i.An ominous sign at birth, the girl does not cry or laugh.
In the winter of 1082, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty was Kaifeng. In the winter of 1082, in a family of commoners and workers in Kaifeng, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, a new life was born. She is the famous prostitute Li Shishi, formerly known as Wang Shishi. However, when the little girl screamed, she did not cry like a normal baby, but quietly closed her eyes, neither crying nor laughing, much to the surprise of her grandmother.
Wang Shifu's father, Wang Yin, was a craftsman at the Kaifeng Paint Factory. He and his wife have a good relationship, although the family is poor, the two take care of each other and live a comfortable and comfortable life. Wang Yin also loves his only daughter very much.
But the good times didn't last long. Soon after Wang's birth, his mother died of hemorrhage in childbirth. Wang Yin was so grief-stricken that he had to raise his daughter alone. In order to pray for his daughter, Wang Yin took her to the temple and asked the monk to name her and pray.
Unexpectedly, the normally obedient baby cried loudly, alarming the monks who were singing in the temple. An elderly monk was very angry and kicked them both out of the temple, saying:"They can't enter the temple! "He drove them out of the temple. The anger of the old monk foreshadowed the extraordinaryness of this child.
At the age of four, he lost his father and was given up for adoption at an opera house.
When Wang was four years old, his father, Wang Yin, was imprisoned for his crime and died soon after. Wang became an orphan and was adopted by Li, who worked as a prostitute in Gelou, and changed his surname to Li.
Life in a brothel was hard for a four-year-old girl, but the skilled Master Li quickly adapted. This beautiful and intelligent girl is taken in by her boyfriend and groomed to become a future star prostitute.
To help Master Li advance artistically, the puppeteer hired a singing and dancing teacher to teach Master Li singing, dancing, and other arts. Master Li is talented, diligent and studious, and has made rapid progress in art. Soon, the girl became a small member of the troupe"Stars"。
The third is a red-haired girl in the green house next to the composer.
Time flies, and Master Li is 16 years old. During this time, she has become one of the beauties of the country, and her sweet singing voice and graceful dancing posture make guests fall in love with her. Master Li became a celebrity in the Qinglou, and his reputation spread all over the country.
His poems were loved by many dignitaries and literati, and many lyricists wrote lyrics for him. Zhou Bangyan, Qin Guan, Chao Buzhi and others are all his confidants. Their new work provides a steady stream of material for Li Shizhi's artistic creation.
Li Shizhi is not only talented, but also diligent and studious. He was not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also had a good understanding of the political situation at that time. This made his art even more thought-provoking and deeply loved by the literati.
With their help, Master Li quickly became famous, and not only ordinary people, but even high-ranking officials and nobles were interested in her, and they spent a lot of money to invite her to listen to songs. Master Li soon amassed a large fortune and became a wealthy prostitute.
Political change and the disintegration of songwriters.
Just as Li Shizhi's career was in full swing, the political situation in the Northern Song Dynasty was deteriorating. Soon after his accession to the throne, Song Zhezong began reforms and removed most of his ministers. Li Shizhi's friends were also implicated, some were demoted, and some left Kaifeng to live in other countries.
Master Li, who had created many masterpieces, suddenly lost his creative material. All he could do was to return to the theater and perform for the dignitaries of Huashan to regain his prestige.
But Master Li was known for her talent and beauty, and she soon made many new friends. The dignitaries sent more gold and silver treasures than before. Master Li's life has become rich again.
v.Meet a beautiful woman in royal disguise.
One day, a young man came to listen to Master Li's lecture, and the two fell in love at first sight and had a very happy conversation. It turned out that this person was the little emperor Song Huizong, who had just ascended the throne. He came to listen to Master Li's lecture in disguise, and was deeply attracted by Master Li's talent and appearance.
They fell in love, and Song Huizong spent a week trying to meet his lover alone. When Master Li learned his true identity, he was both surprised and honored. She fell in love with the handsome and amorous emperor and became his favorite concubine.
Song Huizong wanted to take Master Li into the palace, but because of the ancestral system, he didn't dare to act rashly. They can only continue with secret trysts. Song Huizong gave Master Li countless gold, silver and jewelry, and Master Li also lived a rich and glorious life day by day.
Sixth, the war is over and love is broken.
The good times didn't last long, and just when they were in love with each other, the Jin Kingdom in the north went south to attack the Northern Song Dynasty. Song Huizong hurriedly abdicated and fled for refuge. Li Shishi was left alone in Kaifeng, and her love with her lover ended.
After the invasion of the Jin soldiers, the palace treasury was empty, and Song Huizong had to pay a large amount of gold, silver, silk and silk taxes to the Jin people every year. In order to increase military salaries, the palace plundered people's property on a large scale, and most of Li Shishi's property was looted.
He was saddened by the crisis in his country and decided to donate all his wealth to help the country. Since then, Master Li has lived a life of poverty again.
Seven. Impoverishment and relapse.
When the Jin soldiers finally captured Kaifeng, Song Qinzong and his two sons fled, and the Northern Song dynasty came to an end. Some people say that Li Shishi committed suicide by throwing himself into the river when the Jin soldiers entered the city, and some people say that he died of **.

Li Shishi, the brightest star in the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, was destined to die in troubled times. When he died in the troubled times of the Yin Shang invasion, his legendary life came to an end.
More than 100 years have passed, the former heyday of Kaifeng no longer exists, and the Great Song Dynasty has become history. But the wonderful legend of Master Li still shines brightly in the eulogy of future generations.
