Chapter 16, the old man under the corridor
Shi Xun laid out the carriage and said to Gongsun Du, I understand that you took in the Yuan brothers in order to enhance your own strength, but this is not the best policy, but it is easy to bring disaster to your own family. When Gongsun Du heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and said in his heart, "You don't blame me for righteousness, but tell me about interestsβwhy do you bring disaster if you take them in?" "What do you mean?" You tell me why.
What is the righteousness? In fact, the so-called righteousness of the monarch and ministers in this feudal era is not very important to Xun himself, and he knows that Gongsun Du will not care about this kind of separatist force, and the other party only values its own interests, so we don't have to go around in circles, I will tell you about interests!
"The foundation of the Yuan family is in Jizhou, and now the imperial court has collected it. That is, in Youzhou, the wood that has been moved at the beginning, the roots are shallow and the soil is floating, and the situation is in Pingzhou? Now there are only thousands of people coerced, and the army is about to gain it, what is the benefit? "As for the remnants of the Yuan family, they are all from other places, so you may not be able to see it.
"Today, the general stayed, not for the truth, but for his name, thinking that if he holds the second Yuan, he can covet Youzhou, and if he has a Louban, he can subdue Karasuma - but Yixun knows, it is not the case." You just want to use their influence, but their influence...... Hey, hey, it's not that strong.
"Yuan Xijiu town Youzhou, and the north can not Fu Liu He, Xian Yufu, the east can not Yu Karasuma, arrest Nai's father into the state, retreat to the three counties of Yongnu, and revert to Wang Song's system - its incompetent and hopeless people, Ming. Yuan Shang is suspected of killing his father, and there are few servants of the Yuan family, and there is hope for peace? As for the building class, it is just a puppet ear, but in Karasuma, he knows that there is a problem, but he does not know that there is another, and the Yuan family is in vain. Badun is carried to a single in. Lou Ban got nothing. The general left it, what is the use? β
Let's belittle that goods first, and tell Gongsun Du that you can't enhance your own strength if you leave those wastes. Then Xun suddenly turned around and asked directly, "What is the unknown general's plan?" Want to compete for the Central Plains? Want to be the king of Liaodong for a long time? "Do you really have the ambition of the world, or do you just want to be the emperor of the Northeast for the rest of your life?
As soon as he said this, all the people in the room, not including the two maids-in-waiting, were discolored. Gongsun Duxin said, Are you really a messenger sent by the imperial court? Isn't it the Zongheng family of the Warring States Period? How dare you openly declare such a contradictory statement? How do you want me to answer? Say that you want to be in the world? Isn't that to rebel against the Han court? Said Tuwang Liaodong? That's not a courtesy. I think it's okay to think about it with my family. It's okay to talk to your cronies, no matter what kind of intention, it's not something that can be said clearly in front of people!
At the moment, I had to be vague: "Du is only for the court to guard the land, if you have to herd the countryside for a long time, it is enough to wish, and dare to hope for anything else?" "I do want to rule Liaodong not only for the rest of my life, but also for my children and grandchildren, but you can hear clearly, I want to be a "shepherd", not a "king".
Shi Xun smiled slightly: "The imperial court has entrusted Pingzhou to the general. It is for the border, and it is bordered by the sea. Goguryeo looked at the east, Fuyu, Fuwo, Sanhan, etc., and lived outside the country, and it was difficult to fix the border, and the situation was open? People and ministers are in the position of generals, and there is no one who is not jealous, and the situation is to surrender and rebel, so as to suspect the court? What is the benefit of receiving two Yuan and Lou Ban and the general? "If you want to be the emperor of Liaodong in a down-to-earth manner, then you have a large area of foreign territory to conquer, and you don't need to have any disagreements with the imperial court. Originally, with your power and status, it was enough to cause the ridicule of the division and the jealousy of the imperial court, if you take in Eryuan and Lou Ban again, do you still hope that Liaodong can be peaceful? Do you want your children and grandchildren to inherit this inheritance?
"If the general has the ambition of the sky and the map of the world, it is to collect and surrender the captives. However, in a remote corner of eastern Liaodong, the road hangs over the plains, why hope for the Central Plains? That is, if Zhao Tuo is in Guangdong and Gongsun Shu is in Shu, it is difficult to be a king for a long time, and it is difficult to be in the world? "If you have the heart to covet the world, then please put it away quickly. Liaodong is located in a remote area, thousands of mountains and rivers away from the heart of the Central Plains, and there is no such partial force in history that can win the world.
Before the words fell, I heard the young man in front of Gongsun Du ask rhetorically: "Mencius said, Shun, the people of Dongyi, King Wen, the people of Xiyi, died in the Central Plains." The place where the former Qin lived was also deserted, and finally the six countries were conquered and China was unified - who is remote and unreachable in the world? β
Gongsun Du raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Shut up!" Then he turned to Shi Xun: "This dog is also young and shallow, just lying and forgiving him." β
It seems that I guessed correctly, this is really the son of Gongsun Du, I don't know if it is Gongsun Kang or Gongsun Gong? - "What is the name of Childe?" β
"Don't dare," the other party bowed and saluted, "The kid's name is Kang, and the word is given by Zongci." β
Shi Xun nodded slightly--there is no record of Gongsun Kang's table in the history books, and today I learned that the original word "ci" must have come from the sentence "Kang Zhou Gong, so to give Lu also" in the "Book of Rites". Gongsun Du gave his son this kind of name and character, is he comparing himself to Zhou Gong, does he want his son to be a bird?
