Chapter 20: Anecdotes of Mubai
"By the way, second brother, you still don't know about Mr. Mu, right?"
During the chat, He Lanqi said with great interest.
Ning He raised his eyebrows and looked, not knowing what happened to Mu Bai.
He Lanqi said with a smile: "Mr. Mu opened a school at the mouth of Lotus Lane in Yonghe Dongcheng, and gave free lectures for the people near Dongshi, regardless of the peddlers and pawns, men, women and children, he explained as he pleased. β
The people they stayed in Yonghe City had already returned to Ying'an County, and they had also brought back the biggest anecdotes and anecdotes in Yonghe City in recent days.
Mu Bai began to teach the Mengtong to read and teach, and the Meng read and started the school.
At noon, he tells ancient and modern stories for the peddlers' pawns, interspersed with various truths, and educates them in fun.
In the afternoon, there are women who buy vegetables, and they can also tell some anecdotes, and they can talk about knowledge and educate in fun.
In his spare time, he chatted with a group of old people, and he could also talk about agricultural and commercial affairs, the changes and truths of the seasonal solar terms, spring plowing and autumn harvest, and the various ways and pros and cons of the small rich family.
When eating and drinking rises, it will also be caused by interest, chanting poems, or quoting scriptures, and writing an article from the ground.
Although it is only a few days, there are already many people in the market, who take their children to wait early, just want to stand closer, cherish this hard-won free enlightenment, want to know more words, know more etiquette, and at least find a lighter and easier job in the future.
Adults don't rob the children, and when they are busy, they go over to listen to a story.
There are also some croppers, who have listened to Mu Bai's words, and their families have gone to repair farm tools and farming methods, or they have found a small business that suits them to increase their income for their families.
There are even more scholars who seek provocation, but they are amazed by the book from the ground, and they are copied on the ground, which is cited as a treasure.
There is even a calligraphy everyone, watching the dissipation of the calligraphy, shaking their heads and sighing, asking for ink treasures but not being able to, waiting for them all day and every day, just to imitate and learn words.
It has become a great scene in Yonghe City.
"It's a good idea, and it's something that Mr. can do, and it is estimated that there has been no less scolding in the past two days, and Yonghe Shizi is angry."
Ning He couldn't stop laughing when he heard this, but he couldn't help but regret that he couldn't see it with his own eyes.
He Lan was surprised: "Second brother is not afraid that Mr. Mu is the one who is scolded?" β
Mu Bai's move can be described as risking the world's disapproval, provoking the Shi clan to besiege and provoke, which is not possible, but inevitable.
But he couldn't see that Ning He was worried in the slightest, and he was quite surprised.
Ning He said: "If San Lang goes, Mr. will definitely not be able to scold him, Yin Nu goes, he can't scold, but those scholars who are elegant and self-sustaining can be squeezed to death by him openly and secretly, in his opinion, learning is convenient to use, if you only learn and can't use it, it is better to be practical, empty talk, quote scriptures, he is not inferior to whom, really only talk with him, in which by the way to scold people, he is an expert." β
Ning He himself was also admitted to Xiucai, and at the beginning of his acquaintance with Mu Bai, he also discussed with him and asked for knowledge, and finally found that in Mu Bai, there is no way to say that it is reasonable and crooked, only unreasonable.
Many famous scholars and Confucians in the north have suffered the loss of Mubai.
Speaking of Ning He, he also told Mu Bai's previous anecdotes to He Lanqi:
"Just the year before last, there was a famous man in the north, his father was still a great Confucian in the house, there were many protΓ©gΓ©s, he was good at poetry, calligraphy and painting, and his knowledge was also very outstanding. It was also not too long after the first battle of Wolf Mountain, and he returned to his hometown to save his relatives, so he and a few friends, went to the border, wrote poems to remember, Mr. bought a sword and spear and looked for it, and said, "The paper is shallow, and I never know this and bow down", and then throw down the thing and turn around. β
He Lanqi became interested, "What about later, the man hid his face and left?" β
"Not really, that person is also quite strong, he slipped out of the border, and together with a few friends, raided a fort in Beilu, and met the general of Beilu to patrol, and was almost left there." Ning He shook his head and reminisced: "After he came back, Mr. greeted Baili and set up wine for him, but the man refused to drink, and Mr. Reverse apologized, saying, 'I have the pain of body and mind, and I know the evil of moaning without illness.'" Later, he went to Xinguo Zijian to ask for resignation and stayed in Yanbei Pass to serve in the army. β
He Lanqi clapped his hands and stood up, "Mr. is a strange person, and he is also a wonderful person. That celebrity is also a real hero, worthy of the title of celebrity! β
The people he respects most in his life are these real men who dare to shed blood for their family and country.
Abandon the pen and follow Rong, give up a talent to learn, study hard for half a life, pin your head to the waistband of your pants, and take your life to fight for your own will.
In the eyes of many people, this is unwise, absurd, and deviant.
