Su Xiaoxiao, a famous prostitute through the ages, only lived to be 19 years old, but her strength crushed Chen Yuanyuan and Liu Rusi. has become a topic of conversation that people will never forget, is it just because she is beautiful?
Su Xiaoxiao can be said to be the most mysterious but famous woman in history.
Because there is no record of her in the official history, everything about her is pieced together according to wild history and folklore. But that doesn't detract from her charm at all.
1. Worry-free childhood
Su Xiaoxiao has lived in a large family since she was a child, her parents are businessmen, and he is the only seedling in the family, so her parents love her very much.
Every time I come back from a business trip, I can't forget to bring her all kinds of delicious and fun food, and considering that I am busy with work and can't take care of Su Xiaoxiao, I invited a special teacher to teach her.
also specially hired a wet nurse-Aunt Jia to take care of Su Xiaoxiao, so although her parents were not around, Su Xiaoxiao's childhood was still quite full and happy.
She is very smart, she can recite poetry and write right after learning for a long time, and when she grows up, she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and her personality is also very cheerful.
Aunt Jia often praises her for being like a deer in the woods, jumping around all day long, always so innocent and romantic.
II. II. II, fate your turning point: the stubbornness in the geisha's career
But when she was 15 years old, her parents died unexpectedly, and the sudden accident caught Su Xiaoxiao off guard.
In desperation, she could only stop her studies and ask someone to help take care of her parents' future while solving the work left by her parents.
After she dealt with all this, the whole person lost weight and became more petite, and at this time, only Aunt Jia accompanied her at home.
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao who was tired lying on the table, although Aunt Jia persuaded Su Xiaoxiao distressedly, although we still have a little money, it is not a long-term solution, in case I die one day, who else can you rely on? You've also reached the age of marriage, otherwise find a rich family to marry!
Su Xiaoxiao not only didn't listen to Aunt Jia's words, but made an amazing decision.
She said that she was going to be a geisha, and she said that if she married into a rich family, I would become a canary, and then I would have to sit in a well and watch the sky, and I would have to compete with those wives and concubines when I got married, and it would be better to be a prominent leader in a brothel.
Because since the unexpected death of her parents, she has understood that there are too many impermanences and accidents in life, and she can't be trapped by some outdated concepts, and she must live as she wants.
After that, she took all her money and lived by the Xiling Bridge in West Lake.
In order not to sit and eat empty, Su Xiaoxiao opened the Mucai Pavilion to welcome guests. But unlike other geisha, she doesn't look at money, she doesn't look at face, but meets friends with poetry.
ushered in the day of sending, it is inevitable that there will be disciples who covet Su Xiaoxiao's beauty, among which there is a high-ranking official and nobleman who asks for a lot of money to marry, and Aunt Jia persuades her to marry in order to have a stable life in the future.
But Su Xiaoxiao turned her head and said categorically: "I'd rather be a courtesan and a poet, make a living with my own skills, and end up clean, rather than committing myself to others to serve people at will." ”
Her way of life just shows that she is a person who yearns for freedom but is not willing to fall and sticks to her principles.
Only then did later generations praise him for his talent and elegance. A woman who sticks to her dignity in the dust.
Her name frequently appears in the poems, lyrics, and notes of the literati.
Bai Juyi once wrote "Willow Branches": "If you understand the amorous and look for the small, the depths of the green poplar are the Su family" ("Quantang Poems" volume 28), the amorous Su Xiaoxiao is fascinating.
ThreeMeet love, stick to the original intention for love
Later, she met a person who thought she could entrust her life - Ruan Yu, Ruan Yu is the son of the prime minister, handsome and chic, well-known in the world, and endowed with poetry and songs, elegant and generous in speech and demeanor, not like those gentlemen who only know how to eat, drink and have fun.
When Su Xiaoxiao first met, when Su Xiaoxiao was riding an oil-walled car, he was greeted by Ruan Yu who was riding a green horse.
Ruan Yu, who accidentally fell off the horse, frightened Su Xiaoxiao, and the handsome son politely apologized to Su Xiaoxiao, and in this way, under the pines and cypresses in Xiling, the two met, one was beautiful and moving, and the other was suave.
It's just that after this rubbing shoulders, both of them fell into it, he ate tastelessly, and she couldn't sleep at night. Ruan Yu later came to visit, Su Xiaoxiao was hospitable, and in order to please Ailang, Su Xiaoxiao stayed overnight in Ruan Yu.
After a night of romance, the two were inseparable, and even made a private decision for life on the shore of West Lake. During the day, we play in the mountains and rivers, and sleep together at night.
Su Xiaoxiao wrote a poem for their love: "I rode the oil wall car, and Lang rode the green horse. Where do you get together? Under the pines and cypresses of Xiling. ”
Fourth, the love of Ruan's father
Unexpectedly, Ruan Yu's father was very angry when he learned about this relationship. In ancient times, love could not be free and autonomous, and it was necessary to follow the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers.
Ruan Yu didn't want to lose his lover, so he tried his best to resist, but his father tricked him into going home on the grounds of illness, and when he left, Ruan Yu told Xiaoxiao that he must wait for him to come back.
As a result, he was detained by his father when he went back, and he forcibly wanted to break them up, beat the mandarin ducks, and broke off this evil relationship.
As time passed, Su Xiaoxiao looked forward to Ruan Yu's return every day.
In the end, what he was waiting for was a farewell letter written by Ruan Yu himself, saying that he had married her to let Xiaoxiao live a good life, and he would fail her in this life.
Fifth, the fragrance and jade damage send love to Xiling
A few years have passed, Su Xiaoxiao still can't let go of him, lovesickness is strong, lovesickness is in the bones, depression becomes illness, a serious illness, and he ends up with hatred.
Until she died, she was unable to see Ruan Yu for the last time.
She only lived to be 19 years old, and Su Xiaoxiao left her last words when she died: "Born in Xiling, died in Xiling, ambushed in Xiling, forgive me Su Xiaoxiao's seclusion." ”
In this life, only this Xiling has accompanied her from beginning to end and has not failed her.
Looking back on Su Xiaoxiao's life, although he was born rich and noble, he was displaced. Since ancient times, there has been a lot of life, but it is a pity that there is a lot of fate.
