In the palace of Queen Chuwei, the most tragic person is Xiang's, her tragedy makes people sigh at the same time, but also makes people see the darkness of human nature under the strong and the weak.
Xiang was originally a noble woman of Xiang State, because Xiang Guo was swallowed up by Ju State and became Ju Ji's maid, and later Ju State was swallowed up by Chu State, Ju State Princess Ju Ji was dedicated to King Chu Wei, Xiang naturally became a maid and married into Chu with Ju Ji and became Xiang Mei of King Chu Wei.
She is still a treasure entrusted by her parents in the palm of her hand, when the country is ruined and the family is ruined, and things backfire, but the Xiang family is like a utensil, moving around, becoming the most humble existence in the harem of Chu, she used to be a flamboyant and unrestrained, charming woman, but now because of changes in the environment, she has become a submissive, timid and quiet woman, so as to match her status and survive in this troubled era.
Ju Ji entered the Chu Palace for many years and was infertile, in order to keep the identity of the favorite concubine, and in order to have a backer for the rest of her life, she pushed the very beautiful, graceful and beautiful Xiang Concubine to the bed of King Chu Wei, and Xiang Concubine did not live up to Ju Ji's ardent expectations, and soon became pregnant with a child.
According to the regulations at that time, the children born to Xiang Meiren were the mother of Ju Ji, but Xiang Meiren was the biological mother, and she was born to rely on her life.
No one thought that it was the appearance of this child that brought her an unfortunate fate, and because of this child, she became a thorn in the side of the king of Chu and hated her unless she had it, and this child was the source of the tragedy in the second half of her life.
She was happily waiting for the child to be born, but when the astrologer Tang Yu watched the sky at night, he found that Baxing was born and traveled all over the harem of Chu, and only Xiang was pregnant, so this Baxing naturally became the treasure in her womb.
The overlord will descend, happy or worried.
King Chu Wei is overjoyed, he is suffering for a lifetime, no one inherits the hegemony, and he is sorrowful, and now that the overlord has descended on the Chu State, the Chu State that he hopes for will have a bright future that can be looked forward to, so he pinned all his hopes on the soon-to-be-born child, and immediately issued an edict to let Xiang Meiren move into the pepper room and wait for childbirth.
Xiang Meiren rose from an unknown woman to the focus of the palace, moved from a simple living room to a luxurious pepper room to give birth, and from a small woman with two or three servants to a noble man with a group of servants and a female doctor who followed day and night.
Everyone who has watched "The Legend of Zhen Huan" knows what the pepper room means, it symbolizes identity, status and favorite concubine treatment. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the pepper room is a special existence, that is where only the queen can live, and the pepper room of Chu State only lived when the queen was pregnant with the prince Huai, and there was no honor when she was pregnant with other children, not to mention that other concubines and concubines, no matter how good the family background was, no one entered the pepper room to raise the baby, which shows that Xiang Mei can live in the pepper room to give birth, which explains everything.
When the king of Chu later heard that Xiang Yuren had moved into the pepper room to wait for childbirth, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and a sentence suddenly popped up in his mind: Isn't it okay if the king wants to set up more princes?
If King Chu Wei really replaced the crown prince, then it would be devastating for her, could she be unwilling, she really hated to bite Xiang's family, so she secretly bribed the female doctor to coerce and lure her to find an opportunity to hurt the child in Xiang's belly.
Xiang's treatment has increased sharply, and he is panicked all day long, and he doesn't know what to do.
Ju Ji is different, although she has eaten a little taste, but she is a smart and clever woman, she instantly put aside this negative feeling, and is so happy that she wants to fly, this kid is her backer. If it is really as predicted by Tang Yu, he will be prosperous and rich in this life, he will act immediately, on the one hand, he will let people protect Xiang from hurting, on the other hand, he will patiently comfort Xiang, so that Xiang's mood is stable, and on the other hand, he will be commensurate with Xiang's sisters, which will close the relationship between the two.
Although Xiang is timid and afraid of things, and does not understand the sinister hearts of people, but with the impenetrable protection of Ju Ji, coupled with the importance of King Chu Wei to him, whoever wants to harm her has to weigh it, so Xiang Shi is in ignorance and fearless, and the consequences are surprising, she actually gave birth to a little girl.
