Chapter 49: How to Commit Suicide with Grace

During the two years of Yuelu Academy, His Majesty the Emperor and the Deputy Mountain Elder were both well water and did not interfere with the river water, the Deputy Mountain Elder did not see the outstanding of His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty the Emperor did not show the superiority of the group, barely hanging in Class B, with medium grades, not outstanding, not backward, ordinary and ordinary.

When I entered the school, I wrote a "Yuelu Fu", His Majesty the Emperor had a kinship, and felt that the deputy mountain elder had eyes and did not know gold and jade, so that a beautiful Fu pearl was secretly invested, in addition, the two had little intersection, and the deputy mountain elder occasionally forgot that there was such a student with a deep background in the academy.

His Majesty the Emperor can't afford to set off a big storm in Zhu Taifeng's heart, and Li Yuanying is not at all like the emperor and empress of the Tang Dynasty, excellent and outstanding, and the prickly head is a big headache, in addition to arguing with Chen Luoyan every day, Li Yuanying's performance is decent, and it is difficult to leave a strong mark in the history of the millennium courtyard.

What can really leave traces in the hearts of the elders of the deputy mountain is that Chen Luoyan, He Chengpeng, Zheng Chenglong, Norma, even Wen Zhiqian he remembers, but he knows very little about His Majesty the Emperor, only knows that there is such a person.

So His Majesty the Emperor invited the deputy mountain elder to sit down and chat together, Zhu Taifeng felt a headache, His Majesty the Emperor was too ordinary, he didn't have any unique insights in academic articles, and he didn't have eye-catching literary attainments, he did all the tinkering things, and his personality was too upright, he was not very good at complimenting people, everyone was not familiar with each other, and there was nothing to talk about.

But Li Yuanying has a stomach full of bitter water to confide, and a body of grievances to wash away: "Vice-mountain elder, do you remember? I just arrived at the academy, and one day it was raining, Chen Luoyan revealed to you that someone was peeking through holes in the walls of the men's and women's courtyards, but in fact, it was Chen Luoyan peeking at the men's courtyard, and we were all wronged. There was also the fire incident in the kitchen of the academy, which was caused by Chen Luoyan, and I just happened to pass by. By the way, there was also the incident of the destruction of the mountain water wheel in Houshan, Chen Luoyan deliberately smashed the water wheel with a stone, and I didn't succeed in stopping it. When I left Yuelu Academy, the books of Tianyi Pavilion were transferred and placed, which was also done by Chen Luoyan, a traitorous villain, and had nothing to do with me. ”

Zhu Taifeng nodded, took a sip of tea, and echoed: "I see, ah, it's the grass people who blame Your Majesty." ”

His Majesty the Emperor, who had washed away his grievances, was slightly moved, and when he looked up and saw the confusion between the eyebrows of the deputy mountain elder, his heart suddenly changed: "The deputy mountain elder, you won't forget everything, right?"

Zhu Taifeng looked at Li Yuanying for a moment: "The grass people are older, and they really don't remember very well. ”

His Majesty the Emperor couldn't help but want to cover his face, these grievances are the days when there is no redress for grievances, sad and lamentable!

"Ahem, ahem. Zhu Taifeng coughed twice, attracting the attention of His Majesty the Emperor: "If Your Majesty has time, you can go to the east of the city to visit the mountain elder, and the mountain elder has been ...... The mental state is not very good. ”

"The mental state of the mountain elder?" Li Yuanying was puzzled, when he was far away in Yuelu Academy, the mountain elder was famous for his detached mentality, no desire and no desire, and now the Yuelu Academy has collectively moved into the Northern Wei Dynasty, Li Yuanying did not think about letting the mountain elder fight against the Sage Academy in Southern Liang as the leader of the scholars, let alone put the academy people in the imperial court as officials and serve the Northern Wei Dynasty, only let them study hard and do what they like, how can the mountain elder his own mental state not be very good first.

Zhu Taifeng thought about the wording: "Recently, the mountain elder has been studying how to commit suicide gracefully. ”

"Graceful suicide?" Li Yuanying was even more puzzled, she leaned forward and asked cautiously, "Is the mountain master crazy?"

Zhu Taifeng respected Gu Yuanchang, Li Yuanying was afraid that this somewhat disrespectful sentence would annoy Zhu Taifeng, look, His Majesty the Emperor is not so easy to be, and he needs to take into account the feelings of many people, especially those he can't afford to provoke, but the result was unexpected, Zhu Taifeng nodded approvingly: "Maybe it's really crazy." ”

Zhu Taifeng thought that he was crazy, that is, there was really a problem, Li Yuanying stood up: "Deputy Mountain Elder, let's go and see the Mountain Elder quickly." ”

Saying that, she had already walked out of Cining Palace like the wind, and Zhu Taifeng followed closely and advised: "Your Majesty, don't forget the matter on the first floor of Tianyi. ”

"I can't forget, I can't forget!" Li Yuanying's voice came.

