Why was the Jiajing Emperor, who was practicing Dan Xiuxian, almost strangled to death by the palace women?

Let's talk about a strange thing in history, a unique thing, the palace maid killed the emperor.

This happened to the Jiajing Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, whose name was Zhu Houxuan. That's a good idea, but why? Because originally the imperial throne could not be his turn, the emperor was his cousin, that is, the famous Zhengde Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, some said to be the most faint- and pathless, and some said that it was the most absurd Emperor Zhu Houzhao.

This Zhengde Emperor died suddenly when he was twenty-nine years old, and he died without leaving a son, and no one took over. The imperial court thought about it internally, and finally decided to give the throne to Ming Wuzong's cousin, Zhu Houxuan, who was only fourteen years old at the time. In this way, Zhu Housong entered the capital and ascended the throne as emperor. That is, we are familiar with the Ming Dynasty Emperor Jiajing.

There has always been a saying that this Jiajing Emperor was the wisest emperor in the history of the Ming Dynasty, but he was a little improper and has always been praised and deprecated by him.

However, to tell the truth, in the early days of his reign, his performance was still good, many times to reduce the taxes of the common people, pay attention to the rest and recuperation of the people, so that the Ming Dynasty once appeared in the Zhongxing period.

There was also an increase in military strength, eliminating the Wokou on the southeast coast. It has also developed rapidly in terms of culture and technology. This period was at the beginning of his reign, under his rule. The Ming Dynasty showed a thriving appearance, known in history as Jiajing Zhongxing, and performed well.

But slowly, the situation in the DPRK and China has stabilized, and the country's strength has also developed. Unfortunately, this situation did not last long. By the middle of Jiajing.

His experience in major state affairs became less and less, and he began to indulge in Taoism, especially his reuse of the traitorous minister Yan Song for more than twenty years. As a result, the achievements of Jiajing's early reforms were almost in vain, the officials in the DPRK and China were corrupt, and many meritorious Officials were framed and convicted.

So what did Jiajing do at this time? I just said that Jiajing was addicted to Taoism at this time and did not care about any major state affairs at all. It is not to ask, only to indulge in cultivating immortal alchemy.

The Jiajing Emperor was addicted to cultivation at this time, and he fantasized about immortality every day, so he also accepted the advice of an old Taoist monk named Tao Zhongwen.

There is no way for the west wind to lead the way, which can help him become an immortal, and the art of collecting yin and supplementing yang can help him live forever. So the Jiajing Emperor began. Fascinated by Taoism, he once took his words as truth. In order to be able to achieve the so-called west wind to guide the way, the Jiajing Emperor ordered the people in the palace to plant a lot of plantains in the imperial garden, and every morning they got up to quench their thirst with the nectar on the leaves.

In order to ensure that there was enough nectar for the Jiajing Emperor to quote the palace women in this palace every day to collect dew early every day, it was very hard.

This Xifeng road is also counted, and there is also a technique of collecting yin and supplementing yang, which is even more incredible. So how to collect yin and yang? There are some that need to be picked.

What about a thirteen- or fourteen-year-old virgin girl? Putting their sperm into the medicinal bone marrow as a medicinal primer sounds a little scary.

And in order to ensure the surprise tilt and purity of the palace women, these girls can only eat mulberry leaves and nectar during menstruation, and cannot eat other things.

Where is this? What is even more excessive is that when menstrual blood is insufficient, these palace women will be forced to take drugs to induce blood. Therefore, many young palace women are physically.

It was greatly hurt, and even some palace women died of blood collapse due to excessive medication.

Not only that, the Jiajing Emperor was also moody, and he whipped the palace women if he was not happy. It was found that under this torture, the palace ladies were physically and mentally exhausted. There is a danger of death at any time in the palace.

The palace ladies understood that if they could not think of any more countermeasures, I was afraid that sooner or later they would die at the hands of this emperor. Therefore, at this time, there was a palace maid named Yang Jinying. There were also a dozen other palace ladies who joined forces in private, and they joined forces to see if they could kill this emperor. They planned to do it while the emperor was sleeping, and then Yang Jinying asked another palace maid, Yang Yuxiang, to find a rope and make a rope noose, ready to strangle the emperor.

The ming emperor's residence was the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City, which could not be given to him except the emperor and the empress, and the concubines could only sleep with the emperor on a regular basis, right? Unless the emperor allowed him to live, then after the night of the accompaniment, he would have to leave the Qianqing Palace during the Jiajing period to set up a total of nine rooms in the back.

Each room is also divided into two floors, each with a staircase, each with three beds, either above or below, a total of twenty-seven beds, where the emperor can choose to live. This means that the emperor is afraid of assassination, so every day where the emperor sleeps, no one knows that this setting has greatly enhanced the safety of the emperor.

But others don't know that the palace maid who served her knows of course, right? Who can defend against the palace maids who are guarding her side? It was this group of palace ladies who began to act late one night.