In everyone's subconscious, Baxing should be a boy for granted, and now the girl born to the Xiang family is not born to belong to the Baxing, King Chu Wei was disappointed, Queen Chu and Ju Ji were also secretly relieved. Xiang's is not important, Baxing is still an ordinary woman, all her own children, she has no ambitions, she can live in peace, but she doesn't know that it was this child who became the root cause of her tragedy, and she pushed herself step by step into the abyss of life.
Although Ju Ji pinned her hopes on the Xiang family, if this fetus really gave birth to a tyrant, it would be in danger in the future after facing the King of Chu, and she might not know what to do one day. Besides, she basically has no maternal family to rely on, the queen has a strong maternal family, and the queen also has several sons who have been divided into various places, and the strength is not something that Ju Ji can compete with, and Ju Ji only wants to have a support for the rest of her life, live a stable life, and have no ambitions, let her son compete for the world, so she was secretly relieved to see that the Xiang family gave birth to a daughter.
The queen of Chu was relieved, because the Xiang family had a daughter, who was not a person who overlooked the stars, and her son was still the crown prince, and when he was the king of Chu in the future, he would still be the queen, and his status and power were still in his own hands and could not be changed.
The days seem to have returned to the way they used to be, and Xiang has also become the little wife, surrendering to Ju Ji Palace, taking care of her daughter, Ju Ji is still the object of King Chu Wei's favor, the queen is still the queen, everything has not changed, but people's hearts have changed, and King Chu can no longer ignore Xiang as before.
After Xiang gave birth to Miyue, he told the king of Chu that he was not threatened and should be at ease, but Xiang was pregnant, planned all the schemes, and was frightened and fearful.
Reason made her ignore the Xiang family anymore, this is just an insignificant little woman, and it has no impact on the overall situation, if her son can ascend the throne, why be afraid?But from an emotional point of view, it is impossible for her not to hate Xiang, and she needs to find an opportunity to vent the hatred in her heart, so this hatred has always existed in the back chest of King Chu, and it is this hatred that makes Xiang go to the abyss of life in the future until he dies.
In the process of Miyue's growth, its intelligence and unusual understanding gradually revealed, won the favor of King Chuwei, as a boy to cultivate, Miyue since childhood did not look like a girl, on the contrary, he likes boys to climb trees, catch birds, play slingshots, six or seven years old began to be interested in war games, all day with three or four-year-old brother Mi Rong and two small attendants running around the palace, sometimes archery, sometimes rushing on a rockery, as if defeating the female general, cheering.
Once Mi Yue shot down a yellow finch with a slingshot, but the yellow finch fell into the team of the queen of silkworm Chu, a group of maids were frightened and ran wildly, startled, Mi Shu fell to the ground with the silkworm box, and was accidentally stepped on the center of the silkworm baby, crying bitterly.
Queen Chu looked at her own daughter crying and crying, and was annoyed in her heart, and then saw that the culprit was actually Mi Yue, which was really a combination of new hatred and old hatred, which made her seizure, and gave Mi Yue a blow to the head on the spot, and asked someone to give twenty sticks to the hate.
Friends who have watched court dramas know that the rod blames this matter, and there is also a trick, if you have the heart to give a way out, a blow of fifty rods, it is also the pain of flesh and skin, and it does not hurt the muscles and bones, if you have the heart to kill, you don't need twenty rods, ten rods can beat such a six or seven-year-old girl to death.
Now Mi Yue has fallen into the hands of the queen who is full of killing intent, under the twenty rods, how can she live.
When Ju Ji heard the news, he rushed to save Mi Yue and caused the case of Mi Yue to King Chu Wei, who was also confused by hatred afterwards, and still refused to put Mi Yue to death in the face of King Chu Wei.
King Chu Wei has always loved Miyue, how could he let the queen kill Miyue because of such a trivial matter, besides, he is still alive, the queen dares to be so blatantly ** his own children, if he is a hundred years later, what kind of life can his concubine children have, after thinking about it, he decided to show a little color to the queen, and it has to be planned in advance to ensure the safety of those concubines and concubines after he is a hundred years later.
Within a few days, the queen had hurt Yue Meiren's matter turned upside down, King Chu Wei was furious, seized the queen's power, and vaguely harbored the intention of abolishing the queen, which made the queen of Chu angry and frightened, and later had to let Yin Zhaoyang Zhou Xuan keep the queen's position, but the queen also swore that no matter what happened, he would not attack the queen and other heirs.
