At noon in the Chinese New Year's Eve, Yin Yuan led Yin Qingyu and Yin Qingfeng brothers to the ancestral hall located on the east side of Runxia Courtyard, presided over by the uncle housekeeper. This is the first time Yin Qingfeng has participated in the ancestor worship ceremony.

The door couplet on the gate of the ancestral hall reads: From Yin Shui to look out of Chen County, let the ancestor Shixing Hall out of Jingzhao

Seeing that Yin Qingfeng was stopping, the uncle housekeeper explained: "My Yin family is a lineage, and I am a descendant of Yin Shang. Due to war and other reasons, the earliest ancestor in the ancestral hall was Yin Ren. Yin Zuren lived in Chen County, Yuzhou, so the county is known as Chen County.

After the fall of the Chen Dynasty, Yin Gong and other great-ancestors moved to Exian County, Jingzhao County, so the hall name is Jingzhao. ”

Yin Qingfeng was ridiculed twice by Li Shimin before, and went back to secretly make up for the origin of the Yin family, but there were many things he still didn't know.

Chen County is the modern Huaiyang County. The ancient proverb says: 1,000 years to see Beijing, 3,000 years to see Xi'an, 5,000 years to see Luoyang, 6,000 years to see Huaiyang.

The name of a family's county is not because the ancestral house is there, so you can take it as the county. There is no level of fame in the family background, even if it is declared to the public, no one recognizes it.

The so-called hall name refers to the classic stories or anecdotes of a certain historical celebrity on the ancestor of the surname, for example, the "three moves" of the surname Meng refers to the allusion of Meng's mother's three moves; It also refers to the meaning of a family branch. For example, the surname Qiu "Fufeng Hall", "Wuxing Hall", "Henan Hall", "Qi County Hall" and so on.

After Yin Yuan's three fathers and sons gathered to stand solemnly, a deacon began to beat the drum, and Yin Yuan stepped forward to make the first gift and then knelt down in front of the wooden plaque that recorded the names of the ancestors.

After Yin Yuan got up, he began to offer incense for the first time, wine for the first time, and reset to stand. Then there are two offerings, kneeling, two offerings of wine, three sacrifices of pigs, chickens, and geese, prostration, two prostrations, three prostrations, and resetting and standing.

When Yin Qingfeng thought that this was the end, Yin Yuan began to offer three gifts, kneeling, three wine, fruits, treasures, sacrifices, one kowtow, two kowtows, three kowtows, and reset standing.

With his previous experience, Yin Qingfeng knew that he shouldn't be done yet. Sure enough, Yin Qingfeng saw that all the people knelt down. He hurriedly imitated the movements of others, kneeling three times and bowing nine times before standing up.

After Yin Yuan returned to the position just now from the wooden plaque and stood up, everyone began to bow and bow again, and after three bows, the entire ancestor worship procedure was over.

Although the ancestor worship ceremony is tedious, Yin Qingfeng likes it, which he believes is an essential part of Chinese tradition.

It is precisely this kind of worship and sacrifice to ancestors that has been passed down for thousands of years that has made Chinese civilization not broken.

The reason why most people in modern times belong to the apodocratic is that it was only after 49 years that a certain party member carried out a one-size-fits-all approach, which illuminated their character of being homeless and without ancestors. The so-called Chinese civilization has actually slowly begun to break down since the abolition of ancient Chinese and the implementation of vernacular Chinese.

Being fortunate enough to experience this kind of ancestor worship, Yin Qingfeng was very solemn in his heart at this time. After everyone else had left, he dared to take a closer look at everything here.

The stepped stone platform is placed on the wooden plaque of the ancestors of the past dynasties, the top row of the front is Yin Ren's, and the following is Yin Yu, Yin Chang, Yin crosses the river, Yin Wang, Yin Gaoming, Yin Gaoliang, Yin Gaochang; The next row of Yin Gaoming is Yin Bu Harm, Yin Bu Doubt, Yin Bu Zhan, Yin Bu Qi, and Yin Bu Yu.

