In fact, Mother Jia knew very well in her heart what it meant to be recognized by the Yan family. It was because she knew the status of the Yan family that Mother Jia didn't dare to make a mistake.

If Jia Baoyu can really be recognized by others, it will naturally be a good thing, but Jia's mother doesn't think that Jia Baoyu, who has not finished reading the four books and has not gone to school seriously, will be recognized by the Yan family. What's more, Jia Baoyu's piece of jade determined that it was impossible for him to get the title of prodigy early, which was Jia Baoyu's amulet.

As for Jia Zheng, his previous appearance alone was enough to make the world shake their heads at him. Jia Mu never thought about the possibility of letting Jia Zheng escort Jia Jiu out.

Mother Jia didn't want to humiliate herself, even if this son ran to him specifically.

Jia Mu also specially instructed Jia Jiu: "The Yan family is a thousand-year-old family, and they are the descendants of Yan Hui, a disciple of Sage Kong, and they are particularly particular about some things. Therefore, this high-waisted skirt or a full-breasted skirt is not suitable for going to Yan's house, even the gown is not formal enough, let the sewing room cut two deep clothes for each of you, not too frivolous or too cautious, like the five-yuan color or something as little as possible, tender yellow, light green, light purple these colors make it, the color can not be too complicated, even the embroidery is as little as possible. ......" tossed for two whole days to finalize Jia Jiu's clothes and jewelry.

Mother Jia herself also knows that with people like the Yan family, whether it is expensive things or antique gadgets, people don't look down on them at all, and people don't pay attention to the same jewelry worth thousands of gold, because there are countless people who hold thousands of gold and beg for their words. Money is nothing at all. But if you talk about antiques. Maybe the bowls for eating at home are all handed down from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Such people, if you want to compare their wealth and family background, it is better to wash and sleep early - it is faster to dream.

Jia Jiu's move to Yan's house ended up making a bigger disturbance than the previous two times when he went to the princess's mansion to participate in the hairpin party. Even Jia's mother herself couldn't bear the pain and took a set of high-quality jasper jewelry from her collection and gave Jia Jiu clothes to finish.

Looking at Jia Jiu like this, as well as Jia Qian and Jia Qing sisters who followed the light, Xue Baochai, Shi Xiangyun and Tanchun said that they didn't envy it, it was fake.

Shi Xiangyun is envious of Jia Jiu's new clothes, one after another, and even the matching jewelry is not the same. She is obviously also the daughter of the princess's mansion, but she can't even compare to a fraction of this second sister, and if she doesn't lose it, it's fake. But what can be done? His parents are gone. My uncle and aunt didn't know why they couldn't get close. What I have is just a little example of what a girl from the Shi family should have, where can I compare with this cousin?

Tanchun is envious of Jia Jiu's status and scenery. Tanchun is a full two years younger than Jia Jiu, because he was born in March. It's only five years old this year. Before Jia Yuanchun entered the palace, he didn't remember anything, and he didn't know how his family treated Jia Yuanchun. But looking at Jia Jiu's scenery today, a deep imprint was deeply imprinted in his heart. He also knows. Because this second sister is now a stepdaughter. This is such decent, but she is a maidservant daughter, unless she is recognized by her mother-in-law, otherwise, it is impossible for her to appear in front of people openly in her life, let alone any scenery.

As for Xue Baochai, he was envious of Jia Jiu's birth and good luck. Although he was reincarnated in this general's mansion, although at the beginning, everyone despised this second girl and did not treat him as a serious master. But now, who dares not to greet this master with a smile? Not only was it recognized by his father and brother. It was also recognized by the family, isn't that luck? The descendants of the clan of ordinary people may not have this majesty. Now that Daomen and Confucianism have recognized him, it can be said that the status of this second girl in the Jia family has become unshakable, and even the outside has recognized him.

Speaking of envy, the three of them are envious, and when they say jealousy, their hearts are also jealous, but it is impossible to ask them to do something. Not to mention whether they have the ability or not to have this idea now, even if they have this ability, Jia Mu will not allow them to do it.

This is the same as Jia Mu's idea of dispelling Jia Zheng. Because the current Jia family must also rely on Jia Jiu to go outside to socialize and build relationships, and contribute to the influence of the Jia family.

