35 A Dream
Wang Bin already knew what he wanted to know, and Shen San asked this attitude, indicating that it couldn't be too bad in the future.
Anyway, he had already persuaded Li He to stay a little longer?
I've done everything I need to do.
Clear conscience.
Li He left for Beijing three days later.
Speaking of which, seeing this side is more about reconciling Li and reconciling the knot, which actually has no big impact on the two of them.
However, there are really no regrets.
What to do in the future.
Shen Sanwen and Wang Bin played all kinds of entertainment every day as usual, and enjoyed the last time of this life today.
This year's laughter will be next year, and the autumn moon and spring breeze will be leisurely.
What a jolly.
However, Shen Sanwen often thinks about the problems behind him.
He would even ponder for a long time whether to enter the mausoleum that had been prepared for them.
In fact, cremation is very good, born between heaven and earth, and finally becomes a pile of dust, which also dissipates between heaven and earth.
I don't think that's what the princess thinks.
However, considering that the tombs of the princes and nobles will inevitably be dug up later, used as archaeological research, or in a long time, they will be used by future generations, mostly for the property in the cemetery, and in the end, they will not be laid to rest.
Shen Sanwen discussed this matter with the princess.
Actually, this wasn't a problem in the first place, but when I think about it, I feel free to talk about it.
As a person who accepts contemporary thoughts, the princess is naturally a little different from Shen Sanwen, she thinks that it is better to be in the ground.
Even if there is an afterlife, the dust of this life returns to the dust, and it should also go to the end as it should be.
That is, I went to the cemetery of the royal family.
Shen Sanwen sometimes thinks that immortality is a particularly good thing.
When he came to Datang, he had no relatives, only friends.
Later, there was the princess's mother as a relative.
At that time, he felt that it was not a bad thing if people could live forever, and of course they had to maintain their due rationality.
At least, if Emperor Wu were alive, many things would be much easier later. They will not be like duckweed independent of heaven and earth, they have to think twice and think carefully about everything.
It's probably a sense of dependence on elders.
Accustomed to having someone in charge of the final process, they are reluctant to take on more responsibility.
Desire to be autonomous, have their own views on many things, but it is difficult to refuse the benefits of being arranged.
A philosopher once said that although human beings do not have immortality, they pass on their ideas to the next generation, so that they can carry their own independence and their own traces, and reproduce from generation to generation, and finally form the continuation and transmission of culture and achieve a higher level of immortality.
Shen Sanwen disagrees with this statement.
A person's mind is always independent, even if it can influence others, the inheritance of the mutilation, in the end is not a complete self.
It's just a consolation.
Comforting yourself with something you can't do is true if you look at it from another perspective.
Shen San asked if he didn't want to lie to himself.
He had also thought before that only those who lived well pursued endless immortality, and the almost, simpler, only hoped to live a better life.
Recently, he saw another statement.
As long as there are beautiful things in life and the heart is full of nostalgia, there will be more nostalgia for the world, so that you can't bear to leave.
If everything is desolate and there is no nostalgia, no matter how young you are, no matter how afraid of death is, you will not have the courage to live.
Shen Sanwen naturally didn't experience this, and there were many things he didn't understand.
The beauty of his nostalgia is more about hoping that what he cares about will last a long time.
Most of the time, the idea of one's own immortality comes from the desire to make changes around him for a longer period of time.
Human perceptions are always changeable and complex.
Now, though, there's little point in talking about that.
for he is going to go away.
To his strange surprise, the princess felt something about it.
"Are you scared?" Shen San asked.
I haven't asked any questions for a long time, Shen Sanwen prides himself on knowing the princess very well, at least after coming to Suzhou, the relationship between the two comes from understanding rather than asking.
Language is a tool created by human beings to communicate and solve miscommunication.
In the end, it made the communication more colorful.
Because emotions and the thoughts behind them sometimes can't withstand too many inquiries, especially people who are calm and quiet don't necessarily like a certain kind of noise.
Although the question was necessary, the princess gave the answer.
With a light smile and inevitably, the language is firm.
"Death may be just a new beginning, and I don't have any unfulfilled wishes."
Shen Sanwen sometimes feels that he will never be able to understand a person, no matter how much he cares and how seriously he listens.
Probably, the only person who can understand is himself.
