Fifty-five, Black Headed Man (Part 2) (This chapter is free)
"Shishuo Xinyu" records that Wang Huizhi joined Huan Chong's cavalry as a cavalry general. When Huan Chong saw that Wang Huizhi was doing nothing all day, he reminded him: "You have been in the government for a long time, so you should take care of your duties." Wang Huizhi did not answer, and rolled his eyes.
Looking at the sky, he put his hand on his cheek and said leisurely: "I feel refreshed when I come from the west mountain." Huan Chong asked him: "Where is your office?" He replied: "I don't know where I am. I saw a horse coming, and it looked like a horse.
Cao.”——
Not even knowing what his responsibilities were, Huan Chong was helpless and asked again: "How many horses does the official have?" He replied: "If you don't ask about the horses, how can you know their number?" He also asked: "How many horses have died recently?" Answer
Said: "If you don't know life, how can you know death?"
Such a staff could only appear in the Wei and Jin Dynasties where elegance was important. In any era, they would be a piece of shit who deserved a beating and did not know how to die.
Of course Xie Xuan and Chen Caozhi were not as laid-back as Wang Huizhi. Huan Wen called them into the government every day to discuss matters. He valued both of them very much and said: "Xie Xuan will support the Zhanzhi Festival when he is forty, and Chen Xie will be treated as a black-headed prince."
, None of them have changed their talents." That is to say, Xie Xuan can become a general in charge of conquests at the age of forty, while Chen Caozhi can rank among the three princes before his hair turns gray.
Chen Caozhi understood in his heart that although Huan Wen compared him with Xie Xuan, there was actually an implicit meaning.
He was already the commander-in-chief of the Beifu Army at the age of forty, and he, Chen Caozhi, was a self-made man. If he wanted to be ranked among the Three Dukes before his hair turned gray, there was no other way except for the change of dynasty and Huan Wen becoming emperor.
