In official history, what is the final outcome of Liang Huaiji?

In the TV series "Qingpingle", Liang Huaiji played by Bian Cheng completely subverted our previous impression of eunuchs. Liang Huaiji in the play is calm and quiet, able to calligraphy and painting, and is more like a talented and graceful man. He has no disagreement with the distinguished Princess Fukang in temperament. In the play, Liang Huaiji and Princess Fukang know each other and love each other, but it is destined to be a tragedy without results. In history, Liang Huaiji was indeed the servant of Princess Fukang. So in history, what is the final outcome of Liang Huaiji?

In the Northern Song Dynasty, the court's servants were divided into the Ministry of Internal Servant and the Province of Internal Servant. According to the records of "Song History · Officials Sixth", entering the Ministry of Internal Servicing is forbidden, that is, in charge of the harem and princesses, also known as "back province"; while the Ministry of Internal Servant is in charge of conveying the will, guarding the court, cleaning and sanitation. The emperor and other affairs are also called "former provinces." When there are insufficient personnel in the province, the province can be transferred to make up for it.

When Liang Huaiji first entered the palace, he was assigned to the former province and also served as a errand in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Liang Huaiji worked as an errand at the Hanlin Book Art Bureau and the Academy of Fine Arts successively. Because he is very clever, he has a lot of knowledge in painting and calligraphy, and he also has certain accomplishments in painting and calligraphy.

Later, Liang Huaiji was transferred from the Ministry of Internal Attendance to the Province of Internal Attendance, entered Yifeng Pavilion, and became the servant of Princess Fukang, the eldest daughter of Song Renzong Zhao Zhen.

Renzong Zhao Zhen had few children throughout his life, and his eldest daughter, Princess Fukang, was only born when he was 28. Nearly 30 years old, with this daughter, Princess Fukang is naturally a favorite of thousands.

When Princess Fukang was young, Renzong wanted to quell Khitan’s request for Ying and Mo Erzhou. She wanted to use the clan letter to secure the daughter of King Zhao Yunning and the eldest son of Yeluzongzhen, the eldest son of Khitan. Wang Yelu Hongji.

But what Khitan fancy is Princess Fukang, the eldest daughter of Renzong Zhao Zhen.

Princess Fukang is the jewel in the palm of Renzong, so she can't give up.

So Renzong sent Zhizhigao Fubi to deal with the Khitan envoys on the grounds that Princess Fukang was young.

Finally, Fu Bi went to Khitan as an envoy and promised to give Khitan an increase in annual coins every year, and the marriage relationship was stopped.

Although Renzong avoided this precious daughter from marrying a foreign land, Renzong personally created a tragic marriage for Princess Fukang.

Renzong's biological mother was the maid of the Queen Mother Liu E, Li. After Li was fortunate by Zhao Heng of Zhenzong, he gave birth to Zhao Zhen of Renzong.

At that time, the concubine Liu E, who was beloved by Zhenzong, had no children, so Zhao Zhen was possessed by Concubine Liu, and Zhao Zhen's biological mother Li did not dare to reveal this secret.

In order to comfort the Li family, Liu E found Li Yonghe’s younger brother Li Yonghe in the folks. Li Yonghe is destitute and destitute, making a living by selling paper money. Because of his sister Li's sake, this entered official career.

After Liu E passed away, Renzong learned of his life experience.

Since Renzong's biological mother Li has passed away, Renzong compensated his uncle Li Yonghe for the memory of her mother.

Li Yonghe was appointed as Zhangxin Jiedushi, Tongping Zhangshi, etc.

Although Li Yonghe is a high-ranking official, he is still looked down upon by his colleagues because of his humble background.

Therefore, in order to improve the status of the mother family, when Princess Fukang was ten years old, Renzong appointed Li Yonghe's second son Dongtou priest Li Wei as General Zuowei and Captain Fu Ma, and engaged Princess Fukang. with him.

According to historical records, Li Wei behaved vulgarly, reluctantly, and not handsome in appearance. This marriage naturally dissatisfied Princess Fukang and her biological mother Miao Shuyi.

However, in order to favor his mother and fulfill his filial piety, Renzong is not allowed to change the marriage.

In the second year of Jiayou, Princess Fukang is at least 20 years old and has reached marriageable age.

Renzong named Princess Fukang as Princess of Yan Kingdom and made an exception to hold a canonization ceremony for the princess. Princess Fukang's birth mother, Miao Shuyi, also became a concubine.

In August of the same year, Princess Fukang married Li Wei, her husband.

Liang Huaiji, as Princess Fukang’s most beloved servant, was appointed by Renzong as the princess house for business, and was in charge of the affairs of the house as the princess house.Service.

Princess Fukang's married life is not happy, she has no feelings with Li Wei at all. And Princess Fukang's mother-in-law, Yang, was also very dissatisfied with Princess Fukang's snubbing of her son Li Wei, and questioned and mocked the close relationship between Princess Fukang and her servant Liang Huaiji.

The distress in Princess Fukang's heart can only be told to her servant Liang Huaiji.

Princess Fukang and Liang Huaiji were peeped by her mother-in-law Yang when they were drinking and exchanging love each other late at night. Subsequently, Princess Fukang and Yang clashed fiercely, and the enraged Princess Fukang even fought against Yang. The princess and Li Wei also fought each other.

The princess Fukang in anger was embarrassed and left the princess house with Liang Huaiji overnight, buckled the palace gate at night, and returned to the palace.

In ancient times, the palace gates of the imperial city could not be opened at night, and offenders would be severely punished by the criminal law. Therefore, Princess Fukang was impeached by the remonstrators one after another for the deduction of the palace gate at night.

And Liang Huaiji, as a minister in the princess's house, was also considered by the remonstrators to be responsible for the princess and her husband.

Under the pressure of the remonstrator, Renzong Zhao Zhen ordered Liang Huaiji to be expelled from the capital and sent to Xijing Luoyang for cleaning.

Because Liang Huaiji was exiled and the nurses beside Princess Fukang were ordered to leave, Princess Fukang was distressed, nearly collapsed, or seeking death or arson, making Renzong heartbroken.

In order to appease his beloved daughter, Renzong recalled Liang Huaiji to the palace a year after he was banished.

After Liang Huaiji returned to the princess, the remonstrators headed by Sima Guang accused Renzong of accommodating his daughter and should not recall Liang Huaiji.

The helpless Renzong had to transfer Liang Huaiji away from Princess Fukang, and entered the Ministry of Internal Servant, that is, "the former province", away from the harem, and no longer see Princess Fukang.

At this time, Li Wei, who had been released from Weizhou, was asked by his brother Li Zhang to request Renzong on his behalf to dissolve the marriage relationship with Princess Fukang.

Therefore, Li Wei was deprived of his status as a man. Princess Fukang was also reduced to Princess of Yi State.

However, before his death, Renzong still hoped that Princess Fukang would reunite with Li Wei, regaining Li Wei's status as a cohort, and promoted Princess Fukang as Princess Qi.

However, Princess Fukang and Li Wei kept separate until the death of Princess Fukang during the Shenzong period.

Princess Fukang was only thirty-three years old when she died. At this time, Liang Huaiji was serving as a servant in Huangmen in the painting academy of the former province. Since then, there is no record of Liang Huaiji in official history.

As a "stained" court servant, Liang Huaiji's rank is unlikely to be upgraded. His final outcome is most likely to be in loneliness for a lifetime.
