Chapter 12 Who Am I?

Since human beings have entered a civilized society, the status of women has gradually declined in most regions, and in this era of China, it is already an absolute patriarchal society - naturally, compared with the Southern Song Dynasty, the era when science was prevalent, it is still much stronger. ~with~dream~small~say~щ~suimеng~lā

Women in this era were basically regarded as just reproductive tools for the next generation, and at best they were also the nannies and first educators of the heirs. Therefore, the aesthetics of women also revolve around childbirth. Because women with larger pelvis are less prone to dystocia, the buttocks are heavy and wide but not heavy; As for the breasts, although the mammary glands are abundant and convenient for breastfeeding, how many of the real noble women are breastfeeding themselves? Usually a few nannies are hired to do the OEM, so gradually, the airport has become an aristocratic demeanor.

Not everyone is born with an A cup, but it can be wrapped. Therefore, the aesthetic standards of aristocratic women in these years (at least in the Jiangdong region) are shaved shoulders, thin waists, wide buttocks and poor breasts - the first two are acceptable, and for the latter two points, Pei Caike really can't bear it. In addition, these boudoir ladies are all painted with white powder and heavy makeup, and they basically can't see their original appearances, so it is really more difficult for Pei to find a barely right eye from it......

So he felt that he was a complete waste of time...... Forget it, just take it as an ordinary distraction.

The servant served the wine and appetizing vegetables and fruits, Ji You took the lead, first picked up the wine glass to give a speech, Pei Gai took a sip, and couldn't help but praise: "It is indeed a good wine, gentle and mellow, with a long aftertaste." Ji You said proudly: "This is my family's new brew this spring, if Pei Jun likes it, he will send someone to send a few cars to the house." ”

Pei Cai waved his hand and said that there was no need - "I was not familiar in many places last year, and there are many people from the south, it is said that there are starving people in Jianye City, and I don't want your family to have surplus grain to make wine." ”

He originally saw that these southern nobles were not diligent, and they all snorted and gasped when they climbed a mountain—but they walked up along the mountain road, and they inevitably felt some contempt, so he wanted to sarcastically say a word to Ji You, but who thought that the other party didn't care, but laughed: "Our family has a lot of good land, even if it is a bad year, the surplus grain is enough to make wine." As he spoke, he raised his thumb and pointed behind him: "Even if all the people in this city are starving to death, my family will not have to worry about food." ”

When Pei Gai heard this, his anger couldn't help but rise.

was about to shoot the case and scold, so I heard Gu Zhi say with a smile: "My family has little food, please give some relief." The remnants often chimed in. Pei should be very angry, but the corners of his mouth twitched, and he suppressed the fire in his heart - you said that I, a person who cursed Shile in person, came to Jiangnan to be angry with a group of juniors who couldn't leave their names in the history books, isn't that too much of a fall? Forget it, forget it, this wine is good, I'll drink a few more glasses and go down the mountain - such a heartless person will be punished sooner or later!

So he bowed his head and drank, and did not mix in the conversation of others. Talking and talking, led by He Yu, everyone encouraged Wei Jue to talk about metaphysics, and Wei Jue got what he did - in terms of family background, except for Pei Gai, he is taller than everyone here, but the problem is that if he lives in Jiangnan, even if he can't talk about sending people under the fence, he always has a sense of grievance, and his family wealth is obviously much worse than Gu Zhi, who is not afraid of starvation to death in the city...... The only strength is in talking about Xuan.

At the moment, calm down the mood and start talking. His voice was not high, causing many of the women at the table next to him to come closer, covering half of their faces with their sleeves, and listening to them as if they were drunk—maybe they were drunk with Wei Shubao's handsome face. Jiangnan Hondo literary masters, such as "Erlu", but metaphysics is poor-the "sound of the beginning" of the source of Qing talk originally came from Cao Wei - so not only can no one refute Wei Jue, even if there are few sentences or two. Wei Shubao is simply singing a one-legged show.

Wei Jue was also very proud of this, the more he talked, the happier he became, although his face was flushed and his breath was a little uncomfortable, but his spirit was absolutely excited. As he spoke, he casually glanced at Pei Gai next to him, and saw Pei Wenyue holding a wine glass with one hand and sticking out his index finger with the other, as if he wanted to dip the floating dust or flying insects on the wine, his face was sinking like water, and he didn't know what he was thinking. So he took a breath, then turned his head and asked, "Wen Yue thinks, what do I say?" ”

After asking twice, Pei Gai reacted and smiled politely: "Good words, good words." "Obviously I wasn't listening at all. Wei Jue was a little unhappy, so he immediately asked: "Ling Xianzun once wrote "The Theory of Chongyou", which is noble and light, which is different from the theme of the world, and is also very different from what I said. ”

Pei Gai glanced at him, what did it mean: Sick? I'm hiring you?

