    In the Qing Dynasty, toilets were mainly used in the imperial palace, including bedpans, gong buckets, etc., and there was no special toilet, and the place where the toilets were stored was called "clean room".

    The bedpan filled with charcoal ash is prepared for stool, just cover it with charcoal ash after unraveling, and pour it directly into the gong bucket and cover it with a lid without charcoal ash when urinating. The toilets used by the emperor and the concubines are called "official rooms", which are kept by special eunuchs, and when needed, they are passed on to the "official rooms", which are usually not placed in the palace, and the toilets of the rest of the inferior people are called "bedpans".
