It is said that it spread as early as the Tang Xuanzong era. There are many romantic stories in Tang Xuanzong, but Yang Yuhuan is my favorite.
Legend has it that as soon as Yang Yuhuan entered the palace, he collected 3,000 prized items of Tang Xuanzong. There is a folk legend that "when the world of mortals rides a princess, no one knows it is litchi". Yang Guifei, whose real name is Yang Yuhuan (AD 7 19-756), was a court musician and dancer in the Tang Dynasty, whose musical talent was rarely seen by queens in previous dynasties. His ancestral home is Yongle, Zhou Pu (now Yongji, Shaanxi). On July 1 June 9, the seventh year of Kaiyuan,1was born in Shu County (now Chengdu, Sichuan). Yang Guifei's natural beauty and superior educational environment make her have a certain cultural accomplishment, graceful personality, proficient in temperament, good at singing and dancing, and good at playing the pipa. She is also known as the four beautiful women in ancient China with the stories of Shi, Wang Zhaojun and Di Xin.
It is said that Yuhuan grew up in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, and especially loved to eat local folk snacks in Sichuan since childhood, especially hot and sour powder-since ancient times, beautiful women have loved to eat hot and sour powder, and they have to eat hot and sour powder every time they go out. Yuhuan is as beautiful as a fairy since she was a child, and she can sing and dance well. Every time I go to the hot and sour powder shop, the owner, Ms. Chen, is very happy. After a long time, Ms. Chen from the hot and sour powder shop recognized Yuhuan as her adopted daughter. The Chen family has a son who is also a good-looking man. Yuhuan affectionately calls him little brother every time. The Chen family was also a big family in the local area at that time, and it was just right with the Yuhuan family. Mr. Chen, the owner of the hot and sour powder shop, wanted to wait until Yuhuan was older before proposing to Yang. The two adults were happy and the two children were innocent.
However, if something unexpected happens, people are doomed. Anything could happen. Yuhuan 10 years old, his father died suddenly. She had to follow her mother to her uncle Yang Xuan's house, who was an official in Luoyang. Later, due to the transfer of his uncle Hsuan Yang, he moved to Yongle to be an official (Yongji, Shanxi Province), never ate his favorite hot and sour powder again, and never met her little brother until he became a imperial concubine in the palace.
Until later, Yang Guifei didn't know what disease she had, and she couldn't afford it. The jade doctor in the palace is also very helpless. Everyone can't find the reason, and all the displays are normal, just like ordinary people, but she just doesn't think about tea and rice and can't eat anything. She was so anxious that Tang Xuanzong recruited world-famous doctors and experts on monkeys, but to no avail. Every day, Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was hot and cold in front of his bed. Even everyone knew that he was riding a red horse. No one knew it was litchi. She doesn't eat litchi. Gao Lishi, the eunuch, is trying to please Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty and Yang Guifei. He wanted to give Yang all the delicious food in the world-all the delicacies, but Yang Guifei didn't even look at it. Suddenly one day, he had a brainwave and thought that the imperial concubine grew up in Sichuan when she was a child. When she was a child, she wanted to eat snacks from her hometown. Of course, hot and sour powder was very famous in Sichuan at that time. Gao Lishi found the hot and sour powder without much effort, and sent someone to take the descendant of the hot and sour powder, Mr. Chen, to the palace, and brought all the ingredients and the unique Xiangyu cream in Sichuan. It is said that this cream has to go through 998 1 process and 8864 kinds of ingredients, which can only be extracted in 7749 days. It is difficult for ordinary people to make it, and it is prepared by Mr. Chen himself. When they came to the imperial concubine's bedroom with a bowl of authentic hot and sour powder, she suddenly sat up. When they saw the hot and sour powder in the hands of Teacher Chen and Teacher Chen, they couldn't help but burst into tears and drool, holding the hot and sour powder and eating it upside down at the bottom of the bowl. The change of Yang Guifei's body shocked everyone present. Tang Xuanzong said "this powder is the best in the world" without even thinking, and then officially gave the hot and sour powder the best in the world.
