Chapter 1008: Taihao

When Qin Shi Huang destroyed Chu, he compared this matter with Yu Shun's expulsion of Sanmiao, so he sacrificed the Shun Temple in the city, and it was at that time, in Huaiyang City, that I saw Xia Gong for the first time......"

As the Taizhu of the imperial court, Shusun Tong followed Zhang Han, one of the servants of Jiuqing, and escorted the last batch of 30,000 rear troops and hundreds of thousands of grains to Huaiyang, Chendi.

After 16 years, revisiting the old place, Shusun Tong was inevitably moved in front of a group of Confucian scholars from all over the Central Plains.

At that time, he came late because his teacher Kong Kun was unwilling to respond to the call of Qin Shi Huang, but he was stopped and searched by a black-faced Qin official outside, and he was very meticulous, so he almost took him off.

Later, Shusun Tong and the two old Confucians quarreled in the temple in order to tamper with what Confucius said and tout the matter of Qin Mugong, and Heifu heard it......

Of course, Shusun Tong didn't talk about these things, he only vaguely said what he had seen and heard, and said to the Confucians:

"When Qin Shi Huang asked correctly, and Xia Gong was the leader, and he stood on the side with his own blade. When I was finished, I returned to Qufu, and the Lu people asked, 'What is the King of Qin?' I replied, 'King of Qin is very hopeful, but the man who catches the blade at the head of the bed is a true hero!' ”

Hearing this, the Confucian scholars first praised Heifu, and then praised Uncle Sun for his discerning eyes to recognize the Lord.

completely forgot that some time ago, these people who had an old relationship with their uncle and grandson Tong also complained that their uncle and grandson were the officials of the imperial court, but they did not recommend them as officials, but specially recommended a group of thieves who could cut the flag and hold the flag.

At that time, my uncle and grandson said: "Xia Gongfang is fighting for the world, and all beings would rather fight?" Therefore, the prophet will cut the flag. All beings treat me, and I will not forget. ”

And now, he really hasn't forgotten this group of old people who have a certain right to speak in the Central Plains, and it took a few months to gather them one by one, and today they gathered in Huaiyang, just to plan a big thing for Heifu:

"Sacrifice Taihao Mausoleum!"

Taihao was originally the ancestor of a small country with the surname of Ren, Su, Su, and Zhuan, but later, under the continuous accumulation of ancient history and the grafting of stories, it was completely combined with the "Ku Xi clan", that is, the myth of Fuxi.

Legend has it that Fu Xi was one of the three emperors, acting on behalf of the Suiren clan and succeeding the king of the sky. Mother said Hua Xu. The footsteps of the great man are in the thunder and the life is sacrificed in the age. Fuxi snake body and human head, there is holiness. Looking up is to observe the image in the sky, looking down is to observe the law on the ground, watching the literature of birds and beasts, and the appropriateness of the earth, taking all the bodies close and taking all things from afar. Began to draw gossip, with the virtue of the gods, and the love of all things.

He also made a book deed to replace the government of the rope. So the beginning of the marriage, with the skin as a gift. Raise sacrifices to cook. Therefore, it is called sacrifice. There is Long Rui. Take the dragon judge. Called the Dragon Division. Make the serpent of the thirty-five strings. King Mudd.

In short, he was a saint, and like Heifu, he was a great inventor, and gossip, book deeds, marriages, domestication of livestock, and music were all attributed to Fuxi.

Its capital is in Chen, it collapsed in one hundred and eleven years, and was buried in the north of Wanqiu, which has Taihao Mausoleum.

Sacrifice Taihao Mausoleum, which was originally the advice of the upstart in the feather battalion, named "Huangshi", but the uncle and grandson were also extremely in favor of it, and said to Heifu:

"Although Qin Shi Huang sacrificed to Emperor Shun, in fact, he completely chose the wrong god of sacrifice. Although Emperor Shun is one of the five emperors, but in Chendi, only the descendants of Chen worship every year, but Taihao is different, whether it is after Chen, or the people of Chu, nobles, scholars, and Shu, are extremely reverent, called the ancestors, and must be worshiped on the second day of February every year. ”

The Kanto and Kansai are different customs, especially the etiquette, and the uncle and grandson Tong said that even if the barbarians seize the Central Plains, they must also show their attention to etiquette and music, and make paste, so as to win the support of the nobles and scholars.

What's more, it's Xia Gong?

So Shusun Tong entangled the Confucian scholars in the Central Plains, let them participate, formulate the etiquette of worship, and said that he participated, but in fact, he took the idea according to the needs of Xia Gong - because when Xia Gong wanted to go south from the Song Dynasty to Chendi, he would first worship the tomb and then enter the city, and the time was very tight.

July 15, the day of the sacrifice, Xia Gong's 10,000 personal guards have already surrounded the Taihao Mausoleum, although it is a legend, but there is really a mountain as tall as a mausoleum in the north of the city, as for whether it is buried in Taihao, God knows, anyway, with the official endorsement of Zhou, Chen, and Chu, a temple is set up here, and worships every year, isn't it.

