Ancient poems describing beauties
1. Xi Shi Yong
Tang Dynasty: Wang Wei
since beauty is honoured all over the Empire, how could Xi Shi remain humbly at home?.
washing clothes at dawn by a southern lake, and that evening a great lady in a palace of the north:.
lowly one day, no different from the others, the next day exalted, everyone praising her..
no more would her own hands powder her face, or arrange on her shoulders a silken robe..
and the more the King loved her, the lovelier she looked, blinding him away from wisdom..
girls who had once washed silk beside her, were kept at a distance from her chariot..
and none of the girls in her neighbours' houses,by pursing their brows could copy her beauty.
The gorgeous beauty has always been valued by the world. How can the beautiful beauty of Xi Shi remain humble for a long time? Originally, she was a Huansha girl in Yuexi, but later she became a beloved princess in Wu Palace. Is there anything different when you are poor? It was only when she was rich that she realized that her beauty was rare. How many ladies-in-waiting have put on fat and powder for her, and she never has to wear Luo clothes herself.
The king loves her posture more charming, and the king loves her and never cares about her right and wrong. The female companion who used to be in Yuexi Huansha together can no longer go back and forth with her in the same car. It is not easy to tell the blind neighbor Dong Shi that it is not easy to frown and try to please!

the river is full of water, and the northward flow is alive. When you do it, you will get rich. If you expose it, you will be guilty, and ordinary people will be guilty.

She is the daughter of Qi Hou, the bride of Wei Hou, the younger sister of the Prince, the younger sister of Xing Hou, and Tan Gong, her elder sister-in-law. The hands are so soft like spring, the skin is so white and moist as coagulate fat, the neck is so beautiful as salamander, and the teeth are the most neat.
the forehead is plump and the eyebrows are slender, and the smile is touching, and the eyes are touching. What a tall girl, the car stopped by the countryside farmland. Look how vigorous those four horses are. Red silk is tied on the horses' chews, and Hua Che Xu drives to the court. Your doctors leave the court early, so don't bother the king too much now.
the water of the yellow river is white, and it flows northward into the sea. The fishing nets in the water swish, the fish in the water brush, and the reeds on both sides are long and long. The dowry girl is tall and the attendant man is handsome!

4. Resentment
Tang Dynasty: Li Bai
how beautiful she looks, opening the pearly casement, sitting in a frown.
you may see the tears now, bright on her cheek, but not the man she so bitterly loves.
The beauty rolled up the bead curtain and waited, sitting and locking her eyebrows tightly. I only saw her cheeks wet with tears. I don't know if she hates others or herself.
