Section 538 Yanyi
(10) Trilogy: The process of the third firing is basically the same as that of the second ejaculation, except that there is musical accompaniment during the reshooting. The musician plays "Su Yu" in "The Book of Songs: Zhaonan", and the beat of the music should be played evenly and consistently. The priest announced in the hall: Whoever does not shoot according to the rhythm of the drum shall not be counted! The procedure for the third and second rounds is the same, first by the triple coupling ratio, and then by the subject-object coupling ratio. Whoever hits the bull's-eye to the beat of the drum will draw a basket of chips and throw it to the ground, and finally tell the guests the result of the game: the winner wins a number of chips, or the two sides shoot. The three couples, the guest, and the host go to the hall in order, and the loser shooter drinks the penalty wine. This is the end of the triple shot.
(11) Travel reward: It is a repertoire of archery, and the ancient rites require starting from a person with a high status and paying for wine at a time. We recommend that participants give each other tea or water, regardless of their status. Drinks are preceded by mutual salutes, and the band plays a loop of music to add to the fun.
(12) Sending off guests: When the guests get up to say goodbye and walk to the west steps, the musicians play the music of "陔", the guests go out of the venue, the participants are with them, and the host bows outside the door again. Then, all the participants bowed to each other and said goodbye. Finally, the host organized the relevant personnel to clean up the utensils and clean the shooting grounds.

(47) Yanyi
The Yan of Yanli is the meaning of feast, and righteousness is leisure and rest. Yan ceremony is the ancient Han aristocratic in their spare time, for the sake of contact and the feelings of subordinates to feast and drink. The Yan ceremony can be held for a specific object, such as a minister returning from an envoy, a newly meritorious subordinate official, a hired dignitary, etc., or it can be a banquet for ministers without special reasons. It can be seen that Yan Li is the righteousness of ordering the monarch and the ministers to respect each other.
In ancient times, the official position established by Zhou Tianzi was called Shuzi. The concubine was responsible for managing a special army composed of the sons of princes, ministers, doctors, and scholars, mastering the precepts and teachings against them, discerning their ranks, and determining their thrones. If there is a major matter in the country, he will lead them to report to the prince, and the prince can command as he wants. If there is a war, they are given military vehicles and armor, organized into ranks, and officers at all levels are appointed to manage them in accordance with military law. Because they belonged directly to the crown prince, they no longer accepted Sima's recruitment. When the state had things such as conscription, it formed these noble children into separate formations to enable them to cultivate their moral character and learn Taoism. The spring gathers them at the university, and the fall gathers them at the Shooting Palace, where their grades are examined to decide on promotion or dismissal.
The meaning of the princes holding the Yan ceremony is: the monarch stands in the southeast of the east step, facing the south to make a gesture to the king, so that the secretary advances, the secretary advances slightly, and then faces the west; The king beckoned the doctor to come forward, and the doctor also went slightly north, standing facing north. This is to determine the position of the ministers. The king's seat is located above the eastern steps, which means that the king's seat is the main seat. The king stood alone on his seat, facing west, which meant that he did not dare to match him. It is the relationship between the monarch and the minister and the guest and the host to sit down, which means that the number of salutes used is to drink and have fun.
The king asked the zaifo to toast the guests on his behalf, because no one dared to salute the king. Don't take the minister as a guest, but take the doctor as a guest, this is because the minister is already noble enough, and now if he is a guest, he will be suspected of being a rival to the monarch, so this means to avoid suspicion. When entering the court as a guest of his courtiers, the king has to walk down the steps to greet him, which is a courtesy of treating him as a guest.
During the trip, the monarch first raised his glass to the guests to drink, and then the guests who drank the king's special gift had to go down to the hall to bow to the monarch before drinking. The king humbly gave in, and the ministers went to stop it, so the guests and ministers went up to the church to worship the head again and complete the salute. This is the number of courtesies that a subordinate should have. The monarch uses the repetition as a reply, which is to show that the monarch should have the number of courtesies, and the subordinates have done their best to serve the country, and the monarch must use the title and the fortune in return, so that the subordinates will be willing to do their best to make meritorious contributions, so that the country is peaceful and the monarch is peaceful.
The courtesy is all answered, which means that the ruler will not let his subordinates serve in vain. The king must explain the right way to guide the people, and the people will reap the harvest by following the guidance, and then the state will take a tenth of it as a tax, and the result will be that the king will have enough money and the people will not have a need. So the top and bottom are harmonious and intimate, and there is no mutual resentment. The upper and lower levels are harmonious and intimate, and there is no resentment against each other, which reflects the role of etiquette. This is the righteousness of the monarch and the ministers. Therefore, Yan Li is used to show the righteousness of the monarch and the minister.
The arrangement of the Yanli seats is: the guest seat is between the door and the window, the seat of the secretary is on the east side of the seat of the guest seat, and the seat of the small secretary is on the west side of the seat of the guest seat, which is second to the secretary of state; The doctor's seat is to the west of Xiaoqing, and it is second to Xiaoqing; There were no seats in the hall, and the scholars and concubines stood in turn at the foot of the east staircase. When drinking, the Zaifu is the master on behalf of the monarch. The ruler first offered wine to the king, and after the king had drunk it, he raised his glass to the people present. Then the butcher offered wine to Qing, and after he had drunk it, he had the ability to persuade those present to drink; Then the butcher offered wine to the doctor, and after the doctor had drunk it, he raised his glass to the people present. Then the butcher offered wine to the priests, and after drinking it, he raised his glass to those present to drink. Finally, the wine was offered to the concubine. The delicacies displayed in front of the banquet: in front of the king and the guests, meat, jerky, wine, these are all available; In front of the banquet of the doctor, there is dried meat, fine wine, and no meat; Below the taxi, there are only jerky and fine wine. There is dignity and humility in the seats, there is a priority in the offering of wine, and how many delicacies there are, all of which are used to show that there is a difference between the noble and the low.
(48) Employment
The meaning of the appointment: the lord is the prince of the prince, and the secretary is sent to hire seven messengers; The lord is the prince of the marquis, and the secretary is sent to hire five agents; The prince is the prince of the son, and the secretary is sent to hire three intermediaries. This is to show the nobility and cheapness. The guests lined up, standing one by one, and then conveyed the order of the king, which was a sign that the gentleman had great respect for the people he respected, and did not dare to be simplistic. After the guest resigned three times before conveying the greetings of the king, after three times of humility before entering the temple gate with the rejector, after entering the door, the lord and the monarch exchanged three salutes before coming to the hall steps, before ascending to the hall, each other humbled each other three times, and then the lord took the lead in climbing the steps, and the guests continued to climb the steps. These are expressions of respect and humility.
