Chapter Seventy-Six: The Strange Book of the World

The funeral has been completed, and the burial period is determined by the priest, and the coffin of the eldest grandson Sheng needs to be parked in the house for 18 days before being buried.

After the funeral, enter the period of filial piety.

The eldest grandson Wuji, as the heir and sister-in-law, went to the original eldest grandson family cemetery in Xiaoling, south of Chang'an City, and built a shed next to the tomb of the eldest grandson Sheng to guard filial piety, and the filial piety period was three years.

The eldest grandson Wuyi Ding was worried at home, and he also set up a straw shed in his courtyard and lived in the shed.

Zhen and Ku both moved out of the main house and lived in the ear room.

The eldest grandson Wuxian and his wife heard that the long room and the second room were arranged according to the requirements of filial piety, and in order to prevent the name of unfilial piety, they also acted according to the long room and the second room.

------

The Sui Dynasty etiquette system, wearing filial piety clothes are not allowed to enter and leave the public gate, the official's parents died, and he needs to worry for three years, that is, he has to take a leave of absence for three years and keep filial piety at home.

Before the eldest grandson Wuji went to the cemetery to guard filial piety, he handed over the power of the outer courtyard to the eldest grandson Wuyi.

In this way, the Changsun General's Mansion formed a situation in which the eldest grandson Wuyi was in charge of the outer courtyard and the Zhen family was in charge of the inner court.

Although the eldest grandson Wuxian and his wife were dissatisfied, they were afraid of the suppression of the eldest grandson, and they did not dare to show any complaints.

Therefore, since the beginning of filial piety, the entire Changsun General's Mansion has been relatively peaceful.

------

During the period of filial piety, she couldn't go out, so Guanyin followed Gao Qiuniang to read and write in the house.

When the eldest grandson Sheng was seriously ill, Guanyin already knew that she had a marriage contract with Li Shimin, and she also heard that her father left some books as her dowry.

She was very curious about what kind of books were so valuable, and when her father was seriously ill, he still remembered to keep it for himself.

One day, she couldn't hold it back, so she asked Gao Qiuniang:

"I heard Grandpa say that there are some books for me as a dowry, I don't know what kind of books they are? Can I take a look at it first?"

Gao Qiuniang smiled and said, "What are you asking for? It's all that you can't understand, and it's for the people to see after you get married."

Guanyin was coquettish, "Whether you understand it or not, why don't I take a look?"

Gao Qiuniang saw that she insisted on seeing it, so she went to the main room, retrieved a red sandalwood bookcase, and put it on several cases in the Luohan bed.

------

Guanyin couldn't wait to open the bookcase and saw that there were more than a dozen yellowed books inside.

She took out the book, and there were "Guiguzi", "The Seven Techniques of Yin Fu in the Book of Benjing", "The Art of War", "Wei Yanzi", "Sun Tzu's Sutra", and "The Records of the Biansai Notes" in five volumes.

Gao Qiuniang flipped through the books next to her, and said while reading: ""Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Wei Yanzi", and "Sun Tzu's Sutra" are used to fight wars with soldiers."

"The Notes of the Frontier Fortress are written by your grandfather himself, and they are all examples and experiences of using troops in the northern Xinjiang and pacifying the Turks."

"This "Guiguzi" and "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu of the Benjing" are two strange books, written by Mr. Guigu Wang Xu, a strategist of the Warring States Period, and they are treasures of strategy and self-cultivation."

------

After listening to Gao Qiuniang's introduction, Guanyin said, "I don't read books about fighting with soldiers, I love to read strange books the most, see where it is strange?"

Gao Qiuniang laughed and said, "You are a little child, don't waste your efforts, many people spend their lives studying these two books, and they can't even get a glimpse of their mysteries."

Guanyin didn't believe it, "Is it really that difficult?"

Gao Qiuniang nodded firmly, "It's so difficult!"

Guanyin looked up at her mother, and asked, "Have you ever seen it?"

Gao Qiuniang recalled the past, "I've seen it. When your grandfather was not at home, I spent half a year on these two books."

"As a result, I only know the words, but I don't know what they mean. Fortunately, when your grandfather returned home, I suddenly realized it after he clicked it."

------

Guanyin said happily, "Does that mean A-Niang can understand?"

Gao Qiuniang smiled and said, "A-Niang basically understands now, but there is no place for it."

Guanyin held Gao Qiuniang's arm and begged, "A-Niang, can you also give me a touch?"

