Chapter XVII, tuba and milk name
On the occasion of the full moon of the child, Pei should feast the guests in Chang'an City and name his son.
So what should I call it? Pei should have a big head, and he thought about it for a long time - who is the most famous surnamed Pei in later generations? Naturally, it was Pei Yuanqing, the third-ranked sledgehammer in "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties". However, this person is an artistic fiction, and in these years, the scholars are still accustomed to a single name, and there are very few people with a double name, so they are called Pei Yuan and Pei Qing, which don't seem to sound very good.
However, Pei Yuanqing also has a prototype, that is, Pei Xingyan, the eldest son of Pei Renji, the secretary of the Sui Dynasty's Ministry of Rites, who once defected to Wagang with his father, and was awarded the title of Shangzhu State and Jiangjun Gong, and later returned to Wang Shichong......
It's unlucky to think about it!
Think about it again, fortunately, Pei Renji has a second son, that is, Pei Xingyan's brother, who is the famous general Pei Xingjian in the early Tang Dynasty, who died of illness in bed.
Pei Xingjian kept the contract, Tang Taizong was selected in the Ming Jing examination, and named Su Dingfang to grant the art of using soldiers - in fact, the Pei family has been a general for several generations, and there is no need to teach at all - and was appointed as the governor of the Western Prefecture Governor Shi, the protector of Anxi and other positions, guarding the Western Regions, repelling the invasion of the Turks and Tibetans many times, and finally pacifying the remnants of the Eastern Turks. Pei Xingjian Yunwen Yunwu, the official to the Ministry of Rites and the general of the right guard of the inspection school, Feng Wenxi Gong...... This deed is much more glorious, and the end is also very good.
Pei should think about it, then he, decided to name his son Jian-Pei Jian, hoping that as his name suggests, he will not become a wealthy son of extravagance and corruption in the future.
When the name was decided, the wedding feast had not yet begun, so everyone in the family was notified first. Pei Fu objected to this and said to Pei Gai: "According to the convention, children take their big names when they are first one year old, and the crown ceremony is a fixed word. Now that the son has not yet reached the full moon, he will set a big name, which is not in line with the times, but also fearful...... It's not good for the year. Think twice. β
Pei Gai didn't have this string in his mind - how could there be a child in the future who would not be named until he was one year old? How do I get an account? So he asked, "If you have a name, it is convenient to call it, but if you have no name all the year, won't it be troublesome?" β
Pei Fu arched his hand and said: "You can give a name first." And according to the customs of the hometown, children have many notorieties - naturally there are exceptions - then the gods do not disturb, the ghosts do not care, and they can get peace. β
It is said that it is easier to feed a child by giving a child a cheap name for a cat and a dog, but this custom has been passed down to Pei Gai's previous life, and he has also heard of it. So he asked Pei Fu: "I also have a milk name?" "I know that Cao Cao has a milk name, called "Ah Pu", and I also know Gu Kaizhi's nickname "Tiger Head", Tao Yuanming's nickname "Xigou", and Wang Anshi's nickname "Badger Lang"...... Except for Gu Hutou, they are all notoriety and cheap. So do I have a nickname? I'm not impressed......
Pei Fu said with a smile: "The lord has his own name, but after a long time, no one has called him, so I think I forgot it." "He is an old family member who once followed Pei Gai, and he is nearly fifteen years older than Pei Gai, that is to say, Pei Gai is still in infancy, and when he was called by his nickname, Pei Fu was almost an adult, and he naturally has memories of this.
immediately reminded: "The lord's milk name is called 'Ah Yu'." β
Pei Gai frowned, trying his best to search for the broken memories of this life, and seemed to have some impressions. casually asked again: "What is the name of the first brother?" β
Pei Fu replied, "It's 'Qinglang'." β
Pei Cai listened to it and couldn't help but be depressed: "He can celebrate when he is born, but I am redundant when I am born - I am also the blood of my father, how unfair the treatment is!" β
Pei Fu said with a smile: "When the ancestor was here, every praise brother Geng Jie was honest, smart and studious, and thought that he would become a great tool." As for the lord's father......" halfway through the words, he quickly swallowed it.
