As soon as Zhong Xuan's lines of words were written, the audience immediately praised them, some praised the words well, some praised the words well, Zhong Xiang not only had good calligraphy, but also wrote very well in the rhetoric, so many people thought that these words were made by him.

Only Wang Heng and a few other people knew that these were a few words that Wang Heng said to Zheng Xuan, how did they all reach Zhong Xuan's ears?

Zhong Miao shook his head and said: "Don't you dare to be greedy for the merits of heaven for yourself, these words are made by Shuping." ”

It turned out that these words were Zheng Xuan's disciples Xu Shang and Gongsun Fang, who had asked him to preside over the printing of the book, to record the scene of Wang Heng's apprenticeship, print it into a booklet, and then let the Tongjiang business take it to various places and give it to those famous people who were profound in Confucianism.

This move is Zheng Xuan's fame for his disciple, he knows that what Wang Heng needs most now is prestige, and he didn't sue Wang Heng for doing these things. After Wang Heng heard this, he suddenly felt a strong feeling of emotion in his heart.

When everyone knew that these words were Wang Heng's answer when he replied to Zheng Xuan, "Why do you want to learn Confucianism from him", they suddenly cast a different look at this young man, Liu Yan's eyes flashed, and he nodded: "I didn't expect that Shu Pingxian's nephew is only fourteen years old, and he already has such a big spirit!" ”

Yuan Shao also praised: "The pattern of these four sentences is so big, it is really the only thing Shao has seen in this life, it can be called the four sentences of Shuping, and the people of our generation should take the four sentences of Shuping as a model!" It's really terrifying! ”

Everyone's praise made Wang Heng's face a little red, and he hurriedly said humbly: "I think we should talk more about Mr. Yuan Chang's words." Only then did everyone pay attention to Zhong Xuan's words, and Zhong Xuan smiled and said, "Shuping, then you can tell me what you think of this character." ”

Wang Heng looked at this character carefully, nodded secretly, Zhong Xuan is really a calligrapher, there is no doubt about his talent and understanding in calligraphy, he just read the line of Wang Heng's book, he can write such a very calligraphy in the style of Wang Xizhi, and already has the seven or eight points of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy.

Wang Heng praised: "The kid's sentence just now is really not wrong, Mr. Yuan Chang's word has both god and form, like a dragon in the sky, and the brushstrokes are much older and spicier than the boy's book." ”

Zhang Ji nodded slightly, he had witnessed Wang Heng's words in Wuling, although Wang Heng's font was unique, but when it came to old and spicy and mature, Zhong Xuan was more than a step higher, worthy of being a calligrapher.

Zhong Xuan smiled and said: "This is natural, after all, I have been practicing calligraphy for more than 30 years, and it is also appropriate to have more spicy brushstrokes." In fact, calligraphy is the most important talent and understanding, Shuping Xiaoyou should only practice calligraphy for a few years, right? But it has created a new body, not falling behind the predecessors, and there is already a grandmaster, and in time, it will be me, and I can only hope that Shuping Xiaoyou's back! ”

Zhong Xuan's words made a commotion in the audience, what is Zhong Xuan's identity in calligraphy? He actually said that Wang Heng's words already have the atmosphere of a grandmaster, and said that even he can only hope for him in the future, what a high evaluation is this?

Wang Heng knows his own affairs, and Zhong Miao is more praising Wang Xizhi, because what he learned is Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, and he is just standing on the shoulders of giants.

So Wang Heng hurriedly thanked him: "Mr. Yuan Chang is serious, on the way to the book, Mr. is Taishan Beidou, how dare the kid be compared with Mr.?" ”

Liu Yan said with a smile: "Shuping, you don't have to be too humble, Yuan Chang's move is certainly his reward for the backwards, and the book style you created is indeed quite impressive, and it will definitely leave a name in future generations along the way." ”

Yuan Shao laughed and said: "Brother Yuan Chang rewards the backwards, Shuping is talented, and when Shuping also becomes a master of calligraphy, today's meeting will inevitably be a good story!" ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Wang Rong smiled and raised the wine bottle and said, "For Mr. Yuan Chang's reward, drink to win!" ”

Everyone raised the bottle together and said, "Drink to win!" Then he drank the wine down.

This episode made the atmosphere of the banquet more enthusiastic, and also shortened the distance between Wang Rong and others and Liu Yan, Zhong Xuan, and Yuan Shao.

