313 The wind and the moon are boundless and unsolvable

Wanyan Xiyin is a very powerful figure in the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Sheng relies on him very much, and Wenchen ranks first. The first genius of Dajin Country, he can speak several foreign languages. Chinese, Khitan, Dali and so on are all proficient. His Chinese proficiency is stronger than Zhao Huan, but he is still 108,000 miles behind Zhao Ji.

Recently, Wanyan Xiyin became obsessed with the thin gold body, and the thin gold body written by Zhao Ji on the table, as long as the emperor read it, he took it and pondered it while practicing. He didn't just practice calligraphy, because he encountered problems in the creation of characters, and he wanted to further improve the "Jurchen small characters" so that they could compete with Chinese characters.

Wanyan Xiyin is ambitious, but he can get stuck in key places. This kid loves to learn very much, and took the initiative to ask Zhao Ji for advice. Zhao Ji is fine, he is a good teacher, and he is very happy to see the prime minister of Jin Guo asking him for advice, and he is very willing to teach him.

Students have to be like students, they can't be arrogant, more often than not, Wanyan Xiyin comes to Zhao Ji here to ask for advice.

The place where Zhao Ji lives in the capital of Jin is quite large. It's a separate courtyard, about the size of a football field. It is divided into a front and back yard, the front yard is inhabited, and the back yard is a small garden with a pool and a rockery. Of course, everything here is not the same as the imperial palace or Genyue in Bianliang City.

Wanyan Xiyin and Zhao Ji met, mostly in the small garden in the backyard. There is also a small pavilion here, called Yiran Pavilion. The two sat on a stone bench in the pavilion and talked.

"Daojun, you Han people are weaker, but you are still very smart!" Wanyan Xiyin said it very sincerely, and there was no sarcasm.

"Yes. In terms of martial arts, we Han people are indeed inferior to you Jurchens; Papers, indeed, are stronger. Xiangye, for example, the word smart you just mentioned is not ordinary! How can one become smart? This word cleverness, when our ancestors made words, it was confiscated to reflect the wisdom and intelligence. That is: the ears should always hear, the eyes should always see, the mouth should always speak, the heart should always think, and the sun and the moon should persevere. - and get smart! "Zhao Ji is really the first to talk about Chinese characters.

Wanyan Xiyin listened while drawing on his hand, nodded and said, "Sinology is really broad and profound!" It's just that this Chinese character is too complicated to write! ”

"It's not difficult, it's not difficult. Actually, Chinese characters are particularly regular. ”

"I've been studying Chinese characters for seven or eight years, but I really haven't found a pattern? That is, to make poems and fill in the lyrics, pay attention to rhyme and rhyme. - It's just a small insect carving skill. ”

When Zhao Ji heard this, he was a little unhappy, of course, he couldn't be angry, but he still had to teach him a lesson.

"It's not a small skill of carving insects, it's a dragon carving in Wenxin! The greatness of Chinese characters is mainly in the creation of characters, not to mention that after seven or eight years of study, even if you have studied for seventy or eighty years, you may not be able to understand them all. Let's take the simplest word 'one'-" Zhao Ji said in a long voice.

"The word 'one' is a horizontal, is there anything more particular?" Wanyan Xiyin was indeed a little unconvinced.

Zhao Ji stood up and said as he moved-

Smooth sailing, a table of talents, one step to the sky, a string of pearls...... There are so many idioms with one word in Chinese!

Xu Shen said: One, only the beginning of the beginning, the Tao stands in one, creates heaven and earth, and turns into all things.

Lao Tzu said: Tao gives birth to one, one life, two births, three births, and all things.

One is extremely simple, but it is also extremely complex, it is said to be simple because it is horizontal, and it is said to be complex because it is unpredictable.

There is a talent who is a gentleman for a son who is not a member. The staff is not very particular, and they always owe wages, and until the Chinese New Year, the expenses of Xiucai have not been settled. Xiucai wrote a couplet on his broken door.

Uplink: two, three, four, five; Allied; Six, seven, eight, nine.

