It is well known that the winter in the north is very cold. Nowadays, people rarely go out in winter. It is better to hide in the house and use air-conditioning and heating to keep warm. The development of science and technology has brought us a lot of convenience. In ancient times, science and technology were backward, and there was no electricity, let alone heating things like air conditioners. So how did the ancients heat up? Next, the editor will speak slowly for everyone.

In ancient times, people’s living conditions were relatively backward. When the winter was approaching, people would prepare wood in advance, and wait until winter to burn wood for heating. That kind of wood can burn for a long time, but in the process of burning But there will be strong smoke and pungent smell. In ancient times, wealthy people would buy charcoal to burn charcoal for heating. Those who could afford charcoal were all dignitaries. The average people couldn't even afford to eat, let alone buy charcoal for heating. As the emperor of a country, what does the emperor rely on for heating in the palace? The emperor
is the ninth-five emperor. He wears dragon robes and to show his identity throughout the year. It is impossible for these clothes to keep warm in winter, so the emperor’s palace must have a mystery. It turns out that there is a mystery in the palace underground. In order to keep warm, the emperor ordered people to dig a lot of tunnels underground, and then evenly placed braziers in the tunnels, and sent people to go to the cold underground to burn charcoal, because the charcoal fire burned upward Therefore, these maids who burned charcoal in the ground were covered with frostbite in a winter. However, the heating in the tunnel will spread to every corner of the palace, just like our floor heating now.
In the Tang Dynasty, because it was still cold inside the palace at the beginning of winter, Li Longji invented a particularly shameless method of heating, that is, using the body of a palace lady. In the cold winter, many palace ladies unbuttoned their clothes so that the emperor could keep warm. When the emperor's hands and feet were cold, they would reach into the arms of the palace ladies to keep warm. The emperor suffered from the warmth. It is quite normal for these palace ladies to catch a bad cold in winter. Although they are particularly painful, they still have to take the initiative to warm the emperor. Only in this way can they get the warm clothing rewarded by the emperor and survive the cold winter. Before going to bed, the emperor would strip off the ladies’ clothes and let them lie down in the shaggy quilt. The emperor went to sleep only after the ladies used their bodies to warm the cold quilt.
