Why did the emperor call himself the Ninth Five-Year Plan? In fact, the ancient numbers "nine" and "five" all have meanings.

I believe that everyone in China dreamed of being an "emperor" who ruled the world and decided life and death. Especially when those costume dramas appeared in front of people, modern ancient styles became popular. For example, antique decoration is loved by teenagers, and imitators show their love for antique decoration. Another example is the poetic meter, which is popular among adults. It imitates the poems of ancient literati and mainly uses ancient "smooth clouds and water" and modern "new Chinese rhyme" to create.

Secondly, it imitates the "political circle" and other social contacts experienced by various groups with intrigue and intrigue in the palace costume drama "Daqin Empire". But do these antique people know the cultural connotation of the ancients? For example, the meaning of the ancient nine or why did the emperor call himself the statue of the ninth five-year plan?

First, the ancients' cognition and connotation of "Nine" 1, the emergence of "Nine in Mathematics"

In ancient times, people did not have numbers, and the simple way to remember things was "knot". That is, tie a rope repeatedly, and the "knot" appearing on the rope is used to take notes. It was not until later that Cang Xie began to engrave and record with shells and animal bones. At that time, it was only a digital memory of ten, and we didn't begin to apply it until the number * * * was quoted later.

Therefore, in ancient times, people had no meaning of numbers, and at most they were "hieroglyphics" carved on animal bones. However, according to historical records, capitalized numbers appeared in the Wu Zetian period and were widely used in the Ming Dynasty. There is a story here, because in the case of Guo Heng at that time, Zhu Yuanzhang issued a decree explicitly requiring people to change the original "one, two, three, four ..." into "one, two, three" to keep accounts, so when the number nine appeared depends on the time when Oracle Bone Inscriptions appeared in the Shang Dynasty.

2. The ancients' cognition of Nine.

In Huangdi Neijing Su Wen's Three Treatises on Nine Stages, it is said that "the number of heaven and earth begins with" and ends with "Nine Stages", so we can know that as early as the Huangdi period, the number "Nine" had a clear definition. In the past, Oracle Bone Inscriptions's "Nine" meant exploration, that is, it consisted of "One" (namely "arm") and "Being" (grasping and digging), which meant reaching out to touch and explore. This was the original intention until the Book of Changes wrote "the ninth day, the second day, the third day" and so on, giving it an intention.

In ancient times, people did not have the concept of digital memory, so they often counted with ten fingers. Among the ten fingers, ten fingers are considered as "limit" and nine fingers are before the limit, so the limit is called "nine". So in ancient times, people had nine books and nine days. Later, Zhou Wenwang Yan Bagua also defined "nine" as "limit", so he wrote in "Gan Yi Classical Chinese" that "nine is used for dry yuan, and the world is governed".

3. The wide application of "Nine"

Ancient dynasties thought that "Nine" was the pole of heaven and earth, so they created it in all fields. Jiuding is the most famous and mysterious tripod we are familiar with. At that time, Yu Xia took "Nine" as his idea, took the world as his pole, created Jiuding, and carved everything in the world on it. At the same time, it is divided into nine in governing the world, which is called "Kyushu".

In architecture, the ancients used it to the extreme. In the world-famous Forbidden City, all the main halls are designed and built with the design of "9 feet 9 feet", and even the doornails on the temple gate, the palace gate and the large and small city gates are horizontal and vertical, totaling 998 1 piece. The same is true on the steps, followed by the number of rooms in the Forbidden City, all of which are nine or multiples of nine. It is conceivable how much people in ancient times loved "Nine".

Second, the cultural thought embodied in the "Five" 1, the meaning of "Five"

"Five" first appeared in Oracle Bone Inscriptions's "gold, wood, water, fire and earth", which represents the constituent elements of everything in the world. Stars such as wood, fire, earth, water and gold in the sky are counted, and the earth is divided into gold, wood, fire, earth and water to represent five objects. Secondly, it is divided into five directions: east, south and water.

Because of this, the ancient literati were influenced by the "Yin-Yang and Five Elements" and used them in various fields, such as five internal organs, five colors, five tones, five parties, five senses and so on. The "five elements" became the "holy number" in people's traditional thinking. In the Northern Song Dynasty, it was recorded in the Reconstruction of Wuxian Cave in Guangzhou that "immortals and sheep clothes are different colors, such as five sides. There are win-win ideas and theories. It can be seen that the ancients used five behaviors as the basis for the definition of everything in the world.

2. The concept of Yin-Yang and Five Elements

In ancient times, scholars and literati in society all distributed their ideas based on the theory of "Yin-Yang and Five Elements", which was reflected in all aspects, among which Chinese medicine, religion and astronomy were famous. It can be said that since the emergence of the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements in the Western Zhou Dynasty, people in later generations have been influenced by it.

