Chapter 285: Heavenly Reckoning (Medium)

"Ah,,。h "Hiss ,,。" Zhang Yi and Song Ke, as if they were being hit on the head, stumbled a few steps and almost fell down.

If both of them were rotten Confucians who only read one Analect in their lives, Liu Bowen's words would not have any impact on them, but these two were well-read and well-educated, and they both clearly remembered the decades-long turmoil at the end of the Han Dynasty, which brought disaster to China.

According to historical records, the population at the end of the Han Dynasty was as high as more than 70 million, and by the time Cao Cao cut off the northern heroes and eliminated the Yellow Turban tribes, the total population of the whole country was added up, including Liu Bei and Sun Quan, the total number was less than 7 million.

Wei Zhizhang embroidered the biography described, "It is the time when the world's household registration is reduced, and the ten cuts are one", and the Jin book is even more tragic, "Since the beginning of peace, the end of Jian'an, in the past 30 years, the surnames have been scattered, the death is slightly exhausted, and the chaos is extreme." ”

In other words, Cao Cao's "Artemisia Li Xing" said, "The white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crow for thousands of miles", which is not an exaggeration at all, but a bloody fact.

Later, although the Sima clan briefly reunited the country, the vitality of China has been completely lost in the mixture of warlords for decades, and then, it is more than 130 years of Wuhu Chaohua, slaves, Xianbei, Qian, Qiang, Di, five barbarian tribes in northern China for a long time, killing people and slaughtering cities, as if commonplace, the descendants of China, either slaves, or military food, almost extinction

It was already the twilight of spring, but the spring breeze was as cold as a knife, constantly cutting people's bone marrow, for a while, the three of them actually lost the courage to speak, and stood in the gazebo, each thinking about their hearts, shivering.

There was no order, although the decree implemented by Zhu Fozi in Huaiyang, although in a very short period of time, brought incredible prosperity to the region, but did not reflect any order, the old elder and young, the virtuous and the foolish, the noble and the lowly, the farmer and the industrialist, he intentionally or unintentionally, smashed to a pulp, and he himself, as if he had no interest in establishing a new order, did everything casually.

In this way, after today, there is no tomorrow, and if you are a monk for a day and hit the bell for a day, who can guarantee that he will not break the bell one day, and will not bring all his followers and the people under his rule into the abyss.

was thinking desolately, when a few concerned inquiries suddenly came from his ears, "Berwyn, Sanyi, Zhongwen, what's wrong with the three of you, you are all crazy, on a hot day, you actually hugged your arms and shivered." ”

"Uncle Shi, Mr. Sanyi, Zhong Wen, what's wrong with the three of you, why are you so pale."

"Ahh Zhang Yi and Song Ke realized where they were at the moment, and they all turned their heads and bowed their hands to Shi Nai'an and Robben, "Gong An, Qingyuan, I'm really ashamed, I was talking about the past and the present with Qingtian monks just now, and I accidentally got distracted, and I didn't see you come back." ”

"It's rare to talk about the past and the present, and when you talk about trembling." Shi Nai'an returned the salute with a smile, and then quickly changed the topic, "My lord heard that the three of them were coming, and he came to visit you in person, and he was waiting outside the gate at the moment, I don't know if the three of them are in the mood, so I will go out with the head of my family to have a drink." ”

"Ah, it's Zhu, is Mr. Zhu in charge?" Liu Bowen was okay, Zhang Yi and Song Ke had a cold shiver again, and stammered and asked.

Zhu Fozi personally came to the door to ask for talents, in ancient times, this is the standard of the country's gifts, Xinling Jun visited Hou Ying, Zhu Hai, but that's it, and Hou, Zhu two, after receiving such a courtesy from Xinling Jun, can only repay with death, otherwise, they will become the laughing stock of the whole world.

"Why, the three of you don't have any concerns." Yangzhou Governor Robben immediately noticed that things had changed, was stunned, and asked with a forced smile, "If you have concerns, you might as well say it clearly, maybe Luo can still help, or explain a little bit." ”

"This." Zhang Yi glanced at Robben ashamedly, so hesitant, so far, if he regrets it, he can't say it anyway, but just like this, he and his family are pressed into Zhu Chongjiu's gamble, but he is very unwilling, and he always feels that his previous decision was too hasty, and he should slow it down a little longer to see if there is another choice.

Song Ke is far younger than Zhang Yi, and he personally organized people to build the rebellion of the Great Yuan Dynasty, so he is far more cool than the latter, hesitated a little, then calmed down again, and responded loudly, "Brother Qingyuan is serious, how can Song have any concerns here, in short, it is just one life, he can die to expel the Tartars, and he will die without regrets, as for the future affairs, there will be his own descendants to take care of it, Song Mou has no time to think more at this moment." ”

"Yes." Infected by Song Ke's neat energy, Zhang Yi smiled, his face was a little bloody, "Manager Zhu treats him like this, what else does Zhang have to hesitate about, let's go, go and ask Manager Zhu for a bowl of water and wine first." ”

"Senior brother, what about you." Although Shi Nai'an was full of anger, after all, he had been outlaw on the rivers and lakes for many years and had seen many heroic characters, so he realized that the root of the problem was Liu Ji, smiled, and directly found the main owner.

