Who Cares

No matter how powerful the Emperor Shengyuan is, his essence is still a man of flesh and blood, how can he not love beauty? And this beauty is more free and easy, unrestrained, proud of snow and deceitful, and it becomes more and more addictive. At this moment, he has quietly sat closer, with a pair of hot eyes fixedly staring, every time the woman drinks a glass, he will pour the wine in time, and enjoy the pleasure of serving her. When she squints and smiles, she poses again. The ignorant appearance, for fear that the inner Meng Lang will be noticed by the other party, which will cause disgust.

In the audience, Xu Guangzhi was still talking loudly, but every time he threw an argument, he was criticized incompletely by Guan Suyi upstairs, not to mention that Qin Lingyun and Emperor Shengyuan had been dumbfounded, even Li, who did not know the big characters, found it wonderful. Incomparable.

"According to you, Confucian scholars are equivalent to insects for the family and country. They are useless?" Qin Lingyun smiled badly, "I really should check the old man in and let him listen to your arguments. The master of Confucianism taught him his own way. A good disciple, he turned him down for nothing."

Guan Suyi was already slightly drunk, holding the small wine cup in one hand and shaking it gently, while supporting the chin with the other hand, his ecstasy grew wild. Her smoky eyes looked at the big man of the Jiuli nationality, and the other party immediately raised the flask to fill her up, and the roots of her ears were quietly red.

She chuckled and said slowly, "Who said that my grandfather and father are useless? They preach, teach, and resolve doubts, enlighten the children, teach them to be ritual, moral, righteous, and aspirational, and they will grow up in the future. These wise, moral, righteous, and ambitious young people will become the mainstay of the Wei state. This is the contribution of education, the merits of the community, the benefits of the future. After ten thousand years, their names will surely be engraved in the history books for future generations to look forward to, because They get rid of ignorance and open up their minds. Lord Hou said yes or no?"

Qin Lingyun was speechless. After a while, he took out the Buddhist beads angrily, and sarcastically said, "The good and the bad, the black and the white, are all described by you alone. Let us laymen shut up."

Li cried his palms and smiled, "The first time I met a character that Xiaoyun couldn't say, I'm a big confession!"

"Sister, please." Guan Suyi stretched out her hand to invite, turned his face, and saw the Jiuli man obsessedly looking at the wine cup in his hand, couldn't help but smile, "Do you think it's boring to drink the cup? You don't need to wait here. , Let’s go have a drink with them in the past.” Fingertips tapped the guards at the next table.

Qin Lingyun covered his face, and couldn't believe that Guan Suyi was able to call his Majesty so naturally. What is "no need to serve"? If you know your Majesty's identity, and don't know what expression she will make, can she still be so calm and proud of everything? Afraid you will be scared to cry, right?

Emperor Sheng Yuan was not at all annoyed, but somewhat enjoyed her care. He was indeed drinking a big bowl, but it was not a wine bug, but was fascinated by her transparent fingertips glowing with pink crystals, and then he lost his senses. He shook his head and said honestly, "It is the honor of a humble job to serve a lady, and the lady speaks very interestingly, and he likes to listen to it. People in the Central Plains have a saying, "Listening to the king is better than reading ten years." But now I am deeply moved. Listening to my wife say a few words, it is more effective than reading ten thousand books in a humble position."

Guan Suyi was amused by him and waved his hand, "You don't need to hold me, I know how many jins are a few taels by myself. I can't compare with my grandmother because of my knowledge, and my grandfather with technical expertise. The gossip of the people should be amusement. There is another saying in the Central Plains that “reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles”. If you have time, go out and take a walk and you will find that I am nothing more than that." Li took the drink and filled it for him personally, and pushed forward, speaking softly, "Since you like to listen to me, let's drink and talk, and leave you alone."

Zhenxihou immediately nodded, "Madam invites you to drink, and you drink it open. Today, we have no distinction between high and low, and there is no difference between master and servant." As for who is the master and who is the servant, they know in their hearts, they just keep the secret. Su Yi is only one person.

Emperor Sheng Yuan scratched his head pretentiously, thanked his wife for the reward, and finally drank the wine. He loved his wife's blushing cheeks very much, and he loved her bright eyes that were always filled with mist and streamer. She speaks softly and softly like feathers across the tip of her heart, but occasionally she threw it loudly and tremblingly. Talking to her is really a lot of fun. As for what Xu Guangzhi was saying downstairs, he had completely forgotten him.

Several people were drinking around the table. After a short while, there was thunderous applause on the first floor. I saw that Xu Guangzhi had refuted the last Legalist scholar and put up a four-character cursive calligraphy-the benevolent is invincible.

"Okay, good word!"

"Everyone Xu is really insightful!"

"Dethrone a hundred schools and respect Confucianism. This is an exquisite statement! If I, Wei Guo, respect Confucianism and practice benevolent governance, I will be invincible in the world!" The audience applauded and completely admired.

Xu Guangzhi gave up his hands in the audience, and finally walked to the side of the Jiuli noble who had sponsored his ten-day war of words, and saluted respectfully. A group of Confucian scholars immediately surrounded him, and you followed me up and down, and the scene was very lively.

"The benevolent is invincible, these four words are very domineering." Although Li couldn't understand, he listened and asked with a smile, "Sister, what do you mean?"

