Han Dao world

Three days later, he received a notification from Chen Qun that Xun Yu had returned.

-

Xun Yu ran around several counties and just returned to Luoyang.He is dark and thin, but in good spirits.

As soon as they met, he told Yuan Hui very excitedly that if the weather goes well, he will definitely be able to overfulfill the task this year and double the per capita income of the people in Henan County.

Yuan Hui was puzzled, and asked Xun Yu, "Is this what the Fujun is most concerned about now?"

Xun Yu was stunned for a while before he realized, patted his forehead, and invited Yuan Hui to take a seat. "You came here for Shi Xie's matter?"

Yuan Hui nodded, talked about his suffering along the way, and then asked Xun Yu to come forward and ask the emperor to pardon Shi Xie, at least to give him a lighter punishment, not to be punished by the family.

"Who said you want to be punished by the clan?"

Yuan Hui was stunned. "Could it be..."

Xun Yu smiled. "I received a letter from Zhong Yao two days ago, mentioning about Shi Xie. Let me tell you the result first, so that you don't worry. Judging from the current situation, Shi Xie should not be punished by the clan. The most severe punishment is either Either go abroad or be imprisoned. If there is no accident, he should choose the former, after all, Jiaozhou is not far from overseas."

Yuan Hui heaved a sigh of relief, and his mood, which had been heavy for many days, finally became a little lighter.

"Which sage spoke up and moved the emperor?"

Xun Yu grinned. "you."

"Me?" Yuan Hui was both surprised and delighted.

"Yes, after your article was published, no one responded for more than a month."

Yuan Hui was at a loss for words, so embarrassed that he couldn't bear it.

"Xia Qing, the era of officials discussing politics and governing affairs is over, and it shouldn't come again." Xun Yu said earnestly, "I heard from Changwen that you have been in Luoyang City for the past two days, so you must have some insights. Luoyang was destroyed in the Who did it? Dong Zhuo is definitely to blame, but what about the Yuan brothers? Are they not responsible? If we really want to talk about it, their responsibility may be heavier than Dong Zhuo's."

Yuan Hui let out a long sigh and nodded silently.

"The Yuan family of four generations and three lords finally became the culprit who was almost overthrown. This is worthy of reflection by everyone, especially us Shandong scholar-bureaucrats who regard themselves as moral. It is not enough to have a passion, and to govern the world requires a down-to-earth attitude." Do things. It is said that self-cultivation and family harmony, governing the country and the world, many people can't even do self-cultivation and family harmony, but every day they think about governing the country and the world. Isn't it ridiculous? What's even more ridiculous is that such a person has become a scholar of the world. leader."

Yuan Hui frowned slightly. "You mean Yuan Shao?"

"Including Shi Xie, of course including you and me." Xun Yu said solemnly: "Isn't the reason why you run for Shi Xie because Shi Xie provided you with food and clothing when you were living in Jiaozhou and couldn't support yourself? Do you really want The ability to make a living, how can you rely on others and be a doorman, and now you owe favors and have to pay back?"

Yuan Hui blushed with embarrassment. "So in the eyes of Fu Jun, this is the kind of person I am?"

Xun Yu was not in a hurry. "Then tell me, what kind of person are you? There are so many Confucian scholars in the world, and there are countless people who are better educated than Shi Xie. There are also many people who were punished by the emperor because of the prefectures. Who have you complained about?"

Yuan Hui was speechless.

He felt that Xun Yu's words were like a knife, cutting off his disguise and letting him stand naked in front of the world.

Chapter 1261

Sitting aside, Chen Qun was also a little surprised.

It was the first time he saw the gentle and jade-like Xun Yu treat a young man so mercilessly.

Yuan Hui stood still for a long while, his face turned red and then pale, and then turned red again, and blood came out from his lips.

Xun Yu was not in a hurry, and drank water on his own until Yuan Hui's face returned to calm.

Yuan Hui let out a long sigh. "The ruler's words are like sharp words, and the one who is in charge is easy."

