The most correct statement about the different versions of God Lu is that,National deityThat is, God Lu.That is to say, God Lu isBican。
After his death, Bigan was awarded Wenqu Star, in charge of Wenyun.There are other titles, such as the God of State, the God of Wealth, etc.Its Chinese god is another title of Lu God.Many immortals have many external titles, some of them are upright, some of them are sealed.
Why does the god Lu compare with Gan.
The divine system was established earlier inremote dateAlready worshipped.However, most of the immortals I heard later came from the list of gods.Because there were not so many gods before, since the Zhou Dynasty, the Jade Emperor, who was in charge of the world, wanted to find some noble people to help him manage the mortal world.So they conferred gods on some meritorious people during the Shang and Zhou Dynasties and helped the Jade Emperor govern the mortal world.
Before that, it was said that Xuanyuan was the descendant of God.Therefore, the ancient kings were all direct descendants of the Xuanyuan family and were blessed by God.Before the Qin Dynasty, almost all kings were direct descendants of the Xuanyuan family. God was called Heaven, so the descendants of God called themselves the Son of Heaven.fromFirst Emperor of QinLater, he was no longer a descendant of the Xuanyuan family.The time of the divine system also belongs to the divine system of the Zhou Dynasty.
Of courseZhou TianziThey are also descendants of the Xuanyuan family.
After his death, Bigan was awarded the title of Wenqu Star and became the protector of literati.It is also the national god, that is, the god of wealth, and also the protection god of scholars.In common portraits, unicorns often appear with Bigan.But it is generally painted as deer, meaning the homonym of Lu.

Luxing, located in the northcelestial sphereBig DipperRight in front of.Because it always rises with the Big Dipper, it is easier to find.Sima QianThere is a passage about Lu Xing in the Records of the Historian, Tianguan Book, to the effect that the six stars in front of the Big Dipper are collectively called Wenchang Palace, and the last one is Lu Xing, who is in charge of official Lu.The ancients imagined the sky as a huge round roof on which all the stars roamed.But people found that there was one place that was motionless. Almost all the stars revolved around it. This was the center of the sky, where the emperor's palace was located.Ancient astrologers called itZiwei Palace, humanthe Forbidden CityEchoing each other from afar, it is a noble imperial residence.
The left and right columns areZiwei ZuoyuanandZiwei Youyuan"Yuan" means "city wall". They are like the city wall of the imperial palace.Outside the city wall, there is a carriage ready to go, which is the Big Dipper.Those who accompanied the Emperor of Heaven to patrol the four directions were naturally imagined to be the emperor's officials and generals.
In the view of ancient astronomersSocial orderIt is the same as the imperial society on earth.Even the name of the star officials can correspond to the official positions in the world one by one: the first two are military officers, respectively in charge of foreign war and domestic security, corresponding to the official positions in the Western Han Dynasty.Prime Minister, Siming, Sizhongclergy，High Priest。Silu ranked last, corresponding to the Western Han Dynastyminister of personnel, today's Minister of Personnel... "
Although Lu Xing, a distant celestial body, has been entrusted with the responsibility of taking charge of fame and wealth since the Western Han Dynasty, his position was not high at that time.Sima Qian ranked him at the bottom of the six stars in Wenchang Palace.However, after entering the Sui and Tang dynasties, the imperial examination system rose, and Lucheng became popular.The imperial examination gave ordinary people a chance to change their destiny by studying as officials.Although lucky people are only a small number of people, they give people a glimmer of hope after all.However, this is too narrow a sheep's intestines path, and I will naturally seek the help of the gods.So the Lucifer in the Wenchang Palace is very bright.Since he is responsible for the personnel selection in the heavenly palace, he will also be able to bless the scholar's success.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, the functions of Wenchang Palace were more unitary.Once the most important function in charge of human life has been replaced by other gods.And the word Wenchang is really in line with the urgent desire of Confucian scholars to seek fame and prosperity by writing.So Wenchang Star gradually became the synonym of Lucheng.The evolution of Lucheng entered the second stage, Wenchang Xingguan.
Wenchang Temple of Qiqu Mountain, Zitong County, Mianyang, Sichuan.The oldest existing Wenchang Temple is also the ancestor of all Wenchang temples in the world.Each cast iron statue of gods cast in the Song Dynasty weighs 12000 kg.Perhaps because he is too heavy to be destroyed, he has survived thousands of years of war and has survived to this day.It also gives us a chance to see the true face of Wenchang Star thousands of years ago.
The image of Wenchang Star in the Song Dynasty is the bearing of a court official.Several clerks and personal servants stood around, which set off his noble and extraordinary status.The temple takes the lead, and all kinds of auspicious patterns can be seen everywhere in Toad Palace, creating a beautiful artistic conception.
