When Ruan Ji and Dan Tao came to the bamboo forest in high spirits, I saw a young man in plain clothes sitting under a weeping willow playing the piano. His face is white, his eyes are bright, and he doesn't say a word, but his harp is fragrant and his shawl is exquisite and natural. This man is none other than Ji Kang. Ruan Ji pursued this point and sighed: "Seeing is believing!"

As for Ji Kang, Ruan Ji only knew that he was from Luoxian, Qiao County. He lost his father when he was young and was taken care of by his mother and two brothers. Ruan Ji thought: Although my childhood was extremely difficult, I was occasionally cared for by the emperor. Uncle Ye is different. In order to support four people, his eldest brother dropped out of school and worked as a child. Because of poor health and long-term fatigue, he unfortunately died young. This can be said to be the eternal pain in Ji Kang's heart.

In his poem, he lamented his inner sorrow and burst into tears. I'm at the end of my rope. The feeling of sadness and pain is disappearing. My mother and brother always hide. I want to describe the internal damage. Ji Kang attaches great importance to love, and his final ending also comes from his inner recognized friendship.

Ji Kang's second brother Ji Xi joined the army in his early years and later became famous. For his younger brother, he is not only very caring, but also very indulgent. He is not required to read any Confucian classics, but what he likes. This is also the original factor of the ideological difference between Ji Kang and Ruan Ji when they first met. Gradually, Ji Kang grew up, and he only cared about seeking immortality and collecting herbs all day, "doing nothing." Ji wrote a poem to persuade his younger brother:

Nothing is vulgar in talent and materialization.

You can travel well in the capital and live in the mountains.

Confucius' father is good at thinking, but it is difficult to cross the cloudless world.

The source is due to time and resources, which is unpredictable.

Keep your mind and move when you see changes.

Lucy means nothing more than persuading her brother to go out and get an official position, and not to do nothing all day. But Ji didn't want to think, how could his stubborn brother listen to him? From then on, Ji Kang hated the world and longed for isolation. In this way, it turns out that some people were born out of dust and are different.

Because of the elder brother's "harassment", the two had a big fight. Ji Kang ran away from home in a fit of pique. After some running, he found his final destination, Yang Shan. He was only twenty years old at this time.

Through talking with Ji Kang, Ruan Ji gained many new understandings from this young man who is ten years younger than him. Dan Tao said, "His personality is as tall and independent as a pine tree in the valley, and his drunkenness seems to be like autumn in Yushan, which makes him radiant whether he is sitting or lying down. I didn't lie to you, did I, Chief Black? " Ruan Ji said excitedly: "I really found my life confidant this time. I want to stay here for a long time and accompany him."

Dan Tao soon returned to Hanoi. Let Ruan Ji go. On this day, Ji Kang took out a newly written article to solicit Ruan Ji's opinions. Ruan Ji saw the title "On Health" and immediately became interested. After reading it through, I can't help but marvel at Ji Kang's concept of health preservation.

Ji Kang said: "In this matter of health care, we must combine internal and external factors, see the big from the small, plan ahead and persevere!" This theory has now become the basic principle of TCM health preservation. Ji Kang was able to put forward this view more than 1000 years ago, which is enough to get a glimpse of the long-term vision of China culture. ?

Ruan Ji asked, "So, do you still eat Wushi powder as tonic?" Ji Kang replied, "I'm afraid it won't have much effect if you just eat this thing. You have to take some medicine from the mountains." Steamed with Ganoderma lucidum, moistened with Liquan, Chaoyang and Wuxian, I am complacent, my body is wonderful and mysterious, I forget my joy and then I am happy, and I will survive after my life. Ruan Ji was amazed at this, and Ji Kang said confidently, "If that's the case, I'm sorry to live longer than the years you fought with Wang Qiao. Why is it nothing? "

What shocked Ruan Ji more than this book "On Health" was the book "On Sound without Sorrow and Happiness". This article is specifically aimed at the dispute between Ruan Ji and Xia Houxuan, which has a long history. Because Ji Kang lives in seclusion in the countryside, few people know about it. Who knows that this time, when Ruan Ji got it, it spread immediately. And summed up this grand music debate.

Ji Kang put forward in his article: Music exists independently, and there is no sadness or joy in itself. Just like wine. Happy people like to drink, so do sad people. It's just that happiness and worry are people's own emotions and have nothing to do with wine. Ji Kang's point of view is quite advanced. I think Marx will be full of praise after reading it in a thousand years!

It is this incident that completely changed Ruan Ji's concept of "rites and music" in the past. In fact, celebrities before Zhengshi once denied the educational function of music, but failed to give a reasonable statement. Now Ji Kang uses dialectics to explain it, which is not only a historical breakthrough, but also an end to this great debate about music.

