Volume 1 The Rise of Dingxi Chapter 77 Ascending and Collapsing [3]
The crowd followed Di Wei Tai towards a path on the side of the tea hall.
The path leads to the back hall of this cafΓ©.
Liu Ruiying originally thought that this Di Weitai would not lose face when he invited guests.
Will definitely go to the private room upstairs.
But now everyone is in the back hall of the smoke, which is a bit too vulgar.
However, there are some ingredients, just pay attention to a fresh word.
Not only should it be fresh in the pot, but it should also be fresh out of the pot.
Many gourmets will go to the back hall and stay in front of the pot, waiting for the delicious bite before it is served.
But Liu Ruiying doesn't have so many requirements for food.
Instead of competing for that bite of umami, the whole dish should be placed on the table, and people should sit on the chair and eat it comfortably.
Even if the taste has declined, at least it is not so reluctant.
But Tivot didn't stop in the back hall, but kept walking forward.
Passing through the back hall, there is a side door.
It doesn't look like the back hall is a place to carry ingredients or dump swill.
Because of this door, it is powdered snow-white.
There are no decorations, but they are full of fresh carved patterns.
Looking closely, Liu Ruiying couldn't make out what kind of style it was.
I just think that it is somewhat similar to the ornamentation on the Dingxi Palace, there is a strong northwest roughness, and there are many elements of the grassland mixed in it.
Although the style of this ornament is bold, the workmanship is extremely fine.
Moreover, someone must wipe it down every day.
Otherwise, how could this door remain so white in the back hall?
Under the door is the third-order bluestone rock.
"This is the old man's own small world, but no outsiders have come for a long time. β
Di Wei Tai stood in the doorway and said.
"I have heard for a long time that the master of Di Lou has worked in Wendao to participate in the creation of the road, and he has always been able to pass through all the ways, and there must be a hole in the sky behind this door!"
Ou Yaming said.
Divitai smiled and didn't speak.
With his character, he must have said a few words at this moment to be polite and self-deprecating, but he didn't.
Presumably, I have a lot of confidence and pride in the place behind my door.
I don't think there's any need to be polite.
Good is good, hard to find in the world.
Since they are already so unique, what else do you need to be polite?
Divitte reached out and pushed the door open.
The back of the door is as Ou Yamin said, it is not a private room or a house.
It's a big yard.
The literati are elegant, so the things they like are also very exquisite.
The mountains and rivers in nature are too big, and although they look magnificent, it is too hard to see them every day.
So some people came up with a way to shrink the mountains and rivers in nature according to a certain proportion and put them in their homes.
Every morning, get up and push the window, the mountain enters the eyes, and the water moistens the heart, isn't it beautiful and enjoyable?
As a result, this style of gardening flourished among scholars.
Compared with Wu Xiu's preference for big mansions, scholars are more willing to climb whose garden is bigger, the mountains are higher, the water is more, and the scenery is more elegant.
What is a pond with three mountains, ten miles and nine waters, and so on, and so on.
Ordinary gardens, because of the limited conditions, can only be imitated.
The stone is the mountain, the ring bucket is the water, and countless flowers and plants are planted between the mountains and rivers.
But the garden of Di Weitai is not comparable to those who draw scoops according to gourds.
This is the real mountain and the real water that cuts the stream and the valley!
The valley is one of the ten wonders of Bogulou on the Leyou Plain, and the beginning of thousands of peaks.
The creek is one of the great wonders of Bogulou on the Leyou Plain, and the source of the river that does not freeze in all seasons.
"This courtyard is an old and clumsy work, which makes everyone laugh. β
Di Weitai's polite words only came out at this time.
However, if you say it before you push the door open, everyone will listen to it.
Now that I see this garden, and hear his words, anyone will feel admiration and envy.
Liu Ruiying still knows a little about the method of gardening.
After all, there are many civil officials in the central capital, and there are also many objects.
Because of the abundance and peace, both civil officials and military generals in the Qingzhong royal domain will build a garden in the mansion for recreation.
Although it was amusement, Liu Ruiying didn't think they could go in a few times a year.
Presumably, they are used by tourists to show off their faΓ§ade when they visit.
