The officials concerned were ordered to do no earthwork work, never open the cover, do not let the roof of the house be exposed, and do not mobilize a large number of laborers to work to seal the closure of yin qi.
If the lid of the hiding place is opened and a large number of laborers are mobilized to work, the earth's qi will leak out, and this is called the opening of the heaven and the earth to seal the house where all things are hidden.
In this year, all kinds of dormant animals will die, and the people will also be infected with epidemic diseases and cause deaths, and this month is called "Changyue"

This month, if a farmer has uncollected crops, or domestic animals such as winning horses and cattle that have been allowed to run around, others can take them away, and the government will not ask about it.
In the mountains and forests, there are places where the people can pick plants and fruits and hunt birds and beasts. If there is a person who embezzles the fruits of the labor of others, he must be punished and never forgiven.
This month, the day is the shortest, the yin energy is the strongest, and the yang energy is also generated, and the two form a fighting momentum, and the vitality of various creatures also begins to move.

The revered emperor is the emperor of Shuide, and the god worshiped is the water official Xuanming.
Animals that go well with water are mesozoa.
The five tones that match the water are feathers, and the corresponding rhythm of the month is Dalu.
The number of water is six.
The five flavors that go well with water are salty, and the five smells are rest.
In the five rituals, the gods are sacrificed, and the kidneys are used as honorable items in the sacrifices.
(Water virtue is one of the five virtues that the ancient yin and yang family called the emperor ordained.)
According to the "Historical Records", Qin Shi Huang deduced according to the order of evolution of the five virtues, believing that the Zhou Dynasty obtained the water virtue, and the Qin Dynasty replaced the fire virtue of the Zhou Dynasty, following the law of the five elements of mutual growth and victory, water overcomes fire, and the Qin Dynasty should be the beginning of water virtue; So Qin Shi Huang changed the first month of the year, and a group of ministers entered the court to celebrate in early October; The clothes and festival flags all advocate black; The number is six as the standard, and the crown is six inches; The chariot was six feet wide, six feet was one step, and six horses were used for driving; Change the river to Deshui as the beginning of water virtue; He is tough and resolute in government, violent and harsh, deciding everything according to law, mean and severe, without benevolence and kindness, without warmth and morality, and believes that this is in line with the principle of the evolution of the five virtues.
Therefore, the legal system was urgently strengthened, and criminals who had been imprisoned for a long time were not pardoned.
(Qin Dynasty water virtue is a virtue that the royal family deduced from the Yellow Emperor as their ancestor.)
The derivation process is as follows: Huangdi Mude→ Shaohao Huode→ Zhuan Tude→ Emperor Yu Jinde→ Emperor Yao Shuide→ Emperor Shun Mude→ Xia Yu Huode→ Shang Tang Tude→ Zhou Wen Wang Jinde→ Qin Shuide.
Shuide advocates black, so Qin's dress and flag are all black.
It is recorded in the Book of Han that the Qin Dynasty changed the Zhou Dynasty and was the era of obtaining water virtue; During the Spring and Autumn Period, Qin Wengong went out hunting and obtained the black dragon, which was the Rui Zhao of Water Virtue; So Qin renamed the Yellow River Deshui, took October in winter as the beginning of the year, the color advocated black, the scale took six as the number, the sound advocated Da Lu, and the political affairs advocated the decree.
