Chapter 317 Mother's Birthday Banquet
The door of the attic is open, and there are many people inside and outside. Sitting in the center is an old lady with a silver-like face, with kind eyes and a rosy complexion. Although she does not have any jewelry ornaments, she is a thick aura, which makes her look very close.
There are men, women, young and old around the old lady, and her dress is different. There are literary scholars, scholars, ladies, and boys who are wearing pink. They all stand behind the railings to watch the performances on the stage.
The disciples of the Tongguang Society rushed in with a bad attitude. The yard was full of chaos, but there was no panic in the attic, and they pointed at the scene and discussed.
Mingqin looked into the attic for a while, and suddenly he caught a few familiar figures. A girl in a dark shirt held the fence and watched from a distance. Next to her was a handsome young man talking and laughing loudly.
"Sister Qing? Why is she here?"
The girl in the dark shirt is Yan Qiuqing, who has not seen for a long time. The man Mingqin also recognized it, but Chen Guanbao, the disciple of the Firework Taoist who was intercepted by Princess Wansheng at the foot of Wanlei Mountain. After a closer look, there was a girl in red next to Chen Guanbao, who was his cousin Yiliu Jin. Yan Qiuqing was also following Yan Shunying from Lingxiao Pavilion. She was the daughter of Marshal Tianfan of the Xihe Magistrate's Mansion and the sister of Helian Shunhua, the priest of Yajiu in Guangming Academy.
When Ming Qin saw Chen Guanbao's attentiveness towards Yan Qiuqing, he wanted to dig my foot. He could not hold back, and he pinched a spell, and turned into a green feathered and red beak parrot, flew down from the eaves of the corridor and fell on Yan Qiuqing's shoulders.
Chen Guanbao glanced at the parrot and pointed at the parrot with a surprised look, "Miss Yan, where did this parrot come from?"
Yan Shunying also noticed when she heard the sound and laughed: "Maybe it was raised by a noble family in the palace."
"Look at me to catch it and have fun."
Chen Guanbao was happy, worried that there was no rare thing to flatter him. He learned some fists and kicks from Li Huoyun, and immediately his palms came out like lightning and grabbed Yan Qiuqing's shoulders.
"rude."
Yan Qiuqing scolded, and the parrot stood on her shoulder, allowing others to touch her feet. The shoulders quickly shrank. With a bang, the fist opened in the future.
Ming Qin laughed in his heart, and suddenly flew out on Chen Guanbao's forehead and pecked, flapping his wings and shouting: "Slutty gangster, despicable..."
Chen Guanbao stroked his forehead with a 'Oh' and exclaimed pain, pointing at the parrot so angry that he couldn't speak.
Chen Jin hurriedly said, "Miss Yan, don't get me wrong. My brother just wanted to catch the bird. He was stupid and didn't think very well."
"It's not a problem." Yan Qiuqing didn't delve into it and said lightly: "This parrot is harmless to us, why do you have to catch it in the cage? Master Chen is troublesome."
Mingqin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. There was not much intimacy when they called each other. It seemed that they wanted to pursue Yan Qiuqing but were just wishful thinking of the Chen siblings.
At this time, the man in white and Chuyi had already reached a critical moment. Chuyi was practicing kung fu in one's body, which was quite sensational in the Shenguang Sect. For example, drinking some talisman water and promoting some secret techniques that gods protect their bodies and invulnerable swords and guns. If outsiders don't know the foundation, they can't help but believe him.
The man in white punched Chu Yi and blew and blew his feet. The guy shouted and didn't care at all. Instead, he made the man in white fall and fell back several steps, and sweat was seen on his forehead.
Chu Yi looked at it with a gap, and shouted loudly and pounced on him. He hugged the man in white and turned around and hit the stone pillar in the courtyard for a few times. The man in white couldn't break free, so he quickly supported the stone pillar with his legs. The two fought for a while. The man in white suddenly wrapped around the pillar. When Chu Yi left the ground, he suddenly felt aroused, and his face was as shocked as earth. The man in white climbed to the eaves, grabbed Chu Yi's belt with his back hand and tied it to the fence. Then he landed and bowed, saying, "I don't have a simple plan to offer my mother a cup to celebrate her birthday."
"The hero is not given a gift." The old lady nodded with a smile.
The man in white threw the yellow flag back to the stage. He laughed and disappeared immediately.
Ming Qin suddenly realized that this old lady Yin was the famous mother of ancient history. No wonder so many strange people came to celebrate her birthday.
…………
There are some people in ancient history who are not emperors and generals, but can provide assistance when talents are in a poor state. They are kind by nature and have a keen eye to recognize people. Even if they have not even left their names, they can always arouse the admiration of ordinary people.
The floating mother and the fisherman can be regarded as the representative of such figures.
Mother Piao was one of the women who washed silk wool by the river. When Huoyin Hou was young, everyone was disgusted with people and could not survive. Finally, he ran to the river to fish. Mother Piao gave him his food. Marquis Huaiyin said: "I will give you my best in the future, and I will definitely repay you heavily." Mother Piao said: "I just pity you, how can I expect you to repay you?"
