Chapter 1051 Engagement (2)

At six o'clock in the morning on October 14, 10, Zhao Chaogang was wearing a new suit. Zhao Chaogang was wearing a Yanfu now, with five dragons embroidered on it. This was the protective robe Zhao Chaogang made for himself. .
Those dragons are actually the formations on Zhao Chaogang's protective robe. Zhao Chaogang arranged the formations on this protective robe to look like dragons just for the sake of looking good.

It is precisely because these dragons are composed of array stripes that they are very vivid, as if they are alive. Coupled with Zhao Chaogang's dusty temperament, no matter how you look at it, they have a noble feeling.

Of course, if Zhao Chaogang wears this kind of clothing and travels to the ancient society, I believe he will become a wanted criminal before Zhao Chaogang reacts. In ancient society, only the emperor can wear a costume embroidered with dragons. However, In modern times, these things don’t matter, even some children’s diapers have dragon patterns on them, not to mention Zhao Chaogang took them out and wore them.

Not only did Zhao Chaogang wear Yanfu embroidered with dragons for this engagement ceremony, even Li Liping and Liu Jingjing were actually wearing the phoenix coronets worn by queens in ancient times.

Fengguanxiapei refers to the attire worn by rich girls when they got married in the old days to show their honor.It also refers to the attire of ancient aristocratic women and wives appointed by the imperial court.

Fengguan is named after it is decorated with phoenix.The phoenix is ​​the king of all birds, so only queens or princesses are worthy of it. Usually, it is only worn in Longyu City Ceremonies, such as weddings, and ordinary civilians cannot wear it.

Pie, an ancient dress draped over the shoulders, has a large collar and double breasted is a major feature of it, so it is also called double breasted robe.In addition, it has slits on the left and right crotch and long sleeves. It is a luxurious and unrestrained casual clothing.In Chinese opera, it has always been the common clothes of emperors, generals, officials, and gentry. There are men’s and women’s caps, and the colors are divided into red, blue, yellow, crimson, purple, pink, and azure. Among them, red is for weddings or festive occasions. Represents color.

In the Tang Dynasty, Bai Juyi chanted in "Neon Clothes, Feather Clothes and Wei Zhi": "Hongshang Xia Pei walks and shakes the crown, and there are many pearls and pearls."

Every time I read this, I think of those women who came out of the pavilion wearing phoenix crowns and Xiapei in ancient times. I am very envious of them. The pleated skirt, red embroidered shoes, and a touch of richness and festiveness are like the happiness overflowing in the heart.I think that the phoenix crown and Xiapei were originally the clothes of concubines, and worshiping heaven and earth is the gift of suburban heaven for emperors. Chinese folk women are also kings in their lives.

Ancient aristocratic women often wore phoenixes as crown decorations.In the Ming Dynasty, the crown of the queen's dress is decorated with nine dragons and four phoenixes.Four phoenix crowns were unearthed from the Dingling Mausoleum of Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty, with different numbers of dragons and phoenixes.One of the tops has six dragons and three phoenixes. The dragons are at both ends of the top, with long strings of beads in their mouths, which seems to have the meaning of playing with the phoenix.There are three phoenixes with wings spread on the front.

There are three temples on the left and right at the bottom of the crown, which look like colorful phoenix tails when unfolded.The phoenix crowns of the imperial concubine, princess, and crown princess are nine phoenixes and four phoenixes.Hui is a colorful pheasant.The phoenix crowns of the first-rank to seventh-rank wives have no phoenix, but are embroidered with different numbers of pheasants.

Xiapei is also called "Xia Phi" and "Phi Silk", because it is as gorgeous as a rainbow, so it is named.The shawl is wrapped around the shoulders with a piece of silk and handed over the chest. "Story of Lin Guangji?"Clothing" contains: "Jin Yongjiazhong made crimson halo capes, so that the princesses and concubines would wear them." The Song Dynasty set it as the crown clothing for women, and it was not allowed to wear it unless it was a gift.Since the Ming Dynasty, it has been the clothing of the rank of women. From the first rank of the princes to the ninth rank, the women of the ninth rank all wear Xiapei with different embroidery patterns.Zizi appeared in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and got its name in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

It was included in the ranks of dresses in the Song Dynasty.In the Ming Dynasty, it developed into Xiapei——because its shape is as beautiful as a rainbow, it is named "Xiapei".It was more common to take this style in the Ming Dynasty. Its shape is like a long colorful hanging belt. Each Xiapei is three inches two inches wide and five feet seven inches long. When wearing it, it is wrapped around the neck and hung on the chest. pendant.

