In the land of Hedong where people are so popular, a legendary woman appeared. She experienced the greatest luck and greatest misfortune in her life; she had experienced the highest glory and deepest pain in the world.
has left a fascinating fragrance and rumors for the land of Hedong.
She is one of the four famous beauties in my country's history, an outstanding dancer in the Tang Dynasty and a famous concubine Yang Yuhuan.
"The Yang family had a daughter who was first grown up and was raised in the deep boudoir and was not known to anyone." Yang Yuhuan recorded the history of "Puzhou Yonglefang (now Yongji County)".
Father Yang Yuanyan first served as an official in Puzhou, and then served as a Sihu in Shuzhou, Sichuan. It is inconvenient to take care of his family, Yang Yuhuan was born in Puzhou. Later, because his father died of prematureness, he was fostered at his uncle's house in Dutou Village at the foot of Shouyang Mountain in southwest of Puzhou, and was raised by his uncle.
Yang Yuhuan has been smart and lively and active since childhood. She often goes to the hillside in the east of the village to pick mountain flowers, dig wild vegetables, and play with the young sisters. She also likes to sing and dance in the clear water pond in the ditch. Her singing voice is like a lark and her dancing posture is like a purple swallow. The villagers all praise her as a beautiful mountain flower in the mountain countryside.
Who knew that Yuhuan suddenly suffered from head sores when she was five years old and her hair gradually fell off. A hundred prescriptions were ineffective, and all medicines were not effective. In the end, they became bald, as if the peony had no green leaves and the oriole had no feathers. She was so sad and bored. She often ran to Donggou alone to face the water, crying sadly.
One day, she fell asleep while crying by the pond. Suddenly, a white-haired old lady came to her side with a cane and asked affectionately, "Little girl, what are you sad?"
Yuhuan said, "Grandma is so old, her hair is as white as silver; I am only five years old, and my hair is all gone, why don't you be sad?"
The old lady smiled and said, "Small things, why be sad."
Yuhuan hurriedly asked, "What are the recipes for grandma?"
Grandma said, "The water in front of me is cleared, and shampooed hair."
Yuhuan was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked the old lady. The old lady reminded again: "It's not OK to wash it once. You have to wash it for 9981 days. It depends on whether you have perseverance." After that, it disappeared.
Yuhuan opened his eyes quickly, it turned out to be a dream. She wondered if she had met a god? Why don't I give it a try? He jumped into the pool to bathe in his body and wash his hair, and he felt very relaxed all over. From then on, she persisted, regardless of whether it was cloudy or sunny or windy or rainy, and she insisted on washing her hair.
When washing for 8864 days, the head sores and scabs fall off; when washing for 9981 days, the head hair grows bright and bright, with black lacquer and bright hair, like black hair and piled like dark clouds.
She went to the water to take a photo and saw a pretty and beautiful little girl smiling at her, and she didn't even know her. The little sister was happy when she heard this, and the villagers saw her like it. From then on, her singing came out of the valley and her dancing posture was seen on the lawn.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Longji, whose temple name is Xuanzong, was known as Minghuang. He is a romantic emperor who worked hard to govern and created the prosperous era of Kaiyuan. He likes singing, dancing and singing the most in daily life.
In the 22nd year of Kaiyuan, he ordered the emperor's brother Ning, who loved singing and dancing and proficient in music, and Li Mao, the eighteenth prince, went to Hedong to select singing and dancing talents. When passing Puzhou, Li Mao, the king of Shou, found the beautiful Yang Yuhuan among the people who were watching the fun while watching the fun. After open and secret investigations, he knew that Yuhuan could sing and dance well, and was even more happy, so he left a token of love with Yuhuan, Purple Bamboo and Jade Flute.
After returning to the court, he reported to the Ming Dynasty's father. Xuanzong immediately sent Prime Minister Li Linfu to Puzhou to pass the imperial edict, took Yuhuan to Chang'an, held a wedding with King Shou, and became Princess Shou.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang also fell in love with Yang Yuhuan. He was not only obsessed with Yuhuan's appearance, but also like Yuhuan's singing and dancing posture.
