韩子高,会稽山阴人,出身微残,世代以做鞋为生。子高时年16岁,长得容貌艳丽,纤细美好,清白如雪,如美女一般。额广而方,头发光滑油亮,眉自然、悠细而长,见的人无不啧啧称羡。当时兵荒马乱,乱军挥舞兵刃(要杀他时),提起刀刃的瞬间,不出声的忍住了,更是拿开兵刃了好几次。陈霸先的从子陈茜,被授予将军,在吴兴任职,韩子高在淮渚附近的部队里暂居,附乘那的交通工具,以求返回家乡。陈茜乍见到他,大为惊奇,问道:“你想要得到荣华富贵吗?何不跟我走?”子高答应了。陈茜身材高大、魁梧,器量小,牙齿咬得格格响,眼眶都瞪裂了,子高能承受得住。陈茜刚想发作但忍住了,说:“该不会让你受了很大的创伤吗?”子高说:“我的身体是您的,就是死罢了,怎能如此怜惜呢?”陈茜更加疼爱他。韩子高皮肤纹理色泽光亮,柔弱委靡,柔美细润,但两臂修长,善于骑射,象风一样。陈茜经常写诗,赠给他,道:“昔闻周小史,今歌月下人。玉尘手不别,羊车市若空。谁愁两雄并,金貂应让侬。”又说:“人家说我有帝王相;果真如此;到时我便册封你为皇后,但是恐怕同性,会遭人厌恶的。”子高叩头说:“古代有女帝王,当然有男皇后。有名位的人被赐予特殊恩遇,我还躲避了作吴孟子吗?”陈茜做梦梦到骑马登山,路途危险,将要坠落是,是子高推捧着登上去的。陈茜要任用他时,他愿意为将军,并配给他宝刀,别在腹部。
韩子高是会稽山阴(今浙江绍兴)人。出身微贱,梁朝侯景之乱时,他流寓在京都。侯景之乱平定后,陈蒨出为吴兴太守。韩子高当时十六岁,头戴角巾,容貌美丽,状似妇人,也准备随众还乡。陈蒨见了他之后颇为喜爱,将其收为己用。韩子高本名蛮子,陈蒨给他改名子高。子高恭敬谨慎,勤于侍奉,陈蒨性急,而子高总能领会他的意思。陈蒨十分宠爱他,一刻也不让他离开自己左右。陈蒨曾梦见自己骑马登山,路危欲坠,子高推捧而升。因此陈蒨即皇帝位后,就任命子高为右军将军,宿值禁中。陈蒨与韩子高的断袖之交被后代的文学家一再演绎,在唐代人李诩所撰的《陈子高传》中,韩子高被改为姓陈,二人的关系也被描写的更加具体。陈蒨初幸子高的时候,子高疼痛无比,把被子都咬破了。事后陈蒨说:“是不是把你弄疼了?”子高说:“身是公身也,死而亦安敢爱?”陈蒨还有立子高为后的想法,曾对子高说:“人言吾有帝王相,审尔,当册汝为后,但恐同性至嫌耳。”而在明人王骥德所创作的杂剧《男皇后》中,子高真的摇身一变,成了男皇后。剧中的陈蒨独白:“前日军中带的个美人回来,他模样儿娉婷,性格儿伶俐,倒都不在话下。我平常性子最急,宦官宫女,略不像意,一日不知砍下几颗头来!只他在面前,天大的事也都吊在脑后去了。怪物怪物!今日是个好日头,我就备册玺冠帔,立他做个正宫。”这也是中国古代文学作品中唯一的男皇后。
韩子高,野史称作陈子高,本名蛮子,出身微残,世代以做鞋为生。侯景之乱期间,蛮子寓居京城建康,时年16岁,长得容貌艳丽,纤研清白,如美女一般。当时兵荒马乱,蛮子几次陷入绝境,但每次乱军兵刃就要加到他的头上的时候,总是因为惊叹他的美貌而不忍下手。蛮子靠着美貌死里逃生,后来正准备随同部伍还乡的时候,无意碰上了陈霸先的从子陈茜(蒨),也就是后来的陈文帝。 陈茜乍见如花似玉的蛮子,大为震惊,继而心中大喜,上前问蛮子道:“你可想享受荣华富贵?何不跟我走?”蛮子抬头见是一个英俊的年轻将军在跟自己说话,相信他能够为自己带来好运,便答应了。陈茜嫌他名字太俗,便让他改名子高。从此韩子高便作为陈茜的娈童,随陈茜起居出入,很受陈茜的宠爱。陈茜性情暴躁,只要有所怨恨,马上便气得眼冒火星,牙齿咬得格格响,好像要吃人的样子,但他只要见了子高,便怒气全消了。韩子高如此见爱,当然会加倍曲意奉迎,以讨陈茜的欢心。陈茜曾对韩子高说:“人家说我有帝王相;果真如此;到时我便册封你为皇后。”韩子高叩头到:“古时候有女皇帝,那么也应该有男皇后,承蒙你垂青于我,我又何必推辞做吴孟子呢?”可见他俩情爱之深。当然,陈茜后来登上皇帝宝座的时候,并没有封韩子高为皇后,只是任他为右军将军,加散骑常侍。
韩子高,是会稽山阴地方的人。身世卑微低贱,以织鞋为职业来维持生计。当时韩子高尚且还只有十二三岁,姿容外貌美艳端丽,身形纤细肤色洁白,像美丽的妇女一样。螓一样的头,天生蛾眉,凡是见到的人都啧啧赞叹。即使有战乱兵卒挥刀,刀劈下时,突然闭嘴收敛。
