Empress Zhao Feiyan Han Chengdi [1] (45 years ago-1 years ago) was formerly known as Yi Zhu, who was proficient in music, and was from Chang 'an Palace and Wuxian (now Suzhou, Jiangsu Province). Because its dance is as light as a swallow and phoenix dance, people call it "flying swallow". Zhao Feiyan was abandoned by her parents after she was born, and she was still alive three days later. Her parents also felt strange and began to feed her. When she was a little older, she was sent to Princess yang a with her sister and began to learn singing and dancing. She is extremely gifted, and she learns the piano very well, and her dancing is even more outstanding. Liu Ao, Emperor of the Han Dynasty, likes amusement and often goes out for pleasure with Hou Zhangfang of Fuping. After he saw Zhao Feiyan at Princess yang a's house, he was so happy that he called her into the palace and made her a Jieyu, which was very popular. Later, he abolished Queen Xu and made a swallow. Zhao Hede, the sister of Zhao Feiyan, was also made a Zhao Yi, and the two sisters were devoted to the harem, which was very prominent for a while. After the death of Emperor Han Cheng, Zhao Feiyan's sisters were childless, and Liu Xin, the king of Dingtao, ascended the throne, that is, Emperor Han Ai, Zhao Feiyan was honored as the queen mother, and Emperor Ai died a few years later, Emperor Han Ping Liu Yan acceded to the throne, and Zhao Feiyan was demoted to Shu Ren. At that time, there was a folk nursery rhyme: "Yan Yan's tail saliva, Zhang Gongzi, meet each other when." The wooden door warehouse is lang lang, swallow comes, pecks at the emperor's grandson, and the emperor's grandson dies, and swallows the arrow. " Said is Zhao Feiyan, YanYan tail saliva saliva said is the beauty of gusu Zhao Feiyan, MuJianCang lang lang said that she will be a queen. Jieyu is not the name of Ban, but the title of concubines in the Han Dynasty. Because Ban was enshrined in the palace, this title has been used by later generations, so that his real name cannot be tested. Later, he moved to the western suburbs of Yanling, Chang 'an (now Xi 'an, Shaanxi). Few talents learn, but good at poetry and fu. When he became an emperor, he entered the palace. At first, he was a little envoy, and soon he became a Jieyu. It is a descendant of Chu Lingyin Ziwen. The more my father rode a captain's class, the more he galloped on the battlefield in the later period of Emperor Wudi's attack on Xiongnu, and he made a lot of contributions. Ban Kuang gave birth to three men and one woman, and all four children had excellent performances: the eldest, Ban Bo, was a scholar who was proficient in Poems, Books and Analects of Confucius. He had hired several letters to make Xiongnu a great defender. He selected collectors and arrested thieves, and was called a god in the county; The second son, Ban Shi, was admired by the emperor for his erudition and talent. The third class is childish, and the party is straight and self-controlled, and the final official is Yanling Lang; His daughter is the famous talented woman Ban Jieyu. Ban Biao was born in the youngest class, and Ban Gu (Han Shu), Ban Chao and Ban Zhao were born in Ban Biao. Ban Jieyu was the empresses of Emperor Han Cheng, and before Zhao Feiyan entered the palace, Emperor Han Cheng was the most lucky to her. Ban Jieyu's virtue in the harem is well-known. At the beginning, Emperor Han Chengdi was attracted by her beauty and charm, and she was bored with her every day. Ban Jieyu's literary attainments were extremely high, especially familiar with historical events, and he often quoted classics to enlighten Emperor Han Chengdi's inner depression. Ban Jieyu is also good at temperament, which often makes Emperor Han into a state of ecstasy in the sound of silk and bamboo. For Emperor Han, Ban Jieyu is not only her concubine, but also her various talents, which makes Emperor Han put her in the position of being a friend. During the Han Dynasty, the emperor toured the palace, often riding in a luxurious car, with the silk as the curtain and the brocade mattress as the cushion, and two people dragging in front, which was called "chariot"; As for the car that the queen's concubines are riding, only one person is holding it. In order to be inseparable from Ban Jieyu at all times, Emperor Han Cheng specially ordered someone to make a larger chariot for traveling with him, but it was rejected by Ban Jieyu. She said, "Look at the pictures left by ancient times, the kings of sages are all surrounded by famous ministers. Xia Jie, Shang Zhou and Zhou Youwang, the last masters of the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, were lucky enough to have concubines sitting there, and finally they fell into a state of national ruin and ruin. If I go in and out with you, it will be very similar to them. Can it not be shocking? " (The original sentence is: the sage kings are all famous ministers, and at the end of the three generations, the Lord has a daughter. Emperor Han Chengdi thought her words made sense, so the idea of traveling with the chariot had to be given up for the time being. At that time, the Queen Mother heard that Ban Jieyu used reason to control her feelings and did not travel with the emperor. She appreciated it very much and said to