Yingchuan Academy, in the small courtyard of the school, Xiao Lan tortured a group of students about the way to govern the country, and a group of students talked about it, although all the words were chiseled, but, in Xiao Lan's opinion, they all had great limitations.

"What? Generalissimo Xiao seems to be very dissatisfied with the statecraft of these disciples under me, the old man Sima Hui, but he listens to the advice. Seeing the disapproval on Xiao Lan's face, the old man couldn't help but speak in a deep voice, and between his words, there was already a little anger, after all, among the many students who spoke at the right time, several of them were more important to him, and the policy of governing the country was not perfect, but it could also be called the best choice.

Sima Hui - Mr. Shui Jing, a famous sage and Confucian in the Eastern Han Dynasty, although he had already guessed, Xiao Lan still stared at Sima Hui carefully again a few times, the old man in front of him, Eguan Bo belt, Yu Xuanang, pine-shaped crane bones, very good-looking, free look, such a calm and free expression, has to be admired.

"Huh." With a chuckle, Xiao Lan said indifferently: "You students are indeed highly talented, but unfortunately, they are just talking on paper, if you want to govern the country, you must first figure out why today's chaos came from." ”

A scholar said in a deep voice: "The reason for today's troubled times is nothing more than the fact that the eunuchs form a party, the emperor is young, so that the relatives are autocratic, there are many excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, coupled with natural disasters, so that the people are not happy!" ”

"What Wen Ruo said is very true, this is the cause of the chaos in the world, as long as the traitorous party is eliminated and His Majesty is pro-government, the world can naturally be cleaned up and peace can be restored." Many students agreed with the previous student's answer and nodded in agreement. Take a ferry to the Black Pavilion to see the new festival

Wen Ruo? Isn't that Xun Yu? Xiao Lan was slightly startled, raised his head and glanced at Xun Yu again, just as Xun Yu turned his head to see, the four eyes were facing each other, and the two came to eye each other.

Xun Yu, born in Yingchuan Xun, after Xunzi. His grandfather, Xun Shu, was well-known in the world and was known as the Divine Monarch. Xun Shu has eight sons, known as the Eight Dragons. Xun Yu's father Xun Qi once served as the minister of Jinan, and his uncle Xun Shuang served as Sikong. Xun Yu was afraid of the eunuchs, so he asked Xun Yu to marry the daughter of Tang Heng, who was often servant in the middle school. Because Xun Yu was famous when he was young, he was free from ridicule from others. Later, He Hao, a famous scholar in Nanyang, was surprised when he saw Xun Yu, and said: "Wang Zuozhi is also talented!" ”

In 189 AD, Xun Yu was promoted to filial piety and was appointed to guard the palace order. In September, Dong Zhuo abolished the young emperor Liu Wei and established the emperor Liu Xie. In November, Dong Zhuo regarded himself as the prime minister, praised and worshipped the nameless, did not enter the court, went to the palace with his sword, and Xun Yu abandoned the official and returned to his hometown.

This person later became Brother Cao's first adviser in the early stage, and was called 'my son's room' by Brother Cao, Guo Jia was able to serve Cao Cao, and it was also recommended by Xun Yu. This person has an amazing strategy and extraordinary tactics, and he once made a surprise plan for Cao Cao, and established the prestige of Cao Cao's northern overlord in one fell swoop.

The first plan, Cao Cao raised troops to crusade against Xuzhou, the rear was attacked by Lu Bu in chaos, Cao Cao insisted on going his own way, and decided to destroy Tao Qian first, and then kill Lu Bu, Xun Yu categorically opposed, and put forward the policy of 'deep roots to control the world', to avoid Cao Cao's dilemma of being surrounded by enemies. The second plan is to persuade Cao Cao to welcome the emperor and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, so that Cao Cao can take the initiative on the road to hegemony and reach the commanding heights of politics. The third plan, on the eve of Guandu, proposed 'four wins and four defeats' gave Cao Cao great confidence. Fourth, after the official crossing, Cao Cao decided to crusade against Liu Biao, and Xun Yu once again made a proposal to persuade Cao Cao to annihilate the remnants of Yuan Shao and unify the north. The fifth plan was to dispel Cao Cao's idea of restoring the ancient Kyushu system.

Xun Yu is not only not inferior to any strategist in terms of tactics, but what is even more rare is that Xun Yu's ability to recognize people is incomparable, and a large number of elite talents were recommended by him to Cao Cao, laying the foundation for Cao Cao's hegemony, including Xun You, Zhong Xuan, Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Du Xi, Xi Xi, Hua Xin, Wang Lang, Xun Yue, Xin Bi, these pillars of talent.

