232: special exhibition of three emperors and five emperors and a hundred surnames

.

When it comes to the temples of emperors, Beijing people are not unfamiliar with them

.

It was first built in 1530 A.D

.

and has a history of nearly 500 years

.

The main hall “Jingde Chongsheng hall” is the only royal temple in China to offer sacrifices to the emperors of the Ming Dynasty from three emperors and five emperors to 188 emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and the East and west side halls offer sacrifices to 79 meritorious officials and famous generals

.

On December 23, 2020, after nearly two years of partial renovation, the Beijing Imperial Temple Museum was opened to the public

.

The new exhibition “Three Emperors and five emperors and a hundred surnames” attracted the attention of visitors

.

In the long history of ancient China, there were more than 400 people with yellow robes, but only 188 of them were worshipped in the temples of emperors

.

Why are some emperors unable to enjoy a place without “arranging faces”? How did this place, which flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, establish and select its worshipers? In terms of the number of emperors to be sacrificed, 18 emperors were sacrificed in Jiajing, 25 in Shunzhi and 188 in Qianlong

.

The emperors worshipped in the imperial temples of the past dynasties were selected by the emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties

.

There is no Qing Dynasty emperor among them, because it is the place where the Qing Dynasty emperors worship the former emperors

.

However, the emperors who were tyrannical in politics, wrongly appointed or responsible for the fall of the dynasty were not allowed to be worshipped

.

Surprisingly, no matter how the number increased, there was no Qin Shihuang among the 188 emperors offered sacrifices

.

According to the staff, the main reason is that Emperor Qinshihuang carried out tyranny, killing was too heavy to sacrifice

.

In addition, among the founding emperors, Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of the Western Jin Dynasty, and Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, were also excluded

.

On the day of opening the door again to welcome guests, the gates of the imperial temples of the past dynasties, which used to be sparsely populated, became lively

.

Many people who have made an appointment to visit are here
