"Since Master Chen has an old friend to visit, he will go to the side for a tour first........ "Although the fire of gossip is burning, Ma Chao knows that at this time, it is not the time to come to see other people's ugly things, so it is better to avoid suspicion first."

"Hussar general, don't go!"

Before Ma Chao's words fell, and before Chen Ji could speak, a hurried voice came from outside the door. Ma Chao was stunned for a moment, and then saw a person dressed a little shabby? ........ No, it can simply be said that a tattered old master broke into the door, and with his hands that were almost as dry as chicken feet, he grabbed Ma Chao's brocade robe tightly, and said urgently: "Tai came today to learn that the general is here, and he has come to meet him!" ”

After that, Guo Tai ignored his old age and decrepitude, so he wanted to salute Ma Chao. And at this time, no matter how much Ma Chao was a bastard, he couldn't let this pitiful-looking old man kowtow to him, so he hurriedly grabbed Guo Tai and said: "Master Guo is famous all over the world, and he is like thunder. When I see it today, I should be super to the master as a junior, how can I let the master put the cart before the horse? ”

But as soon as he finished speaking, Ma Chao found that he had actually helped Guo Tai's hand, but he hadn't touched Guo Tai's body yet. The old man got up automatically, and it was obvious that the 'sincere request to see' just now was just a superb performance by Guo Tai. Think about the sincerity of Chen Qun's real salute just now, and his father can't get up if he doesn't speak. Ma Chao felt that the little hypocrisy in himself was really small compared to this old guy!

Moreover, after looking down from a distance, Ma Chao was stunned to find that inside the old man's ragged robe, he was actually wearing a high-quality silk silk robe! You must know that with Ma Chao's net worth at this time, he was only wearing a brocade robe sewn from silk cloth at this time. And this old man is wearing a silk uniform that is several times higher than silk!

Seeing this, Ma Chao inevitably smiled bitterly in his heart: I think that at the beginning, when my brother was brilliant, he was dressed in the most expensive Bai Lian among the silk cloths, which was more than ten times more expensive than your old boy's clothes! But now, as soon as the millions of victims open their mouths, Brother Swallow can only drop three grades in a row, so that your old boy can compare!

I have to say, your old boy is really as Xu Shu said, 'deceiving the world and stealing fame'! It is really the same as when Dong Zhuo was in power in Chang'an, 'the scholar humiliated his clothes, and the public opinion clothes in Tibet'. On the surface, it seems to be willing to be bitter, but in fact, it is gorgeous and greedy. A mouth of benevolence, righteousness and morality, a body of righteousness and awe-inspiring. Behind the scenes, dare to do it but not dare to do it, it is really the greatest sorrow of this era!

As a result, Ma Chao didn't have a good impression of this Guo Tai. The smile on his face has also become much lighter. But Guo Tai, an old thing, was dizzy, and he really thought that Ma Chao was shocked by his fame, and said exaggeratedly: "The hussar general is here, isn't it recruiting talents?" Yingchuan Academy has a false reputation, and the students it teaches have all changed their power and deceit, and they have no integrity at all. If the general is deceived by false fame, will he not lead the wolf into the house and bring trouble on himself? ”

After saying this, Guo Tai still felt that although the attack surface was wide, it was not ruthless enough. After glancing at Chen Ji, he poured dung on Chen Ji's head again, and said disdainfully: "How can a person like Chen Ji, who is greedy for life and afraid of death and violates filial piety, teach a good student who is upright and upright?" The so-called upper beam is not right, how can the lower beam be straight? ........”

"Guo Linzong!" Chen Qun couldn't bear it anymore at this time, after all, he insulted him so much in front of his father, and even said that the entire Yingchuan Academy was a place to hide filth and dirt, how could Chen Qun, who was upright and upright, have a clear distinction between right and wrong, endure it? As a result, Chen Qun ignored Chen Ji and Xu Shu's obstruction, and said angrily: "Old horseman! You are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, pointing at the heavens and scolding the earth. But I never thought about who was talking about ambitions at the beginning, but even the old mother at home dared to starve to death!! ”

Speaking of which, Ma Chao listened to the words of 'filial piety' between the two, and finally remembered the grievances between the Chen family and Guo Tai. And this incident is still an old thing, Ma Chao was still young at that time, and he had no impression of that incident at all.

