Empress Sun was a wise and knowledgeable female politician in the Ming Dynasty, which showed her outstanding political talent. This period was also a very difficult and complicated period for the Ming Dynasty. Empress Sun played a very active role in the invasion of foreign enemies, the turmoil in Korea and the great crisis and predicament of the imperial court. She actively responded to the "change of civil castles", established a new emperor, reused Yu Qian and other wise and loyal ministers, and was responsible for Beijing's defense. Later, she calmly responded to the "change of many doors" and experienced the unbearable predicament of ordinary people, saving the crisis of the Ming Dynasty.
Queen Sun was beautiful when she was a teenager. Her father, Zhong Sun, is the main book of Yongcheng County. In her teens, Mrs. Peng, the mother of Empress Zhang, a fellow countryman, introduced her.
Later, Judy, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, chose a concubine for Zhu Zhanji, the eldest grandson of the emperor. Later, Hu of Jining was made a princess and a concubine.
On May 9th, the first year of Xuande (1426), Zhu Zhanji acceded to the throne, and Sun Shi was the imperial concubine. According to court etiquette, the queen was given a golden book and a golden treasure (seal), and the imperial concubine had books but no treasures. However, due to the long-term relationship between Sun Shi and Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Zhanji specially invited Sun Shi to send a gold gift. It serves to show that Zhu Zhanji attaches great importance to Sun Shi. In the third year of Xuande (1428), Zhu Zhanji, Emperor Xuanzong of Ming Dynasty, abolished Hu Huanghou and made Sun Guifei the queen. The reason why Xuanzong of Ming Dynasty was abolished was that Hu had no children and had children. After Hu was abolished, he retired to Chang 'an Palace and was named "Jingci".
Xuande ten years (1435), Ming Xuanzong died, Zhang Taihou made the Crown Prince emperor, Zhang Taihou was honored as the empress dowager, and Empress Sun was honored as the empress dowager.
Originally, Empress Sun could enjoy the comfortable life of the Empress Dowager in the harem, and her son became the emperor. She has a noble position and a luxurious life, so she can be carefree. However, "the change of the civil fort" pushed her from the harem to the front of the political stage at that time.
In June of the 14th year of Orthodox Church (1449), a man named Wala first invaded the border of Ming Dynasty. Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen has always wanted to show his military talents. Encouraged by Wang Zhen, a trusted eunuch, he decided to make a personal expedition and led 200,000 troops to war. According to the original plan, after the Ming army went north from Datong, it would go to the border to fight the Walla army. However, the military affairs of the Ming army were all decided by the eunuch Wang Zhen. Generals are constrained everywhere and cannot direct operations according to their own intentions. Wang Zhen didn't understand the military, and his command mistakes were repeated, which led to repeated battles and defeats of the Ming army.
The morale of the Ming army is low, and the wind and rain are mixed, so the soldiers have no intention to fight and the military discipline is lax. At this time, the secretary of the military department repeatedly advised Yingzong to withdraw, but Wang Zhen was furious, hit Yingzong and ordered his ministers to help. But before the Ming army arrived in Datong, the Ming army began to lack food, and the soldiers were hungry and tired. Later, the Vara army followed the Ming army, and Ming Yingzong sent more than 40,000 cavalry led by Hou Kezhong, Wu Keqin, Zhu Yong and Yongshun Bo Xue to stop Vara, but they were ambushed by the Vara army first, and all the troops were wiped out. Later, Yingzong led the rest of the troops to Tumubao (now southeast of Huailai County, Hebei Province), and Wang Zhen took his own more than 1,000 trench cars and ordered to camp on the spot. There was no spring next to the civil fort, and all the main roads were occupied by the Walla army. The return of the Ming army was quickly cut off by the Walla army. On August 15, he also sent a special envoy to deceive and paralyze the Ming army. Wang Zhen urgently ordered the relocation of the camp, and the marching order of the army was in chaos. The Walla army attacked in disorder. In the chaos, Fan Zhongyan, a general who was very angry with Wang Zhen, killed Wang Zhen with a pestle in order to avoid bondage and facilitate command. Ming Yingzong, the general around Yingzong, broke through but couldn't rush out. Ming Yingzong saw that he could not break through, so he simply dismounted and did nothing. Wara soldiers took Yingzong to see him first, and the prophet was Yingzong, so they paid tribute to him and offered him all kinds of delicious food. Yingzong became a prisoner.
