Serious nonsense, this is a skill.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were many nonsense speakers, and many famous courtiers were good at it. Jin Wengong of the Jin Dynasty was a very good at talking nonsense, and when jin Wengong was still a prince with heavy ears, in the exile of the Di kingdom, the Di people married the beautiful woman Ji Kui to the heavy ear. Later, because Jin Xiangong and Li Ji were eager to hunt down and kill Zhong'er, Zhong'er could only choose to flee the Di kingdom. When I left Di Guo, I told Di Guo's wife that I would wait for twenty-five years and then remarry.
At that time, few people could live past fifty, and Confucius said that he was fifty and knew the destiny of heaven. Marrying a heavy eared Di Nu, there are not twenty but eighteen, waiting for twenty-five years to remarry, obviously not to let others marry. The "Zuo Biography" says: "Wait for me for twenty-five years, do not come and then marry", Ji Kui of course understood the true intention of the heavy ear, replied: "I have been twenty-five years, and if I marry like this, I will be wooden." Please wait for the son", Ji Kui knew that if he really waited for the heavy ear for twenty-five years, he was also a person who was about to die, and he chose to remarry at that time, it was better to wait for the return of the heavy ear.
The "Records of History" has: "From then on, there were five soldiers, the rest of the unknown people, to Di", and there were five people who followed Jin Wengong's side, they were Zhao Wan, Hu Yan, Jia Tuo, Xian Xuan, Wei Yi, and there were also people who were good at speaking nonsense. Still on the way out of the heavy ear, when defending the country, he was too depressed to eat, so he ran to the farmer's house to ask for food, and as a result, the farmer did not give the heavy ear face at all, and directly grabbed the mud to beat the heavy ear.
At that time, the heavy ear was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and was about to beat the farmer, but the fox said: "Gongzi, this is a gift from heaven, the farmer beat you with mud, in fact, not to beat you, but to give you land", this is obviously someone throwing a stone and hitting a heavy ear, but it is said that the heavens gave the land, so the spirit of A Q, such nonsense, but deeply won the heart of the prince's heavy ears. At that time, the heavy ear was already hungry and had no strength, and it was really difficult to know who would win or lose.
At the side of Duke Wen of Jin there was also a pioneer, who defeated the Chu and Chu states in the later Battles of Chengpu and Kun, making the Jin state the hegemon of the Spring and Autumn Period. Not only are the families of the ancestors good at fighting, but the families of the ancestors also have many people who are good at talking nonsense. It is said that Xianxun's father was Xiandanmu in the Jin Dynasty, and Xiandanmu was the right hand of ShenSheng's subordinate commander Hanyi.
There are often three people on the chariots of the Spring and Autumn Warring States, the princes or commanders are commanded in the middle as the emperor, the emperor is responsible for the helm on the left, and the right is the right side of the car, most of them are brave warriors, and the task is to carry out the work to resist the enemy, which shows that the courage of the Xian family is inherited. It's just that this Xiandanmu is different from the ancestors of the same clan, Xiandanmu is a real person, because the Jin Xiangong did not grant Shen Sheng military rights according to the prescribed etiquette system, so he ordered Shen Sheng to lead a large army to attack the Di people, Xian Danmu thought that this was a warning to Shen Sheng, that is, the Jin Xiangong may have already had the idea of abolishing the concubine, and also advised Shen Sheng to leave the Jin kingdom, and the xianyou said something else.
The Xian family seems to have chosen Shen Sheng as a dependency, so Xian Danmu is the commander's car right, and Xian You is also following Shen Sheng's side, which is Shen Sheng's car right. It can be seen that as far as the strength of the Xian family is concerned, the first friend may be higher than the first Danmu, as for who these two ancestors are better at fighting, it is not an important thing, the reason why the first friend is closer to the power center than the first Danmu may be related to his good at a serious nonsense.
In the Spring and Autumn Warring States period, many diplomatic covenants and many battlefield confrontations were actually caused by lobbyists, and in the Spring and Autumn Period, there were qin army that came from afar, there was Zigong's theory of stopping the attack on Lu by other countries, and there was Cao Jie's Luguo controversy, these people were all standing on the perspective of interests, and what they said was not a serious truth, so it can be seen that the matter of talking nonsense in the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period is also to be wise, not to casually talk nonsense, and to think in the interests of the other side when talking nonsense, so as to win the approval of the other side. Jin Guo's ancestors were obviously such people.
Because The Duke of Jin casually let Shen Sheng wear clothes of different colors, many of his courtiers, including Xian Danmu, believed that Shen Sheng should leave the Jin State, but only this Xianmu had a different point of view, and when Shen Sheng panicked about the possible loss of the position of crown prince, Xianmu had the power to turn decay into magic, and had the ability to say bad into good.
Everyone was sighing, but Xianmu congratulated ShenSheng and said, "Although the clothes worn by the monarch are different in color and do not seem to conform to the etiquette on the surface, half of the color of the clothes is the same as the color of the monarch's clothes, which means that the monarch has regarded you as half a monarch, and now letting you lead the army to the army is to give you military power, and you have a bright future!" This word went straight to Shen Sheng's heart, as the concubine of the monarch, he accepted the king's order to go on the expedition, and if he refused, he would be disobedient; since he had military power, he would make more meritorious achievements on the road to the expedition, and he would always be appreciated by the king's father, and Shen Sheng's heart might always have this expectation, and he would believe the lies of his ancestors.
Regarding this matter, whether there was a conflict between Xianyou and Xiandanmu seems to be difficult to find evidence in the vast history books, but from this matter, we can see that the political views within the Xian family are different, even if the contradictions within the Xian family are fierce. Decades later, the conflict between Xianke and Xiandu became an important fuse for the "five generals and chaotic countries" of the Jin State.
