After the conquest of Fangla, the once vigorous Liangshan Po began to come to an end, and the good men died and were wounded. On the way back to Beijing, there were constantly good men leaving the team, and there were very few good men who eventually returned to the capital.
The prodigal son Yanqing left the team on the way back to Beijing.
Yan Qing knew the truth that the bird hid with a bow and the rabbit died and the dog cooked. He wanted to leave the team and live a life of seclusion.
However, he could not bear to leave alone, and he still had to take his master Lu Junyi out of the "sea of suffering", so he hurried to find Lu Junyi.
"Xiao B has been serving his master since childhood, and he is grateful and grateful, and it is difficult to say a word. Now that the great affairs have been accomplished, I want to accept and accept the official curse with the master, go to the hidden place privately, and find a secluded place to go, so that I can live all day and year. What does the unknown owner mean? ”
Yan Qing stated the stakes and wanted to go into hiding with Lu Junyi, and he asked Lu Junyi's opinion.
"Since Liangshan Po returned to the Song Dynasty, the Liao soldiers in the north and fangla in the south were not easy to work, the border was bitter, the brothers were killed, and the lives of two members of my family were survived. Just about to return to your hometown, trying to seal your wife and shadow, how can you find such a fruitless search? ”
Lu Junyi believes that the two of them have gone through countless hardships, and now that they have made great achievements, it is a good time to enjoy the fruits of victory, how can they give up easily?
"The host was poor. Xiao B went here, and there was a result. I am only afraid that the master will go here, and there will be no result. ”
Yan Qing was still calm, and he pointed out that he would definitely have a satisfactory result when he went here, but you who stayed in the imperial court might not have a good result. He successively gave the examples of Han Xin, Peng Yue and others to persuade Lu Junyi.
However, Lu Junyi is an extremely stubborn person, he has never listened to persuasion, he has his own set of theories. Yan Qing saw that Lu Junyi was stubborn and had to give up. He bid farewell to his master, packed up a load of gold and silver overnight, and then he did not know the end.
Yan Qing left Song Jiang a letter with a poem: I would rather accept the official, and not seek wealth or glory. There is a king pardon around him, and he has lived this life with light rice and yellow food.
In fact, Yan Qing's poem tells why he took a load of gold and silver when he left.
First of all, Yan Qing resigned from the official court in order to live a life of seclusion.
As a once-vigorous celebrity, the good man of Liangshan, the best way to avoid the liquidation of the imperial court is to choose to be a low-key person. No matter how fierce you were before, how cattle you were, and you want to live, then you have to choose "Gou".
Yan Qing could no longer appear as the prodigal son Yan Qing, and although he had Emperor Huizong's pardon, who could guarantee that he would not meet a stunned Qing like Yin Tianxi?
If you want to live in seclusion, you must also have a certain economic foundation, otherwise you will have to live on the streets.
Second, not seeking wealth or prosperity does not mean living a poor life
Yan Qing grew up in Lu Yuanwai's home, and although the degree of eating and wearing cannot be said to be luxurious, it is also very exquisite. Even when he arrived at Liangshan Po, Yan Qing, as the leader of Tiangang, was not short of silver flowers.
In order to maintain the existing standard of living, Yanqing needs a certain amount of gold and silver. And Yan Qing, who went out with the army, obviously could not carry a large amount of gold and silver, so he could only scrape together enough money in the army.
In the end, Yan Qing took the money and left just to survive.
Yan Qing had suffered a loss without money.
At that time, Lu Junyi listened to the fortune teller's words and insisted on taking refuge in the southeast. Lu Junyi was left in Liangshan Po for about three months, the housekeeper Li Gu was released in advance, and Li Gu, who returned to the Daming Mansion, colluded with Lady Lu Junyi to soon seize Lu Junyi's family property.
Yan Qing, as a loyal confidant of Lu Junyi, was soon purged of Lu Province. Yan Qing, who had no savings on her body, had a very miserable life. On the way home, Lu Junyi met Yan Qing, who was embarrassed:
I saw only one person, his turban broken, his clothes blue.
Later, Lu Junyi did not listen to Yan Qing's advice, and after returning home, he was framed and imprisoned by Li Gu. When Yan Qing went to visit Lu Junyi in prison, he was even more miserable:
Yan Qing knelt on the ground, holding two lines of tears, and said, "Brother Jie, poor little man's master Lu Yuanwai, eats a lawsuit, and has no money to deliver food!" The villain outside the city called this half-can of rice, and the right and the master were hungry. ”
Even to bring some food to Lu Junyi needs to beg along the street, where has Yan Qing suffered such suffering?
With the lessons of this incident, Yan Qing knew the importance of money, and he knew that it was impossible to create wealth from scratch with his own ability.
Even on his own, he was likely to starve to death on the street, so he deliberately packed a load of gold and silver treasure when he left.
In fact, for so long to give Liang Shanbo his life, these gold and silver are what Yan Qing deserves.
Often see the question on the Internet about this question, in fact, very boring, no door need to care is not Yan Qing took away a certain amount of gold and silver, but should learn Yan Qing's attitude of life, this kind of rapid retreat courage.
Although Lu Junyi was born well and had high martial arts, his emotional intelligence was pitifully low, which led to his eventual tragic death in the river.
When we look at the problem, we should not give up the end, but should grasp the main point!