When Yan Wei came to pick up Jia Jiu, he saw Jia Jiu, Jia Qian, and Jia Qing standing neatly dressed at the door of Rongxi Hall waiting.

Yan Wei couldn't help but tease him: "Senior sister, don't you feel tired with so much jewelry?" ”

Jia Jiu hurriedly said, "Why aren't you tired?" My neck is sore. Yesterday, I tossed a whole night, washed and steamed, tossed until the sky was twilight, and then it was neatly cared for. If you want me to say, this tired silk and pearl phoenix should have been called by the big girls, where can I, a little hairy child, use such jewelry. But our old lady said that it was the first time to go to your house, and she accidentally couldn't focus on it. If you want me to say, put all your hair down and tuck it behind your head, a jasper hairpin is more suitable than jewelry at this end. But our old lady said that the cloak was not respectful enough. ”

In Jia Jiu's opinion, which woman in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period didn't comb her hair back and play with a rope or something? It is a noble woman, and most of them are also combed in a short bun. Unless it's the bride or the women in the harem, who combs the bun.

Jia Mu's taste is indeed good, but this taste is limited to the times. Perhaps in the elite circle of Daqi, Jia Mu's aesthetics are in line with most occasions, and even a little novelty can be seen. But in a family like the Yan family, today's popular aesthetics may not necessarily apply. Especially at the moment when Mother Jia was dazzled by the aura of the Yan family, the final decision she made was really hard to say.

Yan Wei pointed to the clothes on Jia Jiu's body and said, "You also changed this dress yourself, right?" It doesn't go well with the jewelry on your head. ”

The set on Jia Jiu's body is the one he made before, a silk bright silver dark coat, a light sea blue lining, a cinnabar-colored middle coat, plus accessories and other things, although it is still rich and magnificent, but it is much better than the gold on his head.

Jia Jiu said: "Not really. If it weren't for the fact that our old lady was talking to the second uncle right now, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find the space to change that dress. The big red and green ones are beautiful. But it's not my thing. ”

Yan Wei understands in seconds. It is estimated that Jia Zheng wanted to go along, so he was called by Jia's mother to speak. Thinking about it this way, Yan Wei felt a little better about Jia's mother.

Jia Jiu stood there with his neck stiff for a long time. thought that Yan Wei would help him, but when he saw that Yan Wei just said that, he couldn't help but speak: "Senior brother, I have a lot of weight on my head, can you help me?" ”

There is an unwritten rule that a girl's hair can't be touched casually, and Jia Jiu can't care about it at this moment. In front of him is his senior brother, the prince of heaven and earth. In the era when the master could hold up half of his father, the senior brother and the elder brother were also about the same, and he was also young. For the kind of stupid thing like unruly rules, tired of his neck, and hindering the eyes of others, Jia Jiu won't do it.

Jia Jiu dared to say this, but he was just taking advantage of his age. If only in another two years. He really didn't dare to ask Yan Wei like this. After all, now he still dares to fool the past with his ignorance of the rules, and if he does it again in the next year, it will be to smear the face of Daomen.

Hearing Jia Jiu's words, Yan Wei was really stunned. He glanced at Jia Jiu deeply, and made sure that this little junior sister really didn't understand the meaning of Wanqingsi, so he said, "Since you also feel heavy on your head, then come here." ”

Jia Jiu immediately walked over quickly. The two girls behind him immediately followed with the dresser. If he hadn't dressed so formally, it is estimated that Jia Jiu would have been eager to trot all the way.

Yan Wei looked for it in the dresser. turned out the set of red coral hairpins that the queen gave to Jia Jiu that day, took one out, combed Jia Jiu's hair neatly, tied it well, put the hairpin on the hairpin, and took a few small hairpins and hairpins to fix it, and it was over.

The red coral echoes Jia Jiu's middle coat, the gold on the hairpin echoes the silver dark coat, and the citrine pendant, although the hairstyle is simple, it is not dignified. What's more, without so much jewelry, Jia Jiu felt that his head was lighter, his shoulders were much more relaxed, and his neck was not so painful, which made him really relieved.

