Legend has it that in the last year of the Xia Dynasty, there were two divine dragons parked in front of the court of emperor Xia, who was the first king of the kingdom of Praise. Emperor Xia also divined, asking for dragon saliva to be stored before it was auspicious. So he displayed the jade drapery and wrote a letter to the dragon with a simple strategy, and after the dragon left, he left the dragon saliva behind, and Emperor Xia used a box to seal the dragon saliva for sealing. After the fall of the Xia Dynasty, this box passed through three dynasties, the Xia Dynasty, the Shang Dynasty, and passed to the Zhou Dynasty. By the last year of King Li of Zhou, it was opened. So the dragon saliva flowed to the palace and turned into a black lizard, sneaking into the harem of King Zhou Li. There was a maid in the harem, just seven or eight years old. When King Xuan of Zhou arrived, the maid became pregnant as an adult, and gave birth to a child without a husband, and she was afraid to abandon the child.
Due to a folk song that says that the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the country, because "a bow made of mulberry wood, a quiver made of miki wood." "There was a couple who sold mulberry bows and quivers, so King Xuan of Zhou wanted to kill them. On the way to escape, the couple met the girl abandoned by the maid, so they adopted her and fled to the country of Praise. In 779 BC, when King You of Zhou conquered the kingdom of Chu, the People of Zhou asked for a beautiful woman to be offered to King Zhou You, and this woman was Qiu You.

Beacon Theatre Princes
After King Zhou Youwang received praise, he was very fond of her. The following year, She gave birth to a son, Ji Bofu, for King You of Zhou. King You of Zhou deposed Queen Shen (the daughter of Marquis Shen of the State of Shen, and later king of Zhou You made her queen, so she was called Empress Shen) and crown prince Ji Yiusu (born to Empress Shen, i.e., King Ping of Zhou), and Made empress dowager and Ji Bofu crown prince.
Although it is beautiful, it does not like to laugh. Occasionally smiling, more gorgeous and charming, turned the charm of Zhou Youwang's fans upside down. For bomei people to laugh, King Zhou You sent out a heavy gold to find a magic plan, rewarding thousands of gold, so Yu Guoshi's father offered the strange plan of "Beacon Theater Princes".
"Beacon fire" is a military warning signal used in ancient times. Around the capital, as well as on the way to the important towns and fortresses, along the way, 20 to 30 miles apart, there are beacon towers built on the high ground, and there are non-commissioned officers waiting day and night. As soon as the enemy comes, raise a beacon to alarm. Raise a fire at night and smoke during the day (burning wolf dung produces thick smoke, so it is also known as wolf smoke). Beacon Wolf Smoke is the 100,000-hot military order to recruit the king of the whole country. Obviously, this is a major military measure that has a bearing on the security of the country and should not be taken lightly.
However, King Zhou You, bent on winning the favor of the concubines, actually followed the advice of the traitors and took pleasure in the soldiers. King Zhou You and Chu Yu climbed Mount Li and ordered a fire. For a time, the flames were raging and wolf smoke was everywhere. The princes and generals immediately commanded the men and horses, sounded the gold drums, and teams of men and horses came day and night, so that they were not mighty. But when they arrived at the capital, there was no war, let alone the enemy, only the king of Zhou You, who was riding a mountain with beautiful people to enjoy himself, and the princes of all walks of life were greatly discouraged when they learned the reason, and their hearts were angry, but they had no choice but to stop the flag and leave. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but laugh, and the King of You, seeing the beautiful and delicate smile, was very proud, but he didn't know that he had lost faith in the princes and soldiers.
After King You became queen, he deposed Shen and wanted to kill Prince Yibai. Yibai fled to Shenguo. Shen Hou was Yi Bai's maternal grandfather, so how could he hand over Yi Bai and let him be killed? The King of You then sent a large army to fight. In 771 BC, Shen Hou joined forces with Inuyasha against The King of You. The king of the shadows was in danger, and he raised a beacon to warn him. This time the sergeant was not deceived, and although the wolf smoke was everywhere, no princes and generals came to the rescue. He was taken captive by Inuyasha, and King You was killed under Mount Li (噱山, in present-day southeastern Lintong, Shaanxi). The edifice of the Western Zhou Dynasty finally fell. On the top of Li Mountain, the former site of the ancient beacon tower still exists, becoming a historical witness to the demise of the Western Zhou Dynasty, which was said to be the twelve kings and lasted for 257 years. Tourists come here in an endless stream, often lamenting the red face and the water.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > the famous Tang Dynasty poet Hu Zeng also wrote a poem about the country: "Pampered and pampered to get free, Lishan Beacon Fire Drama Princes." I only know that a smile is pouring into the country, and I don't feel that the dust is full of jade buildings. ”</h1>

From The Xia Dynasty's Concubine Xi and the Shang Dynasty's Su Daji to the Western Zhou Dynasty's Praise, history also calls these three beautiful women, the "three laughs of the fallen country" that fell into the city. Li Yannian, a famous musician in the Western Han Dynasty, once wrote a famous lyric, that is, "One gu pours people's city, and then cares about people's country."
Mei Xi lived in the last year of the Xia Dynasty, the daughter of the Shi clan, and the Xia Dynasty army defeated Youshi and gave her as a trophy to the monarch Xia Jie. The sister was happy with the heavens and the country, Xia Jie glanced at ten thousand years, and from then on, she ignored state affairs and single-mindedly stayed with it and sought pleasure. Sister Xi has a hobby, likes the sound of the silk drapery tearing, laughing while tearing. At that time, the handicraft industry was not developed, the materials were poor, and the silk veil was very precious, but in order to make a smile for the Beauty of the People, Xia Jie spent a lot of manpower and material resources to weave into a beautiful silk drapery and gave it to his sister to please her. Xia Jie's absurd behavior caused the people to be unhappy, and Cheng Tang led the people to resist and destroyed the Xia Dynasty.
Su Daji, the favorite of the Shang Dynasty King, was even more famous, and Daji liked to see people tortured and killed, and designed many cruel tortures. Chop the loyal servants into meat sauce and divide them into food, let Xi Bohou eat his own son's meat, guess the sex of pregnant women to break the abdomen and take the child, kill bi gan to see that there are seven tricks in the heart, and so on. Among the many tortures she loved most was "cannon burns". And Dai Ji just loves to see these people's dying struggles and miserable deaths, and will show a heart-warming smile after seeing them. Because of his indulgence in pleasure, the King of Lu was betrayed by many people, and the Shang Dynasty also went to the end.
The last woman who "fell into the country" is one of the protagonists of the "Beacon Theatre Princes" in this article-
From a historical point of view, it seems that it is not uncommon for pet concubines like Mei Xi, Dai Ji and Bao Ji to be like This, the so-called red face is a disaster. However, it is not advisable to blame them entirely on the cause of the demise of the dynasty, but to say that they are only a fuse for the destruction of the country, and mostly serve as a warning to future generations not to covet pleasure. Mei Xi, Dai Ji and Bao Ji all have similar life experiences - after their own country and tribe were defeated, they became chips for peace, which also shows that they are just a weak woman, involuntary, their fate is not in their own hands, they have been pushed down by history, but they have accelerated the renewal of history.
