At the end of the Ming Dynasty, almost no one did not know about the eight beauties of Jinling who were famous for their beauty and brilliance. At that time, more than 1000 literati came here. The fate of many all-powerful historical figures is closely related to them. Beauty loves heroes, and prostitutes love talents. Their brilliance charmed not only ordinary people, but also many heroes and talents, and even changed history. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Qinhuai River was covered with goulan tiles, singing and dancing, and singing all night. Among them, there are many brothels, full of the world of prostitutes, which have become the most prosperous song and dance venues in the Ming Dynasty. Many brothels accept virgins whose parents are dead and helpless. They taught him piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry, singing and dancing. When I grow up, I will become a signboard in the brothel. The eight beauties of Jinling, Liu, Li, Bian Yujing, Zheng Tuoniang, Koubaimen, Chen Yuanyuan and Dong Xiaowan, are all "peerless beauties" of Qinhuai River trained by prostitutes. Bayan is not only first-class in appearance and figure, but also proficient in poetry and dance. What's more commendable is that they care about world affairs, keep close contact with the writers of Fu She after Lin Dong's party, point out the mountains and rivers, and get excited, thus truly fulfilling their mission. Among them, the affairs of Li, Bian Yujing and Dong Xiaowan with Sizi and Fang Yizhi in the late Ming Dynasty were described as beautiful talks by people at that time. Liu and Kou Baimen in the "Eight Masters" have all followed the famous historical officials in the late Ming Dynasty. After the demise of the Ming Dynasty, many people in Bayan were hunted down for political reasons. Chen Yuanyuan and Dong Xiaowan also appeared in the lives of all-powerful historical figures at that time.

Zhangtai Liu Yin

-Liu has a strong character.

Liu she

Liu was a famous geisha talented woman during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. She has a strong personality, integrity, intelligence and courage, and her reputation is no less than that of Li, Bian Yujing and others. Liu's name is hidden, the words are like this, and the small characters are embarrassing. His real name is Yang Ai. Because he read Xin Qiji's words: "I see how beautiful the green hills are, and I expect the green hills to see me like this", so he named himself like this; Later, it was also called "Hedong Jun" and "HongWu Jun". She is a native of Jiaxing, born in the forty-sixth year of Wanli of Ming Dynasty (16 18). She was intelligent and studious when she was young, but because of her poor family, she was kidnapped and sold to Wujiang as a maid at an early age. When she was young, she fell into Zhangtai and changed her name to Liu Yin. She shuttled between Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Jinling in troubled times. Because of her beauty and talent, she became a famous girl in Qinhuai. She left behind many anecdotes and literary poems worthy of praise, such as Grass in the Heart of the Lake, Wuyinzhuo and Letters from Home. Liu befriended Zhang Bin, the leader of the Southern Ming Dynasty, and was congenial to Chen Zhi-qu, but Chen was unfortunately defeated and died in the anti-Qing uprising. Liu Wen is very demanding about her husband's choice. Many celebrities failed to marry her, and some people just stayed in the friendship stage. Finally, in the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, when she was in her twenties, she married Qian, a famous bureaucratic leader who was over half a century old. After Qian married Liu, he built magnificent "Crimson Cloud Pavilion" and "Red Bean Pavilion" in Yushan. Liu had a daughter after his death. Some Dream of Red Mansions think that the crimson designed by Cao Xueqin comes from Liu's crimson cloud building. When Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself and the Qing army occupied Beijing, Nanjing built a small court in Hong Guang, which was called Nanming in history. Liu supports Qian as the history of rites in Nanming. Soon, when the Qing army went south to Enemy at the Gates, Liu suggested that money join his water to die. Money was speechless, so he finally went down to the pool to try the water and said, "It's too cold to go down." . Liu "tried his best to sink into the pool", but he gave money a hard hug. So money is ashamed to meet it. Qian Qianjiang went to Beijing, but Liu stayed in Nanjing. Qian became an assistant minister of rites and a bachelor of Hanlin in Qing Dynasty. Influenced by the Liu family, he resigned after half a year. Later, because of the case, I had two lawsuits. Liu bribed him to get out of prison when he was ill, and encouraged him to contact Qu Shizhen and others who were still resisting. Liu tried her best to support and comfort the Qing insurgents, which showed her strong patriotic national integrity. Qian's relegation should have been criticized by later generations, but Liu's righteous act diluted people's antipathy to him. Yu Dafu recorded Liu's poem "I smell the spring room" in "Entertainment and Babies". As far as literary talents are concerned, she is the first of the "Eight Colors of Qinhuai". After reading her poems, Chen Yinque, a famous scholar, felt "stunned" and praised Liu's "beautiful words and sentences". Qing people thought her letters were "more beautiful than the Six Dynasties, and she loved Ban Cai deeply". Liu is also proficient in melody, long-sleeved and good at dancing, and her paintings are also famous. Her paintings are skillful, simple and beautiful. Calligraphy has won the admiration of future generations, calling it "an iron fist with a silver hook, which once collected wonderful traces." After Qian died in 1664, villagers gathered to confiscate his real estate. In order to protect the property of money, Liu's family committed suicide with silk. Although the villains were scared away, a generation of talented women ended their lives like this. Liu was buried in Fushui Mountain Villa in Yushan after his death.

