Why is 4 1 year-old king for eight years?

Why is forty-one taboo? According to China Folk Encyclopedia, there are several folk allusions in Huanghuai area, but there is no evidence.

One? The ancient legend 1 has something to do with Qianlong's southern tour: Dezhou has been a land and water transportation hub between the north and the south since ancient times, especially the ancient Grand Canal, which makes Dezhou geographically very important. Shandong Waterway Governor's Office is located here, and the Ministry of Housing also has branches directly under it. In the history of Qianlong's several southern tours, Texas was the only place to pass, so the Qianlong Palace was built in Texas. On one occasion, Emperor Qianlong was stationed in Tezhou and received local officials as usual. When asked about the age of the young magistrate, the magistrate said 4 1 year. When Qianlong asked about the zodiac, the magistrate of a county was embarrassed because he was a dragon. It is disrespectful to say that you belong to the dragon in front of the emperor, and you are in danger of being beheaded. So, under the emperor's questioning, he blurted out that he belonged to a donkey, which aroused the emperor's happiness. Texas is rich in big black donkeys, which is quite famous in the surrounding areas. Because the big black donkey is rugged, rough and stubborn, it is often used as a metaphor for people, and later became a swearing word. As a result, the story of being a donkey at the age of 4 1 has gradually spread among the people. Texans are also beginning to taboo others knowing that they are 4 1 year old. Every time you are 465,438+0 years old, you can either make yourself 40 years old twice or 42 years old in a row.

2 ? Legend has it that in the Tang Dynasty, once, Emperor Taizong and Prime Minister Wei Zhi chatted together. Emperor Taizong asked Wei Zhi, "How old is Ai Qing this year? What is it?" Wei Zhi thought: the emperor is forty-one years old and belongs to a horse; I am the same age as the emperor, and I belong to a horse. If we are a family with the emperor, wouldn't it be neck and neck? So, Wei Zhi knelt down and said; "Long live the report, I am one fortieth this year, and I am a donkey." Donkeys are not as good as horses, so others can drive them. Emperor Taizong laughed after hearing this. He also knows that there are no donkeys in the zodiac, but Wei Zhi is playing tricks! But he was very proud to see that even a big official like Wei Zhi was teased by himself in such a mess.

Later, a Pizhou man who was an official in Li Chao went back to his hometown to visit relatives. The villagers asked him what it was like to be a Beijing official, and he revealed the secret story. Everyone was surprised: "Hey, this official is still timid! If you don't even care about your own zodiac, what face can you care about? The emperor is a horse and the minister is a donkey. What about the seven sesame officials? They must be neither donkeys nor horses! " From then on, everyone regarded forty-one as an ignominious age and tried to avoid talking. Over time, this strange custom was formed. Later, the saying that this is a donkey spread all over Xuzhou, but the age was slightly different. Or 45-year-old donkey, or 43-year-old donkey, only Xinyi, Suining and other counties, like Pizhou, are all 4 1 year-old donkeys.

Transmission area: Pizhou, Suining and Xinyi

Modern fortune-telling and mysticism explain that 1 is the homonym of forgetting, 5X8 is 40, that is to say, at the age of 4 1, you forget 40, so you are eight years old.

There is another saying, because this period, men are refractory. Women are very sexually active. If you don't satisfy a woman, you will be cuckolded. This is the origin of the year of Wang Ba.

2 ? Modern mysticism believes that the fate of human body has a digital peak, and men are at the lowest peak between 465,438+0 and 42 years old, so it is easy to have physical reasons or emotional problems.
