With the end of this winter, the prosperity of Kaiyuan has officially ended. When spring comes, the era name is changed to "Tenpo".

Entering the Tianbao period, Yang Yuhuan soon stood out among the tens of thousands of beauties in Xuanzong's harem.

The Tang Dynasty harem owned by Xuanzong is really as beautiful as a cloud, and Concubine Wu Hui can become a leader among them, which is definitely not something that can be done just by looking at her skin. If you just talk about her faces, she can't compare to the little girls when she gave birth seven times and was forty years old when she died. She must have something else that is beyond the ordinary. It's just that it's hard to find any more records of this today.

But the reason why Yang Yuhuan stands out from the crowd is easy to find: she is not only beautiful, but also talented, singing and dancing, and astute.

When Yang Yuhuan entered the palace, there was also a young favorite concubine in Xuanzong's harem, named Jiang Caiping. It is said that she is a native of Putian, Fujian, born in a scholarly family, and her father is a doctor. She was introduced to the harem by Colliers. Jiang Caiping was born in the south, and did not see plum blossoms with her own eyes until she entered the palace, and immediately fell for them. Xuanzong therefore called her "Concubine Mei". Concubine Mei is a talented and beautiful woman, she once made "Xiao Lan", "Pear Garden", "Plum Blossom", "Phoenix Flute", "Glass", "Scissors", "Qi Window" and other eight fu; When dancing the Thrilling Dance, it can make the house shine even more. The proud Xuanzong boasted to his brothers that she was "Mei Jing".

However, the good times did not last long, Yang Yuhuan not only looked but also talented and stylish, far better than Jiang Caiping, and her appearance made Jiang Caiping's life take a sharp turn.

Whether it is a man or a woman, if there is only appearance, then no matter how beautiful it is, it will also make people aesthetically tired over time, and only ingenuity can make it have real charm.

Yang Yuhuan can write poetry and good writing, she once wrote "Liangzhou", reaching the sensational Cheng dù. It's a pity that, like most of Jiang Caiping's poems, "Liangzhou" has not been handed down, and only one poem about her and Concubine Jiang in "All Tang Poems" is included.

Yang Yuhuan's personality looks quite good, and there is no ordinary person's behavior of indulging in power and self-asserting identity. Because her poem was made for the palace maid Yunrong beside her: "Luo sleeves are fragrant, and red flowers are curling in the autumn smoke." The wind is shaking on the light cloud ridge, and the water is blowing at the edge of the tender willow pond. After the poem was completed, she also sang and danced for Yunrong with music scores.

Yang Yuhuan is good at singing and dancing. And she is willing to accept new things, and the "Hu Xuan" dance from the Western Regions is fascinating in the rotation of her body. But what really amazed Xuanzong about her dancing talent was the dance she choreographed with "The Song of Ni Clothes and Feathers". "The Song of the Neon Clothes and Feathers" is Xuanzong's proud masterpiece, with a huge lineup and many musicians, and the palace maids who only sing with the song need ten people at the same time, a total of 18 chapters, divided into three parts, each with six songs. It is called "Six Songs of Loose Prelude", "Six Songs of Middle Prelude", and "Six Songs of Final Prelude". "Neon Clothes and Feather Song" not only has a variety of instruments, but also the beat is scattered first and then slow and then fast, which has extremely high requirements for dancers. However, Yang Yuhuan can comprehend the artistic conception of the song as soon as he listens to it, and he can casually match the perfect dance for this magnificent song. This not only made her proud, but also made Xuanzong intoxicated, personally accompanied her, and introduced her as the first confidant in life.

In addition to singing and dancing, Yang Yuhuan is also proficient in music. She is a musical genius who can play several instruments with great skill.

"Tan Binlu" recorded that Yang Yuhuan was good at playing the pipa, and during the Kaiyuan period, Bai Xiuzhen, a female official in the palace, went to Shu and got a precious sandalwood pipa and dedicated it to her. This lucrative pipa is played under the fingers of Concubine Yang, and it is as moving as the sound of a fairy outside the sky. The kings, princesses, and the wives of the Lady of the Kingdom of Yu all vied to be Yang Yuhuan's disciple and learn to play the pipa with her.

"Kaiyuan Letters" records another musical instrument that Yang Yuhuan is good at: the chime. It is said that under her percussion, the chime sound is "Lingran" and "how new", even the professional chime artists in the Taichang pear orchard cannot compare to her skills.

