Pei should stay in Chang'an, and yesterday he also passed the anger with Zhu Pei and some of his cronies, and everyone was shocked.

Pei Wei first questioned: "Even if the Ming Duke wants to stay in Chang'an, he should not compensate the Son of Heaven!" ”

Pei Gai smiled and replied: "Uncle, there is no one in the world, if you must abandon one of them, then it is better for me to abandon Guanzhong and abandon the Son of Heaven?" ”

Pei Wei frowned and remained silent.

You Yao persuaded him: "Ming Gong, if you have a son of heaven, you can have a righteous name......

Pei Gai interrupted him and asked with a smile: "If today's son is owned by me, or is it publicly owned?" That is, to return the old capital, is it owned by Zu Shizhi, or is it publicly owned? Then he added: "Xi Dong Zhuo has a son of heaven, so what?" ”

The so-called "worshipping the Son of Heaven to please the princes" or "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes" are all theories and may not be in line with reality. Do you think that Dong Zhuo held Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty hostage, and the princes of Guanxi were willing to listen to his orders? A few years ago, Sima Yue was in the hands of Emperor Huai of Jin, and Gou Xi, Wang Jun and others also thought that Luoyang's order was a fart; Then Sima Bao dared to isolate Longdao and almost starved the Son of Heaven to death! Then anyone may play a banner such as "Qing Jun's side" to attack the forces that hold the Son of Heaven, so do you say that the Son of Heaven is now unique to me, or is it shared with Liang Fen and other courtiers, and even the princes of the world?

Besides, in the future, the Son of Heaven will return Luo, he escaped from my hands, but can it be regarded as falling into the hands of Zu Li? Zu Ti's control over the military and politics of Henan is not as good as mine, I can't be regarded as the only son of heaven, can he be the only son of heaven?

So since the Son of Heaven is a public instrument, how much difference does it make if he stays by my side or not?

Pei Pi hurriedly said: "Ming Gong can be Cao Cao, don't be Yuan Shao!" ”

He is a member of his own family, so his words are more explicit, and he compares Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. Pei Gai still smiled at this: "Brother, how can you compare me to Yuan Shao?" Yuan Benchu was not a loyal minister, but an evil ......"

According to the records of the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", after the princes failed to fight against Dong, Yuan Shao once wanted to support Liu Yu, the pastor of Youzhou, as the emperor, so that it would be convenient to confront Dong Zhuo; He also got a jade seal, in Cao Cao's seat "raised to his elbow" - Han system, only the Son of Heaven can use the jade seal, all officials are gold, silver, iron seals, then Yuan's original heart, do not ask can know.

Pei Gai said that I would not be Yuan Shao, and then explained: "The emperor of the Han Dynasty was covered with dust, and the princes did not save him, but Wei Wu welcomed him to Luo and moved to Xu. Yuan Shao was in Ye, he didn't save him at first, and he asked the Son of Heaven to do it, yes Nai ...... "hesitated, thinking that they were all their own people, so they didn't have to avoid anything-

"If Zhao Debi and Qin beg, Zhao Ruo Fengbi, it is not about losing it, but about showing the world to fear Qin!"

At that time, Cao Cao was weak, and Yuan Shao was strong, if Yuan Shao said a word, Cao Cao would give up Emperor Han Xian, then his mistake was not to lose the treasure of the Son of Heaven, but to show the world: I am afraid of Yuan Shao, I am willing to be Yuan Shao's little brother. Comparing it to the allusion of "Lin Xiangru returned to Zhao completely" in the Warring States Period, Zhao did not bother with the treasure, not because he was reluctant to treasure goods, but because he was afraid that he would be occupied by the Qin State.

"If Qin gets Bi, and gives it to Zhao, although Zhao gets Bi, it is not more than Qin, and the people of the world should be called Qin De to Zhao!"

Now that I am more powerful than Zu Ti - at least my position is higher than him - then if I take the initiative to hand over the Son of Heaven to him, will the people of the world think that I am afraid of him? Will you think he's better than me? On the contrary, I will think that I am really thinking about the affairs of the country, and I will be kind to the city of Zuti. If the ancestor wants to betray me, isn't he afraid of being accused by a thousand people?

