Hanhou

Shangshu said that Shun was in Xuanji Yuheng, and Qi Qizheng.Look at the mountains and rivers, visit the gods, choose the auspicious sun and the moon, and see the shepherds of the four mountains.Tour Mount Tai in the east in February, Hunt Mount Heng in the south in May, Mount Hua in August, Mount Heng in November, and finally reach Mount Song.

Yu obeyed Shun's system and made hunting tours every five years.

Ziqi Lixia, climbed the five mountains, and worshiped mountains and rivers.The position was passed to Jie, the emperor had no virtue, Tang defeated violence, established a business, and became the Xia Society.

Shang passed down to Emperor Zhou, who was promiscuous and tyrannical. King Wu attacked him, established Zhou, and established Zhou rituals.

The ritual said: Worship the sky in the southern suburbs in winter, and worship the earth in summer.The Son of Heaven went on a hunting tour, offering sacrifices to famous mountains and great rivers.The Five Sacred Mountains are regarded as the Three Dukes, and Jiang, He, Huai, and Ji are regarded as the feudal lords.The Duke of Zhou was called king, and he sacrificed to Houji in Dingjiao, and worshiped King Wen in his ancestral home, all with music and dance.

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the emperor of Zhou declined, the feudal lords rose together, and rituals and music abolished.

At the end of the Warring States period, Qin destroyed the six kingdoms in Shandong, annexed the world, and established in place of Zhou.Qin Wangzheng called the first emperor, and the imperial edict said: "Zhou has the virtue of fire, and there is a symbol of red crow."In the past, Duke Wen of the Qin Dynasty won the black dragon, which is the auspiciousness of water virtue.Today is the time when the Qin Dynasty changed to the Zhou Dynasty, the time of water virtue.

Qin Cong Shuide, the color is still black, and the winter and October are the beginning of the year.

The first emperor went out of Xianyang to patrol the world, offered sacrifices to rivers, mountains and great rivers, took the sacrifice of Taizhu, and enshrined Mount Tai in order to reach heaven.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the system of the Qin Dynasty was inherited, and the emperor's clothes were still black, and the beginning of the year was October.

Emperor Wu made a tour of Fengchan in the east, summoned all the ministers to discuss, continued the Qin Fengchan ceremony, ascended the Fengfeng to repay the sky, and descended to the Zen to eliminate the earth.Then he dispatched thousands of men to repair the mountain roads, and three thousand knights in chariots and horses went to the top of Mount Tai to build square stones and build an altar.

Gongsun He and Zhang Sheng left Beijing in advance to supervise the construction project.

In February of the third year of Yuanshou, the road was completed and the altar on the top of the mountain was completed.

Knights of chariots and horses stationed on both sides of the mountain road to disperse the birds and beasts in the mountain.The servants brought corn and cloth back home. Depending on the distance of the journey, some could catch up with the summer seeds, while others could only welcome the autumn harvest.

In mid-April, the Son of Heaven came to Mount Tai.

The Sangong and Jiuqing accompanied them, and the chariots and horses they rode stretched for more than ten miles.

He rode on a black armor, held a long soldier, and wore a sword on his waist, guarding beside the chariot on which the empress was riding.Following the orders, dismounting and stopping, the movements are uniform and vigorous, and the sight is shocking.

Zhao Jiace rode in the team, saw the earthen temple at the foot of the mountain from a distance, and suddenly felt a burst of emotion.

When he was in Bianjun, did he ever think that he would have today?

At that time, all I thought about was to survive, to survive better, and to be able to protect those close to me.

"Your Majesty, please move."

The ceremony officer stepped forward and bowed to salute.

All the attendants wear leather bows and hold bows and arrows in their hands.The sorcerer holds the sacrificial vessel and stands opposite each other.

Liu Che stepped out of the car, wearing a black gown, with the sun, moon, stars, dragon, fire, Zongyi and other twelve chapter patterns woven on it.There is a leather belt around the waist, and a large belt, which hangs down, and is tied with beautiful jade.

As Liu Che stepped forward, the white jade beads on the front and back of the crown swayed slightly, and the beads touched lightly, shining brightly in the sun.

Halfway through the journey, the ritual officer presented a bow and led the bullock.

Liu Che raised his bow and set his arrows, his sleeves vibrated, and the arrows flew out like shooting stars.

"Feast!"

The steer fell to the ground, and the ceremonial officer held the head of the ox, the blood of the ox and five grains to sacrifice to Taiyi.

The rites and music sounded, and the sorcerers danced.

Liu Che held the jade letter in person, and then performed the suburban ceremony.

Amidst the music, the officials bowed their hands and worshiped together to worship the gods of mountains and rivers.

Chen Jiao pulled Liu Shi and saluted behind Liu Che.

