The noble concubine Chen Empress of the Southern Dynasties was a typical Jiangnan woman. Zhang Lihua was born as a geisha, with seven-foot-long hair, a discerning eye, picturesque features, keen eloquence and an extraordinary memory, so she was deeply loved by Chen Shubao, the Empress of Chen. The famous song about the subjugation of the country - "Jade Tree Flower" was composed for her.