————————

Pei should come to the Zhoushan Mountain, originally thought that this Jiangnan family would talk about poetry, although he knew that he had no literary talent, but I remember a lot of poetry in later generations, and I used it to change my appearance, even if there are no three points of essence left, it will not fall, right? There is no Lu Ji, Lu Yun (all of them have been hung up), and there is no Tao Yuanming (who should not have been born yet), so what is so terrible about other poets who are not in the stream?

So he followed Wei Jue frankly, but he didn't expect that Wei Jue would start to talk about Xuan ...... Don't look at Pei's family history, after all, he is still in Chongling, and his father will hang up, although his father's "Chongyou Theory" has been forced to memorize since he was a child, and he has the inner meaning, but who should he ask for advice? His poetry lacks spirituality, and as for metaphysics, he has not entered the school at all.

So Wei Jue's tirade, he basically didn't understand it - it is estimated that others may not be able to get any better - and then he simply didn't listen to it and thought about his own thoughts. Unexpectedly, Wei Shubao actually asked him, do you think Chongyou and Chongwu, "Which is it, which is not"? Pei Gai was angry on the spot, and said that if I don't talk about it, it proves that I am not interested in it, why do you want to ask? I can be perfunctory in other things, and follow your words, only this is the only one, which is categorically impossible to give in - Daddy wrote "Chongyou Theory", and it is not good for his son to stand on the opposite side of Chongwu, right? Unless there is really enough research to be done. Then as soon as I say that I advocate Chongyou, I am the opposite of you, you must ask the reason, right? Where can I answer?!

Uncle Wei, I don't have anything to do with you, why do you want to hurt me?

In fact, he thought about it a lot, although Wei Jue was highly educated, after all, he was still young, and young people would inevitably have a competitive heart, and he couldn't wait to get up Pei Yu underground and debate the issue of whether there was a debate with this senior. Fortunately, although Pei Yan is hanging, isn't his son right in front of me? You can always get three points of his father's true biography...

As for how old Pei should be when Pei Yi died, Wei Jue didn't think about it at all...... Maybe I don't care if I think about it - I started studying metaphysics at the age of seven or eight, I don't have a good father like you, and when my father and ancestor were killed, I was only six years old......

So although he was a little annoyed that Pei Gai didn't listen carefully, he really didn't want to embarrass Pei Gai, but felt: You don't think much of what I said, but because of politeness, it's inconvenient to refute it, right? It doesn't matter, I'll give you a chance to talk about it, it's rare to have such a suitable place, and the reason is not clear.

Although Pei Gai is angry, but in this public, he can't finish Wei Jue with an old fist - besides, Wei Shubao can't help but fight at all, even if Pei Gai's force value is not high, it is estimated that three or two punches can kill people - he was stunned for a moment, and had to reply perfunctorily: "I don't want to change my father's will." "You understand, I said "unwilling", purely for filial piety, you can stop asking.

Who wants to show the blind man, Wei Jue didn't understand the implied meaning of his words at all, and was still asking, not only that, but Gu Zhi, Ji You and others next to him also coaxed, saying that they were willing to listen to the "lofty theory". Pei should be forced to have no choice, so he had to put down the wine glass in his hand, muttered for a while, and then asked Wei Jue first: "Excuse me, what is nothing?" ”

Wei Jue said that I have been talking about "nothing" for most of the day just now, okay, since you asked, then I will summarize it again - "None, the avenue of heaven and earth is also." Therefore, Lao Ziyun: 'Nameless, the beginning of heaven and earth; Famous, the mother of all things. Therefore, there is always nothing, and I want to see its wonders; Often, I want to see it. 'It is to know that there is nothing first, so there is no noble and cheap, and there is no nobility but lightness. ”

Pei Caixin said very good, if you don't erect a target to come out, I don't have a target, since this target has been erected, I am the best at messing around. Immediately smiled: ""Historical Records: The First Emperor Benji" cloud: 'In ancient times, there were emperors, there were emperors, there were emperors of Thailand, and the emperor of Thailand was the most expensive. 'How do you know that the latter is not as good as the first?' "I admit that there is no first, and there is no second, but you can't judge the high and the low by the order.

