The most handsome emperor in history, let me take you to experience this extraordinary charm.
No. 1: Emperor Murong Chong of Xiyan
Reason for being the most handsome: He is in the 12th year of the Chong Dynasty, and he also has the appearance of Longyang, who is strong and lucky.
Murong Chong (359-386), nicknamed Fenghuang, was a native of Jicheng, Changli (now Yixian County, Liaoning), of the Xianbei ethnic group, the son of Murong Jun, the former Emperor Zhao of Yan Jingzhao, and Murong Wei, the former Emperor You of Yan. The younger brother of Emperor Liewen of the Western Yan Dynasty Murong Hong, his mother Queen Kezu Hun was the second emperor of the Western Yan Dynasty during the Sixteen Kingdoms period.
There are two things in this world that you cannot choose, one is your origin and the other is your appearance. Murong Chong had no choice. God gave him a noble birth and beautiful appearance. He was born a prince and was named King of Zhongshan and Da Sima at the age of twelve, which is equivalent to the current Minister of Defense. It is true that one person is inferior to ten thousand people. He has no shortage of power, money, and status. I think Murong Chong before the age of twelve should have been happy, joyful, and even a little arrogant and indifferent.
It’s a pity that happiness comes so easily, and it always makes people feel unreal. Everything ended when Murong Chong was twelve years old. In 370 AD, Fu Jian, the leader of the former Qin Dynasty in Guanzhong, invaded Qianyan in Guandong and captured You Emperor Murong Wei, his sister Princess Qinghe, and his brother Murong Chong. At that time, because of their outstanding appearance, the two siblings were favored by Fu Jian and accepted as bed curtains.
Second place Yang Guang, the founder of the Sui Dynasty
The reason why he is the most handsome: he is beautiful and handsome, but he is less intelligent.
Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty (569-April 11, 618), a native of Huayin, was born in Chang'an, the capital of the Sui Dynasty. He was the second emperor of the Sui Dynasty, the posthumous Emperor Yang of the Tang Dynasty, and the posthumous title of Xia Wang Dou Jiande. Emperor Min, his grandson Yang Tong was posthumously named Emperor Shizu Ming.
The "Book of Sui" written by Wei Zheng and others describes Emperor Yang like this: Emperor Yang was named Ying Guang, with a small name of A?, and he was also the second son of Emperor Gaozu. My mother called me Queen Dugu. The beauty is beautiful, but the person is smart and intelligent. Among all the disciples, he was particularly beloved by Emperor Gaozu and later. Eager to learn, good at writing, profound and serious, and optimistic about government and public affairs.
What does it mean? It means that Emperor Yang is handsome, intelligent, writes well, and has an excellent reputation in the court. However, after killing his father and ascending the throne, Emperor Yang made inappropriate mistakes in some major measures and lived a relatively luxurious life, which led to the rapid demise of the Sui Dynasty and his cousin Li Yuan took over the world. Under the influence of various factors, later generations' descriptions of this subjugated king were also quite unkind, and they all appeared in negative images, making people have a very bad impression of him.
Third place Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty
Reasons for the most handsome: beautiful eyebrows, long and accurate, and sun angle.
Liu Xiu, the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, was a famous statesman and military strategist in Chinese history. In the late years of Xinmang, the country fell apart and the world was in chaos. Liu Xiu, who was a commoner but had blood from the previous dynasty, took advantage of the situation in his hometown to raise troops. In 25 AD, Liu Xiu openly broke with the Gengshi regime and ascended the throne in Hebei and proclaimed himself emperor. In order to express the rejuvenation of the Liu family, he still used the name "Han" as his country, and it was called "Eastern Han" in history.
"Book of the Later Han Dynasty" records that Liu Xiu's appearance is: beautiful eyebrows, big mouth, accurate protrusion, horny eyebrows, high nose, big mouth, wide forehead. According to ancient male standards, He should be considered a handsome guy.
The fourth Emperor Guangxu of Qing Dezong
Emperor Guangxu was not tall. According to measurements in 1980, the length of the bones was 1.64 meters. It may have been about 1.67 or 1.68 meters during his lifetime. He was of average height at that time, and descriptions from many people who had seen him said that he was of average height. There is only one recognized photo of Guangxu, a half-length photo.
