I'm Liu Bei.

"Interesting." I drank a handful of wine and smiled.

Zhao wine is spicy, which has only been heard in TV dramas before. Now that I can taste it, I feel that this time it was not in vain.

The maid bowed down and poured wine, and her posture was elegant, although her appearance was not good, but it was also eye-catching. I can't help but look at the maids around me, although they are thoughtful and thoughtful, and there is no shortage of beautiful ones, but there is no elegant temperament exuded by the one next to them. I couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "What is the name of Miss?" ”

The maid stood beside her, holding her hanging right sleeve with her left hand, and covered her mouth with her right hand, saying, "Childe can call me Aunt Mei." ”

When I heard the word "Mei", I couldn't let go of Chunmei's death, and her tragic death really shocked me from the heart. After a long time, when I collected my feelings and went to listen to the scholar's speech on the stage, the scholar was already making a summary.

"If the general trend is today, it will inevitably tend to stabilize. After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the court was bound to rise to another wave of new policies of 'respecting Confucianism and deposing Taoism'. That's what I'm saying. ”

After the scholar finished speaking, he strode off the podium, and everyone habitually shouted "color", and the onlookers did not return to their seats, and discussed what they had just said by the railing.

A voice came from behind him. "To say it is to say nothing. The Taiping Taoist sect gathered people to rebel, and if the court did not suppress it, wouldn't it let the people of the world follow the rebellion together! ”

I turned to look back. The one who spoke was a young man dressed in dirty clothes, and his hair seemed to be unwashed and hastily tied behind his head, with a look that was not afraid of other people's jokes. His banquet was messily sprinkled with fried beans, and there were a lot of them on the ground. He was picking them up one by one and sending them to his mouth. His demeanor and demeanor are out of step with his surroundings.

He squinted at me. Damn it! It's him. I know it when it turns to ashes.

On the day I crossed over, there was a wizard who suggested burning me, and he was pretending to be it.

Seeing that I was staring at him dissatisfied, Aunt Mei covered her mouth and said softly: "That person is a hooligan here, and the son doesn't need to pay attention to it." Please drink one more knight. ”

"It's pretty elegant here, how do you let a scoundrel in?"

"The slave and maid dare not ask about the affairs of the master's family."

I asked, "Mei Ku, do you often have people here who come to the stage to make speeches?" ”

"Yes, Childe. Anxi County has a nickname called 'County of Speech'. In the past, scholars came to the county intentionally or unintentionally to make speeches, hoping to be appreciated by the government and get a half-official position. Even if you are not appreciated by the government, it is a beautiful difference to be favored by the big family and ask to be a master. ”

"It's called Tang Society, there should be an allusion."

Aunt Mei smiled and said, "Childe is really amazing, in a word." The word 'Tang' is taken from the Tang Dynasty established by Emperor Dayao in ancient times. ”

It's Emperor Dayao again, is it related to the Tang Gate? So he asked, "This is your branch?" ”

"Yes. The head office is in Jinyang. ”

"What is the relationship between the Tang Society and the Tang Sect?"

Aunt Mei said in embarrassment: "The slave and maid don't know." Please try the fried beans, which are made in the best kitchen and taste excellent. ”

Three steps away, a refreshing shout suddenly sounded: "There is a discussion below!" ”

The man walked briskly down the stairs, flicked his long sleeves, and stepped onto the podium. He looks fresh and handsome, has a straight figure, is dressed in a Confucian green clothes, and his actions are unrestrained, not arrogant, chic and light, and there is a sense of mystery that cannot be guessed.

I don't know who excitedly shouted: "It's a new theory again." The surroundings were immediately silenced, expecting the speaker to make a high-pitched statement.

"Ladies and gentlemen, here's a discussion!" On the stage, the Confucian scholars bowed their hands.

The onlookers shouted jaggedly: "Good! Good! Go ahead! ”

Confucian Sheng said loudly: "I, Guo Jia, a native of Yingchuan Yangzhai, have a theory. I thought that the state pastoral system implemented by the imperial court last year would inevitably cause an uproar in the near future. As a result, there will be a change in the Han Dynasty, and there will also be a change in the state capitals, which may push the world into an era of heroic competition. ”

It's better to be famous than to meet. Guo Jia, who was called a "ghost talent" by later generations, was finally met by me. Immediately huddled to the fence, leaving everything behind and listening attentively to his high opinions.

Someone in the audience asked: "This son, the state pastoral system has shortened the time of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, dare to ask what's wrong?" ”

Guo Jia stepped forward and replied: "Compared with the state pastoral system and the assassin history system, the former strengthens the military command power of the assassin history. After being promoted to the position of state minister, Assassin Shi had the power to command the army in his state independently, without the permission of the imperial court. In this way, as long as the court does not supervise the state pastor effectively one day, then some thieves with unsubservient hearts will inevitably take the opportunity to sit on the throne and take advantage of the troops after the Yellow Turban Rebellion to divide the city and dominate one side. Over time, the court will lose control of the state capital. The example is that Taichang Liu Yan was transferred to Yizhou last year and took up the post of Yizhou pastor. After Liu Yan arrived, he secretly ordered Hanzhong Wudou Midao to cut off the connection between Yizhou and the imperial court. Today, Yizhou is a country within a country. ”

The crowd was in high spirits and shouted, "Cai! In this way, Liu Yan's conspiracy is already an open secret in the scholar world.

