Speaking of this story, it is almost impossible to be true, but it did happen, just not in modern society, but in the Spring and Autumn Period more than 2,500 years ago. In the story, the girl who marries far away is Qi Jinggong's daughter Shao Jiang, who wants to marry Jin Pinggong.
Although the date of birth is not recorded, Jinping Gong is more likely than Qi Jinggong. In 557 BC, he inherited the throne. At that time, the monarch of the State of Qi was Gong Ling of the State of Qi. At first, he respected the State of Jin as the overlord. But after a long time, he wanted to leave the state of Jin more and more and look for the prosperity of Qi again.
As soon as Jin Pinggong ascended the throne, he gave Gong Ling of Qi a duel, led the troops to attack Qi, besieged Linzi, and Gong Ling of Qi suffered a crushing defeat. Zuo Zhuan records:? Kim chased him, surrounded him and burned his pot. ? This battle frightened Qi Linggong, but a few years later, Qi Linggong died and his son Qi Zhuanggong succeeded to the throne. Qi Zhuanggong used the traitor of the State of Jin to do things, and was cleaned up by Duke Jinping of Jin.
It wasn't long before Qi went on the road to attack the State of Jin, when civil strife broke out. This Qi Zhuanggong cuckolded his courtiers, then his head was moved and his younger brother Qi Jinggong was promoted to the position of monarch.
After Qi Jinggong succeeded to the throne, civil strife broke out in Qi, and various factions of the Qing Dynasty fought for power with each other. Most of the time, Qi Jinggong is helpless. First, Cui Shi and Qingshi were in power, and Qingshi destroyed Cui Shi. Chef, Bao, Luan and Gao joined hands to bring down Qingshi, and then Luan and Gao were in power. In 532 BC, the chef and Bao solved it together.
Only the chef and Bao are left in the Qing nationality of Qi. At this time, the chef offered his fief and property to Qi Jinggong to gain the support of the clan. Only then did the civil strife in Qi temporarily end and the rule of Qi was on the right track. Prior to this, due to civil strife, China's foreign policy was pro-gold.
What is the best way to be pro-gold? Nature is marriage, so Qi Jinggong decided to marry his daughter Siu Keung to Jin Pinggong. In the summer of 540 BC, Han Qi of the State of Jin came to Qi to marry Shao Jiang for Jin Pinggong. Xiao Jiang's age is not big, and he may have just arrived, but when he was about fifteen years old, when Duke Jinping ascended the throne, Xiao Jiang was probably not born. But for the sake of Qi, Siu Keung had no choice. "Zhao Gong two years" records:
In summer and April, Han must be like a rebellious woman. Qi Chen Wu Yu sent a girl, causing less ginger. Shao Jiang was favored by Jin Hou, who called him Shao Qi. ?
When Shao Jiang arrived in the State of Jin, Jin Pinggong liked this concubine very much and specially called her Liu Shaoqi, but in July this year, Shao Jiang died. As for the cause of death, there is no record in the history books, so we can only make a little guess:
First, Shaojiang set off from Linzi, Qi State, and went to Xintian, Jin State in April. At present, it is about 1500 miles from Zibo in Shandong to Houma in southwest Shanxi. Even if you go by carriage, it's hard to go without Jiang Ye. From April to July, half the time is on the road. The journey was hard, probably because Shao Jiang couldn't stand it and died after arriving.
Second, Jin Pinggong is lewd. Maybe he can do it. The year before he married Shao Jiang, Duke Jinping also sought medical treatment due to illness. Zheng Guozhi and Qin Guohe both think that Duke Jinping and too much sexual behavior should be restrained, but Duke Jinping ignores these, perhaps because of his special hobbies.
Third, version is a princess of Qi. After marrying into the State of Jin, she is not a noble lady, but she is also favored. Besides, there are many concubines in Jin Pinggong harem, so she may have been killed.
Of course, these are just guesses, and the specific situation is unknown. As Siu Keung's father, Qi Jinggong didn't ask about his daughter's death. Maybe it's nothing to him. What he cares about is whether the relationship with the state of Jin will change because of his daughter's death. So in the first month of the second year, Qi Jinggong sent Yan Ying to the State of Jin to get married again. Ying said to Duke Jinping:
Then there are people who are suitable for their predecessors, who have left their aunts and sisters. If you don't dislike our city and humiliate Dong Zhen for choosing it because you are afraid of it, I hope so. ?
Uncle Jin replied:? The wish of a widowed gentleman is also. ? So the marriage was reached again. In the summer of 539 BC, Han Qi of the State of Jin came to Qi again to marry Qi Jinggong's daughter to Jin Pinggong.
At that time, the courtiers of Qi were the princes of Lu 'an and Gao. Gong Sunxiang knew that Major General was favored by the palace, so he wanted his daughter to marry, not his daughter.
When Han Qi and the princess were halfway away from Linzi, Sun Mi caught up with her daughter, and then let her go to the State of Jin as a bride, becoming the duke's concubine, while the princess was left by Sun Mi to marry someone else.
Poor daughter, princess of Qi State, her marriage was so untidy that it was changed by Qing Dafu of Qi State. As a wedding ambassador, Han Qi didn't care about this replacement, as he said:? I want to stay away from my pet. What will my pet do in the future? ?
