Chapter 196 no wind nor rain
Li Yang in the three provinces and six ministries in addition to the establishment of six pavilions, the six pavilions of most of the bachelor is still vacant, but there are already more than 20 people one after another into the pavilion, among the degree of purity and nobility almost comparable to the Hanlin Academy Huangmenlang of the School Secretary, among them were Tantan Weng commented on “under the pen with God, bright and open, the most refreshing,” the rising star of the calligraphy of Dong Ju Ran, there is the Central Minister of the Order of the Qiyang Long do not cherish! There was the young painter Huang Quan, who was good at painting ghosts, gods, dragons and water, and these two, together with the ten-dan national player Fan Chang Hou, and the top scorer Gao Ting Shu, who had written a poem after returning from observing the border and had been elected by many Beijing scholars to be the finale of all the seven-poem poems of the 20th year of the Yong Hui reign, were known as the Four Scholarly Ambassadors of Poetry, Chess, Calligraphy and Painting who won the top prize respectively. In addition, his father had been the Ministry of Justice, the right minister of the same scholar Du Ming, serving in the Ministry of Justice for six years, no name, really hit the ground running, and out of office for many years his father co-wrote a total of seven volumes of the “Tongyin shocked collection”; Song Keli into the Hanlin Academy not long ago, it was submitted to the court even more brilliant masterpiece of the “xiangfu county county records”, rich in content, and narrative method, amazing, rumors of His Majesty, the emperor hand to the The Emperor is rumored to have read it by hand to the point of picking lamps and reading it at night, and wrote the preface for it. The same in the Hanlin Academy Yan Chi set within the three Huangmen Lang is also extraordinary, in the Qiyanglong Yao Baifeng several literary giants under the leadership of the outline, the success of the revision of Confucianism twelve kinds of scriptures, which attaches great importance to the court quickly made eighty-one stone monuments, stood in the door of the State Children’s Eunuch, monument monument articulation, so that all the world’s scholars to transcribe, for a period of time outside the State Children’s Eunuch night and night lights and at the same time, the imperial court formally promulgated the new calendar formulated by the Chintian Supervisors At the same time, the court formally promulgated the new calendar formulated by the QinTianMinistry, which was the first of its kind in terms of the method of deducing the first loss, the first eclipse, and the first recurrence of the circle that differed from place to place. At the time of spring and summer, Emperor Liyang held a banquet in his palace, inviting all the old people in the capital, including half of the survivors of the eight kingdoms in the Spring and Autumn Period.
All in the city of Tai’an Liyang people, probably for such a literary style of the flourishing of the melodious weather mixed feelings, so many settled in the capital for many years of the elderly Western Chu relics tears, dry fingers trembling off the top of the head that the court of Liyang from the ban on the unique cultural and elegant crown of the Western Chu.
The world knows that the son of the emperor’s family of dragon children and grandchildren to study is the diligence room, but I’m afraid that in addition to the Beijing officials few people know that in the diligence room not far away from the east side of the Confucian saint Zhang Sacred place of worship, this place hangs with the emperor’s royal pen inscription of the “heaven and earth together” four words plaque, enshrining the saint, as well as accompanied by the saints of the saints and saints of Confucianism in all generations of the sages. At this time, the young Liyang Emperor tilted his head to face the three gods and eight tablets, the emperor also stood beside three people, has been a purple minister of the Chen Wang, appeared in a family of two masters, but unfortunately all late in the Song family, Song Keli, and a majority of the people of the capital is very strange to the middle-aged Confucian scholar. The emperor spoke softly: “Song Ke Li, your family originally had hope in this place with two people, but your grandfather and your father have let the late emperor disappointment, things do not last three, I do not want you to let me disappointment once again.”
Song Ke Li lowered his head and bent over, slowly said, “I only have to bow and do my best.”
The emperor no longer speak, Song Ke Li so lowered his head, until Chen Wang gently tugged his sleeve, the two gently out of the room, Chen Wang is turned forward, Song Ke Li is always back toward the door of the room back out. Waiting for Chen Wang and Song Ke Li to go out and stay away, the eunuch in charge of the Secretarial Supervisor, Song Tang Lu, quietly closed the door.