This is the place where scholars of all ages made wishes, and Wenchang Star is their lucky star.For scholars in the Song Dynasty, the Wenchang Star in front of them was not only a star official far away from the sky, but also a human god with a name. His name was Zhang Yazi. He was a brave general with outstanding achievements in the Jin Dynasty and a native of Zitong. After his death in the war, he was regarded as a god and revered as Zitong God.
Around 1114 ADSong HuizongHe presided over a grand Taoist conference.Nearly one thousand Taoists participated in the event, also known as the Thousand Taoist Association.The content of the meeting is to holdPlease Godceremony.The Taoists told the world to show their skills and invite all the immortals to go down.Immortals not only enjoy rich sacrificesSupplies, and were given new posts one by one.
Song dynastyFounding Emperorfounder of the Song dynastyRaise the army to attack Shu and win a great victory.HoushuemperorMeng ChangBeing captured and escorted to the capital of the Northern Song DynastyKaifengBianliang.Meng Chang was accompanied by his beloved concubine, Madame Huarui.After being put under house arrest by Zhao Kuangyin, Meng Chang and Mrs. Huarui stayed together in Shengong and lived together.Unexpectedly, Zhao Kuangyin fell in love with Mrs. Huarui's beauty, and Meng Chang's misfortune came.During a hunting trip in the countryside, Meng Chang was accidentally injured by a bow and arrow and died.When the bad news came, Mrs. Hua Rui was heartbroken.Zhao Kuangyin was afraid of her shortsightedness, so he hurried to get to the harem and sent someone to watch over her day and night, hoping that Mrs. Huarui would change her mind and love her.But Mrs. Huarui still can't forget her husband Meng Chang, and secretly asked the painter to draw a portrait of Meng Chang to express her yearning.In order to avoid being recognized, Meng Chang was specially dressed as a military officer, bending his bow and shooting arrows.However, the handsome appearance on the portrait still aroused Zhao Kuangyin's suspicion.
Once Mrs. Huarui wept silently in front of the portrait alone, and was seen by Zhao Kuangyin, so she questioned the name and identity of the person in the picture.Mrs. Huarui had a brainwave and lied that this was Zhang Xian, the famous immortal in Sichuan, who was worshipped to bless his early son.This event spread in the palace later, soTaoist ZhangBe fadedTaoist robe, put on a military uniform, and have Meng Chang's handsomehandsome manSince then, Zhang Xian has been famous for his appearance as a child deliverer.
Although this story does not appear in the official history, it is difficult to tell the true from the false.However, at the beginning of the Northern Song Dynasty, the saying that Zhang Xian sent his son has become popular in the world, but it is an indisputable fact.In the notes of scholars in the Northern Song Dynasty, another story of Zhang Xian giving a son to a man of letters in the Northern Song Dynasty is recordedSu ShiAnd his brotherSu Zhe。
Su DongpoHe and Su Zhe took part in the imperial examination in the same year. In the same examination room, the two brothers were both high school candidates, which caused a stir in the court.Once, before the two brothers were bornSu XunI dreamed that Zhang Xian bent his bow and shot into the skyatomic and hydrogen bombs。Su Xun didn't understand its meaning, so he hurried to ask respectfully, but Zhang Xian didn't answer, so he went away incognito.Until today, the two brothers were both in high school, and Su Xun suddenly understood.It turned out that Zhang Xian had already made a promise in his dream, and he would surely win both in the future.Su Xun also wrote a long poem named Zhang Xianzan to express his gratitude.
However, Su Xun has not yet explained the real reason why Zhang Xian became Lu Xing.In fact, the answer is hidden in the New Year picture.
In a picture of the Qing DynastyWeifang New Year picturesIn the middle, Zhang Xian is surrounded by a group of small dolls. He bends his bow to the sky, aiming at a cloudBlack dog。be known asHeavenly HoundIt is the name of an ancient constellation.ancientChinese mythologyMiddle, Tengu and humanDomestic dogIt is also a full-time home guard.However, the dog in the sky is much wider than the dog in the house. It is loyal to the Emperor of HeavenwatchdogIt is his duty to monitor the actions of the star officials.But this has provoked people's anger.Because in ancient timesChinaAccording to the folk concept, all the great people who won the gold list were born from the stars in the sky.And this Tiangou guards the Tianmen Gate and blocks the way of reincarnation of the lower bound of the Xingguan, which is clearly against the parents who are looking forward to success in the world.
