Song Dynasty

Chapter 121 Not Exaggerating (Part [-])
"I don't listen to hard advice, and death is unfilial, what should I do, what should I do?" Kong Xian's tears fell in strings.

Seeing him so sad, Lu Benzhong suddenly felt a little sad, sighed, and said: "Bo Yuan, as the saying goes, a son never speaks of his father's faults, so you don't need to say more."

"That's right, the son doesn't talk about the father's fault." Kong Xian wiped away his tears and said with a sob: "Master Lu, my heart is in a mess, but I don't know what to do."

"To be a son of man, you must be filial, but you can't blindly be filial and obedient. Filial piety is one of the etiquettes, but it's not all." Lu Benzhong said softly: "It also includes filial piety, loyalty, propriety, righteousness, and shame. Just do one of them well. , and neglect the others, is not a gentleman.”

Kong Xian shook his head: "Youzi said: He is also filial to his brother, and it is rare for him to offend his superiors; he is not good at offending his superiors, but he is fond of making troubles, which is rare. It is the foundation of benevolence! Filial piety to parents and love to brothers is very rare. It can be seen that this kind of filial piety is the foundation of morality and the root of benevolence. Students can't even do this well, but they can do it well other?"

Is this arguing with me?Lu Ben was unhappy in his heart, and laughed secretly, how can you argue with the old man.

He replied: "False, filial piety is just the correct attitude of children towards their parents. The reason for this is that when they are born, they first face their parents and brothers, and they face the small world of the family. Filial piety is the behavior of this small world. Rules and etiquette. When a person grows up, the world a person wants to live in is not just a family, but a big world. The family is only a part of the country, and the ethics and morals of the family must abide by the country, loyalty, benevolence, Faith and other rules of etiquette. How can they be neglected because of filial piety?"

"Besides, the etiquette in this world is not static. For example, in ancient times, people drank blood like hair, sons married their mothers, fathers accepted daughters, and the rules often collapsed. But when a sage came out, there was a moral code that everyone must abide by; in the Spring and Autumn Period, There is also the theory of national sacrifices and human sacrifices, which are also defined as national rituals, and later replaced by pottery figurines as benevolence."

"Etiquette in the world will vary with the times, and they may not all be correct."

"Sages don't have to rush to talk about things. It can be seen that some etiquette laws are not applicable to any situation at any time."

"Some things are right in terms of etiquette, but it may not be a good thing when they are actually done. I naturally know what to do and what not to do in my heart, so why bother?"

Speaking of this, Lu Benzhong continued: "Boyuan, I don't know what happened in your family, so I don't know how to ask. However, as far as I know, you are the eldest son in the family. The so-called elder brother being a father means that besides filial piety, there is also a Tizi, take good care of your brothers and sisters, and do your own thing well.”

"Yes, I have to take good care of them. I must..." Kong Xian murmured: "Etiquette, shame, loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, wisdom and trust, everything is important. Thank you Master Lu, thank you Master Lu."

After all, he bowed deeply to the ground and saluted respectfully.

After sending Kong Xian away, Lu Benzhong frowned even tighter, thinking of Wang Shen's letter from Feige just now, he thought to himself: Could it be that something really happened to the Kong family? The gap between Kong Yanzhou's father and son split the Kong family army, could it be... civil strife...

He walked out of the study suddenly and shouted: "Xiaotao, and the rest of you, come here, two things."

……

"Two things, the first one, I have been serving you for a few days, and I am very satisfied. When this matter is over, the old man will give you an explanation, accept you as a concubine, and follow me to Lin'an."

Surprised, the women knelt on the ground together and expressed their thanks with tears in their eyes.

"Second thing, go and find out what happened to the Kong family right away."

"Yes, sir."

……

"Beast!" Lu Benzhong angrily threw the teapot in his hand to the ground, and this Mr. Daode finally got really angry.

After the concubines came back, he knew everything, and his hairs stood on end in shock.

This old bastard even molested his own daughter, so he deserved to wear that human skin.

If this thief is not eliminated, the old man will be in vain.

That's right, the one who was molested was the second Miss Kong who was promised to Wang Shen. The most wonderful thing is that she is also Kong Xian's younger sister who was born to the same mother.If Kong Yanzhou's claws reach out to Kong Lin again, hehe, this excitement will be something to watch.

Maybe this could be used as an excuse to turn the Kong family father and son against each other.

Wonderful!

"Si..." All of a sudden, Lu Ben's heart moved, "Just now when Chen Da left, Wang Shen's letter arrived. Could it be that he also came to Qichun? This warrior is really courageous... Also, he It seems that he knew about the Kong family's affairs long ago, and his plan was to split the Kong family's army, how did he get to this point... this Wang Daosi, he can't see through, he can't see through!"

Lu Benzhong slowly sat back on the chair, holding the rosary on the table and thinking about it.

**************************************************
After all, it was an army trained by Zongze Zong Rulin, and the camp of Kong Yanzhou army was very densely packed.The Qichun North Camp in front of us has two thousand soldiers stationed there, and it is where the elite of the Confucian army resides.

The core of Yingpan is a small village with a population of [-] households, and there is a small river beside the village.Relying on the river and the houses in the village, watchtowers and archery towers were set up in Beiying, and fences were built, and Juma and deer villages were placed.

Although 2000 people were not many, they were divided into several pieces by Chidao.These galloping paths are also winding, preventing the enemy from breaching the camp, and instantly piercing through the camp.

"That's right, that's right, Kong Yanzhou still has some strength." Wang Shen took twenty riders forward like a spring outing, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Grandpa Zong is a great talent, but it's a pity that he returned home without accomplishing his great cause. Otherwise, this The situation in the world will not be as chaotic as it is today."

Including Hu Yantong, the cavalry were all from the left-behind division of Tokyo, and when Wang Shen mentioned Zong Shuai, he felt sad.

The Western Army in the Northern Song Dynasty fought wars, and they paid attention to fighting first.There are strict regulations for formation, attack, pursuit, and daily camping and drills.This is especially true for Zongze. In real history, after Yue Fei joined Zongze's army.Zong Ze also gave Yue Fei a map for him to study carefully.

Yue Fei didn't care about it, and he didn't take seriously the Song army's conservative and rigid tactics. He replied: "The art of war is common after the formation; the skill of using it is all in one mind." , How can you conquer the world with just a few formations?

Kong Yanzhou's army was influenced by Si Zongze and the Western Army who stayed behind, and this camp was also well-arranged.If you rush hard, you won't be able to rush in at all.

Wang Shen: "Remember, I didn't come here until now. One is to find out the real situation of the enemy, and the other is to let the Kong thief see what kind of hero our Sizhou army man is. He didn't come to fight with them. Say hello at the gate of the enemy camp and leave, the thieves must have bows and crossbows, everyone needs to be careful not to be shot by them."

"Follow the general's order." Everyone responded abruptly, but they didn't agree in their hearts.

Qin Sizhao, who was on the battlefield with his father for the first time, was even more excited.
