Chapter 27: The Story of Donglai (8)
On the afternoon of October in winter, the locust tree behind the palace suddenly pulled itself out and erected without strong winds and earthquakes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info this strange thing made the emperor feel a little uneasy. He summoned the ministers and the Taishi Taixing official to discuss, what the hell is going on?
The ministers discussed and discussed, but there was no result, and the words were nothing more than that the emperor was not good at governing morally, so God warned him to be diligent and love the people, and not to slack off on government. Well, the emperor is in a bad mood, since you say that it is a warning from heaven, then the three princes will take the blame for me. The emperor pointed to it, and it was you, but Situ Yuan Kui was tragic and was dismissed and went home. And the emperor didn't even have a copy of the edict. In ancient times, if there was any warning from the heavens, such as solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, earthquakes, floods and other natural disasters, it was basically the three princes or prime ministers who came out to carry the black pot for the Son of Heaven. There is no way, you can't say to the people of the world that the Son of Heaven is unrighteous and immoral, the minister can say it, and the people will cause chaos if they don't hear it. It can only be said that the important ministers who assisted the Son of Heaven did not govern the country properly. Otherwise, do you want this world anymore?
At the same time as the personnel changes in the court, something happened in Liaoxi. Somehow, Liu Taishou of Liaoxi provoked the Son of Heaven in the recital, and ordered the car to be sent to the Jingshi Tingwei to wait for disposal. At this time, the law was strict, and the offenders were not allowed to approach the original officials, and the ministers could only stare dryly if they wanted to help. So Gongsun Zhan changed his mind and lied to the officials of the Beijing division that Liu Taishou was a guard in the mansion, and escorted Liu Taishou all the way into Beijing. When I arrived in Beijing, according to the emperor's original intention, I would first put you in prison for introspection, and then talk about it when I was in a good mood.
When the ministers heard this, they thought, this is okay, when will you remember Liu Taishou, the emperor, I am afraid that he is already a dry bone in the grave. So they spoke out one after another, this one said that Liu Taishou was unattainable, and the other said that Liu Taishou was useless. When the emperor heard this, he became interested, and said Since this person is such a bastard, what do you say you should do?
The ministers discussed a result, saying that this person is so annoying, it is better to send him to Rinan, let him get far away, and don't want to go back to the Central Plains in this life. In this way, Your Majesty, you will be out of sight and out of mind. This is really the southernmost part of the Han Dynasty, the seven counties of Jiaozhou, and the most remote and barbaric place in Japan, and the worst place for criminal officials. When the emperor heard this, he was happy, okay, let's do it like this, let him go to Rinan and stay.
The ministers breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, okay, even if they are sent to Rinan, it is better than dying in prison, right? Gongsun Chan was also stupid when he got the news. He thought that escorting Taishou to Jingshi would be over, so his righteous deed was completed. Who would have thought ......
Who doesn't know that Rinan is a barren land, and the road is so far away, it is estimated that once you go this time, there is a chance that you will not be able to come back. So the tragic grandson Boqi brought sacrifices to Beimang Mountain, facing the north to worship his ancestors: "In the past, he was the son of man, and now he is a minister, and he has to repay the grace of Taishou. The south of the day is biased, there is a lot of miasma, I am afraid or not to return, and I will leave the tomb for a long time. "Shi Zai is generous and sorrowful, and when he goes away, everyone who hears it sighs. In this way, Gongsun Chan's righteous deeds have been appreciated by countless people, perhaps knowing that Gongsun Chan may be a dying person, so all kinds of reputations fall on his head. In this atmosphere, Gongsun Chan escorted Liu Taishou to Rinan.
Some people may say that Gongsun Chan won't be finished if he doesn't go to Rinan, as for this? In fact, otherwise, there will be good things to do in the future and send the Buddha to the west. Gongsun Zhan, as Liu Taishou's former subordinate, either don't escort Liu Taishou to Beijing, since he has put himself on the side of righteousness and sent the benefactor to Beijing, and then he will be sent to Rinan, and then he will return to Liaoxi regardless of it, is this still a person? What does this make the world think of Gongsun Zhan? The previous phase sent to Jingshi was performed in vain.