The "Civil Fort Change" wiped out all the 200,000 main forces of the Ming army, Wang Zhen was killed, Yingzong became a prisoner, and the Ming Dynasty lost its military power to defend Beijing.
In the fourteenth year of orthodoxy (1449), on August 16th, the leader of Vara also took the captured Ming Yingzong as a hostage and was restored by Datong. Later, he listened to Ning, the captured eunuch, and led the army to Beijing in the name of returning Ming Yingzong, hoping to seize the opportunity to capture the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
After the news of "the change of the civil fort" reached the capital, it shocked North Korea, and 200,000 troops were wiped out, and even the emperor became a prisoner. At this time, there was no emperor in the imperial city, and the people in the city were in panic. The minister of Manchu dynasty didn't know what to do, so he relied on Queen Sun to be the master.
At this critical moment of the Ming Dynasty, Queen Sun stepped forward. With extraordinary political talent, she took a series of emergency measures to turn the tide and save the Ming Dynasty.
First of all, Queen Sun ordered Wang to supervise the whole country and urged everyone to come to Beijing.
Just two days after Ming Yingzong was arrested by Vala, Queen Sun stepped forward to deal with state affairs and decisively ordered Chyi Yu to supervise the country. Zhu Qiyu is the second son of Zhu Zhanji, the Emperor Xuanzong of Ming Dynasty, and the half-brother of Zhu Qizhen, Ming Yingzong. His mother is Wu Xianfei. With Zhu Qiyu as a supervisor, the court would not be in chaos, and at least one supervisor would handle daily affairs.
Then, Queen Sun called courtiers to discuss how to deal with the plan that Valla's army was about to arrive in Beijing. At this point, war is a big plan. Xu Kun (Xu Youzhen), an assistant lecturer, said that astrology has changed, and strongly advocated moving the capital to Nanjing to avoid the attack of the Vara army and ensure the peace of the Ming Dynasty. Other selfish, fear of death, selfish ministers also quickly echoed and agreed with Xu Youzhen.
However, the main force headed by Yu Qian, assistant minister of the Ministry of War, arrived, insisted on sticking to Beijing and fought to the death with the Walla army. Taking the story of moving south in the Song Dynasty as an example, Yu Qian strongly opposed moving the capital to Nanjing, believing that once the capital was moved, it would lose its territory. Wang Zhi, the official department minister, and Chen Xun, the cabinet bachelor, all agree with Yu Qian's idea.
Queen Sun listened carefully to Yu Qian's analysis and suggestions. He made the final decision and decided to stick to Beijing and fight against the enemy together. She ordered North Korean officials to prepare for war.
Secondly, Queen Sun and courtiers were crowned the throne, which failed the plot to use Ming Yingzong to threaten the Ming Dynasty.
Yingzong was taken away by Vala, and there was no emperor in Korea. North Korea's minister is very anxious. Fortunately, Queen Sun asked Zhu Qiyu to supervise the country, but this did not solve the fundamental problem. A surname of Valari was also the first to threaten the Ming court with Yingzong. In the fourteenth year of orthodoxy (1449), on August 28th, Shi Yu Wang Wen, Zuodu, wrote a letter to Zhu Qiyu, asking him to attach importance to the Jiangshan state and inherit the unification. At that time, the son of Yingzong, Crown Prince Zhu Jianshen, was only two years old. The courtiers were worried about the suspicion of the country, and the ministers agreed with Wang Wen's suggestion. Yu Qian, Wang Zhi and other ministers immediately jointly played the Queen Mother. Queen Sun immediately approved Yu Qian's suggestion, and in September of the 14th year of the Orthodox Church (1449), she was made emperor, replacing the emperor and changing the yuan to Jingtai. And revere Ming Yingzong as the emperor's father. It is not easy for Queen Sun to do this. She lives in Zhu Qiyu as her own son, and Zhu Qizhen, who was replaced by Daizong as the emperor's father, is her own son. Empress Sun put the overall situation first and became the new emperor, which showed that she was broad-minded, far-sighted in politics, and could put national affairs first. [10] At the same time, a large-scale liquidation operation was launched, and many Wang Zhen henchmen fell. [ 17]
After Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne, he wrote to the border guards not to listen to Vara's excuses. Now that Daizong ascended the throne, Vara's plan of defrauding property and opening and closing doors in the name of Ming Yingzong could not be implemented.
