Chapter 1928: Jing and Wei are mixed, the original intention should be considered
Fei Qian returned to the back hall and sat down.
The birth and development of a habit must actually go through a stage of contempt, confrontation, then lying down, and finally the stage of being really fragrant, such as the simplest, sitting.
There are several benches in the back hall of Fei Qian, and he can sit in a slightly more relaxed posture to relax his legs. However, such a sitting posture is not accepted by the current mainstream, and is even considered impolite and informal.
.
The later generations' sitting method of sitting on a chair with the calves perpendicular to the ground is actually not native to China, but was introduced from outside, so it is also called "Sitting in a Husband".
In the beginning, the Chinese people rejected this kind of sitting posture. Only in the military, due to the conditions, there were Hu stools. Most noble families did not allow their children to sit like this, so the so-called people who sold stools and chairs in the Han Dynasty had to wash up and go to bed first.
.Fei Qian had a military rank on his head from the beginning, so he set up some benches and the like at home, so that no one would murmur when he sat there, wondering if someone had impeached or remonstrated earlier, so he had to be dignified, etiquette, and so on.
That's it.
It was not until after the Wuhu Dynasty that Hu people entered the court in large numbers, and then this kind of sitting posture was brought to the upper class. Then in the Tang Dynasty, it began to be spread among the people, but sitting upright was still used in formal occasions. Until
In the Song Dynasty, people could "sitting upright" in daily formal occasions, but during large-scale ceremonies such as sacrifices, people still used to sit upright.
After the Yuan Dynasty, there was basically no sitting upright.
Fei Qian didn't quite understand it at first. After all, from later generations, the sitting posture with vertical calves is obviously more in line with the human body and can provide better rest and comfort, but why didn't the Han Dynasty people like it?
Later, slowly, I came to understand.
Because it seems like a small sitting position, but it actually involves more things than Fei Qian originally imagined.
Chinese etiquette has been standardized since the earliest times. In this Zhou etiquette, there are corresponding etiquette for the standard of sitting posture, whether the buttocks are lowered or tightened, whether they are attached to the ankles or raised at a speed of five centimeters per second, so the sitting posture has been changed.
, then it is equivalent to changing all these social etiquette.
At the same time, the windows in the Han Dynasty were very low, and this was also the case until the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, this style was also common in Japan in later generations. With the change of sitting posture, while the chair increased the height of the body, the original windows were very low.
It’s awkward and must be changed.
And there is also a very obscure change, that is, human consumption of wood has increased a lot! In ancient times when China had no awareness of soil and water protection, the birth of chairs also led to the use of high-foot tables and fixed seats.
After it was laid down, there would be more space to place more furniture, and these furniture were all made of wood for a long time in ancient times. Then they were cut down all the way, and even the originally dense trees were densely packed together.
The high loess slopes of Guanzhong were directly chopped into bald heads.
So, do some people still think that it is just a chair?
The change of the imperial examination into the imperial examination also seems to be just a chair away, but in fact it involves a lot of people and things...
Fei Qian pondered for a moment, then picked up the ink block on the desk and began to grind it. At the same time, he was thinking about it. When the ink was almost ground, he thought about it as well. He picked up the pen and wrote:
"A certain person inherited the favor of the emperor and took charge of Xijing. He felt deeply responsible and knew that if he was suffering from serious illness, he should use palliatives. However, the source of the evil was huge. He was eager to commit evil, sink into trouble, and massacre good people. He should use the poison to get rid of the turbid qi...
』
"There is a saying in the book that if there is no party or party, the king's way is unrestrained. If there is no party or party, the king's way is mediocre. When you hold office, you should seek excellence and be respectful. If you indulge in the old ways, stick to the old ways and regard the government as your back,
If the law is not followed, where will the constitution be and what will happen to our country and our country? The crime cannot be forgiven!"
The last stroke is written, and the evil spirit is faintly revealed in the words.
After a slight pause, Fei Qian put down his pen, just as Pang Tong turned around from the corridor and entered the back hall to report: "Reporting to the lord, all the young men in the city have been arrested and brought to justice..."
Fei Qian nodded and pointed to the bench beside him.
Pang Tong also sat down, and then he gave his fat legs. Having said that, Pang Tong had greater needs for the comfort of the stool. After all, if the stool is small, it is easy to put the eggs on it, right? If you sit upright, it will be so heavy.
