Chapter 22 White Jade
Studying in the academy can be said to be boring, Yun Zheng's books and schoolwork are always very different from others, and others are reading them.
One requires students to be aggressive in every way, and the other requires students to take advantage of the situation.
"You have gone astray, the Taoist said: "Those who do nothing, silent, indifferent, unable to lead, unable to push, how different is this from grass and trees?" Back then, Shennong encountered seventy poisons in one day when he tasted a hundred herbs, and Yao actively engaged in political management and social education to educate the people. From the easternmost country of Black Tooth to the northernmost Youzhou, there is no place where he has not left his footprints. The three seedlings are in the three dangers, the flow is in Youzhou, and the whale is in Yushan"; Shun "opened the tree valley, conquered the three seedlings in the south, and died in the sky"; Yu......
These predecessors and sages, which one of them has not made great achievements, and which one of them has not worked hard for the welfare of all the people, and they cannot be attracted to it, and they are not pushed to this point How different it is from a stone, and they have not heard that there are people who can make meritorious deeds without moving, not hearing, not listening, and not speaking.
Thou shalt be wise and different from ordinary people, and thy heart shall be broader than that of ordinary people, so thou shalt take the thorny road and cross the stormy river......"
Yun Zheng came out of Mr. Zhang Yuan's house dizzily, looking at the sun above his head, he didn't know how to comment on Mr.'s words, and told himself reasonably, at this time, hiding as a stone is the best way, but Mr. hopes that he will live boldly and brightly, God, this is Wang Anshi's talent, and it has nothing to do with him.
In my last life, I wanted to be a hero, but I ended up being a teacher, and now I want to be a turtle with a shrunken head, but Mr.'s expectations are heroes, and there is always a gap between reality and ideals.
I can go home today, so Yun Zheng is a good dirty laundry early, ready to take it home, a month's time, has accumulated a lot, and when Yun Zheng put the dirty clothes on the carriage that Han Niu rushed to, Yun Zheng found that there is really not much difference between the students of ancient times and later generations.
Cui Da promised to bring Yun Zheng the best food. Zhao Zixing promised that this time he must bring the family's Yu Legg Chun into the academy, and his time in the academy will not be too long, so he must always seek some benefits for everyone.
Passing through Chengdu City, the peaches in Zhaojiadi are almost ripe, and some of the trees under the trees are still green, but some of the treetops have been dyed with a layer of red halo under the sun.
Yun Zheng always felt very kind to this peach forest, but this time he didn't ask Hanniu to stop the carriage, but ran directly home. I haven't seen my family for a while. The heart is empty.
In the distance, farmers are already harvesting rice in the rice fields. The road is full of ox carts carrying rice, and there is already a large open space on the dry plateau that has been very smooth by large stone mills, and the end point of the ox cart is there.
Officials in soap coats constantly patrol the fields, sometimes enclosing a paddy field with red rope. Individual harvesting is used to estimate this year's harvest.
Yun Zheng's carriage still stopped, and an old man with a cane stood on the side of the road, shouting loudly, "Yun Daguan." “
Seeing the old man, Yun Zheng wanted to run away, the last time he was used by Hanlin to use the descendants of the Meng family, he almost buried himself, and now this old thing is still here?
Yun Zheng jumped down from the carriage, arched his hand and said to the old man: "Just let me go, in order to keep it secret for you, the kid was almost ruined by someone's family." Now that you've just taken a breath, don't come to the scourge, the boy doesn't know you. ”
The old man stroked his beard and laughed and said, "This is under Lang Lang Qiankun, why does the old man need you to keep it secret?" Only traitors need to do secret things, and the old man is an old peasant. Spring planting and autumn harvest, busy with the four seasons, what's unseemly?
But you are a good doll after all, give this thing to you, the old man has not understood it for decades, I heard that you are a smart person, maybe you can solve it. ”
The old man stuffed a burlap bag into Yun Zheng's hand, and then laughed and continued to crunch his back into a path where there were endless rice fields.
Seeing the old man walk into the rice field and talk to the villagers in the field and ignore himself, Yun Zheng jumped back into the carriage and went home, the cloth bag given by the old man was very light, not like any valuables, after opening it, he found that there was only one sheepskin inside, which was to uncover the sheepskin layer by layer according to the texture, the top layer of sheepskin is milky white, and can even pass through the light, many rich people's windows are sealed with it in winter, which is both light and warm.
This kind of thing is not unusual, but the words written on it make Yun Zheng have a headache, "Jinfu Mountain, there are so many stones in one fist, and it is very vast." Plants and trees are born, birds and beasts live in them, and treasures are prosperous. ”
This is an explanation of the treasure in it, it is very ordinary and has no meaning, but this sheepskin is covered with Meng Chang's imperial seal, which is very different.
Is this a treasure map? Yun Zheng lifted the curtain and looked back at the old man standing in the field again, and found that the old man was also looking at him, as if he was laughing.
Hanlin didn't kill them, he just asked them to hand over all the hidden treasures, those silver judgments are examples, the old guy got the right to live under the sun after handing over the treasures, it can't be said that he suffered a loss or took advantage, but Yun Ye thinks that the old guy has taken advantage of it, at least no one will always think about killing them all in the future.
