Who are the eight beauties of Qinhuai in history?

At the end of Ming Dynasty and the beginning of Qing Dynasty, there were eight famous prostitutes in Nanqu on the Qinhuai River in Nanjing. They were called &”;Eight Beauties in Qinhuai&”;, also known as &”;Eight Musts in Jinling&”; because of their exquisite quyi, extensive knowledge and beautiful appearance. These eight beauties are: Liu Rushi, Dong Xiaowan, Li Xiangjun, Gu Hengbo, Bian Yujing, Ma Xianglan, Koubaimen and Chen Yuanyuan. The reason why the eight of them are jointly named together is that they have several things in common except glamorous: glamorous and sultry, and their reputation is far-reaching; Versatile, poetry and painting; Love is faithful and unyielding; Extraordinary integrity, no need for a man. With regard to their integrity, except Ma Xianglan, several other people have experienced wars in dynasties, but their integrity has made the seven-footed men in the world feel ashamed. Qinhuai Yanyan Liu Rushi Liu Rushi, whose real name is Yang Ai, is also call《贺新郎》: &”;I see how charming Qingshan is, and I expect Qingshan to see me as such.&”; After reading this poem, she called herself &”;so&”;, and everyone called her Liu Rushi. Liu Rushi, a geisha at the turn of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, was smart and studious since childhood. However, due to her poor family, she was sold to Wujiang as a maid at an early age. When she grew up, she became a brothel and changed her name to Liu Yin. From then on, she traveled between Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Jinling. When the Qing army entered Shanhaiguan, seeing that it was going to attack Nanjing, Liu Rushi advised Qian Qianyi to follow Qu Yuan&;s example and die by drowning. Qian Qianyi agreed, but it was late in the morning and then at sunset. Qian Qianyi touched the lake and said, &”;The water is too cold. What should I do?&”; Seeing this, Liu Rushi jumped into the lake without fear, and was later rescued. After Qian&;s death in 1664, the clansmen tried to seize his property. In order to protect Qian&;s property, Liu Rushi used to scare off the clansmen. Later, although the clansmen were scared away, a generation of talented women also ended their lives. Liu Rushi was buried in Fushui Mountain Villa in Yushan after his death. The world&;s evaluation of Liu Rushi: the skin is like a coagulated fat eyebrow like a willow, and poetry and calligraphy are crowned with ceremony and music. Once you have a lot of Qingxi Kui, you can stroll along the Qinhuai bank with a light posture.

Only Mingfu&;s Fourth Childe has been taking risks and secretly casting his heart. After many twists and turns, he finally married to take risks as his concubine. Maobao was famous at that time, because he was a well-read man, so the local authorities repeatedly urged him to be an official, but he refused to settle down and become an official. Later, because he wanted to avoid the Qing army, all his possessions were confiscated. In the case of poverty, Dong Xiaowan still clung to him and tried his best to make a living. Finally, he died because of overwork and lack of money for medical treatment. He was only 28 years old.

Although he has artistic processing in traditional Chinese opera, he is still realistic about Li Xiangjun&;s deeds. Li Xiangjun adored Hou Fangyu and liked his integrity. She supported Hou Fangyu to go to Shi Kefa to participate in the anti-Qing struggle. forShe exhausted all her savings and closed the door, waiting for Hou Fangyu to come back and marry her. Until later, in order to escape the Qing army, Li Xiangjun drifted from place to place all the way, and finally fell ill. On her deathbed, she struggled to get rid of Bian Yujing, cut off a wisp of her own hair, wrapped it in HongLing, and tied it to the peach blossom fan that regarded her as life, and asked Bian Yujing to give it to Hou Fangyu, leaving her last words: &”;Childe should keep a festival for Daming, and don&;t be an alien. I will remember the love of Childe in Jiuquan.&”; In Li Xiangjun, which attaches great importance to feelings and righteousness, someone wrote a poem: Jade skin, gold hair, red skirt, and blue hair fluttering to the waist. The flower fan gently shakes the fragrant wind, and it is suspected that the fairy is on earth. Gu Hengbo Gu Hengbo, the heart of chivalrous man, is familiar with literature and history, good at poetry, and has both talent and appearance, and is regarded as &”;the first in southern music&”;. 《板桥杂记》 of Qing Yuhuai recorded: &”;Gu Hengbo, Zhuang Yan is elegant and elegant, with outstanding manners, clouds of hair on his temples, peach blossoms all over his face, slender bow and light waist.&”; Gu Hengbo was married to Long Ding Nie, one of the &”;Three Masters of Jiangzuo&”;. Although the husband and wife were harmonious after marriage, they never forgot the sense of honor of the nation. Long Ding Nie wanted to be a martyr, and Gu Hengbo took a rope and prepared to hang himself with him. But I didn&;t expect Long Ding to die. Instead, he said to everyone, &”;I want to die, but I don&;t want a concubine.&”; Long Ding&;s cowardly and selfish Gu Hengbo was angry. Bian Yujing Bian Yujing, the embroidered Buddha of Changzhai, is also known as Saisai, and later came from &”;Road flyover Yujing&”;, known as Yujing.

She is clever and witty, good at poetry and painting, especially Lanzhu, which is known as &”;Xianglan&”;, and her appearance is the most common in &”;Eight Colourful Flowers in Qinhuai&”;. However, she said, &”;Her face is open and clean, and she is like a willow warbler in spring, and she is eager to express her words and serve others skillfully.&”; Born in Nanjing, Ma Xianglan, has been living in the dust since childhood, but she is open-minded and often helps teenagers.

On Wang Zhideng&;s seventieth birthday, Ma Xianglan spent a lot of money to buy a boat to collect dozens of singers and went to Suzhou to celebrate his birthday, but after returning, he could not afford to get sick. Finally, he forced himself to bathe and sat down as a Buddha, and died at the age of 57. The romantic woman Koubaimen Koubaimen, whose name is Mae, is called Baimen. This is a simple and loyal woman, and it is precisely because of her character that she is doomed to the tragedy of marriage and love. When Kou&;s family arrived in Jinling, she was called Nvxia: &”;Building a garden pavilion, making guests, returning to the literati and poets every day, drinking wine, singing or crying, and sighing that the beauty was late and the red beans were falling.&”; The origin comes from a filial piety in Yangzhou.

Peach blossoms in troubled times are doomed, and they are displaced from place to place.

Although their status was humble, they were not inferior to the contemporary scholars in the history of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the history of ancient and modern history, so that people who visited them were not only beautiful, but also because of their talents and skills. Everyone in the Eight Musts of Qinhuai has left a touching story in history, or it has been recorded in history, or it has been compiled into a drama and passed down to this day.
