Four ancient beauties, 300 words.

The story of four beauties in ancient China, namely, Shi, Wang Zhaojun, Diophantine and He. The four beauties enjoy the reputation of "sinking fish and falling geese, closing the moon and putting flowers to shame".

"It's a historical allusion composed of wonderful stories to sink a fish and fall into a wild goose and close the moon and feel ashamed of flowers". "Sinking Fish" tells the story of stone's yarn-washing. "Wild Goose" refers to the story of Zhao Jun leaving the fortress, and "Closed Moon" tells the story of Diusim and Yue Bai. "Shame on Flowers" tells the story of the imperial concubine who was drunk and looked at flowers.

Among the four beauties, except for the story of Diusim, they are all characters recorded in the official history, while the story of Diusim has only been seen in novels and plays, but not in history books.

The four beauties in ancient China are the stories of Shi, Wang Zhaojun and Diusim, enjoying 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.

No one is perfect, and beautiful women have defects.

Legend has it that the stone is bigfoot.

It should be obvious that the story of diusim has one big eye and one small eye. Although everyone's eyes are big and small, it's obvious that you can't tell them, but the story estimated by Diusim is quite obvious.

Wang Zhaojun is a shoulder with high and low shoulders.

Yang Guifei degenerated after drinking and had underarm odor, but her skin was smooth and delicate rather than dull due to drinking, and she was good at dancing, which won the favor of Xuanzong.

Brief introduction of editor Shi

Shi, whose real name is Yiguang, is from Zhuluo Village, Zhuji, Zhejiang. Xi is one of the four beauties in ancient China, also known as Xi Zi. Born beautiful. At that time, the state of Yue was a vassal state of Wu, and Gou Jian, the king of Yue, tried to revive the country. When the country was in trouble, Shi endured humiliation and saved the country with his own body. Together with Zheng Dan, he was introduced to Fu Cha, the king of Yue, and became the favorite concubine of the king of Wu who conquered Yue in chaos.

Shi Yiguang lives in Yue State.

Treacherous court official Wu Wang destroyed Wu, but the notoriety was on stone. Back in those days, that Hu Shui rolled and sounded like a beautiful woman. Zhuluo Mountain faces Huansha River, where there are Huansha stones. It is said that Xi Shi often washes gauze here, hence the name Xi Shi Beach. Shi was born beautiful, and her talent is unparalleled. According to legend, even the morbidness of frowning and caressing the chest was imitated by neighbors, so there was an allusion of "learning from the east". In the third year of Gou Jian, the King of Yue (494 BC), Fu Cha defeated the State of Yue in Fujiao (now southwest of Wuxian County, Jiangsu Province). Gou Jian, the King of Yue, retreated to Huiji Mountain (now south of Shaoxing, Zhejiang), was besieged by Wu Jun, and was forced to make peace with Wu, where Gou Jian became a hostage. After his release, Gou Jian presented Wu Jiuce with literary talent, the most vicious of which was the honey trap, in view of the weakness of Wu Wang's lewdness. And design together: "Linpu Zhuluoshan female stone," ready to give to the king of Wu. Dr. Fan Li was ordered to tour the country to investigate beautiful women. He came to Zhuluo Village and met a pair of sisters and Shi. He loves peace and history more. In a misunderstanding at a masked ball, he confided his true feelings to Shi, and Shi fell in love with this Fan Lang. However, the arrival of this romantic and touching love ended. He brought Heshi back to Huiji for singing and dancing, and prepared to dedicate it to Fu Cha, the king of Wu. [2] King Yue's favorite maid-in-waiting thinks: "A real beauty must have three conditions, one is beauty, the other is being good at singing and dancing, and the third is posture." History only has the first condition, but it lacks the other two conditions. So the King of Yue spent three years teaching song and dance, dance steps and manners.

Xi Shi works hard, dances in melodious music, is elegant and charming, and then trains etiquette. She became a well-trained maid-in-waiting, and showed the beauty of her body, and treated people very appropriately. Then, he made her a magnificent palace dress and presented it to the king of Wu. Prince Fu Cha was overjoyed. He built spring night Palace in Gusu, a large pool with a dragon boat in it. He played with the stone and built pavilions for it to sing, dance and feast, such as pavilions and mourning halls. Shi is good at dancing, and Fu Cha specially built a "noisy corridor" for her, which contains hundreds of dye vats, wooden boards and stones.