Wouldn't it be more difficult if the weight was on his ankles? But even so, Pang Tong still only sat on the bench at Fei Qian's side, which he didn't even have at home.
"How?" Fei Qian asked, "Did you find anything?"
Pang Tong raised his hands and said, "They are being interrogated separately... But it seems that the three assistants are not involved... However, the interrogation has not been completely completed, and there may be some omissions..."
Fei Qian and Pang Tong thought before that these guys were ready to jump up and cause trouble, but now it seems that this is not the case, of course, based on the current situation.
Fei Qian nodded slightly. In this way, even if there are people involved, there may be fewer people than originally expected. There must be some people involved in this incident. After all, the trouble must be instigated, and
Where these instigators come from, and whether they have any contacts with the noble families in Guanzhong, are naturally top priorities that need to be investigated.
Fei Qian deliberately left all the noble families in Chang'an in the front hall, in order to prevent these Guanzhong nobles from erasing their traces and doing some correspondence at this juncture. Of course, if he didn't even dare to hold this meeting,
Whether you are here to ask for a medical condition or a favor, whether you are really stupid or pretending to be crazy, there must be something wrong!
But at present, it seems that these guys are either really not deeply involved, or they are still gambling.
Which one it is, Fei Qian doesn't want to make a conclusion now.
Fei Qian sometimes felt that he seemed to be on the same path as Cao Cao. Except for those who were closely related to him, the people around him seemed to have some problems...
That’s why Boss Cao always keeps an eye on other people’s wives and wants to have more children by sleeping with other people’s wives and strengthen the family to control the court? This was relatively established in the Han Dynasty. After all, childbirth was a high-risk business in the Han Dynasty.
Things, and these other people's wives and so on, at least have rich practical experience, and their survival skills are better than that of a little girl.
But it is obvious that Cao Pi single-handedly erased the results of more than ten years of hard work by his father. He also created a very conspicuous demonstration template for many emperors in later generations. Before Cao Pi, his relatives deposed the emperor and returned to the deposed emperor, but he still had to
Support the Liu family, but after Cao Pi, he broke such rules, so Sima Yi followed suit, and at the same time, all the emperors in later generations stared at the powerful ministers, for fear that another Cao Pi and Sima Yi would come.
Fei Qian thought for a moment and said to Huang Xu, "Have you got all the water from each house?"
Huang Xu said that he had already collected them all.
Fei Qian turned to Pang Tong and said, "I'll ask Lao Shiyuan to invite these guys to tea... and by the way, show them this one..."
Fei Qian handed what he had just written to Pang Tong. Pang Tong looked up and down and understood what Fei Qian meant. He cupped his hands and said, "Sir, please sit down and I'll do it now!"
What happens when interests collide with morality?
Daode looked innocent. He was just about to tell the truth to the interests, and then he was grabbed by the interests. He lifted up his skirt and pushed it to the ground and rubbed it wildly. Daode could only cry bitterly and shout, "I protest.
I condemn, I seriously protest, I solemnly condemn..."
So, there still have to be rules.
And no one likes rules, especially rules that obviously restrict themselves.
Many people like to kidnap others morally, but do not like to be morally kidnapped by others. They also like others to queue up honestly, but when it is their turn, it is best to find a relationship to join the queue.
It's like the water coming out of the Kunming Pond in the Hao Pond...
When Pang Tong arrived at the front lobby with a group of servants, carrying large and small cans, Wei Duan, Du Ji and others were stunned and had no idea what Pang Tong was going to do.
Pang Tong chuckled: "My lord knows how hard you have worked, so we have specially prepared tea! Come here! Place them according to their surnames!"
After a while, there were two more jars in front of everyone, one big and one small. The jars also had last names on them, corresponding to the people.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, wondering what Pang Tong was up to.
Pang Tong was still smiling, but this laughter sounded a bit like schadenfreude, "Come here! Make tea for everyone!"
Another servant brought a lot of small clay stoves, small copper cauldrons, etc., and placed them in front of everyone. Then he scooped out a few spoons of water from the small jar, added them to the copper cauldron, and then covered them.
