"What can you do if you stay? You don't draw a bow and shoot arrows, you don't fight hand-to-hand, you're in Lou, what can you do other than to set aside some soldiers to protect you? ”

Qu Tian looked at his body like a fat pig, although the dog-headed military advisor didn't say it well, but it was all the truth. His heart was a little shaken.

"But ......"

"You and these nobles are the pillars of the Princess!" said the kobold military advisor, looking at the nobles around him.

"yes, yes. ”

"We are the heart of Lou. ”

"Only we who are alive can we live. ”

The nobles nodded one after another, their faces shining as if they had been covered with gold leaf.

"That's right, so you have to survive so that you can lead these nobles to revive the Lou again!"

Qu Tian asked in a low voice, "Are you sure that Gongzi Zhong has left Yanlou?"

"Yes, of course. The kobold military master rubbed his hands excitedly, "Although they didn't say hello, I confirmed with my own eyes that the two of them left, they are very busy, you don't have to worry about that kind of thing." ”

"......" Qu Tian was silent.

"You have a good rest, I'll be out of company for a while. ”

Seeing that Qu Tian was no longer entangled, the dog-headed military advisor greeted him.

A centurion came over and took away the kobold military division, leaving Qu Tian alone in a daze at the head of the ship.

"Is it really okay for us to leave Gongzi in this way?" asked the centurion worriedly in a small corner of the ship, "if he learns that we are leaving, he will not spare us." ”

It turned out that what the dog-headed military advisor said about Gongzi Zhong had already left Yan Lou, all of them were deceived by Qu Tian, and he didn't see Xiong Zhong leave Yan Lou Yi at all.

The dog-headed military advisor looked at the centurion with disgust: "Are you stupid? Gongzi Zhong has gone crazy, he wants us to pull out all the corpses and burn them, do you think this is possible? Not to mention those under the floor, there are many corpses stuck in the cracks of the city wall, how to pull them out? Tear down the city wall or burn it with the city wall? Not to mention the ones in the well. What's more, the momentum of his appearance at that time was to kill all the officials of our Yanlouyi, no matter what we did, we would not escape death. ”

"But......" the centurion looked nervously.

This is, a squire brought a plate with fine food and wine.

"Good, good. The kobold military advisor praised the attendant, and was about to let the other party leave, but he remembered something and said, "Go, get one for the elder of the Yi too." ”

After speaking, the dog-headed military advisor couldn't wait to open the food plate and feast on a mouthful of food and wine.

When he turned his head, he saw the centurion who was still worried about spinning in place, and couldn't help but say: "Tsk, really, don't worry, this Chu country is not the Chu country of the Xiong clan alone, and the Qu clan!"

We just need to hug the thighs of the elder Yi, and we will survive, and maybe we can go further! Come on, come on, eat something with me, and drink with me. I've been busy all day since last night, and I'm tired. ”

The centurion was moved by the kobold military master's words, sighed as if resigned to his fate, and sat down across from him.

....................................

On deck, the nobles were reeling at the loss of the scourge.

"This time, these untouchables have lost so much that at least five hundred households have disappeared, right?" said a nobleman in purple clothes.

"Not only that, but if these untouchables don't survive this night, they may lose 700 households. Another nobleman in orange clothes said.

"But it doesn't matter, as long as you are willing to give these untouchables an acre or two, there will naturally be a lot of people pouring over, and then the city will return to its old ways. The third chubby nobleman said with a smirk.

"In the final analysis, the Chu State is the Chu State of our nobles after all, if it were not for us nobles and untouchables, it would be possible to support this huge Chu State. After the purple-robed nobleman finished speaking, he also looked at the civilians who got on the ship with unkind eyes.

Although the sporadic commoners on the side heard the taunts and conversations between the nobles, they lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything at all, and they did not even dare to make contact with them.

"Hmph, a group of wastes who only know how to eat, drink and enjoy themselves are ashamed to speak up, one pariah at a time?!" A stern voice sounded, drenching the blood of the dogs scolded by the nobles, making the hearts of the nobles burn.

"Who dares to say that about the pillars of our group of countries?!"

The purple-robed nobleman turned around and saw an old woman dressed in a gorgeous costume.

"High ...... Gao's?!"

The nobles were silent on the spot.

"Hmph, if it weren't for what you call 'untouchables', you wastes would have sown seeds, planted seedlings, harvested, fished, hunted, grown fruits and vegetables, and were useless, just parasitic on others. ”

The nobles were powerless to resist Gao's sharp words, so they could only remain silent, pretending not to hear anything.

"Get out of the way, get in my way. The old woman said to the chubby nobleman.

"Sorry......" The chubby aristocrat lowered his head and silently moved out of the way.

Seeing the Gao clan leave the deck, the nobles breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong with this old lady, so angry?" asked the chubby nobleman in a low voice.

"I heard that it was because Gao's only grandson died in the chaos last night. Alas...... The white-haired man sent the black-haired man ......" the purple-robed nobleman said in a regretful tone, but no matter how he listened to it, he felt a sense of schadenfreude.

"Isn't that ...... Is the Gao clan going to die?" another nobleman asked.

"Who's to say it isn't?"

