Chapter 106: The Essentials
On the eighth day of the second lunar month, Liu Siyong finally figured it out, he found Suiwang, his expression was aggrieved, as if he had suffered a serious illness, Liu Siyong said to Suiliangzuo, "The king ......"
"Why should you be so identious between you and me, for outsiders, I am the king, but for you, I will always be your eldest brother."
"I figured it out, but I won't go out, but stay by the side of the saint as a staff member, I am for the sake of the common people in the world......" Liu Siyong said this, laughing at himself and saying, "What is the common people in the world, it's just that I have no guts." From now on, there will be no Liu Siyong, and now I will be called Lin Quan. ”
When the king heard this, he sighed and said, "Brother, why are you suffering? Since you want this, what should Miss Chen do, what should Miss Nie do? ”
"What shame do I have to see them now?"
Seeing him say this, Sui Wang could only sigh, and at this time Liu Siyong continued, "In my life, what I think and think is this matter, and now I finally have a decision, whether this is right or wrong, I don't know." ”
"Brother, don't talk about these frustrating words, since you have made a decision, brother, then I will take you to meet the saint."
Sui Wang took Liu Siyong out of here, and when he arrived in the palace, Liu Siyong changed into clothes, and then after many inspections, he and Sui Wang went to the study and saw the saint.
When the sage saw Liu Siyong coming, a smug smile appeared on his face, and he said to Liu Siyong, "Liu Siyong, shouldn't it be called Lin Quan now, Lin Aiqing, since you are here, I will entrust you with a big matter." ”
"What the sage said is a matter of land inspection, and this matter is tolerant of the mountain people."
Liu Siyong explained his method, and after the sage heard it, he pondered for a while, and said with a smile, "This is not bad, just do what you said Aiqing." ”
The minister sent a pen and paper, let Liu Siyong draw up the holy decree, this is his trust, the second is a test for him, see his kung fu, Liu Siyong will prepare the holy decree, the minister handed it over, the saint read it, let the palm print eunuch see the jade seal to bring it, cover his own big seal, and then let the minister go to the world.
The saint looked at the king, and left with the king.
"Lin Aiqing, I have something I want to ask, why do you have to follow the ancient system?"
The sage's question is very sharp, and he is obviously a rhetorical question, and what he wants to know is not the reason for following the ancient system, but the reason for not following the ancient system.
Liu Siyong thought for a while, and said to the sage, "The Analects have clouds, they are majestic, they have success, and they have articles." That's it. ”
"Really? Aiqing may wish to interpret the scriptures. ”
"Success here is the same as the article, success is in politics, and the article is in teaching, this is what the book says about the people descending from heaven, being the king, and being the teacher. The ancient sages held the law system and the Taoist system, so the ancient sage kings could be reformed, the five emperors were not the same, and the three kings were different. ”
When the sage heard this, he was interested and asked, "Is that so?" Why is that? ”
"Because there is a way in the world, the common people do not discuss it. In the past, Ji Gong did not have a throne, but held the two unifications, so he could reform the system and divide the seals, and make rites and music. ”
"You said earlier that the ancient saint king, can't you be a saint now?"
"In the past, the royal road was untied, the government descended from the Son of Heaven to the princes, and then the ministers ruled the country, the Son of Heaven was not the world's teacher, the Taoist system was lost, Nishan started from the grass, and the humble was the world's teacher, the Taoist system fell to the Nishan, after the Nishan, it was passed on to Yasheng, after Yasheng, it was passed on to Wenzhongzi, and Zhuzi was passed on after Wenzhongzi, and Zhuzi was 500 years ago."
After hearing this, the sage pondered for a moment before he spoke, "If the Dao system falls to me, then I can hold the two weapons and restore the ancient king's Dao?" ”
Liu Siyong saluted and said, "This is not known to the mountain people. ”
"Very good, very good, since you don't want to be an official, then I can give you 90,000 Su."
Liu Siyong thanked him, and hurriedly said that he didn't dare, this is Yulu, which was obtained when Nishan was recognized by Lu Gong, and the sage gave him this Yulu, which was prepared to be as important to him as Lu Gong.
But Liu Siyong didn't dare to accept it, this was too extraordinary, and now that the sage listened to his words, he wanted to take back the Taoism, and he was asking for this Yulu, which was really and looking for death.
The sage continued to ask, "I want to be peaceful, I don't know what Aiqing has to say." ”
"The mountain people are brave, may I ask why the sage Dabang Wei lost the world, and how did the small Bangyu gain the world."
The sage made fragrant tea, shook his head, and said to Liu Siyong, "Aiqing, please speak." ”
"It's that the Wei Dynasty doesn't respect morality, so Tianxin rejects it. And the Ming Virtue of the National Dynasty was prudently punished, and it was heard that the Emperor of Heaven, the Emperor was resting, and the Emperor of Heaven was the Emperor of Great Destiny. Liu Siyong's rhetoric can be said to be very old-fashioned, but it is in line with the mandate of heaven to change the que, and the mouth of Jianyu Yuanzi.
