23 Gongsun Martingale Sees Qin Gong (1)

Duke of Qin's Mansion. It is a hall facing north and south. It is the only tall building built on a six-foot-high stone foundation in the Qin Mansion. The nine stone steps show the majesty of the Chamberlain. The wooden eaves in the hall are blackened, and the red paint of the wooden pillars is mottled, revealing the poverty of the Qin Mansion. A black dragon with teeth and claws is stepping on the south wall. The only ornament in this hall shows the power of the Duke of Qin, and it is also the totem of the worship of the Qin State. Under the Black Dragon. On an earthen platform three zhang wide and three feet wide, three feet above the ground, an old mat was paved. On the table were stacked with bundles of bamboo slips. At the back end of Jane, a tall, black and thin, broad-shouldered, huge head, big mouth, rhinoplasty, and blazing eyes, wearing a seven-crown and wearing a black Yan's robe, Qin Guogong - twenty-one-year-old Yingquliang. The dignified Duke of Qin seems to be unaccustomed to this kind of solemnity. After Gongsun Ying completed the worship ceremony, he could see at a glance the frizziness and excited subtle demeanor of the Duke of Qin. Qin Guogong was very excited and happy. Because Jing Jian added oil and vinegar to report to him Gongsun Marting's qiē,! In particular, the dedication to the King of Wei (the first enemy to be defeated and a little feared by the Duke of Qin) made the young Duke of Qin have an excellent impression of Wei Ying. When Jing Jian reported that Gongsun Ying was going to come to Qin, Qin Gong thought that he was blowing in God. How could a son-in-law of the Wei State Tsukasa and a wizard that the Qi State wanted to invite many times come to the Qin State? When Jing Jian reported that Gongsun Ying had arrived in Liyang, he had confidence in himself. He thought in his heart that if this Gongsun Ying was really ruthless enough to be a genius as Meng Langao said, he would use this incident to severely refute those ministers who looked down on him in their hearts and disobeyed him on the outside. He wants to give him all the rights and let this Gongsun Ying be his own doctor.

He stood on the stage, thinking of this, excitedly knocking on the desk with his hands. He originally wanted to learn from Mu Gong's etiquette to the Magi, and was ready to step down from the stage to bring this great sage to the stage and sit with him. But as soon as he saw the Jinxian crown (Jinxian crown, the symbol hat of civil officials during the Warring States Period, according to the length of the ornamental beam on the crown, indicating the rank of the official) on Daxian's head, he was extremely beautiful, and he was extremely curious, so he couldn't help but stare at this crown and figure out how to make it. Qin Gong's speculation caused Gongsun Ying to not get the due response after the salute. And lying on the ground can't stand up. Jing Jian who was standing on the side didn't know what the reason was for the lord, so he let Gongsun Ying lie on the ground, so anxious that he didn't dare to shout, and used the usual old actions to prompt, and ignored it, so he hurriedly guessed the reason. When the two people who were lying on their stomachs and standing were in a hurry, Qin opened his mouth: "Sir! Your Jinxian crown, the crown beam is hollowed out with nanmu, and then applied with silk to two layers, and it is made of several times? The crown ornament beam is carved with green jade, and then cleverly inlaid? Moreover, is it only covered with silk after the jade is inlaid? "I see. Jing Jian was afraid that Gongsun Ying would misunderstand and look down on the lord and offend the temper of the scholar, so he hurriedly explained: "Sir! The lord is my Great Qin crown master. When Chu was the envoy, the king of Chu came out of the skillful hands of the prince. Gongsun Ying didn't know Jing Jian's thoughts, so he took advantage of the situation to reply: "Qin Guogong is an expert." It's really worthy of the master's opinion! When Qin Gong heard this, he was praised by the great sage, and after being happy, his tone changed: "Alas——! It's a pity that Qin State has no skilled craftsmen to make this crown. The widow is busy with state affairs, and the Qin State does not have such a beautiful crown——! "Qin Guogong doesn't