Chapter 101: The Turn of the Year

Cai Mingji asked strangely: "He Yilang, did you say that your family is no longer in this world? You also said that your mind is the world and you are separated from Lingzun too early. Isn't that...what is going on?"

"In the early years of the Yuan Dynasty, my family ancestor practiced Taoism in Wuling Mountains... After returning, he wrote "The Book of Peach Blossom Spring"" He Bai smiled, changed Tao Yuanming's "The Book of Peach Blossom Spring" to the age of characters, and then pinched the ending and recited it.

He said, "After my great-grandfather entered the Peach Blossom Land, he still had the idea of ​​becoming an immortal and becoming a Taoist, so he could not stay in the Peach Blossom Land. After I left home, when I returned home again, I saw that my family had disappeared, leaving only the word "Peach Blossom Land". I thought they had entered the depths of the Peach Blossom Land. I also tried to go to Wulingyuan to find my family, but I could never enter the Peach Blossom Land. I thought I had no such opportunity with the Peach Blossom Land. I said before that my father and family were not in this world, but that they had already entered the Peach Blossom Land and were not in this world."

"It turns out that this world is not a place to escape into the Peach Blossom Land." Cai Yong murmured, "I didn't expect that there is a great place for living in the hidden world, such as the Peach Blossom Land!'The land is flat and the houses are pretty, with fertile fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry and bamboo. The fields are in the fields and the roads are connected, and the chickens and dogs are heard. The travels and plants are all like the Qin people. The yellow hair is hanging down, and they are happy.' Alas, Wulingyuan has a barbarian market, but I have never been there before. I don't know if I, Cai Boji, have this opportunity?"

He Bai smiled and said, "I heard that although the Peach Blossom Land is a great place to live in the hidden world, it is difficult to communicate with the world. Unless you completely want to escape from the world, or have great opportunities, you can enter. People like Mr. Bo Ji who are born with family, country and the world, who are afraid they cannot enter the Peach Blossom Land."

"That's right, it's right..." Cai Yong sighed. If he hadn't had his own heart, how could he offend the Ten Constables, and was exiled to Shuofang, and wandered to Lingnan and Wu, and he could not live in peace for twelve years.

Seeing that Cai Yong's emotions were in decline, He Bai didn't know the reason in his heart. If he could not escape into the false Peach Blossom Land, he would persuade him verbally. So He Bai smiled and said, "Although the Peach Blossom Land is good, the land is too small. Although he is not afraid of human harm, he is afraid of natural disasters. Therefore, I do not think it is a real place of happiness. Just like Wen Jing, the world of the Han Dynasty during the Mingzhang period was no worse than the Peach Blossom Land. Therefore, if Mr. Bo Yi admires the Peach Blossom Land, there is no need."

Cai Yong nodded and praised: "During the time of Emperor Wen and Jing, he ruled the country and advocated the inaction of Huang and Lao. At that time, it was a peaceful world that everyone in the world enjoyed. I am old, and I don't know if there is still a time to see the peaceful world again."

He Bai frowned, and the following was a split and chaotic world that had lasted for nearly a hundred years. Although there was a brief unification of the Western Jin Dynasty and the Five Barbarians who had been connected for hundreds of years, it was not until Emperor Wen of Sui. If you want to truly enjoy peace, you may have to go to Emperor Taizong of Tang. Maybe you have to be in this world, from ten years to ten years, and from ten years to the next, there will be a peaceful world? Maybe.

Seeing that his father and He Bai were both frowning deeply, and were worried about the chaotic world, Cai Mingji shouted loudly: "He Yilang said that he knew all the astronomy, mountains, rivers, geography, humanities and history, animals and plants, mineral craftsmanship, military calligraphy, martial arts strategy, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I don't know anything else, but everyone in my family is good at music. He Yilang dares to discuss the way of music with my family."

He Bai suddenly had a headache after hearing this. Cai Yong and Cai Wenji were palace-level figures. He dared to compete with them at these pounds. Wait, when did he say he had to compare his knowledge and talent? He Bai glanced at the proud Cai Mingji and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I have always said that I have learned too much, but I am not good at everything. I just understand it briefly. When did I understand it? Now I want to take Mr. Bo Ji as my teacher in Japan. Before, the teacher was just considering the knowledge he was still in the lower class. How could it be a competition?"

Before Cai Mingji could refute, Cai Yong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I am the only one who is good at Confucianism. However, Tianming has a good family tradition, which is far from what I can compare with. When Tianming becomes a disciple, please forgive me for not agreeing. However, Tianming wants to learn Confucianism, because I am much older and read a lot, I may give a brief introduction. I will never call it a teacher."

After thinking about it, Cai Yong said embarrassedly: "Actually, I am very curious about what Tianming learned in his belly, and it means asking for advice from Tianming. How about this? If it involves Confucianism, Tianming can call me "Mr. When asking for advice, I will call me "Mr. If so, I will call me "Mr. When asking for advice, I will call me "Mr.?"

He Bai looked at Cai Yong in shock. What does Cai Yong mean? Calling each other a gentleman? Is he trying to give advice to each other and be friends with him? This... seems... not bad. He just refuses what he should do. So He Bai repeatedly asked to become a disciple of Cai Yong first, but Cai Yong just refused, so He Bai gave up.

