Chen Jing suddenly slapped his palm and said with a smile: "I almost forget, it's really that he disappeared for too long." ”

Speaking of this, he smiled and said, "I really thought that there must be a person who must have history books there, but it's just ......."

"Just what?"

"Is it just this person...... You'd better not come to the door!"

Zhou Ang was surprised when he heard this, and asked, "Why?"

Chen Jing looked back, looked left and right, and then didn't care about the scorching sun in the courtyard, pulled Zhou Ang's arm, and pulled him into the courtyard, until he felt that he had been far away from everyone, and then he spoke: "This person's surname is Lu, his name is Duan, and his name is Zhengshan, and he is a native of our Lingzhou." If you talk about knowledge and ability, it is naturally one top and one good. It may even be the best erudite Confucianism in our Tang Kingdom, and even in the world. ”

"But there's a layer of hindrance here......"

Without waiting for Zhou Ang to ask anything, Chen Jing had already taken the initiative to say: "When I was a child, I heard the story of our Prime Minister Lu. This person is seventeen years old, twenty-three years old has been an official Qianshi, and then once became a general, only in his thirties, he has already been in the position of prime minister, and he is the bull's ear of the Tang Dynasty. There are many, many stories about him, but that doesn't matter anymore. ”

"More than 20 years ago, he lost power and was driven out of Chang'an City by the prime minister in the current court, and as soon as he was pushed to the end, he returned to our Lingzhou and began to live in seclusion. Today, more than 20 years have passed, and his two sons are not allowed to go out, not to mention, the successive Taishou has arrived, let alone visiting, the first thing is to cross-examine the behavior of our former prime minister, there is no problem, and you have to find a fault and reprimand it!"

"Why? Isn't it that today's prime minister treats him like a tiger and hates him to the bone? Although more than 20 years have passed, his hatred is still undiminished, so the people below have to try their best to cater to him?"

Therefore, anyone who has some ideas in his career or has some scruples about his reputation will never dare to have anything to do with him. Don't talk about that, just because you are in the yamen now, it is extremely inconvenient in terms of identity, once you have any dealings with him, you will immediately be targeted by the Taishou Mansion, and you can't say that you will be in trouble immediately. That's why I said that although he is a member of the generation, he must have a rich collection of books, and it is said that he is especially fond of reading history, but this person, you must not have anything to do with him. ”

"I specially said to you this time, I am afraid that you will ask someone to ask for history books in the future, in case you hear about this person's head, that person knows nothing about it, only knows that this person is a scholar, but he doesn't know the taboo, you rashly run to find someone to borrow books, but you won't trouble in the future?"

Zhou Ang basically understood, but there was still a lot of confusion in his heart.

The prime minister in the court today, of course Zhou Ang knows, this person's name is Xu Liang, who has been in charge of the Tang Dynasty for more than 30 years, and has won two major wars against the Xianbei people in the north and the Han in the east, and has carried out changes internally, and he has been in power for 30 years, and has supported the two emperors of the Tang Dynasty.

And for the earlier Zhou Ang, whether it was out of official intentional publicity and guidance, or his own pursuit of fame and fortune, Xu Liang, who was brilliant in his career, was the idol of young people.

Such a good impression was naturally retained in his memory, and it was inherited by the current Zhou Ang.

But...... How could he suppress a person like this?

How can he use this to suppress a person who has been out of power for more than 20 years?

Zhou Ang couldn't help but ask Chen Jing this question, but Chen Jing just shook his head with a smile and said, "Let's live in a corner, the affairs of the court are just hearsay, where can we really figure out the twists and turns inside?"

That's just as well.

Zhou Ang nodded, acquiesced to Chen Jing's statement, and then saw that he didn't seem to have anything else to say, so he thanked him again, and then went back a little sullenly.

He really wanted to find some history books on his own plane to read.

In the systematic education of modern society that he received when he was young, the core was to cultivate the so-called three views, that is, world outlook, outlook on life, and values, and he himself received education under this system for more than ten or twenty years, and his thoughts, knowledge, and opinions were also established on the basis of these three points.

Isn't worldview the world?

Now the problem is that the world I live in has changed, and it is not the same world as before. Of course, the original set of world views needs to be updated.

If he had some thoughts about this point before, but he was not strong about it, then the circle when Master took him around before leaving, taking himself to see the mountains and seas and the world, can be said to have greatly impacted his various judgments about the world in the past.

As a result, his desire to understand the world more deeply began to grow stronger.

Reading history, local history, is obviously one of the best ways to understand the current world, observe the world, and moderately revise your worldview.

