The warlord Yang Sen had a say in this. He married 12 wives in his life, and all of his concubines were young girls under 18 years old. Finally, he married the twelfth concubine when he was 90 years old. The concubine who arrived was only 17 years old.

If a man wants to take a concubine, what weird reasons do you think he would have?

Warlord Yang Sen has a say in this. He married 12 wives in his life, and all of his concubines were young girls under 18 years old. Finally, he married the twelfth concubine when he was 90 years old. , and the concubine he married was only 17 years old.

Why do you keep taking concubines and marry so many wives?

Yang Sen has his own weird and shameless reasons: " I am a person who loves to move forward, so as the times advance, I will continue to take in new concubines.

Some of my concubines have bound feet, and some have half-big feet. Some have big feet, some are illiterate, some are literate, some are primary school students, some are middle school students, and some are college students. This is progress!

Besides, they all have their own children, and no one can take care of me. I had to find another one.

The last reason is that I like to move forward. Of course, I like to be with young people, so that I can be energetic! ”

Under this fallacy, he married 12 wives one after another, but These beautiful concubines who gave birth to his children and devoted their youth to him had a very bad ending, which could even be said to be miserable, dead, crazy .

The last concubine once asked him a question when he was bedridden in his later years: You have married so many wives, how many of them are willing to be with you?

The old Yang Sen thought for a while, his expression dark and unclear, as if he was confirming one by one. For a long time, his expression was a little bitter, but in the end his eyes showed a trace of clarity, and he did not speak. But from his expression, the concubine also knew the answer.

Among these wives, there is really one who is willing to follow Yang Sen. Who is it?

With so many wives, how does he manage them?

After all, they gave birth to children for him and followed him. Why did the end result be so tragic?

Forced Marriage of Twelve Concubines

Among the Kuomintang generals, Yang Sen was famous for his many wives and children. He had 12 wives in his life, one first wife, one stepwife, and 10 concubines.

He has a total of 43 children . I'm afraid he can't even recognize the children himself. What's funny is that during his political career, he also vigorously advocated women's liberation . He was despised by the common people, and privately he was disgusted with his ridiculous behavior. Feel shameless.

Yang Sen's first wife was Zhang . At this time, Yang Sen was just in his early 20s and had no reputation. His father was just a small military attache. In 1908, he entered the Sichuan Army Crash Course.

His parents ordered him to marry Mr. Zhang under the arrangement of his parents. Ms. Zhang was a completely feudal woman. She had bound feet and was not open to the public. She had never attended a modern school and only knew how to serve her husband and in-laws at home.

Compared with the dozen or so concubines that Yang Sen later married, this Zhang family was really unremarkable, but because was Yang Sen's first wife, she was still unusual in his heart.

To put it bluntly, Yang Sen was unknown at this time, and men with no money or power were generally honest. Every time he came back from school, he and Mr. Zhang got along very harmoniously.

looked very happy, but whether due to poor health or overwork, passed away due to an ordinary cold.

After Zhang's death, his parents started looking for their son's next wife non-stop. Although Yang Sen was still very sad, he felt that it was only a matter of time before he continued to marry a wife, so he no longer felt awkward and allowed his parents to do whatever they wanted. try to find.

It is a pity that Mrs. Zhang worked so hard for their family but left no children.

The second wife that his parents found for Yang Sen was Tan Zhengde, who was also a feudal woman. After marriage, Yang Sen gave birth to a son and a daughter, but Yang Sen had no feelings for her.

He may still remember Zhang in his heart, so he doesn't have a good look towards Tan Zhengde.

From our perspective, this is very unfair to Tan Zhengde. Since you have married into a family, you should treat them well. Marrying into a family who gave you a child and engaged in cold violence is really disturbing. Chilling.

After Yang Sen joined the army, his career gradually improved and he went home very rarely. Tan Zhengde could just live his own life at home. Although he felt sad, fortunately, he didn't have to see him come back and be upset.

Yang Sen The third concubine was Liu Gufang. In 1913, Yang Sen came to Kunming on official business. The Yunnan Army general Huang Yucheng sent Yang Sen to supervise the construction of his villa. When he got there, Liu Zhuqing, the leader of the villa builder, took a fancy to Yang Sen. .

He saw that Yang Sen had a good appearance, a strong body, and was good at getting married. He was favored by his superiors and had a bright future, so he thought about marrying his daughter to him. However, Yang Sen concealed the fact that he had a family, and just like that, he got married. Liu Gufang.

