Chapter 1201 Chen Gong is loyal and goes north to Miyun
PS: Thank you for the generous reward of 'Black Dragon Breaker' and 'Sky Easy', thank you!
Fang Zhiwen and Lu Bu sat on the edge of the stone table in the courtyard, chatting while making tea, Fang Ying and Lu Ling were gesturing on the lawn with wooden knives, looking very leisurely under the warm spring sun.
"Zhiwen, let's talk about it, what news."
Fang Zhiwen glanced at Lu Bu, Lu Bu's face was calm, and he seemed to be mentally prepared to accept everything.
"Cao Xing and others have already boarded the ship in Baimajin, by the way, I forgot to tell you that Zhao Fu went out of the Bohai Sea along the Yellow River and took the initiative to surrender to our army, and there is no room for him to live on the Yellow River."
Lu Bu was silent for a while, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Zhao Fu is a smart person, on the water, who dares to compete with Youzhou now, so the sooner he surrenders, the higher his status." ”
"Hehe, maybe, but I heard that Zhao Fu is very dissatisfied with Yuan Shao."
"A little, Zhao Fu and Han Fu still have a deep relationship, and now that Han Fu has fallen to Cao Cao, I just think it's strange, why didn't he follow Cao Cao?"
"Cao Cao will not reuse Han Fu, if Zhao Fu goes, he will only have a conflict with Cao Cao, presumably he himself understands this."
"Well, anyway, his choice is still very wise, it's just his family"
"I'll ask Cao Cao for it."
Lu Bu nodded, presumably Cao Cao would not be this matter, otherwise the loss would be great.
"Zhiwen, what do you think of Cao Cao. Why don't you do your best to contain him? After all, behind him is the Japanese people agitating. ”
"Hehe, Cao Cao is a person who eats people and does not spit out bones, and the Japanese are also the masters of being eaten. Even if Cao Cao can dominate the Central Plains, he will not easily move Youzhou and Jiangdong, so the idea of the Japanese people is doomed to failure, and it is they who seek skin with the tiger. ”
"But Cao Cao is very ambitious and patient, and he will become Zhiwen's opponent in the future. Why don't you eliminate it sooner, don't tell me it's to have a good opponent or something, you're not that kind of person at all. ”
"Huh. You've seen through it! It's actually very simple, because I need Cao Cao 1
Lu Bu was stunned, looked at Fang Zhiwen in amazement, and asked in disbelief, "Need Cao Cao?" ”
"Yes. Cao Cao is needed. Cao Cao's background is not very good, so his view of the world is different from Yuan Shao and Liu Bei, and it is also different from Feng Xian, you see that his eclectic method of employing people is actually destroying the old family system and establishing a new system of power, in this regard, his goal is the same as mine. ”
"Wait. Why did you have to destroy the old aristocratic system, I have wanted to ask this for a long time. ”
"Because the old system imprisoned a country's cycle of rise and fall. Without this cycle, the country will decay due to the lack of fresh blood, just like the previous rebellion of Wang Mang and Dong Zhuo, in fact, its internal factor is the challenge of the new generation of people who cannot rise to become a new magnate below to challenge the old family. Therefore, if you want to form a cycle, you must break the original clan structure, and the easiest way to break this structure is war, as long as the old nobles are eliminated, hehe. ”
Fang Zhiwen smiled softly, but his eyes were clear and deep, and Lu Bu also heard the call sign and blood from that indifferent description, this is change!
"However, the new aristocracy will also become the old aristocracy."
"That's right, I don't know what others think, the system we established in Youzhou is to prevent this from happening."
"System? Land policy? ”
"Yes, in fact, all the systems revolve around maintaining this land policy, as long as the land is not annexed, the people can have a basis for survival, the people can survive, they can grow up through learning and accumulation, and the growth of the new generation will involve business, and there is the distribution of power, so everything naturally forms a new system around the land policy."
Lu Bu thought for a while, shook his head and sighed: "I can't understand it, this is too complicated, Zhiwen's vision and courage can be compared to very people." Therefore, you need Cao Cao, or rather, war, to liberate the lands that have been held in the hands of the nobility? ”
"Yes, of course, if there is no war, I will not provoke a war, and if there is, of course I will add fire."
"Don't provoke a war? What if the Central Plains were unified by me, or by people like Liu Bei who supported the old aristocracy? ”
"Hehe, Fengxian, the old aristocracy is already rotten, and war will break out again soon."
Lu Bu was shocked, then looked at Fang Zhiwen, and asked a little incredulously: "But this will soon be ten years, eight years, or decades?" ”
"It doesn't matter, then leave it to the next generation to solve the problem."
Lu Bu looked at Fang Zhiwen, shook his head and sighed: "Zhiwen, Zhiwen, who else in this world has such a mind as you1."
"Hehe, it's a lot, you see the people around me, aren't they all people with such minds1
Lu Bu's eyes lit up and he nodded yes.
"Okay, Zhiwen won't go around in circles, let's talk about your latest news."
Fang Zhiwen grinned and said: "The latest news is that the Frustrated Legion has announced that it will accept Cao Cao's reorganization, and none of the generals, including Wei Xu and Zhang Xun, have been promoted, and a copy of the edict has been delivered." ”
Lu Bu was slightly stunned and nodded: "Fu Zhu has never served me, he is loyal to the imperial court, as for Zhang Xun, needless to say, although Wei Xu is a family relative, but he often blames me for not taking care of him, maybe he has long been upset, or not, they have all chosen the path they want to take, no matter how they choose, it is their power1."
