The swordsman of the Yue Kingdom was taken down, and someone was naturally responsible for the interrogation, so there was no need to worry about Chu He. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Some of the cultivators under him had a way to pry open the mouth of this Yue swordsman and let him summon the main messenger behind the scenes.

With a common hostile goal, coupled with Chu He's deliberate flattery, the Qu family quickly reached an agreement with Chu He.

The entire process of the entire Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, as well as the matters that should be paid attention to, and the sacrificial texts were also brought back by Chu He and slowly became familiar with them. All the miscellaneous trivial matters are naturally handled by the Qu family, and there is no need for Chu He to worry about it.

Of course, the so-called trivial matters are both obligations and rights. The Qu family worked willingly.

The bloody rain caused by the sixteen jade plaques finally came to an end, except for the two jade plaques that were broken in the battle and could no longer be used, the remaining fourteen jade plaques all had their own stable owners.

At the end of April, close to the beginning of May, King Chu Ling began to move to Zhanghuatai, accompanied by hundreds of officials.

As the main sacrifice, the Chu River needs to be taken care of before the king of Chu arrives in Zhanghuatai, and only wait for the fifth day of the fifth month of May to sacrifice to the sun.

Later generations will combine Qu Yuan and Duanyang... That is, the Dragon Boat Festival is tied up, in fact, it can't be regarded as a mistake. Because it is indeed because of Qu Yuan that the Duanyang Festival, a regional festival, has almost been expanded to the area of Chinese people around the world.

But in fact, long before Qu Yuan jumped into the river, the Duanyang Festival already existed, and it was an extremely important day of celebration in Chudi.

Qu Yuan's choice to jump into the river on such a day is just like a great person who chose to commit suicide during the Spring Festival or Christmas, which is full of a tragic sense of contrast. At the same time, it also gives a special day, more meaning and definition.

In any case, the current Duanyang Festival does not explicitly represent someone, it is more like a punctuation mark, representing the 'summer solstice'.

At this time, the Chu people worshipped fire, and summer would make people associate it with fire to some extent.

Chu River walks between the palace buildings of Zhanghuatai, everywhere you see, there are luxurious places showing ingenuity, although it is a new building, but there is still an indescribable sense of history.

This is not at all the same thing as the big mounds that later generations saw.

"Sure enough, the pavilions and pavilions, carved railings and jade buildings, the wind is always blown away by the rain and wind. Where the people of later generations disdain, this moment is the most extravagant and prosperous place. Let's open a brain hole again, today's Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, how prosperous and noisy, housing prices are rising again and again. If it is thousands of years from now, what will it look like? It will be even more prosperous and huge, like a monster, gathering a large number of people, financial resources, and material resources. Or has it long since withered into ruins, and no one cares?" Chu He walked alone in front of him, followed by a large group of slaves who were responsible for counting, cleaning, and dressing up the place.

"Gongzi chin, the Chu Wang Ding used to sacrifice to the heavens has been cast, you might as well go and take a look. A young man approached him with a sense of elegance.

This person's name is Qu Heng, and he is the leader of the younger generation of the Qu family, since the position of the chief priest has been sided, the position of the deputy priest on the left and right, the Qu family will not pay too much attention to it, so they sent juniors to come to practice.

The Chu Wang Ding in Qu Heng's mouth is the seven treasure tripods cast by the King of Chu Ling who spent a lot of refined copper mixed with some rare treasures.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, although Zhou Tianzi declined, his authority had not been completely eliminated.

Although King Chu Ling was arrogant, extravagant, and stupid, he was not bold enough to cast Jiuding, and wantonly revealed his ambitions, which caused Zhou Tianzi to be dissatisfied and attracted the eyes of the princes of the world and jealousy.

The so-called bell ringing Ding food, the state of ritual music, the bell is music, and the tripod is the ceremony.

Therefore, the temple of the heavens, this Chu King Qiding is the top priority, and there is no room for sloppiness.

When Chu He heard this, he nodded and said, "Okay! ”

Seven three-legged, round and slender waist Baoding stand in a large hall.

Only when it is time to sacrifice to the heavens, can King Chu Ling hold up these seven big tripods and go to the altar.

The body of the tripod is painted with a relief of a nine-headed phoenix, neatly engraved with inscriptions, and the ears are like phoenix tails facing upwards, arched high.

Chu He took a closer look, and only felt that these seven great tripods, in addition to the fine workmanship and elegant, could only be described by the word 'bulky', and there was nothing particularly surprising about it.

He also saw that there was nothing missing, and then ordered a team of soldiers to strictly guard the hall where the seven tripods were placed, and then left.

Everything is ready, the entrance has already been entered one after another, and those who are not qualified to come in can only circle outside Zhanghuatai, so anxious that their mouths are foaming.

On the fifth day of the fifth month of May, King Chu Ling officially arrived in Zhanghuatai.

From the first rays of the morning sun rise, the ancestors and kings of the past dynasties are worshipped, and a cart of bamboo slips with sacrificial texts written on them is burned.

Then the ceremonial music sounds, and the huge chimes and chimes are arranged in rows, sounding the magnificent music.

Musical instruments such as gong, cymbal, duo, chiyu, and bell also alternate, making the whole piece more complex and cumbersome.

As far as Chu He heard, the mixed performance of these instruments may not be very good, but there is an extremely shocking feeling, which makes people have to become more solemn and cautious in this atmosphere.

The hundreds of guests, the Manchu scholars of the Chu State, and some people who came in through the back door with the tokens issued by the Chu River, were already kneeling around the altar.

Although the scorching sun was exposed, no one complained of being tired, and they all looked straight in the direction of due south.

Due south, King Chu Ling was wearing the princes' royal clothes, holding a big tripod in one hand, and walked on foot.

The big tripod, which weighed more than a thousand catties, seemed to be as light as nothing in the hands of King Chu Ling.

Since Emperor Yu onwards, the world Kyushu, luck to the tripod, so the scholar with one tripod or three tripods, the doctor with five tripods, the princes with seven tripods, and the Son of Heaven can use nine tripods, sacrifice to the ancestors of heaven and earth when the nine tripods ceremony.

Ding is luck, is a symbol of status, how high status, how high the qualification, how many tripods can be held.

The Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period, and even many heroes of the later Warring States Period, all tried to raise Jiuding, but they failed one after another, so they had to retreat to their original positions and dare not fight the world again.

It is because Jiuding judged that they did not have the qualifications to gather the luck of Kyushu.

King Chu Ling, as the king of Chu State, was easily lifted within the seven tripods, as if there was nothing.

The so-called Son of Heaven lifts nine tripods and gathers the fortunes of the world, this statement and the conventional model will not officially come to an end until Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, kills himself in Wujiang.

Since then, it is difficult for the Son of Heaven to lift the tripod, and the so-called Jiuding has become a nominal symbol, without much practical significance.

Because Xiang Yu once raised the Jiuding, this brought together the last remnants of Chu and the remnants of the six kingdoms swept by the King of Qin, overthrowing the powerful Great Qin Empire.

But in the end, Xiang Yu was defeated by Wujiang and ended up killing himself.

did not become the lord of Kyushu, the prince of the world.

Bang! Bang! Bang... ！

With seven loud noises in a row, King Chu Ling placed the seven big tripods on the altar.

Next is the appearance of the main priest of Chu River.

Wearing a feather coat woven by phoenix feathers handed down from ancient times, holding a Zhurong dry wooden staff, wearing a phoenix tail feather crown, stepping on mango shoes, and painting the phoenix five virtues on his face, Chu He walked up to the altar with a peculiar step and stood beside King Chu Ling.
