Chapter 24 What is the solution to this question?
For the Great Qian Dynasty, the Jade Spring Festival was a rather important festival, especially for the southern provinces.
Due to the geographical location of the Great Qian Dynasty, spring only began in March, and April was the season when sowing and farming began and everything germinated.
Yuchun is also known as Yuchun, perhaps the name of this festival was called Yuchun at the beginning, and later the literati changed the word Yuzi to jade in order to be elegant.
The importance of the Jade Spring Festival is self-evident, and although this world has all kinds of magical powers, the Great Qian Dynasty was still in an agrarian society, so the festivals related to agriculture are not uncritical.
On this day, even the emperor himself would go to the farmland, plow the land a few times, and sow seeds to indicate a good harvest this year.
Officials everywhere will follow suit to show the importance they place on agriculture.
And since the emperor of the dynasty ignored the government for more than ten years, not to mention the form of land reclamation, under the effect of the upper and lower levels, officials from all over the country have not followed suit.
However, for the people, this festival is still important, and it can be regarded as the second most important festival after the New Year's Festival, representing the people's expectations for this year's harvest and their yearning for a better life.
On the day of the Jade Spring Festival, people will go to the temple of the city god or the god of the river and water to perform a sacrifice ceremony to pray for the safety and happiness of the family.
In addition, a lantern festival is held at night to celebrate the arrival of the festival by making the lanterns into various flower shapes.
Zhong Yunyi returned to his hometown of Huashui County on the day of the Jade Spring Festival.
When he was admitted to the Jinshi, he left the county seat surrounded by everyone on a five-flowered horse, but now he is alone and returns to his hometown.
Zhong Yunyi had to sigh at the changes of the seasons and the snobbery of people's hearts.
It coincides with the Jade Spring Festival, the county is very lively, and the people who are struggling to survive seem to be able to breathe a sigh of relief on this day, with a rare smile on their faces, making Huashui County more lively.
The excitement of others is in stark contrast to the joy and the bitterness in Zhong Yunyi's heart, he is very anxious!
At this moment, standing in front of the statue of Rusheng and closing his eyes and thinking hard, Zhong Yunyi felt more and more bored in his chest for a long time, and he had nowhere to vent.
As the emperor of the imperial history, he has the duty of admonishing the emperor to picket hundreds of officials, but he finds that all his efforts are like the moon in the water.
The emperor has been ignoring the government for more than ten years; Hundreds of officials in the DPRK and China, corruption and perversion of the law are rampant; The people are not happy, the etiquette and music are broken, and the government is sluggish.
is young and ambitious, and the title of the gold list still can't hide the frustration in his heart.
The death in front of the noon gate of the imperial city was the last thing he could do, but it was still useless.
The emperor asked him to enter the palace in the middle of the night, and what he asked was not about national affairs, but about cultivation and ghosts.
As the only second-realm Confucian in the current dynasty, Zhong Yunyi's heart was full of bitterness.
"Self-cultivation Qi family rules the country and the world, saint, what have I cultivated?"
Looking at the statue of the saint in front of him, Zhong Yunyi raised his own questions, and finally had to sigh, remembering a poem from his predecessors.
"Pity the front seat in the middle of the night, don't ask the common people to ask the ghosts and gods."
Frustrated, Zhong Yunyi was about to leave, but a handsome young man in a Taoist robe stood at the door.
"Sir, but you're from the capital?"
The other party's temperament is dusty, and although the robe is a little shabby, it is difficult to hide his demeanor.
Zhong Yunyi nodded, but he was not very willing to deal with Lin Shou, because the Taoist robe that Lin Shou was wearing reminded him of the emperor who had been obsessed with cultivation for more than ten years.
Lin Shou was sure that the person in front of him was the big official who was demoted from the capital as Boss Liang said.
That bearing, as well as the majestic aura on the body, is not something that this small county town can have.
Thinking of what Boss Liang said, Lin Shou naturally knew that the reason why the other party was unwilling to deal with him was nothing more than the Taoist robe on his body.
So he smiled and took the initiative to speak again: "Mr. seems to be a scholar, Poor Dao has some doubts, and wants to ask, if someone does something bad and gets angry with his family, should he be?" ”
Zhong Yunyi frowned and said, "Naturally, it shouldn't be."
Lin Shou laughed and took a few steps forward, and when he came to Zhong Yunyi, he asked again: "The emperor is obsessed with cultivation, but he is bewitched by the Daomen?" ”
"No, but Your Majesty himself wants to live ......forever with the body of the Ninety-Five Supreme," Zhong Yunyi muttered to himself, and then suddenly realized, and bowed to Lin Shou, "It's me who is rude, I don't know the name?" ”
"Poor Dao Lin Shou, he can be regarded as a native of Huashui County." Lin Shou said with a smile.
Zhong Yunyi arched his hand again and said: "It turned out to be Lin Daochang, and under Zhong Yunyi, a white body, is also from Huashui County. ”
"I'm a little curious, what is your opinion on the question that Chief Lin asked just now?"
Lin Shou smiled, but did not reply, he is different from Zhong Yunyi, he not only likes to be angry, but also likes to dig human graves together.
Lin Shou looked at the pedestrians coming and going, nodded and said, "This is not the place to talk, Mr. Zhong is willing to move with me, there is a tea shop where the tea is not bad, and the boss is also familiar with me." ”
Although it was the first time they met, Zhong Yunyi was impressed by Lin Shou's indescribable bearing, nodded and said, "Why not, please." ”
Contrary to the crowd, Lin Shou and Zhong Yunyi came to Lao Liang's tea shop, and Lao Liang greeted him warmly: "Why did Lin Daochang turn back again, is there too many people in the City God Temple to squeeze in?" Who is this next to you? ”
Seeing the strange man in the Confucian robe beside Lin Shou, Boss Liang asked with some doubts.
Lin Shou chuckled, and then said, "Lao Liang, do you remember the rumors you said a few days ago?" ”
Lao Liang thought about it carefully, looked at Zhong Yunyi in a Confucian robe, showed a look of surprise on his face, and hurriedly bowed and said, "You are the Lord Zhong who asked for his life for the people!" Disrespectful, disrespectful! We are all thunderous about your deeds, and everyone is upset for you. ”
Zhong Yunyi smiled bitterly when he heard this: "It's impossible to ask for life for the people, but I didn't expect to get some false fame, and I'm not an official anymore, so you don't need to call me an adult, you can call me an old bell." ”
Lao Liang shook his head and said: "It's a pity that an official like you has been dismissed, if there are more officials like Mr. Zhong, this world will not be like this...... I didn't expect Lin Daochang to get acquainted with you, so that the consumption of the tea shop where you are today will be free of charge! ”
Lin Shou smiled and teased: "Lao Liang, you haven't given me a free order, is this a bit favoritism?" ”
"The cost of the osmanthus cake I give you on weekdays is enough to go to the flower building once, arrange me in front of Mr. Zhong like this, be careful that there will be no free osmanthus cake in the future." Lao Liang said with a smile.
The guy brought tea and pastries, and Lin Shou and Zhong Yunyi sat down.
Not far from Lin Shou, three or four tables apart, a young man with a book in his hand, who should have just been crowned, was meditating on the book in his hand, and read in his mouth: "There is a way to make money, there are many people who live, there are few people who eat, those who are sick for it, and if you use it, you will have enough money." Why? ”
Lin Shou turned his head to look at Zhong Yunyi and asked with a smile, "What is the explanation of this question?" ”