As for Yan Wei, he was also slightly embarrassed. This is the first time that a girl has made such a request to him, which can't help but make his mind a little bit shaky, and when he sees Jia Jiu's black hair, even his heart can't help but be a little more charming.

I have to say that Jia Jiu's understanding of the [Female Skill Body] is still too little. Although it looks like a human being, in Killing Shattered Island, people are the fruit of trees, although it looks no different from ordinary people, but in fact, the bloodline of Killing Shattered Island carries a considerable part of the attributes similar to trees. In other words, as one of the bloodlines of the Royal Clan of Killing Shattered Island, the Female Gong Body of the Divine Life, which is biased towards the healing attribute, is a little closer to the trees on the very large Cheng Dù. Even though Jia Jiu had only just begun to fuse the [Female Skill Body] for a short time, there were already various signs in many aspects.

For example, trees can thrive when there is water and sunlight, and trees can be propagated by guò cuttings, for example.

Although Jia Jiu has not yet reached that point, one thing is obvious, his hair is much thicker than the average person, and it grows quickly. Other people's girls don't know how much money they have to spend on hair maintenance every year, but for him, just use water and soap horn is enough. Other people's girls are already in good health if their hair grows one foot in three months, but Jia Jiu can grow to nearly three feet in three months. The most direct result was that every time Jia Jiu came out of the [Advanced Cultivation Ground], he had to cut off his hair. Otherwise, his hair would definitely drag to the ground.

This also caused another result, that is, Jia Jiu's hair is particularly thick.

Yan Wei also opened Jia Jiu's hair only to find that Jia Jiu had a lot of hair, so much that Yan Jiu's palm could not hold it all in one hand. In this era, although every woman wears a beautiful and delicate bun, most of the hair in those buns is actually empty. Especially when combing the high bun and cloud sideburns, the combing lady needs to deliberately make the inside of the hair hairy, so that she can afford the delicate hairstyle. But this is not useful for Jia Jiu. Because Jia Jiu's hair was so much, that he had to hide all the excess hair through his hairstyle.

The cloud-like hair hung down like a waterfall, and the slightly cold hair left Yan Wei with the touch of fine silk, even Yan Wei couldn't help but fantasize about what this junior sister would look like when she grew up in the future.

After taking care of Jia Jiu's hair, Yan Wei hurriedly lowered his hand. He covered his palms with wide sleeves, and he also covered up his discomfort.

On the other side, Jia Qian and Jia Qing were also cleaned up. Thanks to Mother Jia, she didn't pay much attention to them, so they only had to change out of the outermost deep clothes. Then remove the excess jewelry and comb the hair slightly with a grate, you don't need to comb your hair again like Jia Jiu.

The three of them climbed into the Cui Hu Huagai car with their personal girls, and the girls in the back also got into the two cars behind, and the group staggered out of the general's mansion through the side door. When the side door slowly closed, I saw Jia Zheng running over panting.

After Jia's mother's teaching, Jia Zheng finally dispelled the idea of going to Yan's house with Jia Jiu. But he couldn't help but want to talk to Yan Wei and get a chance for his comeback. As long as he has talked to the son of the Yan family, he has this idle operation. Let the world think that the Yan family also recognizes him. It's a pity that he came out too late, Yan Wei had already mounted his horse and followed Jia Jiu's car out of the mansion.

Jia Qian and Jia Qing were very curious about why a son of a family like Yan Wei would comb a girl's hairstyle. It's just that Yan Wei is out of the car window, and it's hard to speak. They didn't find out until they arrived at the Yan family. It turns out that most of the girls in the Yan family comb their hair like this, and the difference is only the difference in clothes and accessories.

Yan Wei's cousin Yan Mei saw her cousin coming over with a girl with the same hairstyle as herself, and thought it was her own sister, but when she noticed the other party's clothes, she knew that it was an outsider.

Because today, the girls of the Yan family, who are the main family, wear printed materials, and they are mainly green and cyan, and no one wears silk materials. Even most of the elders in the family don't use this material. In the words of the ancestor of the Yan family. It's just that this kind of material is too labor-intensive, and there is so much time to do this. It's better to have more than one person to farm, and you can also get two more stones of grain and raise a few more people.

