CHAPTER VIII RESPONSES TO A POST
Since the Xia Dynasty, the ancients have regarded "ritual, music, shooting, imperial, calligraphy, and number" as the "six arts" as an important criterion for measuring whether a person has real talent and knowledge. In the Zhou Dynasty, these "six arts" were even written into the national ceremony "The Book of Zhou" that all the vassal states must follow.
Yan State, who considered himself the continuation of the Zhou Dynasty, even regarded the "Li of Zhou" as supreme. Ji Kang's feudalization was based on the provisions of the "Li of Zhou". Even if King Wu Cheng was cold to Ji Kang, he had to touch his nose and follow this rule, and he would have to enfeoff Ji Kang.
And if a person learns a certain level of the "Six Arts" or knows it to the world, that is, to the point of becoming a "celebrity", you are basically a "wizard". Then congratulations, others will regard you as a guest of honor when you go there.
How high is the status of a "celebrity and wise man"? For example, if you live in a certain vassal state, the monarch of this country will personally invite you to be an official and give you a salary unless you are unwilling to do so. If this monarch does not do this, in the eyes of the world, this is an incompetent monarch and will be ridiculed by the world.
Ji Kang didn't expect that a sketch for his elder brother Ji Xi could cause such a stir; he casually wrote an article he liked in his previous life, which could cause such a response.
Looking at the historian Gao Yang's "obsessed" gaze, then the surprised eyes of everyone.
Ji Kang's father was trembling with excitement. He walked over and touched his son Ji Kang's little face with his hands, feeling his bloodlines connected. This is his son! In the past few years...ah! Between two noble wives and strong wives, life is not easy!
Turning his head, he said guilt to Ji Zhao:
"Zhao Ji, thank you for your hard work in the past few years, I...ah!"
The eyes of Ji Ying next to him had already appeared. Seeing that the prince had turned his head to look at him, he forced a smile and said:
"Thank you for your hard work in my sister. Congratulations to you for training Master Ji Kang so well."
"Thank you sister. Young Master Xi is extremely smart, and thank you sister for your hard work."
Ji Kang and Ji Xi looked at each other again. It was so embarrassing every time!
Ji Kang's father also shook his head and advised:
"Okay, the sons are all around..."
Ji Zhao: "Hmph."
Ji Yingshi: "Hmph."
The prince looked at Ji Kang and could only smile bitterly: "Kang'er, your grandfather has issued an order to let you go to Liaocheng. Liaocheng is far away, so you can't go back to Jidu like your elder brother. What do you need to do for you for your father?"
Ji Kang thought for a while, shook his head and said to his father:
"Father, although the son is young, he does not need to worry about him. But his mother is still in the palace, please..."
"No need, my son is young, I will go to Liaocheng with me. You can live your own life in Jidu!"
Ji Zhao looked at Ji Kang's father and said fiercely.
"Zhao Ji, why are you doing this?"
Ji Kang's father said with a wry smile.
"Sister, let's leave after the New Year. We sisters are together, talking every day, making fun of each other, isn't that good?"
Ji Ying said in a daze.
Ji Kang listened, I was really tired of the prince! Your sisters are the same ancestor! As a result, your juniors are fighting each other, and the women are fighting each other.
But surely: I will always stand on my mother's side.
"Kang'er, if it doesn't work, I'll leave after the New Year. I'll report to your grandfather."
Ji Kang thought for a while, shook his head and said:
"Father, I heard that there are abnormal movements in Donghu and other places. I may send troops next summer, and the people in Liaoning are also a little unstable. Since Liaodong and western Liaoning are now collecting fiefs for their son, my son must go there early to prepare. I think my grandfather probably has this consideration before letting me set off!"
"Since you have decided, go! I won't say much to my father!"
As the historian Gao Yang spoke without hesitation and exaggerated publicity.
Ji Kang's "Theory of the Young Yan Kingdom" finally spread in Ji Palace, and then spread throughout Ji, and spread to the entire Yan Kingdom and the world at a very fast speed.
Ji Palace, Wucheng Palace.
The silk painted by Ji Kang for his elder brother Ji Xi was already placed in front of King Wucheng.
Looking at the lifelike portrait of Ji Xi, then looking at the elegant and neat running script, and then savoring this exciting short article.
King Wucheng turned around and said to Gao Yang, the historian next to him:
"Sure enough, it's good. Good paintings, good writing, and good articles."
"King, this is a national treasure! How many people in Jixia Academy have such talents? Congratulations to the King, my Yan State has another talent and beautiful jade; congratulations to the King, my Yan State royal family, and there are successors."
