After Hong Xiuquan established his capital in Tianjing, there was only one man inside and outside his Heavenly King's Mansion, and that was Hong Xiuquan himself.Hong Xiuquan did not allow any man to approach him, even all the guards were women.Because women are loyal by nature, while men are ambitious.But Hong Xiuquan's punishment for women is also very cruel. He has "ten things to beat". And so on, all constituted the reason for being beaten.In other words, Hong Xiuquan lived alone in the deep palace and beat these girls every day. His strange personality may also have something to do with his food.According to Hong Xiuquan's son who was captured later, Hong Xiuquan ate strangely. He didn't like to eat noodles from the north, nor rice from the south. He liked to eat big centipedes.Hong Xiuquan ordered people to catch centipedes everywhere, and after they were caught, they were fried and fed to him. Eating such strange things every day might also affect a person's temperament.

Later, his subordinates found a beautiful woman surnamed Chen for him.

Chen's marriage to Zeng Guofan also caused a disturbance in the Hunan army, because everyone regarded him as a saint, but he actually found a beautiful woman, which is too incompatible with the status of a saint! However, Zeng Guofan was destined not to enjoy the warmth of a woman. Unexpectedly, after the Chen family married, he immediately vomited blood, and died two years after vomiting blood.Zeng Guofan was very depressed, he pursued love in vain, and actually pursued a female patient. In his later years, Zeng Guofan was already highly respected and became a true saint recognized by the empire.But suddenly he didn't want to be a saint anymore, he still wanted to find a beautiful woman.But who can help him find it?his son.Zeng Guofan asked his son to help him find a beautiful woman in Suzhou, who should be gentle and good-tempered.After his son received his father's letter, he immediately showed the letter to Mrs. Ouyang, Zeng Guofan's wife.Mrs. Ouyang was furious after seeing it, and the whole family immediately set off to settle accounts with Zeng Guofan.
