The most typical feature of Chinese history is:Far-reaching and long-lastingAs the only one of the four ancient civilizations in the world.
China is quite profound in terms of both its historical development and historical accumulation, especially the complete history of more than 5,000 years, which is the object of our study.
Unlike the development of other ancient countries, most countries will be invaded or even colonized by other capitalist countries in the process of development, such as India, Egypt and Babylon, etc., because of this situation, the culture and history of these countries will have serious faults, and the original ancient culture will even disappear over time.
Ancient Babylon will be even more miserable, even its own country is gone, so if you want to understand the complete development history of a country from ancient times to the present, you can only start with China, and for China, which has a 5,000-year-old culture, the most valuable research is the feudal society that has lasted for more than 2,000 years, because the primitive society and slave society in the early years are considered to be in their infancy.
Only the feudal society is the master of ancient times, and in China's feudal society, the most important role at the top is the "emperor", as the highest power holder of the country, he is the core of the entire feudal monarch society, and plays an important role in coordinating all parties in the governance of the country.
As the so-called".A kingdom shall not be without a king for a day"No matter how many times there has been a change of dynasty, even if there are multiple regimes co-existing or in a state of separation, the emperor is an indispensable role, so this entire feudal society from the beginning to the end, there are countless emperors, and there is a big gap between these emperors in their actions, abilities, personalities and even hobbies.
Some emperors even had some incomprehensible little hobbiesTang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei love to "hold the lance", and they have to come at least once a day, what does it mean to hold the bag.
In fact, these small hobbies are like what we now call personality, people always have some of their own unique hobbies, although the emperor is said to be the ninety-five, but also a person, it is inevitable that there are some hobbies, but the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, so many emperors and monarchs in Chinese history, there are always some particularly strange and incomprehensible hobbies.
In fact, there was such an emperor during the Warring States period, and we still knew this king through fables when we were children, that isThe king of Chu has a thin waistAt that time, the time was almost the Warring States period, and the monarch of Chu at that time wasKing Chu LingThis person, like most of our modern women, likes to be thin, especially the waist, just like the A4 waist that we like now.
But at that time, King Chu Ling's pursuit was more outrageous, at that time I didn't know what the concept of A4 waist was, so I tried to be as fine as possible, and the courtiers at that time also knew what it was to do what he liked, since the emperor liked it, then he tried his best to meet the emperor's hobbies, so he started a kind of unscrupulous pathology for slimming.
In order to make their waists look thinner, those ministers only ate one meal a day, in order not to be hungry, they took a deep breath every day, and then tightened their belts.
What's even more terrifying is that this strange habit has been maintained for a year, which has directly caused many people to lose their yellow faces and even starve to death, and it can be said that the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty have been harmed by this strange hobby.
Of course, this hobby is still relatively normal, there was an emperor with a lot of habits in the Southern Dynasty, and all kinds of peculiar hobbies even made future generations doubt his mental condition for a while, this person was the sixth emperor of the Qi State of the Southern Dynasty,Xiao Baojuan,This person's various strange hobbies may be unacceptable to this day.
First of all, I like it very much".Catch mice"This first unique hobby can almost kill most people at the moment, after all, this kind of thing is the life of cats now, but this emperor has to beThe more than the other, It's not his job, he just has to do it, not only likes to catch it himself, but even likes to catch mice with many people.
He once gave an order to gather a group of ministers at dusk, not sleep at night, and even catch mice all night, it is estimated that the ministers at that time were "want to laugh but dare not laugh", and some people even once wondered if the emperor was the reincarnation of someone's flower cat, of course, this is just his first habit. In addition, the second fetish of this emperor is also very "avant-garde".
In that predominantly agricultural society, the emperor liked to do business very much, but instead of going out to do business, he played the game of buying and selling things with the eunuchs and palace ladies in the palace, which can be said to be the earliest "role-playing" behavior in history.
It's just that it's very advanced, in addition to the characters being played by others, the beef and mutton and even the prop boards used for sale are all real, and they are thrown away directly after use, which can be said to be very extravagant. In addition to these, the emperor also had a hobby that seemed particularly heavy at the time, and that was "foot fetish".
