Chapter 218: Beihua Six Uniques
"Is it absolutely impossible in the East?" Liu Tai smiled faintly, the best of the six uniques, it is rumored that it comes from the name of this Dongfang Jue, Dongfang Jue's ability is not only famous in Beijiang University, but also among the bureaucrats in Beijiang, it is also famous, and even Huang Chengyan, vice president of Beijiang University, has mentioned Liu Tai many times, and he is full of praise for a grandson, and even has the idea of inheriting the mantle.
"Exactly" Gongsun Ce nodded, didn't say anything, Gongsun Ce believed that Liu Tai was more in the situation of Dongfang Jue than himself, so why should he say more?
"There is one thing General Ben doesn't understand, before the Second Northern Expedition Army set out, you privately mentioned to your classmates that Wuheng would lose this battle, and you also said that the Gongsun family's hegemony in the Northeast would also be lost, since you know that General Ben's real intention is the Northeast, why don't you tell the family? Don't talk to General Ben about discord with the family, this set of General Ben doesn't believe. Liu Tai said with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were extremely gloomy.
It's okay that Gongsun Ce doesn't have any ability, after all, there are more people in the Gongsun family, and there is not much waste for him, and there is not much waste for him, but if Gongsun Ce is really as rumored to be extremely accomplished in military affairs, and even has the ability to predict the future, Liu Tai can't help but pay attention to it, after all, the Gongsun family is destined to be his enemy in the future, and he must not ignore any opponent who may become a strong enemy.
"Because the Shenhou does not allow the existence of the Gongsun family, let alone the second force outside the Shenhou in the north, the Gongsun family is a chess piece buried by the Yuan family in the northeast, this matter is known to everyone, the discord between the Shenhou and the Yuan family is also known to the world, it can be seen that the Shenhou wants to go north to Wuheng is fake, and it is true to capture Liaodong." When he said this, Gongsun Ce paused, glanced at Liu Tai, and found that Liu Tai had no expression.
Shaking his head, Gongsun Ce knew that his answer did not satisfy Liu Tai, and continued, "Shenhou, please think, before Shenhou's northern expedition, the regular army of various counties in northern Xinjiang was frequently mobilized, and even many new faces appeared in Huacheng, although the matter of changing guards has always been since Shenhou took power, but it has never been so frequent, as long as anyone can see a clue, but unfortunately, the student is a person with a heart, and he is also very fond of military affairs. It is a full 500,000 army, which can be said to have drained the soldiers and horses of the major states and counties in northern Xinjiang, does it take 500,000 troops to deal with Wuheng? With Shenhou's record, I'm afraid it's more than 200,000. ”
"You have so much confidence in General Ben?" A faint smile hung on the corner of Liu Tai's mouth, interrupting Gongsun Ce's words and saying.
"Yes, because the students see that the Shenhou is really a male lord who is difficult to produce in five hundred years, as the saying goes, many heroes become troubled times, and heroes are created when the troubled times arise, and Uncle Gongsun Du is just a temporary hero, it is impossible to be an enemy of Shenhou, as long as Shenhou sets his sights on the northeast, it is when the Gongsun family regime disintegrates, in this case, why should students lie in this troubled water?" Gongsun Ce had a rare smile on his face, and said loudly to Liu Tai.
"Can you see troubled times??" Liu Tai didn't care about Gongsun Ce's boasting, but frowned and asked lightly.
"Troubled times??" Gongsun Ce disdainned, touched his jaw, and said with a full heart: "Students can also see that the opposite must be the Yellow Sect, more than a year, less than half a year, the rebellion of the Yellow Sect will be able to sweep the world, and then the heroes will rise up and quell the chaos, and the trend of separating the states and counties is unavoidable, Your Majesty will return to the sky, and the heroes will mess with power, and the world will fall apart!" ”
Liu Tai was slightly stunned, this insight, even if Xi Zhicai and others are slightly insufficient, of course, even if the insight is strong, it does not mean that he must be capable.
"You came up with this speculation alone??" Liu Tai looked at Gongsun Ce with blazing eyes, trying to find some clues from his face.
"Ahem" Gongsun Ce's face turned red, and he said with a little embarrassment: "These world trends are discussed by students and Dongfang Senior and Senior Chen."
"Dongfang Jue, Chen Yi??" Liu Tai nodded slightly, if Gongsun Ce alone can see the trend of the world, then Liu Tai really doesn't believe it, but with Dongfang Jue and Chen Yizhi, it is a bit possible, these two people are ranked first and fourth respectively among the six peers.
According to the intelligence department, Chen Yi is the youngest grandson of Chen Fan, one of the three gentlemen, after Chen Fan was executed in prison, Zhu Zhen, who was an upright official, admired Chen Fan as a person, and could not bear to cut off his children and grandchildren, abandoned the official and smuggled Chen Fan's young grandson away from Luoyang and hid on the border of Ganling, and then Zhu Zhen's family was all executed by Emperor Ling, Zhu Zhen was arrested and beaten to death in prison, and the death did not reveal any of Chen Yi's whereabouts. Of course, the reason why he used his real name to invest in Beijiang College was because the Luoyang government revoked Chen Yi's arrest, although he couldn't put it on the table, he could still use his real name to be a person.
Liu Tai still admires Sanjun very much, but he missed the time and couldn't save the three people, but for Chen Fan's descendant Chen Yi, Liu Tai secretly paid great attention to it, and even exempted all the students from food expenses for Chen Yi alone, and sent a certain amount of money and food to the students within the credit ranking of 500 every month to encourage them, why should I do it? Because Chen Yi didn't have any money to spare, when he first invested in Beijiang University, he was almost reduced to the point of begging on the street, but fortunately, the teachers of Beijiang University were discerning and knowledgeable, otherwise he really missed such a genius.
