The theory of five virtues comes from the five elements theory of the ancient dynasty-the black empire is obviously superstitious. However, the more people, the easier it is to be superstitious; The emperor with the highest power is often the most superstitious group. Qin Shihuang first merged with the world. The spread of the Five Virtues began at the end, thinking that Zhou gained fire virtue and Zhou De was invincible in Qin Dynasty. ? ("Historical Records? Zhou is a fire virtue, and Qin Shihuang adopted the water virtue that Zhou De can't match, and the corresponding color of water virtue is black. Are the clothes and flags all black? In 22 1 year BC, the whole society became a black empire.
The black of mountains and rivers is only the color symbol of Qin Shihuang's adoption of water virtue, and it also means a series of corresponding institutional changes, which is the most fundamental. ? This is the beginning of Shuide and the beginning of the New Year. Greetings are all in October, and the number is six. Symbols and crowns are all six inches, rulers are six feet, six feet and six horses. ? More importantly, how does the country govern? Black? ,? In my opinion, at the beginning of Shuide, everything was based on legality and benevolence and righteousness. So hurry, stay for a long time and you won't forgive. ? (ditto) Perhaps, it is this black color that predetermines the black tragedy of Qin Shihuang.
A set of theories is needed to prove the legitimacy of the Qin empire in order to defeat the civilized six eastern countries with culturally backward westerners. At this time, Zou Yan's followers just appeared. The Yellow Emperor has the virtue of earth, and it is seen in Huanglong. Summer is the virtue of wood, and Qinglong stops in the suburbs, with lush vegetation. Yindejinde, silver light overflows the mountains. Zhou de's fire virtue has a symbol of red and black. Today, the Qin dynasty changed to the Zhou dynasty, which is the time of water virtue. Yesterday, when Qin Wengong went hunting, he won the Black Dragon, which is the virtue of water. ? ("Historical Records? There are still five virtues in the book of closed doors, and it is always said that it should be exactly what Qin Shihuang wanted, and he also? Give it to me? He became the first emperor in history to design and govern the system according to the five virtues.
Of course, the five virtues are not historical laws that emperors believe in, but pave the way for them to seize power and provide power? Providence? A tool to prove legitimacy. The target is Lv Buwei, the biggest investor in this country, who used the Five Virtues very early and always said that he spread this political superstition for the Qin Dynasty to annex six countries. He said:? The emperor will prosper, and heaven will see the people first. When the Yellow Emperor, God saw the big cockroach. The yellow emperor said:? A rustic victory! ? The earthiness wins, so its color is still yellow, and its content is earthy. In Yu's time, God didn't kill plants in autumn and winter. Yu said: Wood gas will win! ? Wood gas wins, so its color is Shang Qing, and its matter is wood. At the time of soup, the golden blade was born in water. Tang Yue? Jin Qisheng! ? Gold wins, so the color is still white, and business is gold. When Wen was king, God saw the fire first, and Hong Niao held the Dan book in the Zhou Society. King Wen said; ? Anger will win! ? Internal heat wins, so its color is still red, and its content is fire. The substitute of fire will bring water, and the sky and water will prevail. Water vapor wins, so its color is still black, and its substance is water. ? ("Lu Chunqiu? Yingtong) So it should be Huangdi Tude, Xia Mude, Shang Jinde, Zhou Huode and Qin Shuide.
? Political power comes from the barrel of a gun? Qin Shihuang, who easily killed hundreds of thousands of soldiers, would not believe any nonsense about Germany. However, people in China believe that superstitions are mostly useful. In this way, once they enter the field of superstition, they will be hard to extricate themselves, and once they are serious, they will suffer greatly. Wu De always said that Qin Shihuang should do the same, which originated from the harsh rule of Han Fei's theory. Strong and resolute? 、? Is carving benevolent? Under the strengthening of Heishuide, the pace of the demise of the Qin Dynasty accelerated.