The Marquis of Huaiyin was a military genius who was not born in the middle of Xia. When he talked about military affairs with Emperor Gaozu, he said that you could only control 100,000, and the more I was, the better. Emperor Gaozu retorted, "Why did you catch me if you can fight so much?" Huaiyin said, "Although you can't lead troops, you are good generals. This is something that ordinary people can't do."
From this passage, we can see that Huaiyin has different views on military affairs, that is, the difference in tactics and strategies. Being good at generals is actually Huaiyin’s own self-indulgence, which is to praise Emperor Gaozu.
The reason why Huaiyin is a strategist is that he may not have outstanding strengths in destroying the strong and trapping the battle. After all, his personality is flawed. Emperor Gaozu rushed into the military camp twice and seized the military talisman. Zhou Yafu's Xiliu Camp even had to walk slowly. If he was to train troops, he might not be as good as Zhou Yafu.
Huaiyin is a person who is appreciated and regretful to future generations. When he died, even Emperor Gaozu regretted his talent, thus leaving behind the bad reputation of killing heroes.
In fact, when it comes to killing the heroic officials, Emperor Gaozu was far from being named. The only one he wanted to kill Fan Kuai, but Chen Ping failed to kill because of his sudden death. As for Han Xin, Peng Yue, Ying Bu, they all wanted to separatist power and slaughter the world. It can be said that it was an unstable factor in the peace of the world. Killing them was a continuation of the feudal division at the end of the Qin Dynasty. To put it bluntly, their actions were all for their own glory and wealth. When this desire was difficult to satisfy, they took risks one after another. How could they be considered as a hero of the Han Dynasty?
In addition to being a military genius, Huaiyin is a mess. He met a benefactor like a plum mother when he was poor and a villain like a butcher like a Huaiyin. This is a story without a tail. Maybe that person is a scoundrel in the market. Huaiyin was humiliated by the situation.
How did Huaiyin do it? After killing Qin and destroying Xiang, he was named King of Chu, gave his mother a daughter, and summoned the young man in the middle to be named Lieutenant. At that time, a professor also claimed that Huaiyin treated the insulting people and things that were insulting him as a life trial, which was exactly the same as some gratitude and hurtful remarks. It was really the heart of the despicable husband's hometown wish.
Don’t believe in him because of his great reputation in Huaiyin. It seems that all behaviors are reasonable and worthy of praise. Didn’t Confucius say? ‘How can you repay kindness with kindness with kindness? Repay grudges with straightness and repay kindness with kindness’.
It is not completely impossible to repay grievances with kindness. First, you must have the wisdom to understand others. If you repay grievances with kindness with kindness, you should also put it as a high-ranking official like a lieutenant. Do you expect him to be grateful? Or do you expect him to help him in times of crisis.
The young man in the middle of the slaughter said nothing about him. "Although you grew up, you like to dance swords and love you, and you are afraid of love." If you don't distinguish between grudges, not only will the enemies look down on you, but the benefactor will also feel ashamed.
There was also a pavilion leader who was good at Huaiyin at first, but later he was tired of him for some reason. Every time he was eating, he started dinner early, and when he arrived in Huaiyin, he would clean the pot. As a result, the two of them had a good relationship. Huaiyin gave him a hundred coins and said that you were not kind and did not endure the morality.
However, Huaiyin was not so kind. He had a good relationship with Xiang Ji's general Zhong Limei. After Xiang Ji was defeated and died, Zhong Limei was desperate and defected to him. Later, someone sued Huaiyin for rebellion. In order to clear the suspicion, he killed Zhong Limei and gave it to Emperor Gaozu.
If it weren't for the chaos in the world, Huaiyin would be forced to be a county magistrate. In contrast, how did Han Anguo and Li Guang do the villain who humiliated them? Han and Li were also famous generals of the Western Han Dynasty. Han Anguo was thrown into prison for committing crimes. The prisoner Tian Jia humiliated him, and Han said: "Will the ashes be rekindled?" Tian Jia said: "If it burns, it will be destroyed." Later, Han Anguo really got back on his feet and was afraid that he would be scared. Han said that if you don't come, I'll kill your whole family. He forced this person to come and apologize. Of course, Han Anguo did not have the same knowledge as him.
Li Guang was also convicted and exiled to be a commoner. He liked to shoot tigers in the mountains. When he came back late one day, he passed by Baling Pavilion. The lieutenant got drunk. He stopped him and refused to leave. The follower said, "This is General Li in the past." The lieutenant said arrogantly: "Even the generals who are currently working can't pass, let alone those who are dismissed?" Li Guang slept outside the pavilion for no reason. Later, Li Guangqiuqiuqiuqiu and summoned Balingwei to the army to kill him.
This is really different. Han Anguo is calm and skilled. He can be both civil and military, so his methods of handling are gentler. Li Guang was angry and forced to kill Ba Lingwei. Some people criticized Li Guang for saying that he only defeated the war and abused lynching. Of course, Ba Lingwei would not be punished until he died, but did he really strictly enforce the law?
