The Legend of Zhao Feiyan

Zhao Hou Feiyan's father was Feng Wanjin. Her grandfather, Dali, was skilled in musical instruments and served as a music official under the King of Jiangdu. Wanjin refused to inherit

the family business, instead composing and learning music. He created elaborate and mournful tunes, calling them "the music of the common man." Those who heard them were moved.

The princess of Gusu, granddaughter of the King of Jiangdu, married Zhao Man, the military commander of Jiangdu. Man favored Wanjin, but they ate separately and Wanjin became intimate with the princess. The princess became pregnant

, but Man was extremely jealous and had a pre-existing illness, so he avoided women. The princess was afraid and feigned illness to stay in the palace. She gave birth to twins, who were given to Wanjin. The elder was named Yizhu, and

the younger was named Hede, but both adopted the surname Zhao. Yizhu was intelligent from a young age, and her family possessed a book on the

art of pulse diagnosis by Peng Zu. She was skilled in qigong and grew up to be slender and graceful, with elegant movements. People called her Feiyan (Flying Swallow). Hede was smooth and supple, and could not get wet after bathing. She was skilled in music and her voice was gentle and

pleasant to listen to. Both women were exceptionally beautiful.

After Wan Jin's death, the Feng family fell into ruin. Fei Yan

and her younger siblings wandered to Chang'an, where they were known as Master Zhao, or some said to be the other sons of Man. She lived in the same neighborhood as Zhao Lin, the head of the Yang'a household, and relied on him for support. She repeatedly embroidered and presented these works to him, which he readily accepted. Living in Lin's household,

she was called Lin's daughter. Lin often had women serving in the palace, fell ill, and died. Fei Yan was sometimes referred to as the deceased. Fei Yan and her younger siblings served as

servants in the Yang'a household, often secretly imitating his singing and dancing, their thoughts becoming so intense that they would listen all day without eating. The servants were poor and extravagant, spending lavishly on cosmetics and

bath products, their extravagance causing others to consider them foolish.

Fei Yan met a bird hunter in her neighborhood. Being poor, Fei Yan shared a blanket with He De. One snowy night, they would meet the bird hunter near their hut. Fei

Yan stood in the open , holding her breath and calming her body, her fever subsiding. The bird hunter was amazed, believing her to be a deity. Feiyan, through the influence of her master's family

, gained entry into the palace and was summoned by the emperor. Her aunt, Fan, was an official in the Ministry of Personnel and thus knew of Feiyan's affair with the bird-shooter, which chilled her heart. When the emperor favored her, Feiyan

closed her eyes tightly, tears streaming down her face, trembling and refusing to greet him. The emperor embraced Feiyan, but could not take her in for three nights, showing no remorse. A concubine

who was a favorite in the palace calmly asked the emperor, who replied: "Full-figured yet supple, seemingly boneless, hesitant and humble, seemingly distant yet approachable, this is a person of

propriety and righteousness. How could she be compared to a maidservant who grovels?" After their encounter, her body was stained with blood, and the concubine whispered to Feiyan: "Does the bird-shooter not approach women?"

Feiyan replied: "I have examined myself for three days, and my flesh is full and plump. Your Majesty's body is robust, and you have hurt me greatly." From then on, Feiyan was especially favored

in the harem and was called Empress Zhao.

The emperor resided in the side room of the Mandarin Duck Palace and reviewed the imperial records. The emperor submitted a memorial, stating, "Feiyan has a younger sister named Hede, who is beautiful,

virtuous, and trustworthy, unlike Feiyan." The emperor immediately ordered his attendant, Lü Yanfu, to fetch Hede in a carriage adorned with phoenix feathers and precious jewels. Hede

declined, saying, "I dare not go without my sister's summons; I would gladly behead myself to report to the palace." Yanfu returned and reported this to the emperor, who then obtained the necessary documents. Later, a five-colored

brocade was used as a talisman to summon Hede. Hede had just bathed and applied nine layers of agarwood incense. Her hair was styled in curls, called "New Bun";

her eyebrows were thin, called "Distant Mountain Darkening"; and she wore a touch of rouge, called "Lazy Makeup." She wore an old short embroidered skirt with small sleeves and socks with white patterns. The emperor went to the Yunguang Hall, and the

eunuch Fan presented Hede. Hede declined, saying, "My sister is cruel and jealous, easily destroying my kindness. I would not die for this shame, but if not for my sister's teaching, I would gladly exchange

my body for this shame, not expecting to return immediately." Her voice was pleasant and clear, drawing admiration from those around her. The emperor then returned Hede to the palace.

