——The Biography of Queen Xiaoduanwen, the Empress of Shu History

The year Yinyue married Shu Han, she was only sixteen years old. That year was the eighth year of Chu Zhengtong. It coincided with the sudden invasion of Western Xinjiang by troops. Shu Han took the opportunity to propose peace with Da Chu. At that time, civil unrest was raging in the northwest, and Zhengtong Fearing that the Shu Han would take the opportunity to send troops to the Northern Expedition, he had no choice but to designate Yinyue, the daughter of the Yanqing County Prince, as "Princess Hejing" and marry Liu Zhang, the prince of the Shu Han Dynasty.

It was a long way from the capital to Chengdu, and the wedding procession had been walking for more than two months. From April to June. On June 20, Prince Liu Zhang personally went to Jianmen Pass, a military center, on the order of the Lord of Shu Han. Go and greet.

The summer weather in June is hot. The further south you go from the capital to Chengdu, the hotter the weather becomes. Sitting in a golden sedan that can only be used by princesses, Yinyue heard a gentle and mellow voice coming from outside the sedan:

"See you, Your Highness! Your Highness, you have had a hard journey." Da Chu is the nominal suzerain of Shu Han. Although Liu Zhang is the crown prince, he still has to salute when he sees her.

This was the first meeting between Yinyue and Liu Zhang. In other words, it was half of their meeting. Because although Yinyue knew who was outside, she adhered to etiquette. The curtains around her sedan were hung low, and she did not Open the sedan curtain and take a look at Liu Zhang's appearance.

Later, the married woman Shi got into the sedan chair and said to her happily: "Prince Liu Zhang is so handsome and elegant. Your Highness is so lucky!"

Yinyue just smiled after hearing this.

The Shu Han and Da Chu are nominally friendly neighbors. In fact, they are eyeing each other, and both want to eliminate the other and achieve the great cause of unifying the world. The Da Chu has a strong country and well-trained soldiers, but the Shu Han is a small and weak country. The strength comparison between the two sides is clear at a glance. .Under this background, she was regarded as a legitimate princess and married to the Shu Han Dynasty. She was undoubtedly regarded as a political victim.

Liu Zhang obviously only married her for political needs, so how could he show true love to an enemy princess like her?

Nothing to look forward to!

The wedding of Yinyue and Liu Zhang took place in the Zhaoyang Hall of the Shuhan Palace. Drums were playing outside the Zhaoyang Hall. Although Shuhan was a small country, the ceremony for the prince's wedding was extremely thorough. Hundreds of officials came to congratulate him in fine clothes, and the food and wine flowed freely. The price was sent in, and the celebration was extremely prosperous and grand.

However, there was absolutely no joy in her heart.

After she finished her worship and was carried into the palace, Liu Zhang used a steel scale to lift off her red brocade hijab. She slowly raised her head and saw for the first time the handsome face of Qingjun. He stood quietly. There, his attitude was elegant and otherworldly, just like a banished immortal coming to the world. The bright red Jifu would always be a bit tacky when worn on others, but on his body, it was worn out of his body to give him a somewhat elegant and elegant look. temperament.

He looked at her so intently, with clear eyes, no scrutiny, no caution, only a touch of warmth. Under such gaze, Yinyue couldn't help but reach out her hand and hold it with him.

I wish I could have the person of my heart and stay together forever! Maybe putting aside the annoying political factors, he might really be her lover!

A glimmer of hope arose in Yinyue's heart!

Many years later, Yinyue once asked him why he looked at her with such heartwarming eyes. Shouldn't she be scrutinized and suspicious of a princess from an enemy country?

He just smiled lightly: "If I said that I fell in love with you at first sight, would you believe it?"

In the days after her marriage, in Chengdu, far away from her motherland, Yinyue worked hard to fulfill her duties as a wife, served the prince wholeheartedly, and took care of everything in Zhaoyang Palace. Liu Zhang also loved her to the core. He especially liked calligraphy and painting.

, she would always accompany him in the study, lighting a stick of honey incense, and while he lowered his head to write, she would grind ink for him at the side!

Sometimes they spend an afternoon in silence without saying a word, but the warm and beautiful atmosphere still makes people feel intoxicated!

The blue gauze is waiting for the moon to sing in the spring, and the red sleeves are fragrant to read at night! Suddenly, Yinyue felt that she had found the lover she had dreamed of.

