Zhou Yan is only 12 years old, this is the first time he has left Bohai to go far away, even if he is accompanied by his father, it is inevitable to be nervous.

Daddy patted him on the shoulder, signaling not to be afraid.

"I'm going to buy some oranges, you don't move here."

Father turned to leave, Zhou Yan didn't stare at his father's back, naturally he couldn't write a moving article, his attention was on the train in front of him, what a huge guy! It's even more spectacular than what is written in the books!

A year ago, the Bohai Sea was connected to the train, but unfortunately the Zhou family's farm was too far away, this is the first time Zhou Yan saw the real train, like a long dragon, across the eyes, spectacular.

Every carriage was like a bottomless pit, people poured in in groups, shouting, shouting, so lively, Zhou Yan's hands gradually broke out of sweat.

At this moment, the father came back with oranges, he picked up his son, and the father and son also got on the train.

The following long journey made Zhou Yan stunned, and he finally had a little understanding of the vastness of the world. Coming out of my hometown, for two whole days, on both sides of the road, there were continuous cornfields, dense, like walking in the ocean, and I woke up several times, and the scene outside did not change. Zhou Yan once suspected that the train had stopped, and it was not until the third day that they entered Shanhaiguan, and the scenery finally changed, and the vast North China Plain appeared in front of him, and Zhou Feng touched his son's head.

"Silly boy, you are blessed, Dad was adrift at sea for more than a month, and it was much worse than now!"

After more than three days, the train slowly drove into Luoyang, Xijing.

At this time, Luoyang was already full of people, and the people were jubilant.

More than 200,000 guests have traveled from overseas alone, not counting the representatives and retinue who participated in the festival.

From the government hall to the peddlers' pawns, they all moved.

The entire sacrificial ceremony was mainly based on Lu Huiqing, and the specific affairs were handed over to Su Zhe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

This can make Su Zhe very busy, sleeping for at most an hour every day, sometimes even having to rotate continuously, and he can't rest for a moment, there are so many things like cow hair, trivial and complicated. In addition to entertaining so many guests, he also had to arrange the entire sacrificial process.

The Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor is located in Xuanyuan Terrace, Qiaoshan, Fangzhou, under the rule of Yan'an Prefecture.

There are ceremonies to worship the Yellow Emperor in all dynasties, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once led an army of 100,000 to the north, specially went to Qiaoshan, to pay tribute to the Yellow Emperor, and then the scale of the sacrifice became larger and larger, until the time of the five dynasties, after the war, the Yellow Emperor's mausoleum was destroyed, Zhao Da decreed that a special fund was allocated to establish the Yellow Emperor's palace temple at the eastern foot of Qiaoshan for future generations to pay homage to the sacrifice.

When Zhao Zhen was in power, he also ordered to plant 1,400 pines and cypresses, and stipulated that the local three households draw one to maintain and clean the Yellow Emperor's mausoleum.

When Youzhou was recovered, the tribute to Yanhuang greatly enhanced the status of the Yellow Emperor's mausoleum.

Every year, countless people come to pay their respects.

And this time the scale of the sacrifice is unprecedentedly grand.

In order to facilitate the arrival of the sacrificial personnel, the imperial court even allocated 2 million yuan to add a double railway line to facilitate transportation. But even so, only 50,000 people can be arranged for this sacrificial ceremony, including 30,000 forbidden troops, and the remaining 20,000.

Most of the people can only worship in the Yanhuang Ancestral Temple in Luoyang.

According to Su Zhe's arrangement, including Zhao Shu, Zhao Ji, Wang Ning'an, and the princes of the political hall, they first paid tribute to the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty, and then set off to Qiaoshan to pay tribute to the Yellow Emperor, and at the same time, held sacrificial activities together in various places.

There is no doubt that this is the grandest activity since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, in addition to the use of foreign troops.

The major affairs of the country are in worship and Rong.

For this ceremony alone, 500,000 people were mobilized, not including those who built temples and held activities in various places.

It's a hassle, it's a toss-up, but from top to bottom, everyone thinks it's worth it!

When the overseas travelers with gray hair and wrinkles on their faces returned, crying bitterly in front of the Yanhuang Ancestral Temple, and when the ignorant teenagers came out of the ancestral temple with excitement on their faces, a special emotion permeated everyone...... That's what it means to belong!

It's very abstract to say, but it's not complicated, for example, when a star announces his girlfriend, his female fans cry so much, they want to die or live, but the female fans' colleagues, parents, relatives, and even this star don't know each other, they must wonder, what kind of wind are you smoking, let alone finding a girlfriend, even if you die, it has nothing to do with you!

This is a kind of character identification, and if you are a student of a certain university, even if you have graduated for many years, as soon as you hear that your alma mater is thriving and ranking higher and higher, you will unconsciously raise the corners of your mouth, and the graduation certificate in your hand is also appreciating. If you stand still and even keep retreating from your alma mater, you will inevitably have a dull old face.

A person has to play many roles in his life and have many belongings, and national belonging is precisely the most important thing.

You may not feel much in normal times, but if you take a look at history, it will be clear that there are dozens of countries in Europe, which is about the same size as China, and there are almost no interruptions in hatred of each other, wars and killings. Even if they are both Slavs, between Russia and Ukraine, they are also facing each other. The difference between the two in language is even far less than the difference between the northern and southern dialects of China, and the appearance is similar, but they can't become a family that loves each other.