Third, support Zhu Qiyu, Yu Qian and others to destroy Wang Zhenyu's remaining party and express their determination to fight against Walla.
When Wang was still a regent, Chen Yi, the right suggestion, played a request to kill the whole family, and courtiers responded in succession. Zhu Qiyu dared not make a decision, saying that we should discuss it another time, but the courtiers protested. At this point, Wang Zhen's confidants and a security guard ordered Ma Shun to come forward and denounce the officials, but Wang Hong suddenly took the lead in attacking Ma Shun, and all the ministers besieged him, killing Ma Shun on the spot and spilling blood in the court. Zhu Qiyu, the king of Xi, was afraid to leave, so Yu Qian quickly approached Xi to help him persuade him to accept the courtier's suggestion that Ma Shun's crime should be put to death. Minister Wang held Yu Qian's hand and said that the imperial court just needs a minister like you. Today, a hundred Wang Zhi can't solve this problem. Since then, Wang has also begun to attach importance to modesty. Queen Sun also supported the henchmen eliminated by Wang He and Yu Qian.
In addition, Queen Sun also appointed Yu Qian as the minister of the Ministry of War and granted him the power to "pre-adjust the military forces".
After the "Minbao Change", all the best troops and elite cavalry in Beijing were taken away by Yingzong, leaving less than 100,000 tired foot soldiers in Beijing. The people in the DPRK were in panic, and Yu Qian, assistant minister of the Ministry of War, stepped forward and asked the king to dispatch the South Beijing Reserve Army, the South Shandong Reserve Army and the Jiangbei Beijing Government Grain Transportation Army. Right away. Seeing Yu Qian's good scheduling, he has a good plan. Empress Sun was immediately promoted to Yu Qian as the minister of war, who was solely responsible for planning the defense of the capital.
However, according to the system of the Ming Dynasty, the Minister of War could not directly command the army. In order to enable Yu Qian to fully command the army to fight against Walla, after Ming Daizong acceded to the throne, with the support of Queen Sun, he specially granted Yu Qian the power to "prefect the military forces of each battalion" and ordered all battalion generals in Beijing to accept Yu Qian's restraint, so that Yu Qian had the power to kill. Whoever disobeys military orders in the army has the right of preemption.
This authorization given to Yu Qian by Queen Sun and Daizong is very important, which allows Yu Qian to take full charge of Beijing's defense and bear the main responsibility for success or failure. In this critical period of fierce fighting, Yu Qian's military strength is second only to that of the emperor. With the support of Queen Sun, Yu Qian and Dai Zong began to prepare for defending Beijing. Yu Qian promoted a group of generals who had time to command and transferred troops from all over the country. At the same time, Yu Qian also ordered the troops stationed in Beijing to build weapons day and night and equip the army as soon as possible. In addition, Yu Qian also arranged defensive forces around the capital, closely guarding the nine gates. Soon, loyal troops from Beijing, Henan and Shandong also arrived one after another. Yu Qian was strict in military discipline, selected new generals to reorganize the army, and ordered the border guards to step up the repair of passes everywhere.
Empress Sun's trust and reuse of money is the key to turning the crisis into safety and turning defeat into victory in Beijing's defense war. Only Yu Qian, who has the overall situation and is loyal and selfless, can command a complete victory in the defense war.
