Perhaps it is because everyone's DNA is different, so everyone is strictly a unique individual and has unique thoughts and concepts.
Once such personal thoughts and concepts are formed, it is difficult to change. Why do countries invariably choose nine-year compulsory education? If you do not accept such compulsory education, you may even violate the law and be enforced.
?
It is still the old saying, there is no love without reason, and there is no hate without reason.
If you obtain corresponding benefits, you must pay a corresponding price.
One peck and one drink, there is destiny.
Fei Qian didn't expect that Lu Bu would come to him, because Fei Qian thought that Lu Bu was proud, like a lone wolf on the grassland. Although he was lonely, he would still stand proudly on the high hillside instead of running down and begging for mercy.
.
So based on this conclusion, Lu Bu's behavior in coming to Hedong is extremely suspicious, and there must be an ulterior secret hidden behind it.
But on the other hand, it is still possible for people to be changed. If you hit a wall and feel the pain, there are still some people who cover their heads and take a detour even though they are reluctant. So, at the moment, which kind of person does Lu Bu belong to?
?
After all, Lu Bu is Marquis Wen.
As mentioned before, there are three types of positions in the Han Dynasty: self-recommendation, joint name, and canonization. Self-recommendation is like what Yuan Shao did before, claiming that he was a general of cavalry.
However, these two positions were not counted in the orthodox concepts of the Han Dynasty. The only official positions that could really be put on the table in a grand manner were the official positions conferred by the imperial court.
Just like Liu Bei served as the governor of Qingzhou and the shepherd of Xuzhou, but everyone recognized him as the governor of Yuzhou, because this was the only governor of Yuzhou who was given the title by Cao Cao in the name of the imperial court after Liu Bei defected to Cao Cao.
Although Lu Bu, the Marquis of Wen, was conferred by Dong Zhuo, and after Dong Zhuo was killed, many of his official positions were invalidated, but Lu Bu was different. After assassinating Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun reiterated it again on behalf of the court, and conferred the title of Lu Bu on Fen.
General Wu, the Third Division of Yitong, Jiajie, etc. are equivalent to the approval of the imperial court and whitewashing Lu Bu's official position. Just like Fei Qian's General of the Expedition to the West, he is an official position recognized by the imperial court.
Everyone has a bottom line, and those who don’t have a bottom line will not be welcomed by anyone. This is true whether it is ancient or modern. On the one hand, he does not abide by the rules, and on the other hand, he requires others to abide by the rules. Such a character is
Didu has been emperor for a short time. Therefore, Fei Qian needs to know what the bottom line is for Lu Bu or Lu Bu and this small group of people?
If you ask directly in the open, you will often not get the correct result. In other words, even if you ask in person and get an answer, it is often not an accurate result, so Fei Qian can only observe in secret.
"Brother, this is Pingyang..." Standing on a slope in the southern suburbs of Pingyang, Fei Qian sat on his horse and pointed with his whip, saying, "Back then in Pingyang, the four gates collapsed and the city wall was only
The rammed earth was left, and the streets were clogged with abandoned objects. It was in the abandoned city of Pingyang that Liangdao resisted Bai Bo's attack, and finally defeated Bai Bo here, and finally recovered this area..."
Lu Bu looked at the big red city in the distance and couldn't help but take a breath, "This... this Pingyang seems to be bigger than Luoyang!"
"Haha..." Fei Qian did not answer directly, but smiled and said, "Luoyang City is nine miles long from north to south, six miles wide from east to west, and has twelve gates... Pingyang is just a city in a county, so it is not
Dare to violate the number, the outer city is seven miles from north to south, east to west, and has two gates on each side..."
If Pingyang continues to develop, it is very likely that it will be expanded, but it may not be appropriate to continue to expand the outer city wall, because it may use the Chang'an Mausoleum model to build some satellite towns, but this matter will have to wait at least five years
Years have passed, so Fei Qian hasn't told Lu Bu about this now.
But even without describing the scale and direction of future development, the current hugeness of Pingyang has made Lu Bu's eyes widen. He had heard of Pingyang's prosperity before, but he never expected it to be of such scale! When Lu Bu traveled to Bingzhou
, I have also been to the abandoned Pingyang, but the scene in front of me now makes it really difficult for Lu Bu to combine the abandoned Pingyang in his mind with everything in front of him...
"This is simply..." Lu Bu shook his head and sighed, "It's unbelievable..."
