Volume 1 In Search of a Thousand Years Chapter 67 Friendship with Classmates

Zhao Bixia passed through that time, and the Jixia School Palace behind it was basically a lecture of other schools, it seems that the first day of arrival was to catch up with the rare Meng Lao lectures, Zhao Bixia soaked in the Confucian Pavilion as always, insisted on going to the lecture room every day to participate in the lectures twice in the morning and evening, and when it came to the day of rest, Zhao Bixia found someone to arrange to live in the Jixia School Palace.

And the state of Chu at this time......

In the lecture hall of the Lantai School Palace.

Because it was a day of rest, all the students did not come to the school palace, and there were only Xiong Huai, Chen Xiang, Jing Li, and Zhao Sui in the lecture hall who were quiet Wen Shu, and Xiong Huai also brought the problems brought by the king the day before.

Xiong Huai was originally writing with his head down, but suddenly raised his head and said: "Suddenly Lingjun, Brother Chen, several virtuous brothers, I was in the palace yesterday, and my father raised some current problems in governing the country, and I want to find you staff officers."

Before a few people could answer, Xiong Huai had already thrown out a question.

Xiong Huai didn't wait for a few people to answer, and continued: "My father asked me, I currently want to take back the power resources in the hands of many nobles and return them to the royal family, but I don't know how to start."

Qu Yuan said that this was a cliché, and he had talked about it with Shang Ying and Zhao Bixia before. It's just that this question is really tricky.

Chen Xiang took the lead in saying: "At the beginning of the king's succession, with the death of Wu Qi, he killed many inactive feudal monarchs, and it has been regarded as the destruction of some aristocratic forces, greatly suppressing the old clan's monopoly of resources, and the vicious arrogance of corruption and corruption, but after so many years of the king's reign, these forces have a tendency to restore, unless the law is changed again."

Qu Yuan agrees with this statement, but he can't think of any good way at present.

Qu Yuan agreed, accompanied by worry, his expression was overflowing, and he squinted his eyes and said slowly: "Yes, it's just that now the old clan is forming a faction, and the forces are intertwined, like a hundred-legged insect that dies but does not stiffen, if there is no strong support for the change of law and a strong change of law and they fight against each other, it is difficult to change the law to go on, and it is very likely to die halfway." And the king has been reigning for so many years, and he still doesn't dare to carry out the changes."

Xiong Huai was also worried, and said impatiently: "Alas, yes, this is exactly what my father and I are concerned about, there are too few supporters of the change of law, and the strength is weak, so we can't act rashly."

Jing Li heard that the worries of several people were also included in the discussion, so he said: "Then we want to make the Chu State stand out among these countries, so that it will be even more difficult to dominate the world."

Several young aristocratic children are analyzing what to do in the future. Naturally, the school at this time still didn't have those anti-change factions.

Qu Yuan's tone softened slightly, and comforted the prince: "His Royal Highness the Prince, these are difficult historical problems, which cannot be solved in a day, we can only slowly accumulate the strength of the law change faction, and wait until it is enough to resist the aristocratic forces before we can start to change the law, and the law change is by no means overnight, now there are not so many Wu Qi, and there are not so many Chu mourning kings, we can only accumulate strength, in order to insist on changing the law for many rounds, and during this period, we have to bear the tilt of the anti-law faction, so that we can hope to take back the power to the royal family little by little, and consolidate the imperial power, lest the power fall, and when it really comes to the moment of danger, the imperial power will be decomposed into the hands of the feudal monarchs in various places, and if no one can be gathered, the entire Chu State will be like a plate of scattered sand."

Xiong Huai: "I understand all this, my father asked me more than this, he also asked me, according to the current power of Qin, should we be absolute Qin or pro-Qin"

Chen Xiang's words were serious: "Neither pro-Qin nor extinct Qin, because of the current Qin's power, the rapid growth of military strength has gradually become a threat to all countries, we can't tear our faces with it, but we can't even get close, and we can't break off our closeness."

Qu Yuan agreed, and I don't know if there will be anyone to face him on the road of his career in the future, and he can give him great support, how good it would be if Chen Xiangneng could always be by our side.

In fact, these are just personal thoughts, and it is not yet known what other people's attitudes are.

Tang Wu explained everyone: "Okay, let's not worry about the sky, if the situation is planned by us in the future, I'm afraid the world has already been unified."

Everyone was amused by this sentence, and they didn't think about it anymore, but Xiong Huai and Qu Yuan were still thinking about the question just now, at this time, the two glanced at each other, and saw that each other was still thinking about the same problem, and waited until everyone left. Only Xiong Huai and Qu Yuan were left in the lecture hall.

The lecture hall was unusually quiet.

Silently, the time of the drip could be heard, the time passed minute by minute, and after a while, Qu Yuan finished recording the things Chen Ping explained, packed up the bamboo slips and prepared to go to the library.

When he was about to leave, he noticed that Xiong Huai was still there, and wanted to walk in to see what Xiong Huai was writing, but he felt impolite after taking two steps, and then stopped a little farther away from Xiong Huai's table.

Driven by curiosity, Qu Yuan still asked: "His Royal Highness the Prince"

The prince raised his head when he heard the sound, looked at Qu Yuan at the door, and said calmly, "Lingjun, what's wrong?"

Qu Yuan took a few steps forward, approached Xiong Huai, looked at Jian Mu in front of the prince, and said leisurely: "Oh, His Royal Highness the Prince, is there anything else busy at this time, I see that it will be lunch time later, is there anything you need me to do for you, so that you can finish the work in hand as soon as possible."

Xiong Huai: "No, it's just a personal hobby, I'm reading the Book of Songs, and there are some rhetorical rhetoric"

Qu Yuan raised his eyebrows with interest and said, "Oh? His Highness loves these too."

Xiong Huai looked at Qu Yuan and said with a smile: "It's not, it's rare that Xiu Mu has time to do something he likes today, eh!" By the way, Lingjun, your poems seem to be pretty good, and my father praised you for writing an ode to oranges."

Qu Yuan was full of interest, which happened to talk about Qu Yuan's hobby, and then talked about the works he and Zhao Bixia made such as "Mountain Ghost", "Qingshan Xing", "Shao Si Ming" and "Da Si Ming".

Xiong Huai listened to the poems sung by Qu Yuan, while silently writing the content, and reading it carefully, it was really good, Xiong Huai couldn't help but appreciate.

Xiong Huai's face was full of surprise, and he was greatly amazed at Qu Yuan's talent for words, why hadn't he noticed it before?

"By the way, Lingjun, these two poems "Shao Si Ming" and "Da Si Ming" are written about folk sacrifice activities, so what is this "Mountain Ghost" written about, or is it written for someone" Xiong Huai said with a slight joke.

Qu Yuan was embarrassed and did not hide the joy in his heart, and said: "Your Highness probably guessed seventy-seven-eighty-eight, the so-called fair lady and gentleman are good" Someone's face inevitably appeared in his mind.

This is into Lantai busy writing books, and finally leisure, once idle, then the thoughts invade like a tide. finally understood why Bixia didn't come to Yingdu with her, but said Bixia, I don't know how she has been recently.

Xiong Huai smiled when he heard this, and said: "Sure enough, the one who can write poetry is romantic, I want to write poems for the woman I like and I can't write it, so Lingjun smiled, just now I was distressed, how to write poems and give them to the woman I like"
