Catch the week?

When Li Mingda heard what his eldest grandson told him, does Li Shimin still believe this?

It seems that Li Shimin was the one who died after taking the elixir in the end.

Zhuzhou, also known as wiping, test, nianzhou, test week. This custom has been circulated among the people for a long time. It is a ritual held when a child is one year old to predict the future and temperament. It is the first birthday anniversary.

way to celebrate.

It is the same traditional birth etiquette as the birth announcement, the three-day baptism, the full-moon ceremony, the hundred-day ceremony, etc. Its core is the wish for the continuation of life, success and prosperity, reflecting the deep love of parents for their children.

It is a family game in nature, a kind of faith and custom with human ethics and the pursuit of child-rearing. It also objectively tests how the mother leads and how to carry out enlightenment education.

The ritual of "catching Zhou'er" is usually performed before eating the lunch meal of "longevity noodles".

The more sophisticated wealthy households would display a large case in front of their bed (kang), including: seals, scriptures from Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, pens, ink, paper, inkstones, abacus, coins, account books, jewelry, and flowers.

, rouge, food, toys, if a girl is "catching Zhou'er", she should also add shovels, spoons (cooking utensils), scissors, rulers (sewing utensils), embroidery thread, patterns (embroidery utensils), etc. Most families are limited to economical

The conditions are mostly simplified, and only use a copper tea tray, which contains a private school enlightenment textbook "Three Character Classic" or "Thousand Character Classic", a writing brush, an abacus, and a set of sesame cakes and oil fruits.

For girls: a shovel, a pair of scissors, and a ruler each. The adult will bring the child and make it sit upright without any inducement. Let it choose, depending on what it grabs first and what it grabs later. Use this to measure

Determine his or her interests, future, and career.

If the child grabs the seal first, it means that when he grows up, he will take advantage of heaven's kindness and have a prosperous official career; if he grabs the stationery first, it means that he will be eager to learn when he grows up, and he will have a beautiful article, and he will eventually be able to get the third grade; if so

If a child grasps the abacus first, it means that he will grow up to be good at managing money and will have a successful career. If a girl first grasps sewing tools such as scissors and rulers or cooking utensils such as shovels and spoons, it means that she will grow up to be good at housework.

On the contrary, if a child grabs food or toys first, he should not be dismissed as "delicious" or "fun" on the spot. He should also be described as "when the child grows up, he will be blessed and good at 'carpe diem'"

". In short, the elders have high hopes for their children's future, and they only wish them well on their first birthday.

By using the child to catch Zhou'er, we objectively test how the biological mother, nurse, and wet nurse guide the child and how they carry out enlightenment education. Therefore, some parents are not superstitious, but still advocate that the child be caught in Zhou'er. This is also the case

One of the reasons why a custom can be spread among the people for a long time.

By the Tang and Song Dynasties, this custom had spread from the south of the Yangtze River to the land of China, and gradually became popular in all parts of the country. It was called "Trial" or "Zhou". Meng Yuanlao of the Song Dynasty recorded in his "Tokyo Menghualu" Yuzi:

After giving birth to a child, "on the next birthday, list the dishes on the ground, the fruits and trees, food and drink, official certificates, pens and inkstones, counting scales and other things that are used for scriptures, scrolls, needles and threads, and observe which ones are picked first. This is called a 'test'."

', this is a great gift for a child."

Therefore, the eldest grandson attached great importance to Li Mingda's birthday and started to make arrangements one month before Li Mingda's birthday.

The eldest grandson and Li Shimin discussed how big the ceremony should be for Li Mingda. After all, this was their new beloved daughter, their legitimate daughter.

To this day, Li Mingda still doesn’t know why his mother’s eldest grandson is so strong. Could it be that history has taken a wrong turn somewhere, or is it just a parallel world? If it is really a parallel world, the historical figures here may

There are some discrepancies that I cannot rely on my own memory to recognize.

Li Mingda glanced at Li Zhi who was not far away from him, and rubbed it, dear brother, in order for us to eat well and drink well in the future, Datang Wuyou can only ask you to work harder.

The eldest grandson seems to have no signs of premature death, so it is a good thing for Li Zhi and Li Mingda. Under the protection of the eldest grandson, Li Mingda and Li Zhi can fully grow up in this harem.

The bad news is that Li Chengqian's eldest grandson will not end up rebelling and being cut down in history, which means that Li Zhi will most likely have no chance of becoming emperor in the future.

Li Shimin knew about Li Chengqian's change, but why he didn't take action until finally Li Chengqian joined hands with Hou Jun to raise troops to rebel and was suppressed. It was because his position as emperor was that he killed his own brother and younger brother and still stood by him.

Obtained from the body of my sister Li Xiuning.

And of course his father, Li Mingda’s grandfather Li Yuan.

In the ninth year of Zhenguan (635), Li Yuan died of illness. His posthumous title was Emperor Taiwu, his temple name was Gaozu, and he was buried in Xianling.

So Li Mingda had never seen him before, but just made a quick impression in the portrait. Li Shimin looked exactly like him, fat and kind-hearted.

It was taboo to talk about Li Yuan in the palace, and neither the eldest grandson nor Li Shimin mentioned it. Li Mingda was one year old, and he never asked this question, which aroused Li Shimin's suspicion.

Regarding his current body, Li Mingda found that he was indeed out of breath when running. As for his physical condition, it seemed that Sun Simiao needed to take a closer look.

The night before catching the week

Li Shimin came to the palace where his eldest grandson lived every day. Looking at Li Mingda in his eldest grandson's arms, he walked up with a smile, picked up Li Mingda, and teased him.

Li Mingda decisively gave up his moral integrity, smiled cutely and said "Father is good" in a soft and waxy voice, which can control most lolita on the earth to death.

"Well, weird, isn't the little Sizi a good boy?"

"Be good"

"Tomorrow is your birthday."

"?????" Li Mingda decisively showed a confused expression, saying that he didn't know what the situation was.

Li Shimin looked at the cute Li Mingda, hugged him and smiled: "Xiao Sizi, you will know tomorrow."

Empress Changsun said from the side: "Erlang, I will only ask my uncle to come over tomorrow. As for Cheng Guogong, Li Guogong, are they suitable?"

"Both Yaojin and Jingde wanted to see if the language spoken by the man back then was true. Moreover, Yaojin, an old guy, was also clamoring to marry Mingda. He had several fights with Jingde over this."

"It's been so many years, do they still remember?"

"Yes, in the second year of Zhenguan, eight years have passed in the blink of an eye. I really can't believe that I have come all the way. I was on the edge of the Wei River back then."

Li Shimin seemed to recall something, and his breathing became a little rapid. The emperor was an emperor after all, and he quickly calmed down.

He looked at Li Mingda with strange eyes and rubbed Li Mingda's little head...
