In normal times, Galeries Lafayette is also extremely enjoyable. The toilet paper used by Empress Dowager Cixi is a scroll-shaped paper with the word birthday on both sides, which has been ironed. When washing feet and taking a bath, the old lady is also very particular about it. She will wash with chrysanthemum in summer and papaya soup in winter, which can play a health care role. After taking a bath, the old lady needs more than forty towels, some of which are handicrafts.
There is nothing wrong with a woman who likes to dress herself up. However, when I arrived at Empress Dowager Cixi, the appearance of a woman who pleased herself changed. How many clothes does Empress Dowager Cixi have? To go to Fengtian, you need a train carriage to transport it. She has thousands of clothes. Empress Dowager Cixi also has a pair of embroidered shoes, surrounded by pearls.
Besides, Empress Dowager Cixi also created a hairstyle called "Big Wings", and many harem queens and folk women also developed the style of "Big Wings" in order to imitate this hairstyle of Empress Dowager Cixi. The ornaments on Cixi's hairstyle are large jewelry headdresses, in addition to other treasures such as Cuichai, Fengchai, gold flat square, pearl headband and so on.
Empress Dowager Cixi likes taking pictures very much. In order to take pictures, she set up a shed, set up a set screen and arranged luxurious scenes in the Summer Palace to improve the shooting effect!
Empress Dowager Cixi is also good at eating. Every time Empress Dowager Cixi prepares a meal, three or four tables will be set together. There are all kinds of hot and cold dishes, barbecues and snacks. If she suddenly wants to eat, she will bring it up at any time. In various festivals, Empress Dowager Cixi also has special food.
Empress Dowager Cixi especially likes scented tea. The water used for making tea is the spring water of Yuquan Mountain that day, and tea leaves are just picked flowers. The teacup is made of white jade and the saucer is made of pure gold.
The means of transportation used by Empress Dowager Cixi is also relatively advanced, and a small track is specially set up for Empress Dowager Cixi in the Forbidden City.
The old lady was so extravagant before her death, especially after her death. After the death of Cixi, she wore a crested phoenix, three pearls around her neck, a luminous pearl in her mouth and a golden coat. The pearl in her crown is as big as an egg, and a bead around her neck is a ruby, which is just the tip of the iceberg. There are countless kinds of jadeite, precious stones, corals, pearls, golden buddhas and brocade in the coffin.
Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that Cixi is a "royal jewel maniac" and a "wizard" who wronged the country and the people. It was because of her arrogance and extravagance that the Qing Dynasty went from bad to worse and was unrecognizable by the great powers. Therefore, some people say that the luxury of Cixi is at the expense of the demise of the Qing Dynasty, which is very reasonable.
