Chapter 11: The Devil's Voice
Yes Xun is Hongfu, and he is a good debater in the world, and he has the legacy of the Warring States Period, and this matter is known to the world. Only Xun Zhilu Dao, with his own little ability to speak, is actually nothing in the future, even if he is pulled into the college student debate competition, he may not be able to get a ranking. Therefore, the premise of good argumentation must be to know the general trend and know the people's hearts, after the general trend of the world has completely changed, when facing a certain smart person who has never been recorded in history, without sufficient planning in advance, he may not be able to convince anyone.
For example, this Dong Meng in front of him, all the way back to the Anyi County Office from Wei's other business, on the way, in addition to reasoning about the case, Shixun was thinking repeatedly about how to convince Dong Meng - of course, at that time, he didn't know that Dong Meng was available, and he didn't have the idea of including him in his door, and the purpose of persuading Dong Meng was just to dig out the truth of the matter.
Yes Xun can guess the general cause and effect of the matter through reasoning, and the specific details are impossible to know after all, and Dong Meng has to admit it himself. And even if Dong Meng admitted it himself, he put the main blame on the elders of the family, and tried his best to portray himself as kind and harmless as a white rabbit - how much truth is there? How much water is injected? Yeshun can't analyze it.
However, it was Xun who saw it, and Dong Meng's heart was full of dissatisfaction with the elders in the clan. In terms of seniority, relatives and relatives, in fact, Dong Meng's status in the clan should not be so low, if he is willing to study with a little heart, how much can he pass the scriptures, maybe that day is Xun's visit, the elders will come out to entertain guests, hoping to be able to be hired as a subordinate by the county guard. Shi Xun said that what he saw that day was "rotten", and Dong Meng deeply agreed—although he could not say it explicitly. But the expression has betrayed what is in the heart. That probably means: in troubled times. What is the use of the meridian? The elders are all eye-catching, like me, but they are not favored!
Shi Xun is the best at observing words and feelings, and he grasped Dong Meng's psychology at the moment, and took advantage of the moment when Dong Meng's spirit was on the verge of collapse, and cast the bait in time - "Qing, do you want to be the master of the Dong family?" ”
Dong Meng was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but raise his head. looked at Shixun in a daze. Shi Xun made eye contact with him, and he didn't speak—Dong Meng was a smart person, and he didn't have to say a lot of things too clearly, but he talked too much, but he looked at each other.
I only heard Dong Meng stammering and asking, "How will the lord and lord deal with the Dong family if they want to be treated?" ”
Shi Xun smiled kindly: "Why do I hate the Dong family? However, the Dong family is a big surname in the county, so how can I be safe? Although, those who want to get through Yuan are all corrupt and Confucian in their families, and they have nothing to do with Gongsheng. If Gongsheng can do things in the main family, I don't have to worry about it. ”
Isn't that a great opportunity? Take advantage of this opportunity. Tear off all the old decay of the Dong family, I will help you to come to power, you will be able to vomit the depression in your chest from now on, and show your talents, and I can rest assured that the Dong family, I believe that they will no longer have anything to do with the Yuan family, this is not something that you and I can benefit from?
- Dong Meng thinks that Yes Xun thinks like this, and Shi Xun naturally hopes that the other party thinks like this. However, in fact, the purpose of Shixun was to take the opportunity to deal a big blow to the Hedong Xian clan and weaken their strength.
In his previous life, he had read a lot of time-traveling texts, and many authors liked to portray the family gate valve as a major force that dominated social public opinion, and even could dominate the development of history to a certain extent. Writing a novel must be like this, to erect a strong hostile side, to create one pressure and another of danger for the protagonist, but in real history, the family gate valve as a whole class, indeed after the Wei and Jin dynasties, until the early Tang Dynasty, has a huge amount of power, but scattered to the individual, but not more than Erer.
More importantly, in these years, no stratum, including the family, the Hanmen, and the common people, lacked sufficient class consciousness, and they were rarely able to look at social issues from a unified standpoint. This is also the main reason why Xun dared to invent printing, from the perspective of history, printing technology has reduced the cost of acquiring knowledge, so that knowledge can be popularized to a certain extent, and it is a sharp blade that shakes the foundation of the family, but in the game, few people can see clearly, so as to oppose it - besides, even if two or three bodies alone are prophets, how much storm can they set off?
Cao Cao was in Yanzhou back then, not only executing Bian Rang, but also in order to stabilize his own rule, using the power in his hands to vigorously attack the family gate lords, and later the "little overlord" Sun Ce did the same in Jiangdong - because the family refused to cooperate with outsiders out of the family's sense of superiority and local protectionism - so it was counterattacked. But even if Cao Cao has already made the family look sideways in Yanzhou, if there is no Zhang Miao and Chen Gong to take the lead, and Lu Bu does not enter Yanzhou, the families will not be able to make any big trouble. Ordinary little stumbling block, how can Cao Mengde and others be feared?
After the Wei and Jin dynasties, the family basically monopolized the senior positions in the court, that is to say, the court was controlled by the major families, so their strength could be raised to a higher level, and they could even influence the abolition of the Son of Heaven and the change of dynasty. But before the introduction of the "Nine Grades Zhongzheng System", on the whole, they could not do this - a single family could not compete with the royal power and hegemony at all, and it was difficult for more families to unify their interests.