The main thing in the garden is to look at the landscape, which is like taking out the things in the "Sutra" that Zhang Xuezhu read from the pages of the book and putting them in front of him.
A good garden is like a person swimming in a painting, changing the scenery step by step, making people feel like a peak on the side of the ridge.
However, in the stacked mountains and water, the stacked mountains are the most financially intensive.
Liu Ruiying didn't expect that Di Weitai was still such an outstanding mountain craftsman.
Generally speaking, the mountain is generally composed of a combination of earth and rock.
If there is no stone and no soil, it will look too desolate, and if there is soil and no stone, it will lose its edges and corners.
But it's not a simple half-to-half.
Liu Ruiying saw that the mountains in Di Weitai's courtyard were lush and wild, obviously based on soil and supplemented by stone.
There is also a pond on the side of the mountain, and the shore is paved with white sand brought from the East China Sea.
The white sand paved on the pondside and the flat ground, interlaced with dogs' teeth, and the twists and turns are smooth, which is a picture of Hiraoka Kosaka, and the state of the bending shore and returning to the sand.
But in this garden, there is more than one mountain, and there is more than one water.
Not far away, there is another mountain, which is dominated by stone at a glance.
The mountain is rugged and steep, steep and high, but it is much more majestic than this earth mountain, as if it is a core place.
The lower part of the mountain is hidden by the pine and cypress, and the valley stream and ravine can be faintly seen.
Next to this mountain, there is living water, not still water like a pond.
The still water of the pond can also be like a mirror, reflecting the sky and clouds.
And there are lotus swimming fish in the pool, which are combined with movement and static, and contrast with each other.
Everyone walked with the water, thinking that as long as they walked to the poor place of the water, it would definitely be the place of the feast today.
The water turns with the mountain, and the mountain lives because of the water.
However, Liu Ruiying has come to this point, and she always feels that something is missing.
Although he knows a little bit about it, it is nothing more than a few times that he has seen it, but he is not even an introduction to gardening.
Walking around the pond, the fish swimming at your feet are eager to try.
Liu Ruiying subconsciously glanced at the three halves of the wine, for fear that he would stand on the small bridge to feed the fish like he did before entering the tea house.
He saw that the third half of the wine was still and stared at the fish in the pond.
Watching the mouth of its door stick out of the water and close one by one, he also learns from them to close one by one.
Liu Ruiying looked at it and wanted to laugh, but everyone had already walked forward, so they had to pull him and continue to walk forward.
"Why do you like fish so much?"
Liu Ruiying asked.
"Because I haven't seen it. β
The wine three halves said it very lightly.
But his eyes were still on those friends in the water.
"How come you haven't seen a fish?"
In fact, what Liu Ruiying wanted to say was that he had invited him to eat fish, and he was very happy.
He ate half of the fish's body, not even the fish's head.
Isn't it a contradiction that people who have eaten fish still say they have never seen fish?
"In my village, although there is water, springs and wells, the water is so deep that there are no fish alive. It's the first time I've seen so many fish swimming together. β
The wine three halves said.
Liu Ruiying listened and nodded.
Indeed, as the wine three halves say, the well water is too deep, the fish will suffocate, and the spring water is too urgent, and the fish have no place to stay.
However, this is a new discovery.
Before that, Liu Ruiying only felt that the life before the third and a half years of wine was like half a savage.
Unexpectedly, he was embraced by nature every day, but he had never even seen a fish.
It's no wonder why he would feed the fish at the door of the cafΓ© before.
A hint of pride rose in Liu Ruiying's heart.
It is said that geographical location determines fate, and now it seems to be true.
He was born in the middle capital, what has he not seen?
You don't want to stuff all the good things in your pocket, and you don't look at them and push them into your eyes.
But it's not comparable to three and a half thousand wines.
However, if you see too much and have too much, you will easily become numb.
To be honest, Liu Ruiying doesn't have too many feelings about this garden.
He was completely unable to appreciate the pleasure of three halves of wine.
Just a few live fish make him so happy, but what is Liu Ruiying's happiness?
Even if some people are only eight buckets tall and rich, they have lived in the corner all their lives, and they are afraid that they will not be able to shine in their lives.
Therefore, many people will go to great lengths to come to Bogulou, just like the three halves of wine have to run out of Jiuxing Village no matter what.
