When Kong Rong was first in charge of Beihai, he sent people to listen to famous people in Beihai, such as Zheng Xuan, Zheng Ping, Wang Xuan, Sun Shao, Bing Yuan, Guan Ning, Liu Zheng, Tai Shici, etc.

Liu Zheng and Tai Shici went to Liaodong to avoid trouble a few years ago, and Bingyuan was brave and heroic, and was inspected by Kong Rong as 'there is a way'.

However, Bing Yuan thought that the Yellow Turban in Beihai was powerful, and Kong Rong was not a hero who could pacify the Yellow Turban, so he went to Liaodong with Guan Ning, a native of the same county, and Wang Lie, a native of the plain.

Zheng Xuan devoted himself to writing books and teaching, preaching and teaching, and he was also unsuccessful in his conquest of Kong Rong.

Only Wang Xuan and Sun Shao were grateful for Kong Rong's ambition to be diligent and difficult, and went out of Beihai County.

When Wang Xuan and Sun Shao talked to Kong Rong about the famous people in Beihai, they praised Zheng Ping, the second son of Zheng Xuan, saying that he "has hills and ravines in his chest, a good belly, mountains and rivers in his eyes, and is crazy in the world, which is incomparable." ”

And because Zheng Ping traveled to Zhuzhou County for four years, Kong Rong has always only heard of his name, but not his person.

Today is the first time I have met Zheng Ping.

And this first impression made Kong Rong secretly surprised.

"Shuzhi and Changxu both said that Zheng Ping was a madman in the world, but in my opinion, although there is arrogance between his eyebrows, there is no arrogance, could it be that the four years of travel have made Zheng Ping Zangfeng introverted?"

"The young man is talented, the world is arrogant, and it is not an exaggeration to be arrogant with real talent. But Zang Feng is introverted and polite, but few people can abide by it at this age. ”

"My son-in-law!"

This father-in-law looks at his son-in-law, and the more he looks at it, the more satisfied he becomes.

"Xianmou's nephew is also in person, but he is not careful." Kong Rong smiled and returned the salute, and couldn't help complaining in his heart that Zongbao didn't even report such a big thing.

Zong Bao was also very wronged.

This messenger's message is meant to be simple and clear, and the messenger can't remember it even if he says too much.

Kong Rong invited Zheng Yi and Zheng Ping into the city, and at the same time sent someone back to inform Mrs. Chen, since Zheng Ping came in person, this Mrs. Chen naturally had to come out to see her.

During the period when Zheng Yi and Kong Rong were talking, Zheng Ping was scanning the military and civilian facilities in Beihai City left and right.

But soon, Zheng Ping couldn't help but shake his head secretly.

This Beihai City seems to be strong, but military facilities are scarce, and more are pavilions, pavilions, pavilions and corridors suitable for literati and artists.

With this people's power and financial resources, it is better to add strong bows and crossbows on the city tower to strengthen the power of the defense.

Kong Rong's eyes were sharp, and he saw Zheng Ping, who was shaking his head.

Although he was talking to Zheng Yi, Kong Rong's eyes were always looking at Zheng Ping, the prospective son-in-law.

"Xianmou virtuous nephew, could it be that there is something unsatisfactory in this Beihai City?" Kong Rong asked.

Zheng Yi's face changed slightly, and he secretly said that he was going to suffer.

From the beginning of entering the city, Zheng Yi grabbed Kong Rong to speak, the purpose was to keep Zheng Ping silent and less to answer Kong Rong.

After all, Zheng Ping's evaluation of Kong Rong made Zheng Yi frightened, this has to be said in front of Kong Rong, can the dowry continue?

"Uncle, the conspiracy should be a bit tiring." Zheng Yi prevaricated the reason and gave Zheng Ping a look in his eyes.

But Zheng Ping turned a deaf ear to Zheng Yi's eyes, and said with a straight smile: "Uncle's Beihai City, although it is quite civilized, it lacks martial energy. ”

Zheng Yi's face changed, and he hurriedly approached and persuaded him: "Xianmou, can't you be tactful?" ”

Kong Rong waved his sleeves and said that he didn't care: "Xianmou's virtuous nephew is well versed in civil and military affairs, so it's better to talk about it, how can my Beihai City lack martial arts?" ”

Zheng Ping chuckled: "Uncle, my brother let the little nephew be tactful, how about the little nephew with poetry?" ”

Zheng Yi held his forehead in despair.

