"No need, the old man can handle it himself, and I don't think these officers and soldiers dare to do anything to the old man, so Liu Xiangongzi's kindness is understood." Zheng Xuan heard Liu Xian say that he could help him solve his troubles, but he refused Liu Xian's kindness without the slightest hesitation.

Zheng Xuan is a great Confucian in the world, and he has a sense of arrogance, and he easily doesn't want to owe favors to others. What's more, he has indeed heard of Liu Xian's name, and it has nothing to do with Liu Xian, so he doesn't want to be favored by others for no reason.

Liu Xian didn't think it was strange, because he had dealt with Cai Yong, Kong Rong and Tian Feng, who were also famous people in the world, and they all knew that these literati had their own personalities, and they would not easily be favored by others.

is like Tian Feng, in order to relieve the people, he owes a lot of debts, if Liu Xian directly proposed to let Tian Feng do things for himself and pay off the debts himself, then Tian Feng would definitely not agree. In order to get Tian Feng for his own use, Liu Xian did spend a lot of brains at that time.

Therefore, now Liu Xian was unimpressed by Zheng Xuan's refusal, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Mr. Zheng is polite." In this way, I saw that Mr. Zheng was living in seclusion at home, concentrating on his studies on the one hand, and recruiting disciples to teach his studies on the other hand. It just so happened that I had set up Liufu College in Yangshi County and Liulin Village, but there was a lack of truly learned people to teach the students of Guangzhou, so I wonder if Mr. Zheng could move to Liulin Village? Become a gentleman from Liufu College? ”

"Oh? Liufu College? What college do you open? This one...... You ......" Zheng Xuan was a little surprised, I wanted to say that you are just a kid, why do you dare to open an academy?

This, in this Han era, it is really not possible for ordinary people to open an academy casually. Basically, in the local area, there are no officially opened colleges, only the imperial court has opened Taixue schools. And the local colleges are generally only opened by some real celebrities in the world.

For example, Yingchuan College was opened by Mr. Shui Jing. There is also Xiangyang College and so on.

Like Zheng Xuan, he recruited disciples to impart knowledge in his own home, but he did not publicly call it an academy, at most it was regarded as a private school. Another example is Lu Zhi, who teaches his disciples knowledge at home, which can also be regarded as a private school.

However, whether it is a private school opened by a local celebrity or some of the more famous colleges, the number of disciples recruited is basically limited, and it is not open to all the people. If anyone wants to enroll, they have to prepare for the apprenticeship and ask their permission before they can be accepted as a disciple.

Seriously, there are really a lot of people who are too stupid, and these gentlemen can't be recruited as disciples.

In addition, many gentlemen do want to earn money by recruiting disciples. If you want to learn from a teacher, you have to spend a lot of money.

Anyway, for various reasons, it is difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to read and write.

Although Liu Xian has some fame, Liu Xian, a kid who has no talent or fame, strictly speaking, is not qualified to open an academy in the eyes of these real contemporary Confucians and celebrities in the world.

However, Liu Xian was also aware of Zheng Xuan's surprise, because Cai Yong and Tian Feng had already talked to him.

Of course, Liu Xian naturally doesn't care, to be honest, it is imperative to open an academy, even if there is no Cai Yong and Tian Feng, he will also open it, as for whether he is qualified or something in the eyes of the world, or will be attacked by some literati and celebrities, Liu Xian doesn't care. Anyway, within the territory of their own power, what they want to do is not their own business? If others talk about it or even oppose it, thinking that they are not qualified or anything, let them go, because they can't help themselves.

It's just that now with Cai Yong as the dean of this academy and Tian Feng as the assistant, Liu Xian, the Liu Mansion Academy, can be opened with a proper name, and no one has anything to say.

Now, Liu Xian will naturally bring up the names of Cai Yong and Tian Feng.

Liu Xian said to Zheng Xuan: "Mr. Zheng doesn't know, Lord Cai Yong wants his own Liulin Village at this time, and he will serve as the dean of Liufu Academy, and Mr. Tian Feng will preside over the affairs of the academy together. Mr. Zheng and Mr. Cai Yong are both great Confucians, scholars, I believe that there will be a lot of academic exchanges between you to enhance each other, if Mr. Zheng is willing to move forward, then Mr. Zheng is the vice president of Liufu College. ”

Cai Yong is indeed about the same age as Zheng Xuan, only a few years younger than Zheng Xuan, but Liu Xian said that they are contemporary Confucians, and they are indeed so.

