Chapter 414 I Really Don’t Want to Plagiarize
Family rules are the rules by which the head of the family rules his home or clan.
First there are family rules, then clan rules, and then laws.
In feudal society, family rules and clan regulations even override the law. It cannot be said that they are bad, nor can they be said to be good.
Every country has its own laws, and every family has its own rules.
This is a convention formulated by families with the same surname to restrain family members. Even today, family genealogies across the country have clan rules, genealogy prohibitions, clan rules, ancestral hall rules, family norms, clan agreements, clan precepts, and family instructions.
Children are mostly named according to their generation, which is a cultural influence that has continued for thousands of years.
Even today, with the widespread urbanization, it is still given great importance.
The better you are doing, the more attention you will receive; the worse you are doing, the less attention you will receive.
This contrast also indirectly reflects the power of ethnic groups. In times of chaos, people with the same surname, roots and origins can provide protection.
Its essence is still the group instinct of animals, for safety.
The Lingnan Wang family has more rules, and Zhao Zhiqing accepted the family rules when he returned that day.
He was a man in his fifties, kneeling in the ancestral hall, his back torn and flesh exposed from being beaten with thorns, and he almost fainted.
But Zhao Zhiqing didn't dare to faint, so he could only grit his teeth and hold on.
It was not until dinner time that he was helped to the banquet hall.
Seeing his miserable state, Lei Zhen couldn't help but scream, it was hard to imagine that the boss of the Zhao family was beaten so badly.
"Every country has its own laws, and every family has its own rules. Do you know that you are wrong?" The old man's voice was like a bell, and he stared at his eldest son with sharp eyes.
"Father, I know I was wrong."
Zhao Zhiqing knelt on the ground and admitted his mistake in fear.
"What's wrong?"
"I shouldn't have concealed the dog training farm, and I shouldn't have handed it over to outsiders, allowing them to commit illegal acts."
"Is that all?" the old man shouted angrily, "Get out of here and continue to reflect on your sins in front of our ancestors!"
"yes……"
Zhao Zhiqing was dragged down again and continued to kneel in the ancestral hall.
"So harsh?" Lei Zhen asked King Qin in a low voice.
"Not bad at all," the King of Qin muttered. "The higher the position, the stricter the rules. I'm always worried about an unfilial son ruining everything. What if this family legacy, built over so many years by so many people, is ruined by an unfilial son?"
"Is it like this in your family too?"
"Don't even mention it. When I was a kid, I almost got beaten to death for peeing in the ancestral hall."
“…”
Lei Zhen didn't feel too deeply about these family and clan rules.
Because I was born in the city in my previous life, I rarely go back to my hometown. But in my memory, my father would go to my hometown to burn paper at the grave every Qingming Festival, Zhongyuan Festival, October 1st and New Year's Eve.
I have been there a few times and I think it is fun to be surrounded by people. My favorite thing to do is to dig graves and stack them up.
"Lei Zhen, how do you think this matter was handled?" the old man asked.
"Old man, it's nothing serious." Lei Zhen said with a smile, "Besides, I was too reckless. I was young and impulsive. I hope you don't take it to heart."
When people ask this question, they are not asking for advice, but want to tell him that the matter ends here and you just need to keep it in your heart.
There is such a secret place hidden in the manor of the Lingnan Wang family. If it gets out, it will have an extremely bad impact on them.
This kind of thing is highly contagious, and people's hearts are terrifying, so there will always be people who take advantage of the situation.
Being a king is not that easy.
"Lei Zhen, don't underestimate yourself."
"You have to make your own way. How can you know what's right or wrong if you don't reach the end? Just do it boldly and don't worry about it."
The words of King Nanling are pleasant to the ears, full of philosophy and yet domineering.
When it comes to big things, the old man is indeed not confused.
"Grandpa, I have an immature suggestion. I don't know whether I should say it or not?" Lei Zhen said.
But the King of Nanling had already turned his head, and it was not known whether it was intentional or not.
But just this small action made Lei Zhen's immature suggestion seem inappropriate at this time.