According to legend, after Wu's death, he and his beloved sailed into Taihu Lake and disappeared. There is also a saying that Wu was drowned in the river after his death. In fact, because there is no clear record in the history books, the whereabouts of the stone has always been a mystery. But the popular version is more inclined to the former, so Shi is undoubtedly the happiest of the four beauties. [ 1]

The legend of sinking fish

"When a fish sinks, a wild goose falls" is an idiom, which is usually attributed to Zhuangzi's theory of everything: "Wang Qiang and Li Ji, who knows the true nature of the world?" It means animals can't feel the beauty of people. Some people think that the Song Dynasty sang the poem "Huan Sha Pian" in the Tang Dynasty: "The bird is surprised as a pineapple, and the fish is afraid of the lotus." It is the origin of this idiom, so I think that sinking fish represents beauty.

Stone has the posture of "sinking fish". Shi is a woman who washes gauze. She has regular facial features, pink face and peach blossom, and looks extraordinary. When she was washing gauze by the river, the clear river reflected her delicate figure and made her look more beautiful. According to legend, when the stone was washing gauze by the stream, the fish in the water thought the stone was too beautiful, so they all sank to the bottom in shame and dared not come out. [2]

4 Introduction to Editor-in-Chief Wang Zhaojun

Wang zhaojun

King Zhao Jun of the Western Han Dynasty (52 BC-BC 19)

Wang Zhaojun, surnamed Wang, was born in Zigui, Nanjun (now Xingshan County, Hubei Province). Xiongnu Uhaanyehe E Shi. She was chosen as a "good family" in the Han and Yuan Dynasties. At that time, Xie Han was called to Korea, and the Emperor gave it to five women. Wang Zhaojun entered the palace for several years, but he didn't see the royal family, and he complained bitterly. 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 ")

Wang Zhaojun was born in Baoping Village (now Zhaojun Village, Xingshan County, Hubei Province) in 52 BC. In the third year of Yong 'an (AD 260), Jingdi was enfeoffed to Xingshan County in the north of Zigui, with 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 bid farewell to his parents and villagers, boarded the carved dragon and phoenix official ship Shunxiangxi, entered the Yangtze River and crossed the Qinshan River for three months. In the early summer of the same year, he arrived in the capital Chang 'an for a banquet.

Zhao Sai

Zhao Sai

Wang Zhaojun, whose real name is Chang, was originally a palace maid of the Han Dynasty. In 54 BC, Uhaanyehe, a Hun, was defeated by his brother Zhi Zhi Khan, moved south to Guanglu outside the Great Wall, made friends with the Western Han Dynasty, and entered Chang 'an three times to ask for relatives and friends from Emperor Gaozu. When Wang Zhaojun heard about it, he asked to leave the village for a kiss. When she arrived in Xiongnu, she was named "Hu Ning E Shi" (E Shi, meaning "Queen"), symbolizing that she would bring peace, tranquility and prosperity to Xiongnu. Later, with the support of the Western Han Dynasty, Uhaanyehe took control of the whole territory of Xiongnu, thus making the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty reconciled for half a century.

The legend of geese

During the Han and Yuan Dynasties, there was no peace on the north-south border. In order to appease the Xiongnu in the north, Emperor Han Yuan chose Zhaojun to marry Khan to ensure that the two countries would be reconciled forever. On a crisp autumn day, Zhaojun bid farewell to his native land and set off for the north. Along the way, Ma Si Yan Ming, tore heart crack lung; The feeling of sadness disturbed her. On the mountain, she plucked the strings and played a tragic farewell song. The geese flying south heard the sweet piano and saw the beautiful woman riding a horse. They forgot to flap their wings and fell to the ground. From then on, Zhaojun got the reputation of "Wild Goose". [3]

A brief introduction to the story of 5 Diu Sim editor

Diao Chan

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. Wang Yun saw that Dong Zhuo was going to usurp the Eastern Han Dynasty and set up a series of stratagems. Wang Yunxian secretly promised Lu Bu the story of Diusim, and then Ming dedicated the story of Diusim to Dong Zhuo. Lyu3 bu4 hero boy, Dong Zhuo cunning. In order to win over Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo accepted Lu Bu as his adopted son. Both of them are lecherous. From then on, the story of Diusim moved between them, winking at Lu Bu and rewarding Dong Zhuo's charm. The two of them were fascinated.

