Historically, the Tang Dynasty adopted the "color system of official uniforms". What kinds of colors are there? Which color is the noblest?

There are four colors in the color system of official uniforms in the Tang Dynasty, namely purple, crimson, green and cyan. The color of the noblest clothes mentioned should be the red and yellow Ming clothes worn by the emperor's old son, with dragon and phoenix totem patterns inlaid with gold thread, which is very noble. "Tongdian" is about the specific content of this color system of official uniforms: purple is more than three, flying is more than four and five, green is more than six and seven, and green is more than eight and nine.

Therefore, it can be seen that purple is the most distinguished official dress, and only officials with three or more products can wear purple clothes. You should know that officials with more than three qualities are all officials with great power and weight in the emperor's mind. When you see people wearing purple clothes, you can curry favor with them and lay a good foundation for your career. I'm kidding. I'm joking

Officials with more than four products wear scarlet, which is a very ambiguous color now. It is usually used on the favorite woman, which is very emotional. More than six products are green, green is good, and green is beautiful. Wearing green clothes makes people look young and beautiful, lively and lovely, and it is easier to attract peach blossoms. The youngest eight products and nine products wear cyan, which looks good, but they always feel that they can't be on the table. Like the maids around the young lady, they are passive and very timid in Nuo Nuo. No wonder it is used in the smallest official uniform. This is not surprising.

In fact, in the early Tang Dynasty, there was not such a big dividing line between the colors of official uniforms, and not many people cared what color to wear. Some people even collided with the emperor's shirt, but it was later banned. Maybe the emperor was afraid of embarrassment, too. In a word, it is also a kind of hierarchical etiquette in feudal society, and only historians can use it to study history.