Winter in the southwest is gradually coming. Due to historical customs, there is no custom of burning fires to burn earth dragons here. Although the winter here is not as cold as in the north, for Yinyue, a person who has lived in the north for sixteen years, the southwest

The damp and cold weather still made her feel very sad.

But she did not tell Liu Zhang this. Her identity was sensitive, and she did not want Liu Zhang to think that she was a troubled woman.

One day, Liu Zhang took her to the back hall of Zhaoyang Palace. Yinyue discovered that this place had been renovated in the style of the Nuan Pavilion in the Forbidden City palace. The layout of the inner room was similar to her boudoir in her hometown.

It was almost exactly the same. There was an earth dragon burning in the house, and it was as warm as spring. Later she found out that Liu Zhang had hired countless craftsmen from the capital and spent nearly a month to do it all before bringing it with him.

She came to see it.

At that moment, Yinyue's heart felt as warm as an earth dragon.

Winter turned to spring, and in March of the following year, Yinyue was diagnosed with Ximai. Liu Zhang was so happy that such an elegant man would say to everyone he met: "I'm going to be a father!"

The side concubine Jia is the granddaughter of the cabinet scholar Jia Ge Lao. She married Liu Zhang as his concubine on the same day as Yinyue. She has always been very jealous of the relationship between Liu Zhang and Yinyue, and often drives a wedge between them behind their backs.

Because of her grandfather's relationship, she actually contradicted Yin Yue, the principal concubine, to her face.

After Liu Zhang found out, he banned her without hesitation, stripped her of her title, and demoted her to a concubine.

Yinyue persuaded him: "Liu Ping, the king of Han, has always coveted your position as crown prince. Jia Ge has always been your biggest helper in the cabinet. Why do you have to offend him for me? Just let Jia out and restore her title!"

I've seen this kind of thing many times in the Dachu Palace, and Jia can't do anything to me!"

He just smiled gently, gently stroked her hair and said, "If I, Liu Zhang, can't even take care of the woman I love, even if I get the throne in the future, how can I sit securely?"

Yin Yue was even more moved. After nine months of pregnancy, Liu Zhang gave birth to a son. Liu Zhang was overjoyed. He said to Yin Yue: "If I succeed as the king of the country in the future, this child will be the future prince!"

In the ninth year of Zhengtong, the leader of the Shu Han Dynasty passed away. Before his death, he issued a posthumous edict and crown prince Liu Zhangling came to the throne as Emperor Xiaowu. Liu Ping, the king of Han Dynasty, was unwilling to fail in seizing the rightful son, so he secretly joined forces with Ouyang Hong, the commander of the imperial army, to launch a palace coup. Tens of thousands of imperial troops moved the palace

Surrounded by people, Liu Zhang deliberately lured the snake out of the cave and set up an ambush outside, intending to wipe out all the Han King's rebellious gang.

Unexpectedly, Ouyang Hong's imperial army sneaked into his bodyguards and secretly shot a cold arrow. At the critical moment, Yinyue stepped forward to protect Liu Zhang's safety with her weak body, but she was poisoned by the arrow and was in danger.

On that day, Yin Yue had just given birth for only five days.

Yinyue was in a coma on the hospital bed for five days without any water. Liu Zhang, who had always been gentle and gentle, became furious and ordered the rebellious Liu Ping and Ouyang Hongling to be executed!

A month later, the imperial doctor finally cured Yin Yue's arrow wound, and Liu Zhang, who had ascended the throne as the king of the country, cried with joy. That was the first time Yin Yue saw this man's tears. At that moment, she felt that this man's tears were more precious than those in the world.

The most precious treasure in the world is even more precious.

The next year, Yinyue was pregnant again. The second child was still a boy. Their first child had been named the prince. Yinyue, the princess who married from a foreign country, was now the queen of Shu Han. The mother was more valuable than the son.

, and completely established a foothold in Shuhan.

Because Yinyue longed for his hometown day and night, Liu Zhang ordered skilled craftsmen to build the Huaibei Temple! Liu Zhang smiled and said to her: "As long as it is what you want, I will try my best to realize your wish!"

Yinyue leaned into his arms and smiled softly.

I don’t want anything, you are enough!

In the following years, the situation in Chu was changing, and the political struggle was extremely fierce. However, under the leadership of Liu Zhang, the Shu Han Dynasty flourished. After the death of the orthodox emperor, King Lu Ye Minzhao unexpectedly won the throne, and King Zhao Ye Minyu was in Guanzhong.

