The important Confucian academic classics in pre-Qin Dynasty---Rites of Ceremonies, Rites of Zhou Dynasty, and Book of Rites-are known as the “Three Rites” by later generations, which takes “rites” as the same center. There is a fundamental point in the discussion of “rites” in “Three Rites”, which emphasizes that “rites” are based on human feelings, and they are not used to rule people, but to nurture them. Nurturing people is not to rule the people well, but to lead them well; not to make the people suffer, but to make them happy. Nurturing is not just to make people’s material life rich, but also to enrich their spiritual life. Spiritual life is rich in aesthetic cultural connotation, which fully reflects the people’s understanding and pursuit of aesthetics in that period, and involves “outlooks on the world and ecology” of aesthetic mind, outlook on moderation of aesthetic ideal, “outlook on rites and music” of aesthetic theme and “outlook on life” of aesthetic territory. “Three Rites” culture contains the basic contents of Confucian aesthetics and is an important source of Chinese aesthetics. Although the ritual system mentioned in “Three Rites” has disappeared, the spirit of “Three Rites” still exists in the spiritual culture of the Chinese nation, and its aesthetic consciousness has turned into the collective consciousness of the Chinese nation, which continues to this day. “Three Rites” is the national ideology of the Chinese nation, and its aesthetic thought is the national aesthetics of the Chinese nation.
