Chapter 194

After reading the book, the address of [Wanbenshen Station]: Avoid the pain of chasing books!

The two of them came to the main room and sat down, taking advantage of the family's efforts to make tea, only to go back to the house and put on their shoes, and then go back to Gongsun Hong to sit down, stretch their heads out of the elders, and make it look like they want to listen to his teachings.

"Lord Father, I heard that you are also a Persian, and I came here today to talk about the friendship of my fellow countrymen. The adult's family is in Qi State, is there anyone else in Linzi? ”

"When I was thirteen, my parents died, and I had no brother and sister-in-law, so I have lived alone until now." The master father said quietly.

"Rare, rare!" Gongsun Hong praised: "No wonder the adults have unique character and are self-reliant very early. It's commendable to be alone to be so far away! ”

"Prime Minister, you are over fifty years old, you are an official in the court, more than sixty, and finally ascend to the phase, this move is rare in the world, and it is difficult for the world to do it! The master father was in the court a few days ago, and his words were abrupt, and he hoped that the prime minister would forgive him. ”

Gongsun Hong saw that the more the master father spoke, the closer he became, so he changed the topic: "Lord father, we are fellow countrymen, don't say kind words." The old man is old and sick, and when he is in his last years, he is very worried about the lack of successors. The prime minister did not have much merit when he was in office, and he just wanted to recommend a successor to the emperor like Xiao He when he left office. Since the adults are fellow villagers, they can talk about this matter. According to the eyes of adults, who can recommend this young and strong man in the court to the emperor? ”

When the master father heard this, he became excited: I didn't expect his Gongsun Hong to have Xiao Cao's heart to inherit! My master father Yan has long wanted to recommend himself! On second thought, am I not too stupid? What kind of friendship does Gongsun Hong have with himself? Why don't I go around with him a few times to see what medicine is in his gourd?

"According to the lower officials, in terms of talent, Dongfang Bai should be the first choice."

Gongsun Hong shook his head. "Dongfang Bai is both civil and military, intelligent, adaptable, and the first in the world. He is also a fellow countryman of Qi and other countries, and he is the best candidate. Helplessly, this person is funny, his words are absurd, and at the same time, he regards his official position as grass shoes, and fame and fortune as fetters. ”

"That-Tingwei Zhang Tang, young and promising, does not enforce the law, and is scheming, and now he is really the emperor's minister, isn't this person the best candidate for prime minister?" The master father Yan moved out of Zhang Tang again.

Gongsun Hong shook his head: "Zhang Tang works in scheming, and he is arbitrary and cruel to his subordinates, and he is cruel to the yin and yang, and it is okay to govern the prison with him, and it is cool to govern the country with him." ”

"Wei Qing! General Wei! He is the emperor's brother-in-law and the pillar of the country! is upright, humble and respectful, and is indeed a candidate for prime minister! "The master father has brought out another general.

"Hahahaha! General Wei Da managed the army well, and if he talked about leading the troops to fight, he would definitely be able to attack the city. However, it is impossible to rule the world immediately, since the ancestor of Gao, it has become a foregone conclusion, why did Mr. say such a thing? ”

"Then I don't know." The master father spread his hands out.

"Don't hide it, according to your own appearance, you are the prime minister!"

"What?" The master's eyes widened, he himself was only a middle-aged doctor at the moment, and he didn't dare to think about it yet! Why does Gongsun Hong value it so much? "Prime Minister's Fallacy Award, Prime Minister's Words Are Serious! How can the master father be so virtuous, and the prime minister is so elevated? ”

Gongsun Hong smiled and said, "Master Father, you are an ambitious person, how can the old man not know this?" It's just that the career is rubbing, and the opportunity is not met. Mencius said: 'Heaven will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds and strain their muscles and bones'. Your mind has been tormented, your muscles and bones have been strained, and now you are just waiting for the great task from heaven! ”

The master father seemed to be a large wooden barrel that had been floating on his side for many years in the well, and he was suddenly reminded by him with a rope. Oh, yes! Those hardships that are difficult for people to experience, for God wants to torture my mind and my bones. Wang Zang's road has not come to an end, and my master father Yan will continue to walk! Thinking of this, he sent all the expectations of many years to his eyes, and sent a strong light of seeking advice to Gongsun Hong.

