Chapter 255 Sword Dance (1)
People who were secretly attached to Hong Zhou and the Empress were naturally very unhappy, but in Fu Heng's place, those who were not in the officialdom were not allowed to enter, and now it is no different from before.Hong Zhou wrote to the Nala family, saying that he finally understood that these years, the emperor would reprimand him in various ways whenever he had the opportunity, and it turned out that it was just to push Fu Heng to the top, so that he could teach himself that he had nothing to say. It is well-intentioned.Nala just shook his head after reading the letter.Wu Deya comforted him at home for several days, but Hongzhou didn't say a word.
In the west warm pavilion of the main study room of the "Jingsi Hall" in Yujing Garden, "Happy Spring Comes" written by the emperor's imperial pen hangs. Looking at this axis, Yingluo said to Fu Heng: The young master deserves his name. name!The emperor did not disappoint me in the end!Replaced the original one on the table with the large pen holder that the emperor gave in Ziguang Pavilion, "Praise to the Holy Lord and His Worthy Minister". "Ode to the Holy Lord" is a long article written by the king of the Western Han Dynasty in response to the edict of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty. Starting from the relationship between the monarch and his ministers, it encourages scholars to realize their ambitions and serve the monarchy.It is written in lower case, with elegant fonts and strong brushwork, with the style of Yu, Chu, Ou, and Zhao. Between the head and the end of the pen holder is the four-character seal script of "Xi Chao Chuan Gu" in underglaze red. Compared with the inscriptions of regular script, It looks outstanding and simple, and it is a famous product of Kangxi imperial kiln.
Then, I replaced the original landscape vase next to the desk with the large scroll vat of Jiulong Naohai blue and white, and put scrolls of large and small scrolls in it.This cylinder is also made in the Kangxi period, the glaze is translucent, and the dragon pattern is powerful and domineering.
Kowloon represents the ultimate majesty of the royal family.Each of the nine dragons has its own name:
King Guangren of Qinglong God, King Jiaze of Red Dragon God, King Ying of Huanglong Shenfu,
White Dragon God Yiji King, Black Dragon God Lingze King, Donghai Guangde Dragon King,
The Dragon King Guangli of the South Sea, the Dragon King Guangrun of the West Sea, and the Dragon King Guangze of the North Sea.
Looking at the third imperial gift newly hung on the wall behind the chair, "Snow Night Visiting Putu Axis", he said: Song Tai Zu Li Xian Corporal, is the emperor calling himself Song Tai Zu?Fu Heng just smiled.
Zhao Puben, the founding hero of the Northern Song Dynasty, was born as a petty official with poor knowledge, so Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of the Song Dynasty, advised him to read more books.From then on, every time he returned home, Zhao Pu would close the door of his room to fetch books and recite.The next day, when he went to court to deal with political affairs, he was always very quick.Later, the family members discovered that there was actually only one copy of "The Analects" in the house.
"Snow Night Visits Pu Picture Axis" was written by Liu Jun, a court painter of the Ming Dynasty. It tells the true story of Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin's snow night visit to Zhao Pu.According to the "Song History Zhao Pu's Biography": "Tai | Zu Shuwei traveled to the home of the hero, and Pu did not dare to wear clothes every time he retired from the court. One day, the heavy snow asked the night, and Puyi Emperor did not come out. After a long time, he heard the sound of knocking on the door. , Pu urgently came out, the emperor stood in the wind and snow, and greeted him with fear, the emperor said: "I have made an appointment with the king of Jin." When Taizong arrived, he set up a place to sit in the hall, burning meat with blazing charcoal, and drinking wine with his wife. The emperor called her his sister-in-law. I went to Taiyuan because of my plan."
