Chapter 7: The Four Commanders of Koto (3)
Damn, does he care if he's worth it or not? Lao Tzu only looks at his mood when he does things. But after I thought about it carefully, I felt that Jiangdong Sijun's reputation still had a certain amount of truth outside, Qiu Yuandu went to kill Yang Su a bit of a moth to the fire, Mr. Fang was also naΓ―ve to have this idea, they seemed to have one thing in common, although I don't know what it is, anyway, I definitely don't have it. In this way, they are actually quite powerful. People say that reading more can change a person, and I actually began to believe this sentence, because not only do I feel different when I read now, but I also think differently than before.
When it was almost the time for the Chinese New Year, the Tang Guogong Mansion was lively, and the subordinates were busy cleaning the courtyard and hanging lanterns, and the mother was also very happy, because my father, whom I had never met before, was about to come back. When I think about this, I feel my heart pounding, and I don't know why.
Tang Guogong Li Yuan, I didn't dare to recognize this father at the first glance Okay, I heard Rong'er say that this father is thirty years old this year, I rely on shaving my beard and putting it on my place I am definitely a little fresh meat, I can't imagine that the ancient beauty technology is also very good. It's just that he looks almost, his eyes are slender, and he is bright - when he asked Rong'er, she said that this is Danfeng Eye, and she has a big nose, and her slender beard is very good-looking, was there no razor in ancient times? How can a man have a beard?
"The child has seen his father." I still have this basic courtesy.
Li Yuan was very happy to see me, I am sorry, it is completely different from the father image I imagined. I heard my brother tell me about my personal experience a long time ago, saying that when he was at home, his father was very cruel to him, either beating or scolding, saying that he was not successful, and he ran out in a fit of anger and got mixed up. Because I have never had a father, I have always imagined according to his train of thought, thinking that my father in the world is a virtuous person, no wonder my heart beats faster every time I think of seeing this father, it turns out that I am frightened.
Then Li Yuan told me about the second possibility of becoming a father. He first asked how my mother was at home and how my sister was at home, and then said that this winter was extremely cold and I should pay attention to keeping warm from the cold, and then asked Mr. Fang how he was doing, and finally asked me about my homework. I said that I had been reading the Analects recently, and he smiled and nodded. That's it? So what am I worried about?
Of course, I couldn't have been as excited about my father's return as my mother, and I thought about her, a person who never showed her emotions easily, and her eyebrows fluttered that day as if she was so excited. I'm not like her, I'm more interested in the guest behind my father.
He's a man - so he also has a beard, he's obviously older than his father, and he also has a vicissitudes of life. I heard my dad say that his name is Cheng Buyi, I damn it, and it's a gentleman? No, he's a fortune teller and he's good at face-to-face...... Ancient people also liked to play tricks too much, isn't Cheng Yizhi, who ranks third in the "Jiangdong Four Juns", just a looker? Will they be alone? After he came to the house, Mr. Fang didn't have the heart to teach me his homework, and my inference was correct nine times out of ten. It is said that Cheng Yizhi once went in and out of the court of Chen Guo, and saw Zhang Lihua, the favorite concubine of the king of the dead country, saying that she had the disaster of killing, and if she wanted to avoid trouble, she should avoid favor first, and to put it simply, don't always mix with the emperor - I heard that Chen Shubao was reluctant to part with her when he went to court, and asked her to sit on her lap, she must be very thin. Chen Shubao was furious when he heard about it, and almost killed Cheng Yizhi, but fortunately, thanks to Fang Yu's bitter advice, he was able to get out of the palace alive. Later, Cheng Yizhi's words came true, and when Jiankang City fell, Gao Gong, the Duke of Qi, who was now in charge of the government with Yang Su, said that she was a red face and a disaster, and killed her without saying a word.
Damn, can it be said that this Cheng Buyi has already seen that my father is going to be the emperor in the future?
However, my father is definitely not a simple character, so I invited Mr. Fang first...... My mother said that although the Tang Mansion was favored by the emperor, it couldn't be compared with that Yang Su at all, so I was injured by a horsewhip last time and my father had to make amends for me, but Mr. Fang planned to assassinate Yang Su back then, and Yang Su's turtle son killed all the children of his good friend's family. Now that the fortune teller has been invited into the mansion, Rong'er told me that this man surnamed Cheng said that Sui and Qin would die in the same way - when Jiankang City was broken, he said it when he watched the King of Jin patrol the city. It didn't take long for everyone to know what this Jiangdong celebrity said, and Cheng Yizhi had no choice but to go away under a pseudonym. Unexpectedly, as soon as he left, he walked to the Tang Guogong Mansion again. My father's motives for making friends with these people are definitely not pure.
The reason why I am ...... to Cheng Yizhi Now it should be called Cheng Buyi, so interested, mainly because people with little knowledge are very superstitious, such as me, I was still a little skeptical, but now that I know Cheng Buyi's story, I have twelve points of belief in him, and I am eager to know how I can avoid future disasters, how do you say this? It's always good to prepare in advance, and of course, in order to talk to Cheng Buyi alone, I took a lot of effort.
