Chapter 8 Containment of Murong Yanchao

Why is Murong Yanchao nervous, because Lao Kong went south! This Confucian Mansion really has some reputation, this Guo Wei's holy decree keeps saying that he wants to find this "Wenxuan Gong Kong Renyu", but Lao Kong is gone, no matter how great his ability Murong Yanchao is, can he still conjure a new Kong Renyu for Guo Wei? If you can't change it, this thing will be in trouble. Such a famous person, when he arrives in Jinling, can this not cause a sensation?

Although it is said that now Da Chu and Da Zhou are hostile to each other, and the favorability is very low, Da Chu scolds Da Zhou for being a thief, and Da Zhou scolds Da Chu for selling fame and reputation, and wants to set up a memorial arch. The border between the two countries is said to be a mutual blockade and people are not allowed to enter and exit, but in fact, except for Shouzhou and Chuzhou on the Huai River, which are easy to do because they are separated by a big river, the rest of the places, like Xuzhou, Haizhou, and Suzhou, the governments of the two countries have not turned a blind eye. In this way, the news of Kong Renyu's arrival in Jinling will be known by Guo Wei sooner or later.

As soon as Guo Wei knew that Kong Renyu was a subject under his jurisdiction, could he not doubt himself? Although Murong Yanchao was unhappy with Guo Wei and wanted to rebel, even if he wanted to rebel, Murong Yanchao still hoped that Guo Wei would not know that he could surprise him and make a mess against him, instead of letting Guo Wei stare at him all the time.

Murong Yan is super difficult, this kid ran to Qufu overnight, and asked the old Kong family to re-elect a new patriarch to accept Guo Wei's holy decree and reward on behalf of Kong Renyu, and he also gave a closed order, so that the old Kong family said that Kong Renyu likes to travel, and he has already gone out to play. This reason is actually quite bad, but the Kong family is valued by the imperial court, but because of the status of the Kong family, the old Kong family doesn't travel much, and in the name of the Confucian saint, isn't it jealous to form a gang.

How close Yanzhou is to Bianjing, the news of Kong Renyu's trip quickly spread back to Bianjing. Kong Renyu's southward movement was a positive, conducive to social harmony, and conducive to the broad masses of the people to unite tightly around the Great Chu Emperor Ma Yun, which was a move of great historical significance, and was copied as a huge political show at the time.

Because Xuzhou and Suzhou don't know what's going on, suddenly there are more horse thieves, the public security situation is very poor, the Ma Chu government is worried that the horse thieves don't study, and accidentally injured Wen Xuangong, so there is no propaganda in Xuzhou and Suzhou, after crossing the Huai River, it is immediately a gong to open the way, the colorful flags are fluttering, Kong Renyu was summoned to have to travel behavior, which was officially defined by the Great Chu as Kong Renyu felt that the north was swept away, based on the national righteousness, only went south to promote Confucianism, and rebuilt a major righteous act of Chinese defense, which represents... It signifies ... It greatly facilitates ... (Some words omitted here)

Kong Renyu's southward movement, after such propaganda by Ma Chu's official, was well known, and even in Songzhou, Xuzhou and other places in the Central Plains, there were people talking about this matter (in the face of Bianjing's strong speech control, after countless hot-blooded young people in the wind catching house fell under the butcher's knife of the pseudo-Zhou, the focus of the work of the wind catching house had to be shifted from Bianjing to the area around Bianjing). Although the strength of Guo's father and son's ear report is weaker, but Ma Chu has such a strong publicity, how could Guo Wei not know that Kong Renyu has run away?

Kong Renyu ran away, implying two things, the first is that on the road to winning the heart of the scholar, Guo Wei slowed down Ma Yun. However, the monk can't run away from the temple, there are still a lot of people of insight in Bianjing City, Li Gu directly wrote to Guo Wei, asking Guo Wei to remove Kong Renyu's title, and canonize the new Wenxuan Gong, and at the same time push the boat down the river to announce Kong Renyu's crimes, didn't the Kong family explain: Did Kong Renyu go out to play?

Our court can naturally take over and accuse Kong Renyu of violating the teachings of the sage, didn't the sage say: Parents are here, don't travel far. Kong Renyu's mother is still there, why did she go out to play? Then he took out some trivial things about Kong Renyu and made an article, so that everyone in the world understood that Kong Renyu's morality was not up to par, so the court was aware of everything and replaced him. In this way, it is a little embarrassing to even go south with the propaganda of the Chu State, Kong Renyu.

Then, Li Gu suggested that there were seventy-two disciples of the Confucian saints back then, and these people such as Yan Hui, Zilu and others were also famous, so His Majesty might as well send people to find the descendants of these people and let them be the lords of Qufu County.

Guo Wei thought about it, nodded, and agreed. Since the State of Chu wants to follow Confucius to elevate himself, our Da Zhou can borrow the Confucian Mansion to suppress you, the seventy-two sages of Confucius, with various backgrounds, which also shows that our Da Zhou does not care about the background of officials, as long as it is a talent, we will use it in Da Zhou!

This second thing, Kong Renyu didn't run early or late, but went south after Ma Yun became emperor, what role did Murong Yanchao play in it? Guo Wei secretly said in his heart: It seems that this Murong brother has not done what he asked him to do: he is open-minded and has no worries. This Murong Yanchao is definitely not his fellow traveler, so he has to deal with him.

Guo Wei thought secretly. During these days, he was not comfortable at all, and he had to consider a lot of issues every day, Liu Chong, Murong Yanchao, and Ma Yun were what he thought about the most, and the one who was most likely to conflict with him should be Liu Chong, after all, Liu Chong had already proclaimed himself emperor in Taiyuan, and he swore that he would not be incompatible.

However, Liu Chong's territory in Taiyuan is too small, only twelve states, and it is difficult to compete with himself, this guy must learn from his predecessor Shi Jingjiao. This person has already sent people to the Khitan to practice, worshiping the Khitan Emperor Yelu Shulu (later renamed Yelu Jing) as his uncle, hoping to use the power of the Khitan uncle to "destroy Zhou Xinghan", and rely on the support of the Khitan people to be the emperor of the Central Plains like Shi Jingjiao.

In the short term, Taiyuan is an old enemy, and in the long run, the Chu State in the south is the great enemy of the Central Plains. However, the meal should be eaten one bite at a time. Murong Yanchao's tumor might as well be pulled out first! Guo Wei secretly made up his mind.

He sent Wang Yanchao to be an envoy to Yizhou to strengthen the defense of Yizhou. In addition, Gao Xingzhou, the father of Gao Huaide, a trusted general, was dispatched to be the envoy of the Tianping Festival in Zhenzhou. Strengthening the defense of remote Yizhou is already a warning to Murong Yanchao, and appointing Gao Huaide as the envoy of the festival of Zhenzhou, which is less than 100 miles away from Yanzhou, is even more of a threat to Murong Yanchao.

Wang Yanchao is a junior, and his official rank has always been very low, and Gao Xingzhou became famous very early, and he is a famous general in the Central Plains, this person and Murong Yanchao are mortal enemies, when Liu Zhiyuan was the emperor, the two formed a mortal enemy, Murong Yanchao framed Gao Xingzhou many times, but fortunately, Liu Zhiyuan understood what kind of character his younger brother was, and put two people in the east and the other in the south, so that they were far away.

Murong Yanchao is a lot smarter, and when he heard that Gao Xingzhou was the envoy of the balance festival, he immediately came up with a clever plan to deal with Gao Xingzhou.