Beauty is all over the country.

-Chen Yuanyuan, a famous prostitute in Kunshan, once lived in Qinhuai. Because of her outstanding colors and art, she is associated with major historical events, so she is in Chen Yuanyuan.

People listed her as one of the "Eight Colours of Qinhuai". Chen Yuanyuan's original surname was Xing, Yuan, Yuan and Fang, and she was adopted by her adoptive mother Chen and changed her surname to Chen. She is Yan Ruyu, beautiful in appearance, good at singing and dancing, and excellent in color and art. In the last years of Chongzhen, the peasant rebels in Li Zicheng were a great threat to the court, and Emperor Chongzhen was restless day and night. Zhou Kui, Jiading Bo's consort, wanted to find a stunning beauty for the emperor to alleviate his anxiety, so he left Tian Fei's younger brother Tianwan to find a beautiful woman in Jiangnan. After Tian Wan found Chen Yuanyuan, he was fascinated by his beauty and took it for himself privately. Soon Li Zicheng's team approached the capital, and Emperor Chongzhen called Shanhaiguan in Wu Sangui Town. Tian Tian worried about peasant rebels all day, so he held a grand banquet for Wu Sangui's farewell party, and Yuan Yuan led the choir to perform in the hall. After seeing Yuanyuan, Wu Sangui was ecstatic and hugged Yuanyuan as the hostess. After drinking too much, three patrolmen reported that it was protruding. Walk up to Wu in fear and say, "What will happen if you come?" Wu Sangui said: "You can see the gift with a round face, and I will protect your family first." Before Tian Tian could answer, Wu Sangui accepted Yuan Yuan's farewell speech. Wu Sangui persuaded his father, who was in charge of the imperial camp, to leave Yuan Yuan in the capital to prevent his colleagues from causing trouble and let the emperor know. After Li Zicheng went to Beijing, Wu Sangui's father surrendered to the insurgents, and Chen Yuanyuan was captured by Li Zicheng's men. When Wu Sangui promised to surrender to Li Zicheng, Wen Yuanyuan was occupied by the Ministry of Li Zhi. He shouted angrily, "What can a gentleman do if he can't protect himself?" So he surrendered, and the Qing army went to war with the peasant army. This is what Wu Meicun said in Yuan Yuan Qu: "All six armies are sad and angry and become a beauty." After Li Zicheng's defeat, he killed Wu's father and 38 members of his family, and then left Beijing. Wu Sangui pursued the peasant army to Shanxi day and night to avenge the death of his father and wife. At this time, the Ministry of Wu will search for Chen Yuanyuan in the capital, fly and transmit it, and lead Wu Sangui and Chen Yuanyuan from Qin to Shu, and then monopolize Yunnan. Wu was promoted to queen of Yunnan and wanted to be a real princess. Yuan Yuan forgave her dismissal, but Wu Sangui didn't marry her. I didn't want to be jealous of the princess I married, so I framed and killed Wu Ai, and Yuan Yuan lived alone in another hospital. After falling out of favor, she gradually moved away from Wu. Wu had plotted to kill her. When Yuan Yuan learned of this, he requested to have a haircut and embroider Buddha at Guo Hua Temple in Wuhua Mountain. Later, Wu Sangui declared independence in Yunnan, and Emperor Kangxi sent troops to Yunnan. 168 1 in winter, Kunming city was broken. After Wu Sangui's death, Chen Yuanyuan also sank into the lotus pond outside the temple and was buried beside the pond after his death. Until the end of Qing Dynasty, there were still two frames of Chen Yuanyuan's small movies and Chi Pan's stone poems in the temple.

