095 old woman ice room read Lao Tzu

The houses in Shangyang Palace are not facing south, there are east and west. The room where Hu Sanniang lives faces east, which is also the so-called west wing. The walls on the east and west sides are thick and high, and the walls on the north and south sides are relatively thin and short, and they are also one foot and two feet high, which is insurmountable by ordinary people.

Hu Sanniang never had the idea of escaping. Because she was unwilling, she always felt that one day, the emperor would change his mind and take her back in style.

A few yellow leaves drifted into the courtyard from a distance, and it was getting colder and colder day by day, and it was already late autumn. There are no trees in all the small courtyards of Shangyang Palace, and I am afraid that the people who are locked up will borrow trees to escape.

Hu Sanniang picked up a yellow leaf, ovate, I don't know what tree fell. Suddenly remembered that the old father asked him to memorize a poem by Fan Wengong (Fan Zhongyan). Casually groaned:

Blue clouds, yellow leaves. The autumn colors are continuous, and the waves are cold and smoky. The mountains reflect the slanting sun and the sky receives water. The grass is ruthless, and it is even more outside the sun. The soul of the dark country, chasing the thoughts. Unless night and night, good dreams leave people to sleep. The bright moon building is high and rests alone. The wine entered the bowels and turned into lovesick tears.

Hu Sanniang had just finished reciting, and there was a sigh, and an old and distant voice chanted-

The ancient palace is sparse, and the palace flowers are lonely and red. The white-headed palace maid is here, sitting idle and talking about Xuanzong.

Hu Sanniang knew that this poem was written by Yuan Zhen, called "Xinggong", and she was particularly shocked after listening to it. It's not the poem itself, it's the old and distant voice, which sounds six points like a woman's voice and four points like a man's voice. Who is this? is also the same as himself, being locked up in the cold palace. When I listened to it again, there was no sound.

The days are getting colder and colder, and Hu Sanniang is worried that she will freeze to death. Suddenly, one day, there was an ambiguous atmosphere in the room, and the wall was warm. It turned out that there was a wall of fire in the house, and it was "offered". There was a leather coat in the old cupboard, it was the kind of old sheepskin jacket, and it didn't matter who wore it, put it on.

Walking outside, although the cold air is very fresh, it is very cold to take a breath. After a punch, he sweated, and simply threw the old sheepskin jacket on the stone table. Pick up the stone basin to exercise strength, one, two, three, three times...... I practiced a hundred times in one go. I sweated, and my body was very refreshing.

Suddenly, the old and distant voice was heard—

Tao begets one life, two begets two, three begets all things; The law of man, the law of the earth, the law of the earth, the law of the sky, the law of the Tao, the law of nature.

Good is like water. Water is good for all things without fighting, and it is evil for everyone, so it is more than the Tao. Dwelling in a good place, having a good heart, being kind and benevolent, being kind and believing, being good in governance, doing good things, and moving in good times. The husband is indisputable, so there is no especially.

If you want to do it, you will fix it. He who wants to be weak will be strong. If you want to abolish it, you will rejuvenate it. He who takes what he wants, he will hold on to it. It's a twilight. Weakness is better than strength. The fish shall not be separated from the abyss, and the sharp weapon of the country shall not be revealed.

Although Hu Sanniang didn't understand everything, she knew that the other party was reciting "Lao Tzu", and her voice was still old, but it was not sad. This time it didn't stop, but kept chanting. Listen to the voice, from the south. Be sure to see what kind of person this neighbor really is.

Hu Sanniang took a few steps back, ran sharply, put her hand on the wall, climbed the second high wall in a few clicks, and squatted on the top of the wall. Look down and see clearly. The old woman, who looked to be around 60 years old, also wore an old sheepskin jacket. While walking, recite "Lao Tzu". There is no book in his hand, and he can see that the "five thousand words" have already been memorized backwards, and he can say any paragraph as he wants.

"Danger!" The old woman saw Hu Sanniang on the wall and wanted to jump down, so she screamed.

"Senior, excuse me!" Hu Sanniang's voice just fell and jumped to the ground, like a needle falling on cotton.

"Concubine Wu De, what a handsome kung fu!"

"How do you know I'm Concubine Wude?"

"I also know that you are Liangshan's 'good girl' - Hu Sanniang."

Hu Sanniang was dumbfounded and speechless for a long time.

The old woman smiled and said, "I'll count it!" - Actually, you told me it yourself. When you first came in, you made a lot of noise and said everything. ”

Hu Sanniang suddenly realized that the wall has ears.

The old woman let Hu Sanniang into the house, which was as cold as the outside, like an ice room. It looks similar to the room where I live, except that there is an extra bookshelf next to the bed, on which dozens of books stand, including "Lao Tzu".

"Why are you here?" Hu Sanniang asked curiously.

"Children don't have mothers, and they talk long." The old woman said with a smile, "My name is Shui Longyin, and I entered the palace in the first year of Xining (1068), when I was 16 years old. In the early years of Yuanfeng (1078), she was named a noble concubine. Later, due to the failure of the struggle to be the queen, Yuanfeng was beaten into the cold palace in the third year (1080......"

"So my predecessors have been here for 40 years!"

"And that's not all, 40 years and 88 days. You see the path drawn on my wall, every day when the sun is light, I draw one, you can count how many days I stayed. ”

"It should be 14,688 days."

"10 days less."

"How can it be 10 days less?"

"There are 10 leap years."

"Oh! Senior, how have you come through these 40 years? ”

"I'm coming day by day."

Hu Sanniang let out a long sigh.

"Nothing to sigh about. I have lived to be 71 years old, and I have sent away two emperors, countless empresses and concubines, and my body is still strong, and it is estimated that I can live for ten or eight years. Shui Long Yin said optimistically.

"How do you spend time one day at a time?"

"The main thing is to read "Lao Tzu", and the other is to exercise."

"Isn't there a chance to get out?"

"Twice. Once because I was young and vigorous, I had to admit my mistake, but I felt that I was not wrong, but I didn't admit it; Again, I'm in my 50s, and there's no point in going out again, I'm used to being here. A person is free, there is no intrigue, and no one wants to kill you. I don't have any children, what are I going out for? ”

Hu Sanniang nodded, smiled and said, "Senior, this time I'm here, I'll talk to you......"

Shui Long Yin waved his hand again and again, and said, "You are still young, and you know kung fu, go out early, you have a lot to do!" It's not like I'm old. Zhao Ji's child, I still know a little, and he is very kind-hearted. Say a few soft words and he'll let you out. ”

Hu Sanniang straightened up, walked to the bookshelf to read the book and said, "There are so many books!" ”

Shui Long Yin stood aside, sighed lightly and said, "I like to read, and the books here are not even one percent." ”

"Lend me a copy of Lao Tzu and take a look!"

"Your current age is not suitable for watching "Lao Tzu"."

"What am I used to see?"

"Watch 'Sun Tzu'."

"My son is dead, how can there be a grandson?" Hu Sanniang's eyes were red.

"I'm not talking about that grandson, I'm talking about "The Art of War." Shui Long Yin said solemnly, "Don't look at your kung fu, it's just one enemy, and after reading "The Art of War", you can learn ten thousand enemies." Women should use wisdom and less force, otherwise they will always suffer losses! ”

Hu Sanniang took "The Art of War" and walked out of the house, floating over the wall.
