Datang: Only by resisting the will can one become stronger

In the next few days, it was not as expected by Li Qiu.

This chess soon became popular in the palace and among these courtiers.

Especially people like Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, who have a strategy and are well versed in the way of war, are particularly fascinated by this chess.

Even Li Shimin is no exception.

For this kind of business opportunity, Li Qiu naturally will not miss it.

Thanks to the joint efforts of those craftsmen and children, dozens of chess sets can be produced every day.

Like the fine products made by craftsmen, they are sold to rich people at high prices.

The price is 30 copper coins (30,000 copper coins) for a pair, and the original logo of Furong Academy is engraved on the chessboard.

The purpose is to get this group of rich people not to buy pirated copies.

After all, there is no anti-counterfeiting technology for chess.

You can only use the face of these upper classes and these people to defend yourself.

And the slightly inferior and flawed ones made by these children were sold to the people of the city at very cheap prices.

A pair of 100 wen, that is, a manual cost.

It also has the logo of Furong Academy, but the workmanship is poor.

It is also very different from those high-end chess materials, and it has a very large degree of differentiation.

In this way, the name of Furong Academy has also begun.

At this time, the New Year's Festival has finally arrived.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, the last day of the year, according to the custom handed down from the pre-Qin Dynasty, a ceremony is held on this day.

(Exorcising the Devil: A ritual to drive away the plague and chase away the ghosts, it is one of the primitive witch dances, which later evolved into a dance form.) The

whole family gathers for a feast and keeps vigil, and the lights are kept on all night.

On the morning of this day, this group of children on vacation were busy with various affairs under the organization of Jia Ding and Luo Kexin.

There are cleaning, and there are preparations for making the ingredients for the hearty Chinese New Year's Eve meal.

There are also peach branches, sticking door gods, hanging spring flags, and calligraphy.

In the Tang Dynasty, people were quite rich in the etiquette and procedures of festivals.

Speaking of this door god, it is definitely not Qin Qiong and Wei Chi Jingde posted by later generations.

Now that the two of them are still alive and well, it should be in the Song Dynasty, and the two of them walked to the door of the people's house.

In the Tang Dynasty, the door gods generally chose two peach wood boards, which were painted with two gods, the left god and the right Yu Lei.

Then hang the peach wood boards on the left and right sides of the gate, which is the door god in the Tang Dynasty.

About this god and Yu Lei, there is such a record in the Book of Mountains and Seas: In the middle of the sea, there is a mountain of Dushuo.

There is a large peach tree on it, and its bending pan is three thousand miles.

Its skills are idle in the northeast called the ghost gate, and ten thousand ghosts are in and out.

There are two gods and men, one is called a god and the other is a Yu Lei, and the Lord reads and leads ten thousand ghosts.

Roughly speaking, these two God-men are the rulers of the evil spirits of the world.

Hanging the two of them on a mahogany board at the door, the demons naturally avoided them and did not dare to enter the door again.

It stands to reason that Luo Kexin has not yet passed the door, and he wants to spend time with the old prince in his own mansion.

This is also the Chinese New Year's Eve of their Luo family, although only their grandfather and grandson are inseparable.

Originally, Li Qiu planned to accompany Luo Kexin and the old prince to celebrate the New Year at night.

Anyway, he is alone, and he doesn't care about these things conceptually, as long as there is a family, it is the year.

When he learned of his decision, Luo Kexin was so moved that he almost didn't shed tears.

I was very happy to go back and talk to the old prince.

However, it was completely unexpected by the old prince, he said, even if Li Qiu came, there would only be three of them in this family.

It's so deserted.

Simply, the two of them went to Li Qiu's hibiscus garden to celebrate the New Year.

There are more than 1,000 children there, festive and lively.

Therefore, Luo Kexin on Chinese New Year's Eve is the happiest year she has ever lived since she understood things.

It's just that she didn't see the look back at the moment when the old prince left Luofu.

How sad and gloomy it is.

Wait until next year, Kexin will marry someone and die, and this Luo family will be gone.

Time also, life also.

Since it is providential, let it be.

In the morning, everyone is busy at home, and in the afternoon, it is mainly the most popular outdoor activity, which is the driving of the people.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were two types of expulsions: official and civil.

Officially, it's called Guofu.

"New Tang Dynasty Book Lile Zhi" records: Guowu is presided over by Taichang Temple, Taichang Qing and Shaoqing are in front of the palace.

The time was the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve, and the location was in front of the Zichen Hall.

In front of the Zichen Palace, Zhang Guan hangs music.

The specific timing should be before the palace dinner event to set off the festive atmosphere.

The scale of the ceremony is relatively large, and there are 500 people who cooperate with the ceremony.

They should be dressed in red pleats and plain shirts, and wear faces", a column of six people, lined up in front of the Zichen Palace.

A nephew is a boy or girl between the ages of 12 and 16 who participate in the ritual of exorcising the maids.

There are four people with square appearances, wearing crowns and masks, gold for four eyes, wearing bear furs, holding Geyang shields, and making a voice of the mouth to divide the expulsion.

The twelve people on the right are all dressed in red hair and white-mouthed painted clothes, each holding a hemp whip (braided hemp for it, several feet long, vibrating, and the sound is very strong)

This aspect refers to the god of chasing the epidemic and driving away ghosts in the ancient mythology of our country.

Whenever there is a national ceremony, many officials will bring their families to participate.

After all, such a large-scale performance is also very interesting.

And the people, because they can't enter the imperial city, can't see such a grand performance, so they can only make a small fuss, and play a trick in the streets, just have fun.

However, this year was a bit of a surprise.

Like the eldest grandson Wuji, Wu Shi Tong, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin, Yu Chi Jingde, Du Ruhui, Feng Li and others, they did not bring their families into the imperial city.

Instead, he went straight out of the city and ran out of this hibiscus garden.

If there are 500 people performing in the imperial city, the scale is grand.

In this Hibiscus Garden, there are more than 1,300 boys and girls, how can this be said?

Moreover, these children in the Hibiscus Garden have been preparing for at least half a month for this rehearsal.

This is also what Li Qiu meant, and regarded this expulsion as a queue to walk in a phalanx to exercise the children's execution and discipline.

Under Li Qiu's guidance, some of the performances also have the meaning of walking in the right step and phalanx.

Uniform, super coordinated and ornamental.

Since this group of children has been training for half a month.

It has long attracted the attention of the people in the city.

So on this day, not to mention the empty alleys in Chang'an City, it is almost the same.

Around the square outside the Hibiscus Garden, there are also people gathered on the inner three floors and the outer three floors.

The eldest grandson Wuji and the samurai Tong and their group were unable to squeeze in.

In the end, I walked through the side gate and went around the hibiscus garden to take a look.
