prince meets king

"How nice he is..." Xie Yuan looked at him with great interest, and said that it seemed that he should celebrate, after all, it was a great award, and got up to drink red wine, "But you don't want him anymore? Just because he is so good gone?"

The host on TV teased Duan Rong's delicate state recently, and mentioned his wedding ring in his words.Duan Rong said frankly that it has been decided, and said that even the award-winning song was written for his lover.

"No, I like him very much. Because of him, I can get whatever I want now. In the eyes of ordinary people, it seems that I have everything that a person should have for a lifetime. Even as a same-sex lover, I shouldn't have it. I got it all, and it’s all at the top. He gave me his feelings, he shared his wealth with me, he added his honor to me, and even his family recognized me... I got this good husband What more can you ask for?" Gu Donglin looked at the people on the screen, and said without any ups and downs that a few days ago, Duan Rong handed over all the real estate under his name and all the bank account passwords to him, and signed a contract saying that if they broke up, he would clean up When he left the house, his eyes were so indifferent, "In my love, even if he is not the only one, he will be the last one; in my family, no one is more important than him. I will spend ten years with him." Years, 20 years, and if you're lucky, a lifetime. That's the best."

"Replace a series of short-term madness with a long-term stupidity." Xie Yuan looked at him tenderly, and clicked twice. "It's enough to do this. But what you said didn't match what you meant just now. I thought you didn't want him anymore."

"Why not? In fact, there is no passion in love. People's first reaction is always thinking, then change the object of passion, then change another love, so change another, change another, forever I think it is stupid to hope for a fleeting and eternal beauty in that cycle. In fact, there is only one solution, to release the object of passion... from the love of a single person. Happiness, there is Dimensional." Gu Donglin took a sip from the wine glass he handed over, and turned the goblet in his hand, "He gave everything about love, which is very good. But what he gave me was not my soul-hungry. What I long for. I don't deny his love for me, I just... I just can't take love as the only purpose of my happiness."

He thought for a while, looked at the wine glass and said: "Desires have a natural hierarchical order. Different kinds of beings seek or enjoy different kinds of happiness: the happiness of a donkey is different from the happiness of a person. The various desires of a being or The hierarchical order of preferences indicates what the being should be. The work of man consists in the thoughtful life, the deliberate action. The good life is the life which is consistent with the natural order of man's existence, and is formed by the well-ordered Or a life overflowing with a healthy soul..."

Xie Yuan followed up, "To put it simply, it is a life in which people's natural preferences can be satisfied to the greatest extent in accordance with proper order, a life in which man can keep his head clear to the greatest extent, and a life in which nothing in his soul is wasted. "[Note] The young boy was cutting fruit and staring warily at the two men who were reciting together with goblets, as if he had seen some kind of religious mystery.

Gu Donglin smiled sadly, "So normally, I went from being poor to being rich, from being a white man to lying on a kneeling bed on the ground tied around my waist to a tall, rich and handsome man. This is indelible. It’s a kind of boring excess, not concealing it is a kind of happiness that sounds horrible. Do you think I’m interesting? It's meaningless. I'm a mortal, and he's a mortal. We keep warm together, and nothing will be left except for a little spark that looks ridiculous. Many people have loved each other in this world, and there will be many people who will love each other in the future , Everywhere is life and death. Love and family can give people a sense of security, a sense of belonging, a sense of belonging, a sense of happiness, respect, thoughtfulness, attachment and warmth, but they can't be erased. We just rely on such things to live. When we die, the wind blows ashes There will be none left, who will know that we have been here? Whether it is love or family, such happiness is indeed very important to a person, but it is only the foundation. It is very good, but it is impossible for a person to stay at home forever. People always have to go out to pursue other values...higher-dimensional happiness."

Gu Donglin felt a little dejected when he said this, he lowered his head and buried his face in his hands: "After all, I am a man, if there is anything in this earthly world that deserves my more energy to pursue, it must be... fighting, conquering, honor , brilliance, greatness, eternity...or detached from the mundane, higher, then it must be meditation, attainment of the Tao, sanctification, and becoming a virtuous person. These are not afforded by being lingering with another person. Even if I linger with him day and night I am still dying alone. I want more people to hear my name, and I want more people to understand my meaning. If I just live in peace, happiness, family harmony, and a rich man who enjoys life , I don’t want to die with peace. I hope that when I die, I can lay a book on my pillow with a clear conscience. I hope that I can do something for the people in this world and leave something... instead of carrying the name of 'my husband is Duan Rong' I've been in a daze for the rest of my life."