At first, he doted on Liu Gufang for a while, but when the novelty wore off, he became indifferent to her. Liu Gufang felt depressed when she saw him marrying concubines, died after contracting lung disease.

After the founding of the Republic of China, Yang Sen served in the Sichuan Army and the Yunnan Army successively. However, Yang Sen was a Sichuan native after all. After repeated consideration, he went to Sichuan with Zhao Youxin, and since then he concentrated on developing in the Sichuan Army.

Once on the street, he saw the very beautiful Tian Hengqiu. He was immediately attracted by her beauty and immediately went to Tian's house to ask to marry Tian Hengqiu.

At that time, Tian Hengqiu was already engaged and was happily getting married, but unexpectedly, Yang Sen jumped out halfway.

The Tian family is well off, and their daughter has also made a choice. They will have a happy and beautiful life in the future. However, no one wants to marry Yang Sen as a concubine, but Yang Sen relies on his own power to maliciously suppress the Tian family's business, and finally forces Tian Hengqiu to marry Give yourself .

Tian Hengqiu felt that things had come to an end and it was better to live a good life now. She took good care of the housework and generously helped Yang Sen marry many women. Yang Sen was very happy and attached great importance to Tian Hengqiu and took her with him to all activities.

But Tian Hengqiu suddenly suffered from cerebral hemorrhage. His body was paralyzed, his speech was incomplete, and he sometimes drooled. After seeing her, Yang Sen no longer liked her and abandoned her like worn out shoes.

Yang Sen married several wives. His subordinates all knew that he was lustful, and some of them took the initiative to give their daughters to him as concubines in order to curry favor with him.

When Yang Sen was stationed with the Yunnan Army in Luzhou , his mansion was adjacent to the Xiao family. His secretary had a daughter named Xiao Bangqiong. He had seen this little girl. She was still young at that time, so he didn't see anything special. of.

Later, after he returned to the Sichuan Army, he once met Chopin and Joan . Yang Sen praised: "This girl has grown so big now and looks good."

One of his subordinates, Xiong, heard the implication of his words and encouraged the Xiao family to Daughter married Yang Sen.

This fifth concubine, Chopin Qiong, was both talented and beautiful. She worked as a teacher, had literary talents and could write poems. Yang Sen did like her for a while, but in 1931, Chopin Qiong drowned while taking a ship.

Yang Sen was very sad for a while, because he felt that he quite liked this fifth concubine. Once after drinking, he saw a person who looked very similar to Chopin Qiong, and he raped her regardless.

Later, he found out that she was a maid in the family. Although she looked ordinary, he had a relationship with her, so he took her as his sixth concubine. Anyway, having one more concubine and one less concubine made no difference to him.

This sixth aunt is Chen Shunrong . Because she was born as a maid, she is timid in doing things. Yang Sen looks down on her and beats her up at every turn.

Chen Shunrong was driven crazy under long-term torture, and was later thrown into 's hometown of Guang'an.

The seventh concubine Zeng Guizhi was Yang Sen's adopted daughter. After she was raised, she saw that she grew more and more beautiful, so he took her into consideration and forcibly took her as a concubine. She wanted to study, so Yang Sen hired a tutor for her. Send her to Shanghai to go to college.

The seventh aunt was so young and beautiful that she fell in love with a man named Chen in school. When Yang Sen found out about this, he was furious and wanted to kill Zeng Guizhi and set an example for other aunts. That's it, He ordered his subordinates to kill the two of them, and tied her and the man's bodies together in the pond.

Later, people named the bridge on the river "Bitter Yuanyang Bridge".

The eighth aunt is Wang Defang. She married Yang Sen because she fell into a trap. In order to curry favor with him, one of Yang Sen's subordinates set a trap to force the Wang family to marry their daughter to Yang Sen.

Wang Defang was only 15 years old when she married him. After the marriage, she gave birth to a child for him and continued to study at Guang'an Middle School. However, she was extremely disgusted with Yang Sen's robbery and did not give him a good look. Later, she committed suicide due to various reasons.

Auntie Ninth is Cai Wenna . She was called the "school beauty" when she was in middle school. She was sent to Yang Sen's mansion to live with him when she was 14 years old. She didn't understand anything at that time, so Yang Sen had a relationship with her.