The young emperor finally revealed a look of fatigue, while that middle-aged Confucian who had been qualified to face the saint without kneeling since his birth could not help but sigh, ”Your Majesty should not have indulged that Huishan woman. Although I am not a temple in the people, but also know for the human subjects, in the final analysis, but the accumulation of prestige, prestige two words disconnected, can be divided into the ears of the Son of Heaven sound, the matter is accomplished, that is, the so-called Jane in the heart of the Emperor, from the top and the bottom, the position of a very important person, just around the corner. Furthermore, it is always been officials verbal attention to the bottom of the heart contempt of the popularity, from the bottom and the top, the most is against the current, looking at the temple Secretary, seventy years insisted that the body in the far reaches of the river ‘wild escape of the people’ Qiyanglong, is the set of the great successor, hidden in the dynasty of the Tantan Weng Huan Wen followed by only suitable for learning is not suitable for the officials of the Yao Baifeng a little less, Ministry of Manners The Minister of Rites, Jin Lanting, has the heart but is unable to do so, and the real possibility of exceeding the height of the Yong Hui with the identity of Xiang Fu’s courtiers is the Chen Wang who accompanied Song Ke Li to leave together just now. That Xu family father and son, is not the orthodox sense of the Zhao family subjects, the more so, Xu Fengyen this person seizes more popularity, I am afraid that one day, than the late emperor to suppress Xu primrose, even more arduous.”
Zhao Zhuan calmly said, “Duke Diffractor is saying that that Xu Fengnian has a rebellious heart?”
The middle-aged man shook his head, “On the contrary, I have never thought that the Xu family father and son would have a rebellious heart, it was so after the battle of the Western Basement Wall back then, and it is still so now that the Liangmang War has opened up, no matter how much the situation of the war has changed.”
Zhao Zhuan frowned, “Isn’t that self-contradictory?”
The only scholar in the world who was born a saint because of his family name and rank, this middle-aged Confucian who was honored by Emperor Liyang as the Duke of Diffusion, sighed once again, “It’s not a contradiction, Your Majesty shouldn’t be looking at decades and decades, you should look at the longer term. Your Majesty, ask what is the origin of every rise and fall of dynasties?”
Zhao Zhuan laughed bitterly, “Diffractive Sage Gong’s examination is so big, I really do not know how to break the problem from a small place. If I were to say something vague, not to mention Lord Diffractor, even I myself would find it laughable.”
The Confucian scholar shook his head, “Your Majesty is wrong, terribly wrong.”
Zhao Zhuan sincerely said, “I implore Duke Diffractive Sage to clear up the confusion, here, you and I, there is nothing that cannot be said, nothing that cannot be said.”
The middle-aged man who was the contemporary head of the Diffractive Sage Mansion didn’t have any of the trepidation of an ordinary courtier who had reached the realm of pure fire, and just blandly said, “The sages of the Taoist family respected the eight words of ‘Absolute Sacredness and Abandonment of Wisdom, Absolute Benevolence and Abandonment of Righteousness’, and it seems to the later generations that even if they don’t go into the bellyaching, their heads would inevitably be filled with confusion. The reason for this is that for thousands of years, reading gradually easy, literacy more, the human heart with the change of the flood, Taoist sages that eight words, such as the management of floods with only a blocking word, the early storage of water is not deep, feasible, time has changed, is not feasible, when the sweat of the bull and even the text, turned into today’s childish children holding a book that is tens of thousands of words, your majesty, I Confucianism talk about etiquette and music talk about benevolence and righteousness, and for the reading of the people to set the rules, the rules and regulations, the rules and regulations, the rules and regulations, the rules and regulations, the rules and regulations. The combination of blocking and sparing, leaving gaps between the rules and rules for the world to follow etiquette and pass, both in accordance with the trend, but also as a last resort ah.”
The middle-aged man looked up to a tablet, “If the first emphasis on rituals and music, is my Confucianism for the son of heaven prescribed a prescription for the rule of the country, then the sole respect for Confucianism, is the founding emperor of the Dafeng dynasty to Confucianism a return gift. The root of the rise and fall of the world, in fact, it is seen by many people …… including his majesty as only a generalization of the rites and music collapse, rites and music collapse, benevolence, loyalty and faith will become rootless floating weeds. Relatives interfere in politics, eunuchs chaotic politics, clans and towns, party disputes scourge of the country, and even the emperor’s negligence, which is not a matter of bad manners? Perhaps Your Majesty will say that it is easy to know and difficult to do, and that the reasoning that a thousand-mile dike is destroyed by an anthill is understood by everyone, but we are not sages, and the world is so big, the territory is so wide, and the subjects are so many, as a king, how can we see where, when, and by whom the first anthill comes from? Is that what Your Majesty thinks?”
