Work overtime

Chapter 361 You have many masks

What?Another 2000 points deducted?

In the past few days, the emperor's favorability points have skyrocketed by more than 2 points, and finally reached almost 10 points, and he can receive system rewards immediately.

Jiang Yuebai blinked and asked tentatively, "I'm hungry, why don't you chat while we eat?"

Li Beichen's mouth curved slightly, with a bit of a bad smile, "I might as well eat you."

Jiang Yuebai closed her eyes and simply gave up, "I am the emperor's concubine anyway, so you can eat whatever you want."

Then he suddenly opened his eyes and blinked, "Since we have to eat morning and evening, it's not just for a while, why not let me eat something first, and then"

"Then what?" He stared at Jiang Yuebai, his eyes darkening.

"Then take a shower and change clothes, and apply good-smelling spices. Just like a roasted suckling pig needs a layer of honey to taste delicious." The smell of roasted suckling pig came to Jiang Yuebai's mind, and he continued to change the topic, "There must be a ceremony. Feeling, it has to be full of color, flavor and taste, what’s the point of gobbling it up. Right.”

Anyway, it can be delayed for a while.

Li Beichen wanted to say, you are now full of color, flavor and taste, and it looks delicious.

The words on his lips turned into, "Have you ever tried to eat meat and drink alcohol?"

When Jiang Yuebai organized a team building trip to the Bashang Grassland in his previous life, he held a bonfire party and tried eating a lot of meat and drinking a lot of wine. It was quite good.

There has never been such a bold time in Jiangnan in this life, and the focus is on refinement.

After thinking for a while he replied, "No."

With this interruption, Li Beichen's emotion, which had just reached its peak, dissipated unknowingly and became a little depressed.

"Is it fun to tease me?"

He came close to Jiang Yuebai's face, kissed her lips hatefully, and whispered softly, "You are so naughty and always tease me."

Jiang Yuebai secretly groaned inwardly. The little suckling pig was going to be smeared with honey and roasted on the stove.

The kiss lasted for a long time, letting out all the complex emotions Li Beichen had accumulated.

He left her lips and whispered, "Jiao Jiao."

"Ah."

Jiang Yuebai looked at Li Beichen in confusion, letting him pull her arms up to his neck, his mind went blank.

Li Beichen pressed a kiss on her forehead: "Let's have something to eat and then take you to a place."

"Okay." Jiang Yuebai was dazed, as well-behaved as a little rabbit.

People are knives and servants, and I am fish and meat, so be it.

Li Beichen took her hand and returned to the desk filled with wine and food.

They sat at the same desk, huddled together.

He couldn't help but whisper: "Jiao Jiao."

She replied in a low voice, "Yes."

He turned his head and kissed her on the forehead, "Call Master."

"Master." She lowered her eyes obediently.

Seeing that she refused to raise her eyes to look at him, Li Beichen leaned back slightly angrily, resting his elbows on the ground and said, "Feed me a drink."

"Yeah." She picked up the wine glass and handed it to his mouth.

He threw his head back and drank.

"More."

I thought she would continue to say "Yeah" meekly.

But she straightened up, knelt on the ground, picked up the wine bottle on the desk, and held the spout to his mouth.

Directly through irrigation?That's all she can do.

Li Beichen was stunned for a moment, then slowly opened his mouth towards the slender spout of the wine pot.

Her hand was a sword hand, incredibly steady.

It's unbiased, it won't be too late to swallow, it won't choke, and the flow rate is just right.

But this is not good.He wanted something unexpected.

Li Beichen pretended to move his elbow and accidentally swayed back, causing the wine to pour on his face and chest.

When Jiang Yuebai was stunned for a moment, he took the wine bottle from her hand with one hand, pulled her into his arms, and pressed her against his body.

Meeting her panicked eyes, the two of them stared at each other for a long time, a different kind of emotion spreading.

Li Beichen wiped the drink from his face, sat up with Jiang Yuebai in his arms, and said in a hoarse voice, "It's your turn to drink."

Jiang Yuebai said obediently.

Li Beichen poured a glass, and Jiang Yuebai drank a glass.

Li Beichen has a drink with you.

No one spoke, no need to speak, just silently picked up the wine glass and drank one glass after another.

Both of them gradually became a little drunk.

They looked at each other and smiled, keeping everything in mind.

Li Beichen didn't kiss her like he did before drinking. He just drank happily and enjoyed the long-lost relaxation.He has lived in uneasy tension since he was a child, and it is difficult for him to relax.

This time, Jiang Yuebai plays the piano and Li Beichen dances the sword.

Jiang Yuebai didn't play the piano very well, and he was a little drunk now.

She also played "House of Flying Daggers", and Li Beichen played it fluently. She played it intermittently, and even made a mistake in one place. She simply made a mistake and got away with it.

Li Beichen danced with sword in the hall, relying on Jiang Yuebai's excellent piano skills.

He is not like Jiang Yuebai, who plays multiple roles.

He was always the victor Liu Bang, blowing the horn, marching in formation, chasing and intercepting Xiang Yu, forcing Xiang Yu to death, feeling sorry for Yu Ji, returning in triumph with high spirits.

The entire sword dance is full of magnificent and vast atmosphere.

When Li Beichen sheathed his sword, he sarcastically said to Jiang Yuebai: "Aside from the good song "House of Flying Daggers", your piano playing is not so bad. It almost made me go crazy."

"Aside from your Gan Jiang Sword, your swordsmanship..." Jiang Yuebai swept his fingers on the guqin and snorted coldly.

Li Beichen raised his eyebrows and glared at Jiang Yuebai, "Is it terrible?"

Jiang Yuebai curled her lips and said, "It's hard to put it into words."

