Brief introduction of Wang Zhaojun's life

Wang Zhaojun was born in Baoping Village, Zigui County, Nanjun County in 52 BC, which is now Zhaojun Village, Xingshan County, Hubei Province. In the third year of Yong 'an (AD 260), Sun Xiu, Emperor Jingdi, divided the northern boundary of Zigui into Xingshan County, Xiangxi as the city boundary and Qiang as the local people, so Yunzhaojun was the county. His father, the king and his eldest daughter are regarded as the apple of his eye, and his brother and sister-in-law also love him very much. Wang Zhaojun was born beautiful and intelligent, and his piano, chess, calligraphy and painting were all exquisite. "There is nothing in Emei, which can make flowers ashamed of the forest." Zhaojun's peerless talents spread all over Nanjun and Beijing along Xiangxi River. In 36 BC, Emperor Hanyuan showed the world that all women in the world should choose. Wang Zhaojun is the first choice of Nanjun. Yuan Di wrote to order him to enter Beijing some other day. Her father, Mao Yunwang, said, "My daughter is too young to obey her orders." But it's hard to disobey the sacred command. In the mid-spring of 36 BC, Wang Zhaojun left his parents and villagers in tears, boarded the carved dragon and phoenix official ship Shunxiangxi, entered the Yangtze River, crossed the Hanshui River and crossed the Qinling Mountains. It lasted for three months and arrived in the capital Chang 'an in the same year, waiting for a letter. After Wang Zhaojun entered the palace, he refused to bribe the painter because of his beauty, so Mao made some flaws in her portrait. Zhaojun was banished to the cold palace for three years and had no chance to see him. In 33 BC, Uhaanyehe, the leader of the Northern Xiongnu, came to the Han Dynasty on his own initiative, surrendered to the Han Dynasty and asked for a kiss to form a friendship. Emperor Han Yuan summoned the concubines in the harem as much as possible, and Wang Zhaojun stepped forward and responded generously. Yuan Di heard that there was such a beautiful person in the harem who wanted to keep it, but it was hard to break his word. He gave her twenty-eight thousand brocade, sixteen thousand catties of cotton wool, jade and other valuables, and personally delivered them to Chang 'an for more than ten miles. Surrounded by teams of chariots and horses, Wang Zhaojun shouldered the heavy responsibility of approaching Han and Hungary. It took more than a year to leave Chang 'an, Tongguan, the Yellow River and Yanmen, and arrived in Mobei in the early summer of the following year. He was warmly welcomed by the Xiongnu people and was named "Hu Ning E Shi".

After Zhaojun left the fortress, the two ethnic groups of Han and Hungary were United and harmonious, and the country was prosperous and peaceful. "Border towns are closed, cattle and horses are wild, dogs in the third world bark without warning, and Li Shu forgets to fight", showing a thriving scene of peace. In 3 1 BC, Uhaanyehe died, leaving a son named Yituzhi. Later, the Huns chased the son of heaven. At that time, Wang Zhaojun put the overall situation first and endured great grievances. According to the Xiongnu custom of "father dies, wife is stepmother", he married Huhanye's eldest son who was tired of carving Tamoga, and gave birth to two more daughters. The name of the eldest daughter must be second, and the name of the second daughter should be second. In 20 BC, Khan died after replanting, and Zhaojun was widowed. A year later, Wang Zhaojun, a 33-year-old peerless beauty, died and was buried in the southern suburbs of Hohhot, next to the tomb of Daqingshan and the Yellow River. Later, people called it "Qingling Mausoleum". Wang Zhaojun, Xi, Shi, and Diophantine are called the four beauties in China. Wang Zhaojun was forced to marry Attila and his son one after another. After she married the Huns, she couldn't wait to put up a sign and asked to return to Han. Emperor Han Cheng coldly rejected Zhao Jun's request for return and died in Xiongnu at the age of 33.

