Wang Ling saw Gongsun Xun smiling and saying nothing, but he regained his composure and asked sternly again: "What did the envoy say? General Wei's achievements are known to the world!"
"I'm not good at words, so I'm just telling you the truth." Lu Su answered calmly and raised his hand. "Everyone in the world knows General Wei's achievements and kindness, but during the chaos, it was not General Wei who suppressed Huainan and restored stability and production to Huainan.
We Liu Yuzhou; at that time, it was General Wei who was stationed in northern Henan and caused many people to starve to death in the Central Plains. It was not General Wei but Cao Fenwu. To drive out people like Yuan Shu who were causing harm to the Central Plains, it might have been General Wei who raised the banner, but he raised the sword in the formation.
It was his late grandson Polu who worked hard without caring about his own life; and in the past two years, the people of the Central Plains have been able to communicate with each other, and business travel has converged in various places. Cao Fenwu and my family, Liu Yuzhou, have jointly contributed to Nanyang... These things are there, could it be?
Is it fake?"
Wang Ling was speechless for a moment. He instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he had to admit the sincerity and truth in the other party's words. Even many other ministers, scholars, and talented students on the stage were a little strange, especially Sima Yi and Wang Can.
Thoughts.
"This County Magistrate Wang, you are the number one in political achievements in a state. I think you must know the thoughts and understanding of the people below." Seeing this, Lu Zijing continued to speak slowly. "The world has been in chaos for so long. For ordinary people,
, the greatest kindness bestowed on them is that they can avoid war, have enough to eat, and can give birth safely. In short, they can survive! At this time, the biggest kindness bestowed on them is that they can survive.
', the rest are not worth mentioning... The Central Plains has been in chaos for ten years. As far as I know, except for the Yingchuan area, there are still people who remember that General Wei went there to quell the Yellow Turban, so they are slightly grateful.
But not many people here know who General Wei is! Even if they know the name General Wei from some places, they don’t necessarily know who this person is!”
Everyone on the stage had different expressions, but Wang Ling became more and more panicked, because he knew that what Lu Su said might be true, and the scholars and people in the Central Plains really would not be grateful to Gongsun Xun. In fact, he could look back and see this
I just met Jiang Gan, who was born in Huainan, and asked for help, but I found that the other person kept his head down and said nothing, as if he had some scruples in his heart.
In other words, Jiang Gan, who was born in Huainan, probably knew in his heart that Lu Su was telling the truth.
Not only that, but Wang Can, who came out before, was very angry but also a little anxious...Wang Can, who had been raised by Aunt Gongsun for several years after losing his father, originally wanted to say something about epidemic prevention and enlightenment.
Ah, things like the system, but Lu Su firmly focused on the huge "benefit" of "being able to survive" from the perspective of the lower class people. For a while, it was really hard for him to refute.
In fact, not only Wang Can, but also many characters on the stage were thoughtful at this time, because in a sense, in troubled times, the sky and the earth are indeed huge, not as big as a 'living person'...
No matter how good you are at fighting or killing people, you can't compare to those who can live... You can't say that living people are not as good as killing people. What does that mean?
And if we talk about it this way, Liu Bei and Cao Cao do have deep roots in the Central Plains and have won the hearts of the people, and Gongsun Xun is indeed not worth mentioning. The latter can also live, but he lives in Hebei, Sanfu and Jiuzhou. This point
Lu Su did not deny it.
"I believe that everything the envoy said is honest." Just as the general fell into the trap for a moment on the stage, on the other side of Wang Ling, the handsome Sima Yi suddenly stepped forward and said something shocking. "To the people of the Central Plains,
, only Cao Fenwu, Liu Yuzhou is the hero of the world, and General Wei is not worth mentioning... But because the soldiers and people below are in chaos, they can only judge it based on their personal senses. People like the envoy who compare themselves to Deng Yu also adhere to this petty path.
Isn’t it ridiculous to not be able to see clearly the overall situation of Huanghuang?”
Lu Su was speechless... He wanted to say that he had never compared himself to 'Deng Yu', but at this moment Gongsun Xun was pretending to watch the sunset by his side, so it would be boring to refute this.
As a result, his expression did not change, and he did not ignore the other party because he had not yet been crowned. Instead, he slightly cupped his hand and asked for advice: "Please give me some advice from the No. 1 Hebei Ming Jing."
Sima Yi laughed and replied: "Actually, how can a mere boy with tied hair dare to mention the heroes of Huainan? There is just one question stuck in my throat. If I don't ask it, I will feel depressed, and the good mood of having the honor to go on stage today will be gone. But if I ask it, I will be in a bad mood.
