Chang'an, Qinglong Temple.
"A gentleman said, learning cannot be done." Guan Ning raised his arm and shouted, "There is such a wise man in ancient times, how can people today not overcome it? Green, take it from blue, and blue, and ice, water, and cold, and water. At the same time, the years change, and the world moves, and the wind and clouds move! Those who stick to the rules and do not think about strength and seek one method to rule the world are all confused!"
In the past two days, Guan Ning has established his name with his successful annotation of the Book of Filial Piety and his voice on funerals. As more and more people gathered here, listening to him explaining the meaning of the scriptures and distinguishing the principles, Guan Ning has gradually become one of the representatives of the new generation.
Of course, there were also Lu Yu and Wang Kai's support. In such an occasion, Lu Yu's expression ability was actually not as good as Guan Ning's. During the last debate between Lu Yu and Wang Chang, Lu Yu also discovered a shortcoming like him. Wang Kai was even worse than Lu Yu, but he was just a good appearance. He couldn't say that everything in his belly was full of grass, but most of it was.
Therefore, Guan Ning was in front, Lu Yu provided support, and Wang Kai did logistics, forming a relatively stable small team that played its own strengths, attracting the attention of some people participating in the Qinglong Temple Great Treatise.
Some people think Guan Ning is right.
Others found that Guan Ning's team was doing well and wondered whether they should also form a team to learn and imitate it?
As for those who just watch the fun and think that the fun is the joyous soul that goes there, they are responsible for cheering and making fun of the atmosphere...
The small vendors outside Qinglong Temple also smiled all day long. The wind and frost covered their faces, and the fireworks eroded their hands and feet, but they still smiled with sincere and mellow smiles.
"Old Tiantou, yo, it's almost sold out again? Is the business good?" Ding Zhuang, who was in charge of patrol, came over, stretched his head and looked at it, and said with a smile.
Lao Tiantou quickly took out the noodles for another customer and prepared the sauce, "I'm so tired... Are you tired? Come here for a while, I'll cook a bowl for you? The sauce I prepared yesterday! It smells so good!"
Ding Zhuang waved his hand and said, "I'm on duty... See you back, see you back..."
After saying that, Ding Zhuang did not stop for a long time and greeted several other vendors. Then he pointed to some vendors who did not pay attention to hygiene and splashing or dripping stains, and asked them to clean up immediately.
A diner in a gray robe sat inside took a few bites of soup cakes, stretched out his thumb to praise Lao Tiantou's skills, which immediately made Lao Tiantou smile.
"I see this..." The gray-clothed diner pointed at Ding Zhuang with chopsticks, "It's okay, I didn't ask you to collect black money..."
"That's right, how dare you..." Without new customers, Lao Tiantou didn't mind chatting with the gray foodie, and said in a low voice, "I had collected it before, and there were still several waves... But a few days ago, I caught one, guess what? Just in front of me, I stripped naked and put the board on the spot... Tsk tsk tsk, it was bloody, I'm afraid I lost half my life! How many money can I collect if I collect black money? Half a life is worth it? Later I became more honest, no one dared to do anything, and I didn't even dare to eat and take it...
The gray-clothed foodie nodded, "It's necessary to have some rules..."
Lao Tiantou nodded, "Yes, yes, the rules...ah, this guest, what do you want to eat? Look at the meaty noise of my new work! It's so fragrant!"
When the gray-clothed foodie saw Lao Tiantou go to solicit business again, he smiled and lowered his head and started eating. Not long after, he ate a bowl of noodles, then wiped his mouth, took out two copper coins from his arms, and put them on the table, "I'm leaving the money!"
"Get ready?" Lao Tiantou kept in his hands, "Call, please go slowly!"
The gray-drinker walked out of the simple shed, then slowly moved forward with his hands behind his back. He walked through the long walkway and the small square, and then saw Guan Ning who was preaching.
Just as I was about to go up and listen to what Guan Ning was saying, a person next to me stopped in front of the gray food and clothing customer and hesitated for a moment, "Kan...Director Kan?"
The gray-clothed foodie, Kan Ze turned around and saw that it was Wang Chang, "Well, are you here too?"
Wang Chang pointed to Guan Ning and Lu Yu, "Lu Langjun, I'm a friend... I'm having free time today, so come and have a look..."
Kan Ze looked at Wang Chang's casual outfit, smiled, nodded, and said a few more gossips, saying goodbye to each other and left.