"Oh! Gao Yang! Is the life of Mr. Ji Kang going to Liaocheng settled?"
"Your Majesty, Prince Ji Kang, will set out in fifteen days."
"Oh, then they have arrived in Liao, but it has entered the twelfth lunar month!"
King Wucheng closed his eyes and a young man with big eyes appeared in his mind.
Alas! If it weren't for the always bullying me and trying to pull me off, the grandson of the old guy Zhao State would be even better. But no matter what, this is also my grandson. It seems that I was a bit biased a few years ago.
"Gao Yang, read "The Young Yan Kingdom" again! I... I love to listen to it."
"promise."
"The red sun rises, and the road is bright; the river flows out and flows into the ocean.
The hidden dragon soars into the abyss, the scales and claws fly; the breasts roar in the valley, and all the beasts are shocked.
The eagle and falcon test their wings, the dust is opened and the strange flowers are first born, and the emperor is the emperor;
The general of the Gan was shining, and it was bright. The sky wore the green sky, and the earth wore the yellow sky.
Even if there are eternal eternals, there are eight wildernesses, the future is like the sea, and the future is long.
How beautiful I am a young man in Yan State, and I will never grow old with heaven!
What a magnificent young man from Yan State, he has no boundaries with his country!"
...
Jidu, Cheng'an Jun Mansion.
"Ahem."
There was a thrilling cough in the study room, and a pair of dry, wrinkled hands were holding a silk handkerchief and taking it away from their mouths.
An anxious voice came from beside him:
"Father, hurry up and see the imperial physician?"
Prime Minister Gongsun Cao glanced at his son Gongsun Zhi and said to Su Qing next to him:
"Oh! It's okay, it's an old problem. Su Qing, is this the full text of "The Young Yan Kingdom" by Gongzi Ji Kang?"
"Yes, Prime Minister, this was copied by me from Mr. Ji Mao, the boss manager of Mr. Kang."
Gongsun Cao took the silk handed over by Su Qing.
After reading it, he stood up and said to Su Qing:
"Remember, your focus in the future is to do the business of the Chamber of Commerce well and discuss with the boss manager Ji Mao if you have any questions. Don't let my husband down, and don't let your son Ji Kang down."
"You go to Liaodi in person and move your family business to Liaodi in Yuyang as soon as possible. See what your son Jikang wants, and try to help."
"Prince, Su Qing understands."
He turned to his son and said:
"Give the young master Ji Kang five hundred sets of weapons and armor each and five hundred gold to congratulate him. The clan members will also transfer to the fief Yuyang as soon as possible."
"You guys go down."
"promise."
After his son Gongsun Zhi and Chamber of Commerce President Su Qing left, Gongsun Cao said:
"What a beautiful young man in Yan State, I will never grow old with heaven! What a magnificent young man in Yan State, I will never have boundaries with the country! What a beautiful young man in Yan State, I will never get to know the country! What a young man Ji Kang!"
"Ahem!"
After Gongsun Cao took the silk from his mouth again, he looked at the blood on the silk. He shook his head slowly and said to himself:
"Xian King Zhao, you told the old minister that you should lead us to make Yan State powerful and dominate the world. But... But you left too early, too early! After your son came to power, he made the sky angry and resentful, and the snow in June made the great situation in Yan State ruined the once-in-one. You, a bastard son, were killed by the old minister. Old minister... The old minister is about to go downstairs to see you, and you will be as good as you want to kill or cut! "
"Last king! Your junior has another person like you. He is less than six years old this year! Old minister... Old minister wants to protect him and watch him grow up, but Old minister really has not had much time, not much! May you bless him more in the spirit of heaven!"
...
Jidu, Su Mansion.
Looking at the "The Talk of the Young Yan Kingdom" copied from Prince Ji Xi on the table.
Su Fu stood up, tapped the table gently, and said to Gao Yang Jun Rongfu, Qing Qin and others sitting opposite the table:
"What a hidden dragon soars into the abyss, with its scales flying; the breasts roar at the valley, and all the beasts are shocked."
"What a big ambition! What a big ambition! It seems that we have underestimated this young master Ji Kang before."
"I think it's unnecessary for you to worry about it. Maybe this article was written by someone else!"
Gao Yang Jun Rongfu waved his hand and said disapprovingly.
But when you know the process of writing this article, you can only smile bitterly when you don’t care about it. This child can go to Liaocheng as soon as possible, so you can keep him away from Jidu and feel confused if you don’t see him.
...
And in Jidu City, a palace in the northwest direction.
A gray-haired, 60-year-old man was also watching "The Young Yan Kingdom Talk".
