Biyu was sitting uneasily in the study. Suddenly he heard footsteps outside the door. He felt nervous. The door curtain was lifted, but it was his mother. Seeing that his mother had arrived before his father, he felt much more at ease. But when Shi Hui came in

At that time, his heart was still beating wildly.

Shi Hui sat down and ignored Bi Yu for now, but asked his wife: "How old is De'er this year?"

"Husband, you have forgotten that at this time last year, you organized a grand crowning ceremony for him. He was twenty years old last year and will be twenty-one this year." Mrs. Wang didn't know what her husband meant by asking this.

I can only respond casually.

"When a person has passed the age of weakness, he has grown up, which is really good. At the age of twenty-one, he can have his own opinions and no longer need to be disciplined by his parents."

After Biyu heard this, he knew something was wrong, so he stood up and said, "How can father say that? No matter how old the child is, he must obey the discipline of you two elders."

"Hmm? Really? Do you think I don't know what you are doing behind your back?" Shi Hui suddenly went into action, "Why are you secretly taking Five Stone Powder behind my back? Also, there are young people at the back door every day.

What's going on when a woman comes to donate milk? If you can convince me today, that's it. If you can't, I'll let you have a taste of family law!"

Mentioning the family law, Biyu's heart trembled, because five years ago, when Zhixin fell into the water and disappeared, he had experienced the pain of the family law once, and now he didn't want to experience it a second time. He thought in his mind: Just

Regarding the two matters of raising human suckling pigs and secretly taking Wu Shi Powder, I think that secretly taking Wu Shi Powder is more serious than raising human suckling pigs, so I will talk about secretly taking Wu Shi Powder later.

Find a suitable reason for the suckling pig thing...

Thinking of this, Biyu changed his face and said with a smile: "Aweng, at the royal banquet a few months ago, there was a steamed dolphin dish, do you remember? It was selected from the best suckling pigs, and

It is made by the magic chef Xiao Mo.

Everyone thinks it is the most delicious steamed dolphin in the world, right? But it is not the case. I heard someone say that the steamed dolphin from Prince Consort Wang Ji’s family is the most delicious steamed dolphin in the world, because their suckling pigs are fed with human milk.

of……"

"So you also want to taste the most delicious steamed dolphin in the world, right? That's nonsense! Do you know that in today's world, although extravagance and exaggeration are already common, there are only three people who are the best among them: one is the Prince Consort

Ji, another one is His Majesty’s uncle Wang Kai, and another one is Shi Chong. Do you want to compare with them?"

Mrs. Wang also chimed in and reprimanded: "Feeding a few suckling pigs with human milk is nothing to our family, but this practice is too absurd. Haven't you heard? Even the emperor sneered at this behavior. Furthermore,

It is said that Wang Ji, the Prince Consort, is very brave and powerful, and he is also very loyal to the court.

Ting Yougong, no matter how hard you work, you still have some qualifications. But you, at such a young age, have what qualifications do you have to follow the trend like this?" Mrs. Wang said this, in name she was scolding her son, but in fact she was trying to fool her and use it as an excuse.

He took the opportunity to help his son and ease the conflicting atmosphere.

"I naturally don't dare to compare with these three seniors. It's true that I want to taste steamed dolphin with human milk, but I am not doing this for my own selfish desires, but for the sake of you, father, and our Shi family.

.”

"For me? Forget it, I want to hear what reasons you have to give to defend yourself."

"I am really thinking about my father. I would like to ask my father two things. Although my father is now the Zhongzheng of Ruyin, he must be restrained and evaluated by Jia Gong, the Dazhongzheng of Yuzhou, right? Also, whose civil and military affairs are in the imperial court now?

The most powerful?"

"As the Zhongzheng of Ruyin County, I am naturally bound by the Zhongzheng of Yuzhou. Since Taikang, His Majesty has only cared about pleasure, and all matters in the court were left to the Yang family. Who has the most power, of course, the current emperor.

Queen Yang’s father is Taiwei Yang Jun.”

"That's right. My father must also know that this Jia Gong is from the Yang Party and is very close to the Yang family, right? If my father wants to make this Ru Yin Zhongzheng sit firmly, the character of our father and son will be improved, and it will not be flattering.

Can Jia Dazhong be able to do it?"

"Of course I want to please him, but I haven't thought of a good way yet."

"I have found this way." Bi Yu's uneasiness just now turned into a proud tone, "Jia Dazhongzheng also comes from a prominent family. Naturally, his family is not short of land and money. What he is pursuing now is just enjoyment. I heard

It is said that Jia Dazhongzheng coveted Jiang Xiao’s most delicacies.

Mo's cooking skills are very good, and his favorite dish is steamed pork, but ordinary steamed pork is naturally unacceptable to him. If his father can present him with a special steamed human milk dish made by Xiao Mo himself,

Dolphin, tell me, he will be extremely happy?"

"This..." After listening to his son's words, Shi Hui thought silently: He was right to please Jia Gong, and Jia Gong was a member of Yang Dang. Now His Majesty is right to favor Yang Dang alone. In this way, he must

It is natural for my son to raise human suckling pigs.

Is that right? Although he knew that this might be his son tricking him, the truth was so true that he could not pursue the matter any further. He could only say: "Put this aside for now. Let's talk about what you stole."

It’s about taking five stone powder.”

Because of the toxic and side effects of Wushi Powder, Shi Hui was explicitly prohibited from contacting Biyu. Therefore, since taking it that day, he has been unable to find a reason to excuse the matter for so many days.

Seeing him hesitating, Shi Hui said angrily: "Not only did you secretly take Wushi Powder, but you also suffered from the cold due to Xing Powder, and because of this, you were unable to accept Ruyin's errand. You have failed the emperor's favor.

