We all know that there were four beautiful women in ancient China, namely Xi Shi, Wang Zhaojun, Marten Cicada, and Yang Yuhuan, all of whom bloomed like flowers in their own dynasties. Xi Shi is even listed as the "first of the four beautiful women", which shows how charming Xi Shi's charm is.
According to historical records, Xi Shi was a Yue national in the Spring and Autumn Period, and she was born in The Village of Rama mountain in Zhuji City, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province. Xi Shi was not only beautiful, but also extremely intelligent. Nowadays, Xi Shi is simply a strong woman with beauty and wisdom.
In that era when princes competed for hegemony and large countries annexed small countries, such a beautiful woman as Xi Shi would not have left much footprint in history. However, as the dispute between the Yue and Wu kingdoms continued, the Yue kingdom was finally defeated and thus declared vassals to the wu state. Thus was the story of the Yue King's conspiracy to lie down and taste the guts, and finally restore the country.
"Those who have the will will do it. Broken cauldron sinks the boat, and the hundred and two Qin Guans eventually belong to Chu. The bitter hearted people do not bear the burden, lie down and taste the guts, and three thousand Yue Jia can swallow Wu. Although the story of the Yue King's restoration is very inspiring, the story of the restoration of the country is inseparable from the help of a woman from beginning to end, and this person is Xi Shi.
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, the beauty plan had already been used, and this plan was also used to restore the country. In 494 BC, Fu Cha defeated the State of Yue at Fu Jiao (in present-day southwest of Wu County, Jiangsu Province), and the King of Yue retreated to Huishan (present-day ShaoxingNan, Zhejiang Province), besieged by Wu forces, and was forced to seek peace with the State of Wu, and Gou Jian entered Wu as a hostage.
After Gou Jian arrived in the State of Wu, he carefully observed wu Wangfuchai's disposition, and was well aware of his weakness of being obscene and lustful, and the doctor Wen Zi offered Gou Jian seven strategies to destroy Wu, the most poisonous of which was the beauty plan. Subsequently, Gou Jian and Fan Li designed and dedicated the temperamental Xi Shi and the charming Zheng Dan to King Wu.
Before the implementation of the beauty plan, Fan Li specially went to the whole country to look for beautiful women, came to the village of Ramie, and met Zheng Dan and Xi Shi, a pair of sister flowers. When Fan Li saw Xi Shi, she was attracted by her beauty. It is said that Fan Li also expressed his love for Xi Shi, and Xi Shi also had a strong love for Fan Li.
When Fan Li brought Xi Shi and Zheng Dan back to Huiji, taught Xi Shi to dance, and was preparing to give them to Wu Wangfu after the training, Yue Wang Yigong said: "A true beauty must have three conditions, one is beauty, the other is good at singing and dancing, and the third is posture. Xi Shi only had the first condition, and lacked the other two. So the Yue King spent three years teaching song and dance, walking, etiquette, and so on. ”
Xi Shi studied dance diligently in the past three years, and was trained by an experienced palace girl, and soon Xi Shi showed physical beauty and treated people and things very decently. Not long after, Xi Shi gave it to Wu Wang Fuchai, and when he saw Xi Shi, Wu Wang was completely intoxicated by Xi Shi's beauty.
In order to win Xi Shi's heart, Wu Wang Fucha built the Spring Supper Palace in Gusu, built a large pond, set up a green dragon boat in the pool, and Ri and Xi Shi were water plays; in addition, they also built a pavilion for them to perform songs, dances and feasts, such as pavilions and spiritual halls, Xi Shi was good at dancing the "Ringing Dance", and Fu cha built a "Ringing Corridor" for her.
Once the king indulges in female sex, the country will not be far from extinction. King Wu is a typical example of this, and after he had Xi Shi, he no longer paid attention to the government. Slowly losing interest in Gou Jian, he put Gou Jian back to Yue Guo, not knowing that this was the prelude to the demise.
After Gou Jian returned to the Yue Kingdom, he saw the ruined homeland and began the difficult years of "lying down and tasting the guts", and finally the Emperor Did not pay off, and some of the decrees of Gou Jian made the Yue Kingdom quickly stronger. As a result, it can be imagined that the Yue King, who had committed a disgrace to the former snow, completely flattened the State of Wu and did not give the State of Wu a chance to survive.
After the fall of the State of Wu, Xi Shi, as the first great hero of the State of Yue, disappeared. In some historical materials of the Spring and Autumn Period, there are almost no records of Xi Shi's whereabouts. Some people once said that Xi Shi was killed by Gou Jian, and he thought that Xi Shi was too beautiful, a red face and a disaster, and could not stay in the world.
If Xi Shi had not died at the hands of King Wu, he would probably have died at the hands of Gou Jian. As an important leader of the restoration of the country, how could he be overshadowed by such a woman as Xi Shi? Xi Shi is only a tool for the use of gouge, and when she has no use value, naturally there is no meaning of existence, and there is no doubt that she is just a political victim.
