Liu Guozong reveals the scandalous secret history of Dream of the Red Chamber Part Four

That the number one beauty in the world....

(VI), Yang Guifei is the number one beauty in the world――

Yang Guifei was the beloved concubine of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang, Li Longji. For this dear treasure, Li Longji, that old lecher, loved Yang Guifei so much that he kept her in his mouth, fearing she would get hot; held her in his hands, fearing she would fall.

Yang Guifei was a naturally beautiful woman, a peerless beauty who could topple cities and nations. People say that when Yang Guifei bathed in the Magnificent Clear Pool, the flowers around the pool dared not bloom, and the moon dared not show its face. Because the flowers know that even if they bloom more beautifully, they cannot surpass the beauty of Yang Guifei fresh from her bath; even the moon knows that even if it is more beautiful, it cannot surpass Yang Guifei dressed in gauze.

The great Tang poet Bai Juyi said that when Yang Guifei smiled, all the beauties in the palace paled ___

"A glance back, a smile, and a hundred charms arise; the makeup of the six palaces loses its color.

In spring chill, the emperor granted a bath at the Magnificent Clear Pool; the hot spring water was smooth, congealing like fat.""

What a beautiful beauty she is; such a great beauty, in the past only the emperor could enjoy her, others merely looking would be guilty.

(VII), Old Cripple, stop bragging; An Lushan's papaya injured the beauty's breast, that beauty is not Yang Guifei. It is――

"Old Cripple, don't brag anymore; if you keep bragging, I'll blow your bullshit up. Cao Xueqin said that An Lushan threw a papaya at the beauty's breast, but the beauty injured by An Lushan's papaya was not Yang Guifei, but Emperor Xuanzong's sister, Princess Zhenzhen! You've mixed things up."

"You say my memory is bad! According to your talk, that rascal An Lushan had his eye on two beauties of the Tang?" Lao Can apologetically said to me.

"Old Cripple, it's not that your memory is bad; I again suspect your morality is lacking. You old scoundrel, back in the day at the Yellow River crossing in Shandong, you carried your wife and did those sneaky, shameful deeds—I know a bit about them. If you don't tell the truth, I'll expose you** to your wife."

"Little brother, spare me this once; please don't tell my wife about what I did at the Yellow River**; if that yellow-faced woman finds out, she'll surely jump off a building. Just now I was talking nonsense. The fact that An Lushan threw a papaya and injured Princess Zhenzhen is common knowledge. But you're too naïve—do you think I would easily spill the scandalous secrets of Dream of the Red Chamber? Above I just spouted a few lines to hook your taste; the real excitement is still ahead. If you really want to hear the exciting part that follows, you must first agree to one condition.",

The condition Lao Can raised: recite the love poem Li Bai wrote for the great beauty Yang Guifei.

Friend, if you want to know what that love poem is like, please see the following――
