Chapter 587: Land and Water Conference (2)
Above the palace, the four are quiet, Emperor Zhaoqing sits sideways on the treasure couch, one hand supports his head, the other hand hangs on his knees, and he looks at the long bamboo not far away, explaining the Jingchen of the Book of Changes.
"Therefore, it is big without outside, its small is without inside, yin and yang are combined, and all things in heaven and earth are also. And if you want to know all things, you need to first distinguish their yin and yang, and know their right and wrong. The avenue is void and void, it is real, rigid and soft, there is yang in yin, yin in yang, yin and yang are one, and it is the principle of heaven. ”
"Book of Changes" is the source of easy learning, the full article is only more than 4,000 words, after three ancient and three sages, in ancient times, there was a person Wang Fuxi gossip a painting to open the sky, in ancient times, there were 64 hexagrams derived from King Wen, and in ancient times, there was Confucius's "Ten Wings" preaching.
Jingchen's clear voice spread to every corner of the hall, he spoke easily, starting from yin and yang, and returning to everything, the truth is not difficult to understand, but by the expression of such a handsome and immortal character as him, it makes people feel very clear.
Half an hour of preaching, short or long, some people listen to it fascinatingly, and some people don't think about it at all.
Yu Shu is a person who can't listen to it, she learned Yi, originally it didn't start from a word "reason", but it was a cramming indoctrination of Qingzheng Taoists, and later in order to participate in the Great Yan Exam, she scratched her scalp and memorized a bunch of Yili books, otherwise, at this time, she probably didn't even know where the "Book of Changes" came from.
At this moment, her attention was all on the other side of the golden felt, and there was a row from top to bottom, with King Xiang and King Jing sitting in a row, and next to them, there were two old men who had never seen them, one with white hair, the other with a serious face, and a high-crowned sleeved robe. The chest is embellished with a crane complement.
Yu Shu thought to himself, these two must be Xue Xiang and Yin Xiang, according to the seat, the white-haired one should be Yin Xiang, and the expressionless one should be Xue Rui's grandfather.
This inference surprised her a little, she had seen Xue Guifei and Shufei at the Furong Gentleman's Banquet, the concubine was lively and smiling, and the concubine was a daughter, Xiao's father, who would have thought that Xue Lingnan would be so majestic. On the contrary, it was Yin Xiang who smiled.
Come to think of it. She looked at the rows opposite, Xue Rui said that she would come today, but she hadn't found anyone until she came in. I don't know if he forgot. Or something else happened.
The two prime ministers are below. There were a number of foreign envoys dressed differently, and the others Yu Shu couldn't recognize which one was, but the one with a bald shaved scoop. A thin man with a ponytail must be a good person from Dongying.
Behind the thin man sat two companions, one of whom was nothing unusual, but the other was a young man, with unshaved black hair, neatly tied behind his head, a row of bangs on his forehead hanging down his eyebrows, his skin was snow-white, and he looked quite handsome.
Girl? Yu Shu muttered in his heart.
It was inevitable to look at the young man a few more times, coldly, the young man turned his head and looked at the place where she was, and the eyes of the two were so aligned.
I didn't realize it before, but I realized that the young man's eyes were pale and colorless, staring at her hollowly, causing a sudden chill on her back, so uncomfortable.
She was the first to turn her eyes away, her heart was evil, and she didn't have the heart to listen to what Jingchen said, and she didn't know what to say, after she turned her head, the young man stared at her for a long time.
The Dongying man sitting next to the young man noticed it, and also glanced at Yu Shu's direction, and asked the young man in a low voice, the young man shook his head, hung his head without saying a word, and put his hands on his knees, motionless, and became a sculpture
Jingchen returned to his place, and there was a whisper at the bottom, obviously focusing on discussion.
Forget about Yi Shi's side, everyone is Han and speak Chinese, Yu Shu wondered how the group of "foreigners" on the other side could make an expression of enlightenment and enlightenment one by one, do you really understand, or do you pretend to understand?
After waiting for a while, Emperor Zhaoqing slowly sat up straight, put his hands on the dragon chair, and the eunuch who was waiting on the side saw this, swept the dust in his hand, and said in a loud voice:
"Silence!"
The voices of the people in the hall stopped abruptly.
Emperor Zhaoqing swept around the people below, looked at the envoy, and said with a faint smile:
"You people, you say that if you want to see my great peace and easy learning, I must first ask someone to reason with you, what do you feel after listening to that?"
Yu Shu sat not very far away, and he could barely see the appearance of Emperor Zhaoqing, and only then did he know why this emperor Lao Er favored King Ning so much.
This pair of emperors and fathers and sons are not printed in a mold, and they look like six or seven portraits, they are the same as the eyebrows and eyes, the forehead is square and the nose is broad, and they are born with noble faces.
I don't know if Liu Hao's unrighteous temperament is also the emperor.
The chief envoys of various countries can understand the general language of Da'an, and when they were questioned by the emperor, they stood up one by one to answer, and they all had some strange tones, but they still had to drag the text, which was nondescript, Yu Shu wanted to laugh when he heard it-
"Under the stewed cake, the raw fried Yi Xuexue is doing meow, I will wait for my hands and feet."
This sentence says: Returning to His Majesty, the Holy Dynasty is really wonderful to learn, and we will be taught.
"Pickles and spicy boys, shivering sauce, tell me to kick up and get a fat money."
