"Is Yunchang still studying?" Gongsun Xun opened the door curtain and immediately laughed. "The Master said: Never tire of learning, he is talking about people like Yunchang!"
Guan Yu's wife, Mrs. Hu, who was holding her sleeping child in the house, saw the opportunity and retreated. Guan Yu put down the book in his hand, stood up, bowed calmly, and called him Junhou.
In other words, the longer he stayed in contact with Guan Yu, the more Gongsun Xun felt that this kind of person was destined to achieve something... He was nine feet tall and extremely powerful. He could have relied on God for food, and he could eat and drink enough every day to practice.
Muscles, as a general charging into battle are all top-notch.
However, he happened to be sitting and lying down without letting go of the scroll!
It is said that he is born stronger than you and works harder than you... Gongsun Xun's official position is getting bigger and bigger, and he has more and more talents under his command. However, even Shen Pei, who is particularly in conflict with Guan Yu, has to admit that Gongsun Xun recovered the whole night that day.
The actions of this Hedong murderer can indeed be called a hero with a keen eye!
"I am reading "Historical Records"." After the two parties sat down again, Guan Yu put away the book in his hand.
"Which article can be gained?" Gongsun Xun asked casually.
""Chen She Family"." Guan Yu frowned and replied, "But I have some doubts..."
"Reading history is not as good as reading the classics. Reading the classics is about explaining the big meanings, and reading history is about using the past to learn from the present..." Gongsun Xun said slowly. "I read "Historical Records" that day, and the article "Chen She's Family" was nothing more than three of them.
Words."
"I would like to hear from you, your Majesty." Guan Yu said solemnly, cupping his hands.
"One said: How can the sparrow know the ambition of the swan? The other said: The world has been suffering from Qin for a long time; the other said: Princes, generals and prime ministers, would you rather have the seed?"
Guan Yunchang is not a person who follows what others say, so after he pondered for a moment, he began to seriously ask for advice: "'Princes, generals, and ministers, it is better to have the kind' and 'The sparrows are safe and know the ambitions of the swans,' aren't they the same aspirational words? How can the kings and princes be distinguished?
Listed as number two?”
"That's not the case for me." Under the light of the lamp, Gongsun Xun, who had a neatly trimmed beard on his lips, shook his head and said. "The words 'Sparrow' encourage me not to be afraid of other people's words. When things happen in the world, others will take care of themselves."
I will understand your painstaking efforts and ability; and the words of 'Prince' are to distinguish people. As a superior, you should not distinguish between people because of their origin, but should observe their words and actions..."
"That's it." Guan Yu rarely laughed. "The prince is a superior person, and he is condescending. Naturally, he will have other opinions on the words of the 'prince'. But my vision is a little lower, and I still use it as a word of encouragement for myself."
"If you are a low-ranking person today, you may not be able to be a high-ranking person tomorrow, or be in charge of a party, or command an army... Yun Chang, don't blind your eyesight to Mount Tai. The so-called 'it is better to have the kind' not only implies that talents may not be born from
Being humble also implies that talented people may not come from powerful and rightful families, and they must be treated equally!"
Guan Yu stroked his beard and responded silently.
Gongsun Xun couldn't help but laugh softly: "What does Yun Chang mean by this?"
"Without him, I know that the Lord's words are sincere and kind, and he intends to teach me. Therefore, if I turn my face and refute it, it will be out of etiquette. But if I have to take a high look at those people who come from powerful families, I
But it is extremely difficult to do it... How can we promise something that is impossible? It is better not to do it!"
Gongsun Xun held up his palms and laughed... This Guan Yu is actually cute and stubborn.
However, after he finished laughing, Guan Yunchang continued to ask seriously: "Junhou, there is another saying, 'The world has been suffering for a long time.' Could it be that we can also learn from the past?"
Gongsun Xun immediately solemnly said: "I'm not saying that the great men in today's world have lost all their hearts, but I am saying that if a single spark can start a prairie fire, then those in power should thoroughly reflect on themselves!"