"It seems that you have never seen the Son of Heaven." Xun Yu smiled. "Xia Qing, you came too late. There are so many talented people around the emperor, it's not so easy to meet him. Discuss the Tao with the emperor, and you will know what it means to be in charge."

Yuan Hui looked depressed. "Although I have never met the Son of Heaven, I have heard many rumors and know that he is an excellent eloquent."

"It's not that you are good at eloquence, but that you have high knowledge." Xun Yu corrected: "The emperor is not easy to argue, so don't treat him as a debater, otherwise you will only make more mistakes." He paused, and then said: "Xia Qing, I said that you are late, there is another reason. Nowadays, the selection of officials almost all have to pass the exam, even the Sangong will not be easily dismissed. Otherwise..."

Yuan Hui hastily cupped his hands. "The Fujun misunderstood. I came to see you just to intercede for Brother Shi Xie, and I didn't intend to ask for an official position. Since their lives are not in danger, I can rest assured."

Xun Yu was a little embarrassed. "Then you stay here for a few days and look around."

Yuan Hui thought about it. "Thank you, Mr. Fu, I still want to find my brother. I heard that he intends to build a weir on the big river. I want to go and see, maybe it can be useful."

Xun Yu nodded in agreement.

Although the imperial court did not expressly prohibit the removal of the government office, but as the examination to become an official is becoming more and more popular in the world, most people will give priority to passing the examination, so as not to be regarded as incompetent, so they can only smuggle personal relationships, and be despised in the future. affect development.

Yuan Hui was still young, and it was impossible for him not to be an official for the rest of his life. It was undoubtedly the best choice to go to Yuan Min.

His identity is too sensitive, helping Yuan Hui may cause unnecessary trouble.

-

After sending Yuan Hui away, Chen Qun returned to the hall.

Xun Yu flipped through the recently received Dibao, shaking his head from time to time.

Chen Qun stepped forward. "Why did the Lord Fu lie to Yuan Hui?"

When Xun Yu was not in the mansion, he handled all the relevant documents, and he didn't see Zhong Yao's letter at all.

Xun Yu said indifferently: "I didn't hide it, I just told him the result first, so that he would not waste time, run around, and affect others. He might not listen to what others say about him. If I tell him, he won't refute. "

Chen Qun felt the same way.

As soon as he met Yuan Hui, he realized this problem.It's just that he and Yuan Hui are similar in age, so it's hard to speak too directly.Xun Yu is not the case. His status and influence are unmatched, and Yuan Hui is easier to accept.

"Your Majesty thinks the Son of Heaven can let Shi Xie go?"

"As long as those people don't cause trouble, the emperor won't bother to care about a seventy-year-old man." Xun Yu said lightly: "There is one thing, I will tell you first, and don't spread it outside."

"what's up?"

"My brother, Xiu Ruo, is going to succeed Sun Junrong as the Marquis of the Northern Army."

Chen Qun was taken aback, and then revealed ecstasy. "My lord, this is great news."

"Now you understand why I didn't appoint Yuan Hui as an official?"

Chen Qun smiled embarrassedly. "Understood, understood. At this time, it is really not appropriate to be troublesome. Fujun, so to speak, if you are friends with them..."

"Zhong Yuanchang has already joined the Law School, Youruo and the others, do they still have to worry? All they have to consider is to find a place that suits them, and don't waste any more time." Xun Yu sighed. "The prosperous age is approaching, and the time will not wait for us."

Chen Qun nodded repeatedly, beaming with joy.

Xun Yu looked at Chen Qun twice, and said, "Changwen, you are not young anymore, let's get married quickly."

"Here. Once there is a suitable one, I will propose marriage immediately."

"How about Cao Mengde's daughter?"

"Who?" Chen Qun was taken aback, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.

"Cao Mengde's daughter, didn't you see her last time you went to Chang'an? Mrs. Ding has a good impression of you, and she wrote a letter specially to ask about your situation."

"She..." Chen Qun was a little embarrassed. "She... is good at martial arts, and she just wants to take the Yulin exam. I'm afraid it's inappropriate?"

