Does the ancient beauty point two red dots on her cheek have any meaning?
Cinnabar strip beauty, in ancient times, was a way of makeup. One theory is that Shangguan Waner, a talented woman in the period of Wu Zetian, was punished by Wu Zetian because she liked Toy Boy and Zhang Changzong of Wu Zetian, and was punished by Wu Zetian for tattooing her face, also known as "Joan Punishment". However, Shangguan Waner begged the performer to change the color of the tattoo to cinnabar, and stabbed it into a plum blossom shape and stabbed it on his forehead. Later, even Wu Zetian was impressed by her talent, and this tattoo gradually became popular among the people, and people rushed to imitate it, and then it was slowly simplified into a red dot. There is also a saying that an ancient princess took a nap in Meiyuan. When she woke up, a plum blossom fell on her forehead and could not get rid of it, so she was imitated.
