Chapter 22

Gongsun Xun didn't mention the incident that night to anyone, which made Lu Fan and Gongsun Yue admire his composure more and more. In Lu Fan's words, whether it was the courage to go in and steal the seal in person that night, or the bearing of being like no one now, Gongsun Shaojun is a manifestation of doing great things...... I don't know what this guy would think if he knew the truth.

But then again, no matter what, even Lu Zhi admits that putting aside the risk that is not cost-effective, Gongsun Xun's plan itself is still somewhat remarkable.

In fact, judging from the feedback in the next few days, the plan went unbelievably smoothly:

First of all, Xu Yu reported, saying that after Cai Yong saw this 'rope' table and asked about the specific content, the broad air immediately attacked, and he even wrote a 'great harmony between ancient and modern texts', and finally the three tables were sealed with rope mud and submitted to the front of the palace!

Then, today's His Majesty Long Yan Dayue directly issued an edict to commend his favorite teacher Liu Kuan and Liu Wenhuan, and his fellow countryman Lu Zhi Lu Zigan, who he admires very much, saying that these two people have both talent and morality, and forbearance for the country, which can be exemplary, just like this "Han Poem" and "Mao Poem" are like each other...... Of course, he did not forget to wave his hand and officially allowed "Mao's Poems" to be on the officially surveyed stone scripture in the form of a subtext, and also forwarded the will to the general person in charge of the stone scripture project, Guanglu doctor Yang Ci.

And what happens next is not something that can be learned from official sources.

It is said that the Han system is once every five days, and seeing that tomorrow is going to be a formal court meeting, the former Sikong, Han Guanglu's doctor Yang Ci specially invited several veteran ministers of the dynasty to his home for a drink. There is a former Situ, and now Yuan Kui; Guangluxun Liu Kuan; Yin Zhuye, Henan; Taichang Liu Yi; Sikong Xu Xun; Liu Tao in the service; Dasi Nong Zhang Ji...... All of them are the famous eunuchs of Wanluo Ruying, all of whom are heirlooms with modern classics.

The weather was hot, so the banquet was held in the back garden of the Yang Mansion.

Spread out the mat under the shade of the tree, and then put a few cases, cool breeze, wine and delicacies, and then Yang Ci sat on the main seat, and his son Yang Biao personally led several Yang children to hold pots and cups...... In addition, everyone didn't care about the official position, but just sat down at the age of the year, and it seemed to be happy for a while.

"Speaking of which, Wen Huangong has a disciple surnamed Gongsun, and it seems that he is also studying under Lu Zigan?" Suddenly, Zhang Ji, the great Si Nong, opened his mouth and asked Guangluxun Liu Kuan.

"Indeed." Liu Kuan's eyelids jumped, as if he was carried by Lu Zigan's three words, and instantly thought of the inexplicable joint list. "And there is more than one, but three brothers, called Gongsun Zhan, Gongsun Xun, and Gongsun Yue. The three of them first worshiped under Lu Zigan's door, and when Lu Zigan was in Jiujiang a few days ago, I cherished that these three brothers were all Puyu, so I accepted them as disciples again. I don't know if Dasi Nong can have some advice, but which of them is in trouble? ”

"Hey, where is the teaching?" Zhang Ji shook his head and smiled. "It's not a trouble, it's a funny thing...... And I also remembered that it was that Gongsun Xun who did it. ”

Everyone likes to listen to stories, and as soon as this remark came out, the nobles who wore blue and purple looked sideways.

It turned out that this Zhang Ji's ancestral home was Runan Xiyang, although it was the same as the Runan Yuan family, it had been staying in Luoyang for several generations, but there was also a branch in Xiyang City, which specialized in taking care of the graves in the clan...... That's right, what Zhang Ji said is exactly the joke of 'Lu Lang is poor' that he heard from the clansmen! Naturally, we have the obligation to spread the good things in our hometown.

