The best of the flood and famine

Chapter 131 Taigong Fishing, King Wen Qiuxian

However, he said that the imperial master Wen Zhong returned to the court and learned that King Zhou's absurd actions were so angry, so he went directly to ask King Zhou. King Zhou had no choice but to tell him one by one.

Wen Zhong saw that King Zhou admitted that he suddenly turned pale and purple. He pointed to the cannon and said, "Do you know the old story of Xia Jie in the past?"

King Zhou listened and didn't dare to say much.

Wen Zhong was angry, and his voice was a little louder: "Xia Jie built the Qiong room and the elephant corridor, created the cannon brand, and lost the hearts of the people. It was Shang Tang who got the help of Yi Yin and set up a soup foundation. The king is now extremely extravagant and eager to work. Loyal ministers are not allowed in the court, and the martyrs all go far away to the princes. Jiang Hengchu, the one who Chongyu of E, guarded the border for the country and tried his best, and the king listened to the words of the anniper and killed them all. After Jiang's virtuous virtue, since he entered the East Palace, he was fair and wise, and his mother was the world. He actually said one side of the words and branded his hands; he also killed his parents and children. If you are so rebellious, do you want to follow Xia Jie and break me into Tang Jiye?

The words were sonorous and loud. King Zhou was so disciplined that he didn't take a breath, but bowed his head and was silent.

When Zhong saw this, he forced himself to calm down, but after all, he was angry and criticized King Zhou. After that, he learned that King Zhou imprisoned Ji Chang first, and finally released him. He was even more angry. He asked King Zhou loudly, "The king has killed Ji Chang's son, why did he release Ji Chang?"

King Zhou listened and looked at Wen Zhong with fear. He replied, "Inside and outside the government and the field, the market is full of regrets for him. Although Gu is the king, he does not dare to force it. What's more, Ji Chang is known as a virtuous person, so you don't have to worry about it!"

Hearing this, Wen Zhong was furious and roared directly, "Does the king really not know that this matter is serious?"

King Zhou was roared by Wen Zhong, and his whole body was excited. He suddenly lost his temper and was silent again.

Wen Zhong immediately said, "Although Ji Chang has always been a virtuous name, how can he know that he is a deceiver of the world? This kind of thing is everywhere in the world, and if he holds a grudge in his heart and is righteous in Xiqi, my great businessman will be in chaos in the future. The king is the son of heaven, and he is talented. Although he should speak widely and not make the holy hearing deaf, he should think about it over and over again. Everything should not be influenced by the rumors and be in a mess. If Ji Chang is imprisoned now, even if the world has gossip, he doesn't dare to do anything. On the other hand, as soon as Ji Chang let go, Xiqi had the backbone. Even if it was not reversed, he said that His Majesty's power would definitely fight against him, and the trouble would continue!"

After listening to Wen Zhong's comments, King Zhou also knew that his treatment was very inappropriate, so he could only bow his head and be trained. Wen Zhong saw King Zhou like this and sighed faintly, but he didn't know what to say? Then go back

However, it is said that Jiang Ziya has been in Chaoge for several months. Bican and others know their talents and recommend King Zhou. However, King Zhou turned a blind eye and did not take on heavy responsibilities. Seeing this situation, Jiang Ziya left Chaoge. Hearing that Ji Chang, the lord of Xiqi, had a virtuous name, he went straight to Xiqi. After arriving at Xiqi, Ziya said to himself, "If you go to the Western Zhou Dynasty, I'm afraid it will be like the Shang Dynasty and not reused. It seems that you still need to wait patiently." Therefore, Jiang Ziya is convenient to live in the mountains, and he only fishes in Weishui.

There is a woodcutter in the mountain, named Wuji. Jiang Ziya is often seen. It has been said that he has been doing well for a long time.

On this day, Bukit came to Xiqi City to sell firewood. The road was narrow. When the firewood was changed to shoulder, the firewood fell off one side. The pole jumped up, hit a pedestrian next to him, and directly hit the ear door. The man died on the spot. It happened that King Wen was going out, so he asked why. After knowing the reason, although he was accidentally injured, he had to be killed. Then he painted the ground as a prison at the south gate, erected wood as an official, and banned Wuji here.

The princes in the world, the eastern, southern and northern dynasties are all imprisoned. However, because of the number of days of King Wen, the people did not dare to escape, so they painted the ground as a prison, and the people did not dare to escape. If he leaves, the king of Wen will play the number of days ahead of the day, calculate and take it, and double the guilt. Therefore, it is said that "painting the land is a prison".

Bukit was banned for three days because he missed his mother and cried loudly. San Yisheng saw that he was also filial and sympathized with him, so he reported this matter to King Wen. After King Wen learned about it, he also sighed in his heart, so he let Wu Ji go home to pay for his adoptive mother, coffins and clothes, and came back after the matter.