Being willing to communicate and being able to communicate is far less than understanding and understanding.
Maybe a person who doesn't have a career will think a lot in his spare time.
"Actually, I've always wondered why you valued me when I was young."
This is probably something that Shen Sanwen has always had an explanation in his heart, but he has never been able to explain, and he has not even been able to ask.
There may be some kind of inevitability, but he can't believe it.
The princess laughed but did not answer.
"In the future, I look forward to meeting you."
If there is an afterlife, I also look forward to it.
Even if there is nothing crippled in this life, we can still know each other in the next life.
However, once again, Shen Sanwen would not choose to do so.
He may no longer shrink into one place, admiring the blood of the battlefield and the competition of the court, but will create a better world and change all tragedies by himself.
Although idealistic, I have no regrets.
After March, autumn, the sun is shining.
The four seasons flow, each with its own scene.
But in autumn, there will always be a silence that he can't erase.
The leaves are yellow, and after decay, a new year is ushered in.
Maybe it's because he's old, Shen Sanwen and Wang Bin mentioned the things in the book, in the history book.
"I'll tell you some stories and tell me your answers."
Wang Bin readily agreed, listening to the story, he has always been very happy.
Shen San asked:
In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States of Qin, human life is not as good as grass mustard, the conquest is continuous, the thief is punished, the thief is marquis, if there is a strong technique, and even today's knowledge level, you can easily crush the natives in some aspects, at least with the help of what you see now, it is easy to be a rich man.
In the Han Dynasty, the king of the prime minister was torn apart, the internal affairs were calmed, the external was unprecedentedly strong, and the Silk Road was newly opened, which spread knowledge at the same time, and also introduced some special products of foreign peoples, thus improving people's lives.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms of Wenchen and Strategists were born one after another, and the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu were established, whether it was to be a virtuous minister or a good general, or if he wanted to compete for the world, it was a particularly suitable soil for hegemony.
If there is another country, let's call it the Song Dynasty, the monarch and the ministers are strict in etiquette and religion, the economy is developed, the status of the civil servants is transcendent, and the people are rich and prosperous, but the force is weak, and it is also promising to exchange coins for border tranquility.
You, will choose where to go.
Wang Bin was speechless when he heard it.
Is this still an option?
"I'm definitely going to Song."
Shen San asked again: "Why?" ”
Wang Bin replied, "If you go to be the emperor and a general, it must be the best soil in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and if you go to stability, the Song Dynasty must be the best."
Strict etiquette and religion, emphasizing culture and suppressing military force, there will be no civil strife between the central and local governments, and being a flat-headed ordinary person can at least ensure survival.
At that time, a certain status was required, otherwise it would not be easy.
Moreover, the prosperity of the people shows that the life of the people is good, at least there is not too much famine, and the politics are relatively clear.
Even if it is true that it is ungraceful to exchange money for stability, what is the use of a country's prestige if its citizens are not doing well.
I don't think there's anything wrong with the state just to enable the people to live and work in peace and contentment and be richer.
The food and manpower consumed by the war are far from what the people can bear, and how many people have been displaced by a war and the destruction of families is not an empty word.
This is true righteousness. Those in power are willing to exchange their own capital for pleasure for the peace of the people, and to divide the money they get.
There is also a good environment for development in China.
Of course, it should not be without its own strength.
If we really fight, it is necessary to protect our country and people.
Too weak a regime will not last long, and if the privates can get their money, then the privates' armies will be endless.
Even the enemy will think that if I take the kingdom directly and enslave their people, wouldn't it be a higher way of economic gain.
Makes sense, right? ”
Shen Sanwen nodded, it made sense.
Although force is a very important part, fighting wars and clearing land seems to bring high achievements, but behind it carries more selfishness and demand.
If he had nothing to worry about, he might have chosen the Song Dynasty, which had a sound system and a relatively complete legal system, and it was perfect to be a common man.
Wang Bin asked, "What about you?" Where will you choose. ”
"Me?" Shen Sanwen chuckled, this still needs to be asked, "I will definitely choose the Tang Dynasty." If I am reborn again, I hope I am a noble son like Xue Shao, what do I do with the emperor's backing, there is a big brother who is stupid but in order to consider a lot, and."
He didn't say the latter words, and Wang Bin knew it.
