Chapter Twenty-Six: Who Asks the Left Man (2-in-1)
"The so-called obscenity does not mean that there are too many gatherings and sacrifices, but that it is about collecting wealth and misleading farmers. Although we often hold meetings, we rarely ask the poor for goods, let alone delay their normal work! β
And the fallacy is even more sensational! What we serve in Taiping Dao is the 'Tao of Huang Lao'! When did the Han family become a fallacy? ! β
"And confusing the crowd...... Since it is not a fallacy, but a righteous way of scriptures, then there is a crowd to preach, how can it be confused? Isn't that an act of edification? β
This tall and thin Taiping Daoist was impassioned, and Gongsun Xun also nodded frequently while listening...... After all, the latter also knows that what the former says is basically the truth.
Today's Taiping Dao really can't see any deviance, let alone a demonic way. It was the people of insight in the court who realized its harmfulness, and it was also because they noticed its powerful mobilization power and the complexity of its constituent personnel, not that there was a problem with the scriptures and behavior of the Taiping Dao.
In fact, like Confucianism, Taiping Dao also uses antiquity as an ideal template...... They believe that during the reign of the Yellow Emperor, there was no exploitation and oppression, no hunger, cold and disease, no fraud and theft, and everyone was free and happy, and this world was called 'Taiping World', and the duty of Taiping Dao was 'to bring peace'.
Moreover, these people worship Lao Tzu and the Yellow Emperor...... You can't say what kind of evil people these two are, right?
As for the means of preaching, as far as Gongsun Xun knows, there are no more than two kinds:
One is repentance, whoever has committed a mistake, as long as you run to the road and kowtow sincerely, kowtow to the sky and kowtow to the earth, then your sins can be dissolved;
The other is the so-called Fu water to cure the disease, burn the Fu and drink water, the illness is naturally sincere, and the illness is not good to go to see the king of Youdu, which is naturally due to the insincerity of the heart.
These two tricks are very attractive and confusing, but even Gongsun Xun can't say anything...... Because these days are so superstitious! Didn't you see what Cai Bojiao said? As long as the Son of Heaven sincerely prays respectfully and respectfully in which direction at what time and place, then any chronic diseases in this world will be solved.
In that case, why don't you allow people to be honest and sincere?!
Besides, if it weren't for despair to the extreme, how many people would believe in such a thing?
"As for colluding with the inner servants...... this Taiping Taoist is still arguing, and at this point, this person, who had been showing anger before, suddenly sneered. This sin is that we dare to admit it, the prince dares to determine, and the court will never dare to allow it, right? Excuse me, is Shangshutai, who is now dealing with government affairs, in charge of the inner servants? Is the Yellow Gate Eunuch, who conveys the will of the Son of Heaven, also in charge of the inner servants? Xiyuan, who paid the money when the civil and military officials were promoted, was still in the hands of the inner servants? If it is a crime to collude with the inner servants, from the third prince down, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty should be guilty of the same crime...... It's you, the prince, a wife and a concubine, aren't you also the relatives of the two eunuchs?! β
"Presumptuous!" Dong Zhao rarely took the case.
Gongsun Xun glanced at Dong Zhao disappreciatively, but turned around and motioned to the Taiping Daoist to continue: "You don't have to worry about him, and go on, there is still one crime that you haven't pleaded to?" β
The Taiping Daoist was originally angry with Dong Zhao with his head held high, but at this time, he was forced by Gongsun Xun, but he couldn't help but be stunned.
Because, the last charge is 'rebellion'.
In all fairness, this is actually a charge that can be easily refuted, and it can even be said that there is no need to refute it at all, because if anyone wants to say that someone else has rebelled, he has to come up with evidence, right? If you touch your mouth like this, you will say that others are rebelling, and let others prove that he is not rebelling, then the world will be in chaos!
In other words, the Taiping Daoists can easily avoid this topic.
However, this is Xiangguo County, which is subordinate to Zhao State, adjacent to Julu, and almost everyone here knows that Zhang Jiao once rebelled once...... It's just a pardon. Therefore, if this Taiping Daoist is a person who really wants to be reasonable, then he can't avoid this topic.
