This poem is one of the three Newly Married Bride poems written by the poet.

Poets have written a lot of poems about the bride, Wang Jian this one is very interesting. Wonderful where? There are three wonderful:

First, the angle is novel. Poet wrote the new bride, not from the clever comb, sitting in a sedan chair, worship, drink wine, into the cave and other people **** know the angle to write, but the "entry point" first in the bride after the wedding on the third day of the first kitchen cooking, can be said to be a unique eye.

I think that the cape is willing to be the consort of the dress, worship of heaven and earth is the emperor's suburb of the gift of heaven, the Chinese folk will be a woman's life is also a king.

The bride wears Feng Guan Xiapi from the origin of Feng Guan Xiapi since the Song Dynasty has been stipulated to have a certain grade of the fate of the woman can be worn to wear, but it is also the folk women's traditional dress for the newlyweds. In the dress system of strict hierarchy of the ancient society, how would allow folk women to enjoy the honor of wearing Feng Guan Xia cape when they get married, so that the girls in the wedding dress so noble, with the emperor concubines and sit side by side, enjoy this supreme honor? Xue Baochai's cape is said to be the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin soldiers invaded the south, captured the emperor's grandchildren, Song Huizong's son of Kang Wang Zhao Gong fled in a hurry, and went straight to Jiangnan.

As a result, King Kang escaped the disaster, he thanked the beautiful and witty little girl in front of him, and he gave her a red handkerchief, told her his identity, and said: "Next year's today will come to marry you. At that time you only need to wave the red handkerchief on the ridge, I will recognize you.

"King Kang to Hangzhou after ascending to the throne, became the Southern Song Dynasty Emperor Gaozong, as promised to go to marry the girl, but the girl stayed in the folk free and easy life, but also can not leave behind the folks, do not want to go to the palace. But also afraid of the emperor's order is difficult to disobey, they prepared a lot of red handkerchiefs, told all the sisters are waving the red handkerchiefs, so that the emperor could not recognize, had to give up.

But in order to repay the kindness of saving lives, Emperor Gaozong of Song still issued a decree: "Zhejiang women as much as the king! "This can let the accompanying ceremonial officer worried, said to the emperor:" This is a king how to get? "Emperor Gaozong thought for a moment and said: "How hard can it be? Let them all wear cape when they get married!
