Zhao Bing was listening to Liu Fu's narration. To be honest, he was in a state of turmoil. Although the ancients feared the heaven and earth, they also said that they did not talk about ghosts and gods.
He can be called a master of Confucianism in the history of reading classics, but Zhao Bing has read a lot of natural things, and generally has reservations about ghosts and gods, or even sneers and categorically does not believe it. If his lies are exposed to his face, he will have to find someone.
What kind of reason can be used to cover up the past?
"God has mercy on you, there is hope for the revival of the Song Dynasty!" Liu Fu had just finished telling the story of His Highness's "meeting an immortal in a dream", and he bowed to heaven in order to comply with the strict regulations, and said with great excitement.
"Master Ying also thinks that this is God's will to entrust His Highness with the important task of reviving the Song Dynasty?" Liu Fu asked, seeing his excitement.
"The Taizu couldn't bear to see the foundation he created destroyed by the Tatars, so he used the chess game to guide His Highness to protect the country of the Song Dynasty. And the ancestor Chen Tuan is also an unparalleled master. It is said that he has achieved perfect results and is ranked among the immortals.
Moreover, he has the talent for governing the world, is proficient in the art of war and strategies, and has extraordinary skills. His Highness will be able to accomplish great things through his enlightenment." Ying Jieyan said.
"No way..." Zhao Bing shuddered and thought to himself. He didn't expect the ending to be so unexpected. He not only believed what the old man said, but also believed it deeply. He could make them explain even his nonsense.
It was so tight that he had no choice but to believe that there must be providence somewhere. It seemed that he could no longer complain to God casually in the future, lest he would be struck by lightning.
"Sir Ying, do you think this verse was left by our ancestors to provide guidance for His Highness?" Liu Fu was naturally very excited when he saw that Ying Jieyan believed in what he said.
"I think that's right." Ying Jieyan picked up the tea and drank it, as if he didn't even notice that the tea had already become cold.
"Alas, it's a pity that I have little talent and little knowledge, and I am late-minded and unable to understand the meaning of it, which makes His Highness fall into confusion. Sir Ying is a great talent in this world, can you clear up the confusion?" Liu Fu bowed his hands and bowed, asking for advice.
"Uncle Sheng is too modest. This verse contains a mystery. How can it be easily deciphered? It's very rare for you to understand its secret afterwards." Ying Jieyan returned the courtesy and said, "At present, the first two verses have been fulfilled. You should read it as soon as possible.
Understand the meaning of the last sentence, so as to plan for the future."
"Of course, what Master Ying said is absolutely true. It's just that the last sentence is more awkward and difficult to understand than the previous one. It's really hard for Uncle Sheng to understand. Please give me some trouble," Liu Fu added.
"That's fine, let's understand the deep meaning together, and maybe we can figure out the secrets from it." Ying Jieyan was no longer modest and evasive, and analyzed each word with Liu Fu, but the instigator Zhao Bing was left aside.
…
Looking at the two people who were seriously dreaming, Zhao Bing felt funny and confused at the same time. It was really sad that he had to resort to pretense to realize something he had planned for many days. And for senior officials like Liu Fu and Ying Jieyan who were in charge of national affairs.
Cadres and intellectuals also believe in ghosts and gods. He is also deeply uneasy and worries that it is not a good thing to form the habit of asking ghosts and gods when something happens. This will affect their judgment and make inappropriate decisions.
Zhao Bing's worries are understandable, but in fact he still made the mistake of subjectivism. He only knew one but not the other, and there is still a story in it. Ying Jiyan was talented and intelligent since he was a child. Rumor has it that it was because his mother was pregnant and he dreamed of a
The old man in the purple robe and jade belt rode down on the white dragonfly and gave birth to him when he woke up, so he was nicknamed Mengchen. This rumor made Ying Jieyan subconsciously have a fear of ghosts and gods since he was a child, and Zhao Bing gave him a surprise
It was too shocking and could no longer be explained by common sense. It could only be attributed to the fact that he had received enlightenment and help from gods and men, which caused Zhao Bing to misunderstand.
