Chapter 1179
Ancient.
Autumn planting is a grand event.
Not only must all the people participate, even His Imperial Majesty will open an altar to worship Heaven and Earth, and he must go down to the fields and work with the people.
Numerous officials must also not eat meat for half a month after the sacrifice, and must go to the fields to work for an hour every day.
This is the rule since ancient times, and in the Imperial Palace, numerous officials will be evaluated during these few days. If you follow suit, then that’s all. But if anyone dares Sorry, don't do it as an official, you will be a farmer for the next three generations!
This is an extremely serious punishment, so no officials dare to overstep or be lazy.
"dong dong dong ——!"
After three bells, the people of Chang'an City, basically the moment they heard the bell, got up and prepared Good ritual supplies must be neatly placed at the door of their house.
At the gate of the Huasheng Temple, a group of monks, His Imperial Majesty Empress Retired Emperor and the others will all dominate, pray for the heavens with a kind of eminent monk, and recite three scriptures together. To go to the altar.
Set up in the backyard of Huasheng Temple, which was later in front of the tower of the Great Wild Goose Pagoda.
Great Wild Goose Pagoda Three days before the sacrifice, there were high-level people around the Great Wild Goose Pagoda reciting the inscription of the sacrifice to the sky. For three days and three nights, when Li Shimin and the others arrived, then The sacrificial activities officially began.
"I, today received the Mandate of Heaven, amnesty and people, and submitted to Shennong Surname..."
In Cháng'ān University.
Zhang Feng heard the bell early. When the bell rang, Cheng Chumo and the others would stop their work in an instant, and bow to the sky no matter what they were doing.
At the gate of Cháng'ān University, Jia Daoren and the others set up the three animal sacrifices early, and even more so when the horn of Huasheng Temple sounded, with all the people in Chang'an City Together, the merchants set off firecrackers.
Zhang Feng is a bit strange.
Looking at everyone's actions, he hesitated and asked: "Where is Li Qian? Why didn't he come?"
"Oh, he went to sacrifice to heaven."
Du Gou said casually.
But suddenly it seemed that something came to mind, and he hurriedly said: "He is the heir of the merchant Great Family, so he will naturally be invited to worship with His Imperial Majesty."
Zhang Feng hearing this, his eyes lit up.
He just remembered at this time that in ancient times, when planting in autumn and spring, there would be activities to sacrifice to the heavens, and it seems that all the people have to participate in these activities.
However, he looked at a few people with dignified expressions with some doubts, and then listened to the loud noise outside the door and the noise of firecrackers. ,
It is reasonable to say that his Academy is basically invited or ordered. After all, it is the Academy, but he has not received any news. What is going on?
Li Qian, they can all go, why didn't they receive the invitation?
Is there any moth in it that can't make it?
In Zhang Feng’s suspicion, a few people also hurriedly completed the sacrifice to the heavens. Zhang Feng couldn’t believe in Du Dabing and the others, so he hurriedly called Fang Yiai and asked: "A pair, it’s you. The most honest, you tell me honestly, according to the rules, it seems that all people have to participate in such sacrificial activities, but why did I not receive the invitation, or no one came to notify us?"
" Let’s not go, will it be okay?"
"It’s okay 1"
Fang Yiai said with some ignorance: "We are the Academy, and you are the Great Confucian, so naturally there is nothing People who dare to ask you to participate in the sacrifice to heaven, and you think about it, all people have to kneel during the sacrifice, and if you think about your rules, if you let you go, if you say something wrong, that’s it. You will lose your head!"
Zhang Feng was dumbfounded.
"Then we don’t want to see it? And if this sacrifice, even His Imperial Majesty will kneel down, don’t we say everything in this school rule, but kneel to Heaven and Earth, kneel to your parents? Why can't this be anymore?"
While speaking, Zhang Feng felt more and more weird.
I'm going to see what happened.
After all, Zhang Feng is the favorite to join in the fun, besides, it is the most mysterious and grandest in ancient times.
But now Cheng Chumo and the others are in a hurry.
They just don’t want Zhang Feng to go out, and His Imperial Majesty personally made an order to them last night, not allowing Zhang Feng to go out. If Zhang Feng goes to the altar, then everything will be understood. ?
Where can this work?
Although they don't know why His Imperial Majesty has to cover up, this is the imperial order and they have to obey.
I also directly used stubborn housekeeping skills.
You said, I said: "Feng'zi, don’t make trouble. This is His Imperial Majesty and all farmers in the world. It is a grand gathering to worship Shennong Surname, although all Everyone will participate, but this does not include everything. Think about it, what are we doing now?"
"What we do is also to benefit the people, and we also participated in the sacrifice early. In the middle of the day’s activities, it is just a kind of blessing to God by His Imperial Majesty, numerous officials and the people, and where are you here?
"This is perfectly clear doing things! "
"This is the greatest deed to God, and Li Qian's youngster has already represented our Cháng'ān University and you have gone. If you are going at this time, it will only anger His Imperial. Majesty. "
"Think about it, now numerous officials are staring at you. There are also people from the five surnames and seven tribes and Guanlong people. According to the rules, they should participate when the bell rings. But now you have missed the time. You go at this time. It is not to sacrifice, you are directly. Go and give yourself as a sacrifice to heaven! "