"How come you can't express yourself in one sentence?" Li Beichen and Jiang Yuebai were crowded side by side, looking at her sideways, "You don't usually talk like this."

Jiang Yuebai smiled back, "The emperor usually doesn't talk like this."

Li Beichen asked pretending to be casual, "Is it your mask usually, or is it your mask now? You seem to have more than one mask."

"You don't have more than one mask." Jiang Yuebai asked rhetorically.

"Learn from me again."

"You are the master."

Li Beichen turned Jiang Yuebai to face him, staring into her sparkling eyes, "Which of your masks is you?"

"All."

Li Beichen sighed: "Both of them? Don't you think it's ridiculous? They're just like two people."

On the surface, he was talking about Jiang Yuebai, but in fact, he was talking about himself.

Jiang Yuebai shook his head: "It's not surprising. Everyone is destined to be unable to be their true self, especially in the palace. Everyone has three selves."

"Three mes?" When Li Beichen heard this statement for the first time, he immediately became interested.

Jiang Yuebai did not expect to talk about the psychodynamic theory of Freud, the originator of psychoanalysis, in ancient China.

She cleared her throat, recalled the psychology knowledge she had learned in her previous life, and carefully counted her fingers one by one.

"I am divided into id, ego and superego. The id is innate, represents various desires and impulses, and respects the pleasure principle. The ego is the me who adjusts according to the external environment and acts in accordance with the reality principle. The superego is the moralized me , the ideal me follows norms, ethics, values, and acts in accordance with moral principles.”

At this point, Jiang Yuebai stopped and said, "Do you want to continue listening?"

"continue."

Jiang Yuebai lowered his eyes and looked at his fingers, "The superego and the id are opposites. Most of the virtuous kings in history acted according to the superego, that is, they governed the world according to the moral principles of the sages of the past, cherished the people, and restrained themselves. .

In establishing Ji Suiyou, the emperor must assume the sacred laws for the emperor and the people, and help the people obey the great road.There are constraints from ideals and morals, so life is tiring.The foolish kings in history acted according to their own selves.Because of the supreme power, when the constraints of the superego are ignored, the desires of the id are released and the person acts completely in accordance with the pleasure principle. "

Li Beichen thought carefully about Jiang Yuebai's words and turned to look at Jiang Yuebai.

"So a king who is neither good nor bad is one who follows the self-principle and acts in accordance with the reality principle. Seeking a balance between nature and morality, or is it different at different stages of life, such as Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty?"

Jiang Yuebai was filled with admiration and couldn't help but praise, "Master is mighty. That's exactly what it is."

As expected, he is the Son of Heaven, the favored son of Heaven. He understands the newly learned knowledge at a glance and can quickly reason and extend it.

"Is it difficult to understand?" Li Beichen curled his lips in disapproval, "It's just a reasonable guess."

He then approached Jiang Yuebai suspiciously and stared into her eyes, "Where did you see this theory? Why have I never heard of it?"

Jiang Yuebai automatically turned on the make-up mode in front of the leader, "When I was in Jiangnan, I listened to a very wise monk. The monk also said that the real liberation is selflessness. Selflessness means that there is no more self. My boundaries, the three me’s no longer exist, or in other words, the three me’s are unified.”

The following statement about "selflessness" is purely improvised and mysterious.

Jiang Yuebai didn't expect that such an ambiguous scene today would turn into a sit-down discussion.

The Ming Dynasty respected Buddhism, so Li Beichen had been involved in Buddhism since he was a child. Hearing Jiang Yuebai's words, he fell into deep thought and suddenly had an epiphany. He raised his head and looked at Jiang Yuebai:
"This is the first time I've heard of this theory. It's very interesting. Selflessness means that the three selves are unified together. Ideals and morals are no longer constraints on me, but have become my instinctive desires and impulses. Do the right thing It’s no longer a matter of morality constraining me to do something, but what I want to do in my heart. Jiaojiao, is that so?”

"I...I don't know. I only know a little bit about Buddhism. Buddhism teaches that there is no self, dependent origin is empty, cause and effect are continuous, and my nature cannot live. That is what the emperor said, ideals and morals are no longer constraints. See Self-nature is the Tathagata.

Not only me, but the world is a product of temporary aggregation, in an endless void of achievement.So it’s not surprising that there are many mes, and there are even big differences between me and me.I am just one of many living beings. "

After Jiang Yuebai finished speaking, he smiled shyly, "Who would have thought that 'the desert returns to the straight smoke, the long river sets the sun' and 'the bright moon shines among the pines, the clear springs flow up the rocks' and 'even if you die, you can still smell the fragrance of the chivalrous bones'." "Millions of Masters" was written by the same person? I'm just talking nonsense. Master is laughing at me ~ hahaha~"

Many people in Jiangnan believe in Buddhism, and Jiang Yuebai's family has also believed in Buddhism for generations. She once followed her father to Xiyuan Temple in Suzhou to listen to eminent monks giving lectures.So I have a certain understanding of Buddhism, but I have not studied it deliberately.

Just like the Poetry Buddha Wang Wei's poems have various styles and rich and varied artistic conceptions, but each type has famous lines and good chapters, all of which are Wang Wei and Wang Mojie.

"Jiaojiao, did you realize this yourself?"

Li Beichen twirled a strand of Jiang Yuebai's hair that was scattered on his shoulders, played with it around his fingertips, and the gentleness in his eyes was like water.

"That's right." Jiang Yuebai nodded, tilting his head and looking at Li Beichen, "You drink too much and talk nonsense, which is too shallow."

There was all kinds of confusion in terms of names one night, and they were called whatever came to mind, just like their identities.
