Chapter 441: Rites


The north is beautiful.The beauty of the north is often not only the fragrance of birds, beasts, insects and fish, plants, trees and flowers, but also contains beyond these embellishments.If the landscape is a painting, then the ink color of the northern landscape is splashed with ink and spontaneously extended.The silhouette itself is vast and atmospheric, and it does not need to be carved, revealing a kind of pure beauty.Especially in autumn, when the trees wither and the colorful colors fade, the heavens and the earth return to their most primitive appearance, and the skills of the painter of nature are vividly revealed.White mountains and black waters, desert snowfields, or boundless, or ups and downs, these lines are all full of rough charm, making people in it, indulge in wildness, no longer constrained by the cramped framework, indescribable comfort.Therefore, the northerners who grew up in this world often don't need to say anything, and they have a sense of pride when they stand there.Ren Zhen was a human being in both lifetimes, and he lived in the south of the Yanyu River, and he couldn't appreciate the majestic atmosphere of the north, nor could he enjoy the mellow aroma of liquor and fat.However, leading tens of thousands of cavalry to gallop on a wild horse in the wasteland is undoubtedly a very hearty experience.Out of the Dragon City, the army went all the way to the north, looking at the extreme eye, all this vast scene, the horses were galloping happily, and the people's mood was also released, and there was no fetters.After three thousand miles of clouds and moons, after a wonderful journey, this strange army gradually approached Beihai County.Wu Daosi, a native of Beihai, acted as a guide this time, briefing Ren Zhen on the strength of nearby prefectures and counties, and proposing that he should break through from the weakly defended northwest corner.Sure enough, the army quietly infiltrated the territory, and in the early morning, it successfully surrounded Beihai City, ready to launch an attack at any time.According to Wu Daosi's speculation, the main force of the rebels has moved south, and the guards in the city should not exceed 20,000, which is weaker than Ren Zhen in terms of strength, and it is not impossible to attack strongly.However, Ren Zhen and Wu Daosi coincided, and both believed that they could not rely on brute force to fight hard, and they must be outwitted.The northerners have a strong temperament, especially in the Beihai area, where the people are fierce and there are many people who practice martial arts.In order to uphold their loyalty, they dared to openly oppose the Wu clan, and jointly signed tens of thousands of blood letters, which were ironclad and left their names in history.If the residents of the city are really forced to be anxious, unite as one, and swear to defend their homes to the death, even if Ren Zhen can win, the situation will be very miserable, almost slaughtering the city.At that time, the rebels in the North Sea will return to the lair, which will be a big trouble.Moreover, the intention of their trip was not to capture Beihai and exterminate the old royal family, but to take Xiao Gao Pan to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, strive for the recognition of the other party, and become a legitimate descendant of the royal family, and even the heir to the throne.Therefore, it is not advisable to knock on the city by force.After some discussion, Wu Daosi took the initiative to ask Ying, willing to go into the city to negotiate, and explain his intention to the Gao family who presided over Beihai to solve the problem in a peaceful way.He used to be deeply trusted by the Gao family, and he can be said to be a confidant, if it weren't for this, the Gao family would not have handed over the important task of the Gao family to him and sent him to the capital to make trouble in the court.It is easier for him to negotiate with the other party to convince the other party of sincerity, after all, he has already proven himself in the court test.Early in the morning, Wu Daosi sat in a small car and was pushed into the city.For a whole day and night, he was not heard from.Early the next morning, just when Ren Zhen thought that the negotiations had broken down and was about to attack in a big way, the gate of Beihai City opened, and Wu Daosi returned with a message.The Gao family was willing to avoid war and accept further negotiations, but on the condition that only a maximum of three people could enter the city.In other words, Ren Zhen must risk his life and break into this Longtan tiger's den.Ren Zhen did not hesitate and agreed to this condition.If you can avoid a war, it is worth taking some risks, and Beihai is known for its faithfulness, and if you are willing to repay the country with death, you will not make a dirty act and make the world laugh.He didn't let Wu Daosi enter the city again, this person's legs and feet were inconvenient, and it was difficult to get out of the city.With him and Li Mubai joining forces and escaping with Xiao Gaopan, it shouldn't be a big problem.Before leaving, he burned incense and bathed, changed into a rarely worn cyan Confucian shirt, and went to meet the Beihai literati as a little Confucian gentleman.The door slowly opened, and Ren Zhen took Xiao Gaopan's hand, held his head high, and strode forward."

Xiao Xiao, we will see a large group of people soon, it is likely to be a bad guy, are you afraid" "Not afraid" Xiao Xiao has a firm face, sweat in the palm of his hand, but he can't fool Ren Zhen, "Senior brother, didn't you say, are they my relatives, how can relatives be bad guys" Ren Zhen walked into the city gate, looked at the light inside, and explained in a deep voice: "Because they are afraid that you will snatch the sugar gourd, and want to pretend not to know you" How can the child understand the big truth, as soon as he heard about the snatching of the sugar gourd, Xiao Cheng understood, hehe smiled: "They are relatives, I'll share the food with them," Ren Zhen smiled and touched his head, "I'll remember it later, and tell them this sentence too." ”Li Mubai walked beside him, and when he heard this conversation, he frowned and asked: "It is really so important to be recognized by the Gao family, as long as you take away the country, we have the final say on the throne." ”Ren Zhen stepped forward, shook his head and said: "If the name is not right, then the words are not good, for no reason to support a doll as the emperor, what is the difference between the usurper and the usurpation, the etiquette is broken, the people are not convinced, today they are in a group to fight against us, tomorrow they will be able to crusade again, the lives are ruined, why bother tossing" Today's trip is to let Beihai witness and prove to the world that Xiao Gaopan is the only son of King Xiang, a descendant of the royal family, and he is the most orthodox heir to the throne.This is the etiquette practiced by Confucianism.In the future, if someone covets the throne, it will be no different from Wu Qingyi, and everyone in the world can attack him in groups.By the time he had said this, the three men had walked into the city and stopped.They were greeted by Confucian students from Beihai Academy.This group of people, neatly dressed, lined up on both sides of the street, at least a thousand people, the scene was very shocking.Confucianism attaches the most importance to etiquette and adheres to the principle of loyalty and filial piety, and when the teacher comes, they should go out to greet them as a sign of respect.Although Ren Zhen led the army to suppress the territory, after all, he was a Confucian gentleman, and he was in charge of Confucianism with the last order of Confucianism, and his reputation was the most respected, unsurpassed.Beihai Academy prides itself on being authentic, and if its disciples don't even understand this etiquette, they will not only be neglected, but will also lose their own reputation and make other colleges laugh.Even a few years ago, when the Confucian saints came in person and went on a killing spree, the Beihai literati still died generously without damaging their manners.Seeing Ren Zhen appear, thousands of Confucian students saluted one after another, neatly and uniformly.Ren Zhen bowed slightly, asked everyone to calm down, and said secretly in his heart, "At the beginning, Wu Daosi strongly persuaded me to come to Beihai, saying that it was to let me see the mellow Confucian demeanor, but now that I am here, I hope that Beihai is a true gentleman, don't disappoint me" He glanced at everyone and said loudly: "I am fortunate to meet the gentlemen of Beihai today, and I am really personable, and I will not lose my Confucian etiquette."

Please come with me and go to worship the spirit of the third senior brother. ”When everyone heard this, their expressions were suddenly abrupt, this Blowing Water Marquis had just entered the city, and before he had yet to meet at the Gao family, he was going to worship the third gentleman, Wei Zheng
