How to write ancient notices?

Sixteen Ancient Styles (III): Notices \ x0d \ x0d \ Notices are downward official documents given to the people in ancient times. This style has existed since ancient times and is called "patent", "notice" and "Oracle". Shangshu has a patent of Tang Dynasty, which is probably the earliest notice in the history of China. But it was spoken at that time. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, in order to tell people about some will and important events widely and quickly, the government posted "notice" documents on the main roads under the jurisdiction of this yamen to show the people. Before the new official of the Qing Dynasty took office, there was a notice written in red paper in front of the yamen, which was called "red sign". \ x0d \ x0d The writing of the Notice requires that "all advice should be concise, not flashy, so-called women and children know it." In other words, the "notice" should be simple and clear, and the language should be simple and clear at a glance. \x0d\\x0d\ Example1:\x0d\ x0d \ Notes for Entry \ x0d \ Liu Bang \ x0d \ x0d \ My father suffered severely from Qin State for a long time, and the couplets abandoned the market. I have an appointment with the governors. The first one to enter the customs is Wang Zhi, and I am the crown prince. Make a pact with elders in three chapters: murder, wounding and theft. I learned how to get rid of Qin. The government and the people are as blocked as before. I'm here to help my father and brother, so don't be afraid! Besides, I am in charge of the army, and the princes have to restrain their ears when they arrive. \ x0d \ x0d \ translation \ x0d \ x0d \ fellow villagers have long been subjected to the harsh rule of law in the Qin Dynasty, and those who failed in criticizing state affairs were exterminated, and they should be caught and beheaded in the downtown area. I agreed with the governors that whoever advanced to Xianyang would be king, and now I should be king in Guanzhong. I have an appointment with my father and others to legislate in three chapters: those who kill people will be sentenced to death, and those who hurt people will be sentenced to theft. In addition, all the harsh laws of the Qin Dynasty were abolished. The government and the people are fairly stable. The reason why I entered Xianyang was to kill the pests for my father and the people, not to be invaded and hurt. Don't be afraid! Besides, the reason why I am stationed in the overlord is to wait for the arrival of the vassals and formulate constraints. \x0d\\x0d\ Example 2: \x0d\\x0d\ No gift notice \ x0d \ x0d \ Harry \x0d\\x0d\ accepting local gifts from the Ministry, the recipient receives 40% of the gifts, and the recipient subtracts one, which is prohibited by law. Every time people of all colors in the grain receive wages and send food, it is forbidden. Poor, so beggars' gangs follow the old customs, which is regarded as a common thing today. And your name flatters the government, which shows that there is indeed a demand. It shows that it is not easy for the people you want to protect the government. Now he pays little attention to his own career, taking private debts, taking advantage of many disciplines, taking advantage of others and doing whatever he wants. If it pleases you, then the branch secretary of Zhou's street office is in a hurry. Officials are paid, why do they succeed in making a fortune? It is not a shallow trap to be an official, to take the people, and to take one and take ten. In the future, anyone who delivers meals to the county gate with pay will be convicted with financial instructions. Although it is a gift from township officials, it must be reported to the public before it is put in. If it is loaded with other things, and the guard fails to search by mistake, the cangue will bear a heavy responsibility. \ x0d \ \ x0d \ translation \ x0d \ \ x0d \ accepting gifts of local products from its subordinates, the recipient will be flogged by 40, and the participants will be demoted by one level, which is expressly prohibited by law. All kinds of people, such as grain chiefs and village heads, often send firewood and vegetables to their bosses, which cannot be stopped. The reason why feed can't be banned is probably that it has inherited the past ethos, and now it is regarded as a common thing. The gift giver is nominally flattering the government, but the implication is that there are other plans. He said that he had other designs, probably expecting that the government would not turn against him easily. Now, with a little courtship, one day I will undertake official business, extort money from private houses, collect more money and food, take advantage of others and be unscrupulous. If it's really good, give it to someone in need near you. Why do officials get paid and their wealth keeps increasing? Gifts