On the winter solstice festival in the eighth year of Yuanshuo, while Liu Yan had a big banquet in the palace city, the people gathered from all parties were also entertained.
Before Liu Che changed the Yuan Dynasty, the winter solstice festival was actually the new year of Zhuxia civilization, that is, October of each year was the beginning of the new year, and then it was changed to the first day of January of each year as the new year.
Each festival of Zhuxia civilization has its own stress. Generally, it is what major events have happened, and what particularly meaningful things some great people have done on that day.
Nuo dance is a dance that existed in the Xia and Shang Dynasties. It evolved into a kind of trick to expel bad luck in the spring and autumn and Warring States periods. The attention paid to Nuo dance in the early Han Dynasty was raised. Every winter solstice, the royal family will invite the famous wuzhu to the Imperial Palace to dance Nuo dance, which means to get rid of the bad luck of the year and be more happy and healthy in the coming year.
Nuo dance is a kind of skill. And the meaning of the art of geisha covers quite a lot, generally refers to artistic performance. It's just that for a long time, it has something to do with Fenghuaxueyue, such as cultivating famous prostitutes. At present, there is a trend to cultivate famous prostitutes in the south. They just raise beautiful girls and actors, but they don't appear in public to provide special services for the masses.
Every year on the winter solstice festival, the Han government also arranges Nuo dance. When Liu Yan entertains the ministers, there are dancers with masks and strange clothes to dance.
In modern times, Nuo dance is still handed down, but the form and clothing of dance will vary from place to place, but the "function" is actually the same. It is attached with the meanings of exorcism, epidemic expulsion, sacrifice and so on, and classified into folk dance. However, at present, the greatest use of Nuo dance is displayed in Nuo instrument, that is, a link necessary for sacrifice.
"How is it similar to our prayer and prayer dance?"
The speaker came from Frank. His name was goodhouse. He said the Nuo dance he was dancing.
So it's strange that many countries and nations on the earth are very far apart. Without communication, many behaviors have the same consistency. It's not the behavior of eating and sleeping. It's something that can be summarized into culture and art and quite a lot of appellations.
Frank, Burgundy and Alemanni belong to the Germanic family. When holding religious 1 ceremonies, their priests usually wear a very strange mask and dance similar to Nuo dance. Similarly, they also recite spells that no one can understand.
Nuo dance is really a part of primitive belief. It is generally used by various nationalities in various religious 1 occasions. However, the German priests are very noble and special occupations, and the number of priests is very rare. The wuzhu profession in the Han country has long been broken, and those who dance Nuo dance are temporary guest stars.
If you look at the people who dance Nuo, you will see a tall and strong figure. The other dancers are holding flags in one hand and a wooden shield in the other hand. He is a left stick, double-edged spear and a right hook halberd.
The double-edged spear and hook halberd are ran min's characteristic weapons. The man who is tall and strong is really him.
In other words, what does ran min do for the fun of Nuo dance in the winter solstice festival? It's not that he thinks he's angry enough to play a guest role.
It seems that it can also be mentioned. Zhuxia civilization believes that evil Qi can exorcise evil spirits. Nuo dance was originally to exorcise evil spirits. So not only ran min, but also Li Tan, Huan Wen, LV Tai and Xie an are guest stars. It is these people who don't use their own weapons. They are also the leading dancers of Nuo dance, which makes Nuo dance have a strong killing momentum.
It is because their Nuo dance has a strong momentum of killing and cutting. As a result, those Germanic people feel very similar to their own Nuo dance. That is, the Germanic Nuo dance also has an obvious momentum of killing and cutting.
"Is there any connection between the cyris and the Germanic?"
"The two nations are so far apart that there can be no connection."
Olus Setus Cicero looked at the Han Nuo dance and the Germanic Nuo dance, so it was like asking casually.
In other words, the Germanic name is what the Romans called a group of barbarians. In fact, the barbarians were not the same nation. The Romans used the same name for them, which really made a group of barbarians think they are the same race.
What the Romans did was an act of lifting a stone and smashing their own feet. Originally, all barbarian tribes would fight with each other. After the barbarians found that they were "their own people", it was difficult for the Romans to break through the barbarian tribes.