Wu Ji went all the way back to the mountain and happened to meet Jiang Ziya. Jiang Ziya couldn't meet each other for a few days, so he asked, "These days have not seen you. I don't know where they have gone?"

When Wu Ji heard this, he immediately thought of his manslaughter. In his heart, he was depressed, but he also wanted to find someone to tell him, so he told Jiang Ziya about his death.

Jiang Ziya listened, but smiled and said, "This is a small matter."

Wu Ji listened and thought about the meaning of Jiang Ziya's words. After a while, he finally understood it. Then he hurriedly cried and begged Jiang Ziya for help, and was willing to worship Jiang Ziya as his teacher. Seeing this, Jiang Ziya taught him a way, and indeed avoided Ji Chang's magic calculation. Later, Jiang Ziya asked Wu Ji to learn martial arts from him every time.

Ji Chang said that he had a good time. After counting, he actually forgot about it, and Wu Ji also saved his life.

One night half a year later, Ji Chang was sleeping at night.

At the time of the third update, in the dream, I suddenly saw a white-fronted tiger in the southeast, threatening wings, and pounced into the tent. Ji Chang shouted anxiously. He only heard a loud sound from the back of the palace, and the fire rushed to the sky. Ji Chang woke up and was scared into sweat. Hearing that there had been three updates under the stage, Ji Chang thought about the good or bad luck of the dream. He waited until dawn and then discussed.

It is said that the Wenwu came to the stage the next morning. Ji Chang asked, "Where is the doctor San Yisheng?"

San Yisheng came out of the class and said, "What's the call?"

Ji Chang said, "I had a strange dream at the third watch tonight. I dreamed that there was a white-fronted tiger threatening wings in the southeast. It rushed to the same account. I was so anxiously. I saw the firelight in the sky behind the palace, and I woke up with a loud sound. It was a dream. I don't know what's the good or bad luck of this sign?"

San Yisheng bowed and congratulated, "This dream is the great omen of the king. The king's minister of the pillar and the man of the great treasure. I really don't let the right of Yi Yin after the wind."

Ji Chang asked, "Why did you see this?"

San Yisheng replied, "In the past, Shang Gaozong once had a flying bear in a dream, and it was said that it was in the version. Today, the dream tiger has two wings, and it is also a bear. The fire after seeing the palace is the image of fire. Today, the West belongs to gold. Gold will see fire, and cold gold will become a great weapon. This is a great omen of the prosperity of the week, so I congratulate you very much.

After listening to it, the officials claimed congratulations. King Wen sent a decree to return and wanted to visit the sages in response to this omen.

Soon after, Ji Chang went to the countryside with Wenwu to share the scenery of the three springs. When I arrived at a mountain, the king and minister were on their way, and I saw a group of people singing and saying, "Remembering the past, when I was swept the soup, the eleventh expeditions began from Ge; the hall was righteous to the people, and the people were at peace. After more than 600 years, I wish the net Enbo will rest; the hanging meat is a cup of wine as a pool, and the blood of the deer platform is thousands of feet high. The inside is barren and the birds outside are barren, and the four seas are boiling and moaning; I, Cao, was originally a sea guest, and I washed my ears and did not listen to the sound of the subjugation of the country. It is said that chasing the Hongtao songs are vast, and the stars are fishing alone at night; the lonely fishing does not know that the heavens and the earth are wide, and the white head is bowing to the old heavens and the earth.

After listening to the fisherman's song, Ji Chang said to San Yisheng, "This song has a strange charm, and there must be a great sage hidden here."

Ji Chang ordered Xin Jia to say, "Please come and meet the sage of the song."

Xin Jia took the order, sat down and patted the horse, and said harshly, "There are sages inside. Please come out to see my thousand-year-old master."

Hearing this, the fishermen knelt down and said, "Are we all idle people?"

Xin Jia asked, "Why are you all idle people?"

The fisherman replied, "I go out to fish in the morning, and there is nothing to do when I come back on this holiday, so we are all idle people."

Xin Jia listened and was speechless. At this time, King Wen and Ma arrived, and Xin Jia hurried forward and said, "This is a fisherman, not a sage."

Ji Chang shook his head and said firmly, "The rhyme of the song is strange, and there must be a great sage in it."

The fisherman replied: "This song is not written by a villain. Thirty-five miles away from here, there is a stream, and there is an old man's tooth in the stream. I often make this song. We listened to it in our ears, so we sang it out. This song was not written by the people.

Ji Chang listened, his eyes lit up, and then said, "Please come back." The fishermen kowtowed.

King Wen immediately thought about the taste of the song and praised loudly, "What a person who washed his ears and didn't listen to the sound of the subjugation."