"I thought Guan Bao refers to Guan Zhong and Bao Shuya, but how should we explain the division of horses? Do you know the allusion?                                                                                                                                         "Guan Bao"
After pondering for a while, I still had no clue, so I asked Ying Jieyan who was deep in thought.
"What Uncle Sheng said is true. Guan Bao Ying refers to these two people. Their love for each other has become a good story. However, the allusion that the two separated their horses has not been recorded in history. Does it mean that they respectively assisted Young Master Bai and Young Master Jiu?"
Jie Yan expressed his opinion.
"Well, parting horses can also imply parting ways, so this explanation is appropriate." Liu Fu nodded, fully agreeing.
At this time, Zhao Bing could only listen, but he became a spectator, wanting to see what kind of explanation they could give to the two nonsense sentences he made. And Guan Bao's allusion to the acquaintance was his.
What I know is that when the two of them were doing business together, Guan Zhong contributed a small amount of money and divided the big share. He helped Bao Shuya with several ideas, but they were not helpful. Later, both of them became politicians and led troops on expeditions. During the war, the first thing Guan Zhong did was to run away.
.
Someone asked Bao Shuya, how could you be friends with such a thing? Bao Shuya said, Guan Zhong had an old mother in his family, and he stole money to serve her, and he ran away because he was afraid that no one would take care of her after he died. What was wrong with this? Guan Zhong
When he heard about it, he sighed: "My parents are the ones who gave birth to me, and Uncle Bao is the one who knows me." So people call this kind of close friends Guan Bao's acquaintance.
At that time, Duke Xiang, the king of Qi State, had no sons and only two half-brothers. One was Prince Jiu, whose mother was from the State of Lu; the other was Prince Xiaobai, whose mother was from the State of Wei. One day, Guan Zhong said to Bao Shuya: "According to me,
It seems that the person who will succeed to the throne in the future will be either Young Master Jiu or Young Master Xiaobai. You and I will each assist one." Bao Shuya agreed with Guan Zhong's idea and placed treasures on both of them. From then on, Guan Zhong became Young Master Jiu's teacher.
, Bao Shuya became Young Master Xiaobai’s teacher.
Duke Xiang of Qi was very cruel and fatuous, and the government was in chaos. In order to avoid disaster, the princes fled to other countries one after another to wait for opportunities. Guan Zhong assisted the prince Jiu who lived in the state of Lu, while Bao Shuya served another prince of the state of Qi, Xiaobai, in the state of Ju.
Later, civil strife broke out in the State of Qi, and the minister Gongsun Wuzhi killed Duke Xiang of Qi and took the throne. Within a month, Gongsun Wuzhi was killed by the ministers again. Some ministers of the State of Qi secretly sent envoys to the State of Ju to welcome the return of Prince Xiaobai.
The state of Qi ascended the throne.
When Duke Zhuang of Lu heard the news, he decided to personally lead 300 military chariots, with Cao Mo as the general, to escort Young Master Jiu back to Qi. He first asked Guan Zhong to lead some troops and horses to intercept Young Master Xiaobai on the road. He took thirty
A military chariot, traveling day and night, chased Young Master Bai. But after catching up, he found that there were many people on the other side. He was afraid that he would not be able to defeat him, so he used a delaying strategy. When he was walking back, he suddenly turned around and shot Young Master Bai with an arrow. Young Master Bai also had an imagination between life and death.
He was afraid that Guan Zhong would shoot another arrow, so he bit his tongue and pretended to vomit blood and died.
