"Beauty? How is that possible?!"
He was surprised at first, and then said with a look of disbelief,
"That girl has a very simple mind. She would never create a villain to curse anyone. Besides, even if she wanted to do such crooked things, she would have no way to learn them!"
Li Lizhi's image is the same in the minds of Li Shimin and Xu Fenglei, that is, a lively and cheerful little cutie.
How could such a girl do something sinister?
With her status, there is no need!
Those who know how to use the method of victory are usually angry and unable to confront them head-on, so they can only vent their anger behind closed doors by pricking the villain.
But who is Li Lizhi?
She is Princess Changle of the Tang Dynasty, the emperor's favorite daughter!
Usually when there is a grudge, it is avenged on the spot, and there is no overnight charge at all...
Therefore, Xu Fenglei definitely did not believe it.
"I don't believe it either, but this little man was indeed taken out by the queen from the Lizhi Palace."
Li Shimin whispered,
"She doesn't understand, but what if someone deliberately teaches her?"
Xu Fenglei's face darkened.
"Then we must find out this scourge!"
There was already a bit of anger in his tone.
Damn it, do you dare to spoil our beautiful little cutie?
As long as he is caught, he must be cut into pieces!
"I have sent people to arrest all the attendants in her palace and are examining them."
Li Shimin nodded and said,
"When you go to the East Palace later, ask her too. Remember, be tactful and don't hurt the child's heart."
"I will always believe that my beauty is pure and kind, and I will never do anything to curse others behind their backs."
Xu Fenglei nodded.
"Of course."
He accepted the order and suddenly muttered,
"It would be great if you could use this same feeling towards Cheng Qian..."
Li Er's attitude towards his eldest son and towards his youngest daughter are simply the same. Oh my God!
"What did you say?"
Li Shimin frowned.
"Nothing, nothing, I will leave."
Xu Fenglei quickly saluted and slipped away.
Li Shimin snorted softly and said to himself:
"Am I not good to Cheng Qian?"
"Strict is a bit strict. That's because Cheng Qian is the future heir of such a huge empire! How can we relax?"
"You know nothing! Humph..."
…
Noon, East Palace.
The four children sat in a row, looking up at the master.
"It's been a long time since I checked your "I Ching" coursework."
Xu Fenglei looked at Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Li Ke, and Li Lizhi, his eyes stayed on Li Lizhi for a while, and then he said,
"Smoke one today."
The four children all looked a little nervous when they heard this.
The "Book of Changes" was taught by Wude in his seventh year, and six years have passed since then!
If there had been a spot check in the first year of Zhenguan, a few of them would still be able to answer questions fluently.
But now it has been four years since Zhenguan!
To be honest, except for some key hexagrams, such as Qian hexagram, Kun hexagram, Guan hexagram, etc., which are still deeply remembered, some unpopular hexagrams have become blurred in my mind with the passage of time.
Who wouldn't be nervous when a spot check comes unexpectedly?
"Um?"
Xu Fenglei raised his eyebrows and said,
"Looking at the looks on your faces, you seem to be very embarrassed."
"Why, in the past two years, you haven't reviewed much or studied Yili in depth?"
"Didn't my teacher tell you that even after you have finished studying, you still need to review the past? After studying the "Book of Changes", you are just getting started. Only by reviewing the past can you learn the new!"
Da da.
As he was talking, a row of maids walked into the house carrying food boxes.
"Master, it's time for lunch."
The leading maid said respectfully.
"No need to open it yet."
Xu Fenglei waved his hand to signal her to retreat, then looked at the four disciples and said coldly,
"Today's spot check, if anyone can't answer the question correctly, he'll be in trouble! You don't have to eat lunch! Re-copy the "Book of Changes" ten times for me!"
Children: "!!!"
Smelling the tempting aroma of the food, their stomachs began to rebel.
If you don't give them food, it will undoubtedly be a kind of torture!
It would be even more torture if the brothers and sisters were feasting and I could only stand and read and copy the scriptures!
Now, all four children felt the pressure.
"Cheng Qian! You come first."
Xu Fenglei named him and said,
"Peel Gua."
Li Chengqian's heart skipped a beat and he said tremblingly:
"It's...Master."
"Pi Gua, Gen is on the top and Kun is on the bottom. It is quiet on the outside and smooth on the inside. Mountain Peel is also ranked after the Bi Gua."
"If you are extremely stubborn, if you make a big mistake, you will be stripped of it by means of a move. If you are stripped of it to the extreme, the world will be in chaos!"
"A gentleman cares about heaven, and a villain cares about people; a gentleman knows the beginning of things, and knows the profit and loss of everything; the villain does not see the beginning of things, and does not care about the profits and losses..."
