To others, this farce is like a joke.
But for the parties involved, this is not a joke, it is life and death.
Kong Qian did not expect that Cao Cao's counterattack was far beyond their imagination. He had just calmed down and immediately launched a fierce revenge, which made Kong Qian a little confused. I wonder if it was Cao Cao who was too domineering, or if he was actually in a disaster at the moment?
And what is very interesting is that if it is a simple hindsight, it will be said that it is now at this time. Kong Qian still dares to stay in Xu County, dares to sway in front of Cao Cao, dares to attend the Prime Minister's Mansion so arrogantly, etc....
But in fact, reality is often so weird.
Even more bizarre ones.
For example, in ancient times, there was an emperor who heard that the people were starving to death and changed their children to eat, and then said why not eat meat minced meat? In modern times, there were also brick houses that didn’t rent free houses and ran to the brick houses...
Is it ridiculous, ridiculous, weird, weird.
But the problem is that such people are not only saying this, but also doing this!
Just like what Kong Qian felt right now, in addition to fear, he felt more humiliated and angry! The humiliation was because he felt that it was very unbearable to be exposed in public, and the anger was because no one said "justice" for him!
Is this still a Shandong Shilin?
Is this still the hometown of Yuzhou’s culture?
Is this a person from Yingchuan who usually calls brothers and has great scholars?
how so?!
It should be noted that in the old year, during the Party and the Corruption Disaster, the Kong family also survived the brutal suppression and persecution of Emperor Ling of Han? No matter how arrogant Cao Cao is, is he even more cruel than Emperor Ling of Han back then?
What is even more hateful and annoying are the guys who were beside Kong Qian before, who shouted and wanted to advance and retreat together. Seeing that the situation was not good, they immediately shut up and shrank their heads, as if they immediately forgot whether they knew Kong Qian!
A few days ago, it was known that under the palace wall, Cao Cao used a large butcher knife to kill the officials who claimed to be "fighting fires". In addition to frightened, Kong Qian had to admit that he had indeed miscalculated the situation.
Kong Qian originally thought that Cao Cao would not dare to act rashly. After all, Cao Cao still needs the support of the people in Yingchuan. At most, Cao Cao was just a few small surnames of the side branches to attack, and it doesn’t matter if he killed a few small surnames of the side branches.
As long as you don’t kill yourself, what’s the point of dying someone else?
What a scholar, why is it a bit decent?
It's like a Swiss roll...Ahem, anyway, "If you don't eat for a day, you will be hungry!"
Since those mediocre people are not enough to make up for their own plans, Kong Qian naturally cannot make any progress and retreat with them. Those vulgar people, being captured and killed, may also help Cao Cao get rid of some of his anger?
Even if Cao Cao took his anger towards him, Kong Qian had a special status!
Descendants of the Kong family!
Descendants of sages!
A representative figure of Shandong Shilin!
What's more, Cao Cao was busy dealing with external troubles, so it was difficult to take revenge on him directly. Perhaps Kong Qian could not only find an opportunity to show that he did not intentionally, but that all the mistakes were made by Dahe. If he apologized, it would be over. If it really didn't work, he could also ask the emperor to come forward and ease the relationship between him and Cao Cao.
What a big deal? Is killing a person just a head-on slap!
What's more, if Cao Cao really wants to make things right, he must use Kong Qian himself! Since he must have some usefulness, he will not die!
At least I won't die right now...
Kong Qian was thinking this in his heart, so he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion openly and sat in the first place. On the one hand, he could understand Cao Cao's movements as soon as possible, and on the other hand, he also tried to use this method to express that he actually respected Cao Cao very much and worked hard. The previous ones were just misunderstandings!
Even Kong Qian had a good idea in his mind, thinking that he would be humiliated by Cao Cao at most. As long as he was not beheaded or scolded a few times, he would not lose any meat. Anyway, he just needed to admit that he was not meticulous in his work and was not thorough in thinking. But is this good for the sake of the great man, and is this good for the wish of the people...
But Kong Qian never expected that he would be impeached for a while shortly after sitting down!
Kong Qian suddenly felt a sudden stern, and subconsciously stood up and said angrily: "This is a big mistake! Some loyal people come for their family, country, and country, but they don't know..."
Before Kong Qian finished speaking, he saw Xiahou Dun's face darkening and shouted in a deep voice: "Who is the one who is in charge of the ceremony in the hall today? What should he be guilty of roaring at the court for no reason?!"
Although the Prime Minister's Court meeting is not as rigorous as it is in front of the emperor and in Chongde Hall, it does not mean that there is no rules at all! What's more, no matter when, even when you are impeached and attacked, according to the etiquette rules, you should listen quietly. Regardless of whether the other party makes sense, whether the other party says it is right or wrong, it is all the time to wait for the other party to finish everything. The person who presided over the meeting asked, and it is his turn to defend himself.
Otherwise, what official is he called? What kind of etiquette house is he called? What kind of person is he called? He is called a high-ranking person? He interrupts casually and roars, isn’t he likes the merchants and groceries in the vegetable market?
This is the rule.
If there is no such rule, the court will become a place where each other can speak out, so what kind of discipline is it? What are the things to discuss and what national policy to discuss? Whoever can shout loudly will be more scolded.
Xiahou Dun stood up and scolded the officials in the ritual state today, but of course the target was Kong Qian.