The next row of Yin Bu is the head of the Yin monk; Below Yin Buyu is Yin Fantong; The next row of the head of the Yin monk is: Yin Yuan, Yin Qiao.

Seeing Yin Qingfeng watching the ancestral tablet, the uncle housekeeper explained to him beside him.

Wu Geng, the son of King Wu of Shang, was placed in the hometown of the Yin Dynasty by King Wu of Zhou and continued to manage the remnants of Yin Shang. After the rebellion of the three prisons, Wu Geng was killed. Zhou Gongdan transferred Wu Geng's fief and feud to Wei Ziqi, the brother of the king of Zhou, and established the Song State, and some of the descendants of Yin Shang took the country as their surname, which was the Yin family.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the northern land was too conservative and migrated to Changping, Chen County, and became the ancestor of the Yin family of Changping, Chen County... Most of the characters surnamed Yin in the history books are from Chen County Changping...

In the last years of the Western Jin Dynasty, the northern families moved south to escape the war, and the Yin family of Chen County lived in Changganli, Jiankang City, and King Xie of Wuyi Lane was neighbors.

The rise of the Yin clan in the Eastern Jin Dynasty began with Yin Zhi's sons Yin Xian and Yin Rong brothers. It was the two brothers who brought the Chenjun Yin clan into the ranks of the first-class families.

Yin Hao's wife is Chen Jun Yuan, the sister of Yuan Tan. Yin Kang's wife Xie Seng Shao, Xie Shang's daughter, Yin Zhongkan's wife Langya Wang, Wang Lin's daughter, Yin Zhongwen's wife Chen Guohuan, Huan Wen's daughter, Yin Jingren's wife Langya Wang, Wang Mi's daughter.

Emperor Xiaowu of the Song Dynasty concubine Yin, Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty prince Liu Shaofei Yin, the daughter of Yin Chun, the concubine of Liu Xiuren, the king of Shi'an, the daughter of Yin Chong, the wife of Yin Element, Langya Wang, the daughter of Wang Shenglang, the wife of Yin Rui, the daughter of Wang Huan, the daughter of Yin Jun, Princess Yongxing, the daughter of Emperor Wu of Liang.

Yin Hao, Yin Zhongkan and others are good at metaphysics, good at metaphysics, Confucianism, Buddhism, medicine, and a family of heavenly masters.

The more Yin Qingfeng listened, the more numb his heart became, this is a platform cow stepping on a horse. The man married the daughters of the Wang, Xie, Yuan, and Huan clans, and the daughters married into the royal family... It seems that Li Shimin's family is not so good...

But... This Yongxing princess.... The reputation stinks!

Over there, the uncle and housekeeper are still continuing to explain.

Yin Zhi's younger brother's name is Yin Bao, and he is the ancestor of Yin Qiao. After arriving in the Chen Dynasty, the Yin Zhi branch fell, while the Yin Bao branch slowly rose.

Yin did not harm the early Shi Southern Dynasty Liang for Ting Weiping, and the highest official positions were Zhongshulang and Ting Weiqing. Entered the Chen Dynasty and worshiped Si Nongqing, and the Empress Chen was enthroned and appointed to the middle of the matter.

Yin Buyu first served as a soldier in Liang Shangshu of the Southern Dynasty, and later served as General Rong Zhao and King Wuling to consult the army. In the early years of Chengsheng, he was reappointed as Wu Kangling. Later, he joined the army as the advisor of Chen Bomao, the king of Shixing, and concurrently served as the right man of Shangshu, and later changed to the general secretary of the East Palace.

Yin Buyu's brother died early if he didn't doubt, didn't occupy, and didn't Qi. Yin Buyu is the youngest, and he is very respectful in serving his widow and sister-in-law, and he does not enter his private room with all the money he gets. His eldest son, Yin Fantong, was the official scholar Jin Bulang.