At that time, the historical records once recorded that in the early morning of October 21, 2001, Jiajing, more than a dozen palace women decided to say that the Jiajing Emperor strangled him to death while he was asleep. Yang Yuxiang, a palace maid, handed a thick rope to another palace maid, Su Chuanyao, and this rope was a silk flower taken from the honor guard. The rubbing became very thick, and this Su Chuanyao handed the rope sleeve to Yang Jinying. Then, after Jiaxing fell asleep, several girls rushed up to the emperor. Pressing the bed, several people forcefully put the rope sleeve around the neck of the Jiajing Emperor, and one of them even directly pinched his neck. The Jiajing Emperor had slept soundly. This was suddenly attacked, frightened from the dream at once, just about to shout for help, but was stuffed into the mouth by the palace ladies in a mess of rags and could not shout. There was no way to continue to happen, and the palace ladies worked together to suppress the Jiajing Emperor. Although the woman was not very energetic, she could not stand the crowd, so she stuffed the emperor's head into the rope noose. He strangled him hard, trying to strangle him to death. But believing in the emperor, believing in the emperor is also a struggle for the death, and the struggle is continuous. But after all, it is a woman, and it is all a little girl.

The palace ladies' physical strength slowly could not keep up. Although the Jiajing Emperor was suppressed by them at this time, these palace ladies were all maidens after all, right? Plus for a long time.

There is not much strength for those who do not have enough to eat and are not warm, the body is not good, the physical strength is not good, just in the panic, this girl together, there is a girl who hit another jiexiang on the rope. Hard, the result did not come to think bad, what happened, the original two sisters were entangled together, this is a dead knot. The ladies of the palace are working hard.

That's not going to kill either. In this way, some palace women were afraid and anxious. In a hurry, a palace maid pulled out the hairpin in her hair and stabbed at the emperor.

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more chaotic, some palace ladies were afraid. At this time, in the panic, a palace maid named Zhang Jinlian ran out in a panic. Just run outside, where to run? I ran to Kunming Palace. Kunning Palace was the empress, lived here, ran there, shouted that the queen was not good, and someone assassinated the emperor.

The queen was asleep, and when she heard about this, she quickly led her men to rescue her. This queen and this queen brought people, and frightened the palace ladies into fleeing. At this time, the empress found that the Jiajing Emperor had been pierced with blood all over his body. Having already fainted, he quickly sent someone to untie the rope, summoned a doctor to heal the emperor, and immediately ordered the guards to arrest these rebellious palace women.

It took a good half a day for the Jiajing Emperor to wake up with a sigh of relief. Although he was lucky to survive, he was frightened and was covered with wounds. It was already dying, and coupled with the kind of elixir that the Jiajing Emperor had eaten all day, the doctors were too frightened to take medicine. What if you are not cured and you are healed and die?

In the end, it was a bold doctor who risked being killed to give the emperor several hours a day before the emperor returned to normal.

After this incident, the empress took advantage of her own escort, and added herself as the lord of the six palaces, who had the right to handle the affairs of the palace.

The next day, when the Jiajing Emperor was not yet fully awake, he took the opportunity to falsely preach the Holy Will. What holy will is falsely preached? Just put him in the eyes that he usually doesn't like. Several of the pet concubines around the Jiajing Emperor were all executed. Together with the sixteen palace ladies in this incident, they were sentenced to a temporary trip. Even the families of the palace women were implicated and executed together.

Besides, after the Jiajing Emperor woke up, he knew that his favorite concubine Cao Shi had been executed, and Cao Shi did this thing with his support, which was impossible. Although I felt some doubts, after all, I had not yet come out of this shadow, and since people were already dead, I did not investigate the matter deeply.

After this palace, the Jiajing Emperor, far from realizing his absurdity and fainting, believed that the reason why he was able to live without dying was because he was blessed by heaven. As a result, the obsession with Taoism intensified, and almost all his thoughts and energies were focused on cultivating immortals and alchemy. It is even more disregarded for the affairs of the DPRK and China, which has led to the chaos of the DPRK and the DPRK. This Jiajing ZTE turned from prosperity to decline.

The history of the palace, initiated by sixteen young palace women, is called the Palace of Nongyin. It was the instinctive desire of these palace ladies to survive that made them risk such a great danger of death. To fight against the incomparably noble emperor, this also left a heavy mark in the history books.

Moreover, after this incident, the Jiajing Emperor had no intention of repenting, but intensified his efforts to collect Lingzhi to build a palace. At the same time, a large number of palace girls were selected.

The history books record that only the four elections recorded in Jiajing's twenty-sixth, thirty-first, thirty-fourth, and forty-three years were elected to the people's women, and 1,080 women were elected.

But there was a little bit of a choice between the young and the young, the little girls between the ages of eight and fourteen, and there were no more assassinations. One is because of increased precautions. The other, of course, is that these new girls are too young to rise up and resist, so they have to be at the mercy of them.
