Yang Guifei was favored for 16 years
Contemporary popular aesthetic is white and thin, online appearance birth color stars and Internet celebrities are basically developing in this direction, ordinary people have begun to lose weight blindly, obviously already very thin or thin to the extreme.
Especially on the Internet, as long as the stars are slightly fatter, they begin to attack indiscipline and disrespectful, the deformed aesthetic does not know when it can be improved, and the slightly fat girls are placed in the Tang Dynasty but they are at the level of big beauties, just like Yang Yuhuan.
Still
The history books record that she was "known for her flesh, and it was hot in the summer", and for thin people, Yang Yuhuan's body shape was fat, but she could fascinate Li Longji.
Pampered for 16 years, even for the lychees she loves to eat, she even spends a lot of manpower and material resources to transport, which shows how long-lasting this love is.
Along with Xi Shi, Wang Zhaojun and Sable Cicada, Yang Guifei was known as the Four Beauties of Ancient China, and the only one of her several people who married her son was also called her father's concubine.
Since she was a child, her father died and was fostered in the family of the third uncle, but she has shown different temperaments since she was a child, and her natural beauty and superior educational environment have made Yang Yuhuan have a certain cultural literacy and has little achievements in the rhythm of song and dance.
When attending the wedding of Princess Xianyi, she was immediately favored by Li Mao, the King of Shou, but after the death of her mother-in-law, Tang Xuanzong was depressed, and heard that her daughter-in-law "had a good posture, and It was advisable to fill the court" to summon her to the harem, and began the road of favoration.
A favorite concubine who loves lychees
If only her favorite performance was the delivery of lychees. In modern society, there are trucks and planes, and the goods that need to be kept fresh can be transported by cold chain logistics, so tropical fruits can be eaten thousands of miles away in the north, but in the ancient times when the conditions were scarce, it was not so easy, and it could even be said that it was difficult to ascend to the sky.
During that period, there was a war ahead, and the emperor who was far away in the capital city needed several days to obtain intelligence.
Even if there are special personnel responsible for passing on the news, riding a horse takes time, so the delivery of lychees is indeed the most obvious manifestation of the monopoly.
Because the pet concubine loves to eat lychees, a department has been set up to send lychees, and the best food for this fruit will be fresh and the relevant personnel will be just picked and packed, and a station and a station will be quickly sent to the capital.
During this period, the horses may be exhausted or there may be similar transport personnel, which is not as important as Yang Yuhuan's smile in Tang Xuanzong's eyes. So the question is, why does she love to eat lychees?
Modern science has developed rapidly, and now we know that lychees contain a variety of nutrients, moisture and vitamin proteins, etc. are good for the human body.
Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" records: "Shi ganping is non-toxic... Indications for thirst quenching, beneficial to people's color, food to quench thirst, head irritability, back and chest fatigue, theosophical, nootropic, healthy qi, cure fistula tumors, red swelling and boils, children's acne. ”
Summer consumption of summer heat is a must-have, in addition to the nutrients in the fruit also help to adjust the skin tone, long-term eating lychee may be the reason for Yang Yuhuan's "skin like gel".
Trace elements such as vitamin proteins contained in it help the skin maintain elasticity and collagen to prevent skin aging, and also help to fade spots, which has a certain cosmetic effect.
Yang Yuhuan's appearance is becoming more and more gorgeous Tang Xuanzong is more and more pampered, and he is more and more indulgent in eating lychees, the three complement each other, some netizens said: Or Li Longji will play, which is equivalent to cultivating a beauty himself.
Although he was favored for 16 years, he was eventually forced to execute Yang Yuhuan. The soldiers on the slope of Ma Song mutinied and had to abandon her if they wanted to continue to be emperor.
Later, the history books described Yang Guifei as a noble concubine who brought calamity to the country and the people, perhaps she was also a poor person, and it may not be fair to blame all the inevitable results of historical development on women, but these have become history, Ren later generations commented.
Do you think Yang Yuhuan is innocent? Welcome to discuss in the comments section.
