Xie Ze frowned, looking at Wang Fang's gaze, revealing a faint coldness.

"It's really ......," Wang Gong suddenly felt like a man's back.

"What's the old question?" Li Ran keenly felt the slight change in Xie Ze's gaze, looked at Wang Fang and asked.

Wang Fang glanced at Xie Ze, and then said with a smile: "It's still those old topics, what is loyal or disloyal." ”

Li Ran understood as soon as he heard it, and turned his head to look at Xie Ze.

"Ignore it, let's go." Xie Ze stretched out his hand to hold Li Ran's hand, and was about to follow her out.

"Wait." Li Ran gently pulled back, looked at Wang Fang and asked, "Is it related to me?" ”

Wang Fang suddenly looked embarrassed, glanced at Xie Ze, smiled dryly and did not speak.

"Go and hear it." Li Ran pulled La Xie Ze again.

Xie Ze frowned, and after a moment, he hummed and returned to the pavilion with Li Ran.

In the pavilion, and in the sheds around it, many people had gathered.

"Come in, please sit down." Wang Fang stood in the middle, raised his hands, pressed them down, and said with a smile.

Those who entered the pavilion found chairs and sat on them, but those who did not grab them sat on the goosenecks on the four sides of the pavilion, and those who did not grab chairs or squeezed into goosenecks simply sat on the ground.

Inside the pavilion everyone sat down, and outside the pavilion, everyone looked down at the high, and when they looked at the people standing in the pavilion or sitting on chairs, they saw very clearly.

"You discuss." Xie Ze confessed, sat next to Old Lady Xie, Li Ran sat down next to Xie Ze, took a cup of tea and raised it to his lips, and looked at the scholars in the pavilion.

"Let's move on, the question just now ......"

Wang Fang was halfway through his words when he was interrupted by a loud voice.

"It's rare for the prince and the princess to come, the prince is responsible for the defense of Gyeonggi, I'm afraid that I won't be able to stay for a long time, please Rong Xiaoke say a few words to the princess first."

Xie Ze's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at a middle-aged scholar who squeezed in from outside the pavilion.

The middle-aged man is very popular, a little thin, a moon-white robe inside, a gray squirrel skin moon-white silk cloak outside, with a smile, squeezed sideways through the crowd and entered the pavilion.

"Xiao Ke's surname is Qin, a single name is a benefit character, and he comes from Rong'an City."

Qin Yi bowed his hand, straightened up, and introduced himself with a smile.

Wang Gong frowned and thought about it, he really couldn't remember which Qin family in Rong'an City was a scholarly family.

Wang Gong looked at Old Lady Xie, Old Lady Xie met his gaze and shook his head as if nothing, he didn't think of where there was a Qin clan in Rong'an City.

"Xiao Ke has been dull since he was a child, when he was twenty-two or three years old, he was admitted to Xiucai, and the next year, Rong'an City was returned to the emperor."

Qin Yi's tone was gentle, and when he talked about the emperor, he arched his hand upward.

Xie Ze looked at him coldly and didn't say a word.

Li Ran looked at Qin Yi with no expression on his face.

"Emperor Tuorenzong and the emperor's blessing, Xiao Ke is in Rong'an City, such a chaotic world, for more than 40 years, has been stable until now."

Qin Yi arched his hand at Li Ran, and then arched his hand at Xie Ze.

In the past ten years, Xiao Ke has buried his head in the book of sages, and has seen the prosperity and liveliness of Rong'an City as before. Seeing that the autumn in Rong'an City is becoming more and more lively every time.

Over the years, I have often heard that a certain relative and friend, a certain friend, went to the capital for the Spring Festival, or was in or not, and what I talked about and thought was how to be an official in the future and how to be in the next subject. ”

Qin Yi looked at Li Ran and smiled bitterly.

"Xiao Ke is very sad, such a world, such a world, where is the loyalty?

People in the world often complain: Heaven and earth are unkind, and they regard all things like dogs.

But what is the difference between man, who regards himself as the spirit of all things, and all things? What's the difference with a dog? ”

Xie Ze stared at Qin Yi, who was only looking at Li Ran talking, his eyes shrunk slightly, and he was about to speak, Li Ran reached over and pressed on his hand, "I'll talk to him." ”

Xie Ze hummed and leaned back in his chair.

"I understand what the gentleman said.

It just so happens that there is one thing that I think is not far from what Mr. said. ”

Li Ran turned her head to look at the purple eggplant and parsley standing behind her, and pointed at the two of them to signal Qin Yi.

"The two of them, the handmaidens who waited close to me, were both very clever and capable.

The two of them have been waiting by Mrs. Shen's side since they were very young, and they only came to me from Mrs. Shen's side a few months ago.

They are by my side, and this dedication is no worse than when they were by Mrs. Shen's side.

Then are they disloyal to Old Madam Shen? ”

Li Ran paused, didn't wait for Qin Yi to speak, and continued: "This, I think I have to ask them themselves."

As slaves and maids, they feel that they are the slaves of the Xie family, the slaves of Old Madam Shen, or my slaves.

If they feel that they are the slaves and maids of the Xie family, there is no difference between being loyal to me, being loyal to Old Madam Shen, or being loyal to other members of the Xie family in the future, isn't it? ”

"I understand what the princess means, what if they switch to another family?"

Qin Yi pointed to the purple eggplant and parsley.

"If the Xie family is still there, they will switch to another family."

Li Ran paused.

"The reasons are roughly divided into two reasons, one is that the Xie family is sorry for them, and the other is that after they weigh it, they feel that it is more beneficial to switch to another family.

