Song Renzong's Historical Evaluation of Empress Cao
In Qingping Music, Jiang Shuying, a great beauty, plays the role of Cao Queen, which is graceful and beautiful. In fact, in history, as a woman, the biggest regret of Queen Cao is her appearance: no beauty and plain appearance. This is also an important reason why Song Renzong doesn't like her (another important reason is that Cao Shi was chosen by the Empress Dowager and ministers), because Song Renzong not only has a good ability to govern the country, but also has high requirements for women, that is, as a woman around him, she must be beautiful.

Apart from her unchangeable appearance, Queen Cao Can is impeccable. Let's talk about her origin first. Empress Cao came from the famous "Town Ding Cao Shi" in the Northern Song Dynasty, and her grandfather was Cao Bin, a famous soldier who successively pacified Houshu, Nantang and Northern Han. My younger brother, Cao Shu, is one of the famous Eight Immortals "Cao Guojiu" who wears a red robe, wears a jade belt around his waist and holds a water board. Take a look. Queen Cao and the immortal have become relatives, and they are already the best among the noble families.

The emperor hated the Queen so much, but Queen Cao Can still sat in the palace for 28 years, which shows that the Queen is a very smart person. Speaking of wisdom, I have to mention "Gong Dou". Song Renzong is an emperor who likes women. In addition to Guo (the first queen, who was deposed for beating the emperor) and Cao, there are also famous concubines with surnames such as Miao Guifei, Zhou Guifei, Yang Guifei and Feng Guifei. After Cao was in charge of the harem, the biggest competitor was Zhang Guifei, a beautiful woman. Zhang Guifei is very loved by Injong, and Injong also protects her blindly.

In the life of Cao Empress, Song Renzong didn't appreciate her talent and always wanted to abolish her. However, due to the virtue and wisdom of Queen Cao, Song Renzong's plot against him never succeeded. But as husband and wife, Song Renzong has no real feelings for her. Song Renzong had three sons (all dead) and thirteen daughters (only five survived) in her life, while Queen Cao was childless. From this point of view, the ending of Queen Cao is tragic. But after three dynasties, she was honored as queen, empress dowager and empress dowager. As a harem woman, she is successful and lucky.

Empress Cao's ending can be summed up in this sentence: get on the right sedan chair and marry the wrong lang. Why do you say that? The so-called sedan chair pair is because with the background, personality and wisdom of Queen Cao, she is fully qualified to hold the post of Queen Cao. The so-called marrying the wrong lang is because she married a person who naturally dislikes her, is biased against her and rejects her, that is.
