Chapter 316 Pan Shu, who is inherently deficient and greedy
Pan Shu responded with a smile: "It would be great if I could find a reliable person to help Liang'er and teach him. I am now very worried about these harem matters. If I am asked to deal with foreign ministers again,
Then we are really helpless,
Your Majesty, you also know my concubine’s background. She entered the weaving room in the palace at a very young age, and her knowledge, skills, etc. are incomparable to those of Xie Bu, who comes from a wealthy family."
Mrs. Xie (date of birth and death unknown) was from Shanyin in Kuaiji (now southeast of Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province). She was the daughter of Xie Yu and was the first wife Sun Quan married before he came to the throne.
Xie's father, Xie Yuan, was the Minister of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the magistrate of Xu County. He had some family background, and he could barely be considered a good match with Sun Quan at that time, right? Sun Quan's mother, Mrs. Wu, married Sun Quan to marry Xie as his concubine.
Be pampered.
After Mrs. Xie married Sun Quan, their married life was very happy at first. However, in order to consolidate his position in Jiangdong, Sun Quan made a political marriage with his cousin Xu Kun and married his cousin.
The niece, Mrs. Xu, also asked Mrs. Xie to vacate her position as the head wife, which made Mrs. Xie very dissatisfied.
Since marrying Sun Quan, Mrs. Xie has been working hard and taking care of the family affairs for Sun Quan, but Sun Quan asked her to give up her position as the head wife, which Mrs. Xie could not accept. Moreover, Mrs. Xu, who wanted to snatch her position as the head wife, was once a widow.
, which made her feel that she had been greatly humiliated, but there was nothing she could do.
After all, her family's power was not as powerful as that of Mrs. Xu's family. In addition, her father Xie Yuan, whom she relied on the most, and her father-in-law Sun Jian, who loved her, had also passed away. In the end, she had no choice but to give up her position and use humiliation to serve her husband.
Consolidate your political position and make concessions.
Sun Quan's second wife, Xu, was from Fuchun, Wu County (Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province). The daughter of Xu Kun, a wealthy family in Wu County, Xu was first married to Lu Shang, a member of the Lu family in Wu County. Lu Shang was single after his death, and became a captive after Xie.
General Sun Quan's second wife was divorced in the 17th year of Jian'an (AD 212). Even though she was a widow before, her family background was not bad.
The third wife was born in the Bu clan, and she was also a virtuous wife of Sun Quan. She was very helpful to Sun Quan both internally and externally with her clan members Bu Zhao.
The King's wife, the mother of the current Crown Prince Sun He, although she does not have much family background, she entered the palace through the formal channel of the draft, and her background is much better than that of Pan Shu.
She gave birth to Sun Quan's third son, Sun He, in the third year of Huang Wu. At that time, Mrs. Wang was the most favored concubine besides Mrs. Bu. Sun He was also particularly loved by Sun Quan because of her mother's relationship.
In the fifth year of Chiwu, after the death of the original prince Sun Deng, Sun He was established as the prince.
As the mother of the crown prince, Mrs. Wang held the power of the harem, and there were strong calls to make Wang the queen at that time. However, Bu's daughter, Princess Quan, hated Mrs. Wang for taking away her mother's position and often slandered her.
In the eighth year of Chiwu's reign, Sun Quan was seriously ill. Princess Quan said that Wang didn't care about her father's illness, and she was overjoyed when she saw this. After hearing this, the emperor was furious and scolded Wang, and Mrs. Wang died of fright and worry.
Although Mrs. Xiao Wang was drafted into the palace, she had nothing to do with Mrs. Wang. After Wang was selected into the palace, she was favored by Sun Quan during the Jiahe period and gave birth to six sons, Sun Xiu.
Later, in the fifth year of Chiwu, because Sun He's mother, Mrs. Wang, was noble, all the women in the palace who had been favored by Sun Quan had to leave the palace to live, so the Wang family was moved to Gong'an. Although she had no sense of existence, her background was better than hers.
better,
Not to mention Mrs. Yuan, she is the daughter of Yuan Shu, the fourth generation and the third Duke. If Yuan Shu had not insisted on proclaiming himself emperor, she would not have fallen into the hands of Sun Quan.
