In A.D. 1368, Zhu Yuanzhang, Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty, completed the great cause of multi-ethnic reunification during the recovery period of China War. According to the truth, even if he doesn't worship Mount Tai, he is fully qualified to give the title of Mount Tai God. However, Zhu Yuanzhang believes that the prosperity of the country and the unity of the nation have nothing to do with the worship of Zen and the title of Taishan God. There are no two kings in the country, and he ordered all the titles of Mount Tai gods to be removed, in 6544 AD. Although Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty no longer went to Mount Tai to worship Zen, he sent envoys to Mount Tai for sacrifice, regardless of natural or man-made disasters, from the emperor's succession to begging for mercy, from floods and droughts to the regulation of the Yellow River, because Mount Tai has long been a deep-rooted national belief. Whether it is to add a title or to remove a title, Mount Tai is still Mount Tai, and it is still a symbol of the country, the country and the people. It turned out that the emperor went to the top of Mount Tai to worship heaven, and the Yongle emperor of the Ming Dynasty simply moved Mount Tai to Beijing to worship heaven.
The Temple of Heaven was built during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty when it moved its capital to Beijing. It was built in the same year as the Forbidden City in Beijing and has a history of 570 years. In these 570 years, emperors sacrificed to heaven here in both the Ming and Qing dynasties. The most important thing is to show that human beings should respect nature and worship heaven, and hope to have a favorable environment, that is, natural conditions conducive to production and life. The earliest worship of heaven began in Mount Tai, and the worship of heaven in China society ended in the Temple of Heaven, which wrote a history of emperor China. It's a rotating upward trend. No matter how high the sky is, I will try my best to build it higher. It is an artistic conception, which makes people imagine that it will be connected with the sky. This is a rotating upward trend, just like climbing Mount Tai and getting closer to the sky step by step. Mount Tai has the worse gate, and so does the Temple of Heaven.
During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, although the place of worship to heaven moved to the foot of the Emperor of Kyoto, the Emperor and the people climbed over the mountains, but this kind of move increased. Mount Tai has gradually become a sacred mountain to pray for the peace of the country and people. From 1684 to 10, after 24 years of mass production, Emperor Kangxi, who unified and stabilized the Qing Dynasty, went to Mount Tai to offer sacrifices. In ancient times, the emperor who offered sacrifices to Mount Tai first visited Yaocan Pavilion briefly, and then entered Dai Temple to hold a grand ceremony. The ritual level of offering sacrifices to Mount Tai is very strict. The emperor's gift, the old courtiers can only wait in the old pool. After Kangxi climbed Mount Tai, he followed the example of ancient Shun Di and lit the fire of Chai Wang, a symbol of unity, at the top of Mount Tai.
After Kangxi climbed Mount Tai, he said in one of his papers that I studied the terrain and sent people to investigate from the sea, and found that Mount Tai and Changbai Mountain are in the same strain. There is no need to delve into the scientific truth of this view, but the good intentions of the Qing emperor who entered the Central Plains from Baishan Blackwater are self-evident. In A.D. 1703, Emperor Kangxi inspected the Yellow River Project. When he climbed Mount Tai again, he saw that there was a famine in Tai 'an, personally handled the disaster relief, and told officials at all levels not to skimp on it. Kangxi reigned for 6 1 year, and always advocated current politics, but he did not give up his reputation. Perhaps this is the secret of maintaining stability during his administration.
This is a cliff stone carving in Qing Dynasty, which is divided into two parts. The word Yunfeng above is said to have been written by Kangxi, and the word below is said to have been written by Qianlong. Kangxi came. He was the second emperor of the Qing Dynasty, the first emperor Shunzhi and the second emperor Kangxi. Kangxi's son is Yongzheng, Yongzheng's son is Qianlong, Qianlong is the fourth emperor of the Qing Dynasty, so Kangxi is called the grandchild. Our present territory was basically laid by the Qing Dynasty.
Among the emperors of past dynasties, Qianlong's attitude towards Mount Tai can be said to be the most natural and unrestrained. By offering sacrifices to Mount Tai, he skillfully integrated the culture and art of different nationalities, thus promoting national integration.
Emperors in the Qing Dynasty generally offered sacrifices to Mount Tai on a regular basis, that is, to Mount Tai, which were collectively called ritual vessels. As far as Yugui is concerned, there are six patterns on it, and "Shangshu Shundian" cited six examples, looking at the mountains and rivers. Six cases are typical primitive worship, which originated from primitive worship. There are three cases in heaven and three cases in earth. Three cases in heaven are the sun, the moon and the stars, and three cases in the earth.