When the wine was drunk, Yuan Shao seemed to be a little drunk, and he smiled and said to Wang Rong: "Prince, this time the general has said a lot of good things in front of the saint!" ”

Wang Heng knew that this was Yuan Shao's official relationship with Wang Heng for He to come in.

Wang Rong smiled and picked up the wine bottle and said: "Please also thank the general for the good intentions of the general after going back at the beginning, if there is a chance, Rong will personally go to Luoyang to thank the general!" ”

Yuan Shao was drunk, of course he understood what Wang Heng meant, this kind of thing only needs to be pointed, he laughed and said: "Na Shao is waiting for the prince in Luoyang!" ”

Yuan Shao's heart is indeed very happy, Wang Rong needs He Jin to speak for him in the court, He Jin also needs the support of a powerful local faction like Wang Ei, and the current goal of the two sides is also the same, that is, to eradicate the eunuchs, so the two sides need each other, and cooperation will benefit both sides.

The reason why Liu Yan wanted to befriend Wang Ei was similar to Yuan Shao's purpose, which was to find a political ally, and Wang Ei was a more suitable object. Liu Yan is ambitious, he sees the current weakness of the imperial court, so he has always wanted to be released as a state pastor, but he is not completely sure to obtain Liu Hong's consent, in his opinion, as the assassin Wang Rong should have the same interests as him, so that the two have a basis for cooperation.

Recently, Wang Ei has been in the limelight, especially this time the battle of Nanyang Rebellion is amazing, and the representative he sent took the initiative to go to Luoyang to have a relationship with Liu Yan, Liu Yan naturally hit it off with him, and this time he wanted to deliberately make friends with Wang Ei.

And Zhong Xuan this time mainly likes Wang Heng's font of "Chuangzào", in addition, Wang Heng and Wang Heng's recent excellent watches also make Zhong Xuan feel that it is a good deal to befriend them.

Although Zhong Xuan was still very loyal to the Han family, he valued his family more, and he was also from the scholar family, and had the ideal of eradicating eunuchs, so he also wanted to seek a powerful political ally like Wang Rong.

In this way, everyone in the banquet had their own scheming, and in the midst of talking and laughing, a banquet ended happily.

The next day, the group embarked on the road to Zhangling to worship the emperor's tomb.

When he arrived in Xinye, Deng Zhan had returned to the team as scheduled, he entrusted the family's house to the clansmen to take care of, took his mother with him, and prepared to settle in Wuling.

Wang Rong arranged for Zhao Chou, Wang Yao and other generals to lead the army to Wuling first, and he still personally led the 1,000 elites and his own Peng subordinates to go to Zhangling with Liu Yan and others, and then catch up with the army and return to Wuling together.

Along the way, Wang Heng observed with great interest these celebrities who left their names in history, and corroborated what he observed with the records in the history books.

Liu Yan usually pays great attention to appearance, does not smile, always looks righteous and awe-inspiring, and when he speaks, he must be called the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and he also hates eunuchs and misleading the country, so he is also deeply respected by others, making it difficult for Wang Heng to associate him with the ambitious Yizhou Mu in history, so that he has to sigh, sometimes he is really a traitor.

Zhong Xuan is a humble gentleman, always maintaining the demeanor of a celebrity, joy and anger are invisible, people can't see the true thoughts in his heart, very city-like, which is closer to his image in history.

Yuan Shao is a very attractive person, he is tall, dignified, bold, very affinity, even if he is not the future generation of heroes, he has already shown the characteristics of a corporal of etiquette, it is hard to imagine that he will become as rigid and self-serving as described in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in the future, but a person who is too inflated after reaching the top may also undergo such a huge change, which is a kind of alarm for Wang Heng.

Just when Wang Rong and his entourage traveled to Caiyang, another team of people caught up with Wang Ei, and one of the leaders of this team also knew Wang Ei, who was Chen Lin, the chief bookkeeper of the general He Jin.

Chen Lin, a native of Sheyang, Guangling County, is in his early Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, and is one of the seven sons of Jian'an in the future.