Back then, after Chen Yu died, Chen Ji Chen Yuanfang was also a man of temperament, crying until he died, he was so thin because of excessive grief that he was so thin that his mother took pity on him and used brocade to wrap his body to keep him warm. It happened that Guo Tai and Guo Linzong rushed to mourn and see him, and said Chen Ji said: "The talents in Qinghai are the rules of the Quartet, how to mourn, and the brocade is covered?" Confucius said: The clothes are brocade, the eater is rice, and you are safe? I don't take it! With that, Guo Tai hurried away. Since the guests heard about this, there will be no one mourning for hundreds of days.

Ma Chao heard about this later, and he knew about it when he was chatting with the old servant at home a few days after he crossed over. At that time, Ma Chao was extremely surprised at this time. Obviously, filial piety to relatives cannot be judged by whether they were brocade at that time, and the hypocritical practice of paying attention to form and ignoring true feelings has always been what Ma Chao despised. In the official history, the filial piety of Chen Ji and Chen Chen to their parents, and the Yonghe of the boudoir, are recorded very clearly, and they are all filial piety.

On the other hand, Guo Tai, this person's filial piety really shocked Ma Chao: Guo Tai's family was poor, he lost his father at an early age, and he lived a miserable life with his mother. When he grew up, his mother wanted him to go to the county government to find an errand and talk to change his embarrassing situation in the past. However, Guo Tai, in the name of being ambitious, roared loudly and said that how could he be in the company of those contemptuous villains in the Yamen? After that, he did not follow his mother's orders and studied under Chenggao Qu Boyan.

During his studies, Guo Tai's mother was seriously ill, and Guo Tai never went home to take care of his mother on the grounds that his studies were important. Three years later, Guo Taibo passed the 'Three Graves and Five Classics', exercised the 'good discussion, and the beautiful sound system', coupled with his 'eight feet tall, burly appearance' physical appearance and ability to drill camps, won the praise of the world. But his mother died of starvation on the grass bed because of poverty. Guo Tai made a big filial piety because of this, saying that his mother knew reason and morality, completed his studies, and recited to his mother's grave with tears in his eyes. After the world knew about it, they praised Guo Tai as a person of filial piety, a mother and son, and a model for the world.

Compared with these two parties, Ma Chao is not a real fool, how can he not know which is right and wrong between Chen Ji and Guo Tai? Looking at Guo Tai's eyes, he became even more strange and indifferent. Even, deep in the eyes, there is a deep contempt!

Confucian culture is certainly broad and profound, but the word 'filial piety' has been tossed beyond recognition, such as Guo Tai's hypocrisy under the pretense of the so-called 'morality' grandiose into the house, which has led to many human confinement and many distortions of the mind, but also led to many hypocritical and even poisonous stories, and even become an important part of the inferior nature of the Chinese nation! This kind of 'filial piety' is really ridiculous in the world! - Guo Tai, a wolf-hearted person, didn't want to think about it, what his biological mother wanted to see most on the sickbed was not the last look of his son?!!

The idea was set, but Ma Chao became more and more calm, and after slowly walking to the top of the seat, he took a sip of tea and watched Guo Tai's clumsy performance coldly. And Ma Chao was silent, Guo Tai thought that Ma Chao supported what he did, so he was even more furious, and scolded Chen Qun loudly: "The kid is a traitor and an evil person, and he doesn't follow etiquette and Confucianism, so he slanders the old man like this? On weekdays, you don't even shed a single tear after Chen Ji's death? ! ”

Guo Tai came to the door to slander one after another, and even Chen Ji cursed at this time. forced Chen Qun to be red-faced and indignant at this time, and even Xu Shu couldn't hold back his anger, and when he opened his mouth and was about to fight back for Chen Ji, he suddenly saw Ma Chao still drinking tea quietly on the side........ After making this discovery, Xu Shu immediately made a look at Chen Ji. Then he hurriedly covered Chen Qun's mouth. Don't let Chen Qun defend again: "Virtuous brother, those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid........"

Sure enough, Ma Chao began to speak at this time, his tone was neither light nor heavy, and he said without hurry: "When Chao's father died, Chao was not in front of him........ Although a few tears were shed, it could not be exchanged for the resurrection of his father from the dead. In this way, Chao is also a great unfilial person. ”

When Guo Tai heard this, he was overjoyed, and couldn't help but say: "General Wencheng Wude, after taking over the Ma family, he extended the Ma family's foundation to Sili, Jing, and Henan. The general of Zhengxi has knowledge, and he will definitely be at ease for the general. ”

"But I'd rather not do that. I only hope that when my father died tragically, I can accompany my father to live and die together! Ma Chao angrily drank the tea in the cup and said sadly.

And Guo Tai's face, like an eggplant in June, was frozen on his originally secretly happy face, and he was very comically shocked........
