Section 40 Wine Gossip (II)

There is a saying that it is better to teach people to know than to be heard. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

It means that it may be known, but not heard or seen by one's own ears.

This is not a fool's practice of covering up one's ears and stealing the bell, but a regular behavior that uses rules to cover oneself in a social system with rules. It usually means that it doesn't matter whether others know it or not, and the key is not to be heard when you speak, so that it can be used as evidence of hostility.

The truth in this, but anyone with some social experience will know very well, Luo someone's words are tantamount to saying to the neighbor's relatives in the neighbor's house that the other party's parents will not run the house!

So all the old men here were a little shocked, Song Liguo has been under control for decades, and this place in Hexi has been under control for more than ten years, and there have been things about slandering the government, but no one has ever been so outspoken in front of everyone!

However, among the elders, there are finally people who understand quickly, and the half-hundred-hundred-year-old scholar who was jokingly called Sour Liu by Zhang Jiugong before spoke, "General Luo is here from afar, don't jump to conclusions." There is a saying that it is better to hear than to see, and what the general says, listen to the words of passers-by, or listen to the letters and reports of the people, so it is not wise to decide where to go in the future. Before that, the general will go to Bianjing, and listen to the old man's words, go more and see more, and then make a plan for the future! ”

The old scholar changed his name, on the surface he was more respectful, but in fact he was far away, and his words contained persuasion, but it also alluded to Luo Kaixian's abrupt words, reckless decision-making, and a few partial and gentle tones, which confirmed the role of the peacemaker on the scene.

Luo Kaixian couldn't help but secretly exclaim, and was about to speak, when the voice of Lao Yang Qi on the side rang out.

"Sour son, a scholar, is the one who speaks every time, but today's words are very refreshing! Ha ha! Old Yang Qi was obviously not affected by Luo Kaixian's previous words, and after laughing a few words, he turned to ask again: "The old man has a life span of sixty-eight, and he has also traveled the world in the past, and he has seen many heroes and arrogant people. Luo Jia Saburo led hundreds of thousands of people to return from a long distance, and the hardships on the way could not be stopped, obviously not a person who sat in the well and watched the sky, I don't know if San Lang is so suitable, how do you think about it? Can you explain a thing or two to the old people? ”

"It's okay, just according to what Uncle Yang discussed, and please listen to Luo Sanyi!" Luo Kai pondered for a while, but he was not polite, and said: "The people of the world have built a country, and it is difficult to make a living because of the weak and weak families, so they hold together in order to have no worries about food and clothing, and go in and out safely. However, if the interests of the congee are different, it is necessary to formulate rules and regulations to restrain them, and under the rules, it will be difficult to have a balanced statement, so it is inevitable that all families will have gains and losses...... After such a stake, the emperor will appear to the ministers, ministers, and people of all levels! This is the general situation of a country, what do the elders think of what Luo San said? ”

These words are half-literate and half-white, Luo Kaixian said the origin of the country, although the wording is different from the current Hexi language, but it is not difficult to understand, those who can be present at the scene are also literate and hyphenated, and they are all busy with family affairs, at first glance I heard this kind of lofty topic, and I fell into contemplation for a while, including Liu Shusheng, who just opened his mouth as a peacemaker, and Lao Yang Qi, who dominated the topic.

At the end of the long paragraph, Luo Kai asked first, not waiting for everyone to reply, but softened his tone, then sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "Don't mention what I said before, as far as Luo San knows, since the Zhao clan founded the country and conquered all countries, it was followed by the collection of military power, and then the literati were turned to suppress the warriors, and tried to lead the army with civilian officials in the army, and all matters of military training and supply were controlled by the literati. After that, every war, the general who led the army out of the army is even more guarded, although there is a reward after the end of the war, but there is no hesitation to take back the military power, although this move is beneficial to the royal power, but it will wear down the will of the general, in the long run, the general will be a lack of successors! Luo San calls himself a martial artist, if he goes to the Song realm, how can he deal with himself? ”

Luo Kaixian, who was a head taller than the elders here, sat upright, as steady as a bell mountain, and his low words were leisurely, more like morning bells and dusk drums, resounding in everyone's minds.

"Well said!" Zhang Jiugong, whose face was flushed, cheered, "I was a lieutenant general in the army in the past, and I have been in the army for 20 years, and Chunhua has been 4 years 1, because of the unfavorable supply of civilian officials, he was removed from the post of general in the army, but the thief just took off his military post and went to be an important member of his palace as usual, who is the reason?" Hmph......"

Before Zhang Jiugong's words fell, Liu, the sour son who was not far from him, spoke again: "Old wine, your old things will not be mentioned for the time being, but you have to ask Luo Jiasanlang!" ”

"Hmm...... Okay, okay, you ask, I can't talk as much as you, San Lang, a newcomer, is an ordinary person, what can you do as a scholar?! Zhang Jiugong, whose face was red, was obviously full of complaints, but apparently he was not drunk yet, and he did not argue with the scholar.

