Sacrifice to the sky, this is the most solemn and solemn sacrifice ceremony of the Chinese nation, and its origin can even be traced back to ancient times. The reason why it is solemn and solemn is because the worship of heaven represents the communication between man and heaven!

What is the day? Heaven is the supreme being!

It is the ultimate destination in the hearts of the Chinese people, he has no special image, or even nothingness, but everyone will call it Tian, or "God", but in the Great Song Dynasty, he was named the Jade Emperor by Zhao Zhen's father.

Heaven is in charge of all things, whether it is good or bad, the Chinese people will attribute the ultimate cause and effect to it, and it will also produce a slightly general derivative - Tao!

Some virtuous and virtuous people can communicate with such mysterious and ethereal things as the Heavenly Dao, but they are not ordinary people, so the ceremony of worshiping the heavens is presided over by the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven is the emperor, and he is also the person chosen by God, and the emperor is the ruler of the people who represent the herdsmen of heaven.

Sacrificing to heaven means that the emperor expresses his gratitude for the nourishment and nourishment of all things through the heavens, and prays to God to bless the people of China.

The southern suburbs worship the sky is like this, now the year is not good, the spring disaster is serious, the heavy snow has become the haze covering the land of the Great Song Dynasty, and in the eyes of the people and officials, the only person who can dispel this haze is today, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty!

This is a very serious matter, and it is also a matter of challenging the dignity and prestige of the emperor, Zhao Zhen is reluctant to go to the "great god" in person, because he knows that it is impossible, so it is a huge threat to his emperor's prestige.

Everyone regards him as a true god, so many of Zhao Zhen's adventurous actions, or drastic reforms, will be supported by some similar to blind obedience, and if after his southern suburbs worship to the sky, the spring disaster has not passed for a long time, isn't this telling the world that his emperor is not a so-called god, but an ordinary person like the emperors of previous dynasties?

This will definitely deal a blow to the confidence of the people, he Zhao Zhen didn't want to climb on the shrine to sit, but now he can't do without this shrine, he even needs this shrine to carry out what he needs.

But this time he had to do it, because as an emperor, he had to do something when the country suffered a disaster, even if it was the same whether he did it or not, but the people cared, and everyone in the world cared.

If it is useless to pray to heaven after taking 10,000 steps back, then there are traitors in the court, rebels in the country, and unjust cases in prison...... And so that all the excuses that can be activated will be activated, and everything that can be used to bear the blame for the emperor can be used.

Zhao Zhen also agreed to preside over the southern suburbs when Pang Ji vaguely revealed this......

The thick snow had begun to show a little signs of melting, and although the cold wind was raging, it was more like a painful wail before being dispelled, and it struggled to bring up a burst of snowflakes and rushed into Zhao Zhen's carriage to "roar".

Sancai just waved the dust in his hand lightly, and fastened the curtain of the car with his hand, and it could no longer turn up any wind and waves, and it hit the curtain weakly, forming one strange appearance after another.

Zhao Zhen didn't take it seriously, took a sip of the hot drink and continued to look at the scroll in his hand, which was temporarily ordered by Ouyang Xiu as Huiyuan's scroll. This year, unlike previous years, the examiner of the provincial examination can only recommend a huiyuan to the emperor by himself, but cannot set it himself.

Only after Zhao Zhen also agreed with the idea of the main examination, this huiyuan could take effect, and the emperor had the right to change the huiyuan, which was a step for Zhao Zhen to grasp the imperial examination even more and make the fresh blood of the imperial court become a protégé of the Son of Heaven.

These volumes were all disrupted after three times, in order to let Ouyang Xiu slap his favorite volumes in front of him, giving himself a preconceived feeling.

The first few copies are very simple, but the one in front of me is extraordinary, just this volume can show the skill of the person who wrote it, can write a piece of scripture so smoothly and practiced, and can also tell the deep meaning contained in it, as well as contact the sages to recommend the object, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but be amazed.

The words are full of the author's splendor, and each sentence can be described as a pearl!

"This article is very well written, and the person who wrote it is not only a splendid belly, but also a well-read and strong memory, and a thorough understanding of Gewu and Confucian classics!" Zhao Zhen couldn't help but praise it, a good article is a good article, and reading it can always give people a feeling of sweetness of food, which makes people want to stop, and read it from beginning to end in one breath.

Putting down the teacup, Zhao Zhen stretched out his hand and was about to tear off the paste name on the exam paper, but there was a sudden stop, Zhao Zhen thought about it, and the article in front of him was quite Meng Ke's style, just like that Dongpo ...... If it's him...... I must not order him to be a huiyuan!

Zhao Zhen is also a father as an emperor, Ling'er fell in love with this Su Dongpo, and he had to find ways to give him to his daughter, even if he sacrificed his future political life, not to mention, a person's well-written articles are not necessarily suitable for being an official......

Sancai looked at Zhao Zhen's hovering hand a little strangely, and the official family rarely did things so hesitantly: "Official, don't you keep this article as an introduction, maybe the next one will be better!" ”

Zhao Zhen borrowed the slope to get off the donkey: "Yes, yes, I'll take a look at the next article......"

After reading the second article, Zhao Zhen felt that this article was on par with the first article, and he began to lose his eyes when he read it, and he felt sweaty and hot in the cold winter!

Such an article is worth reading, especially in the winter, not because the article is well written and makes people's blood surge, but because the article is novel in its concept, and it can connect Gewu with the Great Song Dynasty and Confucianism from multiple angles.

Zhao Zhen didn't want to point this article to the first in the provincial examination, and after tearing up the name, Zhao Zhen was shocked, Su Shi was written on the brow of the exam paper, and when Zhao Zhen tore the first article, Zeng Gong jumped on the paper......

Zhao Zhen shook his head and smiled bitterly, there would be such a mistake, according to reason, Su Shi's article should be opened and closed, so that people can't afford to put it down, why did it become Zeng Gong? This is something that Zhao Zhen didn't expect.

Smiled slightly bitterly, is it so difficult to dedicate yourself to Ling'er to find a good husband? Su Shi is a good person, he is a model husband who loves his wife in history, and Zhao Zhen is relieved to marry Ling'er to him, but in front of him, he has already named him Huiyuan......

The big red Zhu Pi has already written a first-class first class on it, if he wants to change it, it will inevitably be known by Ouyang Xiu, with his straight temper, I am afraid that he will say something to admonish or even more faceless publicity......

I really shouldn't interfere in the selection of Huiyuan, if Ouyang Xiu approves and chooses Huiyuan, I just need to cross out Su Shi's name after he reports it, and now I can only think of a way slowly.

At least she still has a chance when she takes the palace exam, and the princess of the Great Song Dynasty really has no precedent for marrying the champion, as long as Su Shi is not allowed to get the champion......
