Chapter 74 Gongsun Shu
Xu Zheng, Lian Shu, and Da Yin are all titles of first-level officials in Xinchao County and are synonymous with the prefect of the Han Dynasty, but the fifth relationship has not yet understood the difference between the three.
I thought it was called different titles, but Gongsun Shu had no marquis and Bo's identity, but he also called him Shuzheng. It was so strange. I don't know how Wang Mang stipulated it.
Gongsun Shu's courtesy name is Ziyang, and is from Maoling. He is an old acquaintance Ma Yuan and Wan Xiutong County. He recognized his fellow villagers with Di Wulun and others as soon as he came. Compared to Shuyin, he sounded friendly to Guanzhong dialect.
After bowing to Yang Xiong's tomb three times, Gongsun Shu lamented: "After I entered Shu and became an official, I often heard people chanting Ziyun's poems and poems, and I loved them very much. Ziyun was a talented person in the world, but he was very sorry that he died in the capital without getting any great use."
"Why stay in Chang'an for a long time? It's better to return to your hometown earlier. I will definitely hire him to sacrificially as our county, and the three elders will support you with a generous salary!"
Gongsun Shu turned around and saw the fifth reunion holding the mourning banner. He held his hand directly. He looked as if he was asking under his leadership, and said sadly: "Don't be sad. In the past, Qian Hong died in Shu, and his blood was hidden for three years, and turned into blue. Ziyun's soul should always be kept in Shu and learn from the local scholars!"
After saying that, he also gave him a hundred pieces of horses to tie up as his money to Yang Xiong.
This is a very heavy gift. With this remark, Hou Ba and Wang Long were moved so much that they felt that Gongsun Shu was a good county monarch who was respectful to the wise and humble.
Even the fifth reunion has a good impression of Gongsun Shu. After all, Yang Xiong has been greeting him in his life, so it is not easy to meet someone who appreciates him. Since Jiang Zuo is so righteous, there is no need to worry about the teacher’s affairs.
Everyone had to build a shed in front of the tomb to live in for a few days, and they could only leave after the 70 to 49 days of mourning period, because they had been walking on the road for too long, and it was the day after tomorrow.
Gongsun Shu then invited them to hold the funeral and join the CCP in Pi County and then talk slowly.
Wu Lun and others wanted to decline politely, but although Huan Tan disagreed with Gongsun Shu's words and deeds, when he made a warm invitation, his eyes lit up and he agreed to Di Wu Lun.
"In the more than a month, I have accompanied the three filial puppies to eat vegetarian bean soup? I have lost all my weight? Gongsun Zuzheng, you have to have a more generous banquet!"
...
The funeral is basically over three days later? Although Di Wulun and others are still wearing plain clothes, they can go to other people's houses to attend meetings? But they still have to avoid drinking and meat.
"This Gongsun Ziyang is so popular."
When he just arrived at the Pixian County Temple? Huan Tan smiled? He made this statement.
When Wu Lun looked at it, it was true that if Gongsun Shu was rushing from his capital Linqiong City the day before yesterday when he heard the news of Yang Xiong's burial, he hurriedly arrived from his capital Linqiong City? Then today? He brought a whole set of ceremonial guards of 2,000 stones.
But in front of the county temple gate, four infantrymen opened the road, drove the axe and chariots in front of the road, promoted the carriages to promote their power, and the five officials under the gate followed them. Four cavalry officials and guards were guarding. In addition, there were also children and soldiers following them. It was really a baggage covering the sun, and chariots and chariots were all over the road? In total, there were a hundred people.
In contrast to the outside show, Gongsun Shu held this small banquet in a very simple and low-key manner? Although various ritual instruments are arranged neatly and meticulously, the food that can be placed on everyone's desks is just simple corn rice and local homemade bean paste. Unfortunately, there is no chili with color and black.
Gongsun Shu was also wearing a plain white dress today, holding a cup of soup instead of wine and saying, "The etiquette says, "Do not drink wine or eat meat on the day of walking and walking. I know that you should mourn Ziyun Gong, and there are taboos in living and eating. Although several days have passed, my heart is still sad, so I will eat vegetarian food with you!"
"Thank you Gongsun Zuzheng!"
Finally, Gongsun Shu stroked his beard and regretted everyone: "The land in Shu is fertile, with fertile rivers and fertile fields. People eat rice and fish, and there is no worries about the bad year. The fish in the mountains, forests, gardens, melons and fruits are ripe for the four periods, and they are all indifferent."
"And there are also many delicacies here, just like what Ziyungong said in "Shudu Fu"..."
Gongsun Shu closed his eyes and recited a paragraph in it in full: "The sweetness of sweetness, the soup of peony, the rice-fried pig, the single bamboo and the lonely croaker."
