Chapter 112 Ambition is full of pride
Women will show off their clothes and jewelry when they are together, but what about men? Generally speaking, ordinary married men usually show off their women when they drink and chat together, which is actually not something to be despised, but the general social atmosphere has always been like this, otherwise in some more dynasties, the custom of giving women to each other is even more beautiful for a while.
So what do unmarried men talk about together? Those who are vulgar may say things together that cannot be put on the stage; Those who are well-informed will talk about some customs and customs, and seem to know more than others; If you are well-educated and read a lot, it will be even more simple and rude, quoting scriptures, reciting poems, and commenting on the current politics for a few sentences, so that you can appear to be well-informed and knowledgeable.
Naturally, the selection of these concubines selected by Emperor Kangtai for his daughter is all extraordinary, and the most unfortunate one is also the birth of a person, this son is lively, Lan Qiduo's carefully prepared program earlier has not yet started, and the people who are divided into several factions have begun to quote scriptures!
They are not talking about some meaningless topics such as "the chicken or the egg first", but they are discussing current affairs in a serious manner, and it is the issue of resettlement of the people's livelihood in Xiliang Mansion that is inappropriate when Xiahou Yi and the old fritters in the DPRK and China are not properly negotiated.
"Brother Liu's words are wrong, and the book "Guanzi" has a saying, "The beginning of the husband and the overlord is also people-oriented." This principle will make the country solid, and this chaos will lead to national danger'. Although Xiliang Mansion is a place where the people are fierce and stubborn, Xiliang Mansion is a part of the atmosphere anyway, and Daqi is a state of etiquette, and there is no reason to treat the surrounding small countries with a lot of responsibility, but to treat their own people strictly. ”
"Humph! What you said is easy, but I don't know that Your Majesty has already begun to govern Xiliang Mansion a few years ago. Xiliang Mansion is not only the people's customs, it is said that bandits are rampant, fights and brawls abound, and the common people have no intention of farming, people-oriented is good, but 'water can carry the boat can also overturn the boat', if they have more chaos after the support of their manpower, material and financial resourcesreads();. Who is responsible for this situation? ”
Whispering young people around the side. Looking at one and that, I feel that this one makes sense, and that one makes sense. I couldn't make up my mind for a while, but there were obviously three factions, one group supported the "people-oriented" young man, and the other group supported the one that "water can carry a boat and also capsize a boat". There is also a part that remains neutral.
Xiao Xia listened to the crowd for a while, and snorted coldly in his heart. He has obviously lived in Xiliang Mansion for longer than other places, and his feelings for Xiliang Mansion are obviously deeper than others, and the surname Liu obviously looks disgusted, and there is the fallacy of "if you have pus on your feet, you have to cut off your feet". Xiao Xia really didn't dare to agree, so it was even more unpleasant to look at the one surnamed Liu, but the hateful thing was that many of those old foxes in the court had the same idea as this surnamed Liu.
Bandits are rampant in Xiliang Mansion, and fights and brawls abound. Is it the people who want it? If you can live a peaceful life, who doesn't want to live a stable life? As far as he knew, the so-called bandits were rampant. It's just that some ordinary people are forced to be anxious and forced to do these things, many of the bandits are ordinary people who go up with hoes, these bastards who don't have a backache when they stand and talk.
"This Liu Gongzi, right?"
Xiao Xia politely trotted over and said to Liu Gongzi.
Liu Gongzi was feeling complacent about the words he had just refuted the opponent, and felt that everyone was paying attention to him, when suddenly he saw a person wearing the clothes of the princess's palace guards coming over, and everyone's eyes were on him, Liu Gongzi's self-confidence at this time was simply inflated to the extreme, and his head was raised high like a proud rooster.
said in a very arrogant tone: "My son's surname is indeed Liu, what do you have to do?" ”
"The sword hanging from Childe's eyelids is really of the highest quality! I wonder if you can temporarily let the villain report for you? Xiao Xia is not a fool who doesn't know anything, on the contrary, he has experienced ups and downs since he was a child, and he knows what to say to whom, and what he said to Liu Gongzi can be described as polite and tactful.
At this time, everyone gathered in groups of three or five, and when Xiao Xia came over, everyone had already paid attention to this side, and Liu Gongzi was happy to hear the first half of the sentence. He didn't know where he heard that the eldest princess of Yuanjia liked the heroic man, and spent a lot of money on the lunar calendar, such a sword that looked beautiful and not too bulky, in his opinion, this sword would be compared to the sword hanging from the waist of so many people present.