However, in the eighth year of Jingtai (1457), the generals who were reused by Yu Qian, even protected by Qian, took advantage of Ming Daizong's serious illness and launched a "change to seize the door", which abolished the generation of ancestors as kings, ruthlessly arrested and imprisoned Yu Qian, the minister of the Ministry of War, and the minister of the Ministry of Justice, and tried to welcome Yingzong back to the DPRK. After Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne again, he monopolized the imperial power and reused Shi Heng and Xu Youzhen. , against dissidents, framed loyal subjects, but the queen sun was unable to stop, so that the money was killed. This is the regret of Queen Sun. There are also comments that it is the biological son of Queen Sun, and it is possible that the "change of the door" has been acquiesced by Queen Sun. However, it is groundless to say that Queen Sun supported Yingzong in killing Yu Qianhe, and that Queen Sun would not be as narrow-minded and ruthless as her son.
Ming Fenghua simply moved the shocking skills of anti-Japanese dramas to the Ming Dynasty. Hello, director, do you think we can't see after we pass? I won't say anything else. We still have to talk about Queen Sun.
Queen Sun is the queen of Ming Xuanzong and Ming Yingzong's biological mother. In the play, she is as wise as Wu Zetian and SHEN WOO, but in historical materials, she is just a person engaged in court struggle, and can't be as wise as Daming fly with me. It is even more impossible to lead the Ming army to wear armor (my hair really stood on end when I saw this).
Her most important role in the history of the Ming Dynasty was to make Xi King Zhu Qiyu emperor. As for the rest, it's not contribution, it's interference.
First, you can't do anything. You won the first prize in Gong Dou. In the play, Sun is also called Sun. In fact, there are really not many women who can leave their names in the Ming Dynasty. In order to recall the story before she became the Queen Mother, let's call her Sun. She can enter the palace because of her hometown.
Sun He, the mother of Injong Queen Zhang, is a fellow villager. There is such a relationship, plus her father Zhong Sun is the main book of the local county government, so Sun Rewei has been living in the palace since childhood, so she and Zhu Zhanji have been playmates since childhood.
When Zhu Zhanji grew up, he married Sun Ruowei. But Sun Ruowei is not a wife, and Hu is the original wife. The result, of course, is that Sun Ruowei is very upset and often thinks about bringing down Hu.
After the accession to the throne, Hu became, and Sun was also named Sun Guifei. The problem is that it is obviously biased towards Sun, and all specifications should be the same. Sun ruowei is like the second queen.
Having given birth to two daughters instead of a son, and Sun Wei gave birth to a son, Zhu Zhanji was forced to resign as queen and make way for Sun.
Sun Rewei also said hypocritically, give Hu Huanghou another chance. When she is well, she will definitely have a son. In fact, Sun Ruowei is so happy.
After Zhu Zhanji abolished Hu Huanghou for these unreasonable reasons, he made Sun Ruowei the queen. But Zhang Taihou is like a mirror in her heart. She is Zhu Zhanji's biological mother. Although she is related to Sun Ruowei, she prefers Hu Huanghou.
When Zhang Taihou gave a banquet in the harem, Sun Ruowei was already a queen, but his position was arranged after Hu Huanghou. Do you think Sun Ruowei is happy? But I can't help it if I'm unhappy. Who let Zhang Taihou be your mother-in-law?
Second, the daughter-in-law became a woman, but almost lost her son. Sun Ruowei has only one son, Zhu Qizhen. When Zhu Zhanji, Emperor Xuanzong of Ming Dynasty, died, Zhu Qizhen was only 9 years old and could not govern the country at all.
At this time, Zhang Taihou carried the banner and became the master of the empire. Sun lived a hard life for seven years under the oppression of Empress Zhang.
With the death of Zhang Taihou and Sun Sanyang, I feel relaxed. The point is that she won't teach her children how to be parents, and Zhu Qizhen will only fool around in North Korea.
As a result, the Walla people called, and this guy actually wanted to sign it himself. Sun Rewei couldn't stop him, so he had to let Zhu Qizhen make Zhu Jianshen a prince, which made him go to war.
