Chapter 2026: A broken mirror is hard to round, the lunar calendar(1/2)

 "The envoy has returned home!"

With a loud announcement, everyone in the Liu Mansion started to move. The servants hurriedly arranged the utensils used by Liu Biao, then reached out and touched the corner of the table to confirm again that there was no dust at all before giving up and going again.

He quickly added fire to the refreshing drink that was warm on the small red clay stove, and when he heard a loud gurgling sound, he quickly took it down and placed it in the warmer to wait.

Several maids serving in the inner courtyard came to greet Liu Biao at the entrance of the courtyard. When they saw Liu Biao, they stepped forward to help him gently, then turned into the screen, changed out of their red and black crown clothes, and changed into ordinary casual clothes.

"Where is Cong'er?"

Liu Biao asked.

If you look at him from a distance, Liu Biao's face is ruddy and his bearing is extraordinary. But if you look closer, you can see that the thick powder on Liu Biao's face has cracked a lot as he speaks and moves, and some dust falls with his words.

.

Today was the day of the sunrise, and as usual, he had to meet with officials from all over Jingzhou. In order not to show his sick look on his face, Liu Biao applied more powder than usual.

Asian magic has been spread since ancient times.

At this time, Liu Cong was in the inner study, and he couldn't calm down. On normal days, he would still have the bearing of a noble man, but now he has no grace at all. He is wandering around in the study with his hands behind his back. Why?

Can't stop either.

It's no wonder that he, at this moment, even a fool knows that something is wrong...

Needless to say, the Liu guards standing outside the study already explained some problems.

The sound of noise came from the outer courtyard, and not long after, someone came to the study, cupped his hands and said, "Sir, I have sent you to summon me."

Liu Cong hurriedly ran out. After seeing Liu Biao, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Father..."

Liu Cong bowed his head to greet him.

"Come in!"

Liu Biao sat calmly. Even though Liu Biao was sitting calmly now, he was full of various thoughts in his heart.

"Father..."

Liu Cong came to his side and whispered again.

"Sit..." Liu Biao glanced at Liu Cong.

"Father..." Liu Cong spoke again.

Liu Biao frowned, and the powder on his face fell a little more, "I said, sit down!"

"Oh, oh..." Liu Cong then sat down.

Ever since Cai had his plans, Liu Biao had imprisoned Cai in the backyard. The entire mansion was basically under the control of Liu's guards, and Cai Mao had also lost most of his military power.

As for why Liu Biao didn't completely kill the Cai family and still kept it for the New Year, could it be that Liu Biao was fooling around and was forcibly subdued by Ma Hou?

it's actually really easy.

The Cai family has deep roots in Jingxiang. Liu Biao's wife is the Cai family, Liu Cong's wife is also the Cai family, and how many other families have wives who are also the Cai family? If they had directly killed the Cai family at that time, they would have gotten into a twisted relationship with the Cai family.

Doesn’t the cavalry general have a reason to go south? What if the cavalry really takes Liu Qi south? And whether it is Pang Degong or Huang Chengyan, if one of them really stands up, believe it or not, Liu Biao may not even be able to control Xiangyang!

Now that Cai Mao was slowly squeezed out of the army, and the power of the army fell into the hands of Gan Ning, Liu Biao felt that his waist was no longer cold, and he had the courage to attack Cai.

What? Cao Cao killed Cai Mao?

Ha, that's the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

The real history is that "after Liu Cong's defeat, Cao Cao visited Mao's house, entered Cai Mao's private room, and called to see his wife and children." Then Cai Mao was appointed to two thousand shi, and was granted the title of Marquis of Yangting in Han Dynasty until his death. He was nothing like Zhou Yu.

thing.

So why is Liu Biao starting to plan for the Cai family again now? After all, it is difficult to reunite a broken mirror. Cracks have already occurred. Is it possible to return to its original appearance?

Liu Biao knew this, and so did Cai Mao.

Also, have times changed...

Just like those big tigers in later generations, when they were entrenched in the place and roared on the hills, no one heard it, no one knew it, no one reported it? Haha, but why not deal with it directly and wait until the heat is high before taking the pot?

Therefore, Liu Biao believed that now, the time has come.

After the Cai family was suppressed, Huang Zhong opened up the Wuguan Road and began to transfer some things to the north one after another. Gold, silver, jewelry, valuable utensils, and even family members...

Zhuge Liang went to Chang'an and then stayed in Chang'an. It is said that the Ma family and the Chen family were preparing to go to Chang'an.

Then, the three auxiliaries in Guanzhong, north of the river, Jizhou and Qingzhou are prone to natural disasters!

Fei Qian asked his soldiers to assist in farming and rescue Zhuang He...