At the moment, he simply returned a salute: "If the son of Zongci has a question, he should answer it." In the past, China was small, and there was a summer residence, but it was only Yuzhou. Shun is Dongyi, which is said to have been born in Yaoxu, now in Qingzhou; King Wen is Xiyi, is said to be born in Qixia, now in Yongzhou - how far away? Ying Qin originated in the west, moved east for the king of Ping, and made him guard the Zhou Dynasty, and lived in the heart of the old Zhou - is not China? In the past, Dayu Dingding Kyushu, Shun, King Wen, and Yingqin's foundation were all in the domain, and Liaodong was thousands of miles away from Jizhou, which was Zhenhua outside. β
Boy, you even brought me up ancient history? Not to mention that I was quite interested in the history before the Qin Dynasty in my previous life, and I don't know how many monographs I have read in the past dynasties, just to say that after the rise of the "ancient history school", the superstition of the Confucian classics was completely overthrown, and although it destroyed more than it was built, it opened a new door to the study of ancient history -- it is not comparable to just reading some contradictory miscellaneous books of the Warring States period in this era.
The original so-called "China" is just a part of Henan, what Dongyi, Xidi, Nanban, Beirong, the vast majority of today, not only all in the Han realm, but also not far from the middle reaches of the Yellow River, if you want to kill Henan, how difficult can it be? But where are you now? Do you want to go to all of them? One hundred and eight thousand miles, brother!
- In fact, although Gongsun Kang was still a young man, he already had a mustache, and he was probably older than Xun Wei in appearance, so he went to the age of thirty; However, as a courtier, Xun had a relationship with his father, grandson, and grandson, so he was polite and polite, and instinctively used the tone of a lesson.
"Besides, since King Xuan of Zhou ordered Duke Zhuang to be the doctor of the Western Regions, and from the arrest of the first emperor to rule the world, how many generations have passed? Is Childe calculated? "If you want to fight for the world, you must first stand firm, and then wait for the grandson of the grandson to be born......
Gongsun Kang was speechless for him, so he had to give his hand: "The kid is ignorant, and the angel is responsible." β
Gongsun Du can't stand it. Adults are talking, children are interjecting indiscriminately, and it is true that they should be taught a lesson, and the problem is that no father will be happy to listen to others discipline his son. Anyway, I was pretending to be sick and hiding here today, and it would be reasonable for you to come in and visit the sick, and talk directly to me about national affairs in front of my sickbed. "Son, help me see off the guests!
Shi Xun originally planned to cut through the mess quickly, so he made it clear to Gongsun Du here, but the problem was that people didn't want to pay attention to him, and this belly full of arguments couldn't be sprayed anymore. In desperation, I had to give up. Gongsun Kang led Shixun out of the door, and Liu Yi and Yangyi took the first step and said that we would arrange a banquet.
It's okay if Xun Xin said it, although I can't talk to Gongsun Du more, but I can try to open a breakthrough from his son and subordinates first.
At that moment, he was introduced into the side courtyard of the mansion by Gongsun Kang, and there were maids and servants who came to serve, rinsed their mouths, cleaned their faces, took off their court clothes, changed into regular clothes, and settled their luggage at the same time. After about half a meal, Gongsun Kang came over to invite him again, saying that the banquet had been set up and the angel was invited.
Shi Xun followed Gongsun Kang all the way, this Pingzhou Mu's mansion is really big, and after only a few circles, it almost stunned Shi Xun. Seeing that after passing through a shadow wall, there was the main hall in front of him, and many people were already waiting, and suddenly, it was Xun who instinctively noticed that there seemed to be someone staring at him not far away?
Squinting at the past, I saw the cloister but no one - am I too sensitive? Or is it just a servant or something, glancing at himself and passing by? Now that I am in this mansion, before this lobby, it is the focus of the absolute focus, is it strange to be looked at a few times? Don't be nervous, relax, relax......
Yeshun didn't see it, there was indeed someone staring at him on the side of the corridor for a long time, but when Shixun glanced at him, the person immediately flashed to the back of the corridor.
This person is about the same age as Gongsun Kang, should be a few years older than Shi Xun, with good facial features, but rough skin, like a person who has been through wind and frost for a long time, and his limbs are strong, but his legs are slightly bent, which is caused by years of horseback riding. Dressed in ordinary scholar's clothes, with a sparse beard, the expression on his face was annoyed and disgusted, his eyebrows were erected, his teeth were clenched, and he said to himself: "Sure enough, it's him!" β
Opposite this person, stood Liu Yi, the favorite minister of Gongsun Du. At the moment, Liu Yi frowned slightly: "This is the envoy sent by the imperial court, and now the prime minister is straight, similar to Qing Nian's teeth, with the same name and words, and the pronunciation of the surname is also the same, the coincidence of the world has been here?" That's why Yin Qing came to see, but Yunguo was also a person. Unknown is the essence of the king? β
"This thief!" The man clenched his fists fiercely, his eyes were red, as if he was oozing blood, and he scolded when he opened his mouth, but then he felt rude, so he forced himself to endure and waved at Liu Yi: "This person is not a surname, nor is he a name, but a fake villain's name, in order to confuse the world!" β
Liu Yi was shocked when he heard this, and stretched out his hand to point afar: "Then who is Piguo?" (To be continued......)