The sound of the music suddenly became urgent, and the sound of drums was added in the middle. The sorcerer put his feet on the ground, held the sky with his hands, and sang an ancient tune with a long tail, as if he wanted to bring everyone back to the ancient times.

The long road is full of thorns along the way.

The ancestors overcame obstacles and trudged through hardships, while the descendants relied on their ancestors to forge ahead.

The towering mountains and rushing rivers all have the footprints of ancestors.

Shang destroyed Xia, Zhou Dynasty Shang.In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, the heroes competed for the throne.Qin ruled the world, and then Gao Zu Li Han, the descendants of Yan and Huang will always fight the waves and move forward bravely.

The drumbeat became more and more urgent, and the sorcerers shouted in unison.

The ritual officer held up the ritual vessel and shouted loudly: "Sacrifice!"

In an instant, the drums rumbled like a stone avalanche.

Liu Che folded his hands and performed the imperial salute facing the shrine.

After the ceremony, the drumming stopped abruptly.

The sorcerer stopped his movements, and a gust of cold wind blew up from the ground. The officials followed the emperor to worship again, put the soldiers on one knee, and shouted in unison: "May your majesty live forever!"

Standing in the team, Zhao Jia was infected by everyone's emotions, and shouted together.

At this moment, what everyone worships is no longer the emperor of the world, but the Huaxia that has been passed down for thousands of years, the Yanhuang that originated from the rivers and rivers.

"Libi!"

After the sacrificial ceremony, the ceremonial officer invited the emperor to climb Mount Tai to perform the ceremony of ascension.

Before climbing the mountain, Emperor Wu ordered his servant to lead Liu Ju to the front, and Zhao Jia to accompany him.

Such an approach caused quite a stir among the officials.

Liu Che has not established a crown prince so far, and among the princes, only Liu Ju accompanied him on a hunting tour, which is enough to attract attention.Then take him to climb Mount Tai, and even elevate his status invisibly.

It can be said with certainty that with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's attitude today, as long as Liu Ju doesn't make a big mistake, with his status as the eldest son of the emperor and his intelligence, he is already a certain heir to the throne.

Whether he can be consistent and not change because of everything in today's world, no one can say for sure.

When most people saw Liu Juyan's stable position, Chen Jiao, Dou Ying and Chen Wu were secretly worried, and the former made up his mind that after returning to the palace this time, he must invite a teacher for Liu Juyan, so as to hone his character.

As for Zhao Jia, it was even more unexpected.

What an honor it is to climb Mount Tai with the Son of Heaven. None of the three princes present had such an honor. Neither did Wei Yue, Li Danghu, Han Yan and Cao Shi, who were also the Son of Heaven's confidantes. Why did he win His Majesty's favor?

With all kinds of eyesight piercing his body, no matter how dull he is, he can detect something wrong.

What's more, Zhao Jia has nothing to do with these two words.

Walking in front of Liu Che, Zhao Jia leaned over to salute, knowing very well in his heart that after today, he would definitely stand on the cusp of the storm and attract the "attention" of the officials.If you don't want to be crushed by the waves, you must be more cautious than before and put in ten times and a hundred times as much effort.

If it can be done, the future can be expected; if it can't be done, Jiuqing is the limit, and it is impossible to go further.What's more, I can't even keep everything today.

The driving force behind all this is Liu Che himself.

Should it be the emperor's trust or other reasons, Zhao Jia couldn't figure it out, and didn't dare to think about it for the time being.After the salute, board the chariot according to the guidance of the ceremony officer, hold the reins in hand, and drive the chariot for the emperor's royal horse.

This should have been Gongsun He's responsibility.

Zhao Jia had no other choice but to serve as a servant once temporarily because of the appointment of the emperor.

Fortunately, he was born in the Northland, he is good at riding horses, and he is no stranger to driving carts.Waving the reins all the way, guarding the emperor along the road repaired by the servants.

Halfway through the car, Liu Che and Liu Ju got off the shaft of the car and turned to walking.

Liu Ju was still young, and after walking a certain distance, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and his breathing became unstable.Even so, he still gritted his teeth and followed Liu Che's footsteps, never feeling tired.

Climbing to the top of the mountain, the temperature drops suddenly.

The mountain still feels warm, but at the moment it is cold.

Liu Ju shivered, Liu Che looked down at him, and the ceremonial officer immediately put on a cloak to wrap Liu Ju tightly.He wanted to offer it to Liu Che, but he refused.

Under the altar built with square stones, Liu Che stood upright like a pine, his clothes were blown up by the wind, and his sleeves fluttered.

No matter how cold the wind is, he still stands still, holding a jade gui, facing the altar, and performing the imperial ceremony.

