Chapter 45: Thousand Miles of River Flowing to the East
"In fact, there is no better way. Love is unknown, and it goes deeper. The feeling between men and women is the most unreasonable and trajectory in the world. The Book of Rites says, 'Eat, men and women, the great desires of human beings exist.' It can be seen that even the saints believe that emotions cannot be explained clearly, and they come from human nature and heart."
Xu You's voice was calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter, but every word could touch the softest part of his heart, saying: "I just hope that one day in the future, whether a man or a woman, he can communicate openly without secular constraints. Men can choose their wives freely. Of course, women can also choose their son-in-law freely. The parents' orders and matchmakers' words are more of a reference than a rule that must be followed. Before getting married, the two can get along for a period of time, understand each other, know each other's character, hobbies, habits and living habits, and truly be in love and know each other, and then they can hold their hands and grow old with them..."
Through the green silk cloth barrier, Yuan Qingqi's expression could not be seen, but Shui Xi, who had been standing beside him, quietly raised her head and stared at Xu You's side face. After a moment of bowing her head, there was a faint smile on the corner of her lips.
"Qilang's argument is really shocking. The poem says, 'It is a man who carries a slate; it is a woman who carries a tiles'. Men and women are born with high and low status. Cao Jia wrote the "Female Commandment" to teach women how to be cautious and attentive, and follow the song. If you follow what Qilang said, wouldn't it be that the heaven and earth are spreading righteousness and the human relationships are all out of order?"
Cao Jia is Ban Zhao, the sister of Ban Gu, who is knowledgeable and talented. The first historical book "Han Shu" was written by her after Ban Gu's death. Xu You smiled and said, "Sanniang is speaking from a Confucian standpoint again... In fact, this is not shocking. Taishi Gong wrote "Records of the Grand Historian" and cherished words like gold. Why do you describe the love between Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun in a long paragraph? The root of this is not just a matter of speaking up for the unfairness that a woman has suffered in her marriage..."
"Qilang looked down on Zhuo Wenjun just now, and he spoke for her again at this time, which shows that he is not a person with a firm stand..."
Xu You laughed and said, "You are unwilling to suffer any loss..." Of course, there is no way to tell her that this is to look at problems using materialist historical dialectics. The main reason why the ancients liked to go to extremes was that there were flaws in historical view and they did not know how to look at problems in two.
Yuan Qingqi also smiled and said leisurely: "I wonder if the scene described by Qilang can be realized..."
"As long as time goes by, it will definitely come true. But in your life, you probably won't have the chance to see it." Xu You said apologetically: "It's funny. These are just random thoughts I have nothing to do on my daily life. I have never talked about them. Today, I don't know why, and I can't vomit for a while. If there is something abrupt, please forgive me!"
After the barrier was set, it took a long time to hear Yuan Qingqi sigh: "The love is unknown, and it goes deeper... I can hear this sentence today, and it is no longer worth the trip. As for the matter of King Hengyang, since Qilang is unwilling to intervene, A Yuan will no longer force others to do anything. When we are leaving, there is another thing to explain to Qilang...Shuiyi!"
Xu You was stunned. The maid who designed to hurt him slowly walked out from behind the cloth barrier. His usual smart and cunning eyes were mixed with fear and anxiety. He bent down to the ground and said tremblingly: "I'm young and misunderstood my husband. Because of the rumors, I misunderstood my husband, so I planned the past eve without authorization. I knew that my crime was unforgivable and did not dare to ask my husband for forgiveness. But if there was any punishment, the maid was willing to accept it!"
Xu You always paid attention to repaying kindness with virtue and repaying grievances with righteousness. If he hadn't been alert enough that night, he would have probably fallen a big frustration. At first, he thought it was involved in Yuan Qingqi, so he didn't even mention it to Yuan Jie. However, after the conversation just now, he knew that she would not be the messenger. It was not that she could not do it, but that with her talent, if she really wanted to dig a hole for herself, she would never reveal so many flaws, nor would she be so technical!
But then again, sometimes beating a dog depends on the owner. With his current identity, even if he has given up his face and insists on calculating a maid, Yuan Qingqi is willing to give face and punish Shui Yi severely. So what can he do? Apart from breathing, there is no other benefit, and it may even backfire, leaving people with the bad impression of being stingy and narrow.
Weighing the pros and cons and then taking the minority of the two evils is his only way to surround the financial world. Since the benefits are not proportional to the cost, it is better to smile generously and skip this matter and not mention it, assuming that it has not happened.
"I have forgotten what happened the night before!"
Shui Yi was shivering all over and didn't know how to answer, but he heard Yuan Qingqi say, "Get up, since Qilang will not pursue the matter anymore, let's spare you this time!"
"No! Thank you, Mr. Lang!"
Shui Yi stood up and stood beside Shui Xi. The same green silk and silk are all green, and the same jade is blooming like a calla lily, with a natural charm, and it has endless charm. Xu You looked at the two people and said with a sigh: "If you can't see it, you can't see it, you can't hear it, you can't hear it, you can't hear it, you can't fight it, you can't be called Wei. It turns out that their names are the source!"
