According to legend, China's New Year's Day began on the Zhuan Xuan, one of the three emperors and five emperors, and has a history of more than 5,000 years. Legend has it that more than 4,000 years ago in the ancient Yao and Shun prosperous times, Yao was diligent in the people and did a lot of good things for the people during his reign, and was very loved by the people, but because his son was not talented and the manuscript was not very successful, he did not pass on the leader of the "tribal alliance" to his son, but passed it to Shun, who had both moral and moral talents. Yao said to Shun:

You must pass on the throne in the future, and you can rest assured when I die. ”

Later, Shun passed the throne to Yu, who had contributed to the flood control, and Yu was also like Shun, who was close to the people and loved the people, and did a lot of good things for the people, and was very loved. Later, people regarded the day when Emperor Shun sacrificed heaven and earth and the first emperor Yao after Yao's death, as the beginning of the year, and called the first day of the first month "New Year's Day", or "Yuanzheng", which was the ancient New Year's Day.