During the reign of Emperor Xuan, a scholar named Nao Fangcheng, with white hair, taught in the palace and was known as Lady Nao. She spat at the Emperor and Empress, saying, "This is

a source of trouble ; she will surely be extinguished!" The Emperor, following Fan's advice, built a separate pavilion for the Empress, bestowing upon her a purple cloud-patterned canopy, a jade table,

and a nine-tiered gold brocade border. He

then subtly suggested to the Empress, "Your Majesty has long been childless; do you not consider the long-term future of the palace? Why not frequently present yourselves to Your Majesty seeking a son?" The Empress, understanding the situation, presented He De that night. The Emperor was greatly pleased, finding her body exquisite and alluring, calling it a "land of gentle pleasures.

" He said, "I am old in this land; I cannot emulate Emperor Wu's pursuit of a land of white clouds." He shouted "Long live the Emperor!" and congratulated her, saying, "Your Majesty

has truly attained immortality." The Emperor immediately bestowed upon her ten thousand gold pieces and twenty-four bolts of brocade. He De was especially favored and given the title of Consort Zhao.

After often bowed to her son. Later, while sitting with Consort Jieyu, the Empress accidentally spat on Consort Jieyu's sleeve. Consort Jieyu said, "Sister, your spittle stains your dark blue sleeve, just like the '

flower on a stone.' Even if the Imperial Workshop were to make it, it might not be as splendid as this garment, making it a 'stone-flower wide sleeve.'" Later, while residing in the Yuantiao Pavilion,

the Empress had affairs with many palace servants and men with many children. Consort Jieyu wholeheartedly protected them, often saying to the Emperor, "Sister, you are strong-willed. If someone were to frame you, the Zhao family would be without

descendants." She would often weep bitterly, and thus, anyone who revealed the Empress's illicit affairs was executed by the Emperor. The palace servant Xian Yunxiang, who lived a life of unrestrained indulgence in

the Yuantiao Pavilion, was not dared to speak out. The Empress ultimately had no children. The Empress bathed in a bath of five essences and seven fragrances, sat on a seat of fragrant agarwood, and burned incense to descend the spirit of a hundred essences.

Consort Jieyu bathed in a bath of cardamom and applied a powder of dew and a hundred flowers. The Emperor once privately told Fan, "Although the Empress has a unique fragrance, it is not as naturally

fragrant as Consort Jieyu's."

Li Yanghua, a former concubine of the Prince of Jiangdu, had a aunt who was the wife of Feng Dali. Yang Hua married into the Feng family, and later his siblings and mother served Yang Hua.

Yang Hua was skilled in adornment and often taught the Empress to use nine times agarwood and musk in her navel to infuse her with internal energy. The Consort also infused her with internal energy, frequently testing it,

but found that as a woman, her menstrual flow became increasingly thin. One day, the Empress spoke of this to Shangguan Wu, the official in charge of medicine at the Imperial Palace. Wu replied, "If this is the case, how

can you have a child?" She instructed the Empress to boil beautiful flowers and wash them with the infusion, but it was ineffective. The Zhenla barbarians presented a ten-thousand-year-old clam and a "night-shining pearl,"

whose radiance was like the moon, illuminating all who were beautiful or ugly. The Emperor bestowed the clam upon the Empress and the pearl upon the Consort. The Empress adorned herself with a five-tiered golden curtain made of clam shells, and within the curtain, she

always appeared as if under a full moon. After a long time, the Emperor said to the Consort, "When I see you during the day, you are not as beautiful as when I see you at night; every morning I feel as if I have

lost something." Upon hearing this, the Consort named the pearl "The Night-Shining Pearl Before My Pillow" as her birthday gift and never became an empress. The Emperor then

increased rank. The Lady Consort presented a memorial, saying: "Heaven and earth are in harmony, and the noble lady and I are overjoyed to ascend to the rightful position. For the sake of our ancestors, we are filled with immense happiness