Unexpectedly, Gongsun Hong's high-minded talk stopped abruptly, and suddenly let out a long sigh!

"Prime Minister, is there any hidden worry?" The master father was a little confused.

Gongsun Hong shook his head slightly. "There are some things that I can only tell you. That day in the court, didn't Dongfang Bai say that I deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors? Didn't the emperor also say that he wanted to see what high opinions my teacher Dong Zhongshu had? Do you want to reuse it out of the ordinary? In fact, the emperor didn't know what Old Master Dong was doing, and Dongfang Bai didn't know either. ”

"I heard that he hasn't been out for three years in order to study the way of learning things, and he hasn't been to the garden once?" The master asked.

"Never looked into the garden? It's no need to peep. I arranged his garden, I still don't understand? Once I went to see his old man's house, I suddenly wanted to make it easier, and looked for a toilet everywhere, but suddenly I couldn't find it. Since then, I have learned that the old gentleman does not want a toilet. He used the large vegetable garden behind the study as a large toilet. Think about it, he just needs to go to the toilet, and he still needs to peep into the garden? Hearing this, the master father couldn't help but laugh.

Gongsun Hong also laughed, and then he whispered: "Those words that don't eat the fireworks in the world are all passed on by his juniors, and the purpose is to be paid attention to by the emperor." ”

"Could it be that his old gentleman still has the heart to enter the ranks?"

"That's what I'm worried about. Father, if you think about it, I am seventy-seven out of sixty this year, and I feel that I am running out of energy. Old Master Dong is seven years older than me, and he is seventy-four years old, and he still remembers to depose the hundred schools and respect Confucianism. Alone, alone, I have been fighting for this for more than ten years, who has respected us alone? The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, let's pull down our fingers, plus the number of foot Bu girls, how many are Confucian scholars reused by the emperor? I'm only worried that one day, even I, a person who has a lot of power left and right, will be deposed, and Confucianism will have no status! What's more, those of us in our seventies and eighties will stay on the stage forever, do those young descendants still have a way to advance? Speaking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the master father.

The master father felt that the opportunity had come, but he felt that Gongsun Hong's words were still unfinished, so he pretended not to know and asked, "Prime Minister, what are you telling me about this?" ”

"Who made us fellows? When the fellow saw the fellow, his eyes were full of tears. This person, if he has any thoughts in his heart, he always has to find someone to talk to. Gongsun Hong lowered his voice again: "Master Father, do you know, Old Master Dong is actually a person with a big official addiction, why don't you peep into the garden for three years, he has been dreaming of the prime minister all day long, peeping at the prime minister's position all day long, of course the garden is not worth peeping at!" Having said that, I'm not reluctant to take this phase, I'm just afraid that he, a stubborn old man, will come out and shout something like 'depose a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone', which will cause more ministers to be disgusted, and the emperor will not really listen to him, if he doesn't do it, he will be killed! ”

The master father said in amazement: "Prime Minister, is it so serious? ”

Gongsun Hong was also shocked: "Master Father, others don't understand, don't you know?" Since Gaozu established the world, Xiao He has been used as the prime minister, which prime minister is not living a trembling life? Especially since the emperor ascended the throne, which prime minister has had good results? Dou Ying is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, or the nephew of the Empress Dowager, who never fought for power and profit, and finally died tragically in prison? The next Tian Hao, is the younger brother of the queen mother, or the emperor's uncle, wasn't he also frightened to death? There is also that Xuchang, Zhuang Qingzhai and the two of them, acting as prime ministers for a few days, none of them died in their lives. My teacher is a strong-eyed man, he has only heard people say that after eating spicy water chestnuts, they are fragrant and crispy. In fact, how did he know that after eating spicy water chestnuts, he had to have a runny nose after tears! Speaking of this, Gongsun Hong himself laughed.