In the cabin, the old lady of the Gao family came to a wooden box, groped the edge of the wooden box and muttered: "The Gao family, it will never be cut off because of me, absolutely not!"

....................................

Yedi, there is a very legendary figure in history here, his name is Shen Zhuliang.

The name of Shen Zhuliang may be a little unfamiliar to everyone, but if you talk about the allusion of "Ye Gong is a good dragon", everyone must suddenly understand.

Shen Zhuliang is the protagonist of "Ye Gong is a good dragon", Ye Gong.

Legend has it that Ye Gong is very fond of dragons, and likes to decorate all aspects of life with dragons.

Dragons are carved on the belt hook and wine vessels, and dragons are also carved and decorated in the living room, and the people under his rule will be brought to worship the dragon every day.

He loved dragons so much that after being known by the true dragon in the sky, he descended from the sky to Ye Gong's house. The dragon's head was on the windowsill to visit, and the dragon's tail reached into the hall.

When Ye Gong saw that it was a real dragon, he turned around and ran, so frightened that he seemed to have lost his soul, frightened, and couldn't control himself.

From this point of view, Ye Gong doesn't really like dragons, he only likes things that look like dragons instead of dragons.

This story, with a very vivid metaphor, spicily satirizes the characters of Ye Fang, and profoundly exposes their bad thoughts and bad styles that only sing high-profile and are not pragmatic.

If you only look at this story, do you think that "Ye Gong" Shen Zhuliang is actually a person who is not worthy of his name and is inconsistent with his appearance?

But...... Is this really the case?

Of course not.

Ye Gong Shen Zhuliang appeared for the first time in the battle of exterminating the barbarians in the Chu State. The barbarian clan, in the Ruzhou generation of Henan, is a barbarian tribe in the north of the Chu State (in fact, the two who fought were regarded as barbarians at that time, but the Chu State was more capable of topping).

Ye Gong, as an assistant, helped the then coach Zuo Sima to attack, and defeated the two cities of the Barbarian Clan, Liang and Huo, overnight, and finally directly captured the Barbarian City.

Ye Gong is not only good at commanding operations, but also good at governing fiefdoms, and soon after Ye Gong took office in Yeyi, he learned that the water in the place was serious and the people were miserable. Since bamboo slips are not suitable for drawing water conservancy construction drawings, he can only use his own walls as drawings to paint ditches and canals.

And formulated a project plan for the construction of the east and west sides, and mobilized the people of Yeyi to start construction. The west is mainly used for flood control, and the east is mainly used for water storage. The construction of the east and west sides can be said to have created a precedent for the management of small watersheds in ancient China. The ruins of the east and west sides still exist today.

Then why was Ye Gong hacked for so many years because of the allusion of "Ye Gong is a good dragon"?

First of all, let's talk about how the "dragon" in "Ye Gong Hao Dragon" came about.

"Dragon" is because when governing the leaf land, Ye Gong considered that in the customs of the leaf land, the dragon king is a supernatural god in charge of clouds and rain, so he painted a dragon on each water outlet and called it "faucet" in order to make the wind and rain smooth.

There are two meanings in this, one is to use the belief in gods such as dragons to restrain the behavior of the people, and the other is a beautiful spiritual sustenance.

The main reason for being hacked is because of offending Confucianism.

Ye Gong is a good man and likes to discuss politics with literati. When Confucius heard that Ye Gong had made outstanding political achievements, he deliberately went to Ye Di from Cai Di to exchange statecraft with Ye Gong, and by the way, he sought an official position for himself.

During this period, Ye Gong not only consulted Confucius on statecraft, but also discussed with him the issue of ethical and moral standards.

Confucius advocated that when relatives commit crimes, they should "hide their relatives", while Ye Gong advocated "righteousness and annihilation of relatives".

Ye Gong said: "I have a frank and straightforward person, and he will denounce his father for stealing sheep. ”

And Confucius said: "My frank and straightforward person is different from yours, the father hides it for his son, and the son hides it for his father, this is really straightforward!"

This dialogue clearly shows the very different political philosophies of the two: Ye Gong paid more attention to the law of the state, while Confucius paid more attention to the gift of family affection.

It is not a good comment on the views of Ye Gong and Confucius, and it is arbitrarily asserted that it will be sprayed indiscriminately by the three people of "Jing Confucian", "Bai Zuo" and "Gongzhi".

But after this incident, Ye Gong must have a bad impression of Confucius.

In the second year after the two discussed politics, the then king of Chu wanted to hire Confucius and his disciples, but was opposed by the king of Chu's elder brother, Prince Shen.

"The king's ministers are not as virtuous as Zigong, Yan Hui, Zilu, and Zaiyu, if he is appointed, then can the state of Chu still retain power?

The king of Chu felt that it made sense, so he gave up the idea.

At that time, Confucius did not enter Yingdu, and the only person who had contact was Ye Gong, and Ye Gong and Wang Zishen had a good relationship, so it was easy to speculate that Ye Gong definitely told Wang Zishen about his contact with Gongzi.

Confucius failed to seek official positions in Yedi and Chudi, and could not display his political ambitions, so it can be said that when he traveled around the world, he ran into walls everywhere, and his disciples used a very exaggerated metaphor to satirize Ye Gong because of the fact that "Ye Gong is a good scholar but does not use Confucius".
