Chapter 145 Princess Ningguo
My charming and short-lived ancestor: Ahhhhh! Sister kill me! That is to say, this sister is really rich!
Yun Xi: That means this sister is really rich. Isn’t she really the richest woman in the Tang Dynasty?
Jiangnan is already in mist: No, the richest woman in the Tang Dynasty, if Wu Zetian is not included, should be Princess Taiping!
My charming and short-lived ancestor: Princess Taiping was really rich! Moreover, because the princess was deeply loved by Wu Zetian, she had no shortage of fiefs and money, not to mention that she still had some abilities!

Pay attention, this woman’s name is Xiaomei: Yes, so this is the first time for a princess to become Princess Taiping!
Lian Lian: So power is a woman’s best skin care product! If a beauty is not ruthless, her status will be unstable!

Ambivalent Community: seconded! Therefore, Wu Zetian and Mi Bazi are really powerful!

Regarding their words, Su Yue said: "Originally, it was supposed to be about the imperial concubine of the Song Dynasty, but we all know that Her Highness's fate was not good, so let's take a look at the only famous princess of the Ming Dynasty - The eldest princess of Ning Kingdom!"

宁国公主（1364年10月10日－1434年9月7日），明朝公主，明太祖朱元璋次女（嫡长女），母孝慈高皇后马氏。

In the eleventh year of Hongwu (1378), she was granted the title of Princess Ningguo, and she married Mei Yin, the eldest son of Mei Sizu, Hou Mei of Runan, and gave birth to three sons.

In the third year of Yongle (1405), she was granted the title of Princess Ning.

In the 1424nd year of Yongle (), she was granted the title of eldest princess of Ning Kingdom.

In the ninth year of Xuande (1434), the princess died at the age of seventy-one.

My charming and short-lived ancestor: Oh my God! That means Zhu Zhanji has to call her grandma, right?

Jiangnan has been in mist: Yes! All I can say is that this princess is really alive!

Yun Xi: Yes, not many people in Zhu Di’s generation will live until that time!

My charming and short-lived ancestor: Yes, so being safe is more important than anything else! You said that by this time, no one would dare to disobey her! After all, filial piety is still important at this time.

Jiangnan has encountered mist and rain: Yes! When she lived, there were really not many people who could control her, because she was really the oldest.

Lian Lian: Yes, there is indeed no one in Zhu Yuanzhang’s generation who is older than her, and there are not many who are older than her.

Su Yue looked at their comments and said, "You are still too naive. Her situation is not as good as you think!"

Jiangnan is already experiencing mist and rain:? ? ? Zundu and fake toot? I do not believe!

My charming and short-lived ancestor: Yes! She is Zhu Di's biological sister after all. How could Zhu Di treat her badly?
Pay attention, this woman’s name is Xiaomei: Can’t you say that? After all, he didn't treat Zhu Biao's heirs well either!

I send my longing to the bright moon: Yes, Zhu Biao’s child is really miserable! It's worse to be alive!
Don’t let the world grow old: seconded!

Su Yue looked at them and said, "Okay, let's take a look at her life!"

In the eleventh year of Hongwu (1378), she was granted the title of Princess of Ningguo and married to Mei Yin, the son of Runan Hou Mei Sizu.

Among the sixteen consorts, Zhu Yuanzhang especially liked Mei Yin.

At that time, Li Wenzhong was appointed as Shanggong and was in charge of Chinese studies, while Mei Yin was appointed as Shandong's academic administrator.

Zhu Yuanzhang issued an edict praising Mei Yin for his proficiency in classics and history, and all officials in the dynasty respected him.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's later years, the vassal kings were powerful, and Zhu Yuanzhang secretly ordered Mei Yin to assist Emperor Jianwen.

In December of the third year of Jianwen (1401), Mei Yin was ordered to guard Huai'an. He was very concerned about defense and issued strict orders.

In April of the fourth year of Jianwen (1402), Zhu Di defeated Emperor Jianwen's army. Generals such as Ping'an, Ma Pu, and Xu Zhen were all captured. Zhu Di sent an envoy to use the excuse of offering incense to borrow a passage. Mei Yin replied: "On the occasion of offering incense, Well, there are prohibitions in the Imperial Examination, and those who don’t abide by them are unfilial.”

