Datang: I am so happy to marry a disfigured princess!

Chapter 178 Chu Suiliang has an epiphany!

Although it is estimated that getting married to Li Ningxi will take a long time, Lin Heng is still quite curious about this matter.

It would be a good idea to first understand what kind of life it is like so that you can have some daydream about it.

As for the two people in Cheng Huaiyi and Yuchi Baolin's family, they have no reference value at all. After all, the way the military general taught his children was there.

When asked about this, Gao Jingcheng couldn't help but blush.

"I and Princess Gaoyang have treated each other as guests since we got married, and our lives are quite relaxed and comfortable."

"In the beginning, the princess and I didn't have much in common. We could only talk about trivial matters in life. But after getting along for a long time and getting to know each other better, I would spend more time with the princess on weekdays. Gradually, My feelings will get better."

Gao Jixi couldn't say much, so Lin Heng was curious, so he told Lin Heng a little bit. This is how the two of them got along. Lin Heng can figure out the specific details by himself.

After listening, Lin Heng couldn't help but start thinking.

The customs of the Tang Dynasty were relatively open, but even so, women did not have much communication with men before leaving the court, and the same was true for princesses.

After being appointed to a marriage by the emperor, I probably only knew what the other person looked like, what his talents and abilities were, and there was no detailed contact or communication with him at all.

There is naturally a transitional period after marriage.

It is rare for people like Lin Heng to meet and chat with the princess almost every day.

So, I have gone through that transitional period, and what is coming to me is a beautiful married life?

What should I do if I look forward to more and more?
"Sure enough, I knew I could get useful advice from Brother Gao. I asked Cheng Huaiyi before, and my life after marriage was simply miserable!"

Gao Xingcheng smiled and then said: "It's always unreliable to ask him about this kind of thing. If it's about leading troops in a war, maybe he will know better."

Chu Suiliang asked curiously from the side: "Consort Lin asked about this, is it possible that he will marry Princess Runan soon?"

Lin Heng shook his head: "It's not that fast. I'm just a little curious. After all, you are all married. It would be good to learn more experience."

Chu Suiliang couldn't laugh or cry: "Consort Lin and Princess Runan have such a good relationship, they will definitely not have too many bad feelings when they get along in the future. Besides, who can tell what will happen in the future? It's better to wait and see."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's drink and drink. This time Brother Gao comes back. He is probably going to be promoted, right?"

Gao Xingcheng nodded and said, "I am going to the palace today to meet the Holy Spirit. His Majesty has granted me the title of Minister of Household Affairs. Nowadays, there are a lot of affairs in the Household Department. I don't think I will have much time for this in the future."

"Then congratulations, I respect you for this cup of Wenmin..."

"Brother Gao, it's time to celebrate..."

The three of them exchanged glasses until late at night. Lin Heng's drinking capacity was average and he stopped when he could no longer hold on. There was his carriage outside the door, so he took the carriage back home.

Gao Jingcheng, both of whom were civil servants, came out of a wine shop. They seemed very drunk at the moment, but they were still thinking very soberly.

Moreover, Chu Suiliang still remembered what Lin Heng had asked him to do, so he naturally took control of it. After bidding farewell to Gao Xingxing, he returned to the room with the stack of papers.

The candles were lit in front of the table, and a cup of tea was poured. After sobering up for a while, my attention turned to these articles.

Lin Heng's literary talents are always reflected in his poetry accomplishments, and these alone made Lin Heng recommended by countless people in Chang'an as the number one talent in Chang'an.

There are people who specialize in arts. Some people have very high attainments in poetry, and some people have very high attainments in writing. It mainly depends on the direction of focus. Lin Heng knows that his writing skills are average and he asks him to help. This is not an expression of generosity. Naturally, It can reflect the importance Lin Heng attaches to these students.

Moreover, Chu Suiliang was quite accomplished in this area, but it didn't take much effort to write some articles by scholars.

"It seems that Prince Consort Lin gave these students the topic to write the article. It seems that the writing technique is quite unfamiliar. I don't think I write articles often, but I can still see the intention." "With the will of the people and the world. It is somewhat interesting to explain it, and it also adds the reasons and inevitability of inheriting the literature of saints, and the final purpose is to make the world a better place..."

"It's not bad. It seems that the title of this article is quite ambitious..."

He casually browsed through the content of the article, and then took out the first page. The title of the article was written at the beginning.

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth?"

Chu Suiliang's breathing suddenly stagnated. Originally, he read these articles without any expectations, and he also had some loose emotions in his heart.

But when he saw that sentence, the smell of alcohol disappeared suddenly, and he couldn't help but study the sentence several times before looking down.

Establish a destiny for the sake of the people.
Almost instantly, countless figures of people from all over the world flashed through Chu Suiliang's mind, which made his scalp numb immediately.

What exactly is this?
"Inherit the unique knowledge for the past saints, and bring peace to all generations!"

Chu Suiliang was murmuring with his eyes in trance. Until this last sentence, his voice immediately became ups and downs, and his hands could not help but tremble, as if he had seen something.

He studied Confucianism throughout his life, read through Confucian classics, and often delved into one thing.

Is it possible that knowledge is just for governing the country?Is it possible that the ultimate goal of a scholar is to become an official?

He always feels that this is not the case. Once you study Confucian literature intensively, you will be able to understand more things, cultivate yourself, regulate your family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world. Today's Confucian culture is always stuck in governing the country. No one can do it. Make a breakthrough at this point and sublimate it to the level of peace in the world.

Isn’t it already good to govern a country?It is said in universities that when a country is governed, the world will be peaceful, so isn't the world of peace the end point?

But Chu Suiliang always felt that above this, there must be some more advanced level that could reach the pinnacle and make up for the shortcomings of the existing Confucian classics.

Peace for the world!

His body suddenly shook, he stood up suddenly, looked out the window at the bright night sky, and couldn't help but be lost in thought.

All the past events are vividly visible, including the development of Confucian culture in the Tang Dynasty, the improvement of the legal system of the Tang Dynasty and the appearance of the people under the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

The picture is like a horse watching flowers, and finally stops in a vast sea of ​​​​stars, where centuries of dynasty changes, thousands of years of vicissitudes of life, and thousands of years of struggle have passed.

The development of history has determined that the long-lasting union must divide and the long-lasting union must unite. Even as bright as the Tang Dynasty, it will one day disappear in the long river of history. Peace in the world is by no means the end!

What is eternal is the eternal truth, which is the method that opens the door to peace for all generations!
When you establish your mind for heaven and earth, what kind of mind do you establish?

When you establish a destiny for the sake of the people, what destiny do you establish?

How can we reach the point of inheriting the unique knowledge for the saints mentioned in this sentence, and thus reach the point of creating peace for all generations?
Isn’t this the highest ideal of a scholar?

Chu Suiliang fell into deep thought.

This is something that takes a very long time to think about, maybe a day, maybe a year, maybe he will never be able to think about it at this level in his entire life.

But now that he has seen the scholar's end point, all external objects seem to have ceased to exist, and he just wants to think.

But no one could tell him how to think and where to go. For a moment, Chu Suiliang's eyes moved to those articles.

Maybe he can get some inspiration from this...
