Han Dao world

"Jingzhao Sanxiu?" Mi Heng shook his head. "Have not heard."

Kong Rong frowned and didn't say anything, but there was a trace of uneasiness between his brows.

After entering the city, Kong Rong went directly to Taiwei's mansion and asked to see Yang Biao.

After a while, Yang Biao came out from inside, stretched out his hand when he saw Kong Rong, and smiled all over his face. "Wenju, why are you here now?"

Kong Rong smiled slightly, greeted Yang Biao, and introduced Mi Heng to Yang Biao.Yang Biao didn't know Mi Heng, and he didn't pay much attention to it. He just bowed his head to salute, and led Kong Rong into the door.

"Wenju, you are from the east, do you know about Sikong and Zhang Jili?"

"I heard." Kong Rong was a little embarrassed. "I am so eager to enter the court, that's why I came here. I heard that there are some problems with the posthumous posthumous title?"

"Well, it's okay to talk about other things. He died in Yuan Benchu's camp, which inevitably makes people suspicious."

"Suspicion? Suspicion... what doubt?"

"Was he killed by Yuan Benchu, or...was mad at Yuan Benchu?" Yang Biao led Kong Rong to the hall, divided the guests and hosts into seats, and ordered them to serve wine and food. "The attendant who came back to report the funeral said, before Zhang Jili died, did you go to see him?"

Kong Rong was silent for a moment. "I did go to see him, and... he was rude."

Yang Biao sighed, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

He received the news that before Zhang Xi's death, Kong Rong had visited him, so he suspected that Zhang Xi's death had something to do with Kong Rong.Seeing Kong Rong's expression now, his last glimmer of hope was gone.

"Wenju, since you're here, please settle down. Let's work in my Taiwei's mansion first."

Kong Rong frowned. "Thank you Wenxian for your care, but my trip to the west is not to seek an official, but to do my part for the mourning behind Zhang Jili."

"How do you try your best? Did you say something wrong, or did he do it wrong?"

Kong Rong frowned even tighter. "It's because I was impulsive, and I said it too seriously."

"In that case, who still believes in you?"

"Can't I correct my mistakes?" Kong Rong couldn't help raising his voice.

"Of course it can be changed." Yang Biao said slowly: "But before that, do you want to tell what you said one by one, so that the emperor can know where you are wrong?"

Kong Rong gasped, his eyes widened. "Do you still want... like this?"

Yang Biao shook his head. "Wenju, you don't know anything about the Son of Heaven."

Kong Rong was speechless.

When Yang Biao's father, Yang Ci, was a Situ, he was a Situ. He knew Yang Biao very well and knew that Yang Biao was very capable and a pragmatic person.Since he said such a thing, it would be better for him not to see the emperor for the time being, otherwise not only would he not be able to get things done, but he might even cause even bigger troubles.

Mi Heng said: "According to Taiwei's wishes, so what? With such a delay, how can Sikong get into the ground?"

Yang Biao turned his head to look at Mi Heng, and then looked at Kong Rong.Kong Rong said, "Zhengping is my little friend, and we can talk about everything." After a pause, he added, "He was there at that time."

Yang Biao snorted: "The most urgent thing right now is not to enter the soil, but to make up for the vacancy. Sikong is one of the three lords. He is in charge of water and soil affairs and cannot be absent for a long time. This must be Zhang Jili's last wish. If you want to make up for your mistakes, you can Spend some time on this, instead of begging for a posthumous posthumous title for Zhang Jili."

Just as Mi Heng was about to speak, Kong Rong stopped him. "Wen Xian, there are many people who are qualified to be Sikong, why..."

"You say, who is suitable?"

"Zhou Jiamou."

"He is in Jiangdong and cannot take office, and he is only Doctor Guanglu now."

"Although he is Doctor Guanglu now, he used to..."

"The previous experience cannot prove that he is qualified to be Sikong, unless Sun Ce and Zhou Yu enter the court immediately."

Kong Rong opened his mouth and finally realized the problem.

Nowadays, the appointment of Sangong by the imperial court is not done by the ministers, but by the approval of the emperor.If the person's resume cannot convince the emperor, the election is meaningless.

This is a good thing and a bad thing.

In the past, the position of the three princes was vacant, and the power belonged to the emperor and the general, so the emperor didn't care much about who was the three princes, and the ministers elected whoever they liked.Now the emperor wants to return the power to the Sangong, and if he attaches great importance to the Sangong, it is not enough for the ministers to reach an agreement.

They must recommend competent people, instead of just considering fame and virtue, merit is the key.

Yang Biao in front of him is a typical example.

He was a false captain who had presided over the military in northern Xinjiang for many years, but he had never been truly recognized by the emperor, so he was still a fake captain, not a real captain.

Kong Rong thought for a while, then said, "Where is Sun Junrong?"

