Historical origin
"Quiet person" is also called "Qi person" in history. In today's China cultural circle, the Japanese still use the name "Kai Zhe". In the Han Dynasty, the sixth emperor, Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, used the word "qi" to avoid taboo and changed it to the word "Jing" with similar meaning. At the same time, the order of Meng Chun's first month's fright and mid-February's spring festival "Rain" was also replaced. Similarly, the order of "Grain Rain" and "Qingming" has been replaced.
So before the early Han Dynasty, the order of solar terms was: beginning of spring-Qizhe-Rain-Equinox-Grain Rain-Qingming; The order of solar terms in Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty was adjusted as follows: beginning of spring-rain-thorn-vernal equinox-Qingming-Grain Rain. After entering the Tang dynasty, you don't have to avoid the word "qi" and use the name "qi". However, due to some unaccustomed reasons, the word "elite" was used again in Great Yan Li, and it has been used ever since.