In the middle of the picture, in the spacious Zhao Pu Mansion, two people sit around the fire in the front hall.Sitting first was Zhao Kuangyin, Tai Zu of the Song Dynasty. He wore a scarf hat on his head, a dragon robe with a round collar and narrow sleeves, and a brocade belt around his waist.With a solemn expression, he tilted his head to listen.The privy deputy Shi Zhaopu, dressed in casual clothes, sat down with his head sideways, arched his back and raised his hands, and talked respectfully and eloquently. His eyes were deep, his expression was focused, and his calm and sophisticated demeanor carefully portrayed his sincere counselor demeanor.
In front of the monarch and ministers, a huge charcoal stove was burning with a jug of hot wine in it, and several dishes of delicacies were placed on the carpet.Beside the side door on the right, Zhao Pu's wife is walking towards with a soup cup, half of her body exposed, her face seems to be hesitant and shy.
Surrounded by rocks and distant mountains, old trees and crows are shrouded in night, and bamboo leaves, branches, and roof ridges are covered with white snow.At the bottom of the picture, outside the half-closed mansion gate, stood four guards shivering from the cold. Some of them covered their ears, and some were breathing on their hands, as if they had been waiting for a long time.
While looking closely, Yingluo exclaimed: Don't ask where the hero came from!The king of Zhao Han helped the Tai | The ancestor Chen Qiao rebelled, the yellow robe was added to the body, and the power of the army was released with a glass of wine. When cup cups became popular, he was truly a minister of the country. "It's just that Zhao Pu's auxiliary political dictatorship, the courtiers are afraid of him, he can't compare with the chief assistant of our dynasty, "Sheji Minister" Fu Heng, a corporal with courtesy and virtuousness, admired by all officials!
Fu Heng said: "Zhu Xi commented that 'Zhao Han Wang Zuotai|The ancestral area is located in the world, received the power of many vassals and towns, and the 300-year peace of the country is not the work of the benevolent?" Ming Tai|Zu also said, "Pucheng Xianxiang, so that the generals will not release their military power early, then the world of Song Dynasty may not be the same as the Five Dynasties."It is said in history that the general public should not be engraved, but this is the only thing that contributes to the community and benefits the people. How can it be engraved less! 'Soldiers without bloodshed, this is the high state.No one is perfect, the emperor appreciates Zhao Pu very much.
After the Jinggong Ceremony, the emperor went to the "Spring Festival" in Xiyuan.Spring Coupling Zhai is located on the north shore of the South China Sea, west of Yi Nian Hall in Fengze Garden, and north of Jinggu.
Fengze Garden was built during the Kangxi period, with several acres of rice fields and several huts, which is an idyllic scenery.Dozens of trees are planted behind the garden, which is quite rural and wild, and it is the place where the emperor persuaded to teach farming and mulberry.Beginning from Kangxi and Yongzheng, before performing plowing ceremonies in person at Xiannongtan, the emperor first held a plowing ceremony on the one-acre three-acre land behind Fengze Garden.The harvested rice, in addition to being kept as seeds, should also be ground into fine powder, and offered to Fengxian Hall and Shouhuang Hall, etc., and the rest will be handed over to the Imperial Dining Room.
Jinggu is in Fengze Garden, but it is self-contained, known as "the garden within the garden".Spring Coupling House is the main building in Jinggu. It has single eaves and four corners with pointed roofs, purple stone pavement, red pillars and gray walls. It is five rooms wide and three rooms deep.The gallery on the lotus pond is zigzagging and connects the four banks.Zhaiqian Dieshan imitates Suzhou Lion Forest, which is quiet and deep. The whole building is dignified, elegant, solemn and vigorous. The emperor's "Fengze Garden Records" said: "The palace system in the garden is simple, not gorgeous."But this place is the most beautiful place in Xiyuan outside of Yingtai.
The two work together as a couple.The name of Spring Coupling Zhai means "the people are the food of heaven".There is a plaque in the north of Zhai, which says "the joy of the people", and there is a sentence "watching the harvest and praying for the new year" in the couplet, which speaks for itself.Therefore, after the emperor obtained the "Five Bulls Picture" by Han Huang, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, he hung it in the Spring Coupling Zhai to show his emphasis on agriculture. "Five Cows by Han Huang" was dedicated to the emperor.The emperor once wrote a poem about spring couple fasting:
Pass the meal away in a moment, and Chang Chun will greet him.
