Chapter 1814 Pressing the gourd has lifted the gourd
"Is there anything unusual about what Wang Zhongxuan said?"
Now in Xu County, Xun? Not only has to pay attention to the supply of grain and grass to the front line, but also to arrange spring plowing matters. He even needs to pay attention to whether Wang Can has made any small moves. He is so busy that the sky is dark and the earth is dark.
Xiahou has already gone to Yangcheng to make some defensive preparations in advance. After all, no one can guarantee that the Hussars General will not make any moves. If he waits until there is movement to make preparations, it may not be too late.
During this period, Guo Jia was also busy focusing on clearing out all kinds of idle people on the ground in Yuzhou. He didn't pay too much attention to it before, which caused these people with various purposes to pass through Yuzhou easily. After the Yuan Tan incident, these people who were originally
Small people who were thought to be innocuous were also put on the stage of being targeted. Especially in the direction of Jingzhou and Jiangdong, checkpoints were set up for interception and inspection, which could be regarded as a way to remedy the situation.
Because of the existence of Taishan County, which is similar to an "autonomous" territory, Cao Cao's control over subordinate counties has not been greatly improved. Except for the Yanzhou area of Yuzhou that he directly controls, the rest, such as Qingzhou, Xuzhou, etc., are basically
The above are all entrusted to local wealthy families for coordination and management. Naturally, these "temporary workers" will sometimes have problems of one kind or another. Before, they turned a blind eye. Now after the Yuan Tan incident happened, Guo
Jia naturally had a reason to carry out accountability and suppression, so Guo Jia was basically not in Xu County during this period, and was patrolling in other places.
Although people sometimes have strong mental strength, it does not mean that they can maintain it for a long time. Therefore, Xun? He is somewhat tired now, but he is still holding on.
"Wang Zhongxuan went to see Geng Jixing?"
The clerk replied, "I don't know... When the two of them were discussing, there were guards outside to guard them, and they were not allowed to get close..."
Xun? frowned, nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, and then asked the clerk to step back.
Obviously, there must be something wrong with Wang Can and Geng Ji's secret discussion, but what is the specific problem, Xun? You can only make a rough guess, unless Geng Ji is arrested immediately...
It is not impossible to assign some other culpability to Geng Ji, but doing so will definitely cause people to panic, which is not very advisable. It is better to look at it again, sooner or later something will be exposed.
Xun? After pondering for a moment, he ordered, "Come here, go and ask Ren and Yan, the two lieutenants, to come..."
……?`′?……
"I wonder, brother, have you heard that Kong Wenju wants to hold a cultural gathering on the outskirts of Nancheng?"
"Of course! This is our grand event!"
"Kong Wen held this literary conference because he did not want Qinglong Temple in Guanzhong to be more beautiful than before..."
"This statement is wrong! In the wild land of Guanxi, how can there be any style of writing? Only Jiyu can be passed down for hundreds of years! Where does the word come from?"
"Aha, aha..."
"I want to go and have a look, but I don't know if you guys..."
"Go together, go together!"
A group of people went there one after another, and met some other people on the way. When they arrived at the southern suburbs of the city, they found that there were already a lot of people gathered here. They immediately greeted each other, introduced people, said hello and bowed, and sat down to drink.
People chatting in groups made it lively.
Some invited brothel girls sat with them in the crowd, laughing and chatting, becoming eye-catching decorations. There were many young gentry children surrounding them, like insects seeing honey, squeaking.
It's either a performance, an argument, or a show of attentiveness.
Kong Rong was sitting in the Qushui Pavilion, and next to him were some literati from Yingchuan. They were complimenting each other, and then commenting on the articles submitted by some people, looking quite contented.
The cultural gatherings held by Kong Rong were not as formal as the Qinglong Temple Lectures. There were even stipulated daily agendas, speakers, etc. The cultural gatherings here were filled with a relaxed, happy and casual atmosphere.
Of course, in such an atmosphere, there is naturally no special person to preach. If there is someone who wants to express himself, he will publish his "masterpiece" and then everyone will judge it. If it can be appreciated by the majority of people
, you can naturally gain a wave of reputation, which is considered very common and a common cultural model in Yuzhou.
