One of the four beauties of ancient China, Wang Zhaojun married a father and son
Wang Zhaojun, a court maid of the Han Dynasty, had a bad fate. The first husband Jun Xian died, and became the wife of the eldest son. The second husband died, and following tradition, she married the brother of her deceased husband.
has experienced three male hosts in his life, Wang Zhaojun, one of the four beauties in Chinese history.
Wang Zhaojun, a woman born in a civilian family, was born beautiful, knew everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was elected to the court with outstanding talent and became a show girl. According to the rules of the palace, every beautiful woman had to accept the portrait of the painter, and the emperor would choose the object of favor according to the portrait.
In order to get the emperor's favor, the beauties bribed the painter Mao Yanshou, but this painter was a villain who only looked at money, and only had power and wealth in his eyes.
Wang Zhaojun is not afraid of power, firmly believes in his beauty, and refuses to bribe Mao Yanshou. However, in order to avenge his personal revenge, Mao Yanshou deliberately scandalized her eyes on the portrait of Wang Zhaojun, resulting in her failing to win the favor of Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty.
In the end, she could only silently endure loneliness and grief in the cold palace.
When the turn of fate appeared, the envoys of the Xiongnu came to the Han Dynasty and asked Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty to make peace a symbol of the relationship between the two countries. Even though it was a poor and remote area, no one wanted to marry it.
However, Wang Zhaojun showed righteousness and was willing to make sacrifices for the country, and she took the initiative to ask to go out and make peace. In the pre-departure summons, Emperor Yuan of Han realized that the beauty in front of him had captivated the country and the city, but it was too late.
Zhaojun finally went to the Xiongnu and married Huhan Evil Shan Yu, which is the legend of "Zhaojun out of the fortress".
Wang Zhaojun left the Central Plains, reconciled with his lover Qin Se, and had a son. However, not long after, Hu Han Xie Shan unfortunately passed away, and Zhaojun was concerned about his homeland and pleaded with Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty. In order to ensure the tranquility of the frontier, the Han Emperor replied with the principle of "following the customs", and Zhaojun followed the customs, and then remarried to Xinshan Yu, leaving his thoughts and distant places alone.
The eldest son of Hu Han Xie Shan Yu, married Wang Zhaojun, they respected each other like guests, lived together for eleven years, and had two lovely daughters. However, after Fuzhu's death, Wang Zhaojun was forced to marry his younger brother, and in the face of such humiliation, she suffered greatly and was depressed all day long, and soon died.
Zhaojun and his relatives for 50 years, the border was peaceful, after her death, the grass in the north was white, only the grass on the tomb of Zhaojun was green, known as the green mound. However, whether the plot of these folklore is true or not still needs to be further investigated.
The story of Wang Zhaojun originates from history and has evolved and enriched over the years.
In 33 BC, Wang Zhaojun was elected to the palace as a woman from a good family, and was later given to marry Huhan Evil Shan Yu because of the Xiongnu's courtship. After the death of Huhan Yedan, she married her eldest son Fu Zhu Ti, and remained alone and widowed until her death.
This is the real story of Zhaojun's exit from the fortress in history.
Although the folk have done a lot of processing and embellishment of Wang Zhaojun's story, the core idea has not changed. It turned out that in the "Book of Han", Wang Zhaojun was just an ordinary palace maid, but the processed "Qin Cao" described her as a beautiful woman who captivated the country and the city.
Later, the plot of Zhaojun's "self-invitation to go out" was added, although the historical records called Han Xie Shan Yu to meet in person, and the emperor appointed Wang Zhaojun to marry, but in the pen of the ** family, the image of Wang Zhaojun taking the initiative to marry was strengthened to reflect his spirit of deep righteousness.
However, the most outrageous thing is the story about Wang Zhaojun's beauty, but he was deliberately ugly by the painter and was not favored, which is pure fiction, and Mao Yanshou inexplicably took the blame because of this.
* The continuous interpretation of family and folklore makes Wang Zhaojun's image more and more full. She is portrayed as a gentle, elegant and virtuous three-dimensional character, and interprets what it means to serve the country and the people with her behavior.
For thousands of years, Wang Zhaojun's spirit has been praised by poets and families, and her deeds have become a legend in the history of the Chinese nation, forever illuminating future generations.
