We can imagine that the royal court three thousand years ago was brightly lit, and the courtiers got together and sat down openly. Zhou Tianzi ordered people to serve food and wine, and both the monarch and the minister were happy. The sound of stones and bamboos in the temple sounded, and people sang "Yo Yo Luming Literature, the apple of the wild food ..."

At this time, a man smiled and raised his glass, saluted the king and said, "I have a song today that I want to sing to the king!" " "Wang Zhun, everyone applauded. I saw him gulp down the wine in the club, and then sang loudly:

People can't live forever, but they may live to be eighty or ninety years old! Whether you can really become the "father of the people" or "the light of the country" is not easy to say, but it is not difficult to gain a good reputation through respecting sages, seeking talents and cultivating talents. Therefore, longevity and virtue are enough to be passed down from generation to generation.
Confucius said: "The knower is happy with water, and the benevolent is happy with mountains;" The knower moves, and the benevolent is quiet; He who knows is happy, and he who is kind lives long. "Benevolent people live long; Benevolent people live long, that is, those with noble virtues, those with noble morals, those with kind hearts and broad minds, are easy to live long.
The Doctrine of the Mean also quotes Confucius as saying: "Those who are great in virtue get their place, their wealth, their fame and their longevity." In other words, people with high moral character are bound to gain corresponding social status, generous salary, good reputation and long life. A man of great virtue will certainly bear his fate.
The whole poem begins with a happy sentence, ends with a blessing to the children, and the host and guest end in a cheerful and harmonious atmosphere. Sing a hymn first, and then celebrate your birthday sincerely. At the end of the poem, the eulogists did not forget to add the phrase "after protecting Al", that is, it is the tradition of China people that children and grandchildren prosper, and the blessings of ancestors lead to the blessings of children and grandchildren, which makes the hierarchical rhythm of the poem reach a climax, showing the author's ingenuity.
There are terraced fields, mulberry trees, qi trees, rafters and gourds in the south mountain, and trees, poplars, plum trees, rafters and rafters in the north mountain, just like a country with gentlemen and sages of various virtues. This poem echoes from beginning to end, echoes before and after, and marks the birthday. Therefore, this is a very excellent feast and a song to enjoy the music of the universe.
The Zhou Dynasty is the longest and oldest dynasty in history so far. A large part of the reason why the Zhou Dynasty won the world was courtesy. By the time he arrived in Zhou Wenwang, he had gained two-thirds of the world and still obeyed the Shang Dynasty as a vassal. This is the embodiment of the spirit of propriety and righteousness, and it is the real political morality.
No matter which generation, the son of heaven has virtue, so that the talents in the world can return to their hearts and get talents; Only when the emperor reuses talents can the world maintain long-term stability; Only when Tianzi loves the people as much as his son can the people really praise him and pray for him, which will lay the foundation for national peace.