"In the past, the great sages and good teachers misunderstood the meaning of the scriptures in the Taiping Sutra, thinking that if the yellow sky wanted to descend into the world, it would be necessary to change the ...... of the world," after a long time, this Taoist reluctantly explained.
"I also read through the Taiping Sutra." Gongsun Xun suddenly interrupted the other party in the stunned eyes of many people in the hall. "Isn't the so-called great sage and good teacher taken from the scripture of 'The words of the pillars of heaven and the masses are not as good as the country'? In this case, this person who claims to be a great sage and good teacher should be able to foresee and transcend the eyes of the world. β
The tall and thin Taiping Daoist was speechless for a while, and could only say: "If you didn't think that Huang Tian would come to the world, how could there be such an accident?" β
"Didn't you hear that Zhang Xiu in Hanzhong was in a hurry to raise the Five Doumi Sect, for fear of falling behind?" Gongsun Xun rarely sneered, this was the secret he heard from Wang Xian and Wang Daoren.
That's right, Zhang Jiao's first rebellion was not because his head was in water, he heard that the Wudoumi Sect in Hanzhong and the Guanzhong Sect suddenly rose, for fear that someone would rob him of his business, so he couldn't hold it back and raised the flag to rebel...... The result is naturally 'pure practice'.
Hearing this, the Taiping Daoist's face became more and more pale: "The things of the past, the Son of Heaven has been forgiven, why should the prince keep an eye on it?" Besides, after that day, the great sage and good teacher put his mind on educating the people, curing the sick and saving people, and condemning today's trip with the sins of the past, is it okay? β
This is to take the initiative to admit on this topic, it seems that at this time, the personality cult of these Taiping Daoists for the great sages and good teachers has not yet reached the later share.
"It's not that I'm deliberately looking for the stubble of Taiping Road." Gongsun Xun also laughed easily when he heard this. "After talking for a long time, I don't even know what your name is."
"Zhang Sheng!"
"Which sheng?"
"The sun shines brightest!"
"That Zhang Sheng," Gongsun Xun asked with a smile. "You call me a prince, you should know who I am, right?"
"It's nature." Zhang Daoren said frankly. "Up and down the Zhao Kingdom, can there be a second prince?!"
Ma's husband, who was sitting on the ground in a daze, was also suddenly startled at this time.
"Then do you know why I'm looking for trouble in the Taiping Road?" Gongsun Xun continued to ask questions.
"I really don't know." This Daoist replied helplessly.
"It's because of jealousy." The more helpless the other party is, the more relaxed Gongsun Xun becomes. "I'm really jealous of your great sage and teacher......"
"The prince's family background is outstanding, and the family is rich, and now he is a young marquis with a great future...... Why should we be jealous of our great sages? Zhang Sheng was inexplicable, and even a little angry.
In fact, don't talk about Zhang Sheng, even Dong Zhao and Lou Gui also looked sideways, only the husband Ma, who had just vaguely recovered, sat on the futon in a trance, not knowing what he was thinking.
"How can you not be jealous?" Gongsun Xun raised his head and sighed. "I took office at the turn of spring and summer, and as soon as I took office, I felt that the people's livelihood was difficult and extraordinary, so I vigorously cracked down on Haoqiang, dismissed slippery officials, and checked the household registration and acres of land, and also appeased the displaced people in the Taihang Mountains, and recently built a public school and donated books. In the winter, they are even ready to renovate the Qilu River. In all kinds of incidents, I asked myself if I was doing my best and was worthy of the people of Zhao State...... Right? β
Zhang Sheng was silent for a moment, but still nodded and admitted: "The prince is in charge, and the Zhao country is indeed a lot clearer, and even for the poor people in Luzuo, the prince is like a reborn parent...... After the autumn harvest this year, the government actually only collected the tax once and there was no further violation, but it was just a compilation of Shiwu, and it was also to prepare for the repair of the river, and the people still can't believe it! β
At this point, Zhang Sheng paused slightly, but couldn't help but add half a sentence: "I have four in my Chinese New Year's Eve this year, but since I can remember, no official in the Zhao Kingdom has done anything like the Marquis." β
"However, what I have worked so is not as good as a great sage and teacher in another county." Gongsun Xun looked at the Taoist in front of him playfully. "I've done so many things for them, Zhao people, and I don't know how much hard work and fame I have put in the middle, but it's just unbelievable. What did the great sages and good teachers do for them, and let them bow and worship? β
"Why is this the king?" Zhang Sheng didn't know what to say. "You have a future."
