Chapter 42 The civil official can put pen to peace, and the military attache will level the world

"Although the civil martial arts first came from the military, they are very different from the military in the army. From the etymological point of view, the word "martial arts" was first seen in the Southern Dynasty Yan Yanzhi's "Crown Prince Shi Dian Hui Zuo", which said: "Adults grow things, and they receive saints after the sky; Shitun will be Heng, and Yunmeng will be positive; Closed martial arts, expounding the literary order; The gentleman pours the wind, and the ten thousand streams look up to the mirror. The martial arts in the text refer to the military.

"Martial arts is military technology, that is, ancient warfare technology. Therefore, weapons are called weapons, military affairs are called martial affairs, and armaments are also called military equipment. Therefore, Wu, the original meaning is to pick up arms and run, go to war, and kill. Therefore, martial arts is the art of killing. also for the art of war.

"During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, 'martial dances' were used to train soldiers and boost morale. Therefore, it is believed that martial arts can be practiced in the form of dance. In the Zhou Dynasty, the 'set' order, the 'order' and other schools also listed archery and dance as one of the educational contents. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the vassal states attached great importance to the use of fighting techniques on the battlefield. Qi Huan Gong held a 'corner test' in spring and autumn to select heroes in the world. During this period, the manufacture of swords and the way of the sword developed unprecedentedly. During the Qin and Han dynasties, wrestling, fencing, and the custom of feasting and dancing were prevalent. In the Hongmen banquet, there is a Zhuang dancing sword. Its form is closer to the routines of martial arts. The application of guns in the Han Dynasty reached its peak, and various marksmanship began to appear. It is rumored that Hua Tuo pioneered the 'Five Fowl Opera', which is the promiscuity of Chinese martial arts.

"Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, although it has advocated the use of civilian officials to control military generals, the military skills of civilian officials have never been weak. Han Qi is a famous minister of the Great Song Dynasty, Han Qi has been the prime minister for ten years, assisted the three dynasties, and contributed to the prosperity and development of the Northern Song Dynasty. Ouyang Xiu praised him for 'facing major events, deciding big discussions, being upright, quiet, and taking measures for the safety of Mount Tai, which can be described as the minister of the society'. Its text is 'heavy in words', and it is not carved for poetry, and it is natural and elegant. Work in calligraphy, especially good calligraphy. There are tens of thousands of books in the house, and there is a "Ten Thousand Books Hall" in Anyang, and there is a "Anyang Collection" handed down. is such a literati, but there is a "Gun and Stick Technique" handed down.

Although the printing technology of Mr. Bi Sheng is very popular in the world, this book has not been printed at all, only a few manuscripts exist, if there is not a very good chance, then it is really rare to have the honor to take a look. When you see Aunt Shen in a while, you must go over and ask sincerely when you have the opportunity. ”

Speaking of this, Li Bao glanced at the three children and asked, "Did I understand what I just said?" ”

The three of them said in unison: "I understand, I will definitely learn the martial arts in the army in the future." ”

Li Bao grinned and said mysteriously: "Did you see the two old women playing chess just now?" One of them is very famous, and she is the granddaughter of Shen Kuo, a scholar of the dynasty. She is good at playing chess, not to mention the art of a hundred arts, the most important thing is that when her grandfather Shen Kuo knew Yanzhou and served as the pacification envoy of the Northwest Army, he got a copy of Han Qi's "Gun and Stick Technique", which is now in her hands. She once brought it into the palace, Li Shunju, Li Xian, and Tong Guan all learned from it, and established military merits in the future, especially Tong Guan's achievements were the highest. That Li Shunju is my uncle, and I have her love, and I have also learned a little bit from her. What I just used is one of the simplest tricks.

