Little Taoist Priest

The emperor's great wax is eight. Yijishi first made wax, and wax means to ask. In the twelfth month of the year, all things are gathered together and asked to be feasted. The wax sacrifice is: the master first saves, and the priest saves. Sacrifice a hundred kinds of things in return for saving. Sacrificing farmers and postal officials, birds and beasts is the highest level of benevolence and the ultimate of righteousness. The ancient gentleman must repay what he has done. Welcoming cats is because they eat field mice; welcoming tigers is because they eat field pigs. Welcoming and offering sacrifices is a matter of duty. It is said that "the soil returns to its home", water returns to its ravine, insects do not work, and plants and trees return to their marshes. Leather hats and white clothes are used for sacrifice. White clothes are used to send off the dead. Kudzu belts and hazel sticks are used for mourning and killing. The wax sacrifice is the highest level of benevolence and the ultimate of righteousness. Yellow clothes and yellow crowns are used for sacrifice, which means resting the farmers. The wild man wears a yellow crown; the yellow crown is a straw dress. The Great Luo family is the emperor's master of birds and beasts, and the princes pay tribute to them. They come with a straw hat to respect the wild clothes. The Luo family presented a deer and a woman, and ordered the guests to report. To warn the princes: "Those who love fields and women will lose their countries." The emperor planted melons and flowers, but did not store the seeds. The eight waxes are used to mark the four directions. If the four directions are not prosperous in the year, the eight waxes will not flow, so as to be cautious of the people's money. When the prosperity is favorable, the waxes will flow, so as to migrate. After the waxes, the harvest is harvested and the people have rested. Therefore, after the waxes, the gentleman does not start work.

Pampered Liang Yuan: Prince, I want you to go home and farm

Jing Fang discussed with Emperor Yuan of Han, and asked the emperor: "Why did the rulers of You and Li fall? Who did they appoint?" The emperor replied: "They appointed disloyal people." Fang said: "Why did they appoint people knowing they were disloyal?" The emperor replied: "The rulers of the fallen countries all appointed their ministers with virtue. How could they appoint people knowing they were disloyal?" Fang bowed his head and said: "I am afraid that the way we look at the past today is the same as the way people in the future look at the present."