"Yunjin, don't be angry. I have already told Lei Zhen about this matter." King Nanling's eyes fell on his little daughter, full of doting.
This is the apple of their family's eye. They are in their fifties and only just got to have such a daughter. They wish they could hold her in their hands forever.
“No.”
Zhao Yunjin was furious and glared at Lei Zhen fiercely.
She was very angry. Not only was she kidnapped, but this guy also caused her eldest brother to be punished by the family, and her father was protecting him.
"We were wrong first..."
"I won't listen!"
Faced with his youngest daughter's dissatisfaction, King Nanling was helpless.
He can beat anyone and scold anyone, but he just can't bear to scold this precious child.
"My fault, my fault." Lei Zhen stood up and said with a smile, "Sister Yunjin, I was too reckless. I apologize to you."
He took out the mutton-fat jade bracelet from his pocket and handed it over with both hands.
"The emerald bamboo Dharmakaya stands in a turquoise pond, its drops of dew shimmering with radiant light; its jade-like quality is unique, and it occasionally encounters the noble and pure fate of you all."
"I don't know how to pick out gifts, but I saw this bracelet was beautiful, so I bought it as an apology to Yunjin sister."
Reciting poetry, Lei Zhen is reciting poetry.
The King of Nanling was stunned, and Zhao Yunjin was also stunned.
Is he still a cultured person?
"What a beautiful saying, a piece of pure jade, a unique piece of art, a chance encounter with such noble and pure destiny." The King of Nanling said happily, "Yun Jin, this is a token of Lei Zhen's kindness, please accept it."
Nanling Wang is a man of literary character, and he can appreciate the artistic conception of this poem.
This is a compliment to the quality of Zhao Yunjin, which is as pure and bright as mutton-fat white jade.
"You can write poetry, right?" Zhao Yunjin looked at Lei Zhen and said, "Write another one and let me see how well you can copy it."
The girl was so angry that she deliberately made trouble.
"Sister Yunjin, I am..."
"Who is your sister? Aren't you just trying to curry favor with my dad? You're even copying poems. Are you the only one who can write poetry?"
Many people know that the old man is in charge of Nanling, but they ignore his literary character.
But this was an accident. Lei Zhen just wanted to find a poem that fits the occasion and give the bracelet to the young lady.
It is better to resolve a feud than to create one. I absolutely did not intend to plagiarize poetry.
"You're the chief instructor of the special forces, so why not write a military poem in classical Chinese? That shouldn't be too difficult for you, right?"
"this……"
Lei Zhen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect that the other party would catch him on this point.
To be honest, plagiarizing poetry is disgusting. I used it once before, suppressing my embarrassment, and it was just to seduce Xiao Fenghuang.
I am a gangster and I don’t play these games.
"Flatterer!" Zhao Yunjin's face was full of contempt.
The King of Nanling next to him was also helpless and wanted to say something, but when he saw his beloved daughter's expression, he chose to let her vent her anger.
"Fine grape wine in a luminous cup—"
There was red wine on the table, and Lei Zhen started plagiarizing.
"I want to drink, but the pipa music urges me on. Don't laugh at me sleeping drunk on the battlefield. How many men have ever returned from the battles in history?"
This is a poem by Li Bai. There is only Li Kui in this world.
"good!"
The King of Nanling clapped his hands in applause.
Zhao Yunjin's eyes widened, and he was also confused.
The first two lines of this poem are unruly and free-spirited, while the last two lines take a turn to outline the cruelty of war and present a heroic and desolate feeling.
"Lei Zhen, what was your immature suggestion just now?" asked King Nanling.
It was obvious that he liked Lei Zhen more and more. He never expected that this reckless young man could write such amazing poems.
The heroic spirit is overwhelming, generous and tragic.
"I'm planning to buy an aircraft carrier for the country, but I'm a little short of cash. If you have enough, old man, please lend me a few hundred million and we can buy it together."
Now that we are here, we can’t go back empty-handed.
They couldn't rob the money, nor could they rob the robbers, so they could only hold high the banner and borrow money from the King of Nanling in the name of the country.
If it's a matter of righteousness, refusing it would be unrighteous...
