Chapter 270 Chapter 268(2/2)

Do you really think this military advisor doesn’t know how to do it?

Chen Yuan snorted coldly: "I have always admired Confucius in Guanxi for being the prime minister. He resisted the direct abuse of power and acted impartially before his reputation. It can be said that he cherishes the integrity of a king and minister and knows the nature of his duties. So he is tired.

Ye Zaide succeeded him as prime minister. But today, when I look at the people after Duke Boqi, I can’t help but shed tears for Duke Boqi. His reputation as one of the four great masters can be said to be over."

You put my hat on, and I will dig up your ancestral grave and carry your great-grandfather out for you. I will see if you accept it or not.

At this time, the ministers also arrived at the palace gate one after another, and naturally heard the conversation between the two.

If Yang Biao does not respond at this time, the reputation of the Yang family will decline.

The Yang family is able to achieve its current prestige, and Yang Zhen deserves the most credit.

The ghost of Yang Zhen went to Beimang, and the traces of Guanxi became desolate. The reputation of the Four Knowledges has been left in the world, and it should last forever with the universe.

Therefore, Chen Yuan's move directly hit Yang Ci's weakness, forcing Yang Ci to take the move.

Yang Ci could only say angrily: "Chen Zichu, how dare you insult my ancestor?"

When Chen Yuan saw Yang Ci taking the move, he felt at ease.

What I'm afraid of is that you don't accept the move. Since you have accepted the move, how can I avenge the insult from the Golden Palace if I don't scold you until you vomit blood today?

Chen Yuan is a petty person, and he doesn't like any gentleman to take revenge. He will take revenge on the same day, not overnight.

Chen Yuan shook his head: "Why did I humiliate my uncle? I was just humiliating you."

"Chen Yuan, do you dare to say that my ancestor's reputation as the Four Knowledges is over? Are you going to fight to the death with my Yang family?"

Yang Zhen is most famous for the story of the Four Knowledges.

When he passed by Changyi on his way to the county, Wang Mi, the most talented man from Jingzhou whom he had recommended in the past, was appointed as the county magistrate of Changyi. He went to visit Yang Zhen and gave Yang Zhen ten kilograms of gold in the evening.

Wang Mi left in shame.

Because of this incident, Yang Zhen became famous and spread throughout the country.

Of course, Chen Yuan was actually skeptical about this story.

Because this kind of bribery is usually very secretive, there is a high probability that it was just the two of them at the time.

Yang Zhen also said that you know and I know.

Therefore, it is basically certain that it was just the two of them at that time.

Wang Mi failed to send money. It was absolutely impossible for him to tell anyone about such a disgraceful thing.

Unless he is a fool or is forced to do so.

Otherwise, who would tell the truth about his bribery and failed bribery? Wouldn't this ruin his reputation?

Since Wang Mi would not say whether anyone else was present, how did this matter spread?

There was only one result, and that was what Yang Zhen said himself.

The purpose is also very clear, which is to promote one's reputation.

In fact, after this incident, Yang Zhen did rise through the ranks. He first served as a servant, then was promoted to Taichang, and finally became a Situ, one of the three princes.

That is to say, starting from him, the Yang family began the journey of four generations and three princes.

Yang Zhen was a Situ, his son Yang Bing was a Taiwei, his grandson Yang Ci was a Taiwei, and Yang Biao later became a Taiwei.

Therefore, Chen Yuan was skeptical about Yang Zhen.

Chen Yuan was also skeptical about stories about Yuan An lying in the snow, Huang Xiang and Wen Xi, lying on the ice to beg for carps, etc.

Because these things are very secretive, how could they spread so quickly?

There must be an element of deliberate propaganda in this.

There is a story in it that made Chen Yuan shudder after reading it.

That is Guo Jumian'er.

During the Han Dynasty, there was a man named Guo Mingju, whose pseudonym was Wenju, and his family was very poor.

He had a very young son, and Guo Ju's mother often shared her food with her grandson.

Guo Ju's family was too poor to support his mother, and his son had to share her mother's food. What should he do?

So he always waited for his son to leave before going back to his mother's place for food.

The old mother always left food to her son, so Guo Ju wanted to bury his son.

Guo Ju said: "Don't disturb mother. We can have another son, but we cannot have another mother. Why not bury the son?"

Guo Ju's wife did not dare to disobey her husband, so she dug a hole in the ground.

After digging to a depth of more than three feet, he was about to throw his son in, when suddenly there was a thunderbolt, and there was a cauldron of gold in the ground, with the words "God gave Guo Ju, officials cannot take it, and the people cannot take it away!".

What is revealed here is really chilling.

In order to let his mother have enough to eat, he buried his son?

What a distorted view of the world this is, and this story was written into the Twenty-Four Filial Piety and has been passed down through the ages.

Is this really filial piety?

Kill the son and live the mother?

If his mother found out that her grandson died because of herself, how could she survive?

Even if you survive, how painful will your heart be?

This is not filial piety at all, it is a twisted and perverted mentality.

Lu Xun said it well: "At first I was really worried about my child, but when I dug out a cauldron of gold, I felt relieved. However, not only did I no longer dare to be a filial son, but I was also afraid that my father would become a filial son.

"

Yes, if everyone were to learn from Guo Ju, then who would be willing to be a filial son? This not only goes against human ethics, but also goes against the instinct of human reproduction and inheritance.

So, Chen Yuan said something that shocked Yang Ci: "Since there are four knowledges, why is it known to everyone?"

What Chen Yuan meant is that since only heaven and earth know what you know and what I know, why did everyone in the world know about it later?

What is the mystery here? Do you really think everyone is a fool?

It's nothing more than a name-drop.

This is a bad habit in the Han Dynasty, to promote filial piety and honesty based on reputation.

Xiaolian, Xiaolian means filial piety and honesty.

Perhaps Yang Zhenxiao had nothing to promote, so he could only promote integrity.

Therefore, when Yang Ci heard Chen Yuan's words, he couldn't help but shrink.
