Chapter 777 Crown Princess
There are many rules in the palace, and they cannot teach so many times. The palace maid took Xiao Shishi to meet Shanggong in Shangyi Bureau, and Shanggong personally taught some simple rules. For example, how to salute the emperor and the queen in the future, etc.
Rich and honor are often accompanied by huge disasters. If you can’t be a good emperor, thieves will rob you of your country. The battle between concubines in the harem is even more tragic, and every woman’s youth is limited.
In the great years, the emperor will be fond of you. When your face grows old and the emperor falls in love with others, you will easily be abandoned.
Even a vicious woman like Wan Zhen'er and Concubine Wan would find ways to kill other concubines around the emperor one by one. And the children born by the emperor were merciless.
There is another type: if a concubine cannot give birth to a child, she will be spared from disaster. No, after the emperor dies, you may also be buried with her.
Abahai, Dorgon's mother of the Qing Dynasty, was forced to be buried with her after Nurhaci's death.
There were palace rules in the Ming Dynasty, called "The Great Heavenly Girl". This custom was very popular before the Warring States Period. After the Warring States Period, it showed a weakening trend. Some benevolent lords and holy lords could not bear to do this, so they made a will during their lifetime. It would be good to go on their own, so don't bother others. However, in the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Hongwu Zhu Yuanzhang had to start over and carry forward the dregs of "human sacrifice" again.
In the 31st year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, passed away, and the imperial edict required the concubines in the harem to be buried with him. Since then, the cruel situation of burying the royal family with women in the harem with him has risen again in Chinese history. When his grandson Zhu Yunwen succeeded to the throne, he followed his will and according to the ancient system, he personally issued an edict saying, "Any palace that has not been born will be buried with him. Those who do not follow the Ming Dynasty will be hanged to death." That is, who dares to disobey and strangle to death first and then throw it in.
Fortunately, this cruel system ended in the hands of Emperor Yingzong of Ming. Emperor Yingzong of Ming was the emperor who was captured by the Oirat in Tumu Fort, and the Ming Dynasty went from prosperity to decline.
Emperor Yingzong of Ming did not do much during his lifetime, but he was kind-hearted and issued a decree during his lifetime, telling his descendants that "from now on, he should not use concubines to be buried with him."
Since you become the crown princess, you have to accept Zhu Cilang's three palaces and six courtyards. This is a fact that a woman cannot change.
Although Xiao Shishi was unwilling to do so, she yearned for a monogamous life of a life of a single wife. But when she was elected as the Crown Princess, she could only accept such a fate.
"If Brother Zhu dares to find another woman, I will kill her." Xiao Shishi thought hatefully: "Even if she doesn't kill her, she will scold her."
Zhu Cilang is the crown prince and will be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty in the future, with three palaces, six courtyards and seventy-two concubines, and enjoy the blessings of the world.
However, unlike other time travelers, Zhu Cilang never thought so. He only took a can of drinks for three thousand waters. In his life, it was enough to marry Xiao Shishi.
What Zhu Cilang admired most was Zhu Youzang, the Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty, who created the Hongzhi Revival. One of the few good emperors in the Ming Dynasty, who could be compared with the Wen and Jingzhi rule, had only married one wife in his life.
In September of the 23rd year of Chenghua, Zhu Youzhang ascended the throne. He was generous and kind, frugal, not close to women, was diligent in political affairs, attached importance to justice, opened up a broad range of opinions, tried to reverse the corruption in the government, expelled treacherous and slanderous people, diligent in political affairs, worked hard to govern, and appointed Wang Shu and Liu Daxia as upright ministers, known in history as "Hongzhi Zhongxing".
Historians of all generations have highly praised him. Zhu Guozhen, the chief minister of the cabinet during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, said: "Third generations and less than those called wise rulers are Emperor Wen of Han, Emperor Renzong of Song and Emperor Xiaozong of Ming."
Zhu Cilang was unable to be generous and kind, but the times were different. Zhu Cilang was born in a turbulent Ming Dynasty, and kindness could not save the Ming Dynasty. Decisive killing is the most effective way, no doubt.
"I want to see my princess. I heard that the princess has entered the palace. Is it in Shangyi Bureau? Where is the person? I want to go and see her."
Just when Xiao Shishi was still learning etiquette from Shanggong and saw how the emperor and the queen ceremonies ceremonies, how they were called and the order of the ceremonies, a crisp sound rang outside Shangyi Bureau.
Princess Kunxing Zhu Mai, she has grown into a graceful girl now. Moreover, Princess Kunxing has also settled a marriage with her husband Zhou Xian.
According to historical records, Princess Changping was the daughter of Emperor Chongzhen of Ming Dynasty and was born to Empress Zhou. At the age of Jiashen, Shuling was 15 years old. The emperor ordered the officials who were in charge of rituals and ordered the supervisor of the rituals to select good families and discuss the surrender of the lord. At that time, there was a grand servant named Zhou Jun Duwei who was famous in Shixian. He was about to build Pingyang to house it and open Qinshui to house it. He had been on his way. He had been rebellious. The emperor was determined to sacrifice his life for the clan society. The mother of the country, Princess, died generously. When the princess was young, she waved her sword with her cheeks and cut her wrists. The jade was broken, and the orchid was destroyed! The thief was sacrificed to the noble master and gave him the "corpse" of the country, covered it with brocade, and carried it back to the pepper. Five nights, he was reborn. The spring was in the palace, and the dragon beard was removed and the sword was far away. The orchid was furious and the orchid was broken, and the orchid was broken and the spirit was destroyed.
The Princess Changping here is the current Princess Kunxing. However, Princess Changping was given the title by the Qing Dynasty. In fact, the title of the Ming Dynasty was Kunxing.
Logically speaking, Princess Kunxing should have gotten married at this age. However, the emperor's brother Zhu Cixuan has not yet gotten married, so she, a sister, cannot marry her brother first.
When the princess arrived, the palace people from Shangyi Bureau knelt down and saluted. Then Princess Kunxing jumped in.
Looking at each other, the two couldn't help but praise each other, such a beautiful beauty. Xiao Shishi was hesitating whether to learn the etiquette that Shanggong taught her just now and give a great gift to the princess.
Princess Kunxing is beautiful, with a noble and beautiful temperament. Xiao Shishi is more of a kind of pastoral and quiet beauty. The two can be said to have their own unique styles.
Unexpectedly, Princess Kunxing had already rushed over and happily held Xiao Shishi's hand: "Wow, what a beautiful beauty, my brother really has a good attitude. Sister-in-law, your name is Shishi, right? Hehe, I have heard of you a long time ago."
The other party had no princess' airs at all, but was very close to Xiao Shishi, a peer. This made Xiao Shishi, who was originally nervous, immediately let go of half of her heart.
Xiao Shishi smiled sweetly and learned the etiquette that Shanggong taught her: "I've seen the princess."
Princess Kunxing was even more happy and said to Shanggong beside her: "Wow, look, my sister-in-law is so awesome. I knew the rules in the palace for the first time I entered the palace."
Young people always have too many topics, and Princess Kunxing chatted with Xiao Shishi constantly. Shang Gong, who was standing beside him, was quite embarrassed, and after a while, he reminded: "Your Highness, Princess, I also have to teach Miss Shen's palace rules. Your Highness, Princess, Miss Shen also has to go to see the Queen."
