Chapter XVII Meetings
Liu Luye asked the kitchen to cook a lot of dishes, all of which were famous dishes in Guangling City. There are eight treasure gourds, grilled pig's head, colorful butterflies flying, pipa prawns, chrysanthemum conch and so on. The long-lost taste made Dong Zhongshu very happy.
Eat well, Dong Zhongshu is a little regretful that the owner did not come to have dinner with them. How do you eat with a veil when you eat? Will it be taken down for dinner? What if you take it off and get a glimpse of her?
"Teacher, I haven't drunk this rice wine for many years, how is the rice wine?"
When Dong Zhongshu was wandering, Wang Xinru suddenly asked, which made Dong Zhongshu stunned for a moment. I didn't expect that I would also have a time when I was distracted.
"Not bad, not bad. This willow owner is really very welcoming. Remember, you must remember that we will be grateful to the owner of the village when the time comes. She doesn't have any requirements, as long as I give them a lesson, you can arrange it when the time comes. But don't advertise it, I've never taught women. ”
Dong Zhongshu didn't expect that there would be women who invited him to class.
Wang Xinru immediately responded, it must be arranged, and at the same time shouted: "Pure baby, where is it?" Come and make us tea. ”
Chun Yu Ying waited in the house, waiting for Dr. Dong and them to come back and serve them.
"Yes, I'll be right here."
Pure Yu Ying answered the road and walked quickly towards the living room. The voice of the pure baby is soft and gentle, and it sounds very pleasant. She is a tea girl, wearing a robe, the close-fitting clothes outline her energetic figure, she walked to the coffee table as light as a dragonfly, and her slender fingers played with the tea set, which made people dazzled. Several pairs of eyes were watching her perform, and their spirits were uplifted; Especially Lu Bushu, he couldn't take his eyes off it......
When Azhu found Lu Bushu's embarrassment, he coughed, suggesting that he was making a fool of himself. But Lu Bushu was too focused and didn't realize that it was Ah Zhu under the coffee table and kicked Lu Bushu before he reacted. His face flushed, and he was really embarrassed.
Of course, Teacher Dong Zhongshu Dong will not be messed up by a good-looking little girl. He saw that the situation was not right, so he arranged and said: "Tea girl, you can make us three cups, we will have a meeting after three cups, it is a little inconvenient, you leave for a while." ”
"Yes, Dr. Dong." Pure infant responded softly, and at the same time, the right hand turned slightly, as graceful as a willow swaying in the wind, and the small teacup somehow turned in front of Dong Zhongshu at once.
"Dr. Dong, please, tea."
On the occasion of Dr. Dong's tea, Chun Yuying introduced Wuyi tea.
Wuyi tea is an oolong tea with the characteristics of rock rhyme quality. Produced in the Wuyi Mountain area of "Xiujia Southeast" in northern Fujian, Fujian Province, tea trees grow in rock crevices. Wuyi rock tea has the fragrance of green tea and the sweetness of black tea, which is the best in my Han oolong tea. Wuyi rock tea is a semi-fermented green tea, and the production method is between green tea and black tea.
The morphological characteristics of Wuyi tea: the leaf end is twisted, like a dragonfly head, and the color is iron and green with brown oil. The inner quality is lively, sweet, clear and fragrant. There is a distinct scent of rock bone flowers......
At the same time as the tea girl introduced Wuyi tea, she also said: "Drinking tea is not only a material enjoyment, entering a higher level of tea drinking, is a kind of spiritual enjoyment and moral norms, tea ceremony is also blended with Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhist philosophical thoughts, and gradually make people enter their spiritual realm." It is also the best way to make friends and exchange feelings......"
Dr. Dong drank a big cup of tea in Chang'an, where is there such a truth as the tea girl said. However, what the tea girl told Dong Zhongshu was a new revelation, this drinking kung fu tea is still a way to communicate feelings! He has just arrived in Jiangdu, and he has to learn to drink this small cup of tea, drink this kung fu tea, and make friends with the people here to exchange emotions.
After drinking three cups of tea, the meeting headed by Dong Guoxiang was held in the Green Leaf Tea House.
This is Dong Zhongshu's exercise of his functions and powers as minister of state since he entered Jiangdu, and began to study how he works as minister of state.
As soon as Azhu heard that they were going to have a meeting, he ran away. He cooks, drives carriages, runs errands, and has nothing to do with meetings.
"Azhu, what are you doing?" Dong Zhongshu saw that Ah Zhu was gone and stopped him.
"Master, you have a meeting, it's inconvenient for me to sit here, right?" Azhu, who stopped, still has a reason.
Dong Zhongshu called Azhu and asked him to continue to sit down, and he also wanted to attend the meeting.
Ah Zhu was puzzled, looked at Dong Zhongshu, pointed to his nose, and asked suspiciously, "I also want to participate?" ”
"You're deaf and didn't hear the teacher say?" Lu Bushu and Ah Zhu love to fight, first suppress Ah Zhu and then talk.
Dong Zhongshu didn't say anything more, and pointed to Azhu's original position and asked him to sit down. Seeing the master's movements, he really wanted him to attend the meeting, so he sat down with a smile and waited for the master's next words.
