Injecting vast real energy to Yunshuo heal the wound. After he recovered from his nine successful power, Yuan Yueze and Lian Rou returned to the palace.
It was already late, passing through the sound of firecrackers everywhere, and the lights illuminated the entire Chang'an street as bright as daytime. The two entered the Suzaku Gate.
Lian Rou's cute eyebrows frowned slightly and said: Did you realize that the atmosphere on the street is wrong just now?
Yuan Yueze nodded and said: It seems to be a little solemn and solemn
Lian Rou suddenly widened her beautiful eyes and shouted: Will Li Shimin be slaughtered?
Yuan Yueze shrugged his shoulders. Before he could answer, he saw a team of eunuchs led by Wei Lianxiang on the Chengtianmen Road between the Secretariat and the two provinces.
He quickly stepped forward and Yuan Yueze said to Wei Lianxiang, who looked like a dead person: Why is my father-in-law here?
Wei Lianxiang bowed and said: The emperor came to invite the young master's family, and the ladies have already gone to Tai Chi Hall.
Yuan Yueze said politely and set off with them
A few steps away, Yuan Yueze gathered the aura of the demon and said to Wei Lianxiang: Is something happening in the palace? On the way back, I just saw that the atmosphere in the city was a bit strange.
Wei Lianxiang's cultivation was not low, and she noticed that no one could hear the conversation between the two, so she replied to him: On the way back, the King of Qin met Yang Xuyan, Pi Chen, and Zuo Youxian secretly attacked him, but was rescued and was only slightly injured. The emperor did not want to destroy the atmosphere today and ordered that this matter be not allowed to be leaked for the time being. Maybe the King of Qin sent some people out to search in secret!
Li Yuan is really a confused man. Not only did he stand on the side of the princeling party in the internal strife of his sons, he also didn't care about Li Shimin's life or death. How could anyone be like this in the world?
After sighing inwardly, Yuan Yueze pondered: Did Li Yuan know that it was the princelings who attacked Li Shimin? Who is capable of saving Li Shimin from the hands of those three masters
Wei Lianxiang said: I was ordered to accompany Li Shimin at that time, Yueshan was played by Song Shidao, and Ouyang Xiyi who escorted Wang Tong to Chang'an. Finally, three Western Regions people named Gaduo rescued him. Song Shidao left along the way. Li Shimin had invited Nagaduo to the palace to attend the banquet.
After saying that, the dim eyes burst into lightning. He turned his head and looked at Yuan Yueze carefully, and then turned his head forward.
Yuan Yueze thought that this is indeed the case!
The princelings still attacked Li Shimin. Song Shidao saved Li Shimin because he was too soft-hearted. Wang Tong looked down on the woman and refused to cooperate with Chen Luoyan earlier. At this moment, he should have been invited by his former friend Li Yuan. Gaduo actually came to Chang'an at this moment. He didn't know what the purpose was. Just as he was thinking, he was suddenly swept by Wei Lianxiang's sharp eyes, and he suddenly fell all over the floor and said in a lost voice: Yuan doesn't like men, father-in-law, don't look at me like this.
But I added to my heart: You are not a man now
Wei Lianxiang said as she walked: I just want to take a closer look at the difference between the two junior sisters, Wān'er and Qing'er, who knows that it's just that.
Thinking that he should have seen Wen Caiting, Yuan Yueze laughed and said: Don’t be jealous!
Wei Lianxiang showed a helpless smile on her wrinkled old face and said: No one knows what Pei Ji is doing now, and Meixian is not easy to play with.
Yuan Yueze nodded and said: Only a few of us know about this matter. In the future, it will probably be a unsolved case. It would be good, at least it is fair to those families and descendants who do not know their true identity.
The group didn't say much. In a short while, they arrived at the Cross Square that separates the palace and the royal city.
New Year's Eve banquet has not yet begun, everything is ready
First of all, what makes people shine is that a 15-meter-high lamp wheel is built across the middle of the square, wrapped in colorful silk brocade, and countless lanterns are hung. The huge space of the square is shining like a colorful light tree, making the lanterns arranged on both sides also scattered.
On both sides of Chengtian Gate entering the palace, a firecracker tower of up to twenty feet high was set up on both sides. It is conceivable that the fire flash fire bursts and the colorful and lively atmosphere was ignited.
Yuan Yueze, who enjoyed the New Year atmosphere for the first time, and Renrou, who had passed through Middle Earth, were immediately stunned.
Wei Lianxiang and his party bowed and left
Yuan Yueze and Lianrou enjoyed while walking, constantly exclaiming
At this time, thousands of guests gathered in the crossing square, mainly Tang Dynasty officials and family members, as well as local merchants, envoys from other places and Hu merchants, which was much bigger than the show that he welcomed Yuan Yueze that day.
In the wide square, people were chatting with people who were familiar with each other.
Whether it is the palace maids and officials, or the kabuki, they are dressed up in colorful clothes, dressed in silk, dressed in beautiful clothes, shining pearls and jade, dressed in fragrant powder, and dressed in colorful scenery, adding infinite tenderness to the New Year's Eve banquet.
The two bands distributed at the interface of Tianjie and the square are playing early, repeating famous festive tunes such as Taiping Music and New Year's Eve music. The flute and Shao are ringing together, and the bells and drums are ringing together, full of the atmosphere of sending the old and welcoming the new on New Year's Eve.
Brother Yuan and the princess are late!
Li Shimin's loud voice attracted the attention of the two of them, and he saw Li Shimin wearing gorgeous clothes walking out of the left back. Following him were Ouyang Xiyi and Gaduo who had been missing for a long time.
After not seeing each other for many days, Gaduo was more energetic than before, and his cultivation seemed to have improved.
Yuan Yueze bowed to Li Shimin: Brother Shimin is polite!
After saying that, he took a step forward and stretched out his hands. Ouyang Xiyi and Gaduo tacitly clasped their hands tightly. The three of them just smiled at each other and did not speak.
Li Shimin's eyes flashed with coldness. He admired Gaduo's skills and free and easy temperament very much. He was trying to win him over. Unexpectedly, he and Yuan Yueze were not only old acquaintances, but probably their friendship was not simple.