After listening to Dong Zhuo's story, Lu Bu was dissatisfied with her throwing her into the house. One day, Lu Bu took Dong Zhuo to court, visited the Story of Diusim in Dong Zhuo's mansion, and invited Feng Yiting to meet him. The story of Diusim met Lu Bu, who pretended to cry and said that he was occupied by Dong Zhuo. Lu Bu was very angry. At this time, Dong Zhuo ran into him when he returned to the office. In a rage, he grabbed Lu Bu's square painting halberd and stabbed it. Lu Bu flew away. After that, the two men were suspicious of each other, and Wang Yun persuaded Lu Bu to eradicate Dong Zhuo. There is Feng Yi Ting in Beijing Opera, which tells this story.

Yue Bai, the story of Desing.

Legend has it that the story of Diesim was born. In three years, the local peach blossom and apricot blossom bloomed and withered. At midnight in Yue Bai, the story of Diusim, Chang 'e was ashamed in the moon and hurried into the clouds; Story Diesim has a beautiful figure, blue ears, swaying willows when walking, and more elegant when quiet. The story of diusim is very wonderful. It is precisely because of this beauty that Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu, who are domineering over power, turned against each other and made the turbulent ruling and opposition parties feel a little peace. But unfortunately, the story of diusim appeared as a maid-in-waiting and retired with the family of the deceased. In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Luo Guanzhong only listed the death of Lu Bu's White Gate Tower, and ended with a sentence "The wife and daughter were transported back to Xudu". Since then, the story of Diesim's life and death has become an eternal mystery. 197 1 Some people saw The Story Of Diu Sim's tomb, but others said it was her daughter's tomb. It can be seen that the statement in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is not credible.

folklore

one

The story of Diusim is the most dazzling female image among the few women in the Three Kingdoms, in which the male is the protagonist. It can be said that it is precisely because of the emergence of the story of Diusim that Wang Situcai skillfully used a series of tricks, which made Lv Fengxian cause a storm in Fengyige. The run-out Dong Zhuo Palace was slaughtered in front of it, and the military commander Lu Bu was killed on the White Gate Tower. The significance of the story of diusim's image is that it successfully shows the courage and wisdom of a stunning woman in a world where all men compete for hegemony. It was this extraordinary courage and high wisdom that accelerated the end of the era of warlord melee at the end of the Han Dynasty and contributed to the rise of heroes such as Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Quan, thus enabling the already stormy Han Dynasty to continue.

However, since the death of Lu Bu's White Gate Tower, this brave strange girl has disappeared. Did you go to Jiuquan with the failed Lu Bu? Or was it brought back to Xuchang by the victorious Cao Cao? This problem has not been solved from the beginning of hegemony to the unification of gold. Is it because the author inadvertently ignored such an important person, or because of some consideration, he consciously avoided talking about it? We have no way to prove it. The author doesn't want to let an admirable strange girl never be heard from again, so he refers to a large number of official novels and unofficial history comments circulating in the society, and finally finds some story clues about the life and ending of Diesim, and records them here as an explanation of his curiosity.

