Chapter 145: Singing a double reed
Chapter 145 Singing a double reed
Qingji and Yang Hu left the mansion in the same car and went straight to Ji Sun Yiru's mansion. In June, when it was very hot, there was not even a hint of wind on the road, and the weeping willows on the roadside hung their branches lazily, only swaying twice occasionally.
The two of them sat in the car and lifted the curtains of the car, but despite this, it was still unbearably hot. At noon, there were few pedestrians on the road, and only a few people walked slowly in the shade of the trees. The two of them were still discussing the means of persuading Ji Sun Yiru in the car, Qingji was talking about his thoughts, Yang Hu listened sideways, listened and listened to his eyes, and suddenly shouted: "Stop!" ”
The carriage stopped, and Qing Ji was surprised: "Brother Tiger, what do you mean?" ”
Yang Hu's gaze crossed over his shoulder, stared at the window and smiled coldly, his face showed a hint of fierceness: "Childe, please sit in the car, you don't have to stand up for him." Yang Hu will not be difficult for him, only a few words to ask him. ”
Qingji was stunned and said, "Who to ask?" He subconsciously turned his head to look, and immediately saw a tall scholar approaching him under the shade of a willow tree. The man was dressed in a rough robe and a cloth towel in his hair, and because of the hot weather, he walked listlessly under the tree, and from time to time he had to pick up his sleeve and wipe the sweat from his forehead.
When Qingji saw this person, he couldn't help but lose his voice and said, "Kong Qiu! ”
At this time, the man had already walked in front of him, Yang Hu bent down and went around Qingji's side, making him flash inward, he sat in front of the window, slapped his hand on the window panel, and shouted: "Is it Kong Qiu who is coming ahead?" Come on, come on, Yang Hu will have a few words with you. ”
Kong Qiu was in the car, and was about to visit his old friend Zhan Shu, when he suddenly heard someone calling him, Kong Qiu also felt strange, and looked up sharply, and saw Yang Hu sitting in a carriage, a pair of tiger eyes staring at him, and couldn't help but be surprised. Yang Hu called in person, he wanted to pretend that he didn't see it, and he couldn't avoid it, but in desperation, he had to bite the bullet to meet him, and before he arrived in front of the car, he gave a distant salute and replied: "Kong Qiu has seen Lord Yang Hu." ”
Yang Hu sat in the car, his fingers knocked on the pane, squinted at Kong Qiu, and said with a big sting: "Kong Qiu, Lu Guo is also a scholar, knowledgeable, and knows the past and the present, Yang Hu has a few questions, and he is puzzled. ”
Kong Qiu was stunned for a moment, knowing that the person who came was not good, so he replied cautiously: "Lord Yanghu is in person, I don't dare to give advice, I don't know what is wrong with Lord Yanghu?" ”
Yang Hu sneered and asked: "If there is a person who prides himself on having the talent of the heavens and the earth, and often has the ambition to help the world and the country, but seeing the decline of the country and the people's livelihood, he obviously has the opportunity to become an official and serve the country and the people, but he is cowardly, pretentious, and evades with the reason of disdain for the company of villains, is the so-called moral person who cherishes his feathers worthy of the word 'benevolence'?" ”
As soon as Kong Qiu heard it, he knew that he was attacking for his refusal to cooperate, but Yang Hu's words were very sharp, no matter how he said it, he couldn't say that it was wrong, the so-called big things are not informal, the big righteousness and the small righteousness, the benefits of the society and the name of the individual, which is more important and which is more important?
Kong Qiu had no choice but to arch his hand and say: "What Lord Yanghu said is that this is a small righteousness, not a great benevolence. ”
Yang Hu laughed: "Understood!" ”
He raised his eyebrows and asked: "If a person with great ambitions has many opportunities to become an official and express his ambitions, but he often loses opportunities again and again because he cares about some small sections, is such a person considered to be knowledgeable and wise?" ”
Kong Qiu knew that he was ridiculing himself for resigning in anger because he reprimanded Ji Sun Yi for watching the dance of the Eight Hundreds, but as a result, he went to Qi Country but was not reused, and now Yang Hu is powerful, Kong Qiu can't confront him face to face, so he has to endure and say: "Such a person can't be regarded as having great wisdom." ”
Yang Hu laughed and said: "Yang Hu understands, it turns out that such a person is neither benevolent nor wise, he learns the "death" etiquette, and reads the "dead book". ”
Kong Qiu's face was so angry that his face was pale, his teeth were clenched, the muscles on his cheeks were pounding suddenly, and his eyes were slightly drooping to suppress the anger in his heart. Yang Hu laughed and slapped the wall of the car and said, "Let's go, let's go." The moon passes, time does not wait, Yang Hu still has to do big things, those stupid people have to be a pretentious cicada under the roadside tree, making endless noise, hahaha......"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Qingji turned his head to look back at Kong Qiu's back, and felt sorry for this person who was walking alone on the road of asking. And Yang Hu humiliated Kong Qiu, and he breathed a bad breath in his heart, but he was in a good mood and his spirit was flying.
When the two arrived at Ji Sun's mansion, because they were taken by Yang Hu, they didn't need to be reported, so they got out of the car, and Yang Hu led the way, passed through the courtyard, and went straight to the back house.
It is said that because of Lu Jun's death, he couldn't mourn himself, so that Ji Sunyi, who was sick in bed, was hugging the beautiful concubine and drinking fine wine at this moment, enjoying the performance of six maiko dressed in colorful clothes.
