Ancestral Temple Ritual System is one of the important parts of Chinese Ancient Political Culture, to the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and gradually developed. However, enter the Spring and Autumn Period, it is due to the phenomenon of illegal ceremony come out one after the other,making the “falling down of the ceremony and propriety” has become synonymous with the Spring and Autumn Period. However, it was the development of society as a whole, the etiquette did not reach to the level of complete collapse. It specifically outlined five parts as follows:The first part is an introduction, mainly introduces the background and significance of this paper summarizes part of the results of previous studies scholars, expand the theoretical basis for the whole article.The second part focuses on the Shang and Zhou Ancestral Temple Ritual System overview.In the Shang Dynasty, zhouji for the carrier system is one of the key factors in the Shang kings to consolidate its political rule; Zhou dynasty in the summary of its experience and its own cultural characteristics basis through continuous innovation and development, and gradually formed a more complete and sacrificial ritual unique to the core of the Ancestral Temple Ritual System,and through the transformation of the descendants later became a dynasty etiquette system developed blueprint. Because of the nature and location factors such as the country makes Lu preserved the most complete Zhouli, ready to expand below.The third part researches on the destruction of the Ancestral Temple ritual system in Lu from the aspects of Jili, Xiongli, and others. Jili include imperial ancestral sacrifice, Zhaomu,Gaoshuo and the sacrificial ritual, Yiji, etc., Xiongli funeral mainly in terms of other aspects in addition to the "five rites" specific performance building ceremony. Lu as the most complete preservation of Zhouli, since the marquis, down to the officials, more or less appear for Jili,Xiongli and other violations of ritual behavior, as the representative of states.The fourth part focuses on the phenomenon of illegal gift of reason and content were analyzed. Enter the Spring and Autumn Period, due to the dominant political development,economic change and the cultural concepts such as “the light of God to men”, “the light of God to the people ” and other reasons, it is due to the phenomenon of illegal ceremony come out one after the other, making the “falling down of the ceremony and propriety” has become synonymous with the Spring and Autumn Period. But, the “propriety” still has a huge role, not only is the criterion for the individual to settle down, or an important way to safeguard a country for princes, even more, as a national security against the invasion and destruction of existence,violate ritual phenomenon was caused the reflection enlightened people of etiquette, which inturn led to the separation of instruments and ritual, and ritual law, and the current “rule of virtue”,“rule of law” has practical significance. Furthermore, it had a positive role in promoting the people at that time to break the shackles of traditional concepts, to form a free and open social scene and the rise up of the bachelor stratum.The fifth part is the conclusion the article, I think, one-sided that the Spring and Autumn Period is a completely “falling down of the ceremony and propriety” era is unscientific, At this time, etiquette is still valued, but Zhouli made by the Western Zhou Dynasty was already can not meet the needs of the community, so people on the ceremony made some changes and innovation.The violate ritual phenomenon of Spring and Autumn Period, though not all called etiquette innovation, but therefore considered etiquette this period was a complete collapse is biased,called etiquette’s some changes may be more appropriate. This article is intended to think about the violate ritual phenomenon from new point of view, to break the stereotype for the “falling down of the ceremony and propriety” understanding, in order to provide the new social ideas time for studying that society, at the same time, hoping to attach importance to the traditional civilization such as “propriety” and moral reflection on the lack of social phenomena.
