Seeing that Chen Gong sincerely apologized, You Heng returned to sit down: "Chen Yicao, with all due respect, if the people of Yanzhou connive at Liu Dai's unauthorized attack, I am afraid that this Yanzhou will have to continue to fight in the future." ”

Chen Gong frowned: "You are engaged, why do you say that?" ”

You Heng didn't sell Guan Zi to Chen Gong, and said frankly: "Chen Yicao knows why Liu Dai wanted to attack and kill Cui Yan, the prime minister of Jibei, and Ying Shao of Taishan County at this time? ”

Chen Gong frowned and said: "The Taishou and the ministers of the Yanzhou counties have always been dissatisfied with Liu Yanzhou, and it is not surprising that Liu Yanzhou has the intention of attacking and killing. ”

You Heng laughed: "Why did Chen Yicao deceive me? Don't you really know that Liu Dai chose to attack Cui Yan and Ying Shao at this time, because he was instructed by Yuan Shao? ”

"Yuan Shao secretly set up a series of schemes, first using Liu Dai to attack and kill Cui Yan and Ying Shao to create a war in Yanzhou, so as to hide the whereabouts of Zhou Qiao, the assassin of Yuzhou."

And Zhou Qiao's goal is Yuzhou! Zhou Qiao snatched Yuzhou, and Yuan Shu was worried that Yuzhou would lose, so he had to transfer Sun Jian from Luoyang back to Yuzhou to compete with Zhou Qiao. ”

"But in this way, Yuan Shu and Sun Jian's plan to discuss Dong has completely failed!"

"The angry Yuan Shu and Sun Jian will definitely raise troops to the north to ask Yuan Shao for their crimes, and Yanzhou will bear the brunt, Yuan Shu will not spare Liu Dai, who married Yuan Shao."

"At that time, Yanzhou will become a place for Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu to fight, and the disaster of war will affect the entire Yanzhou."

"The scourge of war will be pervasive, the crops of the people will be destroyed, and Yanzhou will be full of hunger, just like last year's Qingzhou, hundreds of thousands of yellow scarves will rise up."

"Did Chen Yicao ever think that Yanzhou would have such a miserable future?"

The conspiracy of Yuan Shao deduced by Qingzhou's collective efforts, You Heng also kept it in mind.

At this moment, it was used to lobby Chen Gong, which was enough to shock Chen Gong.

"I thought that Pingyuan You Zhengping was only good at poisonous tongues and clever words, but I didn't expect to have such a profound insight into the general trend of the world." Chen Gong was secretly taken aback, and couldn't help but be in awe of You Heng.

Liu Dai attacked Cui Yan and Ying Shao, and Chen Gong was also paying close attention.

But the core of Chen Gong's concern is whether Liu Dai's move will affect Yanzhou's spring ploughing.

Cui Yan and Ying Shao are not dead, Chen Gong doesn't care.

After all, Chen Gong is currently also the councilor of Dongjun, and he is nominally under Liu Dai's command.

And Yanzhou will become a buffer zone for Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's battles, but Chen Gong did not expect it.

Chen Gong frowned and pondered.

"Your conjecture, or the judgment of Qingzhou Wenwu, is not impossible."

"Yuan Shaoxiang has a self-respecting identity, how could he easily marry Liu Yanzhou, and deliberately send his wife and daughter as hostages?"

"On the surface, it was to let Liu Yanzhou attack and kill Cui Yan and Ying Shao, but in fact, it was to obstruct Yuan Shu and Sun Jian's plan to fight against Dong, causing civil strife in Yuzhou."

"Qingxu and Henan have an alliance, Zhou Qiao snatched Yuzhou, and Liu Bei of Qingzhou must not sit idly by, so this Jizhou can't take care of it."

"Yuan Shao, it's time to prepare to take Jizhou!"

