Chapter 42: The Great Confucianism and the Tiger Minister

Koji Yi now just wants to slap himself twice, and say in front of the Confucian, "Most of the negative hearts are scholars", isn't it a slap in the face?

Koji Yi's face was embarrassed, and he replied: "This is a matter of words, not a general reference, please ask Zheng Gonghaihan for the loss of words!" "Say goodbye.

Zheng Xuan smiled after hearing this, and said in a gentle tone: "Although these two sentences are extreme, they are extremely appropriate to the situation, concise and to the point, but they are also rare!" ”

At this time, the crowd of onlookers had dispersed, Cheng Gongying walked over quickly after dealing with the matter over there, and saluted Zheng Xuanbi respectfully before getting close, and bowed: "Jincheng Cheng Gongying meets Zheng Gongying!" ”

Zheng Xuan didn't know Cheng Gongying, but when he saw him dressed as a scribe, he smiled and nodded in response.

Lu Yi took this opportunity to hurriedly divert the topic and said: "I have always only known that Zheng Gong went out to travel, and I don't want to return home, and I can't come to visit, it's really rude, I don't know what Zheng Gong wants, if there is nothing important, I am willing to move to the government office, so that Yi can sincerely worship the religion!" ”

Zheng Xuan knew that Lu Yi was embarrassed by what happened just now, and said with a smile: "General Xie is gracious, but the old man is about to go to Xuzhou, passing by here, he was blocked by the crowd, and now the crowd has dispersed, and the old man is also going to leave!" After saying that, he gave his hand and was about to leave.

When Lu Yi heard that Zheng Xuan was going to Xuzhou, he remembered that according to historical records, Zheng Xuan stayed under a mountain in Xuzhou for five or six years in order to avoid the scourge of the Yellow Turban, and later Kong Rong invited Zheng Xuan back several times.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi's heart moved slightly, and he said: "Qingzhou is in turmoil, thieves are numerous, and Yi knows that Zheng Gong wants to be pure, so he goes to Xuzhou."

Ranyi is now stationed outside the city, not I am arrogant, Qingzhou thieves see that I dare not approach, why not stay in the city, not only to study knowledge, annotate scriptures, but also to avoid the pain of strangers in other lands, family separation, isn't it the best of both worlds? ”

After hearing this, Zheng Xuan looked at Lu Yi, and said: "Gaomi has a general, and the thief will not dare to come, the blessing of this people, but it is precisely because of the presence of the general that Gaomi is no longer pure!" After speaking, he smiled slightly.

Lu Yi's face was slightly embarrassed after hearing this, he understood the meaning of Zheng Xuan's words, and this is also a fact, he will not be willing to be mediocre, and Gao Mi will be difficult to be quiet!

Lu Yi said apologetically: "In this case, Yi Mo dare not say anything, but the way to Xuzhou is quite far, and now there are thieves everywhere, lest I disturb Zheng Gong, if you send some guards by Yi to escort all the way, I hope to answer!" ”

With Zheng Xuan's fame and influence among today's scholars, if he can gain his favor, it will be a great opportunity for Lu Yi to change his impression in the hearts of scholars.

The scholars of the Central Plains are extremely contemptuous of the children of the frontiers, Dong Zhuo, Ma Teng and others are the best examples.

If it weren't for this, Lu Yi wouldn't have been so worried about the strategists before, but fortunately, now there is Cheng Gongying!

Zheng Xuan's face finally changed after hearing this, and he hesitated slightly, obviously thinking.

In fact, Zheng Xuan has been worried about the safety along the road, not because Zheng Xuan is afraid of death, but because he is worried about the scriptures and classics he carries with him.

