Do you really know the story of Emperor Maode? Today, the history encyclopedia editor brings you a brand new interpretation~
We all know that in ancient times, the status of women was very low, and even princesses who received countless favors could not make their own decisions. But today, the princess I am going to talk about is a favored princess who was sent into the enemy’s tent by her own father, suffered humiliation, and became a plaything of others! What the hell is going on? Hurry up and follow the editor to take a look together.
She was Zhao Fujin, the consort of Emperor Maode and the fourth daughter of Emperor Huizong of Song. She was born very beautiful from a young age, and from the moment she was born, she was the apple of her father’s eye. He loved her very much, and whenever she wanted something, the emperor would satisfy her. When she reached the age of marriage, the emperor gave her to a young and promising minister in the court. After marriage, the two lived a particularly happy life, respecting and loving each other. One was exceptionally beautiful, and the other was exceptionally talented, making them a perfect match.
But later on, when the Jin Dynasty invaded and faced their threat, Song Weizong dared not refute it. He completely disregarded that his daughter had already been married and immediately sent someone to send her to the Jin Dynasty camp. The result can be imagined. As the consort of Emperor Maode of the Northern Song Dynasty, she could not escape the fate of being ruined. Because Emperor Maode Ji was the first person to be sent into the enemy camp, she suffered the humiliation of the Jin people and was constantly given away, ultimately becoming someone else’s plaything. It’s really very pitiful.
So it’s really sad to say that in ancient times, the dignity and life of women were really lowly. No one regarded them as human beings, just tools. Even princesses were no exception, or sometimes even more pitiful. Fortunately, the feudal dynasties have finally disappeared, and the status of women is slowly improving. Such absurd things will not happen anymore. We should all cherish today’s society well