"Build a heart for the world, establish a way for the people, inherit the knowledge of the past, and create peace for all generations." Xie Yuan said.

Gu Donglin hurriedly said yes yes yes, Xie Yuan disliked that you should read more national history: "You have finally woken up. I will watch how long you can degenerate. But I still want to remind you, what you ask No way, it's not Duan Rong's fault, you hate him, it's just venting anger. The beauty of the world, both hands must be grasped, both hands must be hard, if you can't grasp it firmly, you can't blame him, it's you and me who were born at the wrong time. We used to have God, later we had holy kings, and then we had heroes, but now, we only have the masses. The masses have forgotten that people can be gods, holy kings, and heroes. They don’t believe it. They think they are born to be selfish and greedy for merit. Shameless, living just for the sake of my own dog, struggling in the lowest dimension of happiness, and wishing for nothing... Humans were not like this before. Humans can do great good. Humans killed the gods with their own hands, thinking that they had obtained freedom and equality .Now people only see a world where even the good is broken into pieces, so they can only see the ideal, understand?"

Xie Yuan pointed to the bejeweled celebrities and beauties on the red carpet on the screen, "This era can't tolerate honor, greatness, and eternal splendor. Only money and power can be tolerated, do you understand?"

"I understand, why don't I understand," Gu Donglin lazily filled a glass for himself, "So I don't want to do anything. I don't want to make money, I don't want to be in politics, I just read books, and then teach and educate people. Pie falls from the sky, people still think that I have excellent luck, and I am already an extremely human being. Who would have thought that I only managed my personal life, and the political life and contemplative life are all out of reach. The ancients said that self-cultivation, family governance and world peace, I have a family, but I am just a fledgling. But when I am out of the fledgling, I am already living on the street crying and sighing for the wrong way. How can I be happy alone because I have a family, a beautiful palace, and a heart."

"Don't forget, a family is not something anyone can have if they want it, 'a doctor has a family'. Since he has pulled you from the knowledge of the kingdom of heaven, then you can follow me." Xie Yuan drank , put the cup on the table, and smiled: "Let me tell you what is the eternal desire of a man in the secular world. It is not love, but power."

Gu Donglin returned to his youthful days when he was following his senior brother.Speaking of it, it is really unbelievable that Xie Yuan can make friends with Gu Donglin for such a long time.It can only be said that Gu Donglin is a noble person in his life.

Xie Yuan can be regarded as a person who was born in a powerful family, a noble family, and a person who is considered for marriage. At least he must be able to enter the Clion Ladies Ball in Paris. Duan Rong is just a little dick in front of him.His family was originally a scholarly family, but his grandfather joined the army and used a stylus to carry out revolution for most of his life. Now he is the only remaining founding father, and he has a gun in his hand.As for Xie Yuan himself, he has always been active in thinking but not active. When other children were running around in the office compound, he learned "Shuowen" from his grey-bearded grandfather.The perfect square characters are translated from simplified to traditional, and then into official script, and then follow the oracle bone inscriptions and bronze inscriptions all the way up.Grandpa touched his head and said: This is the root of our ancestors. Only by going back to the roots can we learn how to be a man and learn knowledge.

This is how the original word Xie Yuan came about. "This 'yuan' is related to 'yuan', Zhou Yuan's original." His grandfather always said this when talking about this precious grandson.What is Zhou Yuan?Zong Zhou!The place where the Ji family made a fortune, the place where the Chinese built their grandeur!After more than 20 years of nurturing under this name, Xie Yuan really did not disgrace his name.Chinese culture is based on the family, and learning is also based on family learning. With the origin of family learning, the foundation of national heritage is deep, and after many years of internalization, the character comes out.Don't think that if you read a lot, you are a nerd, it is scary to be educated!Coupled with that family background and that kind of education, in ancient times, one would be a son of a family.You can see that he is reserved and introverted, completely different from the high-profile and rampant appearance of his neighbors, but his heart is bigger than the sky, the so-called Pi Li Chunqiu.

Gu Donglin is a rare person he can see in his eyes, and he is also a child brought out by him. He has similar sexuality and similar habits. If he wants, Xie Yuan is willing to give him another world.It's just that the desires in this world are mostly harmful to the body, too deep into the drama to destroy others and destroy himself, things that Xie Yuan dare not touch himself, he only grasps the measure and lets him taste them.Gu Donglin also knows the pros and cons, and it is quite interesting for this new type of food to just watch others eat it with relish.Counting the days when Duan Rong will come home, he bid farewell to his senior brother, picked a small gift, wrote a small love letter and put it in his pocket to go home.
