Qing Yi, who hurriedly walked out of Sanli Academy, was still flustered. It took a lot of courage for her to challenge a great scholar in front of such a stranger just now, and she also used a lot of strength not to show her timidity. You must know that since she went down the mountain
Have you ever acted like this alone?
She grew up in the mountains and knew nothing about the world, but she was neither stupid nor stupid. During the time she followed Chang Yu, she heard and learned a lot from the people around him. Today, she was ordered to deliver tea, and after leaving the palace, she searched for someone.
When I asked about the location of Sanli Academy, I even inquired about Fu Qingshan. Everyone in Taiyuan City who didn't know Fu Qingshan's name would give him a thumbs-up compliment, saying he was a great scholar in the world.
Don't ask if you don't know. If you ask, you will be startled. If you don't know anything, just go in and say what you should say and what should be beaten. You won't be so nervous. But the shadow of a person's famous tree, Fu Shan's reputation is too great, and his proficiency
Qing Yi was still in his prime (37 years old) in terms of martial arts, so he was worried that he would not be able to defeat her, so he became increasingly nervous.
Even Chang Yu's previous warning about being invincible and using skill to offload strength was forgotten. Fortunately, she has high martial arts skills. In addition, these days, many masters around Chang Yu take turns giving her moves, which greatly increases her actual combat experience.
, and Wang Zhengnan and the Chen family brothers are masters of the internal family, and they also taught her how to use internal power, so it is not that she cannot use internal power as Fu Shan said, but she is not good at it, but it is enough to defeat him.
However, Qing Yi always felt that he was lucky. If he hadn't been so nervous at that time, he could have defeated Fu Shan faster. Maybe it would have been easier as the shopkeeper said. Qing Yi was a little annoyed and slapped his head hard. Why did he forget it when he was nervous?
Well, by the way, Master Su Jing also said that the only martial arts in the world that can't be broken is fast... If at that time...
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Qing Yi was thinking about something while jogging towards Prince Jin's Mansion with his head down. Suddenly he was hit by someone and almost fell to the ground. He was about to argue a few words, but he didn't know that the person who bumped into him hurriedly came towards him.
Running not far away, Qing Yi realized that there were many people nearby running in that direction. Curious in his heart, he grabbed one of them and asked, "What happened over there?"
"Hey, I heard that the government caught a thief and beheaded him at the Drum Tower?"
"Ah, what did this thief commit? He wants to be beheaded?" Qing Yi muttered, and the man said: "I heard that he was a thief who assassinated the Minister of War..." After saying that, he ran away in a hurry. Qing Yi was startled.
Assassination of the Minister of War? Now that he naturally knew Shi Kefa's identity, he followed the flow of people to see what happened.
The drum tower was crowded with people. It took a lot of effort for Qing Yi to squeeze in. He saw a big wooden cage under the drum tower. Inside was a strong man with unkempt hair and bloodstains all over his body. He couldn't see his appearance or his face clearly.
He was shivering with cold inside, and the people watching were talking about it: "This thief is so bold, he actually assassinated the Minister of War..."
"They are going to be beheaded, these thieves really deserve to die..."
"It shouldn't be a decapitation. The decapitation will not be placed in a cage. It is to freeze him to death. Hey, he can die in one night on this cold day..."
Qing Yi looked carefully. The cage was made of wood as thick as a bowl and bound with large iron nails. It weighed several hundred kilograms. It was also locked with an iron chain on the horse-tack next to it. Not to mention that the man was injured.
A healthy person will not run with so much strength if no one is watching him.
Qing Yi knew this man even if he couldn't see his face. He was naturally the thief captured in the sneak attack that night. She had treated his injuries and helped him change his medicine at noon today. She didn't expect that he would be killed right now.
, she felt a little awkward in her heart. After all, she had just entered the world, and she didn't make much distinction between good and evil in her heart. In other words, from her point of view, everything was good and evil, and each had its own master.
"Just watch from a distance. Don't get so close. This thief is so vicious that he can hurt others even if he is injured." Some officers and soldiers were maintaining order, and the onlookers booed and asked, "Master, when will this thief be beheaded?"
"If he doesn't freeze to death tonight, I'll behead him before noon tomorrow. If he freezes to death, that's all."
It's such a cold day, let alone until noon tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay up until the middle of the night. Qing Yi sighed and looked at the person in the wooden cage again, turned around and squeezed out of the crowd to go back to the palace.
Chang Yu was having dinner in the other courtyard. When he saw Qing Yi coming back, he invited her to come with him. Qing Yi still knew the rules. He shook his head and refused. Chang Yu didn't force her and asked, "Has the tea been delivered?"
"Delivered".
"Have you recited scriptures to him?"
Qing Yi shook his head.
Oh, Chang Yu glanced at her: "Is that a fight?"
"beated"
"Then what?"
"Then...he wanted to make Pindao his teacher, and then asked Pindao to be his teacher. He said it was the shopkeeper's wish, but Pindao was confused." Qing Yi frowned: "Does the shopkeeper really want Pindao to be his teacher?