Yang Yuhuan's lively and good at vocal poetry can be regarded as a very close relationship with Tang Xuanzong. Because this emperor himself is the "Patriarch of Liyuan", and he has outstanding achievements in this area, and his attainments are so high, even the famous musicians Kui and Shi Kuang in ancient times may not be able to compare with him. It's definitely not a fool's ass just because he's an emperor. Xuanzong's musical talent is not only talented, but also hard work. The famous musician Li Guinian is famous for playing the drums, and he himself is happy to say, "I have discounted 50 drum sticks for practice." Who knew that Xuanzong only smiled lightly when he heard this: "Where are you using kung fu?" My drum cane was discounted three times. ”

In short, Yang Yuhuan, with her talented character, not only has a common language with Xuanzong, but also makes Xuanzong fascinated, and soon reached the Cheng dù that makes "Liugong Fandai have no color". Xuanzong became more and more inseparable from her, and finally made up his mind to give her an official title despite Yiqiē.

Yang Yuhuan was twenty-two years old when he officially entered the palace, and Xuanzong was fifty-six years old. Time quickly passed in the music and dance, and four years passed.

On July 26, the fourth year of Tianbao (745 AD), Tang Xuanzong issued an edict to make Wei Zhaoxun's second daughter the princess of Shou.

Ten days later, on the sixth day of the eighth month, another edict was issued: Yang Yang, the concubine of Taizhen, was the noble concubine.

Since Empress Wang was deposed, Xuanzong has never been crowned a queen. And by this time, the "noble concubine" was already the highest position in the harem. Yang Yuhuan actually became the master of the harem of the Tang Dynasty.

Is there love between Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei? This is always a matter of speculation.

From the perspective of the Tang people, there should be love between this old husband and young wife, who have messed up ethics from the beginning.

There are many kinds of love in the world, not to mention the love that grows in power and wealth, even between you and me ordinary people, love as pure as water can only happen when the youth is ignorant. All the love after the end of the first love more or less happens after "comparison" and "choice".

The love between Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei is obviously the result of intensification after comparison and choice.

If you were a man, would you fall in love with Yang Guifei just from a man's point of view? The answer is obvious – unless you don't just accept skinny beauties at all.

If you are a woman, between Li Longji and Li Mao, who will you choose after the comparison? In most cases, of course, the answer is obvious.

The only problem is that Yang Yuhuan has been married, and he has married two fathers and sons. But this point, in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty people with an open and luxurious atmosphere, is really not a problem. The literati of that time wrote countless poems to sing, and the people of that time used countless legends to linger. They all envied this pair in their hearts.

When Yang Yuhuan met Li Longji, he was fifty-six years old and held the authority of the Tang Dynasty, the world's most powerful country. In addition to this dazzling aura, this man has many more advantages: decisive personality and versatile. Li Longji has had an "extraordinary appearance" of "grace and beauty" since he was young, and even if he is old, he should still be very impressive when properly maintained. He is indeed a romantic person, but both men and women have an advantage: they have a lot of experience, and they know the needs and hearts of the opposite sex well, so as long as he (she) is willing, he can make the other party like a spring breeze.

And Shouwang Li Mao, except for his youth, has almost nothing.

What's more: although the emperor is amorous, the young King Shou has never been devoted to his princess. Princess Shou still had to face many concubines competing with her for her husband, and when the emperor issued the order to take his wife, the young husband also tried to protect himself, and did not show any bloody nature worth mentioning, so he gave his wife away.

In that case, why should a woman who is not at fault bother herself?

Of course, this qiē can't hide from the eyes of others. And Shouwang Li Mao is even more self-aware. He doesn't necessarily have a deep affection for Yang Yuhuan, because he has many concubines like all princes, and during the five years he and Yang Yuhuan lived together, the concubines also gave birth to two sons. But no matter what, she is Princess Shou after all, and it is related to his face. Li Mao, the longevity king who lost his mother and the crown prince, has now lost his princess again, and he is suffering in the strange eyes of everyone.

Following Yang Yuhuan's entry into the palace at the beginning of the year, in the winter of the same year (the twenty-ninth year of Kaiyuan), the adoptive father of Shouwang Li Mao, the king of Great Berning, Li Xian, died.

Li Xian has a supreme position in the clan: it was he who took the initiative to give up the position of crown prince to his third brother Li Longji, making him Emperor Xuanzong. Li Mao was already extremely disappointed in his biological father, and only his adoptive father could give him some love and care, so the death of his adoptive father was a great blow to him, and he really felt the pain of losing his father. The resentment towards his biological father can be hidden, but the grief for the loss of his adoptive father cannot be concealed, and Li Mao simply asked Xuanzong to mourn for his adoptive father in order to repay his nurturing kindness. Xuanzong agreed without any objections.

With the end of this winter, the prosperity of Kaiyuan has officially ended. When spring comes, the era name is changed to "Tenpo".