Normally, the time required to build a city is calculated in years. Five to ten years is common. However, Pingyang City has been reconstructed and expanded in just a few years. This is
I have to say it is indeed an amazing thing.
Of course, to achieve today's speed, in addition to the prosperity of business and trade, Huang's workshop provides a large amount of comprehensive support for construction, from raw materials to construction tools, which is also an important factor.
Fei Qian did not continue to explain, but nodded and said in agreement: "Yes, sometimes I find it unbelievable... But since it happened, there is a reason for its existence... Brother, please come here."
"Ah?" Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing, nodded, turned his horse's head, and followed Fei Qian's pace.
Red Rabbit snorted impatiently, and tried several times to kick Fei Qian's mount, which was half a horse ahead, but was caught by Lu Bu. Finally, Lu Bu impatiently slapped Fei Qian on the head.
He was being honest, but he was still snorting and shaking his mane, looking very unhappy.
Xun Chen had already lined up and waited at the Shiliting Pavilion. After seeing Fei Qian and Lu Bu arrive, he first saluted Fei Qian and then met Lu Bu.
As he said this, Lu Bu laughed and looked relaxed.
Everything seems to be in harmony...
…………………………
Pingyang Second Ring Road.
Posthouse.
Wei Xu walked around and came back, handing over his hand to report: "I checked, there is nothing abnormal around."
Chen Gong nodded, and then said: "Thank you, Captain Wei." He motioned for Wei Xu to retreat.
Wei Xu was stunned for a moment, glanced at Lu Bu, and when he saw Lu Bu nodded slightly, he silently backed away, taking the surrounding guards away as well.
"Why is Gongtai like this..." Lu Bu looked at Wei Xu and said.
Chen Gong said in a low voice: "If you want to achieve great things, you must be careful with your words and deeds. I also know that Captain Wei's character is not bad, but it is just a precaution."
Lu Bu waved his hands, not wanting to continue this topic, and said, "If you have anything to do on the public platform, just tell me!"
"General Zhengxi..." Chen Gong did not continue to be polite. After all, this matter has been dealt with many times. It's just that Lu Bu has never made up his mind. "You came all the way, but you didn't say where you would settle?"
Lu Bu lowered his eyelids and nodded silently.
"How long will Marquis Wen hesitate?" Chen Gong leaned forward slightly, "Zheng Xi is polite on the surface, but in fact he is wary of Marquis Wen... If Marquis Wen doesn't make a plan early, he will fall into the hands of others sooner or later!"
Lu Bu glared at Chen Gong but said nothing.
Chen Gong was not afraid of Lu Bu's expression, and continued to speak slowly: "Marquis Wen, the defeat of Yanzhou was due to Zhang Shijun's slow actions, and the defeat of Luoyang was caused by a weak foundation. It was not Marquis Wen's fault.
Also, now that Marquis Wen has returned to Bingzhou to establish a foothold, this is an excellent opportunity that must not be missed!"
Lu Bu frowned deeply and said, "I regard Zhengxi as a brother, how can I bear it..."
Chen Gong interrupted Lu Bu's words and said: "Marquis Wen's words are wrong! It is not Marquis Wen who seizes the cause of conquering the west, but Marquis Wen joins hands to create it together! Why not?"
Lu Bu blinked, thought for a moment, and was obviously more excited than before, and said, "I would like to hear the details."
"Marquis Wen needs to know that although the campaign to the west seems to be strong at this time, the foundation is not yet stable. There are Qiang people in the west who are not yet settled, Xianbei in the north who are not pacified, Sichuan and Shu in the south who also need to be conquered, and General Yuan in the east..." Chen Gong whispered.
Said, "It can be said that we are fighting on all sides..."
Lu Bu nodded and said: "It seems to be true, but how can we say that we are joining hands... this..."
"Don't be anxious, Marquis Wen." Chen Gong stroked his beard and said, "Although there is no war with General Yuan at the moment of Zhengxi, there will be no long-term peace. There must be a battle... It would be better for Marquis Wen to meet Zhengxi in person and ask for a favor.
The position... firstly, you can continue to lead the army, so that your life and death will not be in the hands of others; secondly, you can have a place to stay, so that your son can have someone to rely on; thirdly, it is also the wish of Marquis Quanwen to return to his hometown..."
After hearing this, Lu Bu's breathing became noticeably faster. He frowned, tilted his head, and after a long time said, "I understand the meaning of Gongtai... It's just that this position is so important, how can Zhengxi accept it lightly?"