?”
Chang Yu was stunned, then looked at Zhu Cihong and said, "What am I talking about? Master Fu Qing is very narcissistic."
It is true that Master Fu Qing is a Taoist and has a deep understanding of Taoist theory, but Chang Yu really has no intention of letting him teach Qing Yi’s internal strength. The reason is very simple. Although Master Fu Qing is knowledgeable and talented, he is really not outstanding in martial arts. Even if he has some research on internal strength,
Comparable to Jiang Fa, Chen Wangting, Li Muchian, Wang Zhengnan and others, you must know that these are the most famous internal boxing masters in the world!
If Chang Yu wanted someone to point out Qing Yi's inner strength, why would he bother asking him for half-hearted advice?
Qing Yi understood and immediately laughed: "Pindao thought the shopkeeper was going to drive me away."
"The governor said that you will be of great use in the future, so how can I drive you away? By the way, Master Fu Qing didn't reply or anything?"
"I'm back, I'm back." Qing Yi thought for a moment: "He said that the journey of the great road is to select the virtuous and capable for the public."
What the hell? Chang Yu was startled. Zhu Cixiang next to him chuckled and said: "I know this. It comes from the Western Han Dynasty. Dai Sheng's "Book of Rites" is about the journey of the great road. The world is for the public, and the virtuous and capable are selected... when it comes to the implementation of the great road.
, the world is shared by the common people, select talented and capable people with high moral character... He means that now you say it is time to walk on the road, it can be regarded as praising your military achievements. The world is for the public, and it is to respond to your public service.
He has lived through the ages, and then he gives himself a little credit, saying that he is a selected person with high moral character and talent...He just picked the first three sentences of this very long paragraph, but this person is very narcissistic!"
Chang Yu scratched his head: "So you agreed to me?"
Zhu Cixiang nodded and patted his shoulder: "Read more if you have nothing to do. Jianghu is not just about fighting and killing." Chang Yu curled his lips: "Jianghu is indeed not about fighting and killing, but Jiangshan is indispensable for fighting. Otherwise, it would have been long ago
The owner has changed." Zhu Cixiang blushed. He wanted to take the opportunity to tease him, but was turned against the general. In order to avoid further embarrassment, he quickly changed the topic: "Fu Shan also runs a college in Taiyuan. It will be the same if you get him to the capital.
What’s the difference in setting up a school? Why bother going to great lengths? Isn’t it the same to leave it in Taiyuan to contribute?”
"You don't understand this." Chang Yu shook his head and rattled: "His school is very different from mine. They are so different. Although their so-called great scholars have high vision, their structure is too small. The school I want to run is for everyone in the world."
In the school, everyone in the world can read, learn calligraphy, learn knowledge, and learn useful skills and knowledge. It is not just the Four Books and Five Classics, but it is not a bunch of sour scholars who close the door and write books and praise each other. Moreover, Fu Shan has talents, so he should make the best use of them to teach.
Educate people and cultivate more talents. At the same time, I also have the intention to assimilate them. Let them go to the capital to experience the new style schools, which will subtly change some of their old ideas and open up new world views and values, so that they can assimilate other people. In this way
Then there will be more people working hard for new education..."
"Uh... what level, what level?" Zhu Cixiang was confused. Chang Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Let's put it this way, is His Highness's state of mind before he met me the same as it is now?"
"What a big difference!" Zhu Cixiang said exaggeratedly: "At that time, I was really a frog in the well. After I met you, I had a different view on all kinds of people and things... How should I put it, it was a feeling of sudden enlightenment...
"
"The state of mind and vision are different, this is a new world view." Chang Yu smiled faintly, and Kun Xing, who had been listening silently, tilted his head and looked at him: "Then where did your world view come from, and how did you develop it?
"
Hmm... Chang Yu lowered his head and thought for a moment: "I learned this after seeing four hundred years of wind and rain."
"Hey, let me tell you." Zhu Cixiang's eyes lit up: "Honestly, have you lived for more than four hundred years?"
Hey, Chang Yu sighed: "Coming from reading history, can't you think of all those miraculous things?" He couldn't help but preach again: "Look, many emperors in the past dynasties believed in ghosts and gods to seek immortality, let alone immortality.
, There are only a few people who have lived past sixty, there are even fewer people who have lived over 70, and there is no one who has lived over 100. Is there really such a thing as the immortality medicine or the blessing of gods?" (Note, it is said that the historical king lived more than 100 years)
The only one who is 20 years old is Zhao Tuo, Emperor Wu of South Vietnam, but there is no historical evidence to support it and it is not credible)
Zhu Cixiang looked frustrated when he heard this, while Kun Xing asked Chang Yu curiously: "Is it true that there are no people over 100, or even people over 60?"