"Yuan Shu saw that he failed to fight Dong, and Yuan Shao also won Jizhou, so naturally he would not be comfortable in his heart, then Yanzhou would really become a place where Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu used troops."

Although Chen Gong's on-the-spot reaction was a little slower, his wisdom was not bad.

As long as Chen Gong is given enough time to deliberate, he can dispel the fog deliberately laid by Yuan Shao.

But after affirming Yuan Shao's conspiracy, Chen Gong couldn't help but grow anger in his heart.

As a native of Yanzhou, Chen Gong naturally hopes that Yanzhou will be safe and sound.

But now, Yuan Shao wants to let Yanzhou fall into the scourge of war, how can Chen Gong endure it?

When people sit at home, disaster comes from heaven, and no one can bear it.

If the Yuan brothers want to compete for a high level, do they have to come to Yanzhou?

Thinking of this, Chen Gong no longer hid his clumsiness: "Jiujiang is too shouwen and Ligong is a famous man in the world, and he recently resigned and returned to Chen Liu. ”

"I will go to Chen Liuyan to invite Wenli Gong, if Wen Ligong comes forward, even if Liu Yanzhou is unwilling, he has to give Wen Ligong a few thin noodles."

You Heng said with a smile: "Gong Wenli has also returned to Chenliu?" In the past, Chen Liuwen Ligong, Pingyuan Zilin Gong, and Lu Guowen Jugong were all famous for their rhetorical articles. ”

"I wonder if I'm lucky enough to go to Chenliu with Chen Yicao?"

Chen Gong wanted to refuse, but he thought that although the person in front of him was arrogant in his words, he was also famous for his rhetorical articles, so he agreed: "In this case, you will rest in the house for one night, and then go to Chen Liu tomorrow." ”

Jiujiang is too guarded by the border, good at rhetoric, good at debate, and was already famous when he was young, and he was as famous as Taoqiuhong in the plains and Kong Rong in Luguo.

In the first year of Zhongping, the general He Jin conquered the border and let him enter Luoyang, and set up a ceremony to receive the side of the room, even if the guests were full, but no one was not impressed by the occupation and resignation of the side of the room.

Kong Rong and Wang Lang, who were still officials of Situ Mansion at that time, both submitted their names to Bian Rang together and became friends.

Cai Yong, the speaker of the Lang, wrote a letter to Bian Rang in person, praising Bian Rang's ability, and Bian Rang was also promoted many times by the general He Jin.

In the sixth year of Zhongping, Bian Rang was appointed as the Taishou of Jiujiang County, but Bian Rang thought that he was not worthy of the position, and after staying for more than a year, he chose to resign and return to Chenliu County.

However, the resignation did not affect Bian Rang's reputation, and Bian Rang's "self-humility" made the scholars even more admired, believing that Bian Rang did not resign from an unmatched official position with his own talent, and virtue was an example for scholars.

After all, not everyone can give up a position due to their lack of self-reflection ability!

Knowing that it was the visit of Chen Gong, a famous man from Dongjun, Bian Rang was also quite happy.

Bian Rang has a talent and a reputation, and he is also arrogant, and those who can afford it are those who have real talent and real learning.

For those who look down on them, they will also be sarcastic.

In some characteristics, Bian Rang, like You Heng, is a straightforward person.

Therefore, when You Heng reported his identity, a glimmer of light flashed in Bian Rang's eyes: "Pingyuan You Zhengping, I have heard about it in the morning!" The recent circulation of Yanzhou's "Farming Fu" is from you, right? ”

"The writing is sharp, the current affairs are acupuncture, Liu Dai is not mentioned in every word, but Liu Dai is satirized in every word, and the rhetoric is a rare masterpiece in the world."

You Heng came all the way, and he was moved, so he wrote "Farming Fu" in Dongping Kingdom, and put all the spring ploughing things that Liu Dai attacked and affected the people without authorization into words.

There have long been good deeds who sent "Farming Fu" to Bian Rang, who is also good at resignation.

