About the etiquette week of the Book of Rites in Tang Dynasty? Faint righteousness stipulates six rituals, namely: accepting, asking names, Najib, accepting, inviting and welcoming. Since then, this ritual system has been widely followed.
The first is talent. If a man wants to marry a woman, he must find a matchmaker to propose to her, and then he will formally accept it from the woman's family after being accepted? A gift of choice? . That is to say, as the saying goes, parents' orders and matchmakers' words. As the name implies, the media refers to people with two surnames; This refers to people who consider a second surname. Matchmakers come out to mix, in fact, according to ancient rules, there must be a guy in their hands. One is an axe and the other is a scale. The axe originated from The Book of Songs? Hurricane? The poem in Wako: Wako Wako, the bandit axe can't be defeated. How did you marry that wife? No matchmaker, no marriage. Have a scale, pay attention to the right match. The ancients paid attention to many things, such as having a good wife and not marrying. For example, Jia Baoyu can't marry Qingwen, and Jia Lian can't help Second Sister You. Of course there are exceptions. For example, there was a tendency to choose a husband under the table in the Song Dynasty. As the saying goes, there is Yan Ruyu in the book. As long as you are a scholar, a rich woman will naturally come to your door. Similar to being admitted to civil servants now, there is no shortage of women.
After accepting the talent, the next step is to ask the name. The man sent a matchmaker to the woman's house to ask her name and birthday. After getting Geng Tie back, Buji folded his character. Good luck or bad luck. There are many flowers in Gengtie. For example, the zodiac is particular, for example, women are taboo to belong to the tiger sheep. Of course, the road is one foot high and the magic is ten feet high. There was no identification system. It is common for the woman to ask the warlock to change the Geng post in advance. For example, tigers can be divided into mountain tigers and pokeweed, and pokeweed can become cows or rabbits. So it is difficult to guess the age of women. There is a joke in the paper money of the Qing Dynasty, and a woman made a fake change to Geng Tie. . . . . . . When he was the satrap of Hangzhou, his wife was sealed for four grades. Ten years after my uncle's death, philosophers will call my mother seventy. They will run ahead of time and make people laugh: One day, it's not my real birthday. "It's terrible, to marry such a wife is really a great misfortune in life. Copy a song of the Chinese Zodiac and enjoy it: the mouse sees the sheep for a thousand years, not the white horse sees the green cow, the tiger sees the snake like a knife, the rabbit doesn't see the dragon for a long time, the chicken doesn't see the dog and the monkey doesn't see the pig.
The two sides have passed the eight characters and think it is ok, so let's move on to the next link: Najib. When the man asks his name, he will tell the woman the good omen of marriage and give gifts to show the etiquette of engagement. You should also give a goose ceremony. It is also a formal marriage certificate. There is a complete set of signatures and other formalities. Now is probably a fair procedure for registration and premarital property.
Then there is the fourth step, conscription. Also known as Nami. In layman's terms, it is to send a bride price. The cost codes are different. Silk was used in the early days, and then gold and silver were used. "Dream of Liang Lu" in the Southern Song Dynasty? Marriage records: one or two ounces of gold, five or two ounces of silver, six sides of colored satin, and forty miscellaneous silks. "There are five pieces of gold, four pieces of silver, four pieces of colored satin inside and outside, and thirty pieces of miscellaneous silk. The next family has three taels of silver, three colored satin and fifteen miscellaneous silks. Not to mention in modern times. By the way, there is a detail in an old movie in Chinese mainland. When the Eighth Route goes forward, most sisters will ask him for a shoe, which shows that this marriage is settled. In fact, this has something to do with ancient customs. In ancient times, the man would send things like silk thread, and the woman would give back shoes and socks, symbolizing harmony.
Tang Dynasty royal etiquette women's mattress skirt suit
Before the Tang Dynasty, women in China society were always bound by ethics, and the reform of women's clothing in the Tang Dynasty mainly benefited from the social fashion reform at that time. At that time, the most fashionable dress for women in the Tang Dynasty was: wearing a skirt with half an arm, wearing a Feng Touxie, and wearing a flower bun for the first time. Mattress skirt is a kind of clothing which is made up of a long skirt and a waist-length short coat, so it is also called mattress skirt.

Men's robes
The Tang Dynasty was an era of high political and economic development and prosperous culture and art in China feudal society, and it was also a milestone in the development of traditional costumes in China. In the Tang Dynasty, men generally wore round neck robes, usually with round neck and right lapel, with stitching edges at the collar, sleeves and skirt. The robes of civil servants are long and barefoot, while those of military officers are slightly shorter than the knees, and the sleeves are wide and narrow. Robes can be worn in a wide range, from emperors, officials to ordinary people, whether at home or at a ceremonial banquet.
Festive attention
For example, in April of the second year of Huichang, Zhongshu Province also played Wu Zong on the etiquette of the prime ministers and officials of the two provinces during the Yuan Dynasty, and got Wu Zong's approval. The original text is as follows: Chinese book play: On the Yuan Dynasty, the Imperial Palace contains Yuan Dynasty, and hundreds of officials are listed. Only the Prime Minister and officials of the two provinces stood in the bars before the fan was opened and stood in front of the command. During the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty, all peoples congratulated them. Only the prime minister and his officials introduced the samurai, but they did not bow to the supreme and abdicated. They didn't get it out of courtesy. I invited the imperial palace to enjoy the cool, and the prime minister and officials from the two provinces were in front of the incense table. As soon as the fan was turned on, they praised everything, and the officials of the two provinces bowed again and rose to the temple to stand. ? From it.
Pay attention to the address
The appellation of China changed greatly from Tang Dynasty to Ming and Qing Dynasties, but most of the ancient appellations we are familiar with today are Ming and Qing Dynasties. As for the appellation used in the Tang Dynasty, it is rarely mentioned in TV or novels. The titles of the Tang Dynasty are roughly as follows:
How many times have you called the emperor of the Tang Dynasty? Saint? As for those who are close to them or their attendants, what do they call them? Everyone? Interestingly, in the Tang Dynasty, women were called mother-in-law? Everyone? . As for the romantic son of heaven like Tang, anyone close to him will do whatever he wants. Saburo?

They are usually called? Gong Ming? . In addition, look at the mutual address in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty and the address of the people when they met the emperor or officials, and you will feel that the relationship between people at that time was far more equal than that in the Ming and Qing Dynasties:
In the Tang dynasty, my Lord? It is only a courtesy title for the father, and it is not used to address officials with higher status than themselves. Moreover, when lower-level officials meet higher-level officials or people meet officials, they are not as servile as later generations.

And that woman claims to be? Son? As usual.
The divorce agreements in the Tang Dynasty were all between husband and wife, and they became attached to each other in previous lives, so they are only suitable for couples in this life. Husband and wife are opposite, just like Yuanyang, sitting with Qi Fei knees and a good face; The beauty of the two virtues is extremely heavy, and the two bodies are one.
Three years of attachment, husband and wife harmony; If you have grievances for three years, you will come to the gap.
If you don't get along, you think it's a past life. The enemy begets resentment, so it is relative. The wife said a few words, and the husband turned against him. Just like cats and mice hate each other, just like wolves and sheep.
It's hard to be half-hearted, and I will meet all my relatives soon. In order to find a book, I will pay my debts.
I hope that after the separation of my wife and daughter, I will comb my cicada's sideburns again, sweep my eyebrows beautifully, make an elegant gesture, hire the head of a senior official and make a beautiful appearance in the court.
Resolve grievances and knots, but don't hate each other; One is two widths, and each has its own fun.