It was not only the Romans who did such stupid things, but also the various civilizations. Some tribes were not the same nation at all, but were classified as the same nation by the Central Plains Dynasty.
There used to be more than one Hun tribe in the grassland, such as the Aries King tribe, the XiuTu King tribe and the hunxie King tribe. They were not Huns, but they were recognized as Huns by the Western Han Dynasty. As a result, they really came together, far from the above tribes, and many miscellaneous Hu were forced into the camp belonging to the Huns.
The later Eastern Han Dynasty did the same thing. The sheep herding tribes in the northwest territory were not a nation at all. The Han people first created the word "Qiang" to describe those tribes, gradually regarded them as the same nation, and then those tribes really formed the same nation and united to harm the Northwest Territory of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
The stupidest thing is not to pinch the original barbarian tribe into a nation, but to create a nation out of nothing. How to create? For some reason, it may be for interests or officials for political achievements, gather a group of people and tell them: what kind of race your ancestors used to be and what kind of race you will be in the future. If you agree to have government subsidies and bonus points, let alone no subsidies and bonus points, I will punish you!
"It's said that the Han people have been expelling and eliminating the alien races they don't agree with?"
"The ancestors of the Han people have been doing this for a long time. The contemporary Han people tend to integrate and digest the foreign nationalities."
Since the Romans were present on this occasion, it's unreasonable that the Persians didn't join the fun. Moreover, people from all over the world were curious about what the official banquet of the Han country was like. They would try their best to get together without being invited.
Kianush Alta Aldasher said that after the Han Army finished expelling the Hu prisoners, it was still chasing and killing some escaped Hu prisoners. He also heard that the Han army killed thousands of miles to a very cold place in order to pursue and kill foreigners. He was a little afraid of the Han people's concept of revenge.
"Only a single nation is the most stable in a country. The more nations there are in a country, the greater the contradictions. When the main nation is weak, the division of the country is doomed."
"That's what I said. Why don't you Romans let go of slaves and continue to transport slaves from all places back to their homeland."
Foreign diplomatic missions are arranged in an area, and their location belongs to the corner. It is obvious that the location arrangement is still outside those cultural people invited.
"It's a nation, not a slave!"
"Ha ha!"
Kyanoush, not far apart Alta Aldasher and olus Setus Cicero looked at each other. If special effects could be added, it would be a ferocious flash of lightning in his sight.
The Romans are still a loser. In the past, millions of people dared to get twenty or thirty million slaves. Later, the gap between Romans and slaves decreased again and again, but it has always been maintained at the ratio of five to one. Their excellent quality of life is based on the exploitation of other ethnic groups. Once the external exploitation is reduced or stopped, it is basically time for trouble at home.
Among the cultural people who gathered in old Chang'an, quite a few of them were unaware of the existence of foreign missions. It's because the Han government doesn't think it's good to show off when foreign envoys come. It really doesn't take this as the beginning of the country's prosperity.
Literati are quite excited about the arrival of foreign envoys. They advocate that all countries come to Korea and regard such things as national projects. Some literati pay no attention to Nuo dance and make all kinds of guesses about those crooked nuts curiously.
"It's far enough, that is, the number of countries paying tribute is less."
"When the Han side ends the war, foreign countries will come to Korea."
"If it wasn't the face project of the Sima family, there were two big countries in the world."
"I heard that Rome and Persia are both powerful countries with vast territory and large population. They are all asking for alliance from the Great Han?"
"The Han Dynasty has formed an alliance with Persia to jointly deal with the Gupta Dynasty. There are four other countries to form a five nation coalition."
If you didn't know what happened to Rome and Persian sassanne, you would gradually know more about the two countries in the exchange. Some people also quoted scriptures to talk about the Persian Sassanian, such as the period when Parthia welcomed the Han envoys with tens of thousands of troops in the Western Han Dynasty. For Rome, they did not find any records from the classics.
In fact, the Romans had been to the Central Plains Dynasty before. That was during the period of emperor yuan of the Han Dynasty. Some people made a comprehensive adaptation of that period into a film, that is, the screenwriter made a few random changes and engaged in 100000 Roman troops. In order to chase and kill a group of people, they went outside Yanmen pass, and even didn't know whether the grassland outside Yanmen pass was the western region or not, Another nonsense is to portray Huo Qubing as a pacifist.
