Chapter 452 [The more loyal you are, the more you can be deceived]
A folk old man!
Spit on the emperor's saliva!
This incident made Li Shimin stunned, and Li Yun next to him secretly laughed, hehe said twice in his heart, and said secretly: "Second uncle, you also have today." β
The ancients paid attention to respecting the elderly.
Once the elder is old, it is really a bit of a taboo meaning, you have to listen to the scolding twice, you have to endure the two sentences of scolding, and after being scolded, you have to bow your hand, and sincerely say a sentence of thanks to the elder's teachings.
For example, at the end of the Qin Dynasty, there was an old man living in seclusion in Yishui, Shandong, one day there was a young man walking after dinner, walked to the bridge and saw the old man walking on the bridge, originally the old man was just walking around, after seeing the young man, he suddenly did not go, sat on the bridge suddenly, took off his shoes and threw it into the water, and then the big lama looked at the young man, and angrily reprimanded: "Do you have eyesight?" Didn't you see the old shoes fall under the bridge? Go pick it up, it's ...... slippery" (blind?) Seeing the shoes in the water? Get off the bridge and pick it up! Speak out of Langya Sun's "Han Xian Picks Up Fun", a very remote wild history)
This story can be recorded by the wild history, it is very likely that it is true, the content of the story is very interesting, it is called touching porcelain in later generations, if it is a young man in the new era of this kind of thing, maybe he will stretch his neck and stare at him, scolding and shouting: "You are an old immortal, your eyes are bright and then find fault." β
And how will the modern old man respond?
It is likely that he smiled, stretched out his legs and kicked directly, and the old arms and legs went to the ground, and hummed and chirped: "Young man, there is a kind, if there is no ten thousand children in this matter today, your uncle and I will lie on the ground and not get up." β
Look......
Whether it is touching porcelain or being touched, it is all immoral to deal with things.
The Chinese tradition has been lost.
And how did the ancients do it?
Look at the young man who jumped directly into the river to pick up his shoes, he didn't dislike the cold water, nor did he blame the old man for finding trouble, he picked up the shoes and sent them back respectfully, and shook the shoes vigorously before sending them.
Even if he respected the old man so much, the old man was still not satisfied, and his eyes glared again, and the big lama scolded: "Is it okay to send it back?" Don't look at how old my old man is? Do I have the strength to sit on the ground and wear shoes? You little thing doesn't have any eyesight. β
I owe you?
If this is left in the future generations, the grumpy young man is afraid that he will be slapped directly, with whom are the two? Get used to your stinky problem!
But the young man in ancient times was still respectful, and he really obediently went to put shoes on the old man, because the old man was sitting on the ground, the young man had to squat if he wanted to put shoes on him, but the old man deliberately did not cooperate, and the young man knelt directly on the ground to put on shoes.
Who is this young man? It is the Han Dynasty to wait for Zhang Liang!
Who is the old man who touches porcelain? It is the immortal Huangshi Gong......
Although this is just a wild historical rumor, it reflects the tradition of the ancients to respect the elderly.
In fact, in ancient times, this kind of story is not a story, but many examples of real existence, whether it is the folk or the court, respecting the old is a big rule, and when encountering the elderly, the young people spit on themselves.
This is a kind of etiquette, but also a virtue, the Chinese nation has been inherited for thousands of years, some rules seem to be bad habits are actually beneficial, this is the way to educate people's hearts, everyone has an old time......
β¦β¦
The old man was about sixty years old, this kind of age is a taboo existence in the Tang Dynasty, although he spit on Li Shimin, but the old man did not have the consciousness of causing trouble at all, but his eyes glared at the emperor, scolded and reprimanded: "What do you see? Haven't you ever seen an old man with fire? Line up in the back, and then dare to squeeze believe it or not, and the big-eared scraper will pump you? Seeing that you are not very old, there should still be an old man at home, he has not taught you the rules, if you don't teach, let him teach him again. β
"You ......"
Li Shimin had ever been so angry, and the emperor's cheeks were bulging, but the old man glared again, seeing that the posture was about to hit someone.
The emperor gritted his teeth and tried to take a few deep breaths, although his cheeks bulged out, but he still had to put out a little smile, and said in a harmonious voice: "Old man, I ......"
The old man looked at him in the eye.