You Heng chuckled: "In front of Gong Wenli, how dare you be proud. Wen Ligong's article "Zhang Hua Fu" back then, using the past to satirize the present and have lofty intentions, has been recited to this day, and it is breathtaking every time! ”

"Zhang Hua Fu" describes that King Chu Ling built the magnificent Zhanghua Terrace with all his national strength in order to pursue a luxurious life.

And the king of Chu made a long night of drinking here, and enjoyed singing, dancing, feasting, and drinking.

Later, the king of Chu listened to the advice of the minister, stopped drinking the long night, worked hard to govern the country, educated the people, and made the state of Chu rich and prosperous again.

At the end of Emperor Ling, selling officials and lords was prevalent, and the ministers and officials enjoyed themselves to the fullest, and the people were miserable, and Emperor Ling also lost his initial fighting spirit, and began to follow Emperor Huan's example.

In this social environment, the ornate and far-reaching "Zhang Huafu" uses the past to satirize the present, needle current affairs, like a boulder suddenly falling into a calm lake, showing the arrogance of the scholars and their ardent expectations for the country vividly.

Bian Rang is also famous all over the world because of this.

Even You Heng, who prides himself on his talents, remains humble in front of Bian Rang.

Bian Rang sighed lightly: "Although I can write "Zhang Huafu", I can't advise the king, and I don't have enough talent to learn to govern one side." ”

"I have been in Jiujiang County for more than a year, and I thought that with my talents, I could educate the people and let the people of Jiujiang County live and work in peace and contentment, but I never thought that I would not be able to cure the corrupt officials in Jiujiang County."

"I don't want to have a vegetarian meal in Jiujiang County, so I can only choose to resign and escape the world."

"You can't advise the king to repay the country, and you can't govern the civil affairs to pacify the people."

"I'm just a useless rotten man after all!"

With Bian Rang's current fame, he claims to be a useless corrupt Confucian, which makes Chen Gong and You Heng very shocked.

Chen Gong said awe-inspiringly: "Don't be melancholy! Jiujiang County has accumulated deep shortcomings, and there is a lack of useful talents around Wenli Gong, not that Wen Li Gong is incompetent. ”

You Heng thought of the past when he first met Zheng Ping, and said: "Gong Wenli, in the past, when I first met Zheng Beijia in Qingzhou in Pingyuan County. ”

"Zheng Beijia once said to me: My generation of scholars, what I 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, learning must be beneficial to national affairs."

"I once asked Zheng Beijia if such knowledge is too utilitarian and not a gentleman's doing."

Zheng Beijia said again: merits and demerits, there are comments from posterity. 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, how do you know the ambition of the bird?"

"I was dissatisfied in my heart, so I recommended myself to ask for the post of a county commander and govern the people of a county."

"But Zheng Beijia said: 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 the major event of the soldier country."

"So I became a drum officer in the army!"

Chen Gong was taken aback: "With Zhengping's talent, even if he wants to sharpen himself with the army, he must at least join the army, Zheng Beijia only let Zhengping be a drum officer?" ”

You Heng smiled: "Although I am only a drum official, Zheng Beijia has really shown me what a real scholar is. The horse can govern the army, and the horse can govern the people. As far as Zheng Beijia is concerned, I am proud of it, and it is only used to cultivate temperament on weekdays. ”

"When I was decadent, Zheng Beijia persuaded me with "Buju": The ruler is short, the inch is long, the material is insufficient, the wisdom is unknown, the number is not enough, and the spirit is not clear."

"When it comes to governing a county, I may not be as good as an ordinary casual official who can't understand anything."

"But if you talk about persuasion, there are many talented people in the entire Qingzhou, and none of them can compare to me Youheng!"

"Just a few words can make the teenagers of Linzi City's official school angry."

"I also know how to write state documents that can be praised by scholars and understood by Li Shu."

