Yu Yue's face turned red and he lowered his head in shame. He murmured: "Brother Mu is right. Although I have heard this truth before, I didn't take it to heart. I thought it was just General Liu trying to win people's hearts.
, asking the lower class people and soldiers to follow his actions, it seems that I am trying to save the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."
Tao Yuanming said coldly: "Yu Gong, the human heart is the hardest thing to see through in the world. Huan Wen did not do anything treasonous back then, and before Wang Mang came to power, no one in the world believed that he would take this step to usurp the Han Dynasty. Mu
Brother, I think we, as nobles, need to remain sufficiently calm and vigilant. Even if you have a good relationship with Marshal Liu, you cannot let this personal relationship affect your judgment, right?"
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Mr. Tao, you really dare to say it. I admire you very much. If you said this in the lobby outside, I'm afraid it wouldn't be as simple as going to jail."
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "This is the so-called friendship between gentlemen. Since Brother Mu said, this is a conversation between friends. If you tell me everything you know, the speaker is not guilty. Since you, Brother Mu, came to ask me in Tingwei
Before, if you ask me to tell the truth, then I will treat you as a friend and I will tell the truth. After all, according to the laws of the Jin Dynasty, there are no scribes here, and we don’t have the procedure of signing and inscribing. I can tell the truth.
, if it reaches your ears, as for whether you will tell others, that is your business."
Yu Yue said quickly: "Brother Mu is a gentleman who honors his word and will definitely not..."
Liu Muzhi said meaningfully: "No, Mr. Yu, I am not a gentleman. I am an intelligence chief, which can also be said to be a cruel official. If there is really valuable information, I will not hide it. However, when the time comes,
So far, I don’t think there is any place to deal with Tao Gong’s crime, because we have laws in the Jin Dynasty. Even if Tao Gong had an affair with the Later Qin Dynasty, we have not dealt with it. But this time he disappeared in Jiankang and appeared again in Jiankang.
I don't want Mr. Tao to go to Tingwei to defeat him, so I want to hear what Mr. Tao has to say. Of course, whether it is true or not, I will definitely have a way to verify it.
"
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Of course I know Brother Mu's methods, so you can rest assured that what I say is true. I, Tao Yuanming, am an upright person, whether I am reorganizing the Black Hand Universe, going to Hou Qin to send troops by myself, or being attacked by demon thieves
The kidnapping was not concealed, and even when Gong Liu and I had different political views and ideas, I never denied it. This is the character of Duke Wen and the integrity of the public!"
Yu Yue's eyes widened: "Gongzhi? What do you mean? I've never heard of it."
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "Public intellectuals, that is, we nobles, have mastered knowledge and do not keep it secretly in their hearts. Instead, they openly and openly proclaim it to the world, so that the world can understand these truths. As for right and wrong, leave it to Ming Li.
Let people judge for themselves, isn’t this what we, the scholars, should do? Our great ancient sage Confucius is such a public knowledge!”
Yu Yue nodded: "Ah, that is a person like Saint Kong. He is indeed a role model for our generation. Mr. Tao, let's not talk about these lies. You should tell us what happened after you were kidnapped.
"
Liu Muzhi said without changing his expression: "I still think Confucius and Tao Gong are completely different. Confucius only preached and taught the world and taught all people culture. He was not like Tao Gong who forcefully poured his own ideas into the world.
In other people's minds, but let's not mention these things for the time being. We have been chatting for too long. I would also like to ask Mr. Tao to tell you why he let you go after you met Xu Daofu."
Tao Yuanming sighed: "At that time, I was still seriously injured and unable to move. The demon thieves put me on a stretcher and led me from a secret passage to the riverside. To be honest, I didn't expect that there were actually people in Jiankang City.
Such a secret passage."
Liu Muzhi said in a deep voice: "Where is the secret passage, where is the entrance, and where is the exit?"
Tao Yuanming shook his head: "I don't know, because after I revealed my identity to the demon thief, the leading thief covered my eyes, and then sniffed me with something like Ecstasy.
I fell unconscious, and it wasn't until I woke up that I realized that I was already on the riverside, and the thieves behind me were running out of a river temple behind me. Apparently, they left the city through a secret passage."
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips and said, "Then why do you know it's a secret passage? Why didn't you fight out from the city gate, or fly out on a Kongming lantern?"
Tao Yuanming sighed: "If I were to escape from the city, it would be impossible for me to be in a coma. And there were no Kongming lanterns near where they came out. More importantly, the thieves must have gone through a secret passage when they came out of the Jiangshen Temple.
, they couldn’t have gone to worship the River God together on their way to escape.”
Yu Yue said quickly: "What Mr. Tao said is true. Brother Mu, there shouldn't be any problems here. I heard Mr. Tao said that the Jiang Temple is near Xinting. I will ask my subordinates to verify it."
Liu Muzhi said calmly: "I will also verify it. Mr. Tao, please continue, after arriving at the river, how did you board the demon thief's ship? I have read the battle report. When the demon thief raided Jiankang, they passed through
The water channel rushed straight to the Nantang area by sneaking underwater, not by landing on the river bank with a small boat."
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "When we arrived at the river, there were more than 20 small and medium-sized boats scattered along the river. It seemed that they were well prepared. I was taken directly onto the boat and then sailed towards the demon thief in the river.
Big ships, along the way, there are also many Qianlong speedboats emerging from the water. It should be that the demon thieves failed to attack Nantang. The people who retreated back. After leaving the Jiang Temple, the cloth from my eyes was removed, so I saw
Be clear."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "The demon thieves had control of the river at that time and roamed freely on the river. They did not have to worry about attacks from our navy. This makes sense. In this way, you brought Xu Daofu's
A big ship? He is directly willing to meet you as a scribe?"
Tao Yuanming shook his head: "I did not see Xu Daofu directly, nor did I board the ship. Instead, I was sent directly to Liyang. I stayed there for two days before Xu Daofu came to see me. During those two days
It's just that someone came to deliver food and a medical officer gave me medicine."
Liu Muzhi softly said "Oh": "Lu Xun didn't come to see you? Ordinarily, a famous person like you, who doesn't fight much, but Lu Xun who is good at government affairs, should come and have a look, and then recruit you."
"
Tao Yuanming sighed: "This is not something I can know. Anyway, Xu Daofu said as soon as he saw me that he is my savior. Without him, I'm afraid Lu Xun would have ordered me to be chopped into meat paste.
Eat all the troops." ()
