How did Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty take a fancy to Yang Yuhuan? Take the royal men and women to soak in hot springs.

Introduction: I think it is probably in the process of this collective hot spring bath that Tang Xuanzong suddenly took a fancy to Yang Yuhuan. With her if she but turned her head and smiled, there were cast a hundred spells, everyone else would be and the powder and paint of the Six Palaces faded into nothing.

Yang Yuhuan

The direct cause of this incident is Wu Huifei's death. Didn't we say in the first film that Wu Huifei did not hesitate to kill the former Prince Li Ying brothers in order to win the position of Prince Li Mao? After the death of Li Ying's brothers, Wu Huifei had a bad conscience, and he soon died of illness. Wu Huifei accompanied Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty for more than 2 years, and assisted Xuanzong in achieving the great cause of Kaiyuan prosperity, which has long been a part of Xuanzong's life. Her death was a great blow to Xuanzong. You know, at that time, it was already in the late Kaiyuan period, and Tang Xuanzong had been slack in politics. Without his career pursuit and his life partner, he would be particularly lonely. How to relieve loneliness? The first reaction must be to find a successor in the harem. After all, the emperor has there were other ladies in his court, three thousand of rare beauty, so it's not easy to choose one in a thousand. However, it's really not that easy to find out when I really want to choose. As the saying goes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If there is no fate, no matter how beautiful it is. Seeing so many beautiful women pass by, there is no one in Tang Xuanzong's heart. What should we do? Tang Xuanzong also thought of all kinds of absurd ways. For example, when the flowers are in full bloom, let all the concubines in the harem wear flowers, and Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty flies the butterfly himself, and whichever flower the butterfly stops on, he will be lucky for which concubine; Or, let the concubines gamble with each other, and whoever wins the bet will be lucky. It's just like what Wei Xiaobao did in Jin Yong's later works. This kind of life is quite lively, but these absurd methods can only have a temporary anesthetic effect and can't really fill the gap in feelings. On the contrary, the noisier the surface, the lonelier the heart is. However, in October of the 28th year of Kaiyuan, this depressed state of Tang Xuanzong finally ended. Because Yang Yuhuan finally appeared in front of his eyes. What happened?

according to the legend of everlasting regret, Yang Yuhuan was found by the great eunuch Gao Lishi Taobao. Isn't Gao Lishi distressed by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty? Seeing that Xuanzong was lonely around him, he began to find Taobao everywhere. Taotao came and went, and finally found it in Shouwangfu. At the sight of Yang Yuhuan, Gao Lishi's eyes lit up immediately and he recommended it to Tang Xuanzong when he went back. Is that right? This statement is widely circulated, but I think it was planted by Gao Lishi by later generations. Why? Three reasons. First of all, Gao Lishi is not that courageous. As a trusted eunuch, you can give the emperor a beauty pageant, but who dares to tell her father-in-law that I think your daughter-in-law is quite suitable for you without the emperor's suggestion? If somebody else is a gentleman, you want to die! Gao Lishi is a cautious man, and he would never take the initiative to take the risk. Second, Gao Lishi is not so bad. You know, Gao Lishi was once known in Wu Sansi, and he had a deep connection with the Wu family, and he had no special prejudice against Wu Huifei. Although on the issue of establishing a prince, he advised Tang Xuanzong to give up Li Mao, the longevity king, and establish an older loyal king, but that was mainly for the sake of maintaining political stability, not because of personal grievances with Wu Huifei's mother and son. In this matter, he has been sorry for Shouwang. How can he plan to take someone else's wife again, which will lead to the separation of his wife and the destruction of his family? Third, Yang Yuhuan is the daughter-in-law of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. They have already met in various court activities before, and Yang Yuhuan is very clear about what Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty looks like. There is no need for Gao Lishi to discover the new continent again. So, since Gao Lishi didn't find it, what happened?

I think, since historical records record that Yang Yuhuan was lucky in October of the 28th year of Kaiyuan, it must have something to do with Tang Xuanzong's visit to Lishan to soak in hot springs in October of the 28th year of Kaiyuan. Hot spring bathing is a favorite activity of the Tang emperor and a regular program of Xuanzong every winter. Moreover, every time I go, the emperor is not the only one who goes, but I take all the princes, grandchildren and domestic and foreign maids with me, which is considered as a royal collective vacation. The atmosphere of soaking in hot springs is naturally relaxed and pleasant, and it is not as particular about the order of seniority as usual; Moreover, soaking in hot springs is also a matter of relaxing muscles and promoting blood circulation. After washing hot springs, people must be ruddy and shiny, and they are more charming and moving. I think, I'm afraid it was in the process of this collective hot spring bath that Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty suddenly took a fancy to Yang Yuhuan. With her if she but turned her head and smiled, there were cast a hundred spells, everyone else would be and the powder and paint of the Six Palaces faded into nothing. Think this is the person you are looking for! Bai Juyi wrote in Song of Eternal Sorrow: it was early spring. They bathed her in the FlowerPure Pool, which warmed and smoothed the creamy-tinted crystal of her skin. And, because of her languor, a maid was lifting her, when first the Emperor noticed her and chose her for his bride. In order to highlight the aesthetic effect, Bai Xueshi changed the time of soaking in hot springs from winter to spring, and made a mistake in time. However, the general situation is quite vivid. In Lishan, Tang Xuanzong regained the feeling of heartbeat, which is of course a pleasure for him, but this happiness is also troublesome. After all, Yang Yuhuan's present status is Princess Shou, her daughter-in-law. It is a scandal that my father-in-law wants to marry his daughter-in-law. With the character of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, since the feelings have already happened, he will pursue them to the end. Scandal seems inevitable, so how can we cover it up?