Pei should say that you tell the truth, you don't have to be obscure, when my father was still alive, what did you say about me?
Pei Fu said: "When the ancestor was killed, the lord was only ten years old, and he was a child, how did he do it accurately?" It's just that...... The first father said, Ah Yu is shy and cowardly, and it is difficult to achieve great things, only by relying on the protection of his father and brother can he become an adult......" said again and again, apologizing.
Pei should not help but laugh, and said in his heart "shy and cowardly, it is difficult to achieve great things", in fact, it is also very appropriate, the original Pei Wenyue was not a coward, and he would not have seen the corpse mountain and sea of blood outside Ningping City, and he was scared to death on the spot, so I took advantage of the weakness to enter. After thinking about it for a while, I really have to give my son a nickname, it's not good to call "Pei Jian" long and "Pei Jian" short to a baby in swaddling clothes.
Suddenly remembered that when the baby was born, he had the words "protect the big but not the small", and couldn't help blurting out: "It is the name of the child's milk, which can be called 'Baoda'." "It's the boss of my family, it's appropriate to call it "Baoda", as for the name, it's not evil...... Then Gu Kaizhi is still called "Tiger Head", what kind of cheap name is easy to feed, Pei Gai himself definitely doesn't believe it.
Do you really call your son "Brook Dog" and "Badger Lang"? Pei should not be so masochistic.
However, the name of the milk is only called by the family, and at the time of the full moon banquet, it is naturally inconvenient to announce it and publicize it to everyone. Pei Cai didn't care what Pei Fu said, he announced it directly, my son's name is "Jian", so he is called Pei Jian, and everyone is undoubtedly righteous.
Because of the so-called "100 miles of different winds", children only get up when they are one year old, this is not Confucian etiquette, not the court law, who knows what habits you have when you hear about the Pei family? As for Pei Wei and the others, although they were a little confused, they didn't know if the main branch had other rules - Pei Jian's name was good, so he called it like that.
In this feast, there were many participants, hundreds of people sat in the hall - in fact, there were still in the back hall, most of them were relatives and relatives, and Xun Guanniang was responsible for entertaining. Xiao Baoda was carried out by the nurse, and made a bright appearance in front of all the guests and friends, and then carried back to the backyard, after all, it was still a baby in swaddling clothes, whether he dared to face such a big scene, whether he would be scared to cry or even frightened, it was really difficult for anyone to guarantee.
But it seems that Baoda's courage is still not small, the nurse originally took advantage of his sleeping opportunity to hug out, but only to the front hall, perhaps because of the noisy voice, the baby woke up instantly, stared at the two big eyes, curiously looked around. The guests took the opportunity to praise one after another, saying that there is no fear of people here, no cowardice, and it will become a great weapon in the future.
Pei Caixin said, "Three-year-old looks big, seven-year-old looks old", just this is just a full moon baby, what can you see? However, he also knew that the praise of the guests was not so much a compliment as a good wish. Now let the nurse take her son back, then raise up the wine cup, thank the people, and say:
"It is good luck for children, not born in the time of mourning, not in the future, nor in the time of peace, worry-free, picking up this Hu Chi gradually and China will be prosperous in this year. I also hope that you will work together with me to redefine the world, so that children can know that it is not easy to be born, but they can enjoy peace when they grow up. β
All the guests raised their glasses and expressed their attitudes, saying that we will definitely be good at assisting Ming Gong, and we will also be good at Zuo Gongzi in the future.