He really didn't know what to say!
"You don't have to say more." Gongsun Xun waved his hand and signaled. "I'll say it straight, no matter how reasonable you are, I'm going to find someone today who doesn't deal with the Taiping Dao...... Ma husband! β
"Xiaomin is here!" The horse's husband turned pale, but he got down directly from the futon, knelt down again, and then kneeled forward. "Xiao Ming really didn't know that it was Hou Ye himself, he was arrogant, and he hoped that Hou Ye would forgive!"
"I ask you." Gongsun Xun ignored the other party, and just asked himself. "Of the five counts of the Taiping Dao that I just mentioned, this Daoist has refuted four of them...... Do you say that these four crimes are justified? β
"Yes!" Ma Fei kowtowed to the ground, and then said immediately. "That Daoist is usually a nerd, what he just said is actually nonsense!"
Zhang Sheng's face turned red with anger, but he pressed it down again.
"Tell me about it." Gongsun Xun said disapprerovitically.
"It's obscenity, for example," Ma Fei said hard. "Although Xiao Lao'er doesn't know what obscenity is, he knows that we also collect money in Taiping Dao! Those who have entered the Tao will usually give us some amount of money! Since the money is given, it is that what Zhang Sheng said is not right, and what Zhang Sheng said is not right, then it must be obscenity to come to this Taiping Dao! β
"How do I not know about collecting money?!" Zhang Daoren really couldn't bear it.
"You're a worthless poor leg!" Ma Fei immediately turned his head and mocked. "Where do you need to collect money, the money on Zhao Guo's side is collected from me, every time the big families come to ask for Fu Shui and do kowtows, there are many offerings, but I directly handed it over to Julu!"
Zhang Sheng was speechless again.
"What other fallacies?" Ma Fei thought hard. "Taiping Dao is dedicated to Huang Tianzhongyi, which seems to be a serious immortal...... However, I also heard the great doctor Zhang Bao say to us at the banquet, saying that the sky is immortal, and the yellow sky is difficult to stand, and now the court relies on the sky...... Maybe that's a lie, right? β
As soon as these words came out, Gongsun Xun was fine, Lou Gui was also a little mentally prepared, but Dong Zhao and that Zhang Daoren changed color together.
"As for colluding with the chamberlain......" Ma Fei said through gritted teeth. Hou Ye looks at me, I am the proof of their Taiping Dao collusion with the inner servants! β
"You're also an in-house attendant?" Gongsun Xun also found it interesting.
"I'm not, but my son-in-law is the housekeeper of my nephew's house?" The old man's words were conclusive. "I was originally a big local family in Julu, and my family had all the fields, but I met a soldier who returned home for no reason, and asked a group of thieves to burn my whole family, because there was no property and the heirs were gone, so I had to live with my son-in-law. Later, this Taiping Dao came to me and asked me to come here to be a Taiping Daoist, what is the picture? I don't understand anything. It's not that I have taken a fancy to my son-in-law as the steward of the Julu Zhao family. The money collected here was decided at the beginning, and the great sages and teachers over there in Julu took forty percent, and the local people kept thirty percent of the daily expenses, and thirty percent were given to Lord Zhao as an offering......
"So, this is too much for you, it's actually a business?" On the side, Lou Gui couldn't help but interject and asked.
"This noble man is a wise man." Ma's husband is willing to say this. "What kind of yellow sky is the little old man is willing to worship, but this Fu Shui thing is really done as a business, it is nothing more than to make a commission for my family Lord Zhao, and the little old man also makes hard money, and he is not a person all the way to Taiping Dao."
