Historian Cang Lan replied that characters have prototypes, but love may also be real, a Platonic love.
1. Princess Fukang and Liang Huaiji in history, eunuchs of the Renzong Dynasty in the Northern Song Dynasty, were smart since childhood and acted in TV dramas. If it weren't for misfortune, Liang Huaiji was definitely a scholar who could achieve fame and fortune. Princess Kang, the eldest daughter of Injong, was named Princess Yanzhou. Injong dotes on this daughter very much. He married her to Wei Li, the son of her biological mother Li Chenfei's younger brother. However, Wei Li is ugly and likes to be arty, which the princess doesn't like. Zhao Huirou likes Liang Huaiji, the eunuch who grew up with her, but the spiritual love between these two people is also unacceptable.
Secondly, the unfortunate marriage of Princess Fukang led to the night lock of the palace gate.
One night in February, the sixth year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Princess Fukang and Liang Huaiji, assistant minister of the Imperial Palace, were drinking and having fun. Our mother, Yang, peeked quietly in the other room and was found by the princess. She flew into a rage on the spot. There were also physical conflicts between the two sides. Princess Fukang was so angry that she ran back to the palace overnight, shouting to open the forbidden door, crying to Xu and demanding peace.
The forbidden doors of the palace are not allowed to be opened at night. This is the system, even the princess is no exception. The remonstrating officer protested to Renzong, so the official who shut the princess in the forbidden door was punished and the princess was taken back by Xu. However, their marriage did not improve and the princess became depressed. At this time, she fell in love with eunuch Liang Huaiji.
Rumors about princesses and eunuchs spread rapidly in Beijing, damaging the dignity of the royal family. Scholars wrote to Injong. Under pressure, Injong stripped Zhuo Yan of her title and was reduced to Princess Guo Yi. She still lives in the court. His wet nurse Han was fired and everyone in the government was dissolved. The chamberlain headed by Liang Huaiji was sent to Xijing Luoyang to sweep the grave. Xu Weili was exiled to Weizhou, and Wei Li's mother was taken care of by Wei Li's brother Zhang Li.
Princess Kang was sent away because of her favorite chamberlain. Her heart became more isolated, which aggravated her illness. She tried to kill herself several times and once almost set fire to the palace where she lived.
Renzong was sad to see his beloved daughter crazy. Regret, and recall Liang Huaiji, zhang, remonstrate again. However, the emperor was unmoved this time. After the Liang couple came back, the princess's madness was not completely cured. When she was asked to go back to the Princess House, she would commit suicide, or she was already well, so she used madness to resist getting back together with Xu.
Everyone in the court sympathized with the princess. The princess's biological mothers, Miao Guifei and Yu Chongyi, secretly asked for a will to kill Wei Li in order to vent their anger on the princess, and finally gave up because Injong took care of her family. After the princess entered the palace, Wei Li's brother Zhang Li said at the dinner table that Wei Li was stupid and unworthy of the princess and asked for a divorce. Injong agreed. However, on the deathbed of Injong, he decided to resume their marriage. Eight years later (1070), Princess Fukang died at the age of 33. At that time, the princess's nephew Zongshen was in power, and Wei Li was exiled to Chen Zhou on charges of "the watch without the owner".
In the TV series Qing Ping Le, Bian Cheng plays the eunuch Liang Huaiji, which completely subverts our previous impression of eunuchs. Liang Huaiji in the play is quiet, can write and draw, and is more like a talented person, which has nothing to do with Princess Fukang with noble temperament. Liang Huaiji and Princess Fukang know each other and love each other, but they are doomed to be a tragedy without results. Historically, Liang Huaiji was indeed a personal attendant of Princess Fukang. So what was the last game of Liang Huaiji in history?
Princess Kang is the favorite daughter, because the princess is smart and filial, and Renzong is always around to wait on her when she is sick. Injong's love for this daughter was unprecedented in the Song Dynasty, but it was this love that ruined the happiness of Princess Fukang's life. Because Song Renzong's biological mother was Li Chenfei, Song Renzong felt that he had wronged her, so he paid little attention to Li Chenfei's mother. Even to thank them, she betrothed her beloved Princess Fukang to her younger brother's son. Wei Li is Song Renzong's cousin, so he is Princess Fukang's cousin. Princess Fukang doesn't want or can't get married. Liang Huaiji, as the princess's attendant, accompanied the princess to marry Wei Li. But Song Renzong bought Princess Fukang a Princess House, so the princess lived in the Princess House after marriage, and Liang Huaiji was the eunuch in charge of the Princess House.
Princess Fukang doesn't like Wei Li because she is ugly. Influenced by Princess Fukang, the servants' attitude towards Wei Li gradually became disrespectful. One day a few years later, Liang Huaiji was drinking with Princess Fukang. Her mother Yang hid and peeped, and was discovered by Princess Fukang. The princess not only beat her mother-in-law, but also ran back to the palace in the middle of the night and cried to her father Song Renzong. Ministers were very dissatisfied with Princess Fukang's behavior and protested. Song Renzong had to send Liang Huaiji to Luoyang to calm people's anger.
Afterwards, Princess Fukang was greatly stimulated and tried to commit suicide many times. Song Renzong couldn't bear it, so he had to recall Liang Huaiji to his palace. Since then, there has been no record of Liang Huaiji in the official history. His final outcome is likely to be to end his life alone.
1030 10 The prototype of Huaiji is the eunuch of the Song Dynasty. He has a deep relationship with Princess Fukang.
The figure of Liang Huaiji in Qingping Music is a highlight. In particular, his love story with Princess Huirou is a much-told story. So, in Historical Records, is Liang Huaiji really like the man in the TV series? Come and have a look with me.
Historically, Liang Huaiji was Princess Fukang's chamberlain, who mainly took care of the princess's daily life and was a eunuch. This is true. However, according to historical records, although Liang Huaiji has been with the princess, he did not clearly point out that they were lovers.
As said in the play, Princess Fukang is Song Renzong's favorite daughter and wants to give her the best of herself. However, this marriage did not satisfy Princess Fukang's wishes. At first, two people grew up together, and there was no speculation. Can be said to be bosom friends, but in the later development unconsciously fell in love with each other. But because of their status, there is no significant difference between them.
Because Liang Huaiji has been with the princess since childhood, reading and writing with her. Hearing and hearing, coupled with Liang Huaiji's talent and later efforts, became particularly talented and gentle. It is because of his temperament and knowledge that the princess likes him. Although two people have special identities and can't be together after all, a beautiful love story is still promising.
Historically, Liang Huaiji was indeed a eunuch. His original name was Liang. Later, he was promoted to eunuch because he accompanied the princess since childhood and because of his outstanding talent. I have been to Zhao's home before because I liked to soak candied fruit with drugs in my early years. So the following people followed his example, which led to the soaring folk drug prices and indirectly led to Liang's.
After extinction, Liang Huaiji was sold into the palace, and the ten-year-old Huaiji stayed in the palace. The name "Huaiji" was given by the Queen. From then on, he and the princess began an unforgettable love affair.
According to historical records, Princess Fukang died at the age of 33. In the TV series, Huaiji lived a new life, but there is no explanation in the history books.