But now Xiahou Yi actually let himself give him the sword for safekeeping, why is this! He was polite to Xiao Xia just because Xiao Xia was the guard of the princess's mansion, but in fact, Xiao Xia was nothing in his eyes, so he was very displeased: "Why should this son's sword be handed over to you!" ”
Xiao Xia said in a businesslike tone at this time: "There has always been a rule in the mansion that you can't bring sharp weapons when you enter the mansion, I think the son should know this." ”
After Xiao Xia said this sentence officially, many young people who wore swords like Liu Gongzi quietly went to unload the sword on their waist and handed it to Chang Sui beside him, they dealt with the things around them one by one, and then looked back at Liu Gongzi like a good show, Liu Gongzi might as well be blamed for his own sword, his face was flushed, this is the princess's mansion, so many people are watching, he still knows where he is, he is very annoyed and angry to unload the sword and throw it to Xiao Xia, and then said viciously:" My son remembers you! ”
Xiao Xia took the sword very indifferently and handed it to the other two, and then said loudly to the young men: "If you still have daggers or other things in your hands, please hand them over, and when the banquet is over, the mansion will return it." We ask for your understanding if any inconvenience may be caused. ”
This is very reasonable, and some people are not convinced and secretly mutter: "Why are there so many things? Can we still do anything wrong with these daggers? ”
Someone who was better with him stabbed him with his hand and said, "Your Majesty is coming today, and there are many people, I guess I am afraid that something bad will happen, so you can stop reading ();!" ”
What he said was very vague, and he was not stupid to stand here, so he naturally understood what he meant by his unfulfilled meaning, although everyone was very dissatisfied with this compulsion in their hearts, but those who wore daggers and swords hanging from their waists as decorations still strangely handed over the things in their hands to the little servants in the princess's mansion.
Xiao Xia saw everyone's movements, and quickly raised the corners of his mouth, this is called Ma Wei, and it is above board, so they have nothing to say!
The two slippery guards who originally threw their errands to Xiao Xia saw that Xiao Xia had handled the matter by dividing it by two, and they were also a little embarrassed, they were not bad people, they were just playing tricks on Xiao Xia! Now that Xiao Xia has offended that Liu Gongzi, it is inevitable that the surname Liu will give him small shoes to wear if they meet in the future!
"Brother Xia, don't worry about that Liu Gongzi, his father took office outside and left with his family, because he wanted to study, so he stayed in Beijing, his uncle is the country's son of the priest Liu Lord, Liu is old-fashioned, Liu Gongzi does not dare to cause trouble."
Xiao Xia said with a very good eye: "Thank you two big brothers for reminding me, I don't know how long it will take for Your Majesty to come?" I see that these scholars are now talking more and more fiercely, and if no one stops them, it is easy to cause trouble. ”
The two guards glanced at each other, and they all felt that this kid's eyes were quite vicious! Because they have also heard what those noble children said, they have already gone to find a few horses to come over, compared to the presence of royal people, they will have some scruples, and the scene will not get out of control, as for what happens after His Majesty comes, heh, when the time comes, they must also have the courage to speak in front of His Majesty, and at that time, they will be respected as good men in front of His Majesty!
"Brother Xia's concerns, according to the calculations of our brothers, it is estimated that His Majesty has already been in the early dynasty at this time, and he should be coming to the princess's mansion!"
The two of them said to Xiao Xia with some uncertainty, after all, it was His Majesty's trip, and they didn't dare to be sloppy at all!
But I saw Xiao Xia and said: "In this case, the matter here is over, I won't stay here, I'm afraid that I haven't seen Your Majesty, and the province will lose your dignity in front of Your Majesty!" After speaking, Xiao Xia scratched her head honestly.
As soon as he said this, the two guards laughed, but he didn't say his words: "Xiao Xia, don't go far, if you have something, the Lord Commander will look for you." ”
"Well, I understand, thank you two big brothers for mentioning it, it's not worth it another day, please drink. What else do you command? ”
Xiao Xia was about to turn around and leave, as if he asked inadvertently, "Why didn't I see Sixth Brother?" ”
The guards were surprised, "Don't you know? Sixth Brother Qian was recently sent to the horse farm by the princess palace. The two looked at each other and saw doubts in each other's eyes, didn't they say that Xiao Xia was a relative of Lao Qian? Why don't you even know the basics of making money.
Xiao Xia saw the looks of the two and hurriedly remedied: "Oh, I mean that there is such a heavy thing in the house now, isn't the sixth brother not doing his part?" ”
"It's not clear!"
They saw that Xiao Xia, who was originally an honest teacher, seemed to be very unhappy for a moment, and his aura was so strong that the two of them looked sideways, and it seemed that he was dazzled for a moment, and he returned to his original appearance.
"That's right! The two eldest brothers are busy first, and if there is something, they will call me, I don't dare to stay in front of the door, in case I really bump into Your Majesty, it is not a trivial matter to lose my honor in front of the emperor. ”
After he finished speaking, he hugged his fists and walked towards the second gate, the two guards only thought that he was rustic and stupid, but they didn't know that this Xiao Xia, who was earthy and stupid in their eyes, turned around and looked expressionless. (To be continued.) )
