In the Western Capital Miscellaneous Records by Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there is a record that "beautiful women of the Han Dynasty used to thread seven-hole needles in the open-collared tower on July 7th, and everyone was accustomed to it." This is the earliest record of begging for cleverness that we have seen in ancient documents. In later Tang and Song Dynasty poetry, women's begging for skills were repeatedly mentioned. Wang Jian of the Tang Dynasty wrote a poem saying "The dim stars are adorned with pearly light, and the palace maids are busy begging for skills on the Qixi Festival." According to "Kaiyuan Tianbao Yishi", Emperor Taizong of Tang and his concubines held banquets in the Qing Palace on the Qixi Festival every year, and the palace maids each begged for skills. This custom has been popular among the people and passed down from generation to generation.During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the Qixi Festival was quite grand, and there was even a market in the capital city that sold items for the Qixi Festival, which was known as the Qixi Market. Song Dynasty Luoye and Jin Yingzhi compiled "Zuiweng Tanlu" said: "On the Qixi Festival, people buy and sell Qiqiao items in front of Pan Tower. From July 1st, the carriages and horses are congested, and three days before the Qixi Festival, the carriages and horses are blocked and cannot pass. The traffic is blocked and people cannot get out until nightfall." Here, from the grand occasion of buying Qiqiao items in the Qixi Market, we can infer the lively scene of the Qixi Festival at that time. People start preparing for the Qiqiao Festival from the first day of July. The Qiqiao Market is bustling with people and vehicles. When it is close to the Chinese Valentine's Day, the Qiqiao Market becomes a sea of people, with vehicles and horses having difficulty passing through. The atmosphere and customs seem to be no less than the grandest festival - the Spring Festival, which shows that the Qiqiao Festival was one of the favorite festivals of the ancients. |
