The dance is a dance performed on the first day of the first lunar month. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info sacrifice is called the Wu sacrifice. The Wu sacrifice originated in the Western Zhou Dynasty and is the most solemn ceremony in the Spring Festival.

It is recorded in "Zhou Li": "Fang Xiang's palm is covered with bear skin, gold four eyes, Xuanyi and Zhu clothes, holding **** shields, handsome and handsome, and the room is used to drive away the epidemic." "To put it bluntly, it's wearing a bear skin, four eyes, wearing exaggerated clothes, and dancing with a group of exaggerated people with a contradictory card, in this way to dispel the plague spirit.

The ability of ancient people to recognize nature and transform nature was very limited, so there is still a large market for the theory of ghosts and gods, and the people performing in the Nu sacrifice are exaggeratedly dressed, the dance is atmospheric, the momentum is magnificent, it is very ornamental, and the omen is also good, so the Nu sacrifice can continue to develop with the times.

In the Han Dynasty, there were more and more types of Wu sacrifices, such as the state held called Da Da or Guo Wu, and there were even "military Wu" when the army went out, and the folk Wu style, Wu customs, and Wu art were becoming more and more perfect. Held once a year in the widest street of the imperial capital, on the first day of the new year, the festival aims to ward off plague spirits and keep the year safe.

Since it is the highest standard of the sacrifice, the scene is needless to say, absolutely incomparably grand, at this time the entertainment culture is scarce, the annual sacrifice is definitely the most concerned by the people of the imperial capital ceremony, plus the Son of Heaven who lives deep in the palace will also watch the sacrifice in the gatehouse on the main gate of the palace, if the location is well chosen, you can even see the Huang Yuan of the Son of Heaven, a glimpse of the face of the sky, that is the greatest glory of the people in the world.

As for the civil and military officials, as long as the officials above 2,000 stone also have to watch the sacrifice with the Son of Heaven, and those with low official positions will definitely drag their children and daughters to join in the fun.

For people like Liu Ye who have just moved to the imperial capital, they will not miss the exclusive benefits of enjoying this kind of capital people.

"Pawn this kid.... When I went home, it seems that I have to look for him, but it's just that it's the New Year, and it's inconvenient for me to go out. Cao Pi thought for a while, returned to the study in the courtyard, took out a piece of Zuobo paper, and wrote on it in Han Dynasty font.

To tell the truth, Cao Pi has not practiced calligraphy, the writing skills of this calligraphy are inherited from the original learning content in this body, ten-year-old children, even if they practice calligraphy in their mother's womb, it is not much better, not to mention that Zuo Bo paper is still a luxury in this era, and children have to practice from the knife and pen. So Cao Pi's handwriting is really not good.

But he wasn't worried at all, because for him, as long as it could be understood, not to mention that the object of reading was a rough man like Dianman, and it didn't matter whether the words were good or bad.

After densely writing two pieces of Zuobo paper, Shu'er, who asked the ink-grinding Shu'er, called Hui'er to the study and said, "After these two Zuobo papers are dried, you hide them closely, take them out of the house, go to Boying, hand them to him, and let him act according to what he says on the paper." ”

After Hui'er agreed, Cao Pi left the study, returned to his room, lay down on the kang, and prepared to take a nap, he felt that his work this year should be completed, and it was time to have a good year.

The last few days of the year were spent in a peaceful and busy manner, and on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Cao Cao held a banquet in the main hall of Cao Fu, gathered his wives and concubines and children, put on the highest wine and dishes of the Han Dynasty, invited the best musicians today, and everyone ate and listened to music together, the atmosphere was noisy and festive.

However, although the wife and concubine and the children are in the same hall to drink and feast, but they are separated by screens, Cao Cao's position is on the left side of the upper head, that is, to the left of the next head, Cao Cao's sons are on the left, and now the oldest son is Cao Pi, and most of the other sons who participate in the banquet are about the same age as Cao Zhi, only about five years old, so there are servants waiting next to the table. Of course, Cao Pi also has it, and it is Shu'er who is waiting at the table.

The first person on the right is Cao Pi's old lady Bian's family, and the next head is other concubines and daughters, women in many places in the Han Dynasty are not allowed to go to the main table, but first, this is a family banquet, and secondly, Cao Cao is not a person who follows the rules, as can be seen from the content of "meritocracy" in his order to seek merit. Because of his unruliness, there is a scene of wives and concubines and children having fun together.

But on the other hand, Cao Cao still made a compromise treatment, and put a screen in the middle so that the two sides could not look at each other, which guy was ranked according to the left and right of the man, which can be regarded as showing that he is not completely indifferent to the etiquette.

Between the banquets, there are musicians who play the gonghou and ring the chime. There are maidservants on the wine and food, everyone eats and drinks very happily, the atmosphere is very harmonious Cao Pi counted, now Cao Cao has seven, in addition to Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi three sons-in-law There are also four concubines, all of whom are little children, and there are servant girls watching, Cao Pi did not take the initiative to get to know them, the difference between the concubines and the concubines is like the difference between the abyss, even if it is a blood brother, it is possible to be a stranger for life.

Because of the screen partition, Cao Pi couldn't see how many concubines Cao Cao had, but between the shadows, he could see more than a dozen shadows, except for the two short shadows, because it should be Cao Cao's daughter, and if it was a wife and concubine, it would definitely be polio. There are also servant girls waiting at the desk, so Cao Cao's concubine room should only have five or six people, which is really not much for Cao Mengde, who is in the prime of life and worships the third duke.

Presumably, now Cao Cao's strong enemies are looking around, and he is not in the mood to ask too many wives.

At this time, the banquet had been going on for a long time, everyone was full of wine and food, Cao Cao suddenly drank the wine and laughed: "Isn't it beautiful to call Gongda here and now, and use poetry to help the fun." "When you are full of wine and food, you will recite poems and compose endowments, and in Cao Pi's opinion, it is similar to everyone who eats in later generations, and goes to KTV.

Gongda's surname is Xun, and he is called Xun You. is also a member of the Yingchuan Xun family, although he is quite old, but his generation is young, and the 40-year-old Xun Yu is still the nephew of Xun Yu, who is only 34 years old. This man is not only resourceful, but also good at improvising poetry, which is why Cao Cao said so.

In fact, it is a joke that Cao Cao's brain is talking about, a room of wives and concubines and children, there are few people who know who Gongda is, and Cao Pi knows him because he has watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. As for being good at improvisational poetry, it has not been written in history, but Xun Yue, a fellow clan, mentioned it to Cao Pi when he was lecturing.

Just after Cao Cao said this, a very immature voice sounded behind Cao Pi: "Father.... Children can make poems! ”

Cao Pi doesn't have to look back to know that it is Cao Zhi, children love to express that it is a natural phenomenon, but if this kid can write poetry at the age of five, he is definitely a genius, if the poem is not bad, then Cao Cao, who is also a poet, will definitely be impressed by Cao Zhi.

Is the imaginary enemy about to become a real adversary? That's coming too fast.....

"Oh? In that case, I might as well chant it~" Cao Cao turned his head to look at Cao Zhi and smiled.
