100 years ago, in the old photos of the late Qing Dynasty, Figure 3 wears a splint on his head and shows a fierce face, and the appearance of Figure 5 is comparable to that of a star
Fig. 1: In the late Qing Dynasty, 4 executioners all coiled their braids and wore a bamboo basket on their heads to prevent their braids from slipping off during execution and being caught by the criminals. The two servants in the middle hold a noose, which is used to wrap around the neck of the prisoner, and the two next ones with wooden staffs are used to beat the prisoners.
Figure 2: The eunuch outside the Forbidden City, looking really subversive, looks like an alien. It is a world away from the eunuch in the TV series, and it feels really deceived. Think about it, there are a few gentle and jade-like men who go to eunuchs, not all of them are desperate to go to the pure body and become a father-in-law. Even Li Lianying, the great eunuch who was favored by Cixi, was full of numbness, and the average eunuch could go where he could go. What do you want to say or add to this matter?
Figure 3: In ancient China, there were many kinds of punishments, and they were very cruel, but none of them left photos, only the Qing Dynasty, which is closest to us, left many photos of punishments. The punishment of the Qing Dynasty was even worse than that of other dynasties, and there were five main legal punishments: flogging, staff, discipleship, exile, and death. The photo shows a fierce face wearing a splint on her head, and she doesn't even have her feet wrapped, which shows that this woman is also a legend!
Figure 4: The four daughters of the corrupt official Yi Xi in the late Qing Dynasty, known as the Four Grids, are beautiful and very good at things, quite favored by Cixi, and often enter the palace to chat and play with Cixi. In the photographs left by Cixi, she appears several times. Si Gege's husband died at a very young age, and the family declined from then on. Puyi commented on Yi Li in this way: (Yi Li) Was persuaded by Yuan Shikai's money to give way to the country, and the world of the Qing Dynasty for more than two hundred years was broken in the hands of Yi Li.
The appearance of Figure 5 is comparable to that of a star, which is the most handsome prince that Xiaobian has ever seen, and this temperament is much more domineering than the palace drama!