Wu Niu chatted about the ancient times, and Yi Fa was still cold.
Farming is only a matter of heart, and the spring is full of eyes.
When you are ready to try farming, you will be the official of the forest.
Concubine Rong came here early in the morning to serve the emperor with hangover soup, and when she heard Li Yu cheerfully announce that the leader of the military aircraft was announced, she told the emperor that she hadn't told her earlier.The emperor rinsed his mouth and asked with a smile: What do you want to know about Fu Heng?Concubine Rong replied with a smile: Let's compare you and him!The emperor's face immediately darkened, and Concubine Rong put her hands in his arms and said: "Who told you to start first?"Concubine, I just want to gag you!The emperor said: "It's unreasonable. Who started it first?"But let it go with a smile.Even Li Yu was dumbfounded, Master Rong is the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, she is the only one who dares to speak like that in front of the emperor!You especially are not talking about others, but Mr. Fu Heng!Madam Nalan did not dare to speak to the emperor like this!
In the evening, Concubine Rong played the new song "Red Thread Stealing Box" for the emperor with a pipa, saying that Mrs. Nalan asked Master Lu to compose it for Jinggong, and she was also playing it, but she was playing Guqin.The emperor just remembered that he had seen this score last time. He heard the sound of killing and attacking in the first part of the song, but the sound in the second part was changed to soft until there was nothing there. It was just imitating Tian Chengsi sleeping and lying down. The gold box fled.After the sound of the pipa stopped, he clapped his hands and said: Good!Well chosen, well done!
On the second day, the emperor announced that he would move to Yingtai in the South China Sea. He listened to the government and saw military aircraft at the Qinzheng Hall on the north shore of the South China Sea. He went to the Forbidden City to salute.The empresses, concubines, concubines and princes who were moved along with them were all arranged to live in Jilingyuan on the west coast of Zhonghai.When the previous dynasty received this news, there was a lot of discussion immediately. This shows that the emperor was more hands-off in government affairs, and in fact he relied more on Fu Heng, the chief minister of military affairs.People in the palace also whispered, saying that this must be Concubine Rong's idea, because Concubine Rong did not live in Jilingyuan, nor did she return to her Baoyue Tower on the south bank of the South China Sea, but lived with the emperor on Yingtai Island superior.
Yingluo also told Fu Heng that the emperor must have said that because of Shen Bi's advice, such a good and comfortable place beside the Forbidden City would be deserted, so it would be convenient for the emperor to come to Yujing Garden, and it would be convenient for Shen Bi to go to the Rong Palace. It is close to the mosque, but you are a little far from the military plane every day.Fu Heng smiled and said nothing, thinking: Fatima really has a lot of influence on the emperor.
Later, Yingluo and Aisha were invited by Concubine Rong to visit Baoyue Tower. Seeing the large layout and small details, all of them are in Hui style. Aisha found it very novel.Concubine Rong told them that it was very similar to her former home in Yili, and the emperor would sometimes come and live here with her for a few days.Yingluo nodded, feeling emotional for Huo Jizhan's infatuation.
Then, the fifteenth elder brother’s three washing banquets were also very grand, and the emperor personally participated in it. This only happened when the second prince, seventh elder brother, and twelfth elder brother were born. Although only concubines and above can participate, the palace Naturally, there was a lot of discussion here, and Nala knew that the emperor lost two children one after another earlier, but he was Jinggong, moved and washed three times, so he was very unhappy.
