Chapter 1207: The Beginning of Civilization
Fu Han Gong didn't say it, Lu Wenmu refers to the champion and the first, Lu Mengzheng, who served as the prime minister of the two dynasties and three times of Taizong Zhenzong.
When Lu Mengzheng was just appointed as deputy prime minister, on his first day of taking office, he saw someone in a room pointing at him through the door curtain and saying, "This kid has also become a governor?" β
Lu Mengzheng pretended not to hear, lowered his head and hurriedly walked over.
The colleague who was traveling well with Lu Mengzheng was very dissatisfied and wanted to see who this person was, but was stopped by Lu Mengzheng.
After the next dynasty, his colleagues were still indignant, regretting that they had not caught the man at that time. Lu Mengzheng persuaded: "If you know his name, you will never forget it, it is better not to know." β
Lu Mengzheng's old classmate Wen Zhongshu has been speaking ill of him for a long time, but Lu Mengzheng didn't care at all and recommended him to the imperial court.
There is a person named Fu Yan, who is Lu Mengzheng's guest. One day he told Lu Mengzheng: "I have a son who is a teenager, and I want him to enter the academy and be a scholar for your son." β
Lu Mengzheng asked Fu Yan to bring the child, and after meeting and asking, he exclaimed: "Your son is amazing, and his reputation will definitely be similar to mine in the future, and his meritorious career can even far surpass me." β
Not only did he and his sons classmates, but he also paid for the child's study.
This child is another famous minister of the later Great Song Dynasty, Fu Bi.
One of the courtiers had a collection of ancient mirrors, claiming that the mirror could illuminate a landscape of 200 miles, and wanted to dedicate it to LΓΌ Mengzheng for appointment. Lu Mengzheng smiled and said, "My face is only the size of a saucer, where can I use a mirror that shines two hundred miles?" "Everyone who heard about it was impressed.
Some people also sent an ancient inkstone to Lu Mengzheng, saying that this inkstone is moist and does not need to be filled with water. Lu Meng was staring at Gu Yan and said with a smile, even if he took out a load of water a day, it was only worth ten yuan.
In the earliest days, the son of the prime minister, he started as a member of the Ministry of Water, and later became the system of the Great Song Dynasty. Lu Mengzheng played after the execution: "The ministers and the first, the release of the brown stop awarded the nine grades of the Beijing official." In addition, there are many talents in the world, and there are many people who do not touch an inch. Today, the minister began to leave the swaddling clothes, and begged the minister to make up for it when the official released the brown. β
From that time on, the prime minister's son stopped conferring on the Jiupin Jingguan and became the new custom.
Once, Song Taizong had a dispute with the envoys of the Liao State, and LΓΌ Mengzheng insisted on his own opinion and did not change the candidate for three consecutive times.
was so angry that Song Taizong threw the submitted documents to the ground: "Why is Qing so stubborn? β
Everyone was so frightened that they didn't dare to speak, but Lu Mengzheng picked up the song and said, "The minister is not stubborn, but His Majesty can't understand it." β
"There is no one more qualified as an envoy. The ministers are unwilling to use sycophancy, so as to delay state affairs. β
In the end, Taizong reluctantly adopted Lu Mengzheng's suggestion, and after retreating from the court, he sighed to the people around him: "Lu Mengzheng's strength, I can't compare to it......"
To this day, Su You has also mixed up a lot of anecdotes in the political arena, and some people in the DPRK and China have long compared him with Lu Meng Zhengfubi.
Magnanimous, such as Lu Huiqing, Zeng Bu, and Lu Jiawen, these people who have attacked him under Wang Anshi's banner can be accommodated by Su You.
Not quiet, not greedy for enjoyment, never accept bribes, ancient mirrors and ancient inkstones, some are bought with money, but they are all sent to Kezhen Hall for display for the world to watch.
On the contrary, his life is simple, and he can even lead and create the trend of the Great Song Dynasty, and set off a new fashion of advocating natural simplicity and elegance in the family of scholars.
For talents, Su You does not care about his background, blind people such as Wei Pu, pawns such as Wang Wenyu, barbarians such as Fan Longshan and Su Lie, prisoners such as Wu Kui, and down-and-out such as Cai Qu and He Zhu...... As long as it is useful, he will use it greatly, and when he has results, he will immediately recommend it to Zhao Ji.
As for the scholars, there are countless people who have been trained by his shogunate to enter the official career, and most of them are handsome.
