Chapter 240 Gai Nie
Lu Bo and Lu Zhong accompanied Lu Bojie to visit a woman who was said to be Bojie's outer chamber. After the military meeting, Lord Xinling took the time to find the Lu brothers with Mr. Zhongyue to learn more. After listening to their introductions,
Suspicions arose in Mr. Zhongyue's mind, but he couldn't find any clues. He just instinctively thought of Xiaonu's mother and son. Although it was a custom in the land of Zheng and Wei to lean on the door and sell smiles, these two people were obviously different - but he couldn't say
Qingdao didn't know what the difference was. He couldn't think of a clue, so he had to continue down and asked, "Where does Bo Jie go?"
Lu Bo said: "Return to the car dealership."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "Where is the difference?"
Lu Bo said: "Outside the south gate."
Mr. Zhongyue said again: "We are separated outside the city, why should we return?"
Lu Bo knew what Mr. Zhongyue asked and replied: "Uncle Tang will send you back home with dignity."
Mr. Zhongyue seemed to have some clues and asked urgently: "There is a big banquet in the city. Where is Uncle Tang?"
Lu Bo said: "I haven't seen him come back, so I want to have dinner at the car dealership."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "The festival..."
Lord Xinling said: "It is better not to make mistakes when carrying food to the front army!"
Mr. Zhongyue said: "Please go to the carriage house to welcome Uncle Tang back." He hurriedly said goodbye and left.
After Lord Xinling watched Mr. Zhongyue leave, he smiled at Er Lu and asked, "What does this woman look like?"
Lu Bo also laughed and said: "A stupid peasant woman, but she is docile."
Lord Xinling said: "It's still possible to conceive two children in succession. Will I have any descendants?"
Lu Zhongdao said: "When we first met, Bo Jie ushered his ministers into the inner room, and his wife, concubines, and children were all present, and they were all greeted with courtesy."
Lord Xinling said: "In this case, his wife must not be a jealous woman. How can she not return home after having a son outside the family?"
Lu Zhongdao: "A woman's heart is very difficult to predict. If she is a close relative or confidant, she may be tolerated; but if she has never known her all her life, it may be difficult to tolerate her."
Lord Xinling said: "It's possible to tolerate it. Sir, please do it yourself. Never mention this matter to others, for fear of inappropriateness."
Erlu said he didn't dare and left.
The embers in the square have almost been cleared, and the unburned dead branches have been returned to the mansion. The big tent in front of the mansion has been completely removed, and the square has basically returned to its former appearance. All the guests have gone back to their houses. Letter
Lord Ling bowed his hands along the way, uttered words of condolences, and walked towards the door of the mansion.
After entering the mansion, none of the gentlemen returned, but they saw the slave's child jumping and having fun under the steps of the East Pavilion. In just two days, he was able to practice what Lord Xinling taught him in a decent manner. Lord Xinling was very happy.
, and taught him a few things in earnest. When the slave came to see him as a gift, Lord Xinling said: "The remaining grain is not enough, but do you need to wrap your belly?"
The little slave said: "It's enough, we both will be full."
Lord Xinling looked at the little slave and felt a heat in his body for no reason. Perhaps he was influenced by Lu Bojie's story, and he couldn't help but lean towards the little slave. The little slave noticed that something was wrong, and was unprepared for the moment, so he rushed towards the little slave in a panic.
He took a step back. At this moment, the child was practicing in full swing. He suddenly exerted force and exhaled: "Ha!" The two of them came to their senses at the same time, their faces flushed. They turned around at the same time to see the child and saw his figure.
Upright and smooth, Lord Xinling couldn't help but shout "Okay". The child was not affected and continued to practice. Lord Xinling said to the slave: "Who is his father? He has no regrets in having a son like this!"
The young slave said: "This young slave treats others with sex, but he only wants a drop of grain. He can do anything for him, so how can he know his father!"
Lord Xinling said: "Based on the shape of the base, can it be obtained?"
The little slave said: "It's hard to know the details."
Lord Xinling said: "Having lost his father, is it okay to take him as a bastard?"