Not to mention, you also missed a great opportunity for experience. Do you know that it is a rare opportunity to be able to do a foreign mission. Two years of hard work in the original position cannot compare to this one, which lasted only ten days.

What was obtained

Your Majesty’s approval is also the acceptance of His Majesty’s order. Look at that poor boy Shu Yan. He went to Ruyin with Jiazhou on errands and has returned to Luoyang today. In addition to His Majesty’s joy, he has gained experience for himself.

, which naturally increases the bargaining chip in his quality evaluation. And you, you have not made any achievements in your official career for more than a year. When the next time you are evaluated for genuine quality, teach me how to cover it up?"

Mrs. Wang heard her husband say that it had reached the level of affecting Zhongzheng's evaluation, so she complained: "Speaking of it, all this is because of the Shi family woman. If she had not refused our marriage proposal, the son would not be depressed. If he was not depressed,

If he doesn't take Wushi Powder, he won't get sick due to Xing Powder. If he doesn't get sick, he can follow Jia Gong to Ruyin on the emperor's mission."

"Don't blame others. If a noble man from an aristocratic family is depressed because of a woman, wouldn't he be afraid of being laughed at if he told it?"

"I'm really depressed because the Shi family didn't agree to my marriage, but that's not why I took Wushisan." Biyu also felt that it was a bit disgraceful to become depressed and sick just because the woman refused his marriage proposal.

So he hurriedly argued, "I listened to Xiahoumen and Xun Bao, because they told me that if you want to integrate into the gentry circle, you must attend Qingtan meetings, and most of the people who participate in Qingtan must take five

Stones scattered."

Biyu's words really worked, because Shi Hui also very much wanted Biyu to integrate into the circle of nobles and become a true nobleman. Although he also knew that the children of the nobles were becoming increasingly corrupt and degenerate, and he also knew that idle talk would harm the country, but the general environment was like this.

He must let Biyu integrate into it, otherwise, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in this class. "It is also a good thing for you to participate in the elegant talk gathering. But don't listen to the remarks of those vulgar people, listen more to the opinions of celebrities, in order to

Improved.”

"Is my uncle, the Minister of Huangmen, considered a famous person?"

"Wang Yifu?" Shi Hui asked in surprise, "Of course, he is the first-class talker today. Although you and I have often interacted with some famous people in metaphysics in my life, and often participated in discussions about metaphysics, I have no idea about the true meaning of metaphysics.

I can never grasp it. Unlike your uncle Yifu, who speaks out subtle mysteries. I wonder if they were talking about 'existence', 'talent' or 'famous teachings and nature' that day?"

Biyu said with regret: "I didn't hear anything. It's just because my child went late that day and didn't hear what they talked about before. I only heard the last paragraph about Lao and Zhuang scriptures. However, although my child's grasp of those exquisite mystical principles is only just

It’s superficial, but I have some superficial opinions about ‘whether or not’, and I want to let my father hear it.”

"You're a newbie and you already have your own opinions? You really don't know how high the sky is!" Shi Hui shouted flatly.

"Since De'er said he has some opinions, he must be a bit unreasonable, so let him talk about it."

Biyu had just been disappointed because his father didn't give him a chance, and he didn't want his mother to save him again, so he said happily: "Since my father just mentioned Shu Yan and Zhongzhengpin, then I will use the mystery of 'whether or not' to

For example, Aweng, take me and Shu Yan as examples, which one is more appropriate to compare to 'something' and who to 'nothing'?"

"Huh?" Shi Hui didn't expect Biyu to ask such a strange question, but he thought for a while and quickly gave the answer, "Shu Yan works hard in all aspects and is excellent. He is proficient in the Five Classics and Six Arts. He is in Shangshu

Tai Qin is diligent and conscientious, so naturally he should be classified as a 'have' person; as for you, you are not as hard-working as him in terms of achievements, and you have nothing remarkable since you became Secretary Lang, so naturally you should be classified as a 'have-not' person.

.”

"Yeah, I think so too. In this case, my father must know the principle of 'use what you have for benefit, and what you don't have for use' in the Tao Te Ching."

"What's the reason? You tell my grandma. Your grandma knows, but grandma doesn't."

"Okay." Biyu said with a proud look at this time, "Just like the teacup in Aweng's hand, the bottom of the teacup and a ring of walls are tangible, that is, 'there', and the hollow part inside the teacup is

'Nothing'. Although we must use this 'have' to drink tea, in fact tea

The bottom and wall of the cup only play a supporting role. What we really use is the hollow part of the teacup - that is, the 'no' part. Just imagine, if the teacup is solid, can we still drink tea from it? So

You can say that my 'nothing' is better than Shu Yan's 'you'."

After hearing Biyu's remarks, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but praise: "This is reasonable."

Even A Miao and A Yan nodded happily. Only Shi Hui felt that he had fallen into his son's trap. He scolded: "How can a person compare with a tea cup? It's obviously a strong argument."

"Hmph, if Aweng still thinks that I am being unreasonable, then let me ask again: I have debated with him several times in front of His Majesty, and he always holds a 'proactive' view and likes to respond positively to everything; and I basically

Those who hold the view of "doing nothing" like to let everything take its course. However, your majesty has never listened to his opinion? Isn't this what I said, "doing nothing and doing everything"? So, how can that boy Shu Yan be compared?

Pass me?"

"You?" Shi Hui was left speechless by his son's argument, and thought to himself: This kid has a very high mind. It would be great if he spent a little bit of the time he spent on the Three Mysteries on the serious Five Classics.

Although he was relieved, Shi Hui was still worried about Biyufu Wushisan: "Forget it, I don't want to argue with you about this. I will spare you for today, but let me warn you first, it is not a bad idea to study mystical principles occasionally.

No, but the Five Stone Powder cannot be touched easily, do you understand?"
