Chapter 169: Xiu Gu Sutai
Xiufu Xiu Shouxiao Dream Remnant,
Gu to the sunset mountain outside the mountain.
Su Zihua white sweated slightly,
The star shines without a railing.
On the sand in front of the camp, weeds were pulled out and the ground was smoothed, and the above four sentences were written on branches.
On the mountain, King Wu asked the old man of the hermit when Xi Shi's body would recover, and the old man said these four sentences.
These four sentences are not easy to understand. Fan Li and Bo Yao are both extremely smart people, and they can't figure out what these four sentences say.
If you take the phone call literally, the approximate meaning of these sentences is,
People are vain in their pursuit of happiness and longevity, but their dreams are empty (fortune and misfortune), it is better to conform to nature with an indifferent heart, let their souls be transparent, and look high and far away under the illumination of the three stars.
The general meaning should be that if you maintain a calm and quiet state of mind, do nothing, and you will naturally be healthy and happy.
This has a very heavy birth thought, which is consistent with Fan Li's thought, and his book "Fan Lizi" expounds this kind of thought.
But does this have anything to do with Shih Tzu's treatment?
Several people discussed and discussed, but there was no result.
King Wu said, "The widow's head is big. This old man's nonsense has made us confused, and we still don't know what to do. ”
Bo Yao said, "I'll force it." These words contain a meaning, that is, man should be integrated into nature. Naturally, it will make us feel better. If you think about it, there is some truth to it. Mrs. is not sick, but her heart is depressed, to put it bluntly, she is in a bad mood, and if the situation is serious, it will affect her health. We took my wife out to camp and climb the mountain, and my wife's mood immediately improved, and her foot was broken, but it didn't affect her mood. Say. We got it right. It is exactly the meaning of these four sentences. ”
King Wu said: "The widow doesn't know if what you said is right or not, but it sounds very reasonable. ”
Fan Li said: "The four sentences also imply a meaning, that is, to climb high often. Ascending is the most effective way to express your feelings. Today, as soon as Shih Tzu heard about climbing the mountain, her eyes lit up, climbing the mountain faster than us men, and there was no psychological depression at all, as Dazai-sama said just now, the foot did not affect the mood. ”
Bo Yao said: "This is a good explanation, only by climbing high can we see far, see widely, be broad-minded, and the mood will naturally improve." ”
King Wu said: "What the two said makes sense, that is, if a person is locked up in the harem like an animal, it is easy to have problems, and he must often go out for a walk, climb the mountain, and climb the heights. Is that what it means? ”
Fan Li said: "This is all our guess, who knows if it's right." ”
As he was talking, there was a burst of happy laughter from the Shih Tzu girls.
King Wu was happy: "Look how happy they are!" That's right, that's what it means. It boils down to two words: ascend! ”
"Wait!" Bo Yao shouted, "There is still a mystery hidden in these words. ”
King Wu said, "What did Dazai find again?" ”
Bo Yao pointed to the words on the ground with a branch and said, this is still a Tibetan poem, please look at the word at the beginning of each sentence, Xiu, Gu, Su, Tai. Connected, it is Xiugu Sutai. ”
Fan Li shouted: "Lord Dazai, you are too powerful, it is really a hidden poem, it is very clear, Xiu Gu Sutai." ”
"Xiu Gu Sutai?" King Wu hadn't come back to his senses yet, "What does this mean?" ”
Fan Li said: "King." The meaning is very clear, that is, to build a garden in Gusu, and there is a high platform in it, called Gusu Terrace, for Mrs. Changguo to climb high and look into the distance. Keep a good mood. This is the prescription that the old hermit gentleman gave to his wife. ”
Bo Yao said: "That hermit is a master of the world, you see he asked his wife to wipe her feet with leaves, and her feet immediately stopped hurting." ”
King Wu said, "What Dazai means is that we have to listen to the words of the masters, don't we?" ”
"Isn't the king worried about his wife's health? No matter who you are, whoever comes up with the idea, as long as you say it is right, we will accept it, and what you say is good for the health of the lady, and I will do it according to you. The prescription prescribed by the old hermit can eliminate the depression in the lady's heart, so we will follow his prescription, the king, do you say this is the reason? ”
King Wu said, "Young uncle, what do you think? ”
Fan Li said: "In the end, the king has to make a decision on this matter. The minister gave his opinion. The minister thinks that the construction of such a garden has several meanings, first of all, we have, the vassal states do not, he just has, we are better than his big, this is also a deterrent to the vassal states, this will be a landmark building, it represents the prosperity and strength of the Wu country. This is external, internal, here can be a banquet for the ministers, can be held here to hold a sacrifice ceremony, important festivals can be allowed to come here to play, can also be used as a reward, so that meritorious people can recuperate here. Wait a minute. Of course, the most important thing is that you can still let your wife play here, climb high, row, fish, and hold theatrical performances here. In this way, we don't need to stir up the people, as long as we have Gusutai, Mrs. can always maintain a happy mood. We don't have to be like King Zhou You, in order to win a smile from the beauties, light a beacon fire, and lose faith in the princes. ”
King Wu said: "Young Uncle said this, building a Gusutai has so many benefits. ”
Fan Li said: "The biggest benefit is that Gusutai can bring happiness to Mrs. Changguo, and Mrs.'s joy is the king's joy." As a generation of rulers, kings should enjoy joy. ”
King Wu nodded again and again: "What you said is reasonable!" ”
Fan Li said: "King, you ask Madame first, see if Madame likes it or not." ”
King Wu said, "I'll ask." Come here, ma'am. ”
Xi Shi was in a good mood, and came over like a little girl: "King, what's the matter of calling a concubine?" ”
King Wu said, "The widow tells you something. We're talking about building a Gusu Terrace for you to play in, do you like it? ”
Sparks sparkled in Xi Shi's eyes: "Really? ”
King Wu said, "Of course it's true. ”
Xi Shi said excitedly: "Isn't it the kind that is very high?" ”
King Wu said, "Yes, it's very high,"
Shih Tzu said, "Can you see far, far away when you climb up?" ”
King Wu said: "Yes, you can see dozens of miles away when you climb Wu, and Taihu Lake is right under your eyes." ”
Shih Tzu said, "Wow! That's nice. Wait, is there water in it? ”
King Wu said, "Yes! We dug a very big lake in it, where you can go boating and fishing, and there are many water birds on the water, including wild ducks, egrets, and mandarin ducks. ”
Shih Tzu said, "Is there a tree?" ”
"There are trees. Trees of all kinds. ”
"Is there grass?"
"There is grass"
"Are there any flowers? I love flowers,"
King Wu said: "There are flowers, all kinds of flowers, and there is a fragrance of flowers all year round. ”
Xi Shi said: "If you are tired of playing and don't want to go back to the palace, where is there a place to sleep?" ”
King Wu said: "Yes, there are many, many rooms there, you can stay in that room if you like it." ”
Xi Shi said: "It's good, I want to raise some little white rabbits, and I want some sika deer, I like sika deer very much." Have it? ”
King Wu said, "Yes, all of them." ”
Xi Shi said: "King, concubines like such places, you can build one for your concubines." ”
King Wu said: "Okay, the widow will build a Gusutai for his wife!" ”
