Volume II: Yin and Yang Harmony Chapter 52
Chapter 52: Visiting Zhuozhou, a Famous Scholar, Handing Over the Alliance
He Hanwen's question was a little embarrassing for Liu Deran, so he had to bury his head in eating.
Liu Bei saw that the atmosphere at the banquet was a little awkward, so he gently lifted the topic and asked, "Hanwen called me to wait, I must have an idea?"
He Hanwen got off the donkey and followed Liu Bei's words and said, "Yes." The Tsing Yi Gang is one of the troubles, and Hanwen wants to get rid of it. But the Tsing Yi gang is powerful, and there is a royal family of the Youzhou Wang clan secretly lurking behind it. More than 100 of them are eagle dogs, and Hanwen is alone, if there is no complete strategy, he will be harmed by it!"
Gongsun Zhan didn't think so when he heard this, he said proudly: "Isn't Hanwen afraid?"
He Hanwen thought to himself: Your Gongsun Zhan is eight feet tall, powerful, powerful, and has armor soldiers in the government, so he is naturally not afraid. How can I act recklessly, who is alone?
Seeing that He Hanwen was silent and did not answer, Gongsun Zhan continued: "Zhan has armor soldiers, Hanwen only needs to inquire about the news and learn about his stronghold, and the warriors in the Zhan Lingfu will rush to kill and take the head of Zuocen's anti-thief like a bag!"
He Hanwen couldn't say anything, so he had to give Liu Bei a look - Gongsun Zhan was the only one who could listen to Liu Bei and Lu Zhi's words.
Liu Bei saw He Hanwen frowning, and immediately knew what he meant, so he persuaded him with good words: "Brother Bogui, this matter needs to be considered in the long run. If the brother rushes into the lair of thieves, the brother believes that the brother can take Zuo Cen's head among the ten thousand armies. But when my brother is exhausted, won't he be lost in battle?"
Gongsun Chan also nodded when he heard this. He Hanwen continued: "Brother Bogui, Brother Xuande is reasonable. And if we do, we will cut down the grass and eradicate the roots. Wang Anyang's heart turned away from the Han family, and we should unite loyal ministers and become the Son of Heaven. Hanwen heard that Liu Yu and Liu Gong were relatives of the Han family, and although they were young, they were upright and honest. This sincerity can be united to discuss Wang Kai. Wang Kai preys on the common people and does evil, but as a prominent clan, he can't compete with it by relying only on a few of us. Let Liu Gong use his family relationship to confront him head-on, and we will destroy Zuo Cen first. When everyone gets all the stolen goods, they will attack together, but they can get rid of this national thief, which is to support the Han family and defend the righteous way!"
When they heard this, they all said that it was a great plan. Liu Deran asked: "We are not familiar with Liu Gong, although we have the intention to get rid of the thief, but how can we win the trust? I am afraid that it will not be compatible." β
He Hanwen had already thought of it, so he told everyone what the matchmaker said to him, so as to ease his heart: "There is a hermit outside Zhuo County, named Mr. Zhiyuan, who has good friends with various families, including the old lady of Gong Liu's family. Jinhanwen was recommended by a strange woman, and it can be seen that Mr. Zhiyuan. Hanwen is willing to rely on his three-inch incorruptible tongue to say that Mr. Zhiyuan wrote a book to Mrs. Liu, if you can see it, this matter can be determined!"
Gongsun Zhan: "Then what are we waiting for? Why don't we go and invite Mr. Zhiyuan to come to Hanwen Mansion to talk about it?"
Liu Bei: "Brother Bogui is slow. Bei has also heard of Mr. Zhiyuan's name, this is a highly respected person, and he must visit him in person. It's getting late today, brother, don't be in a hurry, etiquette must not be lost. β
He Hanwen: "What Brother Xuande said is very true, today is not an auspicious day. Tomorrow is auspicious, why don't you wait for a night in the house, wait for tomorrow morning, freshen up, bring gifts, and the four of us brothers go to visit together?"