"What the prince said is true!" Guan Yunchang was in awe. "If the kings and leaders of all the counties in the world were like the prince, how could we have the current situation?"
Gongsun Xun was silent for a moment.
"Is there something wrong with what Yu said?" Guan Yu was still serious and confused.
"Do you still remember that when we left Zhao State that day, we encountered refugees gathering on Taiping Road to go to Julu?" Gongsun Xun asked calmly.
"It's natural." Guan Yu responded immediately. "I'm afraid it will be unforgettable for the rest of my life."
"Then do you know how the princes of the imperial court responded?"
"Isn't it okay to let it go?" Guan Yu asked proudly.
"When I arrived in Luozhong that day, my master Liu Gong had just dismissed his post because of the Jingzhao earthquake. It was difficult to report the matter, so I went to Situ Yangci Yang Gong to explain the matter in detail." Gongsun Xun followed the path and was actually not angry.
Not angry. "Mr. Yang was already wary of Taiping Dao. He was even more shocked after hearing my story. He formulated a plan to deal with Taiping Dao and Zhang Jiao in front of me... The situation at that time, if Zhang Jiao was urgently called upon
, fearing that a rebellion would immediately occur and the world would be shaken. So Yang Gong suggested in his memorial not to move Zhang Jiao yet, but to inform the local governors and county governors to take action at the same time. First, the leaders of the thirty-six parties of Taiping Road
Take it, then pacify the Taiping Taoists locally, and finally use a large army to encircle and suppress Julu!"
"This is the right strategy!" Guan Yu praised without hesitation. "This is how it should be handled... But why is there no movement?"
"I don't know." Gongsun Xun said, spreading his hands. "Anyway, the ruler of the day, Shangshu, ordered Duke Cao to know that his destiny was coming, and to be kind to others everywhere. Even Duke Yang, who had never dealt with him, did not stand in the way, and even jointly submitted a memorial. Therefore, the memorial
It must have been sent to the Beigong... As for why the emperor did not adopt it, or whether he saw the memorial, that will happen later. But in any case, the three ministers and the minister in the center really did their duty at that time. "
Guan Yu was silent for a moment. He was also in Luozhong that day, so he didn't know that Cao Jie was a foreigner of Mrs. Feng... This statement may be true.
"There is also the great epidemic in Hebei this summer." Gongsun Xun continued. "Yun Chang may know that we are filling sewage in Zhongshan to kill mosquitoes and isolate the epidemic; he also knows that Zhang Jiao continues to use talisman water to enchant people in the south.
People's hearts are getting bigger and bigger...
"This time he has experience, and the people he takes are all strong and strong. It seems that the people around Julu only know about Taiping Road but not the government!" Guan Yu couldn't help but interjected. "If this continues, something big will happen.
.”
"Yes, but Yun Chang, have you ever known that this time, the knowledgeable people in the court are trying their best to deal with this person as always?"
"I would like to hear the details." Guan Yu's expression became more serious.
"The leader this time is Liu Tao and Liu Shangshu, my superiors at the Shangshu table that day." Gongsun Xunxun introduced. "Liu Shangshu is an important minister of the clan, and has been in charge of the Shangshu Taichung Duguan Cao for many years. This matter should have been handled by him.
It is an internal matter, and his letter this time even bluntly stated that Zhang Jiao wants to rebel!"
"I think this time it was Zhao Zhong and Zhang Rang who took over the throne after Cao Jie died of illness. One of them was narrow-minded and the other greedy for money, and together they blocked the emperor?" Guan Yu couldn't help but interjected.
"No." Gongsun Xun's lips continued to sneer. "Zhao Zhong is a narrow-minded man, and he has always had a bad relationship with Liu Shangshu, so as far as I know, he did try to cover up this memorial in the name of Dachangqiu and Huangmenjian.
However, it was discovered that my master Liu Gong, who was reinstated as Taiwei, suddenly had a hand in the matter. Liu Shi jointly submitted the memorial to Liu Shangshu in the name of Taiwei... Therefore, the emperor himself saw the memorial with his own eyes and read it carefully.
