Chapter Eighty-Seven: During the heated debate, Xiao Tong was distracted
In the rich house, Xu Guogong relayed a sentence from Qiu Dazai, and suddenly cleared the confusion in Xiao Tong's heart, which couldn't help but make his eyes light up, and the problem that puzzled him for more than a year was suddenly solved.
Thinking about his previous arrangement, although his thinking was excellent, he inadvertently got into the tip of the horns.
He lived in the whirlpool of the battle of the giant room, and he had long been unable to grasp the situation, so he entrusted his family to the care of a prince, although it was a clear road, but his situation was in a situation that seemed to be bright and not bright, and seemed to be dark and not dark, and he was invisibly tied to the warship of the eighth prince.
Although he has the deterrence of his own division and his family, his family's safety is temporarily safe, but he is in an embarrassing situation, this identity of not being an official or a citizen, not a businessman or a businessman can only be at the mercy of the Eighth Prince, and in the face of the general trend of chaos, it is like a leaf that is drifting away, and there is no safety at all.
But if he simply makes this identity public, with royal righteousness in hand, although he has more confirmed the name of "selling his mother for glory and betraying the country", it is obviously much better than the current situation, and even if he does not take this step, his reputation will never be better.
"I understand, thanks to the plan of Qiu Dazai and Guogong, Xiao is ashamed of the kindness of the two, as long as I keep my family safe, and conform to the will of God, Xiao will be worthy of his heart, and he will be worthy of the world, even if he bears the name of disloyalty, filial piety, benevolence and injustice, why ......be afraid of it. ”
Since his mother and Aunt Ying were taken away by the Eighth Prince, Xiao Tong has borne too much of this kind of "infamy", but it is the first time he has confessed his thoughts in front of others, and even he himself is unconsciously a little impassioned.
However, this also made Xu Guogong look at him with admiration, after all, for ordinary people, this kind of infamy is not many people who have the courage to bear it except for those who are really sinister in their hearts, especially those who cultivate truth, and pay more attention to the cultivation of their own hearts, if they don't have a big mind, they can't stand the infamy that this thousand people refer to.
"Maybe you're right, but...... But if the old man puts himself in his shoes, he will never dare to act like this....... ”
Xu Guogong looked at Xiao Tong with a strange face, and he was a little disappreciative of what Xiao Tong said in his heart, he was a strong person, if he got along in a different position, even if he died at home, he would never betray his family, not to mention the former royal family, although it was defeated, but it was also an extremely noble family, and the majesty of the emperor was not allowed to be blasphemed at all.
The old man has an upright temperament, although he has a deep relationship with Xiao Tong, but on top of this kind of right and wrong, he doesn't want to go against his will, but then he put the matter aside, shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Fortunately, you are not as stupid as the old man, otherwise it would be your life and death now, with your demonic strength, I am afraid that the old man will not live now......." ”
Seeing Xu Guogong's strange face, and his words were so upright, Xiao Tong naturally could see the disapproval in the other party's heart, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, this Xu Guogong was really upright and a little pedantic, obviously persuading the court to surrender, but the words were so ugly, he had to scold himself for being "disloyal and unfilial" with others.
"In fact, Xiao does things like this, there is only one very simple reason, that is to protect his family, although I am not born to my father, but people often say, 'raising is greater than life', even if my biological father, I don't want to wantonly hurt them, otherwise I will fight for Xiao's life, and I will fight with him to ......the death. ”
Xiao Tong's original intention was just to explain to Xu Guogong, after all, the other party has a lot of relationship with him, and he also has a little kindness, but in the end, he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, the more he said, the more cold his expression became, and suddenly a powerful momentum burst out, almost wanting to condense, even Xu Guogong couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
"Offended! Lord Guogong, please forgive me for offending, but Xiao's temperament is like this, the so-called fame and fortune, glory and wealth, Xiao has never asked for anything, only with the general common people, just ask for a family and peace, but if someone doesn't even want to give me this, in your opinion, Xiao should not lead the neck to be slaughtered ....... ”
Today is not only the first time that Xiao Tong has confessed his thoughts since coming to this other world, but also the first time he is justifying what he has done.
On weekdays, Xiao Tong felt that as long as he was worthy of admiration, he could look down on the slander and criticism of others against him, but today he was inadvertently mentioned by Xu Guogong, but he suddenly became angry, knowing that Xu Guogong was also a straightforward person, although he just said a few words in his heart, he would not necessarily look down on himself in his heart.
But invisibly, the other party unfortunately represents most of the people in the world who claim justice, and Xiao Tong also found out at the same time that he was unconsciously affected by the fingers of Qianfu, and his mood was a little violated.
However, since the other party inadvertently acted as the representative of this person, Xiao Tong no longer had the intention of hiding his bitterness and anger, although the other party was a prince, but Xiao Tong did not have a trace of jealousy, his mouth was like a gun, and the anger in his stomach poured out.
"As for the so-called etiquette and morality in this world, it is not to lead people to good, even if I was born in the relics of the court, I also know the reason, and I never dare to go beyond the good and do evil, but why is the world because I am not fighting for fame and fortune, and enjoying peace for the sake of the world, but on the other hand, I am despising me to abandon evil and follow good, is this what the world says about human nature?"
"What the Duke of Guo said just now is very good, if you put yourself in your shoes, how should you deal with yourself? Should you be foolish and loyal to the widow and bring disaster to the place, so that your life will be ruined? Or should you be cut off and let the prince Xiao hurt my parents and harm my life?"