Zhu Di was furious after hearing this and wrote to Mei Yin: "Now that I am raising troops to clear the emperor's side, I am following the destiny of heaven and cannot be stopped by ordinary people."

Mei Yin cut off the ears and nose of the messenger, released him to Zhu Di, and said to him: "Keep your mouth open so that you can tell King Yan what the righteousness of the king and his ministers is." Zhu Di was so angry that he had to Marched from Yangzhou to Nanjing.

In June of the fourth year of Jianwen (1402), Zhu Di captured Nanjing and Emperor Jianwen disappeared.

In July, when Zhu Di became emperor, Mei Yin was still stationed in Huai'an. Zhu Di forced Princess Ningguo to bite off her finger and wrote a letter in blood to send to Mei Yin. After receiving the letter, Mei Yin burst into tears and asked the envoy about the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen. The envoy said: " died."

Mei Yin said: "I should have lived with you since you were born, and died with you after your death, but I will endure it for the time being."

He also followed Huang Yanqing's suggestion, mourned Emperor Jianwen, gave him the posthumous title of Xiaomin, went to the temple to be named Shenzong, and then went to Nanjing.

After arriving in Nanjing, Zhu Di personally greeted him and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Prince Consort."

Mei Yin replied: "Working hard without success, I can only feel ashamed!"

Zhu Di was silent.

After that, Mei Yin's anger could not subside for a long time, and he often had unfair words and expressions. Zhu Di often sent people to sneak into Mei Yin's mansion at night. Mei Yin became even more angry when he noticed it, and the relationship between the two became irreconcilable.

In the second year of Yongle (1404), Chen Ying, the censor of the capital, reported that Mei Yin cultivated dead men and colluded with the female scholar Liu to curse Zhu Di.

Zhu Di said: "I will handle it myself."

Therefore, Zhu Di asked the Ministry of Household Affairs to assess the number of ceremonial attendants of the dukes, marquises, princes-in-law, and uncles, and also sent Jin Yiwei to escort Mei Yin's family to Liaodong.

In October of the third year of Yongle (1405), Mei Yin entered the court. When he was crossing the Da Bridge, he was squeezed into the water by former military governor Tan Shen, Jinyiwei commander Zhao Xi and others, and drowned. However, the two of them reported that Mei Yin threw himself into the water. commit suicide.

Later, the governor's colleague Xu Cheng exposed the matter. Zhu Di was furious and ordered Tan Shen and Zhao Xi to be beheaded and their homes confiscated. He also sent officials to handle Mei Yin's funeral. He was given the posthumous title of Rongding and was granted the title of Yongxinbo.

After Princess Ningguo heard about Mei Yin's death, she thought that Zhu Di had indeed killed him.

So he found Zhu Di, tugged on Zhu Di's clothes and cried loudly, asking him for the whereabouts of Mei Yin.

Zhu Di said: "I will definitely help you find the thief. Don't embarrass yourself anymore."

Soon, Zhu Di appointed Mei Yin's eldest son Mei Shunchang and second son Mei Jingfu as officials, and warned them: "If I hadn't missed your mother, how could you be where you are today?"

He also wrote to the princess: "Although the consort has made mistakes, brother, I will not hold him accountable for the sake of our close family friendship.

I've been very suspicious since hearing about his drowning.

Now the Commander-in-Chief, Xu Cheng, has come to take the initiative. I have rewarded him and executed the person who conspired to murder the Prince Consort. I have specially informed my sister. "

In the twelfth month of the third year of Yongle, Yichou granted the title of Princess Ning.

In the tenth month of the fifteenth year of Yongle's reign, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty gave Princess Ning 10,000 ingots of colorful coins and sixty pieces of gold.

In November of the 22nd year of Yongle, Renshen was granted the title of eldest princess of Ning Kingdom.

In August of the ninth year of Xuande, the princess passed away at the age of seventy-one.