In this era of chaos and intrigue, Yuan Yueze had very few friends. Except for Song Shidao, Shuanglong, Hou Xibai and Ba Fenghan, he only admired Gaduo and Liu Heita. Although he didn't meet them many times, he was even a rival in love with Gaduo at first and fought with his life, but it did not affect Yuan Yueze's appreciation for him at all.
Li Shimin laughed and said: It turns out that Brother Yuan and Brother Gaduo are old acquaintances, so it's so good.
Yuan Yueze pretended to behave and said: Yes, how could you be together?
Li Shimin, who was reminiscent of his brothers' destruction, looked dim and returned to normal in an instant. He told his experience and said with emotion: If there were no Mr. Yue, Mr. Yi and Brother Gaduo today, Shimin would have no life to enjoy the Spring Festival banquet.
Ouyang Xiyi and Gaduo are polite quickly. Li Shimin sighed: Last night, Shimin was watching the stars and saw the Pleiades' glory and prosperity, he felt that it was inappropriate. Who knew it was really a great evil
Yuan Yueze laughed in his heart: Isn’t this what Wen Caiting said?
Suddenly I remembered that after seeing Subaru Riji last night, I was plotted against Shi Zhixuan. Yuan Yueze thought that superstitious about this thing is really harmful, and even he believed it a little.
Without any concern for outsiders' strange eyes, Lian Rou, who had been tightly wrapped around Yuan Yueze's arm, stared at Gaduo curiously for a long time, and said with a smile: We are fellow countrymen! You speak Chinese better than others
At this moment, another group of officials and nobles came over. Li Shimin apologized to the people, greeted them, and accepted the congratulations. Just looking at this situation, he knew that Li Shimin was very supportive and did not deliberately alienate him because of the completion and the exclusion of Yuanji.
Ouyang Xiyi came to Yuan Yueze and whispered: During the banquet, Brother Yuan, don’t let Brother Wang be too embarrassed.
Yuan Yuezeqi said: Can Mr. Yi say more details?
Ouyang Xiyi sighed: Brother Wang accepted Li Yuan’s invitation and came to build momentum for Li Tang, and... and we met Master Fanzhai and his group on the way. Master Fanzhai talked with Brother Wang for more than half an hour before saying goodbye. I guess Brother Wang might attack during the banquet. I know the knowledge of Brother Yuan’s family, so please leave him with some face.
Yuan Yueze frowned and agreed with a smile. Ouyang Xiyi patted him on the shoulder a few times, turned around and walked towards the crowd in the distance.
Gaduo said: Congratulations to Brother Yuan and Miss Wān for getting together
Seeing that he was not jealous and sincerely blessed, Yuan Yueze smiled and said: Brother Gaduo, don’t you blame me for being promiscuous? I have taken away what you love in your heart.
Gaduo laughed and said: Brother Yuan, don’t test me anymore. I have just met Miss Wān. I know she only has you in her heart. Since you two are in love, why care about the opinions of outsiders? And I am...hey!
Yuan Yueze admired his free and easy temperament and said: Look at Brother Gaduo, should he find his other half?
Gadu smiled and nodded, Yuan Yueze asked why he appeared here again. Gadu said sadly: The surname Ga was originally a big clan in the Western Regions, but later it was affected by the war. I was learning martial arts abroad at that time. When I returned home, only my uncle had a breath. Later, I followed his orders to go to the Central Plains to find a long time ago a girl who had been separated from her for many years. There was no news. I thought she should have died long ago, but I saved Brother Shimin on the way back to the Western Regions.
Yuan Yueze patted his shoulder. They were both unspeakable people. The key to making friends is to communicate with each other and there is no need for extra language. Gadu could already feel Yuan Yueze's concerns, so he smiled.
When! When! When! When! When!
The bells of the court banquet rang out of time
Accompanied by the three sons of close ministers, concubines, Jiancheng, Shimin and Yuanji, amid the sound of drums and music, Li Yuan wore a dragon crown and imperial robe, climbed to Chengtian Gate Tower, accepted the congratulations from his ministers and guests, and said some words of honor.
The atmosphere in the scene immediately became boiling. When Li Yuan retreated from the gatehouse to Tai Chi Palace, various performances began immediately.
Those who are qualified will go to Tai Chi Hall to go to the court banquet
The night banquet seat is still roughly the same as last time, except that four VIP seats were added at the chairman's seat. Yuan Yueze and Gaduo were the last to enter the hall. Bi Xuan, Ga Suwen, Wang Tong and Shang Xiufang were sitting upright in the three seats whispering. Even Bi Xuan was smiling, which showed how charming Shang Xiufang was.
Gaduo was invited by Changsun Wuji to sit together. I think it should be arranged by Li Shimin.
Almost no one knows anyone except Ouyang Xiyi, except for Ouyang Xiyi.
Although Ouyang Xiyi accompanied Wang Tong, this move shows his appreciation for Yuan Yueze.
Looking at the wives sitting in the seat in the distance, Yuan Yueze nodded to them.
More than a dozen women sat around, causing the entire lobby to lose their glory, but only attracted the envy of women. No man dared to take a look at it, because Zhu Yuyan on the main seat was like a cold statue with invisible murderous aura. If anyone dared to look over with an obscene look, he would be in trouble immediately.
The bell rang again, and Li Yuan led Concubine Yin De, Zhang Jieyu, his three sons and royal relatives to enter the venue. A group of nearly a hundred people entered the hall according to the order of superiority and inferiority. After Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, followed by Li Yuanji, and finally Li Nantian and other members of the Li family. Concubine Lian may be pregnant, so it is not convenient for him to appear in such an occasion.
Toasts three times, Li Yuan said another thing to ask everyone not to be polite and have fun in the festival, more than a hundred Kabuki, under the leadership of Ji Qian, floated out from the back doors on both sides of the chairman, singing and dancing in the melodious drums and music.
Ji Qianfen, the most central one, is particularly charming. Against the backdrop of many Kabuki, she can especially show her outstanding graceful posture.
