Who were the four ugly women in ancient China?

First, Lei Zu

Leizu, also known as Lezu. Ancient figures in China. Yuan Fei, the daughter of Xiling and the Yellow Emperor of Xuanyuan. She invented sericulture and was called Leizu's first silkworm. Born in Xiling (Xiping County, Henan Province, Yanting County, Sichuan Province). Lei Zu gave birth to two sons, Xiao Xuan and Changyi. Gao E, son of Xiao Xuan, Di Ku, one of the five emperors; Changyi married the daughter of Shushan, gave birth to Levin, and inherited the world. This is the "Zhuan Xu Emperor", one of the five emperors.

Second, Lei Fang's family.

Women's Day is the second princess of Xuanyuan Huangdi, who comes from Lei Fang's family. Give birth to a green sun. Fang, the daughter of the Yellow Emperor, the eleventh grandson of Emperor Yan of Shennong, and the daughter of his eldest son Lei. Ray was defeated by the soldiers of Xuanyuan family, so he betrothed his daughter to Xuanyuan family. According to Hanshu, the concubine of the Yellow Emperor was born in Qingyang. Teacher Ji Lianhai, a celebrity of CCTV Lecture Room, told Cultural China that Fang was an extraordinary woman in the history of China. She invented the comb and made important contributions to our Chinese nation.

Third, Tong Yu's

Li Yu, also known as Tong Yu, was recorded as the concubine of the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, a Baishui man, who made the first suit in the world.

Lei Zu, the princess of the Yellow Emperor, became ill because humans had no warm clothes. The Yellow Emperor was determined to travel all over the world and visit a person who could decorate the beauty of the human body. He took several important officials, crossed the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, and traveled through countless mountains and rivers. Finally, at the foot of Yanmen Mountain in Baishui County, on the shore of Luoshui, he visited virtuous women and gave them a banquet. Later, she and Lei Zu went through hardships together, raising silkworms and spinning them into clothes. At the same time, it is said that she is also the originator of cooking.

At that time, many people often got sick because of eating raw meat. Qi Bo and Yu Fu, the famous doctors under the Yellow Emperor, tried many ways, but they were not cured. Huangdi often worried about this matter. This summer, members of the tribe followed Tong Yu's family to hunt in the mountains. In the forest fire caused by thunder and lightning, Guan Yu's family found that the roast wild mutton was particularly fragrant, so let everyone try it. From then on, she asked everyone to cook the prey before eating it. In order to barbecue prey, she led the harem to grind out large and small slates; In order to avoid burning her fingers, she made chopsticks with wooden sticks and bamboo poles, as well as cooking. Later generations revered her as the originator of the culinary world.

Fourth, Mo Mu.

Mo Mu, also known as ugly girl, is an ancient legend. Five thousand years ago, in order to stop the tribe's "wedding robbery" incident, the Yellow Emperor deliberately chose an ugly woman (named Mo Mu) who was virtuous, gentle and ugly as his fourth wife. The Yellow Emperor also said: "Those who value beauty over virtue are not true beauty, and those who value virtue over color are true saints." It is said that Mo Mu invented the mirror.

Although Mo Mu was ugly, the Yellow Emperor trusted her and put her in charge of the harem. When the Yellow Emperor traveled around the world, Lei Zu, the princess of the Yellow Emperor, died of illness. The Yellow Emperor ordered Mo Mu to direct the sacrifice and manage the coffin. Mo Mu not only has extraordinary organizational ability, but also the Yellow Emperor awarded her the position of "Fang Shixiang" and used her appearance to exorcise evil spirits.

Extended data

According to historical records, "Huangdi lived in the hill of Xuanyuan and married the daughter of Xiling as Leizu." Lei Zu is the princess of the Yellow Emperor, that is, Yuan Fei, that is, the first wife, similar to the queen of later generations. Leizu and Huangdi gave birth to two sons, one named Xuantao and the other named Changyi. After the death of the Yellow Emperor, Levin, his grandson and son of Changyi, took over the class of the leader, who was called Emperor Zhuan Xu in history. This is all the historian's records about the private life of Huangdi.

Huangfu Mi of the Jin Dynasty added many members of the Yellow Emperor's family to The Emperor's Century, saying that he had four concubines, besides Lei Zu, the Yuan princess, there were three concubines, one was (also called Fu Ri), the other was Tong Yu, and the other was Mo Mo (pronounced "Mo"), and specially indicated that she was in Class Three. Last, but not necessarily famous.

There are four ugly girls in the history of China, according to the date of birth. They are Mo Mu, the fourth wife of the Yellow Emperor. Zhong Lichun, also known as Zhong Wuyan, was said to be the queen of Qi Xuanwang during the Warring States Period. Meng Guang, the wife of a reclusive handsome man in the Eastern Han Dynasty, quoted the prototype of Qi Mei's story; Ruan Jia's daughter, the wife of Xu Yun, a celebrity and official in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, is a loyal defender of women's "four virtues" (female virtue, female speech, female appearance and female merit).

According to the description in Yu Ji Ugly Man in Tang Dynasty, Mo Mu's respect is "hammer forehead" (sound "promoting Russia") and his shape is black (sound "rough"); That is, the forehead is like a spindle, the nose is flat and tight, the body is fat as a box, and the appearance is black as paint. It is "the ugly woman of the Yellow Emperor." Mo Mu became the god of exorcism because of his ugly appearance. It is said that the mask worn by Shen Han, a witch doctor in later generations, when he banished the plague and jumped into the gods was the portrait of Mo Mu, which was extremely ugly.

According to Shan Hai Jing, Mo Mu and Lei Zu both lived in a river ditch on the south bank of Hanshui River. It may be that at that time, the Yellow Emperor wanted to take the men of his tribe out to fight everywhere, and all the women of the tribe stayed here as bases, so this place was called "Daughter Country" (Overseas Western Classics "Shan Hai Jing"). The managers of this Yellow Emperor tribal base may be Mo Mu and Leizu. They are even good enough to live in the same room. As the head of the "girl country" base, this is obviously not forced by conditions, but they are willing to be together.

Another book, Biography of Xuanyuan (written by Wang Kui in Tang Dynasty), which records ancient historical legends, also confirmed the good relationship between Mo Mu and Lei Zu. It is said that when the Yellow Emperor traveled around the world with his concubine Leizu, Leizu died unfortunately. The Yellow Emperor held a grand memorial ceremony for her, calling Lei Zu the "ancestor god" and appointing Mo Mu as the "guardian of pottery". This is actually guarding the tomb, which is very hard work. Every year, we should keep the burial place in Leizu and organize people to sacrifice on time.