Although these practices are utilitarian in their thinking, this is the way of the world.
People and things can be judged by the contribution they make and the value of their achievements.
The premise of life is survival.
Survival is about eating and drinking enough and getting enough sleep.
This standard may seem low and simple, but how many people fail to meet it in their lifetime.
In fact, Liu Ruiying is very eager to be able to exchange with the birth of the third half of the wine.
The last thing he can stand is being bound by rules.
Although Liu Ruiying doesn't hate the errand of the Investigation Division, once a hobby is requested, his enthusiasm will naturally decay greatly.
The three halves of the wine seem to be doing useless things, but he lives a hundred times more wonderful than Liu Ruiying.
Liu Ruiying does everything with a purpose, and will never open her mouth for no reason, nor will she make a move for no reason.
But he couldn't find the purity of the wine three halves.
The Central Investigation Division is like a forest.
When one tree shakes, the other tree will inevitably shake as well.
It is like a cloud in the sky, and a cloud pushes a cloud away.
But now, he and the wine are three and a half, but one soul awakens the other.
This is an experience that Liu Ruiying will never have in his life in the Investigation Division, even if he becomes the director, it is impossible.
The Investigation Division has always been a conquest, and it only needs to consider how majestic the deterrence is, not how much each individual can bear.
However, the three halves of wine can respect their own concerns, follow their own choices, and will not be isolated by the framework.
Discipline can bring order, but in exchange for a thoughtless walking corpse
Liu Ruiying saw Ou Xiao'e next to her with a calm face.
Such a garden is also available in his Ou family.
And it's not necessarily worse than this Dicwell's.
The discipline of the Investigation Division, his Ou family also has it.
And it's not necessarily looser than that of the Investigation Division.
Although her eyes occasionally showed joy and surprise, she was still generally well-informed and felt that everywhere was unremarkable.
Liu Ruiying felt an inexplicable heartache.
He really couldn't bear to watch a girl with such a distinct personality and full of vitality become cautious about drinking step by step under such a framework.
Among the crowd, only Ou Yaming and Lu Mingming talked and laughed, and Ou Yaming even said that if anyone drank too much for a while, they would jump into this pond and soak it for half an hour.
But Lu obviously knew that he and his alcohol were half a catty and eight taels, how many years had they known each other, and they couldn't tell the winner.
"What if it's a tie?"
Lu Ming asked.
"If it's a tie, let's jump in together. β
Ou Yaming shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
"It's all jumped in, how can you tell the difference?"
Lu Ming asked.
"Isn't it already divided?If you jump in, it's a draw?!"
Ou Yaming said suspiciously.
He didn't know what else could be divided into this pond, could it be that it was to see who would soak for a long time?
If it is really compared to this, with the cultivation level of him and Lu Mingming, I am afraid that it will not be able to tell the winner from the Qingming Festival to the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"Quite simply, more popular than whom. β
Lu Mingming said.
"It's all soaked in the pond, how can it be more popular than anyone?"
Ou Yaming said and straightened the front of his shirt, as if he wanted to make himself more handsome and straight.
"Let them choose. β
Lu Ming pointed to the fish in the pond and said.
"Fish?"
Ou Yaming was surprised.
"That's right, fish! There's no way to cheat like this, it's absolutely fair! When the time comes, whoever has more fish around us will win!"
Lu Mingming said.
Ou Yaming was immediately interested.
He and Lu Mingming have not gambled once or twice, but there has never been such a unique thing.
immediately responded, but he didn't see Lu Ming turned his head to look at the fish and smiled secretly.
It wasn't until he walked to the foot of another stone mountain that Liu Ruiying realized what he felt was missing.
The lower half of the mountain was hollowed out, and the three corridors were coiled forward from the left, middle and right sides.
And what he felt was missing was this 'corridor'.
The previous scenery in this garden, although very beautiful, was inevitably a little too dense.
If this dazzling array continues, the level of Diweitai's gardening can only be regarded as average.
After all, as long as there is enough financial support, it is nothing more than stacking all the good things on top of each other, who can't do this?
Children know how to choose some beautiful leaves for their meals, but many of them are too tall for them to reach, and if they can, they will definitely wipe out the whole branch.