When Azhu sat down, Dong Zhongshu said: "From now on, we are a group, a group that does things for the Minister of Jiangdu. We're going to talk about it now, what would you do if you were to be the prime minister? Think about it for a moment, then talk about them one by one. ”
As soon as Dong Zhongshu finished speaking, Ah Zhu had an opinion: "Master, you let me drive horses and run errands, cook and laundry, don't let me be the prime minister, where am I that material?" Spare me. ”
"Master Zhu, don't interrupt, everyone is thinking, and you think the same. Isn't it just that if you become the prime minister of the country, what do you have to do to be worthy of the emperor and the people of Jiangdu, don't you think about it? Lu Bushu corrected Azhu again.
Under the guidance of Lu Bushu, Azhu really thought about it.
As a result, the whole house was silent, and if a needle fell on the ground, it could be heard.
A few people sat quietly for a while, and Dong Zhongshu spoke again: "Okay, let's talk about them one by one?" Who comes first? ”
No one was too embarrassed to be the first to come.
Dong Zhongshu saw that no one dared to say it first, so he called Ah Zhu's name: "Ah Zhu, come first." ”
Lu Bushu said that if he assumed that he would return to the country as soon as he returned to the country, he would assume that he would return to the country: "If I become the minister of state, the first thing is to defeat the arrogance and domineering of the king Liu Fei and establish the prestige of our country's prime minister; Then clean up some ineffective officials, and use a group of obedient officials who have the ability to work and are willing to do things for the people; Let's do some practical things for the people...... But sir, you are a scholar, I am afraid it will be difficult to defeat the domineering spirit of the king Liu Fei. Okay, that's all I have to say. ”
After Dong Zhongshu heard this, he nodded and stroked his long beard, feeling very satisfied.
Lu Bushu was a little surprised: "I said Master Azhu, you don't drive the carriage at first glance, and you are still one set when you are the prime minister." It's a big deal to let you drive the carriage. ”
Ah Zhu was a little embarrassed, laughed a few more times, and changed the subject: "I said it, it's time for you to say it." You are educated, you are all proud disciples of the master, and you will definitely be able to come up with good ideas for the master. ”
Seeing that Azhu has said it, Lu Bushu is not polite, he is about to express his opinion.
Lu Bushu said politely: "Teacher, why don't I come here?" ”
With the consent of Dong Zhongshu, Lu Bushu said: "If I come to be the minister of Jiangdu, I will take the heinous Liu Jian as a breakthrough according to the reality of Jiangduguo, find out the facts of Liu Jian's crime, bring him to justice, and give an explanation to the people of Jiangdu." defeated Liu Jian, and virtually established the prestige of the prime minister. With prestige, let's see what the people of Jiangdu have to do, and then do practical and good things for the people one by one. ”
Although Lu Bushu is a student of Dong Zhongshu, he is very focused on the study of the law, and he likes to use a 'law' to consider everything. So the first thing I thought of was to bring Liu Jian to justice. It is precisely because Lu Bushu has studied the law that when he later punished Liu An, the king of Huainan, the emperor sent him as a long history, and Zhang Tang, the court captain, to govern Huainan Prison, dismissed Liu An, the king of Huainan, from his post, punished a group of followers, and quelled a riot. Dealing with this case, as a classic, records the annals of history. An example of justice for posterity.
At this point, it stopped, and there was no follow-up. Dong Zhongshu thought that Lu Bushu hadn't finished speaking, so he was waiting for him to follow, and after waiting for a while, he didn't see Lu Bushu speak, so Dong Zhongshu asked, "No?" ”
"Nope." Lu Bushu is good to talk about the key points of this kind of thing, but he can't be specific, it's too specific, and he wants to talk about the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Month?
"It's good to be concise and to the point. Okay, then you can finally believe in Confucianism, right? ”
There is little contact with Wang Xinru, and Dong Zhongshu is very polite to him.
Wang Xinru is a serious person, and he has just seriously thought about how to be a good minister of state in Jiangdu.
At this time, Wang Xinru had nothing to hide, and immediately took the teacher's words and said: "If I come to be the minister of state, my first step is to understand the national situation and then make a plan." The second step is how to implement your plan. In Jiangdu State, although the king does not participate in politics now, the situation in Jiangdu is special, and Liu Fei, the king of Jiangdu, has been the king for more than 20 years, so the current power is still in his hands, and the officials of the Prime Minister's Office have not disobeyed him. It is particularly important to come here to be the minister of state and handle the relationship with the king well. The officials of Jiangdu State have always been managed by the king, and there are no rules. The teacher is a Confucian master, and he should have a set of management methods that are different from those of the king, so that the officials can consciously do things for the people and dare not engage in favoritism. If the team of officials is built well, the work will be easier to do......"
Several people talked about the idea of how to be a good minister of state, and after listening to it, Dong Zhongshu thought carefully for a while before making a concluding speech.
"Your views are good, and I will definitely consider them seriously. From what you have said, I have decided what we are going to do in the next few days. We did not enter the Prime Minister's Mansion first, but went to the people separately to conduct private interviews and obtain first-hand information. What we need to understand is, what do the officials of the royal palace and the prime minister's office do to the people now? What difficulties do the people have that need to be solved? Are there any big and important cases that have not been solved...... Tomorrow after breakfast, we will go our separate ways. But pay attention to secrecy, don't let the owner know that it is the minister of state, and Azhu also wants to find out about someone in Jiangdu looking for a sword......"