For Chen Lin, Liu Yan, Zhong Xuan, and Yuan Shao are of course very familiar with each other, they saw Chen Lin in a hurry, and came quickly, knowing that there was probably something wrong with the court, but Chen Lin didn't have time to talk to them, just hurriedly greeted them, and then said to Wang Rong: "Wang Junhou, the general asked me to bring a message." ”

After Wang Rong and Chen Lin had a cold noise, Chen Lin told Wang Rong of He Jin's oral message, and it turned out that Wang Rong's letter of impeachment of Cao Yin was sent to the imperial court, and the Han Emperor Liu Hong was very angry at Cao Yin's rampant lawlessness, He Jin took the opportunity to beat a side drum on the side, and Liu Hong immediately made a will, and the division arrested Cao Yin's father and son to Luoyang for trial, and under He Jin's Jianyi, appointed Zhang Yi, a famous scholar in Beihai, as the new Wuling Taishou.

Now, another of He Jin's close confidants, the servant Shi Zhengtai, has hurried to Hanshou with this will to arrest Cao Yin's father and son.

At the same time that Zheng Tai rushed to Hanshou, He Jin also sent his own chief bookkeeper, Chen Lin, to chase after Wang Rong and his party, and told Wang Rong about the matter, so that he could prepare early.

Wang Rong listened to Chen Lin's words, and after a little silence, he immediately called Zhang Yi and asked him to rush to Hanshou to take over as the Taishou of Wuling, control the situation in Wuling County in the shortest possible time, and ordered dozens of elite cavalry to escort Zhang Yi to Wuling.

Wang Rong did not appoint Zhang Yi to a specific position at the beginning, just waiting for him to serve as the Taishou of Wuling today, and now he has really waited for this day.

Wang Heng asked Zhang Yi to wait for a while, and then said to Wang Rong: "Father, why don't you let me and General Huang go back to Hanshou together?" The reason why the Holy Lord's decree was so quick this time was because the Ten Standing Servants were caught off guard by this matter and had no time to slander the Holy Lord, so that the general could make the Holy Lord's decree immediately, resulting in a fait accompli. However, after the Ten Standing Servants reacted, they were likely to get in the way and sabotage this matter. If I go back with General Huang, I can help Zhang Yuanjun control the situation. ”

The reason why Wang Heng wanted to remind Wang Ei was because he knew Cao Yin's style of acting, he was definitely not the kind of person who was willing to sit back and wait for death, in real history, Cao Yin had a premonition that Wang Ei was going to attack him, so he forged the inscription of Qin Cha, handed it to Sun Jian, and deceived Sun Jian into killing Wang Ei, therefore, Cao Yin can be called a bold person.

If he hadn't prepared in advance this time, with just a letter from Zheng Tai, I was afraid that it would be difficult for Cao Yin to be captured, and the possibility of him resisting was quite high, after all, he still had thousands of soldiers in his hands.

Listening to Wang Heng's words, Wang Heng immediately realized that he had been a little inconsiderate just now.

Now in Wuling County, in addition to Huan Jie, all the people on his side have come to Nanyang, and there is no one who presides over the overall situation, although Zhang Yi was appointed as the Taishou of Wuling, but he is a Beihai man, and he has no foundation in Wuling County, but Cao Yin is deeply rooted in Wuling, not to mention that the Ten Standing Servants may send people to make a stumbling block, even Cao Yin himself is not without the possibility of jumping off the wall in a hurry.

In case Cao Yin refuses to sit idly by and fights with his troops, will Zhang Yi and Huan Jie be able to turn the tide with thousands of newly recruited state troops? Don't say whether they have the courage or not, just say that they have the courage, and their influence in the state soldiers is not enough, and it is difficult to overpower Cao Yin.

As soon as Wang Rong thought of Cao Yin's possible reaction, a cold sweat suddenly broke out on his body, it was really unimaginable, his family, as well as Zheng Xuan and his disciples were all in Hanshou, they would definitely be unable to escape the poison, if that kind of thing really happened, then he really regretted it!

Fortunately, my son was thoughtful and able to make a decision on the spot, giving himself the best advice. Now that I want to go to Zhangling to worship the emperor's tomb, I will definitely not be able to return to Hanshou, and only Wang Heng and Huang Zhong will go back to make me feel at ease and the most suitable.

Wang Heng is his own son, he can fully represent himself, and he now has a huge reputation in Wuling, and can quickly stabilize the situation in Wuling after Cao Yin is captured.

And Huang Zhong has great prestige among the state soldiers, and his ability has also been undoubtedly shown in this Nanyang Rebellion, he is a trustworthy general, and Cao Yin must not be his opponent.

