11 Qifeng highlights Lin Bin's fine wine, and the fragrance is drunk Zheng Xuan
Hearing this, Wang Heng suddenly interjected: "Is the district star of Changsha County such a person?" ”
Lin Bin was stunned by this Qifeng's prominent sentence, he looked at Wang Heng in a daze, and Wang Heng also stared at Lin Bin expressionlessly. After a long time, Lin Bin said: "Gongzi is really a god!" ”
This time, Lin Bin was really convinced by Wang Heng, and it was only less than two months since Wang Heng came to Jingzhou, how could Wang Heng, a teenager, know the name of Ou Xing?
Of course, Lin Bin knew Ou Xing and his people, not only did he know that he and Ou Xing were still old acquaintances, everyone was a remnant of the Han people, and it was normal for them to have some interactions, but Ou Xing was too ambitious, and Lin Bin had always disagreed with it, but it was useless for him to persuade Ou Xing.
After the Yellow Turban Rebellion last year, the vitality of the Eastern Han Dynasty was greatly damaged, and Ou Xing thought that the time had come, began to recruit troops, and contacted various barbarian cottages to start an incident together. Of course, he also contacted the Black Tiger Village, but due to Lin Bin's influence, the owner of the Black Tiger Village did not agree to Ou Xing's invitation, but made a false decision with the snake.
Although Ou Xing is ambitious, he is not stupid, so his actions are not big, and they are carried out very secretively, and this matter is very important, and the owner of the Black Tiger Village did not sue Shamoke, who is only a teenager, how can Wang Heng know about this matter?
Lin Bin asked: "Childe, forgive me for taking the liberty of this matter, is this matter told to you by the young village master?" ”
Wang Heng slowly shook his head and said, "Definitely! You don't have to worry about how I know! ”
Lin Bin was puzzled, no matter how Wang Heng knew, he was really terrible. After a long time, Lin Bin sighed: "That's it, I can't be blamed for this, I can only blame Ou Xing himself!" Zi said, if the king is not secret, he will lose his minister, if the minister is not secret, he will be **, and if he is not secret, he will be harmed! For such a big event, Ou Xing can't keep it a secret, and when he meets a hero like Gongzi, his failure is already doomed! I only hope that his ambition will not lead to the destruction of all the remnants! ”
Lin Bin gritted his teeth and bowed to Wang Heng and said, "Childe, Ou Xing is plotting to gather people to make trouble, and Lin is now complaining to Childe!" ”
Wang Heng nodded slowly and said, "Very good, please let Mr. Lin tell me the details." ”
Don't look at Wang Heng's appearance of an old god, in fact, he shouted luck in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that he had seen the name Ou Xing when he was reading books before, and after listening to Lin Bin's words, he felt that Ou Xing was very much like the kind of ambitious remnant that Lin Bin said, so it would not have been possible to produce such a good effect if he said it to test Lin Bin.
In the book, Wang Heng saw that the reason why Sun Jian went to Changsha to be the Taishou was because of the rebellion of the district star, killing the incumbent Changsha Taishou, and no one in the prefecture and county could control it.
If he could help his father clear the rebellion in advance of the District Star, then Sun Jian would not have come to Changsha to be the Taishou, and then Wang Heng would have one less biggest threat, you must know that Sun Jian's big stone has been weighing heavily on Wang Heng's heart.