Yan Wei handed over Jia Jiu and the three of them to his cousin and left, and as soon as he left, Yan Mei said with a smile: "I am ranked eleven, and my sister calls me eleventh sister." Who combed your sister's hair? Nowadays, there are not many combing ladies who can comb their hair in this style. ”

Jia Jiu said: "Senior brother helped me comb it." I wore a lot of jewelry before, it was heavy, my neck hurt, my shoulders hurt, and it was easy to see my brother, so I asked him for help. ”

Yan Mei smiled and said, "It turned out to be my cousin." As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Jia Jiu again.

Although they are only cousins, Yan Mei also knows that there are only two kinds of women's hairstyles that Yan Wei can comb, one is the hairstyle of a married woman, and the other is the hairstyle that their sisters comb. The reason why Yan Wei will do it is only because he watched too much with his mother and sisters when he was a child. At this point, the men of the Yan family are probably like this.

Yan Mei would ask Jia Jiu questions about hairstyles, but in fact, a large part of the reason was because of Yan Wei. Because Yan Wei's marriage has become a heart disease of the Yan family.

Whose son-in-law has not yet married at the age of twenty-six or seventeen? is to follow the ancient rites and then discuss marriage, and at his age, he should hold a child anyway. The problem is that Yan Wei has no plans to get married at all. It's also a shame that he is the youngest of their brothers and sisters, and his marriage with his cousins is fine, otherwise, everyone will force him to get married.

Now, everyone saw that it was useless to knock on the side, the eldest princess of Jiashan had secretly chased him for so long, and there was no movement at all, and the people of the Yan family had to make other plans.

Their greatest hope now is the Daomen.

The Yan family also knew some things about the Daozi in the Daomen, and after Yan Wei became one of the candidates for many silver-clothed Daozi, they also specially inquired about the Jinyi Daozi and the Yinyi Daozi. When they heard that the gold-clothed Daozi and the silver-clothed Daozi were fellow practitioners, and they might even become Taoist couples, their hearts were even more eager.

Confucian high-ranking people naturally know very well the friendship between classmates, and the friendship between fellow practitioners will only be deeper than the friendship between classmates. If Jia Jiu chooses Yan Wei to become his initiate, it is not impossible for the two of them to go further on this foundation.

No one hopes more than the Yan family that Yan Wei can settle down early. In this world, it is a very common thing for old husbands and young wives to be married, and it is not uncommon for a white-haired old man with a red face and a pear flower pressed begonia. It's that Jia Jiu is still young, as long as he can make Yan Wei nod and get married, for the Yan family, marrying the daughter of the famous Jia family is not a big deal. Because Yan Wei's father is good, and Yan Wei himself is also good. None of them are the eldest sons, and they have nothing to do with the affairs of the sect, and Jia Jiu's house is not too bad for Jia Jiu himself.

Seeing Yan Mei secretly looking at herself. Jia Jiu couldn't help but ask, "Sister Yan, but is there anything wrong with me?" ”

Yan Mei hurriedly came back to her senses and said, "The hairpin on my sister's head is so special." ”

Jia Jiu smiled and said, "It was rewarded by the queen when she entered the palace last time, but today it is the first time to wear it." ”

Speaking of the queen, Yan Mei remembered something and just wanted to ask again. But I saw Liang Lihua, dressed in golden red, coming from the corner, still holding the big golden umbrella in her hand.

Well, thankfully, this is just an adopted daughter. You don't have to participate in the draft, otherwise, I'm afraid that you will bring this thing with you in the palace.

Thinking so in his heart, Jia Jiu followed Yan Mei to greet him: "Sister Liang." ”

Liang Lihua raised her eyebrows. said: "Master Yan really invited you." Come with me. Eleven girls. I'll take this girl first. ”

Yan Mei bent down: "Yes." Aunt Liang, please. He turned around and left without asking.