. Therefore, we respectfully present twenty-six items as congratulations: a gold-embroidered carpet, a bowl of agarwood lotus-heart incense,

a plate of five-colored concentric knots, a bolt of brocade adorned with mandarin ducks, a glass screen, a pillow with a night-lasting pearl, a green-furred scented

cat-shaped mat, a sandalwood elephant-shaped incense stick with tiger skin, two dragon-shaped incense sticks holding fish, a single lotus-shaped mat, a seven-petaled rhombus-shaped mirror,

four gold rings, a crimson silk robe, three pieces of scented silk hand warmers, a jar of seven-fold luster hair oil, three purple-gold

bedding incense burners, two pairs of rhinoceros horn chopsticks for warding off poison, and a jade ointment box." She then had her maid, Guo Yuqiong, present the items. In return, she presented

a five-colored brocade curtain and a jade incense burner. Consort Jieyu wept and complained to the Emperor, "If not for my sister's gift, I would never have known of this vessel." The Emperor thanked her and ordered that

Yizhou retain tribute for three years to make a seven-tiered brocade curtain for Consort Jieyu, decorated with agarwood.

Consort Jieyu received the Emperor at Taiye Pond, where a boat for a thousand people was built, named the "Boat of the Whole Palace." In the middle of the pond, Yingzhou was built, with a pavilion forty feet high.

The Emperor wore a seamless robe with flowing waves, and the Empress wore a purple skirt of cloud-like patterns, a tribute from Nanyue, and light silk of jade. On the spacious pavilion, the Empress sang and danced

the "Returning Wind Sending Away Distant Things" song. The Emperor struck a jade bowl with a rhinoceros horn hairpin and ordered Feng Wufang, the Empress's favorite attendant, to play the sheng (a type of reed pipe), leaning against

the Empress as she sang in the middle of the stream. As the song reached its climax, a strong wind arose, and the Empress followed the wind, her voice rising. Wufang inhaled deeply, his delicate breath echoing hers. The Empress, on her thigh, said, "Look at me, look at me!" The Empress raised

her sleeve and said, "A fairy, a fairy! Leaving the old for the new, how could I forget?" The Emperor said, "Wufang, hold the Empress for me!" Wufang

put down his reed pipe and held the Empress's shoes. After a long while, the wind cleared, and the Empress wept, saying, "The Emperor's favor has made me ascend to immortality without waiting." She sighed sadly,

tears streaming down her face. The Emperor loved the Empress even more, bestowing upon her countless gifts and allowing her to enter his chambers. Later, the palace maids who were favored by the Emperor sometimes wore pleated skirts,

called "Fairy-Retaining Skirts.

" The Consorts became increasingly favored, receiving the title of Zhaoyi, and were granted access to the Jin Yuan Tiao Pavilion. The Emperor built a palace for the Consorts, consisting of the Lu Hua Hall, Han Feng Hall, Bo Chang

Hall, and Qiu An Hall, all as front halls; the rear halls included the Warm Chamber, the Ning Gang Chamber, and the Yu Lan Chamber, with winding corridors and connecting railings, adorned with gold.

White jade, with a disc-shaped exterior and interior, ever-changing in form, connected to the distant pavilion, known as the Gate to Immortality.

Later, favored and indulged in debauchery, she sent people to seek out sorcerers, searching for a way to prolong life and avoid aging. At that time, a barbarian from the southwest, known as the Barbarian, sent tribute

. His envoy ate only one meal a day and did not sleep day or night. The Empress Dowager, a vassal state, reported this, noting the frequent occurrence of strange phenomena. Hearing this, she asked about his magic.

The barbarian said, "My magic balances heaven and earth, life and death, existence and non-existence, and transforms all things without ever changing." The Empress Dowager ordered Fan's

disciple　 Bu Zhou, to give him a thousand gold pieces, but the barbarian said, "Those who learn my magic must not be lewd or speak falsehoods." The Empress Dowager then did not reply. Another day, Fan served the Empress

Dowager while she bathed, and they talked happily. The Empress Dowager then told Fan about the barbarian's words. Zhang Xiao said, "I remember when we were in Jiangdu, Yanghua Li Gu

kept fighting ducks by the pond, but otters were biting them. At that time, a woman named Rui from Zhuli asked to catch an otter. The woman said to Li Gu, 'This otter doesn't eat anything else,

so feed it ducks.' Li Gu got angry and strangled the otter. Now, the barbarians' tricks are just like this." The Empress laughed loudly and said, "What good are those stinking barbarians to my strangulation

!"

