Chapter 008 Wearing it without picking it up
After Yang Yi bid farewell to Han, he walked down the mountain alone. The pine waves on the roadside looked down the mountain. The West Lake was full of blue waves, making people feel very comfortable. When crossing a pavilion on the hillside, Yang Yi suddenly heard a string of piano sounds coming out!
The sound of the piano and the pine waves echoed in Zhongshan and flowed over Pinghu, empty and distant. After listening carefully, the sound of the piano released many complex emotions, such as sighing that the years were wasted, and the talent was not met. At the same time, it also brought a ray of open smell, telling its own height and purity, like the green lotus coming out of the mud, and the big roc overlooking the earth, Yang Yi couldn't help but listen and his steps slowed down.[]
He never thought that a person could release such complex emotions with the sound of the piano and arouse so much mutual conspiracy among others. It was like a general who heard the horn of charge, like a traveler in the middle of the night heard the sad sound of the lonely geese. Yang Yijing listened for a long time and couldn't help but chant softly:
The orchid is fragrant and fragrant.
If you don’t pick it, you will be so sad.
What is the reason for today's reign?
I go all the way, day by year.
Snow and frost trade, shepherd and wheat flour are lush.
If my son is not hurt, I will not be so impressed.
The shepherd's wheat is lush and the shepherd's wheat is lush.
A gentleman's injury is a gentleman's guardian.
The person who played the piano in the pavilion thought that he also heard Yang Yi's chant. The sound of the piano seemed to be infected by the poems he chanted, and gradually became vast. It was like a river rushing through the obstacles of the mountain gorge, and it leaked thousands of miles, pouring into the sea in a vast way, like a wave surging up and down, and the clear light was free from worries and obstacles!
The poem Yang Yi recited has a great origin. Confucius traveled around the countries and hoped that some princes would adopt his doctrine to govern the country, but none of them succeeded. On the way back to Lu from Wei State, he passed by Yin Valley and saw the orchids in the valley blooming quietly. So he couldn't help but sigh: the fragrance of orchids is getting clearer and clearer, and he is the king of flowers, but now he can only join the grass, just like a wise man who is not at the right time and can only be with his despised husband.
Confucius stopped the car, played the piano and sang, expressing his depressed mood that was about to grow old!
The poem that Yang Yi just recited was a song written by Han Yu in the Tang Dynasty who developed a similar state of mind to Confucius when he was exiled. However, overall, his realm was one level higher than Confucius' original poem.
In Han Yu's poem, "If you don't pick on it, why should Yu Lan be hurt?" The two sentences of "A gentleman's injury, a gentleman's preservation." What does this mean is that if a person is talented but not appreciated and cannot be appreciated, what damage will it cause to his talent and character? Even if a gentleman is in an unfavorable environment, he will still maintain his ambitions and moral integrity!
When the sound of the piano in the pavilion gradually spread in the mountains and forests, Yang Yi also walked to the edge of the pavilion and saw an old man in his fifties in the pavilion with solemn hair and thin face. He sat cross-legged in front of the guqin in a simple casual dress, with a wine pot next to him, and behind him was a boy who was accompanying the piano. Most of the other people accompanied the piano with tea, but the old man was special. From the slight flushing on his face, it can be seen that he was drinking.
"It's rare to meet someone who is close to you. Why don't you stop and come in and have a drink together!"
The old man raised his glass to invite him. Because of the sound of his piano, Yang Yi temporarily put aside the common things in his heart and went to the pavilion to salute: "I dare not be a gentleman and a soulmate, but Li Yi is polite after he was born in the late stage!"
"Li Yi! Hahaha! My friend is Li Yi who is so angry that Zhu Guangting was in Hangzhou School? Come on! Then I would like to invite my friend to have a drink together, please sit down!"
Seeing that the old man was cheerful, Yang Yi was not polite, so he stood up and sat down opposite him. The boy came up to pour wine for Yang Yi. The mountain breeze came, and the fragrance of wine was everywhere. When the wine glass was filled, Yang Yi gently put the big sleeve of his right hand with his left hand, raised his glass and said, "I am so arrogant, sir, please!"
After Yang Yi finished speaking, he dried up the wine. The old man was stunned at first, then laughed again, picked up his wine glass and drank it, and then said, "It's interesting! It's interesting! I didn't ask who I am? I was crazy! Zhu Guangting was so angry that it was not unfair! Hahaha!"
"We are both people who have fallen into the world. Why do we have to know each other when we meet each other? I will tell you my name only out of respect for the elders. As for whether the teacher is willing to give advice, it doesn't matter. After drinking together today, who knows whether you will be lucky to meet again in the future?"
While Yang Yi said, he grabbed the wine pot and filled the old man and his cups again, which was very tempting to be the guest.
The old man didn't care and asked with a smile: "So why are you? I am a man who has fallen into the world?"
"The sound of the piano! Although the sound of the piano is more open, it is still mixed with the depressed and unsuccessful meaning of Confucius when he returned to Lu. If it were not for the fallen people in the world, how could this kind of charm be fully integrated into the sound of the piano?