After reading the memorial, the emperor avoided Master Liu and only recruited Liu Shangshu to the imperial court. He dismissed Liu Shangshu's position as minister on the spot in the name of the extra hard work of Zhongdu official Cao, and also gave him an additional official position.
Let him go and revise the Spring and Autumn Classics! As for Zhang Jiao and Taiping Dao, let it be settled."
Guan Yu's eyebrows stood up, but he didn't know what to say!
"Liu Shangshu is a loyal minister." Gongsun Xun sighed quietly. "Everyone in the world knows it..."
"What does the emperor mean?" Guan Yu couldn't bear it anymore. "Everyone in the world knows that Mr. Liu is a loyal minister. Doesn't he know?"
"If you don't know, why does the emperor have to go around like this and relieve Liu Shangshu of his duties with nice words?" Gongsun Xun sighed more and more. "In my opinion, the emperor just finds it troublesome. What is this and that?
Yes, it would be a big trouble if we broke it up, so we might as well just make do with it! Take last year's major events as an example. The Three Dukes cleaned up the government as usual and dismissed hundreds of people at once. Scholars and eunuchs argued endlessly about this.
However, he retained all those he dismissed with the title of Yilang and stayed in Luozhong. Once Tan Shihuai died, Xianbei in the west rebelled on the spot. Huangfu Song, the governor of the north, asked for restoration to Hexi, but he ignored it and opened a palace market in Xiyuan instead.
Doing business; that is, when the Bajun barbarians rebelled, he took it more seriously, but once the rebellion was suppressed, he still forgot about it and turned to overhauling Luoyang... However, I heard that Luoyang was really well built, and there were water trucks.
.”
Guan Yu sighed and said: "The emperor's intention is to say that the emperor is the one who should seriously reflect... If he doesn't cheer up, there will be a spark that will cause chaos?"
"No!" Gongsun Xun stood up and shook his head with his hands behind his back. "Last month, Wang Daoren sent a message from the Anli ship saying that Zhang Jiao's beloved disciple, Dafang Qu Commander Ma Yuanyi, would get up and go to Jingzhou and Yangzhou to gather the local young men.
Thousands of people are preparing to return to Hebei and live there; while in Julu, the food, grass, and cloth donated by believers and powerful men have been piled up in mountains. At this time, flags and weapons may have begun to be made... Yun Chang, the chaos is just around the corner, and there is no need for the emperor.
Cheer up! I just hope he can reflect on this incident."
Guan Yu stood solemnly.
"That's right." Gongsun Xunfu looked back and said, "Is the 'Leng Yansaw' that my mother gave you to Yunchang last year, now you can use it smoothly?"
"It doesn't matter if you go with it or not. It is your duty to kill thieves for the country!" Guan Yu bowed and bowed.
Gongsun Xun nodded and went straight out.
Outside the door, Mrs. Hu held her three-year-old child in her arms and bowed with all her strength. Gongsun Xunfu touched the head of the boy named Guan Ping again before he came out proudly.
It is said that Fanyu Pavilion is the gateway to Youzhou, and it is also a famous pavilion in the world. It has always been called together with Dukang Pavilion in Zhuo County, which represents the heart of Youzhou. Therefore, the regulations are not more than ordinary pavilions. Gongsun Xun has seen the only one.
Guan Yu, who had not yet rested, came out, but did not go to sleep. Instead, he continued to stand in the vast pavilion and look at the stars above his head... However, between winter and spring, where are the stars to speak of?
The concubines in the house waited for a long time, but there was no trace of their husband for a long time. In the end, they took their children or rested alone.
I don't know how long I had been waiting, but suddenly there was a sound of horse hooves outside the pavilion, and when it came closer, it disappeared again. It seemed that because I was afraid of being disturbed, I dismounted and walked.
Finally, with the sound of whispers, dozens of people came back surrounded by Han Dang.
"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Righteous." Gongsun Xun first comforted the other dozens of knights, and then talked to Han Dang alone.
