Personal Evaluation
Is said to "Spring Festival" and "calendar" is the invention of Zu Yi years when the woodcutter, and said years also invented the "sundial apparatus" and "Lou Hu" for the time. This is only a legend it is unfounded. Because our country on "sundial apparatus" in literature was first seen in "Book of Astronomy Sui Zhi", which refers to filling in Suikai Huang Yuan fourteen years (AD 595) invented the short film Ping-yee, that horizon sundial. The "Lou Hu," The use, according to "Zhou" records, the Xia Dynasty, there was the time.
Arowana Teng Xing
A long time ago, in the beautiful setting Yangshan, there is a modest village. End of the village hill, there are small stone house, there lived a man named years of youth. His family is poor, dig drug living with firewood. At that time Seasonal confused confused farmer can not farm. Years is a young shenanigans, trying to determined the seasons, but I do not know where to start.
One day, years mountain firewood, sitting under a tree to rest, shade movement inspired him, he system, a sundial, measuring the length of the day calculate the sun's shadow. However, the days of overcast cloud fog rain impact test in mind. When he wanted to do a record apparatus, good enough to make up for sundial. That day he dug up the mountain medicine, to the fountain water, spring water on the Cliff ticked rhythmically ringing, caught his attention. He watched with springs of God. Thinking for a while, back home, he painted a painting, tried, Lou Hu made a five. Since then, he measured the sun's shadow, hope leaking hard Fen Qin. Slowly, he found every more than 360 days, the length of day will be repeated from scratch again. The shortest day of the winter solstice. Then the emperor called Zu Yi, Seasonal disorder, so he was anxious to call Baiguan, get help towards meeting Seasonal disorders. Seasonal official Jiaoa Heng, sun and the moon do not know the law, said that people do whatever inadvertently offended the gods. Only devout kneel Festival, to get on God's forgiveness. Zu Yi Su bath on the fast, leading to the Temple of Heaven Baiguan sacrifice, and Chuanyu the country, to establish the station Heaven. But the sacrifice as an offering to go, it was not effective, seasonal usual mess; around the altar is again the people to build service, they come to donate, really mixed berberine bile, bitter sufferings and Canada. Years, could not, he took his audience with the emperor sundial and Lou Hu. Years met with the emperor, that the winter solstice point, about the sun and moon run cycle. Zu Yi listening to the heart rejoicing of turning in massive construction projects built before the sun and the moon in the Temple Court, building on the sundial Taiwan, made the Louhu Pavilion. Has allocated 12 million years serving boy, boy six years to keep sundial, six young boys keep Lou Hu, meticulously recorded, the report on time.
One day, Zu Yi to go to Sun Moon House Ah Heng asked about the situation the system calendar, pointing to grass years experience said: "The sun rises and sets 360, again and again to start from scratch. Coorong vegetation sub 4:00, round one twelve years. "Ah Heng 1, and were convinced that reason, the hearts are uneasy. He thought: If the seasons determined the years, the emperor is happy, reuse of years, who listen to me A balanced? A value like ah think ah, tried to get rid of years. One day Ah Heng Shan She inquire about the benefits a customer and send people to go home, put Jiu Yan, shows why, promise to re-gift. Night agreed to go assassinate assassin. Days pay two drums, while drinking joy assassin left the A scale, ran to the sun and the moon Court. Persevering, around the Temple of Heaven, sun, moon and you, there are strict guard, assassin can not be near to, to bow to the Sun and Moon Nock Court on being star-gazing in years to shoot. Who knows Assassin drink too much, the eyes grew faint, Arrows only shot of years of arm. Oh soon as years down to the ground in agony and Nazei public boy. Guards heard the commotion, turned out to, catch the assassin, twisted see the Son of Heaven. Zu Yi questioning the truth, heralds the A value for closing the prison, but also established print boarding house to visit Sun Moon House years. Years was very moved, pointing to apply star said: "The Star caught up with silkworm 100 applications star, astrology recovery, night cross the hour of midnight, the old year has been completed, Shi You start the spring, hope the emperor set a section of it." Zu Yi said : "Spring for the beginning of the year, it is called the Spring Festival. Aiqing cabinet, three contained no, Piganlidan, subject to full moon a lunar calendar system is really successful high moral weight. Now Ai Qing was crafty plot, and with me nursed back to health right to the palace. "years, said:" Although the grassroots lunar calendar, but not very accurate, the end of every hour left in a bit. if not the end of this end of the year when the profit go, Riyuerusuo, will come in the past wrong calendar. Morrison expectations of negative beings, well the emperor's grace, we would like to Suixin moon Court, carefully calculated, the calendar determined the grass. "
In this way, years in the sun and the moon Court, the careful observation of vegetation growth and decay of wheat beans, carefully calculated, the end of the year last month when the product into a profit on the inside. That year in May, Zu Yi to the Temple of Heaven-line offering, offering strike god, they boarded the sun and the moon Court, the ritual of the May peaches give years. Years presented lunar calendar, Zu Yi worked hard day and night looking at years, eyebrows and white, to white, too, was deeply moved, put lunar calendar named calendar, also closed years for the sun and the moon god of longevity. So, then it is also called the Spring Festival, the New Year when the house often hung birthday chart, a symbol of new life-year-old Tim, is also a function of years of high moral weight sent to nostalgia.
