Xuancheng Past

What are the four spirits? The unicorn, the phoenix, the tortoise and the dragon are called the four spirits. Therefore, the dragon is used as livestock, so fish and tuna are not succumbed; the phoenix is ​​used as livestock, so birds do not degenerate; the unicorn is used as livestock, so beasts do not go wild; the tortoise is used as livestock, so human nature is not lost. Therefore, the ancient kings held yarrow and tortoise, arranged sacrifices, buried silk, announced prayers and speeches, and established systems, so the country has rituals, officials have guards, things have duties, and rituals have order. Therefore, the ancient kings worried that the rituals would not reach the lower classes, so they offered sacrifices to the emperor in the suburbs to determine the position of heaven; they offered sacrifices to the gods in the country to arrange the benefits of the land; the ancestral temples were used to establish benevolence, the mountains and rivers were used to worship ghosts and gods, and the five sacrifices were used to establish affairs.

The guest must face south. The east is spring, and spring means stupidity, and the one who produces all things is the saint. The south is summer, and summer means borrowing. To nurture, grow, and borrow is benevolence. The west is autumn, and autumn means sorrow. To be sad with time is to observe and keep righteousness. The north is winter, and winter means the middle, and the middle is to hide. Therefore, when the emperor is established, the left is the saint and the right is the benevolent, and the right is the righteousness and the hidden. The host must face east, which is the host and the guest. The host must live in the east, and the east is spring, and spring means stupidity, and the one who produces all things; the host creates it, and the one who produces all things. The moon is formed in three days, and the three months are formed in time. Therefore, there are three concessions in etiquette, and three ministers must be established when a country is established.

〔There are ten relationships in sacrifice〕Spreading the banquet and setting up the same table is to rely on the gods; calling the gods in the room and leaving the temple is the way to communicate with the gods. The ruler welcomes the sacrifice but not the corpse, which is to separate suspicion. If the corpse is outside the temple gate, it will be suspected by the minister, but if it is inside the temple, it will be safe for the ruler; if the ruler is outside the temple gate, it will be suspected by the ruler, but if it is inside the temple, it will be safe for the minister and the son. Therefore, those who do not leave the temple are clear about the righteousness between the ruler and the minister. In the way of sacrifice, the grandson serves the king's father's corpse. The one who serves the corpse is the son of the one who offers sacrifice; the father faces north to serve it, so as to clarify the way for the son to serve the father. This is the relationship between father and son. On the fifth day of the funeral, the king washes the jade cup and offers it to the nobles; on the seventh day of the funeral, the king offers the jade cup to the great officials; on the ninth day of the funeral, the king offers the scattered cup to the scholars and the officials, all in order of seniority. This is to clarify the order of superiority and inferiority.
