In the early autumn morning, there is already a bit of mist, mixed with the water vapor in the Fujiang River, making the whole small mountain village as ethereal and leisurely as if you are in a picture scroll. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

This is the fifth day after Yang Ming returned to his hometown, and the Yang family has already prepared breakfast, waiting for a special day for the Yang family after the meal.

Crown Gift!

Yes, it is the crown ceremony~

And it's Yang Ming's crown gift!

For Liu Fuzi, although Yang Ming's identity has not yet been implemented, it does not prevent him from being hot from the heart, when Yang Ming came to visit three days ago, he was laughing and painful, and his spirit was in high spirits all afternoon.

He has been taking the imperial examination for decades, but he didn't expect his ambitions and wishes to be realized in the hands of his students, and when he learned that Yang Ming was about to go to Beijing to participate in the college examination, although he had the heart to go together, even if he looked at the panorama of the capital, it was not bad, but it was a pity that Yang Ming needed to whip up quickly even if he took him, and if he was taken with him, he would obviously not be able to catch up with the college examination.

However, although he couldn't go to the capital in person, it didn't hinder Liu Fuzi's passion, but he was already about to become a disciple of the people, and he didn't pay a crown salute, so he couldn't accept it anyway.

The so-called crown ceremony is actually the coming-of-age ceremony of ancient Chinese men, especially after the Song Dynasty, whether it is a peddler or a family gatekeeper, men need to be crowned when they become adults.

Of course, this so-called crown is actually a hat, and the style of the hat varies with different statuses, such as officials have official hats, ordinary gentry wear foreign hats, scholars have square scarves, and even fishermen or villagers will get a rag to wrap their hair.

So in ancient times, the hat was also a symbol of status.

It's just that the crown ceremony is rarely held, unless it is a dignitary or a fame, and the crown ceremony is particularly important, and the average poor people can't even eat and wear, how can they waste energy and financial resources on this matter?

However, Yang Ming is different, he is first a scholar, and then he is still a lifter who is about to obtain an identity, since he has done a lifter, how can he do it as usual? Therefore, whether it is Master Liu or the old lady of the Yang family, they all feel that it is natural to hold a crown ceremony for Yang Ming, and even the old patriarch is actually shouting about the grand event of Guanghua Village.

Although the news that Yang Ming is about to become a person did not let her know, but the things that have happened in the Yang family are well known, in the eyes of the old patriarch, since Yang Ming has achieved the first place in the county examination, it is only a matter of time before it goes further, the old Yang family has a scholar, and it is more likely that since Li Xiucai, another big family has risen, and the people surnamed Yang in Guanghua Village have begun to get busy.

The period of the crown ceremony is set in a hurry because of the time is set three days later, followed by the precept (three days before the crown ceremony, the master sacrifices to the ancestors in the ancestral hall) also visited the ancestral hall early, the ancients attached great importance to the ritual law is simply deep in the bone marrow, before visiting the ancestral hall, you must also burn incense and bathe, although Yang Ming remembered that he had entered the ancestral hall when he was a child before, and there seemed to be no such rules, why did he suddenly lock it up?

It wasn't until after the visit that the old patriarch said to Yang Ming that today's etiquette is new, since Yang Ming's family has now grown, it is obviously not good compared to the previous rules, and the ancestors will be happy.

Yang Ming didn't care about this bit of courtesy money, even if he put a few more big pigs' heads on the table, how much could it cost? The whole person was pressed by a group of old women into the grapefruit water that had not been barbecued for a long time, and it was simply a murderous rhythm. Until the morning, Yang Ming still felt a pain in his body, he must have been burned yesterday......

The place where the crown ceremony was held was in Liu Fuzi's house, that is, the small courtyard behind the village school, and now it was already overcrowded, not only people in the village but also people from other villages also came, of course, for them, holding the crown ceremony is actually a play, this thing is rare!

When Yang Ming and his entourage came to the small courtyard, Master Liu and his wife had been waiting for a long time! Of course, there are also Li Xiucai and Li Daoyuan and Li Xianzun of Hongcheng.

In particular, Li Xianzun must arrive, he is different from Liu Fuzi, Liu Fuzi can be said to be Yang Ming's enlightenment teacher, but Li Daoyuan can be said to be Yang Ming's mentor. He not only took the first county test in Yang Ming's children's examination, but also included Yang Ming in his disciples, although he could not teach him personally, but the few books he taught and the essence of his heart were not passed on!

