'Everyone, the auspicious time has come. A eunuch bent down and said to Emperor Wuzong, the emperor who had been prepared a long time ago, got up and left, and the rest of the eunuchs and palace maids hugged and followed.

Chang'an City, the emperor was about to go out today, and he didn't go far, not far from Chang'an City. I saw that the pedestrians on the street were empty, kneeling on both sides, and the emperor put out the honor guard out of the city gate, although it was said that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty escaped from the capital not once or twice, but today it is really not.

After leaving the city gate, I arrived at a farmland, which was crowded with people, including the army to maintain law and order, and the civil and military officials who were the audience, as well as the real audience. At this time, these people were all looking forward to it, and when they saw that the emperor had arrived, the people hulala knelt on the ground.

'The family is flat. After Wu Zong got out of the car, he waved his hand to exempt the officials and the people, and then several eunuchs stepped forward and flattened their pants and sleeves for the emperor. Then the emperor went into the field and began to plough it himself.

The plough was already set up in the field, and this plough was very ordinary, unlike some old peasants who thought, and the emperor had to use a gold hoe or plough to plough the fields.

Then in front of the plough was a tame ox, mooing, as if thinking that these people were really boring, didn't they just plough the fields, what kind of formalism they were engaged in, hurry up and finish plowing, it still had something to do.

Then, the emperor helped the plow, and the old peasant in front of him drove the ox, and the ox moved, and the plow was also moved, and Wu Zong followed a few steps, OK, and the ceremony was played. Okay, the reader asked, did the emperor run out to pose for a photo when he was full?

Of course not, but because today is the Neutralization Festival, the emperor will personally go to the field to plough the land, in order to show that he attaches great importance to farming.

What are the three major festivals of modern people? New Year, May Day plus an Eleven, Chinese mainland is like this. In Taiwan, the three major festivals are the Chinese New Year, the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Dragon Boat Festival. It's not that these holidays are particularly common. The only thing that really grows is the New Year, and the rest depends on luck. It is these three major festivals, theoretically the capital should give New Year's gifts, otherwise there should be a bonus or something.

But in the Tang Dynasty, what were the three major festivals? The Zhonghe Festival on the first day of the second lunar month, the Shangsi Festival on March 3, and the Double Ninth Festival on September 9 were the three major festivals of the Tang Dynasty.

Today is the Neutralization Festival, and the emperor wants to plough and reward himself, and give a banquet. Symbolically, a little plough was made, and Emperor Wuzong drove back to the palace to entertain the ministers. As for what the reward is, naturally someone will handle it, and it will be given out a few days ago.

First of all, a gift is to use a cyan cloth bag to distribute melons and fruits to the minister, cyan for the spring of youth, and the people also give each other melons and fruits.

In order to show the harmony with his relatives and neighbors, the emperor gave the emperor a cloth ruler and a ruler, and expressed his importance on dressing, which was called a gift of spring clothes. There are rewards and everything, but only ministers with more than four grades have it.

Chinese, anything can be related to eating, Zhonghe Festival to eat spring cakes, you can call it sun cakes. On this day, in order to seek the capital, it is necessary to sacrifice to the sun god, and in the legend of Houyi shooting the sun, the sun is a three-legged golden crow. Then, it was believed that the rooster crowed to usher in the rising of the sun, so the sun was associated with the rooster bird. In order to worship the sun god, make sun cakes, with chicken-shaped patterns on them, and ask for the sun to shine brightly in spring and illuminate the earth. I don't know if this thing has anything to do with the famous sun cakes in Taichung, Taiwan in the future?

Don't blame the ancients for being superstitious, agricultural activities are very important even in modern times, and modern people have no way to control the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, and it is normal for the ancients to worship the sun.

On the day of the Neutralization Festival, the emperor is very busy, he wants to pose for a photo, he has to spend money on a banquet, and the ministers want to reward their faces, even if the treasury is empty, Emperor Wuzong has to grit his teeth and reward, even if the ministers are dissatisfied, and the emperor is stingy in their stomachs, they must be grateful. So what are the people to do? Just look at Li Chen's little work.

Because I was very busy today, I made an exception and didn't do morning exercise, but got busy first. First of all, it is necessary to clean up the Spring Festival couplets and some ornaments left by the New Year, like the color of the day sticker.

These things, after a month of being exposed to the wind and rain and drenching them, become dull and dirty, and need to be removed. At this time, there is no cleaning team, and they usually burn the garbage in front of the sun.

Li Chen cleared the Spring Festival couplets again, and Xiaohu was leading the dragon. This custom made Li Chen feel very fresh, and he hadn't seen it at all in modern times.

If you lead the dragon, you will lead the small dragon on the first day of February, and lead the big dragon on the second day of February. How to get it? In the early morning, he went to the well to fetch water, and then he had to splash it all the way, implying that he would lead the dragon home. Those who have newborns in the family should place yellow table paper by the well to thank the dragon king and pray for the dragon king's blessing.

In addition to carrying water, it is also necessary to use the ash of the stove pit to scatter it near the wellhead, the water tank, and around the house in the early morning, meaning that the dragon that raises its head will ascend to heaven, or the revived dragon will come to the well, water tank, front and back of the house, to protect itself and eat some other poisonous insects.