It developed its own power and actually became a separatist force.

That day Liu Zhang returned to the harem and looked at Yin Yue with some difficulty. "Yue'er, tomorrow, I will start the Northern Expedition! Since ancient times, the regime in the southwest has never had a precedent of unifying the world. Emperor Hongxi and the regent

They are not simple characters. The North will only become stronger and stronger after breaking away from the quagmire of war. I cannot leave powerful enemies to our sons. Whether I succeed or fail, I will always give it a try! It’s just that

I'm sorry for you!"

Yinyue held his hand and said: "My motherland abandoned me. It was you who used your strong arms to open up a sky for me again. From the moment I became your wife, I became a subject of Shu Han, no matter what

No matter what decision you make, I will work with you! No matter whether you succeed or fail, I will always be by your side."

On the second day, Liu Zhang led an army of 100,000 people out of Jianmen Pass and formally pledged his allegiance to the Northern Expedition. This war lasted for nine years, from successive victories at the beginning to being stretched and retreating step by step. Liu Zhang was a genius.

However, he met another young hero who was born out of nowhere. When he returned to Chengdu from Hunan and heard the news of the fall of Jianmen Pass in the palace, Liu Zhang called Yinyue and asked her: "Marry me, you

Do you regret it?"

Yinyue shook her head calmly, "The most correct decision for me in this life is to marry Shu Han and become your wife! You have already decided, right?" She knew Liu Zhang's temper and served Da Chu humbly. As the leader of the country, he might

He could last for decades. Although he would inevitably be wiped out sooner or later, he didn't!

It's better to be in pieces than in ruins! He's a bit silly, but it makes Yin Yue admire and respect him even more.

She knew that once Chengdu was captured, Liu Zhang would definitely die for his country!

"You have decided, haven't you? Then let me accompany you!"

Liu Zhang looked at her, with deep pain in his eyes: "You are still so young, and your father and brother both hold high positions in Chu State. As long as you are willing to surrender, they will let you live!"

Her eyes were full of determination: "If you are gone, what's the point of my life! Besides, they won't let our children live!" Her tone was so determined. He knew it early on.

, she is a woman who is soft on the outside but strong on the inside. Whatever she decides to do, no one can change her decision.

Liu Zhang smiled tenderly. Although he had lost his country, it was worth having her by his side in his short life!

He raised his hand, and two maids came in carrying a jar of wine.

"This is the sweet-scented osmanthus wine you brought from your hometown when you got married. For so many years, you have been reluctant to drink it. Today, let us husband and wife have a good drink! No matter life or death, we will always be together!"

Yinyue drank with her passionately, but after only two drinks, she fell asleep on the table. Liu Zhang stretched out his hand and gently stroked her face, his fingertips tracing the perfect lines on her face. The man's

The voice murmured, full of magnetism: "It's enough to have a confidant in life. God has really treated me well! Yue'er, I really fell in love with you at first sight!"

"But I can't let you die like this with me... You have to live for our children!"

He stared at her for a long time before calling in his own bodyguard commander. "While Yang Chengzong's army has not yet surrounded Chengdu, you must quickly protect the queen and my two children and escape from the city and go to Quanzhou to join Ye Yichen. Ye Yichen

Thinking of yourself as a hero

Yes, you will not attack orphans and widowed mothers. Moreover, Princess Zhennan is Yue'er's close friend, and the relationship between the sisters is very deep! The queen's wine was mixed with a hundred days of drunkenness. When she arrived at Zhennan Palace, she saw

Don’t let Princess Zhennan wake up before she wakes up!”

The commander of the bodyguard bid farewell to Liu Zhang with tears and took a small road to escort Yinyue and her two sons to Zhennan Palace for refuge.

In August of the ninth year of Hongxi's reign, Yang Chengzong led an army to attack Chengdu, and Emperor Xiaowu Liu Zhang set himself on fire in Zhaoyang Palace!

A few months later, a small nunnery quietly opened in an inconspicuous place in Quanzhou City. It was elegantly and quietly decorated. It seemed inconspicuous, but in fact there were countless secret sentry guards outside. Yinyue put on the monk's robes and entered the nunnery in this small nunnery.

Chanting sutras and worshiping Buddha in the small Buddhist hall, Liu Zhang left her a suicide note. Yinyue read the letter and finally did not seek death again.

Yulan often came to see her: "Cousin, do you regret it?"
