Ouyang Xiu (1007-1072), also known as Yongshu, also known as Zuiweng and Liuyi Jishui, was born in Jishui, Jiangxi Province. He was a famous writer and historian in the Northern Song Dynasty and the leader of the poetry innovation movement in the Tang and Song Dynasties. The Eight Great Masters... The Poetry and Literature Reform Movement of the Northern Song Dynasty, following the ancient prose movement of the Tang Dynasty, once again pushed the development of ancient literature, especially prose and literary theory, a big step forward.
Here, I would also like to remind everyone. That is, stirrups and saddles were invented by farmers during the Eastern Han Dynasty (Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty) and entered the equipment stage, but they were not completely popularized. In other words, the stirrups in some places may be simpler, maybe just a rope harness. No matter how stupid our ancestors were, they could not be thrown to the ground by horses every day, nor could they sit on bare horses and fight every day. Scientific inventions all come from the inspiration of life and the creativity and imagination of the people.
Indeed, the Huns did not have horse stirrups when fighting in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, so they suffered a big loss during the confrontation and fled in disastrous defeat. Since then, the Eastern Han Dynasty regime has prohibited the import of iron tools beyond the Great Wall. Therefore, at that time, the Huns only had bronze swords, and the cavalry were good at bow and arrow shooting. They adopted the strategic policy of attacking if they could be defeated, running if they could not be defeated, grabbing as much as they could, and burning if they could not. It was also at this time that Li Guang, the flying general, was given the title of "flying general" by the generals inside and outside the Great Wall because of his excellent riding and shooting skills. "flying" means "fast". No need to ask why you are so fast. You can't go fast even if you want to just ride on horseback! Only die soon! Therefore, the reason why Li Guang was fast at that time was that Li Guang adopted the innovation of stirrups and saddles, so he could ride a horse as fast as flying.
In 1937, two brothers, Fan Guilin and Fan Guicai, opened their own mahua shops. Fan Guilin opened a restaurant named "Guifaxiang". Fan Guicai opened a restaurant named "Guifacheng". Due to the competition between them, the quality of Mahua has been improved. Fan Guilin stands for innovation, and after repeated explorations, he finally developed new varieties of stuffed and semi-risen noodles. The ratio of alkali to alkali increases or decreases with seasonal and climate changes, so that the quality of the fried twists remains stable all year round. The word furniture has a wide meaning, but usually refers to "tables, chairs, benches" and the like made by carpenters. The ancients sat on the floor, with beds as the main indoor space and mats on the floor. Later, furniture such as screens, tables, and desks appeared. In the Shang, Zhou, Qin, Han, and Wei dynasties, there were not many changes. Stools and tables appeared, but they were not the mainstream; until the Han Dynasty, the bed entered the Central Plains. By the Southern and Northern Dynasties, tall seats appeared one after another, and the feet were Sitting became popular. In the Tang Dynasty, there were still two forms of living in parallel. High tables, chairs, stools, etc. were used by many people, but sitting on the floor was still a daily habit for many people.
Since the Song Dynasty, the idea of ??sitting tall really started to take root, and a variety of furniture suitable for sitting tall came into being. The Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties required excellence in the production and design of furniture, especially the Ming and Qing dynasties, which became the heyday of traditional furniture.
The characteristic of Chinese furniture in the past is that it not only improves its use value in serving mankind through the evolution of each historical period, but also condenses different artistic styles formed in its specific environment. Among the numerous pieces of furniture from the Ming and Qing dynasties that exist, they are relatively concentrated in reflecting the value of exquisite craftsmanship, extremely high artistic appreciation value and heavy historical and cultural value. This makes furniture one of the cultural heritages that the Chinese nation is proud of and cherishes