The two of them came to the east of the city to settle the mansion of the people of Yuelu Academy, a full sixteen large mansions, opened up before and after, forming a proper academy, hundreds of people inside and out, it stands to reason that it should be crowded and chaotic, but at this time, everyone in the academy is in order, they should read and read, they should write and write, even if they argue, they are also in order, which is inseparable from the tempering of the vice-mountain elder for many years of iron-blooded means.

Seeing Li Yuanying's arrival, everyone got up and bent down slightly, Li Yuanying waved his hand, his eyes fell on the Taishi chair in the center of the hall, Gu Yuanchang lay on his back, his eyes slightly closed, holding a goose feather fan in one hand, trembling and trembling, full of white hair and two white eyebrows gently shaking, the indescribable fairy wind bones, it is such a crane-haired and childish old man who is tired of life and wants to "commit suicide gracefully".

Li Yuanying walked into the hall and made a silent gesture at Zhou Meng, Zhou Meng held back what he was about to say, but he wondered in his heart, who is this person?

"Mountain Lord?" asked Li Yuanying out loud.

Gu Yuanchang opened his eyes slightly, glanced at Li Yuanying, and closed his eyes again: "Oh, Your Majesty is here." ”

There was no sign of getting up and saluting! I didn't take His Majesty the Emperor to heart at all! As for the identity of His Majesty Emperor Li Yuanying, Zhu Taifeng had to pay attention to it, calling himself His Majesty's honorific title and calling himself a grass people, but when he came to Gu Yuanchang's place, His Majesty's identity became a burden, and His Majesty the Emperor could be sure that if he was really more serious with the mountain elder and proposed the etiquette of saluting when he saw the emperor, Gu Yuanchang would be able to jump to his feet and scold.

Li Yuanying, as an atypical emperor, was not annoyed: "I heard that the mountain elder has not been in good health recently, so I came to visit. ”

"Your Majesty is too worried. Gu Yuanchang was listless, and said lazily: "By the way, Your Majesty, how do you think suicide can be considered elegant?"

Li Yuanying sighed in her heart, it's broken, this spirit is indeed a problem, it needs to be treated as soon as possible, and it is easy to die if it is late: "Hehe, the mountain elder said that he was laughing, he lived well, how could he think of committing suicide, this is not good." ”

"Hey, Your Majesty, I don't want to, I've been thinking about a few questions lately, and I don't know how to do it, and I think that death may be a way to find the truth. Gu Yuanchang said, the goose feather fan in his hand kept flickering, and he didn't forget to lift the wine jug under the Taishi chair to take a sip of wine.

Li Yuanying opened his mouth and asked, "What questions have the mountain elders thought about?"

"Who am I?Where am I from?Where am I going?" Gu Yuanchang slowly got up, his eyes deep.

Li Yuanying was a little stunned and scratched her head: "Is the mountain elder ready to commit suicide because he can't understand these questions?"

"It's not just these questions, but the hidden truth of life behind these questions. Your Majesty, a few decades ago, I was still a scholar, with self-cultivation and peace in the world as my own responsibility, hoping that the world will be the same, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, everyone will have clothes to wear, everyone will have books to read, everywhere is uneven, everywhere is food and clothing, so the Tang Dynasty was destroyed and divided, and the Wei Liang army was divided and confronted the Great River, I could disregard my personal safety, enter the big tent of the two armies, and fight against Chen Jingyan, the war of the Taiwan Domain, and let the cultivation become a wastestream, and I did not hesitate to do it, at that time I felt that I was right. Gu Yuanchang said slowly.

"Now, does Elder Shan think what he did at that time was wrong?" asked Li Yuanying.

"No, Your Majesty, even today, I think it's right, but then, the world is still divided, and I have a good reputation, and then, and then nothing, it's still business as usual. Gu Yuanchang's tone suddenly sank, with a hint of regret: "Your Majesty, I have been in Yuelu Academy for decades, guarding the snow-capped mountains, I thought it was the gate that brought the world to great freedom, but in fact it was a shackle, a cage, and meaningless. The Bible describes all kinds of things, I thought that was the way the world should be, in fact, it was a mirage of flowers in the fog, it was Zhuge Wei I laid a blindfold for me, when he put this book in front of me, I fell for his plan, as for the way of cultivation, I have also reached the highest realm, but this is not the ultimate way to change the world, hey, thinking for many years, I have to admit that there is no way out of this world, it will only go more and more to a low place, more and more lacking vitality. ”

"Your Majesty, take a step back, even at this moment, what can I do if I become an official? It's just to fight against the other three countries, to get a chance to dominate the world for the Great Wei Bo, and in the future, as a scholar, he will influence the hearts and minds of the people in the world, write a few sour articles, and then reconcile the relationship between people, redistribute various interests, and tinker with the land left by Wu Changhe, where there is a disaster and drought or flood, where to repair it, reduce taxes, exempt from forced labor, and reclaim wasteland。 ”

"Isn't this bad?" Li Yuanying asked suspiciously, this seems to be the ultimate ideal of a reader mentioned in the book.