Even the sons of Wang Qi and Cai Qu were collected in Kezhen Hall.
But for his own children, Su You resolutely refused Zhao Ji's official title.
That's not something that ordinary people can do.
Even with today's status, Su You treats people and things as gently as ever, and everyone in Kaifeng Mansion from eighty old men to three-year-old children knows Tanhualang's famous good temper.
These anecdotes have made Su You get an excellent reputation, and they all say that he has a bearing and demeanor that is richer than Lu Mengzheng, and his great achievements are still better than Kou Zhun Han Qi.
Su You bowed: "Your Majesty is humble and a model for the world, and the ministers are overjoyed, so they should congratulate the people of the world." β
At this time, the flat can took out an Olympic torch-like thing and stretched it under the black kettle, and with a bang, a flame came out.
Coming with a burning torch: "Daddy, the fire has been drawn." β
Su You rolled up his sleeves and tied them up, folded his head behind his head, and pulled out a fire starter from under the barbecue grill: "Turn on the stove, turn on the fire, let's eat barbecue today." β
Bian Can said: "Bake more dried tofu, my mother said that Daddy's roasted dried tofu is the best." β
Zhao Ji was just shocked by the extremely ceremonial movements of the flat jar, and then was amused by both the father and son: "Wait a minute, Mingrun, what are you going to do...... Cook? β
Su You ignited the solid alcohol under the carbon furnace with the ignition rod, and took out a small hand-cranked blower to blow the air on the hearth, and quickly ignited the smokeless charcoal on it: "Your Majesty, there are clouds in the "Book of Rites and Internal Rules", the children and parents, the first song of the chicken, the salty gargle, the general flute, the fashionable, the crown, the gentleman, and the wat." Left and right wearing: left and right wearing: left Peifen, εΈ¨, knife sharpening, Xiaojian, Jin Sui; Right Peijue, Han, Guan, Yan, Dajin, Mu Sui. β
"A woman's aunt is like a parent. It is suitable for parents and aunts. β
"Then I serve the elders, ask them what they want to eat, retire to buy food, and then go into service."
"So this yang flint wood flint, although it is a fire thing, can represent filial piety."
"The custom has spread to this day, and the new fire after the cold food festival at home represents the family's expectations for the new year."
After the fire is lit, Su You puts a pot on one side, heats up the chicken soup that has been stewed before, and begins to spread the iron plate and brush the oil for grilling.
The mouth is still non-stop: "In "The Great Biography of Shangshu", Fu Sheng took the Suiren clan as the head of the three emperors, and thought it was reasonable for human beings to learn to use fire as the beginning of civilization. β
"In the ancient world, human beings could only drink blood with their hair, and the decrepit could not be fed."
"When there is fire, you can cook it, not only will the food be easier to absorb, but the grains and meat will be eaten by the elderly. It is the end of filial piety and the starting point of the etiquette system. β
"Tang Liu Yuxi's "Wuling Watching Fire" poem: 'Fire virtue is a living person, but there is no mediocrity for a day?' Isn't the root of the virtue of fire here? β
Zhao Ji was stunned, only to feel that his heart was pounding, and his palms were sweating.
The five virtues are always very useful when overthrowing others, but in the same way, when it is the turn of others to overthrow themselves, they are also very useful.
And Su You's words by the fireside greatly surpassed Dong Zhongshu's "Five Virtues Always Said", giving a new definition and connotation of "Fire Virtue", and with a little polish, it can become a solid theoretical foundation for the eternal succession of the Great Song Dynasty.
The meaning of Su You, with the Suiren clan as the ancestor of civilization, and the beginning of the ritual practice with fire virtue, said that Song Cheng Huode is because the Great Song Dynasty can support the people, promote benevolence and filial piety, and govern the world with civilization.
irrefutable, irrefutable!
Even Su Song and Chen Zhaoming on the side were shocked, such a high-sounding theory was not said in the court, but by the hot fire, freshly baked with barbecue, this is really ...... It smells so good!
Zhao Ji was still in a trance, so he heard Su You shouting on the side: "Flat tank, is the water boiling?" Prepare tea for Your Majesty! I'm baked here! β
"Okay, okay......" Flat Jar ran over with a black kettle, "I'm here to perform a tea ceremony for Your Majesty." β
said that it was a tea ceremony, but in fact, the kung fu was done by Wang Yanbi, and the flat jar was only responsible for adding water.
But it couldn't prevent Zhao Ji from eating very comfortably this meal.
