Mrs. Yazhai is a name given to the bandit leader, bandit leader or the wife of a bandit leader who ruled the mountain in ancient times. The name Mrs. Yazhai first appeared in "The Romance of the West Chamber" written by Wang Shifu of the Yuan Dynasty. The original text is: "Half a million thieves gathered at the temple gate, holding frost blades across their hands, shouting that they wanted Yingying to be Mrs. Yazhai." Since then, the word "Mrs. Yazhai" has been widely quoted in old operas and novels, and has become a A "buzzword".
There is another theory about the origin of the name Mrs. Yazhai. It is said that the name Mrs. Yazhai comes from "Mrs. Jiazhai" and originated from the Battle of Jiazhai in the Tang Dynasty. Jiazhai is a place near Changzhi. Because it is located on a high mountain outside Luzhou City, with dangerous terrain and a centipede-like shape, it is known as "Jiazhai".
The name of the garrison general in Jiazhai was Fu Daozhao. One day he went out to herd horses and rescued a woman who fell into the water by the river. This woman was named Hou. In order to express her gratitude to Fu Daozhao, she rescued a woman who fell into the water. Married Fu Daozhao as his wife. Hou is not only beautiful, but also gentle and virtuous, proficient in music and good at playing the pipa. Whenever Fu Daozhao encountered something sad, Hou would give him gentle advice, drink wine and play the piano, which would always make Fu Daozhao's worries disappear.
In 908 AD, the Jin and Liang armies fought in Jiazhai, and Fu Daozhao died in the battle. One day, Jin King Li Cunxu was attracted by the sound of "Eighteen Beats of Hujie" coming from the mountains and forests, and went away in search of the music. Li Cunxu met Hou. Li Cunxu fell in love with Hou at first sight and took her into the palace. Li Cunxu usually hid Hou in the harem and asked Hou to burn incense and play the piano for him. During wars, he asked Hou to dress up as a woman and took her with him to favor her. The soldiers called Hou "Mrs. Jiazhai". Due to the pronunciation of the word "jia" and "press" in Jiazhaifu, over time, people called Mrs. Jiazhai "Mrs. Yazhai".
In fact, there is another reason why bandits and bandits like to call the leader's wife "Mrs. Yazhai". Because the word "pressure" means "steadiness" and "calmness" in Chinese Chinese, we chose "stability". "Yazhai" means "stabilizing the stronghold", and "Madame Yazhai" means "the lady who can stabilize the stronghold". The name "Mrs. Yazhai" is easy to pronounce, and it can also be considered auspicious.