At that time, people believed in ghosts and gods, and once they swore an oath, they would naturally not disobey their hearts.
Although the queen swore not to harm the children and concubines of King Chuwei, she could not obey this tone, and because of Miyue's incident, she hated Xiang and Miyue even more, even if she couldn't hurt them, she had to embarrass them, and she could always do it.
Soon, King Chu Wei died, the crown prince Huai became the king of Chu, and after the queen became Chu Wei, she became the most noble woman in Chu State, no one can hold her in her hands, she can do whatever she can, she can avenge anyone who wants to take revenge, she can torture anyone she doesn't like, anyway, she can do whatever she wants, that feeling is too good.
At this point, Xiang also knew that he was in a bad situation, and he was cautious in his work, lest he provoke Chu Wei.
It can really be said that there are unforeseen circumstances, how can there be good and bad luck.
Xiang went to Zhanghuatai to accept the cultural relics rewarded by the first king, and met the lustful Chu Wanghuai, Chu Wanghuai completely ignored his personality and his feelings, but let Chu Weihou look at it, and gave her a charge of seducing the king, quietly hid her, and then ascended the throne with the new king, and wanted to release some concubines and palace maids to show gifts, and gave some palace maids to the old army who had been fighting all year round and homeless to show the benevolence of the new king. In this way, Chu Wei quietly got Xiang out and gave an ugly, old gambler Wei Jia as his wife, Wei Jia drank and gambled all day long, drank wine and beat Xiang, and sent Xiang away after losing the gamble, and even gave the child life-saving money to bet, and sent Xiang away if he didn't send it, Xiang was a timid and afraid woman, and since then she has lived a life of not being clothed, hungry, and worried every day.
Xiang lived in the Chu Palace, although his status was humble, but he lived a carefree life, but because he had a tyrant, he became his original sin, and became a weapon to vent his hatred after Chu Wei, trampling on her at will with the help of power, torturing her arbitrarily, treating her as a thing, treating her arbitrarily, and handing her over to Wei Jia and other violent men who are also shameless so that they can live and die together.
When she was in despair, Ju Ji sent an envoy to look for her, she thought that she could see her daughter and son, and her life finally dawned, so she became uneasy, and quietly went to see her daughter according to Ju Ji's appointment, but she didn't expect that there was a catastrophe waiting for her daughter.
Waiting to meet his daughter in a small room in the hunting ground, I didn't expect to wait for him, but waited until Chu Wanghuai, who had a human face and a beast's heart, drank deer blood because of hunting, and later drank wine, triggered his desire, and was waiting for catharsis.
The Xiang clan, who was ravaged by the king of Chu, no longer had the courage and face to survive, and his heart was broken, and he ended his miserable life with a hairpin.
Xiang's she is just a weak woman, she lives very well, she doesn't get in the way, she doesn't hurt anyone's heart, she just wants to live in peace, but she died because of the overlord, in Chu Weihou's mind, she became a sinner, and her pregnancy and trouble also became the original sin.
The Xiang clan is just unfortunate to be guilty of the overlord star.
Chu Weihou vented all her unwillingness and all hatred on her, how unfortunate she was, she became a tool for Chu Weihou to vent her hatred, just because she was fragile and Chu Weihou was strong.
Xiang knows her weakness, she will not fight for anything all her life, she always lives lowly and cautiously, and even depends on Wei Jia in the future, suffering from **, but she has always endured humiliation and never struggled, but her obedience, her gentleness has not changed at all, but she is allowed to be bullied and destroyed by others.
From the tragic situation of the Xiang family, we can see how sad it must have been for the concubines and daughters at that time, their fate could not be controlled by themselves, they were completely manipulated by others, their life or death was only between the thoughts of others, they had no capital to fight, and they did not have the power to be the masters for themselves.
Xiang's misery, but Chu Wei later thought that he was guilty, but in fact, it didn't matter whether he was guilty or not, it was determined by his identity. Thinking about it this way, it is not surprising that the women in the court drama compete for glory, wealth, and power, fight wits and courage, and hurt the people, they have no right or wrong, I just want to live a better life, I just want my fate to be in my hands.
