Ma Huanghou was the husband and wife of Zhu Yuanzhang before he ascended the throne. Ma Huanghou's life experience is very good, and she is very smart. She is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is very stubborn. Because Ma Huanghou doesn't have foot binding, she is a man of her own mind. The fate between her and Zhu Yuanzhang can be said to have a long history. This should start with Zhu Yuanzhang when he was young. Due to the corruption and incompetence of the rulers at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the people could not even eat a full meal, and Zhu Yuanzhang's parents starved to death. Zhu Yuanzhang was self-reliant since he was a child. He did a lot of hard work, spared the cattle to others and became a monk begging. So Zhu Yuanzhang's childhood life can be said to be very painful.
Zhu Yuanzhang's good days began when he joined the rebel army. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang took refuge in Guo Zixing's door, and Ma Huanghou was Guo Zixing's adopted daughter. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was a soldier, but he fell in love with Ma Huanghou. At that time, the achievement gap did not hinder their love, and Ma Huanghou did not abandon Zhu Yuanzhang, so they got married. Zhu Yuanzhang married a bodyguard's adopted daughter, so his position in the rebel army was improved, so his fate was changed because of Ma Huanghou.
After Guo Zixing's death, Zhu Yuanzhang took over the political power. Because Ma Huanghou is very clever and often gives advice to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Huanghou have a very good relationship. And as a queen, she really did the mother instrument, so Zhu Yuanzhang loved Ma Huanghou very much.