About the origin of diusim's story, unofficial history confessed that his real name was Huo, unknown, a native of Shanxi, and he was a fellow countryman with the famous Guan Yu. She was outstanding and intelligent since she was a child, so she was elected to the Han Palace as the female official in charge of headdress and crown in the palace, so she was called the' Story of Diusim' official. Because of the rebellion of ten regular attendants, he took refuge in the palace and was adopted as his adopted daughter by Stuart Wang Yun, which is the merit of alienating Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu. As for the ending of the story of Diusim, some critics believe that after the death of Lu Bu, the story of Diusim was brought back to Xuchang by Cao Cao and stayed as a maid in the Prime Minister's office. After Guan Yu resigned from Tu Shan temporarily, Cao Cao gave ten beautiful women to please Guan Yu, and the story of Diusim was one of them. Guan Yu heard the story of losing Sim's name, felt his courage, said "yes", then closed his eyes and waved. [4]

Secondly,

As one of the four beauties in ancient China, the story of Diusim is not recorded in ancient books, but there are many descriptions in literary works. In other respects, the story of Dixin is named Du, who is the original wife of Lu Bu of Qin Department. They also have a son named Qin Lang, whose character is Ming, who appeared in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. It is also recorded as one of the important figures in the Wei Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms at the end of Han Dynasty. Because Lyu3 bu4 misbehaves and loves to steal other people's wives, Diusim was forced to marry Lyu3 bu4, and his son Qin Lang followed Lyu3 bu4.

Luo Guanzhong's Romance of the Three Kingdoms further describes and depicts the story of Diesim, which has great influence and the legend is particularly touching. Become a well-known "outstanding woman" and "female Chinese and English". According to the textual research of scholar Mr. Meng Fanren, the character in the novel: the story of Diesim, surnamed Ren, was born in Muer Village, Jiuyuan County, Hezhou City. At the age of 65,438+05, he was elected to the palace to take charge of the crown of Diusim story worn by courtiers (the hat of Han Dynasty attendants) and changed his name to Diusim story. At the end of the Han Dynasty, the court storm suddenly broke out, and the story of Diusim went out of the palace and was adopted by Stuart Wang Yun. Soon Dong Zhuo was authoritarian. Wang Yun took advantage of Dong and Lu's lewdness, so he let Diusim's story play a "serial trick", which eventually prompted Lu Bu to kill Dong Zhuo and made a great contribution. Later, diusim became the story of Lu Bu's concubine. After Lu Bu died in the White Gate Tower, Cao Cao repeated the "serial stratagem" to the Taoyuan brothers and gave it to Guan Yu. In order not to hurt the Taoyuan brothers, Diusim's story was protected by Guan Yu and escaped as a nun. When Cao Cao learned about it, he arrested the story of Diusim, and the story of Diusim fell to his sword and died.

Diusim's hometown is Mu Zhi Village, three kilometers southeast of Xinzhou City, on the way from Taiyuan or Xinzhou to Wang Yudong. Mu Zhi Village was originally rich in Auricularia auricula, hence the name Auricularia auricula village. Later, a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum was found under the locust tree in the village, so it was renamed Mu Zhi Village. It is widely rumored in the village that peaches and apricots in the village had stopped flowering three years before the birth of the story of Diusim, and it is still difficult for peach trees and apricot trees to survive, which means that the story of Diusim is ashamed of flowers.

There are archway, front hall, back hall, Wang Yun Street, Dixin Stage and Diaochan Tomb in the village. Over time, these buildings became ruins, and the tombs were razed to the ground in the catastrophe. Ancient bricks, stone components, copper coins and ceramic fragments are often unearthed in the ruins, which are said to be related to the story of Diusim. The tourist attraction is called the story of Diousim Cemetery, which was restored and built by villagers on the original site of the cemetery. The cemetery is located in the southwest of the village, covering an area of more than 4,000 square meters, surrounded by wavy dragon-shaped walls with red background and yellow tiles, shining in the vast sea of wheat. On the eaves of the door, there is a horizontal plaque of "The Story of Diesim Cemetery", and on both sides, there are "It is the pride of China people to be ashamed of closing flowers on the moon"; That humiliation and danger really stopped my eyebrows. "There are moon-worshipping pavilions and Fengyi pavilions in the north courtyard of Ling District, and there is a bluestone tomb behind it. There is a statue of "The Story of Diesim" in front of the platform. Under the dynamic streamer, Diusim's story walks quietly and elegantly, and still has the appearance of "closing the moon and feeling ashamed of flowers". There are 20 antique buildings in the South Campus, which is called "The Story of Diesim Painted Plastic Museum", which reflects the earth-shattering life story of Diesim who is willing to spend thousands of dollars, why not be afraid of danger.