Putting aside Wang Heng's thoughts, Lin Bin at this time had no luck at all, and told Wang Heng the secret of Ou Xing: "Son, Ou Xing is the owner of the largest barbarian cottage in Changsha County, Yinlong Village, his father is a remnant of the Han people, and his mother is the daughter of the former owner of Yinlong Village, so he became the owner of this village." Ou Xing has always been ambitious, his people are quite literate and martial, he has served as the owner of the Hidden Dragon Village for nearly 20 years, and has annexed more than a dozen small cottages nearby, making the Hidden Dragon Village from a medium-sized cottage to a large village with thousands of people now, and the nearby cottages are all the only ones who look ahead. Not only that, Ou Xing also has a wide range of friends with powerful landlords in Changsha County, bribing officials, and is also quite powerful among the Han people, in addition, the Zhou Dynasty of Lingling County and Guo Shi of Guiyang County are similar to Ou Xing, and they also have their own forces, they are good friends with Ou Xing, and they are also not small. ”
Wang Heng pondered for a long time, and then said to Lin Bin: "Mr. Lin, how to deal with Ou Xing, please teach me something!" ”
Lin Bin knew that now was the time for him to show himself in front of Wang Heng, he cheered up, sorted out his thoughts and said: "Childe, it is not difficult for Ou Xing to deal with it, but Childe can take advantage of the rebellion of Ou Xing to profit from it!" ”
Wang Heng said: "Oh? ”
Lin Bin had already recovered his composure at this time, and he asked with a smile: "Childe, I don't know that the king envoy has come to Jingzhou, and the eight counties of Jingzhou are too guarded, how many are willing to obey the order of the king envoy?" ”
Wang Heng was silent, Lin Bin didn't wait for Wang Heng to answer, and continued: "In my opinion, I'm afraid there is no one, right?" Jingzhou these too guards, there are few fuel-efficient lamps, if it is the previous history of the thorn, it is just that, only the right to supervise, and there is no right of military and political power, the current imperial court gives the right of the thorn history of the military and government, which encroaches on the rights of the thorn history, which one is willing to give the thorn history a piece of the pie? ”
Wang Heng couldn't help but nod secretly, it seems that this Lin Bin is indeed a talent, and he has a very clear understanding of the current shape of Jingzhou, and his analysis is also penetrating.
"Although the history of the assassin is the nominal official of the Taishou, but in fact there is no subordination, if you want to let the Taishou obey the orders of the history of the assassin, or look at the strength of the history of the assassination, now in this troubled era, with strength as the respect, the king has just arrived, and there is no strength in Jingzhou, which one is willing to obey the king's orders?"
"And this time the rebellion of the district stars is the best opportunity for Wang Zhijun to expand his strength to the four counties of Jingnan. In my opinion, the four counties of Jingnan are weak and incompetent, talk about high theories, and fight for power and profit is their strength, but they have no military talent, and they are stubborn, and it is okay to suppress the rebellion of a small group of barbarians. ”
Wang Heng said with a smile: "Mr. Lin is so confident in his father? ”
Lin Bin said: "When Wang Yuanjun pacified the Yellow Turban of Langya County, he was stubborn and stubborn, personally participated in the battle array, and made many military exploits. Although Ou Xing is ambitious and somewhat strategic, his subordinates' combat effectiveness is at most similar to that of the Yellow Turban Army, and it is not difficult to break it with the elite servants under the command of Wang Lingjun. What's more, I can deliver the news of the district star to the king, the art of war, knowing oneself and knowing the other, invincible in a hundred battles, and the defeat of the district star is a foregone conclusion! ”
Wang Heng pondered for a moment and then frowned, "Mr. Lin, can you launch it before Ou Xing and the others start an incident and exterminate them in advance?" If we wait for them to start an incident and then exterminate them, I don't know how many innocent people will be killed! ”
Lin Bin hurriedly said: "The son's heart is kind, which is the blessing of the people. But this is not allowed. Ou Xing and the others have no trace of rebellion now, if they are rashly exterminated, it will make the barbarians of the four counties sad and sad, and it will be difficult to appease the barbarians, this is one of them; Second, if you want to capture Guo Shi, Zhou Dynasty and other barbarian cottages and powerful landlords who colluded with Ou Xing, it is not easy, if you can't catch them all, there will be more barbarians to respond to the uprising, and the scale of the chaos will be greater; Third, the guards of the four counties will not welcome the king's state soldiers into the county now, and they will definitely think that the king's envoy has bad intentions; Fourth, even if he pacified the rebellion of the district star in advance, Wang Zhijun is now lacking in strength, but he is cheaper than the four county guards, and the gains outweigh the losses! If the villain with ulterior motives impeached the king and forced the king to rebel against the innocent people, it will be even more troublesome! ”
Wang Heng knows that what Lin Bin said is very reasonable, if you want to seek the greatest benefit for yourself, then you have to wait until the district star rises up, and when the situation in the four counties is out of control, Wang Heng will send troops to quell the chaos, this is the way to get twice the result with half the effort, if you want to strangle the rebellion of the district star in infancy in advance, it is indeed unrealistic, now the district star has not shown its traces, only relying on his own understanding of history and Lin Bin's accusation, it is far from enough, rashly sending troops, the biggest possibility is to cause trouble for Wang Ei, And the county guards of the four counties will not sit idly by and watch the state soldiers of the assassination history enter the county, in short, the possibility of quelling the chaos in advance is very small, and it can even be said that it is impossible.
