The first kind of palace fight: only fight without killing.
( 1)
During the reign of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Feng Qing, two daughters of Feng, a university student, entered the palace successively. Feng Run, who was the first to enter the palace, was sent home for illness because of a cough, so Feng Qing, the younger sister who later entered the palace, was named the queen first. However, Feng Run is not a fuel-efficient lamp. After recovering from illness, she entered the palace again, and immediately got the special favor of Emperor Hong, failing to become the concubine of the Empress Dowager. She finally succeeded in getting Justin to demote Feng Qing to Eta Temple in Ursa major and become a nun, replacing Feng Qing as her own queen.

Yang Yan, the first empress of the Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty, was always jealous of Hu Fang, a favored son of heaven, so before she died, she had to put her little cousin Yang Zhi on the throne of the new queen (Yang Zhi was younger than her nominal daughter-in-law Jia Nanfeng) to prevent Hu Fang from becoming the new queen. Emperor Wu of Jin looked at his wife's last wish and agreed with tears.
(3)
After Ming Yingzong's return, the contradiction between the disabled childless Qian Queen and Zhou Guifei, who has a prince, immediately became acute. Even Ming Yingzong's mother, Empress Sun, agreed to waste money to start a week. Ming Yingzong, mindful of his deep affection for his first wife, resolutely refused. As soon as Queen Sun died, Ming Yingzong and his wife announced that they would reset their first mother. The British couple overturned the judgment after the abolition of the previous dynasty in order to beat Zhou Guifei and those ministers who wanted to speculate. You can't abolish the money queen in the name of childlessness.

One day, Emperor Chongzhen summoned Tian Guifei. The practice is that the imperial concubine carries the phoenix and the little eunuch carries it. On this day, Tian Guifei was carried out by the maids. Emperor Chongzhen looked at it and felt very strange. He asked why, and replied, "The little eunuch behaved badly." Emperor Chongzhen asked her to give an example. Tian Guifei said, "I heard that the little eunuchs in Kunning Palace often do wrong to the ladies-in-waiting, so stay away from them." After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen thought that Tian Guifei knew etiquette very well, and ordered to search the residence of the little eunuch in Kunning Palace in order to obtain the fittings between the eunuch and the maid-in-waiting. Emperor Chongzhen was furious and announced the dismissal of all eunuchs in Kunning Palace. Queen Zhou was bleeding with anger.
(5)
Zhang Guifei, from Song Renzong, was very unhappy when she saw that Fan Guanyin, the adopted daughter of Queen Cao, was favored. She was worried that this would strengthen the power of the Queen. This year happened to be a drought, and Renzong and all the people in the palace urgently asked for rain. Contact Jia Changchao, the prime minister attached to them, through the foster mother Jia Gongren, and ask Jia Changchao to invite Gongren to come to the disaster relief. In the palace, Zhang Guifei suggested that a maid-in-waiting (that is, adopted daughter) who is closely related to concubines should be needed to move the rain to the world (unless she is closely related to her, it is impossible to feel God's will). She also confessed her goddaughter first, and many concubines followed suit. Empress Cao also had to let Fan Guanyin out of the palace.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once loved Xing Di 'e and Yin Shi at the same time, and both of them were named wives. From the beginning, they were not allowed to meet each other to avoid jealousy and jealousy. Mrs. Yin still couldn't help asking to see Mrs. Xing again and again. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also set up his wife to pretend to be Mrs. Xing, and brought dozens of ladies-in-waiting to show off. But judging from the image temperament of the fake Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Yin is still fake. When she saw the real Mrs. Xing, she felt ashamed and began to cry.
(7)
Cao Cao's original match was Lady Ding, and Cao Zhi's biological mother, Bian Shi, was just a concubine who advocated family background. Mrs. Ding is the first wife. Although she has no parents, she adopted the late Mrs. Liu Cao Ang since she was a child, so she was not very polite to her. The original historical data is "Shi Ding's mother and son are insufficient. Back room, don't think about old evils. Just the words "deficiency" and "old evil" can remind people of the meanness between Cao Fu's office and ordinary people.

When Zhu Changluo was a prince in the Ming Dynasty, he had many concubines. Crown Princess Guo died young, and the favorite woman was Li (Xili). After Ming Xizong ascended the throne, it is said that his biological mother Wang Cairen (Taifei II, actually ranked first after Guo's death) was bullied and beaten to death by Xili. But a few years later, influenced by Wei Zhongxian, Ming Xizong confessed that it was instigated by Minister Wang An and others. It's really unreliable that the hostess n dares to kill the hostess 1, but judging from lixi's overbearing character and moral character, she definitely bullied Wang Cairen.