Guo Jia had no joy on his face, and continued calmly: "Now that the Taiping Dao has been destroyed, it should be a good time for the court to take back the military power of various places and abolish the state pastoral system. However, at this time, Emperor Ling of Han was seriously ill, and General He Jin was regent. ”

"He Jin himself was born as a military attaché, and after the regent, he integrated the military power of the world, and his military attachés were all over the state capitals. If the court wants to take back the delegated military power and abolish the state pastoral system, it will inevitably weaken He Jin's strength. Let me ask, which powerful minister is willing to be weakened in power? Therefore, the state pastoral system has formed an inextricable knot in the court. ”

Someone on the second floor asked: "If the state pastoral system is not removed, what will happen to the court?" ”

Guo Jia said with a bright expression: "General He Jin's monopoly of military and political power is bound to make the deep-rooted Ten Standing Servants feel like they are in trouble. However, both sides regard each other as a thorn in the flesh and a thorn in the eye, and they will quickly remove it. As the saying goes, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, one place does not allow two strong, either you die or I die, one party must fall, and the other side rises. From this, it can be inferred that a bloody struggle will inevitably be set off in the capital, and the power structure of the capital will inevitably undergo great changes. When the capital changes, the court will change. ”

Someone asked: "You haven't said that the court has changed, how has the world changed?" ”

Guo Jia said: "This brother is so anxious. The audience burst into laughter.

"The capital is in a state of strife, and the court has no time to take care of it. The governors lost their supervision and checks and balances, and fought with each other for cities, territory, and interests, among which the weak ones were annexed, and the strong ones wanted to be stronger. In this way, the world will remain unchanged? ”

Such a far-reaching insight is truly astonishing. The Battle of Chibi in history did not have Guo Jia's participation, and I dare not say that it was Zhou Yu's luck, but it was definitely Cao Cao's misfortune.

The crowd fell silent.

Guo Jia bowed, left the stage and returned to the second floor, and just sat back in the seat, the surrounding scholars suddenly burst into thunderous cheers.

"Color!"

"Reasonable!"

"Makes a certain mouth open."

The cheers continued, pushing the atmosphere in the lobby to *. Some scholars rushed from downstairs to the second floor and sat down next to Guo Jia.

A middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper walked towards Guo Jia. I hurriedly asked Aunt Mei to change her seat and sit on the east side of Guo Jia.

The middle-aged man said arrogantly: "I heard what Mr. said just now, it was really refreshing." I beg to move, the slave master wants to ask Mr. to teach the little son. ”

"Refreshing? Coach? Guo Jia was displeased, his face was as cold as the Antarctic continent, his eyes were like a big knife cut out of a tiger's horse, he got up and changed his seat, and poured himself a drink, as if he had never heard of it.

The middle-aged man was stunned, and immediately threw up his sleeves and left angrily.

I immediately walked to Guo Jia's seat and made a deep bow: "Mr. Guo! ”

Guo Jia left the table to return the salute. "Your Excellency is such a big gift, Jia doesn't dare to take it. If you don't give up, dare to ask for a drink. ”

This is exactly what I was going to say, but he was the first to send out an invitation, which shows how much intelligence is under those deep eyes.

I sat down, and Aunt Mei, who came with me, poured wine into the two lords.

Guo Jia's face was obviously much better than just now.

I praised: "Listening to the high opinions and analyzing them thoroughly, it is really an eye-opener for me." But what the gentleman said seems to be unfinished, and he means something else. ”

Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, and said happily: "Your Excellency can hear the sound outside the strings, and you should understand what I mean." ”

I said, "When I first left the house, I was in a closed house, and I asked for clarification. ”

Guo Jia hurriedly said: "In this way, Your Excellency also agrees that the court will change?" ”

"Exactly."

"The court has changed, the world has changed, what are the doubts?"

The court has changed, and the world has become an era of great contention for the hero Zhuolu. So how Guo Jia, as a scholar, is going to do it, is what I want to know the most. "What do you think of the gentleman?"

Guo Jia seemed to be worried and said: "If it is beneficial, it will go, and if it is beneficial, it will follow." ”

Since he didn't say it, I didn't want to ask again. After a little thought, he said: "Dare to ask what school Mr. learns?" ”

Guo Jia said: "A hundred schools of thought are deposed, what other factions are there in the world?" ”

"According to the following opinion, Mr. is not like a Confucian."

Guo Jia seemed to be interested: "Oh? What kind of school is there still a difference between like and dislike? ”

"As Mr. said, there are only a hundred schools of thought, and Confucianism is the only one. However, the hundred schools of thought did not die out, but were integrated into Confucianism, making Confucianism more suitable for kings and becoming a real art to control the world. ”

Guo Jia's eyes lit up: "Your Excellency's new interpretation has broadened my horizons. Please! Guo Jia raised his lordship to respect.

I raised the knight in return and drank all the wine in the knighthood. "Mr. is from Yingchuan, Yingchuan is thousands of miles away, how could Mr. be here?"

"The only thing I like in my life is to travel to learn from my ears!" Guo Jia calmly connected. "Listen to your accent, not a native of Anxi."

I replied, "Sir, you might as well take a guess as a relief from boredom." ”

"It's fine." Guo Jiaru began to look at me with sharp eyes, and suddenly left the table and said, "It turned out to be an adult, and Confucianism is polite." ”

I was stunned for a moment and denied: "I am not an official in the court." ”

Guo Jia was slightly stunned, and laughed at himself: "Forgive me for being clumsy, I really can't guess." Confess! Confess! Guo Jia instructed Aunt Mei to pour wine.

Finish drinking. I made an excuse to go to the side office, and when I came back, Guo Jia was already gone.

Aunt Mei said, "Mr. Guo has settled your account." ”

"Oh, yes." I muttered softly.

Missed opportunities, the sea of people is vast, and a talent like Guo Jia doesn't know when he will meet again. I couldn't help but sit down in my seat in distraction. Occasionally, I saw Guo Jia's banquet written with wine. I bowed down curiously to look at it, and my heart sank.

What a Guo Jia. Those two words are the "Liu Bei" of the Lishu font.