With Ma Fei's previous narration, Zhang Sheng's complexion was originally pale and difficult to control, but after this sentence came out, it was somewhat relaxed...... After all, the other party is not really a Taiping Dao person, the other party is just a channel for Taiping Dao to bribe the Zhao Zhong clan, since this is the case, there is no need to empathize with his unbearableness, let alone worry about Taiping Dao being defiled by this kind of person.
The only trouble is the saying 'the sky is immortal, but the yellow sky is difficult to stand'...... Although nine times out of ten it is fake, because I have never heard of it at all, it is a trouble after all.
"That's enough!"
However, just as Ma Fei was about to further elaborate on the anti-thief nature of Taiping Dao in accordance with Gongsun Xun's guiding ideology, the latter, as the initiator, suddenly shouted to stop...... After all, his goal has been achieved, and Taiping Dao is not a thief who others don't know about him?
"That's the end of it." Gongsun Xun reiterated again. "Say no more, I've already made up my mind."
"What is the prince going to do with us?" Zhang Sheng also seems to be ready.
"I'm not going to deal with you personally." Gongsun Xun shook his head lightly.
"Then dare to ask the prince, what should I do with these two people and the local Taiping Dao?" Dong Zhao, who was at the top, was speechless when he heard this, what is this?
"I don't need you to deal with these two." Gongsun Xun didn't think so, but gestured out of the door. "Irrelevant people are all dispersed, Yigong, you go and get the letter I put on the eaves of the right side of Zibo's car......" Seeing that the remaining people in the hall were all puzzled, he followed up and explained two sentences. When I came, I heard that there were two sets of people in the local Taiping Road, so I was a little interested, so I took the car to this side, and at the same time specially sent someone to send a letter to Julu, and then I didn't expect Zhang Bao, the great doctor in Taiping Road, to really reply a letter to my fast horse. β
Han Dang had disappeared from everyone's field of vision, and Lou Zibo had expected that there was naturally no need to say much, but Dong Zhao suddenly had some realization, and then twisted his body a little uneasily, which was also reverie.
"I was blunt in my letter." Gongsun Xun looked at the nervous husband Ma and Zhang Sheng with a puzzled face, and couldn't help laughing. "Uncle Fang saw that Taiping Road was rampant, and I was preparing to build a water conservancy, so I was afraid of making a mistake, so I suggested that I clean up the local Taiping Road to prevent chaos during the winter labor. However, God has the virtue of a good life, and I myself have no evil thoughts about the Taiping Dao, not only do people around me believe in the Taiping Dao, but even I have read through the Taiping Sutra and deeply believe that some of the sayings in the Sutra are true......"
"What the hell is the prince trying to say?!" Zhang Sheng couldn't bear the other party's posture of being calm and light, and everything was under control.
"Nothing." Seeing this, Gongsun Xun didn't sell it anymore. "I just said to Julu's side that Uncle Fang has a life and has to obey, but I don't want to kill them all...... Therefore, the three Taiping Road nodes in Zhao State first sent the Taiping Road branch in Handan out of the country to show sincerity; The two Taiping Road nodes in Xiangguo will be disposed of today by choosing one to perfunctory Fangbo, and the other branch will be abandoned and still allowed to stay. As for the two branches of you, who can get out directly, and who wants to punish them severely, please give me an explanation over there, and I will do what I say! β
Zhang Sheng, who had always stood firm, finally turned frightened, and Ma Fei trembled like chaff for a while. The latter is worried about his fate, while the former is afraid of Gongsun Xun's murderous behavior, in case ......
However, there is no just case.
Gongsun Xun took the letter from Han Dang, tore open the wax seal that is now becoming popular in the rich and noble in public, just glanced at it and handed it to Lou Gui beside him, and then immediately ordered lightly: "Husband Ma, you treat this place as a business, but Zhang Bao, the great doctor over there, thinks you are the Gancheng of Taiping Road in Zhao State, go back...... Keep going of your business, don't delay my business! β
Ma Fei knelt down and kowtowed in front of the court, and swore a curse, and then fled in spite of the Taoist friends beside him.
And Zhang Sheng just stood frozen on the spot, not saying a word, I don't know if he was discouraged or angry.
