Some people may say that the advantages of peace and affinity outweigh the disadvantages, and in their view, peace and affinity are conducive to easing ethnic contradictions and promoting economic and cultural exchanges. For Huaxia, just sacrificing a royal woman and a small dowry can maintain the security of the border for many years, why not? If there is a change in the leader of the ethnic minority, the princess can gain insight in advance and notify the country, which is simply a high-level work placed abroad. For ethnic minorities, the dowry of princesses often means wealth and advanced civilization, for example, the dowry of Princess Wencheng included a large number of medical and scientific books, musical instruments, silk silks and grain seeds, which had a huge effect on the agriculture, textile industry, medical treatment and culture of Tibet.

But the princess was sent out, but if she married the princess of Heqin, the leader of the ethnic minority would be drunk and lying on the knees of the beauty, and would no longer invade the Central Plains? In fact, it all depends on the character, temperament and military strength of the leaders of the ethnic minorities, and harmony is not a panacea.

In fact, marrying his own daughter to a barbarian is something that no emperor wants to do, and the pampered princesses may not be able to meet the mission of being a princess. Therefore, the emperor of the Central Plains also has his own countermeasures, many times they make peace with foreign clans after the daughter of the royal family, or even the palace maid is crowned as a princess, and they have a little royal blood, and their hearts are not so painful, which is naturally excellent. Therefore, the princesses of Sui and the middle of the Tang Dynasty were all clan daughters, not real princesses. After the middle of the Tang Dynasty, the national strength declined, and the Uighurs sought the true princess and relatives, hoping to get more silk silk to marry and gain better bargaining chips in the silk horse trade. And Datang's bargaining power deteriorated, so he had to accompany Princess Ningguo, Princess Xian'an and Princess Taihe.

The reason why these poor people live a miserable life is not only because they have to leave home thousands of miles away and marry in a foreign land, but more importantly, these poor people have the mission of making peace for the rest of their lives, because if her husband dies, there are other men waiting for her to continue to marry until death. For example, Wang Zhaojun's classmate of the Han Dynasty, when she went to the Xiongnu to make peace with Huhan Evil Shan Yu, she reported her bravery, and she ranked last among the five wives and concubines of Hu Han Evil Shan Yu, and had a son.

After Hu Han Xie Shan Yu hung up, Zhaojun wanted to return to China, Emperor Han Cheng ordered him to "follow the Hu custom", and then remarry Hu Han Xie Shan Yu's son Fu Zhu Ruo Shan Yu, so he had two daughters, and finally died in a foreign land. The same is true of the Sui and Tang dynasties, when the princess wanted to return to China after the death of a husband, the emperor of the Central Plains would refuse in most cases with "following the customs".

Yang Ruoxi in Li Zheng's arms is not like this, she first married Murong Shifu on the order of Emperor Wen of Sui, and then married Murong Shifu's younger brother Murong Fuyun after Murong Shifu hung up, doesn't she want to go back to the Central Plains, no, it is because the emperor of the Central Plains does not recall her for a day, she can only stay in this Saiwai Plateau, even if she dies, she can only go abroad........

Of course, from the point of view of future generations, since there is no shortage of female partners among minority leaders, why should stepmothers continue to serve their stepsons? If the woman is already old, what sparks can the two of them have? I'm afraid it's just a waste of food in the harem.

In the final analysis, this kind of stepmarriage is considered binding by these nomadic tribes to be extramarital. They believe that a woman who marries into her clan not only belongs to her husband's family, but also to the clan to which her husband belongs. If the husband dies, his wife marries elsewhere, which will cause the clan to lose its financial resources and labor, and the acceptance of stepmarriage can bind it to the clan, so the inheritance of the marriage is a form of transfer and variation of property inheritance. With this logic, since a woman is a kind of property, of course, just like real estate, it is inherited, used and maintained by brothers and heirs, which is both a right and an obligation (this sentence makes us modern people shudder, women are actually commodities and property in the eyes of these barbarians).

Some of these poor people died after serving only one generation of nomadic leaders, so the system of stepmarriage had no effect on them. The princesses who married two generations of nomadic chiefs recorded in the history books include Princess Huarong and Princess Guanghua of the Sui Dynasty, Princess Xiaoningguo, Princess Gu'an, and Princess Donghua of the Tang Dynasty; The princesses who have married four ethnic minority leaders include Princess Yicheng of the Sui Dynasty and Princess Xian'an of the Tang Dynasty.

The most powerful of the princesses should be Princess Ningguo, one of the princesses of the Tang Dynasty. As the biological daughter of Tang Suzong, this girl had been married twice in China before going to the Uighur Heqin, both of which had ended up being widowed, and went to marry in the image of a widow of Kefu, but the Uighurs did not refuse. Sure enough, in the second year of marriage, Princess Ningguo's husband Yingwu Weiyuan Khan hung up (Khan~~~), and Princess Ningguo successfully returned to China after a struggle, leaving Princess Ningguo who married with her to marry the next Uighur Khan. This should be the fastest one to come back among the princesses, what a winner in life.

The most bitter is naturally Princess Yicheng and Princess Xian'an, who are married to four husbands. Princess Xian'an married four Uighur khans: Changshou Tianqin (1 year), Zhongzhen (son of Changshou Tianqin) (3 months), Fengcheng (Zhongzhen son) (5 years), and Huaixin (10 years). Marrying the three grandchildren was naturally very embarrassing, but fortunately, the first few did not live long, so that life was not so sad, and finally Princess Xian'an died in the Uighurs. As a true princess (Tang Dezong's biological daughter), to this extent, she has done her best. Some people say that during this period, the Tang Dynasty united with the Uighurs to break the Tibetan Dynasty, which was the credit of Princess Xian'an. Personally, I feel that although Princess Xian'an was helpful to the Uighurs in their friendship with the Tang Dynasty, there is not enough historical data to show that she had such a great influence. If it is said that it is because of the interests of the silk horse trade that the Tang Dynasty and the Uighurs join hands, it is more practical.

In contrast, Princess Yoshinari is definitely an influential person. Princess Yicheng lived in the Turks for nearly 30 years, and successively married Qimin Khan (10 years), Shibi Khan (10 years), Chuluo Khan (2 years), and Jieli Khan (10 years) (the latter three were all sons of Qimin Khan). For such a long period of time, passively dividing equally among different men may be extremely painful for ordinary women, but Princess Yicheng completely held the situation and has always been the person with the right to speak around the Turkic Khan.

To live like Princess Yicheng and Princess Xian'an, how strong their hearts are, the question is what choice they have? Who made their lives miserable and became princesses of harmony?

After thinking about it so much, Li Zheng can only be a flower messenger who pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade, although this flower, well, is already a third-hand product, but he doesn't dislike it, hehe, he gently wiped Yang Ruoxi's tears, and then said, "If you regret your sister, if you want to cry, just cry recklessly, crying will make you feel better......." Yang Ruoxi glanced at the young man holding him with tears in her eyes, and couldn't help crying even more fiercely, "Woo woo, why, why, why did you appear...... I was born before I was born, and I am old when you were born" This princess Xiaomi has the meaning .......of "hating not to meet when you are not married".......

Looking at Yang Ruoxi, who was crying pear blossoms with rain, Li Zheng's heart couldn't help but feel distressed, damn the affinity system, don't want such a affinity system!!