These customs are fresh and fresh, and Li Chen will not blindly follow these ancient methods, in Li Chen's opinion, this kind of behavior should be disinfected. Use those ashes to kill some pests, which are harmful to the human body after all, pests are more vulnerable. Using ash to absorb water vapor to keep it dry, as well as using the alkali in the plant ash to kill insects, should be able to effectively maintain environmental hygiene, so Li Chen followed.

In addition to cleaning the environment and some ritual activities, Li Chen was very busy with a few children. Perhaps many people disdain it, thinking that this is feudal superstition, and a traveler, even if he does not take the lead in breaking it, should not do it. However, Li Chen's view is the opposite, this is not only superstition, but also a kind of morality.

On the second day of February, the local people not only drink rice wine, but also use rice wine to worship the land god. Residents and families worship the land god and shrine in their courtyards, and light five pillars of incense to ensure a good harvest. There are also various sacrificial activities such as carrying the statue of the god of the land to tour the village and alleys, and worshipping at the land temple.

Boring and pointless? Wrong, this is moral upbringing. Li Chen remembers a text he read, called Xie Tian. Why thank God? Because there are so many people to thank, I can't thank you, just thank God.

The law is the final bottom line of morality, and if a country falls and has to talk about the law in everything, then the country is almost finished. The law can't be exhaustive, don't look at the Americans, everything talks about the law, many times it seems to us that it is a trivial matter, and the lawsuits of the United States are endless. But America was still a Puritan country by its roots. The same is true for the mainstream culture of society.

If a person is fearless, then there is no bottom line for this person to do things. For the sake of their own interests, they can do everything, and they can also have a clear conscience.

Ten years ****, shattered not by feudal superstition, shattered by Chinese ethics. Feudal superstition is really broken, how can it be revived? Ethics are broken, what laughs at the poor and does not laugh at prostitutes, everything looks at money, for money, you can sell your parents, these are not surprising.

Therefore, Li Chen took his children to do these customs, and followed the customs when he entered the country, in order not to let the children become people who lack virtue without a bottom line.

But some of him still didn't do it, because it really didn't work. Like something holding a horsewhip or a flower blue, worship the door. This kind of activity is said to be a child-seeking activity, Li Chen didn't do it, and he begged for a child... He didn't even get married, what did he ask for?

What are you? According to Xiaohong, this is from the Tao Te Ching. Who wrote the Tao Te Ching, I'm Lao Tzu, wrong, it's Li Er, Li Laozi.

The Li family is developed, so it is natural to find a distant relative with status to help him, and it seems that he is destined to return, and if he finds A, he will find Lao Tzu. The meaning of the people can be explained as the valley, and the reason, Xiaohong explained it for a long time, and he was dizzy and didn't remember it at all. So the author is not cheating on the word count here.

As for why Xiaohong said, of course, Li Chen asked Xiaohong for advice on these activities, and these children didn't have the opportunity to learn what to do during the Neutralization Festival, and for them, the Neutralization Festival is a day when the cold is about to pass and it is much more convenient to find food. And Li Chen is a traveler, where do you understand this.

I've done it dozens of times. Ergou said unhappily, just now the big head yelled in his ear, causing his hand to shake and almost spill the wine.

I rejoice. A little more, a little more. 'Be quiet, I've got wine in my hand, and I can't get out at all.' After Ergou finished speaking, there was a palpitation, and the big head stared at him with burning eyes, you dare to spill the wine, your aunt and you are not finished, and the second dog can only lower his head and concentrate on the wine.

I saw Ergou holding an urn of wine, concentrating on pouring the wine from a trough, and there was a shelf at the end of the trough, so that the wine urn could be placed on the shelf, so Ergou could also control the pouring progress alone.

Then the trough was connected to a cylinder, under which a fire rose and a strong aroma of wine permeated the periphery. A tube is connected to the top of the cylinder, and the pipe extends diagonally to the side, and a small cylinder is connected to the front end.

The two of them are now in a newly built brick room, there are currently three people in it, and the second dog pours wine again, and the big head pays attention to the small cylinder, and the fat ball is so silent that he is still thinking about the fire, and from time to time throws charcoal fire under the cylinder.

When the small cylinder was half full, the second dog stopped pouring wine into it. This small cylinder has about the capacity of a bucket of wine. Waiting until the small cylinder was eight points full, the big head turned on a switch on the big cylinder, put a little water out of the big cylinder, and tasted it

'Almost, nothing smells of alcohol. Then the fat ball did not add charcoal to it, and waited for it to warm slowly, and at last he got wine from the little cylinder, and poured it into an urn next to it, and there were eight or nine such urns beside it.

When the ten were full, the three of them poured the distilled liquor into the large round barrel and repeated the action they had just made.

That's right, Sanxiao is currently making distilled spirits. A few days ago, I asked Xiaohu Shenshen to do things secretly, so naturally he built a distiller. However, isn't it just a distiller, and it needs to be so mysterious? Of course, as for the reasons, let's see the next breakdown.