Wang Heng suppressed his unwillingness and said to Lin Bin: "Then ask Mr. Lin to deliver the news of the district star for us, so that we can send troops in time to clear the rebellion of the district star, so that the people will suffer less!" ”
Lin Bin was overjoyed, he knew that this meant that Wang Heng had accepted him, and his status by Wang Heng's side in the future would depend on his appearance in this District Star Rebellion. He bowed down to the ground and said: "Lin Bin is willing to die for his son." ”
After Lin Bin retreated, Wang Heng pondered, this Lin Bin can be regarded as a talent, he is quite resourceful, visionary, decisive, and his analysis of the shape is also very insightful, his subordinates need such a person, but Lin Bin acts decisively and ruthlessly, and values interests more than other things, which can be seen from his unhesitating betrayal of Ou Xing, when it comes to loyalty, filial piety, righteousness and other qualities, it is far from other civil and military generals who left their names during the Three Kingdoms period, of course, such people also need to be used, If you use it well, it may play a great role, the key is to control him well, as long as he has the strength to suppress him, he will not have any second hearts.
Lin Bin came to Hanshou City on the third day, Wang Rong sent to send Wuling spring wine to his relatives and friends of several people also returned to Hanshou, the first of several people called Wang Yao, is Wang Ei's nephew, he is in his early twenties this year, familiar with poetry and books, shrewd and capable, and has practiced martial arts since childhood, good skills, when Wang Heng raised troops to ask for the yellow scarf, Wang Yao followed Wang Ei, he also won Wang Ei's trust, so this errand was handed over to him.
Wang Yao brought back a few letters, which were replies from Zheng Xuan, Wang Rong, Zhuge Jue, Zhuge Xuan and others to Wang Ei, in which they all expressed their gratitude to Wang Ei, as well as their appreciation for Wuling Spring Wine.
Wang Yao even said an interesting thing about Zheng Xuan, when he sent the wine to Zheng Xuan's residence, Zheng Xuan smelled the aroma of wine, couldn't hold it, opened a jar on the spot, and began to drink, this drink was out of control, in a moment, most of the jar of wine went down, Wang Yao stopped it too late, Zheng Xuan's family and several students didn't care, they knew that Zheng Xuan's alcohol was very large, ordinary good wine can be drunk, this wine jar is not very big, it is more than a bucket, even if the wine is stronger, it is okay to drink so little, Unexpectedly, Zheng Xuan was drunk on the spot, fell asleep, slept for a day and a night, and after he woke up, he was rude, wrote a letter by himself, and handed it to Wang Yao to bring back.
Wang Yao's words made Wang Rong, Zheng Ning, and Wang Heng all laugh, they all knew that Zheng Xuan was an informal person, and it was indeed not strange that such a thing happened to him.
Wang Rong carefully read Zheng Xuan's letter and asked Wang Yao: "Degao, Mr. Kang Cheng is back in Gaomi now?" ”
Zheng Xuan's family background is not good, because of the disaster of the party, he can't come out to be an official, so even eating is a big problem, speaking of which he has a lot of friends, but he is not willing to accept the gift of friends for no reason, so a few years ago he took his group of students to leave his hometown Gaomi, and lived in seclusion to Donglai's Buqi Nanshan to open up wasteland and farm, and taught students to read by the way.
Before Wang Ei took office, Zheng Xuan was still in Donglai, but in this letter, Zheng Xuan mentioned that he had returned to Gaomi, so Wang Ei had this question.
Wang Yao said solemnly: "Uncle, Mr. Kang Cheng has indeed returned to Gaomi!" ”
It turned out that Zheng Xuan had been cultivating in Buqi Nanshan for several years, and more and more disciples went to him, and the young people who heard his reputation and worshipped him as a teacher were also more than one day a day, to the last two years, Zheng Xuan's disciples have reached thousands of people, and the wasteland in Buqi Mountain is also limited, and the last two years have been a major drought, and the harvest is very poor, so Zheng Xuan's little grain in the past few years has also been eaten cleanly, and his disciples are basically from the poor family, and there is no food that can be taken out to subsidize the master and feed so many people, so in the last month, Zheng Xuan had run out of food, and in desperation, Zheng Xuan and his disciples could only go their separate ways, he and a dozen of the most proud disciples returned to Gaomi, while the other disciples returned to their hometowns.
