Chapter 121 Book Offering
Last time, we talked about Li Yi, Shi Yu, and Lin Fan officially establishing the Confucianism, Taoism, and Legalism School. So what new things will Li Yi come up with next? Let's take a look.
Before Li Yi and Lin Fan parted ways, he assigned Lin Fan an assignment, asking him to open up his mind. When Lin Fan first heard it, he was confused and had no idea what it meant.
Li Yi explained: "After you finish reading the textbook, take time to reread the history books, put yourself in the position of a commoner, a minister, and an emperor to analyze the pros and cons of the same event, try to interpret the wonderful games buried deep in the text, and write a book "Lin's Notes on the General History" and show it to me."
Lin Fan understood that Li Yi's intention was for him to write a book and prepare for the fourth-grade great scholar realm in advance, so he did not delay for a moment and immediately took action...
That night, Li Yi brought Shi Yu to justice for her "betrayal". The execution was so brutal, as evidenced by the poem:
One layer of ice and fire, one layer of heaven, half is suffering and half is madness.
The claw marks in the forest are not sharp from the tiger, but the sharp teeth that penetrate three feet into the wood.
I am not afraid of the wind and snow that freezes everything, I am only afraid of the sleepless night under the flowers and moon.
But just ask where to find freedom, and sigh at the bliss between clouds and rain.
In short, after Li Yi's loving education, Shiyu completely realized her mistakes and admitted the seriousness of the problem. After repeatedly apologizing and begging for mercy, Li Yi let her go and let her reflect on herself. Then Li Yi came to Concubine Zhao's room.
Han Feng rubbed his eyes and asked, "Why are you still here at this hour? I won't serve you."
Li Yi sighed and said, "I'm not asking you to serve me, I'm asking you to help me apply medicine!"
Han Feng asked in surprise: "Apply medicine, are you injured?" She quickly turned on the light, and Li Yi took off his shirt. The blood marks on his back and teeth marks on his shoulders were shocking.
Lady Zhao practices dancing all the year round so she always has some medicine for injuries. She took out the medicine box and applied the medicine while mocking, "So you were kicked out by Sister Shiyu. Look at your injuries. Sister didn't show any mercy this time. She hit you, no, she bit you really hard! Look at these two rows of teeth marks, there's blood! So how did you offend her this time?"
Li Yi said calmly: "She was the one who begged me to leave. You said that as if I was very afraid of her. You can ask her tomorrow if she dares to help others to plot against me!"
Han Feng said in a sarcastic tone: "Yes, yes, my husband is the most powerful. Everyone is afraid of you. Sister Shiyu is most afraid of you."
Li Yi said unhappily: "If you don't want me to sleep here with you, I will leave after applying the medicine. If Bailing doesn't want to keep me, then I will sleep alone. Don't think that I can't sleep without a woman!"
Zhao Hanfeng smiled and said, "Okay, you can torment me, but why do you have to torment all three of them? That's enough."
After applying the medicine, Lady Zhao put away her medicine box and lay back on the bed, saying with a smile, "You are so grown up, but you act like a child. Why don't you call me sister and I will tell you a story and coax you to sleep."
As she spoke, she held Li Yi in her arms like she was coaxing a child. Li Yi smiled evilly and said, "Sister, I don't want to listen to stories. I want to eat White Rabbit!"
"Oh!--"
The next day, Shiyu, who always got up early, did not get up for the first time, and did not have breakfast with Li Yi, Bailing, and Han Feng. Bailing asked in surprise: "What happened to Sister Shiyu? Are you sick?"
Lady Zhao smiled and said, "No, no, maybe someone's animal instincts went mad last night, so someone got into trouble."
Bai Ling looked at Li Yi, who had a calm expression, and asked, "Husband, what's going on?"
Li Yi said expressionlessly, "Your sister Shiyu teamed up with a few kids and that Lin Fan to plot against me yesterday, so I taught her a lesson. It also serves as a lesson for you two. You three are the three people I trust the most in this world, so I have no suspicion of you at all.
She is so good that she helped outsiders to plot against me! I have made it clear today that if I find out that you two have similar behavior, I will kill you without mercy!"
Lady Zhao laughed and said, "Who is really miserable? I don't know who came to me last night and asked me to help apply medicine."
Bai Ling asked, "Ah? You two fought? Are you seriously injured, sir?"
Li Yi said unhappily: "What do you mean by whether I am seriously injured or not? Why do you think Shiyu's injuries are less serious than mine? She only suffered internal injuries!"
Zhao Hanfeng covered his mouth and laughed, "Yes, yes, yes! Internal injuries!"
Bai Ling finally reacted and said, "Oh, you two are such idiots, you have no shame! Husband, can't you be more polite and stop tormenting us!"
Li Yi said to Han Feng: "Listen, Bai Ling is resentful and blames me for not torturing her!"
Lady Zhao smiled and said, "Okay, next time you mess with her, just don't bring me along. I don't want to be covered in bruises and need to rest for a long time before I can recover."
Bailing blushed and reached out to grab Han Feng: "How dare you laugh at me, you heartless man!" The two of them started to make a fuss. Li Yi really liked the ladies playing like this.
At this moment, Shiyu dragged her tired body over, and the three of them immediately returned to normal, sitting at the table and trying not to laugh. Shiyu was so smart, how could she not see the little thoughts of the three of them? She straightened her body and slowly sat next to Li Yi and said, "Husband, please take a leave for me today. I feel a little unwell."
Bailing and Hanfeng were laughing secretly, and Li Yi replied seriously: "These are all trivial matters, you just stay at home and recuperate." Zhao Hanfeng wanted to make a few jokes, but was rebuffed by Shiyu's sharp eyes. Bailing tried hard not to laugh out loud.