Although Kong Qian is a saying that he is well-read in poetry, he is not sure that he is wise. Moreover, Kong Qian used to claim to be a famous scholar in the brick family, and he respects others wherever he goes. He is the one who points his fingers at others. Where is it time for others to use words to squeeze him?
In addition, Kong Qian had never been in the court. Although he was not unaware of the court etiquette norms, just like many officials ignored some slogans and words engraved on the outer wall of the official party and looked at them every day, but they were not seen every day. When they opened their mouths to the people, they represented the court. I meant the great man. In addition, they were anxious for a moment and immediately threw the etiquette rules in their minds behind their minds and messed up the rules.
When Kong Qian heard Xiahou Dun scolding him, he suddenly woke up and quickly apologized: "I'm rude, I'm rude, I'm rude, I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry..."
Guo Jia sat in the table beside him, and when he saw this scene, he felt relieved. At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh. Kong Qian was so embarrassed and lacked steady. Who gave you the courage and the courage to easily get involved in this bottomless muddy water?
You Kong Qian thought Cao Cao asked Xiahou Dun to come to listen to Xiahou Dun's military information? Cao Cao himself didn't know these military information? Haha, that was what Xiahou Dun said to the other officials below!
The surrounding area is about to be calmed down, do you understand? Do you know what it means?
Since everything is going to be pacified and external troubles are not very serious, of course we have to deal with internal troubles!
A total idiot!
Thinking of this in his heart, Guo Jia turned his head and looked at Cao Cao. He was curious about how Cao Cao would deal with Kong Qian, a living treasure...
Is it a crime of losing etiquette in the court? It can be big or small?
After all, after the Han Dynasty established the dynasty, Confucianism paid more attention to Confucianism and praised the status of Confucius and Mencius, so that even the Kong family seemed to have become superior. Even if there was any mistake, they would raise the board high and put it down gently. At most, they would criticize it, order it to rectify it, and let it apologize and be done.
When the Han Dynasty was powerful, there were very strict court etiquettes, and it could even be said to be strict regulations. Because of the wrong sitting posture, they were deprived of political power for life. In the end, there were all those who had their titles and houses were confiscated. Needless to say, they directly retorted when they were impeached. Kong Qian's nature is obviously much more serious. It is not just about being dismissed from office to avoid suspicion, but also returning to the court after the matter is over.
At this moment, the King Bi, who was in charge of the rituals, had already stood up and bowed and said, "In the court, rudely roar, twenty rods."
After hearing this, Kong Qian's face in the hall was extremely difficult to see.
Although Kong Qian himself made this low-level mistake, he still felt that it was just a roar. No, it was not even a roar. It was just a last resort and argued for himself. How could it be considered "irrespectful"?
Kong Qian was about to step forward, but he saw that Cao Cao had raised his hand and looked around for a week, "Everyone, do you have any other opinions?"
"…" There was silence in the hall.
Kong Qian also widened his eyes, looking at the guys who had drunk wine and even sipped on Brother Kong, but found that the people were shrinking their necks and closing their eyes, just like wooden sculptures.
Kong Qian's hand was shaking, stretched out his hand, "You wait..."
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and looked at Kong Qian's gaze. The corners of his mouth moved slightly. After waiting for a while, he waved his hand.
Suddenly, a guard rushed up from the hall, held Kong Qian by hand, then dragged him down, pressed him down the hall with a grunt, and then rubbed Kong Qian's robe from behind, and immediately exposed his butt.
Cao Cao raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at him, and turned his head without any interest.
『Skip twitter...』
"What a pity..."
"A little white..."
『…』
The raised board fell down, and then there was a scream of Kong Qian's mouth being blocked.
…_(:з」∠)_…
After the court meeting, except for the officials who were left to have a separate question and answer, the rest of the officials of all sizes returned one after another. Those who had specific positions would go back to the government to handle relevant matters, those who had no specific positions, or those who were like Guo Jia who could be lazy even if they had positions, so they would just go home directly.
In the evening, Chen Zhong came, handed over the famous assassin for his visit, and brought two jars of wine.
Guo Jia raised his eyebrows, then his eyes stayed on the word "Wine" for a long time, and finally slipped for a while. After thinking about it, he stood up and went out to greet him.
Chen Zhong is the son of Chen Chen. Chen Chen died early, so his family will be affected to a certain extent. Naturally, there is no room like Chen Qun in the Chen family, and he has more say.
Guo Jia did not have any special friendship with Chen Zhong and had little contact with him before. It can even be said that Guo Jia had few contacts with most of the Yingchuan gentry and even the Guo family.
The host and guests sat down and sang and chatted.
"If someone expected it is not bad..." After drinking some wine, Guo Jia said with a smile, "Are you here for the son of Kong?"
Chen Zhong was slightly stunned for a moment, and then denied: "I have no friendship with the Kong son... However, this admonishing visit is related to some of the related matters..."
"That's who in your clan pleads for you?" Guo Jia laughed and said, "It's rare, rare!"
Chen Zhong smiled awkwardly and said, "It's my nephews... I came to the door, so I can't just refuse..."
Guo Jia nodded, "I understand."
This time, or the turmoil in Xu County, involved a lot of things and affected a lot of people. Those who were beheaded on the spot and were arrested later, causing the families of many officials throughout Yingchuan to be severely damaged or even overturned.