So the ancient astrologers adjusted the stars in the sky accordingly.A bow and arrow named Arciya Star is specially placed in front of Tengu.The bow is full like the moon, and the arrow is on the string, facing the head of the dog.But this seems to be ineffective, because people find that children are smart when they are young, but they often do not like reading when they grow up. Only a few people win the first prize.So people suspected that Sagittarius did not keep an eye on Tengu, and he went down to destroy the children's bright future.Therefore, the appearance of the marksman Zhang Shenxian can be said to be just in time.He can not only bless the star officials in the sky to successfully care for the families of ordinary people, but also bless the children's bright future as top students in high school.Therefore, Zhang Xian became a beloved child sending fairy, and later joined the Samsung lineup.Replace the originalYuanwailang, and took up the new position of god Luxing.
Lu Xing, from an ordinary star, came down to earth and evolved into the god of imperial examinations that scholars worshipped. It also integrated the myth of Taoist Zhang and the emperor Meng Chang of the late Shu Dynasty, and turned into the immortal Zhang who gave birth to his son.
Lu Xing's legendary evolution experience is unique and charming.And finally make himFulushou SamsungChina, an indispensable brilliant star.

Scholars yearn for fame and wealth and offer sacrifices to ZitongWenchangshenEspecially pious.Every year on the third day of the first lunar month, scholars will go to the local Wenchang Palace to pay homage to Emperor Wenchang and hold candlesburn incense, offer a sacrifice and pray that the Emperor Wenchang will bless the success of the imperial examination and grant him fame and wealth.Sacrifice to God Lu has also evolved into a folk activity. Before the official performance of operas in festivals, there is often a“perform a special dance before the curtain rises”To wish the host family and guests good luck,win promotion and get rich。One person plays the role of God Lu, wearing a red official robe, wearing a white mask with a smiling face and holding a hugeChaohu, please write“First Class of the Dynasty”, walk around a few times, and then leave.Then he will take a child with a prop and walk around the court for a few weeks.In the end, he took a red banner in his hand and showed the words on the banner to the audience: "Increase official positions and promote career", which was also his exit after a few weeks.Tiaojiaguan contains the meaning of praying for the official luck granted by the god Lu.

After the homage, play a game called "taking official positions" to pray for good luck from God Lu.ScholarsLongan、hazelnut, peanutsDry FruitsRepresent the top scholars, the top ranked scholars and the top three of the Tanhua.One person holds one of the three kinds of dried fruits and throws them on the table. When some kind of dried fruit rolls to someone, it indicates that the person behind the dried fruit is the champion, the top ranked person or the flower.Play the game until everyone has an official position.The game contains the nature of divining official titles from the god of Lu.
The folk custom of offering sacrifices to the god of Lu is most prominent in the New Year pictures of the god of Lu.Lushen New Year picture is a picture of Wenchang Emperor, also known as Zitong God.It's justOfficial hatImages like official robes.Interestingly, on both sides of the Wenchang Emperor, two figures of children are often painted, commonly known as“Deafness”、“Ground hoarseness”, a deaf and dumb servant boy.Why should I paint beside the god Ludeaf-muteWhat about people as waiters?《General Guide to Immortals of Past Dynasties》Said:
(Zitong Zhenjun) The road is called Liuyang. Every time he drives a white mule, he follows two children, and the sky is deaf and the earth is dumb.Zhenjun is the commander of the article, and is tied by the nobility and inferiority. Therefore, he uses the deaf and dumb on the side, so that those who know him cannot speak, and those who speak cannot know, and the natural mechanism cannot be revealed.
It is said that the imperial examination questions were determined by Zitong God, so Zitong God decided the fate of scholars.The purpose of arranging deaf mutes as attendants is to ensure that the test questions are kept confidential.
Another kind of folk New Year pictures of Lu God adopts the method of homophonic metonymy, using deer instead of Lu God, and its auspicious color is more strong.Deer is a lovely animal, with wonderful stripes on its body and beautiful branches and horns on its head. It has been used as a mascot for a long time.Deer was first considered as a kind of benevolent animal.It's said that when a kingBenevolent governmentWhen the world is at peace, there will be deer with five colors generated by Yao Guang. This kind of deer is called Tianlu, which means that heaven is blessed.There is also a rare white deer, which is a symbol of longevity.Wei said that white deer can live to more than one thousand years old. White deer are changed from ordinary deer, and 500 year old deer begin to turn white.After the birth of the imperial examination, deer farmers gradually became famoussymbolic meaning , become the symbol of the god of Lu.Imperial examination systemAfter the death of Du, deer is still loved by people for its lively and beautiful image, and it is still a lucky animal that can bring wealth in people's minds.
In the folk New Year pictures of the god of Lu, deer are sometimes the mounts of the god of Lu in official robes, or the objects touched by people who look like officials, in order to highlight the theme of "entering Lu" and official accessibility;Sometimes, deer andBlessing GodIn the same picture of the god of longevity, the deer symbolizes Li Lu and represents the god of Lu.
