Di Renjie is very popular in recent years, because it seems that many film and television works love to talk about him. When it comes to film and television works related to the Tang Dynasty, Wu Zetian comes to mind first, followed by Di Renjie. Judging from the current situation, it should be because there are many historical materials, so Wu Zetian and Emperor Renjie will be made a big fuss. But in fact, the official history is not as wonderful as the film and television works, and the real Di Renjie certainly described it.
After Di Renjie's TV series became popular, it should be Li Yuanfang. Because Li Yuanfang's extraordinary martial arts is really amazing, is there really a Li Yuanfang in prehistoric times? The classic "Fiona Fang, what do you think?" Is it true?/You don't say.
Fiona Fang, a real one in history.
In fact, Li Yuanfang is a real person, but this Li Yuanfang is very different from Li Yuanfang around Di Renjie. According to historical speculation, Li Yuanfang was born in 1489 and died in 1553. Moreover, he was a famous honest official in the Ming Dynasty. He was honest, devoted to the welfare of the people and offended the dignitaries in North Korea. But in any case, the Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty are two dynasties, and there is really no intersection between them.
Li Yuanfang's life can be described as poverty. He knows everything from being an official to being a governor. This tube is equivalent to the deputy of the magistrate, and it is five products. During his tenure, Li Yuanfang devoted himself to remonstrating for the people and handled many old cases impartially. But this actually offended the powerful people in the DPRK.
Finally, Li Yuanfang resigned in a rage and returned to his hometown. After all, he died of depression and groaned without illness. Until the end, I just left a copy of An Ming Fu, which is a pity. Therefore, it can be seen that this Li Yuanfang has nothing to do with Li Yuanfang in Climbing Over the Roof.
Do Di Renjie's servants and wives really exist?
In Guanhua Liang's version of De Renjie, we can know that Di's housekeeper is called Di Chun, but as for Di's wife, it is not mentioned at all. So what is the personal life of Di Renjie? In fact, facing this problem, we are really helpless. Because there are few records about women in the official history, as long as ministers, bureaucrats and other royal family members can appear in the official history, they rarely appear in the official history. However, there are exceptions. For example, the wife of Fang, a famous figure in the Tang Dynasty, is an exception. Because she was too jealous, she became famous in previous history, so she was written into the official history.
So what exactly is Di Renjie's family like? Actually, Di Chun, we can't do textual research at all, but as for Di's wife, we know from many textual research that Di has three wives, each of whom gave birth to a son for him, while Di has no daughter. As for the details of his wife, we have no way of knowing.
It seems that it is still being processed. Otherwise, how could there be so many people whose history could not be confirmed before?
What's the connection between Shangguan Waner and Di Renjie?
In the TV series, there is another important person around Di Renjie, that is, Shangguan Waner, not a fabrication. Shangguan Waner's real identity is a female official around Wu Zetian, and she is known as the "female prime minister". Being reused by Wu Zetian, she is also quite influential in politics. However, there is a gap of more than 30 years between her and Di Renjie, so their contact is only official contact with North Korea.