In the second year of Jian'an (197), Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor and named himself Zhong, but he was not recognized by others. Instead, his former subordinate Sun Ce broke with him and was attacked by Cao Cao and Lu Bu.
In June of the fourth year of Jian'an (199), Yuan Shu vomited blood and died.
After Yuan Shu's death, his younger brother Yuan Yin, son-in-law Huang Yi and others were afraid of Cao Cao and did not dare to stay in Shouchun, so they led their troops with Yuan Shu's coffin, wife and children to Wancheng to attach themselves to Yuan Shu's former official Lujiang Prefect Liu Xun
.
Six months later, Sun Ce led Zhou Yu, Sun Quan and others to defeat Liu Xun in Wancheng. Liu Xun and his younger brother Liu Kai escaped alone. All the female family members were captured. Yuan and her family were taken into custody and taken care of and sent to Wu County.
.
In November of the second year of Huangchu (221), Sun Quan was granted the title of King of Wu, and Yuan entered the palace as his wife.
Mrs. Yuan was virtuous but childless. Sun Quan repeatedly gave her the sons born to Zhu Ji to raise, but she was always unable to raise them. Although Pan Shu's family background was not as good as that of Yuan's, Pan Shu was able to give birth to a son for Sun Quan.
, Yuan's cannot. This is Yuan's biggest disadvantage.
In terms of talents and virtues, Pan Shu can't even compare with Zhao Da's younger sister Zhao. Zhao is good at calligraphy and painting and has achieved high achievements. However, Pan Shu could only weave before, and was not very proficient in playing, playing, chess, calligraphy and painting.
She is not a woman from an aristocratic family and can only cook good Jiangdong dishes. However, this is enough to please His Majesty. However, if she wants to sit on the throne of the Queen of Wu, she still has a lot of inherent shortcomings.
Fortunately, His Majesty is completely determined this time, and it seems that it is not as difficult as the previous times. Otherwise, Pan Shu will probably only get a posthumous title of Queen. What use is this to her?
Today, Pan Shu is very greedy. She wants the glory of her mother's honor in the world during her lifetime and the honor after her death. She even wants to use it for her son Sun Liang to sit in the position of prince, but she also wants to use it for her son Sun Liang.
With so many inherent deficiencies, I can only rely on His Majesty and the alliance with Princess Quan.
Fortunately, the eldest princess, who had repeatedly opposed them before, had been taken captive to Luoyang by Cao Shuang. Now there is much less resistance to promote these things.
We have all heard the saying that women are ignorant, which has caused many people to have the impression that women in ancient times were weak women without talent.
But in fact, in ancient my country, women in the aristocratic class all needed to study at home before getting married.
However, the family's emphasis on women's studies is different from that of men. Men do it for their official career, while women do it to understand things, distinguish right from wrong, and increase their talents so as not to know anything.
The more knowledgeable you are, the more prestigious families with a long history have strict regulations on education. For families like this, it is empty talk that women are not talented.
Since women are not allowed to appear in public and can only stay at home, families will hire teachers to teach at home. Men learn the Four Books and Five Classics, and women learn the "Nv's Precepts" and "Nv's Training" to teach women how to discipline themselves.
Books on behavior and thoughts, these are things Pan Shu does not possess.
Sun Quan once lamented that Wei and Shu were not at peace, and wanted to have people draw topographic maps of the mountains and rivers of various countries. Zhao gave Sun Quan the topographic map of the mountains and rivers of Jianghu and Jiuzhou that he had drawn, and also embroidered the topographic map of the Five Mountains and Countries on the square silk.
She had a great influence on the court at that time, and she was considered the first female painter.
The Zhao family has "three unique skills" - machine skills, needle skills, and silk skills. That is, brocade, embroidery and glue silk for light curtains.
He was able to weave colorful silks between his fingers into a brocade of dragons and phoenixes, and was nicknamed "Ji Jue" in the palace. On the square silk, he embroidered the topography of the Five Mountains and various countries, which was nicknamed "Zhen Jue" at the time.
Man Man, nicknamed "Si Jue", but fortunately there is no scheming or competition for favor, which makes her one less opponent.