Zhu Zhanji has had wives and concubines since the emperor's father, a virtuous Hu Shanxiang and a beautiful Sun Shi. After Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty ascended the throne, Hu was the queen and the imperial concubine. Zhu Zhanji liked Sun Shi better, so he tried many times to abolish Hu Shanxiang and let Sun Shi succeed to the throne. In this process, the ministers of the DPRK and China have made statements one after another. Sun Guifei gave birth to Prince Zhu Qizhen at this time. In Ming History, it is recorded that Sun Shi stole the dragon and turned it into a phoenix (taking the imperial concubine as his own son), but there are some doubts. Zhu Zhanji ordered Hu Huanghou to resign as queen, was abolished as a Taoist, and lived in Chang 'an Palace (later renamed Ren Jing Palace). Sun Guifei succeeded to the throne as queen. Zhang Taihou still likes his ex-daughter-in-law, and often calls her to his palace. At the palace banquet, he ordered Hu to be above the level and give him a face. Sun Shi is very unhappy.

Yang Guifei was jealous of a concubine in the harem (which did not exist in the history of Mei Fei), so she took advantage of Tang Xuanzong's love for her and spoke ill of the old emperor directly. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was angry, too, and sent Yang Yuhuan directly out of the palace to his cousin Yang Jian's house (the princess was jealous and arrogant, and her life was the first shovel for her brothers). However, Tang Xuanzong, who lost his beloved princess, was in a bad mood all day, so Gao Lishi intervened and the emperor took Yang Guifei back to the palace at night. After the small storm, the relationship between the old couple with fewer wives and more people became better, and the concubines targeted by the harem such as Yang Guifei were even more rarely seen by Tang Xuanzong (naturally, the longer the luck, the more harem).
( 1 1)
In his later years, Sima Yi doted on Princess Bai and alienated his wife Zhang Chunhua. Zhang Chunhua seldom saw Sima Yi. One day, Sima Yi was ill, and Zhang Chunhua went to visit her. Sima Yi actually said to her: "Old things look disgusting, so why bother you to come out!" Zhang Chunhua went on a hunger strike angrily, and so did her Sima Shi, Si Mazhao and Sima Qian. Sima Yi was frightened and apologized to her. Afterwards, Sima Yi secretly said to others: "There is nothing to be ashamed of when the old things are dead. I am worried about my good sons! " Mrs. Bai has only one son, Sima Lun, who was the Prince of Zhao in the Eight Kings Rebellion. His talent is average and his moral character is low. In the power struggle, all four sons were given death, and Sima Yi and Mrs. Bai completely broke off relations. Except for her son, Mrs. Parker lost completely.
The second kind of palace fight: direct bloody slaughter
This situation is often that the emperor is dead, or the emperor is too weak to be subject to the empresses, or the empresses are too favored and the emperor turns a blind eye.
( 1)
Yan Empress of Emperor Han 'an is beautiful as a flower, proficient in melody and brilliant, and is favored by the emperor's special room. But the emperor still preferred other concubines, so the maid-in-waiting Li Sheng gave birth to Prince Liu Bao, and Yan secretly killed Li. Afterwards, she had no children, so she made a plan to abolish Crown Prince Liu Bao. However, after Andi's death, after fierce struggle, Liu Bao succeeded to the throne and destroyed Yan State. Yan died the following year after being placed under house arrest.
(2)
When he was first in office, Emperor Xiaowen also had a concubine Gao, who gave birth to two sons and a daughter before he was thirty, but Gao suddenly died on his way back to Los Angeles. It is said that the killer sent killed Gao to seize custody of Yuan Ke, Gao's son (or after Yun Zhaoyi sent a thief). But before Yuan Ke ascended the throne, Feng Run had been executed by Emperor Xiaowen, and the truth of this murder case is unknown.
(3)
Zhou Xiao in the Southern Tang Dynasty is very evil. She killed many concubines in Li Yu's harem (so she also killed many beautiful women). Except that Huang gave up self-protection, being raped later seemed to be his own retribution.
(4)
Dou Miao, the queen of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, fell out of favor for many years, and favored Tian Sheng, an aristocrat (the queen mother has been jealous and patient, and has long resented Tian Sheng. After the death of Emperor Huan of Han Dynasty, the uterus was not carried away in the front hall, so he couldn't wait to kill Tian Sheng. I also want to kill the other eight noble people, but fortunately my entourage advised them to save their lives.