The girls sang and danced softly, and her voice was sweet. Although she was not as unique and outstanding as Shang Xiufang's unique style, she also had a touching charm. No wonder she became the most popular famous artist in Chang'an.
After the song was over, when the lights in the hall were bright, the dance music had already left the hall from the way, and the cheers sounded loudly.
Li Jiancheng applauded and said to Shang Xiufang: The dance music compiled by Xiufang is indeed brilliant, with an ethereal and elegant style and grand atmosphere, but it can't show a feeling that is inconsistent with this festive atmosphere, which is admirable.
Everyone agreed, and Shang Xiufang hurriedly let him go
At this time, the palace maids brought delicious food to the table like water, and everyone began to toast each other, and the atmosphere became more lively
After three rounds of drinking, Li Jiancheng challenged Tiance Mansion again. Yuan Yueze was still wondering why Li Jian became so arrogant. Gaduo came to the scene as Li Shimin's guest minister. After fighting with Kou Zhong, Ke Dazhi, who had been devoted to understanding the sword, was still interested in the sword.
Yuan Yueze secretly scolded Li Shimin for being accused of being simple and simple. Then he realized that Li Jiancheng and He Gang had just attacked Li Shimin without a surprise attack. At this moment, he still dared to be so arrogant.
He did this to show Li Yuan that he had nothing to do with this matter. If he looked uneasy and guilty, he would definitely be suspicious, but he would be as arrogant as before, which would make life without doubt and show his innocence
As he thought, the battle in the field had begun, and the battle between the two martial arts madmen was over instantly. The two of them did not distinguish between winning or losing, and they evenly matched the situation.
But careful people can see that Gado has not done his best, and the princelings have actually been defeated
A glance at Li Jiancheng, who was pretending to be smiling, asked back to Li Jiancheng, who had a calm expression. Before Yuan Yueze could laugh, he listened to Li Yuanji: I heard that Brother Yuan had a wonderful debate with Mr. Jingzhai in Tianjin Bridge earlier. Even Mr. Shi admired the "five questions" that even Mr. Shi admired him, and admired him. I have a cup of Brother Jingyuan, and I wish that Brother Yuan will go well in the new year.
Hey! Have you started the offensive?
Yuan Yueze laughed secretly and stood up. His handsome and plump figure immediately attracted everyone's attention. If WānWān's charm is a killing of both men and women, Yuan Yueze is not inferior at all. He raised his glass and said: Thank you, I heard that Brother Yuanji is going to marry Miss Ji Qian on this New Year's Eve. I wonder if this is the case?
Li Yuanji smiled and pointed at the mulberry and scolded the locust, saying all of them were slander. This plan not only could hit Li Shimin, who was supported by Jingzhai, but also aroused Wang Tong's dissatisfaction in the seat. You should know that Wang Tong once commented that although Yuan Yueze's view was good, if that continued, "the king was not the king, and the people were not the people." This was obviously contrary to the long-standing Confucian thoughts such as loyal king, sage king, and the three pillars and five constants. This is also a reason why Wang Tong was unwilling to assist Yuan Yueze.
But Yuan Yueze is not simple. He almost choked Li Yuanji to death with one sentence. Even Li Yuan, who allowed Li Yuanji to provoke Yuan Yueze, looked ugly. The forced marriage they mentioned before was just a plan. It was nothing more than deducing from the relationship between Yuan Yueze and Xiao Heer and Ji Qian that Yuan Yueze would not ignore Ji Qian. Ji Qian was famous for his stubbornness. If Yuan Yueze wanted to persuade her, he would inevitably tell some secrets about him. In this way, Li Tang, who was eavesdropping on the copper tube in Shanglinyuan, found some useful news. Who knew that in Ji Qian's boudoir that day, Xiao Heer said that there was something important to say, and then he lay in Ji Qian's ear and talked for a long time. This made the eavesdropper wonder: Do you have to be so careful when speaking in his room?
That little girl named Xiao He'er is not simple!
This plan can even divert Yuan Yueze's attention, making him unable to grasp the real reason why Li Tang attacked him. It was precisely because of the plan that Li Yuan ignored Li Yuanji's behavior. However, the changes in recent days have been one after another, and the previous plan was useless. The Li family also gave up the idea of plotting Yuan Yueze and prepared to go out of seclusion and ask for an explanation in the future. But today, Yuan Yueze proposed the palace today, and it was too exaggerated, and the face of the Li family father and son suddenly lost.
Almost all the people with power and status in Chang'an are in this hall, and they are silent. Everyone vaguely feels a sense of tension in the air.
Yan Shigu, the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Second Official, heard Wang Daru talk about an interesting story in the Prince's study, but he didn't know whether he should ask or not.
When the atmosphere became more and more awkward, a soft and pleasant voice sounded. Everyone looked in the voice. The speaker was sitting on the right side of Li Yuan's mat, and was very favored by Li Yuan, and Yan Shigu, the Secretariat who specialized in the emperor's imperial edict.
Yan Shigu is not an idle person. His grandfather was Yan Zhitui, a great scholar in the previous dynasty. He wrote "Yan Family Instructions" and had an important influence on the development of feudal family education.
His father Yan Si is also well-read and knowledgeable.
Yan Shigu, who was born in Lan, passed down his family business, followed the ancestral teachings, was proficient in Confucianism, classics, literature, history, and was good at writing exegesis, sound and rhyme, and proofreading. The famous "Han Shu Notes" that was passed down from later generations was written by him.
Yan Zhenqing, Yan Gaoqing and Yan Chunqing, who were later known as the Three Qings of the Yan family, were also one of Yan Tui's veins.
Yuan Yueze looked at Yan Shigu, who was dressed in an extraordinary appearance, dressed in a civil servant, and was extremely bookish. He secretly praised the Yan family for being talented, and he didn't know that the spear demon who attacked him that day was also named Yan.
Looking around casually, everyone's expressions were all gone: Li Tangren, led by Li Yuan, looked as old as before; Bi Xuan, Gai Suwen, Yin Zuwen and others looked gloating; Feng Deyi, the chief of Li Yuan, stared at Yuan Yueze; Wang Tong lowered his head lightly, not knowing what he was thinking; most of the guests showed expectation expressions, and they seemed to be very interested in this matter; the girls gave Yuan Yueze a smile
Yuan Yueze laughed and said: Please tell me, Lord Yan?
