What kind of person was Princess Huayang who fell in love with Gao Jianli in history?

The love story between knight errant swordsman Gao Jianli and Princess Huayang, the daughter of King Ying Zheng of Qin. In this story, the heroine Princess Huayang is both gentle and martial, and Gao Jianli praises her sword skills. Is there Princess Huayang in history? If so, is she as free and unrestrained as in the book? The answer to the first question is that Princess Huayang does exist in history, and she is indeed the daughter of King Ying Zheng of Qin. Second, we have to say no, how can a woman born in the court freely choose her own destiny.

Ying Yuanman, the princess of Huayang, is the eldest daughter of the first emperor of Qin Dynasty. Compared with her brothers, Hu Hai, the second emperor of Qin Dynasty, and Fu Su, the eldest son of Ying Zheng, she is indeed an insignificant corner in history. In terms of her other sisters, Huayang is not lucky though she has left a lot in history. According to historical records, she is one of the favorite children of the first emperor of Qin Dynasty. As the eldest daughter of a monarch, she has status, wealth, and beauty handed down to later generations. This also foreshadowed her marriage to General Wang Jian.

Her story has no beginning and end. The only record is in the 23rd year of the first emperor. At that time, Ying Zheng was only the king of Qin, and he was not called the first emperor. Compared with other countries, the greatest advantage of the king of Qin is the good general of Qin. If we count in detail, in the short years of Qin's existence, most of the famous generals we can think of worked for Qin, and most of the rest had an opponent who belonged to Qin. They were remembered by later generations. As for the one related to Princess Huayang, it's Wang Jian, who is familiar to all.

According to historical records, in the 23rd year of the first emperor, Li Xin was defeated in his crusade against the state of Chu. At that time, as a general, Wang Jian was cultivating at home. Later, people had different opinions on whether he was self-cultivation or threatened Ying Zheng with the strike. It is only recorded in the historical books that King Ying Zheng of Qin came to the place where Wang Jian complained of his illness with the award seal in his hand and secretly discussed with him for a long time with 600000 military power. The king of Qin must have paid some price. Three days later, Wang Jian set out from Pinyang and took his army to Chu.

Princess Huayang stepped on the stage at this time. Wang Jian started from Pinyang, and the imperial edict of Ying Zheng, king of Qin, came down at this time. He asked his favorite eldest daughter to marry Wang Jian, which seems to be an ordinary way to win over the powerful officials, but we need to know that Wang Jian was already a half old man at that time, while Princess Huayang was upright and young. Ying Zheng, the king of Qin, issued an imperial edict to let her marry down. With hundreds of beauties and his wealth in the palace, he went out from Xianyang to meet or catch up with Wang Jian.

The wedding of the two men was finally held on the way of marching. It was in the tent of the army. On the carriage, the most respected Princess of the state of Qin married the most capable general of the king of Qin. It seemed that she was talented and well matched. It was a familiar political marriage. In fact, Ying Zheng used his daughter's youth to please the old man to change the world. This may be his favorite.
