Virtuous, dignified and polite, and kind-hearted, this is everyone's evaluation of Hu Shanxiang, the queen of the Ming Dynasty.
Such a woman, whether now or before, is very popular and lives happily at ordinary times, but her final destination is ruined.
In the Ming dynasty, in order to reduce the phenomenon of consorts' disorderly administration, the emperor no longer asked for suitable families and dignitaries, but chose from some civilian families.
Hu Shanxiang's father is a Royal Guards. She was beautiful since she was a child. Because she knew the book like the back of her hand, she was quickly noticed. 10 years old, because of its good quality, it was chosen by Judy to enter the palace.
After entering the palace, Judy has always raised her as a granddaughter. Her character and cultivation are excellent, far higher than other women. Later, Judy asked Zhu Zhanji to marry her as a princess. After she ascended the throne, she naturally became a queen. She was 24 years old that year. Many people thought that she would become a generation of sages and celebrities, but she was abolished two years later.
Many people are sorry to know that she was abolished, but they are also puzzled. I don't know why she was abolished, because she was so virtuous and naive. There are many reasons why she was abolished, mainly three.
Number one: Have a strong and difficult opponent.
She has always had a very powerful and difficult opponent, and that person is Sun Guifei.
Sun Guifei and Zhu Zhanji are childhood friends, and the other party likes her very much. Her experience is legendary, and she was recommended to the palace by her grandmother Zhu Zhanji. When she was a child, she was also a beautiful woman, which attracted many people's attention. Grandma Zhu Zhanji discovered her existence. After I saw it, I was shocked by nature. I thought it was a rare beauty and recommended her to the palace.
Sun Guifei entered the palace one year earlier than her. Although I like Hu better in the process of cultivating them, I think she has the demeanor of a queen in both appearance and personality, but she always has a special liking for Sun Guifei.
In ancient times, children generally did not have the right to speak about marriage, and more were the words of matchmakers, which was hard to resist. When Zhu Zhanji came of age, Judy decided to marry Hu Shanxiang.
Although Zhu Zhanji was very dissatisfied, he didn't dare to defy his grandfather's orders, and he had been waiting for an opportunity. Later, Judy died, and his father died less than a year after he took office. He became emperor and then abolished her.
Second: I only gave birth to two daughters, not a prince.
The first thing Zhu Zhanji did when he came to power was to canonize Sun Guifei as the queen.
He made this decision, in addition to his love for Sun Guifei, there is a more important reason that the other party gave birth to a son for him, while Hu Shanxiang only gave birth to two daughters and never gave birth to a prince.
At that time, there were three kinds of unfilial, none of which was the biggest. This does not mean that there will be no offspring in the future, but no sons. In the palace, this kind of thinking is more serious. If some favored concubines don't have sons, her status will be greatly reduced or even left out in the cold. And sometimes some ladies-in-waiting accidentally gave birth to a son to the emperor, so her status will be greatly improved.
Mother is more expensive than son, and Sun Guifei is more popular.
But Hu Huanghou never made any big mistakes. In the eyes of ministers and people, she has a good reputation and is a kind and virtuous queen. If she is abolished casually, it may cause dissatisfaction or resistance from others. Zhu Zhanji racked his brains to think of a way. Although he can't take the initiative to abolish her, he can make her resign voluntarily.
Sun Guifei thought of this and immediately went to Hu Huanghou. The other party was very angry after hearing his unreasonable demands, but Zhu Zhanji was very determined to abolish her and gave her many promises, saying that she could live in Chang 'an Palace and continue to enjoy the treatment of the queen.
Finally, Hu Shanxiang was forced to agree. Zhu Zhanji put forward a legitimate reason and made it public. ? Hu Huanghou didn't give birth to a prince, and she was sickly all the year round, so she couldn't continue to be qualified for the post of queen. I tried to keep him, but I still insisted on resigning. ? Many people don't believe it and think it's a conspiracy. But no one dared to resist the emperor's orders, and no one dared to defend the queen.
After Hu Shanxiang was abolished, he became a monk in Chang 'an Palace and was named Kyocera Stone. Many people read Zhu Zhanji's implication from this road sign, which means to let her stay in it quietly and stop messing around.
Third, the virtue is good, but the ability to do things is not as good as that of Sun Guifei.
Although Hu Shanxiang has the demeanor of a queen, she does not have the ability to control the world, which is far from Sun Guifei's ability and is not at all a level. After Zhu Qizhen was captured, North Korea was in a panic, and many people were at a loss. Empress Sun resisted heavy pressure and rejected many people's suggestions of fleeing south. She decided to let her second son, Zhu Qiyu, be emperor, and calmly solved a crisis. It can be seen that she has excellent ability to do things and is a very smart person. And Hu Huanghou is virtuous, does not understand tactics, theory of ability, also can't compare with Sun Guifei.
Although Hu Shanxiang was abolished, Zhang Taihou always liked her and often invited her to live in her own palace. Every time there are some important banquets, she will be invited and placed in front of Queen Sun, which is also a way for her to protest silently. Queen Sun was very uncomfortable, but she was helpless. Hu Shanxiang is very grateful to Zhang Taihou for this.
Later, Zhang Taihou died of illness.
Hu Shanxiang was heartbroken and died a year later.
Twenty years later, Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen sympathized with her and restored her status as queen, but for her, the death of the Sri Lankan people is no longer important.