Yan Shigu's expression did not fluctuate, and said: I heard that there were two large murals hanging in the study of Gongzi. One of them reads: "There is only the object of knowledge, then the mind is only the sincerity; the mind is only the righteousness; the mind is only the right mind is only the right; the mind is only the right self-cultivation; the self-cultivation can be achieved; the family is only the whole family is only the country is governed; the country is only the country is governed; the country is governed and the world is peaceful." The young master specially drew a big fork on it; the other one reads: "The world is in chaos, the sages are unclear, and the morals are not consistent. The world is often observed to be self-interested, just like the ears, eyes, nose and mouth, all of which are clear, and they cannot be connected. Just like the skills of a hundred schools of thought, they all have their own strengths and use them at times." The officials were very curious about this matter, so they asked, please don't blame me.
Yuan Yueze thought to himself that he was waiting for me here!
These two sentences come from "The Great Learning" and "Zhuangzi" combined with Yuan Yueze's usual remarks about criticizing Confucianism, Yan Shigu launched an attack
Li Yuan's acquiescent attitude showed that he knew about this beforehand, and that he had to see Yuan Yueze's appearance was a fool. If he could not use force, he would naturally choose to fight.
Yan Shigu just said that it was Wang Tong who told him about this. Wang Tong talked with Fan Qinghui again. When he was young, he looked beautiful and felt unsatisfied. When he saw Fan Qinghui again, he could not help himself and could not be protected from being used.
Fan Qinghui was gone, and the offensive was still the same. This old nun is quite powerful!
All thoughts flashed through my mind in an instant, and Yuan Yueze smiled and said: Is there anything that is worth wondering about?
Yan Shigudao: The lower official only remembers the way the young master acts, and does not understand why the young master hates Confucianism so much
There is something in this sentence, and there are not many fools in the palace, and the problem can be vaguely heard: the sentence "The Great Learning" was simplified by later generations to "cultivate oneself, manage the family, govern the country, and pacify the world", which is the goal of all gentlemen and even ambitious people; the sentence "Zhuangzi" means that there are many schools of thought in the world, and each family can only obtain part of the Taoist tradition, so it must have its shortcomings and advantages.
Yuan Yueze treated the former thought with obvious disdain and belittled. Although the latter thought gave people the impression of being open-minded and objective, it was contrary to his approach to the former thought, which made people feel that he was too hypocritical.
This scholar is really not simple!
Yuan Yueze answered leisurely: Lord Yan is afraid he misunderstood. I also have questions about that sentence. So Yicai did that, and I wonder who the subject of this sentence is? For example, if you are morally noble and knowledgeable, will the emperor hand over the regime to you? Otherwise, how can you "pacify the world"
Listening to his ruthless words, many people in the hall admired him, but did not dare to express it. Yuan Yueze did what they wanted but did not dare to do.
Yan Shigu's expression changed immediately. Wang Tong coughed dryly and said: So that's it. I think Lord Yan should think that the young master is not happy with Confucianism... The young master misunderstood. The correct explanation of this sentence in "The Great Learning" is not what the young master thought...
He immediately planned Yuan Yueze into an illiterate illiterate who didn't know how to pretend to be wise. On the other hand, he tried to reverse the topic. You must know that if Li Yuan misunderstood that Yan Shigu had a strange intention, he would really shoot himself in the foot.
Yuan Yueze laughed and said: The words are used for people to see, and how they understand them vary from person to person. As long as they are not improper, they have their rationality. For example, "The Doctrine of the Mean" says, "Therefore, great virtues must get their position and their salaries." I think this is a fantasy, do Wang Daru agree?
Wang Tong: The young master is indeed very eloquent. Then Wang asked you, a sinister person who is born in evil and devilish, what qualifications are there to talk about the profound Confucian thoughts? What reason is there to teach outsiders to believe him?
When he finished speaking, his forehead was already in his mouth and his body trembled slightly
Yuan Yueze thought to himself that Fan Qinghui gave you a look and you would die for him!
After giving Zhu Yuyan a wink not far away, she removed her spiritual power, and Wang Tong suddenly felt relieved.
Yuan Yueze smiled and said: It is said that Wang Daru once wrote the "Twelve Strategies of Taiping" by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, advocating "respecting the king's way, advocating the strategy, reviewing the past and verifying the present, and mobilizing the world at the hands of the masters and ministers". He was deeply praised by Emperor Wen, but when he was discussing the court, he was neglected and excluded, and began to lose confidence in the court and resigned from his post and returned to his hometown to give lectures. Do you do this? Is it consistent with the Confucian profound thoughts and consistent with the Confucian "gentleman" norms?
Wang Tong's old face turned red with anger, and his body began to tremble again, but he couldn't answer.
The gentleman mentioned by Confucianism is that those who are powerful do not follow them, those who are in a strong position do not follow them, those who are in a beautiful position do not deny them, those who are in a bad manner do not fear them, those who are weak do not deceive them, those who follow good friends, those who like and dislike abandon them, those who are in a long position will respect them, and those who are young will hide them.
Those who serve the people are content with their residence, those who serve the officials are responsible for their duties, those who are poor will not lose their righteousness, and those who are enlightened will not leave the Tao
Wang Tong did not fulfill his talents for the country due to personal gains and losses, which did violate the way of a gentleman.
Yuan Yueze grasps a key point in the debate: grasp one of the opponent's shortcomings, expand infinitely, and confuse the public
He did it
In fact, Wang Tong is not that bad. He advocates benevolent politics and advocates the unity of the three religions, and the use of poetry and politics and religion. The essays are based on the agreement, understanding, and sanctions, and advocates reforming the literary style.
It is in line with the trend of the times. Later generations regarded him as a representative of the Confucian school. His disciples respectfully called him Wen Zhongzi. But no one was perfect, and Wang Tong was no exception. He liked to seek fame. After returning home, he imitated Confucius' "Summary of the Six Classics" and taught in Hefen. When he was teaching in Hefen, he claimed that no one could deny his talent, but he could not ignore his flashy and impracticality.