"The way of heaven is simple, that is, let my biological parents give birth to me in the world, even if Xiao is stupid, it can be regarded as a part of conforming to humanity, and he has the right to live in the world, his mother and father conceived in October, the grace of childbirth, Xiao can not forget, even if he is not alive, Xiao also has admiration in his heart, this is nature, and it is also a human ....... ”
"But Xiao is stupid, thinking that the relationship between father and son, mother and son, all lie in a sincere heart, and should not be mixed with any meritorious retribution, let alone be bound to the name of the reason, the so-called family righteousness, the so-called honor of the bloodline, are all painstakingly woven by ambitious people, just to fool others and fulfill their own ambitions, why should Xiao want to use his own blood, to harm others and himself, to be the sword and gun of the ill-intentioned person, don't say that Xiao Junru, even if his father is alive, he doesn't want to play Xiao in the palm of his hand!"
The look on Xu Guogong's face on the side can be said to be ever-changing and extremely complicated.
The dignified public candidate for the founding of a country, who has been in a high position for a long time on weekdays, is accustomed to being welcomed by his subordinates, and is accustomed to listening to sycophants, at first glance, Xiao Tong is young, and he dares to rob himself so much because of his own words, which makes the prince quite angry in his heart, if ordinary people dare to do this, he is only afraid of death more than ten times.
But Xiao Tong's identity is different, although the other party does not count the gift of Zen Yuemen, but after all, he is his own young master, and in terms of the gift of the outpatient faction, it can be regarded as his own small peak, and aside from this layer, even if it is the strength of the other party, it is quite jealous of him, so he suppressed the anger in his chest for the first time.
And for Xiao Tong, this robbery is not only an explanation of the old country's remarks, although he had this idea at the beginning, but the more he said it, the more excited he became, and the depression that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time suddenly came out with a turn of angry words, fortunately, in this small space, it was basically cut off from the outside world, and his passionate remarks for half a day were not spread out to affect the rest of others.
"Phew!"
The second is a human being, and today is the first time to vomit the depression in his chest, this feeling makes Xiao Tong seem to take out a mess that has been stuffed in his heart for a long time, and he suddenly feels lighter, only to feel that his thoughts are much clearer.
"Hahaha, the old man is not angry, in Xiao's heart, the old man is like his own parents, so he is so rude, just a catharsis, the old man is just his own junior who complained in front of your old man, and I hope that the old man Mo and Xiao are generally knowledgeable!"
Seeing that Xiao Tong had finished venting his heart, but suddenly laughed as if he was nothing, and reversed himself to soften, the only trace of unhappiness left in Xu Guogong's heart suddenly disappeared.
"You stinky boy, the old man only said one sentence, look at your accusation, it seems that the old man has offended you, and now that your anger is over, where should the anger in the old man's heart go!"
Xiao Tong naturally saw that the old man did not have a trace of malice, but his words were all from the heart, and naturally there was no sense of guilt, and his second personality now gradually appeared to be unified, although he knew some ways to advance and retreat, but he was still inevitably a little upright, which was also somewhat similar to the temperament of the old prince.
"It's no wonder that Xiao, the old man's opinion is wrong, fortunately, the old man has to vote for the master, conform to the way of heaven, if the two of us really change places, I am afraid that in this peaceful and prosperous world, there will be one more harm to the country and the people, and he still thinks that he is loyal and righteous, and he will not harm the people in the world. ”
"You...... You....... ”
Seeing that Xiao Tong was still smiling, but the words that Yun Danfeng said lightly were heartbreaking, and he couldn't help but raise his head again because of the anger that had just dissipated in the old country, this sentence was a bit heavy, but seeing that the old man was speechless, Xiao Tong seemed to not know, and added another fire.
"Don't disagree with the old man, your old man has been in a high position for a long time, and it is inevitable that he will be infected with the world's likes and dislikes, and he will deviate more and more from his true heart, the old man may as well not think that he is an old man, and he should not think that he is a very human minister, just think that he is the same as Xiao, just a young man who has nothing to do with the world, will you still be so angry?"
The more Xiao Tong spoke, the more slippery it became, this reversal of the other party's mind, Mo said that Xu Guogong was stunned, even Xiao Tong himself, and suddenly realized that these theories were the content of the Guigu miscellaneous theories, and all the time before, Xiao Tong only knew half of it, but with the pain of his words, it suddenly became clear, as if it was a matter of course.
It is no wonder that the ancients were always good at "discussing the Tao", and there is a sentence in the books of the Guigu Valley, "there is learning between movement and stillness" and "seeing the subtle bosom friend", and it is only now that Xiao Tong has a sense of identity with it, what is humanity? In fact, between the trivial things in the world, it is not vulgar and cannot understand humanity.
It turns out that between this communication with others, not only can you listen to it at the same time, but you can also warn yourself in turn, and understand many truths that you have been quiet for a long time but cannot obtain, and at this moment, Xiao Tong's heart is moved, and his understanding of this humanity has unconsciously deepened.
But the anger on the face of the old Guogong suddenly disappeared, and then the reason for the thoughtfulness was not Xiao Tong's incisive insights, to be honest, Xiao Tong said this call "messily", with the rude nature of the old general, he actually didn't understand much, but there was a sentence, but there was a sentence that reminded him of some things that his old friend Qiu Dazai used to persuade himself of.
Cultivating the truth is actually the meaning of practicing the truth, Qiu Dazai often persuaded Xu Guogong to restrain this old and fierce fire, "always do things with a childlike heart, and people should live with a child" These two sentences were given to him by Qiu Dazai, but the other party's words were elegant and the language was obscure, and the old Guogong was naturally puzzled, so he didn't take it seriously.
However, Xiao Tong's unintentional words against the scales interpreted the meaning of these two sentences from the other side, and they were much more straightforward than Qiu Dazai's words, which immediately touched him and fell into contemplation.