After waiting for Xia Gong, the uncle and grandson talked about it:

"The original burial mound was not as tall as it is today, but I don't know when folklore used the soil of the hometown to add graves to people's ancestors, so that they could have children and avoid disasters. Therefore, men and women who came to worship brought a bag of loess from their hometowns and scattered it on their graves. Over time, the Fuxi Tomb became as big as a hill. ”

The beliefs of the Chinese are indeed very real.

Heifu laughed, and at the end he suddenly asked his uncle and grandson:

"Spirit?"

Uncle Sun Tong was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered that before the regent came to the east, his wife was already pregnant, and now it is seven or eight months old, and he immediately said: "It is said to be very spiritual." ”

"I used to go in with my master, and there was a stone with a clear hole in it, and it used to be said that if you wanted a boy, you would put your finger in it, turn it three times to the left, and ask the girl to turn it three times to the right, and then put your hand in the sleeve again, and it would be fulfilled."

Heifu said: "If this is the case, Dongmen Leopard should have come to give it a try." ”

He smiled again: "Of course, it's too late now." ”

It sounded like he was "asking for a friend".

But later, in the unrestrained and passionate sacrificial witch dance, the predecessor of Huaiyang's "Shoulder the Scripture" in the later generations, Heifu quietly put his finger into the child-seeking stone that the guards had checked three times in advance.

He turned to the right again, turned three times, and muttered:

"This time, I hope to give birth to a little princess and daughter......"

……

"The sacrifice of the prison is to comfort the Emperor Xi.

Five hundred spring and autumn, there will be a Ming king.

Ji Shi is eventful, and Xia Gong is out of the east.

Dominate the world again, eliminate violence and calm the people.

Now in Wanqiu, and play a chapter.

The old feathers go, and the new universe is brilliant.

The ritual of not being shy, but still feasting. ”

With the dedication of the prison, the lengthy sacrificial text was finally read, and today's ceremony was the sole responsibility of Shusun Tong, who said to Heifu:

"The five emperors are different, and the three kings are different. The celebrant is also a person who is a writer because of the feelings of the world. Therefore, the profits and losses of Xia, Yin, and Zhou Zhili can be known, and they are said to be incompatible. The ministers are willing to adopt the ancient rites and the Qin and the Six Kingdoms rituals. ”

And this ceremony, which is indeed a mixture of Zhou rites and Qin, Chen, and Chu rites, can be regarded as taking into account all of them, and the Confucian scholars in the Central Plains can't help but nod their heads, thinking that it is decent.

The ceremony of sacrificing Taihao before entering the city is to emphasize the legitimacy of this "successor" not only to inherit the business of Qin, but also to inherit the legitimacy of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, which is enough to make Chen Dishi people understand his goodwill to follow the customs of the country.

But ordinary people can't understand it at all, so after the ceremony, when Heifu carried out the ceremony of entering the city, he specially changed out of his sacrificial clothes, put on another clothes, and shook it in front of the three elders who greeted him.

This appearance alone was enough to make the people of Huaiyang stunned.

"I read that right......

Zhuang Jia, the imperial husband of Huaiyang, who originally hated the Qin people, was a little surprised after seeing Xia Gong's majestic crown from afar:

"What he's wearing is actually a Chu suit!?"

……

Although Chen Di has been conquered for half a month, there is still some turmoil, the Chu people are purely suppressed by force, Xia Gong, who has always paid attention to safety, naturally will not show up much, but after entering Huaiyang, he frequently invited local scholars to discuss, how to form a new county government headed by Chen Junyang Xia people, county lieutenant Wu Guang and others.

Therefore, the mission of explaining Xia Gong's intentions still fell on Shusun Tong.

"You are not mistaken, what Xia Gong is wearing is indeed a Chu suit."

At the banquet that summoned the three elders and scholars of Chen Di, Shusun Tong endorsed Heifu in this way.

"Xia Gong is originally a native of Anlu in Nanjun, and he is also the land of Western Chu, and he is a fellow villager with Chen Ren. He has always been thrifty, on weekdays, when he lived in Yanju, he wore a short Chu suit, and today he specially wore a long Chu suit, crowned Chu Guan, because he entered the Chen land, and specially entered the countryside to follow the customs! ”

"Do as the locals do?"

Chen Di's father and elder were a little surprised, when Qin Shi Huang entered Chen, but he came in as a conqueror, this Xia Gong was a little different.

Hearing that Uncle Sun Tong only talked about Xia and did not mention Qin throughout the whole process, the rejection of this group of propertied people faded a lot.

At the banquet, Shusun Tong described the Xia Gong's plan to rule over Chen, or Chu, and the Six Kingdoms:

"Qi Zheng cultivates religion, and rules according to customs!"
