Outside the county yamen, You Heng arrived early.

Unlike yesterday's empty-handed interview, this morning's You Heng carried a pheasant as a gift.

The pheasant is a type of pheasant that is difficult to raise, does not eat what it comes from, and generally starves to death soon after being caught.

This is considered a noble virtue among scholars, so scholars often use pheasants as gifts when visiting each other, implying that both the recipient and the giver have noble virtues, and are not tempted by wealth or power.

Because pheasants are not easy to raise, and they are easy to stink when they die, most of the pheasants sent by scholars are dried pheasant chicken.

You Heng has his own arrogance, and he will not easily visit people, and there will be no air-dried pheasant chicken at home, because he has a strange personality and no scholarly friends, so naturally he can't borrow pheasant chicken for visiting.

Thinking of the four poems given by Zheng Ping, You Heng didn't want to lose the courtesy.

So I went to the market early in the morning, and squatted for half an hour before I bought the pheasant from the hunter, and even almost quarreled with the same county scholar who also wanted to buy pheasants.

You Heng, who has never visited people, actually squatted in the market early in the morning, just to buy pheasants, which made the scholars quite curious.

For a madman like You Heng, buying pheasants is naturally not just for eating.

The scholars who talked a lot followed behind Youheng, wanting to see who Youheng, who had always been arrogant, was going to visit?

As a result, he came to the outside of the county office.

"County office? Is it Zheng Juncheng that You Heng wants to visit? ”

"You Heng didn't see Zheng Juncheng when he arrived in Hai last night, so do you want to give a gift today?"

"Hey, you can visit with a gift? Who is Zheng Juncheng? ”

"No, Youheng has always been arrogant, if Zheng Juncheng didn't agree, Youheng would lick his face and come early in the morning to give gifts?"

"Hiss~ That's right. Could it really be that Zheng Juncheng agreed to You Heng to visit? Visiting with the gift of a scholar, why does You Heng have such treatment? ”

"It's just a bit of rhetoric."

“.”

The gift of the scholar is given to the pheasant, the gift of the doctor is given to the wild goose, and the gift of the minister is given to the lamb.

From the initial surprise, the scholars gradually became envious, and even jealous.

After all, with Zheng Ping's current status, he agreed to let a "tainted scholar" like You Heng visit as a scholar, but the rest of the scholars did not have this treatment, how can it not be puzzling?

Squeak –

The door opened, and Zheng Ping came out from the inside.

The white robe and silver armor are still the attire of the march.

As soon as You Heng saw Zheng Ping, he hurriedly bowed and said in a humble tone: "You Heng, who was born late, has seen Mr. Xianmou." ”

This salutation almost didn't startle the jaws of the onlookers.

Late birth?

Mr?

Isn't this playing a trick on us?

You Heng, who has always been arrogant, when has he ever been so humble?

"Am I dazzled? You Heng claims to be a late student, and he calls Mr. Zheng Juncheng? ”

"What the hell is going on? Aren't you arrogant today? With Youheng's personality, shouldn't you comment on Zheng Juncheng? ”

"Hey, who was the last one to leave last night? What did You Heng say in the county government last night? ”

"Who will pay attention to the affairs of Youheng, I wish he had been blowing the cold wind last night."

"Could it be that You Heng and Zheng Juncheng knew each other before, so they are so humble?"

"Zheng Juncheng invited You Heng to enter the county office, did you pass the assessment yesterday, go to the county government to listen."

“.”

The scholars were talking.

Zheng Ping had already invited You Heng to the inner hall, and the officials had already prepared for the banquet.

You Heng was a little flattered.

Since the reputation has "stinked", this is the first time that someone has officially hosted a banquet to entertain Youheng.

After all, You Heng's mouth is known as the first troll in the late Han Dynasty, and most of the scholars in the same county have been sprayed by Youheng, who will invite You Heng to a banquet?

"Now that the people's livelihood is suffering and food is in short supply, this wine has been quit since the day I entered Gaotang County. White water is tasteless, don't dislike it. ”

After greeting for a while, Zheng Ping picked up the water bottle and explained to You Heng.

When You Heng saw that the white water was clear, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Honest as water, heart like lotus fragrance." Mr. Xianmou has the people's livelihood and suffering, how dare he dislike it in his later life? ”

Zheng Ping took the test again, and You Heng taught three teachings and nine streams, and all the sons of the hundred schools, and You Heng answered them all like a stream.

Between the answers, You Heng's respect for Zheng Ping also became deeper and deeper.

The questions that Zheng Ping can ask are almost all the core essence of the classics of the Three Religions and the Nine Streams and the Hundred Schools of Thought, which means that Zheng Ping is not only well-read, but also has studied these classic books.

You Heng is conceited and intelligent, and looks down on the scholars of the same county.