for officials come from the people. It's not a shallow trap to give one gift and get back ten gifts. In the future, anyone who sends firewood and vegetables to the county government will be convicted of accepting bribes. Even if it is a squire's gift, the gatekeeper should report it first and allow it to be put in. The giver disguised himself as a county official with other things, and the gatekeeper who failed to find it will be severely punished by wearing a cangue. \x0d\\x0d\ Example 3: \x0d\\x0d\ Avoid rhetoric \ x0d \ x0d \ Hong Rengan \x0d\\x0d\ Heavenly Father Heavenly Brother King Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, loyal minister and strategist Ding Tianbang Hong, Ding Tianbang young Meng, and Li Tianguan. Words come from the heart, but clever words are forbidden. Dear father and brother Tian, I have opened a heavenly grace and personally ordered me to be the master of the world, to follow the right path, to preserve the truth and discard the false, and to wash away the decadent wind. It was sent by my God before, and the documents and deeds of the previous generation were deleted. That is, the Six Classics and other books are also the school of Yu Bi. Unless I am God, I am afraid that it will tempt people and disturb the truth, so I have to abandon falsehood and follow the truth, so that everyone can know that words are not enough, and the truth lies in people's hearts. At the time of the founding of the People's Republic of China, we should write a letter, especially one related to politics. It should be simple and clear, and there should be no slight provocation. Incite rebellion, so this is a surprising and frightening pen. Moreover, it has this chapter, and the words "Lund", "Long Yan", "Bailing", "carrier", "country" and "ancestral temple" are not allowed. The floating words on birthdays, such as "Crane Count", "Year of the Tortoise", "Yue Sheng" and "I am lucky to be born in three years", are especially neither fish nor fowl, and involve fake birthdays. The reason is that scholars are secretive, or young people are high-spirited and like to talk sarcastically; Still a new talent, want to boast about learning wealth. Even if you dance with words and make ink, a word will suppress its words, and then you will be judged as low. One thing is also good and bad, and it is difficult to distinguish between merits and demerits. If you don't listen attentively, it will waste you a lot of time. It can be seen that those who use floating prose are not only useless, but also harmful. \ x0d \ x0d \ Our military adviser and others recently went to the DPRK, and the Lord of Hermon sent an imperial edict: "The first thing to know is the grace of heaven, the grace of the Lord and the grace of the East and the West. Secondly, tell the truth, from a certain date, where it comes from, who is the evidence, one by one, the language is conclusive, and it is not allowed to be charming and vain; But I have a sense of piety and don't need classical Chinese, so I changed the dictionary to the meaning of words. " Our strategist has been fighting with others all morning, and they respect him very much. To this end, a special proclamation was issued, which was known to officials and scholars inside and outside the DPRK; The recitation of the following chapter, as well as the translation of the text and the enlightenment of the book, should always be clear and clear, so that people can see at a glance, in order to be in harmony with nature and realize the truth. Don't follow the old habits in vain and live up to the advice of the military adviser. I hereby declare that everyone should abide by it! \x0d\\x0d\ Heavenly Father, Heavenly Brother, Heavenly King, eleven years of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, declared \x0d\\x0d\ translated \x0d\ Heavenly Father, Christian God and Lord, Heavenly Brother, Christian Savior Jesus, Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan, loyal militarist of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Hong Rengan, Meng, praised Heavenly King to help the Chaogang, Temple. The announcement is made to let all officials, documents and other relevant personnel inside and outside North Korea know that according to the investigation, the article is used to record facts, the place where grandiose rhetoric style appears should be deleted, it is more important for rhetoric to obey the will, and posturing rhetoric should never be banned. Thinking of God, the father, and Jesus, the heavenly brother, he personally sent Hong Xiuquan, our true Lord, to be our master, practicing the right path, eliminating the false and preserving the true, and washing away all decadent smells. So not long ago, I thanked our God for deleting all the books that were not in line with the actual situation in the previous generation. Even books such as the Six