In the Tang Dynasty, Mei Fei was more attractive than Yang Guifei.

Yang Guifei and Mei Fei became two wonderful flowers standing side by side in Xuanzong's harem. Mei Fei is like a plum blossom, elegant and noble; Yang Yuhuan is like a peony, plump and delicate. These two people are thin and fat, elegant and charming, and the combination of dynamic and static forms a sharp contrast. At this time, Tang Xuanzong, who was over 60 years old, had already distinguished the level of Yang Yuhuan and Mei Fei.

Today, most people know Yang Guifei, but I'm afraid not many people know Jiang Caiping. In fact, Yang Guifei and Jiang Caiping were a pair of rivals among the 72 concubines in the Third Palace and Sixth Hospital of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty.

Jiang Caiping, a native of Mei Fei, was born in Jiangdong Village, Putian, Fujian. His father, Jiang Zhongxun, is a scholar who has read a lot of poetry books and a doctor who helps the world. Jiang Caiping is the only daughter in the family. She is clever and witty, and she can recite many famous poems at the age of 9. She 15 years old wrote a good article, and her eight poems were even read in the local area for some time. She was a famous talented woman at that time and was known as the first female poet in Fujian.

Versatile Jiang Caiping is not only good at poetry, but also proficient in musical instruments, singing and dancing. She is also charming and beautiful, with an extraordinary temperament. She is a strange girl with both talent and beauty.

It coincides with the prosperity of Xuanzong Kaiyuan, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the prosperity of the four seas. There are sages inside and famous generals outside, which made them prosperous. At this time, Xiao Shufei, who was deeply loved by Xuanzong, died unfortunately. Tang Xuanzong attached great importance to the relationship between husband and wife. Although there are thousands of harem beauties, he has a soft spot for Xiao Shufei. Xiao Shufei's death made Tang Xuanzong grieved and haggard. Tang Xuanzong wanted to find another sustenance under great yearning.

A eunuch named Gao Lishi, seeing the sadness of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, was naturally worried, worried that Emperor Xuanzong could not afford to be ill. So he urged Xuanzong to recruit beautiful women from all over the world to change his sad mood and cheer up again. Xuanzong adopted his suggestion. Gao Lishi was ordered to choose a female student, went to Fujian and Guangdong in person, and found Jiang Caiping who had just arrived. He suspected that she was a heaven and a treasure. Then he took her into the palace to wait on Tang Xuanzong.

At that time, Jiang Caiping couldn't hide her flowery appearance even with light makeup. Her gentle and elegant words and graceful manners, like a cup of mellow tea, instantly captured the heart of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. Xuanzong loved her dearly and regarded many harem beauties at that time as dust, only spoiling Jiang Caiping.

Mei Fei entered the palace earlier than Yang Guifei 19 years, and her exquisite, beautiful and elegant style made Xuanzong sincerely admire and fall in love. Jiang Caiping, a quiet, elegant and dignified Ming Xiu, loved plum blossoms as much as she did since she was a child, so Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty named her Mei Fei and planted various plum trees in the palace where she lived. Whenever plum blossoms are in full bloom, she is with Mei Fei, enjoying flowers and writing poems.

However, when the plump, glamorous and coquettish Yang Guifei appeared, Xuanzong began to see things in a blur.

Yang Guifei and Mei Fei became two wonderful flowers standing side by side in Xuanzong's harem. Mei Fei is like a plum blossom, elegant and noble; Yang Yuhuan is like a peony, plump and delicate. These two people are thin and fat, elegant and charming, and the combination of dynamic and static forms a sharp contrast. At this time, Tang Xuanzong, who was over 60 years old, had already distinguished the level of Yang Yuhuan and Mei Fei. For more than ten years, he has been facing narcissistic, elegant and noble Mei Fei, and now his aesthetic fatigue inevitably reduces his interest. Yang Guifei's sudden appearance is not only full of sexiness and cuteness, but also her charming expression and lively personality, like a blazing fire, stirring the Tang Xuanzong, who is old and unwilling to get old.

In this way, Yang Guifei and Mei Fei naturally engaged in infighting. One wants to hold his position, and the other wants to occupy it. The fighting was extremely fierce.

The battle with them began with a poem.

Let's first look at a poem written by Mei Fei:

Chu Yun stays under Wushan Mountain, and Nangong has a beautiful night;

Who can be like the moon with ice muscles and the half king of Meijiang?

This poem, ostensibly admiring Yang Guifei's beauty, actually satirizes that she was originally the daughter-in-law of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, regardless of human relations, and even went to bed with her father-in-law, confusing the emperor, delaying political affairs and mocking her as fat as the moon. In fact, what Mei Fei said at that time was true.

Yang saw, immediately fight back:

Has the beauty been reduced by spring, and the plum blossom snow has been reduced by halal;

Generally, teachers borrow spring grass instead of competing with flowers.

This poem means that Mei Fei is thin, and she is too favored. How can she compare with the flowers in the Spring Festival?

Tang Xuanzong did not applaud Mei Fei's poems, but Yang Guifei's. Yang Guifei's beauty is a different kind of amorous feelings, which fascinated Tang Xuanzong. He shifted all his thoughts to Yang Guifei and gradually ignored Mei Fei. Mei Fei's love has been in trouble ever since. While being left out in the cold, she has to bear the constant criticism and false accusation of Yang Guifei in front of Xuanzong. Later, Mei Fei was finally forced to move into the East Palace of Shang Yang, and lived a miserable life like a cold palace.