But in front of Zheng Ping, he was first calmed by the artistic conception of the rhetoric of the four moons, and then he was amazed by Zheng Ping's talent and learning from various classics today.

"Mr. Xianmou, there is something I don't understand in my late life." You Heng lowered his posture and asked.

After receiving Zheng Ping's signal, You Heng cleared his throat slightly and said, "Mr. Xianmou can govern various classics, why don't you write books and speak, or debate with others and comment on current affairs, so as to make a name for yourself in the world?" ”

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, my impression of Mr. Xianmou in my later life would still be just the words 'Mr. Kangcheng's son'."

But all talented scholars like to debate with others.

There are many debates, and naturally they are famous in the scholarly circle.

Even if You Heng offends a lot of people, You Heng's intelligence is well known to the people in the same county.

Zheng Ping laughed: "On writings and books, who can compare to my father?" The pearl and jade are in front, and the tile stone is difficult to be. ”

"As for debating with people and commenting on current affairs, this is just a means for scholars to seek fame. But my father is already a famous person in China, and the words 'son of Mr. Kangcheng' are enough to make me famous in the world, so why should I waste time debating with others and seeking a false name? ”

"My generation of scholars, what we have learned is the art of rejuvenating the state and establishing a business, and since it should be based on the application of the world, the knowledge must be beneficial to national affairs."

You are awe-inspiring.

If this is an ordinary person with lofty ideals, he probably wants to surpass the fame of his father, and he doesn't want to be called "so-and-so son".

Zheng Ping did the opposite.

Since Zheng Xuan is a famous Confucian in the sea, why waste time seeking fame?

Using the fame of the fathers, to apply it to the world, and to prosper the country is the most important thing.

You Heng said in a condensed voice: "Mr. Xianmou's words are too utilitarian, aren't you afraid of being judged by people for being a non-gentleman?" ”

Zheng Ping said with a smile: "The merits and demerits are commented on by future generations." If the scholars who have the ability to help the troubled times still only want to be good to themselves, and do not use their talents to help the world, even if there is a gentleman's name, it is just a group of selfish people. ”

"Bird, and know the ambition of the bird?"

Zheng Ping's words were scolded, and the pattern was far better than that of ordinary scholars, and You Heng's heart was surging when he heard it.

Although You Heng is proud of his talents, he is still only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy.

Character, unwilling to go along with the dirt, but eager to be recognized, and want to do his best to help the world.

You Heng had a clear idea, and immediately got up and bowed: "Although the late life has not yet reached the crown, but the conceit and intelligence are not inferior to others, I am willing to ask for the position of a county commander to govern the people of such a county." ”

Most of the scholars who came to seek advice were arranged by Zheng Ping.

But You Heng directly asked for the position of county commander, not only bold, but also very purposeful.

"The county order of the general county, and the appointment of talents." Shaking the water bottle in his hand slightly, Zheng Ping's tone gradually condensed: "In troubled times, most of the weak scholars are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they don't know the danger of this military matter, nor do they know what is a national event for soldiers. ”

You Heng was unconvinced: "Why did Mr. underestimate his late life? Although he majored in literature in his later years, he also practiced the art of riding and archery diligently, and was not a weak scholar who was greedy for life and afraid of death. ”

"Good!" Zheng Ping put down the water bottle and looked at You Heng with a hint of cunning in his eyes: "I am about to raise troops to Leling, but there is still a lack of drummers in the army, do you dare to follow me in the army?" ”

You Heng is talented, but because he is still young, most of his experience comes from various classics.

The teachings of the sages are easy to come by, but they lack the knowledge of practice.

I can read thousands of books, but I haven't walked thousands of miles.

He has great intelligence, but he is too angry.

Zheng Ping admires You Heng's intelligence, and naturally hopes that You Heng, a young man, can have more insights in his tempering.

The drummer is not a humiliation.

The drummers in the army involve the orders in the army, and they also need smart and clever people to serve.

With Your intelligence, it is not difficult to learn.

The difficulty lies in whether You Heng has the courage to join the army!

On the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, and even Zheng Ping himself does not dare to guarantee whether he will be hit by stray arrows.

As Zheng Ping expected, You Heng hesitated.

Going to the battlefield is not child's play.

This is not a slogan that dares to say that you can join the army.

You Heng gritted his teeth, his hands trembled a little, and his heart was also entangled and fighting.

Although I told Zheng Ping just now that he Youheng is not greedy for life and afraid of death, he was provoked by Zheng Ping, and his momentum cannot be lost.

But if you really want to go to the battlefield, what you have to consider is not a battle of words.

Zheng Ping didn't urge, just drank the white water quietly.

If You Heng just wanted to save face, he went against his will and said that he was willing to join the army, Zheng Ping would not let You Heng follow the army.

At that time, if he trembles on the battlefield, violates military orders, and delays military aircraft, Zheng Ping will have to punish You Heng with military law.

