462 The legend of zhao jun

He had actually become Emperor Yuan of Han!

Xia Pingan looked at the portraits of the palace maids in various positions in the hall and immediately reacted.

In reality, the emperor’s departure from the fortress in history was not as unbearable as in the later literary works and legends. Many works said that the emperor’s departure from the fortress was a humiliating political marriage of the great Han Dynasty. This completely wiped out the achievements of countless famous generals and fierce warriors of the great Han Dynasty.

In actual history, the Darhan dynasty was at its peak when it reached the era of Emperor Han Yuan. At this time, the Xiongnu had been attacked by nearly ten emperors of the Darhan dynasty and was no longer able to hold on. As the river declined day by day, the Xiongnu of the South had already submitted to the Darhan dynasty.

In the first year of Jingning, the leader of the southern Xiongnu people, Hu hanxie, came to Chang ‘an obediently to seek an audience with the Han Yuan emperor. He did his best to show the courtesy of a vassal and asked to be his son-in-law.

Seeing that the leader of the southern Xiongnu, Hu hanxie, was sensible and well-behaved, the Emperor agreed to his request. Of course, in the face of a barbarian race like the Xiongnu, the Emperor was reluctant to let the Liu family’s bloodline and the royal family’s princesses and princesses marry the Xiongnu people. However, at this time, he had to give face to the southern Xiongnu. Appropriate comfort was also necessary, and he could not slap their face.

It was just a woman. He could simply find a child from an ordinary han family and give her to huhanxie. Then, he could marry into the southern Xiongnu tribe and become the Queen. He would be able to live a life of luxury.

This was what Emperor Han Yuan thought.

Emperor Han Yuan was naturally reluctant to part with a beautiful woman, so he simply wanted to choose an ugly woman from the palace to marry Hu hanxie. But he didn’t expect that Wang Zhaojun would be married off by accident.

Of course, Wang Zhaojun was not ugly, but a peerless beauty. She was the head of the beauties of the great Han’s South County.

The Han Yuan emperor usually chose too many women and elegant women, so he was probably a bit numb to them. In order to save time, he asked the court painters to draw a portrait of each of the elegant women who entered the palace. When he wanted to choose a beautiful woman, he asked a group of eunuchs and maids to take out the portraits and spread them in front of him. At a glance, he could easily see who was beautiful and ugly, and who suited his taste the most. Moreover, this choice was more in line with the emperor’s status.

“Your Majesty, the portraits of all the palace maids are here. I wonder who Your Majesty would like to give to Hu hanxie?” An old eunuch beside him saw that Xia ping ‘an did not speak and was still looking at the portraits in a daze. He could not help but remind her in a low voice.

The palace maids in the courtyard had never been favored by the Han Yuan emperor, and they had never even seen his face before.

Xia Pingan walked down from the throne and slowly walked in front of the portraits of the palace maids. As he walked, Xia Pingan stopped in front of a portrait. In the portrait, there was a beautiful palace maid holding a banana fan. She was standing on her tiptoes and trying to catch butterflies among the flowers on the beach. The whole painting was very vivid. The palace maid’s figure and posture were beautiful.

The name of the palace maid was written on the portrait-Fu Yuan.

“Who drew this?” Xia Pingan said.

“Your Majesty, this painting was drawn by Mao Yanshou!” The old eunuch beside Xia ping ‘an said after taking a glance at the painting.

not bad, not bad. Not bad at all, Yingluo. Xia Pingan nodded.

“Mao Yanshou, hurry up and thank His Majesty for his kindness!” The old eunuch glanced to the side and said in a high-pitched voice. When one of the painters standing in the corner of the hall heard this, his face immediately lit up and he hurriedly took two steps forward to thank the Emperor.

This guy is Mao Yanshou, the one who framed little sister Zhaojun?

Xia ping ‘an glanced at Mao Yanshou, who looked to be in his fifties. He looked decent, gentle, and polite, just like the ” experts ” who specialized in scamming people who appeared on television marketing programs in the future. He had a good appearance.

I’ll deal with you later!

Xia Pingan said in his heart, give this Fu Yuan to huhanxie!

The old eunuch beside him was stunned when he heard Xia Pingan’s words. The Emperor had changed. Last night, the Emperor said that he could choose any ordinary-looking Palace maid as a gift for Huhan Xie. Why did he choose a beautiful one when he was choosing a painting today?