It's just a pity that although there is a fairly scholarly atmosphere here, everyone attaches more importance to things like poetry and essays, and some history books are also officially revised and specially eulogized to the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Zhou Ang had seen those things before, and there were still many memories in his mind, to be honest, in Zhou Ang's opinion now, it was really true and false that was not clear.

At this moment, he went back to sit down boringly, bored, and got up to make tea for himself, facing the empty office at this time, he suddenly thought of a question: What kind of person is worthy of the current prime minister who is in power for decades?

Even if this Lu Duan and Lu Zhengshan Gong used to be the prime minister, he must have his own followers and even henchmen, but Prime Minister Xu Liang has been in office for twenty or thirty years, and it has been more than twenty years since he expelled Lu Duan back to his hometown, and he must not know how many years earlier he has cleared up his influence in the government and the opposition.

But he is still extremely jealous of this existence!

not only ordered every Taishou to strictly guard him and reprimand him at every turn, but also cut off the path of his two sons - this is ruthless enough!

The so-called "family" has to be a generation after generation of officials and officials, and the friendship and influence of generation after generation have always been maintained in order to become a family. Like the Chen family, people are officials from generation to generation, and each generation will choose outstanding talents to continue to be prominent, so it can be called a family. Every time the Taishou arrives, he has to go to Chen's house to visit and talk, and make friends.

But like the Lu family, Lu Duan was beaten down in his prime, and the next two sons were unable to become officials, so even if this family had been in the family for many years, in the next generation, there were no officialdom connections at all, and the so-called family actually did not exist.

It's so ruthless!

But the more this is the case, the more curious Zhou Ang becomes.

Chen Jing Shibo thinks that he is probably the most outstanding erudite Confucian today!

And this man is also very good at governing history......

Just thinking about it, Zuo Ci and Fang Jun came back.

They secretly drank again at noon.

However, even Gao Jing acquiesced, but asked, of course Zhou Ang would not have much to do.

Besides, they all know in their hearts, and drinking is just a drink, in fact, it will not affect official business at all.

Seeing Zuo Ci, Zhou Ang suddenly remembered a train of thought, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Ziyi, you are the most familiar with all kinds of things in our yamen besides Brother County Zhu and Brother Ziyu, and there is one thing that I can't ask you." ”

When Zuo Ci heard this, he immediately said, "What's the matter?" Zi Xiu said. ”

Zhou Ang asked: "Do the people who are usually responsible for monitoring our yamen include some special people?"

Zuo Ci thought about it, first shook his head, and then said: "If you want to say that there is, there are also people, but they are not important characters." You also know that our main responsibility is to know the activities of monsters and various secret sects, and we don't care about other things, so our eyes are mainly responsible for collecting information everywhere, and the words of the people who monitor them...... The county government is actually under our surveillance, you know this, does this count?"

"Uh......"

Of course, this Zhou Ang also knows. But in fact, the so-called monitoring of the county government is not actually surveillance, it should be said to be some kind of protection of the county government - the official practitioners at the same level have the duty to protect the local government and officials at all levels nearby, and the four important officials in the county, such as the county government and the county order, are of course under the protection of the county Zhu Yamen.

So Zhou Ang shook his head and said, "Don't count, right?" I just suddenly remembered and asked randomly. What about the other than that? Surveillance of a specific person?"

Wei Ci waved his hand and said, "This is not under our control! Even if there are important people who are required to be monitored by the imperial court, it is the responsibility of the Taishou Mansion and the county government, and it has nothing to do with us. ”

"Oh......"

When Zhou Ang heard this, he suddenly had an idea in his heart.

In other words, such "secular" affairs are all in charge of the officials and yamen who manage secular affairs, that is to say, no matter how big Lu Duan's past officials did, he and the official cultivators are not on the same line - the problem arises again, after all, he is the former prime minister, and he must know about the existence of official cultivators.

Of course, theoretically speaking, if he has been suppressed to the point where he has been suppressed, the court will definitely not still send cultivators to protect him, and without the protection of cultivators, the person who is responsible for monitoring and guarding him is not on the line of official cultivators—this is a loophole.

Since I consulted Uncle Zheng Huan at the beginning, I have been working hard to study and practice illusion art recently, and my level is still limited, but I have finally mastered it.

Illusion, on the other hand, is capable of guiding and misleading everyone in its area to a large extent.

That is certain.

It's just that...... The question is, in order to borrow books to read, I don't know if people really have them, and if they do, I don't know if they will lend them to me, so I take this risk, is it worth it?