Therefore, it is true that Shi Xun can't clean up the Dong family without real evidence, but now that he has Dong Meng in his hands and his witness, it is not difficult. Of course, the Dong family is different from other families, the ancestors are the saints of Confucianism, and they have been married to the Liu royal family for generations.
If it is the Liu family or the Wei family, then there is no scruples, and it can be eradicated. This is also the reason why the Dong family dared to blame the Wei family - there is only one Wei in the DPRK and China to help, so what is it? It's Xun who really wants to do it, and he can sweep it out in minutes.
Since you can't completely kick the Dong family with one kick, it's better to put it in your own hands - isn't Dong Meng in front of him the best gunman? Dong Meng has wisdom, ambition, resentment, and more importantly, now that he has been grabbed by his pigtails, he can't get out easily. The ministers of a dynasty are loyal and traitorous, and the same is true within a clan, and this Dong Meng is clearly a traitor, and he can attack poison poison......
"Today's chaos, the decline of the Han family, this autumn of Cheng is in danger of survival, when people with lofty ideals are working hard, and it is also a time when heroes and heroes make contributions. And although Qing has grand ambitions and raises talents to be virtuous, he is depressed by the old age of his family, and he is not allowed to show up in the world, and I really regret it......"
Shi Xun's voice was so soft and deep that Dong Meng at this moment felt as if he was in a nightmare and heard the sound of the world...... It's a pity that Buddhism has just been introduced and is not yet popular, otherwise he would have instinctively thought: Is this the voice of the devil tempting the world?
So under the guidance of Shi Xun, Dong Meng wrote down the whole process in a daze, signed his name, and pressed his fingerprint. Of course, the cause and effect, the key point, has made subtle corrections -
Dong Xun fled from Xudu last year and came to join the Dong clan in Hedong, and after the elders of the clan discussed, they hid him in their homes, and Dong Meng did not participate in the matter. The Dong family secretly communicated with Yuan Shao, and wanted Dong Xun to assassinate Taishou Shixun, that is, to seize Hedong, in order to merge the state Gaogan. Dong Meng detected the clues, that is, he secretly beheaded Dong Xun. The elders and others couldn't give the plan, but recruited another dead soldier, conspired with Xiao Wei Xiao of the Wei clan, and took the opportunity of sending oil to lure out Shixun and wanted to murder him. When Dong Meng got the news, he went to rescue him in person, and took the lead to report the conspiracy in the clan......
In short, picking Dong Meng clean is not only innocent, but also meritorious. Moreover, he secretly beheaded Dong Xun before, on the one hand, he was loyal to the court, and on the other hand, he did not want to publicize the conspiracy in the clan. It's a pity that loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve since ancient times......
In the middle of the night, Zhang Ji immediately led the soldiers of Hedong County to surround Wei's own house, showing Wei Xiao's head and a copy of Dong Meng's confession. The head of the Wei family went to the county office to ask for the guilt, and he said that he was unpremeditated, which was all Wei Xiao's personal actions. Shi Xun claimed to be frightened by the assassination and refused to come out, only to make the doorman Wang Ling fight with him, and finally the Wei family pushed two young people in the clan to come out as scapegoats, and offered Tian Baiqing and grain Wanhu to be used in the county, and finally put aside the relationship for the time being.
The Dong family was not so lucky, and the next morning, Qin Yi led the county soldiers and surrounded the Dong family under the guidance of the Wenxi county order. According to Dong Meng's instructions in advance, the real Dong Xun's body was dug up and showed it. The head of the Dong family climbed the wall and asked, "The Dong family of the Taishou Desire Clan?" Qin Yilu immediately smiled coldly and replied: "The Dong family's crime has been played to the imperial court, and the three justices will be decided!" Now the only one who can make the Dong family's worship endless, is to serve in the middle! ”
The family has a wide range of fields, farms, and prosperous households, even if it is raided, it is actually difficult to catch them all, but fortunately, Shixun did not plan to uproot the Dong family. The big clan originally had countless domestic slaves and strong men, and if they really fought against each other with weapons, without thousands of soldiers and horses, they might not be able to stand down, so in order to ensure the stability of Hedong County, Shi Xun didn't really want to fight with them. If you say directly: "The sin of the Dong family, it will be a clan!" "Then there is no room for relaxation, at least there will be chaos in Wenxi County.
Therefore, Qin Yilu followed Shi Xun's instructions and left room in the answer, the Dong family still had a way to go, so naturally they didn't dare to really fight against the officials and soldiers - the big families of this year looked very good, but if there was no one in the court, they really didn't have the courage to violently resist the law. So Dong Meng returned home under the escort of dozens of Shi Xun Qu, and then the Dong family held a family meeting for one day and one night, and finally agreed that the elders all stepped down and offered one of them to take the blame, and then Dong Meng presided over the affairs of the family.
Because of his young age and low seniority, Dong Meng could not immediately take over as the head of the family, and he was temporarily succeeded by a semi-paralyzed uncle who had never been concerned about the practice of the family.
Of course, as for the farmland, money and grain that the Dong family must donate in the name of donation, it is more than three times more than Wei's...... (To be continued......)
