The main reason why she became famous, even written into history books, was her affair with Wu Sangui. Wu Sangui was a man of the hour in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and the influence of their stories was rare in the whole history of China.
Her grave, many years ago, has always been a mystery. Some people say it is here, others say it is there. It was not until 20 10 that Chen Yuanyuan's cemetery was finally discovered. It was a good thing to find the cemetery. After all, I've been looking for it for years, but I haven't found it. But after Chen Yuanyuan's tomb was discovered, the archaeologists were silent. Why?
How beautiful are Chen Yuanyuan and Chen Yuanyuan? It was so beautiful that Wu Sangui was so fascinated by it that Liu Zongmin even took Wu Sangui for himself at the risk of forcing her to the Qing Dynasty.
Chen Yuanyuan, formerly known as Xing, was born in a vendor's home. Chen Yuanyuan was poor in his early years. Her mother died young and lived mainly in her uncle's house.
Chen Yuanyuan belongs to the kind of person who has been famous for a long time. She has been clever since she was a child, and her girlhood has always been beautiful. When people in the village saw her, they all praised Chen Yuanyuan as a beauty.
Besides, Chen Yuanyuan is not only good-looking, but also good in other aspects. He can understand poetry and sing well. It is absolutely no problem for such a beautiful woman to find a good family to marry when she grows up.
But she happens to have an uncle who values profit over righteousness. At that time, the Jiangnan area was in a famine period, with poor harvest and little money. Chen Yuanyuan's uncle thought about it and decided to sell Yuanyuan to Suzhou Liyuan.
Chen Yuanyuan, who just stepped onto the stage, showed great talent in performance. Her role as matchmaker fascinated many audiences. After the performance, she was thinking about Chen Yuanyuan's wonderful performance in detail.
The key to changing your life? Chen Yuanyuan was brought to Beijing by Tian Hong, the brother-in-law of Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian. Tian Hong's original idea was to dedicate Chen Yuanyuan to the emperor, because he thought that Chen Yuanyuan was unique and incomparable to ordinary beauties.
Give Chen Yuanyuan to the emperor, make him happy and get more support from him. But I didn't expect Chongzhen to have no idea about Chen Yuanyuan. Why? During the Chongzhen period, the Ming Dynasty was teetering in many contradictions and crises.
There is the continuous uprising of peasant rebels such as Li Zicheng, and the threat of Manchu Eight Banners such as Huang Taiji and Dourgen. Chongzhen struggled for these things, was as busy as a bee, and refused to compromise with Li Zicheng or Huang Taiji, insisting on dealing with these two threats at the same time.
Therefore, under great pressure, Chongzhen did not want to devote his limited energy to women, and finally let himself die because of women. The emperor didn't want it, and Tian Hong couldn't help it. In desperation, Tian Hong can only take Chen Yuanyuan home again.
At that time, in troubled times, Tian Hong hoped to have a strong backer. Tian Hong searched and searched, and found that Wu Sangui was a man who could be wooed.
Actually, it's true. Wu Sangui fell in love with Chen Yuanyuan at first sight and liked it very much. So, Tian Hong gave Chen Yuanyuan to Wu Sangui and got this heavily armed backer.
The Rise and Fall of Soochow After hearing the news that Chen Yuanyuan, his beloved concubine, had been occupied, Sangui flew into a rage. He opened Shanhaiguan, attacked and killed Li Zicheng with Manchu Eight Banners, and stayed? Rush to the crown, anger is a beauty? The legend.
After the Qing army entered the customs, he took the troops and made great contributions to the Qing army's western expedition. He was made King of the Day to defend Yunnan. Wu Sangui sealed the queen, and Chen Yuanyuan entered the Heavenly Palace and began to live a comfortable life.
But we know that in the twelfth year of Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi decided to withdraw from the vassal state, and Wu Sangui chose to rise up and fight. After several years of war, Wu Sangui died, the rebellion was finally suppressed, and Chen Yuanyuan disappeared.
The expert who found Chen Yuanyuan's tomb was silent. Where is Chen Yuanyuan's tomb? Experts had always said that it was in Kunming, because they thought that Wu Sangui was a vassal here before, and Chen Yuanyuan died in Kunming after Wu Sangui put down the rebellion.
But after many efforts and searching, I finally found Chen Yuanyuan's cemetery in Majia Village, Guizhou Province. The tombstone reads? So the tomb of Niejia in Wumen is a building? . At first, many people wondered who the owner of the tomb was. After careful investigation, it was finally confirmed to be Chen Yuanyuan's tomb.
At this point, the experts were silent. Why? Because this is a naked face! At first, many experts insisted that Chen Yuanyuan's tomb was in Kunming, but now it is in Majia Village, Guizhou, which has to be said that it takes two hands to make a sound.
However, there is no need for experts to be silent collectively, because the world is very big and it is normal for the truth to be different from what they think. Faced with this situation, it is better to admit the facts generously than to be silent.
