Chapter 455: When a Woman Has Power
However, relatively speaking, Liu Bang may think that he earned it himself.
After all, a man of more than 40 years has been in the willow alley of Huajie for many years, and he can still sleep with a beauty like Lu Hou.
Earned......
Also, are there still fewer women he seduces, and fewer women he has slept with?
It's a lot, and what about Queen Lu, she is only a lover.
Maybe the shrewd Liu Bang is secretly pouting - garbage, too weak.
Ye Chao read the 5,000-year history of China, and now he can't help but laugh when he recalls it.
He doesn't just read the canonical history.
The official history, generally speaking, was written only after victory, and the authenticity is okay, but many things are not recorded in the official history.
And the wild history has become a supplement to the official history.
There are true and false wild histories, but their interest and bold records are not possessed by the official history.
Relatively speaking, Ye Chao is more interested in wild history.
Because of the anecdotes and ugly things of some big people, the wild history has been recorded, and only then can it be recorded, and it is only then that it is willing to record.
The official history, either not remembered, or brushed aside, is very uninteresting.
For the Empress Dowager Cixi, it is estimated that few people like her.
Not because he controls the government, but because she has brought the country to decline, and she is suspected of misleading the country and the people.
However, it is said that the Empress Dowager Cixi is absurd but has a skill.
Empress Dowager Cixi is also known as "Empress Dowager of the West", "Empress Dowager Nala", Emperor Concubine Xianfeng, and the Yeh Nara clan of the Manqi Banner.
Empress Dowager Cixi is another "Wu Zetian" figure in Chinese history, although she did not claim the title of emperor, but she controlled the government for nearly 40 years and did many things that hurt heaven and reason.
In her private life, the Empress Dowager Cixi also followed Wu Zetian's example and did many undesirable things, and died of illness in 1903.
The Empress Dowager Cixi is actually a woman who likes to enjoy life, and as a woman who controls the fate of the country, Jewel Meiyu can no longer satisfy her.
However, she still cares a lot about her beauty and longs for eternal youth.
Many people don't know that in fact, the Empress Dowager Cixi still likes to drink human milk, and in the society at that time, human milk was difficult to obtain, from this point it can be seen that in fact, the Empress Dowager Cixi's life is very extravagant, and it is almost unreasonable.
The pursuit of beauty is eternal, not to mention in the harem, a place of decay and love.
The Empress Dowager Cixi's method of maintaining her health and rejuvenating her appearance was to eat human milk. In fact, among the nobility of the Qing Dynasty, the phenomenon of eating human milk was extremely common, but Cixi was the most famous.
It's simply ...... Corruption to the extreme......
Legend has it that the Empress Dowager Cixi never stopped drinking human milk from the time she entered the palace at the age of 26 to her death at the age of 75 for nearly half a century.
One of the seven things the Empress Dowager Cixi had to do when she got up was to drink tea. Cixi usually drank milk tea mixed with human milk and cow's milk. The Empress Dowager Cixi liked human milk so much that the harem became a trend. According to the regulations of the Qing Palace, 40 nurses are selected in the inner court every quarter, called "sitting on the show nipple", and 80 wet nurses are selected in the palace and called "Dianmao nipples" as alternates.
When there is an accident that the "sitting show nipple" cannot provide human milk, it will be supplemented by the "point nipple".
The Empress Dowager Cixi was also very strict with her nursing mothers. Nursing mothers are young women who have just given birth to their third child about 3 months old, in good health, and their age is controlled to be between 15 and 20 years old, and their children are still alive.
A group of newcomers is replaced every season to ensure the high quality of the milk source.
Moreover, the young woman must be good-looking, and Cixi thought that an ugly woman's milk would also cause her to become ugly. In order to ensure that the milk is sufficient, the diet of the nursing mother is specially designed by the court nutritionist and the imperial doctor, involving chicken, duck and fish, but with little salt and soy sauce.
When the Empress Dowager Cixi sucks human milk, the nursing mother should clean her body 3 days in advance, put on a special red shirt on the day of pumping, be full of energy, expose **, and kneel in front of Cixi's bed for Cixi to suck.
In addition to eating human milk, the Empress Dowager Cixi also took pearl powder to keep her skin smooth and youthful.
In addition to the pursuit of beauty, it is said that the most talked about by the Empress Dowager Cixi is her affair.
It is said that she has had many men, and this is really a woman who can enjoy it, and it is said that she has a wide range of tastes, even foreign men.
I really finished eating domestic products and went to eat foreign goods again.
After the age of fifty, she felt that the Qing Dynasty was hopeless, so she began to enjoy life.
Although he was fifty years old, there were many young people who liked him, one of them was called Boyan Narsu, who was twenty-two years old at the time, and he loved Cixi to death.
In the end, it was revealed that his father forced him to cut off his dealings with Cixi with poisoned wine, and he actually drank the poisoned wine.
Whenever he sees this little story, Ye Chao feels that this is really a poor child, who was played to death by an old woman in her fifties with superb bed kung fu, not to mention, and also committed suicide, which is really a waste.
But then again, Cixi, who is in her fifties, still has this kind of charm, which is really amazing.
Maybe she's really well-maintained, not much more than eighteen girls?
In addition, the bed's work is unusually good, and it can make young men want to stop.
It is said that even when the Eight-Nation Alliance attacked the city of Beijing, she had many lovers on the way to escape.
Surprisingly, there are still many foreign men, who are really women who have tried both long guns and short guns.
It is said that there was an Englishman who had a lover relationship with Cixi for many years, and later he mentioned in his autobiography that Cixi had as many as 1,000 lovers......
Thousands of people...... It can really be said that he is the queen mother with the most love history in history.
She is much more absurd than Wu Zetian, at least, Wu Zetian does not drink human milk, although she is strong, she does not have thousands of men...... So much......
Empress Lu, although she has a history of beauty, she is not as mad as her.
Therefore, once a woman has power and ability, she is not much worse than a man, and if she doesn't say anything else, she will say that she is hunting...... Cixi has probably played with more men than her husband has played with women.
Anyway, Emperor Xianfeng has never played with foreign women, but Cixi has many foreign lovers, and he has tasted long guns and short cannons.
The original Xiaolan'er is no longer pure.
It is said that the Empress Dowager Cixi was called "Lan Girl" before entering the palace, and there is an allusion to "Xiao Lan'er's song Qing Song Fan Xianfeng".
When she first entered the palace, she was not favored by Emperor Xianfeng, and she had never even seen the emperor's face. One day, Emperor Xianfeng saw a woman on the road to the court pinching the remnant chrysanthemum on the stone side of Taihu Lake, with exquisite jade wrists and slender willow waist, very beautiful.
Emperor Xianfeng did not take a closer look because of the urgency of time.
After retreating from the court, Emperor Xianfeng was wandering in the garden, and suddenly a song came from a distance, the voice was extremely sweet, like three spring young swallows, nine yellow warblers, Xianfeng couldn't help but stop, and asked the eunuch next to him who this person was. The little eunuch replied that it was a palace maid named Lan'er, and Xianfeng immediately summoned Lan'er.
The eunuch brought a woman in, and when Xianfeng saw it, it was indeed the woman he saw in the morning, and he was very happy.
Seeing her slender figure, light physique, apricot face with spring, willow eyebrows tightly locked, and a pair of sheared autumn waves, she was even more lively and energetic, Xianfeng couldn't help but feel relaxed.