Next is the time when He Bai and Cai Yong drink while sitting and discussing the truth. However, they mostly use the form of Cai Yong's inquiry and He Bai's answer. As long as it is not a difficult point in Confucianism, even if it is Huang Lao's theory, He Bai can talk to Cai Yong with him.

There are many novel insights in it, which makes people feel refreshed. However, everything is just a brief discussion, and it just right that He Bai said he was a little bit clear. This made Cai Yong feel like he was caught, and he wanted to go deep into the depths of the Peach Blossom Land to find He Bai's father to understand. It's a pity that the Peach Blossom Land is very easy to enter. Cai Yong wanted to know new knowledge, so he had to hug He Bai on the way.

At first, Cai Yong was asking alone, but later, Cai Wenji and Cai Mingji, who were waiting on the side, also joined in and asked He Bai about his own interests and concerns. When facing the old man Cai Yong alone, He Bai might not be helpless. However, with the phoenix-eyed beauties of Wenji and Mingji, He Bai had to think about his brains and recall his experiences and knowledge in later generations, and try to satisfy their desire for knowledge.

Time to ask for advice was fleeting. Five kilograms of rice wine had already been eaten, and the dishes on the table had already become deserted. He Bai was a little tired, and the three Cai fathers and daughters were still asking for helplessness, which made He Bai quite helpless.

Fortunately, the experienced Cai Yong saw He Bai's fatigue and stopped Wen Ji and Ming Ji's questioning, saying, "Okay, okay, it's getting late. Even if there are many questions, you must wait for Mr. Tianming to rest and wait for the morning tomorrow."

The two women realized that the hour was already half past midnight, so they stuck out their tongues and sued He Bai. Then, Cai Yong strongly invited He Bai to rest in Cai's mansion tonight. Although the He Mansion was not far away, there was a curfew in the court and the access control system. It was over 1/3:00, that is, after 8:30 pm, pedestrians were not allowed to wander on the street, let alone that midnight was half past.

Although He Bai is an official, who knows if there is a cruel official like Cao Cao in Luoyang at this time, he beat Cai Yong with a five-color stick. If he resists or brings weapons, he deserves to be beaten to death. He Bai dared not take any risk easily and agreed to Cai Yong's invitation.

After staying in the Cai Mansion's guest room, not long after, Cai Wenji brought a basin of hot water for He Bai to clean it, and said, "Mr. Tianming, there are no other servants at home, so I have to wait for the teacher to wash it."

He Bai dared not let the famous talented woman give her foot wash water. She hurriedly stepped forward to take the basin, but she happened to touch Cai Wenji's slender hand. Cai Wenji felt as if she was electrocuted, her face flushed, and she was impatient, and she almost knocked over the basin.

Although the customs of men and women in the Eastern Han Dynasty were not as precautionary as that of the Song Dynasty, the actions just now might make people suspect that they were intentionally doing bad things. He Bai hurriedly caught the basin and placed it on the ground, and then bowed and apologized sincerely: "I was not intentionally offending me just now, so I would like to forgive me."

Cai Wenji blushed and shook her head and said, "Mr. Tianming is a well-educated man, not a frivolous person. Zhao Ji knew about it and did not blame him. However, he received a lot of teachings from his teacher today, and Zhao Ji has not officially thanked him yet."

After saying that, Cai Wenji bowed deeply and thanked him: "Zhao Ji thanked Mr. Zhao Ji for his teachings and answers to troubleshooting, so that Zhao Ji knew that there were so many unheard knowledge in the world. It's a pity that Zhao Ji was going to marry far away from Hedong in half a month. I can't always listen to your advice from Mr. Zhao Ji, who is very sorry..."

He Bai was stunned. Cai Wenji was about to get married now? Is he marrying Wei Zhongdao from the Wei family in Hedong? That guy died in less than a year and was so tired that Cai Wenji was a widow. He was even accused by the Wei family of Wei for harming Wei Zhongdao and drove him back to Chenliu. He was robbed by Dong Zhuo's Xiliang soldiers and began his eighteen years of living in a foreign land.

I was reading history books before, but it was nothing. At this time, Cai Wenji was standing in front of her, and she was so knowledgeable, elegant, quiet, beautiful and gentle. How could she not feel compassion?

This is not because she has any intentions towards her, but just simply feel compassion. Later generations often say that the college girlfriend is Zhao Min, the graduate girlfriend is Huang Rong, and the doctoral girlfriend is Master Mie Jue. Cai Wenji is knowledgeable and talented, and she is like a little Cai Yong. She is afraid she is better than a doctor and is a doctoral supervisor.

But I am just a person who barely graduated from high school. What kind of language can I have in common? If I really want to treat her as an ordinary concubine, it would be a waste of talent. So I just want to help her simply because I love her.

But what to say is a big problem. You can't say that the person you want to marry is a short-lived ghost, so you shouldn't marry him. Maybe Cai Wenji thought she had bad thoughts towards her. Thinking about the fact that she had cheated on marrying the two daughters of Zhen Jiang and Zhen Se, she immediately had an idea.

"What a small matter, why bother to mention. I will have more teachings from Mr. Boge in the future. Are you going to get married now? This is a good thing, you... Huh? Why is this happening..." He Bai looked at her face, pretending to hesitate, wanting to speak but stopping.

Sure enough, Cai Wenji asked in confusion: "Mr. Tianming, what's wrong with you?"
