Chapter 161: Two Merchants

The king said: "Today, I want to hold a banquet to entertain the big chief, and the small officials must also come to participate." "Li Er went back to report the situation here to the king, although the official position was not big, and the king of Yan did not dare to wait slowly.

The young lady stepped forward and said: "King Rongyu: The minister and the junior official have an appointment in the Taixue Mansion, and the minister has nothing to do here, and he is willing to take the junior official to Bogu Tongjin Pavilion." ”

The king said: "Yes, remember to take the little officials to the palace to participate in the lonely banquet when you were there." ”

Miss and Li Er arched their hands and said, "Thank you, King, farewell!"

The young lady took Li Er out of the courtyard, and said as she walked: "Bogu Tongjin Pavilion is more than four miles away from here, can a little official ride a horse?"

Li Er said: "I have never ridden a horse, and I am afraid to ride on a horse." But since I was a child, I have been serving the cattle at home, and I am familiar with the temperament of the cow, so I dare to ride the cow. ”

The young lady said: "I heard that the little official came this time and took an ox cart, so that's the case. ”

Li Er said: "Yesterday, your mansion Guanfengzi picked me up and took me to the mansion, and I waited for the adults for a long time and didn't return, I didn't want the big chief to come." ”

The young lady said: "It was very interesting to greet the big chief yesterday, and I have gained a lot of knowledge. ”

Li Er said: "Today's things in the hall are very intriguing. ”

The two walked out of the gate of the inner palace and came to the outer palace while talking.

Li Er said, "Your Excellency, please stay at the palace gate, I will go and fetch the cow." After speaking, he walked towards the slave residence area of the outer palace.

The young lady came to the palace gate, untied the horse from the bolted horse pile, and waited for Li Er, who came with the ox in a moment.

When Li Er went out of the palace gate, the two of them got on the horse and the other on the cow, and went towards the Bogu Tongjin Pavilion.

The young lady asked as she walked, "Lord Li Chun, don't come?"

Li Er said: "Thank you, my lord, Master is very good, and I had a gathering in the mansion with my former master a few days ago." ”

The young lady asked, "What kind of person is your former teacher, Shang Rong?"

Li Er said: "Master Shang Rong is a casual person, eclectic, can do everything according to the situation, I have benefited a lot from studying with Master. ”

The young lady said: "The prime minister of the former dynasty Shang Xuan is also called Shang Rong, I don't know what it has to do with the junior official and the former teacher?"

Miss has more and more experience, and there is a precedent of Qingfeng Guanqingfengzi Guanfengzi, and she wonders if these two businessmen are also related to Qingfengguan. On that day, Guan Fengzi proposed to give the name, and the young lady felt that this Qingfeng concept was much beyond her imagination, and this merchant was probably a person with a lot of stories. Li Chun is Shang Rong's senior brother, both of them are erudite, one is an official in the royal family, and the other is a citizen in the countryside, it is likely to be the same as Qingfeng Guan, it is not as simple as what can be seen on the surface, so there is this question.

Li Er said: "I also asked Master this question raised by my lord, and Master said that the prime minister of the previous dynasty, Shang Rong, was a model for their clan, and the same name was just a commemoration. ”

The young lady listened and pondered secretly: "The understanding of the name of Fuyunzi is that it is just a code name, like Fuyunzi, anyone can use it. The understanding of this Shang Rong is a commemoration, and the same name of the clan leaves a memory. One is refreshing, the other is profound, which is ....... ”

Just thinking about it, Li Er said: "The adults are responsible for compiling the illustrated books, I don't know how many volumes have been completed?"

The young lady stopped thinking, straightened her thoughts, and said, "A total of thirteen books have been compiled. After speaking, he asked: "The little official came to the northern countries this time, I don't know which countries he is going to?"

Li Er said: "After I have been here, I will go to Qi State, Lu State, Song State, Wei State, and Zheng State. Except for the Yan Kingdom, the Qi Kingdom, and the Lu Kingdom, other small northern countries only go once in three years. After speaking, he asked, "What is the name of the book compiled by the adults, and the book compiled by their own speeches?"

