How did Princess Ningguo die in Ming Dynasty?

Ming dynasty princesses are a special group in the Ming dynasty royal family. They have never participated in politics, but they are inseparable from politics. Some even lost their love and youth for politics. Although they did not become the tools of the rulers like the princesses of the Han dynasty, they did not directly participate in the bloody battles like the princesses of the Tang dynasty, but they eventually became victims on the political altar. Who is "heartless is the emperor's home"?

1. while this unending sorrow goes on and on for ever-Princess Ningguo

Daming was in Hongwu for eleven years. A princess is married. She is the first daughter of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and Ma Shi, the famous queen with Bigfoot in history-Princess Ningguo. This expensive princess Ningguo is going to marry Mei Yin, the nephew of Hou Meisuzu, the founding hero of Runan.

Speaking of this Mei Xuma, he is the most valued by the emperor among Zhu Yuanzhang's 16 Xuma. He also studied politics in Shandong, and Zhu Yuanzhang praised him as "proficient in classics and history, worthy of being a Confucian Sect".

Princess Ningguo's marriage to such a husband and wife with both civil and military skills is also a perfect match. The husband and wife, accompanied by a piano and a crane, lived a happy life, and soon the princess gave birth to two sons for Mei Xuma, but they did not know that a huge wave was coming at them .. "Looking back at Mei Yin, he said," You are an honest and loyal person, and I am relieved to entrust your young master to you. "He took out an imperial edict to Mei Yin and said," If anyone dares to violate the destiny, you should kill him. "After that, he died suddenly.

Sure enough, Zhu Di, the prince of Yan, soon came down to fight for the throne, and Zhu Yunwen, the emperor of Jianwen, sent Mei Yin as the company commander, commanding 4, troops. This time, my husband and wife wrote to my brother, stating their righteousness and persuading him to withdraw. Zhu Di wrote back to let the princess move to the emergency exit, so as to avoid fire.

Zhu Di came to Huai 'an with his troops and sent an envoy to borrow the road from Mei Yan, but Mei Yan refused. Zhu Di was furious and sent an envoy to threaten: "Today, I am fighting for a clean army, which is a destiny, and you can't stop it." He said, "I only left your mouth to the prince to affirm the righteousness of the monarch and the minister." When the prince saw this, although he was furious, he was also very helpless, so he had to wade into Surabaya and go through Yangzhou.

In the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Di seized the throne, but Mei Yin still supported his troops and respected Huai. Knowing that this brother-in-law was his own menace, Zhu Di forced Princess Ningguo to write a bloody book to persuade Mei Yin to surrender. In desperation, he had to go back to Beijing. Zhu Di wanted to win over this talented husband-in-law, so he warmly comforted him and said, "The husband worked hard." Mei Yin was ungrateful, and coldly replied, "It's for nothing." Zhu Di was so angry that he had nothing to say for a moment, but he made up his mind to eradicate Mei Yin from now on.

Zhu Di instigated all his men to make suggestions. All of Mei Yin's soldiers were sent to Liaodong.

Zhu Di still felt unsatisfied and decided to kill him. In the winter of Yongle for three years, while Mei Yin was in court, Zhu Di secretly ordered Tan Shen, the former army commander, and Zhao Xi, the commander of a security guard, to squeeze Mei Yin off the bridge and drown him under it, saying that he threw himself into the water. However, he never expected that Xu Cheng, the commander, would soon expose the truth, so Zhu Di had to sentence Tan Zhao. Suddenly, he confessed the truth and said, "The emperor told us to do this, so why did he kill us?" Zhu Di suddenly became furious, knocked out all their teeth, and then executed them quickly.

When the poor princess Ningguo learned that her husband was killed by the emperor's brother's deadly trap, she went into the palace alone and grabbed Zhu Di's skirt and cried. Zhu Di had no choice but to say, "Xu died to get rid of thieves." "Later, I wrote a letter to the princess saying that I had nothing to do with Xu's death. I hope the princess won't blame him.

This may be the fate of Princess Ningguo. Even if she knew that her emperor brother was the mastermind, what could she do alone? Finally, Princess Ningguo lived the rest of her life alone until the reign of Xuande. Exactly: earth endures, heaven endures; some time both shall end, While this unending sorrow goes on and on for ever.

Many people think that < < Dream of Red Mansions > > describes the sad and beautiful love story of Meiyin, the Duke of Rong, and Princess Ningguo.

2. Take the example of Qi Mei-Chongqing Princess

Take the case of Qi Mei, which means that the husband and wife respect each other as guests, which is a kind of harmonious family relationship that China people yearn for most. It is not surprising if this kind of thing happens in ordinary families, because. Women are always oppressed, and they can't even mention Qi Mei. But if this happens between the princess and the husband-in-law, it may be unbelievable, because the princess is mostly a spoiled advocate in the palace, and after marriage, she relies on her family's power to bully and oppress the husband-in-law. A "golden branch" sings the sadness and anger of the wronged husband-in-law. There are few people who bully Xu. Among them, Ming Yingzong's eldest daughter, Princess Chongqing, is a model of Qi Mei.

This Chongqing princess is also quite prominent. She is the daughter of Emperor Yingzong and Empress Zhou, and she also has a younger brother, Xian Zong, who is an emperor. Perhaps it is a genetic mutation. This princess is very different from her arrogant father, capable and calculating mother and extremely strange younger brother. She almost embodies China's traditional sense of being a good wife and a good wife. Diligence and propriety.

