Chapter 117 Fame
Time passed slowly in the dull days. Before the Welcoming Team of the Wei clan in Hedong had crossed the river, they received advice from He Bai, He Jin and Yuan Shao. With He Bai's official position and reputation, the Wei clan could not be afraid, but General He Jin and Yuan Shao, the role model of scholars, had to let Wei clan seriously consider it.
It was not because Cai was unwilling to marry a daughter, but because Cai Yong suddenly had a severe illness and was bedridden. As the eldest daughter, Cai Zhaoji wanted to fulfill her filial piety, and hoped that the marriage would last three years. At this time, the world was great, but the filial piety was the greatest. Wei family must not let others fulfill their filial piety.
However, Wei also suffered from Wei's family. Wei Zhongdao's health has always been poor, and now there are signs of deterioration. Wei is eager to win Cai Zhaoji, one is to fight against joy, hoping to use the great joy to fight Wei Zhongdao's body. The other is that if Wei Zhongdao is unpredictable, he hopes that Cai Zhaoji can leave one son and half of his daughter for Wei Zhongdao.
Although she could do this, she could not compare to Cai Yong's daughter. Moreover, as Cai Yong's grandson or granddaughter, her future prospects will definitely be limitless. However, since she has received advice from He Jin and Yuan Shao, the Wei family cannot dare to offend the two at the same time, and the wedding team can only return to Anyi, Hedong, unhappy.
After He Bai left this, his life was very free. Taizhong Doctor had no specific political affairs. Except for the morning court, he just wandered around the general's mansion every day and moved freely in the afternoon. He either called friends to have a banquet, socialize everywhere, or went to the West Garden, or went to Situ's mansion for inquiries. He practiced basic gun skills in the evening, read Cai Yong's history at home, helped him borrow books, or taught the music of the two daughters of Cai and Diao Chan's later generations. In a blink of an eye, it was mid-April.
After nearly a month of socializing, He Bai has become familiar with most celebrities in history. As for the relationship, it depends on others' perception of He Bai. Anyway, He Bai feels average and few people can communicate with each other. The main reason is that they are not the ones He Bai deliberately wins over. As long as they invest less effort, the relationship will naturally become average.
Even Xun You, because this person has always been taciturn and has no other hobbies, it is difficult for He Bai to find a topic that interests him. In the end, he went to Xun Mansion several times, and the two of them were often speechless and very embarrassed, and then they went less. However, he would send two kilograms of high-alcohol wine every day, and even if the relationship was average, He Bai still had a thought.
The ones who can be considered good relationships are Huang Zu and Chun Yu Qiong. Chun Yu Qiong is a good person by nature and likes to make do with He Bai. He Bai can understand. But Huang Zu is sometimes noble and arrogant, sometimes with the spring breeze blowing on his face, sometimes with unpredictable wind, sometimes with wandering wind, and it is difficult to grasp his personality. He Bai originally wanted to have a general relationship with him, but he didn't expect that Huang Zu would have a deep relationship with He Bai. From time to time, he would come to He Mansion to fight for the autumn wind, or stay in the mansion, and he would not treat himself as an outsider at all. He Bai had no choice but to let him go.
Because He Bai's official position was quite high, after publicity, he became famous and loved to raise scholars and be loyal to wealth, and was widely spread to the Sili County counties. More and more people came to join him. However, most of them were guest-occupied people. Not long after a few people arrived, they looked at He Bai and worshiped him as the main person, and had the heart to support him. The talents of these people are average, so they can be considered as the talent of governing a county. He was about 40 years old and had no intention of going to court, so he joined He Bai's command. He Bai used it as a scholar in the palace.
There are also many people seeking help from money. As long as it is reasonable, He Bai will give it together, and do not write IOUs or collect usury. Whether to repay the money depends on personal integrity. This is not something that can be dared in later generations, but in the late Han Dynasty when paying attention to Xinnuo, 80% of people will keep their promises.