"Lu Lang is poor, Lu Lang is poor?" Zhang Ji stroked his palms and laughed. "It is worthy of Wen Huangong's high feet!"

Liu Kuan smiled embarrassedly: "This Gongsun Xun is really good, but Dasi Nong doesn't know, a few days ago, when Lu Zigan returned to Beijing, the first thing he did was that I robbed him of his students, so he asked this Gongsun Xun back." Now among the three brothers, the eldest brother Gongsun Chan is by my side, while the younger brother Gongsun Xun and his younger brother Gongsun Yue are by Lu Zigan's side...... With such a demeanor, I am afraid that Lu Zigan has more teachings. ”

"Let's not talk about that." Henan Yin Zhuye, who was sitting at the end, suddenly interjected and asked. "Dare to ask Liu Gong, what is the background of this grandson brother? I haven't heard of a family of scholars who have a surname Gongsun, right? ”

"There is only one famous family of the Gongsun clan, and the main branch now lives in western Liaoning, and there are branches and leaves distributed along the Bohai counties...... This family, although it is also a famous family of 2,000 stones, but it originated in the border county and often served as a military officer, not by the scriptures. Too often Liu Yi is knowledgeable, but he told the origin of these three brothers.

"I see." Zhu Ye was almost instantly disinterested after hearing that he was not good at the scriptures, in his opinion, people who are not from a family of scripture are all inferior people, and it is not enough to talk about them.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ji, the great Si Nong, sighed slightly when he heard this: "Liaoxi is a throat land, and the Gongsun family has lived in it for a long time, and the foundation is deep...... I mean, since this clan is known for its military strength, and these three brothers are all Yicai, you might as well take care of it, maybe there will be a 'place for use' in the future! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone changed color.

"Ahem!" When Chao Sikong Xu Xun immediately coughed. "Da Si Nong said cautiously, I am afraid that there is a suspicion of forming a party when this word is spread, and the matter of the party is right in front of you, don't make a mistake!"

Zhang Ji, Zhu Ye and others were so frightened that they immediately kept silent, and many others also sneered.

Unexpectedly, Xu Xun's words annoyed another big man present - it was the master of this room, Guanglu Doctor Yang Ci!

I saw that this Yang Ci raised his eyebrows, and asked with a strong angry temperament: "Gong Xu, this is also a party, and that is also a party...... Bringing a few juniors who have apprenticed to the teacher is also a party? If we say it in this way, if you and I meet today, is there also a suspicion of forming a party? ”

Xu Xun raised his eyebrows, but he simply said: "I really have this concern, I just don't want to come here!" ”

"Xu Jishi!" At this moment, Yang Ci finally had a complete seizure. "Your Runan Xu clan is also the top famous family in the world, and you have been a princess for generations, why did you have a despicable person who attached to the eunuch in your generation?! Don't think I don't know who you got this commonplace, aren't you afraid of the ridicule of the world? ”

"I have won the position of the three princes by my own ability, who are you afraid of laughing at?" Xu Xun stalked his neck, without the slightest intention of giving in. "Isn't Yang Gong's eyes hot? That being the case, it is better to ask a few witches at home to curse the chaos in this world, and when the time comes, a few of us will be convicted, and with Yang Gong's family background, you can naturally make up for it! ”

As soon as these words came out, not to mention that all the Qingzi nobles present looked sideways, then Yang Biao and a group of Yang family disciples blushed even more, if they didn't care about the other party's position as the third prince, they were afraid that they would rush up and beat people in the next moment.

"That's it." However, after hearing this, Yang Ci, who should have been the most angry, sighed instead, and immediately waved his hand at the other party. "The Tao is not the same, Xu Jishi, you are attached to the eunuch, it is a taboo for scholars, even your nephew Xu Shao is unwilling to accept your recruitment, why should I have fellowship with people like you? I shouldn't have invited you today, please go back! ”

Xu Xun didn't say anything, got up directly, and was about to brush his sleeves away.