Ancient Five Elements-The color debate of Zou Yan's Five Virtues in Han Dynasty always said that the starting point was Huangdi, which belonged to Tude, followed by Xia, Shang, Zhou and Qin, which were wood, gold and fire respectively. The historical law of providence? , Han life, soil water, Han Yi soil Germany. But Liu Bang thinks that Hei Di is a water virtue, so the system is still old; The official recognition of Tude in Han Dynasty was realized in the era of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, which was determined by the Liu family for a hundred years. In BC 104, the system was officially announced, and China changed from a black world to a yellow world. Take the first month as the beginning of the year; Clothing color is still yellow; Count with five; The official name seal was changed to five characters. ? (Gu Jiegang's Advocacy and Realization of Orderly Restructuring in the Han Dynasty) The restructuring of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was promoted by Sima Qian and others, and China's other color change made great contributions; Perhaps, this brand-new feeling of establishing the eternal system stimulated Sima Qian, and in this year, he began to write Historical Records, which was a swan song throughout the ages. The famous figure of color revolution in history is Wang Mang. The life span of this new emperor is one year shorter than that of the Qin Dynasty. Because the substitution principle of mutual respect and resistance that Wu De has always said is applicable to violent revolution, what do you want from Wang Mang? Peaceful revolution? It's hard to be willing. When Wang Mang was assistant minister of Huangmen? Colleague Liu Xin, a famous scholar, creatively put forward the theory that abdication belongs to the coexistence of five virtues, that is, gold begets water, aquatic wood, wood fires, fire begets soil, and local gold begets gold. He said that Wang Mang, who claimed to be a descendant of Shun, inherited Shun's virtue, and the Han family was a descendant of Yao and belonged to Huo De. The five elements are born of fire, and it is natural for the Han Dynasty to abdicate the new dynasty. In addition to winning the five virtues, there has also been an innovative development in which the five virtues coexist. Although the so-called demise is still backed by guns, on the surface, it seems less aggressive. Gu Jiegang once said that after Wang Mang, all regime changes in China's history were abdication, and conquest only happened when Mongols, Manchu and other aliens. I guess it may be influenced by this theory of five virtues, but the theory of mutual restraint is rarely used. Of course, this war has never been inferior!
Liu Xin became a monk as a teacher because of his meritorious argument, and his name was Gong Jiaxin. However, follwed seems to really believe what Liu Xin said. The greenwood hero attacked the palace, and the maid-in-waiting cried. What to do! ? He also imitated the story of Confucius:? Natural virtue is given, and Han Bing is given! ? ("Han Shu? Wang Mang Chuan)
Liu Xiu of the Eastern Han Dynasty took advantage of this since Wang Mang made Bill Han a fire virtue? Use this to do it? Restore the old business? The reason. ? (Gu Jiegang's "Changing the Virtue of Han Dynasty") In 25 AD, Liu Xiu became the Emperor of Fire Virtue, and the national color was heavy red. In the Han dynasty, there was a period of water virtue, earth virtue and fire virtue, which showed that the historical explanation of this superstition was completely in people's hands.
Five elements of ancient dynasty-the change of national color proposition? Heaven is dead, and yellow sky stands? The Yellow Scarf Uprising at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was originally a violent revolution, but the yellow world was established according to the theory of five virtues, called Tude. At that time, the revolutionary program "Taiping Jing" proposed that the Eastern Han Dynasty was the king of fire morality, and the decline of the Han Dynasty should represent the prosperity of the Han Dynasty. Zhang Jiao, the leader of the uprising, claimed to be? Huang Tian? To show that he will inherit Han Zuo and rule the world. Unfortunately, his yellow world was not established.
However, Cao Pi realized Huang Shizhi's dream, and his peaceful abdication mode corresponds to the theory of coexistence of five virtues. In 220,
He not only changed the system according to the degree, but also named the year "Yellow Huang Chu"? . China in the Three Kingdoms period was also tricolor, because Liu Bei claimed to be orthodox in the Han Dynasty and was the red color of Huode; Sun Quangang also fought for Huang Huode at first, and later he wanted to avenge Korea. According to the theory of five virtues, he adopted the virtue of wood and soil, so the world of Soochow is blue.
Jin played the trick of abdication again, replacing Wei, so what color and virtue should Jin have? In 266 AD, that is, in September of the first year of Sima Yan, ministers thought? Today's Great Jin Dynasty followed the footsteps of Shun and Yu. It should be obedient to the people, and it is appropriate to use the former generation to serve Wei. If there is a story about Yuzuntang, it will be glorious in righteousness. ? ("Jin Shu? Yi Lee)) Sima Yan doesn't seem to care about this and agrees. A man named Sun Sheng said, it still won't work, and gold is a gold merchant, and the clothes are still red, which is very contrary to the test of heaven. ? According to Wude's algorithm, gold should be Jinde and Shangbai. As a result, Sima Yan followed the white man's plan again. As a result, China became a white sea.
