Chapter 161: Maniac
"I don't want Luoyang to have a small population now, but there are a lot of things, and there is no such joy as Chang'an." Early in the morning, Chen Mo was invited by Li Ru to the government office, and complained with some dissatisfaction.
When he was in Chang'an, it was normal not to come to the government office for three or five days, but now it is not possible, just like when he first entered Chang'an, many things need to be decided by him, but compared to Chang'an at that time, many things in Luoyang Zhong Yun have been handled properly, and there are many fewer things, but in the beginning these days, Chen Mo still has to sit in the government office every day, and many celebrities in Luoyang need Chen Mo to meet them one by one, and these things alone are busy enough.
"Moving the capital is a major event, and to calm people's hearts, the lord should have been prepared." Li Ru said with a smile: "And today the Suiyang Imperial Court has sent an envoy, and he also needs to be received by the lord." ”
"Oh?" Chen Mo's eyes lit up: "Suiyang Imperial Court instead of Cao Cao?" ”
"Exactly!" Li Ru nodded and smiled.
Although it seems that they all come from the same place, the meaning is completely different, and the representative of the imperial court is Liu Xie.
"I wonder who it is?" Chen Mo asked as he walked.
"Plains Youheng, have you ever heard of it?" Li Ru asked with a smile.
"The madman who beat the drum and scolded Cao?" Chen Mo paused when he heard this, looked at Li Ru and said, "Are you sure it was sent by the imperial court, not by Cao Cao?" ”
For this madman, Chen Mo has long heard of it, the people under Cao Cao's account are said to be useless, Cao Cao is also scolded for being incomplete, Chen Mo doesn't feel that he is much more noble than Cao Cao, and he doesn't know the standard of this madman's judge, when he knew about it, Chen Mo still had some schadenfreude, but now that this madman came to his side, Chen Mo had a little headache, he could speak, and he thought he had some stomach, but it didn't mean that he had no temper.
"At least nominally, he was sent by the Suiyang Imperial Court." Li Ru nodded.
"Let's go, see you." Chen Mo didn't say anything more, and took Li Ru and Dian Wei straight to the government office, but the first person he saw was not You Heng, but Yang Xiu.
"Why did Dezu come here?" Chen Mo looked at Yang Xiu in surprise.
"I came here on the recommendation of the Lord." Yang Xiu said with a smile, after he followed Yang Biao to Luoyang, he took the opportunity to work as a staff member under Chen Mo's door, helping Chen Mo write copywriting and other things, and now they are all handed over to Yang Xiu to do.
"You're flat?" Chen Mo looked at Yang Xiu and asked with a smile.
"The lord already knows?" Yang Xiu looked at Chen Mo with a smile.
"Beating the drum and scolding Cao, it's hard to think about it." Chen Mo nodded, knelt on the throne and said with a smile: "But he is here on behalf of the imperial court, and you recommend me...... He's not going back? ”
"The lord doesn't know." Yang Xiu nodded and smiled: "Zhengping came this time, but he only brought the edict of the imperial court and the letter of Duke Cao, and he is not a messenger, and in terms of identity, he is still white." ”
"Since Dezu recommended me, I want to come to the literary extraordinary." Chen Mo smiled: "It's okay, I'm also curious about what this person is capable of, and I will see it." ”
"Whoa!" Yang Xiu smiled and nodded, said goodbye and left, and went to find someone, while Chen Mo picked up Cao Cao's letter and read it.
As for the edict of the imperial court, it is not that Chen Mo does not attach importance to it, but this kind of formal edict generally has no unusual content, most of it is to commend Chen Mo's contribution to quelling the Qiang chaos, and it is also a verbal commendation, most of which will not have any practical significance.
Cao Cao's letter is similar to a family letter, talking about trivial matters in his family, his son is disobedient, his mother-in-law will not care about the child, most of them are complaining, most of Cao Cao's private letters with Chen Mo will not take official business as an example, and occasionally recall the past youthful spirit...... For Chen Mo, it was a young spirit, and Cao Cao was not young at the beginning.
I don't know how long later, Yang Xiu brought a young scribe in, and saluted Chen Mo and said, "My lord, this is You Heng and You Zhengping, and you are an immortal talent. ”
The person who came saluted Chen Mo slightly, and the number of etiquette was enough, Chen Mo smiled and said: "I have heard the name of Mr. for a long time, and when I see it today, it is really a rare talent." ”
You Heng smiled and said: "I have heard for a long time that the Marquis of Changling is a hero in the world, and his literary and martial arts are unparalleled in the world, but now it seems that he is also a layman. ”
"Yes, Mr. Zhengping is really discerning." Chen Mo said with a smile: "Mo was born in the world, eating grains, and there will be birth, old age, sickness and death, and he is a layman. ”
You Heng raised his eyebrows, originally if Chen Mo refuted, he could cite a lot of classics to prove that Chen Mo was a layman, but now Chen Mo directly and generously admitted it...... What is the dignity of a hegemon!?
Yang Xiu squeezed to Xu Shu's side, sat upright, and looked at this scene with bright eyes, Chen Mo's eloquence he naturally knew, and You Heng was obviously also a good debater, he had been looking forward to this meeting for a long time.
Xu Shu glanced at Yang Xiu, who was inexplicably excited, suspiciously, shook his head, and continued to do his own thing, Jia Xu continued to drink, Li Ru buried his head in the case, he was the busiest, Xun You looked at this figure who scolded Cao Cao more than once with interest.
"I have heard for a long time that the Marquis of Changling is broad-minded, and today I see that it is really extraordinary." You Heng smiled.
seems to be praising Chen Mo, but in combination with the context, it can also be understood that Chen Mo does not have the temper that he should have as a human master.
