In the wedding, men kneel and women do not kneel, highlighting the status of women

In "The Wind Rises in Luoyang", in a wedding between Baili Hongyi (Wang Yibo) and Liu Shi (Song Yi), only Baili Hongyi's man kneels during the worship session, while the woman does not kneel.

Why? Li Jie told the top news reporter that during the Wuzhou period when Wu Zetian was in power in the Tang Dynasty, because it was "the world of motherly ceremonies", the status of women was very high, and in terms of behavior etiquette, women did not have to kneel and worship.

"At that time, women could be officials or bodyguards, and their status was very high, and when they got married, men knelt and women did not kneel." Li Jie said that there is also a reason because women in the Tang Dynasty have larger hair buns and are inconvenient to bend down and bow their heads. In addition, there is also a detail in the TV series that women do not have to cover their heads when they get married, but cover their faces with a fan.

"It's called a slap in the face." Li Jie said that during the wedding, the groom should recite but fan poems, "through the content of the poem to exaggerate the bride's happiness, the bride will remove the fan, so that the guests can see their faces." ”

In the Tang Dynasty, there was a difference between men and women

In addition to the etiquette at weddings, the daily etiquette of the Tang Dynasty is also worth mentioning. The "fork hand ceremony" often used by friends when meeting in "The Wind Rises in Luoyang" is the most common kind of etiquette, and there is a cloud in the poem of Liu Zongyuan in the Tang Dynasty: "Entering the county waist is constantly folded, and everyone forks every hand."

"When performing the cross-handed salute, cross your hands in front of your chest, tilt your right thumb upwards, and wrap your left hand around your right thumb." Li Jie said that the fork hand ceremony is generally a kind of etiquette performed by those with low status to those with high status to show respect.

When paying homage to the elders, the forked hand salute is obviously not enough, in this case, it is necessary to perform the heavenly salute. "Hands clasped like drummers with the heart inward, hands held high to the forehead, bent 90 degrees." Zhang Xiaofu said that it should be noted that men should press their left hands against their right hands when performing rituals, and women should do the opposite.

Li Jie told the top news reporter that when friends in the Tang Dynasty met each other, women could also perform the Blessings Ceremony. "Fold your hands on your chest, bow your head slightly, move your hands slightly, bend your knees slightly."

During the Spring Festival of the Tang Dynasty, women often used the "su baili", "su baili is a kneeling posture and a standing posture, the hands need to hold the fist and the hand, the body and head are bowed forward." Li Jie said.

Hanfu lovers: from being misunderstood to being praised

"We like Hanfu not only like its appearance, but also like the traditional Chinese culture behind it." Li Jie said that she began to study "Hanfu culture" in 2008 and has witnessed the revival of China's excellent traditional culture represented by Hanfu for more than a decade.

"At first, I went to Suzhou in Hanfu to play, and I was called a goblin. This will not be the case now, everyone's understanding of Hanfu is getting deeper and deeper, and more and more attention is paid to traditional culture. ”

Zhang Jiahao, who paid attention to the Hanfu field slightly later than Li Jie, was because in an examination in junior high school, he saw that China's Dragon Boat Festival was applied for by other countries, and he became interested in China's traditional culture. ”

But 11 years ago, when he first wore a short dozen (Hanfu type) on the street, he was thought by passers-by to come out of the bathing center. "Short play is a half-sleeved Hanfu, which looks similar in form to a bathrobe, but Hanfu is a cross-collar right (right collar pressed left collar), which is obviously different from bathrobes."

In recent years, with the popularity of film and television dramas such as "Wind Rises in Luoyang" and "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an", the charm of Hanfu has been reproduced, and there are more and more Hanfu fans, "We are now wearing Hanfu walking on the street, there is no longer a situation of being misunderstood by others, everyone will feel very beautiful." Li Jie said.
