Chapter Thirty-Six: Hand Talk About Virtue There is no solution
The Winter Food Festival is here.
It was an important festival in the Tang Dynasty, and even all officials had three days off.
Li Wei went to the Criminal Department and the Military Department for a while and looked at the official documents. Of course, it's not that the officials are on vacation, and the yamen of the six ministries of the three provinces is empty. There are still many officers and soldiers in custody. However, the crown prince wanted to go in and take a look, and no one dared to stop him.
In fact, Li Wei deliberately waited for this day to come.
After turning around, he saw that there was no one around, and said to Bi'er: "Make a cup of tea for Lone." ”
Bi'er turned to leave to prepare tea, and Li Wei quickly stamped the forged seal. Because he wanted to run away, he took a special look at the system of the past checkpoints, and it was necessary to pass the checkpoint, but he made a mistake himself, it was not sponsored by the Ministry of Households, but the Department of Criminal Affairs of Shangshu Province was the chief judge, and the local Ministry of Household Cao Jun was the main judge, and the consultation and military participation were judged, which was very cumbersome.
Of course, he couldn't even figure out where Dai Zhide was sacred, and this more unpopular procedure was passed.
In fact, the former is rarely used normally, and it is generally impossible to ask the central government for instructions when passing through the checkpoint. The checkpoint passed by the chief judge of the criminal department, which made Guan Yun Changqing Long Yanyue slaughter a chicken with a knife. But with this pass, you can pretend to be Koreans, Japanese people, or other races similar to the Central Plains people, and enter and exit the border!
This made him very embarrassed, don't think that if you wear it on the prince, you will immediately do something. Like him, if you want to learn the ancient scriptures, at least you can't be too different from the original Li Hong. This is based on some ancient Chinese, if not, or even know traditional writing, you have to see.
Another example is the system, customs, and government institutions of the Tang Dynasty. Look at yourself, I don't know if I often close the position, but fortunately I am low-key and do not move it out to show off. Besides, I also took it for granted. reacted quickly that day and said that he lost his soul, otherwise there must be a number of Taoist monks in the East Palace now, who began to exorcise demons from him.
Then he returned to the East Palace with a large pile of maps. This has to be seen slowly, there are many maps in the country, and the terrain is different from that of later generations, checkpoints, garrisons, and settings in various places, if you want to run, you must also write it down. But it's impossible to keep all the maps in your head at once. Not only the maps of the interior of the Tang Dynasty, but also the maps of Tuyuhun and the Western Regions were moved out by Li Wei.
The temperament is gentle and slow, and on this benefit, he is more careful in doing things.
I took a note and looked normal. Even Di Renjie was here, and he didn't expect him to have any plans.
With more than 20 forged places in his arms, he is prepared. A heart settled. Running away is absolutely unavoidable, in a foreign place, and he does not have Xue Rengui's force, he may not be able to speak well, and he may not have a happy life. But it's better than the one that died inexplicably. With a back road, you will have confidence in your heart.
There were a lot of atlases, so I beckoned a soldier and asked him to share a little, and the three of them carried them into the carriage. I'm back to the East Palace. I saw that the cuckoo was looking at the swallow's nest under the eaves with a few little palace maids, and saw Li Wei get out of the carriage and bow together.
"It's all rude, what are you looking at?"
"Your Highness, this pair of little swallows today is very strange, only Da Hei came down to feed, and Xiao Hei stayed in the nest and never came out."
"Oh, come and see."
Big black and small black are the names of the palace maids in the inner palace according to their size. Li Wei estimated that Da Hei might be a male swallow, Xiao Hei was a female swallow, and the bottom was a male and female, but he didn't know very well. After looking at it for a while, Bi'er asked worriedly, "Will Xiao Hei be okay?" ”
Li Wei said, Yanzi is loyal to the master, Yanzi Bi'er in the world doesn't care, but this is loyal to Yanzi Li Wei, and he is usually very attentive.
"Don't worry, Hei has laid eggs, so stay in the nest. Seeing that the big black was not, it took the food in its mouth, but did not eat it itself, but flew into the nest. This is to feed Xiao Hei. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Hei saw Da Hei come back with worms, stuck his head out of the nest, and chirped.
All the palace maids cheered.
It's very lonely to stay in the deep palace, at first it was to tie up Li Wei, and then gradually I have feelings.
"Your Highness, great, there will be a flock of little swallows soon."