The doctor San Yisheng listened and leaned over and asked, "Who is the person who washes his ears and doesn't hear the sound of the dead country'?"

Ji Chang looked at San Yisheng doubtfully and asked, "Don't you know, doctor?"

San Yisheng shook his head and replied, "Forgive me for being stupid, I don't know the deep meaning of this sentence."

Seeing this, Ji Chang sighed and said, "This is the story of King Yao's visit to Shun Tianzi: In the past, Yao was a virtuous man, and he was an unworthy man. Later, King Yao was afraid of losing people's expectations. He visited in private and wanted to give up his position. When he went to the secluded and quiet countryside of the mountain, he saw a man leaning against the stream and turning a small ladle in the water. The king of Yao asked, "Why did the public turn this ladle in the water?" The man laughed and said, "I saw through the world, but I lost my fame and fortune. I went to my family and abandoned my wife. I left the door of right and wrong and abandoned the path of the world. Deep forest in remote places, salt and vegetables; Yile forest spring, with the end of the year, the wish of life is enough. King Yao was overjoyed when he heard this: "This man's eyes are empty for a lifetime, the glory of wealth and wealth, and the distance between right and wrong. He is really a hero! This throne should be given to him. The king said, "Sage! I'm not someone else, I'm the emperor. Seeing that the great sage is virtuous today, do you want to give up the throne of the emperor? After listening to this, he picked up the little ladder and crushed it with one foot. He covered his ears with both hands and ran to the river to wash his ears. While washing, another person took a year to eat water. The man said, "That gentleman! The cow is coming to eat water. The man only washed his ears, and the man said, "How much filth is this ear? Just wash it?" After washing, the man opened his mouth and replied, "Just now, Emperor Yao gave way to me and stained my ears; so I washed it for a while, and it was wrong for the cow to eat water." Hearing this, the man took the cow to the upper stream and drank. The man said, "Why did you leave?" The man said, "The water has been stained by you. How can it stain my cow's mouth?" At that time, the noble man was like this. This sentence is to wash your ears and not hear the sound of the country.

All the officials listened to Ji Chang talk about the rise and abolition of the first dynasty, and the remains of the country; the king and minister and horse uploaded a cup to share and have fun with the people. I saw some peach blossoms and plums, and the ducks and green geese were long; the warbler squeaked, and the purple swallows murmured. The wind blows and the tourists are drunk, and the scenery is unique in the spring. The king and minister are on his way, and he came to see a woodcutter writing a song:

"Phoenixes are not scarce, but the rule of the world is full of pollution; the dragons and clouds come out of the tigers, and the world cherish the search for the virtuous road. If you don't see Geng Xin Yefu, you will be happy with Yao Shun and Li Hao; if you don't meet Tang Sanshi, you will be hired, and you will be apprenticed with Jinglun in your arms. I didn't see my husband Fuzi, Xiao Xiaoli was sweet and cold; I didn't see Gao Zong's dream in those years, and Lin Yu was a Tibetan version of the earth for life. In ancient times, we have been virtuous and honored. How can we end up in the Water Margin? And the pastoral flute sings in the clear daytime, scolding Li Niu ploughing white clouds. Under the slanting light of the prince's wealth, he looked up to the sky and smiled at Mingjun.

Ji Chang and Wenwu immediately heard a very strange song; there must be a great sage inside, who ordered Xin Jia to invite the sages to meet.

Xin Jia took the order and patted the horse to come; he saw a group of woodcutters and asked, "Is there a sage among you? Please come out and meet my king." Put down the burden, and there is no sage in it.

After a while, King Wen arrived. Xin Jia replied, "There are no sages inside."

Ji Chang said, "Listen to his songs and wonder, there are no sages inside."

There is a saying in

: "This song is not written by me. Ten miles in front of me, the place is called a stream. Among them, there is an old man named Ziya, hanging poles in the morning and evening. Xiaomin and others come back with firewood. The stream rests and listens to this song day and night. Everyone gathered well, so they sang it casually. I don't know that the king is coming, and there is a failure to avoid it, which is the crime of the people.

Ji Chang was disappointed and said, "There are no sages, so you wait for the time being." Everyone went, and Ji Chang just missed him immediately.

I have traveled all the way again, and I can't get enough of it: the spring is bright and charming, the flowers and willows are beautiful; the red and green are added, and the earth is decorated. Later, I would like to ask you to drive back. Ji Chang was reluctant to give up, and he returned to the court with all the people.

Before dusk, he finally entered Xiqi and arrived at the palace court. Ji Chang issued a decree: "All the officials do not have to return to their respective palaces. They all stay in the palace and go to welcome the great sages together."

