Chapter 366: The Hearts Wishes: Harmony in the World (Part 2)
"Everyone can be like Yao and Shun... This is the Taoist tradition. Wenren, Mr. Ning, has the idea of great unity... but it is also somewhat dangerous..."
What Ji Kun said after a slight pause in the room also made Wenren Buer roughly aware of everyone's attitude towards Ning Yi.
Naturally, there were various considerations involved in the things that Ning Yi and Liu Dabiao worked on at the Batao Camp. Wenren Buer collected all the information and sent it to Bianliang after the city was broken, because after investigation, he knew that
Although Liu Xigua seems to be reckless, he is actually a very smart person. It would not be easy for even Ning Yi to deceive her.
He didn't pay attention to the profound meaning of the things Ning Yi made. He originally believed that the teacher or the people around the teacher would see the clues to the whole situation, but he never thought about it.
What attracted the teacher's attention was not the poems Ning Yi wrote to Liu Dabiao, or the records of his various behaviors and words in the Ba Dao camp, but that although he was the leader, most of the things on the table were not from
The writing of his hand.
In the Ba Dao camp, Ning Yi collected a large number of literati who were living in panic after the fall, gave them the task of writing articles, and then asked them to exchange articles for food. This move later retained a large number of literati, and even
Their families survived as a result. However, even with a discerning eye, the articles reported by these people were of really low quality. In his opinion, a great writer like Ning Yi naturally knew this well.
I collected those articles in batches, and even if I sometimes scolded people and refused to distribute food, it was really because these guys had gone too far.
Most of the Hangzhou literati at that time felt that Ning Yi was helping the emperor to do evil and becoming a lackey in the Ba Dao camp. But from the perspective of Wenren Buer, Ning Yi could be said to endure humiliation and bear the burden, and still protected him even when it was not easy to protect himself.
There are so many people who are really like saints. On the other hand, these guys are also talented in literature, but writing an article is just half-hearted. Liu Xigua is not an idiot. If he is blamed, the pressure will naturally be on Ning Yi.
If possible, Wenren Fujian prefers to let these people recognize Ning Yi's life-saving grace after the city is broken, but then everything still has to be hidden in the darkness and it is difficult to explain clearly. As for the articles written by these scholars
, it’s not really a secret. When they wrote it, Ning Yi sent it to the school in Ba Dao Camp and asked the students to read it, read it and even point out what was wrong. Many copies were copied. Although the conclusions of these articles were
It deviates slightly from today's mainstream thinking, but the intention is still based on the teachings of Confucius and Mencius. It is not a reactionary text. Wenren Buer accepted it and sent it and received it just casually. But here, it made Qin Siyuan pay more attention to it.
"The people are noble, the country is second, the king is light... Everyone can be Yao and Shun, or use nine. Seeing a group of dragons without a leader is auspicious... These things may just be placed on the side of the rebels to complain. But if you think about it carefully, it is
It's amazing." Yaozu said in his year, "The ancient sages and sages governed the world with virtue, but what is governance by virtue? The sages taught all the people, and all the people followed their teachings. They did not close their homes at night if they did not pick up things on the road. Nowadays, the laws are complicated, and the world's ways are getting worse.
What Lu Jifang and others did failed simply because the villagers were not educated. But how to educate and how to make education effective is actually the real difficulty..."
"Nian Gong means..." Wenren Buer thought for a moment and looked at the articles on the table, "Are these useful?"
"Dong Weng and I think that it may be really useful in a small area." Yao Zunian nodded, "As for whether it can be useful in the whole world, how can we see that it is something that even a sage cannot do...
Of course, these articles are a bit too childish... but the direction may not be wrong. He has done many things in the Ba Dao Camp. Those who seemed to be childish in selecting talents, but allowed the top management to cheat, and even deliberately wanted to
To arouse public outrage, the important thing is not to really elect talented people, but to let people understand that if you want something in a circle, you must first reach out and get it, otherwise you will definitely not get anything. Such self-awareness is the most rare thing
…”
He paused: "And if it's just these little things, it can only prove that Mr. Ning is good at manipulating people's hearts. He has demonstrated this ability vividly before. And only these articles in front of him prove that he
What I want to touch is not just the human heart. People who listen to people and can take things into consideration are worthy enough to sit down and discuss Taoism with anyone. Because only these things can pass on the Taoism. This is already human nature, and
It’s not just people’s hearts. On the surface, the things that Mr. Ning did in the Ba Dao camp are a bit childish, but these interlocking things are definitely not something that a person can think of in a year or two.
Let’s be clear...this Mr. Ning is a member of my generation."
Wen Renfuer hesitated for a moment: "But... we also talked about it along the way, and he seemed a little disapproving of this..."