Cao Cao was busy winning over the gentry and common people of Jizhou in Yecheng...

Everyone is busy, which is good. After finishing the Cai family, they will catch up with the autumn harvest, and then they will be busy again. After the end of autumn, Liu Biao will be able to stabilize Jingxiang, and then pass the position to Liu Cong first, taking advantage of the opportunity.

Help Liu Cong as much as possible while he can still breathe, so that Liu Cong can accumulate as much capital as possible...

As for the future, it all depends on Liu Cong. So Liu Fang now takes Liu Cong with him, which can be regarded as teaching by words and deeds.

So, could there be a better time than now?

Coupled with Zhang Ji's escape, it was the last straw. If Zhang Ji and Zhang Zhongjing were still there, Liu Biao would still have some hope, but now with only the prescriptions left by Zhang Ji, he could not make it in time.

How long can Liu Biao's broken body last through acupuncture conditioning and increasing or decreasing the dosage?

Jingxiang is the Jingxiang of the Liu family, not the Cai family!

Before you can move, you must sweep away all the thorns for Liu Cong!

Liu Biao deliberately exposed his body today, just to use his body as bait in an attempt to catch Cai Hao. He didn't believe that Cai Hao hadn't read the "suicide note", he was writing it to Cai Hao!

But the question is, why didn't Cai Mao take action today?

"Emergency military report!"

Suddenly a loud shout broke the silence.

"There is a thief in Yunmengze. He calls himself General Tiger Roar, calls a hundred thousand people, and marches towards Jiangling!"

……(⊙_⊙;)……

Chang'an.

Lishan Mountain is a place for observing astronomy.

A coo-coo flew past the sky with a cry. Fei Qian looked up and vaguely saw something on the pigeon's legs, and his heart skipped a beat.

Huang Xu also saw it and said: "Master, how about..."

Fei Qian waved his hand, "Since we've already reached the bottom of the mountain, there's no rush. We'll talk about it when we get back."

Under Lishan Mountain, Kan Ze was already waiting.

When Fei Qian came here, there was naturally something going on.

What does it mean to be crazy and obsessed? Fei Qian understood it when he met Xu Yue.

Xu Yue's hair was disheveled and his whole body was in a state of wretchedness. He didn't look like a gentleman at all. His robes were scattered, and he was staring at Tugui's dial with his butt sticking out. He had no idea that Fei Qian had already walked beside him.

Huang Xu frowned and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Fei Qian.

Fei Qian looked at Xu Yue's engrossed state and forgot everything, so he simply stood back and signaled not to disturb Xu Yue and others.

Only if a nation has people looking at their feet and people looking up at the stars can this nation have hope.

For early Chinese people, looking up at the starry sky was basically to conduct a relatively basic exploration of the cycle changes of the sun, moon, and stars.

Basic, but does not mean original.

The cultural inheritance of nomadic people is relatively lacking, and it is naturally difficult to establish a connection between the sun, moon, stars and livestock. People who mainly focus on farming pay special attention to the climate and weather, so how to determine the season based on time, and related

A series of agricultural activity guides, such as temperature, water flow, sun and moon rise and fall, etc., have become the lifeblood of agricultural farming.

In this process, because the moon is closer to the earth, the change cycle is very obvious, so almost all farming peoples of ancient cultures, such as ancient Egypt, Babylon, ancient India, ancient Greece, etc., all adopted this method of using the moon phase.

A calendar formulated based on changes in the laws of China, that is, the lunar calendar.

Fei Qian had always thought that ancient China had a lunar calendar, that is, a calendar based on the moon, but in fact, this is not the case...

As the only ancient civilization that has continued for generations to come, the Han calendar has withstood the test of time under the rotation of the sun and moon for thousands of years. The Han calendar used by later generations is said to have been created in the Xia Dynasty, so it was called the Xia calendar until modern times.

It was then renamed the lunar calendar. Because the moon and the sun are not synchronized, and the ancient people's measurement methods were not very accurate, there often were some large deviations. In order to make up for this problem, the concept of the solar calendar was incorporated

, that is, a calendar based on the temperature changes of the sun. So to be precise, the lunar calendar of later generations is actually a lunar calendar based on the changes of the moon phases and mixed with some contents of the solar calendar in order to improve the accuracy of farming and the suitable farming times.

calendar.

The Han Dynasty was the beginning of these calendars, including the chronology of the heavenly stems and earthly branches that lasted for thousands of years and was still used in later generations. It also started from this era...

"That's not right..." Xu Yue frowned, his eyes fixed on Tu Gui, and then he grabbed the records on the wooden tablet beside him to calculate, "That's wrong... How could it be wrong...

its not right……"

Fei Qian sighed slightly.

"Senior Brother Xu..." Fei Qian called softly.
To be continued...