Pei Gai said: "Today's full moon, and then there will be a 100-day gift and a year-old ceremony, and you should also be invited to come to the banquet." And I want him to do the thing of 'grasping the week' when he is one year old, so as to observe his aspirations. β
The custom of "grasping Zhou" has lasted for nearly 2,000 years, and the source is this era, but it is not the style of the Central Plains, but the customs of the south of the Yangtze River. Yan Zhitui of the Northern Qi Dynasty recorded in the "Yan's Family Motto": "Jiangnan customs, the first period of children's life, in order to make new clothes, bath decoration, men use bows, arrows, paper, pens, women, knives, rulers, needles, wisps, and add food and drink and treasure clothes to play, put it in front of the child, watch its intention to take, to test the corruption and foolishness, the name is the trial." β
Of course, Pei Gai didn't believe that putting a few things could really try out the ambition of a one-year-old child, but he thought this custom was very interesting, so he planned to play it again, a little pleasure. Half of the people in the audience didn't understand what it meant to "catch Zhou", and the remaining half had heard of it, and they were all contaminated with the southern customs when Pei Gong lived in Jiankang - this matter is harmless, and if you want to do it, you can do it well.
ββββββββββ
The articles and books of these years were originally copied very slowly, but Pei Gai had already used engraving and printing, and the layout was one, whether it was "Surname Chronicles" or "Hundred Family Names", there were thousands of sets in ten months, and they were distributed to the outside world through various channels - for example, underwritten by merchants, and no cost was charged. Thus, in just a few months, the two books spread all over the world.
Wang Dunshi was in Nanchang, he was furious when he read the book, and said to his henchman Qian Feng: "It's all nonsense, now I am a major general of the country, and since I should be in the top ten, how can I rank so low?!" β
But then he sighed and said, "It was mistaken by Maohong (Wang Dao)." β
Since Pei and Zu's Northern Expedition, until Liu Kui entered Chang'an, the Jiankang regime has repeatedly hindered in the rear, although it is Yu Liang who presides over its affairs, but Wang Dao, as the ruler, did not hinder it, it is clearly acquiescing, how can Pei Gai and Zu Ti not give birth to mustard? This time, Pei should compile "Surname Chronicles" and "Hundred Family Names", which dragged the ranking of many already declining families in Kanto behind, which is reasonable - Wang Dun does not object to it - but the Langya Wang family should not be greatly downgraded.
Wang Dun's current official is the general of Zhendong, the opening of the palace and the three divisions, the governor Jiang Yang, Jingxiang, Jiaoguang, the military of the six states, the history of the Jiangzhou assassin, and the marquis of Han An; Even if Director Wang is Sima Rui's guest, he also has the title of General Zhenwei (Fourth Grade) on his body, just with the authority of the two of them, it is impossible to lower the Langya Wang clan so low!
Therefore, Pei should have stuffed a lot of private goods into the book, which can be seen by a person, and the biggest private goods are naturally deliberately belittling the Langya Wang family.
Qian Feng persuaded Wang Dun to calm his anger for the time being, and then said: "Pei Gong's move is not only to lower the Wang family, but also to weaken the government of Jiangnan, then Diao and Liu will not get rid of it, and it will be a big trouble in the end!" β
Since Liu Kui went to Chang'an, successfully negotiated with Pei Gai, and returned to Jiangdong triumphantly, Diao Xie and Liu Kui have won the favor of Sima Rui, but Director Wang has the meaning of being affected and standing aside because of Yu Liang's defeat. But if it's just that, after all, no one can move Wang Dun, Langya Wang's two heads are equally important, Wang Dao is frustrated, Wang Dun may be happy to see it......
The various measures of the key Diao Xie and Liu Kui caused a large number of overseas Chinese to return to the north, and most of those who stayed were suppressedβespecially the Langya Wang clanβwhich caused the indigenous people in Jiangdong to be ready to move. Wu Shi originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to squeeze into Sima Rui's shogunate to get a piece of the pie, but Diao and Liu themselves were overseas Chinese, and the purpose of weakening the overseas Chinese families was to enhance Sima Rui's dictatorial power in Jiangdong, and at the same time, it would not make the court suspicious, and they had no intention of delegating power to the natives.
