Chapter 717 True and False Emperor Ji
When he learned that Zhao Ji was visiting the humble house for the third time, Cai Jing had already driven out a group of idle people, including being pushed into the fire pit by himself. Now he seems to be a fairy prince-in-law Cai Yan, who does not know the government and only likes to race horses and plays balls on weekdays.
In addition, another noble guest came to my family in advance, calling the emperor the "Fan" Emperor Roufu.
Originally, Roufu was born to the same mother as Prince Yun. Their mother, Princess Wang, was the most grateful. She had three men and five women in total. Unfortunately, Wang Furong herself died during the Zhenghe period. Prince Yun was famous and was also prepared to use her biological sisters to support her. In the palace, she had to be trained by the right censor of the Lifang of the Secretariat and the Taichang Temple Minister. In fact, the recognition of Prince Yun was more important. However, her biological girl Roufu was ranked 20, and she was not cooperative in the palace, and she was over 16 years old and had not yet grown up. She had neither grown up nor married. Since she was like this, the emperors and princesses under her could not discuss marriage more than once. Therefore, the old eunuch Du said that she was most arrogant by her grandfather.
She was not in harmony with her brother, but she was close to the "Fifth Sister" Maode. It is rare to believe that Emperor Maode, the emperor, was born to Cui Yue'e. Cui Yue'e served in front of the imperial court without any charity during her lifetime and was deposed as a commoner. Perhaps the emperor regretted it after her death, and especially loved the "Fifth Sister". Therefore, Maode and Roufu, "Fifth Sister" and "Nianmei" were intimate, and it was not completely unreasonable. There were many twists and turns here, and no news from all parties could be combined, and the outline could be summarized. To Xu Chengyin, he did not hear and asked in advance, and went straight to the "Fifth Sister"'s house to paint a portrait of "Nianmei", which might also cause twists and turns from it without knowing it. Only then did he understand the wonderful things that friends would give him.
He saw Princess Maode, but he didn't mention Cai Yan's disagreement. So he asked her: "I don't know if I can be lucky enough to pay my respects to my husband and grandfather?"
Princess Maode stood up and said, "He?" She looked slightly angry, "I went to play polo with King Ji early in the morning. In the afternoon, I had to take a bath and drink tea in the warm room of the palace. In the evening, I had to drink and listen to the drums, and I had to have a night banquet. When I got home, I couldn't help but get drunk and I could only fall asleep."
The Princess Roufu, Zhao Duofu, also known as Zhao Huanhuan, Zhao Yuanyuan, her mother, Concubine Yisu, Wang, and the 20th daughter of Zhao Ji, the Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty. She was 17 years old at the time of the Jingkang Incident and was not married. After the Jingkang Incident, she was captured and headed north.
In the winter of the first year of Jingkang (1126), the Jin soldiers besieged Bianjing for the second time (now Kaifeng). In the second year of Jingkang (1127), the Jin army generals Hui and Qin, as well as concubines, princesses, royal relatives, noble relatives, and ministers, about 3,000 people escorted the north. Among them, women accounted for a large proportion. The more famous ones were the second queen of Song Huizong, Zheng, the second queen of Song Qinzong, Zhu, the biological mother of Song Gaozong, Wei, the first wife of Song Gaozong, and the first wife of Roufu Emperor. Roufu Emperor was only seventeen years old when he was captured and went north. He was the oldest princess of Song Huizong, and the Jin soldiers therefore attached great importance to her and planned to
The virgin princess was presented to Jin Taizong. According to some unofficial historical records, on the way north, Emperor Roufu was inevitably inseparable from the fate of humiliation, and the Jin general who insulted her was also cruelly killed for the woman left to the emperor without any intention. After arriving in the Jin Kingdom, Emperor Roufu was solemnly presented to Jin Emperor Jin Taizong Wu Qibu as a concubine. Perhaps Emperor Roufu was not very beautiful, perhaps because she was in a weak body after being humiliated many times, or perhaps because she was not good at flattering and offended Jin Taizong. In short, Emperor Jin Taizong did not have any interest in her, but directly sent her to the Shangjing Washing Clothes Courtyard.
The laundry courtyard is a place where women engage in laundry and other labor services. It is also used for the royal family to select women and shelter palace maids. "Jingkang Baishi Jianzheng": "The nineteenth girl Zhao Saiyue... traveled north from Shousheng Academy everywhere, and entered the laundry courtyard in August of the sixth year. Saiyue... was granted the second concubine in the first year of Huangtong." "The twenty-year girl Zhao Jingu... traveled north from Shousheng Academy everywhere, and entered the laundry courtyard in August of the sixth year... was granted the second concubine in the first year of Jingu's throne."
After several years in the washing clothes garden, Emperor Roufu was obtained by King Gai Tian Wanyan Zongxian. Wanyan Zongxian was not interested in Emperor Roufu, but did not insult her much. Instead, he chose a man named Xu Huan from the Han people who were placed in the Five Kingdoms City and married Emperor Roufu to him. Emperor Roufu died around the eleventh year of Shaoxing (1141), and she was only thirty-one years old. According to the "History of the Song Dynasty: Biography of Princesses", "Rufu was in the Five Kingdoms City, and Xu Huan died. Roufu died in the eleventh year of Shaoxing. Those from the coffin came with their bones and buried them, and posthumously conferred the title of Princess of Heguo." This is the trace of the real Emperor Roufu left in history - as miserable as all women when the country was destroyed and their families were destroyed, and they were a victim of men's incompetence.