Zhao Zhuan laughed, “Seeing the smallest of things, knocking on the finger to know the long life, that’s a realm only for Xuanxuan masters. I’m pretty sloppy at reading, but practicing martial arts is really killing me.”
The middle-aged man also smiled heartily, reaching out to open his five fingers to grab in the void, “Then again, the reason why Xu Fengnian is the heart of this dynasty is not that he is disloyal, or even anything unrighteous, and even less so is that he is not courteous, as a matter of fact, this young vassal king may be unreasonable in a lot of things, but in my eyes, he understands etiquette better than too many, too many scholars. It’s just that he Xu Fengyen is just like Zhang Julu, he seeks for the gods of earth and grain, but he may not be willing to single-mindedly seek for the king. Zhang Julu for the world to set up a dragon door, perhaps not three hundred years, when the emperor sitting in the dragon chair will not have to pay attention to the origin, plus Xu Fengnian invisible push, the deeper the court suppression of the northern Liang, the more the Xu family success, the trend will even shorten a hundred years or even two hundred years, I this Diffractive Sheng Gong where what a saint, can not see Huang Longshi see so far, can only do their best to do a good job of the eyelids! I can only try my best to do a good job on the things under my nose. A lot of sages, the original intention is very good, do not hesitate to die for the future out of a new road, but unfortunately, the descendants may not be grateful for this ah, the more the road can go underfoot, but the more to think of trickery, when the hundred schools of thought, the people’s wisdom opened up, and so the Taoist sages of the rule of inaction, completely reduced to empty talk, the king dreamed of the rule of the hanging arch, it is a luxury, and maybe one day in the future, I am also in Confucianism, this is also in a deep dilemma! …… As the king of a country, the first emperor has actually been wise enough, but unfortunately met Xu Snapdragon and Zhang Julu ……”
The middle-aged man did not continue, some emotion: “I’m just a handless reader, ruling the country is far worse than Zhang Julu, planning the country is far worse than Yuan Benxi, guarding the country is far worse than Xu Fengnian, messing up the country is far worse than Xie Guanying, vision is even far worse than Huang Longshi. But I have one thing that they can’t do, or to be precise, that they are unwilling to do, and that is to abide by their duty. The reason why I purposely asked His Majesty to bring Song Ke Li with him today is very simple, it’s because I like that name of his, and I also thought that that Chen Wang, who His Majesty has high hopes for, would be able to understand the bitterness of it.”
Zhao Zhuan turned his head to look at this Zhang family scholar who could not leave his house all year round, and suddenly thought of a famous public case of the three religions, when the contemporary Duke of Diffractive Sage was young, there was a Southern Sect monk in his house who traveled a long way, and there were other guests in the mansion who asked three questions one after the other, kill one person and save a hundred, monk, do you kill? Kill one person to save a hundred people, monk, do you kill it? If you kill ten thousand people to save a million people, will you kill them? The monk was silent, I do not know is speechless, or have an answer but difficult to speak. It is said that the young man who had not yet hereditary succession to the Diffractive Sage Duke rose up and became furious, rebuking the monk is simply obsessed with their own Buddha and do not dare to kill to save all beings, is that “bullshit monk”!
The middle-aged man suddenly said, “In addition to promising His Majesty that I will go to Guangling Road to deal with Cao Changqing, who has turned into an overbearing monk, I also want to tell His Majesty something.”
Zhao Zhuan nodded and said, “Diffractive Sage Gong please speak.”
“The Northern Liang Iron Riders can be in.”
After a slight pause, the middle-aged man said in a deep voice, “But Xu Fengnian must die. This is especially true when Bei Liang in case of a great victory over Beimang!”
Zhao Zhuan gave an expressionless hmmm.
The middle-aged Confucian took the lead and turned towards the door of the room and pushed it out, after crossing the threshold, the sun was in the middle of the sky, he looked high into the sky, raised his hand to shield his eyes from the blinding sunlight, and murmured softly, “So it’s a bullshit saint.”
Chen Wang walked alone in the palace, stopped, pulled out that small piece of the more long lasting fragrance of the heather, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed, raised his head to look into the distance, and gently fed.
There is no wind or rain in Tai’an City, where are you?
