Liu Bei could not explain, and Xun You did not ask further. The two of them climbed up the walls of Luoyang.
Xun You stood at the top of the city wall, his white clothes fluttering in the autumn wind. He pointed at Luoyang and said,""Xuande, look, Taicang. The arsenal is built in the northeast corner of the city. There is a gold market in the northwest of Nangong, a south market in the southern suburbs, and a horse market in the eastern suburbs. In the south of the city, there are Mingtang, Piyong, Lingtai and Taixue.”
"Taicang, is it a very large warehouse?”
"Armory, is it the warehouse of weapons?”
"Gold market, is it a market that sells gold, silver, and jade?”
" Nan City? Is that Nan Za Market?"
"Horse market? Is it a horse trading center?”
"What are Sacred Central Crypt, Biyong, Lingtai, and University? Oh, university should be something like a school.”
Liu Bei was filled with question marks, but he did not dare to ask. It would be boring to show that he was ignorant and that Xun You misunderstood him.
Only after a long time did Liu Bei realize that Xun You's words were not far from his own speculation.
For example, the gold market, the south market, and the horse market were all places of business in Luoyang. However, the goods traded were different from what Liu Bei had imagined.
"Brother Xuande, why don't you compose a poem in this situation?”After Xun You finished giving his instructions, he stood with his hands behind his back. He was really a carefree and elegant man.
Liu Bei knew that Xun You looked honest and harmless on the outside, but in fact, he was evil. Now, he was testing himself again.
Well, it's alright. Don't be afraid. I'm a cheater. Composing a poem is a small matter. The troublesome thing is to choose the masterpiece of the great poet and to suit the situation.
"Brother Gongda has put in a lot of effort today, this little brother is extremely grateful.”Liu Bei did not decline and said,"To express my feelings, I will write a poem."”
"Please!" "I'm all ears," replied Xun You with a smile.”
"The four mountains are green, and the three rivers are bright. Autumn wind does not know the meaning of rise and fall, grass color year full of the capital. Smoke and rain, whistling, but also born, the palace hairpin is the emperor's city. If you ask about the rise and fall of ancient and modern times, please only look at Luoyang City.”
Liu Bei changed two words from Sima Guang's "Passing Through Luoyang". As for whether there were any problems or loopholes, that was Xun You's business.
"If you ask about the rise and fall of the past and present, please only look at Luoyang City.”Xun You praised sincerely as he chanted,""Good poem, good poem. The 'Autumn Thoughts' from before was also good, but it doesn't have the aura of this poem.”
"Crossing Luoyang." Liu Bei definitely couldn't say the original name of the poem, otherwise he wouldn't have changed the old words and old words into the words 'du' and 'shi'. The obvious loopholes had to be plugged.
"Crossing Luoyang." Xun You raised his eyebrows and glanced at Liu Bei.""Brother Xuande, are you here to visit Luoyang as a passerby?”
"Brother Gongda, autumn winds and leaves fall. Time flies, dynasties rise and fall, and life is in a hurry.”Liu Bei looked into the distance, his thoughts flying.
" From slash-and-burn farming to farming, humans have grown from rags to clothing. Isn't it a history of development, a history of struggle, a history of blood and tears, a history of battles, fighting against the heavens, the earth, and humans?”Liu Bei seemed to be talking to Xun You, but he also seemed to be muttering to himself.
"No one is born noble, it's just the shadow of their ancestors. No one was born lowly, they all descended naked. In the face of life, everyone was equal. Everyone had the right to live, and no one had the right to arbitrarily deprive others of their right to live. When people could not live anymore, resistance would follow, and the rise and fall of dynasties would be inevitable.”In the end, Liu Bei muttered something to himself.
Liu Bei's words and views were very common in the later generations. Even if the later generations could not achieve equality in the face of life, at least people would not think that such words were outrageous and shocking.
To Xun You of this era, Liu Bei's views and opinions were like a bolt from the blue. Xun You had been struck so hard that he had lost the ability to think and express himself.
Xun You's wooden expression was sometimes a disguise, but at this moment, he was really in a wooden state.
There was nothing he could do. Even though Xun You was talented and determined, Liu Bei's words were too unbelievable. Xun You could understand, but he could not imagine that it came from Liu Bei's mouth.
After a while, Xun You's soul returned to his body. He calmed down and said,""Brother Xuande is truly a god!"
No matter how talented a person was, it was related to the education they received and the environment around them. This was Xun You's understanding. Liu Bei's background and education could not explain Liu Bei's current state. At the very least, Xun You expressed that he could not understand and accept it.
Therefore, Xun You would rather believe the rumors about the dream of a god, or else it would be a big blow to others. Of course, Xun You would never have thought that Liu Bei was a transmigrator, and he would never believe in transmigration.
"Brother Gongda, I am a mortal." Liu Bei shook his head." Everything I know comes from the Encyclopedia that was given to me by the gods in their dreams.”
Liu Bei couldn't say something as mysterious as transmigration, and he couldn't explain all these things. He could only carry on with the dream teaching. As for whether others believed it or not, Liu Bei did not know. In any case, after saying so much, Liu Bei himself believed it.
Xun You said with great interest," I have heard that Brother Xuande was granted by the gods in his dreams. I have never believed it. Since I have come into contact with Brother Xuande, I dare not deny it. If there is no such miraculous encounter, how can I explain Brother Xuande's miracles?"”
Whether it was Liu Bei's remarks, his poems, the chess he made and the simplified Chinese characters he proposed, Xun You felt that they were all magical and extraordinary.
"That's right. Back then, I didn't dare to believe it either.”Liu Bei seemed to be filled with emotion as he said," Especially after I saw the Encyclopedia, I felt even worse. Confusion, hesitation, helplessness, loneliness, and other negative emotions came one after another. It made me despair.”
It was true. Anyone who traveled from the peaceful era of the later generations to the chaotic times of the late Han Dynasty more than a thousand years ago would have such a performance. Liu Bei was speaking the truth, but he was beating around the bush.
"I understand." "How did you manage to adjust yourself, Brother?" Xun You asked with understanding. What was recorded in the Encyclopedia of Dreams?”
"How did you adjust? Let nature take its course. Since it's already a fact, what can you do if you can't accept it?”Liu Bei smiled bitterly." Everything has its pros and cons. The dream of a god is incredible. It has indeed opened my eyes."”
He had already transmigrated here, and since he could not transmigrate back, he could only think about how to survive in this chaotic world. In the process of survival, they would naturally make use of the knowledge from the future.
"This encyclopedia is really all-encompassing. It covers all aspects, such as people's livelihood, internal affairs, military, law, and so on.”"The most amazing thing is that it records some things that happened a thousand years later.”
"An item from the future?" Xun You was shocked and said,""The Encyclopedia can record the history of this thousand years?”
"Oh, not really." Liu Bei did not expect Xun You to be so meticulous, but he said with certainty,""Yueyin mentioned that after a thousand years, everyone will have education, fields to cultivate, support for old age, and support for life.”
"Everyone has education, fields, support in old age, and support in life. Is it possible for everyone to be equal?”"How is that possible?" Xun You said, completely unsettled. Impossible, impossible!"
People who lived in this era could not imagine such a prosperous scene. Even someone as intelligent as Xun You was thrown into confusion by Liu Bei's words, let alone the commoners.
Other than saying that everyone was equal in the future, everything else was really achieved. What Liu Bei did not say was that there were billions of people in the future. He was really afraid that Xun You would go crazy.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, the population of the country was only over 60 million, but it was still unable to completely and effectively solve the problem of food and clothing. The people of this era would definitely not be able to imagine more than a billion people.
