Chapter Thirty-Seven: A Wise Man
Guo Shao praised Zhao Kuangyi, but no one agreed and no one paid attention to him. The loss and haze he exposed should be too ignored by people, and he did not even leave the minimum respect for him.
Only Guo Shao praised him, Zhao Kuangyi cast a look of showing good looks... But Guo Shao was just with Zhao Kuangyi, of course he didn't really think he was talented, because he didn't even hear clearly what poem Zhao Kuangyi wrote.
Somehow, this was the first time Guo Shao met Zhao Kuangyi, and he inexplicably disliked him. He didn't feel this way when he met Zhao Kuangyin in Gaoping. Maybe it was out of intuition, or maybe it was because the history books of his previous life gave Guo Shao a spoiler.
Zhao San (Zhao Kuangyi, ranked third, but the eldest brother of the Zhao family died early.) was later Emperor Taizong of Song. He was very incompetent in military force and had to castrate the military personnel so that everyone could be at the same level of inability to perform at any time and not pose a threat to his rule. Therefore, the checks and balances of civil and military affairs directly changed from one extreme of the Five Dynasties to the other extreme.
Everyone has improved from using a knife to a civilized society where people talk, and their verbal skills have developed greatly, and they have evolved exquisite theories that are difficult to understand. Through this theory, people can be speechless: a person who plays with his daughter-in-law tells everyone to destroy human desires.
There was also a group of men who shouted that women were obedient and four virtues, chastity was greater than life, and they deserved to die all over the place, leaving Princess and a large group of women as a benefit for foreign troops (so many people could run away, but Princess was not able to run away), and sat down to watch them get caught and play various games in turn...
Then, through the difficult-to-understand theories, we can infer the logic: we have no choice but to do so, and it is very beneficial to the country. We can comfort the fragile hearts of Jin Guo people who were injured by too little looting. After they have played enough with thousands of women in the Song Dynasty, they will lose the motivation to continue to invade the south.
This is Guo Shao's view of the witty men of Song Taizong. He only felt historical facts based on his intuition and the simplest truth. Those people were indeed very witty, trying every means to enjoy and consolidate the interests of the emperor and scholars, and play the world together... The literati and officials are also in charge of the public opinion in history, and naturally have a reputation in ancient and modern times, and can be said to have both fame and fortune.
The most important thing is that Guo Shao himself is a military general... If the emperor is Zhao Kuangyi in the future, let this emperor lead the military generals, Guo Shao would not feel that his life would be better.
So Guo Shao couldn't like this Zhao San.
...Xiang Xun's banquet continued, and the overall atmosphere was also very happy.
Zhao Kuangyin and others called each other brothers and persuaded each other to drink, and they drank very much. When Zhao Kuangyin was halfway through the wine, he was so excited that he wanted to wear a pair of pants with a general named Li Jixun.
The wine was drunk from noon to evening. After eating the two meals together, most of them were left. Zhao San wanted to send Zhao Kuangyin home; but Zhao Kuangyin was talking about his brotherly love with Li Jixun, and he was unable to part with it. He planned to go to Li Jixun's house to continue drinking, and then talk at night to have fun.
At this time, Zhao Kuangyin forgot what Gao Ping said. He originally said that he would have a drink and chat with Guo Shao after returning to Tokyo; but Guo Shao was obviously not an important person. Compared to Li Jixun... in his conversation, Li Jixun seemed to be the highest-ranking person among the ten brothers in Yishe.
Zhao San had no choice but to let his brother go and go home by himself.
Zhao San was only sixteen or seventeen years old and did not separate the family, so he lived with his brother Zhao Kuangyin. When he got home, he met his sister-in-law He. He asked his second brother why he hadn't come back. Zhao San replied truthfully: "The second brother has gone to General Li Jixun's house and may not go home tonight."
He did not dare to ask any more. This woman is usually virtuous and kind to others, but her personality is a bit weak.
Her mother's family is not a high-ranking family, and her father is just a small school at the bottom... Of course, when Zhao Kuangyin's father was hired, the Zhao family was also a match. But gradually, Zhao Kuangyin was promoted to the level of the palace's capital, which was already essentially different from the original class. The He family was weak and gave in to the people of the Zhao family everywhere, especially in front of the old lady, she was even more filial than her biological daughter. How dare she stop her husband from staying at night?
The Palace Front Office is not an army but a system, an institution that is parallel to the system of the Emperor's Guards. The position that Zhao Kuangyin is about to be promoted has become one of the most advanced military generals in the country, and is of great significance.
When the third brother Zhao Kuangyi thought of his brother and saw the weak and thin sister-in-law in front of him, he couldn't help but recall the scene he had secretly seen that he liked the most: a dark and tall man, desperately pressing a thin and white girl, and tossing hard.
Without seeing it with your own eyes, Zhao San was inexplicably excited just by thinking about it. An undetectable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Fortunately, he tried hard to hold it back, otherwise he would have to laugh.
Now He is in front of you, and your second brother is not here! Zhao San is shrouded in an unspeakable desire and cannot extricate himself. Second brother's woman! Original wife, the right wife!
Zhao San has an uncontrollable love for brothers’ things, especially the things that brother cares about.
Since his birth, Zhao San found that his brother had won everyone's praise. He could call on people around him to respect him wherever he went, but Zhao San was always ignored. While Zhao San admired and respected his brother, he felt that as long as his brother's things were good, it was a different taste!
If He was not his brother's wife and she was not pretty, Zhao San would definitely not have any interest at all. But she was his brother's woman!
Zhao San knew that such a wrong mind was very unpolite; there was no need to think about this kind of thing, it was obviously extremely risky and expensive... But Zhao San was already in an inexplicable excitement at this moment and could not extricate himself.
He was very scared, afraid that things would be exposed, but the more he was afraid, the more he wanted to do it. Even if he didn't put it into practice, it would be very wonderful to imagine the process of the plan!
After thinking about it, at least at this moment he thought it was perfect!
He remained silent and decided to put it into reality with a nervous mood... so uneasy and scared, but his heart was beating! The feeling of his heart beating faster was so wonderful!
"I came back because I was afraid that the people at home were worried about our brothers, so I made a special trip home and spoke. My elder brother was at General Li Jixun's house. I also met a former classmate at the banquet and met again. I was going to rush over tonight. My sister-in-law told my mother later." Zhao San said.
He said: "My third brother is still young, don't drink too much wine." She can care about her family, but she can't control it.
Zhao San nodded and turned around and went out.
This residence is Zhao San's home. He is so familiar with his own home. He is familiar with every vegetation, every wall.
Zhao San found a shorter wall behind the house. His fat body became very agile because of his excitement and easily sneaked into his yard. While it was not too late and his sister-in-law had not returned to the room, he planned to sneak into his sister-in-law's bedroom and hide in, waiting for an opportunity.
Although excited, the uneasiness lingers. Zhao San thought again: I said I was going out, but no one asked me if I was not in the room at night. When I slipped back, it must be that I was unaware of it. When my sister-in-law returned to the room, she would definitely lock the door and hide it in her bedroom first, which would save the difficulties and troubles of entering the room and would not cause any movement.