Classics should be deleted by the King himself. It's not that we, Allah, spare no efforts, but we are really afraid that those books will tempt people and confuse the truth, so we should be eager to discard the false and let everyone know that the vain style of writing is not worth promoting, and the truth will naturally be deeply rooted in people's hearts. Besides, it is time for People's Republic of China (PRC) to be established. All commemorative proclamations, especially those related to politics, should be plain and simple, and there should be no extreme satire that alienates people and deliberately makes people worry and fear. And when writing this chapter, you are not allowed to use such bad words as "Longde", "Long Yan", "Bailing", "Aircraft Carrier", "Country" and "Ancestral Temple". As for the floating words of birth, such as "crane calculation", "Year of the Tortoise", "Yuesheng" and "three lucky students", they are neither fish nor fowl, which is almost absurd. The reason is probably because some of the bachelor of arts are young and energetic, and they like to play their talkative skills; Some just won the imperial examination by literary talent and wanted to brag about their profound knowledge. Even when words with different colors are used in the same statement, things will be judged. If the statement of the same thing is ambiguous, it will be difficult to distinguish. If the hearing is not sensitive, it will be a big delay. It can be seen that people who write floating prose are not only useless to things, but harmful to things. \ x0d \ x0d \ Our military adviser and others recently went to court, owing to the real Lord, the king of heaven, who issued an imperial edict to his face: "First of all, we must know the kindness of God, the kindness of the Lord and the kings of the East and the West. Second, we must tell the truth in a down-to-earth manner, starting from the year, month, day and place, and everyone should speak clearly. Every sentence must have a source, and there must be no pretence of a word, let alone vain words; Leaving only the meaning of piety and humility, I don't quote classical rhetoric, so I changed the dictionary to "word meaning." The strategist and others fought early in the morning, respectfully, respectfully and in awe. This is a special announcement, which I hope all officials and clerks inside and outside China will know. In the future, the recitation of this chapter, as well as official documents and letters, should be clear and clear, so that people can see at a glance, so as to conform to the natural situation and the law of truth. Never repeat the old habits, or you will be conceited and live up to the kindness of this strategist and others. It is hereby declared that everyone should obey in awe! \x0d\\x0d\ Heavenly Father, Heavenly Brother, Heavenly King, Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it was announced some day in the eleventh year of his reign. \ x0d \ x0d \ Example 4 4: \x0d\\x0d\ \ Four Seas live and work in peace and contentment \ x0d \ X0d \ Yang Xiao Chaogui \ x0d \ x0d \ The only thrill, Wo Naishi, Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Redeemer, Zheng Junshi, Dong He You Bi Zheng Junshi. Since Hunu disturbed China, he led the people to worship evil gods and abandon the truth, rebelled against God, and advocated the people to become demons, which was totally inhuman and angered God. At the same time, he abused me, ruined my life and made Sven sweep the floor. Farming is hard, and at the age of 20, businessmen come and tax them. The world is sad, and the Central Plains is angry. \x0d\\x0d\ Our military adviser is devoted to heaven and does not insult the people, and builds a banner of righteousness to suppress evil spirits and revitalize them. This is what every county has experienced, such as rain, standard and solution. This providence is clear, and the witness's heart responds. Since the Guangxi uprising, no matter where you go, people who resist Wang Shi have become obedient brothers, while those who are afraid of Tianquan are frightened by this news. \ x0d \ x0d \ We are building Wang Ye here. We should worship God as soon as possible, eliminate evil spirits, repay God's desire and get God's blessing. Scholars and industry and commerce perform their respective duties. Since the imperial edict, you should settle down in Sang Zi and keep your career happily. The holy soldiers should not make mistakes, and everyone should not be surprised. Don't be surprised when traveling in the city, but think of the hope of the Soviet Union. For this reason, I made a special letter saying that Aner is kind, telling the world that everyone should abide by it and not disobey it. \ x0d \ x0d \ translation \ x0d \ x0d \ x0d \ x0d \ The real fate of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is that the master