"Cai Yong, Cai Bo? He...... How could he be in your Liulin Village? The old man has admired him for a long time, but he has never had the opportunity to see him. However, I heard that his situation is not good......"

Zheng Xuan is indeed not a person who ignores things outside the window, but he really doesn't want to be with his relatives and eunuchs, and he doesn't want to be friends with the traitors of the Manchu Dynasty, so he would rather die than become an official.

The literati of this era are indeed still relatively stylish, and they will not bend their waists for five buckets of rice.

"Lord Cai Yong is not liked today, and he is hated by some traitors, and often intends to persecute Lord Cai. Lord Cai has avoided Jiangdong, but he was still found, and Cai had to go north to avoid trouble, and he happened to meet his father-in-law Kong Rong, who was dissatisfied with the traitors in the DPRK and China and resigned and returned home, and went to the plain palace as a guest together. When I heard about Lord Cai's situation, I was deeply resentful, so I invited Lord Cai's family to my Liulin Village. Liu Xian saw that Zheng Xuan was interested in Cai Yong, so he told him how Cai Yong arrived in his Liulin Village.

"I see, then, aren't you worried about bringing disaster because of Lord Cai Yong? You must know that it is not ordinary people who want to harm Lord Cai, but the powerful people in the court. Zheng Xuan looked at Liu Xiandao curiously.

For Zheng Xuan, the imperial power is greater than the sky, and even if he has the arrogance of a literati, he hates the traitors and magnates in today's court, and disdains to be with them. But in his bones, he is actually similar to Cai Yong, and he is actually loyal to the Han royal family. He is very strange, Cai Yong has offended the current emperor's courtiers, and the people who were exiled by the emperor's order, Liu Xian actually dared to take him in, isn't he afraid of sin?

Zheng Xuan also knew that Liu Xian was the righteous son of the Ma nobles of the Plains Palace, but he also clearly understood that the influence of the Plains Mansion was too slight compared to the current imperial court. If the imperial court wants to ask Liu Xian to blame, then even the nobles of the Plains Mansion have no way to protect it.

He wanted to know how Liu Xian could keep Cai Yong.

Liu Xian also knows all of this.

Liu Xian knew that in front of these great Confucian celebrities, he could not easily show his ambitions, there were some things that could be done, but he could not say them explicitly.

Therefore, Liu Xian thought for a while and said to Zheng Xuan: "Mr. Zheng, I believe you also know what kind of big man is today. Don't say anything, just say that last year, the Yellow Turban riot has made the people of the world miserable. The traitor of the court didn't say anything, after all, it was far away from us, and we couldn't care about it. But there is chaos in this world, at least now thieves are everywhere in the Han Dynasty, and we and other local people, when the officers and soldiers of the imperial court fail to protect us, should we have a certain ability to protect ourselves? We can't let those robbers put knives on our necks, we can't resist them, can we? ”

"In addition, I am not an ordinary Han people, I am a member of the Han family. As a clan member of the Han family, he has ancestral teachings, supports the Han family, and revitalizes the Han Dynasty. When the imperial court is unable to take care of the local people, then as a child of the Han family, then it has the obligation and right to stand up and help the people in fire and water, and protect the people. ”

"The people of Liulin Village and Yangshi County tried their best to keep them alive. Naturally, they will no longer be caught in the middle of fire and water. Therefore, I have built a city in Liulin Village, the purpose of which is to let the people there have a relatively safe place to live and a place to live. ”

"For the sake of the people's work, I established the Liufu Caravan and established the Liufu Caravan Escort. This Liufu caravan escort is the safety guarantee of the Liufu caravan merchants, and at the same time, it is also the force that guards the safety of the people in Liulin Village, Yangshi County and other places. If there are thieves coming, our caravan escort will defend them desperately. ”

"And a famous person like Lord Cai Yong is an old courtier who is loyal to the Han Dynasty and should not be treated unfairly. The Han world is so big, isn't there a place for Lord Cai? Can't there be a square inch of space where a quiet desk can be placed for Master Cai to study and impart knowledge to students? I will contact the DPRK and China through the righteous lady Ma Guiren to explain the reason to the present, after all, the imprisoning party members have also been lifted back then, so can Lord Cai also be pardoned from exile? I believe that I will be sympathetic to the situation today, and I will soon express it. ”

"Master Cai is in Liufu College, imparting knowledge to students, this is also to cultivate talents for the Han Dynasty and cultivate the pillars of the country, what is the crime? Therefore, I don't have to worry about being implicated and convicted at all. ”

"Of course, to the extreme, if the imperial court is really indiscriminate, and has to send someone to arrest Lord Cai, or even ask me for the crime, then I would rather die than go to Beijing to present my case, and I will definitely not let Lord Cai suffer any grievances."