"This flattery, sir, don't say it again." Chen Mo didn't seem to hear it, and shook his head with a smile.
"Marquis Changling thinks he is flattering below?" You Heng was a little helpless.
"Polite words are not flattering." Chen Mo shook his head: "It is said that Zhengping is sharp, but when I saw it today, this rumor is a bit excessive." ”
"I have heard for a long time that the Marquis of Changling has learned through the past and the present, and Heng has a lot of knowledge that is quite puzzled, can you ask the Marquis of Changling for advice?" You Heng asked.
"It's not enough to learn from the past and the present, and if Zhengping wants to discuss it, it's okay." Chen Mo shook his head and said with a smile as he wrote a reply to Cao Cao.
Well, the letters are basically complaining about Cao Cao's dissatisfaction with sending You Heng, Chen Mo is not really temperless, but he doesn't want to worry about this kind of person, if you care too much, it seems that you don't measure it, ignore him, you may become more and more arrogant, it will definitely not work to kill, Chen Mo's recruitment order has just been sent to various states and counties, and he will kill celebrities in a blink of an eye, what does this make the world think? Who would dare to vote?
So Chen Mo brewed his emotions in the reply to Cao Cao.
"The two articles of the Marquis of Changling are quite standard, and if you are not talented, you will ask for advice with one polemic." You Heng coughed lightly and began his own argument.
If you want to talk about learning, you Heng said that the words of the world's leaders are a bit excessive, but the talent is indeed extraordinary, and I heard that he also has the ability to never forget, and quoted the scriptures, and analyzed Chen Mo's early polemics and analyzed, and finally looked at Chen Mo and said: "The Marquis of Changling had such a literary style back then, why have only two articles come out so far?" ”
From Chen Mo to write the polemic to now, there have been nearly ten years, Chen Mo was able to write such a shocking article back then, but these years, especially after becoming a prince, there is no poetry to come out, which is very strange in You Heng's opinion.
"In troubled times, no matter how good the article is, it can't save the people of the world." Chen Mo shook his head and sighed.
"Then I don't know if the Marquis of Changling still remembers whose world this world is?" You Heng's eyes sharpened, and he looked at Chen Mo, and his tone became aggressive.
Yang Xiu frowned, there was something inappropriate to say this, especially when he told Chen Mo in this place, it was even more inappropriate.
Jia Xu put down the wine, looked at You Heng, frowned slightly, Xun You's face became serious, Xu Shu and Li Ru put down the pen and ink in their hands, and the atmosphere of the entire government office suddenly became solemn.
"In the last article of "Mencius", it was said that the people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light." Chen Mingming really thought about it and said: "This may not be all right, if I look at it, the people are like rivers and seas, the society is like a boat, and the king can be regarded as a boatman, who is light and who is heavy, although Mencius said so, but it is only the words of his family, Zhengping should also have traveled, it should be clear who is important and who is light, as for who is the world in this world?" Different positions see different things, it can be said that it is the Son of Heaven, or it can be said that it is the world of the people of the world, all things are born, there is no owner, how can anyone say? But the rivers and seas can be crossed, but they can also be overturned. ”
The world has never been a family with a surname, this is the truth that Dong Zhuo entered Beijing and the princes discussed Dong, Chen Mo realized the truth, if it is a family with a surname, why is there a Shang, Zhou, Qin and Han dynasties?
You Heng frowned slightly, wanting to refute, but what Chen Mo said was indeed quite reasonable, and he couldn't find a reason to refute it for a while, and even felt that his concept was being shaken.
Avoid the real and attack the ...... Clever.
You Heng turned his head, looked at Jia Xu and the others on the side, and suddenly sighed: "Changling Hou Wencai's martial arts are rare in the world, but it's a pity that no one is available under the tent, it's a pity that it's a pity ......."
Xu Shu, Jia Xu, Li Ru, Xun You: "......"
Forget it!
At this moment, a thought flashed inexplicably in everyone's hearts.
"Yuan Zhi young man learned the sword to sweep away the troubled times, but when he was young, he found that a person's sword could not save the world, and it was to abandon the martial arts and follow the literature, but for three years, he could not only strategize, win a thousand miles, but also govern the place, and rejuvenate the people; Wenhe is far-reaching, although there are few words, but every time he says, he can directly point to the fundamental interests; Wen You is a good strategist, and the three auxiliary military aircraft are all governed by him; Gongda has reached the power change, the government affairs of the imperial court, and sorted it out casually, I don't know what Mr. Zhengping thinks, can the merits of these four people be outstanding? Chen Mo pointed to the four people in the hall and asked.
"How can the talent of one person be judged by merit?" You Heng frowned.
"But there is no size in the world, all day long only to show off the literary talent to grandstand, Zhengping thinks that this can be a masterpiece? Can Wencai make people worry about food and clothing? Or can it make the princes stop the war and return the world to peace? Chen Mo asked rhetorically.
"Can the Marquis of Changling dare to give me a county to govern?" You Heng stood up and frowned.
"Yiyang?" Chen Mo turned his head and looked at Li Ru on the side.
Li Ru nodded and said: "It just so happens that Yiyang Ling is vacant, but this place is located in a remote area, and with the talent of Zhengping, it is inevitable to give in." ”
"Why not, if it is a rich county, it is politically clear, how can it be convincing?" You Heng got up and saluted Chen Mo and said, "Only the Patriarch Linghou knows that our outstanding literary talent is not grandstanding, and we have also done practical things." ”
"Good."
