We often see such a sentence from books or film and television dramas, saying "Three thousand beauties in the emperor's harem". Although it is an exaggeration, it also reflects the luxurious life of the ancient emperors from the side, and I really envy a group of bachelors.
No wonder Yuan Shikai is willing to "risk the disapproval of the world" to be the emperor.
So how did the emperor get his physiological enlightenment when he had so many concubines?Today, we will take Ming Xianzong Zhu Jianshen's physiological enlightenment teacher Wan Guifei as an example.
Wan Guifei, named Wan Zhen'er, is the nurse of Zhu Jianshen of Ming Xianzong.
Zhu Jianshen's background is bizarre, his father Yingzong Zhu Qizhen was taken captive by Wara (in fact, he is a descendant of the remnant Yuan, in western Inner Mongolia) due to the change of Tumubao (pù, Tongpu), and his uncle Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne as Emperor Jing and made him the crown prince.
But after a long time, his uncle regretted it, deposed him again, and made his son the crown prince.
The little hairy baby Zhu Jianshen was terrified, who made his father have to be a general and a generalissimo, now it's okay, not to mention being captured by Wara, he can't even keep his position as the prince.
Fortunately, his father was more competitive, and after being released back by Wara, he was imprisoned in the South Palace, but he was able to restore successfully, and Zhu Jianshen became the prince again.
In this alternating hot and cold situation, it was the nurse Wanzhen'er who has been accompanying Zhu Jianshen, so that he has his own place to explore in the dire situation.
Zhu Jianshen is very grateful to Wan Zhen'er, because of Wan Zhen'er's existence, Zhu Jianshen can feel at ease and get the only little warmth in this time.
Although Wan Zhen'er is Zhu Jianshen's nurse in her name, she has actually become Zhu Jianshen's physiological enlightenment teacher.
Why is there such a quick turnaround?This has to start with Wan Zhen'er's life experience.
Wan Zhen'er's life experience is actually quite pitiful, her father Wan Gui was relocated to Bazhou because of the crime of his relatives. Due to the long distance, it was inconvenient to take four-year-old Wan Zhen'er, so Wan Gui entrusted her to a friend.
But the situation of my friend's family is not optimistic, and I can't even support myself and have to bring a drag oil bottle. So he sent the four-year-old Wan Zhen'er to the palace as a palace maid.
This Wan Zhen'er was born cute, and was photographed by Zhu Qizhen's mother, Zhu Jianshen's grandmother, Empress Dowager Sun, and became a maid in the dormitory.
Under the law of survival in the harem, Wan Zhen'er, who is bullied everywhere, gradually shows her desire for power.
She dressed herself up every day, looking forward to one day when Emperor Zhu Qizhen would get drunk and accidentally spoil herself. In this way, the sparrow can be transformed into a phoenix. Even if you are a nobleman, you are not a slave who can be compared.
It's a pity that her calculation was wrong, Zhu Qizhen was only interested in being a general to fight, and gave herself the title of "Governor's Military Affairs Mighty General and Chief Military Officer", but he didn't look at Wan Zhen'er.
This made Wan Zhen'er very annoyed, and almost wondered if she was a beauty and whether Zhu Qizhen was a man.
Fortunately, things soon took a turn for the better, and Zhu Jianshen was made the crown prince, and he was raised by the Empress Dowager Sun.
So Wan Zhen'er took advantage of the favor of the Empress Dowager Sun and got the opportunity to be Zhu Jianshen's nursing mother.
Since it's not okay to be your concubine, it's okay to be your daughter-in-law.
So Wan Zhen'er and Zhu Jianshen were tired of being together every day, intentionally or unintentionally enlightening Zhu Jianshen.
After going back and forth, Zhu Jianshen's infatuation with Wan Zhen'er became more and more uncontrollable.
And in the process, Wan Zhen'er also confided her dreams, and she told Zhu Jianshen that what she envied the most was the masters and concubines in the harem.
Every day, clothes come to stretch out their hands, food comes to open their mouths, and life is not happy.
Endless silk and satin, endless delicacies of the mountains and seas, and endless glory and wealth. At this moment, stars appeared in Wan Zhen'er's eyes.
All this was seen by Zhu Jianshen, but her immature mouth released her husband's bold words, "When I become the emperor, I will make you the queen!."I will share this magnificent river and mountain with you".