"I inherit the Supreme Being with a humble body, and I am afraid that I will not let it go. Wade is meager, and I don't know about rituals and music... So I climbed Mount Tai, and as for Liang's father, Hou Zen was solemn."

The sound was blown up by the wind and echoed in the clouds, like a sharp sword, piercing through the surrounding clouds and mist, straight to the sky.

Zhao Jia looked up at the sky, through the floating clouds, pictures flashed before his eyes.

The spirit of a teenager, the joke of a child.

The women gather by the river, and they don't forget to take care of the children while doing laundry. If they find someone naughty, they will immediately get up and grab them, and press them on their legs to teach them a lesson.

As the sun sets, smoke rises from the village.

The grazing teenagers and children return together and drive the sheep into the fence.

The men carried Leisi wooden plows, wiped off their sweat, and laughed loudly with each other; the old men sat in front of the house, weaving rattan baskets, or cutting bows and arrows.

The aroma of food wafts away.

The old people have white beard and hair, but they smile kindly and kindly.The smile was very familiar, it was the Chang Bo Tong He Lao in his memory.

On the prairie, several teenagers galloped past, smiling and waving to their companions.

Zhao Jia closed his eyes tightly, suppressing the soreness in the base of his nose.Ah Man, A Lu...the voices and smiles of these teenagers will always be frozen in front of their eyes, and will never change.

The cold wind howled, the picture blurred and receded, and Zhao Jia woke up from his memory.

After the Dengfeng ceremony was over, Liu Che turned around and bent down to hug Liu Ju.

Liu Ju apparently didn't expect it, he was taken aback for a moment, and then his face flushed red.

The ceremonial officials and sorcerers lowered their eyes, those who should organize the sacrifices should arrange the sacrifices, those who should burn the sacrificial rites should burn the sacrificial rites, and those who have nothing to do simply look up to the sky, pretending that the heaven and man are uniting, immersed in it and unable to extricate themselves.

Zhao Jia didn't have the ability, so he could only stand aside, waiting for Liu Che's orders.

"Do you know what I mean?" Liu Che said while holding Liu Shi while walking away from the altar.

"Your Majesty is stupid, please make it clear."

"My son-in-law is so stupid." Liu Che put down Liu Shi, took his hand, and said with a smile, "I often think back to what I looked like when I first met you. Looking back now, you can see that your wisdom is transcendent, far ahead of all your officials."

Zhao Jia had thought about it a long time ago. He tried everything possible to exert influence. With Liu Che's mind, he would find out sooner or later.Because I was prepared in my heart, I didn't panic when I mentioned it face to face.

"Your Majesty is extremely wise, I am ashamed."

"You misunderstood me." Liu Che stopped, and instead of addressing me, he called me. "Without the presence of the emperor, I might not be able to understand everything. Since ancient times, emperors have said that they are lonely, and they are most afraid of having no loyal words."

Having said that, Liu Che paused for a moment, then raised his voice: "My wish, you don't change your original intention, and help me create a great cause that will never die in the world."

To kill the enemy with a sword, the blade must be sharpened first.

Slashing the sword to kill bandits, the sword will be full of blood.

At this moment, Zhao Jia finally understood what Liu Che meant. He was indeed pushed to the forefront, but he also got a chance that no one else had.The emperor personally handed over the lever of history to see if he had the courage and ability to take it.

There is only one chance.

The road ahead is difficult, and Zhao Jia doesn't want to miss it, let alone miss it!

"The minister obeys the order!"

Zhao Jia leaned over to salute, Liu Che stretched out his arms to lift him up, and laughed heartily.

Liu Ju raised his head and looked back and forth between his father and Zhaohou. With the knowledge he had so far, he obviously couldn't understand what the scene in front of him represented.

In April of the third year of Yuanshou, the emperor granted Zen to Mount Tai.

In June, he patrolled the sea eastward, met alchemists, checked their cunning, and beheaded 11 people.

In October of the same year, the emperor issued a decree during his hunting tour to recruit all master craftsmen from all over the world to build a large ship and go to sea.Its purpose is not to find immortals, but to hear what Zhao Jia said, there are islands in the sea, which hide gold and can be mined in large quantities.

As for the source of the news, Zhao Jia cannot be said to be a later generation.Fortunately, there are alchemists who cast themselves into the trap, and one of them has actually been to the so-called "Penglai Island".All kinds of instruments of torture are laid out, no need to actually do anything, just pour the beans into the bamboo tube immediately, and confess everything you know, without leaking anything.

In the fourth year of Yuanshou, the emperor returned to Chang'an.

In the spring of the following year, Shengjia went out on a hunting tour in the south.

