Chapter 42: Cai Yong
Walking into the grass house, Jiang Feng saw an old man holding a huge brush more than three feet long, stopping in front of a huge white juan, closing his eyes and contemplating. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
This person is the famous historian of the Three Kingdoms period, the great writer Cai Yong. Cai Lao's pen was repeatedly moistened in the inkstone, but he was reluctant to put pen to paper.
Jiang Feng stood in front of the door, silently, waiting quietly.
There was enough time for a stick of incense, Cai Yong suddenly opened his eyes, waved his big arm, and walked the dragon and snake, flowing through the clouds and water. But after a while, the word "monarch" appeared on Bai Juan.
Jiang Feng can be said to have no knowledge of calligraphy at all, and he doesn't know which font Cai Yong is writing in, and he doesn't know what techniques he uses to write. But Jiang Feng could see that these two words were strong and powerful, and although the two words were together, they were written in different ways.
The word "Jun" is rich in dragon flying, elegant and handsome, occupying the top of Bai Juan. On top of this white juan, it is like a dragon in Izumo, looking down on the common people and understanding the world.
The word "Chen" is calm and strong, majestic and heavy, sitting in the lower half of Baijuan, as if a mountain in the south mountain, connecting the sky and the river and the sea below.
"Good words, good words. Cai Lao really lives up to his name, these two words have far-reaching meanings, and they are powerful through the back of the paper. Jiang Feng said.
Cai Yong had long known that Lu Bu was standing at the door, and he didn't look back, and said lightly: "Dong Zhuo sent you, right?" The first time I resigned, I knew that there would be such a day, and Dong Zhuo would be forced to fight with a sword sooner or later. β
Jiang Feng said: "Old Cai, although I did come to invite you to Beijing as an official this time. However, I am not here for Dong Zhuo, but for the 400-year-old society of the Han Dynasty, for the world's scholars, and even more for Cai Lao. β
Cai Yong turned around, looked at Lu Bu, and said with some disdain: "Oh, then I want to hear how General Lu came for the world and for me." β
Jiang Feng was not in a hurry, and walked around the room. There are two rooms in this cottage, the outer hall is also a study, and the room is full of books and scrolls; The inner room is the bedroom, only a straw mat and a yaoqin.
Jiang Feng said: "I heard that Cai Lao is sincere and filial, and his virtue spread far and wide when he was young. Legend has it that your mother was bedridden for three years, and you didn't even go to bed for months, regardless of whether you were cold or hot. When your mother died, you built a house next to the tomb and kept it to live in. I wonder if it's this grass house? β
Cai Yong looked at the tombstone outside the window and said, "How many years have it been, as a son of man, you should be filial to your parents." Now the old man is over 100 and a half years old, and his parents have also died, but it is a pity that he still has no children and cumin. I am really ashamed of my ancestors. β
As he spoke, Cai Yong's eyes revealed a kind of sadness and desolation. The ancients favored sons over daughters, Mencius once said that unfilial piety has three nos, Cai Yong only has two daughters and no sons, so in the eyes of the ancients, it is also a type of unfilial piety.
Jiang Feng said again: "I also heard that Cai Lao is rich in five cars, and there are thousands of scrolls hidden in his home, and Cai Lao knows these books well, and even memorizes them backwards. β
"So what?" Cai Yong's face was as usual, and what Lu Bu said repeatedly was not worth mentioning at all.
"I also know that when Emperor Ling was alive, he issued an edict to blame himself, and ordered the ministers to each state feasible measures to govern the country's major affairs. It's a pity that he was framed later because Cai Lao offended the eunuchs, and many things were not implemented. Jiang Feng said.
In fact, Jiang Feng didn't know these things, and Lu Bu didn't know either, they were all told to him by Chen Gong.
Cai Yong didn't know what Jiang Feng meant, but what Jiang Feng said was indeed the truth, and it was something Cai Yong was proud of. Looking back on the past, Cai Yong also sighed with some emotion: "It's a pity that even if you have a place for it, I'm afraid these things will be brought to the grave with the old man." β
Jiang Feng said: "Cai Lao's words are wrong, how can he say that there is no place for it?" Isn't this a great opportunity? β
Cai Yong said: "Hmph, a traitor like Dong Zhuo is in charge, do you think I will plan for him, help him frame Zhongliang, and cause chaos to the dynasty?" As soon as Dong Zhuo took control of the government, he abolished the emperor and set up another one, and even wantonly brutalized the loyal ministers of the Han family. Now that there is a miasma in the DPRK, if I go, I will definitely end up with them. β
Jiang Feng said: "Cai Lao's words are wrong, I said that I didn't come for Dong Zhuo. It is precisely because of such a situation in the court that people with high moral standing and insight are needed to govern. Compared with Cai Lao, he also heard that now the ministers of the DPRK and China are dying, degrading, and fleeing, and many state affairs have been abandoned. In particular, the compilation of national history and the designation of national rites are no longer in charge. β
Speaking of this, Jiang Feng quietly observed Cai Yong and saw that he was also moved. Cai Yong's greatest achievement is not calligraphy, not piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but historiography. He has a collection of thousands of volumes, is proficient in the history of the Han Dynasty, and has a lot of treasures about the etiquette norms of the Han Dynasty. As soon as Lu Bu mentioned the collapse of the national rites, he was naturally heartbroken.
Jiang Feng continued: "If this continues, within a dozen years, the etiquette system of the imperial court will no longer exist, and no one will know the history of the Han Dynasty. As a leader in this area, Mr. must not hide deep in the mountains and wilderness at this time, and close his pen to entertain himself. I have a sentence that I don't know if to say or not? β
"You say." Cai Yong said.
"I think that the pen of a literati is like the sword of a military general, the general fights on the battlefield, and the civil and civil servants fight and the court. No matter how dark the court is, no matter how mediocre the emperor is, the ministers should not abandon the dawn and the people. At the time of this national crisis, Mr. should use you to hold a huge pen like a rafter, splash ink, and open a book and pass on. Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations. β
The pen in Cai Yong's hand fell on the case, and he read softly in his mouth: "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations." β
Jiang Feng said: "Yes, Mr. wants to preserve the etiquette system for future generations and the 400-year history of the Han Dynasty." Ten years later, twenty years later, there will still be courtesy to follow, and there is history to follow! β
Cai Yong looked up to the sky and sighed, and said to Lu Bu: "Okay, I promise you." But you also have to tell Dong Zhuo that I only do the revision of the historical records, and I will never participate in political affairs. β
Jiang Feng said: "Lu Bu also assured Cai Lao that he would fully support Cai Lao's work and not let Cai Lao get involved in the political struggle. β
Cai Yong laughed at this time: "Okay, good boy." I really didn't expect me to be persuaded by you, you kid is not simple. Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations. Your mind is not simple! β
This sentence was really not taught to Lu Bu by Chen Gong, but Jiang Feng accidentally saw it in a history book, and the predecessors said: Reading history can make people wise to learn from the past and know the future. That's true.
Speaking of Cai Yong, Jiang Feng was also very happy, and said to Cai Yong: "I also heard that Cai Lao's daughter is well-read and proficient in music and rhythm, and she has won the true biography of Cai Lao, I don't know if I can meet it?" β
Cai Yong looked at Lu Bu's expression a little complicated, and said, "The old man has two daughters, but they are both married. The little girl Wenji just got married two days ago, and now there is only the old husband in the family. β
"Ahh
Jiang Feng screamed, missed it again, and missed it again. Diao Chan is gone, and Cai Wenji is gone. Oh my God, what did I do wrong, if you want to punish me like this, you might as well kill me with a thunderbolt!
