Chapter 390: Lust is inward
Li Feng's words are heart-wrenching, but they are not all lies. The books written by Zhuge Liang for Liu Chan are all imperial mental techniques, especially the "Han Feizi", which is a collection of legalists, and talks about magic and magic potential, which is completely an academic study that looks at the problem from the perspective of the emperor, and is also passed down as a representative work of imperial art in later generations.
Of course, Liu Chan has no problem reading such a book, and it is justifiable, but Wei Ba is not right to read it. Of course, it doesn't mean that you can't read it, if you read it at home, no one will say anything about you, but the book that Zhuge Liang taught Liu Chan to read, you take it and read it, which is easy to give people a handle. Although it is not as serious as Li Feng said, there is something wrong with it after all.
Secondly, Li Feng put forward a view: practice brings true knowledge. He said this sentence on the one hand to defend Li Yan, and on the other hand, to belittle Zhuge Liang. Li Yan did not learn from the scriptures, he started as a small official, that is, the so-called layman. Zhuge Liang is also not famous for his studies, but he has not experienced the tempering at the bottom, but has suddenly ascended to a high position, much like an airborne cadre in later generations, or a theoretical school born from a secretary, rather than a pragmatic person like Li Yan who was promoted step by step from a low-level cadre.
Li Yan looked down on such a person, and he no longer concealed his dissatisfaction with Zhuge Liang. The wooing of him Wei Ba was just a deployment of Li Yan's counterattack. Wei Ba believes that Li Yan will definitely not be so simple, and Li Feng will definitely set off a bigger storm in Chengdu. Of course, Zhuge Liang will not sit still, and will inevitably fight back accordingly. Nothing good will come of being caught between them yourself.
What's more, Li Yan was defeated in history, and he had no reason to wade into this troubled water. This is also the reason why he does not want to respond to Li Feng head-on. But Li Feng also gave him a warning. If Wei Ba refuses to support their father and son, someone will soon impeach him for studying imperial arts, and his heart can be punished.
The political struggle is really dangerous.
Wei Ba was alert, but he didn't quench his thirst because of choking. First, he knew very well that Li Feng's purpose was to force him to comply, but in fact, it had nothing to do with whether he read these books or not, and second, he felt that it was a pity to let go of such an opportunity, and there was no such store in this village. Practice is true, but if there is corresponding theoretical guidance. That would save a lot of detours. Saves a lot of time.
With this thought, Wei Ba came to the imperial study as always and started another day of study. As soon as he arrived at the imperial study, he saw a thick manuscript on the case. Open it and take a look. I can't help but secretly rejoice.
This is Zhuge Liang's correction of what he wrote. Just like the teachers of later generations liked to use red pens, Zhuge Liang used cinnabar, and Zhu Mo was clear. And the handwriting is neat, it is a rare manuscript. Zhuge Liang corrected in detail, not only reminding Wei Ba of some vague places, but also explaining a large paragraph, and the text of his comments was almost the same as the number of words written by Wei Ba, or slightly more.
Looking at the thick stack of manuscripts, Wei Ba was full of emotion. He read carefully word by word, carefully figured out the meaning of Zhuge Liang, and reflected each other with what he realized, like a hard student, facing the exquisite explanation of a wise tutor, both admired and maintained his own rationality.
Time passed imperceptibly in his painstaking reading.
……
Wuchang.
Sun Quan was furious, suddenly stood up, stepped in front of Fei Yi in two steps, threw the document in his hand on Fei Yi's face, and shouted: "Kong Ming, what does he want to do?" When the daughter of my grandson family can't get married, I have to give it to you? What kind of thing is Wei Ba, Gu looks up to him, it is to give Kong Ming face. Is he still pushing? Phew! I tell you, this affinity is not at odds, and you are ready to go to war. ”
Fei Yi looked at Sun Quan calmly, bent down unhurriedly, picked up the scattered documents page by page, carefully sorted them out, and slowly put them into his sleeve, then raised his head and looked at Sun Quan motionlessly: "King, have you already decided?" ”
Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he understood what Fei Yi said. He originally said that it was angry words, but when Fei Yi blocked him like this, he suddenly became angry: "Will Lone joke with you?" Of course it's decided, you go back and let Kong Ming prepare for war! As he spoke, he shouted loudly: "Call Lu Xun to come, call the envoy of Wei to come!" ”
Hu Zong and the others looked at each other, but they couldn't persuade Sun Quan in front of Fei Yi, so they had to let people go out and call, and at the same time didn't forget to tell them not to take it seriously.
Fei Yi laughed silently: "Since the king has made up his mind, then our previous covenant will be null and void." If there is no harmony, the matter of dividing the world will be forgotten, and those war horses will go down the river with the warships to confront the king. The king, the ministers said goodbye, and in the future on the battlefield zaijian. ”
With that, he bowed deeply, took a few steps back, and walked away.
Looking at Fei Yi's back, Sun Quan was stunned, speechless for a while, and then his heart burned even more vigorously as if he had poured a scoop of oil. He roared, and his voice vibrated back and forth in the hall, frightening Hu Zong and the others.
"Zhang Wen, you have done a good job of completing your mission this time!" Sun Quan roared for a while, and then saw that Zhang Wen was still standing aside, and couldn't help but grit his teeth and said, "Tell me, how should Lone reward you?" ”
Zhang Wen's face was pale, but he didn't mess up, he slowly stepped forward, bowed to the ground, and said in a deep voice: "The king, the minister's envoy is in vain, and the king is humiliated, and he can't be blamed for his death." Please let the king give his ministers a death, so that they can be rewarded and punished. ”
"Humph!" Sun Quan snorted from his nose and said nothing. He really wanted to kill Zhang Wen, but if he killed Zhang Wen for this reason, then I don't know how many people would go to the trouble of negligence, and the crime of indiscriminately killing the minister would definitely not be able to escape.