This is the saying in the "Tao Te Ching". If it weren't for the fact that Yuan Qingqi and Tianshidao could not be seen from the surface, Xu You should have noticed it when he heard the names of these two people at the beginning!
Yuan Qingqi did not comment, smiled gently, and said, "Deng Tao is already waiting at the pier. May your husband go to Qiantang and be safe all the way! In addition, I gave Qilang a gift. When you leave, Shui Xi will deliver it to the boat. I also want to think about A Yuan's thin face, so don't refuse."
After saying goodbye, Xu You walked down from Fengxu Pavilion and waited for Zuo Yu and the Autumnal Equinox, not far from the dam, to welcome him. The Autumnal Equinox looked at Xu You's face worriedly and asked, "Xiaolang, nothing is wrong, why have you been there for so long?"
"It's okay, I've had a few chats!"
Xu You turned his head and looked at Qing Ling, who was shaking in the wind in the Fengxu Pavilion from afar, but he was thinking of another thing:
Shui Yi, Shui Xi, Yi Wuse, Xi Wushen, then there is another person named Shui Wei under Yuan Qingqi's seat?
Micro, known as invisible!
For no reason, the shadow of a young man in white appeared in Xu You's mind. He walked past him, but he didn't even change his breathing in any way. Even every step he took was measured by a ruler.
One step is five feet, no more or less!
"Shui Yi, today you will leave Yuan's mansion and go to Guanzhong to think about your mistakes. Without my orders, you are not allowed to take a step out of Guanzhong!"
Shui Yi knelt down at Bu Zhu, tears as big as beans appeared in his eyes, and he cried: "Girl..." {
"You are absent by nature and have always been bold. I don't want to restrain your original intention, so I let you make trouble. I didn't expect that you would use Lu Shuang to frame Xu You the night before, but I know that this matter has reached my second brother's ears. He will go back to Jinling tonight and ask me for someone at that time. I will give it to you, or not?"
Shui Yi wiped his tears, raised his head, showed a stubborn look, and said, "I shouldn't have treated Xu Lang like that. I admit my mistake and accept the punishment! But Lu Shuang... Girl, if you don't save her, she will die... Besides, I promised her and I will definitely ask the girl to save her..."
"The world is complicated and there are so many troubles, but life is not short. If you waste all your time on this matter, what day can you reach the spirit and see the nature? Forget it, get up, Mizuki, what you told you last night, go do it now..."
Shui Xi responded respectfully, hesitated for a moment, and said, "If Xu Langjun refuses..."
"This boy is as lush as a thousand feet of pine, and he is a pillar of the country. He is a scheming choice. As long as he sends someone, he may have doubts, but he will definitely not refuse!"
Shui Xi turned around and left the pavilion, while Shui Yi Ze still raised his head pitifully and looked at the Buzha without saying a word.
"This is the last time. If you dare to act boldly again in the future, you will definitely forgive me!"
Shui Yi stuck out his tongue, reached out to pat his chest, made a look of fear, and said, "No!"
The dock suddenly burst into surprise, and an extremely huge figure jumped up from the crowd, roared and said, "Xu You, today is your death!"
The spear in his hand shot out with a tricky angle and arrived in an instant, making people have no chance to react. With a few bangs, the giant man fell from the air, and the spear returned to his hand, and then jumped a few times, falling into the river and disappeared.
"I've killed someone, killed someone!"
The crowded crowd of people at the pier spread out in panic, revealing the round open space in the middle. Xu You lay on the ground, with blood as big as a fist printed between his chest and abdomen, and then slowly spread until it spread all over his body.
The autumnal equinox knelt aside and cried bitterly. Zuo Qi picked up Xu You's body with a look of grief and anger and rushed towards the city.
Shui Yi witnessed the whole process, returned to the pavilion, and whispered: "The trick to escape has been accomplished. I don't know where the blood Xu Langjun found, it looks the same as it is. Girl, do you think this method is really good?"
"After he killed Feiyao, he secretly ordered Zuo Qi to inform all his troops that he would not spread the matter. When he returned to Jinling, Zuo Qi placed the entire 100-man team in a corner of the camp, and all the staff were not allowed to go out. If it weren't for Deng Tao, we would have almost kept it in the dark. Today, we would do such a play in front of everyone. When the news reached Shen's ears, they would send someone to verify it clearly. The other person's ship would probably have arrived in Qiantang long ago. Do you think his method would work, or wouldn't it work?"
At the third minute of the afternoon, the weather became gloomy. A ox cart drove out of Jinling and walked along the winding land route for more than ten miles. Before the sky turned completely dark, it arrived at a remote place by the river. A light boat was parked on the shore. Xu You and his men got off the ox cart. As soon as they got on the boat, Shui Xi walked out of the cabin and smiled and said, "Mr. Lang, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Xu You remembered the gift Yuan Qingqi said, and was not surprised how Shuixi found it. If Yuan could not find someone in Jinling, that would be the real joke. He said, "Sanniang is so polite. What gift should you bother with your big car?"
Mizuki patted his hands gently, and a woman in plain clothes walked out from behind, standing there pretty, with her face as charming as the moon, her eyes shining brightly, reflecting the sunset in the twilight, which was really unspeakable and elegant.
Xu You stayed at the bow of the boat for a while and never said anything again!