The following year, Shengjia turned to the north and went to the surrendered city in Monan. After hearing the news, the kings of the surrendered Hu tribe and the countries of the Western Regions rushed to offer tribute and express their admiration to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Some are thin-skinned and speak euphemistically; some are thick-skinned, and [-]% of them will rush to hug their thighs unless guards stop them.

For this kind of scene, the historian will record it in detail at first.After a few times, I found that the content is almost the same except for the name of the country and the tribe.After discussing with each other, they thought it was not a problem to go on like this, so they simply simplified the complexity and wrote a unified pen: Hanwei spreads far, understands people and harmonizes.All the Humu are vying for offerings, hoping to attach them.

Similar records appear repeatedly in the history books of the Han Dynasty.

When historians of later generations study history, no one would think that the root cause of this situation is that the historians are impatient with repetitive work and occasionally lazy.

In September of the sixth year of Yuanshou, Emperor Wu returned to Chang'an, and decreed to change the name of Ming Dynasty to Yuan Ding, and to change the calendar, so that October was no longer the beginning of the year, and it was replaced by January.

In the court hall at that time, the "battle" between Han Anguo and Zhidu had reached a fever pitch.Surrounding Zhao Jia, the four bigwigs kept fighting, and Han Anguo's reputation of "brave against cruel officials, the number one tough guy in court" resounded throughout Chang'an.

In September of the first year of Yuan Ding, the grain harvest in Shuofang County was abundant, and there was an endless stream of caravans traveling from south to north.

The news came from the Protectorate of the Western Regions that Daxia and Anxi each sent envoys, and they are now on their way.

The fights between the two countries stopped and stopped, and then continued to fight after a little relief. In order to make up for the losses, they annexed the surrounding small countries.

In view of this, the surviving survivors and tribes of small countries were forced to migrate, some to the east, crossing Congling into the Western Regions; some to the west, from Asia to Europe; The power was soon annexed and disappeared in the long river of history.

The imperial court received information and learned that there were many craftsmen among them, and decided to accept this group of people.

Wei Qing, Zhao Puonu and Zhao Xin went out to fight according to the order, and Huo Qubing and Wei Yu were both forwards.

In this Western Expedition, the Han army finally broke into Europe. It was also in this war that Huo Qubing and Wei Yu shined, becoming the youngest and most shining two of the Han Dynasty after Wei Yue, Li Danghu and others. general star.

Later, as long as the battle flag of the Han Dynasty appeared, except for Rome, which could be tough, the rest would flee.

If you can't beat it, you can only run.If you can't even run away, you can only resign yourself to fate.

In the third year of Yuanding, news of the great victory of the Han army came back.

Zhao Jia climbed up the city wall, and suddenly heard a cry, and saw the golden eagle passing through the clouds, wrapping its forearm with a cloak, and catching the bird of prey that fell from the sky.

He untied the bamboo tube from the golden carving's leg, took out the silk cloth, saw the familiar handwriting, and knew that Wei Yue would enter Chang'an next month, Zhao Jia couldn't help but curl his mouth.

Thinking of the news he had heard, and brushing his finger over the golden eagle's neck feathers, Zhao Jia thought about how to reply to the letter.

Should he state that he will be upgraded to the Tainong Order and will go to the capital next year at the latest, or should he keep it secret for the time being and give Wei Yue a surprise in the future?

"Why don't you hide it?"

Zhao Jia held his chin, and smiled with a bit of "bad intentions".

The golden eagle moved to Zhao Jia's shoulders, not forgetting to grab the cloak and put it under the sharp claws.After standing still, he looked sideways at Zhao Jia, seemingly not understanding what this wingless and unable to fly man was thinking.

The wind blows through Shuofang City, bringing the refreshment of lush vegetation.

The ruins of the past have now become a bustling city, and the flow of people shuttles through the commercial market, bustling and bustling.

When Zhao Jia was thinking at the top of the city, there happened to be a caravan returning from the west.

When the team reached the bottom of the city, Zhao Jia couldn't help smiling when he saw the familiar figure in front of the team.Wei Qingmo, who was in the team, seemed to have sensed something, looked up, saw the figure behind the city wall, and also rolled his eyes with a smile.

Time intersects at this moment, and years overlap in an instant.

The memories of youth have never been far away, and when I look back, they are all extremely clear.

Inspired by the memory, Zhao Jia suddenly changed his mind, turned around and walked down the city wall, preparing to write a letter by hand and send it to Yunzhong immediately.

He wanted to see Wei Yue more than ever.

As for the surprise, don't rush it for a while, the days will be long in the future.

The long river of time and space flows endlessly.

The pen and ink of the historian fell on the bamboo slips, and the writings were written in volumes.

Times have changed, and history books have reappeared. Among them, success or failure, right and wrong, have their own comments by future generations.