Ji Kang and Ruan Ji are discussing articles, and Dan Tao returns to the bamboo forest. This time he came with another young man. His name is Xiang Xiu. Xiang Xiu is younger than Ye Shu, but his understanding of metaphysics is unique and original. Wang Bi, a famous person in Zhengshi, who wrote Laozi's Note, was only twenty years old when he wrote this book, which can be described as a genius among geniuses. The celebrity corresponding to bamboo is Xiang embroidery. There is an article in Xiang Xiu's Notes on Zhuangzi that can be called "Broaden the past and brighten today". At the same time, he became the only person who met Ji Kang ideologically.

Xiang embroidery not only made friends with Ji Kang in philosophy, but also worked with him. Ji Kang watered vegetables, and he helped carry water. Ji Kang blew and cursed while the iron was hot. The pictures Ji Kang recalled before his death were the happiest time in his life. And growing vegetables with them, there is Lv An. Although Lv An is a farmer, he is also a gentleman. Ji Kang has never wronged him in his life. It's just that his half-brother Lu Xun really made a mistake!

The dull and happy time lasted for a long time. It was not until the seventh year of Zhengshi (AD 246) that Ji Kang entered Luoyang. Ji Kang came to Beijing at the invitation of his admirers. He wanted to have an objective understanding of the outside world. Who knows that once he entered Beijing, his anonymity spread like wildfire. At this time, people have a basic impression of the people in the bamboo forest for the first time.

So they are such elegant and generous people! He didn't wear any fancy clothes, even no different from ordinary people, but his temperament really makes people eager to get close.

Soon, Uncle Ye gained a group of loyal fans. The first thing to mention is Cao Cao's granddaughter Changle Pavilion. Before that, he never thought about getting married or falling in love. So, when a beautiful and intelligent woman confessed to him, he naturally agreed while feeling that fate had fallen from the sky. After marriage, the owner of Changle Pavilion is willing to abandon his wealth and retire to the mountains with his uncle. This quality of not seeking fame and fortune should also be accepted by Ji Kang.

Back to the bamboo forest, Liu Ling and others have also been in place. At this time, the seven sages of the bamboo forest finally gathered together. Everyone is free, drinking and talking about metaphysics. Ji Kang was glad to join their camp when he saw that his wife was not unhappy. I have to say that this husband's uncle and the mother who hired a wonton car for her husband in the Qing Dynasty are "the cutest people in the world".

In the first month of the 10th year (AD 249), Sima Yi staged a coup in Gao Ping Ling. This sudden coup seems sudden, but it is inevitable. Then Cao Shuang fell, and the Sima family officially entered the historical stage. Well-dressed celebrities like Yanhe were wiped out by Sima Yi. For a time, the country lost a large number of talents and was in urgent need of support. In order to make up for this vacancy, Sima Yi called Ruan Ji and others to be officials.

As a result, Ruan Ji came out and Dan Tao came out. Needless to say, Wang Rong has this ambition. Although such achievements have been made, the leaders of these celebrities have not yet come out, and Sima Yi is still unwilling. However, he has his own characteristics and can be tolerant. Two years later, Sima Yi died of illness and Sima Shi came to power. The first thing he did after taking office was to send a bell to "invite" Ji Kang out. Zhong Hui dressed up to attend, but he didn't get a good look. Ji Kang also aroused the resentment of the rulers.

When Ruan Ji was appointed as the captain of the infantry and Liu Ling was kept in the dark, Ji Kang's figure appeared again in Luoyang. This time, he came alone, not for the afterlife, but for the long-awaited Book of Songs in imperial academy. The books in Shijing are all Confucian classics. Ruan Ji was shocked: "Is it true that times have changed and Grandpa Ye has become interested in Confucianism?" The answer is yes.

Ji Kang watched his friends go out to be officials one by one, and with years of travel, he was more or less exposed to Confucianism. Especially Zuo Zhuan, his interest is extremely high. I not only read it through several times, but also corrected my pronunciation and wrote Zuo Chunqiu's Note.

In the evening, when my uncle copied the classics, the students in imperial academy sat by and watched. We will discuss it occasionally. After a while, everyone fell in love with Grandpa Ye's knowledge and demeanor, and jointly asked him to stay as a teacher. Ji Kang has feelings, but after all, he is tired of the secular world and has to politely refuse. After copying the stone sutra, he quickly packed up and left. Nevertheless, those sincere students have already addressed him as a teacher in their hearts.

Without reading the letter "Breaking Up with Shan Juyuan", you will never know how loyal Ji Kang is to his friends. This letter signed "Dear John" perfectly shows the profound friendship between two intimate friends.

At this time, Dan Tao has become the toast of Si Mazhao, and he wants Ji Kang to succeed him as the official department minister. This is certainly not Dan Tao's intention. Dan Tao and Ji Kang have known each other for a long time. How can you not know Uncle Ye's character? And even if you want to persuade him, you have already persuaded him, and you still need to wait until now? Dan Tao did this to stay up late.

Dan Tao knows that Sima Zhao is more and more ambitious now, and Sima has completely replaced Cao Zhi. If Si Mazhao wants to consolidate his political power, he must get the support of people of insight. Ji Kang, as a representative of the literati in the world, openly rejected him, although he didn't raise any objection. Si Mazhao hated it. There is no excuse for punishment. It was Dan Tao who saw through this that made Ji Kang come out to be an official together. Even if he drank and did nothing all day like Heizong, it would be better than Si Mazhao making up an excuse to frame him one day.