Wang Zhaojun was chosen as a "good family" in the Han and Yuan Dynasties. At that time, Xie Han was called to North Korea, and Emperor Han Yuan gave it to five women. Wang Zhaojun entered the palace for several years, but he didn't see the royal family, and he resented it. He asked the court to order him to do it. The emperor told Xie Han to leave the meeting and called five women to perform. Zhao Jun's "rich and beautiful ornaments, Ming Han Palace, wandering, walking" saw that he was frightened, wanted to keep it, and it was difficult to break his word, so he married the Xiongnu. "("were "volume eighty-nine" biography of the southern huns ")

Zhaojun entered the palace Wang Zhaojun was born in the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, an ordinary local family named Zigui (now Xingshan County, Hubei Province). In the first year of Zhao Jian, Emperor of the Han and Yuan Dynasties, Wang Zhaojun was selected to enter the palace after collecting beautiful women from all over the world. At that time, Emperor Han Yuan was over 40 years old, and he was weak due to indulgence. Although Wang Zhaojun lives a luxurious life, he is just a bird in a cage and a fish in a pond. There are three thousand beauties in the emperor's harem. It's Wang Zhaojun's turn. I don't know when, even if it's his turn, what can he do? Wang Zhaojun may also get lost in the harem. But a diplomatic incident changed Wang Zhaojun's life. This matter should start with the biggest enemy of the Han Dynasty, the Huns.

When Emperor Gaozu Xuan Di proclaimed himself emperor, civil strife broke out in the Xiongnu, and the five khans were divided and attacked each other endlessly. One of them, Uhaanyehe, was defeated by other khans and fled to the Han Dynasty, where he personally appeared before the Emperor Xuan Di. Known as Shaanxi, it is the first Shan Yu in the Central Plains. Emperor Xuan Di personally went to the outskirts of Chang 'an to meet him and held a grand banquet for him. Uhaanyehe lived in Chang 'an for more than a month. When he came back, Xuan Di sent two generals to lead ten thousand people to escort him to Monan. At that time, the Huns were short of food, and Emperor Xuandi of Emperor Gaozu sent 34,000 stones of food. Uhaanyehe is very grateful. Seeing that the Han Dynasty was so kind to Uhaanyehe, all countries in the western regions scrambled to deal with the Han Dynasty.

After Xuan Di's death, his son Liu succeeded to the throne, that is, Emperor Hanzhao called Wang Zhaojun into the palace. At this time, Uhaanyehe had a good relationship with the Han Dynasty. In 33 BC, Uhaanyehe went to Chang 'an again, and this time he asked for intimacy. The proposal of "pro-marriage" was first put forward by Lou Jingde during the reign of Emperor Gaozu. The situation at that time was that the Xiongnu was strong and the Han was weak, and Lv Hou had only one daughter, so he couldn't bear to marry far away. Therefore, Qin always chooses an emperor's daughter to marry as a princess. But this time, Emperor Han Yuan decided to choose a maid of honor for him. The reason may be that the Han Dynasty was stronger than the Xiongnu in the Han and Yuan Dynasties, and it was not necessary to choose the daughter of royalty. After all, there are not many daughters of royalty, but there are many maids. Moreover, Uhaanyehe was in Chang 'an at this time, and let his daughter pretend to be a princess. How can such a big thing be fooled by him?

In other words, Emperor Han Yuan sent a message to the harem. The ladies in the palace are like birds in cages, all vying to go out. But when they heard that they were going to the Huns in the desert, their enthusiasm suddenly disappeared. Wang Zhaojun, unwilling to be a white-headed maid, resolutely pleaded and volunteered to go to Xiongnu. Legend has it that many stories happened here, such as the story of the painter Mao Yanshou, but most of them were added by later generations, but it also shows the importance of this pro-event from the side.

"Zhaojun's departure from the fortress" is an important event in Sino-Hungarian exchanges. It is recorded in the History of Han Dynasty, Biography of Xiongnu and Biography of Southern Xiongnu, especially in the History of Han Dynasty: "Zhaojun is beautiful in character, and the people in Nanjun are also famous. At the beginning, in Yuan Di, he was elected to the court because of his good family. At that time, Xie Han was called to Korea, and the emperor gave it to five maids. How old was Zhao Jun when he entered the palace? He was not allowed to see the royal family, and he accumulated sadness and resentment. He asked the court to order him to do it. Called to leave the meeting, the emperor called five women to show that Zhaojun was rich, Ming Han Palace, Gu Gui, moved around. Seeing that he was frightened, the emperor wanted to keep it, but it was hard to break his word, so he agreed to the Xiongnu. Have two sons. When Xie Han died, E Shi's son wanted his wife on his behalf. Zhaojun wrote a letter asking him to come back. The emperor ordered him to follow Hu's custom, so he returned. " In this paper, Zhao Jun's automatic journey, Yuan Di's "intentional stay" for Zhao Jun's beauty and other stories are very vivid, which vividly show Zhao Jun's beauty on paper. [3]

After Wang Zhaojun, who lived beyond the Great Wall, arrived in Xiongnu, he was very affectionate with Uhaanyehe, and was named "Hu Ning E Shi". He gave birth to a son for Uhaanyehe, named wise dentist, and was named the son of heaven and wished the king. In the third year of marriage, namely 3 1 year BC, Uhaanyehe died.