(5)
Mrs. Liu, the wife of Yuan Shao, is even more cruel. She not only killed five concubines before Yuan Shao died, but also destroyed their bodies. Her son Yuan Shang also helped her kill the concubines' family.
(6)
Emperor He of the Han Dynasty is only the daughter of a butcher's family, but she is so overbearing that all the concubines in the harem are afraid of her. Wang Meiren, born Miss Butler, is no match for her. After giving birth to his son Liu Xie (Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty), he was poisoned by Queen He. Because He had a good relationship with eunuchs, Emperor Ling wanted to abolish He, but he stopped him. However, a few years later, Dong Zhuo avenged Liu Xie and poisoned He and his mother.
(7)
Queen mother Guo didn't expect that all her children and grandchildren became emperors, but they all died. The throne fell to Li's son Zheng, who used to be his maid-in-waiting, and her unlucky day came. Tang Xuanzong, an asshole, retaliated against his mother because of his old hatred and didn't respect his first mother. Guo was so angry that he was ready to jump off a building, but he didn't succeed. Unhappy Xuanzong immediately let his mother "suddenly collapse" that night, and Xuanzong refused to let her build an ancestral temple. In this process, Empress Zheng is bound to add fuel to the flames and get revenge.
Queen mother Guo was suspected of murder, so she avenged her father. It seems that this palace fight is more complicated.
(8)
Apart from fighting with the queen and poisoning the Helan family, Wu Zetian can also infer Wu's attitude towards other harems from the history books. It is recorded in Old Tang Book that "Liu Shengyan, Zheng Shengyuan and Yang Shengze in the harem" have always been regarded as three nobody by writers and novelists. But in fact, according to Li Yuan's harem, which has the most complete information about concubines, Zhang Baolin and Liu Baolin (Liupin) were born with the least number of sons and mothers. Reasonably speaking, the woman favored by the emperor also gave birth to a son. Even for ladies-in-waiting, it is not difficult for the emperor to reward the lowest eight-product crown (* * * has 27 establishments). So Liu Zheng Yang must have a title.
In addition to Liu's humble origins (loyal mother Liu's humble origins), Zheng and Yang have no such records. It was because the share of the four concubines was full that I wanted to give Wu a new title (the imperial concubine, the imperial concubine, the virtuous concubine and the virtuous concubine in the harem were all considered as one product). Want to stand, with tachileik). Yang still dares to offend Wu Zetian (Li's "Wuhou is sick of his mother" in the Book of the New Tang Dynasty), so it can be inferred that Zheng and Yang are probably the second concubines outside. Judging from their surnames, Zheng and Yang are most likely from the famous families Xingyang Zheng and Hongnongyang.
Wu Zetian's execution of illegitimate children was quite ruthless. Except for Li Jiao, who died prematurely because she had no children, Jong Li was forced to commit suicide, leaving no descendants. After Li was forced to commit suicide, six of his seven sons died in exile. Li, who was born in Shanghai, was hanged and nine of his thirteen sons were killed. My son and grandson are still so miserable. These three mothers, especially Yang, who was hated by Wu Hou, probably died of persecution by Wu Zetian. In fact, they died in exile, or they got special gifts. History can't stand close reading. Liu did not record the title, which may also be the reason why Wu Zetian abolished it.
(9)
Li Longji has a second brother, Li Chengyi, who was disgusted by his grandmother Wu Zetian when he was born, and was ready to kill this little life. Wan Hui, a monk, persuaded Wu Zetian superstitious: "This child is a reincarnation of a tree in the Western Region, and raising him can make other grandchildren prosper (this child is the essence of a tree in the Western Region, and it is also appropriate to raise a brother)." Wu Zetian was very happy, so she raised Li Chengyi and other sons of Li Dan together. Although her biological mother Liu is an imperial concubine of the court, it is still puzzling that Wu Zetian wants to execute her grandson.
It was not until I found the epitaph of Liu Jiatai, the grandson of former Prime Minister Liu Shi, which read, "The first emperor was in San Francisco, and his male and female brothers were concubines, so I was recruited as Wang Shu, and my consorts took care of Brown." I didn't know that Ren was Liu Shi's granddaughter and the queen's cousin, and I finally knew why Wu Zetian was so disgusted with Li Chengyi's birth. Liu Gongren's title is not recorded, nor is it recorded in his later years. Combined with Wu Zetian's cruel treatment of political opponents and their families, and the historical records that Wu Zetian killed three daughter-in-law: Li's princess Zhao and Li Dan's wife Liu, it can be inferred that she may have been executed by Wu Zetian just after giving birth.