Seeing Zheng Xuan's hesitation, Lu Yi was secretly happy in his heart, and took the opportunity to say: "There is a general under the righteous subordinates, who is a high-ranking disciple of the Duke of Leyin, with the surname of the name and the name of the Zhao, the character of the scripture, the noble character, and the all-round talent of civil and military affairs, can be led by him 200 sergeants to escort Zheng Gong all the way to Xuzhou, how about it?" ”

When Zheng Xuan heard that the lead was a protΓ©gΓ© of Le Yin, he nodded and said, "In this case, there is General Lao!" ”

Seeing Zheng Xuan's agreement, Lu Yi was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "If you can contribute to Zheng Gong, you can meet it but you can't ask for it!" Please also ask Zheng Gong to move to the mansion to rest for a while, wait for all the arrangements to be righteous, and then it's not too late to hurry! After speaking, he looked at Cheng Gongying.

Cheng Gongying didn't understand Lu Yi's thoughts, and arched his hand at Zheng Xuan and said, "Zheng Gong, please!" ”

Zheng Xuan nodded in agreement, and then the scribe helped Zheng Xuan to walk towards the ox cart parked next to him.

Lu Yi didn't follow, this is not because Lu Yi is unwilling to accompany Zheng Xuan, but because he is still embarrassed by what happened before, so he asked Cheng Gongying to accompany him, after all, Cheng Gongying is a literati, and there are more topics to talk about with Zheng Xuan.

Koji Yimu sent Zheng Xuan to get in the car and leave, and then prepared to go outside the city to find a move, but suddenly remembered Xu Sheng, and hurriedly looked around, but there was still a shadow.

Koji Yi was in a hurry, this is a tiger general, although he is still young, but with a little training, the future is limitless, if he misses it like this, it would be a pity.

Koji Yi looked around and didn't see anyone, and hurriedly turned back to Koji Yan and asked, "Have you ever seen where Xu Sheng went?" ”

Koji Yan replied respectfully: "General Hui, several people were escorted to the county government before!" ”

"Whew......!" Koji Yi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and he was not afraid to be locked up, just didn't leave.

Then he instructed Koji Yan: "Send someone to look for a trick outside the city, and order him to lead 200 first, bring enough grain and grass, and escort Zheng Gong to Xuzhou!" ”

Although Koji Yi didn't ask for anything more, Koji Yi believed that with his mind to lead the move, he would definitely understand the purpose of sending him.

"No!" Koji quickly turned around and arranged after listening.

For Koji Yi, Zheng Xuan is a long-term investment, and he doesn't know what the income will be until the last moment, and there may even be no return, but no matter what, even if there is only a slight hope, Koji Yi will do it.

If you want to survive in troubled times, you must seize any opportunity to improve your reputation and strengthen your strength as much as possible, otherwise, in this era of the jungle, if you don't advance, you will retreat, and sooner or later you will become a stepping stone on the way forward for others.

……

In the county government prison, Xu Sheng looked at Peng Sheng, who was giggling with the officials in the opposite cell, his eyes were on fire, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

I thought that the truth of the matter had been found out, and I could leave, who knew that those soldiers were even arrested with themselves, and they were called waiting for the generals to fall, Xu Sheng scoffed at this statement, and he was extremely dissatisfied with Koji Yi in his heart.

"I thought he was a righteous general, but it turned out that he was also a straw bag who didn't distinguish between right and wrong, phew!" After Xu Sheng thought about it, he spat on the ground with disdain.

Who knew that Xu Sheng's action attracted the attention of the officer, who was familiar with Peng Sheng, and usually got benefits from Peng Sheng, and was thinking about how to vent his anger for this Young Master Peng, but he didn't want Xu Sheng to send it to the door himself.

The official glanced at Peng Sheng, saw him nodding to himself with a smile, understood in his heart, turned around and came to Xu Sheng's prison door, and scolded: "Thief, do you know where this is, you don't repent, and you want to die?" ”

Xu Shengzheng was angry, and when he heard the official scolding him as a thief, he was furious, regardless of it, he suddenly stretched out his hand out of the prison door, grabbed the front placket of the officer, and scolded: "Those who insult me will be killed!" After scolding his arm, he pulled the official and slammed into the prison door.