The young lady said: "My court remarks, the book compiled is called "One Zai Two Domains", and the content is not very much. ”

Li Er said: "The adult's book must be exquisite, I don't understand something, and I hope the adult will advise." ”

The young lady said: "Well, I don't know how long the time limit for the little official's trip is?"

Li Er said: "The time limit is three months. ”

The young lady said: "I heard that the little officials have learned astronomy, and I have questions, but I can just learn about it." ”

Li Er asked, "Your Excellency also wants to dabble in the law of astronomy and geography?"

The young lady said: "I just touched upon, and I am studying the Hetuluo book." ”

Li Er said: "Hetuluo is the foundation of all learning, it seems simple, but it is actually mysterious. ”

The young lady said, "The little official may tell me in detail?"

Li Er said: "The odd and even number of Hetu should be the friends of yin and yang, and the three talents of Luo Shu should be clear, and the life of yin and yang should be secret." ”

When the young lady heard this, she carefully looked at Li Er beside her again: Li Er was riding on the ox, not worthy of the saddle, not with the cow rope, and moved naturally with the pace of the ox, and patted the neck of the cow with both hands from time to time, but the cow seemed to know Li Er's mind, and turned and moved with the rhythm of the hands to adjust the pace.

Li Er saw that the young lady was staring at him, and asked, "Is there anything wrong with what the lower official said?"

The young lady said: "I see that you are comfortable riding a bull, and I can't help but take a few more looks." ”

Li Er said: "Xiaguan used to herd cattle, and he likes this thing very much, and he is very familiar with this thing. ”

At this time, a team of funeral parades came across from the two of them, blowing and beating, which was very lively. The two of them beat the horse and the other patted the cow, followed the passers-by to the side of the road, and watched the funeral procession pass by.

Li Er said: "My lord, please look at this funeral, it is cumbersome and complicated, although it is fancy and lively, but what is the use of people in the past?"

The young lady said: "The world is nostalgic, only the form, between this red dust, how many people's eyes are covered?"

Li Er said: "Having said that, how many people can see through it?"

The two stopped talking, each pondering, and when the team had passed, the two continued to follow the passers-by towards the Bogu Tongjin Pavilion.

After a paragraph, the young lady asked: "I heard that the petty officials have already learned a little about the method of contemplating physiognomy, yesterday my foreign affairs director watched the wind, how did the petty officials look?"

Li Er said: "I still have a shallow study, so I don't dare to say it, but the adults have already asked, so I will say it, this word is only between you and me, and please don't spread it." ”

The young lady said: "Don't worry, little official, I am the first to mention in the family rules that it is not allowed to gossip, but it is okay to say it." ”

Li Er said: "Guanfengzi's body is through the sky, and he can bear heavy responsibilities; he is round and thick, and he is steadfast in latitude; his eyes are beautiful and long, and he has a long life; his skin is smooth and smooth, he is happy and quiet; his bones are clear and his teeth are white, he is smart and clever; his eyes are sharp and his nose is uplifted, and everything can be done." After speaking, he said to the young lady: "My lord is also interested in this face-to-face technique?"

The young lady said: "Stargazing and looking at the earth are all astronomical and geographical, and I will learn it sooner or later." ”

Li Er said: "The art of astronomy and geography is quite mysterious, and it is not easy to think that Pangu opened the world, recognized the cave, and embodied the blessed land. ”

The young lady said: "The little official is really talented, today I heard the words of the little official, do not reprimand Tianyin, since I have arrived in Yan Country, and live a few more days, you and I will have a discussion." The heart said: "No wonder Fuyunzi can take a fancy to this Li Er, he is not very old, but what he said is very, he must let Guanfengzi take a look, and he will learn in the future, and there will be a comparison." ”

Li Er said: "Xia Guan has this intention. The heart said: "The adult wants to compete with the heavenly thunder, and what to say depends on the adult's means." ”