Li Wei nodded, the swallows hatched quickly, as if there was more than one nest a year.
After cheering, the cuckoo remembered what was going on, and reported: "The people of Xitai Xu She are waiting for His Highness in the palace. ”
Lao Tzu came to the door? I thought so in my heart, but I didn't dare to be disrespectful. Don't talk about him, even if his father is here, if Xu Qidan didn't commit a big crime, he can't be easily humiliated. Moreover, Xu Qitan once served as a bachelor in Chongwen Hall, and also served as Li Hong's attendant and taught literature. It is equivalent to his own real teacher.
walked in, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and said, "I've seen Xu Sheren." ”
"Don't dare, see Your Highness."
The two sat down, and Xu Qi said: "On vacation today, I just heard that His Highness had a conversation with General Liu, so that General Liu would admit defeat in the middle of the game, and the ministers would also talk with their hands, so I can't help but have some skills, I wonder if Your Highness can accompany you?" ”
Li Wei has nothing to do with him, but it turns out that Li Hong has a very close relationship with him, and every time he sees himself, Xu Qitan casts a close eye. Therefore, it is not abrupt to find the prince to play chess.
He arched his hand and said: "That's General Liu's concession to Gu, since Liu Sheren proposed to talk, Gu dare not accompany him?" ”
With a wave of his hand, he asked Bi'er to take out the chessboard and chess pieces.
The two men began to line up on the chessboard. In terms of chess power, Xu Qidan's chess power far exceeds that of Liu Renliang. Similarly, it is deeper than Li Wei. But at this time, the style of chess gentlemen prevailed, and it is no wonder that the Han Dynasty was once very disdainful, and after Cao Cao and others preached it, it gradually became popular in the Jin Dynasty. Like those later methods, they did not appear at this time at all.
Xu Qitan took one step at a time. Li Wei saw that it was not good, so the chess style began to be a scoundrel, and as the chess pieces were more and more distributed, the big one was a small one.
"Prince," Xu Qitan looked at the chaotic situation on the chessboard, couldn't help scratching his head, and said, "Is there such a way to play?" ”
He is not Liu Renliang, and directly said that you don't have the style of a gentleman in your law, so you have to change your words.
"Is there a rule that hand talks are not allowed to be done like this?"
"No?"
"That's it," Li Wei smiled slyly, Xu Qitan had a headache, he also had a headache, and after finishing speaking, another son fell, and with this one falling, a new calamity was formed. This calamity is connected to the other two calamity rings, which are directly related to the life and death of a big dragon on the left. Xu Qidan had no choice but to fall into a long exam, and only after half a day did he cautiously fall behind. Li Wei then made another son, and made another robbery on the right.
The two pieces fell, and Xu Qidan's chess pieces originally had an advantage, but in the blink of an eye, they became a disadvantage. Xu Qitan was helpless, and after pondering, he began to give up his gentlemanly style and fight against Li Wei. For a while, there was a murderous atmosphere on the chessboard, and the clouds were thick. In the end, it was Xu Qidan's profound skills, and he won by luck.
But after counting the children, Xu Qitan was already sweating profusely, and this hand-to-hand conversation was more difficult than him meeting the emperor and the queen in person. After the wind blew, he suddenly came to his senses, pushed the chess pieces, and said, "Prince, this time it's not good to talk about it." ”
"Why?"
"I have lost my humility."
Li Wei was a little dizzy, he had played chess like this all his life in his previous life, and he had never seen how irritable he was, or a scoundrel. Just like Cao Cao said that he could comprehend the principle of marching, he should take Nie Weiping, Ma Xiaochun and others to the Tang Dynasty to lead the army to fight, and see if they can fight well, don't deal with the Tubo people, even if they deal with the Koreans, they may not be able to win. But people like to be far-fetched in this era. Liu Renliang is a military general, it doesn't matter, Xu Qitan is a Confucian minister, so he is naturally not used to it.
But I don't want to lift this bar, at this time how good Confucianism is, he understands it, although he has good kung fu, but when it comes to micro-words, morality and righteousness, ten of themselves, may not be the opponent of this Xu Sheren. said with a smile: "Xu Sheren, I have lost my soul, I can remember some things, but I can't remember some things. I am afraid that the style of hand talk has changed because of this. ”
"Your Highness, the minister has a sentence but I don't know whether to say it or not."
"Please."