In the rush, everyone was also concealed by Xiaobai. It wasn't until Guan Zhong walked far away that he opened his eyes and sat up. Bao Shuya said, "We have to run quickly, maybe Guan Zhong will come back." So, Xiaobai, the young master, changed his mind.
clothes, sat in a covered car, and took a small road to Linzi, the capital of Qi. Guan Zhong thought he had a trick and thought Xiaobai must be dead, so he went back to report to Duke Zhuang of Lu. Duke Zhuang of Lu heard that Xiaobai was dead.
After celebrating, he took the young master Jiu and slowly and leisurely marched towards Qi State.
After several days, Duke Zhuang of Lu led his army to the border of Qi. When he heard that Prince Xiaobai was not dead and had become the king, he was furious and immediately attacked Qi. As a result, the Lu army was severely beaten.
Defeated, Duke Zhuang of Lu abandoned his chariot and ran away, only to save his life. After returning home from the defeat, the army of Qi came again and forced Duke Zhuang of Lu to kill Prince Jiu and hand over Guan Zhong. When Duke Zhuang of Lu saw it, the soldiers
He was under pressure and unwilling to risk the country's subjugation for a young master, so he accepted it all.
Guan Zhong really lost his wife and even gave him a ride, but when he entered the territory of Qi in a prison car, Bao Shuya had already been waiting there. He immediately let Guan Zhong out, and they returned to Linzi with him.
Guan Zhong arranged to stay in his own home. Then he went to persuade Duke Huan of Qi to give up his old suspicion and recommended Guan Zhong's talent to him. In the end, Guan Zhong deceived Duke Huan of Qi and took the position that belonged to Bao Shuya under his buttocks, and the two of them met again.
They co-acted in a great drama of elevating talents and giving way to others.
This is a good story that has been passed down through the ages, but Zhao Bing has never quite understood the relationship between the two. Didn't Bao Shuya have no family to take care of at that time? In fact, fear of death and greed for money is a common problem for everyone, so why did Guan Zhong become so remarkable?
What? Who doesn’t want to have a silly friend like Bao Shuya? I’ll take the credit, and you’ll take the blame. It’s okay not to have a weird friend like Guan Zhong. If there are such two people in modern society, it’s okay if they don’t fight to the death.
There is love and righteousness, and Guan Zhong will definitely be fleshed out and become an 'Internet celebrity'. What else is there to talk about as an eternal legend...
"I believe that the two immortal masters must be in charge of the affairs of Prince Bao and Prince Jiu, implying that His Highness left the imperial court to develop independently. Otherwise, how could the river flow by itself?" After pondering for a long time, the two agreed.
Yan said.
"Well, that should be the case. Does Jiang Duan mean that this matter must be decided by Mr. Jiang, or does it mean that the current situation is that the river is cut off and the situation is critical, so we should go with the flow?" Liu Fu nodded and agreed to the division of troops, but he was not sure.
He raised objections to his theory of "Jiang Duan".
"Oh, this...should also have this meaning. Look at the words "Meet Liu Hua Ming" in the previous sentence. Liu is the same as Liu. By chance, His Highness met Uncle Sheng on the boat, so he could escape the danger calmly later.
It's something." Ying Jieyan thought back to the previous sentence and explained, but it made the explanation that had just become clearer reach a deadlock again.
"Your Majesty's interpretation is not appropriate. At that time, everyone on board and off the ship were already terminally ill and in danger. They had to rely on His Highness to give medicine to survive. This interpretation is really far-fetched." Liu Fu was a humble gentleman, and of course he did not want to take credit, so he waved his hand.
"Uncle Sheng is too self-effacing. It was only with the help of Uncle Sheng that Your Highness was able to control the situation and gather people's hearts later. Even if there is a twist, it is not much different. At least it is the same as the love between Young Master Bai and Bao Shuya." Ying Jie Yan.
said.
"Aren't you both hungry? The sun has set in the west and the sky is full of stars!" Just as the two were arguing, His Highness sitting on one side suddenly interjected. The two turned to look at His Highness and then looked at each other, suddenly
