Section 42: Democracy Possessed by Ghosts and Gods
The freedom that the emperor gives to the people is to have a meal in his palace, and the name of this meal is a banquet. All the rights in the world are his, including your wife and children. Everything you have is not enough.
It was given to you by the emperor. He can make a person ascend to heaven, or he can make a person fall into the Nine Nether Hells.
"Your Majesty did not give me this concubine. You carried me in from the gate in a sedan chair. You are my god. Those four women in the backyard were given by your majesty." Xin Yue was very disgusted to hear the gift.
After these two words, he sat up straight and explained to Yun Ye word by word that he came in through the main door, not the concubine who carried him in through the side door.
"Cover the quilt, it's not too cold even if you're naked." Yun Ye complained and turned his back to Xin Yue. He felt that he was a little secretive. Thinking about how difficult it was to win democracy in later generations, it was
...Why don’t people today know how to fight for it?
After getting up, Yun Ye felt that it was his responsibility to spread democracy. Last night, he recalled what he had learned in the politics class at midnight. When he saw Lao Qian coming over, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your hard work, steward Qian." If you want democracy, you must first start with equality for everyone.
Start.
The old man's mouth was trembling so much that he howled and then stumbled to report the news to his wife. The Marquis was crazy...
The old slave who had never seen the world got used to it after he learned the benefits of democracy. At the Moon Gate, he saw Liu Jinbao waiting for him with a big cloak. When Liu Jinbao put the big cloak on himself, he turned around and said "thank you". Yun said
Ye thought that what he said was very sincere and kind, but Liu Jinbao's expression changed drastically, and he quickly knelt down and said that he would never dare to use the Marquis's cloak as a quilt again.
Now the fire is rising. It’s okay to use the marquis’s cloak as a quilt, but this bitch always washes his feet. Can he still wear this cloak? When he lifts his foot, he kicks it twice to relieve his hatred, remembering that he wants to spread the news.
He put his foot down again on the important task of democracy and forcefully squeezed out two words: "It doesn't matter"! Liu Jinbao became even more panicked.
After walking around the house and wishing all the old people New Year's greetings, I decided to have a meal, determined to get rid of the bad habit of opening my mouth before eating and holding my clothes in my hands. The maid Zijuan came over with a wooden plate. Yun Ye
He greeted me happily, intending to help carry the dishes and let the lady do the work. It was inappropriate for a grown man to sit by himself. It was not in line with the essence of democracy and must be changed.
Just asking for a plate, Zijuan's face suddenly turned red and her skirt was shaking. I don't know why she was shaking so hard that the porridge was spilled. At this time, a dry cough came from behind Zijuan. Zijuan quickly let go and covered her face.
Just ran out.
That's right, this is a sign of not adapting to democracy. It will be fine in the future. Yun Ye put the plate on the table, set the bowls and chopsticks himself, and started eating. Xin Yue, who was sitting opposite, didn't eat either.
He looked at Yun Ye slyly, and at dusk that day, Ling Ding also had the same look on his face, with a sad look on his face.
"Dirty things were brought into the house." This was Xin Yue's attribution after leaving the dining hall.
"My husband has been acting strange since last night. Mr. Qian, Mr. Qian, go to the nearest Huoling Temple to ask a Taoist priest to exorcise the ghosts. I'm afraid it's too late to ask Taoist Yuan." That day, Rimu and Lingdang nodded together and helped to call Lao Qian. He was energetic and energetic.
With a sad look on his face, Lao Qian rushed out like an arrow had been shot in his butt.
None of the women are good, but the two sons are better. They are eating at the big table with their father. The three girls now have their own embroidery rooms and cannot come out.
Yun Shou and Yun Huan eat exactly like their father. The father and son eat very generously. Eating steamed stuffed buns stuffed with chives in the winter is really a loss of life, so I won’t eat them. My two sons will eat more. I want unlimited food.
In line with the broad masses of the people, what is democracy? It starts with basic necessities, food, housing and transportation.
Yun Shou saw that his father always looked at the steamed buns on the plate and only drank porridge, so he took one and put it on his plate. The steamed buns tasted very good. The cook specially added eggs to them. There was no seasoning except salt.
There was nothing much to say except that it was fresh. Yun Ye took a big bite of the bun and said to his son with a smile: "Thank you."
The bun in Yun Shou's mouth fell to the ground, his eyes widened, and he called "Dad". This title is only used when the father and son are alone. Yun Huan stopped eating, and the two brothers looked at their father in a daze.
.
After dinner, the father and son were walking around in the yard. A group of Taoist priests rushed in and surrounded Yun Ye and began to recite incantations. From the accent, they were not invited by gods from all over the world. How come there were even gods from Shannan East Road?
It's just a curse. Why did you sprinkle water on me, Mr. Hou? It's still the kind of talisman water that is alive with paper ashes. No matter what Yun Ye said or did, those gods still poured water on him without mercy, and then started to curse.
After a few words, one of the guys, who looked more like a thieves than a Taoist priest, roared: "Hurry up and reveal yourself, the monster!"
Yun Ye was stunned by this sentence. This god was so powerful that it was a bit ridiculous. How did he know that I was a thousand-year-old ghost from the next generation? In a blink of an eye, a large bowl of dog blood was poured on his body.
