Be about to enter summer on, mention " beginning of the hottest part of the summer " two words, everybody knows midsummer wanted to come, all sorts of cold drink and food of pass the summer in a leisurely way are crowded freezer. Can does everybody know " beginning of the hottest part of the summer " the antecedents of this one concept?
Answer on paragraphic fierce of our respecting the Qin Dynasty is fair die young, because son a surname is white too small, gave little brother Qin De the seat of monarch fair, ke Qinde is fair also be individual young person, v/arc be on the throne died of illness two years merely. Although time of v/arc be on the throne is very short, qin De is fair did 3 very influential major issues however, these 3 important matters, it is first time, leave behind a good reputation annals. Found by him among them this " beginning of the hottest part of the summer " one dc conveys the idea to now. We see Qin De together fair how to accomplish.
The first important matter, found " beginning of the hottest part of the summer " this one seasonal concept. The ancients did not have timing facility in that way now, sunrise and case, sunset and rest, the change that complete support observes astronomy is geographical will decide seasonal replace. And the change to climate, also consider as what God gives to bestow. Accordingly, in carry out ceaselessly in fumbling, be born gave a kind of special occupation -- augur. Before this, qin Ren has the habit of deities of sacred heaven and earth early, qin De is fair not exceptional also, include city of harmony of move the capital to another place, he should ask official historian to undertake augur beforehand, divinatory symbols resembles conform to, ability is compliant and providential, the official historian that awaits in those days so is special the profession that be very popular.
Produce this " beginning of the hottest part of the summer " what is notional reason, account is done not have on history, but for sacred the arrival of this festival, qin De is fair was to make great efforts however. It is to found above all " beginning of the hottest part of the summer " concept, remind people to be about to enter summer after beginning of the hottest part of the summer namely, the mosquito bites all sorts of diseases to be able to rise more, issued a warning to people from healthy angle. It is beginning of the hottest part of the summer next when, be about to hang the limb of the dog on on top of the city wall, meaning for exorcise evil spirits, solid was summer, the dog can extend long-tongued head, because the dog arrived summer, should rely on adjustable tongue to help send out the overmuch quantity of heat on the body, this also is the omen that reminds people summer arrived.
From mosquito bite and dog loll head two natural phenomena look, qin De is fair found " beginning of the hottest part of the summer " concept, also should be the practice summary that accumulates through observation.
The 2nd important matter, system of first be buried alive with the dead. On history a lot of people use age the Warring States first times the thing of living person be buried alive with the dead is written down go up in official head of fierce of the Qin Dynasty, actually this is incorrect. " history write down " in " Qin Benji 5 " when mentioning this paragraph of history, also saying is Qin Wu of fair designed arrangement. Concluding truely should be, qin De is fair the favour that to thank elder brother the Qin Dynasty Wu Gongli lets, held royal state funeral to him, it is namely in this activity, qin Guocai has the precedent of living person be buried alive with the dead, altogether has 66 people be buried with the dead.
Why does later ages want to wear this hat on official head of fierce of the Qin Dynasty, because this thing rises because of him. Accordingly, on the up-and-up of fair lifetime of fierce of the Qin Dynasty, also do not care about this one many cap.
The 3rd important matter, city of harmony of move the capital to another place. Reverse Qin Guo history, be as long as more than 320 years about Yong Cheng's Wang Dou, have state of 19 the Qin Dynasty monarch is here ascend the throng, can think at the outset Qin De is fair those who choose Yong Cheng is brilliant. So, at the outset how is he to find so of ground of a geomantic treasure?
We understand on history, found a state to unite 6 nations to Qin Shi emperor from Xi Qin, qin Guo's capital is ceaselessly from on the west eastwards migratory, from Qin Fei child canine Qiu Qi calculates found a capital on the west, all previous classics 8 Wang Dou, only alone Yong Cheng's position is irreplaceable. What important place of harmony city pharynx and larynx explains at the back of this one word is important, its north is controallable Rong Di inbreaks, with Central Plains the photograph that lie between a river looks east. As a result of Yong Cheng domain belongs to week of royal family formerly at the outset all, qin Guocong armies be recaptured in the hand on the west, when age, yong Cheng all around still 4 rivers surround, formed a natural protective screen, see the motive of general optional location of heart of the Qin Dynasty.
Arrived period of the Warring States, qinguo and Central Plains are vassal attrition grow in quantity, strategic position of Yong Cheng is more and more significant, all previous monarch builds enclosing wall ceaselessly, make Yong Cheng more firm thereby, construction is more and more beautiful also. Although arrived,later ages continues Wang Dou east change comes after oak this world and Xian Yang, yong Cheng still gets as old city of each monarch revere, also want even ascend the throng of Qin Shi emperor to be held to Yong Cheng, the position in seeing Yong Cheng look in heart of compatriots of the Qin Dynasty. Build belong to the same organization about Yong Cheng, at the back I speak of Qin Dao even technically be related of fair special consolidate.
From public be in office of heart of the Qin Dynasty achievement in one's post of two years looks, quite considerable still, the head of a family that is he and him only is same, life is not long, became merely two years of monarch, the body broke down. Qin De is fair after dying, a surname of eldest son the Qin Dynasty that kingship passed him is fair, 3 people of fair brother of announce of the Qin Dynasty continue the tradition of inheritance father generation, accede in kingship on, hold to can the principle below the person that before last needs, final 3 child Ying Ren good succession, it is the Mu Gong that it is the Qin Dynasty, start time of way that gave to seek hegemony for Qin Guozhen eventually.