When his beloved concubine Wu Hui died of illness, he adopted the method of moving flowers and wood to steal the sky and change the sun, and wanted to dominate his daughter-in-law as already.
He thought that his mother was filial to her, so he regarded Yuhuandu as a female Taoist priest and named him Taizhen. Wei Zhaoxun's daughter Wei Wei was also married to King Shou, and then he also legitimately enthroned Yang Taizhen as the Imperial Concubine.
Xuanzong went around such a big circle. The kind and cowardly Yuhuan was not voluntarily, but she was afraid of implicating the King of Shou and the Yang family, so she had to accept her fate with sorrow and tears. From then on, she began her unique career as a concubine who combines joys and sorrows, honor and disgrace, survival and death.
Public people love Yang Yuhuan, understand Yang Yuhuan, sympathize with Yang Yuhuan, and miss Yang Yuhuan even more. So he changed the name of the village to Bald Village, but later he felt that he was not elegant, so he changed the name to Dutou Village. The Qingshui Pond, where Yuhuan shampooed his hair in the east of the village, is also called the "Nigui Fei Pond", and has been passed down to this day.
Emperor Xuanzong of Tang tried his best to designate Yuhuan as a concubine. He was obedient to Yuhuan and obeyed everything. He really "three thousand loves together." In order to bathe in Yuhuan, he specially built a beautiful "Begonia soup" for Yuhuan in Huaqing Pond, Mount Li, Lintong; in order to make embroidery clothes for Yuhuan, 700 embroidery workers recruited.
Xuanzong asked Yuhuan to taste the southern lychees, and Yuhuan said nonsense, "This lychees are not new." Xuanzong ordered Gao Lishi to send someone to send lychees quickly.
Thousands of miles from Lingnan to Chang'an, there are endless changes of people and horses, one post station after another, and fast horses are teleported. Not only did the horse die of exhaustion, but no matter how hard it was, the lychees were delivered to Yuhuan, it was really fresh and spiritual.
Yuhuan missed his relatives in his hometown, and Xuanzong accompanied the concubine back to his parents' home. They set off from Chang'an with the mighty deacon, went east to Tongguan, crossed the Pujin Pass Dafu Bridge to admire the Kaiyuan Dati Niu in Zhenhe, and lived in Puzhou Inn.
Yuhuan visited her and Xuanzong accompanied her to Xiangqiyan Temple and wanted to go to the mountain to escape the summer heat. In order to please Emperor Xuanzong, local officials called the summer resort on the top of the mountain "Tang Wangtai" and built the exquisite and beautiful Tang Wangtai on the stage. It is said that Xuanzong and Yuhuan went up to Xiasi Village. Because the mountain road was narrow and the Luan Jia could not walk, the Luan Jia retreated, and the village was also renamed Shijiazhuang. Then he went up to
Shangsi Village. The mountain road was narrower, so all civil and military officials had to stay with Hujiazhuang, so the village was renamed Houjiazhuang. The ancient pagoda still exists on the King of Tang Dynasty, which seems to be a pleasant summer resort.
According to legend, Yang Guifei was also proficient in medical skills and treated local people when she returned to her parents' home to visit relatives. In order to commemorate her merits, people also built a "Glory Temple" in Xiguan, Puzhou.
Yang Guifei is also a versatile ancient musician and dancer.
"Old Book of Tang" records that she "has a beautiful figure, good at singing and dancing, good at music, and extraordinary in wisdom." The book "Cihai" included Yang Yuhuan in the dancer's entry, saying that she "has a good at music, good at singing and dancing, especially in "Dance of the Bright Skirt and Feather Clothes" and "Hu Xuan". She deserves it.
Every time Yang Guifei went to a grand banquet in the palace, she asked the palace maid Yongxin and Niannu to bring musical instruments and dance shoes. Xuanzong was happy and asked the imperial concubine to sing and dance. The imperial concubine would respond to all requests. The famous songs she often dances include "Green Waist", "Purple Clouds Back", "Lingbo Song", etc.