( 10)
The palace fight during Jiajing period was quite special, because Jiajing himself was a violent and ill-fated monarch, who treated his concubines very harshly, and most of them died by his own hands. The first queen, Chen, was once with Emperor Jiajing. Zhang Shunfei and Wen poured tea for the queen, and Emperor Jiajing stared at the hands of the concubines. Queen Chen was jealous, so she threw down her cup and stood up unhappily. Emperor Jiajing was furious at once, and scared Queen Chen to abortion (North Korea's Record of the Li Dynasty recorded that Queen Chen was punished at that time). Queen Chen was seriously ill for several months after abortion and died in pain.
Empress Jiang, the mother of Emperor Jiajing, urged Emperor Jiajing to appoint Zhang Shunfei as his successor, but Zhang's empress career lasted only five years and was abolished by Emperor Jiajing. There is a saying that Queen Zhang interceded for Zhang Taihou, the aunt of Emperor Jiajing, and angered Emperor Jiajing. The abolished Zhang family died two years later. Another protagonist, Princess Wen, was suddenly punished, went to prison for sin (the last princess abdicated for sin), and died of anxiety a few years later. In fact, funeral ceremonies are only for mourning (all funeral ceremonies are from the killing ceremony).
After Emperor Jiajing, Fang Dejin was made the third queen, but after the change of Renyin Palace, Fang was hated by Emperor Jiajing for unfairly killing Cao, who was favored by Emperor Jiajing. Five years later, there was a fire in the palace, and Emperor Jiajing forbade anyone to save Queen Fang, who was burned to death in the fire (after the official asked for help, the emperor refused and then collapsed). After the death of Fang Empress, Emperor Jiajing remembered that Fang Empress had saved her life in the change of Renyin Palace and regretted it. He ordered the queen to be buried with the etiquette after the Yuan Dynasty (the queen was more dangerous than saving me and difficult to rescue, so she was buried with the etiquette after the Yuan Dynasty). However, the Queen Fang seems to have a bad relationship with Du, and the son of Du, after the emperor ascended the throne, directly disobeyed his father's will and only made the first mother, Queen Chen, the ancestral temple.
The reason why Princess Wen was punished mentioned earlier is not recorded in the history books. In the article Scanning the Empresses of Emperor Shizong of Ming Dynasty written by Liu Yuhe Yao Min of Heilongjiang University, fifty-one of the seventy-six concubines of Emperor Jiajing died before him (Emperor Jiajing lived for sixty years), which is very abnormal. It seems that there are many secret things in the harem of the tyrant Emperor Jiajing, which are unknown to future generations.
The third kind of palace fighting: all-out fighting.
There are many ways to do this: paying lip service, colluding with the foreign minister, using witchcraft, killing people with knives, and unjust imprisonment.
( 1)
The estimated age is younger than that of Hehe, but such a young woman can be confused and controlled, let her three sons escape, and make the whole situation of Jin unstable.
(2)
Chen Ajiao regarded Wei Zifu as a thorn in his side and nearly killed Webster several times. Mother Guantao princess royal also sent someone to arrest Wei Zifu's younger brother Wei Qing, trying to kill him (saved by Gongsun Ao). Chen Ajiao also found a witch named Chu Fu to curse Wei Shi. If Wei Zifu didn't win the favor of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and was firmly protected by him, the little slave girl would really die.
(3)
Empress Dou of Emperor Zhang of Han Zhao was very popular (she was lucky to join the harem later), but she could not have a son. At that time, there were two pairs of sisters in the harem: Song Guiren and Liang Guiren, and Song Guiren and Liang Xiaogui all had sons. The jealous Queen Dou took advantage of Zhang Di's trust in her and framed four people many times.