Chen Gong said with a smile: "If the expedition to the west is not allowed, Marquis Wen can turn to the next best thing... In this way, firstly, he will feel guilty about the expedition to the west, and secondly, in order to improve his reputation as a good man, he will definitely allow it..."
Lu Bu was silent for a moment, still undecided, and said, "I'll think about it again..."
Chen Gong was a little helpless, sighed, shook his head and said: "Marquis Wen..."
"I said... I'll think about it again..." Lu Bu said with a frown, and then felt that he seemed to be sorry for Chen Gong by saying this, so he added, "I also know that Gongtai is dedicated to me, but this matter is very important.
, I still need to think about it, please forgive me..."
Lu Bu had already said this, what else could Chen Gong say, so he just cupped his hands and retreated...
…………………………
Pingyang government office lobby.
Xun Chen sat aside, stroking his beard, squinting his eyes and said: "Marquis Wen is brave, but he is brave... so Marquis Wen may not have many ideas in his mind. I am afraid the key lies in Chen Gong and Chen Gongtai..."
Although Xun Chen did not have much contact with Chen Gong, as a counselor's intuition, Xun Chen concluded that Chen Gong must have played a certain role in it.
Fei Qian was also a little helpless.
Zhou Zhang gave Lu Bu a plan and asked Lu Bu to give up Luoyang. Fei Qian had just learned about this, but Zhou Zhang did not come back with Lu Bu and still stayed in Luoyang. After all, as a professional who knows some agricultural technology, as long as he does not
Taking the initiative to stir up trouble is extremely popular no matter where you are...
In addition, Zhou Zhang's hometown is in Heluo. Although his official position as a military commander is not high, he is quite noble, so naturally he will not give up everything easily and return to Pingyang to be a big-headed soldier or soldier.
He is an ordinary civil servant.
Perhaps in Zhou Zhang's mind, persuading Lu Bu to join Fei Qian was a way of repaying Fei Qian, but the problem was that this method brought Fei Qian not only joy, but also some surprise.
Fei Qian nodded and said slowly: "I have something that I don't understand...Chen Gongtai...who is he..."
Xun Chen was stunned for a moment, obviously not keeping up with Fei Qian's rhythm. After pondering for a moment, he frowned and nodded and said: "If my lord didn't mention it, I didn't pay attention to it... It's true that I was negligent and didn't think carefully.
I hope my lord will forgive me..."
Fei Qian waved his hand and said: "If you don't have to be like this, friends, no one is perfect, how can someone be knowledgeable about everything at all times? Everyone has their own emphasis..."
Xun Chengong thanked Fei Qian with his hand, and then said: "So... Chen Gongtai should be under the second Yuan, but I don't know whether it is Yuan Da or Yuan Er..."
Fei Qian nodded silently.
According to the current known situation, Chen Gong is obviously not in the same group with Cao Cao, and it is impossible to be with Yang Biao, so Liu Bei, Sun Ce, Liu Biao and Er Yuan are left. Apart from Er Yuan,
Even Liu Biao is not very attractive. Therefore, if Chen Gong has contact with other princes, it can be basically concluded that it must be related to Er Yuan...
The question is whether Chen Gong is a member of Yuan Shao or Yuan Shu.
If it is Yuan Shu, he can still be used to some extent. Because there is no possibility of direct combat between Fei Qian and Yuan Shu for the time being, and Yuan Shu is being violently beaten by Cao Cao and Liu Biao, and most of Yuzhou has been lost. It depends on whether Sun Ce can act like
History has always seen betrayal. If Sun Ce rebelled, Yuan Shu's path would basically come to an end.
But what if Chen Gong is from Yuan Shao...
That would be quite serious.
But the problem is that Fei Qian has no direct evidence to prove this.
Although the laws of the Han Dynasty, well, no matter what time the laws were, they served the political elite, but after all, they had to be maintained on the surface, and Lu Bu was once a prince, and now he just defected to Fei Qian, and then Fei Qian
Qian used trumped-up charges to arrest Lu Bu's men and interrogate them. What will those who come after him think?
Therefore, Fei Qian not only cannot touch Lu Bu, but also cannot touch Lu Bu's men. At least at this stage, he cannot act immediately. Even if he wants to act, he needs to find a suitable reason or make this person completely stinky on the street.
Then he took action, just like Cao Cao endured for a long time before killing Xu You...
Fei Qian sighed and said slowly: "Let's give it a try..."
Only by taking action will there be flaws, so even if there are risks, you still have to give it a try...
