Chapter 353: Lonely Year Four

What Yu Nianniang said about the Emperor Fuxi, not to mention the imperial history, even the Great Heavenly Master didn't know about it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info everyone was at a loss, but the emperor was very interested, and asked Yu Nianniang a few questions.

Originally, it was about the year of Guluan, but it turned out that after talking about the Emperor Fuxi for a long time, after the imperial history came back, he was very annoyed, and played to the emperor with a stiff face: "The emperor, the minister thinks that about the Emperor Fuxi, we can talk about it another day, and now we want to discuss the matter of the year of Guluan." ”

The emperor also came back to his senses, and said to Yu Nianniang with a smile on his face: "Look at the farther and farther I talk, aren't you talking about the year of Guluan?" While taking the earth master with him, he also talked farther and farther. ”

The ministers in the palace were stunned, it was obviously Yu Nianniang who was pulling the Fuxi Emperor for a while, and she also brought in the divination gossip, arousing the emperor's interest, and wasting most of the day saying that it was useless. What emperor will deviate from the topic!

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yu Nianniang replied respectfully, and immediately pulled the topic back: "Therefore, going back to the source, the calendar is made by the great god Pangu who opened the world...... Twenty-four solar terms were formulated. The beginning of spring, commonly known as the spring, that is, the meaning of the beginning of spring, every year from February 4 to May of the lunar calendar when the sun reaches the yellow longitude of 315 degrees is the beginning of spring. It appears as early as January 20, and even to February 20 at the latest, so the beginning of spring occasionally appears before the Spring Festival, in order to adapt to the changes of cold and heat, the lunar calendar adopts the method of adding seven leap months in 19 years, so seven of the 19 years are the 'no spring years' that lack the beginning of spring, seven years are 'double spring years', and the other five years are 'single spring years'......"

"The calendar is not exactly 30 days in January, the big month has 30 days, and the small month has only 29 days, but the solar terms are still fixed for 30 days as a festival operation, in order to conform to the operation of the calendar, therefore, there must be a leap month. Set a leap month to adjust. Therefore, there will be two springs in the middle of the year because of the leap month...... Therefore, the year of solitude does not mean that it is inauspicious, the advantages and disadvantages of marriage, happiness or not, mainly related to the combination of the eight characters of the individual's birthday, the prosperity and weakness of the ten gods and the great luck, the changes of the passing years and other factors......"

Yu Nianniang spoke carefully and clearly, listening to Jin Luan's Chinese martial arts officials stunned, even the Great Heavenly Master, who knew the most, did not know some things that Yu Nianniang said.

Skepticism is natural.

"Nonsense!" This time, it was not Yu Shi who came out to refute Yu Nianniang just now, but Uncle Tong.

Uncle Tong glared at Yu Nianniang angrily, you must know that if Yu Nianniang's statement wins the trust of the emperor and the ministers, then the marriage of the two princes can really only be done next year.

"These are just your words, how come I have never heard them in all these years." Saying that, Uncle Tong turned around to the Great Heavenly Master: "The Great Heavenly Master didn't say anything here, you are just a small earth master who is actually talking nonsense and pointing ...... in this Jinluan Palace" Uncle Tong immediately stopped and changed his words: "Disturb the emperor." He originally wanted to say that Yu Nianniang was talking nonsense and pointing fingers at the affairs of the court, but when he thought that Yu Nianniang was invited to the Jinluan Palace by the emperor, he said that Yu Nianniang was pointing fingers, wasn't that scolding the emperor?

Uncle Tong sweated on his forehead, but fortunately he changed his words quickly.

Regarding Uncle Tong's words, many of the ministers nodded in agreement.

In the face of everyone's doubts, Yu Nianniang was not afraid at all, she stood in the Jinluan Hall generously, looking at the civil and military officials, that courage, that courage, if it wasn't for the quiet atmosphere on her body all the time, it would really give people the illusion of a superior person.

The emperor sitting on the dragon chair looked at Yu Nianniang below with a comfortable expression and refuted with the ministers, at this moment he was in an extremely relaxed mood, and he was glad that he was prescient. In order to call Yu Nianniang to the morning court, she almost applauded on the spot. If there is no Yu Nianniang, I'm afraid that it is his emperor himself who is fighting with the following group of people now, right?

"I'm telling the truth." Yu Nianniang looked at Uncle Tong: "May I ask how many books Uncle Tong has read about Open Heaven Pangu, or the ancient god of war, or the gossip divination calendar?" ”

Uncle Tong was stunned in place, he was a small official who relied on his daughter to enter the palace as a concubine, and was promoted to his current status.

Yu Nianniang turned to look at the emperor: "Back to the emperor, what the courtiers just said is based on evidence, in addition to the record in the "Book of Chu Silk", there are dozens of such books in the Daxiangguo Temple. ”

Dozens?

Hearing this number, the ministers were surprised.

How did they not know?

“…… Of course, you don't know, your lords are busy with official business every day, even if you have time to go to the Great Xiangguo Temple, you will not go to the Xiangguo Temple's Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to read books, there are dozens of books about Fuxi the Great, Nuwa, Shangyuan Calendar, Yellow Emperor Calendar, Open Heaven Pangu books, various time periods, various versions, very fine, if there is time to read all the books, we will have some new appreciation for the things of Open Heaven Pangu. What I see is only what I see, and maybe there are other accounts in it that I haven't seen that are similar to this. ”

All the ministers rolled their eyes in unison, who would be bored to read all the books in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of the Great Xiangguo Temple for the sake of a calendar?

“…… Moreover, you can go back and compare the calendars of the past dynasties, and it is easy to find that the law of leap months did not appear suddenly. There are very few records of leap months, but I remember that there was a tribe in the Western Regions called the Fire Clan, and they knew much more about the arrival and understanding of leap months than other tribes. ”

"Fire tribes?" The emperor on the dragon chair said suspiciously.

"Back to the emperor, yes." Yu Nianniang said: "This Fire Clan tribe seems to have been wiped out ten years ago, but they have a special belief, that is, they believe in the fire god and regard fire as their sacred relic. ”

The Emperor thought this was really interesting: "Then they don't have to make a fire to cook?" ”

"Absolutely." Yu Nianniang nodded: "So, they all have to be respectful." ”

"Although the leap month is a natural phenomenon of the calendar, after all, the people can't accept this statement for a while, and next year is the year of Lonely, I don't know what way the Yu Di Master can dodge, so that the people have a comfort in their hearts!"

"Yes, there are some special customs among the people, and the people of the Fire Clan have always followed this custom, but unfortunately the people of the Fire Clan are gone. However, there may be survivors! If you have a chance to find one or two people, you can prove it! ”

"During the leap month, there is a custom of the peasant women in the village taking turns to be the east, and inviting the female guests from the nearby villages to drink tea; The married daughter needs to buy pig's feet or noodles for her mother, and the gift must be tied with red silk thread and spring flowers; In some places, children buy shoes for their parents to repay their nurturing; There are also leap months when the daughter who will be married is invited home to have dinner, and when she leaves, the mother's family will give her daughter an umbrella or banana fan, which means that it is the daughter's umbrella...... It's the same everywhere...... Of course, it can also be practiced, but the person who does this practice still has to be done by someone who is highly profound......