Ling Xiu Qing Lian

-Dong Xiaowan is one of the eight famous beauties in Qinhuai in the late Ming Dynasty. Dong Xiaowan, whose surname is Bai, is violet, alias violet female history, and her name is Dong Xiaowan.

Words are full of admiration for Li Bai. She is smart, witty, beautiful and elegant, and is a first-class woman in Qinhuai Old Home. Her beauty caused a group of famous public officials and businessmen to fight. But this dusty woman looks down on the powerful, juggling skillfully and fighting bravely. Dong Xiaowan, one of the four great talents in the late Ming Dynasty, fell in love with him at first sight, because he was brilliant and charming. Mao Biqiang is handsome and handsome. He is called "beautiful boy" and a talented person in society. After entering the gate of Shi Mao, Xiaowan and Mao got along well. Horse workers (the mother of the border shepherd) and Sue (the wife of the border shepherd) especially like the small bowl, and the small bowl is also very respectful and obedient, serving them more diligently than her maid. In his spare time, Xiaowan and Bijiang often sit in the study of the painting garden, splashing ink, enjoying flowers, tasting tea, evaluating landscapes and identifying epigraphy. When Xiaowangang entered this home, he imitated Zhong You's post and Cao E's inscription, and wrote thousands of words every day, with no typos or omissions. Xiaowan also wrote small letters to relatives and friends instead of Bi Jiang. Once upon a time in Suzhou, Xiaowan studied painting for a period of time. She can draw a small clump of cold trees, and her pen and ink are touching. The butterfly picture she drew at the age of 15 is now collected in Wuxi Museum, with Xiao Wan's inscription, two seals and a poem, which is highly praised by close people. Xiaowan's paintings are rarely handed down from generation to generation and are rare masterpieces. After arriving in Rugao, she maintained a special interest in painting and always exhibited new scrolls and scrolls or old collections at home. The most impressive thing about Xiaowan is that she leads a romantic and beautiful daily life. Xiaowan is indifferent by nature and doesn't like greasy food and sweets. Cooking with a small pot of tea, with one or two dishes of watercress and fragrant black beans, is her meal. Bijiang likes sweets, seafood and smoked food. Xiaowan knows the taste of Bijiang, and the food she cooks for Bijiang is fresh, clean and delicious, with various patterns. If the wine is made into dew, the white porcelain cup will be filled with dozens of kinds of flower dew after drinking, not to mention tasting it with your mouth. Five colors floating, strange fragrance overflowing, enough to quench thirst. Xiaowan and Bijiang have a common hobby in drinking tea. They are often one person and one pot, silently facing each other before and after the flowers, savoring the color, fragrance and temperament of tea. Xiaowan often studies recipes. When she sees a strange taste, she will ask how to make it and make it with her clever hands. The tiger skin meat that people often eat now is Dong Xiaowan's invention. Therefore, it also has a little-known name "Dong rou". Although this dish is a little abrupt and beautiful, it is in harmony with Dongpo meat. In addition, Xiaowan is also good at making candy. When she was in Qinhuai, she made crisp candy with sesame seeds, fried noodles, caramel, pine nuts, peach kernels and sesame oil as raw materials, and cut it into cubes with a length of five points, a width of three points and a thickness of one point. This crisp candy is yellow outside and crisp inside, sweet but not greasy. People call it "Dong Tang", and now Yangzhou is famous for its delicious Dong Tang (also called Inch Gold). It is no exaggeration that some people listed Dong Xiaowan, Yi Yin, Yi Ya, Taihe Palace, Shanzu, Zheng Fan, Liu Niangzi, Wu Ersao, Xiao He and Wang Xiaoyu as the top ten famous chefs in ancient China. Moonlight is like water, and the youngest falls in love with it. On a cool summer night, Xiaowan likes to recite poems about the moon, fireflies and bowls of rice in the Tang Dynasty. In order to appreciate the beauty of moonlight, she often moves several couches with the rise and fall of the moon. Back indoors in the middle of the night, she still pushed open the window and let the moonlight wander between the pillows. When the moon goes down in the west, she rolls up the curtains again, leans against the window and looks at it, reluctant to go, and often recites Li He's poem "The moon is lingering several times, and the waves are full of smoke and jade". "You and I both like to enjoy the bright moonlight all year round, and the Lu Xian Zen keeper opens in silence." In this way, Xiaowan appreciates the subtle and elegant cultural interest in his natural and plain daily life, and yearns for a detached and clear poetic life in his humble life. Bi Jiang said that during the nine years of living with Xiaowan, he enjoyed all the happiness in his life. This happiness also includes sitting in a fragrant pavilion and savoring the fragrance. Bijiang appreciates "horizontal sinking" most, which is an agarwood with solid endoplasm and horizontal texture. Xiaowan cherishes the "daughter fragrance" that Dongguan people regard as a masterpiece, and they also have a lot of "Penglai fragrance". Bijiang once found a kind of "raw yellow incense" that tasted like vanilla in Jiangnan. He gave one or two works to his friend Li Suiqiu in Guangdong, and Li Suiqiu was amazed. Xiaowan also made hundreds of kinds of fragrant pills with western fragrant prescriptions obtained from Neifu. They pay attention to their mood when tasting incense. On a cold night, in a small room, jade hangs down, two or three red candles are lit, agarwood burns in several Xuande furnaces, and the vision of the nose is quiet, as if you have entered the deep fragrance of Jolie.

