Why did Zhen Mi, a woman who combines beauty with her husband, Cao Pi, died?

How beautiful can a woman be? It is "Pan Ruo Jinghong, graceful as a dragon", "The bright sun rises as the sun rises, and it shines like , and the green waves emerge from the lotus", it is "as if the moon is covered by light clouds, and the breeze is like the back of the wind." Snow"?

An "Fu of Luo Shen" made our protagonist today Zhen Mi became famous more than a thousand years ago. The wife of Yuan Xi, the son of Yuan Shao and the son of Cao Cao, Cao Pi, gave birth to the third generation of the Cao family, and Cao Rui. As "Queen Wen Zhao". Nowadays, with the popularity of various film and television works, Mrs. Zhen's popularity is getting higher and higher, and she has a trend of becoming the "first beauty of the Three Kingdoms".

Zhen Mi's reputation is almost familiar to many people. But for Zhen Mi's beauty and talent, almost many people admire it very much, and even the three of Cao Cao who were very powerful at that time were deeply fascinated when they saw Zhen Mi. It can be seen that such a woman is not an ordinary beauty.

But for such a beautiful woman, why did her husband Cao Pi die so tragically that she was even humiliated by stuffing her mouth with filth after her death?

Zhen Mi, a native of Zhongshan Wuji (now Wuji County, Hebei Province), the daughter of Shang Cai Ling Zhen Yi . In that era of wars and disputes, our protagonist Zhen Mi still lived the life of a master. It is reported that the Zhen family is an aristocratic family in Hebei. Although it has declined when it is passed down to the generation of Zhen Yi, it still serves as the upper Cai Ling.

And Zhen Yi has three sons and five daughters. The eldest son Zhen Yu died unfortunately. The second son Zhen Yan and the third son Zhen Yao both served as filial piety. His five daughters were Zhen Jiang, Zhen Tuo, Zhen Dao, and Zhen. Rong and Zhen Mi, each style is outstanding, especially the youngest daughter Zhen Mi is even more beautiful.

From the date of birth,Zhen Mi was predicted to have an extraordinary life. According to the "Three Kingdoms·Wei Shu·Emperor Concubine Biography": "Every sleep in the house, it seems as if someone is holding a jade garment, and the one who covers it is often strange. :'This woman is expensive.'"

In addition to her beauty that is different from ordinary people, since childhood, Zhen Mi has been smart and smart, far more than her brothers and sisters, and is deeply loved by her mother. Growing up in such a family, she naturally received a good traditional feudal education, and her thoughts were in-depth. According to the "Three Kingdoms: Biography of Empresses": "In this world of chaos, you buy more treasures. Every husband is not guilty, and it is a crime to bear a bi. If both left and right are hungry, it is better to give encouragement to the relatives and neighbors, as a kindness. The family praises goodness. That is to say from the latter.”

means that when Zhen Mi was a teenager, she advised her mother not to accumulate gold, jade and money, but to actively open positions to help the poor. In her view, if we are not benevolent in such troubled times, it will not only violate the way of sages, but also become the source of disaster.

In the Yellow Turban uprisings all over the country, many prominent families were destroyed, but the Zhen family was retained, which fully demonstrates Zhen Mi's vision. In addition, there is one more thing that can accurately reflect her knowledge, knowledge and kindness. According to the " weilue" record: "The fourteenth year afterwards, the brother of the bereavement was mourning, and she was widowed. Respectful, do everything in his own way, behave like a child, and be very kind. The stepmother is strict and treats all the Buddhas regularly, and the next few see her mother:'My brother died early, and my sister-in-law was young to observe the festival. Therefore, treat it as a woman, and love as a woman.'”

After Zhen's mother lost her child in old age, she would often anger her widow-in-law, and Zhen Mi was only fourteen years old. Can promptly discourage the mother to treat his sister-in-law and nephew well. She believes that the death of her brother Zhen's family is sad, but the saddest person is her sister-in-law, who deserves more relief and care.

In addition to beauty and wisdom, Zhen Mi has also been a difficult person to tease from childhood. When Zhen Mi was eight years old, there were people riding horses and performing acrobatics outside of Zhen Mi's yard. Zhen's family and several sisters went to the attic to watch, but she did not go. Several sisters asked her strangely, and Zhen answered that : "Is this a girl watching it?"

Zhen Mi likes reading very much,He has a strong knowledge, and as long as he reads the article, he can immediately understand it. He also used her brother's pen and inkstone to write many times. The brother laughed at her and said: "Women should study female workers. What's the use of studying? Do you still want to be female in the future? Doctor (an official name at the time)?" Zhen replied: "In ancient times, virtuous women had to learn from the success or failure of their predecessors to warn themselves. If you don't study, what can you learn from?"

