Who is Concubine Mei? Why did the emperor suddenly think of her at this moment?

Jiang Caiping, named Mei Fei, is from Putian, Fujian. She is also known as Jiangdong Feifei in Putian. Because she is good at using Dendrobium Pearl and Han prescriptions to nourish the skin, she is also named Dendrobium Lady and "Zugu Empress".

Jiang Caiping was smart since childhood and was highly appreciated by her father. She taught her to read and read and recite poems since she was a child. At the age of 9, she could recite two poems in "Zhou Nan" and "Zhao Nan" which recorded the deeds of King Wen of Zhou, which recorded the deeds of King Wen of Zhou. At the age of 14, she was good at chanting poems and writing essays. She compared to Xie Daoyun, a talented girl in the Jin Dynasty. She was not only good at poetry and essays, but also proficient in musical instruments, singing and dancing, and she was good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

After Concubine Wu Hui died, the emperor sent Gao Lishi to the mission to Minyue, and Jiang Caiping was selected into the palace. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang loved him as a treasure and was favored by him to be given the first-rank imperial concubine of the Eastern Palace. Because of his love for plum blossoms, he was given the title of "Plum Concubine".

At that time, nearly 40,000 concubines in the palace were all wearing heavy makeup and dressed up. Jiang Caiping's arrival seemed to bring a wisp of breeze to the palace. She was gentle and graceful, with light makeup, refreshing and pleasant.

The most rare thing is that Jiang Caiping is not only beautiful, but also has 8-pound talents. She is good at musical instruments, singing and dancing, and also loves plum blossoms. She is surrounded by plum trees everywhere around her residence. When the flowers bloom, she wanders around her, enjoys flowers and writes essays, and is leisurely and selfless.

The emperor also pityed her love for flowers, called her concubine Mei, and ordered people to plant various plum trees in the palace, and wrote in person that the towers in the courtyard were plum pavilions and the small pavilions among the flowers were plum pavilions.

After Jiang Caiping married into the palace, she created the palace dance of the Tang Dynasty, and ordered the collection and archived the recipes and books related to beauty and skin care. She was the founder of the palace beauty and skin care system. She developed the recipe for Huzhu, which was loved by the concubines and princesses in the palace in the past dynasties. In 9 years, Tianbao, because Du Fu presented "3 Great Ceremony Fu", on La Day, the royal family invited Du Fu and others to the palace. Mrs. Huzhu gave the palace supplies. Du Fu wrote the poem "La Day": "Even if you want to drink and want to get drunk at night, you will go home to have a purple palace. The mouth fat and facial medicine will be with you, and the green pipe and silver poppy will fall to 9 o'clock."

On a day when the plum blossoms were cold and the plum blossoms were blooming, the emperor who walked on the snow and tasted the plum blossoms said to the concubine Mei: "I heard for a long time that my beloved concubine was very talented. I wrote 8 poems before entering the palace. All the Hanlin officials praised them. Since you love plum blossoms, why not write a poem about plum blossoms in the scenery?"

Mei Fei replied humbly: "How can I have a very elegant work in the countryside? I would like to give you a small poem about plum blossoms to accompany your Majesty."

Then he chanted: 1 branch with sparse shadows, resisting the cold and cold frost; the fragrance dissipated in the morning and evening, and the fragrance drifted for ten miles.

After chanting, the emperor was about to praise him, suddenly the inner minister reported to the governor of Lingnan Wei Yingwu and the governor of Suzhou Liu Yuxi to seek his visit.

These two were famous poets and Confucian officials at that time. Because they heard that Mei Fei loved plum blossoms and could recite poems and essays, they felt admiration. They specially selected local varied plum blossoms and traveled on a starry night to send them to Chang'an Jinxian.

Concubine Mei and the emperor were very happy and ordered people to plant in Concubine Mei's courtyard, rewarded Wei Yingwu and Liu Yuxi with great praise, and gave the poems about plum blossoms written by Concubine Mei to two people to taste. After reading them, the two praised them: "It turns out that the poem is like the person, and it is a woman among immortals!"

The snow cleared and the sun was clear. The emperor and Mei Fei were watching Mei Qi chess chess in the window of Mei Pavilion. Mei Fei was good at chess since she was a child. The two of them played chess, and the emperor was defeated repeatedly, so she was quite unhappy.

The understanding concubine Mei stood up and smiled and said, "This is a trick of carving insects, please don't take it to heart. The saint is concerned about the four seas and is committed to governing the country. How can I compete with the saint for victory or defeat?"