As soon as he left, Jia Jiu stepped forward quickly, walked to Liang Lihua's side, and said, "Sister Liang, are you very familiar with Sister Yan?" ”

Liang Lihua said: "Girl, seniority." ”

Jia Jiu pursed his lips and said, "What's the matter, everyone will hand it over." Sister Liang. You haven't answered my question yet. ”

Liang Lihua frowned slightly, and said, "When Eleven Niang's father was studying. He was my father's protégé. ”

Jia Jiu said: "Biological father? ”

Liang Lihua glanced at him, and Jia Jiu understood in seconds.

Very good, it is indeed a biological father, but since Liang Lihua has a biological father, why did she recognize her father-in-law and become the adopted daughter of the Liang family, this question is not something that he, a little girl, can talk about.

followed Liang Lihua through the rooms, around the corners, only to find that these houses are all designed by the Han and Tang Dynasties, that is to say, the houses are all elevated, the floor is paved in the house, and the earth dragon is under the house. Because the Winter Clothes Festival has passed, and it is the hairpin flower festival, several important houses have been opened, and the earth dragon has also burned, even if you don't enter the house, you just walk under the eaves, and you can clearly feel the heat wave in the house.

Jia Jiu really felt that he was really wearing a little too much, and he was very glad that he didn't wear makeup or grease and powder, otherwise, this fat powder would be washed down by sweat, drawing furrows on his face, and he wouldn't have to see anyone.

Seeing that he was coming all the way, what he saw was not the children of the Yan family, but the maids and servants of the Yan family, Jia Jiu couldn't help but be a little strange: "Sister Liang, where are we going?" ”

Liang Lihua said: "See Master Yan." ”

"May I ask who Master Yan is?"

Liang Lihua glanced at Jia Jiu and said, "Why hasn't anyone told you?" Master Yan is the sibling brother of your Senior Brother Yan's great-grandfather, and he is also a master of Confucianism. Although he retired many years ago to specialize in learning, Master Yan's attainments in the Analects have become more and more profound. I have already informed Master Yan of your big plan, and Master Yan wants to see you in person. ”

After walking a few steps, Liang Lihua felt that the voice around her was wrong, and when she looked back, she saw that Jia Jiu was already stupid. If Liang Lihua knew the comics, Liang Lihua would definitely be able to vividly depict that Jia Jiu at this moment has been petrified, just waiting for pieces to shatter and go away with the wind.

Jia Qian and Jia Qing, who were walking behind, also heard Liang Lihua and Jia Jiu's answers, compared to Jia Qian's surprise, Jia Qing's mood was much simpler. Even if he has been locked up in the back garden, even if there are not many opportunities to go out, Jia Qing still knows the status and influence of the Yan family.

To put it simply, if you can get the approval of this Yan master, don't say anything rich and prosperous, at least a good woman is indispensable.

For the sake of his future, Jia Qing instantly made up his mind in his heart, that is, to express himself well.

Jia Qing didn't know how old Master Yan was in Liang Lihua's mouth, he instinctively felt that with his clumsy acting skills, he would definitely not be able to hide from this Master Yan's eyes. Therefore, it is necessary to tell the truth, but it is necessary to pay attention to skills and properly use the Spring and Autumn brushwork.

Jia Qian asked, "Aunt Liang, how many people is Master Yan going to see today?" ”

Liang Lihua said: "How many people do you see?" Naturally, there were four of us. ”

Following Jia Jiu, Jia Qian was also stupid. He seemed to be a little incomprehensible, the Yan Shi in Liang Lihua's mouth seemed to be a very great old man in his impression, even the emperor and the old man who had to be treated with courtesy, this old man still had a very high status among Confucianism. Does such an old man need special advice for a little girl like himself?

Looking at the three stone statues in front of her, Liang Lihua had a headache.

The little girl who has never seen the big world is this trouble. This will be the case when I hear Master Yan. Wait a minute, when they see Master Yan's true appearance, will they faint, Liang Lihua doesn't dare to guarantee in her heart.

So. The little girl is really troublesome.

Liang Lihua tapped her palm with an umbrella, and motioned to Jia Jiu, Jia Qian, and Jia Qing's upbringing grandmother, who were walking behind, to pull their girls away.

He didn't want to be late.

As the younger brother of the previous head of the Yan family, Yan Yu sat under the window and read, and read the "Analects" in the "Four Books", which recorded the words and deeds of the famous ancient Chinese thinker Confucius and his disciples, and was a must-read book for Confucian students. You can see the charm of this book. It's just that if you read him at different ages, you will have different feelings.