After a few incidents, people in Luoyang believed that He Bai was a truly righteous person, and there were endless people coming to ask for help. Fortunately, there were only some honest people who borrowed small amounts of money, but they did not exceed 100,000 yuan. They borrowed five million yuan in one month, but everyone knew He Bai's name of benevolence and righteousness.
In addition, all officials loved the clear white wine in He Bai's mansion, and compared He Bai to Du Kang's saint. Not only did he name it "Tianming Wine" or "He Bai Liquor", but there were also people who wanted to make wine. However, He Bai didn't care about the weight of a thousand gold and did not sell wine. He just opened the door to welcome guests to drink, and he would never sell it.
Therefore, although the reputation of liquor is famous, it is unavailable on the market. Through such hungry publicity, liquor is not only not weak, but also gained the same time as He Bai's hospitality reputation. In the mouths of the people, it has become a wine that only wise men can taste. It is rumored that the market has already reached a level of gold and stone, which is a hundred times the profit of food, but there is still no wine to sell.
Later, even Emperor Ling of Han heard about it and ordered the eunuch to come and ask for it. He Bai was forced to give out ten stones due to the power of Emperor Ling of Han. However, he was appointed as tribute wine by Emperor Ling of Han, who was happy at first sight. He had to pay thirty stones to Emperor Ling of Han every month to repay the political donations he had not paid when He Bai was awarded the title of "Sunting Wine". Therefore, in a short time, He Bai's reputation with "Tianming Wine" resounded throughout the country, and He Bai also officially became the name of "Jiu Zong" like "Du Kang".
As for Zheng Bu's summoning loyal and righteous people, because Zheng Bu was relatively cautious and searched for a month, he only found thirty righteous people. This is definitely not an ordinary loyal and righteous person, but a loyal and righteous person who is truly loyal, keeps his promises, commits life and death, and has a reputation. As long as He Bai is willing, even if he lets them commit suicide, it is only a matter of one sentence.
He Bai was overjoyed and was treated with all the good wine and meat. Tianming had enough wine. Each person gave him 500,000 yuan in support of his family at one time. If he had any needs in the future, he could just speak up. He asked Luo Pei to teach them about literature and Han Rong to teach them martial arts. When He Bai had time in the future, he would teach them how to be a good spy.
At noon that day, the sun suddenly darkened, and the people in Luoyang City shouted in horror, and the whole city became boiling. Some beat the gongs and some beat the basin, and it seemed that if they could not drive away the Tiangou who swallowed the scorching sun without doing so. The farce lasted for more than ten minutes, and even in He Bai's mansion, some were running around in panic. Until everyone saw He Bai sitting calmly and enjoying the total solar eclipse in the yard, everyone slowly calmed down.
Luo Pei bowed and asked, "Lord, you are knowledgeable and talented, and you don't know what good or bad luck is this solar eclipse?"
He Bai shook his head and smiled, "Although the solar eclipse is a rare scene in the world, it does not mean any good or bad. Just like dark clouds covering the sun, what good or bad can it mean?"
Luo Pei was stunned. Seeing the sun gradually appearing, he woke up and said, "It turns out that I am waiting for Yiye to be blinded. Lord, I wonder who this blinded person is?"
He Bai smiled and said, "Hang high in the sky, round, and looks like the sun, what else can I do?"
Luo Peiyi slapped his forehead and laughed, saying, "I don't expect that the world is deceived by the moon for countless years, hahaha..." After that, he explained to everyone. Everyone seemed to understand but wanted to ask He Bai, and suddenly heard the masterpiece of the Dengwen drum in the palace city. This was the message that the emperor wanted to summon all the ministers into the palace. Then everyone let He Bai go. He Bai quickly changed into court clothes and drove to the palace gate.
