In Chinese historical legend, it is said that there were four Great Beauties: Xi Shi, Wang Zhaojun, Diaochan, and Yang Guifei. Most of them were made to become concubines or maids of the emperors. They were so beautiful that they put nature to shame. When fish looked at Xi Shi, they forgot how to swim. When Wang Zhaojun went outside, birds fell from the sky. Diaochan made the moon hide in shame, and Yang Guifei caused the flowers to close.
But there was also a fifth great beauty who was lesser known. She lived during the warring states period. She was known as the greatest beauty in all of the villages near and far when she was young. She was taken by the ruthless warlord of the north when she was just a child. When she walked in the courtyard, the wind blew to lift her dress. The clouds saw her, and they got wet, and they rained their seed on her. The wind picked up. It turned into a tornado. It swept her up and tore her clothes all off.
When the court eunuchs found her and took her back to the palace, the cruel king was humiliated he had been cucked by nature. "Let that whore go!" he said to his eunuchs. They released her into the wild, and she roamed the mountains and forests along the Yellow River, loving and living off the land.
The evil king went insane with regret. He stood in his courtyard for days looking up at the sky. One day when a fierce storm came, he didn't move. The court servants tried to wake him from his stupor. The wind picked up. Trees were falling. Rivers were flooding. The local peasants said he had lost the mandate of heaven. But the king kept staring up at the sky until he was struck by a powerful lightening strike.
