Ming Xiaozong's biological mother, Queen Xiaomu, whose surname was Ji, was from Hezhou, Guangxi. She was originally the daughter of a native official of a minority group. During the reign of Emperor Xianzong, her father was killed during the campaign against barbarians, and she herself was She was kidnapped and taken into the palace to serve as a female official. Because she had a fairly good education, she was assigned to visit the archives.
Ji's family
One time Emperor Zhu Jianshen went to the archives to check information. Ji's family happened to be on duty. When Zhu Jianshen summoned him, he answered questions fluently and calmly, which the emperor admired very much. The girl was quite pretty, and while chatting, Zhu Jianshen felt that the two of them really hit it off and fell in love at first sight, and then Zhu Jianshen favored her on the spot (the five thousand words of the favor process are omitted here).
Ming Xianzong Zhu Jianshen
Although Zhu Jianshen’s behavior was due to a series of personal reasons such as his whim and low self-control ability, it cannot be ignored that the reason why he did so was There is an extremely important external reason - he has no son, so he must seize every opportunity and women to give him a son as much as possible. It stands to reason that Zhu Jianshen is in good health and there are many women in the palace, so why doesn't he have a son?
Because he only favored Concubine Wan Gui, who was nineteen years older than him, and Concubine Wan Gui had no children. She was jealous and happened to be in menopause. "Prince exists" concept, and family planning was carried out in the palace. The specific method is that as long as a concubine is pregnant, she will try every means to have an abortion, even if she gives birth, she will kill her. It is precisely because of such a great teammate that Zhu Jianshen has never been able to hold his son.
Concubine Wan Gui
Mr. Ji was both lucky and unfortunate. Although this was her first taste of the forbidden fruit, she was hit by Zhu Jianshen. Soon she found out that she was no longer menstruating. I also often started vomiting. Amidst the anxiety, she finally met the man sent by the extremely jealous woman to abort the child in her belly.
Maybe the palace maid who had the abortion was very familiar with Ji, maybe she knew how pitiful Ji's life experience was, maybe she had long disliked Concubine Wan Gui, but in short, she didn't touch Ji, but only treated Wan Guifei. The imperial concubine lied and said that Ji was very ill and was about to die. Concubine Wan Gui, who had calmed down a little, did not go into details and drove Ji to Anletang to settle the matter.
Paper cannot cover the fire, and clothes cannot cover the pregnant belly. A few months later, the cry of a baby was heard in Anletang, and Ji successfully gave birth to a baby boy. The furious Concubine Wan Gui first beat to death the palace maid who lied about the military situation, and then sent eunuch Zhang Min to drown the child. Zhang Min was shocked: "The emperor doesn't have a son yet, why should he be killed!" He went to Ji's house and took the child to a hidden place. He, Ji and other kind-hearted eunuchs and maids in Anletang saved some money. Go out and buy some honey and milk powder to feed this child. It is difficult to support a child with only this meager amount of money. The healthy growth of this child is also attributed to the care of the deposed Wu family and Huaien, the eunuch beside the emperor.
Wynn
The upbringing of this child has always been the top secret of Anletang. In order to keep this secret, the child's fetal hair was not cut when he was five or six years old. Concubine Wan Gui's eyes and ears were looking around Anletang every day, but she didn't find a child in Anletang. Until one day, Zhang Min told this matter himself.
Zhu Jianshen, who has not had a son for a long time, is naturally worried about having no children. Once when Zhang Min was giving him a haircut, he sighed: "I'm almost old, and I still don't have a son!" Zhang After hearing this, Min pondered for a long time, and suddenly fell to his knees: "This slave deserves to die, long live you already have a son!" Zhu Jianshen was shocked: "Where is my son!"
Zhang With tears in his eyes, Min fell to the ground and choked up and said, "I'm sure I won't live long as soon as I tell you. Long live my Lord, you will definitely make the decision for the prince!" Wynn stood up and said, "Zhang Min is right, the prince is here." In Anle Hall, he was already six years old, but he was afraid of being persecuted by Concubine Wan Gui, so he never dared to say anything!"
Zhu Jianshen was so overjoyed that he didn't even want to cut his hair and went straight to Anle Hall to find his son!
Knowing that the secret could no longer be kept, Mrs. Ji burst into tears. She took her son over and helped him freshen up. She cried and said, "My son, if you leave, my mother won't live for long. You see The man in the yellow robe with the beard is your father. When your mother is gone, you must listen to your father! Don’t make your father angry and study hard..." Before he could finish his words, he was already bursting into tears. It's raining!
Zhu Jianshen, who was so happy that he was about to fly into the sky, immediately made the young prince the prince, Ji's concubine, and also gave her family great rewards. Concubine Ji Shu said: "Almost all of my family members have passed away. I don't want much reward from your majesty. I just ask you to treat the prince well!" Zhu Jianshen, who didn't understand what Concubine Ji Shu said, just played with his son until It was only when I saw Ji Shufei's cold body three months later that I understood the meaning of this sentence.