This photo was taken when Guangxu was in his twenties, the age when he fell in love with Concubine Zhen. In Concubine Zhen’s eyes, Emperor Guangxu was such a handsome young man with a face as beautiful as jade, and at the same time he had such nobility. The identity of Concubine Zhen is the prince charming in the silver dream of every little girl like Concubine Zhen, who is in junior high school. Therefore, it is not surprising that Concubine Zhen met Emperor Guangxu and fell in love with him at this age.
In appearance, he was smart and elegant, not more than five feet four inches tall. His head shape is very well developed and he looks very wise. He has a pair of big brown eyes under high eyebrows and lowered eyelids. He has no Han characteristics at all. Like most members of the royal family, his nose bridge is very high. This is a noble face called "Longzhun". He has a wide mouth and thin lips, with a short upper lip, which depicts an arrogant curve. His lower lip is slightly protruding and has clear lines. The chiseled cheeks and strong mandible project slightly forward, slightly higher than the forehead. His entire face was slender and thin, giving him the air of an ascetic ascetic. Although his body appears thin and fragile, it is clear that there is great power within it.
Fifth place: Emperor Chen Xu of the Chen Dynasty
Reason for being the most handsome: less tolerant and more wise. He is tall and beautiful, eight feet and three inches in length, with his hands hanging down above his knees. He is brave and good at riding and shooting.
Chen Xu (530-582), also known as Shaoshi, also known as Shili, was the fourth emperor of the Chen Dynasty during the Southern and Northern Dynasties (reigned from 569 to 582). He reigned for 14 years, and his reign title was Too built. He is the nephew of Emperor Chen Wu, Chen Baxian, and the younger brother of Emperor Chen Wen, Chen Qian. He was originally the assistant minister of Chen Bozong, the deposed emperor of Chen Dynasty, but later deposed Chen Bozong and established himself as emperor.

Sixth place: Tang Taizong Li Shimin
Reasons for the most handsome: 1. The appearance of dragon and phoenix, the appearance of the sun. 2. His cousin is Yang Guang
Tang Taizong Li Shimin (599-649), the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty, reigned for 23 years and was named Zhenguan. The name means "helping the world and bringing peace to the people". He was born in Chengji, Longxi. Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, was not only a famous politician and military strategist, but also a calligrapher and poet. Zhenguan Wenzhi has almost become synonymous with the ideal state in the practice of governing the country after the Tang and Song Dynasties. Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was imitated by later emperors and admired by the people for his great achievements in creating the prosperity of the early Tang Dynasty. He embodies the special heroic spirit endowed by the times, the historical wisdom that makes people feel something but is difficult to explain clearly, and the historical mysteries of winning the throne and ascending the throne, which have been divergent throughout the ages.
In the second volume of the New Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong, the Great Sage of Civil and Military Affairs, Da Guangxiao, was taboo to the people and was the second son of Emperor Gaozu. Her mother's name is Empress Taimu Dou. Live without being surprised. When he was four years old, a scholar came to pay homage to Emperor Gaozu and said: "You are a noble man, so you must have a noble son." When he met Taizong, he said: "With the appearance of dragon and phoenix, the appearance of the sky and the sun, and how many years he has, he will definitely be able to help the world and bring peace to the people." ?The scholar has resigned. Emperor Gaozu was afraid that his words would be leaked, so he had people hunt him down without knowing where he was going, because he thought he was a god. He adopted his words and called them Shimin. ?
"The Complete Record of Li Shimin's Private Life" Li Shimin had a clear appearance, elegant demeanor, outstanding literary and martial arts skills, and outstanding talents. He was the most admired role model for future emperors, and he was also a virtuous and wise king who was praised by future generations.
Seventh place: Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty
The reason why he is the most handsome: The king is handsome and has a beautiful mustache. He is wise, courageous and has a broad strategy, and can trust and appoint people.
Ming Chengzu Zhu Di (1360-1424), the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the fourth son of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang. Born in Yingtian, he conquered the current affairs and was named King of Yan. Later, he launched the Jingnan Campaign and raised troops to attack his nephew Emperor Jianwen. In 1402, he seized the throne and changed his name to Yongle. He personally conquered Mongolia five times, consolidated the northern border defense, and maintained the unity and integrity of China's territory. He sent Zheng He to the Western Ocean many times, which strengthened friendly exchanges between China and foreign countries. Compiled the "Yongle Dadian" and dredged the Grand Canal.