The side door of Nangong was wide open, and no one stopped him, allowing all officials to pour in. By the time He Bai entered the Deyang Palace, all officials had almost arrived. The officials were full of grace, as if something bad happened. Emperor Ling of Han sat high on the throne, holding his forehead and frowned.
It was not until all officials arrived that Emperor Ling of Han asked, "Where is the Grand Historian? Today is the day when the demon dog eats, what good or bad is the master? Where is the military disaster? Or who has lost his virtue?"
An official in his sixties came out to worship and said, "The servants dare not. The Taizhong doctor He Tianming has seen a lot of knowledge about this disaster and strange thing, so he can call him out to answer the questions."
There were a lot of chuckles among the officials. Since He Bai came, although the civil and military officials in the court were surprised by the disasters and strange things, no one dared to explain the reason easily. Because since that day, no one dared to ask the emperor for the crimes and the crimes. Therefore, the debate on disasters and strange things that had been on the ground, but at this time, he was silent, just waiting for He Bai to come to explain.
He Bai was tidying his clothes, stepped out of the court, and bowed to Emperor Ling of Han, saying, "The sun eclipse is the trajectory of the bright moon in the sky and the sun. It is the effect of a leaf blocking the eyes and dark clouds blocking the sun. If there is no master, good or bad luck, you don't have to worry about your emperor."
As he said that He Bai told Emperor Ling of Han and all the officials that the solar eclipse were from the great point. Then everyone suddenly realized that this was the case. Sometimes the sun and the moon were at the same time, and it was because their trajectories gradually overlap. Sometimes two suns appeared in the sky, but the temperature did not rise on the earth, because the moon reflected the sunlight.
After the explanation of the solar eclipse, Emperor Ling of Han suddenly felt a little worried, and he looked at the officials with some fun. The officials had no reason to submit a memorial to the emperor for taking advantage of the disaster and strange things, and they couldn't help but feel a little unhappy with He Bai. However, now He Bai's reputation is gaining popularity, with the emperor's attention and the general He Jin's inexplicable help, the officials are helpless.
After thinking about it, Emperor Ling of Han asked again: "A few years ago, a woman gave birth to a child with two heads and four arms, and a woman gave birth to a child with both ends and two ends. How can this be solved?"
The strange phenomena of heaven and earth can be verified by time, but this strange thing does not belong to the strange phenomena of heaven and earth. All officials think that why they don’t know. Because people often say that the most difficult thing is the left and right of the fetus in their abdomen. During King Zhou of Shang, there was a demon queen named Dayi bet with King Zhou to guess the direction of the fetus of pregnant women. King Zhou did not believe it, so he committed suicide and verified the fetus, and was verified by the world as a tyrant.
This is different from the strange phenomena of heaven and earth, which can be proved by time. No matter how broad the knowledge or knowledge is, it cannot verify the fetus. If this can be proved, then wouldn’t it be even known how Nuwa created humans in the legend. That can be regarded as a talent for immortals.
This is the cause of egg mutation, but the ancients didn't know it, but it was difficult to answer. Moreover, most of these mutations are difficult to survive for a long time, and they are very pitiful. He Bai thought about it and then organized his words and said: "There are two reasons. One is that men and women who are very close to each other get married, such as cousins, uncles and nephews, cousins and nephews, etc., because the blood relationship is too close, the fetus has a change in the abdomen. Therefore, if there are common ancestors in the next generations of great-grandfathers, they cannot get married within three generations, and it is not as good as after three generations."
"Another reason is that some of the ancestors are unscrupulous, and victims are reborn in revenge. Therefore, the fetus has two heads, four arms, and two heads are in a common sense. Such fetus usually have resentment. As long as parents and family members give selfless care, their resentment can be eliminated. When the resentment is dissolved, it is time for them to die and be reborn. If parents and family members continue to be unscrupulous and abandon them and kill them, the resentment will be aggravated. At that time, it will not be a warning to the strange fetus, but a blood hatred, which may lead to the disaster of a prodigal family."
