It is said that after the affair between Yang Guifei and An Lushan was known by Tang Xuanzong, Tang Xuanzong did not have much reaction, but chose to forgive Yang Guifei and continue to favor Yang Guifei.
Unofficial history let today's people think impassability there are two things:
1. Why does Yang Guifei, as beautiful as flowers and pure as jade, look at An Lushan, who is ugly and fat?
Second, why did Xuanzong forgive Yang Guifei and An Lushan's ambiguity?
Yang Guifei's "washing three things" for An Lushan can be found in unofficial history's zaju, such as The Legacy of Kaiyuan Tianbao, The Biography of Yang Taizhen, The Story of Lushan Mountain, The Romance of Tang Shi and Wu Tongyu. , all have wonderful interpretations, full of humor, but not a hint of conspiracy.
In unofficial history, we can see the hype about "Yang", some of which are still vivid, which really makes it difficult to distinguish between true and false. There is an anecdote about "the imperial concubine washed Lu Er for three days", saying that Yang Yuhuan washed herself for his adopted son An Lushan for three days.
Washing three sons is an ancient custom. On the third day after the baby is born, a bathing ceremony is held to gather friends and relatives to wish the baby good luck, also known as "washing children in three dynasties", which means "washing dirt and taking refuge and praying for good luck". It is similar to the "baptism" of newborns in western Christianity.
Yang Yuhuan bathed An Lushan, a sophomore and a teenager, in the Forbidden City. It does sound ironic.
Think about it, the fragile Yang Guifei "washed three times" for her adopted son An Lushan, a dead fat man. They should be filled with joy when they sit and wash!
Wu Tongyu, a drama by Bai Pu in Yuan Dynasty, describes that An Lushan had the right to participate in politics in Beijing since he was appointed as our ambassador.
In the long run, he had an affair with Yang Guifei, and was caught by Yang, who explicitly expelled Tang Xuanzong and An Lushan from the palace and sealed Yuyang to guard the border.
After An Lushan left, Yang Guifei missed her day and night. It is also said in the play that the reason for An Lushan's rebellion is "grabbing the imperial concubine alone, not for the splendid scenery." This is similar to Wu Sangui.
The Romance of Tang Shi tells people another fact: women's underwear was made by Yang of the Tang Dynasty. "Lushan has been fooling around with the imperial concubine for many years and scratched her breasts. The imperial concubine was afraid that Xuanzong would see it broken, so she made a "terminalia" on her chest. Later, "terminalia chebula" became a popular strapless underwear for women in the Tang Dynasty.
Even Sima Guang, a great historian with a solemn face and realistic national history, came to join in the fun.
In "Zi Tongzhi Jian", he even recorded the story of "the imperial concubine washing dew", saying that Yang Yuhuan wrapped An Lushan in a splendid infant and let the ladies-in-waiting carry it in a colorful sedan chair. Tang Xuanzong also personally went to see Washing Children and rewarded them.
Sima Guang also said: "It is natural that Lushan Mountain can't help entering the palace, or eating with the imperial concubine, or staying out all night. There are quite ugly voices outside, and there is no doubt in the world. " Sima Guang seems inclined to believe that Yang Yuhuan and An Lushan did have an affair, but he also said that Xuanzong "didn't doubt it".
The description of "the imperial concubine washes her dew" in Zi Tong Zhi Jian is really speechless.
Palace affairs have never been avoided by official history and have nothing to do with history. Try not to write if you can't write. Sima, in fact, everyone is here to have fun. According to Sima Guang, Yang Yuhuan was "washed three times" for the Anshi Rebellion when he was young. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty went to watch it, but he gave a reward quite happily. This is the worst one hacked by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Zhao Zhao's As a Mirror was in a daze, and he wondered if it was caused by Sima Gong's drunken graffiti.
According to unofficial history legend, in order to please, An Lushan took the initiative to dance Hu for the imperial concubine to enjoy. This 350kg An Lushan is also very hard. History shows that An Lushan has to lift his shoulders before he can move. It takes three people to help him get dressed.
Such a fat man can cover the sky, and Yang Guifei should give up the emperor for peace. Is it because being fat attracts being fat that makes her lose her mind?
Despite all kinds of legends and scandals, it is recorded in serious history books:
An Shi Rebellion is our era of conference semifinals. In the Tang dynasty, Hu people were resettled in situ or in different places because of the policy of widowhood suppression. Naturally, the Hu people were appointed as our times to defend the frontier.
An Lushan was highly valued by Tang Xuanzong because he was good at wooing Tang Xuanzong and related dignitaries, and he was promoted to our three towns all the way. As the chief official of the important town, in order to please the emperor, he took the lady's route and please Yang Guifei, as well as some special products, jewelry and jade articles. But everything is for promotion and wealth.
As for Yang Yuhuan bathing An Lushan, judging from our common sense, the possibility is almost zero.
An Lushan rebelled, in the name of "Jun Qing side", named to get rid of Yang, and listed Yang Guifei's mistakes. How can he grasp beauty and country? I think too much about the Anshi rebellion.
