Outside the north gate of Chengdu, ten miles long pavilion. [Ran^Text^Library] Early in the morning, the Wen Party led the officials of Shu County to wait here early, although Su Ren is no longer an official, but this time the will of the Son of Heaven has him. Su Ren was naturally also in the team to greet him.

Who are the angels? Wen Dang didn't say anything, and after asking about Chang Shi, Chang Shi smiled: "This person is amazing, he is a celebrity around His Majesty, he is deeply trusted by His Majesty, and he is also a contemporary Confucian, famous all over the world." ”

Su Ren frowned: "It is not just to commend the officials of Shu County that such an important person was sent, right?" ”

Chang Shi smiled: "That's natural, coming to Shu County is just a way, this person is going to Jiangdu, he has been appointed as the minister of Jiangdu, tsk!" I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. ”

"The prime minister is a big official, and Jiangdu is the old land of Wu, extremely vast, what's not good, as long as you don't work against the king of Jiangdu, there must be no problem!"

Chang Shi was very helpless, and glanced at Su Ren: "You!" Still too young, I don't understand a lot of things, the so-called minister of state is actually the supervisor sent by the court to the country, no matter how the minister of state does it will not have a good result, if it is in collusion with the lord of the country, the court is naturally unhappy, if you try your best to maintain the court, and in the county, what will you suffer? I don't want to know that a better house arrest, if it's not good, it's not impossible to kill! ”

It was the first time Su Ren had heard such a thing. I have seen on TV before that when the feudal country wants to rebel, the people sent by the imperial court will be killed to sacrifice the flag, but I didn't expect the feudal lord to be so arrogant and so simple to kill the prime minister.

"And going? Isn't this looking for death? ”

Chang Shi shook his head: "The king's order cannot be violated, since you have eaten this bowl of rice in the imperial court, you must have the consciousness of giving your life at any time!" ”

Su Ren smiled: "Dare to ask Senior Brother, have you ever thought of losing your life at a critical moment?" ”

Chang Shi was stunned for a moment, and stared at Su Ren for a long time. Su Ren smiled, this sounded like a joke, but seeing that Su Ren's smile was not very natural, he understood that Su Ren was laughing at himself and laughing at his actions when he was in warm water.

Chang Shi's face was ashamed: "You mean the rebellion of Liu Wen and Hou Jian, right?" ”

Su Ren smiled and nodded.

Chang Shi said: "That night, I was ready to lose my life, as long as Liu Wen and Hou Jian killed you in Laojunguan, they would immediately lead their troops to the county office, and it was difficult to protect the entire Wenshui by relying on a few public men." The more I talk about things, the worse my face becomes, and the whole person seems to fall into memories.

"As far as I know, it seems that the senior brother has packed everything at home that night and is ready to flee at any time, which kind of consciousness is this to lose his life?"

Chang Shi stretched out his hand and patted Su Ren on the head: "You don't understand!" Where can you run when the world is so big? If you can run, those ministers of the country would have run away a long time ago, why do this kind of thankless work inside and out, if you meet a lord of the country who has no ambition, it is okay, if you meet an ambitious person, then the problem is quite serious, the death is light, and the disgrace is called miserable. ”

"Therefore, often those who are appointed as ministers of state are people who dare to speak out and advise in the court, known as ministers, only such people dare to touch the tiger whiskers of the princes and kings, and can sacrifice their lives to maintain the dignity of the court at critical moments, but such people, in the end, there are not many people who can get a good death, and when they arrive in the vassal states, the lord of the country does not like them, and they will be killed if they do not do it, and the court will be suspicious if they do not do it."

"Yuan An, you should know, right?" Chang Shi enjoyed this feeling of giving Su Ren a lesson, because Su Ren behaved very well-behaved after being beaten, standing quietly with his hands down, humble and deferential.

Su Ren nodded: "It's a plan to the first emperor to kill the traitorous minister!" ”

Chang Shi smiled: "Hehehe, who said that offering a plan to kill Chao is a traitor?" Chao Cuo at the inappropriate time, inappropriately chose to target the King of Wu, dragged my Han into the war, fortunately, His Majesty discerned the pearls, first killed Chao Cuo, and sent a large army to quell the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, and Yuan Ang offered a plan to kill Chao Cuo, and went to Wu at risk, and Yuan Ang took etiquette everywhere, even if he dared to offend Zhou Bo, how could such a person be a traitor? ”

Su Ren is a little messy, one era and another era, looking at the same thing is indeed different.

"Yuan An, a person who does everything for the country, was a blind man who was idle and ignorant at the beginning, drinking all day long to protect himself, which shows that this minister of the country is not so easy to be! Whoever is the minister of state, no matter how high-spirited and daring to speak up before, as long as he reaches the position of minister of state, he will either be in the same stream with the princes and kings, or pretend to be stupid and live in a daze, and there is no third way to go. ”

"After talking about it for a long time, who is this angel?" After talking about things for a long time, Su Ren was already impatient, and stretched his neck to look at the distance of the road.

Chang Shi was helpless, and said angrily: "Guangchuan everyone Dong Zhongshu!" ”

"What?" Su Ren was surprised.

