Incredible art from the Northern Wei Dynasty, Mogao Caves, 4th century

My brief experience seeing Wei Dynasty art in North China taught me it's some of the most refined in Chinese history

What about story of ming lan? I loved the women’s dresses

Ooooh, another recommendation! I've never seen this one, but I might have to watch! Since it's set in the Song Dynasty, I can absolutely see why you love the dresses. This post goes into a lot of detail regarding Song dynasty clothing and how pretty it is:

My personal favorite for beautiful dresses though is STILL the Tang Dynasty: JUST LOOK AT THEM! Honestly, the only style of Chinese Historical fashion I really dislike is Qing dynasty. I'm really not a fan of how... SAMEY the fashion was in the Imperial Court at that time. TAT

[China Makeup history]The production of concealer powder for women in the Northern Wei Dynasty(386–535)of China 1,500 years ago

The author's experience of the production process is as follows:

1.Concealer powder for women in the Northern Wei Dynasty. After experiencing the entire production process, my first impression: the rice soaked for more than 20 days is really smelly! like the biological weapon my painful expression doesn't require any acting skills, but the rice soaked for many days is very soft and sticky, and it is very convenient to rub or grind it by hand (Women with no strength like me can quickly grind it into pulp in 5 minutes)

2.The process is complicated and the production takes more than 30 days. The resulting "rice powder" is indeed delicate. Although its adhesion cannot compare with today's cosmetics, it is still very good as a basic makeup powder for women more than a thousand years ago.

Jet-black Polyhedral Seal of The Western Wei General

This multi-faceted jet seal of the Western Wei dynasty, belonged to the famous General Dugu Xin (獨孤信). It has 8 edges and 26 sides: 18 square and 8 triangular ones. It is the ancient polyhedral seal with the largest number of facets.

Among them, 14 sides are engraved with inscriptions. The inscriptions range from one-character to five-character. The functionality is differentiated, including the use in official letters, orders, document labeling, etc.

The jet, a composite organic gem, from which the seal is carved, is known in China as “coal jade” (煤玉).

The total height of the object is 4.5 cm, the width is 4.35 cm, and the weight is 75.7 g.

The seal was accidentally discovered in 1981 by Song Qing, a student from Xunyang county (旬陽縣), Ankang, Shaanxi. While returning home from school, he picked up a weird object in the gravel on the roadside, which aroused his curiosity with its bizarre shape. Song Qing had no idea what it was. Having examined the inscriptions at home, he gave the find for examination to the local archaeological museum, where the artifact was considered not of particular cultural value.

The seal vegetated on the outskirts of the local exposition for another decade, until it was revealed and recognized by a prominent researcher Wang Hanzhang (王翰章) from the Xi'an Institute of Literature and History. On display in Shaanxi History Museum (陝西曆史博物館).

What about the emperor? If the Mc cheats on him and he loves them enough there is a chance for forgiveness? Or it’s pretty much done? Sorry if I ask too much questions but I am so curious!

No worries! No such thing as too many questions, especially since part of my creative process is TALKING about my game! haha That said, it really would depend on how it gets revealed. If it's in public, or in front of those the Emperor/Empress/Ruler can't silence, then unfortunately cheating on an Emperor is a death sentence. That said, if it can't be proven, or if it's privately revealed, or any number of other things, I can see at least survival, but perhaps not reconciliation. Why would someone who has that many spouses waste any further time on someone who cheats? (This is absolutely sarcasm!) I don't know one hundred percent, but its definitely something to think about for me, later down the line.