Chu Jun Liu Yuxin's mother was an aristocrat in the Song Dynasty, so Empress Dou started with the Song family, let her younger brother monitor the father of the Song Dynasty aristocrat, and let the maid-in-waiting monitor the sisters of the Song Dynasty aristocrat. Once, a nobleman in the Song Dynasty fell ill and wrote home to seek treatment from Tu (a parasitic weed). Queen Dou intercepted this letter and framed Song Guiren as a trick, thus alienating Song Guiren's mother and son. Later, Liu Qing was deposed as the King of Qinghe, and the noble sisters in the Song Dynasty were tortured by Cai Lun (then just Xiaohuangmen) sent by Queen Dou, who forced them to commit suicide by taking poison. Liu was born into a noble family and was made the new prince at the age of four. Liang Xiao aristocrats knew that they couldn't beat Queen Dou, so they offered to let Queen Dou raise Liu Zhao. However, Liang's private complaint was heard by Queen Dou, who sent an anonymous letter falsely accusing Liang's sister's father of rebellion. Liang was tortured to death by Hanyang prefect in prison, and his two sisters died of depression.
Liu Zhao acceded to the throne as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at the age of ten, and at the age of thirteen, he killed the Dou Shi clan in the uprising, but Dou Taihou, who raised himself, was never dealt with. Five years later, Dou Taihou died, and jinliang, another sister of Liang Guiren, wrote a letter stating Liang's grievances. However, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty resisted the pressure of ministers and did not abolish his mother and let her be buried with Zhang Han. Because Han and the emperor himself died young, his son, 100 days later, died after he succeeded to the throne. The abandoned son of Qing succeeded to the throne as Emperor Han An, and Emperor Gaozu avenged his grandmother, the noble Dasong, and wanted to avenge the injustice of that year. Cai Lun, who has become an official, was forced to commit suicide by taking poison.
(4)
During the period of Chu Huaiwang, Wang Wei was sent to the harem of Chu as a stunning beauty. Zheng Xiu, an old lover, is not jealous, and she is also very kind to Wei Ji. After Wei Ji trusted her like a sister, Zheng Xiu began to frame her. She told Wei Ji that the king of Chu didn't like her nose, so Wei Ji had to cover his nose when he saw the king of Chu. Chu Huaiwang asked Zheng Xiu puzzled, and Zheng Xiu replied, "She doesn't respect the king." In a rage, Chu Huaiwang ordered Wei Ji's nose to be cut off.
(5)
Yuan Shu got a great beauty Feng, and all the women in Yuan Shu harem "persuaded" Feng together, saying that Yuan Shu appreciated people with integrity and advised Feng to cry more about the ruin of his country in order to get Yuan Shu's appreciation. Later, Feng was strangled by many women and hung in the toilet. Yuan Shu has no doubt that Zhen Feng committed suicide because of national subjugation.
(6)
The death of Wu Shun, a Korean wife, is not recorded in the history books, although Wu Zetian is highly suspected.
But the history books clearly recorded how Wu Zetian killed three birds with one stone, not only poisoned Helan, the wife of Wei, but also framed Wu Weiliang and Wu Huaiyun as poisoners and killed them together (after poisoning Wei, only the good people were blamed and killed them all).
(7)
Huo Xianshou, Huo's mother, bought a female doctor and poisoned Xu Pingjun, the first wife of Emperor Han Zhaodi, in the delivery room. It was so hidden that after several years, Huo Shan, Huo Yun and Huo Yu were still at a loss, wondering why the emperor didn't trust Huo Jia and why there were rumors that Huo Jia wanted to poison Queen Xu.
(8)
After the change of Renyin Palace, Emperor Jiajing was seriously injured and comatose by more than a dozen maids, such as Yang, and was unable to manage state affairs. Wang Ningjin, who was involved in this matter, trapped Cao, who had been at odds with him, as an accomplice, which was exactly what Queen China wanted, because she was also jealous of Cao's favor. Queen Fang decided to sentence Cao, Wang and the maids to death.

In Zhu Gaochi, Emperor Renzong of Ming Dynasty had a beloved princess, Guo Guifei, who was the granddaughter of Guo Ying, the founding hero, and served Zhu Gaochi in the Prince's Mansion. Guo Guifei gave birth to three sons for Injong, but after Injong's death, Queen Zhang, who became the queen mother, chose Guo Guifei as a martyr for five people. However, Guo Guifei should not be chosen because of emotion and reason. The other four empresses were either from humble origins or childless. Among them, Huang Chongfei, a peasant girl from Xiuning, Anhui Province, volunteered to die for Zhang Taihou for the sake of family glory. In other Books of the Later Han Dynasty, Zhang, who had no children, survived because she was Xunjiu's daughter (her grandfather was Zhang Yu, and when she was a prince, she was a general). Zhao Huifei, who gave birth to the emperor's second daughter, and Li Xianfei and Zhang Shunfei, who gave birth to sons, did not appear on the list of martyrs. Guo Guifei was obviously superior to Zhang and others in family background and fertility, but she was buried, which made people suspect that Zhang Taihou, who was in power at this time, was taking personal revenge.
