037 Cold Beauty
The last beauty of the Three Kingdoms is the Wu family.
She was a little older when she married Liu Bei, and she was a widow, so she was ranked last.
The top ten beauties of the Three Kingdoms are not arranged during the Three Kingdoms period, but are sorted by boring today. Therefore, it is arranged according to the different identities of women - no one has ever seen a real person - then again, even if ten women are standing in front of them in a row, saying good and bad, it is not the same.
However, Wu is still quite beautiful.
Wu is Wu Yi's younger sister named Wu Amaranth.
Mrs. Gan is the "Empress Zhaolie" pursued by Liu Bei's own son after his death, and can be described as the first queen after Liu Bei's death. However, Empress Wu, who was posthumously named Empress Mu, was the first and only authentic queen set up by Liu Bei.
When Liu Bei was in Chengdu, Mrs. Sun was gone, and he, as the king of Shuzhong, could not live without the first lady.
The ministers persuaded Liu Bei to remarry.
At this time, Liu Bei was 55 years old, married to a famous lady, a fair lady, and it was difficult to have both motherhood and etiquette. So, Wu Laomei was mentioned.
At that time, Wu Laomei had been widowed for more than 20 years, and Fang Ling was also more than 40 years old, and she had not remarried.
Liu Bei began to hesitate. It didn't matter if you married a widow at that time, but it was extremely inappropriate to marry a widow of your own clan who was nominally a brother's daughter-in-law. He was a little embarrassed: he took away other people's territory, and he also took other people's widows' hot quilts, which is a bit unreasonable.
Who is this amaranth? How did she get involved with Liu Bei as the widow of her family?
When you mention Wu Amaranth all of a sudden, you will feel that you are blindfolded, and you may be no stranger to mentioning her brother.
Wu Yi, you know, right?
Wu Yi (?) - 237), a work of Wu Yi, the word is far away. A native of Chenliu County, Yanzhou (now Kaifeng City, Henan Province).
Wu Yichu followed Liu Yan into Shu, and Liu Zhang was the general of Zhonglang at that time. Liu Bei attacked Liu Zhang, Wu Yi surrendered to Liu Bei, and successively served as a rebellious general, a protector, and a governor of Guanzhong.
Later, he followed Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, to the north to attack Cao Wei, and with Wei Yan, he broke the Wei generals Guo Huai and Fei Yao (Yao Yao) in Yangxi, promoted to the general of Zuo, and entered the Gaoyang Township. After Zhuge Liang died, he served as the governor of Hanzhong, and was promoted to the general of the chariot cavalry, the history of the Yongzhou assassin, the fake festival, and then entered the Marquis of Jiyang. He died in the fifteenth year of Jianxing (237).
Wu Amaranth was originally a daughter-in-law to Liu Yan when her brother Wu Yi was doing Liu Yan.
Because Wu Amaran's family and Liu Yan's family were friends, Wu Amaranth married Liu Yan's son Liu Mao (碁mào) when he became an adult.
Wu Yuan lost her parents when she was a teenager, and her father had always had an old friendship with Liu Yan, a pastor in Yizhou, so the family followed Liu Yan into Shu.
Liu Yan originally wanted to accept her as a concubine, but in order to save face and make an attempt to be senior, he let his son Liu Mao (碁mào) marry her.
After about fourteen or five years together, Liu Mao (瑁mào) died.
After the death of Liu Mao (瑁mào), Wu Amaran has been widowed.
At the beginning, some people said that Wu Amaran was a prosperous husband, and Liu Yan and the two competed to marry him.
As it turns out, this is pure.
Why? Because Liu Mao (瑁mào) was a short-lived ghost, when he was alive, he failed to succeed in the competition for the throne of his father Liu Yan, and finally fell insane and died.
What's going on? Folklore has a lot of legends.
Liu Yan died in 194.
He had a total of four sons, but the first two died.
It stands to reason that the third Liu Mao (碁mào) should have taken over as the pastor of Yizhou, but the Yizhou clan headed by Zhao Wei felt that Liu Mao (碁mào) was too shrewd and difficult to control, so it was better to help Liu Zhang get on the horse, which would be beneficial to them, so they found an excuse and joined forces to put Liu Zhang in the position of Yizhou pastor.