But in his eyes, it is really admirable, no matter whether this move is fine or stupid, at least he dares to give up everything for his own body and spirit, for what he thinks in his heart.
Ning He said: "Then he was approached by Mr. again, and he was squirted, saying that he 'knows the civil and military affairs, and knows the hardships of the border, why don't you study what you have learned, do your best, advise the emperor Jing Pingce, and teach the people to abide by the family law, so as to save thousands of talents, but only do things of their own will, which is really stupid'." β
"This ......," He Lanji was dumbfounded, "let the gentleman say everything himself." β
"That man thought so at first, but he later left the borderland, but this time he left the country and went to Beilu to study alone, vowing to travel all over the mountains and rivers of Beilu, and write a chronicle of mountains and rivers, so that everyone in Daqin can know the appearance of the mountains and rivers of the Lu Dynasty and humanistic beliefs, and understand the people of the Law Dynasty from the root, and understand everything about my great enemy."
Ning He said, then sighed, sighing, "If it weren't for the first book of the mountains and rivers he wrote, you and I would not have known each other, and I could come back from Beilu alive, all thanks to his detailed record of the law realm within three hundred miles." β
When He Lanqi heard this, he had more respect in his heart, and he was even more respectful to the unknown celebrity, and also to Mu Bai.
sighed: "If this book is completed, the merit will be in the community, and it will be in the future." β
"yes. It's a pity it's too hard. Ning He agreed, but shook his head secretly.
Even after years of perseverance, Daqin's understanding of the Great Law is superficial, except for the border area, the knowledge of the deep area of the Great Law is pieced together little by little, some are scouts to return, some are from business travel, and some are obtained during the war...
It can be used, but there is no integrity, there are a lot of deviations, many times because of this deviation of the misdeeds, if there is a complete public opinion, the efficiency will be greatly improved when the war, and the number of mistakes will be reduced, and even if there is a detailed humanistic situation, it may not be able to do without a fight and surrender the soldiers.
It's just that although the distance between the north and south of the Great Law is not as good as that of Daqin, the width of the east and west is even greater, and it is not easy to find a little bit of exploration and record clearly, which is not other dangers, nor is it a function of a lifetime, it is too difficult.
"The spark starts, just waiting for the prairie to burn, and it will be completed one day."
He Lanqi is relatively optimistic, not that he doesn't know the difficulties and obstacles, but he believes that since someone has started this, someone will go forward and succeed, and there will be a day when it can be done.
Even in the meantime, he wanted to take someone to the Northland, take a trip to Dalu, in the name of business, to see if he could find this scholar and help a little.
"Pull it down." When Ning He learned his thoughts, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "That person is really both civil and military, after several life and death rubbing, asking his own heart, and respecting his own ways, he is already a grandmaster figure, and he is the lightest single person." β
"Uh......" He Lan was embarrassed for a moment, a little astringent.
β¦β¦
Inside Yonghe City.
At the mouth of Lotus Lane, there is an old tree in the north, the branches are coiled, the crown is grand, and it covers an open space of about three zhang square.
It was originally a place where the people in the alley took a cool refuge from the heat, and the porters paused to rest, and there was a lot of noise in the quiet.
In recent times, however, it has become more and more orderly, and the people who come and go either ignore it and hurry by, or consciously silence it, quietly merge into the crowd, and quietly look at the middle-aged scribe who lives under the tree.
Because he occupied the place, the Yongwang Mansion was on the other side of the alley, and a pavilion and corridor were built for the people to rest, but few people sit, but they all gathered under the tree, and they would rather bask in the sun than stay away.
"Childe, this Mu Bai is treacherous, and in this situation, I'm afraid it's not easy to kill."
Under the pavilion, there stood an old man and a young man in brocade, the former was holding a chess piece in his hand, as smooth as jade, although it was not easy to say in his mouth, his expression was not a little embarrassed.
"Elder Qi, did you say that the Yongwang Mansion now knows that we are here?" The young man in brocade said, although it was a question, his tone was quite firm.
Lao Suo also nodded his head, "I know, but they don't dare to take the initiative to attack us." β
The young man suddenly smiled, the male and female appearances were bright, "Even so, what can they do, it is never us who throw the mouse bogey, it is just a struggle for a little more time." Kill a Mubai, but my will is only, the goal of the saint and my father has always been Yonghe, Gu Li will send an envoy to enter the country in a few days, and the king of Yong will not have a chance, the ancestors and grandchildren will collude, and the trend of Yu Li will rise again, which is the first priority. β
After speaking, the young man glanced at the figure under the tree again, turned around and left, leaving only a sentence: "The former Yu bloodline, the demon rumor has caused the country to be angry, and the calamity of those who are close to it has fallen by itself, and they have started the game themselves, so let this Yonghe City be in chaos first." β
The old man surnamed Qi had a gleam in his eyes, and he also chuckled, and then turned around to follow.
Under the pavilion and corridor, all kinds of people in clothes and appearances also scattered one after another, and there seemed to be no intersection.