"In the same way, I can also shoulder the heavy trust of Qingzhou Mu and come here to stop the war in Yanzhou!"

"The talent of Wenli Gong does not lie in governing a county, but in giving articles and scholarly fame, so that people like Liu Dai who attack without authorization and ignore the major events of spring ploughing can restrain their belligerent hearts, change with the people, and show grace to the world!"

The more I listened, the more frightened I became.

In Jiujiang County for more than a year, Bian Rang suffered the heaviest blow in his life.

has always been conceited of his talents, but when he was governing Jiujiang County, he was repeatedly played by a group of corrupt officials who looked down on him on weekdays.

So much so that Bian Rang finally had no choice but to feel that "he was not worthy", and finally chose to resign and go home.

This is a very serious blow to Bian Rang, who has been wondering whether what he is good at is just some corrupt talents who are useless for state affairs.

But You Heng's words made Bian Rang's long-standing depression gradually relieved.

"The ruler is short, the inch is long, the material is insufficient, the wisdom is unknown, the number is not grasped, and the spirit is not clear."

"I am conceited to be well-read and know all the classics, but I can't even comprehend Qu Zi's teachings."

Bian Rang sighed for a while, got up and bowed deeply to You Heng: "Zi said, the future is terrifying, how do you know if the future is not now?" Forty or fifty are unheard, and Si is not afraid. ”

"Your teachings, the order is suddenly opened!"

You Heng hurriedly helped Bian Rang up and saluted back: "I just borrowed the words of Zheng Beijia's past advice, and I can't afford to be a 'sir' from Wen Ligong." ”

"Duke Wenli can call me to express my words."

Bian Rang's eyes were full of admiration: "That is disrespectful, dare to ask Zheng Bei's name in Zhengping's mouth?" ”

You Heng's tone was more reverent: "Zheng Beijia is the son of Kang Chenggong of Beihai, he is peaceful, his words are scheming, and he helps Xuande Gong gain a foothold in Qingzhou with his own strength." ”

"Its talent is comparable to Jiang Ziya of the 800-year-old Xingzhou and Zhang Zifang of the 400-year-old Kaihan Dynasty!"

As one of Zheng Ping's little fans, You Heng can't find a more suitable word to describe Zheng Ping except for praising Zheng Ping with Jiang Ziya and Zhang Zifang.

But listening to Bian Rang and Chen Gong's ears, it was extremely shocking!

Jiang Ziya and Zhang Zifang, those are the most outstanding heroes in the early Zhou and early Han Dynasty, even if hundreds of years have passed, they are admired by today's scholars.

And You Heng praised Zheng Ping's talent so much, how could he not shock Bian Rang and Chen Gong?

Chen Gong gasped, and suddenly felt something: "Could it be that the one who saw through Yuan Shao's conspiracy is Qingzhou Zheng Beijia?" ”

You Heng nodded: "In addition to Zheng Beijia, there is also Tian Toyoda Yuanhao, a scholar in Jizhou, who has also seen through Yuan Shao's tricks. ”

"But what Zheng Beijia is better than Tian is that after seeing through Yuan Shao's tricks, Zheng Beijia has already made a plan to break the situation."

"I came to Yanzhou to lobby, but it's just the most insignificant part of the strategy to break the game!"

Chen Gong was even more surprised.

Bian Rang frowned: "Gongtai, Zhengping, what is the conspiracy of Yuan Shao you just talked about?" ”

Chen Gong said solemnly: "Duke Wenli, Yuan Shao is about to plunge Yanzhou into the scourge of war for his own selfish interests. ”

Under Bian Rang's surprised eyes, Chen Gong gave Bian Rang a concise statement of the information he had obtained from You Heng and his own inferences.

Bian Rang, who was already fierce and outspoken, couldn't help but start the case: "The battle between his Yuan brothers, why should the people of Yanzhou bear the disaster of the war?" ”