Yuan Yueze continued to say: Which of them is from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Guan Zhong, and Kuang Heng of Qi State, is the best origin? Although I have different experiences from them, my nature is no different from Yuan. Someone in the Demon Sect. For several years, my son Zhu Yuyan has worked hard to amend the rules of the rules of selfishness and self-interest, and to delete the previous self-interested rules. Do you do this? Outsiders still want to beat them?
The hall is silent, and the needle can be heard
It was already late, passing through the sound of firecrackers everywhere, and the lights illuminated the entire Chang'an street as bright as daytime. The two entered the Suzaku Gate.
Lian Rou's cute eyebrows frowned slightly and said: Did you realize that the atmosphere on the street is wrong just now?
Yuan Yueze nodded and said: It seems to be a little solemn and solemn
Lian Rou suddenly widened her beautiful eyes and shouted: Will Li Shimin be slaughtered?
Yuan Yueze shrugged his shoulders. Before he could answer, he saw a team of eunuchs led by Wei Lianxiang on the Chengtianmen Road between the Secretariat and the two provinces.
He quickly stepped forward and Yuan Yueze said to Wei Lianxiang, who looked like a dead person: Why is my father-in-law here?
Wei Lianxiang bowed and said: The emperor came to invite the young master's family, and the ladies have already gone to Tai Chi Hall.
Yuan Yueze said politely and set off with them
A few steps away, Yuan Yueze gathered the aura of the demon and said to Wei Lianxiang: Is something happening in the palace? On the way back, I just saw that the atmosphere in the city was a bit strange.
Wei Lianxiang's cultivation was not low, and she noticed that no one could hear the conversation between the two, so she replied to him: On the way back, the King of Qin met Yang Xuyan, Pi Chen, and Zuo Youxian secretly attacked him, but was rescued and was only slightly injured. The emperor did not want to destroy the atmosphere today and ordered that this matter be not allowed to be leaked for the time being. Maybe the King of Qin sent some people out to search in secret!
Li Yuan is really a confused man. Not only did he stand on the side of the princeling party in the internal strife of his sons, he also didn't care about Li Shimin's life or death. How could anyone be like this in the world?
After sighing inwardly, Yuan Yueze pondered: Did Li Yuan know that it was the princelings who attacked Li Shimin? Who is capable of saving Li Shimin from the hands of those three masters
Wei Lianxiang said: I was ordered to accompany Li Shimin at that time, Yueshan was played by Song Shidao, and Ouyang Xiyi who escorted Wang Tong to Chang'an. Finally, three Western Regions people named Gaduo rescued him. Song Shidao left along the way. Li Shimin had invited Nagaduo to the palace to attend the banquet.
After saying that, the dim eyes burst into lightning. He turned his head and looked at Yuan Yueze carefully, and then turned his head forward.
Yuan Yueze thought that this is indeed the case!
The princelings still attacked Li Shimin. Song Shidao saved Li Shimin because he was too soft-hearted. Wang Tong looked down on the woman and refused to cooperate with Chen Luoyan earlier. At this moment, he should have been invited by his former friend Li Yuan. Gaduo actually came to Chang'an at this moment. He didn't know what the purpose was. Just as he was thinking, he was suddenly swept by Wei Lianxiang's sharp eyes, and he suddenly fell all over the floor and said in a lost voice: Yuan doesn't like men, father-in-law, don't look at me like this.
But I added to my heart: You are not a man now
Wei Lianxiang said as she walked: I just want to take a closer look at the difference between the two junior sisters, Wān'er and Qing'er, who knows that it's just that.
Thinking that he should have seen Wen Caiting, Yuan Yueze laughed and said: Don’t be jealous!
Wei Lianxiang showed a helpless smile on her wrinkled old face and said: No one knows what Pei Ji is doing now, and Meixian is not easy to play with.
Yuan Yueze nodded and said: Only a few of us know about this matter. In the future, it will probably be a unsolved case. It would be good, at least it is fair to those families and descendants who do not know their true identity.
The group didn't say much. In a short while, they arrived at the Cross Square that separates the palace and the royal city.
New Year's Eve banquet has not yet begun, everything is ready

In the wide square, people were chatting with people who were familiar with each other.
Whether it is the palace maids and officials, or the kabuki, they are dressed up in colorful clothes, dressed in silk, dressed in beautiful clothes, shining pearls and jade, dressed in fragrant powder, and dressed in colorful scenery, adding infinite tenderness to the New Year's Eve banquet.
The two bands distributed at the interface of Tianjie and the square are playing early, repeating famous festive tunes such as Taiping Music and New Year's Eve music. The flute and Shao are ringing together, and the bells and drums are ringing together, full of the atmosphere of sending the old and welcoming the new on New Year's Eve.
Brother Yuan and the princess are late!
Li Shimin's loud voice attracted the attention of the two of them, and he saw Li Shimin wearing gorgeous clothes walking out of the left back. Following him were Ouyang Xiyi and Gaduo who had been missing for a long time.
After not seeing each other for many days, Gaduo was more energetic than before, and his cultivation seemed to have improved.
Yuan Yueze bowed to Li Shimin: Brother Shimin is polite!
After saying that, he took a step forward and stretched out his hands. Ouyang Xiyi and Gaduo tacitly clasped their hands tightly. The three of them just smiled at each other and did not speak.
Li Shimin's eyes flashed with coldness. He admired Gaduo's skills and free and easy temperament very much. He was trying to win him over. Unexpectedly, he and Yuan Yueze were not only old acquaintances, but probably their friendship was not simple.
In this era of chaos and intrigue, Yuan Yueze had very few friends. Except for Song Shidao, Shuanglong, Hou Xibai and Ba Fenghan, he only admired Gaduo and Liu Heita. Although he didn't meet them many times, he was even a rival in love with Gaduo at first and fought with his life, but it did not affect Yuan Yueze's appreciation for him at all.
Li Shimin laughed and said: It turns out that Brother Yuan and Brother Gaduo are old acquaintances, so it's so good.
