Introduction.
Xiao, Empress Yi De of Liao (916-1125 A.D.), was a brilliant young woman who could recite poetry and history. When she grew up, she had a beautiful face! She was regarded as the Goddess of Mercy by the world, hence her nickname ‘Guanyin’.
The reason why this section of ‘Ten Fragrant Words’ was written is not out of the moon murmuring and singing among the flowers! It originated from Liao, the Privy Councillor of the Southern Court, King of Zhao, Yelu Yixin, who was proud of his achievements in war and wanted to invite the queen to have a kiss. But Xiao queen to ritual self-possession, the slightest color!
Yelu Yixin could not get what he wanted, so he took advantage of the opportunity to organize. Knowing that Empress Xiao had always been good at music, poetry and writing, he ordered others to write the ‘Ten Fragrant Words’. So he ordered others to write the ‘Ten Fragrant Words’, which was written to falsely accuse Empress Xiao of adultery with the actress Zhao Weiyi.
Then sent the palace maids plan to lure the Queen Xiao handwritten book, the absolute dark embedded ‘Zhao’, ‘but’, ‘a’: the palace only counts the Zhao family makeup, the defeat of the rain and clouds to entertain the King of Han;
Only a piece of moon in the know, once spied the birds into the Zhaoyang.
There were even whispers of courtroom stories and pictures to prove it! Such as:…
But hearing the sound of laughter, Deng (palace maid single Deng) also heart.
Secret from outside the tent to listen to, after hearing said: “can be appointed useful Langjun.”
But a low voice said: “Although the slave tool is healthy, small snake ear. Since the Khan is no match for the real dragon!”
Afterward, he said, “A small snake, but the real lazy dragon!”
After that, one could only hear sympathy, as if a child were crying in its sleep…
This is a three-pronged approach! In the end, the Khan became suspicious and jealous of Queen Xiao’s secret dealings with Zhao, which led to her death in a wrongful imprisonment!
The ‘Ten Fragrant Words’ (incorrectly called Ten Fragrant Words), as seen in the community, has some omissions and fallacies! There are even translations from mainland simplified Chinese (Note 1). Simplified to destroy the beauty of the Chinese text to the extreme, often people do not know what to do, so that the ancient text of the face is completely different, thinking about it does not inevitably make people throw the pen hao sigh, is really hateful!
When editing an ancient text, the first priority is to preserve its authenticity, and we should do our best to make sure that the original sound is reproduced, rather than acting on our own, so that we can have a glimpse of what the ancients called ‘the book in the suitcase’ of the original appearance. Its value is based on the elegance of its mood, not exclusively on the stimulation of the faculties to win.
Leaving aside the blood and tears of the court struggle. The original text is a flavorful poem, counting the details of women, and is very interesting.
Today, according to the ancient version of the fine school is as follows, in order to entertain our friends.
