How to solve problems when practicing the Tao

Chapter 121 Zixuan
"Why are there so many vacant seats here?" Sima Zongheng asked the teacher as soon as he sat down. "Didn't you Tailou receive the order from Emperor Qi? Are you going to disobey?"

"As for disobedience, where did it come from? Didn't senior Sima see that we have representatives from Tailou here?"

"I remember that Emperor Qi ordered all Tailou to come here. Tailou sent representatives, what is it if it's not disobedience?" Ouyang Shi said.

"They each have their homework, so they can't go out today." Ziqiu said.

This sentence gave Sima Zongheng an excuse to attack Tailou.Anyway, it has been found out that Feng Junyi is not there.

"So, does Tai Lou think that schoolwork is more important than Qi Huang's oral instructions?"

"Of course not." Ziqiu shook his head.

"Then why do you dare to disobey orders?" Sima Zongheng scolded angrily.

"'Zi said: In the country of a thousand chariots, be respectful and trustworthy, be frugal and love others, and make the people timely.' For our students, this 'time' is reading and studying, and learning is more important than attending banquets." Ziqiu Said.

"It's a joke, the king's life should come first. If you disobey the king's life, you should be punished."

"'The Master said: "If his body is upright, he will follow orders; if his body is not upright, he will not follow orders. '" Zilu answered.

"You dare to slander the emperor, you are really brave!" Hu Xiaodie also said.

"When will I slander the emperor?" Zilu asked.

"Just now you said that Tailou disobeyed orders because the emperor was not upright!" Hu Xiaodie said confidently. "Isn't this slander?"

"I think you're all mistaken. What Zilu means is that the Sima family's chancellor is not upright, and everything they do is chaotic, so we don't follow!" Zixuan said suddenly, and the atmosphere of the banquet suddenly dropped to freezing point.Everyone present knew that Sima Zongheng issued all the orders, so what does it have to do with Qi Huang?
"It's okay, it's okay, let's start the meeting first." Qi Huang acted as a peacemaker.

But Sima Zongheng would not let Qi Huang get confused at this juncture, and said angrily: "It's fine if the world doesn't understand us, you scholars, how come your views are the same as those ordinary people, don't you know, if there is no Sima family, the devil The tribe has already attacked, so why are you talking about reading and studying and enjoying peace?" This remark was a bit shameless, and it was repeated again and again.

Everyone knows what happened during the past five years when the Sima family was in power.

"So, if we can enjoy peace for several years, we should also thank the Sima family?" Zixuan asked.

"It's natural."

"It's so good. Our Tailou happened to have a plan recently, and that was to attack Nanchu." Zixuan said suddenly. "I also ask Senior Sima to help me and send troops to crusade against the demons."

"???" Sima Zongheng was at a loss when he heard Zixuan's words.The Sima family has never thought of unifying the plight. Their current strategy is just to plunder as many plight resources as possible.But as soon as Zixuan's plan was said, Sima Zongheng felt a little regretful, because no matter how he expressed his position at this time, it was a kind of pressure on himself.

Say no support, lose popular support.But if you want to talk about support, where can you support yourself?

"This matter has too much to do with it, we need to discuss it again." Ouyang Shi intervened to save Sima Zongheng.

"What's the matter with you here?" Qin Xiaoying glanced at Ouyang Shi, looking for a beating?Well the scars forget the pain?Do you dare to say one more word, believe it or not, and I will knock out your other teeth?

Ouyang Shi had already been beaten by Qin Xiaoying that day, and he couldn't let go of his temper, so he immediately kept silent.

"Qin Xiaoying, you are so majestic. How dare you act presumptuously in front of Emperor Qi?" Hu Xiaodie said for Ouyang Shi.

"Oh? What's the matter with you here? You, a brothel woman, can sit here already to give you face, and you still want to stand up for others? Don't even look at who you are!" Qin Xiaoying was hugging today. Feeling disturbed, he is not very angry, so what's wrong with Hu Xiaodie's beauty?Anyway, for Ouyang Shi, who looks like a villain at first glance, he must have no good intentions.

"You..." Hu Xiaodie's aggrieved eyes were full of cruelty, and she stomped Jinlian's feet angrily.