According to villagers' legend, after the three brothers in Taoyuan gained power, they sent the story of Diusim back to their hometown and buried him here when he was old. He also told the story of Diusim throwing himself at the sword, and Guan Yu escorted the body back to his hometown for burial. Therefore, there is a statue of Guan Yu in the back hall, and there is a stage in front of the hall to show the story of Diusim's acting, which is a reward for Guan Yu's refusal to kill and escort. In addition, Zhonghuo Village in the southeast of Dingxiang County is the hometown of Lu Bu, and there are folk legends such as "Huo Qingquan", "Catch the Red Rabbit" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", all of which are related to Lu Bu. Therefore, there is a folk saying that "there is no good girl in Xinzhou and no good man in Dingxiang", which means that because of the story of Diusim and Lu Bu, Xinzhou can no longer produce beautiful women and Dingxiang can no longer produce handsome men.

6 Yang Yuhuan profile editor

Yang Yuhuan

He, Shi, Wang Zhaojun and Diophantine are also called the four beauties in ancient China.

Yang Yuhuan (AD 7 19-756): Taizhen, born in Yongle, Zhou Pu (now Yongji, Shaanxi), was the 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. In the seventh year of Kaiyuan (7 19), he was born in Rongzhou (now Rongxian County, Yulin, Guangxi) in June, and was born in a noble family. His great grandfather, Wang Yang, was a minister of the Sui Dynasty and was killed by Li Shimin in the early Tang Dynasty. His father, Yang Xuanyan, is a satrap, and his uncle, Xuan, is from Cao, Henan. Yang Yuhuan spent his childhood in Sichuan.

In July of the 22nd year of Kaiyuan (734), Princess Xianyi, the daughter of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, held a wedding in Luoyang, and Yang Yuhuan was also invited to attend. Li Mao, the younger brother of Princess Xianyi, fell in love with Yang Yuhuan at first sight. At the request of Wu Huifei, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty wrote a letter asking her to be the shroud princess of that year. After the marriage, they were very sweet and were ordered to become monks. In the fourth year of Tianbao (745), Yang was officially canonized as a imperial concubine by Xuanzong. In the 15th year of Tianbao (755), An Lushan launched a rebellion, Xuanzong fled to Sichuan, and Yang died in Mayi's army.

Yang Guifei and Tang Dynasty

Yang Yuhuan's natural beauty and superior educational environment make her have a certain cultural accomplishment, graceful personality, proficient in temperament, good at singing and dancing, and good at playing the pipa. Although she is a beautiful woman, she still has some shortcomings: she has a bad body odor, so she especially likes taking a bath, so she is called "it was early spring." They bathed her in a pure pool.

Yang Guifei's beauty is fat, the simplest beauty, the happiest beauty and the most emotional beauty. Is her real name Yuhuan? What's the name of the famous Yang Guifei? This is an interesting question. [5]

The imperial concubine took a bath

Neither the Old Tang Book nor the New Tang Book is recorded, nor is it clearly recorded in Zi Tong Zhi Jian. The legend of Song of Eternal Sorrow only says that she is Yang Xuanyan's daughter. In the ninth year of the Tang Dynasty (855), that is, about 100 years after the death of Yang Guifei, Zheng Chuhui's Miscellanies of Ming Taizu first mentioned: "Yang Guifei's small character Yuhuan". Later generations still use it today. There are different views on this. Qin Shihuang said in Jin Yang Men Shi Hua: "The jade slave is too small." Zheng Chuhui and Zheng Bi are both Tang Dynasty people, living in the same era, and both are Jinshi, so their statements have credible reasons. Of course, it is also possible that both names belong to Yang, one is his real name and the other is his nickname. No matter what Yang Guifei's name is, the old man named Li Longji likes it. He is really an old man. When we first met in the 28th year of Kaiyuan (740), Yang was only 22 years old and he was 56 years old. He is always older, but he is the emperor, so he can do whatever he wants. He not only doesn't care what her name is, but also doesn't care whether she is married or not, and doesn't even consider that she is married to her own son. As long as he likes it, he must take it.

When Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty took a fancy to Yang Yuhuan, she had been married to Li Mao, the longevity king, for almost five years. Hu Feng prevailed in the court of the Tang Dynasty, and it seems common for Lao Zi to rob his son and daughter-in-law. "Everyone is equal before love", so there is no guardian crying to give the emperor the idea of "human relations". But this is not a glorious thing after all. In order to explain to the world, Tang Xuanzong did some work on the table. For example, first, under the banner of filial piety, she was ordered to be a female Taoist priest, saying that she would recommend good news to her mother Dou Taihou, giving her the name "Too True" and letting Yang Yuhuan move out of Shouwangfu and live in Taizhen Palace. This is also to avoid people's eyes and ears and cheat. After five years' efforts, Xuanzong first solemnly fulfilled his "father's duty", betrothed Wei's daughter to the birthday girl Wang Li Mao as a princess, and then eagerly welcomed Yang back to the palace and officially conferred him as the imperial concubine. Yang Yuhuan is not only beautiful, good at singing and dancing, but also smart and considerate. He is simply the emperor's intimate "little cotton-padded jacket", and Xuanzong naturally likes it. Soon, Yang Yuhuan devoted himself to the harem, making it "and the powder and paint of the Sixth Palace fade to nothing". At that time, the palace called her madam, and all the treatments (etiquette rules) were also queen-level.

In this regard, Tang Li Shangyin has something to say. He wrote in "Love of Mount Li: Ode to Fei Yang": "The flying spring of Mount Li is warm and fragrant, and Gu Yulian's family in Kowloon, and the Ming people are lucky to live in the Palace of Eternal Life, not because of the golden jade, but because of the longevity king." It seems that Shouwang is really depressed and embarrassed. However, Xuanzong, regardless of human feelings, still wanted to take away his son's love. He could only sigh that Yang Yuhuan's beauty was too tempting. But according to common sense, Tang Xuanzong's love for Yang Guifei, who has entered the old age, may not only be because of his lust for beauty and sex in bed, but also because he treats her with great consideration in life [5].

For example, The Book of the Old Tang Dynasty says, "It's so gorgeous, good at singing and dancing, smooth in melody and brilliant. Every time I look forward to welcoming you, I move like this." The comments in "New Tang Book" are similar, only implicitly adding the hint of "special room banquet". Many literary works of later generations tried their best to indulge in obscenity, blindly amplifying the imperial concubine's ability of "inviting pets with color", which was suspected of overestimating Tang's physiological function. Of course, no matter how old a man is, he is still very useful to a beautiful woman, and this beautiful woman looks like a fairy. [6]

Drunken beauty

According to legend, one day, Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty remembered Mei Fei, who had been lost for many years, and had lunch at his residence in Mei Fei. Yang Yuhuan didn't know it. He gave a banquet in Baihua Pavilion, and prepared to drink with the emperor for one night. When Yang Yuhuan realized that there were other women in the emperor's heart, he couldn't help feeling a burst of sadness, and infinite sadness was hard to get rid of. She pours her own wine to drown her sorrows, thinking that life is like a dream, your heart is unpredictable, your mood is even lower, and you are gradually unable to drink and drunk. Gao Lishi, who was waiting by, encouraged her carefully and was full of sympathy for this lonely and lonely imperial concubine. Yang Yuhuan didn't wait for the emperor until the moon gradually darkened. She shook it step by step and was helped back to her residence. [7]

The legend of shame flowers

During the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, a beautiful daughter named Yang Yuhuan was elected to the palace. After Yang Yuhuan entered the palace, he missed his hometown. One day, she went to the garden to enjoy flowers and saw peonies and roses in full bloom ... She wanted to be locked in a palace and waste her youth. She sighed and said to the blooming flowers, "flowers, flowers!" " When you are still in full bloom every year, when can I have a bright future? "She was in tears. She just touched the flowers. Petals contract immediately, and green leaves roll low. Unexpectedly, she touched the mimosa. At this moment, I was seen by a palace lady. Gong E said everywhere that Yang Yuhuan was more beautiful than flowers, and flowers bowed their heads shyly. The title of "shame on flowers" came from this.
