Chapter 7 Confidant

Zhang Cang laughed lewdly and continued, "There is a concubine under her. She has a very beautiful appearance. And if she is satisfied when she is happy, she will make a very pleasant sound. Therefore, when she is with her concubine, if she cannot hear the sound of nature, she will know that she is not doing well, so she will naturally have to do something else. But if the concubine is already in a better place and the sound is lingering around her, why should she stop and change her posture?"

The maid had a slightly improved view of Zhang Cang, but now she directly regarded him as a vulgar and shameless person. She decided to be scolded by the young master and would not pour him a drop of wine.

Zhang Cang didn't know that he had no chance to have a good wine, and was still talking: "Now the reform and power of the country is at its peak, and it is the time to gradually become better. As long as you persist, you will be able to dominate the world... That, dominate the world."

Silent.

Zhang Cang originally thought that his humorous metaphor could win a lot of money, but unexpectedly everyone was staring at him indifferently, as if he was looking at a dead person.

Zhang Cang was sweating coldly and woke up most of the time. Then he realized that he had lost some bottles of yellow soup and was no longer responsible. He was crazy and actually compared Dazhao to a concubine who was happy in front of the crown prince of Dazhao in public...

Fusu was the first person in the hall to react. In fact, he was not angry at the metaphor made by Zhang Cang, but found it quite interesting.

In this Warring States Period when Confucius said that "rituals collapsed and music were broken" but was actually strict in the rules, such a person with a breakdown in thinking really made people feel novel and fun.

But he didn't care, but he couldn't guarantee whether these words would cause anger to the person's ears. So he shouted to the left and right guards: "Take this madman for me and send it to the Tingwei Office to sober him!"

Zhang Cang's words were a little bitched, but a little bitched, and a little bitched, which was a disgrace to the national system.

Moreover, in front of so many people, Fusu cannot be regarded as nothing has happened. Originally, Dazhao had a law that "no double responsibility for the law", which means that he only committed one crime and could not be sentenced twice. As long as he was sentenced to one sentence, he would be punished once, and the matter would be exposed.

However, the Dazhao law strictly prohibited lynching. The last prince who used lynching almost died outside. The prince's tutor, the prince's tutor, was also cut off his nose.

The prince cannot punish him privately, let alone the eldest son, even if he wants to punish Zhang Cang first, he will not be able to attack him even if he is not good enough.

Because of Zhang Cang's fuss, the banquet had to be abandoned. Everyone bowed to Fusu in turn and left in a hurry. Zhang Cang, who had made a bad thing, naturally had many arrangements in his heart, and he also sneered at the other few Confucian disciples who looked devastated.

Fusu sent someone to escort Zhang Cang to the Tingwei, only telling him that he "didn't drink in front of the young master and was disrespectful." The Tingwei didn't ask much, so he opened a single room for him to live in.

Zhang Cang looked sad, but he didn't dare to say much. He could only close the broken mouth of the old lotus, and follow the prison guard in front of him into his luxurious single room.

The tragic situation he saw along the way made Zhang Cang tremble in his heart, and he even wanted to slap himself in two big mouths.

The teacher has taught himself many times that he should take care of this unrestrained mouth, why did he just not listen?

Because it was brought directly from the eldest son's mansion, and although Zhang Cang had some stains on his cuffs, he could also tell that he was a scholar. The jailer did not know the details of this man and the extent of offending Fusu, and did not bring him clamps and shackles.

Therefore, if you really want to beat yourself up, you can still do it.

But Zhang Cang thought about it and felt it hurt too much, so he still held it back.

Fusu will put Zhang Cang’s affairs behind his mind for the time being, and he still has a lot to do.

Besides, letting Zhang Cang stay in Tingwei for a few days will also be beneficial to him, at least let him control his mouth more.

It's okay to fall into my hands this time, but if one day in front of Ying Zheng... ten heads are not enough to cut.

"Young Master, someone asked for a visit. He claimed to be the son of the Prime Minister, Li Qing."

When my old man came to report, it was Li Si's son who came.

After accepting the teacher's advice, Fusu sent someone to pass on the message to the Li family and asked Li Qing to come to see him today.

The other party did not meet at the banquet when the banquet was gathered, but had just left the banquet and there might be some scholars in front of their house to pay their respects before they had dispersed. What does it mean?

Li Si is too scheming. Fusu thinks that his experience is not enough to fight with this old fox. Now he has to think more about the little fox.

The heart was moved, but it did not affect his response to the old man: "I asked him to come and took him to the study."

The old man took the order and went to arrange someone to guide the way. He called the maid to go to the study to clean up and stayed to serve.

Fusu calmed down again and finished reading a post "Han Feizi", before someone changed his clothes and went to see Li Xiaofu.

"Qing, I've seen the young master." Li Qing, who had just entered the study and was kneeling to read a book, hurriedly stood up and saluted Fusu.

Li Qingbai has a whisper and is about twenty years old and is dressed in a simple manner. Only the jade ring on his waist shows his outstanding life experience of the eldest son of the prime minister.

Fusu looked closely and saw that what Li Qing had just read was "Laozi", a Taoist classic. Fusu did not understand the meaning and did not take it to heart. He just asked Li Qing to sit back and sit in the top of his head.

Li Qing was also a little confused about Fusu's attitude.

According to what I learned, Fusu was a student of Han Fei and had a disagreement with his father. Logically speaking, even if the two sides were not in the hostile camp, the relationship was not very good.

But he would not believe it if Fusu would be bad for him.

