南北朝三十六猛将中的夏姬究竟何时出生何时逝世
夏姬——北方的佳人美丽与神秘
夏姬,一个名字,在春秋时期就已响起了震撼世界的音符。她的 姓氏是姬,她的出生和离世年份至今仍是一个谜。据记载,她是郑国国都(今天河南郑州新郑)的一个女子,父亲是郑穆公,而母亲则是少妃姚子。这位名叫夏姬的女子,不仅拥有绝色的容貌,更有着深不可测的魅力。
《清华简》中提到了她的一段历史,那是一本保存了数千年古文字遗迹的小册子。在这本简牍中,夏姬被称为“少(上孔下皿)”这个名字,这对于理解她的身份和地位来说,是一大发现。她以其美貌和野心闻名于世,与多位诸侯、大夫通奸,最终引发了一系列连环事件,被后人传颂为“杀三夫一君一子,亡一国两卿”。
在春秋时代,她因嫁给陈国的大夫夏御叔而得名“夏姬”。当御叔去世之后,她留下了一个儿子,即未来将继承父业成为陈国司马的人物——夏征舒。在她的生命轨迹中,每一次婚配似乎都伴随着传奇。
从最初嫁给并失去丈夫子蛮,再嫁给陈灵公的大夫夏御叔,一直到与楚庄王私通,无不充满了戏剧性。而每一次变动,都让她身边的人无法预料接下来会发生什么。在一次激烈的情感纠葛后,她甚至被送进楚国宫廷,但依旧无法逃脱自己的命运。
刘向在他的《列女传》中评价说:“三为王后,七为夫人”,虽然实际上她没有真正做过王后,也没有结过那么多次婚事,但这样的描述足以反映出当时人们对她的敬仰与迷恋。对于她为什么能够如此吸引众人,《列女传》认为:“其状美好无匹,内挟伎术,盖老而复壮者。”
这一切,让我们不得不思考:究竟是什么力量使得一个女人能够在那个年代成为这样的人物?是否只是外表上的美丽?还是更深层次的心理魅力?
Summer Beauty: The Enigmatic Summer Qī
Summer Qī, a name that echoes through history. Born in the ancient city of Zheng (now Zhengzhou, Henan), she was the daughter of Duke Mu of Zheng and his concubine, Lady Yǎo. Her life is shrouded in mystery; her birth and death dates remain unknown.
The Clearing Away Dust Collection mentions her as "Shào" () - an enigmatic title that hints at her complex identity. Known for her beauty and promiscuity, she has left an indelible mark on history.
Married to Chen's Lord Xiao-Ōrǔzǐ as a child bride after the early death of her first husband, she bore him a son named Xíngshū. When Lord Xiao-Ōrǔzǐ passed away, Summer became the wife of Chen's King Línggōng and had affairs with various high-ranking officials like Kong Níng () and Yíxíngfù (). This led to escalating tensions within Chen's court.
Captured by Chu's King Zhuāngwáng (), she was given to Cuxiǎn Lǎo () as his wife before eventually being sent back to Zheng under false pretenses during Shen Gong Wúchēn 's rebellion against Chu. She later fled with Shen Gong Wúchēn to Jin.
According to legend, Summer possessed extraordinary skills in both sexual arts and yin-yang medicine, maintaining eternal youthfulness even into old age. In Liu Xiá 's Records of Virtuous Women (), it is said that "She held three royal titles but seven noble ones." Though not actually holding royal or marital positions corresponding to these numbers,
her reputation speaks volumes about the allure she held over men during that time period.
The Records attribute this enchantment largely due
to "her exceptional beauty," combined with knowledge
of magical techniques allowing her youthful appearance
to persist even into old age.
This enigma continues captivating us today,
inspiring questions about what exactly makes someone like
Summer so fascinating - merely their physical charm,
or something deeper?
