Ancient poetry is really a good product of our 5,-year civilization, and many things can be described in simple language. Beautiful women and handsome men are not only loved by people nowadays, but also by the ancients. Beauty is mentioned in many poems.
In Song of Eternal Sorrow, a sentence is also remembered by most people, that is, "if she but turned her head and smiled, there were cast a hundred spells, and the powder and paint of the Six Palaces faded into nothing" is used to describe Yang Guifei. Yang Guifei, whose name is Yuhuan, is a favorite of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. She certainly looks like a great beauty, or she wouldn't have begged her son to come over after Emperor Xuanzong had just met her, regardless of ethics. The love between Yang Guifei and Tang Xuanzong is also remembered by many people.
Wang Zhaojun, in the Song Dynasty, Wang Anshi once wrote "Ming Fei Qu", in which Wang Zhaojun, one of the four beauties, was described. "When Princess Ming first came out of the Han Palace, her temples drooped in the spring breeze with tears, and her shadow was colorless when she was low, which made the king uncontrollable." I can get such an evaluation, and I think Princess Ming is also a beauty. It is said that when entering the palace at that time, everyone had to ask for a portrait, and the king did not see the person directly, but saw the portrait first. However, because Wang Zhaojun was honest and didn't bribe the painter who painted her privately, the painter painted her ugly, and the king didn't like it. Later, when she was about to leave the king, the king saw that she was a beauty and almost didn't let her go. After the minister's dissuasion, she was let go. Later, Emperor Hanyuan also disposed of the painter who had painted Wang Zhaojun.
"still hiding half her face from us behind her guitar" is the description of pipa girl in Bai Juyi's Pipa Trip. I think she is also a beauty, otherwise she will not be the number one in the brothel, and this woman's fate is also very miserable. When I was a child, I was bought a brothel because my family was poor, but I was abandoned by a brothel because of my old age and decline in color, and married a businessman with the lowest status at that time. But the interests of businessmen, so many times they are running business outside, only this woman is at home, and the woman feels bored and lonely, so she can only play the pipa to kill time.