"He who exercises a benevolent government, all people return to their hearts and come from all over the world, they are invincible. This is a well-known saying, so the emperor will recommend the Confucian family, suppress a hundred families, and govern the country with benevolence. The emperor is a holy monarch because he cares about the people. "Because Zhenxihou was the emperor's eagle dog, Guan Suyi patted a flattery, and then got up and said goodbye.

As soon as the sweetness of Shengyuan Emperor's heart surged, he was suppressed by the loss, and hurriedly said, "Madam, let's sit down for a while, it's still early anyway."

"No..." Guan Suyi's unfinished words were all dissipated in anger. Xu Guangzhi won the debate and changed the original lottery so that the legal scholars handed over the classics they were carrying and threw them into the brazier for burning. Lose. He intends to use actions to show his determination to dethrone a hundred schools and dominate Confucianism, and instead of stopping them, the Confucian students around him clapped and clamored.

Qin Lingyun's eyes burst red with anger, and he was about to speak angrily, but when he heard a faint "Zhuzi" in his ear, he turned to see that it was Mrs. Zhenbeihou.

"Well, what is going on!" Guan Suyi emphasized his tone. "While advocating benevolence and fraternity every time, while imitating the truth of the tyranny of Qin Xing, burning books and cultivating Confucianism, we should treat our words and deeds as weird and ominous! Mingli, read with a heart to nourish his character, cultivate his true feelings, if Xu Guangzhiguo is a serious scholar, how can he be so hostile! Taoist rule by doing nothing, legalist monarchy unified, Confucian benevolence, Mo school non-attack, military strategy , Doctors help the world... All of the scholars have their own strengths, all of which are the jewels of history and the heritage of humanities. It is a sin to strangle half a point. Xu Guangzhi is upright, you dare!"

She scolded a few straight words in a row, showing that she was already very angry. At this time, papermaking had just been invented and had not yet spread. The war caused many bamboo slips to be burned and destroyed, and books became extremely precious. In particular, books made with paper and pen and string stitched with ropes were extremely valuable.

When closing the door, Guan Suyi wished to replace all the dowry with scrolls and not obtain it. Xu Guangzhi was kind to Xu Guangzhi. A single word of skill made these many classics torment. It is because of her open-minded nature that she is also anxious at this moment. Weeping blood.

Emperor Sheng Yuan felt the same, and quickly calmed down, "Madam, don't be angry, don't be anxious, I'll send someone to save the book." When the words fell, the guards standing around waved their hands, and immediately several people ran downstairs to put out the fire.

"Don't splash water, find a few stone slabs to suppress the burning flame." Guan Suyi eagerly ordered.

Emperor Sheng Yuan made a gesture to the guard leader again, and the man immediately ran to the backyard, found a few cylinder-pressing stone slabs, and placed them on the blazing fire. The flame trembles smaller and smaller, until it goes out, but the thick smoke billows, fascinated by the sight. The Legalists knelt down and howled, not wanting to live, while the Confucianists were angry and indomitable, grabbing a few guards and waiting to be guilty.

A few people didn't entangle too much, they showed a token and quickly returned to their lives. The aggressive Jiuli nobleman stopped completely, and then looked upstairs with trepidation. He seemed to want to kneel. His knees were already half-bended, but he was stopped by someone's fierce sight, so he could only arch his hands pale, and then left in a desperate manner. As soon as they left, the Confucian scholar whose mind turned fast had noticed the abnormality, and followed him with a bird and beast. Several legal scholars staggered while weeping, and walked out the door.

After three hundred meters away, Xu Guangzhi asked in a low voice, "Master, who is that person just now?"

"Don't ask more." Having said that, King Jun pointed to the direction of the imperial city.

Xu Guangzhi was surprised at first, then ecstatic, and forced himself to suppress his heartbeat and said, "Then, my majesty, is it in your eyes?"

"He is best in Confucianism. There is no reason why he can't come to watch the battle. This king guessed that he has come more than this time. You performed well, and you have already made a name for yourself in Yanjing. The king will recommend it for you tomorrow." After a moment, he said, "You have some avenues yourself. It's better to ask a few famous legends to write a few words of recommendation. It will be more convenient to act."

"Students are going to visit everyone. The grace of the prince's support is unforgettable!" Xu Guangzhi couldn't wait to be authentic.

"This king helped you to learn only because of your fancy, not for the sake of retribution. Go ahead, you will be loyal to the court in the future." King Jingjun seems to be high-minded, but in fact he is ambitious. The two understand each other, and there is no need to say anything, they will part ways together for a while, and each will plan without mentioning it.

In the Wencui Building, the crowds walked and scattered, and half a cup of tea was only three or two tables left. The staff in the hall was busy cleaning up the dishes and cleaning the filth, and there was a mess. The private room on the second floor was restored to its original state, all with screens to block the line of sight, leaving only one exit.

Guan Suyi was sitting in a precarious manner, and her knuckles frequently tapped on the tabletop, which showed that her mood was very upset. A brazier emitting residual heat was placed in front of her, and the bluestone slab pressed on it was still smoking. If it was opened rashly, the flames might reignite again, so she could only wait.

Emperor Sheng Yuan was afraid that she would be anxious, so he could not help but persuade her, "Madam, stay calm, and the fireworks have been suppressed, so we won't destroy the scroll again. When the heat dissipates, let's work together slowly."
