Their birthdays are the 15th day of the first month, the 15th day of July and the 15th day of October, so the 15th day of the first month is also called Shangyuan Festival. Some people think that it evolved from a ceremony in the court of the Han Dynasty.

The fifteenth day of the first month is the Lantern Festival, also known as Shangyuan, Yuanxi or Lantern Festival. This is a colorful folk festival and the last day of the Spring Festival. Since then, everything has returned to normal, so people warmly celebrate it, so it is called off-year

According to legend, before the reign of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty, the fifteenth day of the first month was designated as the Lantern Festival, and Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty formulated the taichu calendar, which further affirmed the importance of the Lantern Festival. With the development of the past dynasties, the Lantern Festival has been continuously extended. According to legend, the Lantern Festival lasted only three days in the Tang Dynasty, extended to five days in the Song Dynasty, and increased to ten days in the Ming Dynasty, that is, it began on the eighth day of the eighth lunar month and ended in the seventeenth year.

Lantern Festival Manuscript Content 2: Customs of Lantern Festival.

Since the custom of decorating lanterns on the Lantern Festival came into being, it is a great event to watch lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first month in all dynasties. Emperor Wen of Liang Jian once wrote a poem "Li Edeng Fu": "The south is full of oil, and the west is full of paint. Su Zheng is resting in peace, and wax comes out of Longchuan. Oblique light reflection, clear reflection. " It depicts the grand occasion of decorating lanterns in the court of the Lantern Festival. During the reign of Yang Di, a grand banquet was held every year on the 15th day of the first month to entertain guests and envoys from all over the world. According to Sui Shu Le, the Lantern Festival is very grand, decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, singing and dancing day and night, with more than 30,000 performers.

There are more than 18,000 musicians and the stage is eight miles long. There are countless people playing with lights and watching them. They stayed up all night and enjoyed themselves. In the Tang dynasty, it developed into an unprecedented lantern market, and after the middle Tang dynasty, it has developed into a national carnival. In the prosperous period of the Tang Xuanzong Kaiyuan (685-762 AD), the lantern market in Chang 'an was very large, with 50,000 lanterns and all kinds of lanterns. The emperor ordered 20 giant lantern buildings with a height of 150 feet, resplendent and magnificent. In the Tang dynasty, a curfew was imposed, and it was forbidden to travel when drums were banned at night. Those who committed crimes at night were punished. Only on the Lantern Festival did the emperor grant a three-day ban, which was called "letting the night go". In the Song Dynasty, lanterns were extended from three nights to five nights. In addition to lanterns, fireworks were set off, and various juggling performances were held, making the scene more lively. "Tokyo Dream" records that during the Lantern Festival, on the Imperial Street in Kaifeng, 10,000 lanterns piled up into a lantern mountain, and the lanterns were fireworks, resplendent and magnificent. The girls in Kyoto are singing and dancing, and people are watching. "Tourists gathered under the two colonnades of the Imperial Street, with unique skills, singing and dancing, tangent scales and noisy music, stretching for more than ten miles." Streets and alleys, teahouses and restaurants, lights and candles are burning together, gongs and drums are loud, firecrackers are ringing, and hundreds of miles of lights are on.

In the Ming Dynasty, after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne in Jinling, in order to make the capital prosperous and lively, it was also stipulated that the lights should be turned off on the eighth day of the first month, 10 night 17: 00. Every household is hung with colorful lights, which depict all kinds of characters, dancing, singing birds and flowers, and making a dragon in Yue Long. Lanterns and fireworks shine all night, and the drums and music are ringing together. This is the longest Lantern Festival in China. In the Qing Dynasty, Manchu entered the Central Plains and the imperial court. The date was shortened to five days and continues to this day.

During the Tang and Song Dynasties, various acrobatic skills began to appear in the lantern market. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, besides riddles and hundreds of operas, there were also opera performances.

In addition to visiting the lantern market, people in the past dynasties also had customs such as welcoming children to visit Ce Shen, crossing the bridge and touching nails to walk away from all diseases, and playing games such as Taiping Drum, Yangko, stilts, dragon dance and lion dance.

Looking at the happy smiling faces of the uncles and eating the Lantern Festival made by ourselves, our hearts were full of pride.

Time flies like an arrow. The armed police uncles are going back to the team. We quickly stood in a row and said loudly, "Goodbye, Uncle Armed Police, Happy Lantern Festival, and see you soon!" Everyone laughed.