Of course, God won't treat this good princess badly. God gave her a talented son-in-law.

The name of Chongqing princess's son-in-law is Zhou Jing, whose word is Dezhang, and he was from Anyang. In Ming history, he was said to be "studious and able to read", which means he was very learned and good at calligraphy. It is said that Yingzong also liked Zhou Jing very much and was around when he went out for a trip. It can be said that the two were childhood friends. Later, in the fifth year of Tianshun, Yingzong simply married Princess Chongqing to Zhou Jing.

Soon after, his father-in-law Yingzong died, and Xianzong acceded to the throne. He respected his sister and brother-in-law very much and ordered Zhou Jing to be in charge of the clan mansion. Zhou Jing lived up to his expectations, was smart and capable, and was honest and prudent in his official position. Apart from writing poems and calligraphy, he had nothing to do. I go to visit them every holiday. As a princess born in the palace, she even makes clothes for Xu personally, and gets up early to cook breakfast for him every week. In a princess house with a large number of servants, it is unimaginable for a princess to cook in person. Therefore, in the Ming history, it is said that "the sage of the Lord has never been seen in recent times."

This lingering love ended in Hongzhi for eight years, and Zhou Jing died. It can be said that they were very happy when they were promoted to distant places one after another.

Later, their son, Zhou Xian, also had a very good reputation as an official. It can be seen that Princess Chongqing is not only capable as a husband, but also a good godson.

3 "Why did you give birth to my imperial family? "-Princess Changping

Princess Changping's name is Zhu Meichuo, and she can be regarded as the most famous princess in the Ming Dynasty. In fact, as a princess, Princess Changping is the daughter of Emperor Zhu Youjian of Chongzhen and Queen Zhou. She has lived a carefree girlhood in the court for the first fifteen years of her life, and her father Zhu Youjian has even chosen a husband for her. Just waiting for the age to get married.

In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the life track of Princess Changping changed. In the spring of this year, although the spring scenery was pleasant, Li Zicheng's army had surrounded Beijing and quickly approached the palace.

On March 18th, the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the sky was gloomy and Beijing had fallen. Emperor Chongzhen saw that his Daming inheritance was going to be destroyed in his own hands, and he was in a trance. Then she was ordered to * * * *, and Queen Zhou cut herself in the palace. Chongzhen also ordered Yuan Guifei to * * *, and Yuan Guifei hanged herself. Unexpectedly, the rope was broken, and she actually recovered. Chongzhen picked up a sword and killed her.

Chongzhen, who was sexually active, killed Princess Akihito with a sword. When his sword pointed at Princess Changping, the poor princess cried and took her father's hand. Then rose a sword and cut off the princess's left arm grasping clothes, and the princess, who was physically weak, suddenly fainted. At this moment, eunuch Wang Chengen happened to come into the palace and witnessed all this, and quickly stopped the emperor from saying,' Your Majesty, you are so cruel.' Then, he asked the maid-in-waiting to help Princess Changping go down and help the emperor leave Shouning Palace. Soon, it was found that two bodies were hanging on the Long Live Mountain, one was Emperor Chongzhen. First, Wang Chengen.

Maybe it was her fate. Princess Changping woke up five days later, but things have changed. Li Zicheng arranged her at her grandfather Zhou Kui's house and didn't embarrass her.

A few days later, Li Zicheng also fled, and the Manchu who entered Beijing was wearing a mandarin jacket. This fierce regime change was in front of the princess who died in Ming Dynasty. How would she feel?

After that, she was even more shocked. A teenager walked into Zhou Kuifu, and Princess Changping recognized him at a glance as the prince of Daming, his own brother Zhu Cixian, and the two brothers wept bitterly. Before long, a group of Qing soldiers broke into Zhou Fu and took Zhu Cixian away. A few days later, Princess Changping heard that the teenager was an "impostor" The Qing court punished Princess Changping for impersonating the royal family of the Ming Dynasty.

Princess Changping, who had completely ruined her family, lost all hope. She wrote to the emperor shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty, saying, "Nine dead courtiers and concubines, I wish to be an empty king, but I am willing to become a monk." However, the Qing court did not allow her to become a monk and married her before Chongzhen died. Because the princess is not a man, no one will make her emperor, which will pose a threat to the Qing court, so she will be rewarded. However, the princess suffered great physical and mental trauma. She died just over a year after marriage and was five months pregnant when she died. The princess has never done anything good in her life, but she has never done anything bad. However, it has experienced all the most painful things in the world.

After Princess Changping died, a scholar wrote a eulogy:

Golden hair, jade with a chapter, lived in the royal family, and lived in the emperor's daughter. However, my heart is in love with Gong Wei, and my spirit hurts my way. Heavy cloud pen and ink, why the door to the gold list; Flying Lin hub forest, what does it mean to be a jade museum! Too weak to be sad, but passed away. When the fairy is raised, it is the year when Nong Li is married. At the beginning of the week, Fang Hua did not rest, alas! A surname jun mourned for the phoenix, but Shen Zhu was in the funeral. The silver platform steals drugs, and what year do you want to go to the moon? Incense in the golden palace, thinking of returning to the soul without skill.