"It's still abiding by the rules..." Kan Ze took out a small notebook, then took out a brush, wrote a few words aside, then he took it back into his arms, and then slowly walked around Qinglong Temple with his hands behind his back.
If it weren't for the familiar, no one would have thought that this honest man in a cheap cloth robe would be the director of Youwen Department who is famous...
The crowds are surging.
Come with new topics after another.
Unconsciously, with the success of Guan Ning and others, many other teams appeared in Qinglong Temple, which were related to each other, agreed to learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and began to divide the labor and cooperate.
As the Three Auxiliary Land of Guanzhong, which was abandoned by the Eastern Han Dynasty for decades and hundreds of years, in the process of Fei Qian's rise in vain, as a brand new force of the Han Dynasty, it does not have much profound background. Strictly speaking, it can be regarded as a nouveau riche.
At least for a period of time when Fei Qian started to develop, most people thought so. Even after Guanzhong became rich in the middle, many people still thought it was nonsense to be rich and looked down on Fei Qian's group. But now, as the name of Qinglong Temple becomes more and more famous, more and more people are involved, and the transformation from economic to cultural advantages has caused many children of Shandong gentry to lower their heads.
At least in the current Han Dynasty, there are still some cultural people who focus on culture, not money. When cultural people of a dynasty are all going for money, they often have no culture.
…(╯︵╰)…
Almost at the same time, in Xu County, Emperor Liu Xie had to lower his head.
Liu Xie knew in his heart that the person who could really make a decision on this piece of land was not himself, but the person standing in front of him, Cao Cao.
Liu Xie himself is also in the process of constant change in his attitude towards the world.
As the lord of the world, Liu Xie is indeed less domineering, especially in front of Cao Cao. Although Liu Xie is taller than Cao Cao, it makes people feel that Liu Xie is shorter than Cao Cao.
"Your Majesty, what should I do if someone breaks the rules?" Cao Cao said slowly.
Liu Xie took a deep breath, "What kind of rules? Is it the rules of the Han Dynasty, or... the rules of the Prime Minister?"
Cao Cao smiled, as if he saw a kitten showing his mightyness while swaying his claws. "Rules are rules. If the rules of the world and His Majesty are divided, then there will be ministers and people, and then there will be men and women. Maybe there will be pigs, dogs, cows and sheep. There will be rules even if there are pigs, dogs, cows and sheep. There will be no rules afterwards..."
『…』 Liu Xie looked at Cao Cao, 『What is the rule?』
"It's an agreement." Cao Cao also looked at Liu Xie, "It's an agreement of man."
"Agreement?" Liu Xie frowned.
"Three chapters of law." Cao Cao sighed softly, "This is the rule."
『But…』 Liu Xie hesitated for a moment and did not finish speaking.
"The farmers agreed with the land, work hard in exchange for the growth of Zhuanghe, the herdsmen and livestock agreement, take good care of them, and get skin, flesh and blood..." Cao Cao said slowly, "The soldiers agreed with the battlefield, fight bravely, and gain merits... The officials agreed with the court, be diligent and upright, and shepherd the people... That's right, the problem is here. What if someone... does not abide by the agreement and does not follow the rules?"
Liu Xie:『…』
"Haha, does Your Majesty think that the empress is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who keeps the rules! If I hadn't been following this rule here, I wouldn't know how many people in the world would have been kings and how many people usurped the Han Dynasty!"
"If you want to break the rules, why should you do today?" Cao Cao laughed, "Do your Majesty agree?"
Liu Xie was speechless.
"Now I want to find out the ones who broke the rules..." Cao Cao slowly smiled and said slowly, "But some people are unwilling to... Thousands of obstacles and designs... These people who broke the rules, Your Majesty knows, the Wei Me, the Officials, and even the People know... But some people think that breaking the rules is actually a kind of rule?"
"I once set up colorful sticks at the north gate of Luoyang! The sticks killed those who made mistakes..." Cao Cao squinted his eyes, as if he was looking at the pictures in the past, "Then someone taught me the rules... It depends on people if he made mistakes. If someone made mistakes, it is not called making mistakes. If he was dismissed from his post for two days, he could be an official again. How could he be beaten to death with one stick? His Majesty thinks this rule... how is it?"