"Your Majesty, it's still the same sentence, this can't be said bad, on the contrary, it's good, but it's not what I want. This world is very exciting, there are many interesting people and interesting things, but this world is not open to the outside world, it is not walking on a reasonable and healthy path, in other words, there should be a path that can fundamentally change the world, but this path is too deep to be hidden, no one has been able to find it. Gu Yuanchang looked a little excited: "Understanding the world, transforming the world, and reconstructing the world from the inside is what a scholar should do, which is much higher than self-cultivation and Qi Jiaping the world, and better than leaving a name in history and being famous through the ages." Your Majesty, I can't find that way, so death may be a good option. ”

Li Yuanying is not a good listener, she doesn't have the patience, and she doesn't have a strong logical and argumentative ability, especially for a "thinker" like Gu Yuanchang, the thinking often can't keep up, Gu Yuanchang has reached the top of the mountain, she is still wandering on the mountainside, her brows are furrowed into a pimple, and she can't find a way up the mountain, not to mention enlightening the mountain man, so that the mountain man can regain the confidence in life, on the contrary, she feels that the mountain man's choice of "elegant suicide" is a good choice, which should be supported and encouraged.

Gu Yuanchang looked at Li Yuanying, who didn't know what to do, and lay back on the Taishi chair from the beginning, and closed his eyes: "If Your Majesty has nothing else to do, go back first, if you hear about Gu Yuanchang's death one day, please trouble Your Majesty to prepare a coffin." ”

The mountain chief issued an expulsion order to His Majesty the Emperor.

"Oh. Li Yuanying nodded, got up and walked out in a daze, and at some point, Chen Luoyan was already standing outside the hall and walked in: "Master Shan, I can find you a way to transform the world." ”

Li Yuanying glared, and Chen Luoyan turned a blind eye.

Gu Yuanchang got up slowly: "Your Highness can find that way." ”

"Of course, but first of all, we must establish an overall framework system, if you have time, please prepare the banknotes, let's go into the house and talk about it. Chen Luoyan said.

"Taifeng, hurry up and prepare your pen and ink. Gu Yuanchang commanded, and stretched out his hand: "Your Highness, please!"

Chen Luoyan walked towards the inner room, Li Yuanying was also about to follow in, to see what you could say, Chen Luoyan smiled and said to Li Yuanying: "Stay outside, you shouldn't like to listen." ”

"Who is rare!" Li Yuanying rolled her eyes, and saw the two of them enter the inner room, and after a while, the sound of the two people talking came from inside, Li Yuanying was curious, lying on the door and eavesdropping, she couldn't hear very clearly, she looked inside by the door and window, and there were many people, and she didn't see anything else.

Unconsciously, the sun has gone west, Li Yuanying lay on the Taishi chair of the mountain elder, taking advantage of the warm afternoon sun to sleep, in her sleep she dreamed of the sea and blue sky, she swam in it like a fish, squeaked the door, and the fish she became fell heavily to the ground.

Li Yuanying woke up suddenly, Gu Yuanchang ran out of it with a radiant look, his hair and eyebrows fluttered because of excitement: "I see, I see, there is still such a thing to do, haha." ”

Chen Luoyan looked at Li Yuanying with a smile, spread his hands, and his face was triumphant.

"Virtue!" Li Yuanying was unhappy, and turned to ask Gu Yuanchang: "Mountain Elder, don't you commit suicide?"

"Your Majesty is talking nonsense, life is short, and it should be cherished. Gu Yuanchang opened his mouth and walked out of the hall quickly: "Taifeng, Zhou Meng, hurry up and prepare, we are going to start understanding the world." ”

Looking at Gu Yuanchang, who was eager to fly, Li Yuanying was puzzled and asked, "Chen Luoyan, what kind of confused soup did you pour into the mountain elder?"

"Nothing, I just said a word. Chen Luoyan said.

"What's the word, so powerful?" Li Yuanying was even more curious.

"Philosophy solves the most fundamental problem, the productive forces determine the relations of production, the relations of production can promote the development of the productive forces, if you want to transform the world, we should start from the productive forces, science and technology as the primary productive forces, and mathematics and physics are the most basic elements of science and technology. ”