From this point of view, Zhen Mi's thinking is actually more advanced than our modern thinking. The theory of the uselessness of reading is a social trend of thought that denies knowledge and learning. The fundamental reason for these contemporary "uselessness of reading theories" lies in the misunderstanding of "books." Nowadays, many people regard reading as a tool for fame and gain, as a capital to show off, but they have long forgotten that the essence of reading is to improve one's self-cultivation. Zhen Mi's "reading theory" is worthy of our study and reflection.

By the way, the Yuan family was the number one in the Eastern Han Dynasty , and it was even called the "fourth generation and three males". Yuan Shao’s father Yuan Feng served as Sikong, uncle Yuan Kui served as Taifu; Yuan Feng’s father Yuan Tang served as Taiwei; Yuan Tang’s uncle Yuan Chang served as Sikong; Yuan Chang’s father 袁安 Served as Situ.

In the second year of Jian'an, Kong Rong replaced with the emperor talisman. Han Xiandi sent envoy , Yecheng_span Ji gave , and Yuan Shaozhou gave span2 as the general , Youzhou, Qingzhou and 合州 all the affairs of these four places, become the most powerful branch of the princes. And Zhongshan Wuji, where Zhen Mi is located, is within Yuan Shao's jurisdiction.

Yuan Shao has three sons,They are the eldest son Yuan Tan, the second son Yuan Xi, and the youngest son Yuan Shang . Yuan Tan followed his father in the North and South for many years, and made remarkable achievements, becoming the strongest member of the Yuan family. The youngest son, Yuan Shang, was suave, and was quite a father's style, and he was favored by Yuan Shao. The above two sons are the only two contenders for Yuan Shao's title, and only the second son Yuan Xi is the most unsatisfied.

However, because of Zhen Mi’s reputation and her beautiful and charming origins, many aristocratic families also came to propose marriage. Yuan Shao and his wife Liu are no exception. They came to marry their second son Yuan Xi. Zhen Mi became his wife after the famous door.

Of course, what is the real reason for Zhen Mi to marry Yuan Xi is no longer known, so I can only make a guess. Zhen Mi's reputation is far-reaching, she is slim, virtuous, gentle and kind, and she is not an exaggeration to call her "Gone with the Troubles". On the other hand, Yuan Xi's life can be described as mediocre and ineffective, and there is no way to control it. His subordinates Jiao Zhen and Zhang Nan launched a mutiny and commanded the army to attack Yuan Xi, who fled to Wuhuan in a hurry. From this point of view, Yuan Xi has neither personal charm nor military talent. The combination of the two really feels like an overlord tying the bow. With Yuan Shao's power at the time, Zhen Mi was probably forced to marry Yuan Xi.

In the fifth year of Jian'an, 200 years, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought a strategic decisive battle in Guandu . With the help of and Xuyou, Cao Cao, who was almost certain to lose, successfully attacked Yuan Jun’s granary in wuchao, and completely defeated Yuan Jun’s main force and completed a battle. A famous battle that wins more with less. After the defeat, Yuan Shao had to flee back to his base camp Yecheng in embarrassment, vomiting blood and died.

In fact, before the siege, Cao Cao had heard about it. Yuan Shao's second daughter-in-law, Zhen Mi, was a stunning beauty with pity and expectation, so he secretly ordered the soldiers to guard and protect Zhen Mi. But he did not expect that his son Cao Pi would meet Zhen Mi first and fell in love at first sight.

In the thirty-third chapter of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms,This is how Zhen Mi and Cao Pi met for the first time: "As soon as Cao Pi entered the backyard of Yuan's Mansion, he saw two women in tattered clothes crying. Upon asking, it was Yuan Shao's wife and Yuan Xi's wife Zhen Mi. But when When the filthy-faced Zhen Mi raised his head, Cao Pi was shocked for an instant, and said: "This woman really has a beautiful appearance, ice muscles and bones, and she is indeed a beautiful beauty.

When I first saw this moment, Cao Pi fell into her abyss and immediately put Zhen Mi into her back home. Cao Pi loved her very much, and gradually she also had feelings for Cao Pi, and soon gave birth to her son Cao Rui. And Dongxiang princess two children. For her, Cao Pi drove away his wife, Ren, and helped her to be his wife. During the period, Zhen Mi repeatedly stopped her, which was quite virtuous.

In addition to the relationship between husband and wife, she did her best to her mother-in-law. Filial piety, generous to servants, and good reputation in the mansion.

She understands that love is not an object, love is a relationship, it is the time and effort you spend on the other party.

She settles down with her beauty and lives her life with sincerity.

Unfortunately, even if he chose Cao Pi, who loves himself, Zhen Mi's final fate is still distressing.

After Zhen Chen married Cao Pi, she saw Cao Pi's talents, so Pi was born with affection. She also loved and knew her, and the two had a short period of love and affection, and they had a child (later Wei Mingdi Cao Rui) and a daughter (the princess of Dongxiang).