As the core of classical philosophy, Yin-Yang and Five Elements are of great help to later generations in studying astronomy, geography and space. At the same time, many famous people have annotated the enlightenment thoughts in various periods, such as "Everything is negative and holds Yang" in Laozi, and "One Yin and One Yang is Tao" in Yi Zhuan. Therefore, in the understanding of the ancients, the theory of Yin and Yang was defined as an important theory of auspicious choice, and the theory of five elements became the philosophical thought of the ancients.

On the other hand, people regard the five elements as a kind of "cultural thought", and think that water, fire and earth in Jin Mu are the most basic substances that constitute the material world. These five substances change and influence each other, so these changes and influences are defined as "fate" and "gram", and at the same time, Yin and Yang are distinguished from the five elements and given different meanings.

For example, it is pointed out in Su Wenyin's On the Image of Yang Ying, "Yin and Yang are the way of heaven and earth, the discipline of all things, the parents of change, the beginning of life and death, and the home of God." He also said, "Clear Yang is the sky, turbid Yin is the ground. Clouds in the earth's atmosphere and rain in the weather; Rain comes out of the atmosphere, clouds come out of the weather, which shows how far the ancients have gone on the road of ideological philosophy.

Third, the Ninth Five-Year Plan won the global honor with 1, and gave the implication of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

As mentioned above, nine and five have different meanings, and the ninth five-year plan symbolizes supremacy. The Book of Changes says, "Ninth Five-Year Plan: The flying dragon is in the sky, which is beneficial to meet adults." Kong also said that "the sun shines in the sky, so it is said that' the dragon is in the sky'. This natural image is like a saint living in the sky, with the virtue of a dragon and flying. " They all show the dignity and status of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, so people often refer to the Ninth Five-Year Plan as emperor and emperor.

Another way of saying it is that in ancient times, people divided numbers into positive numbers and negative numbers, odd numbers were positive and even numbers were negative. Nine is the highest yang number, and five is in the middle, so "nine" and "five" symbolize the authority of the emperor. Later, it was also called the Ninth Five-Year Plan, which also described ancient emperors.

Because the Ninth Five-Year Plan symbolizes the supreme noble meaning between heaven and earth, the dignitaries in ancient feudal society and the officials and eunuchs who surrounded the emperor all day like to call them the rulers at that time, which shows their ability to kiss up. Later, people got used to this title, mainly because the emperor was indeed the most powerful ruler at that time, and it was nothing to call it that way, so they later agreed with this concept.

2. The nature of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

We can find the explanation and application of the Ninth Five-Year Plan in the literature and classics of various dynasties, most of which are about the events of the supreme ruler at that time. For example, "The Biography of Turkic in the Old Tang Dynasty" wrote that "the reason why Turks swept across the territory and went straight to Weibin should be that we heard that our country was at home and abroad at the beginning and listed us in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, which means that we dare not refuse." It is said here that the Ninth Five-Year Plan represents the status of the emperor at that time, and in the Book of Jin, Wang Yuechuan in the East China Sea, it is written that "the crown will be cracked and destroyed, but fortunately it is a hundred times; Let's take a look at the Ninth Five-Year Plan. "

From what has been said above, we can see that it is generally believed that the Ninth Five-Year Plan refers to the emperor in ancient times. It is precisely because the Ninth Five-Year Plan represented the highest position at that time and symbolized the supremacy between heaven and earth, so the ancients called the emperor at that time "the statue of the Ninth Five-Year Plan", which was simple and clear, and the nature it represented was well understood, so it was recognized by many people.

Another way of saying it is that among the six hexagrams of divination, one, two, three, three, four, four, five and six hexagrams symbolize people, the earth and the sky. If calculated by social class, it corresponds to ordinary people, county officials, county officials, central officials and emperors respectively.

Judging from the hexagrams, the ninth day: Hidden Dragon, no need. 92: See the dragon in the field, so you can meet adults. 93: A gentleman works all day, and if he is late, he has no blame. 94: It's not strange to jump deep. The ninth five-year plan: the flying dragon is in the sky. It's good to see adults. Shangjiu: Kang Long, have regrets. If you are a hidden dragon at first, you are accumulating your own soaring capital and waiting for your strength to take off. In the Ninth Five-Year Plan, you will take off when you encounter wind and rain, and turn the wind into a real dragon.

Combined with the interpretation of hexagrams, we can know that the Ninth Five-Year Plan in the Book of Changes represents a full-fledged dragon, the dragon is the most noble, and the emperor is the supreme in the world. Therefore, the ninth five-year plan means the emperor on the earth, representing the most outstanding figures. Later, people called the emperor the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

Conclusion: It is an indisputable fact that the philosophical realm of ancient people is not comparable to that of our present people. Good as the Book of Changes. If anyone can really understand it now, it is estimated that no one has. Take Huangdi Neijing as an example, it is estimated that no one can create the same works. All these show the wisdom of the ancients.

If anyone disagrees with this statement, you have to say a truth. If you are in a class-ruled society such as feudal superstition, don't you create these classics without the help of modern performance?