"What's more, my Liu Mansion caravan guards can defeat tens of thousands of Yellow Turban Army, if it is an ordinary traitor who wants to come and murder. Then I have to ask my Liu Mansion caravan guards if they agree. ”

Liu Xian generously stated, and only in the end did he faintly reveal that he would not give in to any traitor.

Who is the traitor? It is a relative eunuch and some powerful people in the court.

He Jin is a relative and a traitor.

Who will murder Cai Yong? Under normal circumstances, the emperor would not order the execution of those celebrities for no reason. At best, exile. Then the ones who really want to murder Zhongliang are naturally those traitors. And Liu Xian showed that he was not afraid of those traitors, and he had the ability and strength to protect himself.

Self-protection is the most important thing, Liu Xian had already explained it to Zheng Xuan at the beginning. Traitors must not be allowed to put a knife on their neck.

The subtext in this is equivalent to explaining to Zheng Xuan that even if he is Jin, he can't help himself.

After Zheng Xuan heard this, he nodded silently and said, "This time, He Jin, the general of the Han Dynasty, sent someone to coerce me to enter Beijing as an official. If Zheng arrives in your Liulin Village, then it is equivalent to you Liu Cheng offending General He Jin. You must know that General He Jin is in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, and he wants to be angry with you, can you deal with it? ”

Zheng Xuan still explained.

"The Han court is the Han court, the emperor is the emperor, and He Jin is He Jin. Now it is He Jin who recruits Mr. Zheng into Beijing, not by the emperor's holy decree. In this way, Mr. Zheng went to stay naturally as he wished. It does not violate any of the laws of the Han Dynasty. I invited Mr. Zheng to Liulin Village, so what is the crime? Everything has to be done with a reason. It is impossible for He Jin to privately send troops to kill him because he invited Mr. Zheng, right? If this is the case, how can my Liu Mansion caravan guards be vegetarians? Liu Xian said a little toughly.

"What if the court decrees?" Zheng Xuan asked again.

"If you are holy today, how can you casually make such a holy decree?" Liu Xian asked rhetorically.

"Hehe, Liu Xiangongzi is really a wonderful person. Alas, it seems that the old man's days of plowing here have come to an end. Since Liu Xiangongzi is not afraid of any involvement and crime, the old man also wants to visit Lord Cai Yong, okay, then follow Liu Xiangongzi to Liulin Village and see and see. Zheng Xuan smiled, then pointed outside and said, "Then how will Liu Xiangongzi send the officers and soldiers outside now?" ”

"It's a trivial matter, Mr. Zheng can clean up first, arrange the family affairs, and let's leave together tomorrow." Liu Xian naturally didn't take the officers and soldiers outside to heart.

Now he has 300 men and horses, and Wang Yue is following, only 500 officers and soldiers, and it is really a matter of minutes to settle them.

"Okay, then please ask Liu Xiangongzi to rest in the cold house tonight, wait for the old man to explain some affairs, and then set off together tomorrow."

Zheng Xuan said, and introduced the humanity behind him to Liu Xian: "Liu Xian's son, this is a dog, Zheng Zheng Zheng Yien." ”

"It turned out to be Zheng Gongzi, disrespectful and disrespectful." Liu Xianzheng noticed this young man, and he also had some guesses in his heart, thinking that it should be Zheng Xuan's relative, and it was indeed his son.

"Zheng Zheng has seen Liu Xiangongzi, the name of Liu Xiangongzi, Zheng has already heard of it, and I deeply admire Liu Xiangongzi in my heart for what you have done." Zheng Zheng clasped his fists and saluted.

"Zheng Gongzi has won the award."

Zheng Xuan said again at this time: "They are Zheng Ming, Ge Fei, He Zhuang, and Zhou Qi. Zheng Ming is from the old man's own clan, and the other three are the old man's disciples. ”

"Liu Xian has seen a few brothers, please forgive me for the rudeness."

Liu Xian saluted these few fists one by one.

They also hurriedly said that they did not dare.

Zheng Zheng is about 20 years old, and the others are between 20 and 30 years old.

"Zheng'er, you take Liu Xiangongzi and them to settle down, and let's eat together for a while. I'll start with a few things. Zheng Xuan said at this time.

"Mr. Zheng doesn't need to be polite, I still have two or three hundred caravan guards outside, so let them camp outside tonight."

"It's okay, but Liu Xiangongzi, you should spend the night in the cold house."

"Yes, then bother."
