On the way from Hongnong County to Nanyang County, Han Cheng and Emperor Han Xian drank tea all the way, and also chatted all the way.

Chatting is the easiest way to get to know a person, especially if it's chatting continuously for a long time.

Through chatting, Emperor Han Xian found that Han Cheng was not the same as he imagined.

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty believed that as the young lord of a state, he should at least be dignified, have a good appearance, and be full of the scholarly spirit that only the children of the family have, or the air of aristocrats.

And this Han Cheng is not only not like this, but does what he wants, is not bound by etiquette, and is a typical outlier.

And this outlier is very different from other outliers, as if it is incompatible with this world, but it seems to understand the rules of this world deeply.

Han Cheng's whole person is full of mystery and unpredictable.

Through chatting, Han Cheng discovered the advantages of Emperor Han Xian: he is really 'cultured'.

But it is only limited to this level of 'culture', not the next level of 'culture' - talent.

Being literate means that you read a lot of books and have a rich knowledge reserve; Talent means being able to give full play to what you have learned and be able to apply what you have learned.

Han Cheng looked at Emperor Han Xian, who was nine years younger than him, and felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart: "Maybe you weren't born in this era, you will be a generation of Ming Jun." But you were born in this era, and it is destined to be a tragedy. ”

At this time, a soldier came to Emperor Han Xian's car and shouted loudly to Han Cheng in the car: "Zhou Mu, Changshi is back." ”

Han Cheng was talking to Emperor Han Xian about Li Dao's official position in the car, and when he heard the soldier's words, Han Cheng stopped talking, bowed to Emperor Han Xian briefly, didn't say anything, and turned around and left the car.

When Emperor Han Xian saw Han Cheng's approach, he felt helpless in his heart: I am a dignified son of heaven, and I can't compare to the long history of a general's mansion? Li Dao, who doesn't understand the rules, is like this, and so is the 'alien' Han Cheng. Is my world really going to end?

But thinking about it carefully, there are still differences between Han Cheng and Li Dao's approach, Han Cheng is slightly more polite than Li Dao.

Han Cheng, who got out of the car, saw Fu Zhi coming towards him, and said loudly: "This journey has been hard and long. ”

When he saw Han Cheng come out of Emperor Han Xian's car to greet him, he looked terrified.

Then he looked flattered, and said to Han Cheng: "Lord, what happened on the road, just find a time to report on the matter, don't worry."

How can you get out of Emperor Hanxian's car? It was a summons from the Son of Heaven, but it was a big thing, and the lord lost a lot of money this time......"

Han Cheng listened to the frustrated chatter, and said in his heart: "Alas, even the frustrated professor who has followed him for so long has so much respect for the Son of Heaven, it seems that his road to becoming an emperor is still very long." ”

But he said solemnly to Fu Zhu: "No matter how noble the identity of the Son of Heaven is, in my heart it is not as good as the brothers who were born and died for me. For the sake of this group of brothers, I can also give up the Son of Heaven. ”

Listening to Han Cheng's words, he looked anxious.

With his eyes, he constantly scanned back and forth between Han Cheng and Emperor Han Xian's cars, as if to tell Han Cheng: "The lord is cautious, the Son of Heaven is still in the car." ”

Han Cheng saw the frustration in his eyes, understood the meaning of the frustration, and said in his heart: "I just said it to the Son of Heaven." ”

Seeing that he was so anxious, he was overjoyed, what a long history of thinking about himself everywhere.

He asked in a serious manner, "Changshi, how is the situation going this time?" ”

Seeing that Han Cheng was asking about the matter, he was afraid that Han Cheng was talking nonsense, so he hurriedly replied: "Lord, Li Dao has already led an army of 30,000 into Luoyang. At our current speed, it is estimated that we will not see the Xiliang Army before we reach Yingchuan County. ”

When Han Cheng heard this, he said, "Okay! Let the brothers go a little faster. Strive to arrive in Wancheng before dark, drink wine and eat meat. In a few days, we may have a big war. ”

......

In Sizhou, Yuzhou, Yanzhou and other Central Plains regions, there is a popular saying: "The world's talents come out of Yingchuan, and Yingchuan talents come out of Lumen." ”

The first half of this sentence is about the talents of the world, most of whom come from Yingchuan County.

Yingchuan County is the hometown of Dayu, and it is also the capital of the first dynasty in the history of our country - the Xia Dynasty.

The capital chosen by the first dynasty must be the best place, because no one fights, and good places can be picked at will.

In the following Qin and Han dynasties, Yingchuan County has always been a large county, and it is the most populous and prosperous place outside the capital Luoyang.

At the same time, Yingchuan County also has a profound cultural heritage, and the more famous families include the Xun family, the Guo family, the Zhong family, the Xu family, the Chen family, the Huang family, the Zhuge family, etc., which can be described as a large number of talents, countless.

In Yingchuan County, which is full of talents, when it comes to talent and learning, one place will definitely come to mind - Lumen Academy.

This is also the meaning of the second half of this sentence, which refers to the young talents of Yingchuan County, most of whom are from Lumen Academy.

Lumen Academy, in Lumen Mountain, is named after the mountain.

Its founders were the three great celebrities of the time - Pang Degong, Sima Hui and Huang Chengyan.