The most complicated and changeable colors in China were in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Five chaos China destroyed the Western Jin Dynasty, and Sima's partial Jinling continued Bai Jinde. Liu Yuan, the ancestor of the Northern Han Dynasty who was originally descended from Xiongnu, was also said by Wude? Pollution? In fact, Liu regarded the Han Dynasty as his ancestor, so he righteously adopted Rise of the Legend de of the Eastern Han Dynasty. When his nephew Liu Yao usurped the throne, he adopted Shuide, who was born with Jin Jinde, and the flag was changed to black. There is a 16 regime in the north, the people are displaced and the social color is constantly changing.
The colors in the Southern Dynasties were relatively simple. Song changed gold, and gold gave birth to water, but it was still black. Aquatic wood, Qi Shangqing; The relatives of the Southern Qi Dynasty created Liang and inherited the virtues of Qi. Wood makes a fire, Chen Shangchi.
The Northern Zhou Dynasty was in the Sui Dynasty, and the latter was Mu De and Shang Qing, so the Sui Dynasty was a world of fire and virtue. Fire gives birth to earth, so the Great Tang Dynasty followed the earth, and it was still yellow.
In the Five Dynasties, the back beam destroyed the Tang Dynasty, and the local gold was still red; The later Tang dynasty claimed to inherit the Tang dynasty, so it was still Tude or Huang; Later, when gold was won, it was still white; In the later Han Dynasty, was it water virtue or black? Behind it is wood, Shang Qing.
Song Zen was in Zhou Dynasty, wood was fire, so Song was fire, so it was red; Song Zhao moved to the south, and he was still on fire. Even Emperor Gaozong's title Jian Yan was on fire, which meant rejuvenation. Liao is a water virtue, and Jin destroyed Song after Liao. Inherit? Song de huo de, fire begets earth, so gold is earth virtue or yellow.
In fact, after the Song Dynasty, Wu De kept saying that he basically died in the official position. Therefore, the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty was not interested in the Five Virtues, although people thought it was water virtue. However, in this case, the gold that destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty was the soil of the same generation, while the Yuan that destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty was the water of the same gram. Therefore, there was no unified national color in the Yuan Dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang joined the Red Scarf Army because of the ratification of Huode in the Song Dynasty. Red became the most distinctive symbol of the anti-Yuan armed forces, and the Ming Dynasty also worshipped Huode, which is still red today. However, according to the principle of mutual development or mutual containment, the Ming Dynasty should not be a fire virtue. But? In the Ming Dynasty, the determination of good or ill luck was no longer a top priority related to the orthodoxy of the dynasty, nor was it a solemn state act. Whether it is fire virtue or earth virtue, they are just some informal expressions popular between the ruling and opposition parties. ? (Note 1)
Five virtues have always been said, so it is regarded as folk culture in official theory. Therefore, although there is a so-called water extinction, the water virtue has not been recognized by the Manchu emperor.
Yuan Shikai mentioned by General Manager Wu De, who should he be? Hong xian? The emperor seemed to recognize the virtue of fire in the Ming Dynasty, and it was still red, so that he painted the Forbidden City red. Yuan Shikai's farce ended in a few days, and the history that Wu De always said was finally over, and the official national color was gone.
This theory of five elements is very interesting. Zou Yan's theory of five virtues, from the beginning. Does Guoyu have it? Everything can be made by mixing earth with gold, wood, water and fire? , in the history books? Five elements: water, fire, wood, gold and earth. ? Record. And soon combined with Chinese medicine, it is said that Bian Que's "Difficult Classics" (formerly known as Huangdi Eighty-one Difficult Classics) has begun to apply this theory in medicine.
Let's start with summer. Summer? Five elements belong to fire. There are four seasons in a year, spring, summer, autumn and winter. Belong to all directions. Spring belongs to the east and wood. Summer belongs to the south and belongs to fire. Autumn belongs to the west and is golden. Winter belongs to the north, and it is water. Therefore, the Xia Dynasty was a fire virtue. Moreover, Yu Xia's contribution to water control is to drain the water, which belongs to Mulder. The predecessors failed to block water control according to law, but replaced water with soil. Among the five elements, water can produce wood, and wood can drain water. So the way to dredge is to rule by virtue. A dynasty established by a monarch who belongs to wood, of course, belongs to fire. Because wood can make a fire.