The corners of Yang Biao's mouth twitched. "Aren't you afraid that Zhang Jili will die in peace?"

Kong Rong was stunned for a moment, then patted his forehead in frustration.

The relationship between scholar Sun Rui and Zhang Xi was indeed very good, but after Zhang Xi's death, none of the three princes in the court were from the Kanto region, and this was definitely not the result Zhang Xi wanted to see.

Shi Sun Rui did meet the conditions of Sangong, but he was from Guanzhong.

Even if Shi Sun Rui regarded himself as a scholar, Zhang Xi didn't think that he would definitely speak for the people of Kanto.He definitely still hopes that a Kanto native will fill this vacancy, representing the interests of the Kanto people.

So far, no suitable candidate has been found.

A moment of self-importance ruined all Zhang Xi's hard work.

Chapter 672 Self Doubt

Kong Rong came here with great ambitions, and he wanted to use his knowledge and eloquence to ask for a posthumous title for Zhang Xi to make up for his mistakes.After listening to Yang Biao's words, he realized that this matter was more difficult than he imagined.Hasty speaking will not only fail to accomplish anything, but will cause more trouble.

He had no choice but to accept Yang Biao's suggestion, and first made a record of the official history in Taiwei's mansion.

The recording room ordered the historian to report to the secretary, and his salary was only a hundred stones.Although there are not many, it is not a problem for Kong Rong and Mi Heng to live.

When they came west by bicycle, they always wanted to eat and stay.Working in Taiwei's Mansion, you can get a salary, have public meals, and have dormitories to live in, which saves a lot of trouble.

He was just a little disappointed.He thought that he should at least be a gangster, but he didn't expect Yang Biao to only give him the position of a small official with a hundred stones.

Later, he realized Yang Biao's good intentions.

Although He Xia Ling Shi is only a small official with hundreds of stones, he is in charge of dealing with documents, and he is handy in doing it without any difficulty.Reading these official documents every day is also convenient for him to understand the situation, and he has more contact with Yang Biao, which facilitates communication.

Kong Rong trusted Yang Biao and had enough patience, but Ni Heng didn't take Yang Biao's decision seriously.He didn't stay in Taiwei's mansion either, he ran out every day after eating, he was determined to find the young man who had a fight with him last time, and have a good argument with him, even if he was slashed by him.

He still doesn't believe that people who haven't practiced martial arts don't even have the right to speak?

He soon had a clue.

Boss Che said that was right, the person traveling with that young man was Jin Wei, the son of Jin Shang and Jin Yuanxiu.Because Jin Shang died in the line of duty, Jin Wei was able to become a Lang and work in the palace.

Mi Heng went to guard outside the palace gate.

Hard work pays off.On the third day, he got his wish and saw the young man directly.This time he was not with Jin Wei, but with another young woman.

The young woman is different from the Han people, with blond hair and blue eyes, but dressed in the service of a Langguan.The two went out talking and laughing, with an intimate look.To Mi Heng's surprise, what they spoke was not Chinese, but nonsense.

Could it be a beard?

Mi Heng took a closer look, but found that although the young man had fair skin, his appearance was undoubtedly Han.

Those two walked very fast, and they came near Mi Heng in a short while.Mi Heng didn't have time to think about it, so he rushed over in a few steps.

"Hey!" You Heng opened his arms, blocked their way, and shouted: "Boy, do you still remember me?"

Before the words finished, the blond girl Guan stepped forward, grabbed Mi Heng's arms, and pinned him to the ground. "Where is Xiao Xiao, who dares to act presumptuously at the palace gate?"

Mi Heng was caught off guard, with his face on the ground, a mouthful of dirt.He struggled vigorously, but the girl was not weak, and her skills were even more superb, she locked him tightly and made him unable to move.

Lang Guan, who was on duty outside the palace gate, rushed over and took Mi Heng under control.One of the middle-aged officials scolded: "Zhuzi, I have been watching you for two days, and I can tell that you are not a good person, but I didn't expect you to be so courageous that you dare to attack people here. Hey, you are not good enough with your skills." , where does the courage come from?"

"Okay, let him go." The young man smiled redly. "He came to see me."

"Looking for you?" The lady officer looked blank.

The other Lang officials were also a little surprised, but they refused to let go, still holding Mi Heng firmly.

"I met him on the road a few days ago. He was so shameless that I swear at him a few times. I didn't expect such a big temper to come here."

"What's your name? Where do you come from?" The middle-aged Lang Guan was suspicious and pulled Mi Heng up.

In a panic, Mi Heng took out an unused famous thorn from his bosom, and threw it in front of the middle-aged Langguan. "Pingyuan Miheng, how dare Lingtang be well!"

"your mom……"

A young Lang Guan glared, and rushed to hit him, but was stopped by the middle-aged Lang Guan.The middle-aged Langguan finished reading the famous thorns, and passed them to the young man.