When Jia Jiu and Jia Qian and Jia Qing sisters were pushed into this room, they saw a white-haired and white-clothed man with his back to them. Sitting under the window and reading, I shook my head and read with relish.

Jia Jiu saw Liang Lihua kneeling and sitting down, and he also knelt down at a distance of half a step behind Liang Lihua's side, as for Jia Qian and Jia Qing. Naturally, kneel behind them. Jia Qian is still okay. Jia Qing couldn't help frowning.

Speaking of which, his most critical of ancient life is this kneeling. The Jia family doesn't have to kneel and sit, and their hometown can't afford to build such a big Han and Tang Dynasty-style house, and they think that everyone sits on chairs and stools. When he came out to socialize, he realized that the people outside called kneeling and sitting upright, and more formal occasions were kneeling, so he couldn't stand it. This is not something that can be familiarized with just practice.

Sit there on your knees and watch the time pass little by little. Listening to the unique tone of Confucianism echoing in the room, Jia Qing couldn't help but want to sleep.

Ancient texts or something. For most of the women who cross the border, it is too cruel. It is almost impossible to understand exactly what it means without professional study. Not to mention, the "Analects" still uses the unique Yayin and Yayan of the Qin and Han dynasties, which is not at all understandable to him, a halfway monk.

Don't talk about Jia Qing, even Jia Jiu is also devastated, and there is only "Taibo, which can be described as the most virtuous." Third, let the world let it, and the people have nothing to gain and be praised. And "the people may let it be done, but they cannot know it." The two sentences were echoing, just like Sun Wukong who heard the spell of tightening, it felt really good, so good that he didn't dare to describe it at all.

Among the four, Jia Qian sat there in silence and didn't know if he listened or not, only Liang Lihua seemed to be shaking slightly, and a smile appeared on her face, obviously the most comfortable one.

The power of Confucianism is really not understandable to mortals.

After a long time, Jia Jiu heard someone say above his head: "Can you get something?" ”

Jia Jiu shook his head, only to find that the recitation had stopped, but there was still a voice hovering in his head, and the feeling was really indescribable.

Attacked by the brainwashing demonic voice, Jia Jiu thought that the other party was asking someone else at first, but after looking around for a while, and hearing the other party's second question, he was sure that the person in front of him was asking himself.

Jia Jiu raised his dizzy head, only to see a crane-haired and childish person standing in front of him, unable to distinguish his age. Full of white hair and silver frost Shengxue is the best description of the other party, but the other party's face is really watery, tender and tender, saying that the other party is in his twenties, but because of an accident and the white head is the same as some people believe it.

If Liang Lihua hadn't told him in advance that this person in front of her was Master Yan and the uncle of Yan Xun's own grandfather, I was afraid that Jia Qing would shout and deceive people. However, now he has obviously been hit hard, and he can't even speak.

It was Jia Jiu, who quickly reacted under the other party's eyes, and said, "I'm sorry, after you read so many changes, I heard two sentences clearly." ”

"Oh? Which two sentences? ”

Jia Jiu said: "'Taber, it can be said that it is also the most virtuous. Third, let the world let it, and the people have nothing to gain and be praised. And 'the people may make it to themselves, but they cannot know it.' ’”

I saw that the other party nodded and said, "If you can hear these two sentences clearly, you can be regarded as having understanding." How is it? What's in earnings? ”

Jia Jiu's face turned red and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't read the Analects, I don't understand these two sentences." Can you tell me what the first sentence said? ”

Yan Yu glanced at Jia Jiu deeply, sat down cross-legged in front of Jia Jiu, and said, "Legend has it that the ancient father-in-law knew that Ji Chang, the son of the third son, Ji Li, had holy virtues. wanted to pass on the throne to Ji Li, and after Taber found out, he and his second brother Zhongyong took refuge in Wu. Gu Gong's father died, and Taber did not come back to mourn. Later, he cut off his tattoo, said that he would not return for life, and gave up the throne to Ji Li, who passed it to Ji Chang, that is, King Wen of Zhou. During the reign of King Wu, he destroyed Yin Shang and unified the world. This historical event was in the opinion of Confucius. It is worth talking about, and Taber in the world is the most morally noble person. Only when the world cedes to the sages and sages can it be governed. Those who gave up the throne showed noble character, and the common people praised them incomparably. Therefore, the saint would praise Taber and say, 'Taber can be said to be the most virtuous man, and several times he has given up the throne to Ji Li, but the common people have not found the right words to praise him. ’”

