Chapter 57, the three sisters of the Xing family in history

In the early Ming Dynasty, there were three beauties surnamed Xing who had to say.

(1) Xing Yuanyuan, his father Xing San, is an honest farmer. Unfortunately, when Yuanyuan was very young, her mother died. The poor and hard-working Xing Laohan couldn't raise the young Yuanyuan, so he gave her to his aunt in Benniu Town, Changzhou, and Yuanyuan changed his surname to Chen and became the daughter of his uncle-in-law Chen Tairan.

Chen Yuanyuan's uncle-in-law and adoptive father, Chen Tairan, is a very popular man, because he is engaged in a special profession called "Shocking Boudoir". Every day, he goes out of the village and walks the streets to sell some women's products such as needles, threads, brains, fat powder jewelry, etc., and people call him Chen Lang. In order to alarm and attract those young ladies and young women in the boudoir to go shopping, Chen Xianglang often shook the tambourine and sang small songs in his mouth, enjoying himself, and even developed a hobby of liking music and singing Kunqu opera.

In such an environment, Chen Yuanyuan, who was born smart, mastered the essentials of Kunqu opera singing in a few years, and was proficient in playing the piano and dancing fans and skirts. Later, when Chen Xianglang died of poverty, the lonely aunt was unable to support Yuanyuan, so she sent Yuanyuan to the Suzhou Yufeng Opera Troupe. This year, Chen Yuanyuan was 18 years old, and he had already become a graceful and charming beauty.

(2) Xing Hongniang, also known as the Red Lady, a beautiful woman with strong martial arts, has heard the name of her son Li Yan for a long time, and envied Li Gongzi's handsome young man, and she is determined to marry him. Later, she discussed with her brothers and sisters who traveled the rivers and lakes together, led people to ambush Li Yan on the road he was passing by, kidnapped Li Yan, and couldn't help but say that she raped Li Yan after she returned.

Li Yan felt very humiliated, and took an opportunity to flee back to his hometown in Qixian County, Henan, but was framed and imprisoned by the local government as a "gangster". The amorous and righteous Red Lady led the men and horses to break through Qi County and rescue Li Gongzi from prison. The two had nowhere to go, so they defected to Li Zicheng, the king of the Chuang who was making a comeback.

(3) Xing Xiuniang, Xing Hongniang's sister, with gorgeous appearance and superb martial arts, Li Zicheng loves her skills and snatched it to be Mrs. Gao (side room, because Li Zicheng has a wife, Mrs. Gao). Like Song Jiang, Li Zi does not work women, and the relationship between husband and wife is not affectionate. Xing Xiuniang fell in love with Gao Jie, the general under Li Zicheng.

Gao Jie is nicknamed "the Harrier who turns the sky", with a dignified appearance, can speak well, is brave and good at fighting, and is most trusted by Li Zicheng, he also covets Xing Xiuniang for twelve points, and actually looked at a loophole, people don't know, ghosts don't know, with a large amount of gold and silver treasures, the two of them stayed and flew together, and surrendered to the official army.

Later, Gao Jie was named Xingping Bo by Hongguang Emperor Zhu Youxiang and became the most famous general of the Southern Ming Dynasty.