I am afraid that I will embarrass the envoy and ruin his good mood today."
"It doesn't matter." Lu Su quickly shook his head, feeling increasingly speechless... Now that he is a messenger in this situation, do he expect to be as happy as visiting relatives?
"Excuse me, envoy." Seeing this, Sima Yi suddenly raised his hands to face each other seriously. "What you said is the truth... However, Liu Yuzhou was able to show kindness to the people of Huainan, wasn't it precisely because of General Wei's kindness to him? If there was no Wei,
General, what can Liu Yuzhou do for Liu Yuzhou? To the common people, those who survive him are considered great heroes. Then I dare to ask, who is General Wei, who made Liu Yuzhou the hero he is today?
?!Liu Yuzhou knows that he must call me his brother in words and be better than my brother in deeds. Why did General Wei show no kindness to Huainan when he came to the envoy?"
Lu Su suddenly paused.
"That's right!" Wang Ling on the side also came to his senses. "The envoy is really sophistry! If General Wei didn't succeed in challenging Dong Gong, how could Liu Yuzhou and Cao Fenwu calmly separatize the place? If General Wei didn't give him official positions and titles, how could Liu Yuzhou be able to do so?
What happened in the Central Plains? If there is no general Wei to defeat Yuan Shao, how can the Central Plains calmly attack Yuan Shu?" Wang Ling asked repeatedly, and by the end he could not hide his contempt. "He is known as the hero of Huainan. Compared with Deng Yu, he only sees Huainan, the Central Plains, and Hebei.
, Sanfu, don’t you understand that these are all part of the world? Is Deng Yu a narrow-minded person who only has Nanyang in his eyes?”
Just when Lu Sugu was about to argue again, Wang Can over there also reacted and immediately stepped forward and asked: "This is exactly why the envoy keeps saying that the Central Plains, the Central Plains, Huainan and Huainan are just local gestures. They are alienated from morality. The so-called local
It’s just self-interest and treating the world as nothing... If you use this to criticize General Zang, aren’t you afraid of being ridiculed by the world?”
"Actually, the two princes don't have to be so indignant." Sima Yi suddenly laughed again. "Didn't you hear it just now? This Huainan Deng Yu rarely had great ambitions. At that time, he marked his land and sold his house to divide his wealth and make friends. He was very ambitious.
, intends for great things... How can such an outstanding person not know the difference between the world and the central divisions? How can he be narrow-minded? He clearly feels that the world is in chaos, and at the right time, a hero like him can do it for himself
His ambitions will divide the world..." At this point, Sima Yi turned sideways and bowed to the people behind him, then pointed his finger at him and sneered unbearably. "In other words, this person who wants to divide the world is Liu Yuzhou who works for Guangwu, and he works for Deng
The world under the throne of Yu. As for those of us from Hebei and Sanfu, even if we follow General Wei in troubled times and try our best to maintain the situation and appease the world, how can they appreciate it?"
Although Lu Su was a scholar at home and a scholar at the outside, he could no longer endure it anymore. He finally changed his face and shouted sternly: "The world belongs to the Han Dynasty! If Liu Yuzhou can't do it, can General Wei do it? I'm here!"
Stopping at Liu Yuzhou and ignoring General Wei is narrow-minded and ambitious. What does it mean for you to stop at General Wei and ignore the Emperor of Chang'an? As a county magistrate, you are of course a seventh-grade official, but you still wear a thousand stones.
Do you want to seal the ribbon to show that you are a Han official?"
Sima Yi froze in place. He couldn't continue to point with his hand, but he didn't dare to put it back easily. Instead, he, Wang Ling and Wang Can couldn't help but sweat on their backs... The three of them were young after all, and they only cared about verbal disputes.
Forget that in the end, talking about this kind of topic will sooner or later lead to this huge dispute and taboo!
However, General Wei himself was still leaning on the railing, overlooking the long stretches of Zhangshui River!
For a moment, as all the ministers on the stage turned to Gongsun Xun, Lu Su also felt embarrassed... In the end, it was he who finally moved out the emperor who was at a loss for words, and as an envoy of one party, he was followed by a county magistrate and
Two boys with tied hair are arguing like this, even if the other party is at a loss for words, then what is there to praise?
What's more, General Wei is still by his side.
The sunset came to an end, and Gongsun Xun, who had been watching the scenery with his hands behind his back for some time, turned a deaf ear to what was happening behind him, and quietly watched the sunset over the Zhang River without saying a word.
After a long time, as the setting sun in early autumn jumped slightly, only a cloud of clouds remained in the last visible sun.
