When watching costume TV dramas, we will find a phenomenon that the emperor, as the supreme ruler at that time, would implement various orders for people to carry out in order to more conveniently manage the entire country. At this time, they need to order people to draw up the holy will, stamp it on it, and then pass it on to the hands of the relevant places or personnel by others.
The existence of the Holy Will shows that the emperor's orders cannot be easily disobeyed, and in addition, it also symbolizes the honor of imperial power. Then, since the Holy Will has such a great significance, some people can't help but wonder what should be done if someone is to make a fake Holy Will to do something harmful to the imperial court? You may not believe it when you say it.
In fact, the ancients did not dare to fake the Holy Will, and there were many reasons for this. The first point is the material of the Holy Will, which is a jacquard brocade specially provided by "Jiangning Weaving", which is expensive and small in quantity, and ordinary people cannot get their hands on it, which belongs to the royal use. There are many colors, such as three colors, five colors, and seven colors, and the texture pattern is extremely complex. Generally issued to officials below the level of five products, the background color is pure white. It shows that just the cloth is difficult to imitate.
The second point is the font, which is printed with the pattern of auspicious clouds on the silk cloth that makes the holy will. The first word of this holy will must be written on the first auspicious cloud on the right. In this way, even if the fabric is exquisite, the auspicious cloud and the first word are very difficult to create, and they cannot be exactly the same as the real holy will.
What is surprising is that in the real history, the emperor's holy will did not have such words as Fengtian carrying and the emperor's edict and admiration. These sentences appear in ancient dramas or in tv dramas that we watch. There are two kinds of true ancient sacred wills, the first of which begins with a name called Zhaoyue, which is dictated by the emperor, and someone else writes down what the Son of Heaven says next to him.
The second type of holy decree begins with the title of "Making", which was written by the Emperor himself. The process of drafting the Holy Will to writing it was done by scholars of the highest level of culture at that time. Therefore, if you can really find the ancient holy will, it is also a great thing, because the font of the holy will itself has great ornamental value.
It can be seen from this that ancient society has developed relatively advanced, and in order to prevent the rights and interests of the imperial power and nobles from being infringed, they will think of various ways to prevent the emergence of false holy wills. We can also understand that if there are really ancient people who fake the holy will, they will face serious punishment, because these counterfeiters have damaged the royal face, which is equivalent to losing half a life, and once they are discovered by the government, the only end that will meet them is to be cut off from the door and the family to be destroyed.