"I am the prime minister in Jinan. When I saw corruption and poison, I captured and killed him. The people were celebrating..." Cao Cao glanced at Liu Xie, and there seemed to be some indescribable meaning in his eyes. "Then some people said that it was a humble minister who was usurping and killing officials without any rules. Only the three locusts in the court, His Majesty personally allowed him to take it and kill him... In addition to the humble minister, Jinan Prime Minister..."
『Later, I became the captain of Xiyuan, but I saw that the army was full of old and weak, the equipment was all old and weak, the military pay was delayed, and the training was abandoned, and some troubled the emperor," Cao Cao laughed, 『Even if someone said that this was the rule... All the soldiers of the Han Dynasty were like this, and all the imperial guards in the world were like this...』
"My Majesty, is this rule... good or bad? Do you want it or don't want it?"
For some reason, Liu Xie felt a little panicked.
After a moment, Cao Cao spoke again.
"Your Majesty, I once admired Yingchuan culture and knew that there was an imperial village, prosperity and prosperity. Everyone, haha... All can gain knowledge and education. This is the top Han genius... "Cao Cao said in a deep voice, as if he was talking about a fact, or a tragic situation. "But now, he found that the imperial village was prosperous, but only a few people were rich. The culture was prosperous, but it was just a prosperous traitor... "
"The autumn harvest of autumn tuition in the court is the most important thing for the country, but these thieves intend to destroy Zhuanghe!"
"And I also shirked all the blame for the damage to Zhuanghe to the farmers and women! I accused the farmers and women of being cheated and cheating, and not following the orders, which led to the destruction of Zhuanghe!"
"In the name of the court, he arrested farmers and women wantonly, causing civil unrest, but did not want to comfort him, and even instigated soldiers from counties to suppress them!"
"It's because the food is low, there is no profit! I want to establish rules!"
"Haha, actually... it's not a low price or no profit, but it's more than a high price than a thousand times different?"
"There is no grain in the official warehouse, and the average price is empty talk! However, in the private warehouse, there are countless people who sell a thousand coins, some sell a thousand coins, some sell a thousand coins, and some sell a five thousand coins! But what is the government? Those who sell a five thousand coins together will arrest all those who sell a thousand coins, and only those who sell a thousand coins!”
"The people are suffering and the emotions are surging. Such corrupt officials killed thousands of coins and three thousand coins. They resented the food and grass to people with five thousand coins. What are the benefits they gained..."
"This is the current rule of the imperial country..."
Cao Cao looked at Liu Xie, "Now my ministers investigate corruption, destroy the fort, and search the house. Someone came to cry and say that his crimes would not end in death, and that the family was innocent, and that women and children were so pitiful... I dare to ask Your Majesty, are the people guilty? So I should suffer this disaster? When my wife and children were displaced, my wife and children were separated, and my family was destroyed, did these crying people cry for him and speak for him?"
"A great man, only natural disasters, actually cannot die many people. Only man-made disasters will cause bones to be exposed in the wild, and there will be no rooster crowing thousands of miles away!"
"Your Majesty, is this rule now... good or bad? Do you want it or don't want it?"
…(〃Dian`)q…
The other side.
Jiangdong.
When Zhou Yu walked into the backyard, the sound of the guzheng was still ringing. He walked up to the small building and entered the exquisite room. Xiao Qiao was stroking the zither strings in front of the window, and then smiled gently at him.
He sat down on the other side of the table, closing his eyes and listening to the woman's playing.
"I played wrong..."
Xiao Qiao wrinkled her nose and stopped, "I can't remember this part..."
Zhou Yu smiled, then took the guzheng, pondered for a moment, and started playing again from the part played by Xiao Qiao before.
A water-like melody flows open.
Xiao Qiao looked at the man in front of him in a daze. Even though time seemed to be more tolerant of him, Feng Shuang still ruthlessly changed some of his hair and beards and eyebrows.
After the soft melody like flowing water stopped, Zhou Yu opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Qiao, "Remember?"
"I forgot again..." Xiao Qiao smiled, "I'm here to see you..."
Zhou Yu laughed, "Then I don't care, you can practice it yourself."
After a while, Xiao Qiao gently stroked the strings of the zheng, turned her head, and smiled and said, "Is there anything wrong with my husband?"
Zhou Yu was silent for a moment, and then said: "Jiangdong... is going to be in chaos..."
Xiao Qiao's smile froze.
…╭(╯^╰)╮…
Huge school ground.
A flag that covers the sky and the sun.