"The setting clouds and solitary swans fly together, the autumn water is the same color as the sky, the fishing boats sing late, ringing on the shore of Qianzhang River; the array of wild geese startles the warmth, and the sound breaks the copper bird pond." Gongsun Xun suddenly opened his mouth and chanted slowly, but it made people laugh.
Everyone on the Bronze Bird Stage was moved. "I gaze at the sky in the middle of the sky, and enjoy traveling in my spare time. The sky is high and the sky is high, and I feel the infinity of the universe. When joy and sorrow come, I know that there are many ups and downs. I hope Chang'an will be safe under the sun,
The river and the Luo River are among the clouds. The terrain is extreme but the southern sea is deep. Taihang is high and Beichen is far away. The mountains are difficult to cross. Who feels sorry for those who have lost their way? If we meet by chance, we are all guests from a foreign land..."
When he reached this point, Gongsun Xun suddenly turned around and said, "Gentlemen, are these sentences good?"
"Excellent!" Most people were still stunned, but Wang Can blurted out. "It's a masterpiece! It can be polished a little and become a masterpiece!"
"Excellent in terms of literature." Gongsun Xun looked at Wang Can and nodded slowly. "But I am a general, what is the use of having such good words passed down to the world? There is another article..."
Everyone was startled.
"If the rain is falling and the moon is not open, the wind is howling and the turbid waves are emptying; the sun and stars are dimming, and the mountains are invisible; business travel is blocked, and the rafters are toppling and destroyed; the dusk is dark, and the tigers are roaring and the apes are croaking. When you climb up to this platform,
Then there are those who go to their country and miss their hometown, worried about slander and fear of ridicule, with eyes full of desolation, feeling extremely sad." Gongsun Xun blurted out, as if he was not composing, but reciting. "As if spring and the scenery are bright, the waves are calm, the sky above and below,
A vast expanse of green; sand gulls gather in the sky, brocade scales swim; the shore is covered with orchids, lush and green. Or there is a long smoke in the sky, a bright moon thousands of miles away, floating light leaps into gold, silent shadows sink into the jade, and fishermen answer each other's songs. What a joy it is! Climb here.
In Taiwan, there are those who are relaxed and happy, who forget favors and disgrace together, who hold wine in the wind and are overjoyed."
"It is also a wonderful article!" Wang Can said sincerely. "But it is indeed a little inferior to the previous words of "The falling clouds and the solitary swans flying together..."
"It's not over yet." Gongsun Xun turned his back to the afterglow of the setting sun and looked at the many important ministers and talents in front of him, his face expressionless. "Sigh! I have tried to seek the heart of the benevolent people in ancient times, or to be different from the two, why?
Why? Don’t be happy with things, and don’t be sad with yourself. If you live high in the temple, you will worry about the people; if you live far away from the rivers and lakes, you will worry about the king. If you advance, you will also worry, and if you retreat, you will also worry. But when will you be happy? He must say, "First"
I am worried when the world is worried, and I am happy when the world is happy. Alas! Weisi people, who am I to return to?"
There was a strong wind on the stage, and the sounds of farmers, craftsmen, and business travelers hurriedly returning home could be heard in the distance, but there was a sense of silence that could be heard even if a pin dropped... This is because many people on the stage were here.
It was silent all the time, but also full of energy.
"Everyone." Gongsun Xun said with his hands folded. "I did not write these two articles... I just heard them from my mother. The former is beautiful in diction, it can be said to be the ultimate. If you read it and read it, you will know what it means.
Literature; and the latter may be a little hollow in its description of the scenery, but as soon as "worry about the world's worries first, and rejoice after the world's happiness" comes out, who cares about the world will not be shocked by it? Zijing!"
"I'm here...I'm ashamed!" Lu Su quickly leaned over to greet him.
"You should be ashamed, but you are ashamed in the wrong place." Gongsun Xun stepped forward and said. "There are also Yanyun, Acan, and Ayi. The four of you are talking about the world in Huainan and the Central Plains, but you don't know anything at all.
It’s the world…it’s just moving around in the realm of the country! And the country and the world are not the same thing at all!”
"Please give me some advice, general!" Sima Yi couldn't help but feel excited when he heard that the other party called him 'Ayi' and was treated the same as Wang Can, who was raised in General Wei's mansion.
"What is the country? The country is the hegemony of one family and one surname. It is the ruler and ministers, the law, the army, the household registration, and the territory. What is the world? It is the general name for everything in the world. It is the inheritance of China, the laws of civilization, the people, everything, and the folk customs.
