Wu was destroyed, Gou Jian took Xizi as a stunner for the country, and Fuxizi was in the river, so that Suiyi ended. Wu Zixu died and flourished with Yiyi, and his death was powerful, so Shen Xizi repaid (Wu) Zixu's loyalty.

"From ancient times to the present, those who die as women are guilty of women, except for Xizi, no one compares them to his sister Xi, Daji, and praise, is Xizi's luck, or the misfortune of the three daughters?

Xi Shi, surnamed Shi, was born in Lamanshan Village, Zhuji City, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province. Xi Shi is one of the four great beauties of ancient China, also known as Xizi. Born beautiful. At that time, the Yue Kingdom claimed to be subordinate to the Wu State, and the Yue King Gou practiced lying on his salary and tried to restore the country. At the time of the national disaster, Xi Shi endured humiliation, saved the country with his body, and was dedicated to Wu Wangfu by Goujian, the king of Yue, together with Zheng Dan, and became the most favored concubine of King Wu.

Xi Shi lives in the Yue country ramie. Zai Yao died in the state of Wu, and Xi Shi fell into notoriety. The spring water is urgent, and there seems to be a sound of injustice. Under the Lama Mountain, there is a Huansha stone in the river, and it is said that Xi Shi often makes Huansha here, and Xi Shi Tan is named after it. Xi Shi is born beautiful, endowed with excellent endowment, and according to legend, even the morbid state of frowning and caressing his chest is also imitated by his neighbors, so there is an allusion to "Dong Shi imitates Feng" [5] . In the third year of Goujian, the king of Yue (494 B.C.), Fucha defeated the Yue State in Fujiao (now southwest of Wu County, Jiangsu Province), and the Yue King Goujian retreated to Huiji Mountain (now Shaoxingnan, Zhejiang Province), besieged by the Wu army, and was forced to sue for peace with the Wu State, and Goujian entered Wu as a hostage. After his release, Gou Jian aimed at the weakness of King Wu's lewdness and lust, and the doctor offered Wu Qice, the most vicious of which was the beauty plan. [6]

He came to Ramie Village and met Zheng Dan and Xi Shi, a pair of sisters. He loves Zheng Dan and loves Xi Shi even more, and in a misunderstanding at a masquerade ball, he confessed his true feelings to Xi Shi, and Xi Shi also fell in love with this Fan Lang. However, the arrival of Wen Chong ended this fragrant and lingering love, and he brought Zheng Dan and Xi Shi back to Huiji, taught singing and dancing, and prepared to dedicate them to Wu Wangfucha. [6] The maid of the first palace, favored by King Yue, believed: "A true beauty must have three conditions, one is beauty, the second is good singing and dancing, and the third is posture." "Shih Tzu only has the first condition, and the other two conditions are lacking. So, King Yue spent three years teaching singing and dancing, walking, etiquette, etc.

Xi Shi practiced hard with anger, in the melodious music, dancing, graceful and charming, and then trained etiquette, from a raccoon yarn girl to a well-cultivated palace maid, gestures, all showed physical beauty, treated people and things, very decent.

Then, he made gorgeous and suitable palace clothes for her, and Fang Jin offered King Wu. Wu Wangfu is very happy, build the Spring Festival Palace in Gusu, build a big pool, set up a green dragon boat in the pool, the day and Xi Shi are water plays, and build a pavilion for Xi Shi to perform singing and dancing and feasts, the spirit hall, etc., Xi Shi is good at dancing "clog dance", the husband is specially built for her "clog corridor", with hundreds of large vats, laying wooden planks, Xi Shi wears clogs to dance, skirt tie small bells, place up, the ringing sound of the bell and the vat, "Zheng Zheng Da" is intertwined, so that the husband is as drunk as a fool, indulges in women, ignores the government and politics, and finally goes to the road of losing the country and losing his life.

finale

After the Wuyue controversy dissipated, the ending of the beautiful Xi Shi has various legends in later generations, which can be summarized into the following 6 types:

1. Guilt hangs himself

The plot deduced in some scripts and dramas is that after Xi Shi helped Yue Guo destroy Wu State, on the one hand, he felt relieved and completed his mission. On the other hand, I also felt guilty, I felt sorry for Wu Wangfucha, in an extremely contradictory psychology, I couldn't get rid of it, and finally hanged myself in the Guanwa Palace.

The law is more popular, and it is recorded in the classics. The "Book of Yue Jue" written by the Eastern Han Dynasty recorded: "Xi Shi, after the death of Wu, returned to Fan Li, and went to the five lakes with the pan. "Most literary and dramatic works depict it like this. said that on the day of the fall of the Wu Kingdom, Fan Li did two things, one was to persuade his good friends, Wen Chong, who shared the hardships together, to leave Goujian as soon as possible. Another thing is that in the depths of the flowers under the Gusu stage, he found the withered old lover Xi Shi, fled to Taihu Lake in a hurry, and both drove a flat boat and disappeared into the vastness of the smoke. Su Dongpo once wrote: "Wuhu asked, the boat returned, still carrying Xizi." "In Taoshan, Feicheng, Shandong, it is said that there are tombs of Fan Li and Xi Shi.

3, was said by Fan Li Shenhu

There is also a saying about the fate of Xi Shi after the destruction of Wu, saying that after the fall of Wu, King Yue wanted to keep her by his side because of Xi Shi's beauty, but Fan Li resolutely objected, he wanted King Yue to learn the lesson of King Wu and not be tempted by beauty. He set up a plan, sent someone to use King Yue's car to trick Xi Shi to Taihu Lake, and tricked her into the boat, when he arrived in the middle of the lake, he took advantage of Xi Shi's inattention, and ruthlessly pushed Xi Shi off the boat, and Xi Shi drowned in Taihu Lake.

4, was said by Wu Shen Jiang

There is a folk legend that after the fall of the Wu Kingdom, the Wu people vented all their anger on Xi Shi, wrapped her layer by layer with brocade, and sank in the heart of the Yangtze River. "Dongpo Foreign Matter Chronicle" contains: "There is a mermaid in the Yangtze River, also known as Shih Tzu fish, the number of days changes its color, the meat is fine and delicious, the woman eats it, it can increase the flattering state, according to the cloud system Xishi Shenjiang after the illusion. ”

Luo Yin in the Tang Dynasty wrote a poem: "The rise and fall of the family and the country comes from time to time, why should the Wu people complain about Xi Shi." If Xi Shi dissolves the Wu country, who will the Yue country die for? From this poem written by the Tang Dynasty, it can be seen that Xi Shi was "said by Wu people Shen Jiang" and has a certain market.

5, was hooked Shen Jiang said

Gou Jian, the king of Yue, once said: "The merit of Wu is also the work of Xi Shi." Legend has it that Gou Jian believed that the demise of the Wu State stemmed from the fact that the husband was obsessed with the beauty of Xi Shi, and in order to prevent the beauty of Xi Shi from harming the Yue Kingdom in turn, he took revenge and gave Xi Shi to sink into the river and die. This statement is the same as "said by Wu people Shenjiang" and "said by Fan Li Shenhu", and they all regard Xi Shi as "red face and troubled water".

6, was said by Echigo Shenjiang

Legend has it that after the Yue Kingdom destroyed Wu, Gou Jian wanted to take Xi Shi into the harem. Echigo thought that Xi Shi was the "daughter of the country", and was worried that Xi Shi would harm the country, so he ordered his subordinates to wrap her in a cowhide bag and sink to the bottom of the river.

This statement is more popular because it is more in line with the psychology of the king's lust and the queen's jealousy. This is the case in the "Chronicles of the Kingdoms of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty".