Wang Long was quite moved and continued: "The owl was flawed, the mountain was marrow, the water was swim-flowing, the bee-pig-eyed geese..."
Hou Ba also continued the next sentence: "After the mountain cranes are connected, the spring lambs and autumn rats are used, the meat is eaten, the tortoise is eaten, and the fields are grown with red and red."
Then the two looked at the fifth reunion, is this the dragon coming?
Fortunately, I walked in Shu these days. In order to deepen my understanding of this place, I have read it several times. After pondering for a moment, I said: "The body is not enough to work, five meats and seven dishes, hazy and fishy smell, and those who can practice the spirit and nourish blood will all be completely cured."
Perhaps because of these words touching the heart, Wang Long's face was bursting with tears and wiped it with his clothes and said, "The Master is a good person. When I first read this tribute, I have been greedy for food from Shu. I went south this time but I have no good fortune. What a pity."
Who is not? Di Wulun shook his head and sighed. He hasn't eaten meat for a month.
Gongsun Shu said, "Even if the disciples of Zhongni mourned for the saints, they would only last three years. If they stayed in Shu for a long time, wouldn't they taste it?"
The fifth reunification heard that Gongsun Zuzheng was intending to recruit them, and he was immediately happy. Isn’t it just to refuse? He is too familiar with it.
But before Gongsun Shu could make another love for talent, Huan Tan, the guy, dissatisfied, patted the desk a few times: "Zhu Zhen, it's okay for children to eat vegetarian food, can I eat this thing too?"
Huan Tan has always been frivolous and doesn't care about the occasion. He was a little embarrassed during the meal. Gongsun Shu clapped his palms and asked someone to bring the promised delicacies.
The food was made of roast chicken and cooked duck. Huan Junshan picked up a piece with chopsticks and chewed it slowly in front of everyone's hungry eyes. After tasting it, he said straight: "It's so sweet!"
Gongsun Shu said: "The Shu people are good at taste and think that the taste of pig chickens is light, so the Shu people like to eat honey. This is the best flavor, but people from other counties may not be used to eating it."
This surprised the fifth reunion. It turned out that before Sichuan encountered peppers, they were sweet-loving in ancient times. All dishes had to be added to sugar, and the sweet party was ecstatic!
What is added is not the common malt sugar in Guanzhong, but the sugar cane juice from southern Shu is directly added as seasoning.
Huan Tan was not picky and was very happy to eat. For a moment, the fragrance suddenly filled the hall. Di Wulun and others were chewing the dry Douban in their mouths, but they had to watch Huan Tan feasting shamelessly.
In the more than a month, they were used to Huan Tan's unrestrained body. Instead, Gongsun Shu was a little disgusted with it and said obscurely: "I heard that Doctor Junshan and Ziyun Gong are kind to each other. Now his body has just been buried, so Junshan has a good appetite."
Huan Tan sucked his oily hand and laughed: "When Gongsun Zu was worried, would he want me to steal the ground with his head and cry all day long?"
Gongsun Shu shook his head: "It doesn't have to be like this, but I heard that a gentleman is mourning, and he doesn't feel sweet when eating delicious food, he doesn't feel happy when listening to music, and he doesn't feel comfortable living at home. Now, Junshan eats meat and wears brocade, how can you do it?"
This is Confucius' criticism of his disciple Zaiyu for questioning the funeral, but Huan Tan stopped and said, "Gongsun Ziyang, how can you know my heart's wounds?"
He stood up and sighed: "Ziyun once said that those who live will die; those who have a beginning will have an end. The way of nature is. Aging will end. For Ziyun, who has not succeeded in his life, it is not pain, but liberation."
"Now Ziyun is sleeping in the huge room, so he should be happy. If I cry out at once, I really don't understand him!"
"I am sad and happy. Only by drinking and eating overeating can I heal my wounds. Only by singing in a pan and singing can I forget it. It made Gongsun Zuzheng laugh at me."
After saying that, Huan Tan picked up the clean lacquer plate. He, a great musician, sat on the ground and beat him on the spot, and laughed in his singing: "When Zhongni left Lu, the wife was delayed and Zhou Mai, and finally returned to the old capital, why both Xiangyuan and Taose!"
Gongsun Shu, who focused on external etiquette and details, could not understand Huan Tan's crazy behavior, and some of them could not do anything about him. He didn't say anything but speculated, but just ignored Huan Tan. When he did not exist, he turned to the fifth reunion three, continued the topic just now, and asked about their plans, and his words were quite denied.
Hou Ba was a little moved and said to himself: "I plan to build a house in front of the tomb, to mourn the Master for three years, and to sort out his remaining statements."
"It's a filial pupil! If you have disciples like this, your virtue is comparable to that of Zhongni!" Gongsun Shu held his hand and agreed to Hou Ba's three years of food, clothing, daily life.