But at the foot of this stone mountain, as soon as the three corridors opened, the realm was suddenly different.
The space immediately changed dramatically.
Although this corridor in the garden, it seems to destroy the sense of harmony of nature, but if there is no blank space for these covered bridges to cross the vertical and horizontal divisions, this garden will be no different from the place where the wine and the three halves are grazed sheep and cattle.
Weeds can grow wherever they want, and wildflowers can grow wherever they want.
Then why bother to go to great lengths to repair the garden? It is better to find a field and build a shed.
The significance of the garden lies in the fact that it embodies the mind of the owner.
Where there are flowers, where can there be flowers, where can there be trees, where can there be shade.
In this way, it not only satisfies the pursuit of beauty in his mind, but also satisfies his desire for absolute control over this side of the world.
No matter who it is, there will be a perverted obsession with this right to speak.
It's just that the higher the status, the more humble he is, he knows it in his heart, and he doesn't say it in his mouth.
Among the investigation divisions of the Central Capital, the ones with the biggest temper belong to those who guard the door.
When you meet him, you are in a good mood, and you have nothing important to do, so you can ride the horse and whip up, and drive straight in.
If he is in a bad mood, even if you really have something important to do, they will stop you for questioning.
But there was nothing anyone could do.
Because according to the system, others are doing the right thing.
The right to speak about who can enter the door and how to enter the door is in the hands of others.
Since someone else wants to use it, you can only let him use it.
Di Weitai naturally will not easily use his voice in these trivial worlds, but is his heart different from these gatekeepers?
Even if the status is different, the pattern and angle of considering the problem are different, but these basic desires have always been present to Di Weitai.
However, isn't this garden just the place where he exercises his right to speak in self-respect?
Di Weitai endowed every plant and tree in this garden with virtue and meaning, and constantly transferred flowers and trees, just like constantly dispatching troops, all at his own mercy.
"Lord Di Lou's garden-making skills are inevitably too superb!"
After making a bet with Lu Mingming, Ou Yaming turned to Di Weitai and said.
He is the head of the Ou family, a contemporary 'sword', he can't just care about frolicking, but he can't miss a word about the scene.
"There is truth and falsehood, and it is not a real ability to make a fake come true. β
Di Weitai waved his hand and said.
"But why didn't you build a pavilion in this garden?"
Ou Yaming asked.
This sentence made Lu Ming feel excited.
What does Oyamin do?
Why is there such a sharp edge hidden in words all of a sudden?
It has been recorded in the history books that when a certain dynasty was founded, the name of the country was established, the calendar was redivided, the agricultural mulberry was advised, and the education was carried out. In addition, it is necessary to cast eight statues, engrave four monuments, and stand in the four levels and eight directions of the world, so as to highlight the prestige, stabilize the society, and consolidate the country.
But at the end of this dynasty, the majesty of the Son of Heaven was gone, the mountains and rivers were broken, and the wind and rain were shaky.
The heroes from all over the country rose up, known as the thirty-six rebels, and the seventy-two smoke and dust, which shows the menacing momentum.
One of the most powerful party is strong, under the Imperial City of Lema, he asked loudly: "I heard that Your Majesty has four steles and eight tripods, dare to ask how high the stele is?"
The Son of Heaven was angry and silent.
As a result, the stele has become a taboo word in all dynasties
No matter who carves a stele or casts a tripod without permission, it is a capital crime for the nine clans.
If you ask each other, it means that you have rebelled.
If it is privately cast, isn't it equivalent to establishing another world?
After the fall of this dynasty, the stele did not exist, and it was replaced by a party that was too easy to Taiwan.
This Taiyitai represents the supreme status, rights and dignity of the last imperial ruler, the old man of the Star Sword.
However, the magnificent and luxurious Taiyi Tai collapsed with the fall of the imperial dynasty and the fall of the ruler Star Sword Old Man and disappeared into the torrent of years, and was not mentioned for many years.
Although the five kings did not order to prohibit the construction of the platform, who would touch this mold?
In this world, there are very few things that can be put on the bright side, and most of them are not visible.
However, there are a few wealthy generals, relying on their wealth to rival the country, and their military achievements are outstanding, and they have built a small platform in their own homeland.
