Brief introduction of Ji Xiang

Whether indoors or outdoors, incense sticks are mostly set in the center, without supports and sides, and the face looks good. Incense was very strong before the Qing Dynasty. Burning incense was originally one of the sacrificial ceremonies of ancient people in China, but it has evolved into a part of people's daily life in the Tang and Song Dynasties. From the words "playing the piano with incense", "bathing with incense" and "the window is bright and clean, and the incense is in it", we can see the scene of cigarettes lingering in the daily life of ancient nobles, which shows the pursuit of vulgar and elegant life by ancient Han literati, and burning incense in the furnace has become a necessary furniture in the court. However, Ji Xiang can sometimes be used by others.