have to work for the trivial matter of making the crown. With such trivial matters, I can train a group of Qin workers in just over a month, so that all Qin officials can be replaced with new crowns within a year. "Gongsun Martingale is not afraid of flashing his tongue, and directly undertakes the task of making this crown." Is this serious? When Qin Gong heard this, his tone was so loud, he asked a question in disbelief. How dare Keqing deceive Qin Guogong. Don't say that the crown is made, that is, other skillful utensils can be adjusted to Qin Gong. A year later, if Qin Guogong wanted any ingenious things, Qin Gong could make any ingenious things. "Gongsun Martingale immediately swore an oath." Good! True Dr. too! You will train a hundred Qin workers for the widows, and let them overwhelm the skilled craftsmen of the six countries! "As soon as the Duke of Qin heard that the widowed Great Qin, in other aspects, could not catch up with the Six Kingdoms for a while, and now there is a virtuous talent, who can catch up with the Six Kingdoms in a year's time, in terms of making clever tools and clever things, so he happily sent a task to Gongsun Marting. After sending the mission, when he saw why this guest was lying on the ground, he asked very curiously: "Hey!" Hello! Why are you lying on the ground talking to the widow? The widow has been to the Wei State, and he has never seen this kind of etiquette of dialogue between monarchs and ministers? "Poof, Jing Jian couldn't help it, and laughed out loud." Look, sir! Even Jing Jian was laughing at this pedantic Six Kingdoms etiquette. Sir, please get up! Ju Xi spoke. The widowed Qin State does not promote this set of customs. In order to highlight the demeanor of the Qin State, the Duke of Qin used this to satirize the etiquette and customs of the Six Kingdoms.

Gongsun Ying hurriedly gave a thank-you gift and got up from the ground. Jing Jian couldn't help it, and reminded in a low voice: "Lord! It's not that the Six Nations have such rituals. But the lord forgot to give Mr. Ci to get up for the sake of making the crown. Without the lord's order, Keqing had no choice but to lie on the ground and return to the lord's words. "What? You are a foolish butcher, and the widow wants you, just to remind the widow not to be rude? Mr! No need to thank the widow. The gentleman should scold the widow for being rude! Qin Gong glared at Jing Jian and said with a smile on his face, how could there be the slightest taste of reprimand. Jing Jian didn't care whether Qin Gong was trained or not, he was amused by Qin Gong, and asked for an official position for Gongsun Ying: "Lord! Since you have entrusted the matter of making weapons to your husband, and he has promised to overwhelm the six nations within a year. When will the lord be appointed to the doctorate position? Otherwise, Mr. will have no way to make clever things for the lord. When Qin Gong heard it, this was Jing Jian asking for an official position for Keqing, to remind him not to forget the theme of this meeting; So I immediately realized that I had made the mistake of forgetting the big. He corrected himself by reprimanding Jing Jian: "Good Jing Jian you! In the council hall, he asked for an official position from a widow for the guest secretary! What are you guilty of? After hearing Duke Qin's reprimand, Jing Jian still stood in place, kneeling down to apologize for his sins without courtesy, and said with a smile: "Lord! The Jing Supervisor should be rewarded. Jing Jian is in the celebration of the lord, and he has a talent! Qin Gong deliberately slapped the case and shouted: "The widow wants you to congratulate? The widow is just fascinated by the mind for a while, and it is the fault of the widow to forget the virtuous. Keqing, please forgive the widow! What the Qin State lacks at the moment is not a doctor who makes clever tools and beautiful things, but a virtuous and capable minister who strengthens Qin. Invite the guest to help the widow! Gongsun Ying had already understood the double reed played by the master and servant, and from this double reed, it was clear that Jing Jian was in the heart of Gong Qin, and it was really as Jing Jian said to himself, there was no one to compare in Qin State. It seems that in the Chu State, Jing Jian and Qin Gong have formed a