Gongsun Zhan didn't have any objections this time, and nodded yes: "According to what Hanwen said, I have the right to stay and visit Mr. Zhiyuan early tomorrow morning!"
Liu Bei and He Hanwen looked at each other and smiled, and nodded.

The next day, He Hanwen, Liu Bei, Gongsun Zhan, and Liu Deran rode horses from He Mansion in Zhuo County, Xiaozhu and Hongniang followed in a car with gifts, and Da Niu and Zhang Bo guarded, and in less than half a day, they found a small road and moved towards the seclusion of Mr. Zhiyuan.
The path is difficult to walk, the car can not pass, it is stopped, the little bamboo red lady and other female dependents get off the car and walk, the big cow Zhang Bo carries gifts, turns over the hill, but sees a bamboo forest, the winding path is secluded, there seems to be a curling smoke rising in the depths, and the insects and birds can also be heard from time to time.
He Hanwen pointed to the bamboo forest in front of him and sighed: "True hermit! If Hanwen is lucky and wants to find a place to live in seclusion, that's it." β
Gongsun Zhan was displeased when he heard this, and said, "Hanwen doesn't want to make contributions and serve the country, but wants to live in seclusion?"
He Hanwen heard that Gongsun Zhan was unhappy, so he explained: "Brother Bogui's discrepancy is not Hanwen's boasting. If Hanwen is old and can't help the Lord to calm the world, wouldn't it be the same as the incompetent people?"
Gongsun Zhan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and laughed: "Hanwen is so domineering! How can we lag behind after making meritorious achievements? Why don't we compare them, and in ten years, see how famous we are?"
He Hanwen smiled, was noncommittal, did not speak, and only enjoyed the scenery here as he walked forward.
Liu Deran saw He Hanwen intoxicated and asked, "Does Hanwen love bamboo?"
He Hanwen replied: "Yes." Can the workers know the "four gentlemen"?
Liu Deran was puzzled: "I don't know, I want to hear the details." β
Of course He Hanwen knew that Liu Deran didn't know, this Meilan, Zhuju and the Four Gentlemen were only said in the Ming Dynasty, but during the Three Kingdoms period, those famous families also liked to use bamboo to compare their noble qualities.
Therefore, he said: "Those who have plums, orchids, bamboos, and chrysanthemums are the four gentlemen." Brother Bogui is a scholar of the Bo Ao Xue, a noble scholar, for Mei Ye; Brother Xuande is a deep valley and a virtuous man in the world, and he is for Lan Ye; Gong Shou is elegant and elegant, and a humble gentleman is for Zhuye; and Hanwen is a chrysanthemum! It is Mei Lan and Zhu Ju, which is actually the ears of the four of us! Hanwen is therefore the "Four Gentlemen". β
Gongsun Chan laughed proudly: "Hanwen praises it!" β
As for Liu Deran and Liu Bei, although they also enjoyed it, they were not as profligate as Gongsun Zhan, but more reserved.
Liu Bei: "Hanwen hasn't said why Ju yet!"
He Hanwen said: "Hehehe, don't blame Brother Xuande, Hanwen wants to be Lingshuang elegant, and the hermit outside the world is also!"
Liu Bei secretly admired when he heard it, but Gongsun Zhan didn't understand what he meantβhe didn't care.
He Hanwen didn't care if Gongsun Chan could really understand his mentality, for now, he only needed to focus on eliminating the forces of the Tsing Yi Gang.
After walking for less than an hour, a thatched house seemed to be lifted through the fog and displayed in front of everyone. I saw a white-bearded old man, painting on a stone table in front of the grass house, singing while painting: "
The Yu family has thatched huts, and the south side is planted with bamboo.
At the beginning of summer, the green sun shines on people's clothes.
Put it in a small couch, it's very cool!
Autumn and winter exchanges, take the fence to make the screen bamboo.
Vertically cut off its two ends, and Heng'an thought it was a window.
The white paper is pasted, and the wind is getting warmer.
Frozen flies touch the paper, and Dongdong makes drums.
A bamboo shadow is messy, isn't it a natural picture!
The bamboo I paint is in the sun!"
