People's pursuit of beauty has never stopped, especially those beautiful women who are beautiful and fragrant, and often become the focus of countless opposite-sex pursuits. The four beauties of ancient times have left classics, and their life stories have become good stories for future generations. Among them, Chen Yuanyuan in the late Ming Dynasty was one of the "Qin Huai Bayan", but behind her peerless beauty carried a tragedy of ill-fated fate. does not have a prominent family background to support, but has become a footnote to her fame.
Chen Yuanyuan's background was miserable, he lost his parents and became an orphan at an early age, and finally had to be sent to his aunt's house for foster care. However, this aunt was not a good person, and after raising her, she did not find a satisfactory husband for her, but sold her to the pear orchard, which opened the prelude to Chen Yuanyuan's troubled life.
After some dressing up, Chen Yuanyuan became an idol among the talents of Suzhou and Hangzhou with his stunning appearance, attracting groups of young talents who came to see the beauty. And the first guest to become her guest was a son of an official eunuch named Gong Ruofu. Although Gong Ruofu already has a family, Chen Yuanyuan can only become his concubine, but it is lucky to meet someone who treats her so sincerely. However, the trick of fate shattered Chen Yuanyuan's dream, and Gong Ruofu's family objected to him marrying a Qinglou woman, and in the end Chen Yuanyuan could only return to the pear orchard and return to his old life.
However, the reincarnation of fate made her meet the opportunity again in the midst of depression. Mao Xiang from the clan family, a talented man born in the family of Shi Eun, has been brilliant since childhood. However, under the mediocre situation, he failed in six township exams, and his life fell into difficulties. In order to relieve the depression in his heart, Mao Xiang came to the bank of the Qinhuai River and met Chen Yuanyuan, and he fell in love. When the two got along, Mao Xiang confessed his life experience to Chen Yuanyuan, and Chen Yuanyuan also believed that he was sincere to himself. In order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past, Chen Yuanyuan took the initiative to meet Mao Xiang's mother, and was recognized and agreed to become his concubine.
However, the trick of fate once again tore this marriage apart. Mao Xiang's father fell into a political turmoil, and in order to save his father, Mao Xiang had to sell his property, but when he rescued his father, he found that Chen Yuanyuan had been taken away by Tian Hongyu. Tian Hongyu was not for selfish desires, but wanted to dedicate Chen Yuanyuan to Emperor Chongzhen. However, the emperor was too busy with government affairs to appreciate Chen Yuanyuan, and Tian Hongyu's plan fell through.
Tian Hongyu left Chen Yuanyuan in the mansion and often entertained the powerful people in the DPRK and China, so that Chen Yuanyuan could show his talents. It was during this period that Chen Yuanyuan got acquainted with the figure who influenced her life - the chief soldier Wu Sangui. Wu Sangui took Chen Yuanyuan home and fell in love with her. However, because Wu Sangui was stationed in Ningyuan City, the fate of the two was also broken up.
In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, Chongzhen hanged himself, and the Ming Dynasty collapsed. Wu Sangui led the Ningyuan Iron Cavalry and became the most powerful force to resist the peasant army. However, Wu Xiang was detained, Wu's house was raided, and Chen Yuanyuan was also occupied by Liu Zongmin. At this moment of crisis, in order to save his father, Wu Sangui surrendered to the Manchus and defeated the peasant army. Chen Yuanyuan was also recaptured, however, she still did not get a peaceful life in this troubled world.
Wu Sangui made great achievements for the Manchu Qing Dynasty and was named the king of Pingxi and stationed in Yunnan. Chen Yuanyuan followed Wu Sangui to Yunnan, however, there, she became the beauty of the king of Pingxi, but gradually fell out of favor. Eventually, she practiced in the Wuhua Mountain temple and died in the 28th year of Kangxi.
God gave Chen Yuanyuan a peerless appearance, but did not give her a happy life. In the troubled times, it is difficult for her to have a stable life. Although she could have had a good ending with Mao Xiang, she finally became attached to Wu Sangui because of the twists and turns, which made her leave her name in the history books. However, her life remains a tragic picture, beautiful and bleak.
Chen Yuanyuan's fate can be described as a gripping picture, although her life has a peerless beauty, but it has experienced vicissitudes, joys and sorrows, and the story flows with a strong bitterness and helplessness.
First of all, Chen Yuanyuan's background is embarrassing. He lost his parents early and became an orphan and was fostered by his aunt, but he failed to get a warm family. Such a background made her bear heavy life pressure since she was a child, and then being sold to the pear orchard pushed her to the shadow behind the prosperity. This kind of loss of support since childhood undoubtedly made her more bumpy and bitter in her life journey.
Secondly, Chen Yuanyuan's love experience is pitiful. From Gong Ruofu to Mao Xiang, and then to Wu Sangui, every relationship is accompanied by dramatic twists and turns. Especially the marriage with Gong Ruofu, although it was true love at the beginning, it came to naught due to the obstruction of the family background. This makes people sigh at the impermanence of fate, and it also makes Chen Yuanyuan's beauty the cause of her bumpy fate. Although Mao Xiang was her bosom friend, the political turmoil prevented the two from coming together. In the end, the relationship with Wu Sangui carried the helplessness of great changes in history. All this made Chen Yuanyuan suffer emotionally and became a touching love tragedy.
In the end, Chen Yuanyuan's life is destined to be ups and downs in troubled times. She was born at a turbulent moment when the Ming Dynasty fell, and political turmoil and wars were frequent, which made her beauty the price of fate. Her life has been shuttled through the torrent of historical changes, and she has suffered from war. Although she eventually came to Yunnan with Wu Sangui, she did not enjoy the tranquility of her later years. The practice of Wuhua Mountain is more like a return to a fateful life of ups and downs.
Overall, Chen Yuanyuan's story is a poignant picture, and her beauty has become an irresistible burden in her life. Fate made people, she wandered in troubled times, emotionally ups and downs, and finally finished her life with an indifferent attitude. Her legendary life has left a deep trace in the long river of history, and it has also made people think more deeply about the bitterness behind beauty.