Li Yi said calmly: "Do you know you are wrong? Do you dare to plot against your husband again in the future?"
Shiyu's mood was very complicated. She was scolded by her man in front of her two younger sisters. They were all adults and knew what was going on. Tears welled up in her eyes. There was shyness, anger, pride, and resentment. Many emotions intertwined together and finally gathered into tears, slowly sliding down her beautiful cheeks.
Shiyu didn't say anything. Bailing and Hanfeng also realized the problem and felt that Li Yi had gone too far. Bailing coughed, Li Yi looked sideways, and Hanfeng used his eyes to signal Li Yi to look at Shiyu.
Li Yi glanced at them and thought, it's over, I'm in trouble now, how will this end? Li Yi winked at Bailing, Bailing shook her head, he winked at Hanfeng, Zhao Hanfeng said he was unable to help, Li Yi glared at the two of them.
Lady Zhao sighed and raised her voice and said, "My husband, you are going too far! Apologize to Sister Shiyu!"
Bai Ling chimed in, "That's right, it's just a snowball thrown at your face, what's the big deal? You're acting like a little kid, so unmanly!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yi also raised his voice and said, "This is not a snowball problem!"
Shi Yu slammed the table and stood up, shouting, "What's the problem? I just played a prank on you with the kids. It's not a big deal. If it really came to a life-and-death situation, would I still betray you? You are just making a fuss and taking this opportunity to get revenge!"
Li Yi gave Bai Ling and Zhao Hanfeng a look that suggested they take advantage of the situation. The two of them understood what he meant. Lady Zhao also slammed the table and said, "That's right! Mr. Li, if you are like this, then I have misjudged you. You are narrow-minded. You are nothing but a talent or a gentleman. It's a waste of Sister Shiyu's love for you."
Bailing also slapped the table and stood up and said, "That's right! Sister Shiyu works so hard for our family, but you treat her like this. I can't stand it. Tell me, am I wrong?"
Li Yi looked at the two and asked, "Are you two overacting a bit?"
Shiyu burst out laughing, and Bailing said embarrassedly: "I don't know what to say, I can only act according to your meaning."
Zhao Hanfeng said, "That's right. You asked us to help you with this matter. What else can we do except act like this? Help Sister Shiyu beat you up?"
Shi Yu laughed and said, "Forget it, forget it. You three, I really don't know what to say to you!"
Li Yi smiled and said, "My dear, if you don't know what to say, then don't say anything. Can I sing a song for you to ease the awkward atmosphere and express your feelings at this moment?"
Bailing clapped her hands and laughed, "Okay, okay, you two have been busy with the Imperial College recently, and I haven't heard my husband sing for a long time."
Zhao Hanfeng smiled and said, "You'd better sing and dance at the same time, so that we can all be satisfied!"
Li Yi picked up the guitar and said, "It may be too early to sing this song now, but I think it suits us who are growing up now. It may be different to sing it when we are old in the future. I will sing it for you first." The three of them showed expectant eyes. Li Yi tapped the beat and then plucked the strings and sang:
Spring larks, autumn maples, and summer rain of poetry
When I was young and melancholy, I never had such extravagant hopes
The windmill turns every day in the song of the four seasons
In the poems of wind, flowers, snow and moon, I grow up year by year
The flowing water takes away the story of time and changes a person
In that sentimental and first waiting youth
The yellowed pages, the neat handwriting and the faded ink
I'm afraid you've already forgotten the song I wrote for you when I was young
The vows made in the past are like the colorful bookmarks in the book
It depicts so many beautiful poems, but it is ultimately just a puff of smoke
The flowing water takes away the story of time and changes us
In that sentimental youth when I first shed tears
The long journey, yesterday's dream, and the distant laughter
We met again, how far have we come?
I am no longer the old me, with the old crazy dreams
It's not the you I knew in the past, with the same smile
The flowing water takes away the story of time and changes us
In that sentimental and first recollected youth
The flowing water takes away the story of time and changes us
In that sentimental and first recollected youth
The reason why classics become classics is naturally because of their unique charm. No matter how time passes or how years go by, when the melody sounds again, people will always hum along. Luo Dayou's song is of this style.
When people sing again in middle age, they will definitely have a different mood. Li Yi's singing now gives Shi Yu and the other two a feeling of anticipation, looking forward to growing old together as a family and reminiscing about their youth.
Lady Zhao said in annoyance: "My husband, we are still young, why should we sing a song about reminiscing about our youth!"
Bailing smiled and said, "My husband, you can write such a sentimental song. I never thought that your unruly personality would have so many emotions."
Shi Yu smiled and said, "My husband is very thoughtful. Sometimes I feel like he is an uncle who is much older than us. What he sees and thinks is different from us. I guess it is for this reason that the teacher values him so much. He is mature at a young age or he is too cunning."
Li Yi muttered in his heart: Precocious at a young age? Too cunning? In my previous life, I was just a 28-year-old boy. You call me uncle? It's not appropriate to call me uncle according to Shiyu's age, but it's okay for Bailing and Hanfeng to call me uncle. I am indeed much older than you. The memories of the two lives add up to 48 years old. Although it can't be calculated that way, I have experiences that you can't even imagine, and I know things that you can't understand. Well, let me keep this mystery.
Li Yi smiled and said, "Actually, I am a very emotional person. Otherwise, where would I get so many poems and songs?"
Shi Yu looked at Bai Ling and Zhao Han Feng and suddenly said, "Why don't we give my husband a child?"
Bailing and Zhao Hanfeng spit out the tea in their mouths at the same time. Shiyu asked, "What's wrong? As a wife, isn't it natural for you to give birth to a child for your husband? Why are you two reacting so strongly?"