Gao Qiuniang saw Guanyin pestering to watch, and thought, Ah Wan is not an ordinary child, when she was learning Go, she didn't expect her to have such a good understanding, maybe watching "Guiguzi" will be different from ordinary people, you might as well let her try.

Thinking of this, she said to Guanyin, "If you really want to watch it, first read the Seven Techniques of the Yin Fu of the Benjing."

Guanyin was puzzled, "Why do you want to read the Seven Techniques of Yin Fu in this Sutra first?"

------

In order to stimulate Guanyin's interest, Gao Qiuniang deliberately sold a pass,

"If you want to know why, first listen to A-Niang tell you a story."

When Guanyin heard that Gao Qiuniang was going to tell a story, she jumped and applauded, "A-Niang, tell me quickly."

Gao Qiuniang smiled and said, "Okay, let's sit and talk."

Gao Qiuniang put away the books on the case one by one, put them in the box, took off her shoes and went to the Luohan bed.

Guanyin also got on the Luohan bed and sat opposite several cases.

The two sat down, and Gao Qiuniang asked Guanyin, "Does Ah Wan know about Su Qin?"

Guanyin replied, "When Su and Qin were in the Warring States period, they established a "joint vertical" alliance to fight against the people of Qin."

Gao Qiuniang boasted: "It seems that Ah Wan has not read much, and she still knows Su Qin. Today, A-Niang will tell you the story of Su Qin."

------

Gao Qiuniang asked Guanyin, "When Su Qin first began to lobby the princes of various countries, he traveled abroad for many years, and all the money he brought was exhausted, and he was poor, and he didn't even have a way to go home, and finally he returned home by begging."

"You know, why did you become famous all over the world?"

Guanyin didn't know, shook her head gently, and looked at Gao Qiuniang expectantly.

Gao Qiuniang told the story of Su Qin to Guanyin before learning the "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu of the Benjing".

------

When Su Qin was young, he joined the disciple of Mr. Guigu and learned the art of vertical and horizontal in Zhongnan Mountain.

Later, after completing his studies, he went down the mountain and traveled around the world, lobbying the monarchs of various countries to reuse him.

But the monarchs were not interested in his proposed statecraft, and no one took his advice.

Su Qin ran out of money and had to beg to return home.

After returning home, his family laughed at Su Qin, disgusted him for being useless in studying, and studied art abroad for many years, but in the end he achieved nothing.

His brother and sister-in-law ridiculed him, "The customs of the Zhou people, governing the industry, making business and making money, is the foundation of survival."

"And thou hast sacrificed thy own to make a living by the benefit of thy tongue. Isn't it self-inflicted hardship to be poor!"

When Su Qin heard this, he was ashamed, so he closed the door and took out all the books to read them one by one.

As he watched, he complained, "What's the use of having more books?"

------

Just when he was full of complaints, he suddenly turned out the book "The Seven Techniques of Yin Fu of the Benjing".

In the past, Mr. Guigu told him that this was the study of self-cultivation, but he never took it to heart and did not read it seriously.

Su Qin remembered that Mr. Guigu once said that self-cultivation is the key to success in life.

It's just that at that time, he devoted all his energy to scheming and strategy, and had no intention of reading this book carefully.

Thinking about it today, I have repeatedly encountered setbacks, or it may be related to not understanding this book.

------

Since then, Su Qin has studied the "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu of the Benjing", day and night, with his head hanging on the beam, and the cone is piercing.

After a year, I feel that I have benefited a lot, and I am full of ambition and say, "Now I can convince the monarchs of the world."

Su Qin left home again and lobbied the monarchs of various countries.

The seer saw King Zhou Xian, but King Xian did not believe him.

As far west as the Qin State, King Hui was reluctant to use the strategy he proposed.

When he went east to Zhao State, Zhao Suhou's brother Fengyangjun was in charge of the dictatorship and ignored him.

finally went to Yan Country and waited for more than a year to see Yan Wenhou.

Yan Wenhou told Su Qin, "Your strategy is very good, but the Yan Kingdom is too small, the west is strong Zhao, and the south is strong Qi."

"If you can make Zhao, Qi and Yan befriend, I will make the entire Yan Kingdom obey you."

------

So Yan Wenhou funded Su Qin's carriage and horse Jinbo to lobby in Zhao State.

At that time, Fengyangjun was dead, and Su Qin was able to see Zhao Suhou.

