Jokes about happy life ([-]) - about New Year's Day

Regarding "New Year's Day", which is a modern new term in Xiao Wu's cognition, it actually appeared in China as far back as the time of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors.

After popular science, Wu Xu learned that as early as the reign of Zhuan Xu, one of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, he used the first month of the lunar calendar as Yuan, and the first day of the first lunar month as Dan, so "New Year's Day" refers to the first day of the first month.Later, after changes in the Xia and Shang dynasties, in the Zhou Dynasty, the first day of the first month was officially determined as New Year's Day, also known as Zhengdan.

Tang people are open-minded and romantic by nature, and the whole country is in a period of frequent internal and external cultural exchanges, so when the New Year comes, there are countless entertainment activities.

Since the Han Dynasty, the night of New Year's Eve and the morning of New Year's Day have been celebrated hand in hand, forming the custom of "keeping the year old".At this time, thousands of families gather together, hold banquets, perform singing and dancing entertainment, burn paper money, offer sacrifices to ancestors, and set off firecrackers to drive away ghosts and evil spirits.

In the Tang Dynasty, the customs of the New Year were gradually liberated from the mysterious atmosphere of prayer, superstition, and elimination, and transformed into entertainment and etiquette festivals.

Wu Xu has been in this era for almost 30 years. The previous 20 years have been quite ups and downs. Even though she became the most noble hostess in the empire, her life is not as leisurely as before. Some people wake up earlier than chickens and sleep late Later than a dog, more tired than an old scalper...

Wu Xu and Li Xiaojiu felt a little relieved when Da Lang was able to supervise the country on his own. However, there were some important secret industries, and they still couldn't let them go.

It's not that the old husband and wife don't believe in their son's abilities, they're just worried that he's too tired to take it...

After all, it was New Year's Day again, and His Majesty Li Xiaojiu was very rascally saying that he was sick and did not attend the court celebration, and pushed the work of putting on puppets to Da Lang and Er Lang, while he dragged Wu Xu and sneaked out of the palace to have fun with the people...

Wu Xu was worried for a long time at first, but when she left the palace, she forgot that her son was still suffering in the palace.

Today's Chang'an is no longer the Chang'an of 20 years ago. It is no exaggeration to say that Chang'an is now the center of world culture, economy, and education. People all over the world hope to come to Chang'an to see it. The style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty...

Chang'an has become a sacred place in the hearts of people all over the world!

Wu Xu looked at the high-rise buildings and people of various races all over the street, and suddenly felt like walking in a global village...

"Meiniang, look at this prosperous age, it's all thanks to you..." Li Zhi put his arms around Wu Xu, pointed at the flow of people in Chang'an Commercial Center, and seemed to be pointing Jiangshan.

"Don't dare to be..." Rao, the empress lady who has already trained a thick face, blushed a little when she heard such praise from His Majesty Li Xiaojiu.

"It is Your Majesty who created the prosperous world, and it can only be Your Majesty. At most, I just happen to be at the right time~~~~~" No matter how powerful and fierce a woman is in this era, without the support of her husband, she will not be able to do anything. here.And there are very few men who trust their partner like Li Xiaojiu and can entrust all the military and political power to her...

Wu Xu couldn't but say that she was moved...

Her dream of being king and hegemony has more than half come true. Although she doesn't have a group of beautiful harem, she does have a group of well-behaved and lovely (?) sons and daughters...

Of course, it would be more perfect if the man beside me was not so jealous =. =

Just as Wu Xu thought of this, a gust of wind blew away the veil from her face, and it just landed in Li Yifu's arms behind them...

His Majesty Li Xiaojiu jumped up immediately: "Hurry up and get a curtain hat!!" He must send Li Sanfa to Lingnan when he returns ==+

"You don't need the veil hat..." Wu Xu's hair was covered with black lines. These days, even teenage girls rarely wear veil hats. hat ==

The attendants didn't know what to do. Now the words of the Empress Dowager are much more effective than His Majesty the Emperor. For such a trivial matter, it seems that it is better to listen to the Empress' words...

Seeing that the servants didn't move much, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu became more and more angry: "What are you doing in a daze?!"

Seeing that Li Zhi was going to have a convulsion again, Wu Xu hurriedly asked the maid to take a certain drapery hat and put it on, and then began to smooth Li Zhi: "Okay, okay... Can I still wear it..."

"The fireworks will be set off soon, let's hurry up to the Empire State Building..."

As Wu Xu said, she walked forward with Li Zhi on her arm. More and more people came to watch the fireworks show. They had to hurry up to get a good seat...

His Majesty Li Xiaojiu was comforted by Shun Maoshun, and seeing that Xiao Shunzi had taken back Wu Xu's scarf from Li Xianggong very kindly, he felt even happier, so he squeezed Wu Xu's hand and quickened his pace...

And just as they arrived at the Empire State Building, the first fireworks just went off into the sky...

Under the shade of the colorful fireworks, Li Zhi held Wu Xu's hand tightly, making up his mind silently: When Da Lang crowns him, he will take A Wu out of Daming Palace to find their Taoyuan...
