The woman rode a donkey to get married, and after Qianlong gave way, she sent a sentence, and the bride blushed
In ancient times, on the day a woman got married, she not only had to eat and dress well, but also from her mother's house to her husband's house, regardless of distance. Before the advent of palanquins, people used horse-drawn carriages, ox carts, and other means of transportation to pick up and drop off brides. Even in places with inconvenient transportation, a small donkey will be ridden to the husband's house, and if the transportation is inconvenient, there will be a special person who carries the bride.
In short, this day is a happy day for a woman's life, so do you know who was the first woman to get on the sedan chair?Who is the origin of the woman who got married in a sedan chair?In fact, this woman also rode a donkey to get married, but she met Qianlong halfway, so she had to make way for Qianlong, but Qianlong not only gave her a sedan chair, but also sent a sentence that made the bride blush.
You see, the story continues.
If you want to say that the emperor has done the most daring thing, it is Qianlong. He went to the south of the Yangtze River six times, pretending to be an ordinary person, not only learned many folk tales, observed the suffering of the people, but also left many extraordinary stories of his own.
For example, one day he walked in the field again, watching the crops grow in style, the wind blowing through the wheat waves, everything was beautiful, so that Qianlong was dumbfounded, just when he was extremely comfortable, he suddenly heard someone shouting in front of him, and hurriedly went downstairs to see what was happening.
I saw a few people guarding a girl, the girl looked brightly dressed, riding a donkey, wearing a big red wedding dress, blowing and beating all the way, not dead. Qianlong knew that this was a team to welcome relatives.
At this time, Qianlong's team was in front of the welcoming team, so the welcoming team wanted Qianlong's team to retreat, but Qianlong's guards were unwilling, and there was a scuffle before. In particular, the married woman behaved very strictly, she said:"I've only been married once in my life. I have only been married once in my life, and if I go back now and let you pass, it will definitely affect the happiness of my life.
Qianlong listened to this woman's words, he felt that this was also a holy and bold woman, so he had the heart to tease the bride, he said: Let's not work hard along the way, you girl, if you can go under my words, not only let us go, but you don't have to ride a donkey in the future, I will send you to the sedan chair and let you sit in the sedan chair to get married, is this good?
Maybe this girl is usually so strong, she has a little ink in her stomach, and her mind is full of Qianlong's suggestions, I think maybe she is not interested in sitting in a sedan chair, the most important thing is that she is unwilling to make way for others on the way to get married. A little upset.
Qianlong saw that the woman agreed, so he didn't say anything more, and asked the question directly: pond lotus, crazy butterfly is difficult to choose.
And in this couplet, there is also a meaning of harassing the bride, and he knows that the girl is not to be outdone, and he replied without thinking:"The fairy in the painting, the wild butterfly is hard to find"。
Qianlong's heart not only secretly felt a lot better, because the girl's couplet was not only simple and clear, but also very smooth on the surface, thus seriously refuting Qianlong's harassment. Although Qianlong thought that the girl was very good, he was still not convinced, so he still wanted to make things difficult for the girl, he looked around and saw a stone ox by the river.
Such a stone cow is generally placed at the water's edge, because on the one hand, it means that the cow wants to go into the water, in fact, it can also play a role in measuring the water level, and the palace is generally built, and this buffalo was also built during the Kangxi period.
Qianlong pointed to the stone cow and said, let's take this as the topic. The girl may be afraid of delaying the auspicious time, or maybe she doesn't want to see Qianlong, so she even wants to do it, so she improvised a song: Kangxi ordered the cast iron ox to build an embankment and press it for dozens of autumns.
When Qianlong heard this, his heart was even more awe-inspiring, and there was a great reason not to give up, so he fulfilled his promise, retreated, and went to the sedan chair.
The girl sat in the sedan chair, and both of them were so proud that they couldn't help laughing. This laughter made Qianlong's victorious heart jump to the sky all of a sudden. But to say that this Qianlong is good, to say that he is a good emperor, to say that he is not good, just like the girl said, is a wild fate. So he made fun of the bride and wrote it on the stage"The eldest girl got on the sedan chair for the first time"。
The girl looked at the written words, and suddenly thought that she was going to get married today, and her face was flushed with shame, and her face instantly became redder than the wedding dress. Seeing this, Qianlong felt that he had finally pulled back a game, and finally found a balance in his heart, so he smiled and watched the girl's team go away before catching up with his own way, and felt that today's event was really interesting.
Later, people learned that this was the emperor's palanquin, and at the same time, they were surprised that a girl's ability to react to the emperor was really admirable. Later, in order to show respect for the woman, people found a way to rent a sedan chair to carry the bride, and this sedan chair is also very special, there are a large number of decorations, etc., known as the sedan chair, in order to marry the bride, gradually the married girl on the sedan chair has also become a marriage custom, and the words left by Qianlong have become the inscription that has been circulated.
People have a lot of stories about Qianlong, this is one of the more interesting ones, it seems that the heroine of the story is the bride, because the bride's wisdom and courage are more wonderful than Qianlong's condescending, maybe people want to borrow this story to express more meaning.
