First of all, the ancients paid great attention to Feng Shui. They think that the bedroom is a place to gather gas, because little people can gather gas. And the emperor has a dragon spirit, so the room can't be big. The rest of the palace is big because the emperor is accompanied by all kinds of people when he goes out, but the bedroom is different. It's just a place for the emperor to rest alone. In addition, in ancient times, there was no heating. In winter, the room is small and warm. If it is too big, it will be very cold.
When I visited the Forbidden City before, I found that the emperor's bedroom was really small. Visually, if it is made into the present children's room, it may be more compact. There can only be a wooden bed and a table 1.5 meters long. You know, at that time, the bedroom in small Shenyang was at least tens of square meters, and the furniture was all fine gold nanmu. Now a chair alone costs millions. Maybe that's why I can show that I am particularly rich. And the emperor doesn't need to do this.
The emperor's bed is actually no bigger than the people's bed. Put down two curtains when you sleep, and the bed will be smaller. Another point is to conserve physical strength. Ancient emperors paid attention to health preservation. For health and longevity, they will live in a small space. Now that I think about it, the emperor's bedroom is only this big. What reason do we have for luxury? As a young man working hard in a big city, isn't it much more comfortable to see the emperor's bedroom so small?
