In the spring of 1528, Emperor Jiajing lost his temper and severely reprimanded Empress Chen, who was already pregnant, causing Empress Chen to slip on the fetus; Even so, Emperor Jiajing forcibly removed Empress Chen from Kunning Palace, and Empress Chen died of illness only a few months later in fright.
Empress Chen was the wife of Emperor Jiajing, and in 1521 after Zhu Houzhao of Ming Wuzong died without a queen, Emperor Jiajing inherited the throne as "brother to brother".
In the following year, Emperor Jiajing drafted and selected the daughter of the talented Chen Wanyan as the queen and held a big wedding. Chen Wanyan was born in a scholarly family, and since he was a child, he has had great ambitions and a wide range of books, and he has been the first of all his lives when he is still young. However, although Chen Wanyan was full of talent, he failed the imperial examination, and he was only a student until he was 50 years old.
However, because his daughter was canonized as the queen, his father was promoted to Honglu Temple Qing by virtue of his daughter, and then he was awarded the post of Tongzhi of the Governor of the Chinese Military Governor's Office. Moreover, in the third year of Jiajing, Emperor Jiajing gave his father-in-law another 800 acres of land despite the opposition of his ministers.
In the fourteenth year of Jiajing, 7 years after Empress Chen's death, Emperor Jiajing suddenly remembered Empress Chen's virtuous virtues and gave Chen Wanyan the title of Prince Taibao.
Looking at Emperor Jiajing's treatment of Empress Chen's maiden family, it can be seen that Emperor Jiajing still attaches great importance to Empress Chen. But why is it so excessive to Queen Chen, who is already pregnant?
In fact, the reason why the emperor and queen lost harmony was because of a very small thing:
Those who know the history of the Ming Dynasty should know that the queens of the Ming Dynasty were generally of a relatively low background, this is because of the ancestral training left by the crown prince Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, in order to prevent the dictatorship of foreign relatives and control the government. In this way, if you want to be selected as a queen or a concubine, you can only rely on your virtue and beauty. Empress Chen was born very beautiful, and was elected as the Empress of Jiajing. This year, Empress Chen was only 15 years old.
If the queen from a lower background wants to sit firmly on the throne of the queen and cannot rely on her mother's family, there is only one way to go: get the favor of the emperor, give birth to a son-in-law, and the son-in-law is named the crown prince, and the queen is the future queen mother.
Empress Chen was naturally well aware of this fact, so while being favored by Emperor Jiajing, she tried every means to get pregnant and give birth to the prince. In the seventh year of Jiajing, Empress Chen finally got her wish and was able to get pregnant. The pregnant Empress Chen naturally had to watch out for which concubine took advantage of the loophole and took the opportunity to get the favor of Emperor Jiajing, and then threatened her status.
And because of Queen Chen's move, not only was she almost abolished, but she also harmed the child in her womb.
In the spring of this year, Emperor Jiajing accompanied Empress Chen to drink tea, and Emperor Jiajing and Empress Chen were accompanied by Concubine Zhang (Emperor Jiajing's successor) and Concubine Wen. Emperor Jiajing glanced at the concubine's arm, and Empress Chen was jealous and dropped the cup in her hand.
Obviously, the jealous Empress Chen didn't realize that although she was the wife of Emperor Jiajing, Emperor Jiajing was the king of a country, how could she be so rude in front of the emperor as an empress?
What's more, Emperor Jiajing was already eccentric by nature, how could he endure it?
In a fit of rage, Emperor Jiajing lost his temper and frightened Empress Chen into having a miscarriage. After the miscarriage, Empress Chen not only did not receive the forgiveness of Emperor Jiajing, but was ordered by Emperor Jiajing to move directly out of Kunning Palace. And Emperor Jiajing already has the meaning of abolishing the queen, although the abolition of the Ming Dynasty is not as difficult as the Qing Dynasty, but it also needs a legitimate reason.
Emperor Jiajing summoned Yang Yiqing, the first assistant of the cabinet, and others to discuss the matter after the abolition, and after the ministers discussed, they returned to Emperor Jiajing: Empress Chen was critically ill at this time, and if it was abolished, it would damage the reputation of Emperor Jiajing, which was really inappropriate.
Emperor Jiajing thought it was reasonable, so he did not abolish the queen.
After the miscarriage, Empress Chen's health was not as good as before, and she was always afraid of sadness, so she died of illness in October of this year at the age of 21.
At this time, Emperor Jiajing was still angry, not only greatly reduced the specifications for the burial of Empress Chen, but also gave her a vicious "mourning" queen. Empress Chen, as the queen, should be buried in the imperial mausoleum, but Emperor Jiajing not only did not bury her in the imperial mausoleum, but even if there were courtiers to advise, Emperor Jiajing did not listen to it.
In this way, Emperor Jiajing's first empress hastily ended her 7-year career.
After Empress Chen died of illness, Concubine Zhang was canonized as the successor.
However, Empress Zhang only reigned for 7 years, and was deposed because she offended Emperor Jiajing, and died of illness after staying in the cold palace for a year.
I have to admit that it is really difficult to be the queen of Emperor Jiajing.
In the fifteenth year of Jiajing, Empress Chen had been dead for 8 years at this time, and Emperor Jiajing's anger towards Empress Chen had long since disappeared. At the invitation of Xia Yan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Emperor Jiajing changed his wife: Empress Xiaojie. But even so, Emperor Jiajing did not move Empress Chen to the imperial mausoleum.
After Emperor Jiajing died of illness in the forty-fifth year of Jiajing, Ming Muzong succeeded to the throne. The ministers played Mu Zong: Empress Xiaojie is the original wife of Emperor Daxing, and according to the ancestral system, she should be buried with the first emperor. If you follow the edict of the first emperor and bury Empress Xiaoliefang (the third empress of Emperor Jiajing, who saved Emperor Jiajing's life) in the emperor's mausoleum, wouldn't you give up your original match; If the emperor is buried together, it is the two queens who accompany the burial of the emperor's tomb.
Mu Zong listened to the persuasion of the ministers, and gave his mother the nickname "Empress Xiaojiesu", attached to the emperor, and moved it to the emperor's mausoleum, and the god card was enshrined on the side of the god card of Emperor Jiajing in Taimiao. In this way, thirty-eight years after her death, Empress Chen of Xiaojiesu finally got her own treatment as a concubine.