"Zhang Daoren," Gongsun Xun also felt funny when he saw this. "You actually vaguely guessed in your heart that Julu would abandon you and choose a horse husband, didn't you? After all, your great sage and mentor have to do great things. And to do great things, believers certainly want it, but the financial and material resources of the rich and noble families are even more scarce, not to mention that the power of the palace attendants also needs to be relied on, right? Therefore, even if Ma's husband is a fake Taiping Taoist, you are a real person, and Julu did not hesitate to abandon you and choose him. β
Zhang Sheng couldn't help but clench his fists.
"It's not a malicious mockery." Gongsun Xun said lightly. "It's just that I'm really curious, even now, do you still believe in the Taiping Dao?"
"Why don't you believe it?!" Suddenly, Zhang Sheng was full of color, and the sound shook the roof beams, causing Chu Yan outside the door to be alert for a while, and Han Dang took half a step back and blocked in front of Gongsun Xun.
But Zhang Sheng only shouted angry and did not make any more drastic moves:
"The people's livelihood is withering, the people are hungry and cold, and the powerful lead the beasts to eat people, but the world is bad like this, but you Confucian scholars only know how to compete with the eunuchs for power and profit, and no one goes to see the people in the countryside! The people are born lowly, from birth to death like weeds beside the road, they don't know life, death, sickness, and old age...... No matter how selfish the great sages and good teachers are, they will also let these weeds have something to rely on! No matter how inappropriate Taiping Dao is, it also gives them some sustenance! Is it wrong to seek a peaceful world without hunger and oppression?! β
The hall was silent for a while, and it was not said that Lou Gui and Dong Zhao were each shocked, but Gongsun Xun, who was confident in this trip, was speechless.
"I was wrong." After a long time, it was Zhang Sheng who broke the silence with his words, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he rejected his previous impassionedness. "It's okay to say this to others, but Gongsun County Jun is a good official, and I just said it, I see everything you do, and it's just a matter of saying it to others, and it's ridiculous to say that you are with the prince...... I have no words now, and the prince will not say much if he wants to kill or take prisoner. β
"You can go back too!" Gongsun Xun suddenly lost the sense of superiority of the cat and mouse before, but became bored. "I will renovate the Qilu River in winter...... If it succeeds, not only will the bad land in the north of Handan and the south of Xiangguo become fertile land, but I am afraid that there will be a lot of new fields. I will do my best to allocate some of this profit to appease the poor people in Luzuo...... Thou hast great prestige before the poor in the kingdom, so thou shalt explain it to others, and let them not be taken advantage of to make trouble. β
Zhang Sheng glanced deeply at the young nobleman sitting in front of him, bowed, and then ignored the others, and turned around directly.
"The prince is really a good means." After a long time, Dong Zhao reluctantly opened his mouth to compliment. "A fake letter will make the Taiping Road of Zhao State self-defeating, and when the Qilu River is repaired in winter, there will be no more trouble in the last unstable place in the country."
"Perhaps!" Gongsun Xun replied casually.
As Dong Zhao said, Gongsun Xun didn't really want to deal with Taiping Dao from the beginning...... The thirty-six sides of Taiping Road, where can he deal with it? And besides, out of some kind of cold mind under personal ambition, he is not ready to deal with Taiping Dao.
Therefore, this action is really just as Gongsun Xun said to Lou Gui before, he is following Liu Yan's reminder to deal with Taiping Dao a little and get rid of the unstable factors of his own administration. And it has to be said that the actual organizational level of Taiping Dao and the poor quality of their leaders have indeed made the strategy jointly created by Gongsun Xun and Lou Gui a twelve-point success...... A forged letter completely deprived the two local Taiping Dao leaders of Zhao State of their harmfulness to Gongsun Xun's administration.
Even, the unstable factors before this vaguely have become a taste of help.
But then again, some of the things exposed in the process are not so comfortable...... Zhang Sheng's final roar and questioning, although he himself quickly denied it, was enough to make Gongsun Xun feel the joy and pride of less than half of the success.
