Chapter 22: Heated Debate
The dishes came up one by one, and more than ten dishes had been served in less than a moment, and Qi Liang's table only sat him, Qian Yunfang, and Xiao Liuzi.
"How can you finish eating so many dishes?" Qi Liangzheng was stunned, and at the same time, two cold snorts came: "What a big show!" One voice came from the strong man, and the other came from behind him, but it was a middle-aged scribe with a white face and a beard, looking very dignified and upright.
In fact, this is not Qi Liang's business, it is the dish ordered by Xiao Liuzi, and Wu Yingxiong lived this kind of life before he came. Qi Liang sighed bitterly, and glanced back with innocent eyes, he didn't expect that there were so many righteous people in this era, but they were much stronger than later generations.
"Shizi! The one in the back is Lord Zhou Peigong! Qian Yunfang also glanced back and actually knew the person.
"Zhou Peigong?" Qi Liang exclaimed, but turned back again but looked carefully, "He is Zhou Peigong?" "Zhou Peigong is one of the few Kangxi era figures that Qi Liang remembers.
In history, Zhou Peigong, Mingchang, the word Peigong, is a native of Guanyan Village, Macheng Town, Daodao District, Jingmen City, Hubei Province, born in the fifth year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty (1632), died in the 40th year of Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (1701), at the age of 69. He is both civil and military, upright, resolute and courageous, intelligent, dedicated, proficient in governing the world, and deeply aware of the way of life, and is one of the important advisers around Kangxi. He single-handedly braved Longtan and persuaded the Shaanxi Governor who echoed Wu Sangui's rebellion alone, and made great contributions to Kangxi's quelling of chaos, but Qi Liang knew that Zhou Peigong's most powerful thing was not his mouth, but his strategy.
Qian Yunfang is suspicious, is there anything special about Pei Gong this week? It's worth all the fuss that the son of the world is making such a fuss.
"What kind of official is he now?" Qi Liang asked sideways.
Qian Yunfang said: "He is just walking in the study, and he has no real power for a false position!" ”
Qi Liang nodded in understanding, then stood up and said to Xijiao, "Can this gentleman come over for a meal?" ”
Zhou Peigong said coldly: "Don't dare to bother, it's already used up!" ”
Qi Liang smiled, took the initiative to approach, and said very sincerely: "Meeting is fate, and it doesn't hurt to have a glass of water and wine and chat!" ”
"Not interested! Please come back! Zhou Peicheng didn't even look at it.
The two of them made the same sound, why did the fat man only respect the middle-aged scribe and ignore the strong man? Many people look at this, they admire the self-cultivation of fat people, rich and powerful, and are ridiculed by others, not only do they not get angry, but they also invite people to drink.
Qi Liang squinted and smiled, and said with a needle hidden in his face: "Lord Zhou! Really don't want to appreciate your face? ”
Zhou Peigong was obviously stunned, he thought that the other party didn't know who he was! "The Tao is different, don't conspire with each other, please go back!" The tone was much more polite, but he still rejected Qi Liang.
If you don't break your identity just now, the other party can still pretend to speak, but now that your identity is broken, she still refuses, Qi Liang has to think about it seriously, he doesn't think that Zhou Peigong is a stunned young man who doesn't understand human accidents, which can only show that the DPRK and China have roughly decided on the matter of cutting the domain, and some people are clearly on the side that supports the cutting of the domain, and they are not even afraid of the retaliation of the Pingxi Palace.
Qi Liang's color changed, he glared at Zhou Peigong fiercely, turned around and shouted, "Drive everyone else out!" ”
All the people were taken aback, and the guards reacted and immediately drove away the scattered guests, who were reluctant but afraid of obscenity and had to go downstairs with a curse, but they were in trouble driving away the strong man.
"Let's see who dares to come and chase our house!" The strong man said angrily.
Qi Liang shouted impatiently: "Kick him downstairs!" ”
The guards pounced, and although the strong man had a little kung fu, he was invincible with two hands and four punches, and he was knocked off the stairs after a while.
At this time, Xiao Liuzi was relieved, and said proudly: "Look at you are still arrogant!" ”
Zhou Peigong has been watching coldly, and said sarcastically: "The prince is so majestic! He was still a little fond of Qi Liang's courtesy at first, but now he only has disgust.
Qi Liang ignored him and instructed the people below: "You all stand down, guard the door and don't let anyone come up!" After that, he found a seat and slowly sat down opposite Zhou Peigong.
Zhou Peigong waited for Qi Liang to speak without saying a word, Qi Liang stared at the talented and arrogant celebrity opposite, the affairs of the Wu family were ruined by him in a sense.
"Pei Gong walks in the upper study!" He asked kindly, with a salivating face.
"So what?" Zhou Peigong glanced at it.
"If Brother Pei is willing, the Pingxi Royal Mansion can recommend you to be the governor of Yunnan!" Qi Liangtao is close, and he does not hesitate to surrender his identity and respect the other party as a brother.
Zhou Peigong didn't buy it at all: "I'm not interested!" ”
Qi Liang said again: "If you are allowed another ten thousand taels of gold, how about the first seat of the mansion?" ”
"The great husband stands up to the heavens and the earth, how can he love the yellow and white things?" Zhou Peigong said disdainfully, unmoved.