The sage was not very satisfied with this answer, and said to Liu Siyong, "Keep talking." ”
"The book says that the emperor has no relatives, but virtue is supplementary. Heaven is not credible. Destiny is not normal. The dynasty won the world because of the mandate of heaven, and it cannot use the mandate of heaven to rule the world. We should use Mingde diligently to govern all directions. ”
Only then did the sage understand what Liu Siyong meant, and said interestingly, "Then how to govern all directions with virtue?" ”
"Heaven also mourns the people of the four directions. Heaven is the only time to seek the people. People are not in the water prison, but in the people's prison. This is what the book says, the saint can only enjoy the people, in order to enjoy the destiny of heaven. This is the root of Wei losing his deer and Yu Ren's gain. ”
The sage asked solemnly, "Then how do you protect the people?" ”
"One is the difficulty of the crops, and the dependence of the villain. Yu Dynasty is noble, the four bodies are not diligent, the grains are not divided, recuperating in the high-rise buildings, not seeing the high walls, and the difficulties of the people. The saint should advise spring ploughing to show the world's servants. ”
"Huaibao Xiaomin, Huixian widowhood. For widows, widows, lonely and sick people, the court should have something to support, and they should not be left to fend for themselves, which hurts the virtue of life and good life. The benevolent are invincible, and only the benevolent can rule the world. ”
"What is a benevolent person?"
"The benevolent, dear, the lover of people and the love of things. Yasheng said kiss, benevolence. On the filial piety of language, it is the foundation of benevolence. It is also said that he loves all people and is kind. It is easy to say that the great virtue of heaven and earth is born. Fanlu said, Tianren also. ”
Liu Siyong quoted the scriptures and told the sages that it is not only necessary to reconcile the heavenly family, but also to let the people of the world be cared for, and the love of all things in heaven and earth can thus achieve the purpose of saving money.
The sage nodded, and asked Liu Siyong to continue the topic just now, Liu Siyong continued, "In addition to benefiting the people, they are also punished, and the more the book is clear, the more virtuous the punishment is, if the ten evils are committed, the punishment will not be forgiven." ”
Liu Siyong paused when he said this; "Protect the people and punish prudently, the great cause of Emperor Ren, I hope Your Majesty can inherit it."
The sage nodded and said to Liu Siyong, "Aiqing, you have a good interpretation of this scripture. But now I have one more thing for you to do. ”
The sage told Liu Siyong and asked Liu Siyong to go to Xiangyun Mansion to assist Xiangguo Gong.
After Liu Siyong thanked him, the sage personally wrote a handwritten edict, saying that Liu Siyong was an angel and a senior official, and personally gave Liu Siyong a prepared waist card for Liu Siyong to bring.
"Aiqing, this farewell, I am waiting for you in the capital."
After Liu Siyong thanked him, he was taken out by the ministers, and the king personally hosted a banquet to entertain him, saying to him, "Brother, cherish it." ”
"Thank you, big brother, I'm going to trouble you with other things."
"Brother, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, maybe these girls can't understand you for a while, but after a long time, they will understand your distress. After all, you are still a reader, not a chivalrous man. ”
Liu Siyong didn't speak, drank it all, and continued with the king, "Don't worry, I will naturally take care of their safety, but it's a pity brother, you can't see the prosperity of Feng Zen this time." ”
Liu Siyong didn't answer, he didn't think so, the so-called sealing of Zen, but it was a success, just like what he just said, you can win the world by virtue of the mandate of heaven, and you can't rule the world by virtue of the mandate of heaven. A boring ceremony, Liu Siyong felt that it didn't matter whether he watched it or not.
After parting, Liu Siyong was no longer unkempt, but dressed in purple and jade, and as for the Shuanghua Sword and Feiyun Sword, Liu Siyong also asked Sui Wang to hand it over to Nie Chen and the others.
Sitting on a horse and walking on the official road, Liu Siyong thought about whether he was a second minister, and after thinking about it, there was no conclusion, his parents had received official positions in the Yu Dynasty, and he was not a remnant of the Wei Dynasty, and this second minister didn't seem to blame himself.
However, he can be sure that he is already a traitor who is spurned by chivalry, although he has not done anything to betray chivalry.
Along the way, he didn't want to walk the way he came, and he couldn't help but feel distressed when he thought of everything he had come.
It's a pity that this decision has already been made, whether it's right or wrong, and it can only go on.
If Yu Chao just let himself handle government affairs, then he is naturally worthy of his heart, and if he wants to assist Yu Chao to deal with chivalrous ways, then he will definitely not obey.
However, Liu Siyong looked at Feiyun Mountain and showed an unbearable expression, this time on the chivalrous road, I am afraid that there will be a catastrophe.
On the second day of the second month of February, Liu Siyong finally understood that Bi Yidong was a member of the imperial court, and when he saw Bi Yidong, Bi Yidong was ready to put all the blame on himself.
If it weren't for his luck and the desperate rescue of the king, when the time comes, this failure will definitely be counted on his head, and then kill him to expose this failure.
Whether he wants to or not, he can't run away as a traitor on the chivalrous road, and now in his situation, even if he tells the people on the chivalrous road, the people on the chivalrous road will only believe Bi Yidong.
To deal with Bi Yidong, now is not the time, Liu Siyong has to wait, wait for an opportunity, and get this traitor out of the chivalrous way.
Defecting to the Yu Dynasty is forced by the general trend, but it is too shameless to deal with your own people again.
Liu Siyong walked like this, and when he arrived at Heyang City, he entered the city, stayed for one night, and prepared to cross the river the next day.
It's a pity that the sky doesn't follow people's wishes, he may be guilty, he fell ill the next day, and after Lang Zhong's diagnosis and treatment, he told Liu Siyong that he had to cultivate for a month and couldn't act.
