Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 2346: Betel Nut Meeting on Shishu

More than a dozen health servants came out, and they were in groups of four, carrying a large three-foot-square tray, on top of which was like a pyramid, stacked with a tall module, not just made up of hundreds of large betel nuts. Is it a pyramid-like fruit plate?

There was a burst of laughter in the hall, and many people began to discuss: "Ah, this is betel nut. It is for consumption. I have eaten so many delicious foods today, and I am using it."

"Gong Li, do you really don’t know? This is Liu Changshi’s revenge. He was insulted by the Jiang brothers, but the Jiang brothers said that he was not well-known and could not even eat food, so there is no need to eat this specially. Where is Yu Xiaoshi’s betel nut?"

"Ah, there is such a past, is this the shame of the year that Liu Changshi and his wife just said?"

"Yes, the Jiang brothers knew that his father wanted to recommend Liu Muzhi at this banquet. Out of jealousy, they deliberately used this betel nut to humiliate Liu Changshi. They also said that he hadn't stopped eating. After that, I came over to eat the meal at my wife’s shamelessly. Why don’t you want to bring some food back to their sister to eat betel nuts? If I was humiliated like that back then, I would have the heart to die. ."

"Oh, every family has scriptures that are hard to recite. The Jiang brothers are notoriously inadequate. It is no wonder that Duke Jiang would rather carry this son-in-law back then. Liu Changshi is really capable and no one recommends him. He is a literati. Even in the army, he can still be today."

"That also depends on Liu Yu. If it wasn't for Liu Zhenjun’s success in Jianyi, I’m afraid he would be a mid-level military official, and he had returned home because of the disbandment of the Beifu Army. It is true that he has completed the upper post this year. There are many things. But people are holding their heads to their lives, so there is so much fierceness."

"Yeah, wealth and wealth are in danger. Today, Liu Changshi can relax his grievances for many years here. He can in turn let the two brothers-in-law eat betel nuts. It is not only trying to make progress, but also desperate."

"The children of our aristocratic family are ruthless. It seems that if you want to follow these ruthless people in the future, you have to improve in this respect."

Hearing these remarks, the Jiang brothers blushed and almost wanted to find a place to get in. Liu Muzhi looked at them calmly and said: "Abo, Alang, today I asked you to eat betel nuts, not simply to avenge the humiliation of the year. You are like me, and I don’t expect to be middle-aged. It’s just that I need to pass these plates of betel nuts today to talk to the princes present about my psychology of Liu Muzhi."

The surrounding discussion gradually subsided. Everyone returned to their seats, sitting and holding their breath. The audience fell into silence for a while. Liu Yu also walked to the corner of the hall and stood shoulder to shoulder with Jiang Qianwen, looking at Liu Mu. It.

Liu Muzhi looked around and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, you are alive. Because of your different backgrounds, you will have different circles of your own. Normal life and communication are also with people with similar status, property, and power. Over time, It will form a high-ranking family and a great number of sentient beings under the sky. The so-called high-ranking people without low-ranking people and low-ranking people without scholars are not without its reason."

"The Yueren songs that Liu Zhenjun and I sang have existed since ancient times, and there were no family members at that time. However, during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, there were also kings and generals, and the people at that time had no chance to get ahead. Until the Qin and Han Dynasties. When they met, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang called out the generals of Wang Hou, which truly shaken the reincarnation of power, wealth and wealth since ancient times."

"Because most people at the bottom of the hierarchy lack talents and knowledge, but there are many in number, and high-ranking families will come too easily because of their wealth and wealth. Generally speaking, the inheritance of nobility can only be given to the diaries and diaries. Sun, the concubine and the non-prime son, will gradually become ordinary people because they cannot attack the nobility. But these people are not necessarily the same as the real bottom-level heads of Guizhou and have no education. On the contrary, they are not high in their status. I can’t inherit the family business, but I have a sense of crisis, and I’m more willing to study hard and acquire skills. Take our Dajin as an example, many of those who are now in high positions are the kind of middle- and lower-level scholars, I Liu Muzhi was cheeky and admitted to be one, Mr. Tao Yuanming Tao just now was also one, and today's Danyang Yin Mengchang, and Xu Xianzhi from the army general's mansion are all of this background, but everyone knows their talents. ."

Everyone can't help whispering: "Yes, it really makes sense."

"Even in the big family, it is often the concubines and nephews who work harder and are more motivated. We didn't think deeply about this before. Hearing what Liu Changshi said, it is really the case."

"It's still the ancients saying well, born of sorrow, and died of comfort."

Liu Muzhi’s eyes were piercing, and he continued: “But aristocratic families also have their merits. The most important point is that family masters often have a collection of books for many generations. We can learn Chinese and read poetry since childhood. Books rely on these family studies. These need to be accumulated ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, except for the real kind of swingers who have not learned since childhood, most of the children of the family can still learn and paint. Enough to govern the country. Even if you said just now, those military officials recruited in the general shogunate of the town generals who only collect rents and recruits, as long as the children of the family are willing to put down their bodies, get rid of their flashy air, and do it in a down-to-earth manner. Some practical things are equally competent."

Having said that, he looked at the Jiang brothers and said with a smile: "It's like my two brothers in law. Their abilities, presumably all of you here are also clear, if you follow the standards of scholars, you can talk about mystery and chant poetry. Fu, those who play with romantic talents, they are not in the eyes of you at all. You have always laughed at them for being silly, saying that they rely on my relationship in the march, and you look down on them in your heart, not because they have no scholars Are those recognized literary talents?"

"But it's these two dynasties that you look down on. They entered the army and used what they learned to count ordnance, distribute rations, and write official documents. These real things to be done in the army are meticulously accomplished. They also did an excellent job. It is not that I, Liu Muzhi, forcibly brag about their merits, but that they did a good job in Liu Jingxuan’s army. These merits are also the rewards they deserve. At most, I recommend them to join the army, but In the end, the merits and rewards were obtained through their own efforts. Since Liu Zhenjun founded his righteousness, everyone has known that everything is a clear distinction between rewards and punishments, and there is no way of humanity. If my two brothers can do things, I I believe that all the children of the noble family will be able to do it as long as they are willing to do it seriously!"