Yuan Yueze pretended to behave and said: Yes, how could you be together?
Li Shimin, who was reminiscent of his brothers' destruction, looked dim and returned to normal in an instant. He told his experience and said with emotion: If there were no Mr. Yue, Mr. Yi and Brother Gaduo today, Shimin would have no life to enjoy the Spring Festival banquet.
Ouyang Xiyi and Gaduo are polite quickly. Li Shimin sighed: Last night, Shimin was watching the stars and saw the Pleiades' glory and prosperity, he felt that it was inappropriate. Who knew it was really a great evil
Yuan Yueze laughed in his heart: Isn’t this what Wen Caiting said?
Suddenly I remembered that after seeing Subaru Riji last night, I was plotted against Shi Zhixuan. Yuan Yueze thought that superstitious about this thing is really harmful, and even he believed it a little.
Without any concern for outsiders' strange eyes, Lian Rou, who had been tightly wrapped around Yuan Yueze's arm, stared at Gaduo curiously for a long time, and said with a smile: We are fellow countrymen! You speak Chinese better than others
At this moment, another group of officials and nobles came over. Li Shimin apologized to the people, greeted them, and accepted the congratulations. Just looking at this situation, he knew that Li Shimin was very supportive and did not deliberately alienate him because of the completion and the exclusion of Yuanji.
Ouyang Xiyi came to Yuan Yueze and whispered: During the banquet, Brother Yuan, don’t let Brother Wang be too embarrassed.
Yuan Yuezeqi said: Can Mr. Yi say more details?
Ouyang Xiyi sighed: Brother Wang accepted Li Yuan’s invitation and came to build momentum for Li Tang, and... and we met Master Fanzhai and his group on the way. Master Fanzhai talked with Brother Wang for more than half an hour before saying goodbye. I guess Brother Wang might attack during the banquet. I know the knowledge of Brother Yuan’s family, so please leave him with some face.
Yuan Yueze frowned and agreed with a smile. Ouyang Xiyi patted him on the shoulder a few times, turned around and walked towards the crowd in the distance.
Gaduo said: Congratulations to Brother Yuan and Miss Wān for getting together
Seeing that he was not jealous and sincerely blessed, Yuan Yueze smiled and said: Brother Gaduo, don’t you blame me for being promiscuous? I have taken away what you love in your heart.
Gaduo laughed and said: Brother Yuan, don’t test me anymore. I have just met Miss Wān. I know she only has you in her heart. Since you two are in love, why care about the opinions of outsiders? And I am...hey!
Yuan Yueze admired his free and easy temperament and said: Look at Brother Gaduo, should he find his other half?
Gadu smiled and nodded, Yuan Yueze asked why he appeared here again. Gadu said sadly: The surname Ga was originally a big clan in the Western Regions, but later it was affected by the war. I was learning martial arts abroad at that time. When I returned home, only my uncle had a breath. Later, I followed his orders to go to the Central Plains to find a long time ago a girl who had been separated from her for many years. There was no news. I thought she should have died long ago, but I saved Brother Shimin on the way back to the Western Regions.
Yuan Yueze patted his shoulder. They were both unspeakable people. The key to making friends is to communicate with each other and there is no need for extra language. Gadu could already feel Yuan Yueze's concerns, so he smiled.
When! When! When! When! When!
The bells of the court banquet rang out of time
Accompanied by the three sons of close ministers, concubines, Jiancheng, Shimin and Yuanji, amid the sound of drums and music, Li Yuan wore a dragon crown and imperial robe, climbed to Chengtian Gate Tower, accepted the congratulations from his ministers and guests, and said some words of honor.
The atmosphere in the scene immediately became boiling. When Li Yuan retreated from the gatehouse to Tai Chi Palace, various performances began immediately.
Those who are qualified will go to Tai Chi Hall to go to the court banquet
The night banquet seat is still roughly the same as last time, except that four VIP seats were added at the chairman's seat. Yuan Yueze and Gaduo were the last to enter the hall. Bi Xuan, Ga Suwen, Wang Tong and Shang Xiufang were sitting upright in the three seats whispering. Even Bi Xuan was smiling, which showed how charming Shang Xiufang was.
Gaduo was invited by Changsun Wuji to sit together. I think it should be arranged by Li Shimin.
Almost no one knows anyone except Ouyang Xiyi, except for Ouyang Xiyi.
Although Ouyang Xiyi accompanied Wang Tong, this move shows his appreciation for Yuan Yueze.
Looking at the wives sitting in the seat in the distance, Yuan Yueze nodded to them.
More than a dozen women sat around, causing the entire lobby to lose their glory, but only attracted the envy of women. No man dared to take a look at it, because Zhu Yuyan on the main seat was like a cold statue with invisible murderous aura. If anyone dared to look over with an obscene look, he would be in trouble immediately.
The bell rang again, and Li Yuan led Concubine Yin De, Zhang Jieyu, his three sons and royal relatives to enter the venue. A group of nearly a hundred people entered the hall according to the order of superiority and inferiority. After Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, followed by Li Yuanji, and finally Li Nantian and other members of the Li family. Concubine Lian may be pregnant, so it is not convenient for him to appear in such an occasion.
Toasts three times, Li Yuan said another thing to ask everyone not to be polite and have fun in the festival, more than a hundred Kabuki, under the leadership of Ji Qian, floated out from the back doors on both sides of the chairman, singing and dancing in the melodious drums and music.
Ji Qianfen, the most central one, is particularly charming. Against the backdrop of many Kabuki, she can especially show her outstanding graceful posture.
The girls sang and danced softly, and her voice was sweet. Although she was not as unique and outstanding as Shang Xiufang's unique style, she also had a touching charm. No wonder she became the most popular famous artist in Chang'an.
After the song was over, when the lights in the hall were bright, the dance music had already left the hall from the way, and the cheers sounded loudly.
Li Jiancheng applauded and said to Shang Xiufang: The dance music compiled by Xiufang is indeed brilliant, with an ethereal and elegant style and grand atmosphere, but it can't show a feeling that is inconsistent with this festive atmosphere, which is admirable.