Wang Longze said: "Long is a scholar in the young mansion. He is willing to follow his senior brother to mourn for three months and then return to the capital to continue his post." He actually wanted to walk all the mountains and rivers that Master Yang Xiong had walked through, find his state of mind when he wrote a poem, deepen his understanding of the teacher, and maybe he could have a sudden inspiration and write a good article that could be passed down from generation to generation.
It seems that Wang Long can't stay for a long time. Gongsun Shu said it's a pity, but his eyes have long been looking at the fifth reunion, and he is determined to win this young man.
"I returned to the capital last year and returned to Maoling. I also heard about the name of Diwu Lang from Xiaoyi, a neighboring county. I also knew that Boyu and Ma Wenyuan explained innocent things. Boyu didn't know yet? Ma Yuan and I were not only in the same county, but also in the same village. My family pushed the door out, and the opposite was Ma's house. We have been kind to each other since we were young."
There is still such a friendship? The fifth reunion remembered that the servant did say that the opposite of the Ma family was the Gongsun Mansion, and it was also a high-ranking family.
Wu Lun bowed: "Thank you to Gongsun Zu's good wishes, but..."
He told him about his letter to join the army, which was earlier than Wang Long and had to return to Chang'an before the first month of the year.
"In this way, I will fight with Boyu, how regretful it is." Gongsun Shu called it a pity.
At this time, Huan Tan had enough food and sang, and drank some wine. He was tired of Gongsun Shu's long speech and had already started yawning.
Wu Lun stood up and said goodbye. Gongsun Shu sent several people out of the county temple. When he remembered something, he pulled Wu Lun to the side and whispered: "Since Ma Wenyuan ran away with Na Wan Xiu, he has never heard of him. Can Boyu know where he went?"
Seeing that the fifth reunion had doubts, Gongsun Shu explained with a smile: "I am kind to Wenyuan, and my brother is similar to his daughter. He wants to ask someone to do something to attack the Ke, but he doesn't know where Wenyuan is, so this matter cannot be done for a long time."
Fake is just a matchmaker to propose marriage, and how many daughters Ma Yuan has?
one!
Wu Lun was slightly stunned and looked at Gongsun Shu. The younger brother Gongsun Hui, who had been with him today, was originally happy to see him and had a great conversation with him at the table, but now when he looked at him again, he actually felt that this guy had a bad head and a bad eye, which was so ugly!
Gongsun Shu said again: "If Boyu knew where Wenyuan was, I would definitely go and invite Wenyuan quietly to settle down in Shu. Once he arrived, he would shake hands and be happy as if he had been alive!"
There are a few more Ma Yuan in the world, and they are also one!
Gongsun Shu was Yang Xiong who had been paying homage to the past life, recruiting his three brothers and brothers. Now he wants to include Ma Yuan as well, and he has a great ambition.
So the fifth reunion bowed to Gongsun Shu in awe: "I will not hide it from Gongsun Zuzheng. I have only met Ma Wenyuan twice and have no contact since then. I have no idea where he is going!"
...
The next morning, Di Wulun went over to see if Huan Tan woke up, but he ran into Huan Tan who was wiping tears silently, but after being knocked out by Di Wulun, he burst into laughter and pretended to be picking his eyes.
But Wu Lun had already seen the tears on his pillow. Could it be that Huan Tan's usual freedom is pretending to be free and easy, and when he was quiet at night, he was still secretly sad when he thought of his confidante Yang Xiong's death?
The fifth reunion did not say anything, and only talked to Huan Tan about yesterday's small banquet.
"Doctor Junshan thought, how about Gongsun Shu this person?"
Huan Tan thought for a while and said, "Gongsun Shu seems to be humble and corporal, but as far as I know, he actually has a harsh and detailed nature. He observes small things. From the pomp, he can see that he likes to decorate the borders and pretend to be famous things."
"A word, hypocrisy."
Wu Lun smiled and said, "Then am I hypocritical too? Doctor Junshan has always thought so."
"That's right."
Huan Tan said straightforwardly: "But Boyu's hypocrisy also has a little innocent sincerity. For example, nine parts of water and one part of honey. You may feel it is too light for the first taste, but the more you drink it, the more you taste it, and you will never get tired of it..."
Hey, what a broken metaphor? The fifth reunion is immediately far away from Huan Tan.
"And Gongsun Shu gives people the feeling that nine parts honey and one part water."
"A gentleman's friendship is as light as water, and a villain's friendship is as sweet as honey. You may love it sweetly at first taste, but after a long time, you will feel disgusting."
After saying this, Huan Tan spit on the ground with a mouthful of saliva. It turned out that the dignified doctor Zhangle had this quality!
"What do Boyu think?"
Wu Lun smiled and said, "What I value with Doctor Junshan is a little bit admired and admired Gongsun Shu!"
...