The staff led his son to Mr. New Year's greetings. The staff shook their heads after looking at them for a long time, and asked, "Sir, what do you mean by this pair?" But his son was clever and said, "This is not simple—lack of clothing (1) and food (10)." The staff was ashamed and quickly made up for the poor wages. Mr.'s method of asking for wages is novel and unique, which is commendable.

Husband war, courage also. One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion. This is true not only for wars, but also for many things......

Zhao Ji spoke eloquently, and Wanyan Xiyin nodded from time to time. I "asked" a few more questions, all of which were easily resolved one by one.

Wanyan Xiyin also stood up, and suddenly found that on a stone in the rockery were written two thin gold calligraphy: worm two. ——(Actually, it's an extra word for insects)

"This must be Daojun's handiwork?" Wanyan Xiyin asked curiously.

"Yes." Zhao Ji nodded proudly.

"There must be a deep meaning!"

"I can't talk about the deep meaning, it's a little meaning, it's a kind of wordplay—"

"Daojun doesn't have to say it, let me think about it."

Wanyan Xiyin walked over, stood in front of the stone, thought for a long time, nodded for a while, and shook his head for a while. After a long time, he turned around and said, "I understand." ”

"Listen up." Zhao Ji smiled slightly.

"There is a special medicinal herb produced in Western Xia, which is called Cordyceps in Chinese. Cordyceps - summer grass, insects in winter, grass in summer; It is grass in summer and insects in winter. ”

"The Prime Minister's explanation is a bit interesting!"

"I have Cordyceps sinensis paid tribute by the Tangut people there, which strengthens yin and replenishes yang, if Daojun needs it, I can give you some."

"Prime Minister, thank you in advance. As far as I know, Cordyceps sinensis is the best quality for the brain. ”

Zhao Ji didn't dare to say it, that means your brain is not enough, so you should keep it to make up for it.

Four Jurchens came in through a corner gate in the flower courtyard and carried them up to the pavilion with food and drink. The meal was quickly set up and a jug of wine.

"It's a nice day outside, let's eat dinner in the pavilion!" Wanyan Xiyin said politely.

"Thank you for the feast!" Zhao Ji also said politely.

The two talked while eating, which was still very speculative. Wanyan Xiyin admires Zhao Ji's talent; Zhao Ji admired Yan Xiyin's modesty and studiousness.

The moon came out, not only the moon of the Great Song Dynasty was round, but the moon of Dajin was also very round around the fifteenth day. No matter where it is, it is the fifteenth moon and sixteenth round.

"When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky......" Wanyan Xiyin couldn't help but recite it, "Daojun, I like this Mid-Autumn Festival poem by your Master Su the most." ”

"I also like it very much, as soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival words come out on Dongpo, the rest of the words are wasted."

When they had almost drunk, they both stood up and came to the stone again.

"Daojun, you don't mean Cordyceps, what do you mean?" Wanyan Xiyin asked seriously.

"Prime Minister, look at how beautiful the scenery here is!" Zhao Ji sighed, "You see, this lotus pond, although it can't be said that 'the lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are different red', it is also a bit distinctive." Look at this rockery again, and then look at this Yiran Pavilion. Let's go to this station, the breeze is coming, the fragrance of flowers is fragrant, the moon is empty, and the heart is relaxed. The best annotation has been made for these two incomplete words: 風-月-无-edge.

"Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years! - Goodbye. After Yan Xiyin finished speaking, he left in a hurry, through the conversation with Zhao Ji, he was greatly inspired, and he didn't sleep all night, and Jin Wen's reform was successful.

Zheng Xin waited for a long time before her husband returned to the bedroom, hurriedly greeted her, and asked urgently: "Wanyan Xiyin is not difficult for you, right?" ”

Zhao Ji smiled slightly and said, "Is he embarrassed for me? Not at all, he asked me for advice. ”

"I heard that Wanyan Xiyin's sinology is very powerful!"

"Far away, far away! Even if Yan Xiyin is smart, he is just a golden monkey, and the other Jurchens are big bad wolves. ”

Zhao Ji slept very well that night, and he didn't even dream.