There is also a historical mystery here: when Emperor Roufu was humiliated in the north, a Emperor Roufu suddenly appeared in the Central Plains. In the fourth year of Jianyan (1130), when Emperor Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty suppressed bandits, a woman among the captured bandits claimed to be Emperor Roufu. Emperor Roufu was the emperor's sister, so she was immediately sent to Lin'an. The woman claimed to have fled back from the Jin Dynasty, and experienced wind, frost, rain and snow.
Emperor Gaozong did remember that Song Huizong had a princess named Huanhuan, who was born to Concubine Yisu and was named Roufu Emperor Princess. However, after many years of separation, he could no longer remember the appearance of the princess, so he ordered the old palace maid to check it out. The old palace maids felt that this woman looked very much like the Roufu Emperor Princess back then. When asked about the old things in the palace, she could also answer it perfectly. There was only one questionable place. The woman had a pair of big feet, not the slender feet of Roufu Emperor Princess. Regarding this question, the woman explained in tears: "The Jin man drove away like a cattle and sheep, escaped in a while, and ran here barefoot, and ran here barefoot thousands of miles. How could she still use her slender feet to still look like the same as before?" The story follows the record of "Helin Yulu": "The Roman Princess came and was very suspicious of her feet. She frowned and said: The Jin man drove away and walked thousands of miles, but how could she be the same again? The emperor felt sorry for her."
Emperor Gaozong of Song felt that it was reasonable, especially because the woman could call out the nickname of Emperor Gaozong of Song, so she no longer doubted it and issued an edict to let her enter the palace and awarded the title of Princess Fuguo. She also chose Gao Shirong, the Yongzhou Defense Envoy, as her son-in-law, and gave her a dowry of 18,000. Since then, she has been favored and has been rewarded with 479,000 yuan.
After the Southern Song Dynasty signed the "Shaoxing Peace Agreement" with the Jin Kingdom, Emperor Gaozong's biological mother, Concubine Wei Xian, was released by the Jin Kingdom. The mother and son reunite, and cried with joy. After Concubine Wei returned to the court, she was honored as "Empress Dowager Xianren" by Emperor Gaozong of Song. After Empress Dowager Wei returned to the country, she couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Roufu has died of illness in the Jin Kingdom, why is there another Roufu?" Emperor Gaozong of Song Dynasty talked about the situation where Roufu escaped from Jin. Empress Dowager Wei said, "The Jin people are laughing at you! You said that you bought a fake wrong, and the real Roufu has long been dead."
After hearing his mother's words, Emperor Gaozong of Song was furious and immediately arrested Princess Roufu and interrogated him. After being severely tortured, Princess Roufu was irrefutable and had to offer one by one.
It turned out that she was originally a wandering woman in Bianjing, named Jingshan, and was born quite beautiful. After the Bianjing was captured, she was plundered to the north by the riots. On the way, she met a palace maid named Zhang Xier. Zhang Xier had served in the palace of Concubine Yisu (Birth Mother of Emperor Roufu), and knew many secrets of the palace, and told Jingshan to listen to them one by one, especially Jingshan's appearance and temperament were very similar to Emperor Roufu. Jingshan was very moved by this coincidence, so she began to remember various secrets of the palace, and deliberately imitated the princess form that Zhang Xier said. Later, Jingshan experienced in the war.
In a twists and turns, he was abducted and trafficked three times, and was finally captured by the bandit Chen Zhong and forced to marry a small bandit. When the Song official army suppressed the bandits, he caught Jingshan and planned to kill her in the name of the bandits. In order to survive, Jingshan called herself the Princess Roufu. Seeing Jingshan's demeanor, Song official army was really scared, so he sent her to Lin'an. After Jingshan successfully deceived Emperor Gaozong of Song, he gained wealth for more than ten years. Unexpectedly, the man's plan was not as good as the God's plan. Empress Dowager Wei returned to the capital and told the matter out loud. Jingshan had no way to hide it, so she had to admit it honestly.
After Emperor Gaozong of Song knew that Emperor Roufu was indeed a fake, he ordered the fake princess to behead the fake princess in Dongshi. The most unlucky one was Gao Shirong, who first married Emperor Roufu, and because Emperor Roufu was deposed as the title of Prince Consort Duwei for the fake, people were ridiculed and said: "The Duwei has always been like when Maitreya was born; when he went to the world, he went to the Tathagata to eat porridge."
Before, the eunuch Feng Yi once verified that Emperor Roufu was the truth, and was also implicated. "History of the Song Dynasty, Biography of Eunuchs, Feng Yi" records: "First, when the fake Emperor Roufu came, he called himself the Prince's Concubine Ji Nu. Yi said that he had been with the concubine, and the emperor sent him to check it out and was cheated, so he told the truth. When he realized the matter, he sat on the test and checked it out and sent it to Zhaozhou to manage it, and he was finally exempted from marriage with the Empress Dowager."
