Many people have a little fear in their hearts every time they walk into that old house, although we are now preaching and believing in science and rejecting feudal superstitions. However, because I heard a lot of ghost stories when I was a child, there will be some resistance to this kind of old house, and it is normal to be afraid in my heart.

The Forbidden City in our country is also very old for many years, and naturally there are many stories, ranging from poignant and touching love stories to bizarre and strange stories. Many people say that the bronze lion in the Forbidden City cannot be touched, why is this? After reading the truth, people will break into a cold sweat, so we will tell this story.
There is a broken rainbow bridge on the east side of one of the palaces in the Forbidden City, which is carved with several lions with different looks. One of them has always looked the most peculiar, one of its paws is scratching the back of the head, the other paw is in front of the crotch, the mouth is slightly open, cute and cute.
But such a cute lion has a bizarre story, which is recorded in the wild history. It is said that there was an emperor's eldest son Yiwei in the Qing Dynasty who particularly disliked reading, was mischievous, and always bumped into the master who taught. The master advised him to study seriously, otherwise he would not be able to govern the country well even if he sat on the throne in the future. When he heard this, he was so angry that he scolded the teacher and threatened to put him to death once he sat on the throne.

The master was helpless, felt that he could not teach this student, so he asked Daoguang for guilt, Daoguang knew what Yiwei had done, very angry, summoned Yiwei to come, directly kicked at Yiwei, did not want this foot but kicked in Yiwei's crotch, Yiwei was in unbearable pain, and died not long after.
Later, when Daoguang passed by the Broken Rainbow Bridge, he accidentally found this lion, with a claw on his crotch, with a painful expression, like the appearance of YiWei before his death. Therefore, every time he passed by here, when he saw the lion, he would think of Yi Wei, and his heart was also very painful and self-condemning, and later he ordered these bronze lions to be wrapped up and no one was allowed to touch them.
But there is a very strange thing, that is, the Broken Rainbow Bridge is a stone bridge of the Yuan Dynasty, but the dead prince is a person of the Great Qing, and many rumors say that this bronze lion foreshadows the death of Yi Wei, which makes people feel very strange. This bridge is in the central axis of the Yuan Dynasty period, and it corresponds to the decapitation of the Noon Gate, so it will be called the Broken Rainbow Bridge.
However, Xiaobian feels that everyone does not have to be afraid after reading this story, these are just coincidences, and there are more rumors of supernatural events, but no one has really seen ghosts. Don't let tourists touch these bronze lions, probably because they have a long history, so as to avoid them being corroded by the sweat on the hands of tourists. What do you think?
