"Yes, when I was a child, my grandfather told me that if I was rude, I had to apologize like this and ask for forgiveness. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 I nodded and said seriously, without the hippie smile I had just had.

“…… Did you learn something about these things, so you rushed to the rescue? That Deng Lao frowned and said, "It's just similar, do you know the etiquette system of this ancient ceremony?" ”

"This is what my grandfather taught me since I was a child, if this old gentleman doesn't believe me, please ask." I nodded.

Deng Lao frowned and looked at me twice, and then asked, "When you salute, why do you have your left hand under and your right hand on top?"

I crossed my hands and said, "There is an agreement in the ancient rites: the earth is on the left, the sky is on the right, the heavens are to cover it, and the earth is to cover it: it means that the heavens and the earth are the witnesses. ”

"And what does it mean to touch the back of your hand with your forehead?" Deng Lao continued to ask.

"Heaven and earth are witnesses, and they are rude under them, and they are at the forefront of the bottom: the forehead is the evidence, and they swear to heaven and earth, and they offend your courtesy, the so-called circle."

Deng Lao's eyes widened, he looked at me with a shocked expression, and then continued to ask, "Then what does it mean to bend your knees at the same time."

"Kneeling on the ground is the mother of the earth, kneeling to the sky is kneeling in the sky, and kneeling means kneeling to worship the sky, and the world is the proof."

While answering that old Deng's question, I complained to my grandfather in my heart: "It's so complicated to do a salute, so many ways? Grandpa, were you tired at that time? ”

"Etiquette is for others to see, you just have to bow well!" My grandfather said very seriously.

I could only stick out my tongue secretly, and a snickering came from my ears: it was my aunt's laughter.

After listening to what I said, Deng Lao nodded with emotion, looking at me with a completely different look.

"I didn't expect that there are still people who know ancient rites...... It's a rarity. Young man, are you really the concierge of this lion boy figure? Deng Lao looked at me and asked with blazing eyes.

"I'm a concierge and today is my first day at work. Minister Tu values me very much for letting me be the concierge of this lot, and I am really grateful to her, but on my first day at work, this place is a little too big and I feel a little dizzy around! I have three thatched houses at home, and this is the first time I've entered such a big house! That's why it's late, Minister Tu, I'm really sorry, this kind of thing happened on the first day of work. ”

I bent down again to apologize as I spoke, and when I said the three thatched huts, there was a burst of laughter all around.

Everyone looked at Minister Tu with a smile, and Minister Tu really deserved to be a genius in marketing, seeing that the situation had been completely reversed, she immediately walked up directly and patted me lightly on the shoulder, and said with a smile in a very pleasant tone: "It's okay, it's such an important task to go to work for the first time, everyone will be more nervous, next time you can pay attention not to be late!" ”

"Yes!" I answered immediately.

"So young man, why are you wearing such clothes? Don't you have time to change your clothes? When that old Deng saw Minister Tu pat me on the shoulder, he seemed to remember this matter again, and immediately asked.

"That's right: Minister Tu asked me to change into the same clothes as them." I pointed at He Longjun and said.

"But I think it's very inappropriate to be dressed like this and stand next to this statue."

"Oh? Why? Deng Lao looked at me with a smile and asked.

"This dress...... It doesn't match the temperament of this artifact, so I think it's better to wear my own clothes. ”

"Incompatible? Why? ”

"This lot is called the Lion Boy Face, in order to commemorate the Hongding Emperor at the age of 90, his general Bai Yue led 70,000 Baiyue Legion to conquer An Xinglan, so this thing itself has a heroic atmosphere: the founding emperor of the Yanrun Dynasty, the Hongding Emperor, conquered in all directions and laid an immortal foundation, and this statue can become the representative of the southern emperor of the Yanrun Dynasty."

"But what many people don't know is that in addition to the domineering spirit of the founding emperor, but more importantly, it also represents a kind of commemoration of the Hongding Emperor to the soldiers who cast the foundation of the empire: when the Lion Boy Clan was conquered, although there was something out of the sky and the like, the main reason why the battle could be won was because the White Moon Legion was brave and not afraid of sacrifice: it is said that less than 50,000 people in the White Moon Legion could return to the imperial capital alive in the end."

"After General Baiyue returned to the court, he presented a table of injuries to Emperor Hongding, and the injury table said: 'The blood of tens of thousands of soldiers casts the boundary for the empire, and the blood stains An Xinglan, because it is located in the south and is hot and humid, the corpse can be decomposed within three days after death and the bones cannot be preserved, and the corpses of the soldiers who died cannot be transported back, and the soul has nowhere to return!' ”

After the Hongding Emperor took the throne, in addition to annotating the doubling of the death compensation on the injury table, he also wrote a sentence.

"The soul of the soldier has returned. The soldiers live up to me, and I will not forget them! ”

"Then, the Hongding Emperor ordered the construction of such a statue, and it was rumored that it was placed in his own mausoleum to let the soul of the soldier be with him, but now this statue has been found in the Southern Province: I guess that maybe the Hongding Emperor did not put this thing into his tomb, but let this lion boy face like the foundation of the empire, forever in the south, so this statue actually represents the meaning of the foundation of the empire!"

"So, I think, since the Emperor Hongding didn't put this thing in his tomb, why do we, the descendants, need to wear such clothes to introduce this thing in a serious way? Who finally collected this thing, all in order to inherit the spirit of the Hongding Emperor: once the success of the bones, so many heroes and heroes in history, can be like the Hongding Emperor, after the king of the world, can still write 'The soldiers live up to me, I will not forget them'? ”

That old Deng looked at me and nodded deeply.

"It's rare...... My old man has studied the Hongding Emperor all his life, and I never thought that this thing can be interpreted like this, what kind of place are you? What is your name? How right? ”

"I'm sorry old man: I am from Qingxi Town, I am an orphan, I was adopted by my grandfather since I was a child, it is said that I was lying in a newspaper at that time, and the newspaper was an advertisement, so I called it this name." I touched my head and said.

The people below all laughed again.

"I see, what kind of person is your grandfather? Can you take me to meet him? By the way, I am Deng Wenqiang, a professor of the Department of History of Yuyuan University. ”

"This is a forgiveness: my grandfather has been dead for 2 years." I said with a sigh.