She is also good at playing the flute and pipa and compose music. Once, after performing the Brahmin Dance she learned from India for Xuanzong, she said: "This song has too strong Indian flavor. If it can be changed, it will be more appropriate to our taste." She put forward the idea of "changing him to me, foreign to Chinese use" in a very insightful way. Xuanzong ordered her to modify the music and dance postures to turn the Indian Buddhist dance into the Tang and Han rhymes.
The famous songs of the Tang Dynasty "The Song of the Nichang and Feather Clothes" are all legendary. They are the songs of the Tang Dynasty Minghuang dreaming of traveling to the Moon Palace and riding on the immortals. In fact, it is a set of comprehensive Chinese and foreign famous songs founded by Li Longji in the Tianbao period. It has a large-scale movement with its own characteristics, which has both Taoist musical style, Buddhist musical essence, and Confucian elegant music.
was directed by Yang Guifei himself, led by Li Longji's flute playing, and was accompanied by famous palace musicians Li Guinian, Zhang Yehu, and Lei Haiqing. There were two or three hundred performers, and the scale was considerable. After many modifications, it was officially announced by the government as a dynasty music. The success of "The Song of the Nichang and Feathered Clothes" represents Yang Guifei's artistic achievements
Yang Guifei is also a very talented poet. The most famous poem is the poem "Gived to Zhang Yunrongwu" recorded in "Complete Tang Poetry".
It is said that on the 5th day of the eighth month of Tianbao, Xuanzong's 70th birthday was held in the palace to celebrate, and dancer Zhang Yunrong performed the dance "Anaqu" adapted from the Ma Xian period. This dance mainly uses pointe dance and hand posture to match the movements of the waist, which is like ballet and elegant and fresh.
Xuanzong was overjoyed and said happily: "How can you not have any poetry when you dance so well? Quickly pass on Wang Wei to the palace to write poems and record them."
Concubine hurriedly stopped him and said: "Wang Wei only knows how to praise merits, and I am afraid that I can't write dances. So it's better to let my concubine write a song."
Xuanzong hurriedly ordered the flower paper, pen and inkstone. Yang Guifei thought for a while and wrote, "The silk sleeves move and the fragrance is endless, and the red flowers are graceful in the autumn smoke. The wind sways on the light clouds, and the water is blowing by the tender willow pond. "The first sentence describes the first movement of the silk sleeve, the fragrance is everywhere, and it has been filled with time.
The next three sentences are compared with "red lanterns", "light clouds" and tender willows", which describes its bright and graceful dance posture: it is also used to render and set off with "Autumn Smoke", "Suddenly Swaying Wind" and "First Brushing Water", to draw an image of a dancer who is floating and ecstatic, both real and illusory. The whole poem has novel metaphors, vivid descriptions, and precise words, which is a masterpiece.
Although Yang Guifei devoted herself to singing and dancing throughout her life, never got involved in politics, and never intervened in power struggles, she was in the intrigue palace and temple and was eventually caught up in the whirlpool of power struggles, becoming a scapegoat for feudal emperors and acting as a tragic figure that is pitiful.
In order to please her, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang vigorously gave her family. Even her second brother Yang Guozhong was promoted from the Censor General and the Ministry of War to the Prime Minister.
Her sisters Yuling and Yuyao were named Lady of Korea, Lady of Qin and Lady of Guo respectively. They were of high power, heavy and powerful for a while, resulting in a folk song at that time saying, "Don't like a boy, don't be sad and sad when you have a daughter. A man is not a concubine, but a daughter is a concubine." The Yang family members all benefited from Yuhuan's light.
Yang Guifei was very dissatisfied with the Yang family's power to subdue her, Yang Wei's mischief. For example, the slave of the Korean Lady beat Cheng Changyi, the commander-in-chief of the horse, and Xuanzong not only did not punish the Korean Lady but removed Cheng Changyi from his post. Yang Guifei was shocked when she heard about it and persuaded Xuanzong to deal with it again.
