Volume 1 Chapter 21 Peace
"I just heard that His Royal Highness said a very yellow scarf, but it reminded me of Yang Gong's performance. Has Your Highness heard about the Taiping Dao? Shi Ziyan looked quite nervous.
Liu Wei also felt a pang in his heart: "I have never heard of it." ”
Shi Ziyi said angrily: "Taichang Yang Gong has said, the greater the momentum of Taiping Dao, the more I am afraid of harm, please ask Your Majesty to make a decision." ”
"How do you know?"
"Your Majesty discussed with me, talked about this matter, and asked me about the Taiping Taoism. I know that Your Highness attaches great importance to this matter, so I have made a special note of it, and I want to find an opportunity to tell you about it. Since Your Highness mentioned it today, I'll stop by the way. Shi Ziyi said slowly.
The reason why Shi Ziyi's generosity was able to change from a mere Lang official to a regular attendant on the side of the emperor in the forbidden middle school is naturally not only admired by Cao Jie, or his good protection of the emperor can be promoted, but more importantly, what he has learned has truly achieved the emperor's favor.
Liu Hong is the most hated Confucianism, which can be seen from the establishment of Hongdu to benchmark Taixue, he loves art, and the promotion of Taoism undoubtedly makes Shi Ziyi, a person with a low status and shallow knowledge, highly valued, so Shi Ziyi, who should have entered the palace to accompany the prince, spent more time sitting with the emperor Liu Hong and discussing the Tao.
As for Wu Kuang's so-called "old people who are old and ask to see Shi Changshi", they have not been investigated too much because Shi Ziyi personally raised a knife to cut off his head, and because of this, Shi Ziyi has become more and more trusted by the emperor, and some political affairs of the previous dynasty have naturally been told to him to some extent.
And the word "yellow scarf", as early as at the foot of the Beibi Mountain, Liu Wei and Shi Ziyi mentioned it a lot, although the Taiping Daoists at this time were not called yellow turban thieves at all, nor were they people with yellow scarves on their heads, but the two tacitly knew it, needless to say.
"The fourth and second dukes of the Yang family, it won't be long before they can be like the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family, it's not unusual to have this insight." Liu argues for money.
"Your Highness's words, just like under the Beibi Mountain, are you slightly the same as Yang Gong's view?"
"Naturally, this Taiping Dao is not a good thing for the benefit of the world and the people, so what kind of great sage and good teacher is just a big liar who deceives the world and steals his name, Fu Shui old people cure diseases, do you believe it?" Liu Wei was full of disdain.
Shi Ziyi shook his head and said: "I have also read this "Taiping Sutra", which involves heaven and earth, yin and yang, five elements, ten branches, disasters, and immortals, although the content is mixed, but in the end, it is always good to pursue a peaceful and harmonious world order and persuade people to be good." ”
"Books may be good books, but people are not good people." Liu Wei waved his hand again and again: "Although I haven't read this "Taiping Sutra", but I heard that this northland homeless people traveled thousands of miles to vote for that great sage and good teacher, just to get a bowl of runic water, such a demon art, how can you persuade people to be good?" ”
Shi Ziyi shook his head and said: "Your Majesty said that the people are ignorant and do not distinguish between good and evil, so there are many people in the local area who expose and act rebelliously. His Majesty has also read this "Taiping Sutra", knows the essence of the scriptures, and once said that if this great sage and good teacher can carry out this scripture and preach for good, it is a move to rejuvenate the country and reassure the people, and if the common people can follow this scripture to be good, there will be no rebellion. ”
"So, you all have great appreciation for this great teacher?"
Shi Ziyi was silent for a long time and nodded, and said, "Your Highness, in the past, under the Beibi Mountain, you have a lot of misunderstandings about this Taiping Dao. ”
"That's right, the so-called authorities are confused, bystanders are clear, and people who are prepared for danger in times of peace are rare in ancient times. Yang Gong has such a knowledge, he can rule the world, but it is a pity that he was born in the wrong era. Liu Wei sighed and said leisurely.
Shi Ziyi was silent.
"Dad, after so many years, you still don't think about what I said about the Taiping Dao, right?"
Shi Ziyi's old face was flushed, and he still didn't say a word.