Peach blossoms are gone

-chivalrous and courageous Li In the very decadent late Ming Dynasty, most court ministers were too numb to feel the situation they were facing. They were in Li Zhong.

It is increasingly becoming a domestic problem and a foreign invasion. On the Qinhuai River in Nanjing, there are a group of women in the world of mortals who are very worried about the future of the Ming Dynasty. Xiangmei Building, located in the middle of Chaoku Street, is one of these embroidered buildings. The shopkeeper Li is a well-known geisha. In fact, Li's fame at that time was not as good as that of Liu and Chen Yuanyuan in the Eight Wonders of Qinhuai. Now, walk along the old alley of Qinhuai, which is the only embroidered building you can find. This is a two-story embroidered building with narrow stairs, and the footsteps of walking are clearly uploaded through the floor. In the autumn of the twelfth year of Chongzhen, Hou Fangyu, who was only 265,438+0 years old, just arrived in Nanjing from Shangqiu, Henan Province, left the exam and went directly to the dark red stairs. That year, Li turned sixteen. "She is gentle and slender, only accompanying the banquet of the tortoise shell, but she is shy and shy." She sat in front of the embroidered window, overlooking the Qinhuai River, waiting for the love in her dream. When Hou Fangyu suddenly appeared in front of her, she must have felt that the marriage she was looking forward to had arrived. It was supposed to be a romantic love affair with a talented person and a beautiful woman, but it was a pity to choose the wrong background. With the entry of the Manchu iron hoof, the buildings in the Ming Dynasty collapsed rapidly. Prince Zhu hurried south, and in a smoky atmosphere, he hastily established the Nanming regime in Nanjing. Fu She's sworn enemy Ruan Dacheng seized this opportunity and walked out of Jinling Deep Lane. He took refuge in Ma Shiying, the courtier of Nanming, and appeared at the front desk of the political stage. Ruan Dacheng was originally a figure spurned by the clean stream, but he still wanted to change his face. Therefore, he tried to use money to buy Hou Fangyu to achieve his personal political goals. This trick was quickly seen through by the talented Li. She resolutely rejected Ruan Dacheng's money temptation, and demanded that Hou Fangyu immediately sever ties with him and draw a line. Ruan Dacheng, who became angry from embarrassment, retaliated by despicable means. Hou Fangyu was helpless and left Nanjing with tears in her eyes, and this short-lived love ended hastily. No matter how he performed later, it should be said that Li's love life is beyond reproach. Afterwards, she was still in this embroidered building and sighed deeply to her friends: "Is Tian Gong different from Ruan Gong? What do I say to those who praise Hou Gongzi? I went there for my money and I want to sell my son! " The pursuit of love is so unswerving, and it happened to a Qinhuai geisha, which is really rare. In the third year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (AD 1646), Nanjing fell and Nanming became a historical bubble. Said to Li Lai, the external environment of her life has undergone tremendous changes, and the love she pursued was finally shattered by her return to the north. Hou Fangyu is a famous person. He is advertised as having the ambition to serve the country in his book, but he didn't stick to his political integrity for a long time. In the eighth year of Shunzhi, he was forced to take the imperial examination organized by the Qing Dynasty, and the result ended in failure again. In his love life, he didn't meet Li in Qixia Mountain as written in Peach Blossom Fan. Looking back on Hou Fangyu's life, he should be a tragic figure. In the twelfth year of Shunzhi (1655), in the late spring, the peach blossoms full of trees have withered and fallen red everywhere. Li quietly closed the fan engraved with poems, packed his bags sadly and bid farewell to the past. She came to Qixia Mountain alone and became a monk in a silent Taoist temple. According to historical records, Li had nowhere to go after his death.