"Meng Sanqi, since I am looking for you, I will trouble you to make a record later, so that I can deal with business."

The young man said: "I see, I will go to Weiwei's office to register later."

The middle-aged Lang Guan glanced at Mi Heng, twisted his mouth, and took his subordinates back.

The young man arched his hands. "Fufeng Mengda, styled Zidu, met you."

You Heng snorted. "You don't have to get close to me. I'm not here to make friends with you. I'm here to argue with you. You can win or lose."

"I know." Meng Da smiled and said, "I'm not trying to get close to you, but I'm just showing basic respect to Taiwei Yang's guests."

Mi Heng was taken aback. "Have you heard about me?"

Meng Da smiled but did not answer. "Are you discussing with me here, or are you talking while walking? I have a mission to go to the gold market, why don't you come together and see the people's sentiments in Chang'an by the way?"

"Just go, I'm afraid you won't make it!" Mi Heng shook his sleeves. "Lead the way ahead!"

The girl Guan Liu frowned slightly. "Are all the scholars from Kanto so rude? It makes my fist hard."

After meeting Yuan Quan and Ma Yunlu, Ni Heng was very uncomfortable with women being officials.Hearing the girl officer's rude words, he wanted to retort, but seeing the girl officer's clenched fist, he swallowed it back abruptly.

This woman not only really knows how to fight, but also has great strength, he is not an opponent at all.If you really want to annoy her, you will have to be beaten again, and it is in the public, outside the Golden Horse Gate, which scholars all over the world yearn for, and you will have no face to face people in the future.

The gold market is located in the northwest of Weiyang Palace, some distance away from the palace gate.Meng Da and the girl officer Hu Xing walked briskly while talking.As a celebrity, Mi Heng has always focused on calmness. He has never tried to walk so fast. Before he reached two hundred steps, he couldn't keep up. He was so tired that he was out of breath and his legs were heavy.

"How far is the gold market?" Mi Heng asked.

"Three or four miles."

Ni Heng was taken aback. "It's so far away, you...are you going to walk over like this?"

"Or else?" Meng Da showed a narrow smile. "You can't keep up, can you?"

"How could it be possible for me..." You Heng wanted to be tough, but when he thought about the three or four miles, he would never be able to persist, so he changed his words again. "...can keep up."

"Let's go if you can keep up." Meng Da stepped forward and continued to move forward.

"I mean... I can't keep up." You Heng blushed and admitted defeat face to face, it was too embarrassing.

Before Meng Da could speak, Hu Xing curled her lips, turned her head away, and said softly, "It's really a waste that doesn't work hard and doesn't distinguish five grains."

"You..." Mi Heng squinted his eyes, and was about to reprimand angrily, but found that Hu Xing's blue eyes were bigger than him, full of murderous intent, he felt guilty immediately, and swallowed back the words that followed.

"Trash!" Hu Xing shook her head, ignored Mi Heng, turned around and left first.

Meng Da looked at Mi Heng with a smile. "Are you sure you want to follow me? Or another day, wait for me to take a rest, and I will visit you at the Taiwei Mansion?"

Mi Heng suffered setbacks one after another, and his momentum has weakened.Seeing this scene, it hits my heart.

"In that case, I will wait at the Taiwei Mansion."

Meng Da cupped his hands, bid farewell to Mi Heng, turned around and went after Hu Xing.

Mi Heng stood in the distance, looking at Hu Xing's vigorous back, suddenly felt a trace of self-doubt.

Am I such a cowardly person?

Chapter 673 Fight without breaking

"Ni Heng?" Liu Xie raised his eyelids, a little surprised.

When did this talkative king come to Chang'an?

Could it be that he knew that Cao Cao was coming, so he ambush in advance?

Meng Da said: "Yes, I didn't know it was him before. After hearing a few words from him, I didn't think so, and refuted a few words casually. I didn't expect him to find the Golden Horse Gate with a grudge."

"That's right, he's as weak as a chicken, yet he thinks he's an eagle, and I don't know where his self-confidence comes from." Hu Xing complained.

Originally, I went to Jinshi today to run an errand to be alone with Meng Da, but it turned out to be all disturbed by that Kanto scholar.She was very angry, and regretted that the attack was too light, and she should have directly removed his joints.

Liu Xie thought for a while and put down the report in his hand.

Yang Biao told him about Kong Rong, but he didn't mention that Mi Heng and Kong Rong were together.This is a subconscious seniority ranking, and Mi Heng, a junior, is not taken seriously.

But for him, Kong Rong is very difficult to reform, and Ni Heng still has a chance.This kind of mouth gun king has been trained, and the firepower output will be doubled in the future, which is perfect for dealing with the Kanto people.

Although it is very enjoyable to stop arguing if you can do it, it is not bad to have one more output method.