There is a general Nangong Jin's advice: "The brook fishing man may be a false name; the king does not know the truth, but he welcomes the invitation with a long salute. If it is exaggerated, the Lord Fei is sincere and is actually fooled by the fool. According to the foolish opinion of the minister, the lord does not have to be so careful; when the minister said, he would invite himself. If it is only in his name, it is not too late for the lord to add it again. If the false name can be scolded instead of using it, why do you need to see the Lord's house later?

San Yisheng listened to this and refuted loudly: "General, this is not the case. Fang is in the wilderness today, and the world is boiling; most of the sages and gentlemen are hidden in the valley. Today, the flying bear responds to the omen, and the elephant in the sky is specially given to the great sages to help our imperial foundation, which is also a blessing for Xiqi. At this time, he should learn from the ancients to seek virtuous people and break the habit of restraining qualifications. How can he sell himself like a sage? The general must not say such words and make the ministers slack off.

When Ji Chang heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "The doctor's words are exactly what I want." All the officials stayed in Xianting Zhai for three days, and then hired Ziya.

After the third day, he bathed in his clothes and was extremely sincere. Ji Chang sat in Luan and took the betrothal gift. Ji Chang set up a train and went to the stream to welcome his teeth.

Ji Chang led Wen Wu out of the country and came straight to the stream. Go to thirty-five miles and get to the forest early. Ji Chang issued a decree: "The soldiers stay under the forest for the time being. You don't have to say anything. I'm afraid to scare the sages."

Ji Chang diseed off his horse and walked into the forest with San Yisheng. He saw Jiang Ziya sitting by the stream on his back. Ji Chang quietly walked in front of him and stood behind Jiang Ziya. Jiang Ziya knew that he was coming. He pretended to be a song and said, "The west wind rises and flies from the clouds. Is it the end of the year? Five phoenixes sing, Allah appears, hangs the hook and pole, and knows that I am rare.

After finishing his work, Ji Chang recognized him as a sage in his heart, so he asked, "Is the sage happy?"

Ziya turned back and saw Ji Chang. He quickly abandoned the pole and bowed down and said, "Ziya doesn't know that the virtuous king is coming. If there is a mistake, I hope the virtuous king will forgive his sins."

Ji Chang hurriedly held his hand and said, "Mr. Jiumu, I have never met him before; Chang knows that he is disrespectful, and now he is fasting, and I am dedicated to him. It's a good thing to see your face. Life should be born to help the sages get up, and Ziya bows and stands; Ji Chang's smile takes Ziya to the cottage, Ziya worships again, and Ji Chang bows back.

Ji Chang said, "I've been looking forward to Gao Ming for a long time, but I haven't seen each other. Now I'm lucky to receive the Fengbiao and listen to the teachings. I'm lucky for Changshi's three lives."

Ziya said, "It's still an old talent, and it's unbearable to be a consultant; the literature is not enough to be safe, the martial arts is not enough, and the king of He Mengxian is in vain, and he humiliates Luanyu, and he has a negative intention."

Yisheng said in the side: "Sir, you don't have to be too modest. My king and minister Mu Yuqian, special Shen Weicheng, concentrate on hiring: today there are many, fixed and chaotic, when today's son works hard to reform, far sages and near gals, barren silver wine color, line abuse the people, princes become chaotic, and the people do not live. My lord thinks day and night, restless on the pillow; long admiration of Mr. great virtue, compassion for the hidden stream, special small employment, Mr. Mr. does not give up, together with the Ming Lord, my lord is very lucky for a lifetime, the people are lucky to say why the gentleman to hide the strange plan in his chest, to endure the charcoal of the people, why not show his feelings, mourn this □, out of the water and fire and put it to level? This gentleman's virtue is the benevolence of the world.

Yisheng put away the betrothal gift, Jiang Ziya looked at it, and quickly ordered the boy to accept it; Yisheng pushed Luan Yu and invited Ziya to Dengyu.

Jiang Ziya knelt down and refused: "The old minister, He Meng Hongen, was appointed with courtesy; he is still grateful, how dare he ride Luanyu? The more famous it is? I don't dare to do this.

Ji Chang said, "Set this in advance, Mr. Te Yu; you must ride and live up to your heart."

Ziya did not dare again and again, push back several times, and never dare to sit down. When Yisheng saw that Ziya did not obey, he said to Ji Chang, "The sage does not take advantage of the public opinion. I hope that the lord will follow the request of the sage: you can take the king Xiaoyao horse, and the lord will take advantage of the public."

Ji Chang then said, "If so, there is a number of devout people who lose their loneliness." They gave way to each other several times. Ji Chang was riding the public, and Zi Ya was riding the horse; the voice was full of joy, and the scholar Ma Xuanang. It was the auspicious day, and when Ziya came, he was eighty years old.
