Liu De took a step forward, raised his head and glanced at the Taiyi statue in the center of the hall. He respectfully followed the etiquette taught by Ji An, kowtowed, bowed, kowtowed again, and bowed again.
The temple congratulatory official standing aside cleared his throat and sang some congratulations in elegant language that even Liu De couldn't understand.
For Liu De, Yayu, the language of the Zhou Dynasty aristocrats, was not much different from a foreign language. He could only vaguely understand some compliments to the Four Emperors and the Eight Lords of Heaven and Earth.
After singing this melodious congratulation according to tradition, the temple consecrator knelt down, kowtowed and respectfully said: "Please come down to God, God will appear holy..."
The so-called God, God, is of course not the so-called god in the West in later generations.
In ancient pre-Qin myths and legends, the so-called God refers to the same god - Taiyi, the Emperor of Heaven.
Moreover, in addition to the Lord of Heaven, there are seven other Lords of Heaven and Earth recognized by society and the imperial court, namely the Lord of Land Houji, the Lord of War Chi You, the Lord of Yin, the Lord of Yang, the Lord of Moon, the Lord of Sun, and the Lord of Time, each of whom has his own
Place of worship.
In addition, the Han people believe that there are five other emperors who assist these eight gods and jointly control the heaven, earth, yin and yang, the past, the future, and the universe.
This has to be mentioned. In ancient pre-Qin myths and legends, there were originally only four emperors, with white, green, yellow and red as their temples. After Han Taizu Liu Bang took the throne of emperor, he asked others why the Qin people only
As for the sacrifices to the four emperors, I remember there were five. Where is the other one?
You have to understand that Liu Bang, a rogue, could understand the etiquette system of the Qin Dynasty and it was already very good. Then let him study why there are only four instead of the five that end with the Five Virtues. That is really difficult!
Of course, Liu Bang's ministers couldn't slap the emperor in the face, so they could only say it in a submissive manner, and we didn't know.
This was easy to handle. Liu Bang proudly canonized the fifth emperor, the Black Emperor, who symbolized the virtues of the Han family, and told others shamelessly: I know it, and I will treat you with five!
The emperor has given orders, who dares not to obey?
At this time, not only history must respect the emperor, but also the universe, physical movement, and the movement of stars in the sky and earth must respect the emperor.
As a result, there was an inexplicable addition of a god in the world.
Today, more than fifty years later, the Black Emperor established by Liu Bang is already a true god who enjoys sacrifices in the four seasons and blood food in the Spring and Autumn Period!
Thinking about these things, Liu De felt that compared to his ancestor Liu Bang, he was really inferior to creating an auspicious sign artificially!
When I thought about it, the little discomfort I felt in my heart disappeared.
Liu De then ordered people to offer three animals, Gui coins and other sacrifices.
Then he took the sacrificial text prepared by Ji An and started to sing and read: "Auspicious days come and good times come, General Mu will be happy to be the emperor..."
As soon as Liu De opened his mouth, there was a faint luster shining on the statue of God Taiyi in the main hall.
Everyone present was immediately startled, and then they came to their senses and knelt down. The temple official kowtowed respectfully and said: "God has come, and I am sincerely frightened. I respectfully invite your Majesty to enjoy it!"
Liu De nodded with satisfaction. This temple's Zhu Guan performed well and deserves an award!
Naturally, if you want to play auspicious games on other people's territory, you must have temple blessings to cooperate, otherwise, no matter how many tricks you play, you won't be able to play them.
Cooperating with the ruler and creating auspiciousness is originally the main job of the temple blessing. Otherwise, how do you think Liu Che went to a place and auspiciousness appeared there?
However, the fact that the statue of Taiyi God was glowing really shocked Zhi Du, Ji An, Zhang Tang and others who did not know the truth.
In fact, at this time, Liu Che had not unscrupulously broken the rules of the game, making people immune to auspiciousness.
At this time, neither the emperor nor the ministers dared to be too presumptuous in creating auspiciousness and playing with God. After all, in people's hearts, God was still in awe.
Therefore, the statue of Taiyi glowed faintly. As soon as this happened, everyone immediately knelt down respectfully, thinking that Taiyi God had really arrived.
Only Liu De laughed in his heart.
What auspiciousness!
It's obviously a trick that the temple's Zhu Guan learned somewhere!
Acting requires a complete performance.
Liu De also knelt down in cooperation and continued to recite the sacrificial inscription: "...The head of state is clear! His arms and legs are good!... New and new, the end and the beginning... I worship you, boy!"
After reciting the long sacrificial inscription, Liu De kowtowed again and again to worship the gods. Then, he suddenly said to his left and right: "Why do I feel like there is something under the futon? Please look at it for me to see if it is a gift from God!"
Zhidu and others came forward respectfully and worshiped the statue of Taiyi God with piety: "I respectfully ask for God's gift..."
So, I took the futon away and saw two young Ganoderma lucidum growing under the futon where the soil should have been.
"Ah! God has blessed me!" The temple blessing officer knelt down with an exaggerated expression, climbed to the place where the two Ganoderma lucidum plants grew, and before anyone could react, he divided the two magical plants by three and five.
Holding the Ganoderma lucidum that appeared in his hand, he knelt down and bowed to Liu De and said: "Your Highness, Taiyi God has given you auspiciousness. Ganoderma lucidum grows from the soil. This is the destiny of the Han Dynasty. Your Majesty's merits are inspired by heaven. Please take good care of it, Your Majesty."
These two auspicious plants, I present them to the Emperor!"
Liu De then immediately ordered Wang Dao: "Keep and take good care of these two spiritual things, and there must be no loss!"
"No!" Wang Dao said cooperatively, holding the two Ganoderma lucidum plants in his hands respectfully and serving them like treasures. Anyway, when he returned to Chang'an, he had to ensure that these two ancestral plants were safe and sound.
Ahem, it doesn't matter if you are sick, just change it to another one!
Liu De knelt down respectfully, kowtowed again and said: "God has mercy on me. I will worship you again. I will protect the God, do his best and bring blessings. He will show his holiness in front of me. The statue of the god will be bright, and the Ganoderma lucidum will come out, and I will bless the country..."
The key now is to quickly divert everyone's attention. If you really have to observe magic tricks carefully, they are all full of flaws!
To be honest, the tricks Liu De is playing now are all learned from Liu Che's later tricks.
Although they are all advanced tricks with successful experience, there is no guarantee that no smart person will see the clues. Even if they do, no fool will stand up and expose them.
At this point, it can be said that things are done. Although Liu De attributes all the honors and auspiciousness given by God to his father, the benefits to him are also real!
Although the auspiciousness sent down by the gods is for the emperor, as the chief priest, Liu De does not need to say anything. He will have a part of his halo attached to him. When he digs out the thing buried in Fenyin, by then, everything today will be over.
The auspiciousness will be certain.
A simple combing can even an idiot see it!
God first showed his blessings and sent down Ganoderma lucidum as a reward, and then guided Liu De to find the thing. Everything fell into place and spread to the people. N myths were immediately made up. (To be continued...)
ps: I really don’t know what to say today~ Hey, I can only say that people have misfortune and good fortune.
Today, Mr. Taishan and his mother-in-law were in a car accident when they were out. I still don’t know what the situation is, so I’m so worried!