The five elements of Shang Dynasty belonged to water. The founding king of Shang Dynasty? Into soup? . Soup, water too. ? Become? That is the meaning of generations and achievements. This is an image of Jinshui. Soup is naturally golden. Soup is gold, and the established dynasty is of course water. Besides,? Soup? Is it also a polyphonic word? Business? Pronunciation. ? Business? It belongs to water. Among the five elements, water can fire. Therefore, business can replace summer.
Zhou dynasty belongs to the soil. Within a few weeks, there was a hidden. Earth? Words. Obviously. In the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, * * * belonged to Tude. Ji Changli of Zhou Dynasty founded the country. Chang? These two days, it is undoubtedly a fire. Therefore, this is a fire that can produce soil, and the inflammation is extremely prosperous. It has been established for more than 800 years. Because soil can be water, and weeks can destroy business. After moving away from Zhou Dong, the national strength gradually declined. Is it because the oriental wood, earth, broke the week? Feng shui? Caused by ...
Ying Zheng's Qin Dynasty destroyed the Zhou Dynasty. It's Muketu's response. ? Qin? Is there one under the word? Wo? Just like wood. Winner, what's next? Woman? . The ancients regarded men as yang and women as yin. The south is yang and the north is yin. The north is water, so the surname won belongs to water, which can establish Qin and destroy Zhou.
Liu Bang established the Western Han Dynasty, and the five elements belonged to gold. ? Han? It seems to belong to water, and the Western Han Dynasty should also belong to water, but it is not. ? Liu? Word, numerous write one? Kim. Words, naturally belong to gold. And then what? Bang? This word means country. Liu Bangzhe, right? Is it the land of gold? Meaning. Because of Liu Bang's special circumstances, the Western Han Dynasty can only belong to Jin. Gold specializes in wood, so Liu Bangping destroyed Chu (wood) and unified the Central Plains.
After Mang Xin usurped the Han Dynasty, the Western Han Dynasty perished. The Western Han Dynasty belonged to gold and was most afraid of fire. ? New? Who? Jiao Ye. This is a lighted thing, so the new dynasty belongs to fire. Wang Mang belt? Grass? , is wood. Wood can make a fire and destroy the Western Han Dynasty, which belongs to gold.
The Eastern Han Dynasty belonged to water and destroyed Xin Mang. ? Han? This is water, and the Western Han Dynasty naturally belongs to water. After Cao Wei usurped the Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms began.
Among the three kingdoms, Shu Han belongs to gold. Because Liu Bei of Shu Han claimed to be Wang Jing of Zhongshan, the great-grandson of Emperor Jing of the Western Han Dynasty naturally inherited the Western Han Dynasty. The Western Han Dynasty belonged to gold, and so did Shu Han.
Sun Wu belongs to wood. Because Sun Quan has a name? Wood? Word, so Sun Wu belongs to wood.
Cao Wei belongs to water. Because? Wei? Literally? Ghosts? , ghost,? Hey? Yes Nature is water virtue.
Because it ruined Cao's reputation, ruined Cao's emperor Wei Wu, and ruined Cao Wei's affairs? Feng shui? Therefore, Cao Wei must be short-lived.
Cao Cao has a grandson, which belongs to fire, and Cao Cao has wood, which belongs to wood. This is an image of a fire made of wood. To see Cao? Water? So Cao Wei was finally usurped by Sima Jin.
Kim, one day, for fire. Sima family is also a fire virtue. A rider? Afternoon? Yes ? Afternoon? It is the most prosperous place in Holder.
Cao Wei died in Jin due to Cao Caomu's venting of aquatic fire.
After the Western Jin Dynasty, it was destroyed by Liu Yuan. This is incompatible. From the north. After Liu Song usurped the Jin Dynasty, the Eastern Jin Dynasty perished. It belongs to wood, so it can't destroy gold. However, Liu Jian established the Han Dynasty for more than 500 years. Liu Yu, surnamed Liu, used the water of Han Dynasty to extinguish the fire of Jin, and later lived in the afterlife. Song? Wood. This is the water used to put out fires and make wood. After the Southern Dynasties, all? Xiao? Qi,? Xiao? Liang? Chen? Wait, it all belongs to wood.