After all, there was no deep hatred on both sides, but it was just a bit of a circle of involvement. Besides, a dignified young man would have to deal with his father, and what is the point of targeting a young man who has not yet become an official?

Seeing that Li Qing was a little cramped, Fusu thought to himself that this little fox was indeed not very good at Taoism, and was not as energetic as Li Si, and could not hold back his anger. Although he was determined to be late for a moment and wanted to make a name for himself, he was only left for a while and felt a little uneasy.

If Li Qing knew Fusu’s thoughts, he would definitely complain that he was wronged.

Where did he get the courage to fight with the eldest son?

The reason why I came after the banquet was purely because of traffic jams.

Besides, he didn't know that the banquet ended so quickly. Logically, he was only a moment late, and it was the most enthusiastic time of the banquet.

"It's actually nothing to do when I come to you."

When Li Qing heard Fusu's words, he quickly sat upright and listened carefully, "I just learned the name of the young master of the Li family from the teacher. I just wanted to meet him, so I don't have to think too much."

"Vei." Li Qing tried his best to keep his face calm, but his heart was boiling.

How can you not think about it? Han Fei is so impressed by all means?

Since you don’t want me to think too much, why bother to say “no need to think too much” in one go?

Fusu really has nothing else to mean, he is just a little curious about why this young man who has no record of history books can ask the teacher to give him a special mouth and call him to see what is extraordinary.

After saying this, the two fell into silence. Fusu was a little embarrassed and could only stare at Li Qing to see what he had to say.

Li Qing was stared at Fusu's strange (actually embarrassing) gaze, and felt that the other party was unfathomable. He wanted to escape but was afraid that the other party would be angry. It was really a terrible feeling.

"You seem to have a lot of knowledge about Taoism?" Fusu began to make no choice.

Li Qing thought the test was coming, so he didn't dare to neglect it, so he answered carefully: "Young Master, I dare not say that I'm studying it, I'm just a little bit of digging in it."

"Don't have to be so reserved, just be more casual."

"only."

"What is the best sentence in "Laozi"?"

Li Qing instantly memorized the full text of the Tao Te Ching in his mind, not knowing what trap the other party wanted to set for himself. After thinking for a long time, he gave an answer that he would not be wrong in consciously: "The best good is like water."

Fusu almost lost his forehead.

Laozi (also known as the Tao Te Ching) says, "The best good is like water. Water is good at benefiting all things without fighting, and is in the way that people hate, so it is almost in the Tao. Live in a good place, have a good heart, benevolent with good benevolence, speak well, be righteous and govern, do good things well, and move good times. Only when you don't fight, there is no fault."

It means that only by not competing for profit with others can one be self-protection.

It’s indeed a good thing to say, but are you Li’s family members the ones who are not arguing?

But Fusu didn't know that Li Qing was indeed different from his father. Although he was of the same talent, he was humble and polite, which made Han Fei, who had always been disgusted with the same brother, enjoyed this child very well and even recommended him to Fusu.

Yes, Fusu thought the teacher just mentioned it casually, but this was a solemn recommendation for the ancients who were hiding their words and doing things, especially for Han Fei's arrogant and arrogant attitude.

One didn't know it was recommended by the teacher, the other didn't know that he was valued by others, and the two of them fell into a deadlock after saying it.

He wanted to send him back, but this man entered the mansion in front of many scholars. Now that he is leaving so quickly, there will inevitably be rumors that Fusu and Li Si are incompatible. This is harmful to Fusu and not beneficial, and it is not easy to drive people away.

Li Qing also wanted to leave quickly at this time, but he was not sure about the other party's intentions and personality, and was worried that he would anger the scheming eldest son.

Fusu, who was "scheming like a sea of ​​scheming", had a headache at this time and didn't know what to do with Li Si's eldest son.

After a moment of silence, Fusu remembered something and asked, "How is your archery technique?"

"It's OK."

"In this way, you can accompany me in the hunting next spring."

Li Qing did not dare to refuse: "Vei."

In this case, it should not be considered as being too slow to treat him. The teacher could explain it. Fusu was quite content with his actions.

At this time, the old man said that lunch was ready, so Fusu ignored Li Qing's refusal and insisted on letting him go back after using the meal.

As soon as he got home, Li Qing was called to the study by his father.

Li Si stroked his beard and asked, "Young Master asked you "I"? How did you reply?"

Li Qing bowed and replied: "Yes. I will reply to 'The Supreme Goodness is Like Water'."

"Hmm." Li Si didn't know if it was possible, "Then what?"

"The young master asked me to be with him when I was hunting next spring. I couldn't refuse, but I didn't understand what I meant and was about to ask my father."

Without thinking much, Li Si understood Fusu's "deep meaning" and smiled deep: "This is the eldest son who wants to take the opportunity to show the world that his position as crown prince is supported by me, the prime minister."

After thinking about it, Li Qingwei also understood: "Spring Shou is a good opportunity for the young master to consolidate the position of the crown prince. If I were following at that time, I would naturally be regarded as my father's intention to move closer to the young master."

"good."

"So should I find a way to refuse?"

Li Si glanced at the son and smiled and said, "How to refuse. You didn't refuse immediately at that time, but now you have agreed, but after returning home, do you want me to break up completely with the eldest son?"

Li Qing wiped the cold sweat that did not exist on his head, "What should I do?"

"Since you have agreed, just as he wishes."

"Don't sir oppose Fusu's succession?"

"Why should I object?"

"Han Feizi..."

"What do you think I have to do with Han Fei?"

"Senior brothers and political enemies?"

Li Si laughed heartily, "It's wrong. Han Fei and I are close friends."