The three rites of washing in the palace are no different from those in the folk. "Washing three times" is also called "three dynasty washing children", which means bathing children.On the third day after the baby is born, the family holds a bathing ceremony for the baby and invites relatives and friends to wish the baby good luck.Bathe the baby three times, one is to wash the dirt and avoid disasters and difficulties; the other is to pray for good luck and good luck.It is said that this can wash away the dirt brought by the baby from the "previous life", making this life safe and auspicious.At the same time, it also has the function of cleaning the body and preventing diseases after the baby is born.In front of the five hundred arhats in the Falun Temple of Lama Temple, there is a wooden basin carved from golden nanmu, which is the emperor's own "washing three basins".
The three rites of baptism are divided into two parts: one is to invite relatives to have a banquet, and the other is to baptize the baby.Washing Sanjiu is to invite close relatives to have a meal of fried noodles.The staple food is noodles with fried sauce, which is the favorite of old Beijingers. It is called "washing three noodles", which means to pray for the baby's long life.
The most important thing about the three rites of baptism is to baptize the baby after lunch.The person who washes the third is usually the admission grandmother. "Birth admission grandma" is specialized in delivering babies and cleaning children, so it is also called "auspicious grandma".The cumbersome set of rules in the three baptisms are all presided over by the admission grandma.On this day, the main seats of ordinary people have to be reserved for the admission grandma.
In order to wash the child three times, we must prepare navel hairpins, aprons, crock stoves, millet, gold and silver zippers, flowers, flowers, roses, buckets, locks, scales, small mirrors, toothbrushes Tongue scrapers, green cloth tips, green tea leaves, new combs, new cages, rouge powder, pig pancreas soap balls, new towels, copper tea trays, scallions, mugwort balls, baking cages, incense candles, money and food paper yards , raw and boiled eggs, sticks and so on.It is also necessary to boil the water of Huai Tiao Pu Ai, and then prepare some longan, lychee, peanut, chestnut, and dye it red with rouge.
Before washing three, we have to arrange the environment.First of all, an incense table must be set up on the front of the outer hall of the delivery room to enshrine the magic codes of thirteen goddesses, including Bixia Yuanjun, Qiongxiao Empress, Yunxiao Empress, Cuisheng Empress, Sending Children Empress, Beancurd Empress, and Vision Empress.This is to protect the child from illness and disaster, and to grow up safely.
The censer on the table is filled with millet, which is used as incense ashes for incense.The wax skewer is inserted with sheep oil and small red wax specially used for sacrifices, also called "shuangbaoer", and the god-worshiping money and food are pressed under the incense burner.There are statues of "Kang Gong and Kang Mother" in the bedroom, and they are offered with three or five bowls of sweet-scented osmanthus or oil cakes.When the time comes, bitter water boiled from locust trees and mugwort leaves is poured into the large copper basin for the children's bath, and other supplies are also placed on the kang.
The old women and daughters-in-law who participate in the three baptisms have to add a small spoonful of water to the basin, and then put some coins first, which is called "adding the basin".If you have money, put gold and silver coins, and if you don't have money, put copper coins. When you put it, you have to say auspicious words.Then put peanuts, longan, chestnuts, lychees, a few red and white eggs, and see what is put, and the grandma will give the corresponding congratulations.After adding the basin, the midwife grandma stirred the water in the basin with a mallet and began to bathe the child.At this time, there are many congratulations to say, "wash your hair first and become a prince; wash your waist after that, and each generation will be better than the previous generation."
After taking a bath, light the mugwort leaf ball, hold it with sliced ginger, and burn the baby's forehead and important joints.Then dress up the baby, dip a new green cloth with green tea, wipe the baby's gums, and say some auspicious words, such as "Three combs, two combs, wear a red top when you grow up; draw eyebrows on the left, and temples on the right, Find a daughter-in-law (son-in-law) to live in the fourth village; brush your teeth, rinse your mouth, and talk to people so that you don’t lose your face.”Then roll the egg on the baby's face and say, "Roll the face with the egg, the face is like egg skin, the willow red is like white, you are really a lover." If the baby cries during bathing and grooming, it is a good omen .This is called "sound basin".