I asked you to be tactful, to tell you not to say it, not to let you be sarcastic!

Kong Rong laughed: "The virtuous nephew has Yaxing, and his true appearance also wants to see the literary brilliance of the virtuous nephew." ”

Zheng Ping lightly touched the feather fan and pointed to the white-haired Confucian who talked about the Five Classics on the Yalou on the side of the road: "Lu Sue talks about the Five Classics, and the white-haired dead chapters and sentences." Asking for economic strategies is like falling smoke. ”

As soon as the poem came out, Rao is Kong Rong couldn't help but change his face.

Zheng Yi wailed even more in his heart, my brother, can you restrain yourself.

But Zheng Ping turned a blind eye to Kong Rong and Zheng Yi's reactions, and the feather fan pointed out, which is a famous sentence through the ages:

"Foot travel shoes, the first to wear a square mountain scarf. Slowly walk from the straight, and dust before the line. ”

"The Prime Minister's Mansion of the Qin family does not praise people. Jun is not an uncle and grandson, and I am a special person. ”

A poem by Li Bai "Mocking Confucianism", with its spicy tone, vividly portrays the image of Confucianism acting broadly and pretendingly, only reading scriptures and not knowing how to govern the country.

Although the feather fan refers to the white-haired Confucian scholar on the Yalou Building, Zheng Ping said it to Kong Rong.

Kong Rong is already good at rhetoric, how can he not hear the irony in this poem?

Subconsciously, Kong Rong thought of Wang Xuan and Sun Shao's evaluation of Zheng Ping: There are hills and valleys in the chest, there are mountains and rivers in the abdomen, and there are mountains and rivers in the eyes.

When he first saw Zheng Ping, Kong Rong thought that Zheng Ping was introverted, arrogant but not arrogant.

But now, Kong Rong knew that he had lost his eyes.

What is hidden and introverted, this madness has not changed at all!

"Xianmou, what kind of poems are you chanting?" Zheng Yi hurriedly apologized to Kong Rong: "Brother She's just joking, please don't mind my uncle." ”

But to Zheng Yi's surprise, Kong Rong was not angry.

If it were a different person, it is estimated that Kong Rong would have waved his sleeves and left, but this poem came from Zheng Ping's mouth, but Kong Rong's thoughts were different.

Zhang Rao, the yellow turban thief who gave Kong Rong a headache, was almost killed by Zheng Ping in one shot.

Zheng Ping is not a sour Confucian who can only recite poetry and satire, but has real talent and learning.

It can not only comment on the current situation of Kong Rong, a Beihai City, that is civilized but lacks martial spirit, but also have a countermeasure.

More importantly, Kong Rong appreciates Zheng Ping's talent.

Even if it is irony, this satirical poem is far better than ordinary scholars looking for chapters and excerpts.

Seeing Zheng Yi's apology, Kong Rong shook his head lightly: "Yi Enxian's nephew doesn't think that Benxiang is a narrow-minded person?" Xian Mouxian's nephew is brilliantly written, even if it is Sima Xiangru's resignation, it has to be overshadowed. The poem has the meaning of exhortation, and the advice is naturally contrary to the ear, so why should I apologize? ”

Zheng Ping held the fan and arched his hand, and said with a chuckle: "Uncle is magnanimous, and the little nephew is ashamed." ”

Kong Rong laughed: "The prime minister is determined to be diligent and difficult to be honest, and there is a lack of a brave and heroic man like a virtuous nephew around him. When I return to the mansion, I will definitely drink with my nephew and discuss important matters together! ”

Zheng Ping and Zheng Yi have different ideas, and they use "Mocking Ruru" to mock Kong Rong, which seems rude, but it is actually more in line with Kong Rong's temperament.

Even if it is a warning, it has to pay attention to the way and the method.

Advice is not good for the ear, and this good word is often not good for the ear.

But if you can do what you like, it will sound very pleasant.

In the government.

Kong Rong prepared a banquet and warmly entertained Zheng Yi and Zheng Ping brothers.

The wine has just passed three rounds.

A girl in a plain white gauze dress and pleated skirt came from outside the hall.