The change of the civil fort happened like this. Zhu Qizhen was defeated, and her beautiful career as queen mother was almost interrupted. Sun Rewei became a woman with no idea, only to see how Yu Qian performed.
Third, saving Beijing depends on modesty, not sun. It is understandable to exaggerate a TV series, but it is too much to distort the facts. Has Sun ever been to the battlefield? Her credit is greater than modesty? You really can't be so ridiculous!
At that time, the Walla people came to blackmail the Ming Dynasty with Zhu Qizhen. Many ministers said that they would move the capital to the south. Sun ruowei has no idea. At this time, Yu Qian stood up and said, whoever wants to go south will be killed.
At Yu Qian's suggestion, Zhu Qiyu, King of Xi, was made emperor, because only in this way could Zhu Qizhen be of no value in the hands of Vala.
If young Zhu Jianshen became emperor, the Walla people could still threaten the Ming Dynasty. After all, they are holding the emperor's biological father. Zhu Qizhen and Zhu Qiyu were not born to the same mother, so the intimate relationship between them is naturally not as good as that between father and son. Zhu Qiyu could not give up the interests of the Ming Dynasty for Zhu Qizhen.
Sun ruowei is actually very embarrassed. She is not Zhu Qiyu's real mother, but water under the bridge. Only in this way can the land of the Ming Dynasty be preserved, so she is also in favor of it. But she has two requirements, the first is to keep her status as queen mother, and the second is to keep Zhu Jianshen's status as a prince.
In this way, their grandchildren can still inherit the throne in the future, so they didn't give the throne to Zhu Qiyu, but invited Zhu Qiyu to come and work temporarily.
Under the leadership of Yu Qian, Beiping won a great victory, and Zhu Qiyu also played a role in stabilizing people's hearts. Therefore, Sun Zai's play is very small.
Fourth, help Zhu Qizhen to launch the change of seizing the door. No one would think that Zhu Qizhen didn't play well. He is an excellent social worker. In Walla, he made friends everywhere, and even Bo Yan Timur, the younger brother of Walla leader, became a good friend of Zhu Qizhen.
With the help of many parties and his own considerations, Zhu Qizhen lived in Valla for more than a year, and then he was put back first.
More than a year can change many things. Zhu Qiyu, who didn't want to be emperor at first, is now fascinated by power and can't let it go. So when Zhu Qizhen came back, Zhu Qiyu imprisoned him in the Nangong.
Sun has visited his son many times before. As for what they talked about, it is impossible to record it in historical materials. But want to also can think of, guess there are several big things:
Therefore, whether Zhu Qizhen can finally succeed in the coup depends entirely on Sun Ruowei's role. After all, no one can visit except Queen Sun.
Ming Yingzong fostered by Sun is still an incompetent person. Zhu Qiyu proclaimed himself emperor for eight years, which continued the prosperous period of Ren Xuan's rule and restored the trauma to the Ming Dynasty after the change of Minbao.
But after many changes in Zhu Qizhen, all these achievements have been ruined. He began to reuse treacherous court officials, and the people were miserable, which even triggered an uprising of hundreds of thousands of people.
Even so, Sun Ruowei won't regret it, because Zhu Qizhen is her son after all, and it doesn't matter if the Ming Dynasty declined, but the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is not her son, so it is very important.

Speaking of it, Queen Sun is actually a selfish person.
There is a simple reason. Originally, Hu Huanghou was Zhu Zhanji's wife and queen, but in the end, Zhu Zhanji fell out with the North Korean minister for Sun Fei and finally abolished Hu Huanghou. Hu Huanghou is a very kind and sensible person, and she was unanimously recognized by the Queen Mother and the DPRK ministers at that time. It is precisely because of this that the ministers of North Korea and Zhu Zhanji will carry it hard, and they don't want Zhu Zhanji to abolish Hu Huanghou and let Sun Fei be the queen.
In historical records, mainly Zhu Zhanji, Hu Huanghou, the Empress Dowager and the ministers of the DPRK came to the front of history. What role Sun Fei played in it is not recorded in detail in history. But obviously, if Sun Fei hadn't tried to hook Zhu Zhanji's soul, would Zhu Zhanji have made such a big noise for her?