But the old eunuch didn’t dare to ask any more questions. He only had his men put away the painting and prepared to make the arrangements. Huhanxie had not arrived in Chang ‘an yet. Only the envoy from the southern Xiongnu was present. All these matters had to be settled before huhanxie arrived.

The reason why Xia ping ‘an had chosen this Palace maid with the surname Fu to give to Hu hanxie was that, in his memory, there were some unofficial records that Wang Zhaojun had offended a woman with the surname Fu in the palace. Later, after that woman was chosen by the Emperor of Han Yuan to be conferred the title of Zhaoyi, her status was suddenly much higher than Wang Zhaojun’s. She targeted Wang Zhaojun in every way possible and made Wang Zhaojun suffer.

Xia ping ‘an continued to pace around, his eyes sweeping over the portraits of the palace maids. Finally, in the last row of the portraits, Xia ping’ an saw a familiar name on one of the portraits-Wang Lian!

Wang Jie was Wang Zhaojun’s real name.

The Wang Zhaojun in the portrait was the ugliest of all the portraits. Wang Jie stood stiffly in front of a Pavilion window, holding a lute in his hand. His nostrils were slightly large, and there was a black mole under his eye that looked like a tear. His figure was not very beautiful, as it was covered by the lute.

It was this painting that had tricked Wang Zhaojun.

Xia ping ‘an sighed. After Wang Zhaojun, no beautiful woman in this world dared to offend the photographer.

“Who drew this?”

“Your Majesty, it was drawn by Mao Yanshou!” The old eunuch beside him said.

well, let’s leave the rest for now. This Wang Xi is interesting. I have never seen such a strange-looking Palace maid among the palace maids. It seems that she can play the PIPA. I just happened to want to listen to the PIPA today, so I summoned her to this Hall to play a song for me!

“Yes!”

As Xia Pingan spoke calmly, the face of Mao Yanshou, who had just been praised and was full of pride, instantly turned pale. His entire body trembled. In the end, he left the main hall with a few other painters in a daze. When they retreated to the entrance of the main hall, their legs turned soft and they even fell down. They were in an extremely sorry state.

Mao Yanshou would never have thought that Emperor Yuan of Han’s personality would change today, and he would specifically ask to see the ugly woman.

After a while, Wang Zhaojun, carrying a lute, entered the hall.

Even though Xia ping ‘an had seen too many beautiful women, at this moment, when he saw Wang Zhaojun, his eyes lit up. Wang Zhaojun gracefully entered the hall. As soon as she entered, the entire Hall was like a Pearl rolling in, and the entire Hall was lit up.

Wang Zhaojun, who had entered the hall, had dressed up carefully, making her look even more luxurious and beautiful.

Chinese people used the phrase ” sinking fish and falling goose ” to describe the beauty of a woman. The story of the falling goose originated from Wang Zhaojun. When the flying Wild goose saw Wang Zhaojun on the ground, it couldn’t help but land to take a closer look.

Her hands were soft, her skin was smooth, her collar was like a Pixiu, her teeth were like rhinoceros, her head was like a moth’s eyebrow, her smile was beautiful, and her eyes were full of hope. Even such a poem could not describe half of Wang Zhaojun’s beauty.

The moment he saw Wang Zhaojun, Xia ping ‘an finally understood why the Emperor of Han Yuan had killed Mao Yanshou and the other court painters in a fit of anger after seeing Wang Zhaojun in person. f * ck, such a once-in-a-thousand-years beauty was actually painted as an ugly woman by you guys. How dare you trick me? this is a crime of deceiving the Emperor. If I don’t kill you, who should I kill? ”

Wang Zhaojun looked at Xia Pingan’s burning gaze and felt a little embarrassed. Her ruddy face made her look even more beautiful than a flower, but Wang Zhaojun still graciously bowed to Xia Pingan.

South County’s Queen Xiu greets Your Majesty!

“You can play the lute?” Xia Pingan asked.

“I know a little!”

“Alright, you can play a song for this one here. This one wants to hear Zhenzhen.”

“What song would Your Majesty like to hear?”

“I’ll listen to whatever you play!” Xia Pingan smiled. someone, give me a chair!

A eunuch moved a stool over and let Wang Zhaojun sit in front of Xia ping ‘an. Wang Zhaojun’s face turned even redder.

For Xia ping ‘an, it was a rare experience to be able to listen to Wang Zhaojun play the PIPA with her own ears. Out of all the realm pearls that had been integrated, this one was the most pleasant.

