Chapter 137: This Chapter Is Poisonous
Because of Shen Sanwen's invitation, the contest between the princess and Wudan was temporarily suspended, and the pillars of the two states returned to Beijing.
Because Di Renjie and not someone else suddenly returned to Beijing, many people only have expectations for this peace talks, and they are not worried that it will be a rebellion.
When Di Renjie arrived, Shen Sanwen personally went out to greet him, looking at Di Renjie's form, he had a lot of feelings in his heart. When I first saw him, Di Renjie was still in good spirits, but now years of hard work have made him very haggard, and the white hair on his head is meticulously groomed, but the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and the drooping eyelids are engraved with traces of time.
Shen Sanwen will never be able to be a person like Di Renjie. Giving his life for the people of the world, if he can't eat or sleep well, he will definitely not be able to do it.
into the living room.
Di Renjie was a guest invited by Shen Sanwen, so naturally he had to speak first, and Shen Sanwen was ready to be reprimanded first, but this situation did not come.
Di Renjie just said that he hoped that the world would be healthy, and he also put forward his own selfishness, hoping that his children could become law-abiding people who were beneficial to the country.
His sons are all successful, and although they are not as capable as he is beyond the ordinary, they are able to keep to themselves.
It is also beneficial to the country, which Shen Sanwen is happy to see. It's just that Shen Sanwen is beneficial to the country, which is far from Di Renjie's idea.
What is really beneficial? Do you contribute your talents to socio-economic and cultural development and do your part well in accordance with current ethical standards?
Parents have their parents' thoughts, and children have children's thoughts, and although the older generation has more experience, it may not necessarily bring happy results. Many people think that their children are rebellious, but they forget that when they were young, they also had a time when they were obstinate and stubborn.
It is not terrible to have your own ideas, and it is not terrible to encounter problems, but it is terrible to never try, never experience, but imagine many difficulties, dare not touch, and even prevent future generations from trying.
The pace of progress is easily ruined by experience, the energy of life is limited, and there is nothing wrong with choosing to climb the shoulders of giants, but what you miss as a result may be the scenery of Mount Everest.
Of course, the possibility that the giant is already standing on Mount Everest is not ruled out.
Everyone has their own scenery in their eyes, some people like famous mountains and rivers, some people like market food, some people are only willing to study advanced theories, and some people only like bubble soap operas to read spicy chicken online articles.
Everyone is a member of society, and different worldviews make up a rich and colorful society.
Therefore, not everyone is as free and easy as Shen Sanwen, and it is impossible for everyone to be as heavy as Di Renjie.
Since you are born as a human being, you have the right to choose your life, not for your parents, the country, nor for the passers-by, not for a so-called society, but for yourself.
For your own preferences and beliefs, live your own value and live freely. For example, although Shen Sanwen in his previous life was just a writer who fought on the street, he would never give up his creation because no one read it, nor would he give up his original intention to start a new book hastily because there were few subscribers. Because what I need most in my life is my own affirmation first.
Only by pleasing oneself can one live a wonderful life, and only by being worthy of oneself can one be worthy of family, society and country.
There is a saying that people are born free but they are always in bondage.
Therefore, freedom is relative, although you can choose each step, there are always fewer options, and you can only rely on yourself to find or create the most suitable option for yourself.
Especially in the minds of the older generation, the options are always solidified and secure. For example, after the children graduate, the first choice must be the establishment of state-owned enterprises, followed by famous enterprises, and then long-term positions. Di Renjie arranged his three sons in state-owned enterprises, which can generally be seen that many concepts have never changed throughout the ages.
Of course, Shen San asked if he didn't care about these things, the most important thing that was beneficial to society was that he was happy and well, he just wanted to ask Di Renjie if his sons were happy?
Is it true to yourself, rather than living in the eyes of your father and the eyes of others?
If a person can freely choose the career he loves, he will naturally be able to invest enough time and energy and do his best to do a good job, which can be regarded as giving back to the society. If you do something you don't like to do, your heart is full of unfree doubts and boredom, and negative emotions accumulate, how can you really benefit society?
For example, Di Renjie, what he loves is to make everyone in the world warm and well-fed, so he can work hard for decades.
For example, Lai Junchen, what he loves is power and status, and even abandoned the basic morality of being a human being for it, and stepped on the throne of power piled up with white bones.
Shen San asked if he should say this to Di Renjie, people with different ideas may not be able to communicate.
However, the theme of today's gathering is not to discuss the meaning of life, what freedom is, and how to be free.
Emperor Wu has changed, and there are still Zhang Changzong and others by his side, Shen Sanwen hopes that Di Renjie can stay in the capital.
Di Renjie was shocked and helpless when he heard it, everyone will get old, who doesn't want to listen to nice words. If the situation is not serious, he will not give up on the cause of Gyeongju.
Di Ren distinguished the princess's mansion and went straight to the palace. When the old man returned, Emperor Wu was happy, and the palace was naturally more lively. On the way to the palace, many people came forward to greet him, as well as Zhang Cambodia, who he was most familiar with.
Di Renjie naturally wanted to ask his friend a question or two, "I wonder if Your Majesty has been doing anything strange recently?" ”
The harmony on Zhang Khan's face is quite similar to Lou Shide, except that a pair of eagle eyes destroy the peace, and he looks more like a wild wolf disguised as a sheep. "Your Majesty favors the two brothers Zhang Changzong, but fortunately, they both support King Lu Ling as the emperor's heir."
Di Renjie was stunned at the moment, they were just two playthings, how could their support be counted, listening to Zhang Cambodia's tone, he was quite happy, the two of them should not be insignificant, this is not a good sign.
Zhang Cambodia didn't comment much, but specifically asked, "Is Master Di in good health?" ”
Di Renjie waved his hand, "It's old, it's useless." Then he said goodbye to Zhang Cambodia.
In the palace, he saw Zhang Changzong's brothers, with handsome faces and skin like Fu powder, they were really jade.
Emperor Wu is idle today, and he is in a happy mood to play against others.
Di Renjie said "Join Your Majesty" and woke Emperor Wu from the indulging chess game.
Emperor Wu immediately abandoned the chess game, "Di Aiqing is back." ”
Except for rejoicing or rejoicing.
Di Renjie was in a trance, since he knew Emperor Wu, she had never been so happy, her eyes were full of smiles, like an ordinary woman without warning.
At first, she was a little woman standing beside Gaozong, helpless and hesitant, in order to survive and have the right to speak, she was unwilling to be buried, and tried to do what ordinary people could not do, and she was like a fish in water in the complex harem. Later, she was the queen of the world, and Gaozong entrusted most of the political affairs to her, and she was worried every day, worried about the calculations of the courtiers, and worried about the livelihood of the people. A few years ago, she became the true master of the empire, sometimes rejoicing and sometimes worried, and truly able to control the lives of many people and realize her political ideals.
Now, it should be really different.
