Chapter 569: Into Qingzhou
The land of Qingzhou is dominated by Fangcheng. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info is square and decent.
The buildings in the city, where is the land of the rich, where is the place of the people, the east and west streets are a few zhang wide, the north and south main roads are a little horizontal, the division is clear, there are fixed numbers, people are clear at a glance.
Xiao Yi looked at it at first, and he had a lot of words in his heart, and said secretly: "Confucianism separates the rich and the poor, which is equivalent to dividing people into three, six, nine, and so on, how can the people be convinced?"
But after entering the city, I found that the scene was completely different from what I imagined.
I saw a handsome boy in brocade clothes and a folding fan walking among a group of people. When the people saw this, they all saluted and inquired with him.
The boy is also very humble, and every time he returns the salute, he never drops a salute.
After the boy passed, a middle-aged man said to the ten-year-old children next to him: "Xu Gongzi was also born in poverty, and he has finally achieved fame after ten years of cold windows. In the future, you must take Xu Gongzi as an example, study hard, seek fame, and serve the people of the world. ”
The child nodded vigorously, and said with a firm gaze: "Father, don't worry, the child will work hard." ”
Xiao Yi's heart was shaken, and he couldn't help but stop.
Taoists believe that people should follow the laws of nature. However, the behavior of Confucianism wants to go against the trend through its own efforts.
This behavior has violated the natural way of indisputability, but Xiao Yi faintly feels in his heart that this behavior is quite beneficial to human beings.
He pondered for a moment and pondered: "Man has unlimited potential, but if he has no quarrel with all, how can he give full play to his potential?
This idea is quite contrary to Taoist Wuwei, but after experiencing the Hundred Schools of Taoism, his thinking gradually matured, and he soon found a balance between the two.
He said to himself: "The way of Confucianism can make people progressive, and the way of Taoism can make people feel peaceful." Seek what you want in the absence of desire, and seek what you want in the absence of action. The combination of the two ways is not harmful to the body, but also can be motivated, which is the best. Moreover, the Confucian way is in contention, but it is only a small nature in nature, and it does not violate the meaning of the great road without contention. I'm a little more focused, and I'm still a little pretentious. ”
After figuring this out, it is natural to look at the behavior of the people.
Walking further in, I saw that the people here were very polite and respectful to each other. But when Xiao Yi first arrived, he always felt that everyone was a little rusty and not as enthusiastic as the people in other places.
Shen Yirou seemed to see his thoughts and explained: "'The connection of a gentleman is like water, and the connection of a villain is like a liquor. The gentleman is indifferent, and the villain is willing to be bad. This is how people deal with each other, today's friendship is sweet, but it is difficult to ensure a lifelong friendship. Only this kind of friendship like water can last long. ”
Xiao Yi has experienced the test of asking questions from all over the world, knows a lot about interpersonal relationships, and has thought about such problems in ordinary times, once he tasted it, he immediately understood, and nodded: "Yes, it should be so." ”
When the relationship between the two is too close, not only will the mentality of the two people change, but also the mutual expectation will increase invisibly. One day, when expectations are higher than reality, the relationship will break down. In the end, it's not as good as being as light as water at the beginning.
The customs of the characters here are completely different from those of the Buddhist family in Yuzhou. In Yuzhou, the people saw the appearance of the two people, and they all came forward to ask for help, but when they arrived here, the people did not take the initiative to help. In this way, it is a bit troublesome to find a place to stay.
Moreover, Xiao Yi found that when the people here look at people, they always look at them and don't look over their heads, and never look at them more. He also knows a lot about the way of Confucianism, understands the principle of "don't look at incivility", and sighed in his heart: "The people here abide by etiquette, and it is indeed a place of indoctrination." ”
However, after a while, he suddenly caught that when the people looked at the two of them, their eyes were quite unkind, especially when they looked at Shen Yirou, there was a trace of disdain.
Xiao Yi was very puzzled in his heart. At this time, I suddenly heard an old man sigh softly: "Today's young people are really shameless, in broad daylight, they actually give and accept kisses, what kind of system has they become?
Xiao Yi suddenly realized that this place attaches great importance to the defense of men and women. When I looked down, I saw that Shen Yirou had already blushed, but she just closed her eyes and pretended to be calm.
Xiao Yi couldn't help but wonder: "Miss Shen is seriously injured and can't move. Holding it like this, it was spurned again. How's that okay?"
I didn't have a plan left and right, and I thought it would be better to leave quickly. At the moment, when I saw the direction out of the city, I wanted to leave.
After walking for a while, I saw that there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road, and it turned out that I was close to the rich people's area. The house architecture here is very exquisite, carved beams and painted buildings, the meaning is profound, and it is far from being comparable to ordinary houses. Moreover, the pedestrians on the road are all well-dressed, elegant, well-founded, and graceful.
Xiao Yi couldn't help but think: "Maybe this is the place that ordinary people want to achieve all their lives." But after seeing the big difference between the two, his thinking changed again, and he said: "It is good for people to have goals, but if they are too persistent, it will be counterproductive." Therefore, in the way of Confucianism, it is necessary to integrate Taoist inaction and mediate. Otherwise, some people will not be able to ask for it, and it is easy to be polarized because of respect and hatred, which violates the golden mean. ”
At this time, I suddenly heard someone chanting from above: "The wine cup must be full when you drink it, and the flowers and branches will fall one after another." Mo Yan is thirty years old, and one point is one point at the age of 100. ”
When Xiao Yi heard this, he felt a sense in his heart, and couldn't help but praise: "Good poetry!" Looking up, he saw the two of them sitting in a three-story building, drinking together.
Both of them were dressed in Confucian robes, wearing crowns on their heads, dressed similarly, and of similar age. It's just that one of them has red lips and white teeth, and his skin is white and tender, and at first glance he looks like a rich boy who has not suffered, while the other person has dark skin and a strong body, as if he was born as a disciple of a peasant family, and he is very at odds with the Confucian shirt on his body.
When they heard someone praising a hymn, they also followed the prestige. But after seeing Xiao Yi, they all frowned. The rich boy said, "Can you understand the meaning of the poem? The tone was not good, full of suspicion.
Xiao Yi is wearing the clothes of ordinary people in Yuzhou, as a flat-headed person, when he comes to the rich area, he dares to speak openly and talk about other people's poems, which will naturally be questioned.
Xiao Yi smiled and shook his head, ready to ignore it and leave directly. Who knew that the door on the first floor was open, and more than a dozen strong men rushed out.
The strong men surrounded Xiao Yi and said, "If you disturb the purity of others, you should be punished for your crimes." "Then come forward and fetch someone.
At this time, I listened to the poet upstairs: "Wait!", and then said to the rich man: "Although this person is poorly dressed, he has a dignified appearance and a heroic spirit, and he thinks he is also a member of my generation." If he can praise my verses, or maybe he has ink in his belly, why not listen to what he has to say. If it is unreasonable, it is not too late to punish him. ”
The rich boy said: "Today, Brother Su is the master, and Zeng is a guest, so I will listen to Brother Su's words and listen to his arguments." With a wave of his hand, everyone got out of the way, "Please" Xiao Yi go upstairs.
ps: The author of this poem is Bai Juyi. The theft here, I hope you can distinguish it. (To be continued.) )
