Chapter 359: Misfortune Comes 3
Chapter 359 Misfortune Comes 3
Sima Ao listened indifferently.
Sima Xiang also told his son Sima Ao, in fact, being a historian is not boring, you will find that every dynasty has its own destiny, and we will all become passers-by in this land.
(This land refers to the earth)
Sima Ao listened silently...
In this way, the father and son talked for a long time before dawn, and then they went back to sleep.
After a long night with his father, Sima Ao felt comfortable and accepted the position of Taili.
Sima Aoping served as an official for five years. (Later)
After Sima Ao was demoted to historian, he could no longer live in Zuodu Mansion.
The new emperor took away Sima Ao's military power and demoted Sima Ao's official position. However, the new emperor gave Sima Ao a large mansion. This shows that the new emperor has no intention of driving Sima Ao into a murderous state, and he appreciates it from the bottom of his heart.
Sima Ao's talent.
If the power of the local government is too great and the military strength is too strong, it will gradually get rid of the control of the centralized power. If the central power loses control, the vassals and towns will establish themselves as kings, and the country will fall apart.
Since the An-Shi Rebellion, the national power of the Tang Dynasty has declined, the centralization of power has been weak, and various vassals have become dominant.
The new emperor was very afraid that the imperial power would be emptied out, so he stabbed Sima Ao just to consolidate the imperial power and intimidate him. Little did he know that his sword ended the Tang Dynasty. Because the imperial power was not consolidated, the military power fell into the hands of traitors.
Sima Ao will move to a big house soon.
The house is not as grand as the mansion, but it still has its style and quaint flavor.
………………………………
If he hadn't asked Ao Di to borrow money, Ao Di would not have let him paint this "Beautiful Land and Country", and Ao Di would not have been unjustly demoted.
Afterwards, Li Fulai felt deeply sorry for Sima Ao.
If he had not wanted to leave the Cuihua Building, Li Fulai would not have redeemed himself, he would not have gone to Master Zuo Du, he would not have painted "The Picture of Beautiful Country and Mountains", and if he had not painted "The Picture of Beautiful Country and Mountains", there would be no
What happened today.
When Li Fulai said this, Jingjing felt even more uncomfortable, felt even more sorry for Sima Ao, and felt that the whole thing had something to do with her.
In order to let Sima Ao out of his sorrow, Li Fulai took the initiative to invite Sima Ao, Jiang Min, Jiang Bin and Xiaopang to play, and of course Jingjing was indispensable.
This time, they are going to play in the wooden house on the hillside where they spent their happy childhood.
This was the first time Li Fulai met Jingjing after his marriage.
The two of them were obviously embarrassed and restrained.
Dongfang Yuer came to the wooden house on the hillside again, which made her unbelievable.
There are no signs of being eroded by time here. The trees are still so green; the stream is still so clear; the wooden house is still so brand new; the fence in the yard is still intact; the furnishings in the wooden house have not changed, and the things inside are still there.
After Sima Ao became a high school diplomat, he protected every plant and tree here!
Every year, money and manpower are spent on maintaining the wooden house, hiring workers to clean the fallen leaves in the yard, trim flowers and plants, etc.
When Sima Ao had free time, he would meet Jiang Bin, Xiao Pang, Li Fulai and others. They would gather here to recite poems, compose poems, play the piano and paint.
"Miss Jingjing, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Min noticed that Jingjing's eyes were red, as if something was sad.
"Jingjing, don't be too sad. You are so beautiful, and you will definitely find a better man." Jiang Min thought that Jingjing's eyes suddenly turned red, and she must have missed Li Fulai's marriage.
When Dongfang Yuer saw Jiang Min again, she found that Jiang Min had changed a lot; her face had lost the tenderness and playfulness of a girl; her figure was plump, her behavior was dignified and decent, and she looked like a proper lady; but her face was a little more sad.
Not only Jiang Min, Sima Ao, Li Fulai, Xiaopang, and Jiang Bin, but their faces have lost the tenderness and innocence of their youth, and have become mature and a bit more sad.
Jingjing smiled and said: "I don't know why, but it's the first time I've come here, and I feel a familiar feeling. Naturally, I want to cry."
In fact, Jingjing is also Mo Ran. She has been acting strange recently, and many of her behaviors are not her intention.
Being able to gather here with students again, Dongfang Yu'er was moved to tears naturally.
Sima Ao was also moved by the scene and walked around the wooden house and yard melancholy.
Li Fulai jokingly said to Sima Ao, "This place is still the same as it was before. Brother Ao, you must have spent a lot of money."
"This place remains as it was before, but we can't go back to the original state." Sima Ao sighed sadly.
Sima Ao's words made Li Fulai pause instantly.
Li Fulai forced a smile and said: "How could it be? Aren't we doing well now?"
"Yes, we will always be together." Everyone added while forcing a smile.
"How can we go back to the original state when my husband is gone?" Sima Ao said again.
Listening to Sima Ao's words, Dongfang Yu'er really wanted to show her true body to meet Sima Ao.
At this time, coming out to meet each other would definitely disturb the order of Sima Ao in the mortal world, and Dongfang Yu'er could not do this.
Dongfang Yuer only turned her longing for Sima Ao into a line of tears.
Going out to play, I wanted to make Sima Ao happy.
But he didn't expect that Sima Ao would be moved by the scene and miss Mr. Dongfang, which in turn made him even more sad!
I don’t know how to persuade anyone!
Just when everyone was wondering how to enlighten Sima Ao, Jingjing took out a guzheng and started playing it.
Then, fresh notes poured out from Jingjing's fingertips.
The sound is like a trickling stream flowing in the mountains; like drizzle on the banana leaves, it is lively and lovely; like the orchid in the valley, exuding a faint fragrance, making the listener relaxed and happy, and even in the painting.
middle……
The guzheng is silent when heard from a distance, but still lingers in the ears when heard up close.
Sima Ao listened to the clear and graceful sound, and looked at the beautiful scenery and Jingjing's graceful figure, feeling that his body was floating. It was as if he and his husband (Dongfang Yu'er) were entering a beautiful picture;
In the scroll, the husband is using spring water to treat his already exhausted spirit body.
Seeing Jingjing playing so subtly, Jiang Bin took out a jade flute from his arms with interest and started playing it!
The sound of the flute is melodious and soft, with a ray of sadness; it blows through the deep night sky; it blows down the peach blossoms; it seems to be crying out the love buried in the heart; it is waiting for a romantic event.
"You two play so beautifully! You play better than the musicians in the palace. Why don't you two become musicians in the palace?"
After Li Fulai entered the palace and became a painter, he only painted pictures and chatted with the empresses and princesses in the palace every day. He received many rewards and lived a very prosperous life.
Don't forget your good friends when you get rich, so Li Fulai suggested that Jiang Bin and Jingjing join the palace as musicians.
Li Fulai believed that with Jingjing and Jiang Bin's musical talents, the rewards they would receive would be no less than his own.
"We are happy and free, so we don't have to serve these royal family members and nobles."
Li Fulai didn't expect that his kind intentions would attract Jiang Bin and Jingjing to sneer at him.
"Okay, okay! You two are noble, but I am mean and vulgar. Just pretend I didn't say anything." Li Fulai was obviously a little unhappy.
In the past, whenever there were differences of opinion or conflicts, Sima Ao would act as a good old man and smooth things over.
This time, Sima Ao didn't try to be a good guy and smooth things over, but just watched silently.
Perhaps after experiencing this incident, Sima Ao was a little tired of the intrigues and intrigues in the officialdom, and felt a little colder in his heart.