Therefore, led by Wu Xing Shen, the natives themselves did not dare to act rashly, but they fanned the flames everywhere and instigated small-scale rebellions, causing Wang Dun, Zhou Wan, Gan Zhuo and other generals to lead troops to recruit and suppress everywhere, and they were overwhelmed.
Therefore, Qian Feng said: "Wu Shigu, Lu, He, Xue, etc. have to be promoted, and when Nan Raccoon sees this, the arrogance is even more blazing, which clearly shows that the imperial court wants to weaken my Jiangdong, so that it will not be troubled by the Central Plains." If you can't re-honor the surname of the overseas Chinese, then this disaster will not be solved, and if you want to make a change, you must go to Diao and Liu! β
Wang Dun bowed his head slowly and said, "Shiyi's words are true, I should send a letter to Shu Maohong to cheer him up." He is working internally, and I echo externally, so that the government of Jiankang can be changed. β
ββββββββββ
These two books were finally sent to Liu Cang's desk through various channels. Liu Cang couldn't put it down, recited it day and night, and said: "Dong Wenbo is a great Confucian in the world, the examination is detailed, the context is clear, and the rhetoric is elegant and ......tame," and then laughed and said: "Only its ranking must be Pei Wenyue's private intentions, and it is not credible." β
He stretched out his hand to pat the book, triumphantly, looking left and right, that means: What is the purpose of Pei should make this book? Can't you see his selfishness? I guessed correctly, right?
Liu Cang was so proud that he began to talk nonsense, saying that we should also compile the same book, sort out the various families in the country, and set a ranking. Of course, my emerging Liu family is the national surname, and it should be ranked first; Shan is a national relative, and should be second; As for Huyan, Helan, Bu, Qiao and other nationalities (or Tuge or Xiongnu), they are all in the top ten!
The order was issued, but no one was willing to write it. The key is that Hu Hangen is basically weak, and there are not many prominent ethnic groups in the territory, even if the surname Hu is also stuffed in, as Liu Cang said, it is estimated that it will be difficult to pick out fifty. The Jin people write books, there are people, nearly two hundred, and we only have forty or fifty here, this is Dong Shi Xiaofeng, and it will be laughed at by the world.
Unless you include the cold doors that are waiting for you...... That's not bad either, and it will make people laugh off their big teeth.
In that case, who is willing to bear the infamy of this main writer?
Liu Cang saw that it was difficult to succeed, and after a long time, his thoughts faded, and finally he couldn't do it.
The two books were also sent to Shi Le's desk - at this time he had already returned to Xiangguo to sit in town, and sent Shi Hu, Kong Chang, Xuan An and other generals to calm down and merge with the state - Shi Shilong, of course, was illiterate, so he ordered Fan Tan, who joined the army, to read it, and he listened to it shaking his head and shaking his head, and enjoying it.
After finishing, he said to Zhang Bin and Cheng Yao: "Pei Wenyue can't be judged purely by the world's celebrities, and he can only reach the land." If I want to compile it, how can there be anything in the Sima family, the surname Pei should be the first, the surname Liu is the second, and I will be the third. β
Then he stretched out his hand and pointed: "The surname Zhang is fourth, the surname Cheng is fifth...... paused, and then said: "Or the ancestral surname is four or five." β
Cheng Yao was unhappy in his heart - why am I still behind Zhang Bin? He complimented: "Since the Ming Duke has this intention, he can write a book for the public." β
Shi Le laughed and said, "Say it casually, Ziyuan doesn't have to take it seriously." After laughing, he turned to Zhang Bin and asked: "Writing a book is a scholar's business, and Pei Wenyue is not a pure scholar, I expect that his move must have a deep meaning." The right marquis may know his heart? β
Zhang Bin nodded and arched his hand: "Ming Gong has seen thousands of miles. I think Pei Wenyue wrote these two books, and his real intention is to ...... "analyze this article in detail, and analyze it to Shi Le paragraph by paragraph, Cheng Yao couldn't interject next to him, and he was even more angry.