The palace maid Yan Qifeng, whom the Empress had an affair with, was agile and capable of surpassing the beauty of the pavilion, and was also close to the Zhaoyi. Chifeng first came from the Shaopin Pavilion, and the

Empress happened to come to visit on the fifth day of the tenth month. According to palace custom, on that day, the Xun (a type of ancient Chinese wind instrument) was played and the drums were beaten. People sang, arm in arm, stamping their feet, singing the song of Chifeng's arrival

. The Empress then asked Consort Zhao, "For whom has the red phoenix come?" Consort Zhao replied, "The red phoenix has come for my elder sister; how could it be for someone else?" The Empress,

enraged, slapped Consort Zhao's skirt with a cup, saying, "Can a rat bite a person?" Consort Zhao replied, "Wearing its clothes, one can see its private parts; how could it

bite a person?" Consort Zhao, who had always been humble before the Empress, was not expecting such a violent reply and stared at her without speaking further. Fan removed his hairpin and kowtowed until his head bled,

then helped Consort Zhao to pay her respects to the Empress. Consort Zhao bowed and wept, saying, "Sister, have you forgotten the long nights we shared, the bitter cold that kept you awake, causing He Deyong

to turn her back on you? Today you have gained high rank, surpassing everyone else, and there is no external strife. How can my brother and I bear to fight each other internally?" The Empress also wept, took

Consort Zhao's hand, and took out a nine-pronged purple jade hairpin to adorn Consort Zhao's hair before stopping. The Emperor overheard this, but fearing the Empress, he dared not ask, instead inquiring of Consort Zhao. Consort

Zhao said, "The Empress is jealous of me. Because of the fire element of the Han dynasty, she has made the Emperor a red dragon and phoenix." The Emperor believed her and was greatly pleased.

The Emperor once went hunting early in the morning and fell ill from the snow. His genitals weakened, and he could not maintain

his erection. Whenever he held Consort Zhao's feet, he could not resist his desire and would suddenly become aroused. Consort Zhao would often turn away, so the Emperor could not hold her feet for long. Fan said to Consort Zhao, "The Emperor takes the great elixir of immortality from the alchemists, but cannot obtain it.

Now he has the feet of a noble lady, and holding them makes him feel aroused. This is a great blessing bestowed upon you by Heaven.

Why don't you turn away so that the Emperor can have his way?" Consort Zhao replied, "Fortunately, turning away prevents him from having his way, so that he can still retain his desire. If I were to hold her feet as you taught me, the pleasure would be gone, and how could he still have an arousal?"

Later, she became arrogant and spoiled. When she was slightly ill, she would not eat or drink on her own and would need the Emperor to hold her spoon and chopsticks. If the medicine was bitter, she would not

swallow it .

One night, Consort Zhao entered the bathing chamber. Her skin and hair were so bright that they shone brightly, illuminating the lamplight. The Emperor secretly watched her from behind the curtain, and a maidservant

told Consort Zhao. Consort Zhao looked at her with a towel and asked the candle to be turned off. Another day, the Emperor promised to give the maidservant gold and told her not to tell anyone. The maidservant was unaware of the agreement and came out of the curtain to meet the Emperor

. She immediately went in and told Consort Zhao. Consort Zhaoyi abruptly withdrew from the palace. From then on, the Emperor secretly spied on Consort Zhaoyi from behind the curtains of the Orchid Chamber, often concealing gold in his sleeves. Whenever he encountered a maidservant or servant, he would

seize her and bestow upon her. The maidservants, greedy for the Emperor's gold, would constantly give and take it. The Emperor

then ordered that over a hundred more gold pieces be added from the treasury at night. The Emperor's illness gradually weakened, and the imperial physicians, despite their best efforts, could not save him. Seeking a rare medicine, they obtained a rare and

precious pill and gave it to Consort Zhaoyi. Consort Zhaoyi would then give it to the Emperor, one pill for each encounter. One night, Consort Zhaoyi, drunk, took seven pills. The Emperor, in a daze, embraced Consort Zhaoyi in the Nine-Tiered Tent, laughing and chuckling incessantly. At dawn, the Emperor

rose to dress, his seminal fluid gushing uncontrollably. After a while,

he collapsed Shortly after, the Emperor died. The palace maids reported this to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager ordered Consort Zhaoyi

to be dealt with. Consort Zhaoyi said, "I have treated the Emperor like an infant, and my favor is unparalleled. How can I restrain myself from interfering in matters of the inner palace?" She then pounded her chest and cried out, "Where has the Emperor gone?" She then vomited blood and died.