Cao Cao died in 220 AD , And Cao Pi inherited the position of King Wei. After that, Cao Pi recklessly looked for beauties as his wives and concubines, and even the wives and concubines left by his father were accepted. At this time, Zhen Mi was inevitably old and declining. In comparison, Zhen Mi fell out of favor.

Not long after the death of his old father Cao Cao, Cao Pi declared himself emperor. However, he did not have a queen for a long time after he became the emperor. Because at this time, besides Zhen Mi, there were still There is noble concubine Queen Guo has the strength to aspire. Cao Pi is indeed hesitating between Zhen Mi and Queen Guo. He loves Zhen Mi, but in the process of Cao Pi and the brothers competing for the eldest son, Queen Guo has repeatedly made conspiracies. Very politically savvy, based on this, Cao Pi can't do without her, and the two are more like partners.

This Queen Guo tried her best to fight for the next position, and repeatedly slandered Zhen Mi in front of Cao Pi. Later when Cao Pi moved to Luoyang, Queen Guo succeeded in her side, but Zhen Mi lived alone in Yecheng and could not accompany her.

Suffered by Cao Pi's public humiliation and ruthless neglect, Zhen Mi did not choose to compromise, and even composed a song " Tang Shang " to save this relationship. Unexpectedly, this not only did not restore Cao Pi's mind, but it became the beginning of a more tragic life for Zhen Mi.

She wrote the song "Tang Xing":

The gold of all the mouths makes the kings live apart.

When Nian Jun went to me, I was always sad and sad.

I want to see your color, but I feel sad.

Nianjun is often miserable, and can't sleep at night.

From the poem, one can truly realize that after the husband and wife have been separated for more than a year, Zhen Mi is finally struggling.

She hates Queen Guo for her slander and damage, which makes them stray from virtue, and she also deeply expresses her longing for her husband Cao Pi.

She is the kind of woman who recognizes the truth of life and still loves life; she sees through the shortness of love, and still yearns for love.

However, what she never expected was the friendship she poured into Cao Pi in "Tang Shang", Cao Pi not only was not half moved, but immediately gave her the death penalty.

This is because Queen Guo, who is determined to get to the lower position, took advantage of this. She took advantage of the fact that Cao Rui was born less than a month ago and falsely claimed that Zhen Shi married Cao Pi after she became pregnant. In other words, Cao Rui is very likely to be Yuan Xi's son. Not only that, this poem expressing sincere love and thoughts to Cao Pi was mistaken by the suspicious Cao Pi as a poem written for his brother Cao Zhi .

According to " Three Kingdoms", Cao Pi once asked Zhou Xuan: "I dreamt that two tiles from the palace fell off and turned into double mandarin ducks. What is this sign?" Zhou Xuan said : "I'm afraid someone will die in the harem."Cao Pi said: "I was talking about lying to you." Zhou Xuan said: "Dreaming is something in your mind. If you can do what you say, you can fortune it. Before the words were finished, Huang Menling came to report that someone in the harem had killed each other. Soon after, Cao Pi asked Zhou Xuan again: "I dreamt that a plume of blue smoke went up into the sky yesterday. Zhou Xuan said, "I am afraid that there will be a noble woman who died unjustly in the world." "At that time, Cao Pi had sent someone to give Zhen Mici the edict to die. He regretted what Zhou Xuan said, so he sent someone to chase the messenger, but unfortunately it was too late.

At this time, Cao Pi may regret it, but Zhen Mi Cao Pi was very worried that he would be punished for his mistakes, so he ordered Zhen Mi to hide his face and bury him with chaff in his mouth. This view believes that Zhen Mi will be buried in this way. They can’t open their mouths to appeal their grievances, and they will not be recognized by the king.

This statement may only be made up by people, but it may also be the closest to the truth. After all, the ancients believed in gods very much. But there is no doubt that It is true that Zhen Mi was given the death by Cao Pi. It is really embarrassing that such a talented woman ended with this sad ending.

She was only 40 years old at the time. When she was buried, her face was covered with hair and her mouth was stuffed. Rice bran. Just because it is said that this punishment will make the deceased on Huangquan Road, the soul’s grievances have nowhere to tell.

When he loves her, he loves vigorously, and when he does not love, he also breaks completely.

, He has forgotten, she also smiled like a flower, drooping like a moon.

After Cao Rui took the throne, she asked the Queen Mother about her mother's death several times, and the Queen Mother was so worried that she collapsed. At this time, Li explained to Ming Emperor Cao Rui that Zhen Shi In fact, she was trapped and killed by the Guo family. Cao Rui was in sorrow, and under her anger, she buried the Queen Mother Guo in the same way.

Zhen Mi's life was exhausted and she was finally compensated by her destiny. All wind and rain will eventually turn into The dust of history, only "Rose of the Luoshen" and her beauty, have passed away for thousands of generations.
