(7) "Wine Zheng/Palm"
Liquor is in charge of the decree on liquor, and the materials for making liquor are granted to liquor according to the system. When making sake for official purposes, it is also necessary to give the sake brew materials according to the system. In ancient times, according to the turbidity of the wine, it was divided into five grades, which were collectively called Wuqi, and later Wuqi generally referred to wine. The five qi are divided into: one is pan qi, the second is 醴 (lǐ) qi, the third is ang qi, the fourth is ti (tí) qi, and the fifth is shen qi. Panqi wine is the most turbid in color, with foam on it, Liqi is sweet wine, Angqi is white wine, Tiqi is probably a wine with color, and Shenqi is probably a relatively clear wine.
It is necessary to distinguish the names and types of three types of sake, one is sake, the second is sake, and the third is sake. Seshu refers to new sake brewed in winter and spring, old sake is probably old sake, and sake is a nutritious drink sake. Wine is exactly what it takes to distinguish the names and types of four beverages: the first is a clear drink, the second is a medicinal drink, the third is a syrup drink, and the fourth is a porridge drink. The wine is responsible for discerning their thickness, providing the four drinks and the furnishings of the three wines that the king needs, as well as the drinks and wine for the queen and the prince.
At the time of the sacrifice, the wine needs to be supplied according to a fixed system of five qi and three wines to fill eight wine bottles. When performing the Great Sacrifice, the three wines need to be added three times; During the ongoing sacrifice, the three wines need to be added twice; During the small sacrifice, the three wines are added once. Every time you add wine, you should have a certain number of spoons. Qi wine does not need to be added, and when it is poured into the bottle, there is a certain amount.
The wine is in charge of supplying the wine that the king needs to give to the guests, and the queen is serving the drinks that the queen needs to give to the guests, that is, unfiltered medical drinks and porridge drinks, and then the wine is sent to the people. When the king held a banquet and drinking ceremony, he would personally deliver the wine that he expected to be used. In the grand banquet of guests, when entertaining scholars and concubines, and entertaining the elderly and orphans, the wine is responsible for supplying the required wine, and there is no fixed number of spoons. The wine was responsible for supplying the wine that the king had rewarded his courtiers, and all of this had to be carried out according to a certain system. When serving liquor, if there is a system to rely on, it must be granted according to the ticket book.