Xun Yu shook his head. "When is it, and you still look down on warriors? Let me tell you, it is impossible for you to be a Marquis in this life. In contrast, she has more opportunities. In the future, you will be married, have children, inherit It is very likely that her title is not yours."

Chen Qun looked embarrassed and was speechless for a while.

But he also knew that what Xun Yu said was the truth.The emperor attaches great importance to martial arts, even if he is a third prince, he is unlikely to be a marquis.In contrast, Cao Ying, Cao Cao's daughter, is good at martial arts, and has a very good relationship with Ma Guiren and Lu Guiren who are close to the emperor. In addition, Cao Cao, as the guardian, has a great possibility of being conscripted for meritorious service in the future.

"How? If you don't object, I'll make the decision."

Chen Qun hesitated. "My lord, I'm fine. It's just... I'm afraid that the boudoir will be uneasy in the future. I've heard that she has a very anxious temper, and she will use force when she disagrees with her. Sometimes she even draws a knife."

Xun Yu almost spit out the tea in his mouth. "You are a man, are you still afraid of a woman using martial arts? If you are really afraid, just spend some time practicing martial arts. In the future, no one likes a weak scholar, and a real husband is a man with both civil and military skills. If you are not the only son, I really want to recommend you to join the army."

"Okay...well." Chen Qun nodded helplessly.

"Then prepare yourself, go back to your hometown first, tell your mother, and then go to Quanling."

"Go to Quanling?"

"Squadmaster of the Northern Army, the conquest of Jiaozhou will soon be rewarded. Ding Chong will definitely be able to increase his rank and rank this time. Taking this opportunity, maybe he can agree to your marriage proposal. Cao Ying's marriage requires not only Cao Cao's consent, but also Ding Chong's." Agree, Mrs. Ding is obedient to Ding Chong's words. Besides, Cao Ang is also in Jiaozhou, so he needs to nod for this matter."

Xun Yu smiled. "You may not know that Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi, and Cao Chong are all good at it. Cao Zhang is the youngest loose rider and will be a fierce general in the future. Cao Chong is a child prodigy cultivated by the emperor. His expectations are as high as Zhuge Liang."

Chen Qun was taken aback, and realized how close the Cao family was to the emperor, and why Xun Yu suggested that he marry Cao Cao's daughter.

With so many brothers backing him, it would not be difficult for Cao Ying to become a Marquis in the future.

"Thank you, Lord." Chen Qun bowed again, this time with gratitude from the bottom of his heart.

Xun Yu really did it for his own good.Without Xun Yu's presence, even if Mrs. Ding took a fancy to him, others might not be willing to accept it.

Xun Yu heaved a sigh of relief, stroked his beard, and watched Chen Qun retreat.

In order to make up for the guilt he felt towards Chen Qun and the Chen family, he really put in a lot of thought, and now his wish has finally come true.

He was originally worried that Chen Qun would refuse, but now it seems that he was worrying too much.

Under the pressure of his family's future, Chen Qun has completed a change in mentality. He is no longer the young celebrity who relies on his family background and has no children left. He has learned to face reality.

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

Xun Yu couldn't tell.

Chapter 1262 Step by step

Liu Xie closed the exercise set, raised his hand and scratched the center of his eyebrows with his little finger, suddenly feeling lucky.

Fortunately, Zhuge Liang is more interested in politics than academics, otherwise he would have missed it long ago.

Mathematics really depends on talent, and it cannot be solved with hard work.Relying on the advantage of being a traverser, I have pretended to be a master for several years, but now facing two talented teenagers, I can't pretend anymore.

In fact, this can not blame him.After work, I haven't used much advanced mathematics, except for some concepts, most of them have been forgotten.What impressed him most was middle school mathematics, but those people of this era did not have too obvious a generation difference. It only took three to five years for a group of masters to catch up with him.

In terms of thinking, he still has some balance.

In terms of technology, he has been hollowed out.

After a while, he will have nothing to teach Zhou Buyi and Cao Chong in mathematics, so it is better to let them follow Zhao Shuang and others to do research.If you follow yourself, you may be delayed.