E Shi's eldest son Diao Dao Mogao inherited Khan's position. According to the custom of Xiongnu, Wang Zhaojun became the wife of Diao Tamoga. Young Khan is more sympathetic to Wang Zhaojun, and the life of husband and wife is very loving and sweet. They gave birth to two daughters in succession, the eldest named Yun and the second named Dang, and later married the Xiongnu nobles respectively.

Diao Tao Mogao and Wang Zhaojun died after eleven years of husband and wife life. At this time, it was the year of Emperor Hongjiayuan of Hanjing. Wang Zhaojun is thirty-five years old, which is the glorious prime of life. There was no need to get married, so he took part in the political activities of Xiongnu in his spare time, which really produced a lot of communication and reconciliation for the friendly relationship between Xiongnu and Hanting!

Wang Zhaojun's brother was made a marquis by the imperial court, and he was ordered to meet his sister in Xiongnu for many times. Wang Zhaojun's two daughters once served Empress Dowager Cixi, namely Wang Zhengjun, the empress of the Han Dynasty. She has a famous nephew, Wang Mang, who first succumbed to the corporal to gain a false reputation, and then played a so-called "abdication system" in the Yao, Shun and Yu era, seized the Western Han regime and established a "new dynasty", but Xiongnu Khan thought, "If you are not a descendant of Liu, how can you be the emperor of China?" So the frontiers are one after another, and the troubles are endless.

Seeing that the peaceful years he created were destroyed, Wang Zhaojun died in bitterness and despair and was buried in the south bank of the river. The cemetery is still there. It is said that the grass outside the Great Wall is yellow after autumn, but the grass on Wang Zhaojun's tomb is green, so it is called "Qingling".

There is another explanation about "Qinghai-Tibet": "Clouds are broad and blue": "Wang Zhaojun's tomb has no vegetation, but from a distance, it is covered with indigo naturalis, so it is called Yunqingzang." "Journey to the North" also said: "There are many white sands outside the Great Wall, and the air reflects them. Where there are mountains and villages, the sky has no color. If you pour thick ink, Zhaojun's tomb is hazy and distant, so it is called Qinghai-Tibet. "

There are many poems that always refer to "Qingling". For example, Bai Juyi's "No green grave, pedestrians pour wine." Du Mu's "Water flows in front of Qingyi, and clouds fall in Yanzhishan." Du Fu's "She went out of the Purple Palace into the desert, and now she has become a green grave in the twilight"

Fortunately, the male and female servants were forbidden, saying that by relying on the sun and the moon, death is fragrant. And frustrated Danqing, far away in a foreign country, sincerely sacrificed to the Lord, how dare you feel sorry for yourself? Only cherish the intervention of the state, jump to cheap jobs and look at the customs of the Han nationality in the south. If you have a father and brother, your majesty is fortunate to have less pity.

I have the honor of being chosen as your majesty's harem beauty. I thought I could give my body to your majesty after I died and leave my name. Unexpectedly, I was retaliated by the painter Mao Yanshou, so I had to marry the Xiongnu in a foreign country and sincerely repay your kindness. How dare he feel sorry for himself? Now I only regret that the Huns are unpredictable and Khan is dead. I can only empathize with the humble skills of female workers to kill time and watch the border of the Han Dynasty go south every day, which can only aggravate my sadness in vain. My hometown has my father and brother. I can only hope that your majesty will show mercy and let me return to the Han dynasty!

When Zhao Jun went out to visit relatives in the frontier, he looked at the yellow sand all over the sky and flew alone in the south. No sigh, infinite sadness, so I played the pipa. A song "Journey to the Frontier" is filled with nostalgia and a trace of missing, and the sound makes people cry, while the geese flying in the south look at the amazing woman and listen to the plaintive piano sound, and land on the flat beach, becoming the eternal swan song of "Wild geese in Pingsha".
