Chapter 196: Treating Bei Liang
To put it bluntly, these officials, like people, are very skillful in this thing that falls into the ground, thinking that they can send charcoal in the fire, then they can only wait in vain, and they can't do it in the fire, so they will do something that is not painful and icing on the cake.
Wu Ming is a good example, when the literary name is prominent, how many eunuchs, Mr. Zuo, Mr. Right, wish to regard Wu Ming as his own Lao Tzu, the name of a good lover. As a result, Wu Ming was casually charged by Zhang Zigu, and few people in the entire court dared to come out and say a word.
Wu Ming drank the stuffy wine, sip after sip, while Xiao Qingchen shook his head with a smile and took a drink. "Da", Wu Ming put down his wine glass and said to Xiao Qingchen, "Childe, you are also a scholar?" Xiao Qingchen nodded and said, "I've read it for a few years, but I'm not motivated, I also want to get a fame, think about it, what is this fame for, and in the end, I will scold the court?" It's better to be my ranger. ”
Wu Ming heard Xiao Qingchen say this, laughed, but he was a little drunk, and said, "Yes, yes, what do you want this fame for?" It's all bullshit."
Xiao Qingchen drank another glass of wine and served a bowl of rice to the little girl Momo after eating.
Wu Ming raised his head and smiled, "I have read books all my life, and I have written this book of "State and County Ills", but in the end, my son and daughter-in-law have to die in the river, and my good granddaughter has also been an orphan since she was a child." I don't know if I read the book wrong, or if I wrote this "State and County Ills Book" wrong. ”
The little girl seemed to understand the desolation in Wu Ming's heart, and stretched out her little hand to pull Wu Ming's sleeve, Wu Ming looked down, and the little girl Momo smiled at Wu Ming. Wu Ming also smiled and brushed Momo's head with his own hand.
Xiao Qingchen said, "It's right to read, it's not wrong to write books, whoever is wrong is not much point to investigate now." Didn't the old gentleman hear that the name of the white-clothed sword saint on the rivers and lakes was called? ”
Hearing the name of the white-clothed Sword Saint, Wu Ming said, "I don't know, I was a scholar more than twenty years ago, and I heard him and Bai Xiaosheng sitting and talking in Qingyun Mountain. That touch of style is the posture of an immortal, and I have never seen this kind of immortal posture for many years. ”
Xiao Qingchen put down his wine glass and said, "Since the old gentleman has heard his name, then you know what the Battle of the Seven Kings is all about." What this sword saint said is, reading, reading, in the end it is to use books, don't read books for a lifetime, in the end you don't use any of them, this is not called reading. ”
Wu Ming heard Xiao Qingchen persuade himself like this, and the implication was that he didn't make a mistake in writing that book. Wu Ming nodded bitterly, although he said so, he didn't do it like that.
Xiao Qingchen said again: "Old gentleman, have you been to Beiliang? Wu Ming nodded and said, "Beiliang has been there, Beiliang governs Liangzhou and Qizhou, with 300,000 garrisons, direct snow, flat terrain and no danger to defend." On the officialdom of Liangzhou and Qizhou, they are also contaminated with the habits of some Northern Liang iron horses, which are extremely strong, but they are no less meticulous than Jiangnan. The rebellion of the Seven Kings has taken root in the major scholar clans that rushed north in order to live a stable life, and the scholars of the north and the scholars of the south of the Yangtze River who migrated competed in the previous generation, but the scholars of this generation have become compatible, but they still look at each other unpleasantly. In the north and in the south, the cold and the famous are staggered. ”
Xiao Qingchen listened carefully to Wu Ming's Beiliang, Wu Ming's "State and County Ills Book" was ordered by Bai Xuan to destroy all printed versions before it was published, and Xiao Qingchen didn't have to read Wu Ming's "State and County Ills Book".