To say that others Su Ren may not know, when it comes to Dong Zhongshu, Su Ren is like thunder. Dong Zhongshu's "Three Strategies for Heaven and Man" has been studied throughout the past and the present, and for the first time, the idea of Confucianism is used to wrap the domineering concept of governing the country. It was from this time that China's feudal dynasty began to govern the world with this kind of Confucianism.

"Is that Dong Zhongshu who presented "Three Strategies of Heaven and Man" to the emperor?" Su Ren's eyes widened.

"Oh? You even know "Three Strategies for Heaven and Man"? "Chang Shi looked at Su Ren like a monster.

"Who doesn't know "Three Strategies of Heaven and Man"? Heaven and man are inducted, the monarch is divinely granted, the Kong clan is promoted, and the hundred schools are deposed; the Spring and Autumn Period is unified, and the king is respected. As soon as Su Ren's words came out, they immediately attracted the sideways glances of everyone around.

If you say that Su Ren talked about the state minister just now, it was the elders explaining to the juniors. At this time, Su Ren's summary of "Three Strategies for Heaven and Man" was completely beyond everyone's understanding.

Wen Dang couldn't help but turn his head: "What Ziheng said is very incisive, I didn't understand it so thoroughly when I heard "Three Strategies for Heaven and Man"! ”

Su Ren smiled awkwardly: "It just so happened that it happened, in fact, this "Three Strategies of Heaven and Man" is not right or wrong, I agree with the induction of heaven and man, and the divine right of kings, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven must be granted by God, managing the people for God, and Your Majesty appoints you, so the status of the people in this world is different, and the obligations and responsibilities they bear are not the same. ”

"I also agree with the statement of great unification, only if my Han sons and daughters work together, my Han will be able to revive the majesty, since the founding of the Han Dynasty, in addition to the tyranny of Qin, retreat to Western Chu, establish the Han Dynasty, look at my Han map, you will find that although the world is all owned by His Majesty, it is a pity that the princes dominate one side, the small is three or five counties, and the large is a number of counties, these princes and kings do not think about the country and the people, but also oppose the court everywhere, there are even wishful thinking, there is no subordination, if the Han is strong, the division must be removed!"

"Only by deposing the hundred schools and respecting Confucianism alone, I think it's a bit too much!" Su Ren deliberately flirted and spitted everywhere.

Wen Dang smiled: "Why? Confucianism is the code of governance, the 'Three Principles and Five Constants' integrate the righteousness of the world, and only Confucianism is the right way to govern the world! ”

Su Ren didn't speak first, but glanced at everyone, some nodded and some shook their heads. In today's Han court, the Empress Dowager Dou followed the Huang Lao doctrine, and the newly succeeded His Majesty was deeply influenced by Confucianism. The struggle between the two sides is becoming more and more tense.

"It seems inappropriate to keep this too much!" Without waiting for Su Ren to speak, someone had already stood up: "Since the founding of the country, my Han Dynasty has always followed the rule of Huang Lao's inaction, making the world rich and the people healthy. ”

The Wen Party was made a big red face, and it was difficult to refute it for a while.

Su Ren smiled: "I don't think it's right to mean that it is not to respect Confucianism, nor to respect Taoism, everything in the world is big, and it is difficult to unify the management of any kind of doctrine, so let's put it this way, Taoism does nothing to rule, but there are some things that need to be restrained, the military needs to be restrained, the respect and humility need to be restrained, and it is difficult to explain inaction. What about war? Therefore, a hundred flowers should bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend, which is what a country should look like. ”

The scene instantly fell silent, and then everyone began to discuss. This time, whether it was the people who respected Confucianism or those conservatives who respected Taoism, they all cast unkind eyes on Su Ren. Only Wen Dang was silent and looked at Su Ren.

Some people say that Su Ren is rebellious, and some people say that Su Ren is talking nonsense, in short, no one is in favor of a hundred schools of thought. It's like a person with vested interests, and suddenly you tell him that all the benefits are canceled, and you need to fight for what you want, and those people's faces are revealed. Now that Taoism has the support of the Empress Dowager and Confucianism has the support of the emperor, the people on both sides have been on the same footing.

Wen Dang patted Su Ren on the shoulder: "You really dare to speak!" This is the result only in Shu County, if it is placed elsewhere, who knows what it will be like! ”

Su Ren smiled: "I'm just talking, don't worry, teacher." ”

"Really?" Wen Dang looked at Su Ren's smiling face, and sweated in his heart.

A group of people were chattering and attacking each other, and a fast horse galloped from the distance of the official road. Behind the horses, a long black line had already appeared at the end of the official road. The pennant and the escort cavalry were mighty, dusty, and unhurried.

Wen Dang coughed and interrupted everyone's discussion: "Everyone, the angels will arrive soon, each in his place, don't make a loud noise!" ”

Su Ren hurriedly turned around and ran to the rear. He is not an official, but can only stand in the phalanx of the people. This time, His Majesty personally issued an order to praise officials at all levels in Shu County, such an honor is rare for thousands of years, and Shu County is quite well prepared. As long as all the officials who were okay were present, the gentry and merchants in the city, and even the elderly people were invited.

Su Ren stood in the first row as a leader of the merchants, and next to him was a somewhat bloated middle-aged man, who was said to be surnamed Zhuo.