After taking a bath, you need to pat the baby three times with scallions. This is called "one dozen smart, two dozen smart".Then, the child's father threw the green onion on the roof, implying great wisdom.Next, use the weight and the lock to make a few gestures on the child, which means that the child can have a pivotal position in society like a weight, and be stable and cautious.Then put the baby in the tea tray, tuck the baby with the prepared gold and silver zippers or jewelry, and say: "Tuck the gold on the left and the silver on the right, if you can't spend it, reward the servants", which means wishing the child grows up. Extra cash.Use a small mirror to take a picture of the baby's buttocks, and say: "Use a mirror to take a look at the buttocks, and the poop during the day will be clean."
At this time, the children's business is over, but the adults will then sieve a few paper pomegranate flowers into the oven, wishing the children no smallpox and healthy growth.Then the old woman invites the god codes of the thirteen empresses, the money and food for worshiping the gods together with the fragrant roots, and sends them to the courtyard, where the admission grandma holds the god codes of "Kang Gong and Kang Mother" with copper chopsticks and incinerates them.Then wrap the burnt ashes with red paper and press them under the kang mat, so that these gods will stay on the kang forever, and bless adults and children to be safe.Afterwards, the admitted grandma greeted the family with a "congratulations", which was regarded as a gift.
It is not easy for ordinary people to have all the things, and the procedures cannot be completely followed, but it is naturally different in the palace, especially Yilu and his wife are extremely solemn, even more serious than the chief of ceremonies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.It's just that the indecentness of the emperor throwing onions is omitted.

[Chunou Zhai] It is often referred to as Chunouzhai. In fact, lotus root should be called “coupling”, without the initials of cursive. The history and origin are as shown in the text.The formation of the Zhongnanhai Sea began in the Jin Dynasty, and then expanded through the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.It was called Xiyuan in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. After the Qing Dynasty established its capital in Beijing, all the inner courts in the imperial city were abolished, and a large area of Xiyuan was converted into residential buildings. At the same time, "inner red walls" were set up around the Beihai, Zhonghai, and Nanhai. The range retreated to the inner red wall.Compared with the Forbidden City, the Qing emperors preferred to live in gardens. Emperors Shunzhi, Kangxi, and Qianlong all built palaces and pavilions in Xiyuan as a place to avoid summer heat and listen to government.During the Tongzhi and Guangxu years, when the Empress Dowager Cixi and the emperor moved from the Summer Palace to the Forbidden City in December according to the ritual system, they mostly lived in Xiyuan and only went to the Forbidden City to pay respects.After the Reform Movement of [-] failed, Empress Dowager Cixi imprisoned Emperor Guangxu in Yingtai in the South China Sea.The location and building of Chunouzhai are shown in the text. It is said that it was once a secret theater for the emperor and his concubines.After Puyi ascended the throne, he built the Prince Regent's Mansion in Jilingyuan on the west coast of Zhonghai.During Yuan Shikai's period, it was renamed Zhongz Nanhai.
[Red Thread Stealing Box] See Tang Yang Juyuan's "Red Thread", Ming Liang Bolong's "Red Thread Girl" drama and "Double Red Tale" legend.It is said that Tian Chengsi, the Jiedu envoy of Wei Bo, wanted to annex the land of Xue Song, the Jiedu envoy of Luzhou, Xue Song was very worried.Xue Song's servant Hongxian has swordsmanship, so he volunteered to inquire about Tian Chengsi and give him a warning.On duty, Tian Chengsi was sleeping and lying down, and the red thread wanted to assassinate, but later changed to steal Tian Chengsi's gold box and returned.Tian Chengsi sent troops to pursue him, but was defeated by the red line.The red thread presented the box to Xue Song, and Xue Song repaired the letter and attached the box to Tian Chengsi.Tian Chengsi was shocked. He knew that there was a strong general in Xue Song's department, not an opponent, but a good relationship with Xue Song.
