Chapter 146 The Fate of Princess Xiaohuarui
Han Lingkun invited Zong Xin into the room for a cup of rough tea, Zong Xin naturally agreed, and walked into the bamboo house with two women and his disciples.

Bamboo tables and chairs, bamboo walls and bamboo canes, and almost all the rooms are made of bamboo, but it's not surprising that they are taken locally.There are bamboos everywhere in this neighborhood, so it is very convenient to do anything.

In the middle of Han Lingkun's bamboo house, there is a portrait of a person and a couplet.Just looking at Han Lingkun's brushwork, you can tell that his prose is good, because most of the characters Zongxin on this couplet are unfamiliar, and it takes a long time to understand.

"The embankment of a thousand feet is destroyed by the den of ants. The room of a hundred feet is burned by the smoke from the gap. This is... the words of Han Feizi of the Legalist school. Could it be that Brother Han is the heir of the Legalist school?"

Han Lingkun said: "Exactly!"

"Keep your voice down." Zong said, "Why do you have to speak so loudly at home?"

"I'm used to it." Han Lingkun was educated by Legalists since he was a child, and he was indeed a little rigid. He stood upright, sat upright, and was meticulous in everything. Even his hair was not messed up, as if he had obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Zong Dao: "Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism are flourishing all over the world, and Legalism is a minority. I don't know why Brother Han specializes in Legalism?"

"The country should be based on the law. If the judiciary is incomplete, how can the country be governed? I don't know when the world will usher in a peaceful and prosperous age. I will definitely promote Legalism."

Zong Xin was slightly touched by Han Lingkun's words. Although this person is rigid, he is not ignorant.In today's troubled times, who still obeys the law?A person with military power in his hand, what he says is the law.

So Han Lingkun, the heir of the Legalist family, lives in seclusion here, and the legalist thought in troubled times will only lead to fire.Retirement is a very smart and easy way to do it.

Although a hundred schools of thought flourished during the Warring States period, and the Legalists were not very outstanding among them, it was the Legalists who ultimately ruled the world.The idea of ​​governing the country according to the law, making no distinction between relatives and estrangements, high or low, and being bound by the law will not arise until many years later.

Zong Xin nodded and said: "The idea of ​​Legalism is good. Once it rises, the three religions of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism can only feel ashamed. No matter which one they are, they can't go beyond the law. Because it is the idea of ​​​​no distinction between high and low is the true meaning of the world. However, a world where everyone is equal will never be realized as long as there is an emperor. Therefore, Legalism is not suitable for the ruling class, so it is not valued so much.”

Han Lingkun nodded again and again, this legalist heir knew about this kind of thing a long time ago.As long as there is an emperor and a ruling class, they will not promote legalism. How can the emperor commit the same crime as the common people when he breaks the law?

"That's right! How could any emperor in history have judged himself guilty? How easy is it to be free from distinctions between noble and humble? I didn't expect that Master Zongxin also made great contributions to our Legalism. He is worthy of being an eminent monk of our time."

"I don't dare to be an eminent monk, I'm just a young monk who doesn't abide by the rules and regulations." Zong Xin said with a smile: "This bamboo house is really well built, but the weather is going to turn cold, and the bamboo house doesn't keep warm. How can we survive the winter?"

Han Lingkun said: "My family also has a house in Xuzhou City. We rent the house to a businessman in spring, summer and autumn. Many businessmen go home to rest every winter, so we move back to the house. Xuzhou is quite prosperous, so we are not afraid. The house cannot be rented out.”

Han Lingkun's approach is smart, it can not only save money, but also save people trouble.It is not convenient to buy a house when going out to do business, and it is not safe to stay in a hotel all day, so it is good to rent a house.

It is true that many people who do business only work in spring, summer and autumn, and go home to recuperate in winter. After a busy year, they go home with money and spend a happy Spring Festival, and then come out to make a living after the Spring Festival.

Everyone else understood that the two siblings had little income, so they rented out the house to earn some living expenses.I had no place to live, so I built a small bamboo house outside the city.Xuzhou will be very warm in spring, and hot in summer and autumn. Living in a place like this is like avoiding the heat.

"Oh~! That's fine." Zong Xin said with a smile: "Brother Han seems to be a scholar, but judging from his figure and footwork just now, he should have also practiced martial arts. And the person next to him..."

"I forgot to introduce. This is my sister-in-law, Han Wenmei, who usually takes care of her daily life and food. But the girl is getting old, her mother died early, and the elder brother is the father. It's time to find a husband's house for the child."

Zong Xin suddenly smiled and said, "Miss Han's face... looks familiar. Brother Zhao, do you think it's a little..."

"Yes, not just a little bit but very similar, very similar to Huarui." Zhao Kuangyin has always been obsessed with Mrs. Huarui, and was shocked when he saw Han Wenmei just now. This girl looks very similar to Mrs. Huarui.But if you take a closer look, there are still many differences. The eyes, nose, and mouth are very similar, so I just admitted my mistake.

"Huarui?" The Han brothers and sisters didn't know that Huarui was the name of a person. They thought Zhao Kuangyin was praising Han Wenmei for her beauty, but that was not what they meant. They seemed to be talking about who Han Wenmei looked like.

Zong Dao said: "Hua Rui is an old acquaintance of the poor monk, and now she is the concubine of Meng Chang of the Shu Kingdom, known as Mrs. Hua Rui. The faces of Lingmei and Mrs. Hua Rui are seven points similar, but they are younger, and they should be Xiao Hua Rui. .”

'Pfft~' Han Wenmei didn't say a word, but after hearing what Zong Xin said, she suddenly pursed her lips and laughed.

