Rebirth of the Ming Dynasty: Sixth Generation of Glory, I don't want it

Ming Dynasty, the 28th year of Hongwu, July.

Yongcheng, Zhang family.

"Are you unhappy, sister?"

The maid rolled up her sleeves and tiptoedly took off the jewelry on her young lady's head, and asked carefully.

It was clearly a happy day. The family had just received an imperial edict. The young lady became the Crown Prince of Yan and was about to marry into the most noble family in the world, but the expression on the young lady's face was not really happy.

"No, you can back off. I can do it myself."

Zhang Xin waved his hand and asked Wanxiu to leave.

Happy, haha, Zhang Xin sneered in his heart.

She remembered every word in the imperial edict of enthronement, and it was deeply engraved in her mind.

[I rule the world and have made my sons kings. The eldest son of the Prince of Yan, Zhu Gaochi, has been made the Crown Prince. He has grown up and I have chosen a virtuous woman to be his wife. I have heard that the Zhang family has a daughter who is virtuous and intelligent, and is a good match for marriage. I hereby grant you the title of Crown Prince of Yan and make you the consort. You should be a good wife and help the family and the country. Respect you! ]

The Zhang family has a daughter, haha.

Virtuous and kind!

Big brother, Zhang Chang, means bright and long, long day.

The second brother, Zhang Sheng, was named after his eldest brother, which means the sun rises and the moon sets, which means brightness.

As for her, the first daughter of the Zhang family, her father held her in the palm of his hand and only gave her a name when she was one year old - Zhang Xin.

It not only means that the parents are happy about the arrival of their daughter, but also means that she will thrive and grow up healthily under the care of her brothers.

She is the daughter of the Zhang family, Zhang, the Crown Prince's Consort, the Crown Princess, the Empress, the Empress Dowager, and the Grand Empress Dowager.

My father-in-law’s father is the emperor, my father-in-law himself is the emperor, my husband is the emperor, my son is the emperor, my eldest grandson is the emperor, and my second grandson is also the emperor.

It is said that she was the most blessed woman. She met six emperors of the Ming Dynasty and assisted three generations of emperors in creating a prosperous era.

A small, ordinary girl rose step by step to the position of Empress Dowager.

She was called "a heroine among men" by later generations.

Ridiculous, extremely ridiculous!!!

Her whole life.

The man she married was not a good one, and all the support and care was given to someone else.

She is the one who has to clean up the mess.

How much injustice did she suffer and how many tears did she shed back then.

After finally getting through it, she first lost her husband, then her eldest son, then her second son, and finally her daughter died before her.

The eldest grandson whom she had supported took over the country after her death.

What a great Ming war god! What a great grandson!

Tumubao! It deceived hundreds of thousands of people in the Ming Dynasty!

Doesn't she have any idea of ​​her own worth? If her father-in-law Zhu Di had the same experience as her, he would come back immediately and skin him alive.

My husband is not very good and my grandson is a waste, that's all.

But where is my son? Where is my daughter?

She was unwilling to give up, so she raised each of them from the time they were born, when they were as small as kittens, to when they grew up, and then married those who were supposed to get married.

She never imagined it would end like that.

Of the four children, only the youngest son survived and did not die before her.

Why!!!???

The children's father, a fat man like Zhu Gaochi, who suffered from all kinds of illnesses, lived to be forty-eight years old!

Why did her son and daughter have such short lives?

No matter whose death it was, it came suddenly, and she was busy grieving and dealing with the aftermath.

I was so busy all the way that I died.

She read through all the statements, and none of them was acceptable to her.

So she came back.

But things don't always go as planned. I came too early and have to live with that fat guy for a few more years.

Humph, there will be no such good things this time!

What virtue, kindness and wisdom? It's worse than stewing a goose!

"Roll up your sleeves."

"Please come over, brothers. It's time."

He rolled up his sleeves and left.

After a while, her two brothers Zhang Chang and Zhang Sheng came.

A look of helplessness.

"Sister, we've been detained for three years, and we still have to continue?!"

The two brothers said in unison.

"Studying is not something that can be done overnight. It takes three to five years. You can learn until you are old. Brothers, you must know this—"

Zhang Xin meticulously arranged the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk and spoke softly to his two brothers. However, he was interrupted by his second brother Zhang Sheng just as he started talking.

"Okay, please don't say anything. Can't I just learn?"

Zhang Xin nodded slightly, then silently went back behind the curtain and sat down.

Started the day's homework with my two brothers.

In her previous life, she found out two years after entering the palace that the selection of concubines did not start from the time she entered the capital.

As soon as the imperial edict was issued and the name of the common woman was reported, the emperor's grandfather's Jinyiwei began to keep an eye on her.

They said they would select from five thousand people, but in reality, there were more than eight thousand.

No, you can’t even enter Kyoto.

In the past few years, they have been living under other people's supervision, if not all the time.

It is possible that it was because she encouraged her brothers to make progress that she was valued by the emperor and chosen to be the crown prince consort of Zhu Gaochi.

This fat guy claims to be bookish, gentle and honest, but in reality, huh!

"Mom can finally sleep soundly."

Zhang Sheng started writing big characters but still couldn't help looking at the girl behind the bead curtain and wanted to say a few more words.

Three years ago, my sister caught a cold and had a fever all night. The doctor said there was no hope for her.

But the girl still survived. After that, he occasionally felt that the girl was scary. When she looked at people with a cold face, it gave him goose bumps.

"My uncle is so happy."

The eldest brother Zhang Chang said with a smile without even raising his head, "It's such a great honor for my sister to be chosen as the Crown Prince's Consort. The whole Zhang family is going crazy."

“Just keep a normal mind.”

Zhang Xin responded, took a book and started reading it seriously.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A few words of background:

The story begins in the 28th year of Hongwu.

Zhu Yuanzhang would die three years later at the age of seventy-one.

The original crown prince Zhu Biao died of illness three years ago at the age of only 39.

Zhu Biao's eldest son, Zhu Xiongying, the crown prince born to the legitimate Crown Princess Chang, died earlier than Zhu Biao at the age of eight.

Therefore, Zhu Yunwen, the son of Crown Princess Lu (who was promoted from a concubine to the legitimate wife), was made the Crown Prince by Zhu Yuanzhang in the name of establishing the eldest son as the legitimate heir.

Zhu Yunwen was ousted from power by Zhu Yuanzhang's fourth son Zhu Di after being emperor for a few years.

The protagonist of this article, Zhu Gaochi, was eighteen years old at the time. He was the eldest son of Zhu Di and the future Emperor Renzong of Ming Dynasty.

The heroine of this article, Zhang Xin, Empress Zhang, has no record of her birth year. According to the custom at the time, she was roughly between 13 and 16 years old. Her name is also not recorded, but it is inferred from her brother's name. This woman was selected by Zhu Yuanzhang after a popular selection and was ordered to be married to Zhu Gaochi.

Zhang was born in the common people. Historical records say that she was the daughter of the commander-in-chief. In fact, the commander-in-chief was given the title after Empress Zhang was chosen. Before that, she was said to be a minor official in charge of grain in the Yongcheng County Government in Henan Province.

This article takes the reborn Empress Zhang as the protagonist, mainly because I really feel pity for this glorious queen of the Six Dynasties.

The posthumous title of Empress Chengxiaogongsumingdehongrenshuntianqishengzhao has all the beautiful words in it, but life is really not so wonderful, so, get excited! !

It’s still the same tune. There are some regrets in history, so regrettable, so we want to make it less regrettable.
