1.37 Safari in the Garden

When I first saw He Jin at the Shangling Ceremony, he was in the middle of the service.

The servant is a close minister and an official. There is no fixed number of people, and most of them are served by famous Confucians or children of noble relatives. "In and out of the ban, the adviser responds, and the rank is always there." "Palm the clothes, down to the genus of the profane tiger."

As a close minister, the servant is in charge of His Majesty's car, sedan chair, clothes, utensils, etc., and is even responsible for serving toilets to His Majesty. It shows closeness.

will be a master craftsman, but he is in charge of the colonel's office, and his position is the same as Jiuqing. For He Jin, it is naturally a promotion. According to the practice of our dynasty, the queen's father and brother must be generals. He Jin is estimated that he will not stay in the position of master craftsman for too long. Therefore, he was just in the middle of the service, and there were many heroes around him.

Although Yuan Shao was white, he went in and out of He Jin's mansion. The two had a close relationship. It can be seen why he came to deliver the name card in person today. Why did he invite Liu Bei, or he also had the intention of getting married. Presumably there will be no difficulty, but Liu Bei will not be harmful.

The address is not in the Shizhong Mansion. Rather, in the western suburbs of Luoyang, the garden.

The garden is the private garden of the former general Liang Ji. Located in the western suburbs of Luoyang, the range is tens of miles, it is said that it is to mobilize the soldiers of the county to build, "repair the building view, a few years is completed".

Its "halls and bedrooms all have yin and yang rooms, even rooms and holes. The pillar wall is carved and painted with copper. The windows are all sparse and trivial. The picture shows a cloud fairy. The pavilion is Zhoutong, and it is more in sight. Flying beam stone pedals, Ling across the waterway". In the park, "mining soil for the mountain, ten miles and nine mountains, like a rain dragonfly." The deep forest is like nature. Strange birds train beasts and fly away". Later, "the rabbit was tuned." Carved hair is knowledge, and if a person commits a crime, the sin will be death."

Liang Ji's power overwhelmed the country, and finally caused Emperor Huan to be angry, so he made up his mind to get rid of Liang Ji.

Soon Liang Ji committed suicide in fear of crime, his family property was confiscated, and the mansion and garden were all demolished.

Now that it's been demolished, why go to this garden?

Jia Xu explained: Although all the pavilions and bedrooms have been demolished. The scenery in the park is still there. It is also one of the few private gardens in Luoyang that can be enjoyed by the people. Therefore, the sons of the Luoyang family often go to the park to play together. The park can host many activities such as horse racing, bowing, and hunting. Loved by sons.

I see.

He Jin set up the place where the banquet was held. It may not be that there is no intention of marrying the Luoyang family.

In other words, this is a private banquet in the nature of play.

Liu Bei originally wanted to go by car. How can the two righteous brothers rest assured. In addition, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are blood relatives, so they must be guarded against. Shi Lian also asked for orders. Xu Rong and Cheng Pu are also going.

So, no one saved. The Linxiang convoy was mighty and rushed to the garden.

"Mining soil for mountains, ten miles and nine mountains."

'Ban', which means steep slope. For example, the famous Nagasaka slope in later generations.

The method of piling soil in the garden, imitating the trend of the mountain, and condensing the real landscape into a rockery garden, is the earliest record of the classical garden in the literature. In other words, the garden rockery is likely to be pioneered by Liang Ji. In addition, trees are also widely planted on the rockery of Liangyuan, and strange birds and animals are stocked to enhance the sense of realism.

The West Garden, where Liu Bei had just been given a banquet, also imitated Shaohua Mountain and built rockeries. Shaohua Mountain, also known as Xiaohua Mountain, is in the southeast of Zheng County. "The Classic of Mountains and Seas": "(Taihua Mountain) is eighty miles to the west, and it is called the mountain of Xiaohua. ”

Zhang Heng's "Tokyo Fu" has the sentence: "Xideng Shaohua, Pavilion Waiting for Repair". "Anthology, Tokyo Fu, Li Note" says: "It is said that there is a mountain of Shaohua in the West Garden. ”

There are also "Han Official Duties": "The palace garden, gather soil for mountains, ten miles and nine mountains, plant strange trees, breed elk muntjac, and hundreds of birds and beasts." It can be seen that the pile of soil in the West Garden is the same as that of Liang Ji Garden. The rockery in the west garden is planted with strange trees. There are nearly 100 species of livestock and poultry in stock. The mountains are full of green bamboos, and the thick shade covers the sky. The mountains and rivers reflect each other, and the scenery is beautiful. In the meantime, it is like really being in Shaohua Mountain.