Han Lingkun said: "Master Zongxin really has a clever plan. Shemei's baby name is Xiaohua. Now Master Zongxin bestowed the word 'rui'. From now on, it will be called Xiaohuarui."

Han Wenmei immediately nodded, "Good name."

'Crack~' Zong Xin immediately slapped himself, gritted his teeth and said, "I really deserve to slap my mouth. What's the point of pistil? Now that you have all agreed on the name, then things will be troublesome."

"What's going on? Is there danger?" Han Lingkun didn't dare to believe it. Although they lived in seclusion, the two brothers and sisters were very interested in world affairs, and rumors that they were Zong Xin were everywhere.Zong Xin is a contemporary eminent monk who can pinpoint and calculate, and his criticisms have all come true so far.

"There is no danger, but Lingmei's husband's family has already been decided." Zong Xin sighed: "If you trust the poor monk, let Lingmei go with the poor monk, and you can meet her marriage."

Of course Han Lingkun was reluctant, but Master Zong Xin didn't mean anything malicious.Moreover, Master Zong Xin has a good reputation, and he has never done anything bad so far.

Now that Han Wenmei is 15 years old, it is not convenient to continue to stay by her side.But he was worried about handing her over to a monk.Although this monk already has two girls beside him, and these two girls...know each other.

Han Lingkun had never met them, but he knew their names.The older one is the eldest lady of the Dugu Clan, who has officially become the concubine of Master Zong Xin, and everyone knows about it.The other is Song Yao, the adopted daughter of the Song Clan. She follows Zong Xin shamelessly, and this matter is no secret.

"This...isn't very convenient." Han Lingkun said: "A woman is alone, surrounded by people she doesn't know, so she will inevitably be afraid. It's not that I don't trust Master Zong Xin, but we, brother and sister, have depended on each other since we were young. I saw my sister betrothed to someone else with my own eyes, how can I see my parents after death?"

Zong Xin immediately smiled and said: "It's simple, you can go with us. It's not interesting to stay here. Brother Han is full of scriptures, why bother to live in seclusion? Although the main ideas of Legalism cannot be publicized, there are still many legalists. Doctrine can govern the country, can’t it?”

Legalism is not so rigid, but very flexible.It's just that the descendants of the Legalist family are all rigid, and few people know how to be flexible.

Zhao Kuangyin said: "I don't know much about Legalist thought, but what you just said...it seems like Legalism has never produced any powerful figures. Can it really govern the country?"

"Nonsense, Zhuge Liang is a Legalist."

"is it?"

Zhao Kuangyin was taken aback, and always thought that Zhuge Liang was a Taoist, because in the legend, Zhuge Liang would use magic spells and describe it as a Taoist priest.How is he a legalist?According to this, the heirs of the Legalist school are very powerful, why didn't they know it before?
But if you think about it carefully, Zhuge Liang's law enforcement is very strict, like beheading Ma Su with tears, and he does have some stubborn legalist style.

Looking at Han Lingkun's state again, does he also hope that someone will visit the thatched cottage?It is estimated that there is no emperor who is full of food and comes to him. As a man, he looks so beautiful. The most outrageous thing is that he doesn't cherish his face and speaks so loudly. Killed.

Han Lingkun said: "Forget it, I'm not young anymore, it's time to go out and make some adventures. Xiao Hua, what do you think?"

"It's all up to my brother to decide."

Han Lingkun didn't change his words for the time being, but her name was given by Master Zong Xin, so there must be a meaning in it, so he must remember to change his words in the future.The eldest brother is the father, so I must not leave the important affairs of my sister's life to others. I must find someone worthy of entrustment, and I can trust my sister to him.

"Then there will be Master Lao Zongxin. I don't know where the master wants to go."

Zong Xin said: "Jinling Dugu Clan."

Han Lingkun was a little strange. Why did Master Zongxin go to the Tang Dynasty at this time?Now that Yelu Deguang is eyeing him, and a war between the two sides is about to break out, Zong Xin chooses this time to escape from the Han Dynasty?Could it be that he doesn’t want to see the lives of people in ruins?What do you want to do when you go to Datang at this time?
Han Lingkun just thought about it for a while, but soon realized that other people are eminent monks, how could he guess his thoughts?Still honestly watching the development of the situation.Let's see if Zong Xin's words are true, will he be able to find a husband's family for his sister?

Han Lingkun suddenly realized that his sister is so good-looking, so of course they will not have any objection if they find a random family, but what if the marriage is not good?Although Zong Xin is an eminent monk, if he finds a bad husband for his younger sister, he would rather raise her by himself for the rest of his life.It's better to ask first, but to see how much Master Zong Xin weighs.

"Master, I don't know where my sister's marriage is? What kind of family is she?"

Zong Xin said with a light smile: "Your sister's marriage is in Jinling. The poor monk gave her the word Rui. Her fate is already extraordinary. Even if she doesn't marry an emperor, she should marry a prince."

Everyone turned their heads to stare at Zong Xin. How capable is he?Adding a word to someone else's name can make that person a princess?Marry the prince if you don't marry the emperor?How can this be?

Not to mention that the two Han brothers and sisters who just met Zong Xin didn't believe it, even Zhao Kuangyin, who had known Zong Xin for so long, didn't believe it.I didn't believe it in my heart, but I went to tell Zhao Kuangyin rationally that the reason why this girl can be a princess is very simple. Zong Xin said it.

How can it be so easy to be a princess?And the marriage is in Jinling, so the person Han Wenmei wants to marry is not Tang Li Jing, but his three princes.Li Jing is too old, it should not be suitable, so there are three princes.