Everyone agreed, and Shang Xiufang hurriedly let him go
At this time, the palace maids brought delicious food to the table like water, and everyone began to toast each other, and the atmosphere became more lively
After three rounds of drinking, Li Jiancheng challenged Tiance Mansion again. Yuan Yueze was still wondering why Li Jian became so arrogant. Gaduo came to the scene as Li Shimin's guest minister. After fighting with Kou Zhong, Ke Dazhi, who had been devoted to understanding the sword, was still interested in the sword.
Yuan Yueze secretly scolded Li Shimin for being accused of being simple and simple. Then he realized that Li Jiancheng and He Gang had just attacked Li Shimin without a surprise attack. At this moment, he still dared to be so arrogant.
He did this to show Li Yuan that he had nothing to do with this matter. If he looked uneasy and guilty, he would definitely be suspicious, but he would be as arrogant as before, which would make life without doubt and show his innocence
As he thought, the battle in the field had begun, and the battle between the two martial arts madmen was over instantly. The two of them did not distinguish between winning or losing, and they evenly matched the situation.
But careful people can see that Gado has not done his best, and the princelings have actually been defeated
A glance at Li Jiancheng, who was pretending to be smiling, asked back to Li Jiancheng, who had a calm expression. Before Yuan Yueze could laugh, he listened to Li Yuanji: I heard that Brother Yuan had a wonderful debate with Mr. Jingzhai in Tianjin Bridge earlier. Even Mr. Shi admired the "five questions" that even Mr. Shi admired him, and admired him. I have a cup of Brother Jingyuan, and I wish that Brother Yuan will go well in the new year.
Hey! Have you started the offensive?
Yuan Yueze laughed secretly and stood up. His handsome and plump figure immediately attracted everyone's attention. If WānWān's charm is a killing of both men and women, Yuan Yueze is not inferior at all. He raised his glass and said: Thank you, I heard that Brother Yuanji is going to marry Miss Ji Qian on this New Year's Eve. I wonder if this is the case?
Li Yuanji smiled and pointed at the mulberry and scolded the locust, saying all of them were slander. This plan not only could hit Li Shimin, who was supported by Jingzhai, but also aroused Wang Tong's dissatisfaction in the seat. You should know that Wang Tong once commented that although Yuan Yueze's view was good, if that continued, "the king was not the king, and the people were not the people." This was obviously contrary to the long-standing Confucian thoughts such as loyal king, sage king, and the three pillars and five constants. This is also a reason why Wang Tong was unwilling to assist Yuan Yueze.
But Yuan Yueze is not simple. He almost choked Li Yuanji to death with one sentence. Even Li Yuan, who allowed Li Yuanji to provoke Yuan Yueze, looked ugly. The forced marriage they mentioned before was just a plan. It was nothing more than deducing from the relationship between Yuan Yueze and Xiao Heer and Ji Qian that Yuan Yueze would not ignore Ji Qian. Ji Qian was famous for his stubbornness. If Yuan Yueze wanted to persuade her, he would inevitably tell some secrets about him. In this way, Li Tang, who was eavesdropping on the copper tube in Shanglinyuan, found some useful news. Who knew that in Ji Qian's boudoir that day, Xiao Heer said that there was something important to say, and then he lay in Ji Qian's ear and talked for a long time. This made the eavesdropper wonder: Do you have to be so careful when speaking in his room?
That little girl named Xiao He'er is not simple!
This plan can even divert Yuan Yueze's attention, making him unable to grasp the real reason why Li Tang attacked him. It was precisely because of the plan that Li Yuan ignored Li Yuanji's behavior. However, the changes in recent days have been one after another, and the previous plan was useless. The Li family also gave up the idea of plotting Yuan Yueze and prepared to go out of seclusion and ask for an explanation in the future. But today, Yuan Yueze proposed the palace today, and it was too exaggerated, and the face of the Li family father and son suddenly lost.
Almost all the people with power and status in Chang'an are in this hall, and they are silent. Everyone vaguely feels a sense of tension in the air.
Yan Shigu, the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Second Official, heard Wang Daru talk about an interesting story in the Prince's study, but he didn't know whether he should ask or not.
When the atmosphere became more and more awkward, a soft and pleasant voice sounded. Everyone looked in the voice. The speaker was sitting on the right side of Li Yuan's mat, and was very favored by Li Yuan, and Yan Shigu, the Secretariat who specialized in the emperor's imperial edict.
Yan Shigu is not an idle person. His grandfather was Yan Zhitui, a great scholar in the previous dynasty. He wrote "Yan Family Instructions" and had an important influence on the development of feudal family education.
His father Yan Si is also well-read and knowledgeable.
Yan Shigu, who was born in Lan, passed down his family business, followed the ancestral teachings, was proficient in Confucianism, classics, literature, history, and was good at writing exegesis, sound and rhyme, and proofreading. The famous "Han Shu Notes" that was passed down from later generations was written by him.
Yan Zhenqing, Yan Gaoqing and Yan Chunqing, who were later known as the Three Qings of the Yan family, were also one of Yan Tui's veins.
Yuan Yueze looked at Yan Shigu, who was dressed in an extraordinary appearance, dressed in a civil servant, and was extremely bookish. He secretly praised the Yan family for being talented, and he didn't know that the spear demon who attacked him that day was also named Yan.
Looking around casually, everyone's expressions were all gone: Li Tangren, led by Li Yuan, looked as old as before; Bi Xuan, Gai Suwen, Yin Zuwen and others looked gloating; Feng Deyi, the chief of Li Yuan, stared at Yuan Yueze; Wang Tong lowered his head lightly, not knowing what he was thinking; most of the guests showed expectation expressions, and they seemed to be very interested in this matter; the girls gave Yuan Yueze a smile
Yuan Yueze laughed and said: Please tell me, Lord Yan?