To say that Gongsun Zhan escorted Liu Taishou from Liaoxi to Luoyang, one is to repay the favor, and the other is to make a name by the way. I hope everyone will praise him for his gratitude and righteousness. But when he got here, he was really unable to get off the stage by himself. He knew that even if he died, he had to send Taishou all the way to Nichinan, otherwise, his reputation would be completely ruined, so it would be better to die. Therefore, Gongsun Zhan worships his ancestors in Beimang Mountain, which is indeed true affection, so he cries so sadly, does not move his true feelings, and can cry when he looks at the excitement?
Gongsun Chan scolded himself for being an unlucky guy in his heart, but on the surface, he had to sing generously and sadly. It wasn't long before he escorted Liu Taishou, and before he left the Sili Lieutenant's Department, an envoy from the Son of Heaven rode up and chased after him, holding Huang Juan and pardoning Liu Taishou's crime. This day is really capricious! Now it's good, a blessing in disguise. After Gongsun Zan and Liu Taishou returned to Beijing, they returned to Liaoxi and were quickly promoted to filial piety. As for why Liu Taishou was pardoned, whether the emperor was kind or liked to work against the officials, no one knows.
At the same time, Liu Bei was chatting with a vote of people. Zheng Xuan is a very enlightened person. The disciples came and went freely, and he couldn't help but study in the wind. So reading under Zheng Xuanmen, reading and reading saw that there was a group of people missing, and then reading and reading that this group of people appeared again, which is a normal thing. This time, it was because Guan Ning and Bing Yuan returned from a study tour, and when they saw Liu Bei, they talked with them for a long time, and they had the intention of seeing each other late. Guan Ning smiled at the time: "I was studying abroad, and I also heard the name of Wulang, so I hurriedly returned to Yangqiu." When I saw it today, Gorou really had a wonderful mind, liberal arts and talents, and lived up to the reputation of other counties. ”
Liu Bei also likes Guan Ning and Bing Yuan very much, these two people are full of knowledge, but they are humble, like a spring breeze. Isn't the so-called gentle and humble gentleman in the book describing these two people? Later, Guan Ning also did this, not to be an official, only to study, after going to Liaodong to avoid the war, he explained the scriptures to the fleeing people, and carried out indoctrination. A gentleman has no desire, Guan Ning is not an official but he is deeply loved by the people, and he is perfect enough to be a man.
Then they talked about the people of the world. Liu Bei is not good at talking, but he still likes to participate in the activities of evaluating characters, because in this way, he can understand the dynamics of celebrities in the world, which is convenient to corroborate with the memories in his mind. Of course, he only listened, not spoken.
This time, Guan Ning, Bing Yuan, and the three brothers Hua Xin went to Yingchuan County, and they went to meet the local famous Chen Yu. Liu Bei thought about it for a while, well, running from Donglaiyangqiu to Yingchuan, Yuzhou, from Shandong to Henan, these years, you are really good at running. Isn't Yingchuan the hometown of Xun Yu, Xun Wenruo, Xun You, Xun Gongda, and two uncles and nephews? Listen and listen, Liu Bei began to get excited.
Guan Ning began to talk about the scenery along the way and the celebrities of Yingchuan on this trip, and the first thing to mention was naturally the famous Chen Yu. Liu Bei really didn't know who Chen Yu was, his eyes were dark, but he had to listen patiently. But I heard Guan Ning speak with great interest: "Chen Gong, together with his sons Chen Yuanfang and Chen Jifang, are known as the three gentlemen; In the past, it was called the four chiefs of Yingchuan with Xun Gong Ji He, Zhong Gong Ji Ming, and Han Gong Zhong Huang in the same county. He is really a moral person, a person of high character, and a model for my generation. ”
Many people here also nodded yes when they heard this. Liu Bei was anxious, hey, hey, who are these people you are talking about? There's no way, you can't name people in this era, this is disrespectful, so they all call the word, Liu Bei has not reached the age of the crown ceremony, and everyone doesn't call him Liu Bei, just Wulang. For the elderly, in order to show respect, you have to add a public character before the surname after the surname, just like Guan Ning just said Chen Gong, Xun Gong, Zhong Gong...... can make Liu Bei confused. He only vaguely guessed that Xun Gong might be related to Xun Yu, but none of the others knew about it.