of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Wo Nai, redeemed the sick, and Yang, the assistant strategist, and Xiao Chaogui, the strategist of Right Bi, sent a notice to people in all directions to live and work in peace and contentment. It is almost a sigh that since the Manchu Tatar disturbed China, he led the people to worship evil gods but gave up the true god, rebelled against God, and led the people to become demons and people, which angered God. In addition, he brutally abused my people, killed my people, indulged the copper smell of the country and trampled on scholars. Farmers work hard and suffer disasters every year. Businessmen come and go, and they are taxed at checkpoints, which makes people everywhere sad and makes people all over the country angry. \ x0d \ x0d \ This strategist, whether engaged in this mission or stopped, obeyed God's will and could not bear the people to fall into an extremely difficult situation. He raised the banner of justice to destroy the demon Hu and mobilized to destroy the demon. The county he passed was like a timely rain, and the place pointed by the standard was like a person hanging upside down, which was proved according to the very clear will of the Emperor of Heaven. Since jintian uprising, Guangxi, wherever they went, strikers rose up against the Taiping rebels, and those who were afraid of the great power of the Taiping rebels were frightened by the news. \ x0d \ x0d \ is now starting the great cause of emperors, and earnestly admonishes all the people to respect God as soon as possible, destroy evil gods to praise the heart of the Emperor of Heaven, so as to receive the blessing of the Emperor of Heaven, and scholars, farmers, artisans and businessmen should do their own business. After receiving this notice, you should all settle down in your own homes and settle down in your original jobs. The Taiping Army will never invade you. All Lebanese people should not be afraid. They should travel and trade as usual, undisturbed. It is just around the corner to think that people will recover and live. To this end, we will issue a notice to appease your kindness, announce it to the whole world, and let all localities know that everyone will abide by it in awe and not violate it. \ x0d \ x0d \ Notice of the first day of May in the third year of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. \x0d\\x0d\ Example 5: \ x0d \ x0d \ Wing Wang Shi Dakai's resignation notice \ x0d \ x0d \ Shi Dakai \x0d\\x0d\ told all the soldiers and civilians. To be ashamed of your wit is to be ashamed of your elegance. However, if you are loyal to your ambition, you will be a pure my heart, which can be higher than God and lower than the world. Last year, I rushed back to Beijing, boasting that I was stupid, and I would be enlightened by sages: things are different, and imperial edicts are frequent. The rebirth of doubt is hard to do. Doubt will do harm, and it is difficult to tell a hundred birds' mouths apart. However, efforts are made to reveal the truth, repay the virtue of God, and repay the mercy of the Lord. Only after the success of this period will Yu return to the forest. To this end, we have issued letters to all the soldiers and civilians, and still stick to our duties and make contributions, or follow our Lord and make the same contribution. Unify the Taiping Day and invite the fields. \ x0d \ \ x0d \ translation \ x0d \ \ x0d \ In order to show my mind, I patiently told all the soldiers and civilians. I am ashamed that my intelligence is not high, but I deeply owe it to the heavenly king. Only by swearing wholeheartedly and with a little heart can we face God in this world and prove the world in the afterlife. Last year, Tianjing was anxious to return to Beijing to drive out the rebellion, thinking that this move was just a manifestation of ignorance and loyalty, and it would certainly get the understanding of the heavenly king. However, the result is not like this. The Heavenly King frequently issued one imperial edict after another, which caused me a lot of doubts and suspicions. It's really hard to explain. Too many suspects will plot persecution against me, even if there are hundreds of people, it is hard to tell. I had to revive my spirit, try to encourage myself, send troops to conquer, show sincerity, do my best to repay the kindness of God, and do my best to repay the great kindness of the heavenly king. I only hope that after success, I can realize my ambition and return to the team. For this expedition, I patiently issued this notice, patiently informing all the soldiers and civilians that they still have to stick to their posts and make contributions. Some people can follow the Lord as they please, or they can make meritorious deeds by killing the enemy. The day of reunifying the whole country is too ordinary, and each invites merits to enjoy grace.