Chang Yu nodded: "There are eighty-two dynasties and two hundred and eighty-one emperors from the Qin Emperor to the present. The only four people over eighty are Emperor Wu of Liang, Xiao Yan, Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Gou, and Emperor Kublai Khan of the Yuan Dynasty. Those who are over seventy
There are only ten people, including the four eighty-year-olds (note, from the Qin Emperor to Puyi of the Qing Dynasty, our country has experienced a total of 83 dynasties and 559 emperors (the orthodox 302 include those emperors of the Southern Ming Dynasty)
"You, you know this so clearly, you, how do you know this?" Brother and sister Zhu Cixiang looked surprised. Chang Yu said casually: "Baidu."
What? The two of them were startled, and Chang Yu quickly changed his words: "Before I became an eunuch, when I was bored, I just read history and statistics for fun. This is called Baidu."
"You liar, I don't believe you." Zhu Cixi curled his lips: "When I met you before, you said you were illiterate. What kind of history can you read?"
"Did I say that? I don't remember." Chang Yu put down his bowls and chopsticks and stretched out: "Something happened to Fu Shan. Let's wait and hear the news tonight."
"What's the noise?" Zhu Shenxuan's voice came from outside the courtyard. The Zhu family brothers and sisters in the hall hurriedly left the banquet and went back to their rooms. Lian Xin and Qing Yi went forward to clear away the bowls and chopsticks. Chang Yu walked down the hall to greet Zhu Shen in the yard.
Xuan asked An.
"Listen to the sound of the drum tower," Chang Yu chuckled.
"I don't know what kind of tricks you are going to do." Zhu Shenxuan came to the hall and took a seat. Chang Yu helped him make tea: "Your Majesty has been very busy these days."
"The hustle and bustle is all for profit." Zhu Shenxuan sighed: "There are hundreds of mouths in the palace, and I have to make money to support my family."
"You can't become fat with just one bite, and you can't make all the money in one go. But our princes have fallen into the eyes of money and can't extricate themselves." Chang Yu joked, and Zhu Shenxuan shrugged: "I am a leisurely prince, you
Talking about what else you can do nowadays besides making money, it is most beneficial for those who neither participate in politics nor join the army to immerse themselves in making money."
"Your Majesty said this, and you are no longer friends with our family." Chang Yu smiled, and Zhu Shenxuan looked a little embarrassed: "I really didn't say this to the emperor through your mouth, it's true."
"That's fine, I just want to make money without delaying my business. It's time to marry that beautiful girl from the Yang family." Chang Yu changed the subject, and Zhu Shenxuan sighed: "I thought about it, but it's not the right time lately, so I'd better wait.
We'll wait until the spring is warmer after the new year. If I catch up with you and regain Xi'an, that would be the best thing."
"Since the prince has said this, our family must work harder. When the time comes, we can congratulate the prince and the prince together with the recapture of Xi'an!"
"Is the prince also getting married?" Zhu Shenxuan looked surprised.
Chang Yu nodded: "The emperor also said something general. After Xi'an is recovered, the prince will be married." Zhu Shenxuan said, "That's really a double happiness."
"That's not true, but it has caused a lot of trouble for our family. If...hehe, it would have delayed the wedding of the prince and the prince, which would be a big sin." Zhu Shenxuan quickly interrupted him: "Bah, bah, bah, where did it come from?
If so, there is no city in the world that you cannot conquer. After the new year, when the food and grass are complete and the soldiers and horses are fat, you will kill the general and chop the robber's dog head into pieces." Zhu Shenxuan gritted his teeth and could tell that he had something in his heart.
I hate Li Zicheng so much.
"Since the prince won't get married a year ago, why don't you pack up and prepare for a long trip?" Chang Yu suddenly said this, and Zhu Shenxuan raised his eyebrows: "You are just teasing me. I am a vassal king and cannot leave the fiefdom without an edict."
Yes, traveling far away? How far? Pingyang Mansion or Yanmen Pass?"
"Go to the capital." Chang Yu smiled: "If there is business in the capital, why don't you go and have a look?"
"Are you kidding me... Could it be..." Zhu Shenxuan suddenly realized something.
Chang Yu nodded: "Yes, our family has received the news, and the prince should also receive the imperial edict soon."
Zhu Yuanzhang once left many ancestral rules, but many of them gradually became decorations. Only one rule has been implemented thoroughly for hundreds of years, that is, the vassal king is not allowed to leave the fiefdom at will without any purpose. For hundreds of years,
Except for Zhu Di, anyone else who violates this ancestral rule will not end well.
Without the emperor's will, the vassal kings were not allowed to leave the fiefdom at will, but it did not mean that they would have to stay in that one-third of an acre of land for the rest of their lives, because every year the emperor would give them a chance to have fun, and that was the family reunion at the end of the year.
, hold an annual meeting to organize a team building, and summon all the vassal kings and clansmen from various places to the capital to chat and talk about household matters. In fact, it is just to see if each one of them is obedient.
Last year, due to the critical situation, the annual meeting was not held. This year, thanks to Chang Yu's efforts to turn the tide and stabilize the situation, and those vassal kings deserved to die, and those who deserved to escape also escaped. It is time to reshuffle the cards and celebrate, so Emperor Chongzhen
We are planning to hold a team building event at the end of this year so that everyone can meet and see if there are any extinct members in which branch or lineage.
