Chapter 281: The Crystal Ball Circle Will Be Completed

Jia Pingzhang has a lot of eyeliner in the Great Song Palace, and he can get any news he wants at any time------ which may be a last reliance for him to save his life, after all, the only two people who really decide his life and death in the Great Song Kingdom are the Great Song official family and the Empress Dowager Xie.

Of course, the current situation is very favorable to him, and it is far from such a crisis, it can only be said that it is out of instinct, he always has to take precautions and take precautions.

Since the news he got was always the same, Jia Pingzhang hadn't seriously analyzed them recently------ so he immediately became alert after hearing about the different situation of the Great Song Dynasty official family from the relays of the Fa Ke system.

In the centralized system, the Great Song official family had the highest power, he could decide anyone's life and death, and seemed to have the highest freedom------ in fact, he would also be in a situation of being closely monitored by others.

Under a totalitarian system, no one can have true freedom.

Fa Ke Tong got Jia Pingzhang's hint in the final comment------ now is not the time to participate in the war, but as long as there is a certain opportunity, there is an opportunity to make meritorious contributions------- so it is important to let the officials of the Great Song Dynasty have a correct hobby, what are the various formations and the like, and do their best to demonstrate them to the officials.

In the end, the Fa Ke Commander left with full expectations, although he could not leave the territory of the Great Song Dynasty with the navy now, and could not become famous overseas like Liuqiu Island, but at least he could learn to equip himself with the Liuqiu Navy!

On the day he joins the war, he will be able to achieve a battle that can be passed down through the ages with the power of thunder!

After he left, Jia Pingzhang's smiling face immediately became gloomy.

He looked at the information sent by the Great Song Palace again, and looked at it carefully for a long time, but it was still just that the Great Song official family had recently suffered from aggravated heart disease and was weak; Empress Dowager Xie still kept her duty, did not listen too much about political affairs, and looked at "Da Song Times" and "Liuqiu Times" every day.

Maybe it's because the official family is really just in poor health and can't concentrate on his imperial camp------- as long as it's not for other reasons.

Thinking of the official family's body, Jia Pingzhang couldn't help but sigh.

He looked down and thought that such a young official family was not as good as his own health!

Since the seventh month of the tenth year of Xianchun, that is, the end of the summer of 1274, the dragon body has gradually appeared all kinds of discomforts, but after treatment, it can always get better------ why is there more of this disease in the twelfth year of Xianchun?!

At this time, the situation is very good, how can you get heart disease?!

Jia Pingzhang knew that he was trusted by the official Zhao Yu in every way, calling him a minister, of course, he also used a wholehearted way to assist the Great Song Dynasty, otherwise there would be no such situation------- if there is no trust from the official, his plan to serve the country is in vain, so it is too important for him that the official family can live for a while.

He immediately summoned a few of his personal staff and began to discuss how to make the Great Song official family healthy.

They collectively despised the imperial doctors of the Great Song Hanlin Medical Academy, they were all people who had been selected by thousands of people, and they couldn't even cure the minor illnesses of the official family

The institutions under the Hanlin Medical Institution mainly include Shang Yao Bureau, Imperial Medicine Hospital, Tai Yi Bureau and Bao Shou Cui Heguan.

Especially in the Shang Pharmacy Bureau, the doctors there are all imperial doctors of the Great Song Dynasty official family, so the selection is very strict, and they must pass the examination of the Hanlin Academy, and the Great Song Dynasty official family can only enter the Shang Pharmacy after the imperial approval.

In the Song Dynasty, the punishment system for medical treatment was very harsh, and if the imperial doctor did not have any effect in treating the disease, he would generally be fined, dismissed, and even exiled!

Therefore, it cannot be said that they are irresponsible in diagnosing and treating the diseases of the officials------ but it is also true that the results are not good, and this may be related to their level.

Jia Pingzhang ordered his personal butlers to go around looking for a panacea and visit the folk miracle doctors.

In fact, these were originally public affairs, but Jia Pingzhang took them more seriously than his own private affairs, and even the fighting crickets that he liked to play the most stopped playing.

A personal butler said that he could pray for the birthday of the official family with the help of the crystal ball circle offered by Liuqiu------

Jia Pingzhang nodded, this is a good way, if there are really nearly 10,000 crystal balls to collectively absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, this magic circle may also have a magical effect!