Let's talk about the Northern Dynasties. Northern Wei belongs to water, because? Woman? ,? Ghosts? Therefore. Divided into Northern Zhou Dynasty and Northern Qi Dynasty. Zhou is dirt, but he is standing by the water. All belong to wood, and nothing belongs to water. With what? Qi? For the sake of the country's dynasty, we can't cross Shanxi. This is why wood can't win gold. People in the Northern Qi Dynasty, such as Gao Yang, Gao Yan, Gao Zhan, etc., all pursued the virtue of water, and the country was naturally wood. Because wood can cure the soil, it was defeated by Qi in the early years of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
After sui and Li. Sui word? Left? . Take the left as the west and the right as the east. Zuo Naixi, xi Naijin. So Yang Sui belongs to gold. Sui and Jin Dynasties unified the Central Plains with Lianke Banner and Chen Ermu. (The Sui Dynasty sprouted in the late Northern Zhou Dynasty, which is the same as Sima Huode's destruction of Shu Han. ) Gold comes from the soil, so Sui usurped the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Because? Yang? This is a piece of wood. And then what? Strong? It is gold. The founding emperor kept his name "Jin Mu pilgrim" and his name was cut, so Sui could not last long.
Tang is a fire virtue, so it is changed to Sui. There was a Tang state in the Western Zhou Dynasty. Later it was changed to gold. It is one of the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period. Therefore, Tang is gold and gold is Tang. Metal fire, Tang is also a fire. Li surnamed wood, the country is a fire. It has a history of more than 200 years.
After Zhu Wen usurped it. Zhu Naihuo, temperature is water. The image of extinguishing fire with water, so Zhu Wen destroyed Tang Liliang. When the beam was destroyed in the later Tang Dynasty, it was burning its wood. Zhu Wen has a bad reputation. This country can't last. Both the later Jin Dynasty and the later Tang Dynasty are doomed. Gold and harmony are one, and gold is a new moon. So after the Jin Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. The later Han Dynasty was water, which put out the fire of the Jin Dynasty and replaced it. The later Zhou Dynasty destroyed the later Han Dynasty with soil and water.
The northern song dynasty is a tree and a soil. Take a week off. After being destroyed by gold. Jin Guo naturally belongs to gold. Liao also belongs to gold. Liao, Khitan also. Khitan, wrought iron also. Belongs to Kim. Traditional Liao hides the sky, hides the fire, and breaks the gold. Feng shui? . Again, the method of treasure machine hides wood to help fire, so Liao can't destroy Song.
Post-Mongolian Dayuan, taken from classical? Heaven and earth dry yuan? . Doing is gold, far better than the ruler. The Mongolian people are still white, and the golden spirit has reached its peak. So destroy the gold and break the song dynasty, unify the whole country. Xixia, which only has fire, is difficult to enemy. Fire can kill gold, so Genghis Khan died at the hands of Xixia.
Daming is the brilliance of the sun and the moon. Huang Zhu is a fire, and Dayuan is destroyed. When gold is on fire, it can't be broken. Nurhachi's reputation is extremely bad, red is fire virtue, and bad is big gold. Vitality is impaired. Is Ming Yuan Chonghuan's opponent? Nurhachi was killed by the Ming army's artillery fire and died in the triple sea of fire.
After the establishment of Shuide in the Qing Dynasty, Tang Ke went to Daming and settled in the Central Plains.
In the Republic of China, morality was the first priority. The name of the Republic of China has no five elements. So it all depends on the name of the founding head of state. Zhongshan people, the central soil also. Successors are righteous and earthy. Therefore, the Republic of China belongs to the soil.
In addition to the chaotic five dynasties, from the Sui Dynasty, the five elements of dynasty names were all inherited from the previous dynasty, such as Tang Tuke Sui Shui. This is especially true after the Song Dynasty, when the mother soil of the Song Dynasty (or the soil of the mother of the Song Dynasty, or the soil of the mother of the back beam), the mother, an open flame, clear water, an open flame, and even? Republic of China? Is it accidental or inevitable, or intentionally or unintentionally?
The name of the dynasty, the five elements, was born in or influenced by the previous generation, and its history is often short. For example, the Sui Dynasty was influenced by the soil of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, with a history of only 37 years. The aquatic Qin wood in Han Dynasty has a history of only fourteen years. According to the theory of five elements, suffering from loss is discouraged, and it will not last long without encouragement.
The name of the next dynasty is five elements, which is similar to that of the previous dynasty. This dynasty is often prosperous or enduring. Such as the Qin Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty unified China; Chaoke Tang Sui Dynasty and Tang Dynasty were the most prosperous periods in China's history. Even corruption in the late Qing Dynasty lasted for nearly 300 years; When the Republic of China ruled the Qing Dynasty, China people replaced it with Mi * * * and the country, and China moved towards modernization.
In fact, the five elements of dynasty replacement refer not only to the name of the country, but also to the name of the founder.
