This is fiction, but it is thought to exist. Who are the historical figures?
The history of China is sometimes handed down in the form of legends. Some real historical events are often interspersed with false or fabricated storylines, and some real historical figures are often accompanied by fictional characters, which makes you surprised at the purity or kindness, courage or tenacity of this character. But when you really look for this person's biography in historical books, you often can't find any clues, which makes people feel disappointed. This is the case with the following people:

The story of diusim: the legendary peerless beauty, an outstanding beauty, once told Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo to kill each other. The stories of Shi, Wang Zhaojun and Di Xin, and Yang Guifei are known as the "four beauties in ancient China" for their beauty of "sinking fish and falling geese" and "closing the moon and feeling ashamed of flowers". In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Luo Guanzhong described the story that Diusim used "a series of stratagems" to alienate the relationship between treacherous court official Dong Zhuo and adopted son Lu Bu, which was destroyed one after another. However, there is no record about the story of Diusim in the history books such as the History of the Three Kingdoms, the History of the Later Han Dynasty and the History of the Later Han Dynasty, which shows that the story of Diusim is a fictional character.

Yu Ziqi: He is one of the Five Tiger Generals under Xiang Yu, who is well known. In the historical novel The Popular Romance of the Western Han Dynasty, Wei Zhen, a member of Amin Dynasty, listed Mei Zhongli, Ying Bu, Long Qie, Jibu and Yu Ziqi, who had made outstanding contributions to Xiang Yu's farmland, as "five generals under Xiang Yu's account". Although Mei Zhongli, Ying Bu, Long Qie, Kibby and others were indeed subordinates of Xiang Yu and made many contributions, after searching the main historical books at that time, such as Historical Records and Hanshu, Yu Ziqi's words were not found. So the legend played a big joke on us. There is no such hero as Yu Ziqi in history, but many ordinary people believe in his existence and continue the legend.

Mu: A famous young man. Mu is Yang Ye's daughter-in-law and wife. She is resourceful, brave and superb in martial arts. In the war of aggression against Liao, most of Yang Jiajiang died and men withered. In order to defend the country, 100-year-old She Taijun took command personally and led 12 widows to resist Liao soldiers. 53-year-old Mu went out to defeat the Liao soldiers. Therefore, "Mu Guiying takes the lead" has become a household name.

However, there is no such person as Mu Guiying in history. She is just a novel character in Xiong's novel The Legend of Northern Song Dynasty and Ji Zhenlun's novel The Romance of Yang Family House in Ming Dynasty. But for thousands of years, people almost believed in the existence of Mu Guiying and Yangmen.

Su Xiaomei: Su Dongpo's clever and witty sister. Almost all women and children in China know the name Su Xiaomei. The "Dongpo Q&A Record" written by the Southern Song Dynasty once said: "Dongpo's sister is also the wife who travels less." Feng Menglong interprets the story of "Su Xiaomei's Three Difficult Grooms" in Awakening the World, saying that Su Xiaoxun is the wife of Su Dongpo's student and great talent Qin Shaoyou.

As a student of Su Dongpo and a bachelor of Su Men, Qin Shaoyou often studied in Su Family and was deeply attracted by the clever and lovely Su Xiaomei. Later, Su Dongpo decided to marry his sister to Qin Shaoyou. On the wedding night, Su Xiaomei wanted to test Qin Shaoyou's talent, so he shut Qin Shaoyou out of the door and said, "East wing, west wing, new people from old houses enter the wedding room and become the best man for life." Let Qin Shaoyou be right. Qin Shaoyou heard the sound and replied: "I studied in the south and studied in the north. The primary school gave imperial academy a big exam before I married the bride."

Su Xiaomei was surprised by Qin Shaoyou's agility. While he was happy, it was even more difficult for Qin Shaoyou to confront him, and even more difficult for Qin Shaoyou to fight one-on-one. Su Xiaomei happily let him into the bridal chamber. However, according to historical data, Su Dongpo has no other adult sister except one who died at a few years old, let alone such a beautiful, young and intelligent sister.