The latter is very clear, and the former is only afraid of talking about things and having different opinions.

If the Xie family is gone, the clan is wiped out, or it is completely wiped out, and the two of them are still alive and go to another family, what shouldn't they do?

Beside Mrs. An, there are two martial maids who used to settle down in the past, and now they are following me as offerings, from the An family to the Wang family, and then to me, does Mr. think they are traitors? ”

"What if the Xie family has an enemy? What if they voted for the enemies of the Xie clan? ”

Qin Yi stared at Li Ran and asked.

"A big clan like the Xie family, if the clan is wiped out one day, the root cause must not be outside, but inside.

The former Liang enjoyed the country for more than 400 years, and when he arrived at Renzong, it was difficult to return, and rebellions broke out, and finally fell apart until the country was destroyed.

I read some articles, and you all say that it is not Renzong's fault, it is from a certain generation, or even from the day of the former Liang Xiangguo, it began to fall step by step.

If this is the case, who is the enemy of the front beam? Isn't it the Lu royal family themselves? ”

"Isn't it wrong, courtiers?" Qin Yi chased after him.

"Then can you clarify the fault of every person and everything in the past 400 years?"

Qin Yi met Li Ran's gaze, pursed his lips tightly, and did not answer her question.

"It's still our family's business, in addition to the two of them, a few years ago, I also met with the head of the village.

There is a Zhuangtou, nearly seventy years old, who has been a Zhuangtou since he was in his twenties, and in more than 40 years, the Zhuangzi he manages has changed hands to five masters.

He said that he only managed Zhuangzi well and was worthy of the master, and as for who the master was, it was not something he could manage.

The Zhuangzi he manages is the best one among our Zhuangzi, and the accounts of decades are clear and clear.

Do you think he's a loyal character?

I think he was loyal to his character, to his duty, to his fields, and to the crops and tenants.

As for who the master of Zhuangzi is and how to change, it is indeed not something he can control, is it? ”

"Princess...... these words" Qin Yi looked at Li Ran, and didn't say the rest of the words, only laughed.

"Now that the new dynasty has been established, the emperor and the crown prince are extremely virtuous, these words, which can still be said, will probably not be able to be said in a few years.

Can't you say, isn't that the truth?

Nine times out of ten, no one in the world will be like Mr. Wang, who has read books and has the leisure to think about loyalty and righteousness, and to think about what it means to be a human being, and to think a lot.

Most of the people in the world get up before dawn to work, and they are busy until dark, and they are not idle for a moment.

Every day, every month, every year, I am busy and busy, I do my best, and all I want is just two words.

The rest, people like Mr. who read, in addition to being warm and full, give birth to ambitions, to cultivate their own family and level the world, everyone, cultivate their own body and mind, to how to calculate the family, and then how to level the world, must have their own ideas.

Everyone, for loyalty, righteousness and kindness, must also have their own thoughts.

Some people die for those who know that they have died, some people live and die with the country, and some people only want to keep one side safe and ask for the people's lives.

Which one is good and which one is not? Which is the right path? ”

Qin Yi looked at Li Ran and didn't speak.

"It is up to each man to confirm it in his own heart, and there is no need to say more. Let's go and see the lights. Xie Ze stood up and stretched out his hand to pull Li Ran up.

"Hmm." Li Ran stood up, walked out of the pavilion side by side with Xie Ze, and went to the back garden.

Qin Yi looked at Li Ran and Xie Ze who were not in a lantern, and looked at Wang Fang in a trance, shaking his head slowly, "I still don't dare to agree." ”

"The words of the princess and the prince are very clear.

This matter is like the Dharma, everyone has their own experience, everyone has their own understanding, and everyone has their own way.

The gentleman does not need to agree, and others do not need to agree with the gentleman. ”

Wang Ji said with a smile.

"The mountain chief is very true, alas."

Qin Yi sighed, hung his head, went down the steps, looked up at the moon, stayed for a long time, lowered his head, and walked forward.

……………………

Early in the morning of the 16th, the court was dispersed, the prince signaled Xie Ze, and the two went out of the hall together.

The prince looked at Xie Ze and said with a smile: "I heard that you and your daughter-in-law went to Taiping Xingguo Temple yesterday to guide those scholars?" ”

"It's not about pointing, it's about going to see the lights." Xie Ze corrected.

"Your daughter-in-law's words, now that the new dynasty has been established, the emperor and the crown prince are extremely virtuous, and she can still say it, she really dares to say it."

The prince sighed.

Xie Ze didn't answer.

"It makes sense, your daughter-in-law is very good."

"Well, I think so too." Xie Ze agreed.

The crown prince paused and glanced at Xie Ze, "General Xie, I praise your daughter-in-law, you should be humble and say: Your Highness has won the award." ”

"She didn't win the award, but she was really good." Xie Ze answered unceremoniously.

The prince sighed, and then ha, laughing and waving his hands, sighing and sighing.

"I told her that you can't say anything like this in the future, at least not in public."

Xie Ze put his hands behind his back and said slowly.

"Daddy and I both think she is good and clear. However, I have to explain a word, so as not to be misinterpreted and framed by the scheming villain, which is not good for herself, and for you.

After all, there are many things and many truths in this world that can be done but not said.

Alas! Hypocrisy! ”

The prince also put his hands behind his back, sighed a few times, squinted at Xie Ze, and laughed.

"Daddy praised yesterday and said that your daughter-in-law said it well. Daddy is a person who just likes to be stunned. ”

Xie Ze stared straight ahead, ignoring the prince's last words.