Then he gently fanned the charcoal and boiled water to make tea. The servants moved skillfully. Although there were suddenly many more utensils in the lobby, there was still no sense of chaos and chaos. Instead, it was neatly organized like a ritual...
Pang Tong looked left and right, smiling but silent.
Everyone didn't understand what was going on and didn't know what to say.
Because there was not much water, the tea was cooked in a while, and then a bowl was taken out and placed in front of everyone.
"Please drink!" Pang Tong signaled.
Everyone looked around and hesitantly picked up the tea bowl. To be honest, I haven't had any water to drink since I sat down in the morning. Naturally, I was thirsty. It was normal to see the tea soup. I also felt that Fei Qian wouldn't want to drink everyone.
He was poisoned on the spot and everyone drank it.
Anyway, if you really want to kill someone, there is no need to go to such trouble.
When Pang Tong saw that everyone was drinking, he laughed and asked: "How does it taste? These teas are all the same. Are they water? They are all water from Kunming Lake..."
"Good tea!"
"Good tea!"
There were comments among the crowd, whether they were perfunctory or sincere.
Pang Tong laughed twice more, then suddenly his smile faded and he said in a deep voice: "Change the cauldron and cook again!"
With question marks on their heads, everyone watched as the servants filed out holding the previous small copper cauldron, then came in holding a new small copper cauldron, placed it on the stove, and then opened the seals of their respective large jars...
…
Suddenly, a strange, special atmosphere filled the hall.
Pang Tong couldn't help but sniffed his nose, and then said: "Tea, it's still the same tea, water, it's still water from the Kunming Canal of each house..."
Seeing the servants spooning some water that was obviously different from the previous small pots into the small copper cauldron and cooking it, some people among the crowd suddenly understood something and began to become unable to sit still, twisting left and right, as if sitting
Same as on the needle rug.
Not long after, the second pot of tea was brewed, and the strange smell in the lobby became stronger and stronger.
Pang Tong couldn't help but slap his nose in front of him. Then he felt that it was useless and the smell was still the same, so he said angrily, "Everyone! Please drink!"
At this moment, some smart people have realized the seriousness of the problem, and suddenly beads of sweat are dripping from their heads, and they are hesitant and unwilling to take the tea bowl.
Du Ji was silent for a moment, then looked at the large and small jars placed in front of him, thought for a moment, reached out to pick up the tea bowl, smelled it, smiled, and started drinking.
Pang Tong glanced at Du Ji, nodded slightly, and then motioned to the others, "Please stop! Do you need someone to serve you?"
The rest of the people, some had earth-colored faces, some were sweating, some, like Du Ji, drank directly, and some were holding tea bowls, shivering but not daring to drink.
"Kunming Pool supplies water directly to Chang'an!" Pang Tong looked at it, and then snorted coldly, "Since the Qin Dynasty, there have been rules: open channels are for drinking, and underground channels are for disposal! The water in the small jar is the water from the open channels that enter your house.
! Inside the big jar, you can get it from the open channel at home! If you abide by the rules, why are you afraid of drinking it! Please! Drink! 』
Environmental management is difficult to say. After all, not everyone in the Han Dynasty understood the importance of the environment. If Fei Qian hadn't emphasized it over and over again in the army, even Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao would have assumed the so-called bathing generals.
Only with the title of Captain of Feces Control did some health regulations become a habit in the military.
As for the people, it is even more difficult.
After years of bad habits, is there any possibility that it can be changed? Doesn’t anyone know that there is a problem with discharging sewage and wastewater into open channels? They must know it, but why do they still do it? It’s convenient. Anyway, it is discharged at the outlet.
Then it has nothing to do with you, as long as your courtyard is clean, others are other people's business.
However, environmental governance is also very simple. When other people's things become your own personal pain, everything becomes simple. The previous reasons and delays have become the current pain...
"My lord has repeatedly issued orders that no waste or filthy matter shall be discharged into the open channels in Chang'an. All waste and polluted materials shall be transported to Beishan to fill the ravines!" Pang Tong said with a sneer, "So what? Haha, today's tea will be made from water from the open channels in your homes!"
Today's rules are the rules of the Ming Dynasty! If everyone has their own secrets and only wants to be clean in front of the door, and does not care about other people's dirty things, that will be the tea of the moment! Li Duwei..."