It is said that if you give your troubles to others, you will have no troubles, and the old guy has won the samadhi, and no matter whether this picture is true or false, as long as he is sent out, he and his people can be the obedient people of the Great Song Dynasty with all their hearts, and there is nothing bad about self-cultivation and self-eating.
When I returned home, I was warmly welcomed by the whole family, I didn't know what to say when I was smiling, the simple girl, picked up the dirty clothes that Yun Zheng brought back and ran away, this was her most simple way to welcome.
Lu Qingqing was very reserved, looking at Lao Liao, Monkey, Cang'er with a smile on the side, they were talking to their husbands, and they pulled Yun Er to prevent him from passing, in her opinion, this time is also the most important moment of communication between the head of the family and the servants, and only by exchanging hearts for hearts can they gain the respect of others, which is what Yun Zheng, the head of the family, must do.
Lan Lan looked at this scene enviously, and estimated that her heart was very sour, so she grabbed a simple little girl and whispered in her ear, this is the personal maid Lu Qingqing found for her.
Lu Qingqing was very unaccustomed to Yun Zheng saying that his wife had worked hard in front of everyone, and pushed Yun Er to the front without showing a look, she was very worried that her husband would hug her in front of everyone, and he had never changed this bad habit.
Compared with the cold water in the academy, the bath bucket at home is so comfortable that people have nothing to say, Yun Zheng hummed a song and took a bath, and Lu Qingqing was rummaging through her husband's clothes and preparing to take them to wash off the bacon.
A cloth bag fell down, Lu Qingqing picked it up and looked at Yun Zheng, who was very involved in taking a bath, and opened it to look at it. A small face immediately turned pale, looked out vigilantly, and closed the doors and windows tightly with a bang.
"How do you close the window? Open it, the room is damp and uncomfortable. ”
Lu Qingqing tried hard to restrain himself from distorting his voice, and asked in a low voice, "Husband, where did this "white jade map" come from?" This matter is big, don't expire the concubine! ”
Yun Zheng looked back at the sheepskin diagram in Lu Qingqing's hand, and said indifferently: "Old man Meng gave it, just gave it to me, no more than a pillar of incense, what's wrong?" If there is trouble, I will return it to Old Man Meng, our family is not rare and has any treasures, and the money I earn is the most comfortable to spend. ”
Lu Qingqing pressed Yun Zheng's mouth and said anxiously: "The concubine is a Shu person who is more familiar with Meng Chang, and the ancestor even saw him when he was a child, so Meng Chang was still clear in the early years of his reign, and he worked hard, dressed plainly, built water conservancy, paid attention to agriculture and mulberry, and implemented the policy of "resting with the people". Jiazun is called "Ruiwen Yingwu Ren Shengming Xiao Emperor".
However, in the later part of his reign, he indulged in wine, did not think about national politics, lived a debaucherous life, and was extravagant, and even the night pot was made of treasures, called the Seven Treasures Drowning Vessel.
After the fall of the Shu Kingdom, the guards presented the Seven Treasures to Song Zu, and Song Zu sighed when he saw it: "The Seven Treasures should be pretended, but what is used to store food?" Extravagance is so far, and it will never die! "Order the guards to smash it to pieces.
This is just one thing, Meng Chang is most afraid of heat, every time he encounters hot weather, he feels uncertain, and it is difficult to sleep, so he built a crystal palace on the Moke Pond as a place to escape the heat. Among them, the three halls are all made of nanmu as the pillar, the agarwood is the building, the coral inlay window, the jasper is the household, the walls around it, without bricks and stones, the open glass inlay of several zhang is used, the inside and outside are clear, there is no barrier, and then the bright moon pearl in the harem is moved, and the night is also bright and transparent. The surroundings are verdant and fluttering, and the red bridge is faint. The extravagance has reached such a point that it can be called unprecedented, and the ancestor is still fascinated when he talks about those halls now.
The things he left behind were never simple, you should know the old things about his peach talisman, "The New Year is Yuqing, the festival is called Changchun, this peach talisman is still hanging on the Song Court."
When almost every Shu person knew the story of the flower stamen diagram and the white jade diagram, the flower stamen diagram fell into the hands of the Great Song Emperor, and there was a poem on it, "The ice muscle and jade bones are clear and sweatless, and the wind in the water hall is dark and fragrant." The bright moon between the curtains peeps at people, and the pillow hairpin is chaotic. Get up Qionghu is silent, and when I see Shuxing crossing the river. When will the west wind come, I am afraid that the passing years will change secretly. ”
The wise men of the Song court peeked into the mysteries and unearthed countless treasures from the Nanfu River, also known as the Jinjiang River, which is said to have filled three ships. And the white jade diagram is said to hide the armor and weapons of the restored country.
These two pictures were drawn by Meng Chang himself when he saw that the general trend was gone, and you still say that this thing is insignificant? ”
"Burn it!" This was Yun Zheng's first reaction.