"You guys are making great progress. Starting tomorrow, go to the lecture hall and learn from Zhao Jijiu. I'm too busy recently, I'm afraid I don't have time to guide you."

Zhou Buyi and Cao Chong exchanged a look, and they bowed their hands together to salute.

"only."

Cao Chong asked again: "Your Majesty, I take the liberty to ask whether it is a matter of legislation or a matter of rewards?"

Liu Xie glanced at Cao Chong, a little surprised.

Although Cao Chong is young, his EQ is ridiculously high, even better than his IQ.How could he ask such a question that was obviously not suitable?

"Do you have any idea?"

"I don't understand something. Regarding legislation, I would like to ask His Majesty for advice."

"Let's listen to it." Liu Xie crossed his fingers and hugged his belly, becoming interested.

When discussing mathematics, he is afraid of being timid.Discussing these, he will not be sleepy.

In fact, he is already thinking about devoting his energy to enlightening their politics and economy in the future, laying a foundation for them to seek truth from facts from the very beginning, so as not to be misled by Confucian classics and cannot correct it later.

Cao Chong bowed his hands and bowed again. "Recently, I have often heard people discuss legislation. There are generally two opinions on internal and external courts. One is to abolish the internal court, and the government will be ruled by the three princes, and the emperor will rule. The other is to strengthen the internal court, the emperor will make decisions, and the three princes will implement it. The reason for supporting the former is that people are not right to the virtuous, and there is nothing wrong with them. Although the Son of Heaven is wise, he is only one person after all, and it is difficult to pervade all political affairs. If you have power but cannot use it, you will be taken advantage of by the left and right. It is better to authorize the three princes, and the Son of Heaven will be responsible for supervision. The reason for supporting the latter is that the three lords have their own specialties, there are many affairs, and they involve their own interests, so it is inevitable to lose sight of the other, but it is better for the emperor to have a far-sighted view, the bystander is clear, and can make decisions."

Liu Xie smiled knowingly after listening. "What do you think of yourself?"

"I think it's all reasonable, but I can't make a choice, so I want to ask His Majesty for advice."

"Yuanzhi, what about you?" Liu Xie looked at Zhou Buyi again.

Zhou Buyi also said: "I have discussed with Cang Shu many times, but there is no conclusion yet."

Liu Xie nodded. "It's right that there is no conclusion. There is no conclusion for this kind of thing."

Zhou Buyi and Cao Chong looked at each other, more puzzled.

"You have all read Xunzi's articles. You should know the relationship between learning and thinking. Governance and learning are similar, and there is also a relationship between thinking and action. Thinking without doing is just fantasy. The former is the law. Confucianism is in front of the two, and it is the shortest way. From this perspective, it is a more reasonable plan to make decisions in the inner dynasty and implement them in the three princes."

Zhou Buyi thought for a while, and said: "Your Majesty's words are reasonable, and the Son of Heaven is governing, almost doing nothing, so he is passive."

"That's right. The Son of Heaven hangs his bow and governs by doing nothing. It's an ancient policy. Some people say it's fantasy, some people say it's a historical fact. Whether it's right or wrong, let's not talk about him. But there is one thing that cannot be ignored."

Liu Xie leaned back to make himself sit more comfortably. "In ancient times, the ignorance was not yet opened. The monarch held the power of sacrifice and communicated with the destiny to govern. Since the Master established his school, the people's wisdom has gradually developed. How can the ancient government be restored and acted entirely according to the will of God? When there is a problem, if you don't brainstorm, but To sacrifice to heaven?"

Zhou Buyi and Cao Chong shuddered at the same time and shook their heads again and again.

Such a thing as sacrificing humans to heaven feels barbaric when you think about it.

Qin Mugong's pedestrians died, and the Qin people mourned him, and wrote the poem "Yellow Bird", which has always been regarded as a symbol of the barbarism and backwardness of the Qin people.In contrast, the Central Plains abolished human sacrifice very early on.
