36. Kong Yiji taught us: Stealing a book is not considered stealing, it is called stealing
"Okay, so big, so spectacular."
"Yes, no matter how many years have passed, every time I think about this, I feel that my life is not in vain."
"I don't know when the murderous thoughts in my heart have calmed down. It's such a wonderful feeling."
"Studying things to gain knowledge, being sincere and upright, harmonizing the family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world. This is the source of inner sage and outer king."
“…” “…” “…”…
Li Shushi and other generals just stood in front of a group of buildings and sighed, as if they were uneducated if they didn't say anything. Although what everyone said was rough or elegant, there was only one core idea, and that was emotion.
to the scene in front of you.
In fact, the building complex in front of us does not seem to have anything special to write home about. It is neither as magnificent as the royal palace that Li Shushi and others passed just now, nor as rich as the royal gardens that Li Shushi and others passed by just now.
There are all kinds of rare and exotic plants and strange stone buildings that cannot be named. From a distance, this place seems very ordinary.
But when you calm down and observe carefully, you will find that this place is not as ordinary as it seems on the surface.
Now the entire palace is in raging fire, and various sounds of collapse due to building structures being damaged by the fire appear from time to time. Echoing this are various cries for help and shouts of killing. It can be said that the entire palace is now
It's already a mess.
However, this place is very different. It is like a paradise far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and like a fantasy town separated from the outside world by a layer of Hakurei barrier. The noise of the outside world cannot affect this place at all.
The eyes of the scholars did not notice what was happening in the outside world at all. They only cared about the books in their hands that seemed very attractive.
This is a world that is peaceful and filled with the aroma of books. This is a world that makes people suddenly calm down. Here is...
"It is indeed the largest national library in Han Dynasty and should be the largest in the world at this time. It is the east view of Han Dynasty."
Although the empress dowager He who was in trouble still wanted to put on airs as a queen mother in front of Li Shushi, a group of "inferior people" in her eyes, it was a pity that she obviously overestimated her current influence and underestimated Li Shushi's dislike of her.
degree.
In Li Shushi's eyes, she was just an empress dowager who was about to expire, a useless person who was imprisoned less than half a year after Dong Zhuo entered the capital. What's more, she collaborated with He Jin to poison the empress dowager Dong, and at the same time repeatedly prevented He Jin from killing the eunuchs, which eventually led to
He Jin died and Luoyang was in chaos.
Maybe he was afraid that He Jin would become the second Wang Mang? In any case, the last afterglow of the big man was buried by the brothers and sisters of the He family who really don't know if they have limited IQs. Li Shushi didn't kill him on the spot.
It's very restrained.
So for the arrogant Queen Mother He, Li Shushi asked Dian Wei and Xu Chu to come up and perform a muscle show together without saying a word.
Perhaps because she understood that her life was now in the hands of Li Shushi, Queen Mother He would eventually have to swallow her anger and succumb to Li Shushi's "power", otherwise God knows what these rebels (in the eyes of Queen Mother He) would do to her.
What happened.
As soon as the Queen Mother He was honest, the rest of the matter became much simpler. The Queen Mother He was finally handed over by Li Shushi to Cao Cao who came later.
Speaking of which, Empress Dowager He originally wanted to sow discord between Cao Cao and Li Shushi, and it would be better if the two parties finally fought. Unfortunately, although Cao Cao was much more respectful to the Empress Dowager He than Li Shushi, Empress Dowager He soon discovered that this master
She also seems to be deeply dissatisfied with herself. Yes, just because of her, the result
As a result of the death of He Jin and the chaos in Luoyang, all the staff in the General's Mansion immediately became rootless trees. Guys with strong family backgrounds like Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu could still find other careers through the support of their families, but their family backgrounds have always been poor.
Cao Cao, who is not very clean, is in trouble. I heard that his father has already started to move.
However, the Queen Mother is still the escape talisman for Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others, so Cao Cao does not dare to be as presumptuous as Li Shushi, and the Queen Mother He has been too frightened and understands that the most important thing now is to find a safe place.
In order to maintain our own dignity instead of plotting against others in this dangerous place, we considered this matter to have been exposed.
Although Cao Cao wanted to find out the ultimate purpose of Li Shushi's group's trip, but there was a queen mother who had to be protected, so Li Shushi could finally confidently and boldly pounce on the most important goal of his trip, which was the Dongguan mentioned at the beginning.
.
Yes, the goal of Li Shushi's trip was to visit the important books and materials in Dongguan, the largest national library in Han Dynasty. So it's no wonder that Wang Yue thought that Li Shushi was a special robber when he heard about Li Shushi's goal.
.
In fact, robbing Dongguan was not Li Shushi's whim, but a dream of his, a dream that hoped that the inheritance of the Han nation would not be cut off at the hands of his generation.
