Chapter 283: New Atmosphere (Ask for a Guaranteed Monthly Pass!) )
"General Sun's eyes are so strange." After dinner, Cai Yan, Cai Yong, and Zhou Yu sat around the fireplace, rubbing their hands and saying. Thinking of the daytime communication, she couldn't let go for a long time. "Father, Gongjin, do you feel like this?"
Cai Yong glared at Cai Yan and said in a deep voice: "Gongjin is also what you can call now?" It's just when we're alone, we can't be like this in front of outsiders, first, it's rude, and second, it makes people look down on Gongjin. Sun Bofu is about to go to Ruyang for a funeral, Gongjin is going to sit in Nanyang, and if the gentleman is not powerful, it is not important. Where does the prestige come from, where does the weight come from, and starts from the people around you. ”
Cai Yan lowered his head. "Whoa."
Cai Yong stroked his beard and said quietly: "I sometimes have this feeling you said, but he can't talk to me, and there are many quarrels, but I don't pay too much attention." Now it seems that he said that it is difficult for me to surpass Taishi Gong in history, not because of a momentary misstatement, but because it has been concluded a long time ago. Gong Jin, do you think so too? ”
Zhou Yu laughed softly: "Mr. thinks too much, Bo Fu is joking, not necessarily distrusting Mr." As for Madame's thoughts......" Zhou Yu glanced at Cai Yan quietly, and immediately took his gaze back. "I always have. Bo Fu didn't read much, Huang Yueying was originally a companion, but she soon went to study the science of machinery, Bo Fu can now read official documents, and he really doesn't pay much attention to the scriptures. He often has strange and strange theories, which at first glance look vulgar, but after careful consideration, he has real insights. ”
"General Zhou thinks the same way, then it's not my delusion."
Zhou Yu smiled modestly and quietly changed the topic. "Sir, is this something you are born to know? Is there a picture to talk about this? ”
Cai Yong glanced at Zhou Yu, his eyebrows frowned slightly, revealing a little unhappiness. "Gong Jin, you are proficient in music and rhythm, do you know why the Five Classics exist, but the Music Classics are lost?"
"Please sir."
"Without him, the etiquette will be bad. Human nature is like water, easy to be humble and difficult to be noble, so Yale declines and Zheng Shengxing. The master smells Shao, and he doesn't know the smell of meat in March, and there is the most joyful among them. Like today, who can embody that kind of bliss? Lao Tzu said: The five tones are deafening, why? The five tones are not elegant music, they can entertain the body but not the heart, and they can't be right. ”
Zhou Yu was embarrassed. Cai Yong criticized him by talking about music. Cai Yan saw it and hurriedly changed the topic. "Father, I see that General Sun's theory of Zhoushui seems to be quite close to the purpose of Mencius, and there is some meaning of Xunqing's emphasis on the law, although it is vulgar, but it is dedicated to the people, and it cannot be judged as incivility. Look at the measures he has arranged today, which one is not for the benefit of the people. ”
Cai Yong also felt that he was too strict just now, so he breathed a sigh of relief. "If that weren't the case, why should I bother with him? However, Gongjin, some things are easier said than done. Sun Bofu's boasted Haikou needs you to complete, and this burden is not light. Take the opportunity to persuade him that governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, trembling, like facing the abyss, like walking on thin ice, and too much. The biggest problem of the party and celebrities in power is that they are anxious, and they can't wait to slaughter all the traitors one day, so that the Son of Heaven is Yao Shun. What is not so easy in the world? Sun Bofu said that Confucianism has accumulated deep shortcomings, and when it is the only reason for innovation, it is also a sharp and insightful remark. In my opinion, aiding Taoism into Confucianism and using Taoism to help Confucianism may be a way. ”
"Wow. I'll tell you about it. ”
Cai Yong turned to Cai Yan. "Since Sun Bofu has such high expectations for you, you should take advantage of the situation and introduce its righteous path. It is also a blessing if you can get rid of its anger, make the world peaceful, and live up to what you have learned in your life. If Sun Ce has the heart to support, with your talents, it is not impossible to become a generation of grandmasters and create a new atmosphere of Confucianism. ”
Cai Yan bowed and saluted. In front of Cai Yong, the two bowed down, it was a bit like a husband and wife worshipping the church, a thought flashed in their hearts, the two turned their heads at the same time, their eyes intertwined, and they understood each other's meaning in an instant, and both blushed.

Cao Cao pressed the knife and looked at Nanshan in the distance, and was distracted for a while.
Xiahoudun and Xi Zhicai stood behind him. Xiahoudun's eye injury had healed, but his left eye was lost forever, leaving only a large hole. He covered it with an eye patch and drew an eye on it, which looked a little weird. Some of the soldiers passing by were surprised, and some whispered, although Xiahoudun couldn't hear clearly, he knew what they might be talking about, and his face turned blue with anger.
"Yuan Rang, don't be like them." Cao Cao didn't look back, and said softly.
Xiahoudun replied sullenly. Hearing footsteps behind him, he turned his head to look. Because he doesn't have a left eye, to see the left side, his neck has to turn a little more, and his neck makes a gurgling sound.
"It's me!" Lu Bu's voice rang out, with an undisguised smile. "Yuan Rang, don't turn around, twist your neck again."
Xiahoudun was furious and reached out to hold down the knife ring. Cao Cao turned around in time, held Xiahoudun's hand, and greeted him with a smile. "The prince is here."
"Well, this is Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, who just came back from Nanyang." Lü Bra passed Zhang Liao beside him and introduced him to Cao Cao. The two were polite to each other. Cao Cao smiled: "I have just come back from Nanyang, I am worse than Wenyuan, and I will be closer in the future." ”
Zhang Liao was embarrassed and surprised. Cao Cao was defeated by Sun Ce, but he didn't see a little frustration on his face, but a little proud. Is this man big-hearted or shameless? Or are you used to losing battles?
Cao Cao saw Zhang Liao's expression in his eyes, didn't mind, and laughed: "Wenyuan, what is your impression of Sun Ce?" ”
Zhang Liao thought for a moment. "This son is cunning, good at figuring out people's hearts, there seem to be capable people under him, the intelligence is very accurate, and he knows every move of his opponent well."
Cao Cao nodded. "Then do you think he will accept the edict of the imperial court and be a loyal minister?"
Zhang Liao's eyebrows frowned slightly, he groaned for a long time, and shook his head. "He may be a capable minister, but he is unlikely to be a loyal minister."
Cao Cao clapped his hands. "So, Nanyang can only be conquered by force?"
Lu Bu's eyes flashed slightly, revealing a little unhappiness. "Brother Meng De, the prince wants to send troops to conquer Nanyang, wouldn't it be your idea? You and I ride step by step, leading the army together, such an important matter, why don't you discuss it with me first? Don't you look down on me Lu Bu? ”
Cao Cao stared at Lu Bu for a while. "Send troops to Nanyang? When? ”
"This morning, he asked me to lead the army to recruit Nanyang, but I refused."
Cao Cao turned around and exchanged glances with Xi Zhicai, shook his head with a wry smile, and walked to Lu Bu's side. "Junhou, is there anything going on today? Wen Yuan returned safely, and there is one more general under the command of the prince, congratulations, I invite you to drink, catch the wind for Wen Yuan, and by the way, ask the prince for advice on the strategy of Nanyang, and ask the prince to appreciate the light. ”
Lu Bu turned his anger into joy and agreed.