The scene seemed a little chaotic, but there was a kind of harmony in the chaos. From time to time there were quarrels, and then there were a bunch of people watching the fun, joining in the discussion, or simply watching indifferently, not caring about anything but the young ladies in the brothel.
The women chatting and laughing in front of them made the entire cultural gathering lively and lively, as if everyone could find their own place and find their own happiness.
When talking about the literary society, people often think of people pretending to be "beep" and slapping people in the face, etc. However, in fact, the model of the cultural society like Kong Rong, and the person sitting next to Kong Rong is a relatively famous gentry and celebrity, which is not at all
You won’t read an article and immediately snap at it, astonished, and then shout out how amazing so-and-so’s article is. Then, with a “Plop!” sound, you will fall to the ground and kneel down under the skirt of a guy who appears out of nowhere.
Singing "I'm conquered by you like this"...
Even if the article is really good, the most you can do is smile, nod, and say "I don't know who wrote it." Then after seeing who it is, you can make a judgment based on the distance between your family members. If there are some contacts,
If they are getting married or something, they will naturally help and give a shout-out. But if they are outsiders who don't know what they are doing and have no relationship at all, they will at most just say "not bad", and some may not even give a single comment.
The reason is very simple, it is still two words "profit".
The fame of this person, including Kong Rong, did not fall from the sky in vain. To achieve the current fame, I don’t know how much manpower and material resources he and his family have put in, including his personal efforts. In such a situation again
Next, would you easily use such a hard-earned reputation to recommend an outsider who you don't know at all, and who may not have any relationship with him now or in the future?
If it were you, what would you do? Even Cao Cao was considered a son of an official back then. When he arrived in Yingchuan and wanted to make a name for himself, Er Xu refused to speak. He was forced to say something reluctantly, "It goes without saying."
Those children from poor families, and those who can’t even touch the door...
To put it simply, it is like those billboards in later generations. The recommended positions are all clearly marked with prices. A random stranger will say that this product is good. If you don’t pay a penny, you have to be on the brand. If you want to be in the position, someone will laugh.
Haha, let people come in for free?
Therefore, the cultural gathering held by Kong Rong was carried out in a harmonious manner. There was no one who pressed his nose and raised his eyes and insisted on getting in front of others, and there was no one who would get jealous and throw fists at each other just because of a look or something.
There seems to be a lot of love between them...
"Wenju! Someone is here to chat!" Xu You laughed and shouted from a distance, then swayed forward.
"It's actually Ziyuan who's here, it's really brilliant!" Kong Rong also came out from the pavilion to welcome him, "I thought that Ziyuan had heavy official duties and didn't dare to invite me, but I never thought that Ziyuan would condescend to come.
, I am extremely happy!"
Xu You shook his sleeves, with some embarrassment on his face. Ever since the battle between Yuan and Cao, Xu You thought he had hit the jackpot and it would be the harvest season, but what he didn't expect was that Cao Cao would throw him away.
In Xu County, and then... there was no more, so there was any busy official business there, and the reason why I went to Sikong Mansion every day was to remind Cao Amo?
I heard that Kong Rong was holding a literary conference here, so I couldn't help it. I rushed over, but I was greeted by such a sentence. I didn't know if Kong Rong was mocking himself, and I felt a little embarrassed.
"Come on, everyone!" Kong Rong waved his hand and greeted all around, "Everyone! Everyone! Xu Ziyuan is here! If Duke Cao had not had Ziyuan's good advice, he would not have won today! Ziyuan's contribution is very great!"
Come, come and get some wine. I will give you a drink on behalf of the children of Yuzhou!"
Xu You realized that this Kong Rong was also a part-time worker. Naturally, he didn't know whether he had something to do or nothing to do when he went to Sikong Mansion every day. So it was not surprising that Fangcai said that, and now he was doing it in front of everyone.
Come to praise yourself, the original little unhappiness was immediately put aside, smiled again, and raised the wine glass to indicate...
Kong Rong led the crowd and surrounded Xu You into the pavilion, "Brother Ziyuan, I heard that Duke Cao was in great danger at that time. Only with Ziyuan's good strategy can we turn the world around... We don't know much about it, why don't we tell you something about it?"
