... There are two
daughters of Li Jing from Yuan Zong in the Southern Tang Dynasty, yongning princess Li Fangyi (first married Song Taizong, then married Emperor Sheng Zong of Liao, and married two emperors' princesses, Yongning being the only one in China history). She is Li Yu's sister.
The other one:
yongning princess, Princess of the Emperors in the Ming Dynasty. yongning princess married Liang Bangrui. Thirty-five years of Wanli. (4th daughter of Ming Muzong)
There is a puzzling rule in the royal family of Zhu Ming Dynasty, that is, Xu should be selected from the families of civilians or low-level officials, and the family whose children are selected can no longer be an official among their close relatives, even if they are already officials, they have to retire and go home. There is such a sentence in the Record of Emperor Shizong of Ming Dynasty: "In the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, the three law departments adopted the regulations on interrogation and punishment, which has been followed to this day, and it has become a statute. They are reluctant to marry the Wangs, but Bai Ding, Lu Jing, helped Zongqi and turned to lure him. ..... Re-discussion on' It's appropriate for tired dynasties not to allow the royal relatives to be granted the Beijing post, but also to cover their leisure' ...'
Originally, it was to prevent princes and nobles, ministers and workers from doing evil and endangering the political power through the identity of royal in-laws. That's right, but if a family has children who are elected as Xu or Yi Bin, the family can't be promoted to be an official, and the so-called Xu and Yi Bin are just a vain job. In this way, the folk aristocratic families and scholarly families all regard marrying the royal family as a fearful road. As a result, the husbands of princesses and patriarchal women often have different qualities.
It is recorded in A Record of Ming Yingzong that: "... the rich children entrust the officiating officials to take shelter with the men and women who are discussing marriage. If they have money to ask for advice, or even though the characters are despicable, they are also called suitable for marriage. If they don't have money to ask for advice, they are called smart and handsome, so they say that it is difficult to match each other." "Everywhere Wangfu chooses Yibin to go to Beijing to teach, and there are many people who are contemptuous and rude. ..... "
It's a tragedy that a noble princess should marry an ugly and stubborn common man.
under the influence of stereotypes and supreme political interests, they have become the biggest victims of corrupt officials and ordinary people's despicable schemes.
Now that yongning princess is getting married, Feng Bao, the eunuch leader, seems to hear the sound of silver knocking again.
After accepting a huge bribe, he actually chose Liang Bangrui, who was suffering from consumption, as a young woman in yongning princess.
in those days, consumption was incurable. Liang Jia knew that his son was dying soon, and great wealth was not as good as buying a reputation and position. So he gave up his family, bribed Feng Bao and others, and simply gave the sick ghost to the princess and became a royal relative as he wished.
As for the young emperor Wanli, he was afraid of Feng Bao who liked to snitch from an early age. Feng Bao used the Empress Dowager to suppress the little emperor and did whatever he wanted. Now he's got his dirty hands in yongning princess.
At the wedding, Liang Bangrui, who was emotional and overworked, vomited blood in public. The death knell sounded for this marriage.
but he didn't realize that being a husband-in-law, after the selection, was far from over.
In the imperial court of Ming and Qing dynasties, there were respectful rooms to strictly manage the private lives of emperors' families, and a set of absurd management systems were formulated for this purpose. There are not only eunuchs, but also female officials in the worship room-as you can imagine, one kind is disabled, and the other is an old maid who has been confined to the harem for life and can't even see normal men. How psychopathic they will be. How can these two kinds of people get used to other people's legitimate passions? Therefore, they often collude and do evil in the harem.
There is another rule in the royal family: after the princess gets married, she must be assigned an old female official of this kind to take full charge of the affairs of the princess. The princess who has been married in name only spends the wedding night in the princess's house, so she has to move back to the temple specially designed for the harem to live. In the empty princess's house, only one person, Xu, lives. If the princess and Xu want to meet and talk, Xu must rush into the palace to meet her.
However, the most annoying thing for such an old female official is of course the scene of the princess and Xu making love. Therefore, if Xu wants to go into the palace to meet the princess and enjoy the relationship between husband and wife, he is bound to be made difficult by this "housekeeper". If the princess and Xu don't take out a lot of real money to pay bribes, they won't be able to get through their customs at all and see their husbands (wives).
Now, what Liang Bangrui is going to face is such a housewife and a group of eunuchs who communicate with her.
The housekeeper had long known that Feng Bao, the eunuch leader, had made a lot of money in this marriage, and naturally she had a big appetite. She ignored the routine gold and silver given by Liang Bangrui and was full of hope to make a fortune on this sick old horse.
Liang Bangrui thinks he is a royal relative, but he was teased by a little female official, and finally he couldn't help defending himself.
The housekeeper became angry from embarrassment, so she simply called the eunuch, gave this husband a good beating, and then dragged him out of the palace gate and threw him in the street.
Liang Bangrui, who thought that people are happy when they are happy, may be married to the royal family and can cure diseases, never thought that it would be such an experience to be a husband-in-law. He was trembling with anger, and he vomited blood in the street.
Liang Bangrui was taken home by the Liang family for treatment, but it was useless.
Liang Bangrui, who had been married for less than a month, died.
Poor yongning princess, in this short one-month marriage, she has never been married to her own Xu, let alone have children.
In the Zhu Ming Dynasty, which advocated chastity, empresses and concubines had to be buried for the emperor, and the good ones were inferior, which led to an endless stream of virtuous women among the people. The noble princess is in the blood of the emperor. Although there is no need to die for the courtiers, there is no possibility of remarriage.
After being a widow for twenty years, yongning princess passed away.
In the past 21 years, her only comfort was that Feng Bao, the "great companion" who created her life tragedy, was sent to Nanjing by the Shenzong emperor who finally came to power as an adult after more than ten years of madness, and soon committed suicide.
When yongning princess died, the undertaker sadly found that she was still a virgin.
It's a pity that she didn't even see what her husband looked like. If there is a soul after death, she can't find the soul of her own Xu Liang Bangrui.
yongning princess's tragedy has not fundamentally changed the rules of choosing a husband for a princess.
Shortly after yongning princess's death, Shenzong's own daughter also reached the age of marriage for a female university, and all returned to live in Miyagi after marriage according to palace regulations.
A princess once summoned her husband to the palace to meet her. When Xu arrived, the "housekeeper" was drinking and having fun elsewhere, and failed to get back in time to collect the "toll". By the time the old woman was drunk and heard the news, Xu, who had been impatient, had gone into the palace to meet his wife. The housekeeper was furious and rushed into the princess's bedroom with the strength of wine, swearing at the princess Xu, who was deeply in love, and calling eunuchs to drive Xu out of the palace.
The princess was ashamed and angry, so she went to complain to her mother after dawn. Who knows that the housekeeper has already told the queen that black and white are upside down, making the princess very miserable.
Wanli neglected the Imperial Palace Empress for many years. The Empress was barren all her life, and she was deeply immersed in the whirlpool of jealousy. The black nature is very local.
As a result, the princess was scolded by her first mother.
when Xu heard the news, he tried to go into the palace to defend his wife, but he was blocked by the housekeeper's eunuch and husband, and he was beaten to death.
This matter was handled as follows: the housekeeper was dereliction of duty and replaced (what's the use of changing the soup without changing the medicine), the eunuch who hit the person was not hurt at all, but the princess Xu was punished for violating the palace rules and was not allowed to meet for three months.
The official disaster in the Ming Dynasty and the princess's miserable life can be seen from this.
