What entertainment items did the ancients have in autumn outing?

Speaking of autumn outing, the ancients have nothing to lose today.

Climbing mountains, enjoying chrysanthemums, eating crabs, holding poetry parties, riding and shooting, hunting in autumn, etc., even if the autumn wind is bleak, there will be no shortage of entertainment items for the ancients.

Give a few examples:

First, hunting in autumn

Ancient people can play autumn outing better than modern people. Hunting used to be a common thing, but now ... I'll see who hits one.

During the Kangxi period, autumn hunting even became an important hunting activity, which was called' Mulan Autumn Honey' in history.

Through autumn hunting activities, while training the children of the Eight Banners to ride and shoot well, they can also consolidate the relationship between Manchuria and Mongolia, which makes autumn hunting a top priority for the Qing emperors.

Second, climb mountains.

The ancients really liked climbing mountains. They climbed mountains all year round and exercised their muscles.

Unlike people nowadays, they spend their holidays in bed all day.

Come and taste the masterpieces of the ancients!

Ouyang Xiu's Autumn and Mount Matou Ascending wrote:

If the rain is red after the frost is clear, the festival will not be poor.

The sun is shining and the wine floats into the bottle.

The golden pot sprinkled ink, and the bluebird waved the wind on the table.

Only Yuan Ming preferred drinking, and failed in laundry list and drunkenness. ?

It's fun to climb the mountain in autumn just in time for the festival.

At this time, think about Ouyang Xiu's alcoholic name, and a thousand words can't help but become a sentence.

"Autumn is infinitely good, gentlemen, don't get drunk!"

Third, appreciate chrysanthemums.

Appreciating chrysanthemums is also a common practice of ancient literati, and there are countless famous sentences about chrysanthemums.

Yuan Zhen wrote in Chrysanthemum:

In autumn, the bushes, like Taoist priests, are more and more inclined around the fence.

It's not that chrysanthemums are favored among flowers, but that this flower is even more flowerless.

Look at the flowers and forget the time. Before you know it, the days are running out.

It's late autumn now, and all the flowers have withered. Only when chrysanthemums are in full bloom and scholars admire autumn chrysanthemums is a unique style.

It's time to enjoy chrysanthemums in autumn! Don't be lazy, go out and enjoy the flowers!

Fourth, eat crabs.

The ancients have long known that crab thieves are delicious! !

Li Bai once lamented that "the crab pincers are golden liquid, and the bad mountains are Penglai." And you have to drink on the platform next to the moon and get as drunk as a fiddler. "

Su Dongpo once lamented that "you don't live up to the goal of Lushan Mountain, and you don't live up to your stomach without eating crabs." In order to eat crabs, you even exchange poems for crabs. It left "I can laugh at the gluttony in Wuzhong, and a poem is worth two tips." A well-known story.

Eating a hairy crab comfortably in autumn is really fun.

I still remember when I watched a dream of red mansions, everyone was eating crabs and reciting poems. Now, this scene is still enviable.

Hairy crabs that look delicious.