Mrs. Hengbao

-"Chivalrous Man" Gu Meisheng In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Gu Hengbo was the most prominent one in the famous "Eight Wonders of Qinhuai". She was grandly named Gu Hengbo.

In Mrs. Yipin, Liu and Chen Yuanyuan are equally inferior; At the same time, she is also one of the most controversial people-it is said that a talented person who was privately engaged to her for life died because of her double suicide. Later, her husband, Gong Dingzi, who was dying in the late Ming Dynasty, said, "I want to die, but my concubine won't do anything." She is like a femme fatale, either hurting people's lives or destroying people's honor, and she is as soft-hearted as the "beauty of Qinhuai" in most people's impressions. Meng Sen, a famous historian, tasted the article "Examination of Mrs Yoko", but she greatly disapproved of Gong Jiazhi's character. He thinks that both husband and wife are snobs and shameless people who are greedy for money. Is Mrs. Hengbao, once known as "a virtuous and chivalrous person", really so miserable? Gu Hengbo, born in 16 19, whose real name is Mei Ku, whose real name is Mei Sheng, also known as Gu Mei, whose real name is Transverse Wave, whose real name is Heshan, also known as Mei Sheng, is called "Mrs Transverse Wave". After marriage, she changed her name to Xu Shanzhi, a native of Shangyuan (now Nanjing). According to Zheng Banqiao's Miscellaneous Notes, Gu Hengbo was "magnificent and beautiful, with elegant manners. Hair like a cloud, peach blossom face; The bow is thin and light. " She is familiar with literature and history and is good at poetry and painting. Her paintings are natural and beautiful, especially good at drawing orchids. /kloc-Fan Lan Tu at the age of 0/7 is now in the Palace Museum. /kloc-When she was 0/8 years old, she joined Li and others in the Orchid Club organized by Yangzhou celebrity Zheng Yuanxun in Nanjing. At that time, people followed Ma Shouzhen's painting style (that is, Ma Xianglan, who was born earlier, was also a beautiful girl in Qinhuai). He is also good at melody, and once tasted the cross-dressing of Xiao Sheng and Dong Xiaowan in The Dragon in the West Building. Living in Meilou, "embroidery on the window, jade axes with toothpicks, seven colorful cases piled up, lights decorated everywhere, cigarettes wrapped around, and the eaves tinkled", people dubbed it "the lost building" at that time-some people said that "the lost building" refers to the romantic charm of Gu Hengbo, and tourists were all fascinated by it. This is really an expected literature and significance. This "mysterious building" was originally built in another courtyard in Yangzhou during the reign of Yang Di. It was named "mysterious building" because it was "winding and deep, with scattered attics, hidden by porch curtains and connected with each other, just like a fairy trip". Huai Yu, the founder, is a scholar in the south of the Yangtze River, and is called "Mei Lou". At that time, he was infatuated with shear wave. What he said is a compliment, referring to the ingenious layout of the "Mei Lou" building and the imitation of fairyland. As soon as this reputation came out, it spread like wildfire and was widely used. Gu Hengbo's personality is bold and uninhibited, with masculinity. He is more like Liu in Eight Colors of Qinhuai. At that time, people called him "Brother Mei", which was quite similar to Liu Shiru calling himself "Brother". But compared with willow, it is more willful and jealous. According to legend, Huang Daozhou (who later fought against the Qing Dynasty and died in Jiangxi) once boasted that "he had prostitutes in his eyes, but no prostitutes in his heart". Lindong Zhu Sheng invited him to sleep with him when Heng Bo was drunk to see if he really had Liu Xiahui's skills. This rumor may not be true, but it reflects Gu Hengbo's style of disregarding secular morality. Her style of going her own way and not caring about the eyes of the world is probably an important reason why she can compete with Gong Dingzi, a talented person in Jiangzuo. However, her controversy is also the result of this personality to some extent. Gu Hengbo, known as the "Southern Music First", is naturally favored by romantic celebrities, so that the banquet is almost empty, and it is often called "the guest of the brow building" by the inviter of the brow building, which has become a symbol of elegance. Many cultural banquets south of the Yangtze River also regretted Gu Meisheng's absence.

