Phoenix Building of the Imperial Palace in Shenyang
The Qianlong Emperor inscribed the "Purple Qi Donglai" plaque for the Phoenix Building
The "Yongfu Palace" where Concubine Zhuang lived was full of Chinese plaques
The Phoenix Tower of the Imperial Palace in Shenyang is the gateway to the harem of the Qing Dynasty, and after the plaque inscribed by the Qianlong Emperor himself, you can see the residences of Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty and his five concubines: Qingning Palace, Linzhi Palace, Guanju Palace, Yongfu Palace, and Yanqing Palace. Although Yongfu Palace is ranked behind, it is famous for its owner Concubine Zhuang, so every time tourists enter the Phoenix Building, they must see Yongfu Palace, not called Princess Zhuang's name, and the voice is "Big Yu'er". What is surprising is that many people actually think that after the decisive battle of Songjin in the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was because of the appearance of Da Yu'er that the Great Ming Governor Hong Chengzuo willingly surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and the brainwashing power of the Qing Palace Drama can be seen from this, but is this the real history?
Old place
Concubine Zhuang advised Hong Chengzu - the logic of the paragraph was confused
The historical Concubine Zhuang had little intersection with Hong Chengyu, at least at the time of the Songjin War, the two had never met.
Even if the two had met, they would not have been able to communicate. Because Princess Zhuang (Bumubutai) is a Mongolian, now a Liao of Inner Mongolia, Mongolian is her mother tongue, after marrying Emperor Taiji, she contacted the Manchus to understand Manchu, as for Chinese, she could not read a basket of big characters! The Chinese-speaking Concubine Zhuang played by Schenkova, who is also a Mongolian, is that still a Concubine Zhuang?
Taking a step back, even if the Emperor Taiji was dizzy and sent his daughter-in-law to persuade him to surrender, it would not be Concubine Zhuang's turn. Emperor Taiji had 15 concubines in his lifetime, and only five of them could be ranked into the series of concubines in the Imperial Palace in Shenyang, and Concubine Zhuang was the fourth in line, ranking empress dowager of the main palace, her pro-aunt Zhezhe, the noble concubine of the Lintong Palace, Na Mu Zhong, and her sister Concubine Hai Lanzhu of Guan Ju Palace.
At that time, the status of Concubine Zhuang of Yongfu Palace was a little higher than that of Concubine Shu of Yanqing Palace, and if she had not given birth to a good son of Emperor Fulin (Shunzhi Emperor), she might not have been able to survive.
Fu Lin's ascension to the throne was the result of political struggles, Dorgon did not fight for the Emperor Taiji, and Hauge was squeezed by Dorgon... There was no one else to choose, and he could only take Fu Lin, who was still a child at the time, as a conciliator between the two factions, and he was actually a "childcare".
Moreover, the real Concubine Zhuang is not beautiful, from the aesthetic perspective of today's people, the concubines of the Qing court are generally not beautiful or even ugly (such as Empress Guangxu), whether it is Tranquility or Sichengova, they all play Concubine Zhuang too beautiful.
Therefore, historians are quite disgusted by these jokes, but they are annoyed, they also watch privately, and love to watch, just as a concoction, life is originally a kaleidoscope, so more real, why bother?
That's not the problem. The problem is, if there is really a matter of Concubine Zhuang persuading Hong Chengzu to surrender, it is simply humiliating the personality of a generation of Ming Emperor Taiji, and it is killing the collective INTELLIGENCE of the members of the Qing court team who were full of talents at that time!
You are already a victor, you have controlled the situation and the right to speak, why should you send a woman with a low brow, or your own daughter-in-law, to a prisoner, a prisoner of the order, pour tea and water, and sell the hue? Isn't that boring?
So, what was the real situation at that time? It was like this: Hong Chengyu went on hunger strike for several days, refusing to surrender, and the Emperor Taiji sent all those who could be used to persuade him to surrender, but they were scolded and returned. Emperor Taiji still did not give up, and specially ordered the most favored official Shangshu Fan Wencheng to go to persuade him to surrender, to see if Hong Chengyu really had the determination to die unyieldingly. Fan Wenchengzhi and Hong Chengzuo roared wildly, while Fan Wencheng was patient, did not mention the matter of surrender, talked with him about the past and the present, and at the same time quietly observed the color. During the conversation, a piece of dust fell on the beam and fell on Hong Chengzuo's clothes, and Hong Chengzuo spoke while "repeatedly wiping it off."