Yun Ye, who had changed his clothes, was so angry that he was trembling. This must be done according to the family law. Xin Yue, the culprit, had five boards. That evening, Ling Dang had three boards per person. Old Qian looked at the wall and thought about his fault, and Liu Jinbao was directly beaten with a military stick.
"What's going on? Who said I'm possessed by a ghost, sir!" Yun Ye smelled his body and washed it three times but still couldn't get rid of the smell of dog blood.
Xin Yue rubbed her butt and said aggrievedly: "You have been acting wrong since last night. You also said that I was a gift from His Majesty. This morning you gave me a gift to the old man. You thanked Liu Jinbao for helping you get dressed. In the end, you forgave him for leaving you."
Your big cloak is used as a quilt cover. You don’t even look at that Zijuan girl on weekdays, but you actually went to tease her today. Also, Shou’er put the buns for you. You also thank him for coming. This is different from what you usually do.
The method here is different, so I thought you were possessed by a ghost and didn’t dare to tell grandma.”
Yun Ye didn't know what to say, so he could only let out a long sigh. Democracy would not work in the Tang Dynasty! All heretics are possessed by ghosts. This is the simplest understanding of the Tang people. They think that what they have now is already
It was the best. There was no need to change and it could not be changed. Yun Ye did not dare to imagine what would happen to the radical thinkers of later generations who came to the Tang Dynasty.
The Marquis returned to normal. Xin Yue, at dusk that day, Lingdang thought that the blow he received was well worth it. When Lao Qian was thinking about it, he learned that the Marquis was safe. He burst into tears. Liu Jinbao lay on the bed and heard
After this news, she immediately got up to serve the Marquis. Only Zijuan was more sad. Perhaps she was the only one who hoped that the Marquis would continue to be crazy.
Xiao Wu was laughing so hard in the study that he almost died. Seeing his master's dark face, he managed to hold it back. Just as he was about to speak, he immediately rolled from his chair to the floor with laughter.
"Master, the Li family is inviting people to buy people's hearts. What kind of people's hearts are you inviting to buy? The people in this house don't need your invitation to buy them. Their hearts, livers, spleens, lungs and kidneys all belong to the Yun family. People from the Li family can sell others'.
Heart, my disciple dares to say that it is impossible for him to buy anyone in this house. No one will sell his home. Just look at Xiaomiao and you will know. They have all been kicked out by the tongueless old man. You are not a Baba even if you say hello.
is back?
This is a heroic man. Ancient drama Meng Ye doesn't have Xiaomiao's skills. Logically speaking, such a person should wander around all his life, doing chivalry and righteousness everywhere. Only by gaining a reputation as a university can he live his life in vain. But now he is hiding at home obediently.
Embroidery, which never leaves home, is always ready to wait for you to find a husband for her to marry.
According to my disciple's opinion, your methods are much smarter than those of the royal family. They treat everyone in the world as guests, and you treat everyone as your own family. Guests may help the master's family, but your own family members are different.
Well, if a disaster strikes, there is no other choice but to work together to fight a bloody path.
You see, the Li family's preference for one thing and another will cause big problems sooner or later. Things in this world are nothing more than balance and checks. If you blindly favor the nobles, the common people will rebel. If you blindly favor the common people, the interests of the nobles will be violated. The royal family needs
What we need to do is to find a balance between these two points, so that the nobles and the people can restrain each other and depend on each other, so that they can get the maximum benefit. It is the best way to let them fight each other without breaking their faces.
The current royal family is a bit eager for quick success. They blindly suppress the nobles and elevate the status of the common people. Sooner or later, another class will appear that can compete with them for power and profit, and it will not be diverted by human will.
You have said before that the most stable shape is the equilateral triangle. The more I think about it, the more it makes sense. Perhaps it is time for another class to emerge? Are you doing a test for a new situation in the future? You have already
Did you expect that a new sprout would be born?" Xiao Wu's eyes widened and he looked at Yun Ye with admiration.
Xiao Wu was able to analyze so many things from Yun Ye's crazy actions, but Yun Ye was even more surprised than she was. After social materials are greatly enriched, people will naturally demand more rights. This has long been proven by world history.
Yes, maybe those village elders still don’t understand what happened. They don’t know what it means to sit in the Wanmin Palace to eat. They don’t know that it is their own strength that prompted them to sit in the Wanmin Palace to eat and enjoy the singing and dancing. They are still simple.
He regarded this move as a gift, but he didn't know that there is no free lunch in the world. Eating free lunch requires strength. Li Er was the first person to discover this new power. He was affirming the legitimacy of the existence of this power, and even encouraged it.
.And now, Xiao Wu also discovered...
Yun Ye touched Xiao Wu's head and said: "Xiao Wu, your only shortcoming is that you are too smart. A girl who is too smart is not a blessing. Since ancient times, beauties have a bad fate. This sentence has a reason for its existence. You are very unfortunate.
Living in such a world, there is no way for him to provide you with a stage to display your talents. Listen to Master’s words and it is better to hide your humility than to show off your ugliness.”
"Is it the same as what you are doing now?"
"That's right, we, the master and the apprentice, stood aside and watched the clouds rise and fall, the buildings rising and the buildings collapsing. Those who liked them would give them a hand, and those who didn't like them would put their hands in their sleeves and watch the jokes.
, enjoy your life to the fullest."
"Master, is this Bai Yujing?"
"Maybe!" Yun Ye replied casually, spread out a piece of paper and drew a big turtle on it.