There is also a building on the mountain. The so-called "Pavilion Waiting for Repair". "Zhou Li, Local Officials, and Survivors": "There is a waiting hall in the city. Zheng Xuan said: "The waiting building, you can wait and see." ”

It can be seen that the construction method of the West Garden and the Liang Ji Garden is quite similar.

Liang Ji is arrogant and domineering, cruel and easy to kill. However, it is the first to create a rockery garden construction method. His wife frowned, cried makeup, fell into a horse bun, bent her waist, and smiled with caries. It was also imitated by later generations.

The power of the Great Changqiu Cao Festival leans towards the government and the opposition. But he was sick and asked Liu Bei to enter the palace and open Luoyang City. Liu Bei was quite moved.

How to judge and how to be right?

Love and hate are clear, and grievances are clear.

Because of private affairs, the public cannot be abolished, and private relations do not affect the festival.

The most important thing is to repay kindness and dare to act.

When Sun Li was young, he was in turmoil and separated from his mother. Laixiang people came to the rescue, and the mother and son had to be reunited. Sun Li gave all the family wealth to Ma Tai as a thank you. Later, Cao Cao conquered Youzhou, and Pi Sun Li sought for the air force. Shi Matai was implicated and was about to die. In order to repay the old favor, Sun Li released the horse platform privately. He didn't want to abscond, so he went straight to the main book to surrender himself. Wen Hui found out the beginning and the end, and greatly appreciated Sun Li's kindness and retribution, so he informed Cao Cao of the matter, and both Sun Li and Ma Tai were spared death.

This matter seems to be contrary to 'the public cannot be abolished because of selfishness, and private relations do not damage the festival'.

However, as I said before, everyone has a dual identity: official identity and Jianghu identity. Be loyal to your duties as an official. It is incumbent upon you to be friends.

How to have it both ways?

Serve the death and lose loyalty, sacrifice life for righteousness.

Think about it. If Sun Li is the only one who is righteous in this matter, neither he nor Ma Tai will be spared death. However, the main bookkeeper Wen Hui and Sikong Cao Cao acted like this from top to bottom. It can be seen that the chivalrous wind penetrates deep into the bone marrow of the Han Dynasty and cannot be separated.

The wind of Ren Xia is only a big man. It is not the same as the collapse of etiquette, the degradation of morality, the flies and the dogs, and the future generations of the dogs and flies. Ladies and gentlemen, please keep in mind.

Imagine. If there is no moral chivalry. All the scholars wore swords, the common people carried swords, and every family had a bow and crossbow. Isn't it the same as the rice country that does not ban guns in later generations, with moral degradation and chaos?

Right.

In other words, is there any connection between Rongcheng Wei Sun Mian and Sun Li?

Let's see.

Out of Luoyang Xiguo, the road is very flat. Galloping all the way, dozens of miles of galloping, has arrived in an instant.

The gate of the garden was destroyed early, but it was guarded by soldiers. Liu Bei thought it was a soldier of the He family. I asked Fang Zhi, and they were all Gyeonggi rangers. Since Liangyi questioned the crime and surrendered the law, the private garden was demolished, and there were rangers who occupied this garden. On weekdays, they drive away the displaced people and protect the mountains and forests. When a son plays, he leads the cart and the horse, drives away the beast, and acts as a helper.

The so-called backing the mountain eats the mountain. This ten-mile garden, but they are also indispensable. The nobles are also happy to see it.

Liu Bei asked who was the leader.

Answer: Yang, Xu.

Hearing that it was a car driving in the hometown, several rangers stepped forward to lead the way. He walked faster than a horse.

is as brave as Si, Rao is Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and they also nodded and praised.

Soon after entering the park, I heard the neighing of people and horses.

Bypass the rockery. I saw two teams of people, you come and go, swinging bravely.

Bowing.

Liu Bei recognized Yuan Shao in the team at a glance. I saw a person beside Yuan Shao again. Short posture, broad face and beard. Rushing back and forth, extremely brave.

"Who is this?" Liu Bei asked the guide ranger.

The ranger replied: "Speaker Cao Mengde is also!" ”