All three of them are knowledgeable, talented and indifferent to fame and fortune, because they are worried that what they have learned will be lost, so they teach at the Lumen Mountain Neutral Academy.

Pang Degong, a native of Xiangyang, Jingzhou, in addition to being knowledgeable, is also good at stroking the piano and stargazing, and Zhuge Liang's stargazing skills are deeply inherited.

Sima Hui, the word moral exercise, Yingchuan Yang Zhai people, in addition to being knowledgeable, Jingdao science, Qimen, the art of war, scriptures, there is "Mr. Water Mirror" said.

The last Huang Chengyan, in addition to being knowledgeable, is good at recognizing people, can know the world's major events, and is well-known in Jingzhou.

There are countless disciples under these three people, but the most famous are the four disciples - Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Guo Jia.

Among them, Guo Jia first defected to Yuan Shao in Jizhou, but because he was born in a poor family, he was not taken seriously, and on the way back to Yingchuan, he passed through Yanzhou and was recommended to Cao Cao by his former friend Xun Yu.

Cao Cao met Guo Jia and discussed the world's major affairs with him, and after the discussion, Cao Cao said to Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, your vision is so good, the person who can help me achieve great things is Guo Jia!" ”

Since then, Guo Jia has become Cao Cao's military advisor and offered advice for Cao Cao's Quartet.

As a result, the four great disciples became the three major disciples.

At this time, Xu Shu, one of the three major disciples, also wanted to find the master as soon as possible so that his talent could be displayed.

Because Xu Shu, like Guo Jia, was born in a poor family, unlike Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong.

Xu Shu has no family behind him to help him, so he can only rely on himself.

On this day, Sima Hui asked a boy beside him to call Xu Shu to his study.

Seeing Xu Shu coming, Sima Hui said softly: "Yuan Zhi is here." Here, have a cup of tea first, and guess what I asked you to do? ”

Xu Shu is Sima Hui's most proud disciple, and he has won the true inheritance of Sima Hui's Taoism and the art of war.

After hearing Sima Hui's question, Xu Shu said: "If the disciple's expectation is good, the master wants me to go down the mountain to find the master." As for the defectors, it is either Liu Bei from Xuzhou or Han Cheng from Bingzhou. ”

Sima Hui smiled slightly and said, "Yuan Zhi's brain is fast. Yes, the three of them really want you to go down the mountain to find the master.

And after some consideration, I think that your choice is either Liu Bei from Xuzhou or Han Cheng from Bingzhou. As for who to choose, you can make up your own mind. ”

After Xu Shu heard the words of his mentor Sima Hui, he kowtowed to Sima Hui and said to Sima Hui: "Master Xie's teachings over the years, when the disciple becomes famous, he will definitely come back to pick up the master and go down the mountain to enjoy the blessings." As for who to choose, the disciple already had an idea in his heart. ”

Sima Hui continued to say softly: "Heh, you don't have to go down the mountain to enjoy happiness, it's good on the mountain!" It seems that you have already intended to go down the mountain, if my expectations are good, you will definitely choose Liu Bei from Xuzhou. ”

Xu Shu sighed and said, "If a month ago, the disciple would indeed choose Liu Bei, but now, the disciple feels that Han Cheng from Bingzhou is the best candidate." ”

Sima Hui was shocked and asked, "Why did you change your mind in just one month?" ”

Xu Shu said in a slightly excited tone: "These two people were both masters of the Ming Dynasty at that time, but I think that Han Cheng is better than Liu Bei."

It is also a move to buy people's hearts, Liu Bei took advantage of Cao Cao's massacre of the people of Xuzhou and lost the hearts of the people, took advantage of the weakness, took Xuzhou, and made the people pay very low taxes, in order to gain a good reputation.

However, Han Cheng directly risked the disapproval of the world and distributed the land to the people, without making a big publicity, in order to gain a good reputation. But who is really good to the people, after five years, the people of the world will know. One takes advantage of others' danger and is hypocritical; One is for the benefit of the people, and it is sincere.

is also to maintain the dignity of the Han Dynasty, Han Cheng heard that Emperor Han Xian was in trouble, so he ordered all the soldiers and horses to come to Sizhou, and even did not hesitate to fight several battles with the Xiliang army; And Liu Bei has a reputation for being loyal to the royal family everywhere, but his actions are all self-reliant.

Although there is a geographical difference in this, Liu Bei didn't even dare to send a letter, isn't it for fear of offending Li Dao and others and losing the position of Xuzhou pastor?

In terms of treating the deceased, when Gongsun Zhan was angry and resentful in Youzhou, and everyone betrayed his relatives and left, Liu Bei was the first to publish a document to clear up the relationship with him, although he gained righteousness, but also saw his cold-bloodedness.

And Han Cheng, for the sake of the life of his master and martial artist Huang Zhong, gave up the strategic place - Huguan, and must be a person who values love and righteousness. Therefore, the two of them made a judgment. ”

After Sima Hui listened to Xu Shu's words, he was silent for a while and said, "Yuan Zhi, I won't say anything about your decision." But remember, no matter who you go to, if you fail, come back here. As long as you have a breath of air for the teacher, you will be guaranteed to be safe. ”

After listening to Sima Hui's words, Xu Shu burst into tears and said, "Master rest assured, the disciple has gone." ”
