Since ancient times, “heroes find it difficult to overcome beauties”, even wise and intelligent emperors are no exception. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was once so infatuated with Yang Guifei that he became infatuated.

How much did Emperor Xuanzong of Tang favor Yang Guifei?
Yang Guifei was originally the daughter-in-law of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang. Because he was so fascinated by Yang Guifei's beauty, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang could not help but want to possess her as his own. Having the beauty, he loved her very much.
All of Yang Guifei's requests were met by him. The beauty's family also gained more position and power because of that. Yang Guifei's three older sisters were successively appointed as wives.
Her brother, a scoundrel, also became a prime minister. To win the beauty's smile, he did not hesitate to send someone on horseback to deliver fresh cloth. This small detail is enough to show his love for the beauty.
However, Emperor Xuanzong wanted more beauties around him so he sent people to recruit them everywhere. This made Yang Guifei extremely jealous and angered the emperor.
In anger, Emperor Xuanzong ordered someone to take Yang Guifei back to her maternal home. But the emperor could not sleep well at night, he felt like he was “living in hell” so he ordered someone to take Yang Guifei back to the palace that night.

What is different about Yang Guifei?
All the courtiers and concubines were afraid of Emperor Xuanzong, but Yang Guifei was different. She was the only one who could enter deep into the heart of this emperor. She only had "love" for the king, not "fear".
The existence of Concubine Yang allowed Emperor Xuanzong of Tang to feel the simple love between husband and wife like ordinary people. In the vast palace, only Concubine Yang considered Emperor Xuanzong as a family member. Therefore, only when she was by his side could he sleep well.
Because of that love, even Yang Guifei's bad habit of "snoring" made him happy. Every time he heard Yang Guifei snoring, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang felt secure and comfortable, and could sleep soundly until morning.
It can be seen that, in addition to her stunning beauty, Yang Guifei's unique features made Emperor Xuanzong of Tang infatuated, thereby establishing her solid position among the countless beauties of the harem.