people close to her left and right, "There was Fan Ji in ancient times, but now there is Ban Jieyu." Here, the Queen Mother compared Ban Jieyu with Fan Ji, the wife of Duke Zhuang of Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period, and gave her the greatest encouragement and encouragement. Chu Zhuangwang just acceded to the throne, like hunting, doing nothing, Fan Ji hard to persuade, but the effect is not big, so no longer eat the meat of animals, Chu Zhuangwang finally moved, turn over a new leaf, not much hunting, diligent in politics. Later, due to Fan Ji's recommendation, Sun Shuao, a sage, was re-used as Prime Minister of Lingyin, and he dominated the world for three years, becoming one of the "five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period". The Queen Mother compared Ban Jieyu to Fan Ji, which made Ban Jieyu's position more prominent in the harem. At that time, Ban Jieyu strengthened his cultivation in women's morality, women's capacity, women's talents, women's workers and other aspects, hoping to have a greater impact on Emperor Han Cheng and make him a wise monarch. It's a pity that Emperor Han Chengdi was not Chu Zhuangwang. Since Zhao Feiyan's sisters entered the palace, they have been all debauched and Ban Jieyu has been left out in the cold. After the Zhao sisters entered the palace, they were bossy, and Queen Xu hated it very much. In desperation, she came up with a bad idea, setting up an altar in the bedroom where the lamp was lonely and the food was cold, praying for the emperor to be blessed and live longer, and cursing the Zhao sisters for disaster. After the story was revealed, the Zhao sisters deliberately said that Queen Xu cursed not only herself, but also the emperor. In a rage, Emperor Hancheng abandoned Queen Xu in Zhaotai Palace. The Zhao sisters also want to take this opportunity to attack their main rival, Ban Jieyu. The confused Han Chengdi was so dizzy that he actually listened to rumors. However, Ban Jieyu was unhurriedly symmetrical: "I heard that life and death have a life, wealth is in the sky, and the correction has not yet been blessed. What is the hope for evil desires?" If ghosts and gods know, there is no reason to listen to the truth; If ghosts and gods are ignorant, what good is it to keep warm? I not only dare not do it, but also despise it. " I know that people's life span is predestined, and people's wealth is predestined, which is beyond human power. What hope is there for evil if the correction has not been blessed? If ghosts and gods know, will they listen to prayers without faith? What good is a curse if the gods are ignorant! I not only dare not do it, but also disdain to do it! " Emperor Han Chengdi felt that what she said was reasonable, and he remembered the love of not long ago. He especially pitied it, did not pursue it, and gave it a generous reward to make up for his guilt. Ban Jieyu is a knowledgeable and virtuous woman who can't stand mutual criticism, jealousy and exclusion. In order to avoid the right and wrong in the future, she felt that it was better to rush back and preserve our sanity, so she wrote a letter and invited herself to Changxin Palace to serve the Queen Mother. The clever Ban Jieyu put herself under the wings of the Queen Mother, and she was no longer afraid of being framed by Zhao Feiyan sisters. Emperor Han gave her permission. Since then, the palace has been silent and the years have been long. Ban Jieyu sympathized with the prosperity, and used the autumn fan to hurt himself, and wrote Poems of the Group Fan, also known as "A Song of Sorrow": a new crack of Qi Wan Su, bright as frost and snow. Cut into acacia fans, reunion is like the bright moon. In and out of your arms, shaking the breeze; I often fear that the autumn festival will come, and the cool will seize the heat; Abandon the donation of pods, and the kindness is absolutely unique. Ban Jieyu knew that he was like a fan in the autumn, and he would never get the light pity and honey love from Emperor Han. Soon, Zhao Feiyan was canonized as a queen, and Zhao Hede became a Zhao Yi. However, in Ban Jieyu's view, all this seems to have nothing to do with her. quiet inside, who is similar to herself, has left many poems for the literary world except accompanying the Queen Mother to burn incense and worship Buddha. Han Yu said such a passage in Liu Zihou's Epitaph; "However, after a long time, he was extremely poor. Although he was born out of people, his literary words could not be independent, so that he would undoubtedly spread to the future. Although the child is given what he wants, it will be the same for a while, and it will be easier for him. Who will gain or lose? There must be someone who can distinguish. " This is also suitable for Ban Jieyu. If Ban Jieyu has been favored by Emperor Han Chengdi, will she leave many beautiful poems for the literary world? Compared with the two, who gains and loses, who can tell clearly? Emperor Hancheng died in Weiyang Palace in March of the second year of Suihe. After the death of Emperor Han Cheng, the Queen Mother appointed Ban Jieyu as the guardian of the cemetery. From then on, Ban Jieyu spent her lonely old age with a stone man and a horse every day, listening to the breeze and watching the cigarettes on the table.
