Not only that, but also great progress and development have been made in religion, poetry, historical revision, books and characters, music and dance, artistic sculpture and so on. These are also important contents in the prosperous times of Kaiyuan.
During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, schools in the Tang Dynasty were the most prosperous. In the seventh year of the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, a decree was issued to select scholars who had studied in prefectures and counties as gentlemen, and those who wanted to study in four schools could also study in Gong Ju. This law created a tribute and imprisonment system for later generations. At the same time, it also stipulates the system of students filling vacancies. In particular, the court stipulates that people are allowed to run private schools, and those who want to go to state and county schools are also allowed.
In the sixth year of Kaiyuan, an academy was established, with famous literary figures Xu Jian, He, and He as bachelors, so that these people could give lectures while studying, which provided experience for later generations to set up an academy. In the 13th year of Kaiyuan, Li Zheng College was changed to Jixian College, with a bachelor's degree above Grade 5 and a straight bachelor's degree below Grade 6. The bachelor's degree and straight bachelor's degree were well paid.
In the twenty-sixth year of the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, he ordered all counties in the world to set up schools in villages, which made school education popular at the grassroots level. This is a major event in the history of education in China. In order to support the development of school education, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty ordered the world to stop paying tribute to the countryside, and stipulated that students who did not study in schools at all levels were not allowed to participate in elections. Although this decree was abolished two years later, it also shows that Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty attached great importance to the establishment of schools at all levels. School education in the Kaiyuan period was the most prosperous period in the Tang Dynasty.
The performance of Kaiyuan rule is also reflected in various aspects such as ideology, culture and social fashion. The establishment of the Hanlin Academy not only played an important role in politics, but also made outstanding contributions to promoting the development of cultural undertakings.
When I ascended the throne, I began to set up the imperial academy, forbidding people who went to court and extended their articles to monks, Taoists, books, paintings, pianos, chess and numbers, all of which were in place, called waiting for letters.
Imperial academy has concentrated a large number of literati and warlocks. They used their literary talent, poetry, art and skills to move in the court, enriching the cultural life of the Tang Dynasty and adding colorful artistic colors to the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
In terms of social customs, in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, due to close contacts with northern minorities, Hu Hua had a strong national color. In this regard, Xuanzong took some measures to ban Hu Hua, but generally speaking, Xuanzong's ban on Hu Hua had little effect. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Huhua of the Han nationality in the Central Plains and the Sinicization of the border ethnic minorities have always been the mainstream in folk life. Even Xuanzong himself quickly gave up banning Hu Hua and began to advocate Hu Hua, especially in the field of literature and art.
Among the measures taken by Xuanzong to ban Hu Hua, the most representative one is to ban throwing cold-hearted dramas. During the reign of Zhongzong, throwing cold water and Hu Opera became a common practice in Chang 'an. The so-called Hu Opera, originated from Persia, is somewhat similar to the Water-splashing Festival of some ethnic minorities in China, only in the winter months. In October of the first year of Kaiyuan, Zhang Yue said, "Hu threw cold water and didn't know the allusions. He jumped naked and didn't care what he thought." It is shameful to throw water on the mud. Shu Lu Li, who scorns those who are quiet and secluded, may not mean to be soft and far away. He thinks this is not in line with the traditional etiquette in China. He suggested that Xuanzong accept this suggestion, and wrote in December: the twelfth lunar month, begging for cold, being good at the outside, gradually immersed in the customs, has been followed for a long time. From now on, if you don't ask barbarians, you must ban them.
Therefore, throwing cold Hu opera is forbidden. From the social and cultural point of view, throwing cold Hu opera is only a folk side issue, and the place where it was banned is mainly because the gap between this folk custom and the traditional culture of the Central Plains is too large. However, Hu Hua did not stop in all aspects of social life in the Central Plains, even in Chang 'an and Luoyang, because he banned a cold Hu Opera. In addition, in addition to banning Hu opera, I have seen an example of Xuanzong's opposition to Hu opera that is not in line with historical facts in historical records. It can be said that in the Kaiyuan period, the social customs and culture of ethnic integration always dominated. Judging from the unearthed Tang Dynasty cultural relics, murals and other materials, it cannot be said that opposing Hu Hua plays an important role in Xuanzong's various measures to govern the country.