Later, when she was studying in the Sociology Department of West China University, she fell in love with a male classmate. After Yang Sen found out about it, she stupidly begged him to divorce her and let her go so that she could find her own life.

How could Yang Sen let her go? Not only would he not let her go, he was also going to use her to scare other concubines and warn them not to have any objections.

One night, when Cai Wenna went back to her room to prepare for bed, Yang Sen's subordinate came in with a gun and shot her.

Yang Sen also ordered other aunts and wives to come over to see her death. They were all trembling with fear.

Cai Wenna’s body was randomly thrown into a dry well.

The tenth aunt is Zheng Wenru , and she was also deceived. A person from Yang Sen's military medical office was a distant relative of Zheng Wenru. Seeing her good looks, he tricked her into going to Yang Sen's mansion. As soon as Yang Sen saw the beautiful Zheng Wenru, he took her as a concubine that night.

Later, she fell ill and looked haggard. When Yang Sen saw her, she abandoned her shoes and went to find a new love.

The eleventh aunt is Hu Jieyu, the daughter of an old servant of the Yang Sen family. When the thirteen or fourteen-year-old Hu Jieyu came to Chongqing to study, she lived in Yang Sen's house. In my mind, I insist on taking a concubine.

Father Hu disagreed and took his daughter back to his hometown. Yang Sen chased her and forced her in with both force and force. Father Hu was so angry that he went out to find a way out on his own.

After the above two concubines had an affair, Yang Sen also learned his lesson and treated Hu Jieyu relatively well.

Later, Yang Sen followed the Kuomintang to Taiwan, where he was reused by Chiang Kai-shek .

When he was 90 years old, he took another concubine. The twelfth concubine was a 17-year-old girl . The two of them are now like a grandfather and grandson.

Ways to Manage the "Harem"

Yang Sen is a passionate person, so he doesn't speak affectionately to anyone. He takes turns staying with more than a dozen wives.

In order to let his concubines serve him well, he set an incentive policy for them. If any of his concubines became pregnant, he would give him 5,000 yuan in living expenses. If he gave birth to a child for himself, he would give him 5,000 yuan in living expenses. A concubine deposited a bonus of 20,000 yuan into her bank account.

This money was a lot of money at the time, so for this bonus, many concubines worked hard to give birth to children for him, so in the end Yang Sen had 43 children.

Although Yang Sen himself is affectionate, he has very strict requirements for his concubines. He wants them to live a life of asceticism. playing polo watching movies, drinking coffee and many other entertainment activities are not allowed.

Once he finds out that a concubine is having an affair outside, he will kill the concubine and the man outside without mercy. In his eyes, these concubines in

's home are not "people", but objects that he can give away, rob, beat, and scold at will.

He pays great attention to his health. Even in his 70s, he still insists on exercising every morning. His young concubine will get up at 5 o'clock in the morning to play tennis and horseback riding with him, and other concubines will have to watch him even if they don't participate. .

He would also ask them to learn classical Chinese, play the piano, learn English, etc. If they did not do well or he was not satisfied, he would beat and scold them at every turn. He called this "full house red" and made all the concubines kneel on the ground. , he took turns beating them with a whip.

For example, when he married Zheng Wenru, because Zheng Wenru was very young, she became his concubine at the age of 17, and many of his children were older than Zheng Wenru. They didn't want to call her "Zheng Ma", so they all called her "Mother Zheng". She is Miss Zheng.

Yang Sen felt that this was the children's disobedience to him. He would not allow anyone to disobey his orders, so he asked all the children to kneel on the ground and call Zheng Wenru "Mother Zheng". If they did not call, he would whip them with a whip.

Yang Sen would let these concubines take turns to manage the affairs of the house, but they only included transactions, not money management. He did not trust anyone. He hoarded a lot of money himself, but put it all in foreign banks.

When he went to Taiwan with the Kuomintang, Yang Sen only took the youngest concubine Hu Jieyu with him, and did not take any other concubines with him, leaving them to fend for themselves. Perhaps because Hu Jieyu was still young and he was not tired of playing, so he chose He took her with him, and when he was in Taiwan, he took a 17-year-old concubine, which shows his affection.

In his later years, Zhang Lingfeng asked him: Which concubines were willing to follow him?

He pondered for a long time without speaking. Perhaps among these dozen concubines, only his first wife Zhang treated him sincerely. Who asked him to only treat them as playthings and exchange sincerity for sincerity? What did he pay?