"Dong Weng said the same thing." Yao Zunian laughed, "Back in Jiangning, it was said that Mr. Ning was a bit lazy in temperament and disdainful of Confucianism, but now I think I misjudged him. I understand.
The more we learn, the more we realize that the journey is difficult, especially the idea of great unity, which is not easy. Since ancient times, we have been enthusiastic at first, but then became discouraged when we saw the world, and there are countless people who retreat to the mountains and forests. The same is true for my master Hushan Gong back then.
, the officialdom was strife and the world was mediocre. After he resigned, he went into seclusion and stopped paying attention to worldly affairs."
"It is said that Mr. Ning was dull when he was young and had no outstanding qualities. Later, when he reached adulthood, he suddenly married into a merchant's family as his son-in-law. I heard that if he hadn't been in a state of mind, who would make this choice?"
Wenren Fujiu touched his nose: "Well, I was also curious about this..."
"After he got married, his temperament became more relaxed and free, and he obviously let go of what was in his heart. But after that, he either said he didn't understand or showed disdain about Confucian and Taoist matters, and wanted to draw a clear line. Wen
It is said that the Ning family used to have poetry and calligraphy. He studied since childhood and was still a Confucian scholar until he got married. However, when he got married, he suddenly said that he had nothing to do with his status as a Confucian scholar. Although he claimed to have amnesia, he was a Confucian scholar.
A person has been studying for more than ten years and has been accompanying the Four Books and Five Classics almost since he was a child. How can he suddenly throw them away? Now that everyone in the world reads Confucius and Mencius, why should he express his position so clearly? "
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wenren nodded: "...Is he pretending?"
"He won't admit it personally, and we don't need to ask the truth even if we think about it. But I have seen people who have lost their memory. It means that someone who was dull before suddenly became enlightened. This situation also happens. But even if it does,
There are traces to follow before and after. It is really strange that Mr. Ning suddenly became enlightened and picked up poems at his fingertips, but he also expressed that he was not familiar with Confucianism. He behaved like two completely different people before and after.
. Rather than saying it is enlightenment, it is more like having figured out something and suddenly it became clear. We are not familiar with it yet, so we can only think like this."
"If getting married is like becoming a monk for him, it is indeed possible." Wenren Buer frowned and thought for a moment, nodded, and looked at the people around him, "Kuan Ning Liheng acts, and he does everything under the influence.
, it is true that only those who let go can do it. When Nian Gong said this, it is really possible that when he chose to marry into his wife, he actually let go of the things that originally bothered him, and then he began to see the world again, but only for the original
Those things that bothered him would no longer touch him. If they hadn't fallen in Hangzhou..."
"If he hadn't landed in Hangzhou, I don't think he would have taken these out again." Yao Zunian continued with a smile, "We will look at his poems. He wrote several of his own free and easy poems, which are easy to pick up, but he himself is not familiar with poems.
But I don't respect him very much. When it comes to the few poems written to Liu Xigua, some are grand, some are lingering and graceful, but they are still classics. If the facts are not in front of me, I will never believe it. A person can write easily.
It can only be said that he is a genius who has written so many things. Because he writes so well, he doesn't care about it. Perhaps it is also because of this that what he has been thinking about since he was a child can only be more troublesome. In addition to the idea of great unity,
What else can make such a person behave dull all day long?"
"It's just a pity that he didn't have a knowledgeable teacher beside him, so he missed the best time, which made him fall into the trap. The older he gets, the more he realizes that the world is difficult. Maybe he doesn't think clearly, so he chose to marry into the family.
, and then became another person due to amnesia..."
Yao Zunian's sighing words formed a conjecture about Ning Yi. To be honest, it is a bit shocking that a young man in his twenties would think about Taoism and give up everything. However, what Ning Yi said
The poems and essays they wrote were placed in front of them, and the things they did were far beyond the experience of their peers. On the contrary, it made people feel that this thing might really be possible.
There is no shortage of geniuses in the capital, and there are always people who have seen the geniuses among geniuses. Except for Ji Kun and Wen Renfuer, the other three people sitting here have been called the most talented people in the world. Ning Yi
Being able to outline things related to "Datong", even though it is shocking, can still be understood after all. Therefore, even Cheng Zhouhai, who has always been somewhat cynical, seems quite curious about Ning Liheng.
.
The rain outside the window was falling, and it was getting late in the evening. Everyone was chatting and waiting for Qin Siyuan to come back. However, not long after, a housekeeper came over and said that the master already knew about Wenren's arrival, but he had something to do and would have to be later.
Come back and let everyone eat first.
Qin Siyuan went to the Ministry of Revenue for business that afternoon. He was supposed to come back at this time. At this time, the room was filled with some of his closest staff. At this time, monk Jueming smiled and said, "Is it possible that he was dragged there by Tang Qinsou?"
Banquet?"
The housekeeper was familiar with everyone, and said with a smile: "I heard from the people who came to report that they were going to Xiaozhufang."