"Don't you feel lost?"
"Haha, I'm not that petty." Lu Bu looked up at the two girls who were chasing on the grass, and said with a smile: "If you are free today, do you want to pass both hands 1."
"Oh, yes, but don't use me as a punching bag1
"Why not1
Pang Yuan quietly went to see Chen Gong and Chen Qun, the three of them were all smart people, and many words were needless to say.
Pang Yuan carefully told the two of them everything that happened in Dingtao. As for the truth hidden behind the matter, Pang Yuan didn't say a word, believing that with the intelligence of these two people, they would naturally be able to draw their own conclusions, and Pang Yuan didn't bother to say it, and if he said too much, he seemed to be too obsessed.
Chen Gong frowned and thought about this silently, while Chen Qun held the tea cup and looked at the tea stalk that was floating and sinking. The room was quiet, with the sound of drums coming from the city walls in the distance and the hooves of horses on the streets. Obviously, Zhang Fei began to make noise outside the city again.
"Huge Man"
"I'm not an adult anymore, but I don't dare to be, hehe."
"Mr. Pang. Are you here to persuade us to surrender to Liu Bei? ”
Chen Gong doesn't go around in circles. Spread things out directly and said, everyone understands people, so why waste time by going around and going around.
"Exactly, now that Dingtao has returned to Cao Cao, the three points of the Central Plains are already certain, and the future will be a battle between these three families, I will not throw myself to Cao Cao, he has too much blood of his own brothers on his hands."
Chen Gong sneered: "It's Cao Cao's side that doesn't have room for you to show." ”
Pang Yuan smiled. does not refute it, this thick black Pang Yuan still has it.
"Liu Bei's talent is not as prosperous as Cao Cao. Therefore, Mr. Pang can show his strengths more when he goes to Liu Bei's side, and Liu Bei's surname is Liu, so if he can't say it, he will become the Son of Heaven! I'm not wrong1
"Yes, that's all true1
"Mr. Pang felt that he would not be taken seriously if he passed empty-handed, so he wanted to dedicate Chen Liu Bei as a ladder for his own advancement, and this is not wrong1
"Yes, it's not just mine, it's also two, and General Hou Cheng's."
"Hou Cheng? Hehe, he may be all the way with Mr. Pang, but he really doesn't dare to admit it. ”
"Public station 1
"Needless to say, although I, Chen Gongtai, am not a loyal and righteous person, I also know that the gentleman is a promise, the lord is willing to trust me, and I even promised the lord Sasuke to him, and I want to fulfill this promise."
"But, but Lu Bu has now joined Miyun"
"It doesn't matter, I'll go and be a Peng official for him, presumably with the mind of General Zhengbei, he will definitely reuse the lord, no, reuse General Lu. But it won't block your financial path in the future, Yi Zhi can, the only condition is to let me go, as for Changwen, whether you plan to follow the Son of Heaven to the south, or be a colleague with Mr. Pang, follow you. ”
Chen Gong said lightly, neither accusing Pang Yuan nor feeling anything for his fate, and after finishing speaking, he got up and prepared to leave.
Chen Qun put down the teacup and said loudly: "Don't be in a hurry with the public station, you are not talented, I am willing to be a companion with the public station, and there is a person who can talk and relieve boredom on the journey." ”
Chen Gong looked at Chen Qun and said with a smile: "You have thought clearly, this time, maybe the glory, wealth, and high-ranking officials will be gone1."
"Naturally, I want to bare the lintel, but isn't it the same everywhere, not to mention that I heard that Youzhou is politically clear, no matter where you are born, you will only talk about virtue and talent, and you will not bury talents, and you are still young at the next age, and you also want to go to have a good time1
"Hehe, to be honest, in Youzhou, maybe you must be able to give full play to Changwen's talents here."
Pang Yuan said with a smile, and the three of them looked at each other and smiled dumbly.
"In this case, Mr. Pang will go to negotiate with Liu Bei, as long as I and my family are allowed to go out of the city, this Chen Liu will give up, presumably General Hou Cheng is also happy to see it."
"The two of you don't have to go out of the city, just go to the Zhen family firm in the city, they will naturally arrange everything1
"That's right, Changwen, go together?"
"Go with 1
The long convoy went out of the north gate of Chen Liu, slowly moving towards the direction of Changyuan, through the window of the carriage, Chen Gong could see the city wall that was slowly retreating, that was the city he had held on to bloodily, and now it was fluttering Liu Bei's banner, Chen Qun also looked at the city he was familiar with with emotion, this is the city he worked hard to build, and there must be feelings.
"Gongtai, I don't know if I will have the opportunity to see Chen Liucheng again in this life?"
Chen Gong squinted his eyes and thought seriously for a while, then said with a smile: "Maybe, who knows, the so-called providence is unpredictable1."
Chen Qun also smiled: "Yes." ”
"Changwen, are you really optimistic about the development of Youzhou?"
"Perhaps, Gongtai has decided to continue to follow General Lu?"
"Naturally, a gentleman's promise is as heavy as Mount Tai."
Chen Qun smiled, and turned his gaze to Chen Liucheng, Chen Gong also looked at it, Chen Liucheng was getting farther and farther away! To be continued...