Spiritual practice

-Bian Yujing Bian Yujing famous tournament, also known as Saisai, embroidered Buddha in Changzhai, and was later called Yujing because of its name "Taoist of Yujing". She was born in Bian Yujing, an official family in Qinhuai.

The two sisters became prostitutes because their father died young. Frontier poetry, piano, calligraphy and painting are omnipotent, especially in small letters, and they are also familiar with literature and history. She is skilled in painting and writes like a cloud. "She writes more than ten papers at a time." She likes to draw beautiful branches, especially orchids. /kloc-When she was 0/8 years old, she visited Wumen, lived in Huqiu and traveled between Qinhuai and Suzhou. She was a famous singer in Qinhuai in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. Bian Sai usually meets guests with low treatment, but when he meets beautiful friends, he talks like a cloud and is fascinating. Bian Sai had a marriage with Wu Meicun, a famous poet in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. In the spring of the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, Wu Meicun sent his brother Wu Zhiyan to the Shengchu Building outside Shuiximen in Nanjing as the magistrate. Here, he met frontier sisters who came to see Wu Zhiyan off. Seeing Bian Sai's noble and refined temperament, he couldn't help but think of two poems widely circulated in the south of the Yangtze River: "Looking for Bian Sai with wine, the bottom of the flower is Chen Yuan". During the dinner, Wu Han tested the literary talent of frontier fortress, which made Wu Han fall. After that, they contacted frequently and their feelings became deeper and deeper. Later, Wu received a letter from Bian Zhilin in Changganli apartment. When he knew that Bian Zhilin wanted to marry him, his heart was very contradictory. Tian Wan, the younger brother of Emperor Chongzhen's favorite concubine, recently came to Jinling to choose a concubine and took a fancy to Chen Yuanyuan and Bian Sai. Wu chickened out in front of the powerful prince's uncle, only played a few songs in Bian Sai's apartment and left sadly. Two years later, frontier fortress married a warlord. Because she was dissatisfied, she gave the maid a gentle gift and begged for it. She became a monk in Suzhou and attached herself to 70-year-old famous doctors Zheng Baoyu and Zheng Zhubie. Frontier fortress embroidered Buddha for a long time, and strictly observed the precepts in class. In order to repay Zheng's kindness, he spent three years tattooing Zheng. At this time, Wu Meicun became an official of the Qing Dynasty and felt depressed. One day in the seventh year of Shunzhi, Bian Sai saw Wu's four poems "The Old Friend of Qinhe River" in Qianjia, only then did he know that Wu missed her. A few months later, they finally met in Taicang. Bian Sai played the piano for Wu, and Wu was deeply moved. As a gift, he wrote "Listening to Bian Yujing, a female Taoist". The poem tells the scene of Bian's ten years, pointing out that when the Qing army arrived in Jiangnan and Yujing, it was "cold and silent" and desolate. Bian Sai later lived in seclusion in Huishan, Wuxi, and died more than ten years later. He was buried in the grove of Huishan Tuoan. Why is Wu Meicun so puzzled about amorous feelings? There have always been different opinions. Some people say that Tian went to Jiangnan to pick flowers in order to please Chongzhen ... Wu Meicun kept Bian Yujing waiting all his life without waiting for that promise. There must be disappointment, and it is not necessary to fall into the painful abyss of parting.