Didn't this just scratch Xu You's itch?
Xu You chuckled and pretended to decline for a moment or two. Then, under the "strong" request of everyone, he stroked his beard with satisfaction and said the famous saying, "If Cao A can't hide something, he can't be in Jizhou either!"
』
"Oh oh oh..."
The expressions of a group of people were either surprised or sighing, which made Xu You feel extremely satisfied.
In Cao Cao's Sikong Mansion, almost no one paid attention to him. Everyone seemed to have a lot of things to do, but he had nothing. When he told Xun?
When Cao Cao solved some economic problems, he was pushed back by Xun? He said that these things were all designated by Cao Cao now, and he couldn't make the decision. It was better to wait for Cao Cao to come back and make adjustments. His attitude
Soft and well-founded, Xu You couldn't say anything even if he was angry...
So even though Xu You went to Sikong Mansion almost every day, he never got any chance to show off. Now that he finally saw such a large audience, his mood suddenly became high, and he talked about his original situation, attracting onlookers.
The crowd was amazed...
……o￣?￣ブ……
"Xu Ziyuan went to the Wenhui?" Xun frowned and asked again, "But what did he say?"
The clerk didn't dare to say anything, so he just handed over the wooden slip he copied in his hand.
Xun? took it, glanced at it, couldn't help but snorted, and slapped the wooden slip on the table.
Man Chong stood aside, waving his hand for the clerk to go down, and then frowned and asked, "But are there any disrespectful words again?"
Xun? nodded slightly.
Man Chong said, "This person is very proud of his merits and makes many arrogant remarks. He should be punished!"
Xun? was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's just a trivial matter, let's leave it at that for now. We'll find out later when the Lord returns... Hearing that Wang Zhongxuan wants to return, Boning should pay more attention..."
Xu You's strange voice didn't happen in the past two days. What's more, Cao Cao knew Xu You when he was a child. They had been friends for many years. No matter what, it would not be Xun's turn.
? Yue Pao has to deal with this kind of matter on his behalf, not to mention that compared with the two matters of Xu You complaining and Wang Can preparing to leave Xu County, Wang Can is naturally more important.
Man Chong cupped his hands and said, "I accept my orders..."
Wang Can is finally leaving now. For Xun? and others, it is undoubtedly as if there is one less hidden danger that will break out. It is an exciting thing. Of course, this will have to wait until Wang Canche is completely
Only when I finally leave Yuzhou and return to Guanzhong can it be considered complete.
At this stage, for Xun? and others, it is natural to do their best to ensure that there will be no more monsters on Wang Can's side...
Two days later, Xun Man Chong and others looked at Wang Can and his group as they staggered away from Xu County as if facing a formidable enemy. They looked at each other and couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.
"This Wang Zhongxuan actually wanted to meet His Majesty before leaving..." Man Chong snorted from his nose, "It's just wishful thinking..."
When Wang Can was leaving, the two sides almost fell out again because of this incident.
Wang Can said that he was leaving Xu County and had to say goodbye to Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty. But how could Xun? and others allow Wang Can to do so? So Hu Manchong said that His Majesty was not feeling well.
You can convey it on your behalf, etc. But in the end, Wang Can still wanted to climb up the pole, saying that His Majesty was unwell. As a minister, he should be waiting by the side. How could he stay away from something, and then how could he act like so-and-so was indifferent as if nothing had happened?
The appearance made the three zombie gods so angry that they almost couldn't control themselves.
Later, Xun? tried to smooth things over by saying that if Wang Can had anything to say, he might as well submit it to the public and he would definitely convey it to him. As for His Majesty, he was not feeling well and it was indeed inconvenient to receive foreign ministers. Anyway, it was just the same thing, so that Wang Can could do it quickly and easily.
Leave meekly...
Wang Can expressed great anger, then wrote a sharply worded letter and threw it to Xun?, and then categorically rejected the team originally sent by Xun?
, anyway, he left Xu County cursing.
Xun? He threw Wang Can's watch stamp to the table, and then watched Wang Can go away, thoughtfully.
At the moment when Wang Can and his entourage disappeared far away, almost everyone present felt relieved that the plague god had finally been sent away, thinking that it had finally come to an end, but in fact, this was just