life-and-death relationship, and Qin Gong treats Jing Jian as a confidant. If you want to make a difference in the Qin State, you can't do without the support and help of Jing Jian, otherwise you don't want to show your talents in the Qin State. Thinking of this, Gongsun Ying arched his hands, and with the atmosphere of the scene, he opened with a congratulatory message: "Qin Guogong! Although it is the first time for me to stand in the political hall of Qin Guogong, the frank and upright style of action of you and Lord Zaifu is really gratifying and congratulatory! "The widow is obviously wrong, why can he be happy and congratulated?" As soon as Qin Gong heard that Keqing also followed him, he thought that this Gongsun Martingale seemed to be a sycophant, so he was a little suspicious of his character, so in order to dispel his suspicions, he asked bluntly. Gongsun Ying smiled: "Yes." Gratifying! Like this kind of king, the fish and water between the ministers are blended. Shiyun: The two of them are concentric, and their profits are gold. With one heart, it stinks like an orchid. Congratulations! As the lord of a country, He Qingong attaches great importance to the facts, and dares to admit his mistakes in public, ministers, and guests. Poetry: The stain of white silica can still be grinded, and the stain of words cannot be done. Dare to recognize right and wrong, like white silicon. Therefore, Keqing congratulates Qin Guogong for this kind of national style of strengthening the country! "Gongsun Ying, who is rich in five cars, said nice things about quoting scriptures, which was easy to come by, and it was obviously a wrong thing and a violation of the courtesy system of the ministers, and he said that it was the wind of strengthening the country and rejuvenating it.

These words made Qin Gong very useful after hearing it. Hearing this, he stroked his palms and smiled: "Well said! True sages, capable people also. Jing Jian, you have to learn more from Mr. in the future! The widow did not listen to you, and said that you were so obedient. As soon as Gongsun Ying heard that Qin Gong liked it, he took the opportunity to show off his knowledge, so that Qin Gong left a good first impression here, and immediately grabbed the end of Qin Gong's words and continued: "Qin Guogong! Keqing just told the truth. If there are any words against the ear, please forgive Qin Guogong first! Poetry: Unbiased, follow the king's righteousness, do nothing, follow the king's way (poetry, Spring and Autumn Warring States, scholarly atmosphere, speak with poetry, to show the level of knowledge, and then popular in all countries, those who do not know poetry are ridiculed and looked down upon. But Qin Yueyi reformed, there was no such vice, and Hou Martingale also removed the habit of quoting righteousness). "Good! Supervisor Jing recommends that you are a widowed Baili Xi and a doctor of Wuxi. Although Dr. Wuqi can't write poetry, he will help my ancestor Miao Gong dominate the Western Ring. Qin Gong listened to Keqing's obedient words, which were continuous, although they sounded good, but there was no content, so he immediately turned to the topic and stopped him. As soon as Gongsun Yang heard that Qin Gong had turned to the topic, he knew that the test was coming, and this test was really not easy to reach; Because Qin Gong suddenly promoted himself to such a high position as Doctor Wuxi, if he didn't pay attention to it a little, he would disappoint Qin Gong. Qin Gong's disappointment meant his own defeat. So he immediately used humility to push away this overly appreciative recommendation: "Qin Guogong! Keqing didn't dare to take it. That's the recommended word of Lord Jing. How dare Keqing's talent be compared with Baili Xi? I don't dare to compare with Dr. Wuxi. Qin Gong, who turned to the topic, was bent on finding his helper, and he had great hopes for Gongsun Yang, and when he heard this Gongsun Yang say that he was not a talented doctor, an inexplicable fire in his heart suddenly rose. You don't have the talent of a doctor, what dare you dare to come to the Qin State? Don't see my job seeker? So he said impatiently: "Slow! Qin Guo does not need to be humble. If you weren't a widow's doctor, the widow would have sent the guest out of Qin. Tell the law of the strong country of the widows! ”
