Chapter 242: Lin Rulan's Strategy
But Lin Rulan was not afraid at all, she lowered her head, and said softly in her voice: "Actually, Zihan's mother is Qingning's mother, right? Back then, you and Qingning's father liked her, but she finally chose Qingning's father." ”
Wang Zhicheng's face was hot, he just snorted, did not answer Lin Rulan's words, and strode forward.
Lin Rulan didn't stop there, quickly caught up with Wang Zhicheng, and said very sincerely: "Uncle Wang, in fact, no matter who is right or wrong, but things have passed for so many years, let it pass in the past, don't dwell on it anymore." No matter who you are, you should live in the present and look forward to the future, instead of always feeling nostalgic for the past and can't extricate yourself. Just like Zhu Yuanzhang, if he is entangled in his identity as a cowherd, then he will not be able to become Ming Taizu. The Ma family, who married him when she was poor, if she was not satisfied with Zhu Yuanzhang's poverty at that time, then she would not be able to become Queen Ma. I think, Uncle Wang, if you had let go of your children's hatred 20 years ago and blessed them instead of holding grudges, then everyone's life would have been better. ”
"You're talking too much!" Wang Zhicheng snorted coldly and walked away.
Lin Rulan smiled at the nervous Wang Zihan and shook her head slightly, indicating that it was okay.
After walking for a while, Lin Rulan and Wang Zhicheng stood together again.
She continued: "Uncle Wang, I know that you have always treated Zihan as your son, I think, no matter whose son he is, the most important person in his life must be you, not his biological parents. Now everything he has, you give. No matter what, you want him to live well and be happy. You have educated him so well, if you give him some support, then he will definitely be even better in the future, and even become an outstanding person. I think that if one day he becomes like that, the most fulfilling person will definitely be you. And Zihan will definitely not forget your nurturing grace, and will treat you as a father no matter what the circumstances. Therefore, I think that while Zihan is still young and has time to do whatever he does, I should give him more help and create more conditions for him, instead of creating trouble for him. In that case, it could ruin him. I think if his life is ruined, or if nothing comes to fruition in the end, the most painful thing will definitely be you. ”
Lin Rulan's last words deeply touched Wang Zhicheng, and the expression on his face also changed.
But in the end, he just sighed and didn't say anything.
Lin Rulan also accepted it when she saw it, and didn't persuade Wang Zhicheng to do anything.
After the three of them played with the Ming Tomb of Filial Piety, they went to the nearby Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum.
Lunch was eaten in the scenic area, and Wang Zhicheng did not refuse to sit down with Lin Rulan and Wang Zihan to eat together.
But when it was time to eat, he didn't say anything.
Wang Zihan didn't know what to say, but Lin Rulan occasionally said a few words to liven up the atmosphere.
When visiting the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum in the afternoon, Lin Rulan also said a few words from time to time to liven up the atmosphere.
Lin Rulan didn't know much about history, but when she visited the Ming Tomb in the morning and the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum in the afternoon, she still took out the historical knowledge she didn't learn much and discussed it with Wang Zihan. When discussing with Wang Zihan, she also asked Wang Zhicheng's opinion and asked him to identify whether what Wang Zihan said was correct.
After visiting the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, it was still early, and Wang Zhicheng took them to Zhonghuamen Castle again.
Zhonghua Gate Castle is the largest city gate fort in Jinling City, except for the city gate tower in the thirties of the last century when it was blown up by the Japanese in the tragic war, the rest of the place is well preserved.
When she walked into the Zhonghuamen Castle, Lin Rulan whispered to Wang Zihan, "Have you found that your master has become emotionally better?"
"A little!" When he was in the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, Wang Zhicheng would already talk to them a lot, and Wang Zihan was also very surprised by this.
Lin Rulan whispered again: "When we visit Zhonghuamen Castle, we try to talk to him as much as possible, and talk about things related to the history of Jinling, and he will definitely talk to us more!"
Wang Zihan nodded and approved Lin Rulan's suggestion.
"Zihan, can you tell me about the history of Zhonghua Gate?" When she walked into the city gate cave, Lin Rulan took Wang Zihan's hand and asked loudly: "Such a big castle, there must be a lot of historical allusions in it!"
Wang Zihan nodded, and also explained some historical allusions related to Zhonghuamen Castle for Lin Rulan.
The affairs of Zhu Yuanzhang and Shen Wansan, some interesting facts of the Ming Dynasty, and the events after the Taiping army captured Jinling in the Manchu Dynasty. Of course, what he talked about the most was the tragic history of the Japanese invasion of Jinling, the capital of China at that time, during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
After saying something, Wang Zihan said to Lin Rulan embarrassedly: "Actually, I don't know much about the history of Jinling, and some of it was told to me by my master. ”
"Uncle Wang, can you tell us more about the history related to Zhonghuamen Castle?" Lin Rulan understood, and immediately led the topic to Wang Zhicheng.
Wang Zhicheng hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke, telling them a lot of history related to Zhonghuamen Castle.
Zhonghua Gate was called Jubao Gate in the Ming Dynasty, it was the south gate of Jinling at that time, and it was the largest city gate among the thirteen city gates of Jinling at that time, with a total area of about 15,000 square meters. At that time, in order to ensure the quality of the imperial court, each brick was engraved with the name of the builder and the overseer. It is precisely because of the quality that is guaranteed, so after the change of dynasties, the history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Jubaomen is still well preserved, and is known as the first gate in the world. During the Republic of China, the Nationalist Government changed the Jubaomen to Zhonghua Gate, and the name of Zhonghua Gate was inscribed by the then leader Mr. Jiang. Oh, the city head changes the king's flag, and the tiger is better than the past. I don't know what the reason is, Wang Zhicheng said a lot, and quoted two verses of great men at the end.
Lin Rulan immediately responded: "Yes, after so many years, things are not people, when Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the construction of a cornucopia, he never thought that the Tartars who were expelled by him would eventually overthrow the Ming Dynasty he established." Although this Tartar is not another Tartar, it is a foreign race for us Han. I don't know how Zhu Chong feels if he has knowledge under the eight or nine springs? However, although things are different from people, there are always some things that have not changed. Zhonghuamen has been alive for more than 600 years, and in these 600 years, a family has multiplied for at least ten generations, or even more. There are a lot of things in life that really don't matter compared to the passage of time. ”
Speaking of this, Lin Rulan suddenly changed her words and asked Wang Zhicheng: "Uncle Wang, you said that the love and hatred of children is very light compared with the hatred of the country and the family? Zhonghuamen has witnessed hundreds of years of history, and what it remembers must be the vicissitudes of history, not the love of children, right?"
Lin Rulan's words made Wang Zhicheng's face change several times.