Xuanzong said: "Cheng Changyi will not be an official, so it is worth it for me to use this to remove him. There is nothing wrong with this." This shows Xuanzong's preference for Fei Concubine and his ancestral protection for the Yang family.
But Yang Guifei knew that Xuanzong just loved her beauty and was good at singing and dancing, and her love was unreliable. After all, she and King Shou were young couples who were in love with each other. They gave birth to a son ten years after marriage, and the palaces were separated from her longing. For this reason, she often comforted herself by singing and dancing, relieved her sorrow and resentment: she often used alcohol to make her contradict Xuanzong and vent her depression in her chest. There were two times when Xuanzong kicked her out of the palace.
Once, it was the trick of the prince Li Heng envoy. He bribed a eunuch to report that the concubine's child was seriously ill. Yuhuan loved her son and drove to Shouwang Palace privately. Although she was noticed and stopped her in time, Xuanzong still blamed her for ignoring the etiquette and law in the palace. Yuhuan was dissatisfied and came over with arguing with Xuanzong. Xuanzong was angry and sent her back to Yang's house.
Originally, it was a crime of contradicting the emperor, but now it is only sent back to his parents' home, which shows that Xuanzong still cannot bear to leave the imperial concubine. Gao Lishi knew Xuanzong's heart well and advised him, "Your Majesty, why should you cherish a place in the palace and let the imperial concubine humiliate her?" Xuanzong tactfully told Gao Lishi to recall the imperial concubine overnight, and a storm was left unresolved.
Once, Xuanzong asked the imperial concubine to drink and enjoy the flowers at the Chenxiang Pavilion. The imperial concubine arranged a banquet early in the morning, but Xuanzong was not here for a long time. But Gao Lishi led two little eunuchs to chase Mei Fei who was crazy because of her fall from favor. The jade ring was sad when she touched the scene. Thinking of Mei Fei, a beautiful man from Jiangnan who Xuanzong was extremely favored by him, once upon a time, the pearl yellow color faded and was abandoned to the east building of Yangyang, and was so depressed that she was crazy. If one day one offends the emperor, what will happen? I burst into tears without feeling that I felt like crying. After the second update of
, Xuanzong had not yet come. She thought that Xuanzong must have been greedy for a new love elsewhere, so she couldn't help but think of King Shou, so she ordered Yongxin to take out the jade flute that King Shou gave her that year. While playing the song of longing, she drank continuously. Yongxin couldn't stop him, and he fell into the agarwood pavilion after a while.
at 0:00, when Xuanzong rushed to another concubine. Seeing that the imperial concubine was drunk like a crabapple sleeping in spring, he went forward to caress her. Unexpectedly, he found the Prince Shou Yu Di, and was furious and ordered to "Shou Wang to be a commoner, Shui Xin immediately asked to be executed!"
Yu Huan was also awakened at this time and hurriedly said, "This flute was carried by my concubine when she entered the palace, and it had nothing to do with Shou Wang Shui Xin!" and shouted, "Shou Wang's wronged!"
Xuanzong asked, "What's wronged about him?"
Yu Huan poured out his heart and said, "Yu Huan was sixteen years old and was matched by Shou Wang. Thinking about it for ten years, I have been with you every day and singing songs. This flute and jade Huan has been playing and not wanting others to spit on it again, so I stayed by my side.I took it out occasionally, but I just wanted to play a new song for long live. Long live to be the King of Birth. If the civil and military officials know, wouldn’t they be laughed at by the world! "
Xuanzong asked, "What is he laughing at me? "
Yuhuan actually said unscrupulously: "I laugh at you for being jealous and ruthless! "
Xuanzong said furiously: "The bold and lowly concubine, Jingzheng went crazy by drinking, accusing me of the people, and immediately demoted her to the palace! "
This time the chaos broke out, and Yang Guozhong and the Lady of the Three Kingdoms were panicked and rushed to discuss with Gao Lishi.