"As for what I begged my father to say to His Majesty, that is, what Yang Gong said today, I think you didn't tell Your Majesty Dad, otherwise there would be no what we have today, right?"
Shi Ziyi was silent for a long time: "Ahou, that life-saving talisman water does have the effect of curing diseases and saving people." ”
"Oh? So, what is the cause of those who drink the water and die of illness? ”
"Naturally, they are not sincere in their hearts, and they are not believers. Or maybe it's been seriously ill for a long time, and it's really not something that can be cured by water. Shi Ziyi explained.
Liu Biao couldn't help but sneer: "Fu Shui saves people, eleven is not as good as eleven, if this thing can be a holy thing, then I, Liu Bian, soaked urine and drank with people, one or two of the living, but I want to say that my Liu Bian's urine is a life-saving holy thing?" ”
Shi Ziyi's face was solemn, and his face was pale: "Your Highness shouldn't have such vulgar words. ”
"Dad, I don't suspect that your quest is ridiculous." Seeing Shi Zi's expression, Liu Wei was finally a little unbearable, and said slowly: "You can follow the Taoist technique, do more good deeds, and give to the township, that is your generosity, is an excellent kindness, as Your Majesty said, the common people are ignorant, even if the original intention of the great sage and good teacher is good, if he has a person with evil intentions in the future, the millions of displaced people in front of him are the people, so how can we talk about persuading people to be good, and what kind of harmony and order can be built?" ”
Seeing that Shi Ziyi was silent, Liu Wei continued to ask: "Dad, in your opinion, whose fault is it that the displaced people in the world are displaced and homeless in this world?" ”
Shi Zi stopped talking, but actually sighed.
Liu Wei smiled and said: "If you don't say it, I also know, according to your opinion, you are arrogant and arrogant, and the family is exploited, as for the people, the old have nothing to do, the strong have no use, the young have no strengths, the widows, widows, lonely and abandoned people have nothing to support, and the fault cannot be blamed on the people in any case, yes or no?" ”
Shi Ziyi still didn't speak.
"Yes, I also think that the people are not wrong!" Liu Wei continued: "As the saying goes, Xing, the people are suffering. Death, the people suffer. The people don't know anything, so what's wrong? However, the heroic right of the world, also from the time of Li Shu, has overcome obstacles and overcome obstacles, and their ambition is not falling, so that they have today's family and heroic, what is wrong with them? ”
"According to His Highness, who is at fault?" Shi Ziyi finally spoke.
"Actually, I don't know." Liu Wei shook his head, and said slowly: "Gaozu and the common people started an incident, cut the white snake, eight years of hardship, four hundred years of foundation in the Han Dynasty, the descendants of the Liu family are more virtuous, and they are born noble, which is not an unfair thing, and the same is true of the family. However, it is a mistake to be in his position and not do his job, and end up in trouble in the world and the people in hardship. Or that the people of the poor family have become the right of the family by doing great things, but they have done the bad deeds of the ancient wealthy families, and they do not think about benefiting the people in order to change, which is the fault. Probably, it's the people, not the family, who are at fault. ”
Shi Ziyi seemed to understand, but he didn't know where to understand, and he was stunned for a while.
"So I think it's not the times, not the royal family, not the family, not the Haoyou, not the commoners, not any class, but the individual. This person can be the Son of Heaven, the patriarch of the world, or the common people. Liu Wei looked back at Shi Ziyi and said: "As a fellow cultivator, Dad, you are kind-hearted and willing to do good, and you are not wrong, but that great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao gathered the crowd with demonic skills, regardless of the people running thousands of miles, working hard to death, and taking advantage of the ignorance of the common people to try to misbehave, that is a big mistake." ”
"But if there is no fault of the powerful of the world, how can we talk about the fault of the common people?" Shi Ziyi asked.
"But correcting mistakes is not the right thing in the end." Liu Wei immediately retorted, but sighed helplessly.
Shi Ziyi was speechless.
"Zhang Jiao's matter, Dad, you will understand it sooner or later." Liu Wei said it like this, he felt depressed in his heart, looked depressed, and sighed: "However, Gaozu also corrects mistakes and changes chaos as a rule, if it is really not ruled by chaos, but I don't know what to do, this world is really difficult!" ”