This is not over yet. In order to have a good box office in the white skin country, the Western Han Dynasty was completely blacked out. Don't think about how the 100000 troops of the Romans arrived in the so-called western regions. It can be said that the Han Empire ignored the 100000 troops of the Romans and solved the Roman army only with the arrival of the troops of the Sabbath Empire (Parthia).
The Nuo dance is over. Ran min takes the lead to show Liu Yan where he is. The people in the hall stand up together with ran min's actions, all of them salute.
Of course, Liu Yan was the throne sitting on the steps. He raised his right hand and asked falsely. Cui Zongdai shouted the word "flat body" for the loud voice.
Today's Liu Yan has to wear a full set of clothes. Someone found the difference between that crown suit and the previous one.
Before, Liu Yan wore a crown suit in the style of Wang Jue, but today it is a full set of the crown suit of the son of heaven. The people who found this didn't shout, but they had to be excited.
In the third year of Yuanshuo, Liu Yan offered sacrifices to the ancestors and dead soldiers of various Xia dynasties in Mount Tai. At that time, he had announced to the subjects and ancestors of the world and the four great gods, and completed the ceremony of ascending to the throne of the son of heaven.
The son of heaven is the patriarch of Zhuxia. Ascending the throne does not mean ascending the throne and becoming the emperor. After becoming the son of heaven, it means being able to lead the Miao people of Zhuxia from the legal system and legal principles. Therefore, the highest power change of Zhuxia civilization has always been to hold the sacrifice of ascending the throne of the son of heaven first, and then hold the ceremony of claiming the emperor. If anyone claims to be the emperor without the throne of the emperor of Jin, or claims to be the emperor first and then the emperor of Jin, making jokes is a small matter, and his rule will become unstable.
Of course, it doesn't mean that after becoming the son of heaven, the ruling position will be very strong. It depends on whether the country can be peaceful and the people can be ruled, or whether the country can be strong and prosperous, but it's not that the son of heaven is really critical. It represents a "new moon" position. In all the dynasties of Zhuxia civilization, the emperor and the emperor were always confused by people with unknown circumstances, but the power of the head of a family was greater than that of the head of state (the emperor). The emperor could kill heaven, but the head of state had to follow the law.
Liu Yan seldom wears the emperor's crown clothes. In the past, the winter solstice feast basically wore the king's crown clothes. This year, he changed into the clothes of the crown of the son of heaven. First, there were foreign envoys present, and second, he hinted that he was about to ascend the throne and become emperor.
"Let's go."
Liu Yan's voice is not big, but it can spread well.
People who had been ready for a long time at the back of the hall rushed out. Liu Shen, Liu Yan's eldest son, followed by Liu Ming, Liu Yan's eldest son, and then some younger sons of Sangong Jiuqing.
The children are dressed in costumes. Because they have been taught etiquette and rehearsed before, they are arranged and walk in a decent manner.
Liu Shen was seven years old after the Chinese New Year. He was still young and had no facial features. His clothes and decent clothes showed the grace of the eldest son of the royal family. While walking in the front, he held a plate with some food seeds in his hands. First, he presented the plate to Liu Yan, implying a bumper harvest in the coming year. He then took the plates containing copper coins, silver, gold, jade, agate and jade from Liu Ming and presented them to him, implying the prosperity of the country.
"What a complicated look." Kianush Alta Aldasher looked at the little adult child and offered more than a plate: "what is the special culture?"
No one answered kianush Alta After aldasher's question and offering, a group of musicians appeared. They arranged their instruments and waited quietly.
Ran min and others, who changed their vassal crown clothes, appeared and went to their own position. The sound of a chime first appeared, and then various musical instruments joined in.
"Yo Yo, Lu Ming, eating wild apples. I have a guest..."
Liu Shen took the lead in singing "deer singing", and the children followed the chorus.
In the stage of Hu Lu's rule over the Central Plains, not only did "Luming" disappear, but in fact no one dared to engage in many long traditions. For a considerable number of people, being able to sing "Luming" at banquets represents an indispensable inheritance.
Later, all the Han people in the hall sang along, and everyone was intoxicated