(Queen Sun stills)
Besides, if Sun Fei is also a wise person, she should understand the principle of respecting servants in feudal ethics and persuade Zhu Zhanji not to abolish Hu Huanghou. She is willing to be a side princess. In that case, Zhu Zhanji would never make such a big noise.
In a word, Sun Fei is really a very selfish person.
But why, when she became the queen mother, especially after the Neishibao incident, she seemed to understand the important principle. Agree with the proposal put forward by the North Korean minister represented by Yu Qian to change Zhu Qiyu into emperor and worship Zhu Qizhen as the emperor's father?
This suggestion is actually a complete disregard for the son's life. Valla allowed his son Zhu Qizhen to exist because Zhu Qizhen was an emperor. Since he is an emperor, it is very useful for Vala to have such an emperor. He can use Zhu Qizhen to blackmail the Ming Dynasty and get more benefits from it. Once Zhu Qizhen is no longer an emperor, he is just an emperor's father, which means that he is basically worthless. For a worthless person, his life is insignificant. The same is true in Zhu Qiyu. Once Zhu Qiyu becomes emperor, he will feel that the existence of Zhu Qizhen is a threat to him. If Zhu Qizhen dies, it's best for him.
In a word, Zhu Qizhen's life safety is not guaranteed. As a mother, Empress Sun knows very well. Now she understood, why didn't he try his best to keep Zhu Qizhen's throne, and agreed to let Yu Qian and other ministers make Zhu Qiyu emperor?
(Zhu Qizhen stills)
Some people say that this is the embodiment of Queen Sun's big pattern, and understand that there is no home without a country. For the safety of the whole country, she did not care about personal gains and losses, thus making outstanding contributions to the permanent consolidation of the Ming Dynasty.
We can't say that Queen Sun didn't have such ideological consciousness, and this decision made by Queen Sun didn't contribute to ensuring the stability of the Ming Dynasty. But judging from the context of Queen Sun's personality, she actually made this decision for self-protection or for her own safety. In a sense, this is still a selfish performance. Why do you say that?
Queen Sun is of course the Empress Dowager and has enough say in political life. But when in danger, she is actually a weak woman in the palace. When North Korean ministers decided to make Zhu Qiyu emperor and then report to her, she had no choice. In other words, if she agrees, she must agree, and if she doesn't agree, she must agree.
If you don't agree, people will still make Zhu Qiyu emperor. And because she didn't agree, her role in the court was greatly reduced and her status was greatly reduced. Although her position as the queen mother may not change, after Zhu Qiyu made his mother the queen mother, she can't be the queen mother of the two palaces, and there will probably be only one queen mother in the end, and this queen mother is Zhu Qiyu's mother, so she becomes dispensable.
(Zhu Qiyu stills)
In a word, she was in a very dangerous situation. If she disobeys ministers, no one dares to kill her, but she can't keep her power. In court, she will have no say at all.
On the other hand, as long as she can keep her power, she can continue to live a better life on the one hand; On the other hand, she can find a way to save Zhu Qizhen. Even if Zhu Qizhen can't be saved, at least she can be guaranteed for the rest of her life.
From this perspective, Queen Sun still has selfishness.
If we overestimate the subjective initiative that Queen Sun can play in history, it is also an objective practice and does not conform to historical facts. But in any case, Queen Sun's selfishness is in line with the national justice. Therefore, the historical evaluation of Queen Sun is also relatively high, which should be regarded as the luck of Queen Sun.
(Reference:
Ming history etc. )
Queen Sun is just a woman who is good at court struggle. She didn't have the courage and talent to lead the civil and military officials to win the battle of Beijing. Queen Sun's only achievement in defending Beijing is that under the pressure of the ruling and opposition situation, she supported the imperial war faction, opposed the southward migration, agreed with the correct proposition of Yu Qian and other ministers, made the king emperor, adhered to Beijing, and called on the diligent king of the world.