The Chinese nation has had no shortage of talented people in all dynasties. These people have used cross-era methods to create countless masterpieces that even future generations with modern technology must look up to. However, due to the war, the creations of these talented people have
The ideas, technologies, various masterpieces and even the creators themselves are often either destroyed in the flames of war or lost to unknown corners, and are gradually covered up by the thick history and never see the light of day, leaving endless regrets to future generations.
And now Luoyang is in this situation - first there was a large-scale commotion caused by the death of He Jin, then there were the tough and brutal troops from Xiliang, and then Dong Zhuo's strategic retreat and the burning of Luoyang
, turned the once prosperous imperial capital into nothing. The extent of the losses was impossible to calculate.
Therefore, in order to protect as many technologies and talents as possible, and at the same time strengthen the strength of his own forces, Li Shushi can be said to be determined to be a robber this time. Naturally, such an important place as Dongguan cannot be missed.
It's just that dead things are easy to move, but living people are not. Whether it was Cheng Yu, Jia Xu or Wang Yue, they all reminded him, and this was confirmed by some tentative actions he made in Luoyang in the past two days.
However, Li Shushi was not discouraged. After all, it was not the best time yet. He would have plenty of time later to convince the exhausted talents who had been tortured by the Xiliang army.
So this time, let’s move the books in Dongguanli first. Speaking of which, this is also a quite difficult task.
"Who are you? No noise is allowed here. If you don't have His Majesty's order, don't stay here."
But obviously not everyone is completely immersed in the ocean of books. No, Li Shushi and his party were blocked by a middle-aged uncle. Judging from the seriousness of the uncle, he completely ignored Li Shushi's soldiers with weapons.
With such courage and courage, Li Shushi really felt that the other party was also the number one "talent" who had seen the world.
Of course, I don’t know whether the clothes on the uncle’s back were turned into a transparent wetsuit by the cold sweat on his body.
"Due to the chaos caused by the rebels, large-scale riots occurred in the capital, and large-scale fires broke out in the palace. In order to ensure the safety of the books in Dongguan, we are here to protect and transfer the books, materials and other equipment collected in Dongguan."
As if to match Li Shushi's words, buildings collapsed and various calls for help came from outside. The plumes of smoke rising into the sky were clearly visible from miles away. Everything seemed to be imprinting the same message.
The thing is that Luoyang is really in chaos at this time. Since even the royal palace, which was originally the safest, has been in trouble, let alone Dongguan?
Perhaps realizing that the situation had indeed reached a relatively bad point, the middle-aged uncle who originally planned to stop Li Shushi and his party did not bother to check whether the group really had any orders or handwriting, and directly pointed his finger and told
Li Shushi and others determined the location of the archives and important classics in Dongguan, and asked them to save those things that they considered to be of higher value first.
"It seems like it was a good decision not to take action right away."
Seeing the middle-aged uncle leaving in a hurry, he didn't know whether to find someone to rescue the books or to find someone to put out the palace fire. Li Shushi, who knew that he could move things blatantly, said happily to Jia Xu beside him.
However, contrary to Li Shushi's expectation, Jia Xu did not show an expression that his plan had succeeded. Instead, he looked at the back of the middle-aged uncle with some nostalgia as he left, and slowly spoke as if there had been some sexual conflict between the two.
"After so many years, the people here are still like this. Sometimes I really envy them. I think it might be good if I could stay here all my life to study and do some work like them."
Well, the main reason why Jia Xuhui and Li Shushi are lamenting here is that except for a few ladies, he and Li Shushi are the only ones who do not need to participate in the so-called "moving operation", and the girls over there
The topic was obviously not something that these two male staff members could talk about, so they could only express their feelings about life and reminisce about the past.
"Boom..." At this moment, a medium-sized explosion sounded on the palace wall outside Dongguan. This explosion, like a reminder, immediately made the people in Dongguan more convinced that the disaster would spread here.
, affecting those precious wealth.
Of course, the truth is always in the hands of a few people.
"Speaking of which, although the thing made by my lord can be used directly to kill people, it has very limited effect, but it is also useful for cutting mountains and stones. Whether it is the palace wall or the city wall of rammed earth, it can cause a lot of damage. If you cooperate
If we use trebuchets together, looking at the entire world, there is probably no city that our army cannot conquer."
"Even without that thing, there won't be an invincible city. As long as there are people in the city, there will be gaps in the city, just big and small. Aren't Wen and you the best at this, attacking those seemingly difficult ones from the inside?
An unassailable fortress.”
"However, Xu is more interested in Jinyang's future official education, and he might want to ask the lord for a position there."
The two people looked at each other and smiled, and behind them were the Bingzhou Army who were originally ambushing outside the city and entered here one after another.