"Junhou ......" Dong Zhao still wanted to say something, but unexpectedly, something flew in front of him, and he was even tighter after taking it in a hurry. What does this mean? β
"I was going to beat you up." Gongsun Xun sat back on the captain's chair and said with a slight face. "So I brought a copy of "Mao's Poems" annotated by Master Lu and you, which was originally intended to be thrown here to hint at you when I left, but now, I don't have that mind. To put it bluntly, I know that you must be the same as Uncle Fang and Liu Gong this time, and you have been entrusted by Master Lu to monitor me for him...... One light and one dark, but they also complement each other. β
Lou Gui and Han looked at each other, while Dong Zhao stopped talking.
"You don't have to hide it in front of me." Gongsun Xun sighed more and more. "I saw through your intelligence when we first met, and the way you looked in front of Uncle Fang was exactly the same as when I visited Yuan Benchu in Luoyang...... Why bother? β
Dong Zhao thought for a moment, and laughed dryly, and then finally walked down the hall and bowed: "Let the prince smile, before taking office, Duke Lu did have some entrustment, otherwise, with my qualifications, I would not be able to make up for a county magistrate so quickly...... So far, it can only be said that it is at the disposal of the prince. β
"It's all said, don't do these unnecessary things." Gongsun Xun also quickly got up and held the other party's hands and said earnestly. "Gongren, although I don't know what Lu Shi said to you, I ask myself if there is not much bad behavior in Zhao State, you can just report it...... However, you and I should not be on the side of mutual beware, and think about our own duties, the head of a county, and always do something useful, right? β
Dong Zhao buried his head deeper.
"It's still early," Gongsun Xun further suggested. "There have been many people who have offered a variety of ways to repair the river, and they should have chosen the good ones and followed them, and decided early...... If it is still early today, and the Qilu River is in the middle of the two counties, you and I will take a look in the same car, and it can be regarded as sending me off. β
"Obey the orders of the prince!" Dong Zhao bowed again.
In this way, everyone went out of the county temple, Chu Yan, Han Dang and others went to ride horses to open the road to guard, and because Lou Gui's car was only a guard of honor for supervising the post, only two people could sit, so everyone took Dong Zhao's guard of honor for the county king, and then let the three of them go straight out of the city in the same car.
However, what is interesting is that when the long-delayed carriage honor guard left Xiangguo County and came to the main intersection outside the city gate, everyone actually saw the horse husband and Zhang Sheng again!
Among them, Ma's husband took a few gorgeously dressed Taiping Taoists, knelt at the empty rural intersection, kowtowed to the sky, kowtowed to the ground, and the surrounding passers-by avoided onlookers, and even many people followed and kowtowed...... Needless to say, this is naturally one of the two major characteristics of Taiping Dao, and it is avoided to bow to heaven and earth and repent.
And Zhang Sheng, together with several Taiping Daoists who were also wearing cloth robes, stood aside, looking at Ma's husband's confession with a complicated expression, but he didn't say a word.
However, seeing the arrival of Gongsun Xun and others' frames, the horse's husband naturally didn't dare to block the road anymore, and quickly interrupted the confession ceremony and flashed to the side of the road opposite Zhang Sheng. And when the frame carrying Gongsun Xun, Dong Zhao, and Lou Gui passed by here, the Taiping Dao people on both sides saluted and greeted the passers-by.
The car drove through the intersection easily, and the corner of Gongsun Xun's eyes swept over the two groups of people, and then looked at the mountains and fields in front of him, and he suddenly felt emotional, and then remembered the poem he taught in the public school before.
In the end, he couldn't help himself, shook his head on the spot and recited: "Those who know me say that I am worried." He who does not know me shall say that I want anything. Who is this? β
The frame was far away, Zhang Sheng glanced at Ma's husband who returned to the intersection to kowtow and confess, but he ignored it, just took a few Taiping Dao people behind him, strode behind the frame and went to his home, and sang more than once along the way.
The so-called: "The other is separated, and the other is the truth."
The line is vigorous, and the center is like choking.
Those who know me say that I am worried. He who does not know me shall say that I want anything.
Long yellow sky, who is this?! β