Moving the capital to Beijing in 1421 played a very positive role in strengthening the rule of the Ming Dynasty. During his reign, the economy was prosperous and the national power was strong. It was known as the "Yongle Prosperity" in history.

According to the classical aesthetics, he can also be regarded as a handsome boy in the army? A very masculine handsome boy. During the Battle of Jingnan, Zhu Di took away the throne from his nephew Zhu Yunwen and became emperor himself. His reign was as long as that of Li Shimin.
8th place: Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty
Reason for being the most handsome: versatile, knowledgeable about music, good at calligraphy, majestic and handsome in appearance!
Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, He was born in Luoyang, the sacred capital, in AD 685 and reigned from 712 to 756. The longest-reigning emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the third son of Tang Ruizong, and his mother Dou Defei. The temple name is "Xuanzong", and because his posthumous title is "Zhidao Great Sage, Mingxiao Emperor", he is also called Tang Minghuang. In the Qing Dynasty, in order to avoid the name "Xuan Ye" of Emperor Kangxi, he was often called Emperor Tang Ming, and he also had the title "Emperor Kaiyuan Shengwen Shenwu". Born in Luoyang, the capital of the gods, he is wise and decisive, versatile, knows music, is good at calligraphy, and has a majestic and handsome appearance!
Li Longji is seven feet and three inches tall, (Qin ruler 23CM, Han ruler 24CM slightly more. Three Kingdoms Zhuge Liang was eight feet tall at that time, which is 1.93 meters tall in today's terms). Converting this, Li Longji's height is at least 1.75 meters. Not to mention anything else, the emotional drama between Yang Guifei and Li Longji can make handsome boy Li Longji famous all over the world. The reason why the Tang Dynasty is so remembered is that handsome guy Li’s contribution cannot be forgotten.
Ninth place Gao Zhan, Emperor Wucheng of the Northern Qi Dynasty
Reason for being the most handsome: He has an outstanding appearance and is especially loved for his martial arts. The emperor was eight years old at the time. He was wearing a strict attire and attire, and his expression was leisurely and distant. Hua Rong was surprised.
Gao Zhan (537-568) was the ninth son of Gao Huan, a powerful official in the Eastern Wei Dynasty. He reigned for five years (561-565). Gao Huan was ugly, but he gave birth to a very good-looking son. According to historical records, Gao Zhan was particularly beloved for his appearance and martial arts. The emperor was eight years old at the time. He was wearing a strict attire and attire, and his expression was leisurely and distant. Hua Rong was surprised. ?Such compliments were rare to see during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, except for the handsome military man Dugu Xin.
It is a pity that although Gao Zhan has a good appearance, he is mediocre and incompetent. He is obsessed with beauty and does not think about national affairs. He once forced his sister-in-law to have an affair with him. During his reign, Northern Qi was in danger. In 565, he passed the throne to Prince Gaowei and appointed himself the Supreme Emperor. In the end, he died of excessive drinking and debauchery at the age of 32.
No. 10 Sun Quan, the Great Emperor of Soochow
The most handsome reason: having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou.
"Three Kingdoms" describes it like this: Sun Quan was born with a big mouth, blue eyes and purple beard. It is said that his eyes are green, and his hair and beard are purple. In fact, this is an exaggeration, mainly to show that he has the appearance of a dragon and is different from ordinary people!
Sun Quan is described in the novel like this, "Fang Yi has a big mouth, blue eyes and purple beard". The "smooth eyes" and "purple beard" are combined together, and they are said to be "blue eyes and purple beard". They look like a mixed-race child with Caucasian ancestry. In fact, this view is just an echo. As for "long up, short down", it means the body is long, that is, the upper body is long; the legs are short, that is, the lower body is short. Li Dongfang's explanation is: stand up and you will be short; sit down and you will be tall. This is true only for nobles who do not need to stand to serve others, but sit and be served by others. When Liu Bei went to Jingkou (today's Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province) to see Sun Quan and returned, he said to his left and right officials with lingering fear: "Sun Quan's chariot is long and short, and it is difficult for him to ride down. I cannot see him again." ?He returned in a hurry day and night. No wonder Liu Bei was so afraid when he saw Sun Quan. Heroes are jealous of others! This is a saying of Sun Quan, the noble prime minister.