When he said this, everyone was a little stunned. Nowadays, the three most famous brothels in Bianliang are Fanlou, Tingyanju, and Xiaozhufang. Qin Siyuan was naturally a romantic scholar in the past.
It is of course impossible to say that there are no girls from brothels, but it has not happened to him for a long time. If it is not an important event such as a grand cultural gathering, the prime minister of a country may not be in a brothel anymore.
After hesitating, Yaozu asked in a young voice: "Who is treating us?"
The steward said: "It seems that Young Master Sixteen is over there."
"Oh, I understand." Yao Zunian understood and couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
*******************
It is raining, and the sky is getting darker earlier than usual. As one of the three buildings in the capital, the Little Candle House is dimly lit with lights, like the light gradually rising on the water in the blue-gray sea.
Located in the center of Bianliang City, but not a prosperous street, Xiaozhufang occupies a large area. Several gardens nearby are owned by brothels. It is a good place for everyone to relax during weekdays. The most high-end ones in Bianliang
Most brothels are like this. They can be lively or quiet, elegant or vulgar. After all, people who come to such places spend money just to vent their anger.
At this time, it was approaching evening, and there were one or two cultural gatherings held in the courtyard of the square. People who occasionally came in and out of the brothel door were either richly dressed, or wearing feather fans and silk towels, and were held by the accompanying boys or maids holding umbrellas.
Occasionally they would greet each other, and most of them showed good self-cultivation. No matter whether they were beasts inside, most of them would dress well when they went out.
A carriage was parked quietly on the street outside Xiaozhufang. Under the rain, the driver was sitting as straight as a pine tree. Although he was soaked by the heavy rain, he remained motionless and stared at the activities around him.
The curtain was hung thickly, and there were several servants around. One of them had already entered the brothel gate after listening to the instructions. There were many powerful people in the capital, and the pomp of this carriage was not very grand. At this time, it stopped in the rain and fell.
It didn't attract too much attention, but when the beautiful madam at the door came to greet and inquire based on the principle of not ignoring anyone, she was waved away.
In Xiaozhufang, the courtyards and buildings are relatively harmonious. They can talk about poems and essays, sit and talk about Taoism, or listen to talented women singing and talk to them about their recent worries. But today, across the rain curtain, among them
In the largest and most splendid courtyard, the scenery displayed at this time is a bit absurd.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In the light, a voice laughed wildly and shouted, which seemed to be outstanding.
"...Small cock~~~Small~cock~~~Beauty! My little~cock is gone...Look if it's in your skirt, hahahahahaha...Where do you want to run?
Go, you must have hidden my penis..."
Amidst this wanton noise, a young man in messy Chinese attire with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks was running wildly in the hall, forcing a number of brothel girls to run in exclamation, and some were thrown to the ground before they could run.
, at the moment, some indescribable things can only happen halfway.
Among the several major brothels in the capital, Xiaozhufang is considered to be one of the most famous. It usually does not show itself to others as vulgar. And even prostitutes who entertain people with sex are in this ridiculous environment at this time, and many women have somewhat disfigured faces.
There were still expressions of embarrassment and embarrassment, but no one really dared to show resistance to the wanton young master.
In addition to the young man shouting "little cock" and the woman being chased, there are naturally other young men in the courtyard hall at this moment. They either hold the woman next to them under their bodies, or they are with a few other young men.
The women do some ridiculous activities, and most of them blend into this ridiculous atmosphere.
At this time, on one side of the room, a young man in his early twenties was hugging the woman next to him and trying to enjoy herself. A wretched-looking man next to him turned his head: "Hey, look, look...every time
The most fun thing is that Huahua is too old. Haha, how about it, Brother Shao Yu, brother, I didn’t introduce you to the wrong person. I will introduce you to you when you are free..."
While he was talking, the mean-spirited man in the room, known as Huahua Taisui, had laughed and tore open the skirt of the woman. The woman was usually a performer and rarely prostituted herself. At this time, she was so humiliated that she burst into tears.
Everyone around him laughed even louder. The man named Shao Yu smiled and nodded, but he was unwilling to leave the beautiful woman next to him. At this time, someone knocked on the door outside.
The door was knocked several times, and the man in the room who was tearing off his skirt turned back and pointed: "Don't open the door! Hahahaha... no one is allowed in! I'm looking for my penis. What should I do if it runs away when I open the door?"
——”
But then the door was still pushed open. The man suddenly turned his head alertly and glanced at the door several times. Then he jumped up and put his hands on his hips: "Lu——Qian! I told you not to open the door! Did you see that?
