281. Chapter 281: The Past

Sima Fang has an upright and fair personality, and even in a leisure place such as a banquet, he maintains his dignity. He was also very strict with his children's teachings.

Even after Sima Lang became an adult, his request for his father Sima Fang was 'not ordered to enter, not to sit down, not to ask, not to speak'.

Even Sima Lang, the eldest brother, is required so strictly, let alone Sima Yi, a young man who is not yet an adult?

'The elder brother is like a father' was not a joke in ancient times. Sima Yi dared to argue with Sima Lang, which showed his extraordinary courage.

Rao is like this, in the face of the angry Sima Lang, he didn't dare to speak again.

Sima Yi's words are not unimportant. When he said this, it was a disguised sarcasm, his brother was greedy for life and afraid of death, and he was wise enough to protect himself.

Therefore, Sima Lang was furious.

The current Sima Yi is still a teenager, and coupled with Sima Fang's daily teachings, he has a sense of justice. As for the deep scheming in the future, it has not yet been revealed in Sima Yi.

Sima Lang cultivated well, and after being angry, he took a few deep breaths and finally dispersed the anger in his chest. He stared at his stubborn brother tightly, with a helpless look on his face.

He knew that his younger brother looked at him like this because he took Sima Yi and escaped from Luoyang together.

When Dong Zhuo moved the capital of the Son of Heaven to Chang'an, their father Sima Fang was an official in the court. For the sake of the safety of his family, Sima Fang asked Sima Lang to quietly take his family and prepare to flee back to his hometown.

Unexpectedly, someone reported Sima Lang to Dong Zhuo, saying that he wanted to escape.

Dong Zhuo grabbed Sima Lang and asked him angrily: "You are the same age as my deceased son, why did you betray me?" ”

Sima Lang replied: "The Duke of Ming assisted the Son of Heaven in the chaos of the world with the merits of the high world, cleared the filth of the eunuchs, and recommended many wise men. ”

"However, Weide is long, and the merit is great, and the day of the war, the state and county are boiling. In the suburbs, the people are unemployed, donate their property, and go into exile and Tibet. That's why I want to run back home. ”

"I hope that Ming Gong can learn from it, and after a little reflection and deep thought, then Ming Gong's reputation can be as glorious as the sun and the moon. Even Yi Yin and Zhou Gong can't be compared with Ming Gong. ”

Sima Lang replied to Dong Zhuo like this, which can not be said to be unintelligent.

He first highly praised Dong Zhuo's contributions, saying that he was able to revive the community. made Dong Zhuo overjoyed when he heard it.

Then, he bluntly said the reason why hundreds of people fled desperately under Dong Zhuo's rule. Although Dong Zhuo is a little brutal, how can he not know about the situation under his rule?

Dong Zhuo has always been good to scholars, and he will not punish Sima Lang because he told the truth.

Sima Lang then told Dong Zhuo: "Why did those people run away, I also wanted to run away because of this." ”

In this way, he answered Dong Zhuo's question lightly.

The implication of Sima Lang's words is that "I didn't run away to betray you, but because of the constant war and the difficult life here, I want to leave here like everyone else." ”

When Dong Zhuo heard this, even if he was dissatisfied, he would not kill Sima Lang.

Sima Lang took the opportunity to pat Dong Zhuo's ass again: "As long as you learn a little and reflect, your reputation is not even comparable to Yi Yin and Zhou Gong." ”

This sentence compares Dong Zhuo with Yi Yin and Zhou Gong, and Dong Zhuo is naturally overjoyed. He said at the time: "I also understand it, Qingyan has intentions!" ”

In this way, Sima Lang saved his life.

It can be said that Sima Lang faced Dong Zhuo's questioning and faced a situation where he could die at any time. Not only did he not panic in the slightest, but he was able to dispel Dong Zhuo's killing intent with a few words, and made Dong Zhuo treat him with admiration.

Although Sima Lang temporarily coaxed Dong Zhuo with excuses, he also knew that Dong Zhuo would definitely be defeated. He was afraid that he would be left behind, so he bribed the officials around Dong Zhuo, and then secretly returned to his hometown.

In doing so, he is not unwitted and eloquent.

But in the eyes of the young Sima Yi, Dong Zhuo's cholera dynasty is naturally a person who is unforgivable. His own brother, not only did not stay in Luoyang and fight against Dong Zhuo, but instead made compromises and deliberately flattered Dong Zhuo.

This can't help but make Sima Yi, who is only twelve years old, very unhappy in his heart.

"Hey!"

looked at his younger brother who was kneeling on the ground, still a little stubborn. Sima Lang couldn't help but sigh heavily in his heart.

At that time, Sima Lang took his family and fled back to Wen County, Hanoi County. He thought that the war between the Kwantung princes and the Western Liang army would inevitably affect Wen County, so he advised the elders of the clan to leave their hometown and go to Zhao Weisun, their in-law in the township.

However, the fathers and elders are nostalgic for the old and are unwilling to follow Sima Lang to leave their hometown. Only Zhao Zhi took his family and left with Sima Lang.

Later, as Sima Lang had predicted, a few months later, hundreds of thousands of troops were raised in the prefectures and counties of Kwantung, and the large armies were all gathered in Xingyang and Hanoi counties.