"Brother, although the Son of Heaven is precious, how can he be like a human heart?"

Then he added: "Yesterday, Tao Shixing played from Feng Yi, please also return to Luo." ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words - what is Tao Kan's identity and status in Pei's group, and how much attention he receives, everyone here knows, if even Tao Kan advocates returning the capital, then Pei should really have to think about it carefully.

I saw Pei Gai stand up, sighed long, and said: "Since I entered the ruling power of Chang'an, I have been burdened by state affairs day and night, and I must respect the Son of Heaven at the top, and I must be friends and ministers ......at the bottom." In fact, the words "respect" and "friend" should be replaced with "perfunctory" - "If you are bound, it is rare to be free." How can it be when Xu Fang? I don't care about the crops for a long time, I don't take care of the camp for a long time, the old farmers in the fields don't know my face, and the soldiers in the army don't know my face, how can I talk about dominating the world and expelling Hulu?! ”

Pei Gai felt that he was forced to deal with those old bureaucrats above the court and in Shangshu Province, and wasted too much time and energy, so that he could not concentrate on the great cause of enriching the country and strengthening the army, expelling the Hulu, and restoring the rivers and mountains. If this continues, I am afraid that I will become more and more alienated from the middle and lower classes, which will gradually collapse my power base, or at least become hollowed out.

Do you want to be like Sima Yue, Wang Yan and others, relying on some big families to fight the world?

"Why didn't Wei Wu stay in the past, and he got Hebei, that is, he lived in Ye? I now know Wei Wu's concerns! ”

When Cao Cao's power was still small, he took the treasure of Emperor Han Xian, but when he killed Yuan Shao, there was one in three parts of the world, and there was no one to fight against in theory, he simply went to Hebei and built Yecheng into his new base camp. Later, Guan Yu's Northern Expedition, the rangers haunted the suburbs of Xudu, Cao Cao was worried, and planned to move Emperor Han Xian to Yecheng, how did Sima Yi and Jiang Ji persuade him at that time?

"(Yu) the ban was lost by water, not lost by the war, and not damaged by the national plan, but moved the capital, which not only showed the enemy to be weak, but also made the people of Huai Wei very uneasy......"

Is there a sentence that mentions Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty? Have you ever worried that Emperor Han Xian would fall into the hands of Guan Yu? No, because at that time, it didn't matter whether Cao Cao had the Son of Heaven in his hands or not.

Pei Xuan persuaded: "The end of the public is not like when Wei Wuding was in Hebei......"

Pei Gai smiled: "If I can settle on Guanxi, as Uncle Wen Ji said, then I can control Kanto remotely, although it is not as good as Wei Wude Hebei, there is no Yuan Shao in the world." "When the time comes, who else in the world will have greater power than me? Who else can threaten me?

Then he added: "The state is ruined, because of the rebellion of the kings, and because the old system is out of date. However, if I want to change the old system, will I be willing to do it? What is it to give up, but to be free. ”

The Western Jin Dynasty was a coalition of wealthy families, and the system and laws also continued from the Han and Wei dynasties, and to be honest, there were not many changes, and it was difficult to keep up with the pace of the times. Pei Gai not only wanted to take advantage of the turmoil to weaken the power of the world, at least not to develop it into the state of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Dynasties, but also wanted to create new laws and regulations and systems according to the time and place, but he asked Pei Wei to help screen the old system in the past, but when he got Shangshu Province, there were many obstacles and it was difficult to change it......

Bureaucrats have a habit of sticking to the old ways, and more is better than less - the old system is out of date, there are still balls to kick, and if the new system goes wrong, who is it? After all, Pei Gai didn't stuff all his cronies into Shangshu Province, nor did he denounce all the old ministers, even if he was as domineering as a rope, and people were perfunctory with you, what could he do?

At least in the short term, it is pure dreaming to want to make a big change.

But what if the imperial court moves east, and Pei should stay temporarily? As soon as he is in charge of the military and political power, as long as he does not fundamentally contradict the old system, he can introduce a series of local temporary measures. I can't move the constitution, I can always change the state law, right?

