The protagonist of this article: Mao Xiang, the character to break the frontier, the late Ming and early Qing dynasty literary scholars, one of the four princes of the late Ming Dynasty.
Mao Xiangsheng was born in the thirty-ninth year of the Ming Dynasty Wanli Calendar, the social environment of that meeting was no longer good, and the rivers of the Ming Dynasty were declining, and the car could not be stopped. Fortunately, it is good to risk xiangsheng, and the family has been a high official for generations.
Born in a scholarly family, an official eunuch's house, education is naturally not bad. Mao Xiang had been reading with his grandfather, who was an official since he was a child, and was really the material for reading, people came out with their own poetry collections at the age of 14, and some celebrities compared him to Wang Bo in the early Tang Dynasty. Born well, reading sticks, needless to say that in the future will definitely be the material for being a big official.
As a result, I did not expect that in more than ten years, I participated in the township examination six times before and after the risk, but I did not win! At a young age, the poetry collection was published, and the talents that celebrities had high hopes for could not even win the single person, which was a bit embarrassing. Although it should not be a problem of His own ability, this depressed thing has been encountered, and it is inevitable that his heart will not fall into embarrassment.
Huai Cai did not meet, a body of ability can not be exercised, watching the Ming Dynasty program fall into decline, this literati can not be anxious in their hearts! I always had to do something, and later I joined the Fu Society, known as one of the "Four Princes".
This "four sons" and the "four young people in beijing" in previous years are by no means the same thing. They are progressive young people who are like-minded, chanting poems and paintings together, commenting on current politics, and worrying about the country and the people, not the crap of today.
What really amazes him is his legendary personal emotional life.
"Dew couple" this is not counted, there is only evidence, there are more than a dozen women and Mao Xiang have emotional entanglements, the key to these more than ten women are not ordinary people ah.
"Doll kiss" wife Su Yuanfang
Mao Xiang became a relative at the age of 19, and his wife is a doll relative set by the family, of course, this doll kiss is not bad at all. Su Yuanfang's family is also an official, and she is still a talented girl, a very powerful painter, she has two sons and a daughter to Mao Xiang.
Su Yuanfang
The first "extramarital love", or two!
Mao Xiang married at the age of 19 and met the Song Andre King Festival on the banks of the Qinhuai River the following year. This Qinhuai River Wang family has three sisters, Wang Jie is one of the second oldest, is notoriously outstanding posture.
The Festival of the King
While knowing and interacting with Wang Jie, Mao Xiang also met another famous prostitute who was also in the Qinhuai River: Li Xiangzhen. It is said that Li Xiangzhen is well-behaved and clever, with fair skin, especially a pair of large eyes.
It is said that Li Xiangzhen is not very dedicated, always pretending to be sick, not much grooming. But since I met this confidant, I was busy. During the six times when Xiang Xiang participated in the township examination, he was with Li Xiangzhen at night. Every day when I went to bed, people were still busy sneaking up on the manuscript, and completed 30 high-quality articles in a month!
"Qin Huai Eight Yan" got the second!
In the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, when Hexiang was passing through Suzhou, he heard a friend talk about the beautiful Chen Yuanyuan, and went to meet him. It doesn't matter at first sight, it's love at first sight! I don't have to say that I am not going to say anything, anyway, when I leave, I will not give up, and I will come back in the autumn.
Chen Yuanyuan
As a result, when the autumn went, Chen Yuanyuan was bought! It is said that Chen Yuanyuan was so outstanding that he was bought and wanted to give it to the Chongzhen Emperor, but in the end he became Wu Sangui's little one. Later, there was the story of Wu Sangui rushing to the crown and becoming angry and red-faced. In short, in the end Chen Yuanyuan and Mao Xiang did not form a pair.
In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, another prostitute in QinhuaiHe, Dong Xiaowan, was from Liang. Dong Xiaowan is also Chen Yuanyuan's sister, ranked among the "Eight Yans of Qin Huai", and was also acquainted with Mao Xiang before. This time from Liang met, the two were on the same page.
Dong Xiaowan
Mao Xiang later married Dong Xiaowan, and what is valuable is that Mao Xiang's mother and wife are very fond of Dong Xiaowan. Mao Xiang and Dong Xiaowan have been together for nine years, and on weekdays, the two people drink tea, compose poems, paint a picture, and drink some wine, which is simply the most perfect combination of talent and beauty.
Later, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the war-torn impostor family naturally fell, and Dong Xiaowan fled south with Mao Xiang, who almost died of illness in exile. Dong Xiaowan, because of taking care of her sick husband, but also because of the difficulty of life, her body gradually collapsed, and she died of illness at the age of twenty-eight.
Dong Xiaowan's story, her emotional story with Mao Xiang, and some of Dong Xiaowan's suspicious cases, will not be discussed here. They are confidants, the sum of talents and women, and a husband and wife who share hardships.
