Liao country since its founding, the ancient queen and empress are a family with a monopoly contract , Known as the Queen's professional household, this is the Xiao family.
After Liao Taizu Yelu Abaoji established the government, he expressed his affirmation of his wife Shuluping's merits, and remembered his mother and grandmother generation. By learning from the founding experience of the Han dynasty, Liao Taizu Yelu Abaoji felt that the reason why Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was able to establish immortal achievements and create the territory of the prosperous age of the Han Dynasty, the prime minister Xiao He made great contributions, so he bestowed all his mother and grandmother generations on Xiao From then on, the entire Khitan royal family used "Yelü" as the surname, and the descendants used "Xiao" as the surname, and it was stipulated that the descendants of the royal family Yelu could only marry the descendants of the Xiao family, and nothing else was allowed.
According to the "Liao History·Emperor Concubine Biography", the 20 concubines included in the annals of history can be said to have been painted in the history of the Liao Dynasty. "History" shows a small face, and this is an alternative. She is not surnamed Xiao, and she is not of the Khitan ethnicity. As a Han girl dominates the Daliao harem, she is the queen, and it is most difficult for other Xiao concubines to tolerate. Yes, she was over 40 years old when she entered the palace.
She is the first queen of Liao Shizong Yeluruan, Queen Zhen. Zhen's (904-951), was established as a queen in 947 AD, and was killed by the rebels in September 951. The Zhen clan was the only Han empress in the history of the Liao Dynasty. To be precise, the Zhen clan was 43 years old when he was established as the queen.
In ancient times, because of poor diet and nutrition and poor medical conditions, life is scarce for seventy years, that is to say, life to seventy is a longevity. Coupled with the reasons for the war, the average woman can get married at the age of 15 years old. Just like the young masters in The Legend of Zhen Huan, they were selected into the palace at the age of fourteen or five, and there are even younger eleven or twelve years old. Without comparison, there is no harm, so it seems that our Aunt Zhen has already saved enough for almost three In the Mood for Love.
WHY? What kind of magical power does Aunt Zhen, who is a half-old mistress, have the ability to emerge in the Xiao family and control the entire Daliao Harem? This has to start with Emperor Taizong of Liao conquering the main beam.
Zhen Shi was originally a court lady of the Later Tang Dynasty, and she remained in the palace after the establishment of the Later Jin Dynasty. Yelu Deguang, Taizong of the Liao Dynasty, conquered the beams (now Kaifeng, Henan) and destroyed the Jin Dynasty. At this time, the Zhen family was nearly 40 years old, but she was still charming, dignified and elegant, and she knew how to read. She was favored by Yeluruan, who was traveling with her uncle Yeludeguang. Although Zhen Shi is ten years older than Yelu Ruan, he is very much loved.
The Zhen family gave birth to the third son of Yeluruan, named Yelu Chime, with the word He Lu Jin, and was named King of Ning during the Yelujing period of the Liao Mu Zong. In 947 AD, Yelu Ruan came to the throne and was known as Shizong of Liao in history. Soon Zhen's family was registered as a queen.
Yeluruan and Empress Zhen are sincere, but because of political issues, they have to compromise repeatedly and come up with two queens. Don't laugh at him. In the situation of Khitan at that time, Yeluruan was not securely seated on the throne, but he still insisted that the Zhen clan be above Xiao Sage, which was already very responsible. Empress Zhen is rigorous and respectful, elegant in style, and governs the court in an orderly manner. She never interferes with personal feelings. She also participates in political discussions and is favored and trusted by Yeluruan.
As the saying goes, there are no two days in the sky, and no one has two masters. What's more, the harem of the Liao Dynasty is full of vinegar jars and vinegar jars, in the harem where the Xiao family only covers the sky. , Undefeated, came out of a Han nationality Zhen Clan, who also became the heroine of the harem, this, this, this, it is too unacceptable.
Because the Zhen family is a Han Chinese, it has been criticized by some noble ministers. However, no matter how unwilling you are, the entire Liao people will oppose it. That is no match for the love of Liao Shizong. Don’t the Xiao family like to be a queen? I can canonize another one. Under pressure, Shizong Liao stayed in Tianlu for four years.(950) His original concubine, Xiao Sage, was established as a queen, and there was a situation where two queens coexisted.
In the fifth year of Tianlu (951), Liu Chong, who had just established the Later Han Dynasty, declared himself a minister to the Liao Dynasty and asked to send troops to support him. Regardless of the opposition of everyone and Empress Zhen, Shizong of Liao forcibly led his troops south. His biological mother, Empress Dowager Xiao, and concubines such as Zhen Shi and Xiao Sa Gezhi also joined the army. In September, the army arrived at Xianggu Mountain in Guihua Prefecture. Yeluruan held a banquet in honor of his father in the palace, and the officials were drunk during the dinner. In the evening of the same day, Taining King Yelv Chajiao and other five people launched a rebellion, killing Shizong Liao and Empress Zhen in their sleep. Later, Xiao Sage was also killed.
Soon, General Yeluwu led his army to counter the rebellion, punished Yelv Chacca and his party members, and appointed Taizong's eldest son and Shouan King Yelujing as emperor, who was Liao Muzong. After Mu Zong ascended the throne, Shizong of Liao, Empress Zhen and Empress Xiao were buried together in Yiwulu Mountain (in the west of Beizhen, Jinzhou City, Liaoning Province, and the east of Yixian County). But because Queen Zhen's birth was always underestimated by the Khitan nobles, she never received a posthumous posthumous title after her death.
"Liao History, Empress Biography One" records that King Sejong's concubine Zhen, a member of the Hou Tang Palace, is beautiful. The emperor obtained it from Taizongnan, and he was very fond of it. And ascended to the throne and became queen. Strict and heavy, Fengshen leisurely and elegant. There are laws for internal governance, but no selfishness. Liu Zhiyuan and Guo Wei proclaimed themselves emperors, and Sejong inherited the wealth of power and was dying. Afterwards, they talked with the audience and praised the big plan secretly, but it didn't work. The chaos caused chaos and was killed. Jing Zongli, buried the second in Yiwulu Mountain, built a temple to the side of the mausoleum.
History allows posterity to comment that Khitan’s cultural ban is very serious, and the export of its own culture is not allowed. Therefore, records in Liao History are basically recorded on the basis of the emotions of the royal family and the descendants. "Liao History" only called her "Concubine Sejong" and did not recognize her as a queen. But the subsequent writing contradicted itself, saying that the two empresses of Liao Shizong were buried together ("The Second Empress was buried in Yiwu Lushan").
In short, although she did not have a posthumous title, the identity of the Zhen family as the Queen of Liao Shizong is unquestionable, but it is also the source of her misfortune. An old lady of the age who was not confused, who guarded the palace gate, miraculously met the heroic Khitan general during the war, enjoyed a most beautiful love, and became the queen of Liao. Although she did not die safely, she also realized her life. It is also the ultimate romance to be the same as the quilt and die in the same hole.
In this way, fate is really wonderful. Is it possible to relieve the hatred of married women and the madness to some extent? Haha, it seems that there is a certain number in the dark, instead of being confused in the hope It is better to be yourself like Queen Zhen, be loyal to yourself, enrich yourself, and your own things, which will eventually brighten your life and illuminate your future in the best way.