Xu Fenglei nodded slightly after hearing his response.
"It can be seen that you are reminiscing about the past, which is good."
He gave a sound of approval and then said,
"However, you have now passed the stage of memorizing and superficial understanding. What you need to do now is to understand and realize more deeply."
"The Book of Changes teaches you how a gentleman should behave and how a villain should behave. This is not empty talk, but allows you to establish a 'conscience' in your heart, and use the judgment of conscience to make decisions and act, so as to achieve the unity of knowledge and action."
"This is the point, do you understand?"
Li Chengqian nodded repeatedly and said:
"My child understands."
"Well, let's go eat." Xu Fenglei waved his hand.
Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, although he forgot a few obscure ones, he still remembered the hexagrams well and did not forget them because they were high in sequence.
After giving Li Tai and Li Ke a sideways glance, he immediately ran to the dining table!
The chicken legs are all his!
"Ke'er."
Xu Fenglei glanced at the next one and said,
"Tell me about the Daguo hexagram."
Li Ke took a deep breath and his eyes were bright.
"The upper part is matched with the lower part of the sunda, it is pleasant on the outside and smooth on the inside. Ze Feng is greater than the hexagram!"
He said in a deep voice,
"The way of nourishment is Yi. After nourishment, there will be success. After things are completed, they will move. If they move, they will pass! Therefore, the Daguo hexagram is the preface hexagram of Yi hexagram."
"A big mistake has two meanings. One is that the mistake is too big; the other is that it is a big mistake."
"Those who are greater than others can achieve unparalleled achievements if the world slanders them without fear, and if the whole world knows them but has no regrets!"
Xu Fenglei's eyes were especially filled with approval.
"Okay! That's right! I like your confident tone as a teacher. You can see that this basic knowledge is very solid!"
He praised highly,
"Everyone in the world thinks that a big mistake means a big mistake and a bad hexagram, but they don't know that in this world, who can achieve great achievements and become great for all generations, who has never been criticized? Which one has not been criticized by others? Has he ever been criticized? Is there anyone who would not be misunderstood that what he did was a 'big mistake'?"
"A great person will never stop because of criticism from others! He will only move forward firmly towards his goal and do things that truly benefit the world!"
Swish!
On a whim, Xu Fenglei picked up a pen and wrote two poems on the paper——
Thousand pointing fingers, head bowed as a willing ox!
"Keep this poem in mind and always be a person with a strong heart. This is my teacher's advice to you."
He smiled and said,
"Ke'er is still as good as ever, go and eat! If it's too late, your big brother will finish the chicken legs."
Li Ke: "!!!"
"Thank you Master for the compliment!"
His whole face blossomed and he smiled extremely happily.
Being recognized by Master is even more satisfying than eating 10,000 chicken legs!
"Qingque."
Xu Fenglei's eyes fell on the little fat pig Li Tai and asked,
"Why, what's wrong with you?"
This kid has been twisting and turning since the food was served just now, and his eyes are still wandering.
At this moment, when I saw the two brothers feasting, I felt even more uneasy, and my thoughts were all flying away!
"Ah! No, no...Master."
Li Tai hurriedly shook his head and said,
"Tell me about the divination."
Xu Fenglei said.
"Ah... escape, escape..."
Li Tai panicked. Where could he have any ideas? I was already scratching my head.
But the more urgent it is, the harder it is to remember!
"Dun Gua! Don't you know?"
Xu Fenglei looked at him and sneered,
"Look, I caught the fish that slipped through the net."
"If you don't think of it, go and stand aside. You don't have to eat this meal! If you don't finish copying the "Book of Changes" ten times, you don't have to eat today!"
Li Tai: "!!!"
Plop!
This worthless boy knelt down directly to Xu Fenglei.
"Master! Master... I don't know, the kid is really hungry! You said you want to lose weight, but now the kid can only drink some gruel every morning, which is not enough at all!"
Xiao Fat Dun said in a crying voice,
"You let the child eat two, no, just one chicken drumstick. The child will definitely remember it right away!"
Xu Fenglei frowned.
"Want to cheat on food and drink again?"
He crossed his arms and said coldly,
"No! When will you answer and when will you eat?"
"My teacher believes that hunger will turn into motivation and bring out your strength."
When Li Tai heard this, his whole face wrinkled up and turned into a loofah of pain.
"Li Zhi, it's your turn."
Xu Fenglei looked at Li Lizhi and said in a deep voice,
"The hexagram of eating and drinking, let's talk."
Li Lizhi's eyes lit up.
"I can do this!"
She said proudly,
"It's moving up and down, it's bright on the outside and moving on the inside!"