It is probably illegal to get drunk when on duty first. Moreover, the law prohibits night travel, which is nothing more than to prevent thieves. Since Li Guang has all his own identity, he is obviously not a thief. As a law enforcement officer, if he knows the subtle intention of the law, he will be able to communicate with him. Even if he strictly abides by the law, he will not be arrogant when facing the heroes of the country.
After hearing what he said, he knew that he had only the present in his heart, so it was a distinction. If he was a current general, he would not have time to kneel down and lick him? Most of the evil officials in the world were such people, without death sentences or good deeds. He wore an official slander to bully the enemy and pretended to be a tiger. Although Li Guang was a general, he could not punish him through legal channels. From a legal perspective, it was of course an illegal act. Although Emperor Wu of Han did not impose sanctions, it was definitely discussed. From an emotional perspective, killing a few evil officials was really a slight flash of Mount Tai, which would only make the world clear and clear.
This is a matter of repaying grievances with righteousness, and of course there are also many things in history that repaying grievances with virtue. For example, the story of King Zhuang of Chu.
When King Zhuang of Chu gave a banquet to the ministers, the candle suddenly disappeared, and a minister pulled the beauty's clothes. The beauty angrily pulled off his hat tassel and asked King Zhuang to punish him. King Zhuang said: It is inevitable that everyone will get drunk and have such a thing. He also asked the ministers to fold the hat tassels down and take care of the man's face. Later, he fought with Jin State, and this man bravely moved forward and established a special merit.
Therefore, Han Xin is really not so reasonable. Even if he is not as vengeful as Fa Zheng, it can be said that he is inappropriate rewards and punishments. After the slaughter of the middle-aged man, it is difficult to have a good impact on promoting a person with mischaracter in a high position.
In fact, when a person is unsuccessful, it is very common to endure the anger and lose shame. After finally making a breakthrough, he dares not punish evil and promote good, and avenge his enemies. This is unbearable for the people. Therefore, a person has clear grudges and grudges, and may have mixed praises and criticisms. For example, Li Guang, if he is confused in his work, he will be ridiculed by those who know him.
When the mother of Piao was desperate in Huaiyin, she was reluctant to part with her. This kind of kindness cannot be measured by a daughter. Shouldn’t you serve her mother as a mother in Huaiyin? As for the young man in the slaughter, killing her with one knife like Li Guang, and removing scabies, even if she despises her like Han Anguo, she would be fine. However, she would be promoted to the people and get good rewards for evil, which is too heartless to the people. The famous professor at the time was complacent and was even more stupid.
…………
However, the merits are free in people's hearts. Although Huaiyin is confused, there are many people who admire the Mother of the Piao in the Three Realms. For example, Li Taibai and Su Dongpo all have poems to praise.
For thousands of years, there have been many wise ministers in the world who have accumulated virtue and righteousness and uphold justice and have been named gods. However, there seems to be no certain way to stay or leave these people. Some gods have been sent by God through tribulations. This situation is easier to be promoted after returning.
Some people die for decades and can only be rehabilitated after hundreds of years, but the will of heaven are different. The so-called "the people below are easy to abuse, but the heaven is hard to deceive". However, gods need to pay incense and sacrifice. If ordinary people do not build temples and sacrifices, the heaven may not be able to pay salaries. Some temples are destroyed, and gods will have to retire and find another way out.
Piaomu also has temple sacrifices, and she is considered an idle god, but she has a good reputation. There are many literati and poets in the fairy world, and strange people visit her. Although she keeps her duty, she knows many great people. Sometimes it may be very useful to say something.
This is also the fundamental purpose of Qingyi Society's case of revealing the Wuzhu coins at her birthday party.
Yan Shunying's father was the Marshal Tianfan of the Xihe Magistrate's Mansion. He learned military tactics from the Marquis of Huaiyin. Because of this origin, Yan Shunying and Piao's mother were quite familiar with each other. This time, he came to Yujing to celebrate his birthday due to the incident.
Yan Qiuqing saw Mingqin's changing parrot's beautiful feathers, and fell on her shoulders and didn't scream or make a fuss, and felt very obedient. She felt amazement and stroked his feathers and smiled, "Where did you come from? Why did you run to me?"
Mingqin smiled secretly and said nonsense: "Sister, there are no more beautiful things here than you. Why not be my wife."
Yan Qiuqing said in surprise: "Don't parrots only know how to learn to speak? How can you say so much?"
"This stupid bird is a bit weird. Qing'er, you should be careful." Yan Shunying watched coldly, secretly using his sky eyes to observe the spiritual wisdom of the parrot.
Buddhism divides eye consciousness into five levels, including the naked eye, the heavenly eye, the wisdom eye, the Dharma eye, and the Buddha eye.
The sky eye can illuminate the universe and identify monsters. It also has the five elements. Yan Shunying has a golden sky eye, and her eyebrows are winding like golden threads. When used, it can burst into golden light, which is invincible. (To be continued.)