Li Bao led a few people to talk as they walked, and returned to Binshe in a blink of an eye. As soon as I entered the gate, I suddenly heard an old woman say in a loud voice: "That bear child may not be able to run away with a few people, we should eat, who should wait for him?" ”

As soon as Li Bao heard Aunt Shen scolding the bear child, he knew that it was himself, because since he knew this aunt, he had never heard her scold others like this. So that before he arrived at the door, he shouted bitterly and with grievances: "My aunt just doesn't hurt me, and she doesn't wait for dinner!" I saw that game of chess just now, and I don't know when it will be played, so I took the child out to practice, and I didn't think that your old man would have come back long ago. ”

Aunt Shen was going to scold, but she was afraid that a few children would misunderstand, so she said: "Except for you, they are all rare and distinguished guests, everyone has worked hard all the way, naturally tired and hungry, where do I dare to slack off?" When I saw you coming, I withdrew and returned. The meal had already been ordered to be prepared, and you were supposed to eat it first, but you had to wait for you to come back. What can you do with your children out for just a while? ”

Li Bao said seriously: "I think that although these children have been learning martial arts from Yantang since they were children, they have not come out to practice after all, so they simply took them to kill a few people. As soon as the bloody human head fell to the ground, their courage immediately grew. ”

Aunt Shen was taken aback, knowing that Li Bao might not only be talking nonsense, but also really killing someone, and she really couldn't figure it out. Seeing that he was the youngest, he turned his head and asked, "Did you kill someone with him?" It's not impossible to kill, and bad guys have to kill more when they should be killed. ”

Abandon the disease and look at Li Bao, and wait to show it. But Li Bao was calm and noncommittal, and he knew that this old woman was Grandpa Li's aunt, so he didn't dare to slack off, and replied: "There is no murder." Just threw a couple of bad guys on his master's roof. ”

Aunt Shen saw Li Bao's smugness, gave him a white look, and said with a smile: "In the blink of an eye, where can you find bad guys?" You can't be a bad person when you see a Jurchen, don't let your child fail to train, but bring it to you. ”

Suddenly, he lowered his face and said: "There are thousands of strange people in the world, and the situations they face are different, some people are not bad people all their lives, maybe they do something wrong in a hurry, as long as they are not heinous and extremely evil, they can't be easily killed." I'd rather you be softer than indiscriminately kill innocents. If you don't think about the people in the world, what is the use of success? Everyone nodded yes.

King Yun smiled: "Those people may not be bad, Li Laosan has his own way, and he will be bad in a while." ”

Li Bao immediately said: "My aunt is very clear, of course she won't believe your words." It's a shame that you are not the son of the Great Song Dynasty, otherwise you will be a faint king. When our masters went out shopping, the two evil slaves in the Aru Bu Mansion wanted to kill them for money when they saw the silver, and they were about to kill the four old and young masters, so they had to punish him slightly, which was regarded as sparing him. ”

King Yun didn't care, and said with a grin: "I can be tempted by you swaying silver, after all, I am a bad person, and I deserve it." They have met a living ancestor, who can compare to Li Sanye as a bad person. ”

Aunt Shen said angrily: "The two of them have been fooling around since they were children, and now they are still like this at the age of fifty or sixty, and they are not afraid of children's jokes." ”

Li Bao and King Yun have often been casual in front of Aunt Shen since they were children, and after Jingkang, the world is changeable, and it is rare for them to see each other again. The current situation is very familiar and familiar, and there are more words than usual.

Li Bao said: "I have been through a hundred battles and have traveled south and north for decades, and there is one thing that I have never figured out, and I will inevitably ask my aunt today." ”

Aunt Shen saw that he was serious, and couldn't help but say, "You are so capable, what else do you want to ask me?" ”

Li Bao looked at King Yun's mouth and said, "It's whether King Yun has killed people with his own hands." ”

Aunt Shen smiled softly: "You still greet him, go and ask him, I don't know!" ”

Yun Wang Zhengse said: "Before Jingkang, although I was in charge of the Imperial City Division, I never killed anyone. But on the way out of the north from the predicament, it is inevitable that the killers will be killed against those Jin soldiers who are chasing and intercepting and desperately blocking them. ”

Aunt Shen hurriedly said: "Don't patronize and talk, everyone is hungry all the way, hurry up and sit down to eat." I'll sit here, King Yun will also sit first, and others will be able to sit down. As he spoke, he sat down at the main table of the main table. Not far from the main table, there is another table. There are many people today, and the two tables of dishes are set up, which is very lively.

