What was the ominous sign when Cixi was born, but Daoguang thought it was a good omen, and she also held a banquet to celebrate for three days?

When Cixi was born, a group of crows circled in the sky, which made people panic, but Daoguang thought it was a good omen. Until modern times, many people thought crows were unlucky, so they felt unlucky when they saw crows. However, Cixi, an extinct woman, gave birth to a large flock of crows, which not only did not make Daoguang feel ominous, but became a good omen.

When Cixi was born, not only crows were everywhere, but Cixi did not cry. There is no detailed record of the place where Cixi was born in history, but crows flew all over the sky on the day when Cixi was born. Because crows were regarded as birds that brought death in ancient times, the people were very flustered, and the newly born Cixi did not cry. At that time, Cixi's parents thought that Cixi was born and dead, and they planned to throw her away. Unexpectedly, Cixi cried after the crow flew away, so Cixi survived.

In this ominous situation, people are afraid, but Daoguang thinks it is a good sign to hold a banquet. Many officials and people feel uneasy because of the unlucky symbol brought by crows. Although the crow was considered as a symbol of good luck in the Tang Dynasty, it was obviously not the case in the Qing Dynasty, but Daoguang still thought it was a good omen. Therefore, in order to celebrate such a sign, Daoguang celebrated it, which made many people think it was a good sign.

In fact, Daoguang did this only to appease the people. I know that the Qing dynasty has declined, and the appearance of crows has disturbed people's hearts. Therefore, Emperor Daoguang could not make the situation worse, so he said it was a good sign to celebrate letting people out of panic. But everything Daoguang Emperor did was for the country, but the birth of Cixi was really unlucky, because the existence of Cixi destroyed the mountains and rivers of the Qing Dynasty.