It was not as small as the steps in front of their mansion.
However, within a few months of its construction, the general was executed for treason, and the rich man committed suicide due to the collapse of his business, but none of them died well.
It is said that the rich man hanged himself on the platform he built.
Although these are rumors that do not catch the wind and shadows, but there is no wind and no waves, if there is no prototype to rely on, how can such a story be told?
Although it is inevitable that some people will exaggerate, it can be seen that the concept of this monument, tripod, platform, and three things in the hearts of people all over the world.
Now, Ou Yaming actually asked such a question, and Lu Mingming heard it in his ears, and he couldn't help but be aroused into a cold sweat.
"The master of the Ou family thinks I should set up one in this garden?"
Di Weitai stood still, and asked slowly and rhetorically.
"Of course, with the status of the Wenzong of Di Lou and Bo Gu Lou, how can there be no one side of the high platform? Before coming to your mansion this time, I first went to Tongjin Pavilion to give a sword to an old friend. I haven't seen each other for many years, and the two of us were going to drink and talk, but I didn't expect him to take the sword and leave in a hurry. β
Ou Yaming said, his tone revealing a deep helplessness.
"Oh, but why? Even if you don't give face to the head of the Ou family, you have to give face to your old friend. β
Divitai remained silent.
He just added fuel to the fire inch by inch, allowing Ou Yaming to say what he really meant in his heart.
He said that Tongjin Pavilion is currently under construction, and as a builder, it is not easy for him to leave for too long. In case there is a deviation, the boss blames it, and he can't afford it. β
Ou Yaming said.
His words came to an abrupt end at every critical moment.
The display asks why there is no station.
Then he said that he went to the other side of the Wendao giant, and gave a sword to his old friend in the pavilion.
Then the old friends were in a hurry, drinking and chatting all the time, leading to the construction of Bogulou.
It seems to have nothing to do with it, but in fact it is shocking.
None of the words led Di Weitai to ask, as long as he asked, it was not his own initiative to speak.
After all, this opening is right and wrong, and no matter how you say it, it will inevitably be suspected of provoking and instigating.
But the answer is different, ask and answer.
Even if it is no matter how big or small, when it is passed out, others can only say that this person is too successful and does not understand politeness, but he can't say more than half of the words, so people have nowhere to find fault at all.
But how could Di Weitai not know the plan in Ou Yaming's heart?
When he heard the words "big construction", he knew that it must be related to this 'platform'.
It's just that what came out of his mouth was a faint sentence:
"Entrusted by people, loyal to people! Ou family master, this friend must also be the pillar of Tongjin Pavilion, think that if my Bogulou can have such a responsible person, why worry that this northwest literary world is not prosperous?"
In the words, he did not mention a word about Ou Yaming's set, and then it was a praise for Tongjin Pavilion and a word of hope for the future development of Bogulou.
"With the lord of Di Lou in charge, it is already to make the Northwest Wendao Ye shine! If you want to come to the dragon and tiger fight in the literary world of Zhongdu this summer, you must be in the chest. β
Ou Yaming saw that his set was in vain, and he was not in a hurry.
After the compliments, a new set was thrown out in the blink of an eye.
He thought to himself that the last set of you Di Weitai can fool and prevaricate, then I will throw a ladder to you, so that it is convenient for me to make up for it, and in an instant, it can be a ball of harmony.
"The master of the Ou family praised it falsely, for such a major event, I Bogulou has sharpened my sword for ten years, and I should go all out. However, it is up to people to plan things and things to be successful, so what can be gained depends on the will of God. β
Divi said.
"Presumably, the head of the Ou family will not miss this grand event, right?"
Divitte then asked.
"I will definitely be there on time. When I thought about the last time I fought with the dragon and tiger, I was humble and humble in my lower body, and I was far from qualified to participate in such a grand event. Now he can take the title of the Ou family, show off, and go to join in the fun. But after all, I'm a layman.,Weekdays are doing some rough work of striking iron and sweating.,If I have half of the pen and ink.,Maybe I'll get a body and clothes.,Go to show your style.γ β
Ou Yaming said with a smile.
While talking and laughing, this garden has come to an end.
Liu Ruiying saw a row of tall and short houses appear in front of him.