Wan Zhen'er hurriedly blocked Zhu Jianshen's mouth, afraid that others would hear the conversation between the two, that was the crime of killing the head!Even with his family, he had to sit and be punished.
You must know that Wan Zhen'er was twenty years old when she took care of Zhu Jianshen, and Zhu Jianshen was only three years old, but poor Wan Zhen'er was 17 years older than Zhu Jianshen. It was actually made to make a child promise such a funny joke.
But Zhu Jianshen took it seriously, and Wan Zhen'er also took it seriously.
When Zhu Qizhen died, 18-year-old Zhu Jianshen inherited the throne, Wan Zhen'er had taken care of the prince for 15 years, and he was 35 years old.
The first thing Zhu Jianshen did when he became the emperor was naturally to make Wan Zhen'er the queen. If nothing else, I just want to give Wan Zhen'er more beautiful things, and I don't want to say much about glory and wealth.
This proposal of the new emperor Zhu Jianshen naturally caused an uproar in the court, and the ministers suggested that Wan Zhen'er, the demon girl who led the bad emperor, should be executed. This is impossible in terms of etiquette and ancestral family law.
How could Zhu Jianshen listen to the words of these sour and pedantic people, like a donkey, no one could let him let go of this idea.
Even if some of the Imperial History and Six Departments of the Imperial Court were killed in the court, 18-year-old Zhu Jianshen did not back down at all.
Seeing that this rebellious period is a little too long, Zhu Jianshen is really difficult to do.
The ministers had no choice but to let Zhu Jianshen's mother, Mrs. Zhou, clean him up.
Until in the harem, Zhu Jianshen's mother, Empress Dowager Zhou, severely reprimanded Zhu Jianshen and told him that this matter must not be fulfilled for him, otherwise Zhu Qizhen has a son, and he Zhu Jianshen also has 8 brothers.
Seeing that this matter could not be done, I was even more afraid that I would not be able to be the emperor. Zhu Jianshen gave up the idea of making Wan Zhen'er the queen.
Under the pressure of the Empress Dowager Zhou and the first ministers, Zhu Jianshen was forced to set up another queen, the Wu family.
But Zhu Jianshen doesn't like this Queen Wu at all, because she is not mature at all, not charming, and young.
Therefore, Zhu Jianshen rarely went to Empress Wu's bedroom, except for the days when Wan Zhen'er came to the moon.
Except for the past few days, Ming Xianzong Zhu Qizhen is with Wan Zhen'er every day, and all the queens and concubines are decorations, and he Zhu will not take a look at it. Because they're so young.
This move can make Empress Wu angry. You are a slave and maid, and you actually learn from yourself and praise the country and the people, your identity is just a slave!Dare to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix and disturb the emperor's governance of the government!How unreasonable!
So Queen Wu found a reason for Wan Zhen'er to step into the door first with her right foot when she entered the door to ask for peace, and served Wan Zhen'er with torture.
Wan Zhen'er, who was only beaten, opened her skin and flesh, and since then she has fallen to the root of the disease.
Zhu Jianshen knew that after Wan Zhen'er was beaten, he was angry. Not to mention that your Wu family robbed someone else's queen, you even used lynching.
In a fit of anger, Empress Wu was abolished, and it was not easy for anyone to come now. After all, he Zhu Jianshen's throne is firmly seated. The minister and the Empress Dowager Zhou dissuaded, but it was ineffective.
But because of Wan Zhen'er's identity, she really couldn't honor the world, so she set up another queen and queen.
But Empress Wang's fate is so similar to that of Empress Wu, Zhu Jianshen doesn't even want to set foot in her palace because she is too young.
still goes his own way, and is tired of being with Wan Zhen'er every day.
It's really good to be together every day, Wan Zhen'er finally gave birth to an eldest son for Zhu Jianshen.
This achievement made the two cry with joy, and Zhu Jianshen not only named Wan Zhen'er as a concubine, but also promised to make this child the prince.
It's a pity that because Wan Zhen'er was beaten by Queen Wu, the child was congenitally deficient, and it didn't take long for him to die.
Wan Guifei never had a son and a half born for Zhu Jianshen later. But she finally realized her dream and jumped from a slave to a concubine.
In 1487, Concubine Wan Guifei died, and Zhu Jianshen was discouraged. In July of the same year, Zhu Jianshen followed the woman she loved and died at the age of 41.
