The Yang was the highest ranking Imperial concubine of Tang Minghuang. Her real name was Yang Yuhuan. She loved dancing and her favorite flower was the peony. She was granted the reward of death during the war between An Lushan and Shi Siming. The Ming Empror wrote a poem called “the Long Regret Poem” to express missing his lover. This well-known poem has been handed down from generation to generation. Yuhuan is considered to be one of the four most beautiful women of ancient China. It is believed that she was so beautiful that she could make the flowers fell shy and close their petals.
