谈到清明节，有点历史知识的人，都会联想到历史人物介子椎。据历史记录，在两千多年从前的春秋时代，晋国公子重耳逃亡在外，生活艰辛，跟从他的介子椎不惜从自己的腿上割下一块肉让他充饥。以后，重耳回到晋国，作了国君（即晋文公，春秋五霸之一），大事封赏全部跟从他逃亡在外的跟从，唯一介子椎拒绝接受封赏，他带了母亲隐居绵山。
believing that he could force jie out by burning the mountain, the lord ordered his men to set the forest on fire. to his consternation, jie chose to remain where he was and was burnt to death. to commemorate jie, the lord ordered all fires in every home to be put out
on the anniversary of jies death. thus began the cold food feast, a day when no food could be cooked since no fire could be lit.
晋文公无能为力，只能纵火烧山，他想，介子椎孝敬母亲，必定会带着老母出来。谁知这场大火却把介子椎母子烧死了。为了纪念介子椎，晋文公命令每年的这天，严禁生火，家家户户只能吃生冷的食品，这就是寒食节的根源。
the cold food festival occurs on the eve of qing ming and is often considered as part of the qing ming festival. as time passes, the qing ming festival replaced the cold food festival.