When everyone heard this, they were all silent - Pei Gong was obviously prepared after careful consideration, although they still felt that this move was not very reliable, but they couldn't think of any difficult words for a while. After a long time, Pei Wei slowly shook his head and said, "Wenyue, the matter is big, and it should be considered in the long run." ”

Pei Gai said with a smile: "Zhaoqing is here today, just to think about it in the long run." ”

——————————

On the evening of the same day, Pei Shu secretly came to Pei Wei and wanted to hear the uncle's opinion again on the results of the day's discussions.

Now the Pei brothers already have a job: except for Pei Xu, who entered the curtain as a general of the chariot and cavalry; Pei Zhen and Pei Pi both had the wish to join Rong, and Pei should plan to send them to the second battalion of "Thunder" and "Qiji" to serve as battalion horses, and give them the title of general—but they have not yet made the trip; Pei Bin, Pei Xuan and Shang Shulang.

So Pei Cai's staff, Pei's surname is only Pei Wei and Pei Xu-there is also Pei Lian, who was promoted from a house slave, and Pei Du, who is about to return from the "Thunder Camp", but no one really treats them as his own family - Pei Xu has already made up his mind, if I want to be rich for a long time, in addition to my own hard work, I have to be close to Pei Wei.

Therefore, whenever there is a major event, he must come to Pei Wei for advice. Who would have thought that Pei Wei would never mention the daytime discussions, but suddenly asked him: "Ziyu, Chen Chengzuo (Chen Shou)'s "Three Kingdoms", have you ever read it?" ”

Pei Shu replied: "The "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" describes the affairs of the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, and the little nephew is only in the "Book of Wei", and he has observed its general outline. ”

Pei Wei smiled: "This book is straightforward, and it can sort out historical events and learn from the gains and losses, so it should be read through." Wen Yue must have read it, listen to what he said, not only love this book deeply, but also have evidence and hair ...... in the subtleties" In fact, Pei Cai's so-called "research evidence, hair growth" is mostly copied from Pei Songzhi of the Southern Dynasty for the "Three Kingdoms" - I don't know how many generations of nephews and grandchildren have been the results, what about the ancestors who used it first?

"I didn't have a general view of it originally, but since I entered the customs, I began to find it in the city, and ......I read it while copying it."

Pei Shu didn't understand why Pei Wei mentioned "Three Kingdoms", but he had to follow the other party's words and say, "My nephew has been taught." Uncle Jiyun once copied it, and dared to ask the little nephew to take a look. ”

Pei Wei nodded, and said that in a while, I will order someone to send my hand-copied "Three Kingdoms" to your house. Then the conversation changed: "Because I saw the second volume of the Book of Shu, Liu Bei of the Han Dynasty Zhaolie was born, and Yun ......"

This is the beginning of the endorsement, so which paragraph is it to memorize?

"The ancestor is less lonely, and he weaves mats with his mother. There is a mulberry tree on the southeast corner fence of the house, and the child is seen from afar like a small car cover, and the passers all blame this tree for being extraordinary, or it is said that it is a nobleman. When the ancestor was young, he played under the tree with all the children in the sect and said: 'I will take this feather to cover the car.' ’”

Immediately, Pei Wei lowered his voice slightly, leaned closer to Pei Xu, and said slowly: "When I read this, I laughed at the delusion of the historian, and whenever the nobles were lowly, I chose their wild words and remembered them, thinking that the heavens had already revealed them. If there is a mulberry car cover next to Liu Bei's house, he should take this car to cover the car and become a king and hegemony, then my hometown Pei Bai is more than ten zhang high and lush, and no one in the Pei family should be extremely obvious? ”

When Pei Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked.

I heard Pei Wei say again: "I used to enter the customs from the Wenyue, and when I first entered Chang'an, the army was in the east of the city'Doutian Wall', and I recalled in a trance that there were rumors circulating in the Kanto, saying: 'Where is the Son of Heaven, close to the bean field'......" Then the corners of his mouth twitched, and he looked at Pei Xu: "Isn't it ridiculous, isn't it ridiculous?" ”

Pei Shu nodded again and again, and said with the same smile: "It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, hey, hey, hey~~"