Jia Jiu was stunned. "Do you mean that?" If our old lady speaks, should my father also give up his ancestral inheritance to the second uncle's family? ”

Jia Jiuke is very sensitive to this matter.

The other party laughed instead: "Taber gives way, and the prerequisite is that Ji Chang has holy virtue......"

Jia Jiu said: "Isn't it the same? Everyone said that my cousin was a man with a background and would definitely glorify his ancestors in the future. It's also a shame that our old lady doesn't know this, if our old lady knows this, I'm afraid that the first one will make trouble in the Jinluan Palace, saying that our family is not lenient enough to the second uncle's family. ”

Yan Yu said: "Gu Gong's father is Taber's father, is your old lady male or female?" ”

Jia Jiu said: "Naturally, it's a woman. ”

Yan Yu said: "Since that's the case." Why should you worry? ”

Jia Jiu said: "Axiom is axiom, and it has nothing to do with men and women. Could it be that if my grandfather was alive? also has the same idea as the old lady, can you also abolish the growth and young? In the past, the king of Shang also had two sibling brothers, but these two sibling brothers were born when his mother was still a concubine, so even if he was older, he was unanimously vetoed by the minister of civil and military affairs, so there was a matter of the king of Shang ascending to the throne. The king of Shang has been infamous for thousands of years, but no one can deny his orthodoxy, why can't the old master listen to it with his eyes, but use such specious words to flatter the Zhou royal family? ”

In a word, Master Confucius, where is your backbone? Or is it because you yourself are the son of an adulterous son of a wild combination, so you can speak against your conscience about such a thing?

Yan Yu said: "Then what do you think?" ”

Jia Jiu said: "It is courage to take responsibility, and it also takes courage to choose to let go if you know that you are not competent." I think it is this courage that should be recognized, not the act of evading responsibility itself. Since it involves the throne, then Taber and his second brother should also be princes, since they are princes, they enjoyed the worship of their subjects when they were young, and naturally have the responsibility and obligation to repay their subjects when they grow up. He may have abdicated because he knew he was not up to the duties of king, but he could not just run away. If it were me, even if I abdicated, I would retire in a dignified manner, and then assist the king as a courtier to continue to do things for the people. Running into the wilderness will only make people doubt the course and facts of the matter, and it will not be beneficial to the stability of the country. ”

"Do you think it would be better for Taber to stay in Jingshi? Aren't you afraid that Zhou will be divided because of this? ”

Jia Jiu shook his head and said, "If this is the case, I will ask for fair competition, the same village, the same number of people, whoever governs well, let whoever becomes the next king." As a king, the amount of tolerance should be more important than one's own talent. The word "light" and "sanctity" is simply not enough to satisfy a country's needs for a king. ”

How many holiness did King Wen of Zhou have? In Jia Jiu's opinion, he is just a chaotic minister and thief. As a prince of Shang, he originally had the responsibility of paying tribute to Shang, but in fact, he betrayed Shang, and after establishing himself as king, he also got a copy of "Zhou Li", which compiled a lot of bad words about the king of Shang, but did not mention the situation that the king of Shang faced at the beginning.

It is no wonder that such a Zhou royal family will repeat the mistakes of the past later, and even in the end, they can't even retain the least dignity and decency.

Jia Jiu only has two words to give: deserved.

With copper as a mirror, you can be dressed; With the ancient as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall; With people as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses.

What Tang Taizong said was indeed a big truth.

Yan Yu glanced at Jia Jiu deeply and said, "So in your opinion, what kind of person should a virtuous king be?" ”

Jia Jiu was stunned, hesitated for a while, and said, "I don't know." But I want the person sitting in that chair to be a person who understands.