Xiao Nu's whole body was shaken, and he was so panicked that he didn't know what to say. Suddenly he understood, and he knelt down and touched his head to the ground. The child realized that something was wrong here and ran over quickly. Xiao Nu grabbed him and said: "
Your Majesty has made you a concubine, thank you quickly!"
The child didn't know why, but he knew from his mother's words what Lord Xinling wanted to give him, so he knelt down and kowtowed like his mother. Lord Xinling helped the two of them up and bowed three times. Then he said to the child: "Although you are young,
, From now on, you and I will become king and minister. Do you know the meaning of king and minister?"
The child replied: "I know. A scholar will die for a confidant, and a woman will be honored for a confidant. If you encounter me as a scholar of your country, I will repay you as a scholar of my homeland."
Lord Xinling was shocked and said: "Who taught you this?"
The child said: "I heard it from my mother!"
The little slave said: "This is Yu Rang's words. Yu Rang is a chivalrous and lofty man, and everyone in the three Jin Dynasties has heard about it. I also heard his story and taught him day and night!"
Lord Xinling said: "In the past, I also heard about Nie Zheng's affairs from Qing, and now I also hear about Yu Rang's story. How wide your knowledge is!"
The little slave said: "Everyone who comes and goes is a knight, so I have spread it to my ears, aspired to my heart, and admired it very much."
Lord Xinling said: "Your father must be an extraordinary person... What is the name of this son?"
The little slave said: "The child has no father and no tutor, but the son and the mother are worthy of each other."
Lord Xinling said: "This is my name. When I heard about Nie Zheng's affairs, I asked you to be your concubine. Your son is an extraordinary weapon, and he will make great achievements in the future. He is better than Nie Zheng, so he can be named after Nie!"
The little slave bowed and said, "Thank you for giving me your name!" He turned to the child and said, "Your name is Nie. You should aspire to it and behave better than Nie Zheng!"
Lord Xinling said to Gai Nie: "You are right to say, 'A scholar will die for a confidant, and a woman will be honored for a confidant. If you meet me as a scholar of your country, I will repay you as a scholar of my old country.' This is the way of a minister. Today there is a relationship between a monarch and his ministers."
According to the Tao, your ambition is: the king will treat his ministers with courtesy, and the ministers will serve the king with loyalty."
Gai Nie looked at Lord Xinling with a bit of confusion on his face. Lord Xinling explained: "When you treat your ministers, you must treat them as your own subordinates, envoys with the Way, and treat your ministers with virtue. Don't speak anything that is not polite, do nothing that is not the Way, and do nothing that is not virtuous.
When a minister treats his emperor, he must be loyal. The so-called loyal person means that the emperor worries about his ministers' labor, and the emperor humiliates his ministers to death. This is what it means. For example, Yan Zhongzi treated Nie Zheng with courtesy, and Nie Zheng repaid him with death. For example, Yan Zhongzi was humiliated.
Han Puppet. This is what the king humiliates and his ministers die."
Gai Nie said: "I know it. Your Majesty and I are monarchs and ministers. If your Majesty is humiliated, your ministers should repay it with death, according to Nie Zheng's example."
Lord Xinling said: "You are young and have little strength. Even if you die, you will not be able to help the king. You should be determined to study, become civilized and martial, and then assist the king and become the hegemon in the world. This is the ultimate loyalty."
The child said: "Here!"
Lord Xinling asked Nie Ji: "Do you know how to read?"
Nie Ji said: "I don't know."
Lord Xinling said: "I would like to write down my name and express my ambition." He knelt on the ground, picked up a dead branch, and carved the word "Gai Nie" on the sand.
The teacher read it several times and asked Nie Ji to urge Nie Ji to draw. He stood up and remembered that Mr. Zhongyue went to invite Uncle Tang. He was also thinking about Uncle Tang's affairs and felt that there was something fishy in it. He said goodbye to Nie Ji and came out.
Turn to the west city gate and look at Lu's car dealership in the distance.
Lu's Car Shop is not far from the city, and the top of the city tower is as far as the eye can see. Unlike Chen's Car Shop outside the east gate, which was requisitioned as a right-side camp and is very deserted, Lu's Car Shop is very lively because all the coachmen live here.