When Wei Jue heard this, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, but he reacted quickly, and immediately retorted: "The purpose of metaphysics is to study the principles of heaven and man, which is the foundation, that is, no matter whether it is noble or low, but there is nothing first, and if you want to oppose its origin, it should be worshiped and light." ”

Pei Gai retorted: "Does Lao Ziyun have 'the same name for the two, and the same name for the mystery', I don't say that I worship one and despise the other. And there is something out, when there is a foundation before there is nothing, if the purpose of the Xuan, not its original, and empty talk about whether there is, can it? ”

He is arguing with the meaning of the text here, but he has indeed made a gap, no one has studied it before, is there anything to come up with? What was the earliest universe like? Is there any trick before nothing? So Wei Jue was stupid at the time, and he was stunned for a long time before he finally asked, "Teachable." However, the text agrees, what is the first thing to have? ”

He did ask for advice sincerely, but who would have thought that Pei should drop a spear and run away again - "I don't know, but I know that you can't take it lightly because there is nothing first, that is, worship nothing." I know that Shubao has no cheap and noble things, and there is no light existence, and they are all buildings in the air, which is difficult to reason. Without waiting for Wei Jue to refute, he continued to talk eloquently: "Let's go back to its roots, why did my father worship it?" For there is something knowable, and there is nothing unknowable, something that cannot be known, how can it be named, how can it be said? Therefore, only what can be worshipped, not what is not worshipped. ”

Wei Jue pursed his lips: "Who is unknowable?" Spread your hands: "Nothing is the way of nature, there is the reason of all things, there is nothing and there is life, there is ...... Tao and there is reason."

Pei should interrupt him: "Oh, it turns out that Shubao has already studied the way of nature? Then I would like to ask—" Stretching out his hand to the heavens, he said, "What is the sun, and why does the glory not fall?" What is the moon, and why is there no light of the sun? What is the earth, and how can it carry nature? Why am I a king, and why am I me? ”

The top scholars of this era are not able to answer these questions clearly, but even if they can't answer them, there will always be all kinds of mystical metaphors - don't think that natural science is the weakness of metaphysics, and people can come up with crooked theories that can barely justify themselves. That's why he started to ask, and Wei Jue was eager to try and plan to answer them one by one, but when he heard the question "Why is Qing Qing, and why am I me", Wei Shubao was stunned all of a sudden.

"Who am I?", this is an eternal problem, involving too many philosophical propositions, and it is difficult for anyone to give a seemingly harmonious answer these days. Moreover, Wei Jue only pondered the "Avenue of Heaven and Earth" in the past, and ignored the people themselves, and more importantly, the self itself, so he suddenly got into the tip of the horns.

"Why am you Qing, and why am I me?" He couldn't help but repeat Pei Gai's question, and then he tightened his brows and muttered. Everyone was silent, waiting for Wei Jue to refute Pei Gai, but they didn't hear Wei Shubao's speech on the left, and they didn't hear Wei Shubao open his mouth on the right, and Pei Gai drank three glasses of wine over there......

He Xun also thought that Wei Jue was stumped on the Xuan, but he couldn't find the bottom of the steps, so he stood up and played a round: "The way of heaven and earth is magnificent and far-reaching, and it is beyond our control." Today's good day, please have a few cups of wine. ”

Everyone raised their wine glasses, but only Wei Jue maintained a meditative posture and did not move. Ji You reminded him in a low voice: "Brother Uncle Bao, please drink it." After saying it three times in a row, Wei Jue reacted, but he didn't touch the wine glass, but looked at Ji You blankly, turned to look at Pei Gai, and then suddenly "wow", spurting out a mouthful of blood foam!

Now the big guys are all stupid, and even Pei Gai is not small - alas, I actually told Wei Jue to vomit blood, do I have so much power? Reach out and caress his back. The two boys of the Wei family were originally serving in the rear, and they were at a loss when they saw this, and one of them cried on the spot, but fortunately, there were several old servants nearby, and they hurriedly rushed up to help Wei Jue, and then confessed repeatedly: "My family Langjun is weak, I think he can't stand the wind on the mountain...... I waited for this and helped him back to the house and went to the doctor to check his pulse. ”

A party broke up halfway through - Wei Jue was the guest of honor, he vomited blood and fled, are others embarrassed to continue drinking and lingering? And as soon as Wei Jue left, Pei Cai didn't want to stay longer, and also left the table under the pretext of leaving the table, the rest were Jiangdong acquaintances, why should they continue to stay in the mountains? They also retired one after another.

Wei Jue was carried down the mountain by the servants, and Pei Gai walked down by himself, and only halfway up the mountain, the Wei Xun caught up again, and complimented: "Listen to Pei ...... today Brother Wenyue's decree is very pleased. The servant is inclined to the sublime, and what is the use of the emptiness of the non-existent? Pei Cai smiled casually, knowing that the other party was talking nonsense, but he didn't bother to expose it.

After descending the mountain, he boarded the ox cart, and Wei Xun repeated it several times: "I should visit the house another day." Pei Cai nodded, and it was inconvenient to refuse directly. When the ox cart started, it didn't go far, and I saw Wei Jue's car still slowly swaying in front. Pei Gai opened the carriage door and shouted: "Since you are sick, why don't you return to the house as soon as possible and delay the diagnosis and treatment?" It's so slow and delays the condition, how is it good? Ordered, let's overtake, and then shouted: "I'm here to open the way for Shubao, but follow me!" ”