"It doesn't matter, it's because the Lord of Labor has been waiting so hard." There was no one around, so Han Dang quickly reported back. "But Lord, don't worry, the beginning and end of Zhongshan have been dealt with, that is, the students of Lunu (Zhongshan County) Public School
They have all been told to go home..."
"That's good." Gongsun Xun said with a smile. "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Yi. I was anxious to come to Zhuo County to take office and control the situation. Zhongshan was inevitably a little hasty."
Han Dang was about to speak but stopped.
"Between you and me, speak directly if you have anything to say." Gongsun Xun said indifferently. "If you even have scruples in front of me, then you won't be able to listen to the truth."
"Actually, it's not a big deal." Han Dang quickly explained. "I mean that the young man from a poor family, who has a similar name to my wife, is called Zhao Yun..."
"Why not take him under his command?" Gongsun Xun said with a smile before the other party finished speaking. "Is that what you mean?"
"Exactly." Han Dang said frankly. "Others don't know, so don't I know how much the prince values that young man? In the past three years, he first sent me to Zhending to look for him several times. After finding him, he gave me books and books.
Ma. Junhou, with all due respect, although he has to stay in his hometown to serve as filial piety because his parents died, he is only the second son of a poor family after all. Now that he has become an adult, the prince likes him and has given him many gifts.
If you're kind to him, I guess he won't refuse to write that letter, right?"
"There is no need to force such a person." Gongsun Xun shook his head after hearing this. "It was only after I got to know him that I suddenly realized... As the saying goes, those who have gained the Tao will have many helpers, while those who have lost the Tao will have few. A hero with his own ideas like this can
You have gained their support for a while, and when you do something or don't do something in the future, they will naturally make a decision about whether to leave or stay! In this case, it is better to work quietly and practice myself. If I really have a destiny in the future,
Such dragons among people who have a chance with me will naturally gather around me like rivers flowing into the sea! In fact, it's not just him. I also asked Qian Zhao to pay attention to a person for me in Zhuojun, that is Yunchang
After being with him for several years, I’m not sure I can stay with him forever... that’s about it!”
Han Dang's upper limit was limited, so he was a little confused when he heard this, but now that Gongsun Xun had explained it, he had no choice but to put away his unnecessary thoughts on this matter.
That’s right!
Gongsun Xun has been working diligently in Zhongshan in the past few years, building up administration and establishing a stable society for the people... but he has not shown any edge to the outside world for a long time, and he has not even gathered the so-called heroes of the Three Kingdoms like he did before like collecting stamps (Gongsun Da Niang said).
It's not that he doesn't want to... In fact, in the past three years, if nothing else, he has found three outstanding figures in the three neighboring counties around Zhongshan. One is in Zhending, called Zhao Yun, and he was crowned a few days ago.
One is Zhao Zilong; the other is called Zhang Fei, whose courtesy name is Yide, in Zhuojun, where he is about to take office; and the third one is in Hejian, whose name is Zhang Jia, whose courtesy name is Junyi.
Logically speaking, these three people should have been taken into their hands directly after they were found.
However, just after finding Zhao Yun, something suddenly happened that greatly touched Gongsun Xun, and he changed his mind - his eldest brother Gongsun Zan was transferred from the Liaodong vassal state to the magistrate of Zhuoxian County.
Before he took office, he wrote to Liu Bei and asked him to be the county captain of Zhuoxian County, but Liu Bei actually refused to accept it in the name of filial piety!
Qianzhao and Liu Bei were close friends, but he noticed some of the other's intentions... It turned out that the reason was very simple. Gongsun Xun was by his side, and Liu Bei would rather wait for the former than follow Gongsun Zan. He felt that Gongsun Xun was the one who could do great things.
, but Gongsun Zan was too narrow-minded.
In other words, Liu Bei, who was naked and had no ambition at all, actually looked down on Gongsun Zan at this time!
This incident was casually mentioned by Qian Zhao at a private banquet in the form of flattery, but it had a great shock effect on Gongsun Xun himself. At the same time, Gongsun Zan's arrival also reminded him of his mother's story.