Red tears stained the clothes

-The romantic woman Koubaimen Koubaimen, whose real name is Mei E, was one of the eight beauties in Qinhuai in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. Banqiao Miscellanies says: Baimen Juanjuan is quiet and beautiful; Overlapping white door

The party is romantic, can tune, is good at drawing orchids, knows the sound and rhyme, can recite poems, but is easy to learn. It is the simplicity and tactlessness of White Door that determines her tragedy in marriage and love. In the late spring of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Zhu Guobi, a hero, came to Koujia in Chaoku Street under the protection of the officers. After several contacts, Bai Menying left a good impression on him. He was polite and gentle, so he agreed when Zhu proposed. It was an autumn night, and 17-year-old Kou Baimen boarded the sedan chair in heavy makeup. Musicians in Jinling in the Ming Dynasty had to hold a wedding in the evening, which was the custom at that time. In order to show dignity and grandeur, Zhu Guobi sent 5,000 soldiers with red lights from Wuding Bridge to Zhu Fu, the inner bridge, which was unprecedented and became the largest wedding scene in Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty. In fact, Zhu Guobi is a smooth and cunning bureaucrat. It was a temporary need for him to marry Koubaimen. After a few months, his meager feelings gradually exposed, so he left Kou's family aside and still walked between Zhangtai and Liuxiang. 1645, the Qing army went south. Zhu Guobi surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and soon entered the capital and was placed under house arrest by the Qing court. Zhu wants to sell her maids together, including Koubaimen. Baimen said to Zhu Jun, "If the income from selling concubines is only a few hundred yuan ... if I send my concubines back to the south, I will get 10 thousand dollars to report to the public in January." Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it and agreed. Koubaimen returned to Jinling with his maid Douer. With the help of sisters in the old courtyard, Kou raised 22,000 silver to redeem Zhu Guobi. At this time, Zhu wanted to reunite her dream, but she was rejected by Kou. She said, "You redeemed me with silver, and now I will redeem you with silver." When Kou returned to Jinling, she was called Nvxia. She "built a garden pavilion, made friends with guests, and returned with literati and poets every day." She was drunk, singing or crying, and she also lamented that the curtains and red beans of the beauty were late. " Later, he returned to Jinling from a filial son in Yangzhou, but he was not satisfied. Finally, he lived in a happy family and died of illness. At that time, Qian Ceng, a literary leader, wrote a poem "Koubaimen" in mourning, saying, "Kou's sisters have been lovers for eighteen years. Nowadays, Qinhuai is afraid of each other to prevent them from being contaminated by red tears. Xia, don't miss your favor. Who knows Columbine? The loess is immortal, and the fragrant pill is fragrant. "

Qingya Youlan

-Ma Xianglan Ma Xianglan (1548- 1604) was a talented poet and painter in the Ming dynasty. According to "Qin Huai Guang Ji", she Ma Xianglan

The name is real, the word is Lan Xiang, the fine print is Xuaner and the word is Moonracer. Because she ranks fourth in the family, she is called "Si Niang". She is witty, good at poetry and painting, especially at painting Zhu Lan, so she is called "Lan Xiang". Although her appearance is not outstanding, she "looks like an ordinary person", but she "looks open and clean. She is like a leaf warbler in spring. She is eager to express herself and serve people skillfully." Ma is highly accomplished in painting. At that time, Cao Yin, Cao Xueqin's grandfather, wrote three poems for Ma Xianglan Painting Orchids, a total of seven sentences, which were recorded by Cao Yin's Dongting. In the Historical Biography of Painting in Past Dynasties, her painting skills were evaluated as "green imitating purple gu, bamboo imitating Zhongji, all of which can attack its rhyme". Among the fine paintings and calligraphy in the Forbidden City in Beijing, there is Ma Shi's Zalan Book, which is unique. Her paintings have always been regarded as treasures abroad. Ma Shi is also very talented in literature. He has written two volumes of Lan Xiang's Poems and Sansheng Biography. Ma Shi is versatile, proficient in temperament, good at singing and dancing, and can also write, direct and perform. In the teaching workshop, the troupe she teaches can perform The Complete Works of The West Chamber, and those who learn skills with it can get a true biography. Ma Shi grew up in Nanjing, but unfortunately, he fell into the dust since he was a child. However, she is broad-minded, despises chivalry and often spends money to help teenagers. She lives in Qinhuai scenic spot, which attracts many tourists and has a close friendship with the gifted scholar king in the south of the Yangtze River. Her letter to Wang was included in Letters of Celebrities in Past Dynasties. On Wang's 70th birthday, Ma Yun raised money to buy a boat carrying dozens of geisha and went to Suzhou to buy wine for his birthday. He "ate and drank, sang and danced for months", but he couldn't afford to get sick when he came back. Finally, he died at the age of 57. I have devoted my whole life to Wang, but he is like an orchid, secretly crying and secretly spitting that Ma was buried in his mansion after his death, near Bifeng Temple in Bailuzhou Park today.
