Autumn and Winter Check-in Challenge
In medieval France, the lavish life of royalty was breathtaking. It is said that there was a French king who was so fond of bathing that he ordered craftsmen to create a huge marble bathtub for him, which could accommodate dozens of people bathing at the same time. To keep the water clean, the king also ordered workers to bring pure spring water from the mountains and set up a sophisticated filtration system in the baths.
Not only that, but the king was also very particular about the decoration of the bathrooms. He inlaid the walls with precious stones and **, and also hung beautiful frescoes. Every time he bathed, the king would put on ornate robes and jewelry, as if he were performing a grand ceremony.
In addition to bathing, the banquets of the French royal family were also very luxurious. It is said that once the king held a grand banquet to which hundreds of nobles and celebrities were invited. The banquet was filled with a variety of food and wine, as well as a wonderful song and dance performance. To make the guests feel more comfortable, the king also ordered the workers to place a large amount of ice in the banquet hall to keep the room cool.
However, these lavish lifestyles have also caused discontent. Some people believe that the lavish life of the royal family is too wasteful and not in line with moral and ethical norms. As a result, some reformers began to call on the royal family to save money and pay more attention to social welfare and public utilities.
Still, the lavish life of the French royal family remains a great spectacle of medieval history, reflecting the opulence and prosperity of the society of the time.
