Throughout history, all the people who can be written into history are not simple. They are either kings, princes, generals, literati, poets, or outstanding contributions, special deeds, or great traitors and evil people.
There are many familiar historical figures, who are familiar with the truth. If you talk too much about their stories and listen too much, people will mistakenly believe that they are real and believe in them.
But I don’t know that they are fictional characters, or characters that have not been clearly recorded in official history. For example, these three ancient beauties who are well-known and well-known, all have familiar names, but they do not exist in real history.
The first place Diao Chan
Diao Chan As one of the four beauties in ancient times, he is a historical figure known to all Chinese women and children, and has the appearance of " closed moon ". But unlike the other three beauties, Xi Shi, Wang Zhaojun, , and Yang Guifei, , Diao Chan "checked this person" in the official history.
Diao Chan's birth and death are unknown. There is a history that says that her real name is Huo. In the Yuan Dynasty's miscellaneous song "Serial Plan", it is also said that Diao Chan's real name is Ren Hongchang .
All the historical stories and allusions we hear about Diao Chan are from some historical novels , or folk legends.
For example, Lu Bu plays Diao Chan , Wang Situ Secretly make a series of plans , Guan Yu htmlKill Diao Chan in August, etc., are all fictional characters derived from creators in order to promote the development of the storyline.
Regarding Diao Chan, the most familiar thing people are that she was born in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. She was the adopted daughter of Lord Situ Wang Yun , with a beautiful appearance.
was presented to Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo by Wang Yun, and cleverly used the beauty plan and the chain plan to make Diao Chan constantly deal with Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu, and to alienate the relationship between the adopted father and son. In the end, Lu Bu was dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo occupying Diao Chan and killed Dong Zhuo with his own hands.
This is a plot that everyone is very familiar with in the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is adapted and created based on the official history books " Three Kingdoms " and " Later Han Book ".
can be found in "The Three Kingdoms" and "The Book of the Later Han" , but there is also the character Diao Chan. In official history, the reason why Lu Bu killed his adoptive father Dong Zhuo was because Lu Bu had an affair with Dong Zhuo's maid, and Lu Bu was always uneasy about this.
So people from later generations seized the "beauty" here and started to create. Therefore, Diao Chan, the beauty who coexists with beauty and wisdom, is brave and persevering, and understands justice that we later saw in the novel.
second place Mulan
There are many well-known female historical figures in ancient my country's history. In addition to the four beauties of ancient times, there are also four heroines of ancient times .
The most famous of the four ancient heroines is the one who was born in the Sui Dynasty period. She disguised herself as a man and joined the army on behalf of her father. She wrote a tragic epic of the heroes of the heroines.
"Jiji Fuji Jiji, Mulan Weaving in the Home". It can be said that Mulan's legendary deeds of joining the army for her father have been passed down to this day and are well-known, which has a lot to do with this masterpiece "The Book of Mulan".
But in real history, there is no such thing as Mulan. Her true surname, date of birth, hometown, etc., is not clearly recorded in the official history. Therefore, there have been many debates about whether Mulan is the person in later generations and there are many different opinions.
Some people say that her surname is Zhu, some say that her surname is Wei, some say that her surname is Han, some say that she is from Songzhou, and some say that she is from Huangzhou, and some say that she is from Shangqiu. Today, Yucheng, Shangqiu City, Henan Province, is also called " China's Mulan Township " , which is specially used by later generations to commemorate Mulan.
But regardless of whether Mulan really exists, the image of "Mulan" has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts and has become a spiritual sustenance for people.
3 Mu Guiying
Like Mulan, Mu Guiying is also a typical heroine, and is also among the four great heroines of ancient (there are also two of them, Fan Lihua , Liang Hongyu).
Mu Guiying recruits brides, Mu Guiying's campaign to the West, Mu Guiying takes command and other deeds are also widely circulated among the people. It is known that Mu Guiying is the daughter of Mu Yu, the leader of Mu Ke Village, and is the wife of Yang Zongbao's .
As a female general of the Yang family, she has superb martial arts, wisdom and courage. She fought on the battlefield with the Yang family generals to defend her family and country. She was eventually killed and died and sacrificed her life for the country.
But in the history of Northern Song , there is no character like Mu Guiying. Mu Guiying is just a fictional character in novels such as " Northern Song Dynasty Zhichuan ".
Although Mu Guiying is a fictional character, she has a historical prototype. According to the "Baoting Zhou Zhi",
"Murong family, Yang Ye Sun Wenguang's wife, from Muta Village, Nanzhou, is brave and good at fighting."
So after later generations, the prototype of Mu Guiying should be from the Northern Song Dynasty and lived in the northwest border area for many years. It is the Murong family of the Xianbei people, who are the major surname of the Xianbei people. There are two reasons:
One of them, as recorded in the "Baoting Zhou Zhi" above, in real history, Yang Ye's grandson, Yang Ye's famous general, had a marriage with the Murong family of the Xianbei people, and Yang Wenguang's wife Murong family is also a brave and good at fighting woman.
Second, the name "Mu Guiying" may also be taken from "Murong". If you pronounce the three words "Mu Guiying" quickly, it is actually very similar to the pronunciation of the two words "Murong".
So, people speculate that this Murong family is likely to be Mu Guiying's historical prototype.