Marquis Zhao Suhou appreciated Su Qin's plan, and sent him a chariot to drive a hundred times, carrying a thousand gold, a hundred pairs of white bi, and a thousand pure splendor, to contact the princes of other countries.

In the end, the alliance was completed, and Su played and admired the seal of the six countries, so that the Qin State did not dare to go east to the valley for fifteen years.

------

Gao Qiuniang finished telling the story and said:

"The reason why Su Qin succeeded in the end was that he had thoroughly understood the Seven Techniques of the Yin Fu of this Sutra."

Guanyin put her hands on her hands, looked at her mother, and listened quietly.

After listening to Gao Qiuniang's story about Su Qin, she felt more and more the magic of "The Seven Techniques of Yin Fu in this Sutra".

She was eager to flip through the book to see what was written in it.

Guanyin took out the "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu of the Book of Scriptures" from the bookcase again, and said to Gao Qiuniang, "I am going to study it now."

Gao Qiuniang smiled and provoked her, "Don't look at your enthusiasm now, maybe in two days, you will have a headache when you see this book."

Guanyin is coquettish, not relying on Gao Qiuniang, "A-Niang underestimates A-maid again, so I won't be as unbearable as you say."

------

From then on, Guanyin began to study the "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu of the Book of Scriptures", and indulged in the book every day.

At the beginning, as Gao Qiuniang said, she opened this book, and she really only knew the words, but she didn't know what it meant.

But Guanyin is a girl who can calm down and focus on studying.

She found a copy of "Shuowen Jie Zi", and when she encountered a text she didn't understand, she found its true meaning through "Shuo Wen Jie Zi".

Guanyin locked herself in Hanmozhai and concentrated on reading.

Fuchu could no longer hear her giggles and laughter.

------

Guanyin is dedicated to reading in Hanmo Zhai.

On the other side of Xiushui Pavilion, a group of people were suffocated.

The days of filial piety are boring, wearing filial piety clothes, you can't go out of the house, and you can't go to other houses.

The eldest grandson Zhan and the eldest grandson gradually felt that life was too difficult.

I can only read, practice boxing, and practice stone locks every day.

Since the square in the garden is too small, it is simply not possible to practice mounted archery.

The two complained that if they continued like this, the riding and archery skills would be wasted.

------

On this day, the eldest grandson Shunde and the eldest grandson Wuao came to play.

Several people talked about the bitterness in their hearts, and they were all full of unhappiness.

The eldest grandson Shunde suggested,

"Why don't we go to the Chengnan Manor, which is your own home, and you will be filial there."

Changsun Zhan, Changsun Hong and others all felt that this was a good idea.

The eldest grandson Zhan said, "Chengnan Manor is only two miles away from Xiaolingyuan, and we can often go to see the fourth uncle."

"He's alone there, he's going to stay there for more than two years, and it's inevitable to be lonely alone."

The eldest grandson Shunde remembered Li Shimin in his heart and wanted to invite him to go with him.

"I went to see the people and asked him if he would like to go."

"If he also goes with him, we will study and practice martial arts together, and our progress will be faster."

------

The eldest grandson, Shunde and the eldest grandson, are brothers of a great-grandfather.

So he basically doesn't have to keep filial piety for his eldest grandson, he is not restricted from going anywhere, and he can go to Li Shimin at any time.

The eldest grandson Zhan urgently pleaded with the eldest grandson Shunde,

"Then, Uncle Shunde will go in these two days."

"After you say that, do you want to go and talk to your grandmother to see if she lets you go?"

The eldest grandson Shunde explained, "Sister-in-law, naturally I will say it, but it is estimated that only a few of us can go this time, and Sister-in-law and Auntie will not be able to go again."

Eldest Sun Zhan said, "We are not children, and if our grandmother doesn't go, we won't cause trouble."

------

The matter of going to Chengnan Manor was agreed in this way, and the eldest grandson Shunde invited Li Shimin, and then went to ask Gao Qiuniang.

On the second day, the eldest grandson Shunde brought back good news, Li Shimin was willing to go, and Gao Qiuniang also agreed to the requests of several people.

The eldest grandson Shunde combined with the eldest grandson Wuyi, and the eldest grandson Wuyi made various arrangements.

A few days later, Li Shimin, Changsun Shunde, Changsun Wuao, Changsun Hong, Changsun Zhan and Changsun Gradual, with their servants, stayed in Chengnan Manor again.