Yan Shigu's expression did not fluctuate, and said: I heard that there were two large murals hanging in the study of Gongzi. One of them reads: "There is only the object of knowledge, then the mind is only the sincerity; the mind is only the righteousness; the mind is only the right mind is only the right; the mind is only the right self-cultivation; the self-cultivation can be achieved; the family is only the whole family is only the country is governed; the country is only the country is governed; the country is governed and the world is peaceful." The young master specially drew a big fork on it; the other one reads: "The world is in chaos, the sages are unclear, and the morals are not consistent. The world is often observed to be self-interested, just like the ears, eyes, nose and mouth, all of which are clear, and they cannot be connected. Just like the skills of a hundred schools of thought, they all have their own strengths and use them at times." The officials were very curious about this matter, so they asked, please don't blame me.
Yuan Yueze thought to himself that he was waiting for me here!
These two sentences come from "The Great Learning" and "Zhuangzi" combined with Yuan Yueze's usual remarks about criticizing Confucianism, Yan Shigu launched an attack
Li Yuan's acquiescent attitude showed that he knew about this beforehand, and that he had to see Yuan Yueze's appearance was a fool. If he could not use force, he would naturally choose to fight.
Yan Shigu just said that it was Wang Tong who told him about this. Wang Tong talked with Fan Qinghui again. When he was young, he looked beautiful and felt unsatisfied. When he saw Fan Qinghui again, he could not help himself and could not be protected from being used.
Fan Qinghui was gone, and the offensive was still the same. This old nun is quite powerful!
All thoughts flashed through my mind in an instant, and Yuan Yueze smiled and said: Is there anything that is worth wondering about?
Yan Shigudao: The lower official only remembers the way the young master acts, and does not understand why the young master hates Confucianism so much
There is something in this sentence, and there are not many fools in the palace, and the problem can be vaguely heard: the sentence "The Great Learning" was simplified by later generations to "cultivate oneself, manage the family, govern the country, and pacify the world", which is the goal of all gentlemen and even ambitious people; the sentence "Zhuangzi" means that there are many schools of thought in the world, and each family can only obtain part of the Taoist tradition, so it must have its shortcomings and advantages.
Yuan Yueze treated the former thought with obvious disdain and belittled. Although the latter thought gave people the impression of being open-minded and objective, it was contrary to his approach to the former thought, which made people feel that he was too hypocritical.
This scholar is really not simple!
Yuan Yueze answered leisurely: Lord Yan is afraid he misunderstood. I also have questions about that sentence. So Yicai did that, and I wonder who the subject of this sentence is? For example, if you are morally noble and knowledgeable, will the emperor hand over the regime to you? Otherwise, how can you "pacify the world"
Listening to his ruthless words, many people in the hall admired him, but did not dare to express it. Yuan Yueze did what they wanted but did not dare to do.
Yan Shigu's expression changed immediately. Wang Tong coughed dryly and said: So that's it. I think Lord Yan should think that the young master is not happy with Confucianism... The young master misunderstood. The correct explanation of this sentence in "The Great Learning" is not what the young master thought...
He immediately planned Yuan Yueze into an illiterate illiterate who didn't know how to pretend to be wise. On the other hand, he tried to reverse the topic. You must know that if Li Yuan misunderstood that Yan Shigu had a strange intention, he would really shoot himself in the foot.
Yuan Yueze laughed and said: The words are used for people to see, and how they understand them vary from person to person. As long as they are not improper, they have their rationality. For example, "The Doctrine of the Mean" says, "Therefore, great virtues must get their position and their salaries." I think this is a fantasy, do Wang Daru agree?
Wang Tong: The young master is indeed very eloquent. Then Wang asked you, a sinister person who is born in evil and devilish, what qualifications are there to talk about the profound Confucian thoughts? What reason is there to teach outsiders to believe him?
When he finished speaking, his forehead was already in his mouth and his body trembled slightly
Yuan Yueze thought to himself that Fan Qinghui gave you a look and you would die for him!
After giving Zhu Yuyan a wink not far away, she removed her spiritual power, and Wang Tong suddenly felt relieved.
Yuan Yueze smiled and said: It is said that Wang Daru once wrote the "Twelve Strategies of Taiping" by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, advocating "respecting the king's way, advocating the strategy, reviewing the past and verifying the present, and mobilizing the world at the hands of the masters and ministers". He was deeply praised by Emperor Wen, but when he was discussing the court, he was neglected and excluded, and began to lose confidence in the court and resigned from his post and returned to his hometown to give lectures. Do you do this? Is it consistent with the Confucian profound thoughts and consistent with the Confucian "gentleman" norms?
Wang Tong's old face turned red with anger, and his body began to tremble again, but he couldn't answer.
The gentleman mentioned by Confucianism is that those who are powerful do not follow them, those who are in a strong position do not follow them, those who are in a beautiful position do not deny them, those who are in a bad manner do not fear them, those who are weak do not deceive them, those who follow good friends, those who like and dislike abandon them, those who are in a long position will respect them, and those who are young will hide them.
Those who serve the people are content with their residence, those who serve the officials are responsible for their duties, those who are poor will not lose their righteousness, and those who are enlightened will not leave the Tao
Wang Tong did not fulfill his talents for the country due to personal gains and losses, which did violate the way of a gentleman.
Yuan Yueze grasps a key point in the debate: grasp one of the opponent's shortcomings, expand infinitely, and confuse the public
He did it
In fact, Wang Tong is not that bad. He advocates benevolent politics and advocates the unity of the three religions, and the use of poetry and politics and religion. The essays are based on the agreement, understanding, and sanctions, and advocates reforming the literary style.
It is in line with the trend of the times. Later generations regarded him as a representative of the Confucian school. His disciples respectfully called him Wen Zhongzi. But no one was perfect, and Wang Tong was no exception. He liked to seek fame. After returning home, he imitated Confucius' "Summary of the Six Classics" and taught in Hefen. When he was teaching in Hefen, he claimed that no one could deny his talent, but he could not ignore his flashy and impracticality.
Yuan Yueze continued to say: Which of them is from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Guan Zhong, and Kuang Heng of Qi State, is the best origin? Although I have different experiences from them, my nature is no different from Yuan. Someone in the Demon Sect. For several years, my son Zhu Yuyan has worked hard to amend the rules of the rules of selfishness and self-interest, and to delete the previous self-interested rules. Do you do this? Outsiders still want to beat them?
The hall is silent, and the needle can be heard