Gao Lishi knew that Xuanzong could not live without the imperial concubine. After Xuanzong was exhausted, he persuaded him politely, assuming that the imperial concubine was regretful in the Yang Mansion and cried all day long.
Xuanzong heard that the boss couldn't bear it, so he ordered Gao Lishi to send a box of imperial meals.
Gao Lishi saw that something happened After turning around, he advised Yang Yuhuan to cut off a strand of hair and give it back to apologize. Yuhuan refused to obey and vowed not to enter the palace again. Yang Guozhong cut a strand of hair from Lady Guo and let Gao Lishi take it back. Xuanzong was very moved to see the hair and ordered the imperial concubine to recall it.
The stubborn and willful Yuhuan returned to the palace without saying a word, and was depressed. In order to please the imperial concubine, Xuanzong pulled Yuhuan to the Palace of Changsheng to swear to the moon, saying, "I am willing to be a bird with wings in the sky, and I am willing to be a branch on the ground." I will never be separated in this life and will be a husband and wife forever. "But Yuhuan knew very well: the emperor's words were unreliable.
Sure enough, after An Lushan rebelled in Fanyang for fourteen years, Xuanzong fled west to Mawei Post, and the six armies mutiny. In the decision of imperial power and beauty, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang still chose imperial power and personally caused the tragedy of Yang Guifei.
Although Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was still energetic, he had no intention of giving way for 45 years in power. As a result, the forty-six-year-old crown prince Li Heng wanted to ascend the throne, his eyes were red, and he secretly colluded with Li Puguo, Chen Xuanli and others conspired to usurp power. He tried every means to imply that An Lushan rebelled, so that he could seize power in the chaos and succeed to quell the rebellion.
He also slandered Yang Guozhong, asked An Lushan to raise the banner of "strike Yang Guozhong" to rebel, and Chen Xuanli clamored that the six armies killed Yang Guozhong by placing "Yang Guozhong into the enemy and stolen the country", and forced Xuanzong to kill Yang Guifei.
Xuanzong said, "The imperial concubine never interfered in political affairs, so why is it a crime? "
Chen Xuanli said: "Although the imperial concubine is innocent, she is Yang Guozhong's sister. She always has some connections. It is difficult to relieve the worries of the six armies without killing the imperial concubine. "
The soldiers also took the opportunity to shout, "Don't kill the imperial concubine, and swear not to protect the enemy!" "
Xuanzong had no choice but to issue an order to hang himself. Yuhuan held the seven-foot white silk given by Xuanzong in his hand, stood under the pear tree in the Maweipo Buddhist temple courtyard, looking at the bleak clouds and sky, and smiled bitterly. She finally understood a truth: the emperor favored all the beauties in the world, but only protected his personal imperial power.
She put on the white silk peacefully and said with a smile to others. Li Heng killed Yang Guozhong to cut off his father's arms, and from the perspective of power To weaken Xuanzong; to force the imperial concubine to hang it, to destroy the imperial emperor spiritually. Xuanzong lost the imperial concubine and also lost the imperial power. Soon Li Heng succeeded to the throne and changed the imperial virtue. Xuanzong was exhausted and died of depression after returning to the capital.
Yang Guifei became a victim of the power struggle between father and son. No wonder the people and knowledgeable people all sympathized with the imperial concubine and spoke for her. The great poet Zhao Changjing hit the words: "The disaster is the king, so why should the country be blamed for Yuhuan? "
Yang Guifei finally hurriedly completed her thirty-nine-year journey of life in honor and disgrace.
left a brilliant page and a decayed and broken page for the glorious five thousand years of history of China; it also left a poetic and picturesque historical sites and beautiful legends for the land of China.
The tomb of the imperial concubine at Mawei Slope, the Huaqing Pond in Lintong, and the agarwood pavilion in Xingqing Palace have all become places for tourists to compete for. If you go to Puzhou, Hedong to visit the imperial concubine pool, the Tang King Tower, the Kaiyuan Datiao and other famous places, and listen to magical and beautiful rumors and anecdotes, you will get a complete image of Yang Guifei, which is a different feeling in your heart.