Fan Wencheng did not move, resigned, and played back the Emperor Taiji: "Chengzu is not dead." Chengzu still cherishes our robes, but how is his body? Emperor Taiji accepted the opinions of Fan Wencheng, Zhang Cunren and others, and took good care of Hong Chengzu and was gracious.
The next day (May 4), Emperor Taiji personally visited the Taimiao Temple, and Hong Chengzu stood without kneeling. Emperor Taiji booed and asked for warmth, seeing that Hong Chengzuo's clothes were thin, he immediately took off the mink fur on his body and draped it on Hong Chengzuo's body... On the fifth day of the first month of May, Hong Chengzu, together with his ancestor Dashou and other generals, officially held a surrender ceremony and bowed down in front of The Emperor Taiji.
This situation is too familiar to everyone, the dynasties have been staged too many times, the book is never changed, just change the actor!
The bottom card is: change the owner, the talented, willing to work the old employees have long figured it out, the new boss as long as the treatment to the foot, face to the foot, the sense of ceremony to do enough, such as taking off their own clothes, for you to put on, you want to jump ship early, hurry to borrow the slope down the donkey, serve soft mouth, reopen, everything is lucky.
It is not difficult to say this kind of thing, but for countless migrant workers who have embraced and talented people throughout the ages, but have been repeatedly suppressed and suppressed, and how they are eager to wear leaders who have no one to use although they hold power, how they can't ask for it!
Experts actually move "mortal hearts"? ——Zhi yunting and Yan Chongnian each held one the same
Princess Zhuang's persuasion to lower Hong Chengzu was a joke, and the folk said it was over, but unexpectedly, the rigorous historians suddenly changed their ways and inserted themselves.
Some people have reflected that Zhi Yunting, an expert in Qing history, conclusively claimed: "Princess Zhuang did indeed have a good thing in persuading Hong Chengzu to surrender," and described it in her great work "Sixty Years after the Founding of the Great Qing Dynasty": Hong Chengzu swore to die at that time and went on hunger strike for several days. Princess Zhuang used her gentleness and wit to impress Hong Chengzuo, who had always been full of gratitude and admiration for Concubine Zhuang in her heart, and later became more trusting and loyal to the Qing Dynasty.
Mr. Zhi's statement was later reprinted by newspapers and the Internet and was widely circulated. Fortunately, Mr. Yan Chongnian took the initiative to stand up and said a fair word.
Mr. Yan said: "Concubine Zhuang persuaded Hong Chengzu to surrender, there is no such thing in history, it is purely a joke!" First of all, the literature is not recorded; second, contrary to the harem system of the Qing Dynasty, the harem is systematic, how can the emperor's concubines leave the palace alone and go to the prison of the captured generals? This does not make sense; third, safety is not guaranteed; fourth, it is even more absurd to promise each other, Concubine Zhuang is the beloved concubine of Emperor Taiji, and she also gave birth to the ninth son of the Emperor Fulin, how could he send his own concubine to a general's cell in an enemy country and exchange pornography for Hong Chengyu's surrender? Fifth, the two sides did not speak chinese, Hong Chengzu spoke Chinese, Concubine Zhuang spoke Mongolian, and later entered the palace to learn Manchu, but could not speak Chinese, and When Concubine Zhuang arrived at Hong Chengzuo, the two did not speak the language. ”
Since then, the dust of the "Zhuang Concubine Mystery Case" has been settled, but the pen holders still did not spare this chaste woman, and then pulled her and Dolgun together, concocted the so-called "Zhuang Concubine Marry", and wrote novels and filmed movies, and were very busy.
More shady rumors - Concubine Zhuang and Hong Chengzu have "illegitimate children"
The false passage of "Concubine Zhuang persuaded to surrender" not only tarnished Princess Zhuang's reputation, but also caused a very bad social impact, which gave rise to a sinister follow-up rumor: Kangxi is the illegitimate son of Hong Chengyu and Concubine Zhuang!
This is the same as the fake model of "Qianlong was originally a Han Chinese" or "Qianlong's mother was a Han woman", and although the techniques were clumsy, the intensity of the blow was vicious and fierce.
Therefore, those who strongly support the "Concubine Zhuang persuasion" to surrender, even if they have no intention of doing so, have invisibly contributed to the spread of rumors.
A few years ago, an anonymous article circulated on the Internet, purely spoof, but the click rate is not low, the title is: Look at the portrait of Hong Chengzuo, and the Kangxi Emperor is simply the same!