Seeing the Emperor for the first time, Wang Zhaojun was a little nervous, but she quickly calmed down. Holding the lute, she put on her armor and moved her fingers. The entire Hall was like thousands of jade beads falling on a Jade plate. The beautiful sound of the lute flowed out from her green onion-like fingers, making the entire Hall quiet.

Wang Zhaojun was playing Li Yannian’s ” a Beauty’s song, ” which was a reserved song for Palace Music.

With the sound of the lute, Wang Zhaojun’s Jade teeth were slightly exposed. Her red lips slightly opened and she began to sing, ” in the North, there is a beautiful woman who is peerless and independent. Once she looks, she can topple a city. Once she looks again, she can topple a country. I would rather not know that it is difficult for a beautiful woman to win her heart again.

The Han Dynasty’s folk songs were all sung slowly, word by word. The sound was melodious, and there were many changes and musical techniques in the change of words and sentences. Sometimes a sentence would be sung many times, unlike the fast rhythm of the popular songs in the future.

She listened to Wang Zhaojun play and sing “a Beauty’s song” for a full five to six minutes.

Xia ping ‘an let out a long breath. Even if nothing fell from this realm Pearl in the end and it failed in the end, at this time, to be able to hear Wang Zhaojun play and sing a song, it would not be a waste of time.

After playing the Song, Xia Pingan was immersed in Wang Zhaojun’s superb skills. After Wang Zhaojun stopped for half a minute, Xia Pingan applauded alone and praised loudly, ” this song should only be heard in heaven. It’s rare to hear it in the human world.

“Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty!” Wang Zhaojun stared at the ground shyly.

Xia ping ‘an asked the eunuch beside him to take out the portrait that Mao Yanshou had drawn for Wang Zhaojun to have a look. It was probably the first time Wang Zhaojun had seen his own portrait like this, and his face was filled with shock.

“How did you offend that Mao Yanshou? he actually drew you like this?”

those painters even asked for bribes when they painted xiunius. I just didn’t want to bribe him. I didn’t want to be extorted by him. I didn’t expect him to be so cruel, ” Wang Zhaojun bit her lip and said.

My sister, you are so beautiful, but your temper is too stubborn. Do you think that the fight in the palace is as simple as you not giving Mao Yanshou money? those elegant women can bribe Mao Yanshou to make him draw himself better, so they can naturally give him money to make him draw you ugly.

Xia ping ‘an shook his head and his face turned cold,”bring Mao Yanshou to Xuanji.”

A few minutes later, Mao Yanshou was brought in again. When Mao Yanshou saw the portrait of Wang Zhaojun and him, and then looked at the cold-faced Xia Pingan, he was so scared that he peed his pants and cried bitterly. As soon as he entered the hall, he knelt on the ground and walked a few steps on his knees. He kowtowed to Xia Pingan and Wang Zhaojun so hard that his forehead was bleeding, dyeing the ground red. He also kept slapping himself in the face.

Mao Yanshou, how dare you lie to me? you failed to ask for a bribe, and you dared to use your brush to slander me? you should be executed for lying to the Emperor, ” Xia Pingan said coldly as he looked at Mao Yanshou.

“Spare me, Your Majesty! Spare me, Your Majesty!”

Xia ping ‘an looked at Wang Zhaojun and said, ” Wang Jie, this Mao Yanshou is extremely greedy and has committed the crime of deceiving the Emperor. He is the most despicable and almost ruined you. I am handing him over to you now. You can kill him and Ren Qing at your will. How do you want me to deal with him? ”

Wang Zhaojun looked at the court painter, who was kneeling and kowtowing with blood all over his face. There was a look of pity in his eyes. He turned his face and sighed. seeing that he has been painting for Your Majesty in the palace all these years, I hope that Your Majesty will spare his life. Don’t let his life be lost because of me. If you do, I really can’t feel at ease.

Xia Pingan looked at Mao Yanshou. other than the fact that Wang Hua didn’t bribe you and you vilified her, are there any other reasons? ”

it’s because Wang Hua is too delicate and beautiful. A few girls were afraid that Wang Hua would compete with them for her favor, so they gave me money and asked me to deliberately draw Wang Hua uglier, ” Mao Yanshou explained everything and said the names of several girls in one breath, including the girl with the surname Fu.

Wang Zhaojun’s face turned slightly pale as she heard this. She clenched her fists, as if she finally understood what was going on.