At the same time, Queen Sun, who is good at playing politics, successfully mixed her own bootleg goods: she demanded that Ming Yingzong's son, who humiliated the country, be a prince.
Queen Sun's name is Sun, and she is from Shandong. She was famous for her beauty when she was a teenager. Her father Zhong Sun is an official in a small county. Coincidentally, Sun was elected to the palace when he was a teenager. Later, the great-grandson of the emperor got married and chose Sun as his wife.
After Zhu Zhanji acceded to the throne and became Emperor Xuanzong of Ming Dynasty, he was abolished because he loved his grandson very much. He made his grandson the queen, which was called the filial piety queen in history.
Zhu Zhanji died in 10. So Zhu Qizhen, the 8-year-old son of Sun Queen Ruowei, acceded to the throne, which is Ming Yingzong.
After Ming Yingzong came to power, he was incompetent, trusted eunuch Wang Zhen, and made a mess of the court. I have to say that Sun's adopted son is very poor, and she is far worse than her mother-in-law.
1449, encouraged by Yan Quan Wang Zhen, Ming Yingzong personally recruited Vala from Zhu Qizhen; As a result, he was surrounded by Walla cavalry in the civil fort and was completely annihilated. Zhu Qizhen himself easily gave in and became a prisoner of Valla.
The news spread to Beijing, and people inside and outside the capital were worried for a time; The call for abandoning Beijing and going south is rampant. When the country was in danger, the ministers of the war faction headed by Yu Qian resolutely opposed the proposal of moving south and insisted on resisting the attack of Valla.
Ministers demanded that Zhu Qiyu, King of Xi, be made emperor, and shoulder the heavy responsibility of leading the army and civilians to suppress Vara. Queen Sun hopes that the prince will inherit the throne; However, Zhu Jianshen was only a 3-year-old child, unable to shoulder the heavy responsibility. Therefore, Queen Sun had to agree to be emperor, but she was cheated and made a crown prince.
The enemy's future is uncertain now. Zhu Qiyu and his ministers didn't think it over carefully, so they agreed.
Enemy at the Gates, a Vara cavalry unit, was in a critical situation in the defence of Beijing. The Queen Sun and the Queen Qian of Ming Yingzong didn't contribute to the country at all, and they didn't come up with any property to reward the Ming soldiers guarding the city. Instead, I raised gold and silver jewelry in the palace and gave them to the Walla army, hoping to put the bad king Zhu Qizhen back first and let him harm Daming's country again.
Therefore, in the defending battle of Beijing, Queen Sun didn't give any help to the country at all, and she didn't like the TV series "Daming Fenghua": dressed in military uniform, holding a sword, inspiring soldiers and leaping to kill the enemy. For people like Queen Sun, she never thinks about the country, but her own vital interests. What she wants is to keep her own son Zhu Qizhen in the throne and never fall into the hands of Zhu Qiyu's concubines. Therefore, after the victory of Beiping Defence War, Zhu Qiyu's prestige was prominent and his position could not be shaken for a while. Queen Sun lurks in the palace and stands by.
/kloc-in the first month of 0/457, Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu was seriously ill. Queen Sun took the opportunity to support, and others to launch the "change of seizing the door", supported the restoration of the bad king, and launched a bloody political liquidation. Immediately put to death the hero Yu Qian and others for their courageous deeds; Those generals who dared to disobey orders and did not open the door when Zhu Qizhen led the enemy to knock at the door were also eliminated. ......
In a word, Queen Sun, like her son, only covets power, just wants to keep her throne and enjoy the parasitic life of arrogance and extravagance forever. As for the Ming dynasty, I'm afraid it's not worth wasting her brain cells to consider; Because she knew that people like Yu Qian would come forward to help her solve those things.
Conclusion: In the defense of the Wala cavalry at the gates, Empress Sun of the Ming Dynasty was forced to agree that the minister should be made emperor, but she didn't play any role. Donate the gold and silver in the palace to the enemy, young and old. According to the current law, collaborating with the enemy and aiding the enemy are felony!
