During the Spring Festival of p>29, Xinhua News Agency interviewed Professor Wu Bin, president of Shenyang Palace Museum, and Tong Yue, director of the research office of Shenyang Palace Museum. Wu Bin said that during the New Year, people should stick to the door gods and paste Spring Festival couplets, and the court in the Qing Dynasty was no exception. The difference is that the royal door gods and couplets are hung instead of pasted. Spring Festival couplets are not written in red paper, but in white paper or white silk, with blue edges wrapped outside and red strips embedded inside. Calligraphy was originally written in Manchu, and changed to Chinese characters after the middle of Qing Dynasty. The door gods hung in the Qing palace are first mounted in a frame with copper ornaments, drawn on thick silk or cloth, and edged with yellow silk. There are four kinds of door gods, namely, Jinwu door gods, Wugu Fengdeng door gods, Fushou Shuangquan fairy door gods, and boy door gods. Tong Yue, director of the research office of Shenyang Palace Museum, said that after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, many Manchu folk customs were gradually brought to the court. The difference between the folk New Year and the court was that the royal door gods and couplets were hung, not pasted. Spring Festival couplets are written in white paper or white silk instead of red paper. The hanging time is from the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month to the 16th day of the first month of the last year.