Maybe we should really thank Qin Shi Huang, the book is the same text, and the car is on the same track...... Although the south and the north are tuned, we can all read the "Historical Records", recite Li Du's poems, and know the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, a paradise, and the south of the Yangtze River...... This is the understanding and blending, the resonance of national feelings!

In the long history, the one who can best connect everyone's emotions is the ancestors of Huaxia Yanhuang.

Everyone has a common ancestor, flowing the same blood, although separated by oceans, thousands of mountains and rivers, but looking at the bright moon, they are all chasing Chang'e above, and they will not look for any moon goddess...... These days, Xijing seems to be boiling, all kinds of folk performances, storytelling and singing, juggling temple fairs, everything, all make overseas wanderers feel excited, it turns out that everyone's hearts are so close!

The newspaper was in full swing, and almost everyone's hearts were warm.

In this warm atmosphere, after Zhao Shu showed off his exploits to the Emperor Zhao in the ancestral temple, he issued an order to pass on the throne to the crown prince Zhao Ji, and he abdicated as the emperor.

Originally, the alternation of thrones was the most fragile time for the empire, and all parties would take the opportunity to make trouble, but this time it was different, and everyone only had support.

His Majesty fought in the south and the north, and laid down an unprecedented territory, and it is reasonable for him to abdicate and rest and let the crown prince inherit the throne.

The waves were not happy, Zhao Shu seemed very happy, and his thin face had a brilliance.

"Let go of the burden, maybe you can live for a few years!" Zhao Shu sighed.

Gouya'er immediately said: "Your Majesty, don't talk nonsense, you will live a hundred years." ”

Zhao Shu smiled, he suddenly got up and bowed deeply, this move can make the dog's teeth stupid.

"Your Majesty, what are you?"

Zhao Shu smiled, "Don't say it, I know in my heart that you have made great efforts to have today's arrangement." I can't get the best of both worlds. ”

Zhao Shu sighed very much, "The emperors and ministers of the past dynasties are all life and death, even Emperor Taizu has to replace the Chai family, it is not that Taizu is disloyal, it is really a last resort." Zhao Shu was very excited, he clenched his fists, and said proudly: "We did it, we did what the sages of the past generations could not do, come, we are white!" ”

He wanted to drink, but Dogtooth stopped him, "Your Majesty, don't worry, my father is still in the dark, in case he doesn't agree, we can't do anything." ”

Zhao Shu rolled his eyelids, he had the strength of a scoundrel.

"Of course, Master is in charge of you, I have already abdicated, and I am powerless."

Dogtooth snorted, "I knew you would be like this, and I don't want you to bother, just lend your majesty to us!" ”

……

All the staff set off, take a special train, go to Fangzhou, and after a little repair, they will go to the Yellow Emperor Temple.

Along the way, Zhao Ji was surrounded by Su Zhe and more than a dozen bachelors, from morning to night, without a moment of rest, making the little guy doze off when he stood up, his eyes were red, and he was full of tears.

Finally, Zhao Ji, who was devastated, couldn't bear it anymore and ran to Wang Ningan to cry.

"Master, help, save the disciple!"

Wang Ningan was caught off guard, and seeing that his apprentice was really pitiful, he could only call Su Zhe over.

"Ziyou, can you cut some projects, Your Majesty is too young to afford it."

Su Zhe spread his hands, "Brother-in-law, we also feel sorry for Your Majesty and don't want him to suffer, but this ceremony is too important, even the Yin Shang Continent has a lot of people, and the entire sacrificial link can't go wrong at all, otherwise it won't become a laughing stock for the ages!" The emperor is too poor to bear the toss, so he passed the throne to His Majesty early, but His Majesty is young, and his memory is not good, it is difficult for us to do ......"

Wang Ningan snorted, "What did you do earlier, how can such a big thing be done without a saint presiding?" You don't have a few backup plans for you? ”

"Of course I'm ready, it's just a little difficult."

"What difficulty?"

"Your Majesty and the Emperor Taishang can't preside, you have to find someone to replace you, at the moment in the clan, only Zhao Zongjing, the king of Dongping County, has this prestige, I don't know if he can ......"

"Can't!"

Zhao Zongjing was coming out of the toilet, and when he heard him mentioned, he immediately refused, and said with a bitter face: "Ziyou, Erlang saw it, it's only been half a day's work, I've been to the toilet 5 times, I can't help it, I'm old, I can't stand it." ”

Zhao Zongjing's reason was so strong that even Wang Ningan was speechless.

Who's supposed to replace it?

Zhao Ji raised his head, "Master, can you take the disciple for you?" ”

Su Zhe immediately said: "Your Majesty, as the prime minister, King Qin is highly respected, but he can preside over the ceremony for His Majesty." ”

"That's great!" Zhao Ji slapped his face, and said pitifully: "Master, you can't bear to watch your disciple make a fool of yourself?" You just say yes! ”

Wang Ning'an frowned, in the past sacrificial ceremonies, not to mention that the emperor didn't have to go, even the court officials didn't need it, and it was enough for Langzhong of the Ministry of Rites to gather with local officials.

However, this time it is different from the past, and it is to connect all localities and establish common national feelings...... Speaking of which, only the Huaxia patriarch can bear it, how can he replace it?