Because the heroes have their own ghosts, it is difficult to act in unison. Some soldiers even plundered the local population, killing and wounding more than half of the people.

It wasn't until Chen Xu took Hanoi County that Sima Lang felt the strength of the Bingzhou Army and thought that Hanoi County could settle down under Chen Xu's rule, so he returned to Wen County with his family.

However, the current Wen County has long been dilapidated. After the looting of his home, Sima's family also lost its former glory.

As the eldest son of the Sima family, and the only adult man, Sima Lang naturally has to take on the responsibility of reviving the family.

The truth that is too rigid and easy to break, the young and vigorous Sima Yi can't fully comprehend it.

Sima Lang knew that his younger brother was very intelligent, and over time, his achievements would definitely be above him. He sorted out his thoughts and was about to continue teaching Sima Yi when he suddenly heard a burst of laughter.

Chen Xu took Dian Wei, Hao Zhao, and Wei Xu and pushed the door in.

He looked at Sima Lang, who was a talent, and Sima Yi, who was kneeling on the ground, and said deliberately: "Is it too harsh for Boda to teach his younger brother?" ”

Sima Lang had never seen Chen Xu, but after he watched Chen Xu's momentum and the generals Chen Xu behind him, he had some guesses in his heart.

He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "A certain newcomer to the state, I don't know your name. If there is any rudeness, please don't blame! ”

Chen Xu smiled heartily and said, "No, it's Chen Xu, the pastor of Bingzhou, I heard that Boda brought Brother Ling over and came to pay a visit." ”

Sima Lang hurriedly said: "The envoy is hanging, Lang is terrified!" ”

Then, he turned his head to Sima Yi, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Envoy to the king, why don't you come and salute?" ”

Sima Yi didn't feel twisted at all because others saw him kneeling on the ground. He stood up, patted the dust on his body with a calm demeanor, and saluted forward: "Yi, I've seen the envoy!" ”

Chen Xu took a closer look at the handsome Sima Yi, and then praised: "Although this son is young, his body is full of aura. His achievements in the future must not be low! ”

After speaking, Chen Xu asked the two to be exempted.

After the group finished the ceremony, after entering the house, Chen Xu asked with some curiosity: "Boda, I don't know why you and Brother Ling were arguing just now, what's the matter?" ”

Seeing Chen Xu inquiring about his private affairs, Sima Lang did not show a displeased look on his face. Instead, he told the story of the incident in the whole book.

It turned out that after Sima Lang fled back to Wenxian with his family, he lived at home for a while.

Yingchuan celebrity Hu Zhao, the table word Kong Ming, good at the long Lishu, and Zhong Xuan, Handan Chun, Wei Qi, Wei Dan are equally famous.

He traveled from Yingchuan to Jizhou to escape the war, passing through Wen County.

The prestige of the Sima family in Shilin is naturally not low. When Hu Zhao passed through Wen County, he visited Sima Lang's family.

After Hu Zhao saw Sima Yi, he liked this young man very much, so he stayed in Wenxian County for a while, teaching Sima Yi scriptures and calligraphy every day, and the two formed a friendship that they had forgotten.

In Wen County, Hanoi County, there is a ranger named Zhou Sheng, who is friendly with many local young chivalrous guests.

The so-called rangers are all people who have repaid their kindness and revenge.

A friend of Zhou Sheng's had a conflict with a local man. After Zhou Sheng found out, he led a group of teenagers to kill the man and vent his anger for his friend.

This incident happened to be seen by Sima Yi, who thought that even if there was a slight conflict between the two, they should not take people's lives, so he reprimanded Zhou Sheng and others in person.

Zhou Sheng was scolded by a child and immediately became furious. The rangers of the Han Dynasty all disagreed with each other and drew their swords against each other. At that time, Zhou Sheng had murderous intent towards Sima Yi.

Fortunately, he also knew that the Sima clan was a prominent clan in Hanoi County, so he kidnapped Sima Yi to the territory of Hongnong County.

Van is located at the junction of Hanoi and Hung Nong. Zhou Sheng and others kidnapped Sima Yi, and they didn't leave Wen County far.

After Hu Zhao knew what happened to Sima Yi, he immediately went to find it. Finally, between the mountains and ponds, Zhou Sheng and his party were found.

Hu Zhao begged them to let Sima Yi go, but Zhou Sheng began to refuse, and wanted to drive Hu Zhao away. But Hu Zhao said that he would not leave anything, but only wailed and cried there, begging them not to kill Sima Yi.

As a ranger, Zhou Sheng is naturally a person who values love and righteousness.

Later, Hu Zhao's sincerity in crying finally moved Zhou Sheng, and he released Sima Yi.

After Sima Lang learned that his younger brother almost died, he was shocked, and taught Sima Yi several times, telling him to do everything according to his ability. But Sima Yi couldn't listen to it no matter what.

Two brothers, there is a dispute.

After listening to Sima Lang's narration, Chen Xu immediately treated Sima Yi with admiration. He never thought that Sima Yi in his youth would have such an experience.

"This chivalrous, righteous and honest Sima Yi. Is it really the scheming, scheming, and power-leaning Sima Zhongda in history? ”

For a while, Chen Xu was a little confused in his heart.
