The four beauties of ancient times, their beauty is outstanding but each has its own flaws, and Yang Guifei's defects are difficult to say
The reason why a beautiful woman is a beautiful woman is because of her perfect appearance, elegant demeanor, and proud temperament. People also have high demands on beautiful women, as if beautiful women do not eat human fireworks.
But no matter how beautiful the beauty, she is also born of mortals, people are impossible to be perfect, more or less have some defects. The four famous beauties of ancient China - Xi Shi, Wang Zhaojun, Marten Cicada, Yang Yuhuan, the beauty of these four beauties are sinking fish and falling geese, closed moon shy flowers.
Although their beauty is outstanding, they also have their own flaws, but some of them have defects that are still more difficult to talk about.
The first Xi Shi, surnamed Shi, was a beautiful woman of yueguo during the Spring and Autumn Period. After the defeat of the Yue King's war against the State of Wu, he adopted the strategy of the strategist Wenshu and sought beautiful women to train them to present to the King of Wu.
Xi Shi has the appearance of a sinking fish, she goes to the creek every day, her beauty will cause the fish to sink to the bottom, even when she is sick and heartache, she is very feminine, and also introduces the ugly girl Dong Shi to follow suit, which causes a joke.
Xi Shi was born beautiful in appearance and beautiful in posture, but he was born with two big feet. Although small feet are not popular in the Spring and Autumn period, women's feet are too large and unsightly. In order to cover up this defect, Xi Shi wore a long skirt to cover his big feet every day.
She also made herself a pair of clogs, her shoes were high, she couldn't see her feet when she was blocked by the skirt, and she hung a string of bells on her waist, and when she walked, the long skirt was biased, swaying, and the copper bell was crisp and pleasant.
Not only does it highlight Hera's figure, but listening to the bells, you know that a pleasing beauty is coming. But in fact, the foot is also good, not too big a defect.
The second Wang Zhaojun. Zhaojun was originally the daughter of a commoner, and her father Wang Xiang was very fond of her because of his old age. Zhaojun was beautiful and learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and when the Han Yuan Emperor selected a woman, she was the first choice for Nan County.
Zhaojun has the saying that the falling geese are because she often wears a cape, and the cape has warm feathers sewn on the shoulders, so that the geese mistakenly think that it is a bird's nest, so they fall closer to her.
Why does Zhaojun always wear a cape, because she is slipping on her shoulders, resulting in the clothing can not be supported, it looks like the head-to-body ratio is very incongruous.
So she put something on her shoulders, raised her shoulders, and put on a cape to make her look like a unique temperament. The cape is decorated with feathers to make it look better.
And the shoulder pad invented by Zhaojun is still used by people to this day.
The third mink cicada. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the mink cicada was the righteous daughter of the Situ Wang Yun family at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and was used by the powerful group at that time as a beauty plan, circling between Dong Zhuo and Lü Bu.
It is also said that Lü Bu's subordinate Qin Yilu's ex-wife Du Shi was a mink cicada.
The mink cicada is not only beautiful, but also good at singing, and it is said that the bright white moonlight can not match her beauty, so everyone describes the mink cicada as having a closed moon appearance.
But this moonlit face could not reach the world, but gave birth to a small earlobe. The earlobes are large and the flesh is thick, which is considered blessed, so what about the small earlobes of the mink cicada?
So she wears large earrings to cover the size of the ear itself, visually enlarging the contour of the ear and making her look more feminine.
In fact, the defects of the first three beauties are not nothing, as long as they are slightly modified, they can be reconciled, but the defects of the fourth beauty Yang Yuhuan are difficult to talk about.
We all know that Yang Guifei loves bathing, and in order to satisfy her hobbies, Tang Xuanzong also built a Huaqing Pond for her so that she could take a bath comfortably. So why does she love to bathe so much? Because she had a fox smell on her.
Fox stink is also an embarrassing thing for many people today. Either take a lot of showers or cover up the smell with perfume. Yang Guifei did the same.
It is said that Yang Guifei's beauty, even the peony flowers are ashamed of themselves, but a good beauty has the problem of fox odor.
In order to better serve the emperor, she picked the most fragrant flowers every day for bathing, and also smoked clothes with various precious spices, so that she could cover her fox smell very well.
The most expensive spice is musk, as long as you put a little indoors, you can make the whole house fragrant, and the fragrance lasts for a long time. It is said that too much musk will cause infertility in women.
Zhao Feiyan put a muscle pill into the navel in order to keep her body slim, and the basic ingredient of the pill was musk. Therefore, Fei Yan could not give birth to a child at that time. And Yang Guifei did not give birth to Tang Xuanzong's children, perhaps because she used musk to cover up the fox odor.
Although Yang Yuhuan is fat, with a height of one meter and sixty-four, and weighs one hundred and thirty-eight pounds, in the Tang Dynasty, where fat is beautiful, fat is not a defect, but a good thing, but it is not so much fat as plump.
The four beauties are all flawed, not to mention ordinary people, just so-called: gold has no bare feet, and no one is perfect.