Of course, the most important point is that Yang Ming's words are given by him!

It is said that Li Daoyuan is still too Meng Lang, according to etiquette, he should first crown the salute and then give the word, he is good, when he was in Hongcheng, this master and apprentice title must come down when he gave Yang Mingzile the word.

However, a reader is a reader, and often everything that does not conform to logic can cover up the past.

For example, Su Dongpo, who is seventy or eighty years old and married a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, can actually be called a pear flower pressed begonia, when Yang Ming became famous in the capital, he Li Daoyuan's early word gave it a beautiful talk, not only will no one say anything about him, but it will even attract applause!

Washing, scarf in the hall, standing in the main hall, with the curtain (curtain) enclosing the room in the northeast of the hall, the Ming Dynasty is dreaming of Chen Guanfu.

Yang Ming did not sit down, today she is the protagonist, standing in the middle, and at this time the crown ceremony officially began!

The master and mother held a tray, holding a set of scholarly shirts, with a flat square scarf, this is a scholar's decoration! The second is the shirt, belt, boots, soap shirt, big belt, shoes, ctenophore, sweep, take everyone to sit up before the display in the east of the east room, with the north as the head.

Wine pourers and plates are also displayed on the north side of the crown on the table.

The heads, hats, crowns, and scarves were to be served on a plate, covered with a cloth, and displayed on a table under the west steps.

As for the deacon, it was naturally Master Liu, who stood next to Yang Ming, and then the Yang family's children, relatives, and child servants were behind him, lined up, facing west, and north was up.

The rest of the guests, praisers, such as Li Xiucai and others, were dressed outside the gate, facing east. The liker is on the right side of the guest, a little back from the place.

At this time, Liu Fuzi lit three incense, and after worshipping the master, he wished Yang Ming and said: "On the auspicious moon and day, the first plus yuan is served, the young ambition is abandoned, Shun Er becomes virtuous, and the longevity is tested Weiqi, and the blessing is introduced." ”

"Thank you!" Yang Ming only felt that he was like a puppet at his mercy.

At this time, Liu Fuzi put on a scarf for Yang Ming.

Immediately after Li Daoyuan turned over, he grabbed Yang Ming's right hand with his left hand and moved to the east room, took off his four (plus 癸 next to his clothes) shirt, changed into a deep coat, enlarged his belt, accepted shoes, went out of the room, was positive, southward, and stood for a long time.

After that, walk back from the lobby. Zhu Zhi said: "Jiyue Lingchen, Nai Shen Erfu, Jiner Weiyi, Shushun Erde, Meishou Yongnian, enjoy Hu Fu." ”

Yang Ming knelt down again, plus, Xing, reset, crowned, went to the east room alone, took off his deep clothes, changed into a soap shirt and leather belt, tied his shoes, and stood out of the room.

At this time, Yang Ming was still looking new, wearing a sky-blue scholarly shirt, a flat-topped square scarf, and soap boots under his feet.

The crown gift is actually almost at this point, and there is one last procedure at this time, thank you!

The person who thanked the gift must be the elder of the venerable clan, so the old patriarch became the director of the thank you ceremony, and he said goodbye to everyone with a smile on his face: "Yang Ming, the son of the Yang family, is crowned today, and he dares to see it." ”

Yang Ming hurriedly stood between the two steps again and bowed again.

After that, there were actually things such as seeing the elder, giving words, and giving coins, but Yang Ming had already been given the word Zile by Li Daoyuan, so it was considered a gift.

"Zile, now that you have finished the crown ceremony, the future will be different from the past, this time you only need to work hard to enter the Beijing Academy, if the sky does not fulfill people's wishes, you must not be discouraged, as the so-called freezing three feet is not a day of cold, as long as you can study with peace of mind at your age, there will be a chance in the future!" Liu Fuzi looked at Yang Ming in front of him and said seriously, the imperial examination is not as beautiful as imagined, the world only sees the success of the spring breeze, but there are a few people who see the decline after the name falls to Sun Shan, he is not actually optimistic about Yang Ming's trip to the academy examination, although Yang Ming is indeed talented and brilliant now, but this does not mean that he can be named on the gold list.

PS: Today's chapter is sent, the crown gift is a treasure of the Chinese nation, and now there are few people who know it, and there are many processes that have been deleted from writing this chapter!