The original text is as follows:
The historical Kangxi Emperor was born in 1654, and the Shunzhi Emperor was born in 1638, when Kangxi was born, Shunzhi was less than 16 years old. The Shunzhi Emperor only lived for 24 years before he died, although the history records that Shunzhi had many children, but basically died early, Shunzhi's daughter, the longest lived in her thirties, it can be seen that Shunzhi's genes are not good, but the Kangxi Emperor has a long life, which is a bit strange.
Although there are also wild historical records that Shunzhi's mother, Concubine Zhuang, had some relationship with Hong Chengzu, but Shunzhi was 100% the son of Emperor Taiji, because Shunzhi was born in 1638, and Hong Chengzu only surrendered to the Qing dynasty in 1641.
Let's look at Hong Chengzuo again, this person's talent is very great, Hong Chengzu is not a foolish and loyal person, he can betray Daming, indicating that this is a very realistic person, he is only loyal to himself. Although Emperor Taiji persuaded him to surrender, he was not loyal to Emperor Taiji, and after Emperor Taiji's death, he immediately joined forces with Dolgun to abolish the inheritance rights of Emperor Taiji's eldest son Hauge, and Dorgon regarded him as a confidant and trusted him from then on. Later, in 1650, Hong Chengzu joined forces with Xiaozhuang to kill Dorgon, which shows that the relationship between Hong Chengzu and Xiaozhuang is extraordinary.
So, how did Xiaozhuang and Hong Chengzuo come together? The synopsis of this matter is basically as follows: after the death of Emperor Taiji, according to the regulations, Xiaozhuang is to be martyred, and at this time Xiaozhuang is only 30 years old, of course, she is not willing to be martyred, so she goes to ask Hong Chengzu to find a way. Hong Chengyu was a realistic person, and the conditions that could impress him were naturally not ordinary money officials, but probably Princess Zhuang's personal consent, and the two formed a secret alliance since then. Hong Chengyu also lived up to his trust, and several parties wandered around, co-opting Dorgon, and forced Daqing to set up a 5-year-old child (Fu Lin) as the monarch. Since then, Hong Chengyu and Xiaozhuang have established a relationship.
Hong Chengyu asked Xiaozhuang to seduce Dorgon and finally marry Dorgon directly, in order to plant the seeds of hatred in Shunzhi's heart, and as Shunzhi grew up, the contradiction between him and Dorgon intensified. At this time, Hong Chengyu joined forces with Xiaozhuang and Shunzhi to kill Dorgon. Since then, the most powerful people in the Qing Dynasty have been Xiaozhuang and Hong Chengzuo, and Shunzhi is young and can only listen to Xiaozhuang.
At this time, Hong Chengzuo could already openly live with Xiaozhuang, who was 37 years old at this time, with strong desires and no one to restrain him, and finally in 1654, he and Hong Chengzuo gave birth to a son, who declared that he was Shunzhi's child. In fact, Shunzhi's child of the same year had already died prematurely, and this child was the Kangxi Emperor.
Of course, Shunzhi heard about all this, so he eventually died depressed. After Shunzhi's death, Kangxi succeeded to the throne smoothly, and Hong Chengzu was assisted by a dead heart, and he became a winner in life.
Let's look at the portraits of the Twelve Emperors of the Qing Dynasty: Emperor Taiji and Shunzhi, all of which have square faces; after Kangxi, they have become pointed faces. Look at Hong Chengzuo's portrait again, and the Kangxi Emperor is almost the same! Comparing the portraits of Huang Taiji and Shunzhi, what do you think?
This spoof article grasps the very different changes in the "face shape" of the Qing Emperor after entering the customs, and questions how the "four square faces" of Emperor Taiji and Shunzhi suddenly became the "sharpened faces" of Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong. What's so weird about that? From this, the above dancing associations are triggered.
Actually, this is not a problem. Qing Taizu Nurhaci is also a "sharpened face", grandchildren, great-grandchildren sometimes do not look like their fathers, but like grandfathers or grandfathers, inherited from generation to generation, what is wrong?
Questioning is understandable, but the motive is not pure, which is a different matter.
Behind the scenes of "Princess Zhuang's Back Black Cauldron" - the absurdity of history and the impetuosity of human nature
Ancient and modern Chinese and foreign history has a cold inferiority: when it comes to serious things, when it comes to accidents, it is accustomed to pushing the things that should be the responsibility of men to weak women: Meixi, Daiji, Baoji, Yang Yuhuan... Nothing less.
Even a well-behaved woman like Concubine Zhuang and a woman who does not go out of the door have been forced to choreograph a bunch of peach-colored news, setting a precedent for jokes.
Impetuous immersion, people's hearts are not ancient, listen to the "real", believe the "true", why is it so difficult?
