Destiny Only Han

Chapter 321 Liu Ying: Listen to me, thank you...

Luoyang Palace, side hall, the sky is getting dark.

More than a dozen waiters walked in carrying food boxes, and placed food on the table one by one.

Taigong Liu seems to have returned to the Zhongyangli era these days. Every day, the whole family huddles in one room to eat, but the food has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The salty, pickled meat and vegetables used to accompany the meal disappeared, replaced by mostly hard dishes such as sauced elbow, stewed lamb shank and roasted venison, as well as seasonal vegetables and dried fruits to relieve the greasy.

It's just that Liu Taigong, who is getting older and doesn't care about his appetite except for joining in the fun, feels a little regretful in his heart.

After the food is too plentiful, it lacks the kind of noisy, you fight for me...

After Liu Ying came late, she saluted, and dragged Liu Ruyi aside, and slammed her ass to Taigong Liu's side.

Although Liu Ru yelled in anger, Mr. Liu seemed to have never heard of it, and he gave Liu Ying a chicken leg with a smile on his face.

Seeing this situation, Liu Bi, who was still somewhat aggrieved in the corner, lowered his head decisively, pretending to be eating, trying to make himself forget the kick that Liu Ying kicked in public during the day.

Although he said he wanted to file a complaint with Mrs. Liu when he was running away, he knew deep down in his heart that although both he and Liu Ying were grandsons of Mrs. Liu, it was a matter of public opinion who the old man preferred. .

After filing a complaint, there is a high probability that he will be beaten again...

Therefore, this is also the reason why he is taller and stronger than Liu Ying, but he dare not fight back at all.

Liu Ying rubbed the chicken leg, triumphantly raised her eyebrows at the aggrieved Liu Ruyi, her eyes inadvertently glanced at Liu Bi, who was like an ostrich with her head down, she smiled in her heart, and then slowly looked away.

It's no fun to bully a chicken!
But the scene she saw during the day did teach Liu Ying a lesson.

If that little court lady hadn't been Wang Yanfei, and Liu Bi hadn't been the powerless son of the Liu family, one can imagine the development of the matter.

Therefore, we must strictly implement Shang Yang's philosophy and remain unwavering for 100 years!
Why do you say that?
Because the military merit system established by Shang Yang in Qin State established the monkey-playing attribute of Qin Fa.

Military meritorious officials reward farming wars, but they turn around and pass strict laws to punish the rewards that have been handed out, forming a sustainable development situation with laws to follow...

Take a chestnut.

In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, a total of 143 meritorious princes were entrusted.

Before Han Wu came to the throne, a total of 69 companies were expelled from the country, of which 15 were expelled due to the extinction of their children, and a total of 54 companies (accounting for 37%) were accused of committing crimes, losing political struggles or being accused of conspiring against the country.

By the time of the Han Dynasty, 72 companies were eliminated from the country, and 67 companies (accounting for 46%) were arrested for crimes. Among them, 20 companies collapsed because Liu Xiaozhu squatted in front of the gate of the ancestral temple to check the fineness of gold. Moldy...

The only two princes who survived until Tai Shigong finished writing the historical records were Pingyanghou and Guyanghou.

Among them, Marquis Pingyang belongs to the lineage of Cao Shen, and the mother of Marquis Pingyang of the present age is Princess Wei, so he is Liu Che's grandson and escaped for the time being.

But later, due to being involved in the witchcraft chaos, the identity of the grandson is naturally not easy to use.

Marquis of Pingyang, died...

Although the Guyanghou Kingdom was not clearly recorded by the Tai Shigong, in the later period of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, the Liehou families that were eliminated in the early years were systematically restored, including the Guyanghou Kingdom.

What is certain is that in the late period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, all the Gonghou groups rushed to the street...

Therefore, words such as "make the river like a belt, mount Tai like a mountain, the country is Yongning, Yuan and Miao people" engraved on the metal are really just random engravings.

Even if the hero group is like this, the blood kings are actually quite miserable.

For example, a certain son of destiny riding a bull...

But Cao Shen's family is a legend.

Although the Cao family was beaten to the end by Han Wu, Cao Hong, the son of Cao Benshi, the last Marquis of Pingyang, raised his troops to assist Guangwu, and the Marquis of Pingyang continued in the Eastern Han Dynasty...

It's a pity that Cao Hong's ability is not good, and he was not ranked among the 28 Yuntai generals in the end, unable to continue the glory of his ancestors.

Well, the reason why the section of the Hongmen Banquet in the Shiji was written in great detail is because when Tai Shigong went to Pei County to gather folk songs, he talked and laughed happily with the descendants of Fan Kuai who had been made a commoner and returned to his hometown to farm.

So, if Shang Yang's thinking is good, it is good, it is good...

Liu Ying shook her head, looked at Taigong Liu again and asked, "Father, it will be the Shangsi Festival on March [-]rd soon, where shall we go this year?"

Hearing Liu Ying's words, Liu Le, who was sitting next to Lu Zhi and buried himself in cooking, immediately pricked up his ears.

Rough to play, okay!
Mr. Liu was taken aback for a moment, a little annoyed.

He was not familiar with the land of Luoyang, so he really didn't know where it was a good place to go.

After the Tang and Song Dynasties, the Shangsi Festival has generally been integrated with Qingming and Hanshi.

But at this time, the main activities of the Shangsi Festival are offering sacrifices, exorcising, repairing and bathing, praying for fertility and getting rid of diseases.