King Yun glanced at the empty seat of honor and looked around again, still hesitating whether he should sit down. Seeing this, Aunt Shen smiled and asked, "What's the matter today, with the respect of your prince, you don't dare to sit?" ”

As soon as King Yun heard Aunt Shen ask again, he immediately understood that her old man must have something to say, and immediately answered, "I don't dare to sit today." ”

Among the people who came, King Yun was the son of Huizong of the Great Song Dynasty and the elder brother of the current emperor Zhao Gou, and he was extremely respected, although he didn't care, others didn't dare to trespass for no reason. Although Xin Zan had been a Jinshi in the Song Dynasty and a doctor in the Chaosan for a short time, he did not have a real job after all, and at this time he was in the Jin Guanzhi Governor's Mansion, which was both a guest and a long age, and he should have sat below the King of Yun.

Xin Zan saw that King Yun was slow to sit down, and it was inconvenient to sit for a while, so he had to stand. Aunt Shen beckoned, and while arranging Xin Zan, she said: "His eldest relatives are in the hall, and he doesn't dare to sit in that seat. Xin Zanxun sat down, but he didn't know why, and secretly wondered.

Aunt Shen shouted towards the back room: "Everyone has arrived, it's time to come out for dinner!" At this time, the curtain door of the inner room rang, and the old woman who was playing against Aunt Shen just now walked out, and King Yun hurriedly stepped forward to salute and shouted, "Aunt Xiao is good!" ”

The old woman smiled and said, "You are Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, right?" I'm your father's cousin, and I look a little similar, so I can guess that you haven't forgotten your master. King Yun hurriedly said: "How dare you do this." ”

Yan Tang over there was taken aback when he saw this, and hurriedly pulled Cheng Yin, Huaiying, Jiu'er, and Qi Ji to meet him.

King Yun was born out of the royal family, and once led the Imperial City Division, read countless people, was clever and transparent, and was the best at recognizing people by face. When I was watching chess in the academy just now, I suspected that she was my master's cousin. At this time, I heard Aunt Shen say that the eldest relatives were in the hall, which was even more certain. Although Yan Tang has been with the ancestor for a long time, he has no interest in chess, and he didn't pay attention to who the old woman's face resembles at all. There were a lot of disciples of Yunwang Shimen present, and from him down, the seniors were even younger, so hurry up and come to greet them.

The old woman was very happy to see that her cousin's disciples and grandchildren were numerous, and she was very happy, so she first asked Yan Tang, "You call me Senior Aunt, who are you, and who is Master?" Yan Tang replied, "My name is Fan Yantang, Master Song Jiang. This is Li Chengyin's junior brother, and his master is Guan Sheng's uncle. The disciples are not talented, and they also accepted the three apprentices of Huaiying, Jiu'er, and Qiji. ”

So, Aunt Shen arranged for the old woman to be the guest of honor at the main table, the deputy guest of King Yun, followed by Xin Zan, and then left Yantang to serve tea and pour water.

After the main table was arranged, he said to Li Bao: "The bear child and Cheng Yin led the children to that table. ”

Li Bao beckoned another table to take a seat, and muttered, "What's so great about shouting at children?" In such a big room, who doesn't have a few children to shout at? ”

After everyone sat down, Aunt Shen introduced everyone to know each other, and specially introduced the name and origin of the old woman.

It turned out that this old woman was the cousin of Fan Yantang's ancestor Ruan Fei, the king of Yun, Zhao Kai had just called Aunt Xiao, and the daughter of Zhang Xiao, the famous minister of the Great Song Dynasty, and Ruan Yan. See the humble book "The Legend of Heroes in the North"
