Why did the ancients wear Yu Pei? What's the moral?

The ancients believed that jade had the function of channeling and auspiciousness, and compared jade to a gentleman. The ancients liked to wear Yu Pei on their bodies, generally for decoration and identification. At the same time, Yu Pei can be hung around the waist and combined with the belt, which is both practical and beautiful. Generally, most people who wear jade articles are upper-class people with relatively little labor. You can not only use it to beautify your appearance, but also use Yu Pei to mark your status and rank.

Different Yu Pei usually has different functions. Yuhuan often expresses people's desire for happiness. Jade pot is a pot made of jade, which was given by the emperor to show respect for the elderly. Some Yu Pei also have the function of reminding and admonishing, such as Wei Pi in Yu Pei, a gentle and impatient person wears it to warn himself not to be impulsive.

In history, ordinary people were not allowed to wear Yu Pei, but in TV dramas, for the sake of beautiful pictures, both nobles and ordinary people wore gorgeous clothes, and Yu Pei was everywhere. However, there are strict requirements for wearing Yu Pei in history, and Yu Pei made of different materials has a grading function.

In addition, Yu Pei has the function of mobilizing troops. Seeing Yu Pei is like seeing a general. However, Yu Pei is rarely worn in modern society. First of all, the clothes of the ancients are completely different from what we have now. In ancient times, Yu Pei paid attention to coordination, which was all classical beauty. If you put on jeans or trousers printed with Yu Pei now, it will look out of place and ugly.

Secondly, because the better Yu Pei is very expensive, it is inconvenient to wear these expensive Yu Pei. These two reasons make people seldom wear Yu Pei to go out in modern society, and at most they just collect it or play with it in their hands.