At this time, Liu Bei was reluctant to pretend to be stupid, who would like to listen to the book of heaven, so he interrupted Guan Ning and asked: "Brother You'an, the younger brother took the liberty to ask, who are the Duke of Xun, Duke Zhong and Duke Han?" Who are Chen Yuanfang and Chen Jifang? Can you get so much attention from your brothers? ”
Guan Ning couldn't help laughing, and said: "But it's the foolish brother who is presumptuous, Xun Gong, Zhong Gong and Han Gong have been dead for many years, and Wulang is young, so I don't know these extenuating circumstances...... so he explained to Liu Bei one by one.
It turns out that Chen Yu and his sons Chen Ji and Chen Chen are collectively known as the Three Monarchs, Chen Yu is a famous person in the sea, and there are many deeds that are talked about in the world. The most famous is Chen Yuxiao, the gentleman on the beam. Once a thief ran to Chen Yu's house and hid on the beams of the house, trying to take advantage of the opportunity to steal. Chen Yu found out that there was a thief, but he didn't say anything, called his children and grandchildren together, and lectured under the beam of the house where the thief was hiding: "Madame must not be self-exhorted." Those who are not good may not be evil, but they become accustomed to it, and so it ends. The gentleman on the beam is the one! "People can't help but encourage themselves to work hard, people who do bad things are not necessarily born bad, but they gradually become like this when they get used to it, and the gentleman on the beam of the house is such a person.
The thief was shocked and hurriedly jumped down to plead guilty. Chen Yu said: "Look at the monarch as a gentleman, not like a wicked person, and should deeply deny yourself and oppose good." However, it is due to poverty. "Don't you look like a bad person? Reflect on yourself and get back on the right path, but you should behave like this because you are too poor. So he gave the thief two silks, and from then on, the thieves in a county were extinct. The term gentleman on the beam has also begun to circulate since then. Liu Bei was stunned when he heard it, and when he listened to it casually, he heard that a person who invented the term gentleman on the beam was coming, how could this gentleman be like grass and grab it casually?
If he knew that Chen Yu had a son named Chen Ji, Chen Ji had a son named Chen Qun, Chen Qun had been his subordinate in history, and he was recruited by him to be Yuzhou Don't drive, but finally defected to Cao Cao, the official became bigger and bigger, and he has always achieved the position of Sikong and the Three Princes, and then put forward the famous "Nine Products Zhongzheng System" in history and formulated the "Wei Law". He will definitely keep it in mind and be ready to dig into the corner at any time.
Xun Shu became famous as a young man, excelled in Shilin, and later became known as the Divine Monarch. He has eight sons, all of whom are great sages, known as Xun's Eight Dragons, and the sixth son Xun Shuang is the most outstanding. Guan Ning talked a lot about their deeds, but Liu Bei didn't care, because these are not the point, the point is that Xun Shu has a grandson, that is, Xun Yu Xun Wenruo! Xun Wenruo, who was allowed to be Wang Zuozhicai by the people of the time, and was called my son by Cao Cao! In the era when Kong Ming was not yet born, you must catch him! Liu Bei thought fiercely in his heart.
As for who Zhong Gong is and who Han Gong is, Liu Bei was not interested.
Note: Zhong Hao Zhong Jiming has a great-grandson who is also very famous, that is, Zhong Xuan, he is not only a big official, but also has excellent calligraphy. With the same name as Wang Xizhi, known as King Zhong, he was respected by later generations as the originator of regular script.
Note: I haven't looked at the list for a long time, but today I found that I am No. 42 on the list of new books by signed authors and No. 2 on the list of new books by signed authors in the history category. Tonight my friend's thirtieth birthday, go to celebrate her birthday, youth passes so fast, I have known her for nearly ten years, and in a snap of my fingers, she will be thirty......
