How did the Chinese emperor experience the night of the room?

Ancient and feudal times, the emperor was symbolic of authority, power, so what was the difference between the emperor's chamber and the common man?

When a beauty is brought into the emperor's harem to become a suspect, the rituals compared to the ritual of marriage are similar. One must also comply with the 6 rituals recorded in the Signing Ceremony , ie: loading, questioning, loading sand, loading, occasionally, welcome.

The difference in the emperor's marriage is the more grandiose and more refined ritual. The person chosen as the queen can also receive the emperor's people to come to the ceremony, but the king is absolutely unfriendly to go to the temple and let the family members of the queen take the bride.

When the queen and the emperor get married, they must also take action, but unlike the folk room, it is not the same. The king and queen of the room were not in the palace, nor were there any fixed places. Where to celebrate the ceremony of the wedding ceremony, hold the room night there.

The difference in the emperor's marriage is the more grandiose and more refined ritual.

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the wedding was usually held at Khon Ninh palace. In Chinese culture, Khon Ninh's supply is the third of the three arcs of the harem. In the Ming Dynasty, Khon Ninh palace was the place where the queen lived. By the time of the Qing dynasty, people took two eastern pavilions of this palace in place of the emperor's chamber when they were married, and the fifth of the west changed into the god of the Tathagata religion.

During the Qing Dynasty, the ritual of rapturing (picking up the bride) during the emperor's marriage was very grand and remarkable. The new queen was moved from the gate of Dai Thanh to the gate of Thien An and Nguu Mon straight into the harem. As for the usual frequency bands, only going to Than Vu gate is the back door of the Forbidden City.

When the queen and the king moved the room in comparison with ordinary people, the room was even more magnificent. However, it is indispensable to practice the song of the Red River and the phrase of blessing. Across the wedding room is also full of red to create a happy atmosphere. In front of the bed, there will be a "suicide bullying" (the one that embodies the image of 100 children to imply that the king will give birth to many nobles - a comment of the translator).

On the bed will place a "mortal being" ie a bed linen or blanket with embroidered pictures of 100 children. The bedside is hung with a brocade curtain embroidered with a dragon phoenix song. It seems that the king's family also wishes many children to be happy.

Time Custom - Duong, the place where the room in the grand palace must not only have to be carpeted, but also must display many obstacles, dragon phoenix on all four sides of the bed. It can be seen at that time that the chamber of the royal chamber was very discreet.

The marriage of the king and queen is of course no boisterous but the ceremony is indispensable. After the king and queen entered the wedding room, what must be done first? In the human world, the new bride and groom who have entered the wedding room can rush to bed. The queen and the king are not like that. All rituals must be done before you can enjoy the spring night.
