What happened to the princesses was even worse. Most of them were forced to serve in the palace brothel where they were humiliated and sexually abused for years. Some were given over to sadistic Jin nobelmen who enjoyed torturing the princesses. There are reports of many princesses being tortured and raped to death.
As a European with little knowledge of Asian history, it's always a pleasure to get a notification from your channel because I know that I'm going to discover historical figures that I didn't know existed and that will "force" me to read about new history topics (Song dynasty, etc.). 😃
Humiliated yet praised for her resilience she's an embodiment of not only resilience and purity but women strength as well that a lot of women in our time threw away choosing stupidity and foolish pride that they strongly believe and other women should follow their example
@@soumya5832 her reputation was already trampled. What she fought for that time is herself or what had remained of her dignity. She was stripped naked in front of people yet she refused to marry her enemy but to what I understood is she refused to sell herself which was already humiliated and it's even more humiliating if she went and married the bastard who humiliated and trampled her
I happened to find this channel. Needless to say, stories uploaded on this channel are interesting, but more than that, your voice is so soothing! I like it.
and then later when yuefei was close to defeating the jin army again, the stupid emperor once again listened to the corrupted officials and summoned him back before executing him and then suing for peace with the jin again lol.
She is the example that being a woman and being femenine is being pure, stick on women's principle of chastity, honour and pureness, and devoting to honorable causes.
It's the same everywhere Human fight and create their country Over time generations become weak due to comfort Look at US now They digging big hole by ownself Matter of time become history
@@averykleon This is all based on the Accounts of Jingkang, which are widely considered to be reputable historical documents. So I don't understand which part of this doesn't make sense, because this is what historians say happened.
Wow, this is beyond humiliating. So glad you shared this story.
Very hurtful indeed.

Thank you :) Happy to share with you!
That’s horrible that she had to endure that.

Humiliation is woman's virtue and duty, so it's normal for woman to endure that.
Well even in her case it's pride ...for women eduring that is equal to murder ... reputation of women was very important in those times

@@aguinayajolly6565 Exactly so, it certainly wasn;t any form of pride but her dignity and self respect
Exactly.

Fascinating, thank you from Tokyo.
Thank you :)
This must have been around the time that Li Qingzhao was writing her melancholy poems?
Yes it is.. Sadly after the Northern Song dynasty fell, she had to fled to another place and her husband died of illness afterwards
Ty!
She is the example that being a woman and being femenine is being pure, stick on women's principle of chastity, honour and pureness, and devoting to honorable causes.
That was sad she shouldn't have married her foolish husband
She doubtless had little choice.
The jurchens became the manchus who conquered china in 1630s
Great story
Can you do the japanese harem hierarchy
Sure i will look into it :)
Jin is ancestors of Manchu which was Mongol speaking tribe. They were always fierce fighters.
Jin were related to Jurchen so not quite - There Is Actually A Huge History of Animosity Between Mongols and Manchurians 😒😒😒
@@tablestirne9879 the jins are the jurchens
foolish song dynasty emperors. corrupted officials. weak army.
In a way, they saved a lot of their people. The much stronger Jin were virtually genocide by the mongols further north.
It's the same everywhere
Human fight and create their country
Over time generations become weak due to comfort
Look at US now
They digging big hole by ownself
Matter of time become history
👍
And then came Genghis khan for jin dynasty.
his is why Chinese build wall...

Your story didn't make sense.
What didn't make sense?
@Fray2221 Give me the transcript and I will tell you one by one which ones are not making sense.

@@Fray2221 The English translation doesn't make sense.
Al español tampoco es bueno. Es error seguramente, de donde se traduce 😢. Lástima porque se pierde todo el sentido de lo que cuenta😢.