However, there is only one point, that is, this person is loyal to the Han family, and even Cao Cao wanted to face the south and turn his back to the north and call him the Ninth Five-Year Honor, but Xun Yu rejected it.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lan couldn't help but smile bitterly, this kind of character, even if he has the talent of Wang Zuo and the ability of the ovary, how can he be willing to serve the Taiping Army? Unless it's a daydream! It's just that even if he can't let him work for himself, Xiao Lan won't easily let him out of his control, otherwise, wouldn't he make enemies for the Taiping Army?

Seeing Xiao Lan sighing, Xun Yu was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but bow his head and think about it.

"I don't know Generalissimo Xiao, what do you think?" Seeing that everyone expressed their attitudes and agreed with what Xun Yu said, Sima Hui nodded slightly, very satisfied, and saw Xiao Lan looking at Xun Yu, his eyes rolled, and he threw the question to Xiao Lan.

"Huh?" With a deep groan, Xiao Lan's breath suddenly changed greatly, and in an instant, everyone only felt that the air temperature dropped suddenly, and an invisible pressure filled the surroundings, making people feel that it was difficult for their faces to breathe, until half a sound, Xiao Lan withdrew the terrifying breath on his body, and said indifferently: "Mr. Wen Ruo is right, eunuchs forming a party, the dictatorship of relatives, and harsh taxes are all the reasons for today's chaos, but if you say the root cause, it is still in the word 'earth'." ”

Xun Yu immediately arched his hand and said: "Please also ask Generalissimo Xiao to speak clearly." ”

Xiao Lan glanced around at everyone and said in a deep voice: "As the saying goes, the people take food as the sky, and what do the people live on is nothing more than farming and harvesting grain, but Ben Shuai wants to ask you, whose hands are the land in this world?" Without waiting for everyone to react, he pointed to a student in Chinese costume and asked, "How many fields does your family have?" ”

"This ......" hesitated for a moment, and the Chinese costume student responded: "3,000 acres of fertile land and 2,000 acres of thin field." But then he added: "This is all inherited from our ancestors, so what's wrong with it?" ”

"It seems that your ancestors are really powerful." Xiao Lan sneered, ignored him, and instead asked a thin and handsome young man with a somewhat pale face, "How many fields does your family have?" ”

"I'm afraid that my ancestors are incompetent, and there are only ten acres of thin fields at home." The young man who was questioned was obviously a poor student, not only in shabby clothes, but also with a hint of self-deprecation between his words.

"There are also ten acres of land, although it is a thin field, it is also a good mix." Xiao Lan said indifferently: "In the past, I was in Qingzhou, and I gathered no less than two million people, but they didn't even have half an acre? ”

A gleam flashed in the eyes of the young man from a cold family, and he said in surprise: "Then it seems that my ancestor is actually not completely incapable?" ”

The previous student in Chinese costume couldn't help but ask out loud: "Generalissimo Xiao, I don't know what you mean by this?" What does this turmoil have to do with how many fields our family has? ”

"What does it matter? Isn't it simple, what a fool! Xiao Lan glanced at him, his face full of sarcasm: "Don't ask where your ancestors got so many fields, how many fields can there be in this world, your family occupies 5,000 acres, ten, hundred, thousand, all the fields in this world are occupied by your families, what should the people do?" ”

"This ......" Xiao Lan's question stopped everyone at once, although most of them, the children of wealthy families, only know the wind and snow, dance and ink, and chant poetry, but in their family, every family, the number of fields is amazing, and the number of people who hire labor every year is not less than tens of thousands.

Xiao Lan said in a deep voice: "Ben Shuai knows that you have rented the land to the people to cultivate, if it weren't for this, just guarding the fields, you people would not be able to live the current life, but, do you know that the people cultivate one acre of land, hard work for a season, and can only collect less than three stone of grain, but two and a half stones have been taken away, and the remaining little is not even enough to make a living, and if you encounter any natural disasters, you can only sit and wait for death, and you, you don't have to do anything, just harvest ready-made, you can make you worry about food and clothing, But you wealthy families are not satisfied, and you will continue to expand the fields, you say, can the world not be chaotic? ”

Hearing this, the audience was suddenly silent, and the students from wealthy families were all stunned, and it was half a loud sound before Xun Yu retorted: "The imperial court has always paid taxes to one out of thirty, even if we add the rent we extract, it will never reach such an exaggerated level in your mouth!" ”

"Not bad!" Another student immediately echoed: "My family has thousands of tenants, and each household has always only taken one pound of grain per mu, where is it as terrifying as you said." ”

"Really?" Xiao Lan replied undeniably, "Even if you can guarantee that every mu of your family is really just a drop in grain, but, the question comes back, how did your family and your ancestors' land come from, in the final analysis, it is not still taken from the hands of the people." ”

Glancing at everyone coldly, Xiao Lan said categorically: "If you want me to say, the most fundamental reason for the chaos in the world is that the scholars annexed land and controlled the government, and you scholars are the real root cause of the chaos in the world!" (To be continued.) )
