Wedge: The crown left behind in Meishan, the broken shuttle in the south of the Yangtze River
March 19, the seventeenth year of Chongzhen.
In Meishan, Beijing, under the crooked locust tree, Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian hanged himself.
The emperor's hair covers his face, he wears a blue dragon robe, a silk midriff, and white silk and red shoes. Although his crown and belt are messy, he still maintains the majesty of the Han family. The edict was written in blood with eight characters: Let the thieves split my corpse, but do not hurt any of the people.
The palace people were scattered in all directions, except for an old chamberlain who fled south crying and holding the Yishan crown that the emperor always wore. After a bumpy journey, we finally arrived at Taohuawu, Suzhou at the end of April.
At that time, the country in the south of the Yangtze River was still unknown. In the city of Gusu, it was misty and rainy, the silkworm business was in full swing, and the sound of silkworms was heard day and night.
The Shen family in the south of the Yangtze River has been in charge of weaving for generations. Since the Yongle period, it has been the royal weaving workshop, responsible for the weaving of Su, Song, Hang, Jia and Hu. It has a thousand-year-old loom collection and unparalleled weaving techniques.
The old chamberlain held the door of the Shen family. Before he died, he only gave the blood-stained Wing Shan crown to the young man who opened the door.
The young man's name is Shen Heyi, he is twenty-one years old, his face is like warm jade, his eyes are like bright stars, his fingertips are always wrapped with silk thread, and his knuckles are clearly defined. He is the fifth generation of the Shen family.
The crown fell into my hand, feeling as heavy as a mountain.
The old servant was exhausted, and the news of Chongzhen's death suddenly spread.
In the city of Suzhou, thousands of machines stopped and thousands of shuttles landed.
Shen Heyi held the Han crown and stood in front of the loom, which was weaving a "Splendid Picture of Mountains and Rivers". Thousands of miles of mountains and rivers were just formed, and the pattern of the clothes and crown only needed the last stitch.
He raised his hand and shuttled down.

The thousand-year-old machine had its main beam broken.
The country is destroyed, but the crown remains;
The crown is there, the clothes are there;
Wherever the clothes are, China is there.
A movie that uses clothes as swords and silk as blood