Of course, Liu Mao (碁mào) was not convinced.
Because he has been working hard in Yizhou with his father Liu Yan since he was a child, there is no merit and hard work, and there is fatigue without hard work, but now there is only "complaining" left.
Since the death of his elder brother Liu Fan and Liu Dan, Liu Mao (碁mào) has always thought that he is the natural heir, and is ambitiously ready to make a career in Yizhou, even if he can't go out of Hanzhong to pacify the world like Emperor Gaozu, at least he can be a prince and king like Gongsun Shu, and continue his Han family bloodline.
He has been preparing for this goal for several years, cultivating himself and cultivating virtue, and is quite famous among the scholars in Yizhou, but he didn't expect Liu Yan to die, but those families who usually have excellent relationships have changed direction, and the incompetent Liu Zhang has come to power, and he has nothing to do with him.
This was a great blow to Liu Mao (瑁mào), he couldn't turn the corner, and he couldn't protest because of his illness, but this was in the arms of Liu Zhang and others, and he was served with good food and drink, so that he was leisurely for more than ten years.
In the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Liu Zhang asked the Zhang Su brothers to go to Jingzhou to meet Prime Minister Cao Cao, and Cao Cao undertook to make Liu Zhang the general of Zhenwei and Liu Mao (瑁mào) as the general of Pingkou.
Liu Mao (瑁mào) suddenly realized that it was useless for him to protest silently for more than ten years, so he sent someone to Jingzhou to meet Cao Cao and ask to take up a post in Xu County, so as to leave Yizhou.
But before Cao Cao could reply to the message, Liu Mao (瑁mào) fell ill and died!
Madness? How did you get madness?
Was it bitten by a dog? Rabies? Or was he driven crazy by Liu Zhang because of the struggle for power and profit?
I don't know, we can only guess, anyway, Liu Mao (瑁mào) is dead.
When Liu Bei hesitated, Fa Zheng, who was most trusted by Liu Bei and made great contributions, used the example of Duke Wen of the Spring and Autumn Jin Dynasty marrying his niece and daughter-in-law as a lesson to enlighten Liu Bei. Left and right, Liu Bei is interesting, Ming Media is marrying Wu Laomeier as the first lady.
In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219), Liu Bei was called the king of Hanzhong and made Wu Yuan the queen of Hanzhong.
In the summer and May of the first year of Zhangwu (221), Liu Bei was proclaimed emperor and Wu Yuan was appointed as the queen.
But this kind of thing is not good to say. This Liu Mao (碁mào) is Liu Zhang's brother, and in terms of name, he is the same clan as Liu Bei. In that era, marrying the widow of a person of the same clan was a serious violation of etiquette, and to put it bluntly, it was a ** behavior.
Isn't it a joke when this gets out? But Mrs. Wu is really beautiful, although she is a widow, but she has another charm.
At that time, Mrs. Wu was definitely a cold beauty.
Because of her husband's early death, she walked on the road not like a normal pedestrian, but more like a sleepwalker, a walking corpse with a lost soul.
However, the woman's downfall not only did not hinder her beauty, but made her dazzle.
For beautiful women, the downfall will give them an extra charm, and in addition to the beauty of the body, there is a kind of beauty that is breathing—the kind of heterogeneity that makes people feel heart-pounding and endearing.
As soon as Liu Bei saw Mrs. Wu's hands, his hands were cold, and his heart was also cold.
Mrs. Wu was cold, awe-inspiring, like a piece of ice.
However, do people have a prosperous husband? Who would have thought that she had only been the queen for two years, and Liu Bei would die.
Her "prosperity" is "death", right?
Wu Amaranth was beaten back to her original form - she became a widow again. But there is one more identity of the queen mother.
In the eighth year of Yanxi (245), he died of illness and was buried in Liu Bei's Huiling, nicknamed Empress Mu.
It is said that when she died, the cold was pressing, and the people who helped the spirit could not help but feel the cold hitting people.
Cold beauty.