( 10)
The queen of Emperor Han Yuan is Wang, and two favorite concubines are Zhao Shi and Zhao Yuan. However, in a collective animal watching activity in the harem, the bear in the circle actually climbed out. Feng Yuan turned his back on the bear for the sake of the emperor, while Fu died prematurely. Feng Yuan won double respect for this, and the ashamed Fourier hated Feng's guts. Thirty-one years later, Fu became the Empress Dowager because of his eldest grandson's succession. She thinks highly of herself. After losing her son, she called Wang an old woman, but the Queen Mother Fu couldn't help it. Feng Yuan was killed by Empress Fu and falsely accused of witchcraft. The Feng family was tortured to death by dozens of people. Even though Feng Yuan committed suicide, Feng's family was exiled, with a tragic ending.
( 1 1)
Sun Quan's favorite concubine, Mrs. Pan, is a very insidious and jealous woman. She not only maliciously framed Mrs. Yuan and other ladies-in-waiting, but also abused the maids around her and complained bitterly. Mrs. Bu didn't become a queen because the ministers disagreed, and Mrs. Xu didn't consider it because she was not popular enough with Sun Quan. Mrs. Yuan refused to be queen because she had no children, and then Mrs. Pan got the position of queen. When Sun Quan was seriously ill, Mrs Pan exposed her ambition to be a Lv Hou. The ladies-in-waiting were afraid that her queen mother's dictatorship would be even more cruel, so they simply killed her together. It is conceivable that if Pan Shi really became the Queen Mother, Mrs. Yuan and other concubines favored by Sun Quan in those days would end up with concubines favored by Mrs. Qi Tiancheng and Yuan Shao.
( 12)
Zheng Guifei was the favorite concubine of Emperor Wanli, followed by Li Jingfei (after Li Jingfei's death, Emperor Wanli not only made her the imperial concubine, but also directly asked her to be buried on the right side of his underground palace, ranking second only to the queen, but failed to do so because of the opposition of ministers). Therefore, in Zheng Guifei's eyes, neither the unloved queen nor Wang Gongfei is a threat, but Li Jingfei, who gave birth to two sons, is a threat. When he gave birth to his second son Zhu, Zhang Ming, a eunuch, came forward to treat him because of dystocia. As a result, Li Jingfei died 1 1 day after delivery. At that time, it was said that Zhang Ming was ordered to be poisoned (at that time, the words were like a swallow). Twenty-three years later, Ming Guangzong Zhu Changluo died in the "Red Pill Case", and Zheng Guifei's eunuch Cui Wensheng also appeared. What is more doubtful is that Li Jingfei's death was not simple.
The fourth kind of court struggle: the extension of political struggle
Many times, Gong Dou is not just a simple struggle between women for pets, but a political struggle.
The people involved are not just concubines themselves. Eunuchs, foreign ministers, princess royal, and the emperor's wet nurse may all be the protagonists of the palace fight.
Some palace fights are special. They are not fights between queens at all, but fights between queens and third-party forces. For example, the concubines in Emperor Mingxi's harem were persecuted by Wei Zhongxian and Hakkas.
( 1)
Zheng Xiaoshi, a scholar in Taiwan Province Province, holds that the princess without surname before Wendi ascended the throne was actually Lu's daughter. Because Liu Heng, his brothers, nephews and uncles all have to marry a Lushi daughter (or a Lushi niece) in Lv Hou, it is almost impossible for Liu Heng not to be accused of marrying a Lushi daughter (or possibly a Lushi niece). The princess, as a legal Tang Huo, gave birth to four more sons, but even a surname history book was not included, which further confirmed this speculation. If Dai had not died of illness, she would have committed suicide when she learned that Chang 'an had killed the Lushi family. Her four sons were driven out of their homes by Chen Ping and others.

In the period, Guo, the founding queen, competed with Yang, the official secretary. On one occasion, Shang told the fault of Queen Guo. At that time, when Queen Guo arrived, the two men argued. Empress Guo was so angry that she raised her hand and slapped the Shang family and two slaps, and hurried forward to save the Shang family. Queen Guo couldn't hold back and hit her right on the neck. Song Renzong was furious and wanted to abolish Queen Guo. Later, under the impetus of the prime minister (offended by Queen Guo) and eunuch Yan, the Guo family was abolished.