This emperor likes the beautiful feet of the concubines very much, and even when choosing concubines, he doesn't look at the looks, as long as the feet are good-looking, he will be accepted as a concubine, this buddy's obsession with feet has reached a very terrifying point, and he can even completely let go of his figure and status, and even dignity.
At that time, there was a concubine named Pan in the palace, not only good-looking, but also had a pair of beautiful feet, the emperor was very obsessed with her, and even to the extent that she could be manipulated and enslaved, in fact, when it came to small hobbies, there was a very famous emperor, that isTang Xuanzong Li Longji.
In fact, when it comes to Tang Xuanzong's hobbies, it is far less exaggerated than others, in fact, his hobbies, that isYang YuhuanIt's just one person, as it is calledThere are 3,000 beauties in the harem, and 3,000 are pampered in oneThroughout the history of China, in addition to Wu Zetian, who became the emperor, there is only Yang Yuhuan, one of the four beauties, who can be favored like this.
And Tang Xuanzong's love for Yang Yuhuan has reached a very terrifying point, first of all, Hua ** invited the great poet Li Bai to the imperial court, specially composed poems for Yang Guifei, and even wrote songs, and then until Li Bai, who had a super high salary, left bored, and at this time Tang Xuanzong was also obsessed with Yang Yuhuan.
Not only built a palace for her, but even stayed here overnight to enjoy her, you know, the ancient emperor almost did not spend the night in the palace of the concubine, Tang Xuanzong for Yang Guifei, can be said to have set a precedent, of course, although the title of this concubine is under the queen, but at that time almost everyone knew that the position of this concubine had long been similar to the emperor.
Of course, this is only a shallow performance, Tang Xuanzong's favor for Yang Yuhuan has actually reached the level of loving the house and Wu, as the saying goesOne person got the chicken dog**, This sentence is no longer suitable for Yang Yuhuan, since Yang Yuhuan got Tang Xuanzong's favor, almost everyone in the family has been stained.
Her sisters have been rewarded to varying degrees, and her father has achieved the position of prime minister, not only that, but even her younger brother can enter the court as an official, you must know that Yang Yuhuan's younger brother is not only an unemployed vagrant, but even a ruffian hooligan who wanders all day long, this kind of person can enter the court as an official by virtue of Yang Yuhuan's relationship.
Of course, Tang Xuanzong also rarely achieved "If you like a person, you like everything about her" We all know that the Tang Dynasty was fat for beauty, and Yang Yuhuan belongs to the kind of plump beauty who is slightly obese, and people who are slightly fatter, we all know that they are easy to snore after falling asleep, and Yang Yuhuan is like this.
But to what extent does Tang Xuanzong love him, he is also very obsessed with Yang Yuhuan's snoring, and even secretly gets up at night without sleeping to listen to Yang Yuhuan's snoring, and finally has developed to the point where he has formed a dependence on Yang Yuhuan's snoring, and he can't sleep without snoring.
In addition, Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei also have an activity that must be carried out every day, that isGrip the soil,In fact, most people don't know much about this activity, in fact, it is also from the wisdom of the ancients, and it was once a very favorite activity among literati.
So in their spare time, they need to carry out a series of activities to pass the time, literati like to drink and compose poems, pairs, but for those who are not very good at writing, they have invented some other cultural and recreational activities, here the grip lance, in fact, is a kind of chess, but the grip is very different from the Go or backgammon we usually play.
In fact, this kind of gameplay is a bit like the flying chess we play now, which is to achieve a certain effect by rolling the dice to bring their own pieces on the board, except that the flying chess is to walk the chess pieces back to the end, and the lance is to move all the chess pieces out of the board.
Each person gets the points by rolling the dice to decide to move the twelve pieces they have out of the board, due to the different positions, the number of moves required to complete the opponent is also different, so how to move, which piece to move is a certain consideration, in addition to a certain element of luck.
So the difficulty is still relatively large, and then because of Tang Xuanzong's love, the game of gripping became an exclusive game for princes and nobles later, and even those who are not very good at holding the lance will be ridiculed by others, and the same is true between husband and wife.
So at that time, many people were learning and were very good at holding the pen This game, it itself has become quite hot, and has been popular until the Qing Dynasty, but it is a pity, this popular game, I don't know for what reason disappeared in the long river of history, this kind of game that was brought by Tang Xuanzong and Yang Yuhuan finally disappeared.
