When parents die, before offering sacrifices, brothers die; after the funeral, offering sacrifices are made. If they are in the same palace, even if they are servants or concubines, offering sacrifices are made after the funeral. During sacrifices, the host's ranks are divided, and the attendants are also divided. Even the Yu Fu are the same. From the princes to the scholars, during the minor sacrifices, the host spits when offering wine; the guests and brothers all spit at it. For the major sacrifices, the host spits, and the guests and brothers all drink it. Those who attend the sacrifices and funerals tell the guests to offer sacrifices but not to eat.

The Arrogant and Brave Concubine Marries the Wrongful Prince

The emperor went to the four directions and first burned firewood. The sacrifice in the suburbs was to welcome the arrival of the longest day, to report to the sky and to dominate the sun. The omen was in the southern suburbs, and it was to go to the yang position. The sacrifice was made by sweeping the ground, and it was to its nature. The utensils used were pottery and gourds, which symbolized the nature of heaven and earth. In the suburbs, it was called the suburbs. The sacrificial animals used were red, and the calf was used, and sincerity was valued. The use of pungent food in the suburbs was the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty. Divination in the suburbs was to receive orders from the ancestral temple, and tortoise shells were made in the ancestral palace, which meant respecting the ancestors and examining them personally. On the day of divination, the king stood in the marsh, and personally listened to the oath and accepted the teachings and admonitions. The order of offering orders to the treasury gate is to warn all officials. The order of the great temple is to warn the people. On the day of sacrifice, the king wears a leather cap to listen to the sacrifice report, showing the people that he is strict with the emperor. The mourners do not cry, dare not wear mourning clothes, sweep the road, and light candles in the fields. Without orders, the people obey the emperor. On the day of sacrifice, the king wears a robe to represent the sky, wears a crown, and has twelve tassels, which is the number of the sky. He rides a plain car, which is valued for its quality. The flag has twelve tassels, with a dragon pattern and the sun and the moon, which represent the sky. The sky shows its image, and the sage follows it. The suburbs are used to clarify the way of the sky. The emperor's ox is not auspicious, so it is made into a millet ox. The emperor's ox must be made in the third month of the purification month, and the millet ox is the only one. This is to distinguish between the gods of heaven and the ghosts of people. All things are based on heaven, and people are based on their ancestors. This is why they are in harmony with the emperor. The suburban sacrifice is a great report to the origin and the beginning.

The Gate to the Demon Realm

Zi Zhang asked about politics, and the Master said, "Teacher! Did I tell you before? A gentleman is clear about rites and music, and he only needs to raise and arrange them." Zi Zhang asked again. The Master said, "Teacher, do you think it is necessary to spread the table and the banquet, rise and fall, and offer wine and toast, and then it can be called rites? Do you think it is necessary to carry out the oracle, play the feather flute, and make the bells and drums, and then it can be called music? Speaking and practicing is rite. Acting and enjoying it is music. A gentleman strives for these two things and stands facing south, and this is how the world is peaceful. When the princes came to court, all things were in obedience, and all officials dared not to serve. Where ritual flourishes, the people are governed; where ritual is abolished, the people are in chaos. In a room with a clever eye, there is an outer corner, a seat has upper and lower parts, a car has left and right parts, a person who walks has a following, and a person who stands has an order. This is the ancient meaning. If there is no outer corner in a room, it will be in chaos. If there is no upper and lower part in a seat, it will be in chaos on the seat. If there is no left and right part in a car, it will be in chaos on the car. If there is no following person who walks, it will be in chaos on the road. If there is no order in standing, it will be in chaos in the position. In the past, the sage emperors and wise princes distinguished between the noble and the humble, the old and the young, the near and far, the male and the female, the outside and the inside, and no one dared to cross the road. They all came out from this road. "The three sons, after hearing this from the Master, were as clear as if they had just opened their eyes.