Liu Bowen didn't dodge either, nodded his head, and responded with a smile, "Mr. Zhu invited him, how can Liu push back and block, let's go, let's go and meet this famous hero." ”

"So, come with me." Shi Nai'an smiled slightly, turned around, and walked straight out with everyone.

Liu Bowen and Zhang Yi and Song Ke looked at each other, followed by steps, and after a while, they came to the gate of Jixian Pavilion, raised their eyes and looked out, only to see a tall, dark-skinned, shaved head bald man, who was chatting with Lu Kun, the director of the School Bureau, standing outside the door.

"This" Liu Bowen and the others were slightly stunned, they had heard that Zhu Chongjiu was originally a butcher who killed pigs, and they didn't expect this person to be polite, but anyone who had read "Qinyuan Spring", a few people did not have some expectations in their hearts, and they always hoped to write such wonderful words.

Just when everyone was slightly stunned, Zhu Chongjiu had already walked up the steps, bowed down first, and reached the ground, "The remnants of Huaxia, the butcher of Xuzhou, didn't know that the distinguished guests were coming, and they didn't greet each other, which is really rude, rude." ”

The word remnants refers to the people left behind by the previous dynasty, or the old and the young, and the Southern Song Dynasty has been dead for more than 70 years, where are there any remnants, and Zhu Chongjiu regards himself as a remnant, and it should also be a remnant of the Great Song Dynasty, how can he use the word "Huaxia".

But after careful study, there is nothing wrong with using these two words, Zhou Shi, the people who abide by etiquette and righteousness are called, "Zhuhua, Zhuxia", and the barbarians who do not understand etiquette are called "Siyi", since he Zhu Chongjiu created the rebellion of the Great Yuan Dynasty, of course, he will no longer agree that the Mongols are also Chinese orthodoxy, so it is not impossible to claim the identity of Chinese relics.

It's just that this sentence came out of his Zhu Chongjiu's mouth, it was extremely awkward, especially when it came to the Xuzhou butcher in the back, it was definitely nondescript, as for the reversal of the clouds, the allusion was indeed appropriate, but the next sentence became a big vernacular, so that people could not believe that it came from the mouth of the same person without seeing it with their own eyes.

Fortunately, Liu Bowen reacted very quickly, and after being slightly stunned, he laughed and returned the salute, "The general's words are serious, a certain person is a person from the mountains and wilderness, who rises by chance and passes by your land, how dare he work the general"

"Senior brother is talking nonsense again." Before he could finish speaking, Shi Nai'an interrupted first, "Lord, this is my junior brother, he is a little old-fashioned, the lord must not worry about him, this is Longquan Zhang Sanyi, this is Changzhou Song Zhongwen, the three of them are all famous talents in Jiangnan." ”

"I have admired the three daimyo for a long time, but in the past, I was busy with military affairs and could not come to the door to seek advice, but I can see it today, which is enough to comfort my life." Zhu Chongjiu bowed his hand again, and saluted with a smile according to the tone in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in his memory.

This sentence was said much more smoothly than the previous sentence, and Zhang Yi, Song Ke and Liu Bowen finally relieved themselves and stepped forward to greet him again.

Although Zhu Chongjiu doesn't read much, there are Shi Nai'an on the left, Luo Guanzhong on the right, and Lu Kun, a two-legged bookcase old man behind him, is not too timid, and after a few words of greetings, he got acquainted with the three guests.

"The food in the Jixian Pavilion is quite rough, and at this moment the sea bass is in full swing, the three of you might as well go to the nearby restaurant with my lord to sit down, and everyone can talk while drinking." Robben has been with Zhu Chongjiu for a long time, and knows that his manager is not very good at talking to strangers, so he took the initiative to invite him.

"In this way, it will disturb General Zhu." Liu Bowen and Zhang Yi and Song Ke looked at each other again and nodded together.

Although the time they spent together just now was short, the three of them all realized that Zhu Fozi had read not a lot of books, and as for why he could still make a famous sentence like "Qinyuan Spring" after reading less, I am afraid that it was either a miracle, or someone did it in advance, let him memorize it, and then publicly come out to be elegant, anyway, there is not only one reckless hero who is doing this now, Zhu Chongjiu, everyone tacitly understands it.

Having said that, deep down in their hearts, the three of them still felt a little disappointed, especially Zhang Yizhang Sanyi, who was hesitating whether he should stay in Yangzhou or not.

Zhu Chongjiu is also self-aware, knowing that his protagonist's aura is not strong enough, it is impossible for the tiger body to be shocked, and the hero Haojie will bow his head, so he doesn't care too much about others testing his depth, where Zhang Yi asks questions, he responds truthfully, even if some questions are difficult to answer for a while, or they are related to the core secrets of the Huaiyang system, try to explain them, so as not to make the guests feel that they are deliberately neglecting.

In this way, Liu Bowen, Zhang Yi and Song Ke were impressed, and they each said secretly in their hearts: "Although this Zhu Chongjiu has little reading, he is also open-minded and generous, and he has a bit of the style of Henkel back then. (Note 1)

Note 1: Henkel, Han Gaozu Liu Bang, is said to be a peasant, vulgar and unliterate, but in the end, with the assistance of Xiao He Zhang Liang and others, he killed Xiang Yu, who was born in a noble family, this book is from 17k novel network, the first time to see the genuine content!
