What is the allusion of "Xu Niang people are still charming when they reach middle age"?

Xu Niang is the tour guide for Xu Zhaopei, the empress of Emperor Liang Yuan. "Southern History": "Although Xu Niang is old, he is still affectionate." Later, it was used to refer to middle-aged and elderly women who were still attractive.

Xu Zhaopei was the partial princess of Xiao Yi, the seventh son of Liang Wudi in the Southern Dynasties. Xiao Yi was the king of eastern Hunan at that time, and he was heavily guarding Jiangling. Xu Zhaopei flew to the forest in a butterfly, red flowers were blown away by the wind, Hua Die was endless, and lycopene was still in chaos. Ling Chiang is a very active woman. The allusion of "Xu Niang is over 500 years old and still has charm" is on her.

Xiao Yi, the king of eastern Hunan, loved literature since childhood, but lost interest in politics. Influenced by his father, Xiao Yi wore cloth and only ate beans and mutton. Just as Liang Wudi set up a stone forest pavilion in the west of Jiankang City to expand the collection of scholars' lectures, Xiao Yi is also on the beautiful riverside, laughing and laughing with literati every day.

Xu Zhaopei is beautiful, intelligent and good at poetry. She is in love, and she is full of passion. This is when she needs love. Although she dresses up beautifully every day, she can't get rid of Xiao Yi's feelings. So she is depressed and unhappy and doesn't know how to deal with herself.

The most direct way is to accept her husband's lifestyle and try to break into her husband's interest circle. As a result, she changed her normal state, went to her husband's poetry and wine party without makeup, and often paid for literary friends around Xiao Yi, which made her spiritual field and emotional life develop and extricate herself to a considerable extent.

Although her beauty and talent have been objectively affirmed by the people, Xiao Yi is still unmoved, so Xu Zhaopei throws a pair of powerful drugs in her husband and wife's life even more violently, deliberately only half her face, which is called "half dressing up".

A woman only applies powder, rouge and lipstick to half her face. Think about it, not only ruining her beauty, but also deliberately abusing other people's eyes. On the other hand, Xu Zhaopei wants to vent her anger and injustice and even humiliate Xiao Yi.

The maids were afraid that Xu Fei's vicious actions would disgust the prince and even have terrible consequences in anger. However, Xu Zhaopei reassured the maids. She said, "Your Majesty and his son stress benevolence, righteousness and morality, and will never burn a harp and cook a crane for such a trivial matter. At most, they will only be expelled from the palace, out of sight, out of mind. In this way, instead of maintaining a nominal husband and wife life, it is better to choose someone else to get married. " Who knows that Xiao Yi's accomplishment has really reached the point of perfection, although he clearly knew that Xu Zhaopei deliberately wanted him to be angry, but he turned a blind eye as if nothing had happened.

In this way, several years have passed.

At that time, the reason why Liang Wudi proclaimed himself emperor was that "the heavenly heart cannot be violated and the people's hearts cannot be lost". When the Southern Qi Dynasty was destroyed, he began to pay attention to making great efforts to govern the country, observing politics and listening to rumors, delaying visits to sages and learning female music; Especially, because I am frugal, I am simple in food and clothes. In order to listen to people's feelings, I set up a stone next to the wood to make my feelings better, so there was a peaceful atmosphere everywhere. However, the biggest weakness of his old man's house is his admiration for Buddhism. It is said that the scar on the monk's head originated in Liang Wudi. Liang Wudi became a monk three times and was redeemed three times to become an emperor again. In addition to chanting scriptures every day, he often goes to Tongtai Temple to give lectures, often day and night, and it takes seven or eight days to come to an end. At that time, the number of monks and nuns in China was only half of the national population. There are more than 500 Buddhist temples in Jiankang alone. Liang Wudi has never had the ambition to unify China and clarify the world. State affairs became a mere formality, which eventually led to chaos.

