Extended data
In ancient China, the method of "dripping water from a copper pot" was used to measure time, and one day and night were divided into twelve hours, namely, Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Noon, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and Hai, which correspond to the twenty-four hours today. From eleven to midnight, it's ugly from one to three, Yin Shi from three to five, and so on.
One hour in ancient times is equivalent to two hours today. So when clocks and watches were first introduced into China, some people called an hour "Da Shi" and an hour in the new time "Shi". Later, with the popularity of clocks and watches, the word "big hour" disappeared, but "hour" has been used to this day.
Sculpture-Ancient time was measured by clepsydra.
The leaky pot is divided into two parts: the sowing pot and the receiving pot. The seeding kettle is divided into two or four layers, both of which have dripping holes, and finally flow into the receiving kettle. The kettle has an upright arrow engraved with 100 minutes. The arrow gradually rises with the storage of water, showing the number of minutes to show the time. And a 24-hour day and night is 100 minutes, which is equivalent to 1440 minutes now. It can be seen that each moment is equivalent to 14.4 minutes now. So "3: 30 noon" is equivalent to 1 1: 43.2 at noon now.
There is a saying in the old novel called "chop at noon three times", that is, chop at noon three times (fifteen minutes away from noon). At this time, the yang is full and the yin is dissipated immediately. This heinous crime should be "not even allowed to do ghosts" to show severe punishment. Yin and Yang experts say that Yang is the most abundant, which is different from modern astronomy. Not at noon, but at three o'clock.
In ancient times, beheading was carried out in different periods, that is, beheading was important. Generally, beheading is to operate at noon and let it have a ghost to do; Repeater or heinous criminals must choose the operation at 3: 30 noon, and don't let it be a ghost. The meridian gate of the imperial city is also the most prosperous, regardless of time, so the emperor ordered the people who started the meridian gate to behead, and no ghosts did it.