So is this Roufu Emperor authentic? In the eyes of the wise man, the Roufu Emperor authentic is very likely to be true. We all know that pretending to be poor and pretending to be rich are very difficult. Things that have not been experienced can't be learned by just hearing that they are just pretending to be princesses. Isn't Xiaoyanzi from "Return of the Condor Heroes" a good example?
Although the fake Princess Roufu was killed, there were rumors among the people, and there were many people who complained about her. At that time, some historians believed that the murdered Princess Roufu was actually a real princess. The reason why it was exposed was because after Emperor Gaozong of Song, the biological mother of Emperor Gaozong, came back from the north, she was worried that Princess Roufu told him about all kinds of ugly things that had been humiliated and abused in the north, so she threatened Emperor Gaozong of Song to kill Princess Roufu to silence him. Emperor Gaozong of Song had no feelings for Princess Roufu and was ordered by his mother.
, and the Emperor Roufu was sacrificed. Notes such as "The Record of the Four Dynasties" and "The Essays of the Country" all record such statements. The powerful evidence is that when Emperor Roufu first came to join, many old palace servants and eunuch Feng Yi decided that the princess was real. Even if the fake princess looks like her, if she is not sure, these people would never dare to say anything. However, these people later changed their words one after another, and the princess believed that it was fake, it was because of severe torture.
Let’s stop talking. Emperor Roufu didn’t expect that after marrying her in the past, she was just like the resentful woman in the boudoir. She was naturally afraid of the boring life of marrying someone else’s wife in the future. She was born in an imperial family and had no choice but to have a marriage at all. Roufu remembered that when Maode married Cai Yan, Grand Master Cai once asked the bride to avoid paying homage to his uncle and aunt. He was not allowed to be approved by the emperor. This matter has become a good story in this dynasty and has been written into the history of the country.
In fact, Cai Jing's method was still to "want to take the aunt and the other. Since he knew that this dynasty governed the world with filial piety, the emperor did not care about Maode's reason for Maode's sake, and he did not ask her to pay homage to her uncle, so he could only comment on what he asked for. It was only because of this group that it was rumored that the Grand Master treated his wife with family rules, and the prince-consort had no need to worry about what he admired as the princess, and that was to be the princess in the same way as the husband treating his wife.
Zhao Huanhuan was already sitting down casually under Zhao Fujin, picked up the fragrant tea next to her, took a sip, and the fragrance remained on her teeth. She couldn't help but drink more. The tea seemed to be more refreshing than what she usually drank. This Roufu Emperor Princess did not like sweets, but liked to drink tea. Naturally, thanks to her father who also loved tea. When she was a child, she liked to grab a handful of tea leaves from the teacup and chew it in her mouth. Once she swallowed up a batch of newly tributed West Lake Longjing. At that time, Zhao Ji felt so distressed that he wanted to vomit blood. After growing up, some of his temperament was very compatible with Zhao Ji, so he was even more doting towards this Roufu Emperor Princess.
Zhao Fujin, who was standing beside him, seemed to see the strange look on Zhao Huanhuan's face: "This is Yu Qianchun, which just shipped from Fuzhou, and the last batch of this year. You are lucky."
"Fifth Sister, haha." Zhao Huanhuan looked flattering.
"You, are you a mouse? You don't know who can support you in the future."
"You have to care." Zhao Huanhuan stared at the other party coquettishly. It would be fine if she didn't look at it, but she felt an inexplicable feeling of depression in her heart.
Zhao Huanhuan stared at the appearance of the fifth sister as beautiful as before, but she was full and looked like a young woman. A faint gray line seemed to appear on her eyebrows. She and she seemed to have become people from two worlds. Originally, the concubines of the emperor were selected by many ways, and each generation was like this. Since the mother was like this, not every princess born was a sank fish and geese, but it was rare to be outstanding in appearance. However, the contrast between the fifth sister before and after she got married was so big that Zhao Huanhuan, who was not very familiar with the world, could not accept it in her heart.
But at this moment, Maode and Roufu know each other but not why it is the woman's status, which is already going downhill.
Let’s start with the royal family: Since the beginning of the country, since Empress Dowager Du forced Taizu to be inherited by Taizong, but his brother did not establish a son, his mother participated in politics because of his heir. This is actually a feature of the Song Dynasty’s national tradition. Unexpectedly, Zhezong was in power for the throne in the years. The Empress Dowager was in charge of the emperor and ruled the country from behind the scenes and succeeded in his life. He had been in three dynasties. However, because of the recent party struggles, his subordinates still dared to pursue her and punish her. Please pursue her as a commoner. Although Empress Liu (the romantic Empress Dowager Chongen) was given the title of Empress Dowager, she was forced to commit suicide. This is something that has never happened in the ages. Besides, the lower class of the country: if there are women born in the people, they will follow their qualities and teach their skills, prepare scholars and officials to pick up and entertain the attendants. Later, the imperial capital Bianjing has many brothels, and recently the trend of foot binding is approaching the upper and lower levels.
