The Three Kingdoms was an era of heroes, and endless scheming and war were the main themes of that period. There are more heroes who are short of breath, and few children who are long. Against the blood-colored background, there will still be a few pink embellishments, and a few strands of silky hair will be accompanied by sharp knives and guns.
The story of Cao Pi and Zhen Mi is one of the few private affairs between children and daughters.
As the saying goes, "There are two Qiao in the south of the Yangtze River, and Zhen Mi Qiao in Hebei is beautiful", which means that the big Qiao and Xiao Qiao in Jiangdong are as famous as Zhen Mi in Hebei, and they are the most beautiful beauties in the Three Kingdoms period. Jiangdong is Sun Ce's territory, Da Qiao is married to Sun Ce, and Xiao Qiao is married to Zhou Yu. Hebei is Yuan Shao's territory, and Zhen Mi's husband is Yuan Shao's son Yuan Xi.
However, after Yuan Shao's death, several sons fought among themselves, and Cao Cao seized the opportunity to break them one by one. In 204 AD, Cao Cao's army broke through the Jizhou Governor's Office, which was also the base camp of the Yuan clan.
Cao Cao's son Cao Pi entered the Yuan Mansion as the vanguard, and when he saw the beautiful Zhen, he was immediately impressed by her peerless appearance and immediately accepted her as a harem. Zhen was originally the wife of Yuan Shao's son Yuan Xi, but her husband was defeated and she became a prisoner.
As a weak woman, in the Three Kingdoms where the weak eat the strong and the flames are raging, Zhen Mi can only accept it. At the same time, being included in the harem by Cao Piqi can also be regarded as a kind of preservation, which exempts him from the suffering of displacement.
After Cao Pi included Zhen Mi in the concubine room, he was naturally favored in every way at the beginning. Zhen Mi naturally thought that she had found Ruyi Langjun, and Cao Pi was both civil and military, which was satisfying.
The relationship between the two is getting better and better, and they are in harmony every day. Soon, Zhen Mi gave birth to her son, the future Emperor Cao Rong of Wei Ming, and her daughter Princess Dongxiang. But Zhen Mi is not pampered and arrogant, but reasonable, gentle and virtuous.
Zhen Mi has persuaded Cao Pi to take concubines many times to prosper his heirs. Not only that, but she will also work hard to improve the exhortation of the favored in Cao Pi's concubine's room, and comfort and enlighten the unfavored. It can be said that she is a generous and sensible woman. She is also extremely filial to Cao Pi's mother, Mrs. Bian, and Mrs. Bian is also very fond of this beautiful daughter-in-law.
It seems that this is a perfect love story, the protagonist of the story, despite the fate of the early stage and the suffering of war and displacement, finally found his own happiness, and the prince and princess lived happily together.
However, birth, old age, sickness and death are normal human feelings. This is the law of nature, as Zhen Mi grows older, her appearance is no longer as beautiful as when she was young.
The ancients said that "color decays and love relaxation". Cao Pi began to like the new and dislike the old, and gradually began to snub Zhen.
In 220 AD, Cao Pi ascended the throne, and soon forced Emperor Chan of the Han Dynasty to give up the throne and became the new emperor. Cao Pi immediately had a new woman, Shanyang Gong Liu Xie married his two daughters to Cao Pi, as well as the famous Guo Guifei Queen Guo, Li and Yin, two nobles, Cao Pi's mind was completely transferred to them who were younger and more beautiful, and Zhen Mi was more and more neglected.
In the face of this kind of snubbing and disparity, Zhen Mi will inevitably have some complaints, and in this mood, she wrote "Tang Shangxing".
Pusheng I am in the pool, and its leaves are separated. If you can do benevolence and righteousness, you don't know if you are a concubine. The crowd is full of voices, so that Jun Sheng is separated. When Nian Jun went to me, he was sad and sad. I want to see the color of you, and I feel sad and sad. Nian Jun is often bitter and sad, and he can't sleep at night. Don't be heroic and give up what you love? Don't be cheap with fish and meat, and give up donating onions and shallots? Don't be cheap with hemp, abandon donations and kuai? There is no pain when you go out, and there is no worry when you go in. There is a lot of sad wind on the borderland, and the trees are beautiful! From the gentleman to the solitary pleasure, prolong the life of a thousand years.
expressed his strong love and attachment to Cao Pi, and the sorrow in his heart when he was neglected and disliked by Cao Pi, and the resentment of being abandoned. Once you don't love anymore, your former lover will become the most cruel passerby. However, when Cao Pi learned of this, Long Yan was furious and issued an order in 221 AD to give Zhen to death.
Later, Cao Pi had nightmares, he asked the great warcist Zhou Xuan to interpret the dream, and after Zhou Xuan calculated a hexagram, he replied to Cao Pi and said: "There are noble women in the world who died unjustly." ”
Cao Pi regretted a little and wanted to recover the messenger who gave Zhen Mi to death, but it was too late. Later, Zhen Mi was buried back in Yecheng, where he and Cao Pi first met. It is rumored that during Zhen Mi's funeral, Cao Pi ordered her to cover her face with her hair and stuff her mouth with chaff.
The purpose of draping her hair and covering her face is to make Zhen Mi unable to see people as she is; plugging her mouth with chaff makes her unjust. Cao Pi's coolness is the same. Of course, later Zhen Mi's son Cao Rong became the emperor, posthumously crowned Zhen as Empress Wenzhao Zhen, and built a dormitory, which can be regarded as a little compensation for Zhen Mi who died unjustly.