"The Lord said not to take the good as small and do not do it, and do not take the evil as small. Therefore, the beginning of the "Analects" is "Learning", not only to learn, but also to learn the behavior of a gentleman, to learn filial piety, and to learn benevolence. ”
This is also a fact, the first sentence is to learn and learn, don't you also say? Have friends come from afar, are you happy? People don't know and are not ashamed, and they are not gentlemen. The second sentence is a human being...... A gentleman is a gentleman, and he is born from the beginning. Filial piety is also the foundation of benevolence. This "Xueer" not only discusses learning, but also discusses the filial piety, benevolence and morality of a gentleman, and borrows the words of Zigong to say gentleness, kindness, courtesy, thrift, and humility.
It's just a game of chess, but talking about the great truth of the scriptures, knowing that he is invincible, he has never been silent, and listened to him continue: "Your Highness, although your benevolence is famous all over the world, you must guard against arrogance and rashness, and you must continue to maintain it." This kind of chess style goes to the virtue of benevolence, humility, gentleness, kindness and respect, and it must not be. Alas, even the ministers have fallen into the devil's way. ”
The Demon Dao also came out, smiled, and said in a disobedient voice: "Xu Sheren, Lone has written it down." ”
Fortunately, Xu Qitan is not too old-fashioned, since the prince admitted his mistake, and besides, the prince did a good job, so he didn't dwell on it anymore, and said: "The minister came to inquire about one more thing." ”
"What's the matter?"
"Yesterday, the minister's little daughter met the prince in the East Market, right?"
"Exactly."
"The little girl is stubborn, and the prince must not take it to heart."
"No, I feel that Xu Xiaoniang is innocent and lively, and she is very talented." Yang Li didn't have a bad impression on Li Wei, but she just felt that this little pepper was very naughty. After all, he is only a half-old child, and besides, he has nothing to do with this little lady Xu, just met in Pingshui.
"Kechen's tutor is sparse, and he is still ashamed and uneasy. But the prince, what is the next sentence of that couplet? When she went back, Xu Li told her story in a secret, and after scolding her daughter first, she immediately thought about it and meditated. I thought about it so much, but I still haven't come up with an answer. But he didn't come for the answer, let alone for the next game of Go, but to see the prince's expression and see what Li Wei's attitude was towards his daughter.
That was a quatrain that came to mind when Lone went out by chance, but he couldn't think of the next sentence. Yesterday, I didn't know that Xu Xiaoniang was a Lingnu, but she wanted to enter the East Palace, but she was heard by Lone and asked her why she entered the East Palace, but she didn't answer, so she played a prank. Xu Sheren, it's just a couplet, the people of the country are the right thing, it's better to have an answer, and if there is no answer, it doesn't hinder anything. ”
"You didn't come up with an answer either?" Xu Qitan was a little disappointed.
It's not just me, I don't know how many billions of people have passed, and there is no perfect answer. Shaking her head, she asked, "Why did Little Lady Xu go to the East Palace?" ”
Xu Qi was stunned by this question, and he also asked his daughter, but her daughter didn't answer. So he asked Yan'er, and Yan'er told him the answer, saying that the reason why Xu Li wanted to think of the East Palace was because he heard a lot of rumors about the prince. So he became curious about the prince and wanted to sneak into the East Palace to see what the prince was like. This matter is so ridiculous that he scolded his daughter again. But in general, he is still very satisfied with his pair of children, his daughter is not mentioned, and his youngest son Xu Jian is even more amazing, he has read a lot of books since he was a child. At this time, Xu Jian was only eleven years old!
But this sentence is not very easy to say, and it can't be said that she thinks of the East Palace, just to see if you have four eyes and two noses.
His face flushed.
Could it be some secret, although I was very curious, I finally asked without a final question, and said: "Lone is a joke." If Xu Xiaoniang wants to go into the East Palace to have a look, Xu Sheren will bring her to the East Palace. ”
"That's a little girl's nonsense, the minister doesn't know it, forget it, the minister knows how to allow her to mess around." Xu Qidan immediately said with a straight face.
………………………………
walked out of the East Palace, because it was a vacation, the side street was deserted, and Xu Qidan couldn't help but think about his thoughts.
In the prince's words, he also has three points of love for his daughter. Of course, this love is different from that love. This is a good sign, but the prince ......
Thinking of this, Xu Qi couldn't help but sigh.