Li Shimin closed his mouth in time, took a deep breath and said, "Old man, you really have a big temper. β
As soon as the emperor said this, the old man was a little satisfied, the anger on his face disappeared instantly, he nodded at the emperor to express his approval, and snorted: "This is almost the same, he is a polite person." β
Li Shimin took the opportunity to come to the old man's side and asked in a gentle tone: "Can the juniors ask, why did your old man suddenly get angry?" I think you are also a generous elder, so you should not vomit over a trivial matter. β
The old man smiled hesitantly, suddenly looked the emperor up and down, and said with some doubts: "Who are you?" Talking crepe? β
After asking, he looked up and down again, and muttered to himself: "Looking at your dress, you don't look like a big person." β
Li Shimin's face remained unchanged, and he replied with a smile: "The younger generation has studied for a few years, but unfortunately the poor family has not been able to persevere, although he has not been able to insist, but he has wished all his life, so he is a little penniless when he speaks, but he called your old man to see the joke." β
"So that's ......" The old man nodded, and suddenly realized: "No wonder you know some reason, and you can endure it when the old man spits on it." β
Seeing that Li Shimin had a good temper, he couldn't help but be very satisfied with this middle-aged post-graduate student, and smiled at the moment, and then explained: "I just spit on your saliva, it's my old man, but the question you just asked is not right, how can you say that this store cheats money?" If there are a few more stores in the world that cheat money like this, my old man will be so happy that he can't sleep, he doesn't have to queue up, and he can buy it if he wants. β
Li Shimin raised his eyes, looking at the shop in front of him becoming more and more crowded, the emperor deliberately pretended to be curious on his face, and asked step by step: "The younger generation heard that this shop is very strange, and the things to buy from it must comply with the screening regulations, and the screening is just that, the key price is still high, not only high, it is simply sky-high, there are bandits in the world who block the road and rob, and they are not as ruthless as this store when they grab money, I think the old man is not a rich person, you must have borrowed a loan from the bank to have the income, since you have borrowed a loan, you should do something useful, Why do you send money here, and queue up here in the cold to buy something? β
"Alas!"
The old man suddenly sighed, looked at the emperor and said, "As soon as you listen to this later life, the old man will know that you are not a farmer, you have never farmed, have you been studying?" β
Li Shimin is less than forty this year, and he is middle-aged in the Tang Dynasty, but there are many middle-aged people in the Tang Dynasty who are still studying behind closed doors, and they are still in their forties and still have their hands in the spring water, this old man has lived for more than sixty years, and he has heard of this kind of thing, so he did not doubt Li Shimin's identity, and only regarded the emperor as a nerd who studied behind closed doors.
Although this misunderstanding is very big, Li Shimin does not expose it.
The emperor took the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, nodded and pretended to be ashamed: "The younger generation wants to be able to get ahead, so he has been working hard all these years, although the family is slightly poor, but he persevers, so he rarely works in the field, and he has indeed never planted a field, but he ......"
The emperor's tone changed suddenly, and he followed closely: "But what is the purpose of what your old man said just now?" Why do you say that the younger generation is a person who has never farmed the land? β
"Hehehehehe!"
The old man suddenly laughed, and actually raised his hand and patted the emperor on the shoulder, not far away a group of disguised hundred horsemen looked shocked, and subconsciously wanted to rush over to make a move, but the leader reacted quickly, and hurriedly whispered: "Be honest, Your Majesty doesn't need our protection." β
The hundred horsemen were stunned at first, and then they all woke up, the emperor was followed by the lord of the Bohai Sea, who in the world could hurt the emperor in front of that fierce man?
The old man naturally couldn't notice the existence of the Baiqi Division, and after patting Li Shimin on the shoulder, he smiled again, which was very kind and said: "I said that you haven't farmed because you have a problem with the problem just now, if you are a farmer, then you know what the farmer wants most, but you don't know what the farmer thinks most, so the old man will say that you have not farmed as soon as he opens his mouth." β
This sounds a bit awkward, and it is true that ordinary people are not as concise as those who read, but it does not prevent others from understanding, and the meaning of the speech can still be expressed clearly.
Li Shimin's eyes glanced at him, as if he wanted to scold Li Yun for snickering, the emperor glared at Li Yun fiercely, turned his head and asked the old man again: "Old man, the junior didn't understand what you just meant." β
In fact, how could the emperor not understand?
The emperor just took the opportunity to continue the clichΓ©.
The old man really didn't notice it, but instead reached out and patted Li Shimin on the shoulder, obviously sincerely posing as an elder, and said to the emperor seriously: "There is only one thing that we farmers are longing for since ancient times, what is it?" It's an output! Our ancestors have been digging in the fields for generations, and there is nothing greater in the world. β
Li Shimin took the opportunity to pretend to be thoughtful, deliberately looked up at the shop in front of him, and said, "The younger generation heard that this store sells grain. β
"That's not food...... the old man's voice suddenly became higher, as if he was very dissatisfied with the emperor's words, and glared: "That's the seed of divine food, the seed given to the world by the gods." β
Li Shimin glanced at Li Yun, turned his head and said to the old man deliberately: "This is not necessarily, after all, no one has ever seen whether the seeds are high or not, saying that it is a god food seed, maybe it is a gimmick of the store?" β
"You, you, you......"