There is also a marriage that everyone is optimistic about, and a happy life.
Tang Dynasty?
Wang Bin looked at the clouds in the sky with longing, "I want every dynasty to take a look, I want to go to the Three Kingdoms to see Lu Bu and Zhuge Liang, I want to go to the Qin Dynasty to see Qin Shihuang and Xiang Yu, I want to go to the end of the Sui Dynasty to conquer Emperor Yang of Sui, and even with." ”
At this point, he paused.
Shen Sanwen naturally understood, and even competed with Li Shimin.
After Wang Bin finished speaking, he said, "Even fight the world with Gaozu and be brothers." ”
Shen Sanwen stared at him suspiciously.
"Something on my face?" Wang Bin was a little unconvinced, and stretched out his hand and floated on his face.
"Aren't you going to be a rich man?"
"That's right!" Wang Bin reacted.
"Then I'll change it, I'm going to see Bao Xi, snatch him from King Zhou You, and then kill Wu Yue, let Xi Shi stay by my side, and let Fan Li make money for me. Then go to the Three Kingdoms, open a big harem, and send Xiao Qiao, Da Qiao, Zhen Mi, Diao Chan, and Cai Yan to their own Tongquetai. ”
Are you still so young?
You win.
"I hope your dreams come true." Shen Sanwen sent out his sincere wishes.
"Thank you." Wang Bin thanked him, but subconsciously thought it was unrealistic.
After all, time is gone, and the descendants of the past can only look at and guess from afar.
"Have you ever sent someone? I mean actually sent into the coffin. Wang Bin asked.
"Well, I sent it, it wasn't a good experience, and I didn't want to witness the loss of my relatives and friends." Shen Sanwen said with a hint of sadness.
"That's not the point, I sometimes wonder if there is a difference between humans and animals in those heavens that the Buddhists say, after the body stiffens when it cools, and then is sent to a place, is there really a soul that is liberated, and then reincarnated and becomes a new being?" Wang Bin asked.
This kid has just read too many Buddhist texts, and it's not good to believe in anything.
Shen Sanwen can now tell him confidently and confidently, "No, it is already a great opportunity for people to live for a lifetime, where will there be a chance to come again." "Unless you're the real protagonist of a world.
"Oh." Wang Bin replied and continued to look up at the sky.
A life is actually quite long, and it is not easy to live well, just live well and live a wonderful life.
The wonderful thing that belongs to him is a wonderful salted fish, which is salted on both sides and exudes its own unique fragrance.
"What about you?" Wang Bin didn't know what he was asking again.
Ask him if he wishes, or dreams, or expectations.
Shen Sanwen closed his eyes and felt the scenery and changes of nature, "I just want to be as noble as white clouds, as free as the breeze, as quiet as a lake, as warm as the sun, and to be myself." ”
"You're asking too much." Wang Bin quickly pulled him back to reality.
"Then I'll make a salted fish that eats and waits to die, just like I've done in my life." Shen San asked and laughed.
This is a life that many people can't ask for, it's easy to wait for death, and he can be regarded as the best when he eats comfortably.
You don't have to compare with anyone, it's enough to live comfortably, Shen San asked not to think too much.
Wang Bin thought for a long time after leaving.
Shen San asked what he said, it didn't look like he was joking.
In the future, there may be a Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty has a rich people and a developed economy, but it uses money to buy peace.
How is the measure with the neighboring peoples determined, and how much money can buy peace? It's a question worth pondering.
Wang Bin has not forgotten his duty as a descendant of the Wang family.
The general advice of the last discussion with Shen Sanwen and the news this time were transmitted back to the ancestral hall of the Wang family.
He is reluctant to be the head of the family, but this can be used as a secret passed down from generation to generation by the head of the Wang family, and he can do a lot of things for the family.
After all, in the future, if you want to be controlled, the opportunity is very important.
For example, in a certain era, the investment in the training of military generals was reduced, and the focus was on becoming a civil official, and at the same time increasing the training of economic talents, so that they could make more money for the family.
At that time, the money competition function may be mixed with military merit.
When the letter was sent back, it was naturally taken seriously.
Wang Bin has never been a useless son, but the person most valued by the Wang family, even if he has been in Lingyin Temple for two years, there are many people who visit.
But most of them just didn't find a way.