Old Scholar Liu's face turned to Luo Kaixian, and asked quite seriously: "The old man is speechless, but he knows people by his appearance, and he has a small peek at San Lang's mind, and the old man apologizes to General Luo here!" ”

As he spoke, he stood up, stood up behind the small table, and bowed with his fists in his fists.

Luo Kai was startled at first, and hurriedly stood up as well, there were small tables on the left and right, and he couldn't dodge, so he had to clench his fists at the same time to show his respect for the elders.

He secretly said in his heart, this old scholar is eloquent, but free and eclectic, from this point of view, he is a rare gentleman.

commented in his heart, but he didn't speak directly, but when he got up, he said: "The elder doesn't have to be like this, Luo San's words are also disrespectful and reckless, but please Haihan." Elders, please sit quietly, if you have any doubts, even if you say it bluntly, Luo San must know everything! ”

Either Luo's respectfulness touched people, or was awakened by his words, Liu, who had a scholarly pride since the beginning of the meeting, eased too much at this moment, and after sitting down peacefully, he went straight to Luo's words just now and said: "The emperor Chongwen suppressed martial arts, and he could avoid the situation of the former Tang Domain's secession, and then ...... According to Saburo Shicai, the **** of governance now makes the generals decadent, and the soldiers are incompetent...... Is there some alarmism? Now that the country is unified, the Khitan in the north has no power to invade again, and the party departments have also died down, and there are no strong enemies around, and it seems that there is nothing to ......."

As he spoke, the old scholar didn't seem to be asking, but fell into some kind of thinking and deduction.

Luo Kaixian's face was full of smiles again, it seems that the elder surnamed Liu, who is called "sour", does have some scholarly spirit, and is a rare honest gentleman who seeks truth from facts, it is rare that he has a good impression of this person, looking at the old scholar's somewhat bitter clothes and gray hair, he couldn't bear the other party's entanglement, and said: "Is Luo San alarmist, the elder may wish to find someone to investigate." As for the strong and weak soldiers, Luo San remembered that there was a sentence in "Sima Law" that although the country is big, it will die if it is warlike; Although the world is safe, it will be dangerous to forget the war......"

Speaking of this, Luo Kaixian didn't say anything more, and drank the venison barley porridge sent by the store, which was smooth and smooth, and it was very warm for his stomach that was supported by barbecue all the way.

Although he didn't speak, the second floor of the restaurant didn't calm down, and with the topic that had been introduced before, a group of old people had different ideas, and they all discussed it in groups.

These old people here are all well-known people in Suizhou, although there are no incumbent officials, but they are also inextricably linked with the current court, or the brothers in the family are in a certain position, or the sons and nephews of the clan are mixed in the military in a certain place, not to mention the farming and business they run to make a living, all of which are closely related to the stability of the country, how can they not take it to heart?

With the previous words as a foreshadowing, no one in the elders regarded Luo Kaixian as a lucky junior who returned from afar, and compared the words he heard with some news he heard some time ago, after the combination of the two, people with fast minds began to figure out Luo Kaixian in their hearts.

Just a few details that are revealed can make them feel that the elder who sits on the throne is not simple, so what about the unknown? And how many?

Luo Kaixian, who was drinking porridge, actually didn't get much free, and in the face of inquiries from others, he always had to deal with it from time to time, but it was just ordinary trivial matters, but he didn't say anything shocking.

After all, these people are just new acquaintances, and they can't talk about trust or not, and he doesn't want to act as a jack of all trades, let alone do anything to guide the sages in front of these people.

As for what he said before, it was only deliberately done by him - what could be better than arousing the curiosity of others if it were to arouse people's attention? Therefore, he said half of his words, his words were open, but there was no substance, and after he lit the fire of the topic in generalities, he did not come up with any solution, which is the most intriguing.

And this is just a small thing that he does easily.

Leisurely, a personal soldier who was on duty with Luo Kaixian walked up the stairs from downstairs quickly, bent down and whispered a few words in his ear, and after Luo Kaixian gave an order, he turned around and left in a hurry.

Of course, the leisurely in Luo Kaixian's heart was gone, and after the soldiers left, Huo Ran got up, hugged his fists and made a Luo circle around, "Elders, Luo San has important affairs to leave, so don't accompany him for the time being!" Three or five days later, Luo San will lead the people to go to Bianjing, today a certain word rashly, if the elders have objections, you may wish to wait for the spring to go to Lingzhou for a line, Luo San will sweep the bed and wait! ”

After speaking, without waiting for everyone to reply, he ordered two personal soldiers to take charge of the miscellaneous affairs behind, and called all the other accompanying personal soldiers, and hurried away.
