096: On the Importance of Beards

"The body is skinned, and the parents who receive it dare not be damaged, and the beginning of filial piety is also."

Many people mistakenly think that the ancients grew beards and long hair because of the constraints of filial piety, but in fact, this is not the case, and the original meaning of filial piety is not that you can't repair your hair and beard, but that people should cherish their bodies and not damage or disability, and damage and repair are completely two concepts. For example, if you commit an accident and have tattoos on your face, this is called injury.

In today's words, respecting life and keeping oneself clean is the beginning of filial piety.

Speaking of hair beard, if a person does not cut his hair and shave all his life, how can he still have an image, which is no different from a savage, and the ancients attached great importance to the image, in fact, no less than modern times, and there are many people who apply vermilion powder.

According to scholars' research, there was a barber in the Western Han Dynasty, and when the hair grew to a certain extent, no matter the shishu, it would be repaired, and the child's hairstyle was more revealing.

So, why did you grow a beard and grow hair in ancient times?

The core problem is that aesthetics play a role.

And the beard, for men, has become more important.

Ancient men were more motivated than modern men, because as long as they reached adulthood, they were the pillars of the family, so maturity and stability were the virtues that every man must have, so the importance of beard appeared.

And many men do need beards to decorate their beauty, even in modern times, many celebrities have completely different beards before and after.

Beards can really enhance beauty, and they can really make women scream with excitement.

It is an essential part of sexiness.

Understanding this problem, it is understandable if you look at the history of Louis VII of France who caused the queen to divorce him because of his shaved hair, but the price of the three-hundred-year Anglo-French war caused by his beard is really a bit ......

Su Ziyu doesn't like Jiayin's beard, because she hopes that her husband will keep his precious innocence for a few more years and be a good man with young health products. Qin Yue didn't like to grow beards, but he had to keep two short mustaches on his lips, because it was not so, it was unstable, and it did not match the image of the majestic and stable emperor in the minds of the people.

It was precisely because of the importance of the beard that Jiayin's prank became the biggest news in Jinling City, and the two Song envoys became news figures overnight.

Sent to the Southern Tang Dynasty, Jiayin's task was to wake up the lazy worms in the south of the Yangtze River, to find a way to destroy the diplomatic relations between the Song and Tang dynasties, and to form a good relationship when he had the opportunity.

Therefore, Jia Yin was very attentive to Song Envoy's every move.

I heard that the Song Mission really lived in the best brocade tower in Jinling City, and there was a singer to help the fun, this guy's two eyeballs turned around, and he had an idea.

He was familiar with Jinlou, so he called Gu Minglou in the middle of the night, took Chishan, and the three of them quietly sneaked to Jinlou with their heads and faces, and let the two of them take the wind for him outside, and he dived in alone.

Although there are guards, but it is very smooth, because it is necessary to hide for His Holiness, the charming girl enters the room to play and sing for the guests, and it is not appropriate to get too close, but I didn't expect it to be cheaper, but it is not his purpose to see the spring at a glance, and it is true to find a way to make Song make a fool.

He got up casually, and only after sneaking in did he think about how to make Song make a fool of himself, and after thinking twice, he put his idea on Liu Zai's beautiful three-line clear beard.

The two palms stunned the person on the bed, took out a dagger on his legs and stomach, shaved Liu Zai's eyebrows and beard cleanly, and was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he put the girl's red belly pocket on him, retreated, and admired the masterpiece well, and then smiled with satisfaction.

This time, he was more experienced, shaved half of it, kept half of it, and then tied the hair of men and women together and tied it in a dead knot......

didn't know that his prank had become a nightmare for the two Song envoys to live forever.

At dawn the next day, when the fat pig screamed like a dying cry in the brocade building, the gossip news spread to every alley like wings, and penetrated into the ears of the people like stimulants.

The more it spreads, the more outrageous it becomes.

Whether it's news or rumors, it's been a reason since ancient times, and the listeners listen to what they like, so the most influential version has become the Song Dynasty's perverted fetish, and the Kabuki can't stand the torture, so he has a heart of revenge, otherwise, the doors and windows are fine, and the beard and eyebrows are shaved.

Then, fueled by well-intentioned people, the excited talk turned into angry denunciation.

During the national funeral, the sacrificial mission also spent the Spring Festival, and he went to seek justice.

Although the Qin envoy is arrogant, the minimum morality is still there, which is like this Song envoy who has a belly of male thieves and prostitutes.

But I didn't know that the Qin envoy came with Mrs. Ru, and it was not easy for the guest envoy to arrange it.

Well, after the act of not seeing the light under the cover of night broke out, the people in Jinling City united like never before.

When Zhai Rubi, the envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty, led a thousand soldiers to surround the Sifang Pavilion and asked the Qin envoy to give an explanation, countless scholars and ordinary people also surrounded the Jinlou and asked the Song delegation to immediately release the persecuted Kabuki.

Surrounded by a thousand Jiashi, Jia Yin's eyelids didn't jump, and he was still leisurely picking and eating breakfast, Gu Minglou was carefully picking salted duck eggs for him, Jia Yin's habit is to save good things until the last bite, so eat egg whites first, and egg yolks last.

He's not at the point where he's giving up protein and not eating.

Zhai Rubi walked in with a gloomy face, and when he saw this scene, he sneered: "Qin Envoy got up early, and he didn't have breakfast until the end of the morning." ”

Jia Yin said with a smile: "I read a poem, and I feel that the poet wrote bullshit that doesn't make sense, and I don't know what spring sleep is, but I don't know that the warm quilt nest in this winter is the most comfortable, do you want to eat a little?" ”

"Thank you, General A, the Ming people don't say dark words, let's give an explanation of last night's incident."

Jia Yin was stunned for a moment, pretending to be confused: "Last night? What's the matter, isn't it that your bed is too finely made, and the bed board is broken, it's also worth making a fuss, and a certain family will pay for it, you, hey, you Nantang are too stingy. ”

Zhai Rubi saw that the girl in Tsing Yi blushed and quickly retreated, and couldn't help but roll her eyes, what is the old man doing with your bird business, "General A, hand over the murderer, as long as you hand over the person, this matter, the old man guarantees that it will be handled properly." ”

"Harm people, harm anyone, Yanke ......"

"Yes."

Zhang Yanke was dressed in full uniform, carrying a war knife, and entered in response.

"What did you do when Lao Tzu went to bed last night?"

"General, except for the sixteen brothers who are on duty in shifts, everyone is resting in the guest room and has never left the hall for a single step."

"Then are you gambling together, or are you calling girls, oh, don't want military discipline?"

"General, neither."

Jia Yin slammed his chopsticks and said angrily: "Then what good deeds have you done, causing Lao Tzu to be scolded by people and looking for death." ”

Zhang Yanke knelt down on one knee and said: "I haven't done anything illegal, and the brothers are all strict in abiding by the rules, but now that the Tang Army is surrounded, the brothers are setting up a defensive position in case of contingency. ”

Jia Yin spread his hands and said to Zhai Rubi: "You see, a certain subordinate is all safe and self-serving, by the way, what happened, is it worth you to be so prosperous?" ”

Zhai Rubi snorted coldly: "The chief and deputy ambassador of the Song Mission, he was shaved his eyebrows and beard last night, such a personal and bad thing, besides you Xiqin, who else will do it." ”

Jiayin was surprised at first, then laughed, slapped the sky and the earth with laughter, and finally laughed out of tears: "Good, good, good, shaved well, shaved croaking, if so, it is refreshing to wipe the neck with a knife, but I don't know which hero made it, and he should be honored with three bowls of wine......"