Hou Jing was the satrap of the Central Plains in the Northern Dynasties and the Eastern Wei Dynasty. He came to Henan because of the estrangement with Gao Cheng, the prime minister of the Eastern Wei Dynasty. This is a good thing, but Liang Wudi kept the villain waiting for the situation to reverse. At the beginning of Hou Jing's rebellion, Liang Wudi said brazenly, "What can we do?" I broke my whip to catch it. Health lost, Liang Wudi died in prison. "。

After the pacification, Xiao Yi became Emperor Liang Yuan in Jiangling, and Xu Zhaopei was posthumously made an imperial concubine. However, Xiao Yi still hasn't changed his habit and still likes reading literature. He often teaches Laozi, Zhuangzi and Daojing with civil and military officials for a long time. Xu Zhaopei is still lonely in the palace, and his youth is wasted. At this point, she is nearly old.

Xiao Yi turned a deaf ear to the harem beauties, and people in the palace searched for emotional outlets in succession. Xu Zhaopei finally could not hold back under the general trend. She found a beautiful young Yoshioka with beautiful eyes and elegant manners. At first I kept it a secret, but then it was made public. Whenever Xiao Yi talks with ministers about the way of Zhuangzi in the Dragon Hall, it is also the time when Xu Guifei and Yoshioka enjoy themselves in the palace garden.

Someone once jokingly asked Yoshioka, "What's that smell?" Yoshioka replied without hesitation: "Xu Niang is old and still affectionate." Or answer: Although Xu Niang is old, her charm still exists! Later generations described the amorous feelings of middle-aged women as undiminished, and often said, "Xu Niang is half-old, and her charm still exists." This is where it came from.

Yoshioka's frivolous words soon reached the ears of Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang Yuan. Strangely, he was still indifferent, and everyone around him was angry about it, but he was helpless.

Emperor Yuan of Liang stayed in Jiangling for a long time and did not return to Jiankang, which made the Western Wei Dynasty bordering Liang panic. Because Jiangling was close to the Western Wei Dynasty, he thought Xiao Yi was going to attack the Western Wei Dynasty, so he urgently organized troops to prepare for attacking Jiangling. According to the estimation of the Western Wei Dynasty, it was the best policy for Xiao Yi, Emperor of Liang Yuan, to jump south to build health. Surrender from Zicheng and wait for reinforcements is the middle policy; If it is difficult to move, it is the best policy to defend Jiangling. After careful deployment, General Yu Jin of the Western Wei Dynasty led 50,000 troops to catch up with Jiangling.

In fact, the emperor, who doesn't even love his wife and can't even eat vinegar because of her infidelity, has no idea what is the best policy, what is the middle policy and what is the worst policy. He is simply immersed in Zhuangzi's way. When the Western Wei army besieged Jiangling, he even called hundreds of officials to talk about Zhuangzi and Zhuangzi. Enemy soldiers rushed to attack the city pool, and he went to the city to be nearsighted and retaliated with poetry. There are even people who sing in chorus among the ministers, which is so pedantic. I can't help but sigh. Nancheng has fallen, and the flames are soaring. When Xiao Yi came to the Bamboo Hall of the East Pavilion, he ordered the burning of140,000 ancient and modern books. He also slammed the bamboo column with his sword and sighed: "The martial arts are exhausted tonight!"

What about Xu Zhaopei? She hugged her lover and Ji Qiang tightly in the harem. She thought the seas dried up and the rocks crumbled, but Yoshioka heard that the capital had been breached. At this critical moment, she broke away from her lover's arms without nostalgia and fled without a trace. Xu Zhaopei was heartbroken and burst into tears. At this moment, Xiao Yi came to her side, and Xu Zhaopei hugged her emperor husband crazily. It's remorse, it's asking for help, and unclear feelings come to mind together. Xiao Yi, the Emperor of Liang Yuan, was shaking desperately. After a long time, Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang Yuan coldly asked, "What about that man?" Xu Zhaopei was speechless. Xiao Yi said helplessly, "water under the bridge. What's left? "

Xu Zhaopei's heart was broken and his tears dried up. At the first sound of the morning cock, Wei Bing entered the city on a large scale and hanged himself under the grape trellis in the palace.
