What's Li's background? What's the story of Hou Fangyu?

What's Li's background? What's the story between her and Hou Fangyu?

Li, one of the Eight Musts of Qinhuai, is a famous musician. ?

Li Sheng was born in the late Ming Dynasty. He was born in Nagato, Suzhou, and came from a military attache family. Because her father supported Lindong Party in North Korea, he was hurt by eunuchs such as Wei Zhongxian, and his family was also affected. In his early years, Li could only escape the disaster with his relatives.

When Li was 8 years old, Li, a famous prostitute in Qinhuai, saw that she was helpless and adopted her as her adopted daughter. Since then, Li changed his surname to "Li" and lived alone with Li.

Li is the first person in Meixianglou. She is generous and elegant, and all literati like to sing with her.

Seeing that Li Yingjun was clever, Li asked a famous teacher to teach her piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and also asked someone to teach her to sing Kunqu opera.

Under Li's training, Li can play pipa and pipa, and his melodic poems are very refined. She is petite and lovely, especially in Nanqu, so she soon became the object of love of romantic sons, and her reputation resounded around Qinhuai River.

1639, it's time for Li to comb her hair. The so-called "comb harassment" refers to the first time that prostitutes entertain guests, perhaps because of fate. Hou Fangyu, one of the "Four Childes" in the late Ming Dynasty, lived on the Qinhuai River. Hou Fangyu was born in an official family, and his father was Hou Yao, a senior minister of the Ministry of Housing. As he joined the Party, authoritarian politics ousted him, and the Hou Shi family also fell.

When he first came to Meixianglou, he was fascinated by Li's moving beauty and euphemistic voice. When we talk about the life experiences of both sides, we feel more that we are both unhappy-the feeling of being old forever.

Li, 16 years old, is also the seed of love. She likes Hou Fangyu very much because she is personable and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, she had to pay a large sum of money to the pimp for beauty treatment. Hou Fangyu is beautiful, but she has no money. So he can only sigh.

Just then, his good friend Yang Longyou donated money for him in time, and he finally became the first overnight guest received by Li. After a night of kindness, I gave Li a white silk-covered Gongshan as a token of my love. Li was also moved by his kindness and left him in the building.

Soon, Ruan Dacheng came to see you and asked Hou Fangyu to be his chief of staff. Ruan Dacheng was originally a member of Lindong Party, but later he saw that Wei Zhongxian came to power and became a pawn of Wei Zhongxian, so he was deeply despised by Lindong Party.

Ruan Dacheng admired Hou Fangyu's talent for a long time and wanted to win him over for his own use. Therefore, after Ruan Dacheng learned about Li, he invested in Yang Longyou to do good for him.

When Hou Fangyu learned the truth, he still hesitated. However, Li, who hated the Wei Party, directly scolded Ruan Dacheng and raised money to pawn jewelry, forcing Hou to return the money to Ruan Dacheng.

1644, Li Zicheng led Dashun Army into Beijing, and Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself in Jingshan Park, and the Ming Dynasty perished. In the same year, Zhu Yousong and Axe King proclaimed themselves emperors in Nanking, and Ma Shiying, the Emperor of Hong Guang, was attached to Ruan Dacheng, who was reused and was named the Minister of War.

With power, Ruan Dacheng immediately retaliated against the scholars who had always disliked him. Among them, Hou Fangyu, who humiliated him, hated him the most, so he framed him in many ways. In order to protect himself, Hou Fangzai had to leave Nanking to find Shi Kefa.

After leaving, Li washed away the lead and closed the door. Since then, he has been looking forward to seeing you again. But Ruan Dacheng was so bad that he encouraged Tian Yang, the right assistant minister, to force Li to be a concubine.

Li Ning refused to follow, and was about to pull her into the sedan chair. She had to bite her teeth and hit the doorpost. At that time, she was badly hit and dying. Tian Yang was afraid of death, so he took the people away.

Ruan Dacheng saw that one plan failed and gave birth to another. It was he who wrote lyrics for Zhu Yousong, and he took this opportunity to recommend Li to Zhu Yousong. Li had no choice but to serve the imperial edict and become a geisha.

As the Qing army went south, Nanjing soon fell, and Zhu Yousong also fell into the hands of the Qing army. Li escaped from the palace gate with several imperial secretaries. But at this time, Nanjing is in chaos, and Xiangmei Building, where she once lived, has already been reduced to ashes. In desperation, she had to flock to Suzhou with the refugees.

The following year, Li suffered a lot because he didn't know his whereabouts, so he had to become a nun. Fortunately, she never forgot her old feelings for Li. After some visits, I finally found her and took her back to her hometown in Henan as a concubine.

Li has never said a word about his identity. In Hou's family, he was not only filial to his in-laws, but also respected his original match, so he was recognized by Hou's family. Coupled with Hou Fangyu's deep affection for her, she lives a stable life here.

However, her identity was still known by Hou Fangyu's father. Although she was pregnant, Hou Fu kicked her out of the house. Later, under the persuasion of his family, Hou Fu took out a deserted garden in a remote place and let Li live. Dare not disobey my father, but occasionally visit Li in the deserted garden.

Because of discrimination and weak attitude, Li finally got depression and died of depression soon. However, what Li didn't expect was that after the Qing Dynasty seized power, the imperial examinations resumed. Hou Fangyu, whom she admired all her life, hurried to take the exam. However, he failed Sun Shan in this exam.

Although unpopular with the Qing court, Hou Fangyu helped the Qing army suppress the anti-Qing rebels. Under his planning, the Qing army dug up the Yellow River levee, and water flooded into the city at once, and the people and insurgents in the city also died in the flood.

After the Qing court lifted the threat of the biggest rebel, it should have rewarded Hou Fangyu well, but they thought Hou Fangyu's heart was too poisonous, so they didn't reward him. As a result, Hou Fangyu had no chance to be an official, and he was very depressed. He died of illness soon.
