If you travel back in time, you can survive to the first few episodes......
Countless netizens said: I can't survive a single episode, it is estimated that I will burp as soon as I appear, although many people who have traveled to ancient times in modern TV series rely on advanced production technology and concepts to live a prosperous life, but the premise is that you have to know it first.
In "Celebrating More Than Years", Fan Xian's mother, who has never appeared, has traveled through the past from modern times and has never appeared, but she has blessed Fan Xian's life with her connections.
It is said that inside the box at the bottom of the box is a modern AK, and the factory that opened uses advanced textile technology and smelts salt grains has become a generation of celebrities.
Not to mention traveling to ancient times to do this, even in modern times, if you follow the steps to do it over and over again, it is also amazing to be able to do it.
There is still a big difference between ancient and modern times.
The harem concubines in film and television dramas, all dressed brightly, and there are palace maids and eunuchs waiting for them before and after.
But there are still many people who are reluctant to enter the palace, why is this?
The content of this article is based on official and reliable sources, which are summarized at the end of this article.
The real life of an ancient concubine
If it weren't for the death of the Qing Dynasty, how could it be my turn to visit the Forbidden City and the Summer Palace in Beijing, no wonder the emperor would have a dragon chair wherever he went.
There are many places in the Forbidden City that are not open to the public, which increases the mystery of the life of the harem women, leaving the world with space for imagination and exploration, because it is the real Forbidden City that is locked.
People are now using technology to restore photos of ancient times, and it can be seen that they are not as different from those taken in modern film and television dramas.
The life of the harem concubine is also a typical interpretation of the truth of "people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong", unless the mother's family is very strong, or you are very smart and the emperor is the only favorite, otherwise it is difficult for people to catch this splashing wealth.
In "The Legend of Ruyi", the scum dragon can be described as a childhood sweetheart to Ruyi, and the strength of her mother's family is also strong, but when she is pregnant, she still eats spicy food according to the folk rumors of "sour and spicy girls", just to hide people's eyes.
Only in the dead of night, Rong Pei would secretly bring a plate of sour apricots, and said distressedly: As a concubine, you have to be careful when you are pregnant with a dragon.
At that time, mothers were expensive by their sons, and if anyone gave birth to a prince, they would be promoted, not to mention the improvement of living conditions, and even their status in the harem was much more stable.
Wei Yanwan, who was born as a palace maid, rose to the position of the imperial concubine step by step with her many heirs, and finally died badly because of bad things.
As the saying goes: three women in one play, this harem has three thousand beauties, I dare not imagine how lively it is, this is the life of a harem woman.
The lives in film and television dramas are all beautified, and their real lives are not so nourishing at all.
Ancient women paid attention to three from four virtues, after entering the palace, there will be more rules and etiquette waiting for them, if they do something wrong, not only will there be punishment, but also the family will be affected in serious cases.
In "The Legend of Zhen Huan", the beautiful and stupid melon Xiaoliuqi nobleman not only died a tragic death because he reported that Zhen Huan had an affair with King Guojun, but also affected his own family.
Now combing the storyline in the play, in fact, King Guojun is the same as the current "central air conditioning", romantic, who to tease whom, the sense of boundary between people is still very important.
After Shiro Da Tangerine took a night walk and met Zhen Huan who was playing in the garden, because of the cumbersome rules in the palace, women can't have private meetings with foreign men, let alone the emperor's women.
For the sake of Zhen Huan's reputation, Shiro held back his curiosity and didn't find out, after all, he was the male owner of this palace, and all the women revolved around him, and it didn't hurt to take a look, but he didn't, this is still quite gentlemanly.
King Guojun is different, Zhen Huan was playing in the water by the river, and he saw that he was not wearing shoes, and he just stepped forward to praise him for his jade feet, Zhen Huan was eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.
In ancient times, "men and women do not kiss", if anyone sees a woman's feet, he wants to marry her, this point has completely disappeared in modern times, and the specific reason will not be detailed.
In "The Legend of Zhen Huan", the most arrogant and domineering is Concubine Hua, and some netizens have calculated that her monthly expenses are about 1.8 million, which is mainly due to the financial support of the family.
The concubines in the harem are actually similar to office workers, and they also receive living expenses (wages) on time every month, and there will be living supplies, that is, chickens, ducks, fish and eggs, etc., a room of more than ten or twenty people, only nine catties of meat a day, and one person can eat a small bite.
There are also requirements for the dress of the concubines, and the strict hierarchy can be seen from the wearing of Longhua.
Only the queen's Longhua can rust patterns at will, and the concubine and the like can also decorate flowers, but cannot use peonies, etc., and the concubine can also be decorated with flowers, but the newcomer who has just entered the palace is a simple Longhua.
In addition to the different decorations, the fabric will also be different, this is mainly to facilitate the emperor to distinguish the concubines, under normal circumstances, the concubines will not easily change the Longhua style, because once the emperor is replaced, he may not know you.
What were the ancient concubines doing when they were bored
The harem concubines in the TV series can't see any boredom, because they are either thinking about how to please the emperor and compete for favor, or they are planning how to frame others.
In ancient times, women paid attention to "no talent is virtue", but those who could enter the palace were all women from big families, not to mention reading poetry and books, they would definitely be able to read and write.
In "The Legend of Zhen Huan", Sister Mei relied on her dignified and graceful scholarly temperament to successfully restore her favor with a bracelet, which is the wisdom of a reader.
The concubines of the harem will also often train in the content of poetry and books, not to say that you have to do anything in the court, you have to understand what the emperor talks to you.
Banquets will often be held in the palace, if you want to be outstanding, you have to be talented, Zhen Huan performed "Amazing Dance" at a banquet, which is the masterpiece of the big fat orange Queen Bai Yueguang Chunyuan.
This "Amazing Dance" can also be seen that the palace gate is as deep as the sea, this banquet is all Huang relatives and nobles, if Zhen Huan does not dance well, it will make the emperor lose face and fall into the handle, at this time, Zhen Huan is favored, people are jealous of her, after the dance, Cao Guiren also compared her with Queen Chunyuan, because he wanted Zhen Huan's life.
Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, proficient in everything, when the show girl first entered the palace, she will be selected layer by layer, talent is also an important level, after entering the palace, she will continue to practice Xi, and will also learn to Xi other talents and musical instruments and the like, as a bargaining chip for favor.
In ancient times, women were preferably female workers, and there was a saying that they couldn't marry if they couldn't be female workers.
When the concubines had nothing to do in the palace, they contacted the female workers in the house, in addition to eating and drinking for themselves, they also made clothes for the emperor to express themselves and win the emperor's attention.
The emperor is also an appearance association, and those who are good-looking must have more opportunities to be favored, and the concubines will work their image management every day in order to maintain their figure and maintain their beauty.
After learning about the real life of the ancient concubines, will you still envy them?