There was a high platform in front of the school grounds, and Sun Lang strode towards the platform.
Below the high platform are more than a dozen tied Jiangdong officials.
Strong wind blew across the school ground.
The flags were roaring and the clouds rolled.
"Sir, following his father, fought on the battlefield, in Luoyang, in Yuzhou, in Jingzhou, and in Yangzhou!" Sun Lang, who looked quite similar to Sun Jian, was wearing military uniforms. "Sir, for the sake of the Sun family, did not care about life and death, and did not fear difficulties! But! But! She was imprisoned in Wangjiangtai for no reason! She was bullied day after day, year after year!"
Something seemed to erupt from Sun Lang's body and stirred up on the school ground.
"The rules of the Sun family are rewarded if they have merits, and punishment if they have mistakes!" Sun Lang shouted in a deep voice, "I followed my father to fight in the north and south to fight the battlefield. Have you done any merit? If you have merits, why are you imprisoned me? If you have merits, where are the mistakes?! Today, I want an explanation! Is there any other rules in the Sun family? Do you still have them? Do you still want them? What are the rules in Jiangdong now? Is it like a joke, saying that you have merits, saying that you have mistakes? Or is it like these cruel officials in the audience, whose merits and demerits are between their swords and pens?!"
Sun Lang waved his arm, and then someone opened all the boxes that were originally placed on the stage, then poured them down and fell on the tiny officials tied under the stage.
The heavy gold and silver flashed with dazzling light, shaking in the air, falling, and jingling.
"Everyone followed my father's robes back then! Do you know how the money in front of you came from? They were all copied from these people's homes!"
"These money, thousands of money, are they how much salary they have? No! They are all plundered!"
"You sweat and blood, and sacrifice your life. Even if you are injured or killed, your income is not as good as these worms with a slight move!"
『What is this rule?!』
"I ask you, what kind of world is this and what rules is it?!
The wind blew across the platform, and Sun Lang opened his hands in the wind and roared hard, "Today, I will take you to ask about the world, the world, the whole world, the whole Jiangdong, what is the rule!"
『Go and ask what the fucking rules are!』
…(σ｀д′)σ…
Guanzhong.
The Qinglong Temple became more and more lively.
The students who argued with each other on the street were blushing and spitting at each other, while the cumbersome and gorgeous dresses on the restaurant were playing the piano slowly without any influence amid the quarrels.
The fallen leaves on the tree floated down, and were then crushed onto the stone slab by the wheels of the moving caravan.
The geese that had been rushing to the evening market were chirping in a little impatient manner in the sky, trying their best to travel.
General Fei Qian, the cavalry general, sat obliquely in front of the window reading a book with a cup of hot tea.
Pang Tong replied to something in the writing, and then habitually stuffed the pen tip into his mouth and licked it, and continued to write.
Zao Zhi stood in front of the granaries, watching the busy officials transporting and measuring the grain and grass that were collected from the farm with some nervousness and expectations.
Zhen Mi was making the final handover at the Han Chamber of Commerce and then walked out. When she arrived at the door, Zhen Mi stopped for a moment, looked up at the nameplate of the Han Chamber of Commerce, then immediately raised her head and walked forward proudly. From this moment on, she had basically no connection with the Han Chamber of Commerce and became a female official who was in politics.
In the dark hut, Zhen Mi's clan brother had been released, but because he lost his money, he had to surrender here, cursing in fury, and the chaotic language was like a madman who had lost everything.
Several inspectors rushed into the tavern on the street and pulled out the drunk Hu man directly from the diner, pressing his head into the water tank on the street to prevent fire. The drunk Hu man was choked and fluttered on the water surface of the water tank. After a while, he was pulled out and collapsed on the ground with coughing, which became a little more awake and frightened.
"Are you a Qiang? a Hun? or a Xianbei?" A inspector squatted in front of the Hu people and changed several languages. "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you will understand... you will be fined 2,000 if you drink or cause trouble. It doesn't matter if you don't have money. We have a labor camp... take it away!"
Outside the city, inside Mr. Shuijing's manor.
Sima Hui wrote a good handwriting, waiting for him to dry in the autumn wind, then sat there and ordered the servants beside him, "This one is good, I will frame it later."
The sun shines in, the autumn wind strokes the paper, and some undried ink marks reveal such handwriting—
"No rules, no order can be achieved."
Chapter completed!