"That's right." Yang Ci suddenly said again. "As for the matter of forming a party, if you think that we are forming a party, you might as well go back and tell those regular servants in the palace, I, Yang Ci, are naturally waiting here."

Xu Xun sneered when he heard this: "Okay, aren't you hypocrites gathered together to discuss how to suppress the ancient texts of the Kanto region, and do this party to fight against differences, and you are embarrassed to say that you are not a party?" But don't worry, I, Xu Jishi, am different from you, I am a virtuous person, and I will never make an act of informing, although you are ugly here! ”

After that, this Xu Xun didn't care about the rest of the people who changed color one by one, and went straight away.

After this trouble, the banquet inevitably became a little embarrassing, but seeing Liu Kuan taking the opportunity to pour himself glass after cup of wine there, Yang Ci, who was afraid that the other party would get drunk, finally couldn't help but clarify the topic.

"Gong Liu! Wen Huangong! Yang Ci shouted at the other party. I haven't asked you yet, what's going on with the joint letter, and why is it different from what we discussed before? ”

"Here's how it goes." Liu Kuan put down his wine glass and explained calmly. "After I talked to you that day, as soon as I left Nangong, I went straight to the Qi clan to find Lu Zhi. After arriving at the place, because of the hot weather, and my student named Gongsun Xun's family was very rich, I prepared a lot of cold wine in the deep well...... Well, I'm greedy for a cup for a while, so I inevitably drink more. Then he went to talk to Lu Zigan about it drunk, and he got drunk in the middle, and when he woke up, it was already the second day. Finally, when I returned to Luoyang City, Cai Yong suddenly came to tell me that he had sent the letter to me on my orders, and before I could ask clearly, His Majesty's commendation would come. Then today, I originally wanted to ask Cai Yong and a few of my protΓ©gΓ©s about this matter, but it turned out that Dr. Guanglu, your invitation arrived......"

This remark made everyone stunned.

"In other words, you didn't read this book?" Yang Ci was stunned for a long time before he felt a little taste.

"It's hard to say, it's ...... There is no need to do it! Liu Kuan said thoughtfully. I remember that when I was not drunk before, many cronies and children came to me and asked me and Lu Zigan to turn their rivalry into jade silk in this ancient and modern literary matter, and I should come down at that time. Later, he was drunk, and he didn't remember whether he promised Lu Zi to do this during the negotiation...... After all, I went there with a ribbon, maybe I nodded when I was writing that day, maybe I just drank too much and don't remember...... Think about it, Lu Zigan wouldn't have done such a thing as counterfeit book piracy, right? ”

The crowd became more and more speechless.

"Gong Liu!" Finally, Yang Biao, who was standing on the side, couldn't help it. "What do you have to do to serve the world?"

Yang Biao is in his thirties this year, in fact, he is only younger than Lu Zhi, and everyone doesn't regard him as a junior, but because his father Yang Ci is here, he is just allowed to stand.

"Wen Xian (Yang Biaozi)," Liu Kuan glanced at the other party without being anxious or annoyed. "This is unnecessary, and there is no need to obey the world...... It's already happened, and the so-called wood is done. Now the question is, do I still have to tell Your Majesty that the statement is fake, please take back the commendation? Or, can I still say that someone Lu Zigan stole my silver seal and made a fake book without evidence? Besides, this matter is still unwarranted after all, and it is really possible that I nodded in approval that day, but I don't remember because of the wine...... It is said that the wine of that day does have a taste, and for the first time in my life, I drank it so freely, the so-called 'three bowls are not enough'......"

Whether it was Yang Biao or the ministers sitting here, they were all silent.

Otherwise, what else? Get up and plug this Granny Liu's mouth?

For a long time, as the initiator of the party and the only veteran minister with the same qualifications as Liu Kuan, Yang Ci finally persuaded helplessly: "If you don't open your mouth in this matter, I'm afraid it will be a foregone conclusion......