The son of the general, what he said, told me to wait and listen, and I benefited a lot
Not only Yu Shu, but those who were present had long ears, and when they heard the other side talking, their faces were a little distorted, and they tried their best to hold back their laughter.
"Hahaha!" Emperor Zhaoqing was also happy, a big laugh, like a signal, everyone here couldn't help laughing, this laughter did not contain malicious intent, so the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
When they had laughed enough, Si Tianjian then brought up a batch of utensils that had been prepared for a long time to display, including treasures to attract wealth and ward off evil spirits, as well as tools to keep track of time and calendars.
Xinya is responsible for explaining each use in an orderly manner.
Half an hour passed before everyone returned to their seats. On the spot, an envoy proposed it, hoping that the emperor could give one or two rare items and let them take them back to China to restore their lives.
Emperor Zhaoqing generously agreed and handed it over to Si Tianjian to do. If you want to send it, you can send a set, and you don't get one or two shabby people.
Xin Ya was proud in her heart, thinking that if this errand was done, he would be able to make a lot of money from it.
At this time, the Dongying envoy, who had not spoken much, stared at the exquisite utensils, stood up from the seat, raised his hands to the court, and respectfully bowed to Emperor Zhaoqing, and then spoke:
"The Holy Emperor is above. The foreign minister has something to say. I don't know if to talk about it or not. ”
This Dongying person is very fluent in speech.
Emperor Zhaoqing was probably in a good mood, waved his hand, and said, "Zhun Er is not guilty." Let's talk about it. ”
"Thank you for the Holy Emperor's permission." The Dongying people have done enough gestures. Looking up at the hundred seats opposite, a shriveled smile appeared on the thin sunken cheeks, and said:
"In the eyes of the subordinates. The Holy Dynasty is easy to learn is broad and profound, but it is mostly a theory on paper, teaching people to be rational and reasonable, but when it is used in practice, it is only a borrowed weapon, and can not do what you want, which is really a pity. ”
This is translated, that is, your Yixue talks about some big truths, which can be used in practical places, and you have to rely on those foreign objects and appliances, which is very boring.
Anyone who can be present, can have a few stupid people, listening to him praise and belittle him like this, he will pull down his face.
Originally, Si Tianjian was thoughtful, in order to open the eyes of these foreign "hillbillies", so he showed those feng shui treasures and tools, who would have thought that they would be dismantled by this messenger from Dongying, and said that they were "borrowing weapons", but it seems that they have no real skills, and will only drum up these strange tricks.
The smile on Emperor Zhaoqing's face faded, and he turned his head to look at Xin Ya, who was in charge of the exhibition, and said:
"Did you hear what he said?"
Seeing the emperor's eyes, Xin Ya had a bitter throat at that time, and knew that he couldn't deal with it today, so that the emperor lost face in front of the envoys of several small countries, and the trouble was big, the emperor had said before, don't blame the messenger for talking nonsense, the unlucky one can only be him.
When I went out this morning, the robin on the windowsill was squeaking non-stop, which was not good for going out.
"The minister can hear it, it seems that this envoy has misunderstood," Xin Ya's face was quite calm, and she turned her head to look at the thin and annoying Japanese man, scolding in her heart, but patiently explained:
"I am easy to learn, thousands of uses, all kinds of things, how can I only be proficient in one way of utensils, you and other outsiders, how do you know the profundity of easy learning."
"Really?" The Dongying people looked humbly taught, "Your Excellency's so-called uses are myriad, then I dare to ask, the Holy Dynasty is easy to learn, can you call the wind and rain?" ”
Xin Ya frowned, thinking that this widow was deliberately provocative, but when the emperor looked at it, he could only stubbornly reply: "No." ”
"Can you dispatch ghosts?"
"I can't."
"Can you bring the dead back to life?"
"I can't."
The Dongying people showed that uncomfortable smile again, and said: "These can't be called so many uses, why should Your Excellency boast?" I see the Holy Pilgrimage changing masters, but that's it. ”
This sentence not only touched Xin Ya's face, but also said the face of Bai Yishi present.
Xin Ya also has a temper, a widow from a small country, short-sighted and sitting in the well and watching the sky, and dare to question their ability to be a great security teacher, and make a lot of nonsense here, so he lowered his face and asked rhetorically:
"These skills you are talking about, unless they are immortal arts, how can mortals do them?"
Who knew that the Dongying people were waiting for his words, and immediately raised their chins proudly, and said loudly: "In the territory of our country, there is also an academic, which can indeed call the wind and rain, dispatch ghosts and gods, and bring the dead back to life!" ”
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar - is this widow talking big, or is it true!?
Yu Shu raised his eyebrows in surprise, and couldn't help but turn his head to see how Da Tidian's expression was.
Zhu Muzhao sat quietly on the chief from beginning to end, in the position closest to Emperor Zhaoqing, calm and calm, his face was pale, and he couldn't see his joy or anger at all.
Emperor Zhaoqing didn't speak, and looked down coldly.
Xin Ya felt ridiculous, and didn't think it was true, so she pretended to wave her hand at the Dongying people: "If there is really such a knowledge, you can call the wind and rain to bring the dead back to life, I have to ask for advice, and I have no basis for speaking, and I also ask this messenger to let me wait for me to see." ”
"What's so difficult, this will let the Holy Dynasty also see the true legend of our country - Yin and Yang Technique." (To be continued......)