Wang Rong nodded yes, and when he was ordering Wang Heng and Huang Zhong to accompany Zhang Yi back to Wuling, Chen Lin smiled and said, "This is Heng Gongzi?" ”

Wang Heng hurriedly saluted: "The kid is Wang Heng, Master Chen can call me Shuping!" ”

Chen Lin said with a smile: "Lin has heard of Shuping's name in Luoyang recently, and it is already like thunder, I thought that Shuping was just outstanding in writing, but I didn't expect that there was such wisdom and bravery, which is admirable!" ”

Wang Heng hurriedly humbled himself.

Chen Lin also knew that time was already tight now, and he said to Wang Heng: "This matter is very important, I won't delay Shuping!" ”

Wang Heng gave Chen Lin another salute, and then resigned Liu Yan, Zhong Xuan, and Yuan Shao, Kuai Yue said to Wang Rong: "Junhou, I will also go with Heng Gongzi, I am familiar with Zheng Gongye, if you meet on the road, there will be no misunderstanding." ”

Kuai Yue had been conquered by He Jin, so he was familiar with Zheng Tai, and his construction was indeed reasonable, dozens of people in this line were elite, and they came quickly, if there were no acquaintances, it was indeed difficult to accept Zheng Tai, Wang Rong nodded happily and agreed.

Wang Heng, together with Zhang Yi, Huang Zhong, and Kuai Yue, ordered dozens of elite guards such as Deng Zhan and Yao Gang, and Han Ji also followed silently, and the group left quickly.

Wang Heng knew that the time was pressing, so he was very anxious to fight the horses, and only camped in the field at night for a few hours, and set off on the road again in the bright sky, and the next day they caught up with Zhao Chou and Wang Yao in the south of Xiangyang.

On the morning of the third day, Wang Heng and his entourage caught up with Zheng Tai and his entourage in the south of Xiaoling County, not far from Hanshou County.

After listening to Wang Heng's analysis of the situation in Wuling, Zheng Tai also felt that the situation was urgent, so the two teams merged into one team, accelerated their speed, and headed towards Hanshou County.

When he came to the north gate of Hanshou County, Wang Heng found that the soldiers guarding the gate were still in a very loose state, and he was immediately relieved, and it seemed that they had returned in time.

The group slowed down their horses a little and rushed into the north gate of Hanshou, and the soldiers guarding the gate recognized Wang Heng and Huang Zhong, and also recognized Zheng Tai's courtiers. Why did you stab Shi Gongzi and go back first?

The county soldiers did not dare to stop it, and also helped to maintain order and make the road at the city gate smoother.

After Wang Heng and his party passed, the head of the Wu Commander shook his head and said, "Why are there so many people from Ruoyang today?" ”

If Wang Heng heard this, he would definitely be vigilant, but he was only in a hurry at this time, but he didn't hear it.

Hanshou City was still very calm, Wang Heng's heart was relieved a little, he asked Huang Zhong to escort Zheng Tai to the state soldier camp first, and he had to control thousands of state soldiers in his hands first, and with a gun, he could not panic.

Then Wang Heng took Deng Zhan and others back to the Assassin's Mansion, and the area around the Assassin's Mansion was still very calm, he completely let go of his heart, he met his mother and Zheng Xuan respectively, and didn't say anything to them, just said that he went back first, and his father and the army were still behind.

Out of the mansion, Huang Zhong had already sent a military marquis to lead five hundred soldiers to guard the Assassin's Mansion.

Wang Heng took Deng Zhan and others to quickly rush to the state soldier camp to join Huang Zhong, at this time, the remaining nearly 7,000 state soldiers were all fully armed and ready to enter the battle at any time.

Seeing Wang Heng and the others coming, Huang Zhong nodded and continued to give orders, he asked several officers to take a hundred people each to control the four city gates, and several officers took orders.

Huang Zhong also asked Zhao Hu to lead 5,000 people to monitor the military camp of the county soldiers, and no one was allowed to leave the camp. Zhao Hu also agreed, ordered 5,000 people to go, he stayed in Hanshou, and always felt that he was losing, because he didn't get a fight, but he didn't expect that when Huang Zhong returned today, he might be able to catch a fight.

Huang Zhong's orders were given in an orderly manner, showing his style of a general, at this time, decisiveness is the most important, there can be no kindness of a woman, otherwise, let Cao Yin's cronies in the county soldiers make trouble, it will cause greater turmoil.

In the end, Huang Zhong ordered the remaining 1,000 men and escorted Zheng Tai to Cao Yin's county guard mansion to deliver the decree, and if Cao Yin resisted, he was ready to attack.