Fengguan: a ritual crown worn by noble women in ancient times.In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the colorful crowns used by ordinary women were also called phoenix crowns, and they were mostly used in weddings.According to the "Da Ming Hui Dian" records: regular clothes, phoenix crown: double phoenix and dragon crown, made of soap.Attached to Cuibo Mountain.

The top is decorated with a golden dragon, and Yi is decorated with two pearls and emerald phoenixes, all of which hold beads in their mouths.Front and back pearl peony flowers, pistil heads, emerald leaves, bead emerald Rang flower temples, emerald emerald clouds, etc.Three temples (a total of six left and right).There are two golden dragons, each holding beads and knots.

It can be worn by empresses of the Ming Dynasty to nine-rank civil official wives, and the colors, patterns, decorations and materials vary according to their status.Common women in the Ming Dynasty could also wear Fengguanxiapei when they got married.

Xiapei: Xiapei is the attire of court wives, ordinary women can only wear it when they get married-according to Chinese etiquette, big gifts can win, that is, sacrificial ceremonies, weddings and other occasions can be leapfrogged, not considered arrogance.There are regulations on the color and pattern decoration of the Xiapei for the married woman.Xia Pei is divided into two types, one is a kind of shawl clothing worn by ancient women.After the Song Dynasty, it was designated as life service, which varied with the grade.The Ming Dynasty made detailed regulations on Xiapei, ranging from the first grade to the ninth grade.The second is a kind of precious clothing of Taoism.

The difference in the grade of Xiapei is mainly reflected in the ornamentation, as follows:

The first and second ranks are embroidered with gold embroidered Yunxia Zhai patterns (Zhai: that is, long-tailed pheasant); the third and fourth ranks are gold embroidered clouds and peacock patterns, the fifth ranks are embroidered with clouds and mandarin duck patterns; the sixth and seventh ranks are embroidered with clouds and magpie patterns; The eighth and ninth ranks are embroidered with school patterns.

According to the "Daming Huidian" records: regular clothes, big shirt and Xiapei: shirt-yellow, with two collars one foot straight, with three buttons in between.The back body is longer than the front body, folded when walking, and two buttons are attached at the end, the buttons are under the cover button, and the buttons are released when worshiping.Xiapei—two pieces side by side, stitched at the tip, hanging in front of the body, hanging with a pendant, and the flat end is stored in the triangular pocket on the back of the shirt.

It was precisely to allow Li Liping and Liu Jingjing to have a perfect engagement ceremony, so Zhao Chaogang made Li Liping and Liu Jingjing wear the phoenix coronets that only queens could wear in ancient times. Status is much more valuable than the queens in ancient times, but now it can only be done so easily.

The phoenix coronets worn by Li Liping and Liu Jingjing were not the phoenix coronets of the Qing Dynasty, but the phoenix coronets of the Tang Dynasty. Only the phoenix coronets of the Tang Dynasty, which were extremely powerful, could be worn by Li Liping and Liu Jingjing. As for other periods, especially It is the Fengguanxiapei from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Zhao Chaogang can only hehe, and to be honest, among the Fengguanxiapei from different dynasties, the Fengguanxiapei from the Tang Dynasty is really the most beautiful.

Last night, Pingping and Jingjing had already arrived at Zhao Chaogang's godmother's house, so this time, the godmother's house will be regarded as Li Liping and Liu Jingjing's mother's house. After all, if it is really like an engagement in ancient times, go Li Liping, Liu Jingjing picked up Li Liping at Liu Jingjing's house, and Liu Jingjing's words were very unrealistic.

Li Liping and Liu Jingjing's home is far away in Anxi City, Zhao Chaogang's home is in Zhaojia Village, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, thousands of miles away from each other, so, according to local conditions, let the godmother's home be Pingping and Jingjing's home.

At 05:30 in the morning, Zhao Chaogang had already visited the grave of his grandfather and *** with his parents and uncle. Zhao Chaogang knelt in front of the grave of his grandfather *** and told his grandparents that he After finishing the engagement, Zhao Chaogang set off firecrackers for a while in front of his grandpa's grave before going home.

After paying homage to his grandparents, Zhao Chaogang's uncles began to check the betrothal gifts. These betrothal gifts are all in accordance with the customs of Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. In Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, there are a total of 9 types of civil betrothal gifts.
