The coffin of the ancient emperor needed to be placed for several months before it could be buried. Aren't they worried that the body will rot?

As we all know, people need to be buried immediately after death, because if they are not buried in time, the body will rot, which is very unfavorable to the deceased. However, in the history of China, after the death of some emperors, their coffins needed to be placed for several months before they could be buried. Aren't they worried that their bodies will rot?

Let me explain the doorway to you.

After the death of the ancient emperor, people in the palace put pearls in the emperor's mouth and placed many herbs beside him. These herbs can effectively delay the time when the corpse stinks and rots, and many chemicals can be put into the emperor's coffin, such as layers of plant ash and charcoal, which can effectively prevent the air from reacting with the emperor's remains, thus effectively preventing the possibility of the emperor's remains rotting. And sometimes, in order to prevent the emperor's body from rotting, people in the palace will put a lot of ice cubes in the coffin. With these ice cubes, the emperor's body will not rot so easily.

In addition to the above viewpoints, it was also a feudal superstition in ancient times. They think that a treasure trove of geomantic omen is a crucial factor, so there are many doorways for placing coffins before the emperor is buried. They believe that as long as the placement of the emperor's coffin conforms to Feng Shui, it can not only ensure that the body will not rot for a long time, but also ensure that the country will be handed down from generation to generation.

In a word, the ancient emperors would never worry that their coffins would rot because they were not buried for a long time, because they would always find ways to prevent such tragedies.
