Chapter 199 Prison Chapter (Main Story) 88: For Saint Longyan
Si Chengyou stood in front of Shen Yue again and began to look at Shen Yue.
Si Chengyou's eyes were sharp, and Shen Yue didn't give in at all. She had a feeling that if you don't obey, you won't be able to sleep.
Ten minutes later, the two were looking at each other and confronting each other, and No. 14 drank water to calm down.
Fifteen minutes later, the two were still looking at each other and fighting, and No. 14 was still drinking water to calm down.
Nineteen minutes later, Si Chengyou finally gave in, turned to the study, found a book, and said to Shen Yue, "Come here."
Shen Yue walked over and discovered on the 14th that there was an extra bedroom on the 36th floor where the person in charge of Building 5 was located.
No. 14 hurriedly followed him, fearing that Shen Yue would be deceived by the old man.
Then he saw Shen Yue lying peacefully on the extra bed, with a peaceful expression on her face, while Si Chengyou was beside him, holding a book of Analects in his hand, reading to Shen Yue in a very moderate tone.
This is what Shen Yue just said about storytelling.
"Three armies can seize the commander, but an ordinary man cannot seize the will."
"If a gentleman is not serious, he will not have authority, and if he is learned, he will not be solid. If he is loyal and trustworthy, he will have no friends who are inferior to himself. If he makes mistakes, don't be afraid to correct them."
"I can describe the rites of the Xia Dynasty, but I can't conquer them. I can describe the rites of the Yin Dynasty, but I can't conquer them in the Song Dynasty. There are not enough documents, so I can conquer them."
No. 14 was initially wary, fearing that Si Chengyou would do something strange, but as he listened, No. 14 was left in shock.
Is this storytelling? This is quite explosive in the entire storytelling world.
Si Chengyou read for nearly an hour before Shen Yue fell asleep.
When Si Chengyou walked out of Shen Yue's room, his face was filled with exhaustion.
He passed by No. 14 and just said, "You can rest on the sofa." Then he turned and went into the bedroom.
On the 14th, he recalled in his mind Shen Yue who used Building 5 as Building 7, and Si Chengyou who was called up in the middle of the night to "tell stories" to Shen Yue. He didn't know how to feel for a while.
At 8 a.m., Si Chengyou got up on time and went to the study room to start reading.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, Shen Yue also woke up. After washing up in the bathroom, she ran to the study room without treating herself as an outsider. She picked up a book with a red leaf bookmark on the desk, turned to the page with the bookmark and began to continue. look.
On the 14th, I noticed that the book Shen Yue read was called Historical Records.
No. 14 has heard of this book, but has never read it. First, he doesn’t have time to read it, and second, he doesn’t know what reading such a book can bring to him.
Shen Yue looked at it very seriously. As she watched, she would also discuss it with Si Chengyou.
"Si Chengyou, Zhao general Lian Po fought for the State of Zhao all his life, but was forced to travel to a foreign country, and eventually died in a foreign country. He was not trusted by the king for half of his life, but why did he miss the State of Zhao before he died? ?I want to use Zhao Ren, but I can’t understand it.”
Si Chengyou was also reading his own book. After listening to Shen Yue's words, he put down the book in his hand and replied, "This is Lian Po's love for his country and people, his ideal pursuit of the country's prosperity and the people's happiness." , this is the feeling of family and country, the sense of identity, belonging, responsibility and mission of the country. These feelings are not mixed with any interests, they are based on people's beliefs, and they are even willing to give everything for them."
Shen Yue didn't seem to agree. Her finger fell on the words "Historical Records" and said, "But I feel that the feelings of family and country are just a tool used by rulers to rule the people. For rulers, patriotism means loving them. For the ruled people, patriotism means loving the interests that they have realized and will still develop. This is the essence of patriotism and the feelings of family and country, isn't it?"
Si Chengyou listened to Shen Yue's theory and was silent for a while before speaking, "The ancient society of our country was a patriarchal society with the characteristics of the isomorphism of the family and the state. The structure of the state is the same as that of the family, resulting in the social structure of our country , has never existed independently of blood kinship relationships.
The awareness of family and country has given rise to the formation of feelings about family and country. The country is the environment where people live and grow. We are nourished by its natural endowments, cultural traditions, and language. We are attached to it and feel grateful. This kind of feeling It can make people integrate with the country and share the same fate with the motherland. Therefore, it will become a huge spiritual force and make people willing to contribute everything they have to the motherland. This is the spirit of patriotism.
The formation of the spirit of patriotism is related to the consciousness of family and country but transcends the limitations of the patriarchal hierarchy of family and country consciousness.
If you live high in a temple, you worry about the people; if you live far away from the rivers and lakes, you worry about the king; worry about the world first, and then enjoy the world; and the Zhao people you just asked about, I think they all have the feelings of family and country. Historical expression.”
Shen Yue blinked and seemed to have listened, but she didn't seem to have fully listened.
Shen Yue's last comment was, "You've said a lot, can you explain it more simply next time?"
Si Chengyou:......
"Don't ask me such difficult-to-explain questions next time, I can keep the story short."
Shen Yue stopped talking and continued to read historical records.
Si Chengyou also continued to read.
For a while, there was only the sound of flipping paper in the entire study. The conversation just now did not cause any waves between the two of them. It seemed that this was already a daily routine they were used to.
No. 14 stood quietly behind Shen Yue. He seemed to know what Si Chengyou wanted to do now. Although he didn't know what Si Chengyou wanted to get through this, all he could do was to stay with Shen Yue. She overcomes all difficulties together.
When he came back from lunch, Si Chengyou gave Shen Yue a bouquet of flowers.
Shen Yue was not surprised when she got the flower. She just asked, "What kind of flower is this?"
Si Chengyou explained, "This is a ranunculus, which represents nobility and sanctity and cannot be disturbed."
Shen Yue looked at the flower for a while, then reached out to grab the petals.
Si Chengyou knew what Shen Yue was going to do with just one glance, and gently pressed Shen Yue's restless hands with his fingers. "This kind of flower is not edible. It will cause diarrhea and slow the pulse. You can't touch it either, as it will cause inflammation." There are blisters. You should know from reading the Encyclopedia of Hundred Flowers before."
Hearing this, Shen Yue took back her hand, "I know, but you gave me this. I thought you wanted to make me feel uncomfortable on purpose."
Si Chengyou:......
"I just want you to see what these flowers really look like."
"Oh, can you send some edible flowers next time? The flower cake you made last time was okay." Shen Yue continued to push the envelope, which was something she would never do when facing Si Chengyou before.
"...Okay, I'll make it for you tomorrow."
In the afternoon, the two of them continued reading.
After reading for a while, Si Chengyou didn't know what he read, and suddenly sang two lines of Kunqu opera. From then on, he got out of control and was forced by Shen Yue to sing all afternoon.
Until the evening, Si Chengyou looked a little haggard, but Shen Yue said, "I drank tea again this afternoon. If I can't sleep, I will come over and find you."
Si Chengyou's expression was very complicated, "... Come on, I didn't accompany you every time you came here."
No. 14 stood aside, suddenly confused.
He did follow him because he was worried about Shen Yue, but now, he didn't know who he should be worried about.