Administrative orders cannot prohibit ethnic integration in social customs. During the period from Kaiyuan to Tianbao, the social customs and cultural life of the Tang Dynasty were deeply influenced by ethnic minorities because of the close contact between the Han nationality in the Central Plains and the ethnic minorities in the border areas.
At the beginning of Tianbao, nobles and scholars were good at serving Hu Mao.
In Fa Qu, Yuan Zhen also described Hu Hua in Kaiyuan and Tianbao periods: Hu Yin, Hu Qi and huzhuang fought for fifty years; Women learn Hu makeup, and prostitutes enter Hu Yin to serve Hu Le. This common phenomenon in Hu Hua is related to the change of Xuanzong's attitude towards Hu Hua religion from prohibition to promotion.
During the Kaiyuan period, Xuanzong's ruling measures were inconsistent. Especially in court life and its influence on social customs, Xuanzong experienced a transition from frugality to luxury, and social customs also experienced a transition from thrift to luxury. This change had a great influence on the rule of Kaiyuan. In April of the seventeenth year of Kaiyuan, the weather in Guanzhong suddenly changed, and Lantian Mountain was destroyed by gale and thunderstorm for more than 100 steps. The warlock Zhan explained that it is natural for people to destroy politics by virtue.
The warlock Zhan's statement is an inevitable conclusion that natural phenomena and political actions are ridiculed by natural disasters from the viewpoint of the connection between man and nature.
The view that morality destroyed politics and changed politics reflected the change of Xuanzong's ruling behavior at that time. This change has a great influence on social fashion.
In the sixteenth year of Kaiyuan, Xuanzong moved to Xingqing Palace to listen to politics. With this as a symbol, his fashion began to develop from advocating frugality to pursuing luxury. In the seventeenth year of Kaiyuan; Xuanzong was forty-five years old, and his long and monotonous official duties made him feel tired and bored. As a result, the extravagant and enjoyable side of his character is more and more fully exposed. On the fifth day of August this year, Xuanzong celebrated his birthday and gave a banquet to entertain hundreds of officials and dignitaries. When the wine was full and the songs and dances were getting lighter, Zhang said that Heyuan led hundreds of civil and military officials to the table. Please take Xuanzong's birthday as a beautiful festival. Xuanzong readily cooked together, saying that it is a matter of ginger to have fun with the government and the opposition. Yiqing, please declare to the company.
Qian Qiu Festival was thus established. In the 18th year of Kaiyuan, at the invitation of the Ministry of Rites, the Qian Qiu Festival was combined with the rural country's blessing to report the year. Since then, Qian Qiu Festival has become a major national festival.
Taking August 5th as the Millennium Festival, the first order was issued, which was distributed all over the country and feasted for three days. Therefore, ministers sacrificed mannitol bottles every day and lived for a long time. The maharaja entered the golden mirror ribbon. It is more important for the scholar-officials to reveal the secret with silk knots. The village club made a birthday party, named Sai Bai Di, and reported it to Tian Shen.
Since then, this festival has been solemnly celebrated every year. At the end of Kaiyuan, Xuanzong said in Qian Qiu Festival Official Banquet: Today is a time of peace, the years are getting ripe, there is nothing at home and abroad, and the ruling and opposition parties are at peace. That's not why he shipped Yan Xi? Sit and drink while waiting, and be happy with each other.
In the rescue order of inviting Jing Zhao's elder, he said: Today's festival is full of crops. Since 1998, it is not as good as today. Enough people, I'm really happy. Therefore, at this time, we should have dinner with our elders, be happy with each other, sit and eat, enjoy drinking and give less, and then collect it after the banquet.
Everywhere shows a posture of success, eat, drink and be merry.
