What are the ugly emperors in history?
I think the uglier emperors in history are Emperor Kangxi, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ying Zheng, the king of Qin. God gave them literary skills, but their looks seemed to be discounted. I'm not sure what they look like. However, according to the description of the world and their portraits seen in the book, I think these three should be ranked lower among so many emperors in ancient times.

First of all, let me talk about Emperor Kangxi. Emperor Kangxi's achievements can be said to be very remarkable, but his figure is reported to be only about 1.7 meters, which should not be very high among boys. So in height, he is not dominant, and her face is narrow and long, just like a horse's face. In addition, according to historical records, Emperor Kangxi had smallpox when he was a child and had freckles on his face, so his appearance should be bad.

The second is Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang described in the book looks like this. His forehead is very high, his eyes are small, his nose is sunken, his lips are thick and big, his ears are super thick, his cheeks are prominent and his chin is very big. Although he is quite tall, his back is bent like a bow and arrow and his waist is as thick as a bucket. And as a man, he has narrow shoulders, big hands and slender fingers.

The last emperor was Ying Zheng, the king of Qin. Qin Shihuang was a very great emperor, but his appearance was ordinary. There is a folk saying that Qin Shihuang's face is as black as a jackal. Later generations also said that his nose was big and hollow, his eyes were slender, his sternum was raised, his skin was dark and his beard was long. Although I haven't seen Qin Shihuang, it's really not his portrait.
