Does Mu Guiying, the heroine of A Hero among Women, really exist as a legendary woman in history?
Finally, let's talk about Tianmen array. The array in the book is somewhat exaggerated because of the participation of spells. In fact, it is correct to simply understand it as a formation. Although Mu is rare in history, her heroism is still worth learning. Among the names of Yang Liulang Yanlang, there are Zongbao, Zong Zheng and Zongmian respectively; Yang's genealogy discovered in Huangmei, Hubei Province, is more clearly recorded, including "Mu, the wife of Zong Bao, gave birth to two sons". It can be seen that there are Mu and two people in the Yangjia genealogy.
But Yang Zongbao and Mu Guiying are fictional characters. The story in the novel is based on Yang in history. Mu's story in the novel may have been influenced by Zhe Taijun. Zhe Taijun is the prototype of She Saihua in the novel. The most prominent record is that he commanded the Liao Dynasty and was named Huntianhou. Later, She Taijun was 100 years old, and 12 was a widow in the Western Expedition. The real history is that Yang's son is Yang. He is a veteran of Fan Zhongyan who fought Xixia in Song Renzong. Some were only defeated by the Empress Dowager Liao in the Northern Song Dynasty and defeated by Song Bing for the last time. Xiao Taihou tricked the Song Dynasty into signing the surrender treaty of the Single Source Alliance, but the monarch and subjects in the Northern Song Dynasty were really willing to sign the tribute treaty on the basis of victory.
Murong Zhaoyan was honored as a "brother" by Song Taizu and was crowned king after his death. Later generations married the Zhao royal family, so it is not surprising that Mr. Murong married Yang.