"However, before the minister takes the axe, there is a word to say, please think twice."
Sun Quan said angrily: "What else do you have a high opinion? ”
"The king thinks that our army has a chance of winning in Shu?"
Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, and his feverish brain slowly calmed down. Although his level of command is average, his understanding of the general trend is no less than that of any famous general. In the battle of Xiangyang, the Wu army lost more than 40,000, and the biggest loss was his forbidden army. If you send troops again, you can only rely on the generals' private soldiers, especially Lu Xun, even so. There are not enough troops, at most 30,000 to 40,000.
In addition to the insufficient troops, in terms of armament, the Wu army did not have any advantage. The warship of the Shu army, Jishu, is far above the Wu army, and it has a condescending advantage, presumably as soon as the battle is engaged, the Wu army's sailors will be under great pressure. If it goes ashore, the Shu army also has a clear advantage in cavalry. They occupied Guanzhong, and also inserted a foot in Longyou, and the source of war horses was more than that of Wu.
Zuihou has one more point. Sun Quan would not believe Cao Rui's words. Wu Shu fighting. Cao Rui will definitely be a fisherman and stab you when they kill you to death. It is unlikely that this knife will stab Shu Jun in the back, but only in the back of his Sun Quan.
Not to mention that once the alliance with Shu is broken, his desire to be emperor will definitely be frustrated.
At this time, a war was waged with Shu. There are many harms and no benefits.
Sun Quan glanced at Hu Zong for help. Hu Zong understood. He immediately stepped forward and saluted, "Great King." The minister thought that what Zhang Wen said was very true. Wei Ba can not know how to lift, but the king can't lose big because of small. ”
Sun Quan frowned, seeming to hesitate.
Hu Zong then admonished. talked about the benefits of the alliance with Shu and the disadvantages of dealing with Shu, praised Sun Quan and scolded Wei Ba. Sun Quan was relieved and asked Hu Zong and Zhang Wen to go to the post house together, and then negotiate with Fei Yi.
Of course Fei Yi will not really leave, before he came, Zhuge Liang had confessed that he would maintain an alliance with Dongwu as much as possible to buy time for Shu to digest Guanzhong. As far as the current situation is concerned, the biggest enemy is still Wei, the most urgent requirement is to take Longyou, Sun Quan is located in the southeast, there is no chance to attack from the back, and it can be left until Zuihou to solve it. The reason why he wants to have a hard top with Sun Quan is also because Sun Quan is unable to fight again and strive for an advantage in the next negotiations.
Things were just as he imagined, Sun Quan was hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, and he didn't dare to really start a war. However, Sun Quan was still so evil to Wei Ba, he couldn't force Wei Ba to mourn, he was unwilling, and this time he proposed to use the marriage to ask Wei Ba to go to Wu County as a member of the welcoming team.
Fei Yi pondered for a long time, and Zuihou vetoed. His reason was that Wei Ba was an unrestrained person who had never read any books, and his words were very hurtful. He has a bad temper, and once he can't talk about people, he will punch and kick him. Don't look at him as he can't charge on the battlefield, but when it comes to private fighting, he is an out-and-out mad dog. If someone is injured at that time, won't everyone be ugly? I think it's better to forget it, you can let him come to greet your relatives to show your friendship to Soochow, but others can't cross the border, at most they can only go to Yong'an. Of course, in order to show respect for Soochow, it is not enough to have Wei Ba, and the prime minister will definitely arrange for a more noble minister to greet him.
For example, the former general Li Yan, or the protector Chen Dao.
As soon as he heard these two names, Hu Zong's face immediately changed. He heard Fei Yi's resoluteness from it. This is the meaning of starting to fight if you don't agree, the former general Li Yan and the protector Chen Dao, they are all generals who command the army, according to this trend, then Wei Ba to Yong'an may not be as simple as welcoming relatives, this is another team of the Battle of Xiangyang.
Are you here to greet your relatives, or are you here to fight?
Hu Zong sank his face and asked not to be outdone: "Is Fei Jun trying to threaten us?" ”
"How can this be called a threat?" Fei Yi said with a smile: "This is our respect for Soochow." Our King Lu of the Han Dynasty greeted the princess of Wu State, what a grand family affair, without such an important minister, how can he calm the scene. ”
"Sure enough, it's a big face." Hu Zong sneered: "I don't know how many people will be in your country's welcoming team?" Twenty thousand or thirty thousand? ”
Fei Yi laughed, and he heard the nervousness in Hu Zong's seemingly unyielding words. He lightly stretched out a hand: "How can you use so much, five thousand people are enough." However, we will send a lot of ships, or your dowry will be too much for us to fit, and that will be bad. ”
Hu Zong's eyes shrank, still thinking about how to speak, Zhang Wen said lightly: "The former general is busy with affairs, I don't think I should trouble him." It is enough to have the rear general Liu Yan come to greet him. ”
Fei Yi looked at Hu Zong for a long time: "Can King Wu be satisfied?" ”
Hu Zong breathed a sigh of relief: "What Huishu said is very true, it is enough to have a queen general to welcome him." ”
"Is that enough?"
Hu Zong smiled bitterly and nodded again and again: "It's really enough." ”
Fei Yi stroked his palm and smiled: "Okay, that's it." (To be continued......)