Hearing that Yanghu was coming to see him, Ji Sun Yiru didn't care, still hugged his concubine, and watched with a smile as the six women in colorful clothes danced in front of the banquet.
"Yang Hu has seen the lord." Yang Hu stepped forward to salute, and the bearded Qingji was waiting at the bottom of the stairs for the time being.
"Well, okay, and wait, where did you find these six Maiko, not only are they as beautiful as flowers, but they are all prostitutes, rare, really rare. When the old man asked them to wait on the pillow, he hugged them left and right, and when they turned around, they were like facing a mirror, haha, it was very interesting. ”
Yang Hu said with a smile: "This is the three pairs of twin beauties selected by Yang Hu from the beauties of Song Kingdom, Chen Kingdom, and my Lu Kingdom and Qi Kingdom, and specially presented them to the lord, just to let the lord taste fresh." ”
"Well, good, good! Haha, the old man is very satisfied, very satisfied. Ji Sun Yiru twisted his beard, lowered his head and took a sip of wine from the hand of the beautiful concubine, but his eyes never looked at Yang Hu from beginning to end.
Yang Hu saw that Ji Sun Yiru was in a good mood, so he walked behind him, sat on his knees, took two steps closer and whispered a few words close to his ear, Ji Sun Yiru's body was shocked, he turned his head to look at the door in surprise, waved his hand and said, "Stop, stop, go down." ”
The maiko and musicians all stopped and withdrew in turn, Ji Sun Yiru patted his beautiful concubine's buttocks and said, "Beauty, you should go out too, the old man has something to tell Yanghu." ”
"Yes!" The beautiful concubine responded, glanced at Yang Hu, and retreated. Ji Sun Yiru waved his hand again, and the two maids behind him who were playing fans also retreated with long-handled feather fans.
After they all went out, Ji Sun Yiru kicked the wooden barrel containing ice next to his feet, quickly stood up, and greeted Qingji in surprise: "Prince Qingji, why did you come back to Qufu?" ”
Qingji stepped forward to salute, sat down at the same table with him, and then told Ji Sun Yiru about his suspicion of Zhan Foot, and Ji Sun Yiru said in confusion: "Zhan Zhi has the opposite intention? ”
He pondered for a moment, shook his head slightly, and said, "This...... I'm afraid Childe is suspicious. The prestige of the Zhan clan in my Lu country is far inferior to that of my Sanhuan family, even if the Zhan clan is completely reversed, it will not be able to make any waves. What's more, Zhan Shu is a square gentleman, this person will never oppose me, and he will never be unfavorable to the Lu country. As for Zhan Yuan, he has long since left the door of the Zhan clan and has become a notorious thief, except for Zhan Yu, who is still a brother with his mother, others have long stopped treating him as a member of the Zhan family. He wants to rebel? How many centaurs can he pull? Where do the soldiers come from, and where does the money come from? ”
Qingji glanced at Yang Hu and deliberately exaggerated: "My lord, it's very easy to talk about people. For example, today is turbulent, and there are not many strong men in the countryside who travel in all directions to find a way to survive, and if they want to recruit soldiers, as long as there is food, it is as easy as a hand.
I was on the Cangxia Ridge, and I saw that there were many houses, not only many strong men, but also women and children, countless fields on the mountain, and he had abandoned the door for nearly 20 years.
Speaking of money, although Zhan Zhi was not a disaster in the Lu State, but Song Weiqi and Chen Zhuguo suffered a lot from it, and they attacked the city and plundered the land, and I don't know how much wealth they looted, do you think, what is the use of him plundering this lot of money? ”
Ji Sun Yiru couldn't help but be a little moved when he heard this, Yang Hu pretended to have just heard the news, and said in a hurry: "Damn, where is he going to set up camp?" Why did you choose Philadelphia? It was a feudal town that my lord had run for many years, and it was also the main road connecting to the East China Sea, if there was a real war, not only would he take away all the grain from Philadelphia, but also the salt from the East China Sea would not be able to be transported, so ...... That loss ......"
As soon as he said this, Ji Sun Yiru suddenly changed color, realizing that this matter was related to his vital interests, no matter whether the news was true or not, he couldn't be careless.
Ji Sun Yiru said movingly: "In this way, the old man should take advantage of the fact that he has not yet started an incident and transfer troops to encircle and suppress Cangxialing?" ”
Seeing that he was in a hurry, Qingji comforted him and said, "If you talk about encirclement and suppression, you can't do it." Cangxia Ridge relies on danger, easy to defend and difficult to attack, non-350,000 troops can not attack, and behind Cangxia Ridge is a reckless mountains, if you can't hold it, you have to flee to the mountains, and there is no way to catch up. Besides, how much does it cost to move a large army? Now although we speculate that Zhan Jiao has an objection, after all, there is no solid evidence, if we rashly raise an army to crusade, although it can be made in the name of suppressing bandits for the country, it is just that this consumes your strength, and let the Shu and Meng families sit on the benefits of the fishermen, then it is not possible. ”
Ji Sun Yiru said worriedly: "If you can't fight, you can't succeed if you don't fight, so what should it be?" ”
Qingji frowned and said, "Qingji came to ask Lord Jisun to make a decision because he had no idea." ”
Ji Sun Yiru locked his eyebrows, twisted his beard and just didn't speak. Yang Hu pondered for a long time on the side, and suddenly patted his thigh and said, "Lord, I have an idea, I don't know what the lord thinks." ”