People's hearts are more than that." At this point, Gongsun Xun's speech became even slower. "It is precisely because of this that there is talk of subjugating the country to protect the country, and there is talk of subjugating the world to protect the world... The so-called subjugation of the country means changing one's surname and name.
, the replacement of the old with the new is just like the Han Dynasty replaced the Qin; the destruction of the world means that the order of the world has collapsed, and moral laws are useless. As for leading beasts to eat people, it is just like when the Ling Emperor came to Dong Zhuo, this was the situation. And protecting the country is
He received the favor of one person of the same surname and held power, so he planned it; to protect the world... Don't say protect the world, just one sentence, even an ordinary man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world! Zijing!"
Lu Su took a long breath, quickly passed by Chen Deng, who was already fascinated, and leaned over to say: "I am here!"
"Do you think I, Gongsun Xun, am protecting the country or the world?" Gongsun Xun responded solemnly, but before waiting for a reply, he looked at Wang Ling and the others. "Yan Yun, A Can, A Yi!"
"I'm here!"
"Students are here!"
"The boy is here!"
"You only see Xuande and Mengde as people fighting against me for the country, but have you ever thought that these two are also comrades who work with me to protect the world?" The light of the setting sun faded, and Gongsun Xun spoke like a knife. "I know.
, In the past few years, the world has become more peaceful, and there are always people who think that I have lost my spirit and am obsessed with peace and tranquility, forgetting to make progress. But have you ever thought that between me and Cao Liu of the Central Plains, there has never been a day when I was not working together to make progress.
What about the world? Among the people of Weisi, who can I return to?"
"I'm ashamed!" Wang Ling took the lead and leaned down.
"No need to be ashamed." Gongsun Xun nodded slightly and sighed. "Protecting the world and protecting the country are not incompatible, and striving for hegemony is not an unknown and despicable thing. Only you young people want to make contributions, but in your heart
You must understand this truth... The messenger has come from afar, let's hold a fire and have a feast!"
Only then did everyone come back to their senses, and at the same time they all had their own concerns and at the same time walked together and saluted each other.
After the dinner, everyone stayed in a temporary place under the Tongque Terrace, and then returned to Yecheng in great force the next day.
When Gongsun Xun returned to the city, before he could formally receive Lu Su and inquire about official matters, he suddenly received a message in his mansion, which was sent by Xi Zhong himself.
"Huangfu Song...please resign as a disciple and come to Yecheng to teach military science?" Gongsun Xun sat behind the case thoughtfully. "Have you noticed this?"
"Not necessarily aware, but alert, right?" The actor asked calmly and answered. "After all, he is a veteran for many years. He sees a lot and thinks a lot."
"Where is Liu Yu?" Gongsun Xun asked again.
"There is no movement from the Taiwei." Xi Zhicai answered quickly. "It's just a good thing. But even if it's a good thing, he has joined forces with the Three Gongs and Nine Qings for the fourth time to urge the general to go to Chang'an to discuss important matters after the emperor ties up his hair."
"It can't be avoided." Gongsun Xun shook his head and smiled. "Just like when Xuande asked Lu Zijing to test Hebei's attitude, he probably also understood in his heart that some things cannot be avoided."
Xi Zhong wanted to speak but stopped.
"Zhicai doesn't have to be so pretentious, I know..." Gongsun Xun smiled with more emotion. "Now that we have come to this point, there are always things we have to do, and we will never be merciful. It's just that I said some big words yesterday, so I can't help but
I sigh, why do so many people still risk everything just for some old favors, even though they know it in their hearts?"
"That's not what I meant." Xi Zhong sighed. "I just feel that although Junhou's words yesterday were shocking, it was a little too early... If you ask me, some people are too deeply involved, so it's better to let them pay for the so-called old favor.
Go and be buried with him! Your Majesty is too kind."
Gongsun Xun was silent for a moment, but he regained his composure when he spoke again: "Well, if Huangfu Song wants to come to Yecheng, just let him come. Since Chang'an has invited so many times, let's leave Lu Su this time.
That’s what happened.”
The actor leaned down and said nothing.
I am the dividing line that does not speak
"Now that Xun had captured Langya, the most beautiful place in the whole Central Plains, Liu Bei was frightened and sent Lu Su from the east city to greet Yecheng. When he arrived, Xun saw him at the Tongque Tower. Su argued with the other students about the great righteousness and couldn't stop arguing. It was the sunset in early autumn.
Xun Nai leaned on the railing and sighed: "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. The king is righteous, not only for the world, but also for the people here?" Su Nai is ashamed." "Heroes of the Late Han Dynasty". Wang Can
