowager Zhao Ji. Qin Shi Huang did not appoint an empress, probably because of his son's future succession, worried that after a hundred years, the empress would become the empress dowager, holding great power and interfering in court politics.
According to historical records, after Qin Shi Huang became the emperor, no matter whether it was a big or small matter in the world, the emperor decided alone, Qin Shi Huang handled government affairs, and the ministers received orders to execute. If the empress is canonized, it will inevitably disperse the emperor's power, so Qin Shi Huang was reluctant to canonize the empress, and he didn't even think about the empress.
Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, is the first time in Chinese history to complete the unification of the political figure, he is pretentious, he believes that he "virtue and three emperors, merit five emperors", so the selection of the queen is also very high, maybe only women like the widow Qing can be recognized by Qin Shi Huang.
Childhood
Qin Shi Huang was born in the state of Zhao, and although he later returned to the state of Qin to inherit the throne, his life in the state of Zhao was not easy.
And at this time, a kind girl approached him. She would help him wipe his wounds when he was injured and talk to him when he was upset. The appearance of this girl gradually soothed Qin Shi Huang's young and wounded heart, made him feel incomparable warmth and love, and Qin Shi Huang's heart also left an exclusive place for this girl forever.
Qin Shi Huang's pursuit of longevity may also be an important reason why he chose not to be an empress. What's more, not only did he not establish the queen, but he didn't even choose the prince in advance, but also because he firmly believed that he could "long live the prince", and he was not in a hurry to establish the queen and the prince, and he didn't want someone to divide his rights when he was fighting