"Dr. Guanglu's beloved son also said just now, what do you need to serve the world?" Liu Kuan shook his head again and again. "Don't mention this matter again, I definitely won't tarnish the name of a great Confucian in China for unwarranted things!"

This was expected, and Yang Ci just asked another question out of the responsibility of the convener...... In fact, it is impossible for him to slander Lu Zhi for stealing fake books because of this kind of thing.

However......

"In this case, "Mao's Poems" is engraved on the back of the stone scripture in the name of a copy, I am afraid it has become a foregone conclusion, and it is useless to say more." Yang Ci came to this conclusion by eating flies like this. However, it is still necessary to prevent Lu Zigan from taking this as an opportunity to make copies of all ancient classics behind the current monument...... This matter can not be let anymore! ”

However, what made Yang Ci feel angry and puzzled was that after he said these natural words, no one spoke out to echo them.

"Yuan Gong." Dissatisfied, Yang Ci directly named him. "The fourth generation and third duke of your family, relying on the heirloom of "Meng's Yi", don't you have anything to teach me?"

"Yang Gong." Yuan Kui, who had been silent, got up and saluted the other party. "Although my Yuan family is from a family of modern literature, my Yuan Kui's father-in-law, Ma Gong (Ma Rong), is a generation of grandmasters of ancient literature, and I am under suspicion, so it's not good to say more about this matter!"

Yang Ci looked at the other party for a long time, but he was helpless after all.

"Yang Gong," At this moment, the last of His Majesty's three emperors, that is, the Great Si Nong Zhang Ji, spoke again. "I have a word."

"Zhang Gong, please speak." Yang Ci finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the voice, and said that although this Zhang Ji was one of the three emperors like himself, he was recommended by himself and belonged to half of his own people.

"Yang Gong." Zhang Ji replied in a low voice. "With all due respect, there is a priority in this matter, and the theory of ancient and modern literature is only a dispute of ideas between scholars after all, and the chronic disease of today lies in the eunuchs! So in my opinion, this ancient text is included in the stone scripture in the form of a sub-tablet, which is not a good thing, if it can be used to collect the hearts of the people in Shandong, then the big thing can be done! ”

Yang Ci was silent again when he heard this...... After a long time, he suddenly raised his glass and drank it all, and then brushed his sleeves up: "I'm drunk, retire first." ”

Everyone was stunned, and the banquet broke up unhappily.

"It's a bunch of bastards who can't afford to work with!" As soon as he returned to his room, Yang Ci scolded. Liu Kuan was confused, and he knew all day long to pretend to be drunk and avoid the world; Yuan Kui's corpse is a vegetarian meal, like a dog guarding the household; Zhang Ji blindly talks about it, and it is useless; Zhu Ye only knows how to brag about his ancestors; The most hateful thing is that Xu Xun...... Generations of ministers actually defected to eunuchs?! They are not enough to conspire! ”

"Your Excellency." Yang Biao, who was recovered, immediately persuaded bitterly. "Don't be embarrassed by these people."

"Why don't they know how to stick together?" Yang Ci sat down on his mat dejectedly. "It's been in vain for me to ...... my hard work"

Yang Biao couldn't help but sigh: "Father, regardless of these people, they will go to the court tomorrow after all, and there must always be an explanation for how to deal with it." ”

"Mao's Poems can't be stopped." Yang Ci shook his head and said. "Lu Zigan used a good method, but if you want me to back down, you can't do it, and you have to think of an excuse to block other ancient inscriptions...... They don't want to help me, I come by myself, is there a way for my son? ”

"I did think of a way to do it just now." Yang Biao lowered his head and said thoughtfully. "But it may offend a lot of people."

"When will I, Yang Boxian, be afraid of offending people?"

"That's right, sir, think about it, in this text, there are also several legends." Yang Biao said in a low voice. "It's better to follow this "Han Poem" and "Mao Poem" as each other's wonderful strategies, choose one as the positive, and the rest as the secondary."