The people of the Great Song Dynasty soon spread a saying that the Great Song Dynasty Palace will hold the Mid-Autumn Festival crystal ball array on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, one to pray for the common people in the world, and the other to increase the longevity of the Great Song Dynasty officials.

According to the contribution figures recorded in the "Great Song Times", in recent years, there should have been as many as 10,000 pieces.

Think about it, there are 10,000 crystal balls in the official treasury of the Great Song Palace------- how spectacular this is, it is really desirable!

Then there are rumors that when the time comes, there will be a patrol in the people, so that all the people and the official family can enjoy together------- so that everyone is looking forward to the arrival of the Mid-Autumn Festival soon!

When it comes to the Mid-Autumn Festival, say a few words of gossip.

Some historians have pointed out that the origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival should be the end of the Sui Dynasty Tang Army in the 13th year of August 15, the Tang Army Pei Lin took the full moon as the concept, successfully invented moon cakes, and widely distributed the army as a military salary, and successfully solved the problem of military rations derived from the large absorption of anti-Sui rebels.

But it was during the Song Dynasty that the Mid-Autumn Festival really began to flourish.

People in the Song Dynasty not only admired the moon but also worshiped the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival------- the so-called moon worship is to burn incense in the courtyard to worship the moon god, and say their wishes for a year, in order to be blessed.

At that time, men worshiped the moon generally to "step into the Toad Palace early and climb the fairy laurel high", while women worshiped the moon mainly in the hope that they would "look like Chang'e and face like the bright moon".

For this custom, some poets wrote poems and laughed at that time, "When people don't go to the department early, just for Chang'e to love the youth." ”

That is to say, when the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, the moon appreciation in Lin'an will be different from other counties, and the children of the people in the city are not rich or poor, but can travel to the twelfth and thirteenth, all in adult clothing, climb the building or burn incense in the atrium to worship the moon, everyone has their own expectations.

The Mid-Autumn Festival in the Song Dynasty was celebrated all night, and people would not go to sleep because it was late.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the noble family decorates the pavilion, and the people compete to occupy the restaurant to play the moon, and the silk fence is boiling.

Residents near the inner courtyard, hearing the sound of the sheng rod in the middle of the night, as if outside the clouds; Children in Luli frolic all night; The night market is Khotan, as for the know. ”

During the Mid-Autumn Festival in the Great Song Dynasty, mooncakes were not a necessity, and many families would not deliberately prepare mooncakes as an accompaniment to the night.

Drinking alcohol was more common than moon cakes------ because under the conditions at that time, making moon cakes was still a big task for ordinary people.

First, the process of making moon cakes is more complicated, which is difficult for ordinary people to do; Second, not every household can buy all the materials needed for moon cakes.

Drinks are different, most of the villages and towns and neighborhoods have wine shops, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is the time when new wine is on the market. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the rich drank wine and sang, and the poor also bought clothes and wine, barely welcoming the joy and refusing to waste it.

In the Great Song Dynasty, regardless of the north, south, east and west, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, you have to drink some "play moon soup", in fact, it is just an ordinary soup and rice------ in addition, fresh fruits are also indispensable.

The time of the Mid-Autumn Festival in the Song Dynasty is not unified, some areas are indeed the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, but there are also some areas such as eastern Zhejiang, which is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 16.

Legend has it that Shi Hao, who once served as the prime minister, his hometown is in the eastern part of Zhejiang, Shi Hao's local concept is very heavy, every year on August 15, he has to take a family from the capital Lin'an, to his hometown to reunite with the villagers, this habit has been maintained for many years.

Until one year before the Mid-Autumn Festival, when he returned to his hometown for the Mid-Autumn Festival, he had to stop in Shaoxing because the horse he was riding on the way was injured, but this stop missed August 15.

The next day, that is, on August 16, Shi Hao, who had changed his mount, arrived in his hometown, and the local people had another Mid-Autumn Festival in order to be able to gather with Shi Hao.

Shortly thereafter, Shi Hao died. In order to commemorate him, the parents in his hometown simply changed the Mid-Autumn Festival to August 16.