, people were coming and going in various courtyards, and it was extremely busy. After a long time, Lord Xinling saw a group of people appear on the road, coming towards Huayang City. He quietly got down from the city and waited by the city gate. Soon this
When the pedestrians arrived at the city gate, without waiting for the defenders to check, Lord Xinling bowed in the door and said, "Thank you, gentlemen, for arriving!" The defenders naturally recognized Lord Xinling, and Mr. Zhongyue still held the festival talisman in his hand.
Without further inspection, the group was allowed into the city. With a respectful look on his face, Lord Xinling personally led them to the square to set up a cart, and then to the south gate to transport grain. The cart they had brought in the morning had already parked nearby in the square.
In the surrounding circle. Along the way, Lord Xinling did not show any resentment. On the contrary, he kept expressing his uneasiness about disturbing Zhu Tang. Occasionally he said, "It's troublesome to find Bojie." or "You know what Bojie has?" Uncle Tang replied.
"It's not a lot of work," he said. "You'll know the outer room of Bojie just by asking." In a harmonious atmosphere, these questions seemed cordial, natural, and full of care.
The convoys carrying grain from various operations have already been loading outside the south gate. As soon as the convoys of the former army arrived, Lord Xinling was informed by the gatekeepers who had inspected the festival. Lord Xinling asked Uncle Tang to wait for them to load the trucks, while talking with the soldiers leading the convoy.
Bo Jianli. Although the car only had ten passengers, they were worried about difficulties on the road and wanted to load the car quickly, so the front army sent a hundred people to escort the car. The rear army, which was closer, only sent ten or twenty people.
Uncle Zub was obviously surprised by Lord Xinling's greetings and was a little flattered. He rushed to greet him and seemed a little flustered. Lord Xinling asked kindly about the battle in the past two days and where the troops he led were. Uncle Zub replied, "In the tent."
"Listen to the orders beforehand." Lord Xinling asked what orders were issued? Uncle Zuko replied, "They only informed a certain battalion that the enemy troops were approaching and were ready to fight. The enemy troops retreated and turned to pursuit, and so on. Lord Xinling asked: "Flags and drums.
How can I pass the order to the soldiers again?" Uncle Zu replied: "The flags and drums may not be there, so I have to wait for the soldiers to come back." But he said that it is the duty of the military envoy to pass the order in the fairyland, and he is just waiting in front of the tent.
In order to be ready to go into battle at any time, it is not you who really gives the order.
Lord Xinling asked: "Which camp of the former army suffered so many casualties?"
Uncle Zu replied: "I have heard that there are injuries, but I have not heard that there are losses."
Lord Xinling said: "How do you know this?"
Uncle Zu replied: "If someone is killed in battle, he will be carried to the big tent to examine his body, cut his body, discuss his merits, and reward him. If he is not heard outside the tent, he will not be killed."
Lord Xinling asked again: "What happened to the Qin people?"
Uncle Zu said: "If the head of Qin is beheaded, it must be verified in the tent, so that the merits can be corrected and rewards can be given. If it is not heard outside the tent, no gains will be made."
Lord Xinling asked again: "How many arrows, bows, crossbows and weapons have been lost?"
Uncle Zu said: "If there is anything missing, you should check it in front of the account and make up for it. I haven't heard anything yet."
Lord Xinling said: "The front army is fighting hard, will the sun be eclipsed?"
Uncle Zu said: "Yesterday we fought hard all day and only had one meal a day. Today, all the enemy camps will have two meals, and the rest will have one meal."
Lord Xinling said: "I heard that there may be people in the civilian army who eat rice cakes? Yes? No?"
Zub Bo said: "Maybe you have heard of it, but you have never seen it. Ten chariots of food can only feed three to five thousand people in one day, and half of it for the civilian army. It is possible that we have it."
Lord Xinling said: "How big do you think the civilian army is?"
Zub Bo said: "The civilian army is said to be one hundred thousand, and most of them are in the front army. Although we eliminated the old and weak outside Putian City, there are still more than thirty thousand who dare not do anything."
Lord Xinling said: "When did you join the military service?"
Zu Bo said: "I have been a martial artist for twenty years since I was young, and I have accumulated meritorious service until I reached Zu Bo."
Lord Xinling asked: "What's your name?"
