Volume II: Yin and Yang Harmony Chapter 39
Chapter 39: After the soil is the quilt, the sky is home
Lu Zhi had just resigned from the post of Jiujiang Taishou at this moment and returned to the Lu Mansion in Zhuozhou, so it can be said that He Hanwen came just in time. If he had come to Zhuozhou day and night, he would have to wait in this place for a few months before he could see Lu Zhi.
Of course, He Hanwen didn't know the reason for this, he just came to Lu Zhi's mansion alone, sorted out his clothes and knocked on the door of Lu Mansion.
After a while, an old servant asked in a slightly tired voice through the door, "Who is outside the door, and what are you doing?"
He Hanwen didn't know the depths, so he had to answer cautiously: "The younger Hu Ben Zhonglang will bring He Jin's second son, He Hanwen, with a letter from the elders in the family, to visit the doctor!" After speaking, he made a formal gesture and stayed in front of the door.
As soon as the old servant heard that He Hanwen had signed up for himself, he was a descendant of the gate valve, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately opened the bronze door, and saw a young descendant standing respectfully in front of the door and saluting, although his face was tired but his temperament was extraordinary, it was He Hanwen is also.
"Oh, the old slave can't afford it. The old man is at home, waiting for the old slave to report, and ask the son to wait for a while, don't be surprised!"
The little guy brought a bowl of hot tea and a few handkerchiefs and gave them to He Hanwen to use. He Hanwen politely thanked him politely, took the tea bowl with both hands, took a few sips carefully, returned it to the young man, and then took the handkerchief, carefully wiped his face and hands, and then stood outside the door again. When the young guy saw He Hanwen like this, he didn't dare to speak, and only stood on the inside of the door to accompany him.
After a while, the old servant returned and said: "He Gongzi, the master knows that the son has arrived, but the master is practicing the scriptures in the study at the moment, I am afraid that there will be neglect, it is better for the son to enter the house to rest first, and the old slave will be entertained." ”
He Hanwen saw that Lu Zhi had serious things to do at the moment, so he allowed him to enter the house with the old servant, walked through the vestibule, and came to the main hall.
The old servant led the way in front, and He Hanwen carefully observed the interior of the Lu Mansion. Unlike ordinary mansions, the interior of the mansion is very clean, and even looks a little simple. Among them, there are not only gold and jade, but also no books, poems, calligraphy and paintings, only classic works carved on the walls. If you look closely, the engraving is vigorous and powerful, and the person who engraved it must have a very high calligraphy attainment.
Until the main hall, seeing that there were already seats ready, He Hanwen happily took a seat, and then said: "Old man, Hanwen has thanked you here, but can you present this letter to the doctor first?"
The old servant readily agreed, took it carefully, and walked backwards out of the main hall door and went to the study in the backyard.
After about half an hour, He Hanwen also felt the kung fu of a cup of tea, and the old servant turned back, politely invited He Hanwen to move to the study, and said: "Salary, the master wants to see you in the study." ”
He Hanwen was happy in his heart, so he got up and said, "In this way, please ask the old gentleman to guide the way." ”
Before walking to the study, the old servant knocked on the door to explain the situation: "Master, He Gongzi has arrived." ”
"Please come in, and you will retreat by yourself. A middle-aged majestic voice came, presumably from Lu Zhi.
When the old servant heard this, he stepped aside and made a gesture of please. He Hanwen nodded in thanks, then sorted out his clothes, gently pushed the door in with both hands, and then carefully closed the door.
But seeing a majestic and tall middle-aged man with a long beard sitting in the banquet, He Hanwen's bamboo slip was spread out on the desk in front of him, presumably this person must be Lu Zhi.
"Hanwen, what a nice young man, please sit down and talk about it in detail. Lu Zhi made a gesture of please. He Hanwen hurriedly saluted, and then sat respectfully opposite Lu Zhi.
Lu Zhi: "I have already read the letter, and I want to hear about Hanwenru's ideals and ambitions about apprenticeship, and then make plans. ”
He Hanwen: "Hanwen thanked the doctor first, I don't know what the doctor wants to test the students?"
Lu Zhi: "I can't talk about the exam, just chat with the old man casually." ”
He Hanwen: "In this way, Hanwen will tell the story of Hanwen to the doctor, I don't know if it is possible?"
Lu Zhi: "Please speak. ”
He Hanwen is like this, like this, and he told him one by one about his experience of being driven out of He Mansion and being exiled to Zhuozhou, and the rights and wrongs in the middle cannot be commented on by the world, and Lu Zhizhi was amazed to hear it.
Lu Zhi: "I don't ask you what you think about the disaster, I only ask you, how do you see today?"
He Hanwen: "It seems to be peaceful, but in fact, it is a prelude to troubled times!"
Lu Zhi: "How can you make such remarks?"
He Hanwen: "Doctor, you should know better than students about all kinds of hidden dangers in the imperial court. Just like the calm before a storm, the world always shows signs of calm before a great catastrophe. My Han Dynasty, in the final analysis, is rooted in the family of gate valves. Those who gather together because of interests will form their own small groups, and the scholars and the scholars will collude together, and it is inevitable that there will be those who are in the camp and the dogs. As the so-called rat feces, a pot of porridge is ruined, in these acts of struggle for power and profit, if we can't grasp a dynamic balance and constraint, then the edifice will decline!"
Lu Zhi: "It's too pessimistic. ”
He Hanwen: "Non-students are pessimistic, but there are more natural and man-made disasters. Like what... The scourge of the party. ”
Lu Zhi: "This is not a problem you should consider, the Son of Heaven is on his mind, how can you speculate?!"
He Hanwen: "The student lost his words!"
Lu Zhi: "Hmph, it's okay, the old man just didn't hear it." Hanwen, if you are a spokesperson, how should you show the Son of Heaven and think that you are admonishing?"
He Hanwen: "The student has six words, can the doctor be interested in listening to it?"
Lu Zhi: "But it doesn't hurt to say it, what six words?"
He Hanwen: "One word is good: let the states and counties investigate the virtuous and appoint, according to the talent; the second word is to prepare the Kou: to give preferential treatment to the princely family to prevent rebellion; the third word to cultivate the body: to specially recruit the talented and famous people in the rivers and lakes, so that they can give advice and advice in front of the emperor; the fourth word of respect: according to a certain period of time, the state and county are too guarded, Assassin Shi to conduct performance appraisal; Wuyan Imperial Majesty: Put an end to vices such as holding banquets and asking for entrustment, and instruct relevant departments to do a good job of recommending meritocracy, which can also prevent collusion of interests and deception of superiors and subordinates; Liuyan Scattered Profits: In addition to the necessary funds, the royal family no longer accumulates money, but instead collects money into the treasury and is managed by talented people appointed by the Son of Heaven. These are the six words of student He Hanwen!"
After hearing this, Lu Zhi immediately got up, clapped his hands and praised: "Hanwen is really a young genius! Your six words are really secretly in line with the old man's heart! If the old man has the opportunity to meet the Son of Heaven, he will definitely put Hanwen's six words on the table!"
He Hanwen thanked him, and then said, "This is a blessing for Hanwen! I wonder if the student can follow the doctor to serve the scriptures?"
Lu Zhi: "The old man will accept you as a student, you came from afar, took care of the family affairs first, and listened to the lecture three days later." ”
He Hanwen: "The student thanked the teacher! But after the hero, the earth is the quilt, the sky is home, and you can take care of the family affairs for two days!" Lu Zhi didn't hold much back, only brushed his beard with a smile.
