After 45 years of special favor, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty had 10 children, all of whom were born to her. What is the charm of Queen Dugu?

In ancient society, any talented person was not a group of concubines, even ordinary people were three wives and four concubines, not to mention the ruler of the dynasty, not to mention three thousand harems, at least in groups. Empresses, concubines, concubines, beauties, gifted scholars, etc. These harem beauties also tried their best to please the emperor. However, only the emperor of this dynasty favored only one person. Even if there were other concubines, he dared not surpass them, and he did not forget his promise to his wife who was in trouble.

As the saying goes, "A friend in need is a friend indeed", whether in modern or ancient times, this sentence can really be embodied in each of us. Especially between husband and wife, if a woman can accompany you through the most difficult time in life, then you must cherish her. Because such a woman is not only a noble person in your life, but also a person who can share joys and sorrows with you all your life.

Meeting such a woman is the greatest blessing in life. Emperor Wendi of Sui met such a woman. She not only shared joys and sorrows with Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty, but also gave him a lot of support and help in the process of establishing the Sui Dynasty. It can be said that she is the hero who helped Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty to establish the Sui Dynasty. Finally, she became the founding queen of the Sui Dynasty, known as the lonely queen.

Du Guxin's daughter, Queen Dugu, became the wife of Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty at the age of fourteen. Subsequently, Emperor Wu of Zhou died, Emperor Wendi of Sui usurped the throne, won the Northern Zhou Dynasty, established the Sui Dynasty, and separated his wife and children. As the first lady, she naturally retired to the second line and gave birth to five children and five daughters for Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty. Her five sons, the eldest son Yong Yang, were named Crown Prince, and the other four were also named kings. All five sons were born to the lonely queen, which was very rare in ancient times when wives and concubines were in groups, and people could not help talking about it. However, Emperor Wendi was also very proud. He proudly said: "The former emperors had too many wives and concubines. They often deposed their eldest son and set up their youngest son because they preferred the son born to a favorite concubine. My five emperors were all born to the queen, and there will definitely be no competition for the position of the prince and killing each other. "

Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty was the founding emperor of Sui Dynasty, and he was also the fourteenth grandson of Yang Zhen, the commander of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the son of Yang Zhong, the governor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. However, after Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty came to power, the situation of Samiya and Sixth Hospital had already converged a lot. There is only one reason: he has a jealous wife-Queen Dugu.

Queen Dugu is a Xianbei nationality, and the nationality is the Northern Zhou Dynasty. She was born after a famous family in 544 AD. Her father was one of the core figures of the famous Guanlong military group in the Northern Dynasties, and her mother Cui Shi was also a talented woman of noble birth. In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Queen Dugu was the only wife of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty. So, why is this happening?

Princess royal naturally didn't want to get married at this time. Moreover, the situation at that time was very turbulent, and the emperor in the dragon chair changed more frequently. However, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty and Queen Dugu, as if they were destined to meet each other, will eventually meet. Then at the age of fourteen, Queen Dugu married Yang Zhong's eldest son, Emperor Wendi Sui. It's a pity that the political struggle between my father and Yuwen Hu, an important official in the imperial court at that time, involved the Yang family. In the end, his father Yang Zhong had no choice but to commit suicide. At this time, Yang's family was not only depressed, but also her husband was suspected by powerful people.

However, Queen Dugu was smart since childhood and learned things quickly. She not only has her own unique views on politics, but also is very strict with herself. After this incident, she has been accompanying her husband, but the cruel shadow of political struggle has not affected the feelings of the young couple.

Later, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty finally established the Sui Dynasty and became the founding emperor with his strategy and opportunity. The Queen Dugu is still wholeheartedly with her husband. She advocated frugality and vigorously developed the economy of the Sui Dynasty. At that time, the country was rich and the people were safe. At that time, people even called Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty and Queen Dugu "two saints" because Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty could not be proclaimed emperor without this wife.