In fact, I went to the river to sing and dance, and take a bath by the way...

So this day is usually also a blind date meeting organized by young men and women.

Qin Law even clearly stipulates that men and women who elope on this day will not be punished by law...

Now that the population of the Han State is smaller than that of the Qin State, this kind of large-scale blind date activities needs to be held more often.

Grandpa Liu hesitated for a moment, looked at Liu Bang and asked, "You have lived here for a long time, where do you think we are going?"

Liu Bang froze for a moment, slightly absent-minded.

Before he came to eat, the man guarding the gate of the palace reported to the future that Liu Ying and Liu Bi had a fight in front of the palace gate. It is said that it was because of a little maid...

So Liu Bang has not been calm until now.

It's normal for boys to fight, and his daughter of the big grievance can even fight against three without losing the wind...

But little boys fight over women...

So at this moment, hearing Liu Taigong's question, Liu Bang glanced at Liu Bi, Liu Xin and Liu Fei, and said with a smile:

"Let's go to Songshan Mountain, I'll sacrifice to the heaven and the earth by the way..."

The major events of the country are sacrificed to Rong.

Now Liu Bang has proclaimed himself emperor, so there are many more sacrificial activities.

Liu Ying agreed with this, because he had a bold idea in his heart.

Songshan was given to Liu Bang, and Taishan was going to be kept for himself...

........................

March [-], Shangsi Festival.

At the foot of Songshan Mountain, lush and green.

Liu Bang, Zhang Liang and other princes and courtiers in Luoyang went to worship the temple built by Qin State to worship the mountain god of Taishi Mountain.

Liu Ying was too lazy to join in the fun...

To be precise, he is lazy to climb mountains.

After all, there are several miles of mountain roads from the foot of the mountain to the temple where we worship, and I am exhausted...

Moreover, this is a sacrifice, not an outing, and it is absolutely impossible to sit on a sliding pole.

After Liu Bang and others left, Liu Ying followed Zhang Buyi step by step. Wherever he went, Liu Ying followed.

His loli has gradually transformed into a girl, so he needs to keep an eye on Zhang Buyi at all times.

Puppy love is not recommended...

Zhang Buyi ran around and didn't get rid of him, so he squatted beside a big rock and looked up at the sky.

Liu Ying struggled to climb up the rock, while closely monitoring Zhang Buyi's every move, while watching the crowd having fun by the stream.

Among them, Liu Fei is the most energetic.

However, it was not others who fought with Liu Fei, but Lu Tai and Lu Chan.

Under Lu Zhi's surveillance, Liu Le was about to move, but he didn't dare to act rashly.

And Mrs. Cao wandered around with bright eyes, whispering to Lu Zhi from time to time, scoring the girls of the right age who participated in the Shangsi Festival, and using it as a candidate for proposing marriage to Liu Fei.

When it was almost noon, a high platform decorated with flowers and herbs had been erected on the stream.

A few wizards who had been waiting there for a long time, wearing sacrificial attire, lotus robes, and grass crowns, ran up and danced to the big god shaking their heads.

Well, it is actually praying for the gods to bless the earth, drive away evil spirits, and procreate.

There are many Chu people among the high-ranking officials of the Han Dynasty on Liu Bang's side, so the sacrificial activities such as the Shangsi Festival are naturally tainted with the style of Chu's secret belief in ghosts and gods.

If Shu Suntong were to organize it, it would be much more solemn.

After dancing and dancing on the high platform, the wizard distributed the prepared bluegrass to all the people present.

Ren Qiulan admires Hu Jiangli and Pi Zhixi.

This is a custom common to Chu people.

Therefore, men and women of suitable age and childbearing age walked to the stream with orchid grass in hand, rolled up their sleeves and untied their braids, dipped the orchid grass in the stream water and began to bathe.

This is called repairing.

This is a custom handed down from ancient times.

At that time, people believed that fertility was the result of totems entering women's bodies, and infertility was the result of ghosts and spirits.

Therefore, we should use the sacrificial ceremony on the Shangsi Festival to get rid of ghosts and gods and reproduce offspring.

Although later, after the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, the Duke of Zhou taught the common people the way of dunlun for husbands and wives, so that people could get rid of superstition.

But the inherent character of the Chinese people would rather believe what they have than not believe what they don’t have, and let’s talk about what they have and what they don’t...

What if, right?

So this custom has been passed down.

"Did you know that in the real Shangsi Festival of the Chu Kingdom, men and women need to take off their clothes and take off their belts, and face each other with bare shoulders (chěng)..."

Under the stone, Zhang Buyi said in a low voice.

If you say this, I won't be sleepy... Liu Ying suddenly became interested and jumped off the rock: "Say more, talk more..."

It's just that his gaze gradually froze on the edge of the stream.

There, squatting a girl in a goose-yellow dress, her long hair was slightly wet and draped over her shoulders. She was a bit casual and relaxed, but also a little lazy. The most eye-catching thing was her cheeks stained with water droplets.

The eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, the sky is ghostly and moving, and the eyes are as bright and moving as the stars in the sky.

That person was Xu Negative whom Liu Ying hadn't seen for a long time.

So, he praised Liu Bang's vision more and more.

It is indeed a well-known lsp in China!

My family, I'm going to lick the dog... Liu Ying sighed in her heart, patted Zhang Buyi's shoulder lightly, and ran to Liu Bang who had returned from the sacrifice.

"Listen to me, thank you, because of you, the four seasons are warm..."

This wave is indeed revenge.
