Where did the four ancient beauties come from?

Shi, whose real name is Shi Yiguang, was born in Zhuluo Village (now Zhuluo Village, Zhuji City, Zhejiang Province) at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period. She has been playing with her mother by the river since she was a child, so she is also called "the girl who plays with yarn".

Wang Zhaojun (about 52 BC-BC 19) was born in Zigui (now Xingshan County, Yichang City, Hubei Province), and is also known as the four beauties in ancient China with the stories of Dixin, Shi and Shi.

The story of diusim comes from Xinzhou, Shanxi. She was a singer of Stuart Wang Yun in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. She is very beautiful and has a charming appearance. Seeing that the Eastern Han Dynasty was manipulated by treacherous court official Dong Zhuo, she burned incense and prayed under the moon, willing to share her worries with her master.

Yang Yuhuan was born in Yongle, Zhou Pu (now Yongji, Shaanxi) and was the imperial concubine of Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. Yang is gorgeous, good at singing and dancing, and has a smooth melody. As a court musician and singer in the Tang Dynasty, his musical talent is rare among the queens of past dynasties.

The four beauties in ancient China were Shi, Wang Zhaojun and Diophantine, and they enjoyed the reputation of "sinking fish and falling geese, closing the moon and feeling ashamed of flowers". The arrangement of the four beauties in ancient China is: stone first, Wang Zhaojun second, dixin story third and finally, but this is only an ancient arrangement. Stone is the embodiment and pronoun of beauty.

The "four beauties" in the history of China are not only known to women and children in China, but also enjoy a certain reputation in the world. For thousands of years, people have described the stories of Shi, Wang Zhaojun, Diusim and Yang Guifei with "sinking fish and falling geese, closing the moon and feeling ashamed of flowers", which are vivid and implicit, leaving people with sufficient imagination space.

These eight words alone contain four short stories with romanticism, which fully embodies the rich connotation of China traditional culture. The four beauties seem to fall in love with the whole country. In major historical events, their legendary stories of twists and turns, saving the country and the people were widely sung by the ancient people.