Wang Yao said: "Mr. Kang Cheng's family is in a very difficult situation, the family is surrounded by walls, all rely on a few disciples who live not far away to bring some rice and grain from home, plus some neighbors respect Mr. Kang Cheng's academic character, and often give money, this can barely survive, but this is not a long-term solution." I left some money behind when I left, and I should be able to get Mr. Kangcheng to support him for a while! ”
Hearing that Zheng Xuan's situation was so embarrassing, Wang Rong and Zheng Ning's brows were wrinkled, and they also understood how Zheng Xuan could get drunk, he was afraid that he hadn't drunk for a long time, let alone a fine wine like Wu Lingchun, this time he got such a good wine, how could he not drink it?
Zheng Ning said: "How did the eldest brother's life come to be like this? ”
Wang Rong sighed: "Brother Kangcheng has many opportunities to be an official, he has been requisitioned by the state and county several times but has not succeeded, this year the general He Jin has recruited him to enter the court as an official, he still did not apply, alas! ”
After the Yellow Turban Rebellion last year, the Eastern Han Dynasty court lifted the party's shackles, and the scholars of the world can be officials again, because Zheng Xuan is famous and highly educated, the governors of the prefectures and counties are vying to recruit him as an official, but Zheng Xuan has lost confidence in the government at this time, so he has repeatedly resigned, this year, the general He Jin in order to show his own corporal Lixian, also recruited Zheng Xuan into the court as an official, Zheng Xuan still resigned, the state and county officials in order to please He Jin, coerced Zheng Xuan to enter the court, Zheng Xuan had no choice but to enter the court, He Jin treated Zheng Xuan as a guest, However, Zheng Xuan insisted on not wearing court clothes, but only met He Jin in ordinary Confucian clothes, and the next day, he returned to his seclusion.
If Zheng Xuan was willing to be an official, he would not fall into the current predicament, but would live a good life, but he disagreed with the darkness of today's government and insisted on his own discipline - for his discipline, Wang Rong still admires it very much, but now that he is a assassin, he has just tasted the taste of recruiting talents and not being able to do so, and he is very disapproving of such behavior, he thinks that real talents must contribute to the court, at least they can make the turbid officialdom a little clearer, So his mood is still very complicated, but he can't accuse Zheng Xuan of doing something wrong, he can only sigh.
Zheng Ning said: "Yes, it would be nice if the eldest brother was willing to come out and be an official." But it's come to this, and the eldest brother's temperament is like this. Can we help the big brother? ”
Wang Rong pondered for a moment and said: "I don't know if the eldest brother is willing to come to Jingzhou, if he is willing to come to Jingzhou, then it is easy to say." ”
Zheng Ning frowned and said, "With the temperament of the eldest brother, I'm afraid it's difficult." ”
Let Zheng Xuan come to Jingzhou, which means that his family will completely rely on Wang Heng to live, with Zheng Xuan's arrogance, it is difficult for him to accept.
Wang Rong said: "Yes, even if we give the eldest brother some more money, he is not willing to accept it, let him come to Jingzhou, I am afraid that it will be really difficult." But you have to give it a try, you can't watch a generation of Confucianism like Brother Kangcheng fall into poverty like this. JCDecaux, you take a day off, go to Gaomi to bring Mr. Kang Cheng's family to Jingzhou. ”
Wang Yao bowed down and responded: "No! ”
At this time, Wang Heng spoke: "Father, don't be in such a hurry, there are still ten days before Zhengdan, let Brother Yao go to Gaomi after Zhengdan in Jingzhou!" When the time comes, I will naturally have a way to make Uncle Kang Cheng willing to come to Jingzhou. ”
Zheng Ningxi said: "San Lang, do you really have a way to let your uncle Kangcheng come to Jingzhou?" ”
Wang Heng smiled and nodded: "Mother, I have a way!" ”
Wang Heng was very satisfied with Wang Heng's performance during this time, he knew that his son was not a person who liked to talk big, since he said that there was a way, he was afraid that there was really a way, so he bowed his head and said: "In this case, then Degao, you will go to Gaomi after passing the Zhengdan in Jingzhou!" ”
After Wang Heng created Wuling Spring Wine, Wang Yao was also convinced of Wang Heng's ability, so he was also convinced of Wang Heng's words, and he replied again: "No! ”
