In ancient China, the status of women was extremely low, and most things were not decided by themselves. Obeying the father at home, marrying and obeying the husband, and obeying the son in death is simply a puppet who obeys the instructions of others, and there is no freedom. In some film and television dramas, we can often see some situations where a high-ranking and powerful person marries his daughter as an insider, but in this way, the woman becomes an innocent victim. Let me ask you, if you are this woman, should you listen to your father or her husband?
In the Western Zhou Dynasty, Zheng Guo had a powerful minister named Sai Zhong, who could be described as a master of high merit and power. After the death of the old king Zheng Zhuanggong, the new emperor was ordered by him personally. In other words, he can help whoever he wants to take the throne, and he is not polite at all, supporting Zheng Zhaogong as the king and being the behind-the-scenes manipulator himself. Xu is the death of the old king is inseparable from him, so the Song Kingdom, who had a marriage with the old king, was furious. Song Guo was dissatisfied with his approach, because the first princess of Song Guo gave birth to a son for the old king, and Song Guo's intention was naturally to establish this child as the king, and he intervened sideways and ruined the good things of Song Guo. For the sake of Zheng Guo's country, Song Guo had to get rid of him as a confidant, so he tricked him into his own country and forced him to sign a contract to let the emperor abdicate and let the child become the new king, that is, Zheng Ligong.
In fact, whoever is the emperor is the same in his eyes, after returning to Zheng State, he is still a powerful minister above 10,000 people under one person, and what about the grandson of Song State, he is still a puppet in his hands. However, Zheng Ligong has ambitions, he doesn't want to be anyone's puppet, he just wants to develop the country well. So he found the son-in-law of the priest, who was also a loyal minister, and asked him to kill his father-in-law. The son-in-law of the priest hesitated for a long time, but still chose to be loyal to the emperor, but the plan was discovered by his wife Yongji. The wife was very surprised when she heard it, on the one hand, she was the father of birth and raising, and she was as kind as a mountain, and on the other hand, she was her husband, her own sky, how to cut it off?
After thinking to no avail, she turned to her mother and asked her whether she thought her father would kiss her more or her husband. Mother said a sentence leisurely, and it became a famous sentence for thousands of years. She said: There will be many people in the world who love themselves, but there is only one father, and there is only one father's love. After listening, it dawned on her that she understood what she should do. So she told her mother what she knew, and this time she was on her father's side, and her mother's words were also passed down through the ages.