This was not Zheng Ping's intention!

If You Heng does not dare to follow the army, then Your Heng's position in the future will be limited to paperwork.

Long.

You Heng took a deep breath, and the trembling of his hands disappeared.

Getting up and bowing, You Heng bowed respectfully: "Mr.'s teachings have made the late-born cottage open." Ants are still greedy for life, and people are naturally afraid of death. ”

"If you are not threatened with death, how can you not be afraid of life and death?"

"If you are not talented in your later life, you are willing to be a drum official under Mr. and go out with Mr."

Zheng Ping got up and laughed: "Since you are a man, you should be self-reliant, don't forget the young Ling Yunzhi." I'm two years older than you, and you don't have to humble yourself and call me sir, just be commensurate with your words? ”

"I wonder if there are still elders in your family?"

You Heng was infected, and his heart was excited, and he also changed his words: "Brother Xianmou, my father died of illness ten years ago, and before he died, he took a table for me to be upright, upright, and upright, not to bend my waist for the powerful, and not to be tempted by money. ”

Heng also means fairness.

Pingyasu is honest from the book "Shangshu. Hong Fan", which means that the world is peaceful, just and not evil.

Zheng Ping sighed secretly, You Heng's character is still a family heirloom.

"Since there is a table word, then it will be called Zhengping in the future." Zheng Ping smiled slightly: "You go back and clean up the softness and worship Ling Zun." Then change into a neat set of clothes, and wait outside the east city gate at dusk. ”

Seeing that Zheng Ping was about to leave the city at dusk, You Heng knew that the military situation was urgent, and he no longer delayed Zheng Ping's time.

He had to leave the city at dusk, which meant that before dusk, Zheng Ping had to appoint the officials of Banxian County one by one.

Zheng Pingken set up a banquet alone and talked with You Heng for half an hour, which was already a busy time.

You Heng is not an uninteresting person, so he immediately got up and said goodbye.

"He's a malleable talent!"

Zheng Ping looked at the departing You Heng and bowed slightly.

There are still too few talents who work for Liu Bei now, and most of them can only act according to orders, and very few can take charge of themselves.

In addition to Zheng Ping, the most skilled in government affairs is Hu Zhao, the county magistrate of Gaotang County.

Whether it is Sun Qian, Hua Ji, or Liu Jun, the eldest son of the King of Plains, they are still very immature.

Chen Ji's son, Chen Qun, has good governance ability, but unfortunately Chen Qun followed Chen Ji to Qian County.

Obviously, today's Chen Qun does not want to serve Liu Bei.

"I don't know if Yide has seen Lu Shangshu in Youzhou."

"Lu Shangshu's arrival in the plain is the time when the prince of the mansion really rises."

Although Zheng Xuan's disciples are many, most of them lack experience, they can be used but not reused, and it takes time for Zheng Xuan's disciples to grow.

But Lu Zhi's former official is different, he can directly get started and take charge of himself.

Taking a deep breath, Zheng Ping calmed his mind and asked the guards to summon the scholars according to the roster.

Although these scholars are not geniuses, they can barely be used.

And outside the county office.

The onlookers had already learned that You Heng was going to be Zheng Ping's military drummer, and their eyes became complicated, and the ridicule stopped abruptly.

Drum guards in the army, not everyone can be a drummer!

Just like Zheng Ping tested You Heng's guts, ordinary soldiers would not dare to follow the army easily.

Follow Ban Chao's pen from Rong, there are not many in this world!

"I didn't expect You Heng to have the courage to join the army, but I admire it."

"This is really unexpected, I didn't expect this crazy student who can only write articles to have the courage to become a drum officer in the army."

"Compared with this, what I care about more is: You are proud of your talents, but you can convince Zheng Juncheng. Zheng Juncheng's ability is even more amazing! ”

"Isn't that a good thing for us? Zheng Juncheng can convince him of a mad life like You Heng, which shows that his virtue is not worse than that of Mr. Kangcheng. ”

"Zheng Juncheng is so talented, and he is willing to assist Liu Fujun, Liu Fujun's benevolence and faithfulness must be as rumored. This is a blessing for a county scholar like me! ”

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Shangguan is benevolent and faithful, and we can show what we have learned all our lives. ”

“.”

All of a sudden, the voices praising Zheng Ping and praising Liu Bei came and went.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, most of the scholars had the ambition of governing the country and leveling the world, and they only hated the chaos of the current situation and too many power struggles, which made the scholars walk on thin ice.

Now that the plain has a plain like Liu Bei, who is benevolent and faithful, and there is an elegant and talented person like Zheng Ping to help him, the atmosphere of the plain scholars has gradually changed.

Lizheng was beaten, and he wanted to change the text, but the speed of the code word could not go up, and he was bragging for 20,000 a day.

First guarantee the bottom three more 12,000, and I will send more manuscripts if there is a deposit.
