At this time, Zhou Keming asked thoughtfully: "Grandpa!" My grandson knows what you mean by telling this allusion. However, you have always told us that we should rather bend than bend, have backbone, and stick to it as long as it is right, and never go with the flow. ”

"And now you want us to bow our heads in the face of right and wrong, and learn to compromise and seek perfection, don't you overturn the principles of life for decades? Grandfather! My grandson really doesn't understand! ”

Zhou Jie shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "The goodness in the Tao Te Ching is like water, and you must also understand the indisputable ideal of benefiting all things." We all know that water is the most supple, it always exists in the most suitable place, and when it encounters obstacles, it will bypass it, and will not stop to fight with it, so that it can flow for a long time without stopping. ”

But there's another meaning that you don't know. Water is the most supple, but if it bypasses the obstacles, once it gathers, it will be the most terrifying force in the world. It's like a stormy sea on the sea, which can easily overturn a huge ship; Or like a flood that causes a levee to burst, the boulders, trees, houses, and fields are as small as dust in its eyes, and its power is displayed everywhere. ”

"If it is given enough time, it can round the angular stones, and transport huge quantities of sand and gravel to where its power can reach, even the power of water droplets is infinite, and even the hardest stones can be pierced by it."

"There are no absolutes in the world, just like I told you before, how to do it? How? It all depends on the environment at the time, if there is a disparity in strength and it is not in place, the most important thing is to compromise, or even retreat. ”

"We are not doing this rashly changing our old principles, but we are retracting our fists in order to accumulate enough strength. Well! I've said so much, you should have some feelings! ”

While deeply admiring himself, Li Yi happily worshipped: "Thank you for Ah Weng's teachings, the younger generation understands." ”

Zhou Jie nodded to Li Yi, but the look in his eyes was quite complicated, and he sighed for a long time and said, "Alas! The old man is tired, go by yourself! ”

Li Yi hurriedly withdrew with Zhou Keming, only to find that it was already past noon.

Bidding farewell to Zhou Keming, under the pretext of wanting to go shopping, he refused his kindness in arranging a carriage to send him off, Li Yi left Renjingfang alone and walked towards his home two streets away from the north.

As soon as he walked to the intersection of Xing'an South Street, a carriage suddenly stopped beside Li Yi. Li Yi raised his head in surprise, but saw that the curtain of the carriage had been lifted, and a face with a clear face and a gray beard came into his eyes.

"Runzhi, why are you walking here alone?"

At this time, Li Yi had already seen the appearance of this old man clearly, isn't this the Zhongshu squire Wang Dingbao that Zhou Jie just mentioned?

Li Yi hurriedly bowed deeply and said: "The king is above, and he is bowed by the lower officials." ”

Wang Dingbao scolded with a smile: "Okay, you Li Yi, there are really a lot of stinky rules, hurry up to the car!" ”

Li Yi smiled and hurriedly got into the carriage.

Wang Dingbao was the only one in the car, and he first instructed the coachman to detour Xing'an Street and circle around Xing'an Fang, and then said to Li Yi with a smile: "I just came back from Old Man Ni's house, and I saw you walking on the street by yourself. Hehe! Where does this come from? ”

Li Yi hurriedly replied with a smile: "Early in the morning, the old man of the Keming family summoned me to go and chat, didn't I just come out of their house?" ”

Wang Dingbao was stunned for a moment and said, "The old man of the Keming family? Oh! It turned out to be Mr. Zhou, he is the eldest birthday star in our court! Hehe! But I don't know what to talk about between you, have you been studying the stars all along? ”

Li Yi smiled, and said in his heart that the stars and signs were nothing, even the Tao Te Ching, the Great Han Nianzuo have been studied, and even the old things from decades ago have been revealed. It's just that there are some things that can't be said explicitly, even Wang Dingbao, who has always had a good impression of himself.

Li Yi nodded and said: "Old Man Zhou invited me to be a guest, but I think that Keming and I have a similar temperament, and have a good impression of me, and I also said some astrological rules or something, I don't understand it very well, so I can only use my ears, but my mouth has been idle, hehe!" ”

Wang Dingbao smiled and said, "Hehe! Although you are the champion of our Han Dynasty, if you talk about astrological signs and the like, I am afraid that there will be a big gap between you and Old Man Zhou. ”

After Li Yi nodded yes, he said apologetically: "I have been back in Beijing for nearly a month, but I have not gone to see Wang Xiang, and I ask Wang Xiang to forgive me!" ”

Wang Dingbao smiled meaningfully: "The old man hasn't complained about you yet, but you apologize yourself, hehe!" It's okay if you didn't go to my house, some people in the province suspect that we are getting too close, if I guess correctly, I'm afraid you think so too, right? ”

"Alas! Since the old man was recalled to the capital by the emperor, he often feels powerless, and I am afraid that his days are numbered. You young people must make some achievements as soon as possible, so that you can calmly take over my burden, and I will also learn from Yang Laoguo to take care of your old age. Hehe! ”

Li Yi's heart tightened, yes! According to the book of the Southern Han Dynasty, Wang Dingbao is afraid that his life limit is approaching, although he doesn't know the specific time, it is probably the last two years.

While Li Yi felt sorry for him, he also clearly realized that if he left like this, he would lose his most powerful support in the court.

At present, although Liu Yan admires and values himself very much, with his moody personality, he may turn his face at any time. At a critical time, these important ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee are really here!

Thinking of this, Li Yi said sincerely: "Wang Xiang must take care of his body, regulate his emotions, and must not be hurt by external objects, and if there is anything unhappy, he can put it aside for the time being, otherwise, how can he have the energy and physical strength to take care of the busy affairs of the court?" ”

Wang Dingbao shook his head and sighed: "Alas! What Runzhi said is only half right! The old man's mood is indeed not much better now. Since I served as the squire of this Laoshzi, I have hardly lived a single day, and I have spent all day in anxiety. ”

"Alas! Unexpectedly, the old man Kurama never surrendered lightly in his life, and he broke through in the bushes of ten thousand horses, and rolled in the pile of dead people, but he was unexpectedly powerless everywhere in this position, and he was really aggrieved! Alas! So, now there are some tangled affairs, I just put them on the shelf, hehe! Isn't it true that the Tao is different? ”