"Master once said that there must be a gathering after the contemplation, and there must be a gap between the gatherings. This is eating. It ranks after the wind and earth Guan Gua."
"If there are strong obstacles or slanderous evils in the world, people's hearts will be distracted and alienated from virtue. This is the phenomenon of eating. To resolve it, torture must be used!"
"The way of criminal law is to distinguish between truth and falsehood. If you don't know what's not clear, don't move. If you act with clarity, you won't kill innocent people by mistake and let the bad guys go!"
Xu Fenglei nodded.
"Well said."
He touched Li Lizhi's head and said with a smile,
"The so-called punishment is harm. When you want to hurt others, you must clearly see whether he is a good person or a bad person."
"If you are a good person, you cannot accidentally hurt him. Even if you deal with bad people, you must use fair and just means to punish them. This is the right way to act with clarity and act openly!"
"The entire book of "The Book of Changes" explains how to be a gentleman, and a true gentleman is nothing more than two words - magnanimity!"
"A magnanimous person will never bother to frame or slander others with intrigues and deceitful tactics."
"Understand?"
"Yeah!" Li Lizhi blinked, looking serious.
Xu Fenglei stared into her eyes - they were a pair of clear eyes.
This made him even more certain——
Li Lizhi's behavior of stabbing the villain was definitely not spontaneous. It must have been induced and led astray by someone!
As for who has such sinister intentions, the truth will soon come to light.
"Let's go eat."
Xu Fenglei pursed his lips.
Li Lizhi jumped up and ran to the dining table. Passing by Li Taishi who was kneeling on the ground, she looked at the pitiful second brother and whispered:
"Tianshan, Tianshan..."
"Huh?" Xu Fenglei's ears twitched and he turned his head to look over.
Li Lizhi quickly jumped away and got on the dining table.
"Qingque, have you remembered?"
Xu Fenglei took out a ruler and said in a neutral tone,
"Would you like me to use this ruler to stimulate your pain and make it easier for you to remember?"
Li Tai: "!!!"
"No! No! Master... the child has remembered!"
He waved his hands repeatedly and said with a horrified look,
"Tianshan, Tianshan escape!"
"Strong on the outside and calm on the inside, this is the hexagram that escapes into the hidden world! It is the preface hexagram of the Heng hexagram!"
"The Book of Changes says: Things cannot last forever, but they will eventually pass away if they last."
"When a gentleman is doing things, if the villain in the world is in his prime, he will retreat. If he retreats quickly, he can preserve the Taoist tradition..."
Xu Fenglei nodded.
"Yes, what else?"
he asked again.
"And, and..." Beads of sweat began to fall on Li Tai's forehead.
He is in a hurry!
But I really can’t remember it!
"Are you still coming out?"
Snapped!
Xu Fenglei slapped Li Tai's fat claws.
"And the most important point! If a gentleman observes Dun Gua, he will know how to deal with Xiaoxiao!"
He said fiercely,
"Strong on the outside! Calm on the inside!"
"If you are too strong when dealing with a villain and scold him with harsh words and harsh words, he will become resentful. Only by being dignified and majestic can the villain be afraid and run away on his own."
"Why have you forgotten this most important point? How did you learn it!"
Li Tai was slapped hard and screamed, almost crying.
"Don't cry!"
Xu Fenglei scolded,
"Li Tai, your literary talent is the highest among your brothers and sisters. Previously, you often boasted about your photographic memory."
"Is this what you're capable of?"
"My teacher is warning you! A good memory is not as good as a bad writing! Don't trust your head too much! Sometimes it is not as smart as you think!"
"Today's spot check, you ranked last and failed! Do you know?"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu My kid knows." Li Tai rubbed his eyes with frustration on his face.
He thinks he is the smartest, but this time he is the one behind the wheel...
He couldn't even eat and was scolded by his master.
At this moment, Li Tai's world was gray, without any brilliance.
"Go back and copy the "Book of Changes", especially the Tianshan Dun Gua, copy it several times!"
Xu Fenglei hummed softly,
"Let's go eat!"
"If you don't eat it, all you'll have is chicken bones!"
Li Tai raised his head suddenly and ran towards the dining table without even caring about crying!
And Li Chengqian and Li Ke. Li Lizhi all shook the chicken bones in her hands and laughed at him!
"Save a chicken drumstick for me!"
Li Taihao said,
"You heartless people..."
Li Chengqian covered his mouth and smiled:
"We've finished eating the chicken legs, but we still have the chicken butts, here."
He handed over the chicken butt in his hand, his mouth full of joy.
Li Tai was about to cry but couldn't help but said: "...Okay, chicken butts are also beautiful."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took it and chewed it hard!