After the fall of the Chen Dynasty, Yin Seng Shou migrated to Yongzhou County, Guanzhong. Shi Sui Dynasty, served as secretary.

Yin Buxian, Yin Yingtong and others are famous in Sui for their calligraphy and painting skills.

Yin Buzhan, Yin Buqi have no queen, Yin Fantong has no queen, Yin Qiao has no queen, Uncle Butler and Yin Yuan are Yin Budo's descendants.

Yin Bao's branch began to intermarry with the Langya Yan clan who lived in Changganli from the Northern Dynasty.

Yan Zhitui's wife, Yan Silu's wife is Yin Yingtong's daughter, his third son Yan Qinli's wife is Yin Wenli's daughter, and Yin Wenli's granddaughter is married to Yan Qinli's eldest son Yan Xianfu. However, those who intermarried with the Yan family were all from the Yin Buzhan line.

Yan Zhitui was the first permanent attendant of Xiao Yiyou, the king of Xiangdong, and joined the army with Ximo Cao, and then he was a loose cavalry servant, playing personnel, and was ordered to school the book. The Northern Zhou Dynasty was appointed as the Taishou of the Plains, and later became the Imperial Historian and the abolished prince Yang Yong's bachelor's degree in the Eastern Palace.

Yan Silu is the eldest son of Yan Zhitui, who joined the army at the beginning of the Northern Qi Wei Mansion, and served as a secretary of the East Palace in the Sui Dynasty. Now he joined the army for the Qin Wangfu Chamber.

.......

Yin Qingfeng is not numb now, he is so happy that he is almost crying.

Yan Silu, Yan Qinli, and Yan Xianfu have no impression of him, but he knows who Yan Zhitui and Yan Xiang are!

Langya Yan is a descendant of Confucius's student Yan Hui, and there are children who have become officials in all dynasties, and their family background has basically not declined.

The reason why Yan Zhitui is famous is because he left the book "Yan's Family Motto".

When he tampered with "Zhu Zi's Family Motto" before, he was thinking about how he could take a look at "Yan's Family Motto". Now that he heard that Lao Yan's family is still a relative with him, can he not be excited?

Although it is Yin Buzhan who is married to the Yan family, they are relatives after all, and they have always found an excuse to communicate.

However, it is understandable that the Yan family is not in the same vein as the scenery. Metaphysics? Heavenly Master Dao? For the die-hard Confucianist Yan, the Tao is not the same.

Also, Who is Yan Xiangshi? That's one of the eighteen bachelors! When Li Shimin first established the Tiance Mansion, Yan Xiangshi was in the first place. If it weren't for the fact that his health level has not been good, what Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Chu Liang, Yu Shinan, Yao Silian... Row them all up.

"Numb, no wonder Li Shimin laughed at the master. has such a bullish family and in-law relationship, but he himself doesn't know that anyone will mock him until he cries to death.

But... I don't know if I don't teach~~~ Besides, the master is a 'descendant', and it's understandable that I don't know.... It seems that I have to find a chance to have a relationship with the old Yan family...."

Yin Qingfeng, who was in a good mood, continued to look at the wooden plaques of 'his' ancestors. When he carefully looked at the ranking of Yin Qiao's department, he couldn't help but have a doubt.

The wooden plaque records that Yin Buharm lived for more than eighty years, why did his descendants not only die early, but also have such thin heirs?

The supreme ancestor in this is called Yin Ren, and he is called Ren Yi in modern times. The ancient pronunciation of the word Yin is pronounced yi, and the two words Yin Ren are reversed and his name Ren Yi reads the same, is there any saying in this?

Yin Qingfeng's mind was a little messy. Could it be that it was because of the thin heirs of the Yin family that he let himself come from modern times, and then matched a large number of daughters-in-law, and then let him reproduce many children and grandchildren?

But... has such a bullish family background, why is Yin Yuan so miserable? Moreover, didn't it say that the ancients lived in the same race? Where are the other Yin members? I don't have the impression of it!