(3)
When Gao Wei was in the Northern Qi Dynasty, Zhao Huanghua colluded with Lu, the wet nurse of Gao Wei. One is to curse with witchcraft, so that you are fascinated and gradually fall out of favor (from the tenth day to the first day, Hu Shensi is in a trance and laughing). Then he framed Hu Huanghou in front of Hu Taihou, saying that Hu Huanghou criticized Hu Taihou's private life and made Hu Taihou get rid of Hu Huanghou in a rage (immediately shaved his hair and returned it to his family). Finally, Mu Zhao Yi successfully rose to the position of queen.
(4)
Song, the first queen of Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty, was envied by the harem of Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty because she was a queen without any favor. Framed and slandered Queen Song together. Wang Fu, a frequent servant, killed Liu Jian, the king of Bohai Sea, and his concubine, the aunt of the Song Dynasty and the Queen of Song Dynasty. Wang Fu was afraid that the Queen Song would resent him, so he made up a lie with Dr. A Cheng, the doctor of Tai Zhong, to frame the Queen Song, saying that the Queen Song cursed others with witchcraft. Emperor Ling of Han believed it, abolished the Queen of Song, and Song died of depression in the cold palace. Her father Song Yong and her brother were both implicated, imprisoned and killed.
(5)
Han Jingdi's eldest son offended Princess Guantao because of his marriage, so Princess Guantao joined hands with his biological mother, Mrs. Wang, to frame him together, which not only made him lose his soon-to-be queen's throne, but also his son's crown. Li Ji eventually died of depression (the more Li Ji hated it, the less she could see it, so she died of anxiety).
(6)
Sun Luban, the eldest daughter of Sun Quan, born to Mrs. Bu, is also a very vicious figure. She didn't like her father's other wife, Mrs. Wang (the mother of Prince Sun He), so she framed the two mothers and children one after another, saying that Sun He and the Crown Princess planned it, saying that Mrs. Wang was happy to see Sun Quan seriously ill (and that Mrs. Wang was happy to see her sick in bed). Sun Quan misunderstood the two men, abolished the position of Sun and Prince, and Mrs. Wang died of depression.
(7)
The Qing emperor Nuerhachi had two handmaids, De Yinze and Ajigen, who suddenly exposed Abahai (the mother of Dourgen) and Nuerhachi's second son Daishan, and they were promoted from handmaids to Xiaofujin. Both Abahai and Daishan were hit by the scandal, but Abahai was quite popular after all and was soon forgiven by Nurhachi. But a few years later, Nurhachi died, Abahai was forced to be buried, and Deinze and Azigen were also buried together. The humble maid dared to report Dafu and the prince, and then was forced to be buried, which made people feel that this was a political conspiracy. The initiator should be Huang taiji, who has the greatest benefit.

During the reign of Emperor Xizong of the Ming Dynasty, although Queen Zhang Yufei and other ladies were persecuted by Hakkas in Wei Zhongxian, flying to Ren Rong was very safe. Because she is Wei Zhongxian's nephew and granddaughter (adopted daughter). Huang Zhang's eldest son, Zhu Ciran, was stillborn because of being assassinated by Hakkas (accidentally hurting Zi Yuan). Zhu Citang, the second son of Fan Huifei, died mysteriously shortly after his birth. Only the third son of Emperor Ren was born and grew up healthily. If nothing happens, this child with Wei blood will become a new generation of emperors, and Wei Zhongxian can continue to manipulate the power of the Ming Dynasty. However, people are not as good as heaven. On the sixth day of May in the sixth year of the Apocalypse, the mysterious maharaja factory exploded in Beijing. Many eunuchs in the palace were killed by wooden sills falling from the temple and honeymooners. Zhu Cihuan, who had been in shock for seven months, died, completely ruining Wei Zhongxian's dream.

After Ming Xianzong succeeded to the throne, Zhou Guifei, the former emperor of Ming Yingzong, still did not forget to contend with the money queen. First, she ordered eunuch Shi Xia to appoint her as the empress dowager. However, with the efforts of Li Xian and Shi Peng, the two palaces merged and both of them were promoted to Queen Mother. Wu, the original queen of Xianzong, killed the Wan family with a stick (at this time, the Wan family was very fond of Xianzong), and Xianzong was angry and abandoned it. Empress Qian discouraged illegitimate children from a rational point of view, while Empress Zhou only played the devil's advocate and supported her son's abolition. In this way, Empress Qian offended Ming Xianzong and Wan at the same time, and Empress Zhou succeeded in provoking. From then on, the money queen was not respected by the concubines, and the money people were not treated as well as the Zhou people.