!Did you see it! Small penis! Now my small penis has escaped - who is this guy and what is his background! My father is Gao Qiu——"
He shouted there with his hands on his waist, and the woman behind him quickly pulled back her skirt and put it on, and at the same time tried to hide in the corner of the hall. At the door, a man with a knife wearing a Yuhouguanfu came in with his head lowered, and another man in black clothes
The servant bowed his hands to everyone. Before he came in, Qin Shaoyu was so excited that he let go of the woman beside him, then waved and stood up: "My family, my family..." trotted towards the door.
"Who are you from your family! Hey, who knows who he is? My father is Gao Qiu - tell me if I can offend you..."
"The nephew of the right prime minister..." Lu Qian walked over and whispered in his ear.
"Uh... Qin... Old Man Qin? My father seems to say that he is more powerful than Li Gang... Does that mean he can't be offended? Then forget it..."
He stood there with his hands on his hips in frustration. At the door, after Qin Shaoyu said a few words to his servant, he also turned around carefully to apologize, saying that he was going back immediately, and followed the servant to leave quickly. He waited until the people left.
After that, Huahua Taisui just pointed in that direction and cursed: "Courageless bandit! Don't ask him to come next time... Lu Qian, why don't you get out quickly! Close the door——"
Then he turned around, looked around, and ran towards the side of the hall with all his might: "Hey, beauty, where are you running to! What do you want to do? You want to hide my penis again, right?"
Isn’t that right? Haha, cry, cry…I just like the way you want to cry, hahahaha…cry louder…”
The ridiculous voice gradually became quieter, but the curtain of rain remained. A young man named Qin Shaoyu ran out of the main entrance of Xiaozhufang in a panic, without even holding an umbrella. He stood in front of the car curtain for a moment, and heard someone inside.
He said, "Come in." Then he dared to lift the curtain and go up.
There was a small table placed in the relatively spacious carriage. Sitting on both sides were Qin Siyuan and a junior master who was following him. There were piles of papers around him. Qin Siyuan, who had half-white hair, squinted his eyes and read one copy, frowning.
He wrote a few words on it and put it aside. Only then did Qin Shaoyu dare to call him timidly: "Uncle, uncle..."
"The fleet going north has arrived in Bianliang this afternoon."
Qin Siyuan glanced at him, knocked on the wall next to the carriage, and the carriage began to move. During the slight sway, the old man's tone was calm, not like a curse, but Qin Shaoyu was still panicking: "Uh, uncle, uncle, I, I...I
I thought it was raining heavily..." I didn't know how to defend myself for a while.
"I know." Qin Siyuan nodded, "Your famous brother has already arrived at home. If you see him tonight or tomorrow, you should be more respectful and ask for his help. As for that Ning Yi Ning, now
You should have already settled in Wenhui Building. I originally hoped that you could meet him as soon as possible. Knowing a useful person is a hundred times better than knowing those young men. If you can learn a little bit, it will be very helpful for you to do things in the future.
It’s a great benefit. It’s not too late now, so I’m on my way, and I’ll take you to meet him.”
Qin Shaoyu's body was shaken, and then he stammered: "How, how can I let you, uncle, go visit him? Uncle, yes, I was wrong, but with your status, how can you go and visit him first? I, I will
Go to Wenhui Building and find brother Ning Shi to admit his mistake, uncle..."
Qin Siyuan was busy with everything, but the discipline of his family was not enough after all. When Qin Shaoyu came to the capital, although he felt Qin Siyuan's majesty, he also felt the power of the Youxiang Mansion. In the past, Qin Siyuan met him and gave a few words.
After all, it was difficult to play any role. At this moment, Qin Shaoyu became frightened. He subconsciously felt that his uncle went to see Ning Yi because of him. He couldn't help but want to get out of the car and run to Wenhui Building first, but he was in Qin Siyuan.
After all, he didn't dare to run away in front of him, so Qin Siyuan showed a smile on his face and waved his hand.
"Okay, I have a sense of propriety and etiquette, but don't be too pretentious. This little friend, I am on the same level as him, and if you talk about what he has done, it is not an exaggeration for you to treat him as a teacher.
Yes, when we get to Wenhui Building later, you go in and invite him to sit in my car. I just treat him as passing by, that's all. You should have a better attitude towards the people around him. You can entertain him with all your heart these days. If you can
His favor will be your fate in the future."
Qin Shaoyu nodded quickly. Although he always felt that it was a bit bad for his uncle to meet Ning Liheng in the past, more importantly, he still felt that his uncle, who was the prime minister, took care of him. He had many things to do, but he really thought about his relatives.
After saying those words, the old man picked up another thing and looked at Qin Shaoyu chewing on this thought. After a while, the old man put down his notebook and before picking up another one, he said to him: "There should be as few people as possible like Gao Mu'en."
Associate with them."
Qin Shaoyu nodded quickly. The rain gradually subsided, and the lights in the city lit up one by one. The carriage drove through the crowd, turned around, and approached the brightly lit Wenhui Building...