"Could it be that Childe wants to go to Beiliang?" , Wu Ming heard Xiao Qingchen ask him about Beiliang, so he asked rhetorically. Xiao Qingchen nodded and said, "Go around, you have to go and see this Beiliang." According to the old gentleman, can this Beiliang go? ”
Wu Ming glanced at Xiao Qingchen carefully, and then said, "Beiliang, go." Let's not talk about the staggered teeth of the Beiliang scholars, each with a ghost, just look at the imperial court has always wanted to decide the source of the scholars in Beiliang, cut off the hearts of its scholars, and all those famous scholars have been transferred out over the years, but this is to quench thirst. It is precisely because of this that scholars from all over the country rushed to Beiliang, and the scholars became even more famous. You see that among the famous scholars in the past few years, there are always a few scholars from Beiliang, and the momentum of the articles they make is extraordinary, and most of them have the tendency to swallow the world. This is also related to the topography of Beiliang, if there is no Qianxue to contain, Beiliang Iron Cavalry will drive straight into the Central Plains without much effort. ”
Xiao Qingchen interjected and said, "How should Mr. cut off the source of the Northern Liang Scholars?" Wu Ming shook his head and said, "I can't break it, unless, kill the Beiliang Shizi cleanly." Originally, the Northern Liang scholars were weak, but in order to gain a firm foothold, the scholars who moved south formed various in-laws with the Northern Liang princes, and the result was that you have me and I have you. This trick is absolutely used by Marshal Xiao. ”
Xiao Qingchen nodded thoughtfully, and the wine glass in his hand was not put down for a long time. You have me, I have you, the result will be powerful, and the stool will not be at ease. When the canal is full, the waters will flood the surroundings.
Wu Ming said again, "The imperial court has long wished that Beiliang would rebel, and then rehabilitate itself, and then take Beiliang into its arms." That's so easy, you see that the imperial court transferred the famous scholars of Beiliang, although it is tantamount to drinking water to quench thirst, but it is only limited to Beiliang, which is not rebellious. Once Beiliang drives south, he will inevitably be called the emperor, and when the Beiliang court is built, these scholars will have a place to use! The imperial court is forcing Beiliang to rebel, but Beiliang rebelled, and the imperial court was able to collect Beiliang? Beiliang now has no shortage of soldiers, people, and military hearts. ”
Xiao Qingchen smiled lightly.
Wu Ming sighed, took out a book without a name from his arms, handed it to Xiao Qingchen, and said, "This is the only "State and County Ills Book" in the world, son, you can accept it." Think of it as today's meal money. ”
After speaking, he stood up and said goodbye to Xiao Qingchen and said, "Childe, I'm a little bothered, it's time to leave, farewell." As he spoke, he picked up his crutches and led the little girl Momo out.
Xiao Qingchen stood up and said, "Old man, please slow down." Wu Ming turned around and said, "What else is the matter with Childe?" ”
Xiao Qingchen handed the "State and County Ills Book" to Wu Ming, and arched his hand and said, "Sir, I want to ask you to treat Bei Liang." ”。 Wu Ming took the "State and County Ills Book" and asked, "You're not afraid of me, misdiagnosis?" ”
Xiao Qingchen smiled and said, "Dead horses are just live horse doctors." Wu Ming nodded and said, "Then according to the words of the prince." Who in the world can say that Bei Liang will see a doctor? Who else could there be besides the King of Beiliang?
Xiao Qingchen could only laugh when he heard Wu Ming call himself the son of the world.
And at this moment, a group of people walked in at the door, Xiao Qingchen heard the footsteps, and with a glance, he saw that it was Bai Qiuying leading a woman, and behind him were six hidden masters, four men and two women.
"You're here." , Bai Qiuying naturally saw Xiao Qingchen, came over to say hello, and then glanced at Wu Ming, arched his hand and smiled, "It turned out to be Mr. Wu." ”
Wu Ming waved his hand and said, "Don't be a gentleman of the prince." Bai Qiuying said disapprerovantly, "I also heard that the old gentleman who was kicked out of the capital was guilty of an unknown crime by Zhang Zigu, and I also regretted it in my heart." ”
Wu Ming just smiled and didn't speak, but Xiao Qingchen spoke, "This is what I saw first, don't rob it, even if you rob it, you can't grab it." ”。
Bai Qiuying turned his head, snorted, and said to Ye Piaoxiang next to him, "No, it's him, the prince of Beiliang." Ye Piaoxiang had been guessing Xiao Qingchen's identity before, and heard Bai Qiuying say that he was the son of Beiliang, and gave Xiao Qingchen a blessing, saying, "I have seen the prince of Beiliang." ”
Xiao Qingchen naturally had to return the courtesy, and said with a smile, "I've seen my sister-in-law here." ", looked at Xiao Qingchen and said, "Are you leaving?" ”
Xiao Qingchen nodded, Bai Qiuying waved his hand and said, "Remember to pay back!" ”
Xiao Qingchen laughed and walked out with Wu Ming.