Qin Xiaoying, I will let you be arrogant for a while longer!
"We came here not to discuss with you, but to inform you."

"As for what the demons think, we don't care." Zixuan said.

"Presumptuous! Do you still have a sense of the big picture in Tailou?" Sima Zongheng was a little annoyed, Feng Junyi was fine when he was there, why did Zixuan suddenly change so quickly, and was about to send troops to attack the demons?

Obviously, they have already signed a non-aggression agreement with the demons. If something happens to Tailou at this time, this agreement will be wiped out.Of course, the demons will regard Tailou's actions as the actions of the Sima family, and carrying out the same countermeasures will have a greater and worse impact on the entire layout of the Sima family...not to mention that Beiyan also has the second elder Just stare, if something goes wrong with me here, and I report to the family, I am afraid that the elder myself will be the end.

He was a little afraid to think about it.

He must never agree to this matter!

"Seeing the big picture? Of course we have! Senior Sima killed three of my Eastern Qi officials in the street. We still remember that if we didn't have a big picture, we would never have flinched back then!"

"I made a mistake..." Sima Zongheng just wanted to explain, but when he saw the half-grown boy in front of him, he was only a young man, so he thought what to explain to him, and said in a firm tone: "If you don't back down, what can you do?"

"Since Emperor Qi chose Tiegong Temple to hold a banquet today, I would like to ask Senior Sima, do you know who Tiegong Temple commemorates?" Zixuan picked up the folding fan and played with it in his hand.

"Hmph." Sima Zongheng didn't speak.

"Since Senior Sima doesn't know, I'll tell Senior Sima about the origin of the Tiegong Temple." Zixuan said.

"About 1000 years ago, on the fourth day of the lunar new year, the emperor of the Great Zhou hid in the East Qitai Building, and the world was in chaos. The king of Northern Yan Yan sent troops to Yiqiu, known as 'Jing Nan'. At that time, there was Tie Xuan, a Confucian scholar in the Tianji Camp, the predecessor of the Tianji Army. The "Shui Mian Pavilion" in Hunan of the Ming Dynasty vowed to resist the Yan army and protect the safety of the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty. The king of Yan attacked 36 cities in the Eastern Qi Dynasty and stopped in front of Yiqiu. The city was about to be flooded. So Tie Xuan led the crowd to feign surrender and put a jack on the gate. When King Yan entered the city, he almost killed King Yan. Designed to trap Tie Xuan. In front of the Emperor of the Great Zhou, Yan Wang ordered people to cut off Tie Xuan's ears and nose, boiled them and stuffed them into his mouth, and asked him how he tasted. Tie Xuan said: "What's so bad about the meat of a loyal minister and a filial son?" ?' After Yan Wang Ling Chi Tiexuan, he took the emperor away. To commemorate Tiexuan, later generations built Tiegong Temple in the place where he swore to be a master."

Sima Zongheng asked with a sneer, "What's the point of telling me this? The Emperor of Great Zhou is long gone now."

Zixuan said: "Senior Sima, I mean, in Eastern Qi, people have always had Tie Gong in their hearts. And the reason why Tie Xuan's reputation has been passed down through the ages, isn't it thanks to the King Yan who tortured and killed him? The few people who were accidentally killed by the seniors in the past may live in the hearts of Dongqi people forever like Tie Gong in the future, and my lord, I am afraid that they will get a bad posthumous posthumous posthumous title in the historian's pen like that King Yan. "

Qin Xiaoying didn't know why Zixuan wanted to talk about Tiegong Temple, but after listening to Zixuan's words, he understood his intentions. This is sincerely disgusting Sima Zongheng.

In fact, people's mentality has reached Sima Zongheng's place, and the only thing they want is fame and fortune.

Li, Sima is not short of vertical and horizontal, but what about fame?

If Zixuan really said so, and recorded his name as Sima Zongheng in the history books of Eastern Qi, Sima Zongheng would really become a generation of evil and sycophants through the ages.

"what do you want?"

"As I said, Tailou will send troops to attack the demons." Zixuan stared at Sima Zongheng and said.