I first told Mr. Fang openly and honestly, saying that I already knew Cheng Buyi's true identity, and then praised Jiangdong Sijun fiercely, saying how I admired them, and then said my purpose, I wanted to meet Cheng Buyi. I guess Mr. Fang must have always thought I was smart, or because my praise was a bit flustering, and he agreed to my request without even thinking about it.
The conversation with Cheng Buyi took place in Cunmotang, the day before Chinese New Year's Eve. I didn't sleep well at night, thinking about how to confess to Cheng Buyi, since my father brought such a person and gave me a chance to consult the future, I have to take advantage of it, after all, it is about whether I can rewrite history and life and death in the future. But how to say it? Do I confess my identity completely, or do I try to find out what I want to know? I don't think I can do the latter method, although I am smart, I should also be a little self-aware at this time, I think of Master's words - sincerity, the first attempt on a woman failed, this time try to change to a man, maybe a person with a beard is a little smarter than someone who doesn't?
Mr. Fang told me that Cheng Buyi was already waiting in Cunmo Hall, and when I pushed the door in, a back figure was facing me in the bright candlelight, I was a little scary!
I saluted and said, "Junior, see Mr. Cheng." β
"Childe doesn't have to be like this, the old man can't afford it." Cheng Buyi's voice is a bit vicissitudes, but it is more sarcastic. I was very unhappy when I heard it, Lao Tzu, an eight-year-old child, respectfully salute you, what are you doing sarcastically about Lao Tzu? But because there are more important things to ask, I won't be with him for the time being.
"I heard that Mr. is good at meeting each other, and what he says must be true. The younger generation is bold, and I want to ask Mr. to say a word for the junior, I don't know if Mr. can do it? "Hey, the books I have read in the past few months have not been in vain, and the words I said are different from before.
Cheng Buyi glanced at me with disdain and said, "You have a bad mind at a young age, Mr. Fang teaches you like this on weekdays?" "He is full of contempt, which makes me inexplicable, Lao Tzu did not offend him.
"What Mr. Fang teaches is the right way to live in the world." I argued for Mr. Fang, and carefully looked at Cheng Buyi, this person ...... No wonder Chen Shubao wants to kill him, Lao Tzu can't stand his strange temper even a gangster, let alone the emperor? It's great to rely on your own skills? Mr. Fang is still the emperor's teacher, and I haven't seen him so crazy? I pressed the fire, of course, even if the fire was not pressed, it couldn't burn, and if there was a request, I had to admit it, "It's just that the younger generation is the same as Mr., and he is quite a little biased, so I implore Mr. to give him advice." β
Cheng Buyi glanced at me, looked at me like a monster, and sneered: "Childe is so frivolous, aren't you afraid of breaking Ling Zun's face?" β
No way! Think you can press Lao Tzu by moving out of Daddy? Thinking too much, I thought for a while and replied: "Sir is so arrogant, aren't you afraid of causing another disaster?" If that's the case, Mr. still expects Mr. Fang to save him? β
The atmosphere in the Ink Hall suddenly became weird, a modern gangster PK an ancient fortune teller, even if he can know the future, what about it? Although Lao Tzu has never read a book, he has heard a lot of stories, it can't be all made up, there must be a little real thing as a background to make people listen to it. Lao Tzu just has the confidence to compete with him and extinguish his arrogance.
Cheng Buyi was stunned, he obviously couldn't have imagined that a child would dare to argue with him regardless of etiquette. Hehe, Lao Tzu has never understood any etiquette...... Hey, it's not right, I can't be sorry for Mr. Fang, what can I do!
The best thing to do is to keep going.
"Mr. Cheng." I stabilized my tone, although my heart was a little weak, I couldn't show it to be seen by him, "The younger generation actually knows what will happen in the future, I wonder if Mr. wants to hear it?" β
Cheng Buyi glared at me and waved his sleeves, "Since the son wants to speak, the old man will listen to it." He sat down in his chair and looked straight at me. I'm a little hairy, he won't see that I'm an impostor, right?
I organized the language and whispered: "I am afraid that the younger generation will not die well in the future, and will die under the arrows of my compatriots." Although the voice still sounded childish, the tone was guaranteed to be absolutely serious.
Cheng Buyi stared at my face for a full time...... Ten minutes? Only then did he shake his head and said slowly: "What the son said, yes." "There is no arrogance at all, and there is a little pity in his eyes. I don't need others to be pitied!
"Before, I was old and despised my son." Cheng Buyi actually stood up and gave me a look. Where can I afford this? Not to mention that Cheng Buyi is older than me, I don't know how many rounds, I heard that the gift from the elder-person who should be older than himself-is going to be a birthday, I still want to live a few more years, and I still have something to ask him for advice! I hurriedly dodged and lifted him up.
"If the younger generation asks for Mr., how can he receive a great gift from Mr.?"