Chen's queen, Shen Wuhua, was born in a noble family and was the daughter of princess royal of Chen Dynasty. She is quiet and upright, and she is not liked by Chen. The bohemian Chen only likes seductive women such as Zhang Lihua and Kong. Kong and Zhang Lihua formed an alliance to vilify the adopted son of Queen Shen, and Kong's righteous brother and courtier Kong Fan also cooperated with the imperial court to actively crack down on the prince (while Zhang and Kong's second imperial concubine lacked the prince day and night, and Kong Fan's followers synthesized outside, and Prince Chen Yin was finally abolished and replaced by Zhang Lihua's eldest son Chen Shen. Chen also wants to abolish Shen, because Sui destroyed the battle of Chen. After destroying Chen, Gao Jiong killed Zhang Lihua, and Shen Wuhua and Chen were captured together. Yang Di respects Shen Wuhua very much and treats him with more courtesy.

One of the major political events in the period of Emperor Wanli was the struggle between countries. Sister, the unloved queen, chose (her biological mother) and no one was loved to attack (Zhu's biological mother). Therefore, later generations have always regarded Sister Wang Xi as the embodiment of justice, protecting the good people in Zhu Changluo (Guangzong is in the East Palace, and people in danger are counted and well cared for). The struggle between countries is a struggle between good and evil. However, according to the Minutes of Proceedings written by eunuch Liu Ruoyu, sister Wang Xi, the "virtuous princess", abused the eunuchs around her (many people lamented Chu and died more than 100 people). On the contrary, Zheng Guifei, the "traitor", was very kind to eunuchs around him (except Empress Zheng, the imperial concubine of the Emperor, who served eunuchs well). It seems that my sister Wang Xi is not a good person. Combined with her kindness in serving her mother-in-law (filial piety determines the favor of the queen mother), protecting her mother and son is like Sun Liulian's resistance to Cao in the Three Kingdoms period.

In the harem, the No.1 female host is a queen, and the No.2 female host is Zhu Defai (Xing Guifei and other concubines were sealed only after their death, but only concubines during their lifetime). Mother-in-law and Empress Dowager only like to suppress the prince's biological mother Zhu Defa everywhere. After Song Shenzong's death, Zhao Xu succeeded to the throne, namely Song Zhezong. Zhu Ba's coffin, which turned into toffee, was escorted to Yongyuling, Gongxian County, and former Prime Minister Han Jiang personally greeted him on the outskirts of Yong 'an. After Zhu returned to the palace, he probably mentioned it to his mother-in-law in order to praise Han Jiang's courtesy (even the right courtesy). As a result, he was scolded for not being worthy of the gift of the first prime minister, which scared Zhu to cry and apologize.
It seems that Empress Dowager Cixi was not as mean to Zhu as her mother-in-law, but she was seriously ill at the age of 25 and had no son alive. The contradiction between Zhu and the Palace escalated. Before his son died, Empress Zhu asked him to be handed over to his mother and brother Zhao, which caused great dissatisfaction with Empress Zhu. Therefore, as soon as Zhezong died of illness, he chose the last king out of selfishness (his mother was Chen, which was strongly opposed by the prime minister), and he also moved the one who had died for many years, using this as an excuse: "The first emperor tasted the words: the last king lived long and was benevolent." In fact, Song Shenzong was only three years old when he died, and his birth mother's grade was just a beauty. How can Song Shenzong see that Evonne is blessed?
After Zhao Ji succeeded to the throne as Song Huizong, he paid nominal courtesy to Empress Zhu Jin, but died at the hands of Empress Zhu two years later. He began to retaliate against Zhao Sizhan, who was vying for the throne, and set off Cai's prison case. Some people accuse Deng Duo, a teenager like Zhao Cai, of having rebellious remarks and putting Deng Duo in prison. However, Zuo Si warned Jiang Gong and suggested not to kill each other and not to doubt Zhao. However, Jiang was dismissed and Deng Duo was executed. Minister Liu continued to intercede on the grounds that Emperor Wendi of the Western Han Dynasty and the King of Huainan were mutually destructive. The official record is that Song Huizong was moved and reconciled with Zhao Xiang (the emperor was moved and dissolved his prison until Cai Wang was as good as ever). But five years later, Zhao seems to have passed away at the age of 26, and the cause of death is unknown.