However, the Queen Dugu is very jealous and is a famous "jealous lady". She thinks that Jiangshan was shot down by herself and her husband. At the beginning of their acquaintance, Emperor Wendi of Sui also promised: "Dugu will be the only wife in her life." However, there is no one who gets something for nothing, let alone an emperor who is expensive as the son of heaven. According to records, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty made a major "mistake" when Queen Dugu was in her fifties.

At that time, Queen Dugu was seriously ill, and Emperor Wendi of Sui felt that the other party didn't have the energy to take care of himself, so he went to pamper a maid-in-waiting Wei Chi who he had long admired. Who knows, Queen Dugu is full of eyeliner in the palace and knows the emperor's every move like the back of his hand. "You can't allow others to sleep beside the sofa." After this incident was discovered by Queen Dugu, she directly executed Miss Wei Chi. This move also led to the back of Queen Dugu as the first strange jealousy in history.

Emperor Wendi was obviously unhappy when he learned about this, but she didn't do anything to Queen Dugu, just ran away from home and calmed down for a while. Later, Queen Dugu asked the minister to help lobby and persuade the emperor to return to the DPRK. Finally, Emperor Wendi went down the steps and returned to the imperial court.

From an individual point of view, the jealousy of Queen Dugu is rooted in love. Some psychologists believe that true love does not exclude some emotions that can be classified as sexual jealousy. Dugu, who is infatuated with Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty, hopes that her husband's love can also focus on himself and really live a monogamous life. "Sex is essentially exclusive ... Marriage based on sex is essentially individual marriage."

Even though there were numerous harem beauties, Emperor Wendi of Sui never married a concubine when Queen Dugu was alive, so Dugu gave birth to five sons and five daughters. In 609 AD, the 59-year-old Queen Dugu died. Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty took it for granted, turned his wife into a Miao Shan Bodhisattva and buried herself. Even, Emperor Wendi of Sui said to the dying Queen Dugu: "When the soul knows, we will meet there."

It can be said that the tone of "a philosopher dedicated to the country" established by Sui Shu has profoundly influenced the evaluation of Queen Dugu by later generations. Even so, the official history admitted for the first time that Queen Dugu was a wife who had been loved by her husband all her life: "The emperor didn't become a hero, and she was very early, kind and harmonious, and never wavered!" "It is never easy to be polite and prepared."

"Great-grandfather and the latter are in love" and "Great-grandfather and Gu Hou are deeply in love". That is to say, after the death of Queen Dugu, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty braved the cold in his later years to travel hundreds of miles in person, just to send his beloved wife to Tailing Cemetery.

I think at the beginning, he took back Du Gushi, the bride of 14 years. Since then, this woman has become a part of his flesh and blood. Now, separated by Yin and Yang, he will accompany his beloved Queen Dugu on the last journey of his life.

It is said that after the death of Queen Dugu, Emperor Wendi was in great pain. In memory of his beloved wife, he built a Zen temple. Moreover, the only Buddha tooth of Sakyamuni was sent to the temple for support. "Ask the world what love is, and teach people to be committed to life and death", which is the most touching love story throughout the ages. It's not a vicissitudes of life, nor a sunset. How do you know that it's the hardest to stay? Two years later, Emperor Wendi of Sui also died. Before he died, he chose to be buried in Tailing with Dugu.

Throughout her life, Queen Dugu made great contributions to the politics of the Sui Dynasty, and she also proposed the earliest monogamy in China. As for why Queen Dugu insists on monogamy, she insists on "noble birth" in addition to her inner "cleanliness addiction". People think that being a concubine is more noble than being a concubine. Therefore, Yong Yang's cruelty to the palace completely angered and subverted the three views of Queen Dugu. Queen Dugu not only insisted on monogamy herself, but also asked her sons and ministers to insist on it. If the first wife is infertile, she can take a concubine. In addition, this provision must not be violated.

It can be said that the Queen Dugu in the feudal period was a special case of that period, because she was brilliant and resourceful, not only playing the role of a good wife and mother, but also being the first queen to personally participate in the formulation of the "female official system". It can be said that Queen Dugu has a far-reaching influence on later generations, especially in safeguarding women's rights and interests, and she has made outstanding contributions to this.