At this time, Yang Guifei invited the elder sister Mrs. Han, the third sister Mrs. Guo and the eighth sister Mrs. Qin. The four of them are like four fragrant flowers, surrounded by Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, white and colorful, full of fantasy, which makes Xuanzong, who is old, glow with youth; They are like four bees, absorbing the essence of Tang Xuanzong like collecting pollen. Tang Xuanzong played with them all day and was too busy to attend to state affairs. He even forgot that Mei Fei was in Shang Yang East Palace.

However, after all, Mei Fei and Yang Guifei have different styles and tastes, one is meat and the other is vegetarian. After the excessive fragrance of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, he couldn't help thinking of elegance. After a period of time, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty never saw Mei Fei again, so he thought of Mei Fei and Mei Fei from time to time. In the season when plum blossoms are in full bloom, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty strolled through the plum garden, looking at the flowers and thinking about people, feeling a tender feeling and unforgettable acacia, with a touch of sadness, a sense of guilt and a desire to see Mei Fei. One night, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty did not go to Yang Guifei's palace for fear that Yang Guifei would know. He stayed alone in Cuihuage, and sent a close-fitting little eunuch to ride a horse and carry Mei Fei after him.

Since it is your majesty's favor, why do you come in the dark at night? Why are you so afraid of that fat woman as the king of a country? Although Mei Fei was timid, he couldn't bear to keep Xuanzong waiting, so he rode to Xiting, Cui Hua. An old pair of mandarin ducks embraced in one place again, endlessly lingering and wandering.

Yang Guifei still knows about it. Without waiting for the announcement, Yang Guifei pushed the door into Cui Hua Xiting and asked Xuanzong: Where did you hide Mei Jing? Xuanzong pretended as if nothing had happened and replied: Isn't this Shang Yang East Palace? When Yang Guifei saw that Tang Xuanzong refused to pay the bill, the topic changed. She said, Why don't you come? Let's go to Lishan Hot Spring! Say Xuanzong prevaricated, at a loss. Yang Guifei said seriously, it's a mess here. There is a woman named Chai Jin under the bed, and there is a fragrance on the pillow. Who will sleep for your majesty tonight? Why don't you sleep until sunrise, and your majesty can see the minister? She actually said that my concubine should stay here until Tang Xuanzong came back from the court.

Tang Xuanzong became angry from embarrassment and was livid, but instead of shouting, he fell asleep and resisted. After all, Yang Guifei is smart, and she is afraid that things will get stiff and she can't clean up. She showed off her housekeeping skills, pretended to be crazy and charming, cried a lot, and then left angrily and went back to her mother's house.

Shortly after Yang Guifei returned to her family, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was heartbroken and sent a servant to take her back to the palace. It is said that it took three times to get her back.

Of course, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty sometimes had unforgettable old feelings, and often treated Mei Fei with a pity and compensation attitude. On one occasion, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty tasted lychee and thought of Mei Fei, so he sent someone to send a string of pearls. When Mei Fei saw these pearls, he was moved by this scene and was extremely sad. He wrote a poem and returned it to Tang Xuanzong with pearls. As the poem says: Liu Ye's eyebrows have not been traced for a long time, her makeup is still broken and her eyes are red with tears. Nagato is naturally unadorned, so why should pearls comfort loneliness?

This poet is called Huzhu.

Life is fleeting, and youth is gone. Mei Fei spent 65,438+00 years in the East Palace of Shang Yang. She doesn't know whether there are traces of Mei Fei in Xuanzong's heart. She thinks that if the old feelings of the emperor are not forgotten, Mei Fei will have a glimmer of hope. Therefore, she wrote an essay "Ode to the East" to express many feelings in her heart.

It is said that this poem describes her miserable mood in Shang Yang's East Palace and expresses her dissatisfaction with Emperor Xuanzong and her longing for a new life. However, not only did it not help, but it was almost killed. If it hadn't touched the loving heart of Xuanzong, I'm afraid she would have died at the instigation of Yang Guifei.

In this battle for love, Yang Guifei's side is crowded and the limelight is flourishing; On the other hand, Mei Fei is outnumbered and has been completely defeated.

Later, the Anshi Rebellion broke out, and Tang Xuanzong fled to the southwest with Yang Guifei. Later, Yang Guifei was forced to die in Maweipo. Mei Fei, who was left in the palace, in order not to be insulted by traitors and to keep his innocence, wrapped himself in layers of white cloth and jumped off the ancient well to die.

More than 65,438+0,000 years later, people in my hometown still miss her, called Zugu Huangfei, and built a statue of a palace as a sacrifice. The name of the palace is Pukou Palace. The palace is resplendent and magnificent, with eight large stone pillars supporting the huge roof arch structure, and the shrine guardrail is hollowed out with wood carvings, which are extremely beautiful and attract many tourists to pay their respects. In the old days, the couplet at the entrance of Yamen in Xinghua Prefecture read: Litchi is the best in the world, and Mei Fei is the Ministry of the People.
