In the Tang Dynasty, Bai Juyi chanted in "Yi Yu Dance Song": "Colored clothes and summer clothes shake their crowns and step out, and cymbals are beautiful all over the mountain." Women can enjoy the honor of wearing a crowned dress when they get married. This traditional custom has been widely circulated among Zhejiang people for more than 800 years. How can a girl get married dressed up so noble and sit side by side with the emperor's "queen" and enjoy such supreme honor? There is a touching story circulating here:

Corruption occurred in the Southern Song Dynasty, and Jin Wushu invaded the capital Lin 'an (Hangzhou). Zhao Gou, the King of Kang, was defeated by Jin Bing and fled south. After crossing Qiantang and Cao E, the nomads from China are still in hot pursuit. Kang Wang then went straight to Ninghai after Fenghua. When I arrived at Xidian Qianjin Village, I suddenly saw a ruined temple on the roadside, and a village girl sat on the threshing floor in front of the temple. When the village girl saw that Kang Wang had escaped, she used her quick wits and told Kang Wang to hide in the grain basket and sit on it casually. When the nomads from the army chased the girl and asked if anyone was passing by, the village girl unhurriedly pointed with her hand and said that they had fled to the south. Nomads from the letter, go south. As a result, Kang Wang escaped death. Kang Wang cheated the village girl of Jinbing with clever tricks, which made him very grateful. He immediately promised the girl that if she ascended the throne again, she could enjoy the honor of sitting in a sedan chair, wearing a phoenix crown and wearing a gown in the name of "queen" when she got married. Soon, Kang Wang was saved and returned to the Golden Temple. He remembered the "golden words and jade words" made by the village girl, so he made a decree to let the village girl be the "queen" and let her really enjoy the special honor of the phoenix crown and the imperial concubine when she got married. At the same time, the ruined temple was built, engraved with the words "Imperial Palace". Later, rural girls followed suit when they got married, wearing robes with hat badges. This custom is spread all over Zhejiang, which is the story of "Zhejiang women do their best to seal the king". This custom spread for more than 800 years, and was gradually abolished after liberation.