Qi Liang slapped the table and said angrily: "It's all under my Qing Dynasty, you are an official in Beijing, and you are also an official in Yunnan, why don't you want to be a high-ranking official in gold and silver?" ”
Zhou Peigong laughed, and said unclearly: "Sima Zhao's heart, passers-by know it!" ”
Since it came to this, Qi Liang had no scruples, and asked: "Are you willing to be a lackey of the Manchu Qing Dynasty for the rest of your life?" He knew that he would have an argument with Zhou Peigong, so he cleared the scene.
"Everyone can say this, but your Wu family can't say it! Think about what your Wu family has done and the sins you have committed! Zhou Peigong was resentful, then sighed, and said: "After decades of war, the people are tired of the war, and they just want to live a peaceful life. ”
Qi Liang sneered: "Living under the iron horses of an alien race, you must be called a slave at the exit, do you need this kind of undignified life?" Remembering the opening of a poem, he read, "The door for man to enter and out is locked, and the hole for the dog to crawl out is open." He glanced at him and asked coldly, "Are you willing to be that dog?" ”
Zhou Peigong is a talented and self-respecting person, his face is red and white, and he argues: "Huayi is not distinguished, now the Manchu Qing Dynasty speaks the words of my Han people, and writes the words of my Han nation, and there is no distinction between each other!" ”
Qi Liang asked rhetorically: "What's the matter with the braids on this head?" ”
Zhou Pei said: "As long as life is stable, what about making some changes in clothing?" Moreover, the Manchurians have changed more for us. ”
"Do you think the people can really live a stable life under the rule of the Manchus?" Qi Liang's confidence is not enough, he also understands that seeking reunification and stability is the trend of the times, otherwise there will be no defeat of Wu Sangui in history and the prosperity of Kangxi.
"Today's saint is young and promising, eloquent and strategic, strives to learn our Han culture, is cautious in employing people, and behaves properly, he is a good emperor, and the people will definitely live a peaceful life under his rule." Zhou Pei is fair.
Qi Liang asked: "Kangxi is a good emperor, but can you guarantee that every emperor after Kangxi is a good emperor?" He paused for a moment and then said, "So your so-called peaceful life is only temporary, and then the people will fall into a long-term turmoil, and life will be even more difficult and humiliating!" ”
Zhou Peigong was slightly stunned and asked, "Why do you say this!" ”
Qi Liang said abruptly: "It is precisely because the Manchu Qing Dynasty earnestly studied our Han culture that this result will be caused, because at this time, our Han national culture has fallen behind, and the barbarian Fandi will invade our China again with strong ships and cannons, so that our people will fall into a state of no disaster." ”
Zhou Peigong didn't believe it: "Nonsense, alarmist!" ”
Qi Liang smiled: "I know that Brother Pei has been familiar with military books since he was a child, loves Qimen Dunjia, can swing military vehicles, line up in battle formations, know astronomy, and investigate geography, but Brother Pei knows what is in the west of Kunlun Mountain?" ”
Zhou Pei said fairly: "There is a big food in the west of Kunlun!" ”
When did the Great Food Capital go into history? Qi Liang didn't break it, and continued to ask: "What about the West of the Great Food?" ”
Zhou Peigong shook his head, and Qi Liang said: "There are dozens of countries there, although they have constant clashes of civilizations and wars, but they have passed the Renaissance and entered the embryonic stage of the industrial revolution, and their civilization and progress have surpassed our Han culture!" ”
"What is the Renaissance? What is the Industrial Revolution? Zhou Peigong asked suspiciously, but he was also shocked by what Qi Liang said, and glanced at him strangely.
"The Renaissance was an intellectual and cultural movement that arose in the 14th century in a city called Italy and flourished rapidly on the European continent in the 16th century, bringing about a great scientific and artistic revolution. The Industrial Revolution is the transition from manual production to machine production. Qi Liang roughly explained that he didn't know if Italy was called Italy during this period, and whether there was a European name, anyway, Zhou Peigong didn't know, and there was no problem with chaos.
Zhou Peigong also asked a lot of questions, and Qi Liang explained to him the direction of European political, economic, industrial, and military development, as well as the human geography and history of the European part.
Zhou Peigong still didn't understand it, but his shock to him was huge, seeing that Qi Liang's eyes were changing, he asked worriedly: "Is their culture really more advanced than my Han culture?" Are they really more powerful than the Manchu Iron Cavalry? ”
Qi Liang said: "Not necessarily, but if our Han culture does not actively change and absorb foreign advanced culture, it will definitely fall behind; If our Han nation is not actively enterprising and strives for development, it will definitely be beaten! ”
"Listening to the son of the world, Pei Gong has benefited a lot!" Zhou Peigong respected Qi Liang a lot.
"Brother Pei is willing to seek the well-being of the people and create peace for the people for all eternity?" Qi Liang returned to the old topic.
Zhou Peigong shook his head: "The prince is not a great talent, Peigong hopes that the prince can persuade the prince of Pingxi to obey the orders of the imperial court, cut down the feudal domain and withdraw the army, and return the people to a peaceful world, and Peigong can also serve the court and serve the country with the prince!" ”
After saying that the salt water did not enter for a long time, Qi Liang sat down in discouragement, Zhou Peigong really can't be used by me?
Qi Liang sat down, but Zhou Peigong stood up instead: "Pei Gong's words also ask the prince to think twice, Pei Gong resigned!" ”
Looking at Zhou Peigong's distant back, Qi Liang sighed helplessly, and Qian Yunfang came up and asked, "Shizi!" How's the talk? ”
Qi Liang's pupils contracted, and he said gloomily: "Find a chance to kill him!" ”
