      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.

    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

    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.). 😃

      4 betraying the Jurchens at Jingkang Incident n thus has caused all the tragedies , 4 has sent his own empress (women as shield) as prisoner of war INSTEAD of himself (truly coward as a man) , & 4 has been an utterly selfish idiot .

    Ppl MUST focus on the causes of fallen Song dynasty .
    WhoSe mistakes n why .
    NOT about the tortures n humiliations AfteR .
    Explaining about the tortures n humiliations FOLLOWING the fall of Song Dynasty ,
    is like explaining the great sorrows of Nazi & Japan's armies n their family after their loss .
    North vietnam's great sorrows , even after US has released them free /given up the war to them .
    Its all their own fault...!!