Pang Tong turned his head and said to Li Yuan with ill intentions: "If I remember correctly, Lieutenant Li's residence seems to be downstream of Wei Shenlu..." Of course not immediately, but just thinking about it is disgusting enough.
Already.
Li Yuan was stunned, then looked at the tea bowl in front of him, then turned to look at Wei Duan with a huff.
At the same time, not only Li Yuan, but also many people also looked at other people, because they knew that the water in their own nullahs came from the previous house...
Beads of sweat rolled down Wei Duan's forehead. He gritted his teeth secretly, then without looking at anyone else, he directly picked up the tea bowl and swallowed the tea soup in one gulp. Li Yuan's face looked better, and the flesh on his face twitched.
After two clicks, he withdrew his original angry gaze.
In fact, Fei Qian was somewhat conscientious and did not let these guys drink raw water, and also used tea powder to counteract the smell. Otherwise, would these guys have vomiting and diarrhea when they returned?
Even so, Wei Duan still felt sick in his heart, and then he gritted his teeth to hold back his tumbling stomach, and fell to the ground with a thud. Tears came at the drop of a hat, "My lord, my crime deserves death... I failed to share my lord's worries."
, and the discipline at home is not strict...ah...at home, the dog's hands are now disabled, it is...all the fault of the guilty minister..."
When Wei Duan was mentioned as being disabled, Wei Duan felt really distressed. His nose and tears suddenly mixed together, and his voice naturally became more sincere.
Pang Tong glanced at Wei Duan coldly, waved his hand, "Please go back to your seat first."
"My lord said before, one hour has passed, what can you do?" Pang Tong looked around and asked.
The place was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
"As expected, my lord!" Pang Tong took out the piece of paper written by Fei Qian from his sleeve, "Come here, please pass it on so that you can take a good look at it!"
The servant came forward respectfully, then unfolded the paper and displayed it in the hall for everyone to see.
"Think of the origin of food and drink, and first of all, the rules!" Pang Tong patted the table with an aggressive attitude, his face as heavy as water, "The Qin and Han Dynasties established the rules of Kunming Pool to correct their original intention, which is to drink cleanly! If everyone does not abide by the rules and only seeks their own convenience,
If the filth is mixed into the open channel, how can we drink it? The rules of examination are to seek talents, but now everyone in the world is selfish and the rivers and rivers are mixed, how can we drink it? The Lord worked hard to establish the imperial examination, just like the pickaxe pond is unbearable, Kunming is mixed, and the desires are mixed.
Open new water to bring life to you, moisten the court, and brighten the world! But what do you do?!"
"A certain person is just a talented person from Jingxiang. He is favored by the lord, so he is here." Pang Tong pointed to himself, and then pointed to everyone present, "However, if a certain person cannot drink water in Guanzhong, he will have a Jingxiang deer."
A ladle of water! All of you are from Guanzhong. If the Sanfu water smells bad, where are you going to drink it? Huh? Ah?!"
"Without partiality or party, the king's way is slutty, without party or party, the king's way is mediocre!" Pang Tong pointed at the words written by Fei Qian and shouted in a deep voice, "Everyone wants their own family to be clean, but they regard filth as obscenity! What's the harm?
Who? How can you be so pure? You can’t blame the people in Shandong, laugh at the people in Shanxi like pigs, and the people in Guanzhong like dogs!”
"I am willing to die for my lord's great cause, even if I die!" Li Yuan stood up and prostrated himself on the ground.
"I am willing to die in the service of my lord!"
"Dare you not do your best for your lord!"
Everyone followed and shouted slogans.
Pang Tong waited until everyone's chaotic voices had almost subsided before he said with disdain, "If I remember correctly, my lord ordered you to clean open channels, regulate water sources, revise laws and regulations, provide disaster relief and provide for the people, etc."
, you are all speaking concisely, just like now?"
Everyone was speechless.
Pang Tong sneered, "Words spoken are not as good as words engraved in the heart, and words engraved in the heart are not as good as actions... Since you all still have loyal words and a heart of benevolence and righteousness, you should put them into practice! Come! Send me pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
! Everyone, please write down here. What do you want to do? List it in detail! If you don’t mean what you say and go back on your words, what should you do? Write them down in detail... Hehe, if you are hungry and thirsty, there is a water vat here, just drink it! 』