The relationship between Zhao Yun and his eldest brother... Zhao Zilong first followed Gongsun Zan, and his status was determined, but in the end he left because of the death of his brother. However, after waiting for seven years, after Gongsun Zan was defeated, Zhao Zilong was in Yecheng.
When he met Liu Bei, who was relying on someone else, he still swore to die and followed him for half his life!
In other words, Gongsun Xun realized at this time that such a heroic man would do nothing just because he recruited his opponent. He had different ways of doing things and would rather abandon his post for seven years than help you.
No matter how hard it is, I will fight you to the end! This is what Zhao Yun is like, isn't it true for Guan Yu who has been taken under his command? What about Zhang Fei?
Of course, the most important thing is that it’s not necessary!
The Yellow Turban is coming, and he has been planning for a long time. He will rise up and cleanse Hebei... These famous generals in Hebei, including Liu Bei himself, will probably be under his influence. By then, if he is really powerful, there is no need to recruit them.
, I am afraid that I can take the initiative to gather them under my own command!
And if you don't have the power or ability, what's the use of forcing these people?! When all of them follow Liu Bei, who is more popular, won't he be laughed at like Gongsun Zan?!
Gongsun Xun had a plan, and Han Dang immediately shut up and stopped talking about it. But just as he was about to turn around and go to rest, he remembered something again: "Your Majesty, since chaos is about to happen, should I let my wife and the others take the two young masters with them?"
, go back to Liaoxi together, or even go to Liaodong to meet the two young ladies? What if we don’t go there, but go to Yuyang temporarily? "
Yuyang is the place where Gongsun Zan served after Gongsun Xun moved to Zhuo County as the prefect. He is now the Yuyang Order; the two sons are Gongsun Xun's eldest son Gongsun Ding and his concubine Gongsun Ping. The former is the daughter of Zhao Yun.
The latter is the daughter of Feng Zhi, they are both still young, and they are brought with them by themselves; and the two female princes are the eldest daughter Gongsun Li and the youngest daughter Gongsun Zhen. The former is the daughter of Bian Yu, and the latter is the daughter of Qin Luofu, but they are both raised.
At Lady Gongsun's place in Liaodong, two concubines came over again.
"No need!" Gongsun Xun hesitated for a moment, but immediately shook his head firmly. "Let them live in Zhuoxian... If I am going to lose Zhuoxian, I might as well kill myself here to avoid being exposed to the world.
What a joke!"
Han Dang immediately raised his hand and said yes.
As for this, the fourth watch was actually approaching, and Gongsun Xun and Han Dang were about to rest separately... However, at this moment, there was another burst of horse hooves galloping on the road outside the pavilion, and then they kept coming from a distance.
It was close, and finally it seemed to stop outside the pavilion.
Not to mention Gongsun Xun and Han Dang's respective expressions changed, but the people who were accompanying them, such as Lu Fan, Lou Gui, Guan Yu, Shen Pei, Wang Xiu, etc., also stood up on alert... There was a commotion in the pavilion, and the lights were brightly lit.
"I'm being presumptuous!" There was also chaos outside the door for a while, and then someone suddenly spoke out loudly. "I shouldn't have come in such a hurry that I disturbed everyone... May I ask if Gongsun, the prefect, is staying in the pavilion?"
I, Guo Xun, the governor of Youzhou, heard the news and came to greet you!"
Gongsun Xun had a dark face and stared coldly at the door of the pavilion. He didn't say anything for a while, and the people in the pavilion also held their breaths when they saw this.
Hearing that there was no more movement in the pavilion, he paused for a moment outside the door, but added a few more words: "I am from Taiyuan County, a brother of the former Yanmen Prefecture Guo Yao, and a younger brother of the former Liangzhou Governor Guo Hong.
...I am a real family friend with Grand Administrator Gongsun! Although this trip is presumptuous, it is not malicious! I would like to ask Grand Administrator Gongsun to meet in person for a while!"
"Open the door!" Gongsun Xun, who had not slept all night, waved his hand helplessly.