"A gentleman can die, but not sink; You can bully, but you can't ignore it! " This view has been put into practice in Dan Tao and Ruan Ji. But it doesn't work for Ji Kang. Uncle Ye understands Dan Tao's painstaking efforts, but it can't go against his wishes. He is a man accustomed to sex, even more stubborn. But considering that Dan Tao is a gentleman, living in a temple, serving the country and the people, he can't be implicated, so he wrote this letter and pretended to break up with him:

The first step is to pass by, but more can be blamed; I am narrow-minded, I can't stand it. I met my first step ... I used to study, but I didn't know anyone. Now I believe they really have ears.

At the beginning of the speech, it was basically a compliment to Dan Tao, calling him an aristocrat and comparing him with Wen Zi and Sean. After reading these comments in Si Mazhao, Dan Tao's recognition will definitely add some points. This will be of great help to Dan Tao's future career. Then Ji Kang said "foggy". Why don't you pay attention to hygiene? Because you are lazy to hold your urine, there are "seven articles" that you can't bear, and "two articles" that you can't do. There are not many effective ingredients in these words. Imagine: Uncle Ji, who can write such a masterpiece as "On Health Preservation", will not know that holding urine is harmful to health?

Ji Kang's breakup with Shanjuyuan, though not deceiving Dan Tao, succeeded in confusing Si Mazhao. Since then, Dan Tao's official has grown bigger and bigger, and his career has been smooth; However, Ji Kang's life began to count down. ...

Ji is studying in the garden. On this day, his former friend Lu Xun suddenly came in a hurry and asked him for help.

It turned out that Lu Xun got drunk and raped his younger brother when he was not at home because he saw his younger brother's daughter-in-law Xu Lang was beautiful and moving. Xu woke up and found himself humiliated and hanged himself. When Lv An came home, he was so angry that he wanted to fight to the death with his brother. Lu Xun was half sober at this moment, so he knelt down and begged. It is said that he made a big mistake in a moment of confusion and hoped that his brother would give him a chance to turn over a new leaf. And if this kind of thing spreads, it will also damage the family's reputation. How will he meet his ancestors in the future? !

At this time, Lu An was furious and determined to sue Lu Xun. Lu Xun thought of a person in his panic-Uncle Ye. Yes, at this time, only Uncle Ye can help himself. Lu Xun rushed to the bamboo forest and told Ji Kang what had happened. Ji Kang was furious after hearing this and severely scolded Lu Xun. Lu Xun didn't dare to refute, only said that he was drunk for a while and made a big mistake. Now that he has repented, he deeply feels that he does not deserve to die. I just think that once this story gets out, it will not only ruin Lv An's reputation, but also bring shame to our ancestors. So I hope uncle can persuade his brother not to make a mountain out of a molehill.

Ji Kang listened to this statement, thought for a long time, and finally promised to write to Lv An. It can be seen that Ji Kang is really a simple and soft-hearted person. The same is true, let yourself suffer. Thus, the realistic version of the story of the farmer and the snake was staged!

After receiving Ji Kang's letter, Lu An hesitated for several days and finally withdrew the lawsuit against Lu Xun. Who knows that Lu Xun was afraid that his brother would go back on his word and sue him for unfilial. In this way, Lv An is finished. If you are sent to prison, you will be exiled. After Ji Kang heard this, he immediately stood up to testify for his friends. He retorted that Lu Xun was a villain who raped his sister-in-law and framed his brother. Lv An was very moved to see Uncle Ye stand up. Lu An was relieved to think that he was a literary leader and would get a lot of support.

But he was wrong. This move was originally made by Si Mazhao for Ji Kang. Ji Kang is soft-hearted, and will help persuade him after learning that Lu Xun is begging. Because of heavy righteousness, I saw Lu An in prison and naturally stepped forward. The result of all this is expected by Si Mazhao. Lu Xun is a long history of Si Mazhao. He has this big tree, even without Ji Kang, he will be safe. Alas, Ji Kang was trapped by the villain after all, and the gentleman was in danger!

In this way, Ji Kang was sent to death row as an accessory. During this period, he looked back on his life and lamented that he really didn't understand the world and was not good at observing intrigue, which led to this ending. To his delight, Dan Tao and Ruan Ji came to see him together. Ji Kang entrusted Dan Tao to take care of his young children, and wrote to them at home to tell them that you are not alone with the presence of mountain gods! Later, under your care, Ji Kang's son was appointed Secretary Cheng at the age of eighteen, which is a glorious threshold!

The next morning, the gorgeous sunshine rose as usual, and Ji Kang finally had to face the cold firing squad. Three thousand imperial academy disciples knelt outside the execution ground, complaining for Teacher Ji. But he has nothing to say, but he wants to come to the guqin and play the most shocking music in the world.

? For a long time, the last chapter of the bamboo forest story ended perfectly. Since then, uncle night has become immortal, and Guangling has lost its voice!