"It is the two seniors, the students and the two seniors live together, and after getting along for a long time, they will inevitably talk about the situation in the world, and I hope that the gods will not blame the two seniors, and the students are willing to bear the consequences." Gongsun Ce nodded, and said out loud without the slightest concealment, and took the blame alone, which is very righteous.
At Beijiang University, there are strict rules that students cannot discuss the political situation or slander the court bureaucrats, but of course this is only on the surface, and the university cannot control what they want to discuss in private.
Although Beijiang University covers a large area, but the area is also limited, so it is generally a dormitory for five people, and there is no explicit provision that each class must be assigned to the same dormitory, which is determined by drawing lots, which is also to avoid students forming parties for personal gain, of course, the most important thing is that students are mixed together, and there are seniors and juniors in it, and they can discuss what they have learned with each other.
"It's okay, it's a small matter." Liu Tai shook his head and didn't say anything more about this matter, but frowned, looked at Gongsun Ce and asked, "Now that the Gongsun family has moved south, why are you still staying in the academy?" ”
The corners of Gongsun Ce's mouth brought a hint of self-deprecation, and he arched his hand at Liu Tai and said: "Shenhou, as the saying goes, water flows to a low place, and people go to a high place, although the Gongsun family has been reborn, but there will never be a place for a student, because the student is a side clan, and the main vein is in order to prevent Gongsun from seizing power in the past to do a repeat, and the defense against our side can be deep, I am afraid that no matter how knowledgeable, there will never be a place to get ahead, in this case, why should students waste what they have learned? . ”
When he said this, Gongsun Ce's eyes inevitably flashed with sadness, if the family can have its own stage, who is willing to give up the family? But the Gongsun family is too small, and the defense against Gongsun Ce is too deep, even if Gongsun Ce has the ability to reach the sky, it is impossible to get enough status in the family, and even because of his extraordinary intelligence, it may lead to death, which is the sorrow of the big family, and it is also the sorrow of the side branches of the big family.
Liu Tai frowned and nodded, he understood Gongsun Ce's suffering, took a Buddha in his hand, slowly walked to the step, knelt down, and said, "Shengyang, take a seat." ”
Gongsun Ce was stunned, a huge joy flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Thank you for the throne."
I saw Gongsun Ce come to Liu Tai opposite with a worried face, and sat down on his knees carefully, completely without the chic look he had before, because Gongsun Ce felt that Liu Tai had officially accepted himself, although he was not a subordinate, but he could get Liu Tai's affirmation, which proved that Gongsun Ce's future was not bright, and Gongsun Ce, who had always aimed to get ahead, how could he not like it?
"Heh" Seeing Gongsun Ce's nervous look, Liu Tai brought a smile on the corner of his mouth, took out two teacups, put them in front of him and in front of Gongsun Ce, lifted the simmering fragrant tea, slowly poured it into the cup, and said: "Shengyang, don't be restrained, drink a cup of tea, this tea is limited every year, only officials above the six departments of Northern Xinjiang can drink it, even if the tea is offered to the imperial court, it is a grade lower than this." ”
Gongsun Ce's face was pale, he carefully picked up the teacup, put it to his mouth and sniffed it, and said with a very happy face: "The student has long heard rumors that one or two water teas in the Shenhou Mansion are worth a thousand gold, and I didn't believe it at first, but at this time I had to believe it, this tea has a strong aroma, and before I entered it, I felt a spring fragrance rushing straight to my lungs, which made people feel more energetic, and it really deserved the name of Huaxiang." ”
Huaxiang tea, is the name of Liu Tai, meaning that Chinese tea has been passed down through the ages, flowing for eternity, the reason why Huaxiang tea is so famous, is also because of the touting of the bureaucrats in northern Xinjiang, in fact, and those famous teas in later generations, there is not much difference, well, this is only because tea is not very common in this era, the real heyday of tea is the Tang Dynasty, and there is a difference of hundreds of years.
"It's too famous, it's too famous, and when you can often taste this tea after the rising sun, maybe you won't have the feeling you have now." Liu Tai said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Hey" Gongsun Ce shook his head, sighed, and said: "Students have limited learning, and if they want to taste this tea, I'm afraid it will be more than ten years later." ”
Although it sounds very modest for more than ten years, in ancient times, some hermits who were extremely famous did not enter the ranks until half a hundred, Gongsun Ce is only twenty-four years old now, even if it is more than ten years, it is less than forty years, and he is confident that he can enter the inner circle of Northern Xinjiang in more than ten years, which shows that Gongsun Ce is still very confident in his ability.
"More than ten years? No, as long as you are loyal to General Ben, even now you can go to the Shenhou Mansion to receive Huaxiang Tea every month. Liu Tai smiled faintly, staring at Gongsun Ce with bright eyes and said.
"Now??" Gongsun Ce shook his head, feeling Liu Tai's gaze, and said bitterly: "Although the student has some reputation, but he is not capable of becoming an official, two years, at least two years later, the student is willing to serve the gods." ”
"Okay, why don't you wait for two years for the general." Liu Tai drank the tea in the cup in one gulp and said with a smile. For Liu Tai, what if Gongsun Ce is exaggerated? As the saying goes, it's a donkey or a horse, pull it out for a walk, don't you know? Now Northern Xinjiang seems to be full of talents, but Liu Tai knows that the shortage of manpower is still very strong, if it weren't for Dongfang Jue's group of students, their studies have not yet been completed, Liu Tai would have forcibly entered the middle and lower classes of Northern Xinjiang to experience.
