In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, the aristocratic class structure of the Ming Empire changed after the Battle of Jingnan. Xu Miaojin was the youngest daughter of Wei Duke Xu Da. At the beginning of Yongle, because her sister Queen Xu was in poor health and the emperor was still in her prime, she gradually felt that her life would soon be exhausted. Queen Xu wanted her sister Xu Miaojin to enter the palace to replace herself as the new queen of Emperor Yongle.
Empress Xu has always had a good relationship with Emperor Yongle. This decision was made out of the marriage of her sister, and she also hoped that Emperor Yongle would treat his sister like himself. What was helpless was Xu Miaojin's hysterical resistance to her sister's good intentions. The reason was that during the Jingnan Campaign, Emperor Yongle had planned to kill his brother Xu Zuhui, but later gave up due to the strong dissuasion of Xu Miaojin and Queen Xu, but he still insisted on depriving Xu Zuhui of his title.
It is precisely because of this that no matter how Emperor Yongle pursued Xu Miaojin, Xu Miaojin still thought that he was the person he hated the most. Unlike other nobles, Xu Miaojin puts his family first in his heart. Emperor Yongle accidentally touched his bottom line, and it was after that incident that the Xu family, which was once prosperous, gradually declined, and was eventually dismembered by Emperor Yongle.
Xu Miaojin's rejection of the emperor's love naturally aroused strong resentment from her sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhou. In order to avoid Emperor Yongle, Xu Miaojin sent an envoy to Japan with Zheng He, and then accompanied the Mu family to conquer Annan.