What do you mean? It's very simple, there are factions in today's text, such as "Spring and Autumn" in this text is divided into "Spring and Autumn Ram Biography" and "Spring and Autumn Valley Liang Biography", in this case, don't make a positive and secondary in this text, such as "The Ram Biography" engraved on the front, "Gu Liang Biography" engraved on the back...... In this case, the back of the stone scripture is filled by the present text itself, and the ancient text will not be able to squeeze in?

"What a clever plan for my son!" Yang Ci immediately opened his mouth. "This is very good, not only can the ancient text be rejected from the door, but also the source can be cleared in the present text, very good!"

Hearing his father's praise, Yang Biao rarely pinched his beard and took care of himself.

"But my son," after being excited for a while, Yang Ci glanced at his beloved son, but suddenly shook his head a little helplessly. "In the next two years, I still have to wronged you."

Yang Biao already reacted after thinking about it a little: "Father still doesn't want to let Lu Zigan go?" ”

"That's right." Yang Ci replied. "The more capable he is, the more I have to put it on the shelf, otherwise wouldn't he be overturned? Tomorrow morning, I still want to let him enter the East to study history, you still go to accompany him, let him be speechless! ”

Yang Biao pursed his mouth slightly, and then arched his hand: "My lord, it's not that I can't bear to be lonely, with my age, it doesn't hurt to go with Lu Zigan to repair history books for two years." It's just that there is still some truth in what Zhang Gong said...... Eunuchs are the henchmen of my generation! Whether it's Lu Zigan or Shandong Zhugong, everyone is a friend and not an enemy after all! ”

"How could I not understand this?" Yang Ci couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this. "But I have a reason for being a person...... Hello listen. ”

"Whoa!" Yang Biao hurriedly leaned over and bowed.

"My son," Yang Ci, who was sitting on the mat, struggled to straighten up and touch his son's shoulder. "No matter what you do, you need to be the main one!"

Yang Biao was slightly dazed.

"The so-called self-mastery does not mean that you must be in the main position, but that you must not lose your position." Yang Cili explained. "It is true that eunuchs are the great enemies of our generation, but if we let go of the ancient and modern texts as Zhang Ji said, we will attract the power of the princes of Shandong...... I ask you, even if it is done, will my generation still be able to live here forever? ”

Yang Biao was silent, and he didn't know if he had listened to it.

But said that over there, after the banquet broke up unhappily, the ministers were speechless, said goodbye to each other and went home, and Liu Kuan also returned home in his ox cart. And when he got home, he didn't mention the things that happened to the Yang family, but went to the backyard, asked the servant to put Gongsun Xun's filial piety rocking chair in the shade of the tree, and personally carried a pot of sweet wine, and continued to swim in a good way.

However, when the wine was drunk, Han Guangluxun Liu Wenhuan suddenly howled and cried, and the tears could not be stopped.

"Kuansu is good at wine, one day, when the minister returned, he drank by himself, and when the wine was drunk, he suddenly howled and cried. His son Song was at a loss, so he knelt on the ground and said, 'Why is this so, my lord?' Kuan said: "The great Han is about to die, isn't it worrying?" Song was shocked and asked, 'Why is the Han dead?' He replied: "Today, I see the Manchu Dynasty Minister, Yuan Kui's corpse is a vegetarian meal, Zhu Ye is empty, Zhang Jiqing talks about misleading the country, Yang Cigang is immoral, and Xu Xun is attached to the eunuch until the position of the third duke...... The eunuchs have been in trouble for a long time, and this generation is the pillar of the court and the pillar of the scholars, how can he not die? Song Fu asked, "In this case, the lord is the head of the clan, and the world is under Han's grace, why don't you cheer up one or two?" He said, "The world is like this, and the heart is so anxious that it is useless!" β€”"The World Speaks New Language". Elegance
