In Stephen Chow's movie "Nine Pins Sesame Officer" in the yellow waistcoat has the role of protection after the meritorious officials, in the "Kangxi's private visit" and "Wu Xun Chuan" and other Qing dynasty themes in film and television drama also have rewarded the wearing of a yellow waistcoat records. Then the Qing Dynasty when the yellow lab coat in the end is a function of what clothing?
The yellow lab coat was a uniform for Qing Dynasty officials, and there were many uniforms for officials, such as gowns, uniforms, uniforms and rainwear. Specific styles in the famous work "qinghui dian tu" have detailed instructions and records. Walking clothes are generally marching and traveling clothes, mainly worn when riding a horse. This kind of waistcoat is characterized by a short coat and short sleeves, which makes it convenient for horseback riding and archery.
During the Qing Dynasty, the emperor was followed by a large number of ministers of internal affairs and guards. All of these people wore rows of coats, hats with peacock plumes, and also wore swords. But the closest to the emperor's guards are not allowed to carry a knife. They wore row coat is bright yellow satin or yarn made of yellow coat without pattern and color embroidery.
The Qing Dynasty had strict regulations on the color of clothes, and the emperor's exclusive color was bright yellow. The general nobility could use golden yellow, while commoners could only use apricot yellow. The yellow waistcoat was used as the clothing of the guards of the emperor, so it was bright yellow. However, if the guards were relieved of their duties, then they could no longer wear the yellow waistcoat, which was also known as the duty lab coat, and in Manchurian, as the bald mountain lab coat. This has a different meaning from the lab coat that is rewarded for wearing a yellow waistcoat.
Reward to wear a yellow coat is generally two cases, one is in the hunting school shooting, the emperor rewarded the prize. The other case is the real reward to wear a yellow lab coat, that is, the reward for meritorious senior military generals or civilian officials in command of the army. In the Xianfeng emperor before, every fall to Mulan hunting twenty days, hit the deer or other rare game offered to the emperor, will be rewarded with a yellow lab coat. However, this line of yellow coats can only be worn when hunting, usually is not allowed to wear. During the hunt, there are also archery competitions, Manchu and Han civil and military officials can participate in, shooting five arrows or more will be rewarded, may get a yellow coat.
The second case of the yellow lab coat is always available to wear, mainly military officials who were rewarded by the emperor. However, this kind of yellow lab coat prevailed only after the Xianfeng Emperor. For meritorious military generals rewards also include the addition of ? Batulu? Brave number,? Reward wearing plume? and? Reward to wear a yellow coat?
The Baton Rouge is the first of its kind in the world.
In the "Qing Historical Manuscripts" in the suppression of the Taiping Rebellion of military generals there are a lot of these rewards. For example, the Zhongxing four masters Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, Zuo Zongtang, Hu Linyi. Civilians in command of the army and horses to wear yellow coats is in the Qianlong ten years before the precedent was set.
The above yellow waistcoat in the production process is still slightly different, such as the yellow waistcoat of the line hunting and duties, the general buttons are black. Wugong yellow waistcoat, on the other hand, is yellow buttons, this difference can be seen in the Qing Dynasty ruler's intention is very deep.
Ancient Chinese emperors for the reward of meritorious ministers, and foreign countries like to promulgate medals commemorative medals are different, especially in the Qing dynasty emperors. They liked to reward their subjects more with clothes, cloth, gold, wine and other imperial items. After the death of the emperor, they would also reward their subjects with relics from the emperor's life, such as snuff bottles, clothes, literary treasures, books, etc. as a souvenir. The courtiers who had made meritorious achievements would be issued iron coupons, painted on the Lingnan Pavilion, or erected monuments. This point is really quite different from the European royal family, but also a characteristic of the Chinese emperors.