King Wen Mengxiong, the Wei River is vast. Jiang Taigong was eighty years old at that time, and he could still fish on the edge of the Wei River with a straight hook. Isn’t this open-minded mind worth learning from us? So, I dared to advise Mr. Wen, sometimes, Mengxiong, may as well let go of his heart and sit and watch the waves die!”
"Okay! Hahaha! I don't expect that when I listen to a song of the piano, I'm just like watching patterns on my palms. It's rare to be a soulmate! I, Zhang Dun, have been ups and downs for most of my life, and I'm not as open-minded as a boy by the West Lake. I'm ashamed! Please drink another cup together, I'm taught!"
Yang Yi raised his glass and almost choked halfway through drinking because he was suddenly shocked by the word Zhang Dun.
This person is actually Zhang Dun, the famous Zhang Dun!
When Yang Yi was arguing with Zhu Guangting in the provincial school, he mentioned that during the Xining period of Emperor Shenzong, the Battle of Hehuang in the northwest of the Song Dynasty and the army was simultaneously employed against the Jinghu barbarians in the south. At this time, the Liao Kingdom was threatened by the Song Dynasty. In order not to start a war on three sides, Wang Anshi had to ced the land north of Daizhou to the Liao Kingdom. At that time, it was Zhang Dun who led the army to fight against the Jinghu barbarians.
Zhang Dun was the illegitimate son of Zhang Yu and his wet nurse. Jiayou passed the imperial examination in the second year, but his nephew Zhang Heng passed the imperial examination. Although his nephew was ten years older than him, Zhang Dun still felt disgraceful and was not even as good as his nephew. How could this be done? So he left and waited for the next exam to take the imperial examination again and then gave up!
It can be said that since the imperial examinations, there is only this one, and there is no branch. Even if others are ranked alongside Sun Shan’s name, they will become officials. Who is as tough as this man?
This man has a straightforward and resolute personality, with clear likes and dislikes. He has always been either white or black in his dealings, and cannot tolerate gray areas.
Zhang Dun once studied with Su Shi. He passed a deep stream in Heishui Valley. Zhang Dun passed a single-plank bridge and wrote a poem on the cliff. Su Shi was so scared that his legs were weak and did not dare to cross the single-plank bridge. He sighed to Zhang Dun: "Zihou (Zhang Dun's character) will surely kill people!"
Su Shi was right, Zhang Dun was indeed able to kill people. The barbarians on the mountainous areas of Jinghu South Road repeatedly invaded the prefecture and failed to appease them for hundreds of years. During the Xining period, Zhang Dun led his troops to kill all the way from the south bank of Dongting Lake, and went straight to the Dali Kingdom, killing all the barbarians to the terrified news and obediently accepting the rule of the court.
More importantly, this person was once the main general of the reformist faction. After Wang Anshi was dismissed from prime minister, Zhang Dun gradually took office and became one of the pillars of the reformist faction. Unfortunately, Emperor Shenzong died young, the new king Zhao Xu was young, and the Empress Dowager was in charge of the rule behind the curtain and valued the conservative ministers such as Sima Guang. Zhang Dun and his group of reformist factions were all demoted!
"Young people are so arrogant! How lucky today is to meet Mr. Zhang from the sixteen southwest states in one fell swoop! Please give me a prayer to you!" After learning that this person was Zhang Dun, Yang Yi stood up and greeted him again!
Zhang Dun smiled at the sky, then reached out and brushed the guqin, and a string of clanging sounds echoed among the mountains.
"Why do you need to do this? What kind of bachelor's talk about? My current official position is Dongxiao Palace Promotion! Hahaha! Dongxiao Palace Promotion!"
Yang Yi was also very moved after hearing this. Dongxiao Palace is not a palace hall, but a Taoist temple outside Hangzhou City. Zhang Dun's official position was to manage a Taoist temple, and his power was not as big as a captain in Qiantang County.
No wonder Zhang Dun expressed the kind of depression and unsuccessfulness in the sound of the piano just now. Grand Secretary Zhang, who killed all over the southwest and no one dared to rebel, was demoted to Hangzhou to manage a Taoist temple! Yang Yi really doubted whether the old party in the court invented the magnifying glass in advance to find such a small official position to "enjoy" for Zhang Dun.
Yang Yi sat down again, except for the bowing ceremony, his attitude did not change much after learning about Zhang Dun's identity.
If you really want to trace the root of the root, Zhang Dun’s original identity was just an illegitimate child! Just like us now, it’s an illegitimate child!
After Yang Yi sat down, he smiled faintly: "Thunder is the war drum and lightning is the flag, and the wind and clouds meet. Some people are a sharp blade that can overcome all obstacles. Even if they are put in their bags, they will sooner or later break out of the bag. However, the magic weapon often has to wait for a moment of the wind and clouds meet."
Zhang Dun couldn't help but feel very interesting and smiled, "So my friend thinks, when will it be the time for the storm?"
"Live at night and watch the sky! The purple light is bright and the sky rises up. When the wind and clouds meet, it will not be far away!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
