Legend has it that the folk style of sticking "Fu" began when Jiang Taigong was a god. The gods from all walks of life were properly distributed, and Mrs. Jiang's wife, Ma, also came to ask for the gods. Jiang Taigong was helpless, so he named her a "poor god" and stipulated that she could not go to any place with the word "Fu" pasted.

As a result, the common people posted "blessings" and set off firecrackers to drive away this unpopular "poor god".

It was during the Qing Dynasty, Cixi proclaimed herself "Lafayette", and the servants and maids under her could be said to be sloppy. It is said that the title of "Lafayette" is because Cixi is particularly spiritual in praying for rain, and the minions below cry out for the joy of winning Cixi. It is said that one year the weather was dry and there was no rain for a long time, and Cixi was idle and in a hurry, so she thought about "begging for rain".

So the people below followed her to "beg for rain", and begged for more than half a month, and Cixi "begged for rain" again on this day, just in time for the rain on this day, and the slave maid Gege slapped Cixi's sycophants for a good time. Some say that you are a true god, some say that you are a god, and some say that you are really Chrysostom, and then a Gege says that you are really "Lafayette".

Cixi was very happy to hear this title, and said, "I love to hear what you say." Since then, everyone below has called Cixi "Lafayette", Cixi is suspicious by nature, and everyone below is afraid of her, for fear of making her unhappy and losing her life.

One year, when the Spring Festival was approaching, Cixi took a pen to write Spring Festival couplets, and was happy to reward her writing to a servant below and let him paste it. On this day, Cixi had a whim, and wanted to see the Spring Festival couplets posted by the people below. This made the minions who were rewarded by Cixi with Spring Festival couplets tremble, knowing that most of the eunuchs in the feudal society did not know how to read, and if there was something wrong, they would definitely lose their heads.

No one dared to oppose what Cixi decided, so let it be left to fate. It can be said that she will come to what she is afraid of, Cixi came to the small courtyard where the Spring Festival couplets were pasted, and when she walked in, she saw the big word "Fu" written by herself on the wall. After seeing it, he was furious, it turned out that the word "Fu" was reversed, and some of the female eunuchs who followed were also frightened and didn't know what to say.

Cixi was just about to punish the crime, when a Gege walked up to Cixi and said: "Lafayette", you see that the "blessing" has come (fallen). The people below came back to their senses at this time and shouted one after another: Blessing has arrived! Blessings have arrived! Blessings have arrived!