The old man's beard was upturned, and his face was full of anxiety about hating iron and steel, and he stomped his feet again and again: "You are really stupid to read, who would dare to sell it at a high price if it is not divine food?" People who do business pay the most attention to the rules, there is always one to say one and two to say two, forget it, the old man does not fight with you, the old man looks at you and asks, it is clear that he is not a person who wants to buy seeds, where do you go back and forth, how do people who do not farm know the preciousness of grain seeds......"
As he spoke, he seemed to lose his temper again, and waved his hand at Li Shimin again and again, as if to drive away: "Let's go, go far, don't be an eyesore in front of the old man, it makes my old man very angry." β
Poor Emperor Li Shimin was once again made unable to step down.
Li Yun hid behind and smiled evilly, and found that the emperor's face changed solemnly when he turned his head, and he coughed and said: "Second master, let's move our feet, otherwise this old man will start a fire, and we will both have to be slapped." β
Li Shimin glared at him fiercely.
The emperor was kind to the people, but not kind to his nephew, Li Yun was afraid that he would be mad, so he hid in the crowd.
At this time, I suddenly heard the old man laugh, and said very happily: "Finally, it's my turn again...... old man"
In the middle of laughter, he held a wooden sign and tried to step forward, and a small guy at the door of the store glanced at the number on the wooden card, turned sideways and let the old man walk in.
Li Shimin and Li Yun watched the old man's happy back from afar, and the two of them quietly retreated to stand outside the crowd.
After a long time, the emperor whispered, "I seem to understand half of it." β
Li Yun took advantage of the situation and asked, pretending to be curious: "What do you see?" β
Li Shimin glanced at him and snorted coldly: "I understand your intentions, and I have realized why I want to open this shop." Hehe, fairy grain seeds, sky-high grain seeds, really good handiwork......"
Li Yun took a breath lightly, and suddenly said with a solemn face: "Second uncle, you can't blame me for this matter, since ancient times, the people have been loyal and honest, and the court decrees have never dared to disobey, but for the fields and grain, the people have always been cautious. β
"Yes, be careful!" The emperor nodded, and said with emotion: "Even if the knife is on the neck, they will only insist on farming according to the old way, the five grains handed down by the ancestors have been written into the bones of the people, even if they are forced not to plant, they will secretly plant in the ground, the grain of the five grains is life in the hearts of the people, only one person dies on the neck, and the whole family will starve to death if the grain is not planted in the field......"
"Therefore, if you want to promote new grain, you can't use the method of court decrees." Li Yun followed the interface closely, and said in a deep voice: "What has been engraved in the bones for thousands of years cannot be changed by a decree, for this kind of thing in the field, the people will only believe that seeing is believing, but we need to plant new grain next year, and it is impossible to spend a year to build a display field!" β
Li Shimin looked up at the crowded shop and said, "So you let people spread the news and deliberately talk about the gods, and when all the people in the city heard the story of the overseas divine food, you took the opportunity to open such a shop selling divine food." β
Li Yun also looked at the crowded shops, looked at the people with fiery faces, and said: "I used deceptive means, deliberately grasped the weakness of people's hearts, not only set the price of seeds sky-high, but also set various rules when selling, extremely strict, extremely cumbersome, the more strict and cumbersome, the more it can make the people feel confident......
After a pause, he muttered, "They borrowed money from the bank, and immediately ran here with a full heart, and the money went out of my left pocket, and in a blink of an eye it returned to my right pocket, so that between entering and leaving, I did not lose half of a copper plate." And what about these people who are hungry for food? I gave them a future where they could really eat. β
Li Shimin suddenly raised his feet and squeezed into the crowd, and said in a deep voice: "I want to go and see ...... in person."
Li Yun smiled happily and followed, "My nephew also has to see for himself." β
The two of them squeezed into the crowd together and soon arrived at the door of the store.
The shop guy at the door was stunned for a moment, one of them suddenly turned around and walked in a certain direction, Li Shimin glanced at Li Yun, Li Yun hurriedly pointed at the guy's back, the emperor instantly understood the hint, and walked in the direction where the guy went.
Li Yun followed again and followed his buddies.
It turned out that the guy was going to take them through the back door to enter the store, and the front door was absolutely impossible to let the emperor and Li Yun in front of everyone, otherwise the people would definitely be in an uproar, and there might be all kinds of incidents.
After a short period of effort, the two of them had already entered the store, a Tang Emperor and a Bohai prince, and the two of them quietly hid in the corner, silently watching the process of the people buying grain seeds.
