The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Vol 7 Chapter 8: Zhumen wine meat roadside bone

Sun Jian didn't find the little wife that Xun Zhen was looking for, but he gave Xun Zhen a "good disciple" first.

Not to mention that Xun Zhen liked Sun Ce in the first place, he just said that in the original history, Sun Ce, at the age of 20, with a weak crown and beautiful hair, gathered troops to drive eastward, attacked the crowd with few, attacked no strong city, and fought without confrontation. In a few years, he has swept across Jiangdong and established a party's hegemony. He is really a little overlord. Based on his merits, Xun Zhen would never have pushed such a "good student" out of the door.

Looking for a good day and auspicious day, Sun Ce officially worshipped Xun Zhen's door and became Xun Zhen's first disciple, and possibly the last disciple.

Although Sun Ce was young, he was wise early. He had set up a door when he was at home a few years ago. It stands to reason that Sun Jian and Mrs. Wu should be very at ease with him. He called to him and told him.

The Wu family said to him: "The country attaches great importance to the art of scriptures, and uses the art of scriptures to select scholars, and what my family lacks is the art of classics. He is skilled in classics and law, and he is adept in military and political affairs. It is not necessary to say much about his outstanding military exploits. Only his political achievements in Wei County were the second in Jizhou in the first year. He has a good relationship with your father, and I am afraid that he will not accept you as a student, you must cherish this opportunity, and must not slack off, let alone be rude in front of Xunjun’s throne.”

In the pre-Han Dynasty, there was a proverb in the land of Zou Lu: "It is not as good as a scripture if the leftovers are full of gold." Since the ZTE, because Emperor Guangwu was fond of Confucianism and emphasized scriptures, the country sought scholars based on scriptures, and the status of scriptures became even more important. Although Wu's proposal to let Sun Ce join Xun Zhen's family is mainly to use Xun Zhen's reputation to pave the way for Sun Ce, but this does not mean that she does not want Sun Ce to truly learn Xun's family method.

Sun Jian came from a humble background, and his family had no family. Changsha was located in Nanzhou, and the culture was not prosperous. The ability of the scripture teachers in the school was limited, and he could not learn any good scriptures in the school. The identities of Shi and Wuchenghou also made it impossible to send Sun Ce to the county school or the county school. , With the attitude of scholars despising Sun Jian, Sun Ce was afraid that he would not be able to worship him, so Sun Ce had not been very good at learning the classics. Wu also really hoped that he could take this opportunity to learn something from Xun Zhen.

However, Sun Ce Xing Xiao's father, although he respectfully agreed to his mother, and indeed respected Xun Zhen very much, but what he wanted to learn was not the scriptures. When he talked about military warfare and the art of war, he was full of interest.

Wu Shi had nothing to do about it, and Xun Zhen also had nothing to do about it.

"People's troubles are good to be a teacher." Xun Zhen is also a person, and it is inevitable that he will have this problem. He used to learn from others, but now he suddenly has a disciple to teach, and he is also a "good student" that he likes more and more. Although he knew that he was not good at academics, he couldn't stand it "just around the corner" and really wanted to teach Sun Ce the family method of Xun's family.

The current education system can be summed up in four words: teach students the law.

"Family Law" is divided into two categories, one is the academic opinions of each school, each school has its own different opinions in academics, each is divided into one family, which is "Family Law", and the other is "Family Law". "Also refers to the teaching content of a family.

As far as the former is concerned, to give an example from the law, such as the father and son of Du Zhou and Du Yannian in the former Han Dynasty, both of them understood the law, and each had his own interpretation of the Han law and commented on it separately. The Great Dury and The Little Dury.

As far as the latter is concerned, let’s take the law as an example. The famous family of law family in Yingchuan, Yangzhai Guo, is good at “Little Dulu”, and what he teaches is this law. She Zhong clan, also known as Zhong Yao's family, did not teach "Little Dulu".

As a well-known Confucian family of the state and county crown clan, the Xun clan naturally also has "family law".

In order to teach Sun Ce the "Family Law", Xun Zhen also invited Xun You over. Xun You's scriptures were better than him, but unfortunately, although he was enthusiastic, Sun Ce was weak. In the end, there was no way, Xun Zhen had to give up "Energy", instead, he specialized in teaching Sun Ce the art of war.

Xun Zhen is a desperate person, she knows she is powerful, and she is very cautious at ordinary times. Not only does she seldom go out, but she also tells Jiang Qin and the others that they have nothing to do and do not leave the barracks. Sun Jian said to the outside world that he was an old friend from Runan, but you There is still a difference between the accents of Nan and Yingchuan. Most of Jiang Qin and others are from Yingchuan. If someone who knows Yingchuan's accent listens to them, there may be flaws.

Thanks to Xun Zhen's calm temperament, and thanks to Sun Ce's disciple, he has something to do every day, and he stayed in the county house for more than half a month without feeling bored.

On this day, Xun Zhen gave Sun Ce a lesson in the art of war, citing his example of pacifying thieves in Wei County. After leaving school, he stood in the martial arts field in the back house to watch Sun Ce compete with Zhao Yun on horseback and archery. When I saw Sun Jian, I only heard that Sun Jian was quite busy these days, but I didn't know why.

When he arrived at the field, he saw that in addition to Sun Jian, there were several seniors in high-crown Confucian clothes sitting in the hall. At first glance, they looked like local scholars.

Xun Zhen didn't want to disturb Sun Jian's discussions with them, and didn't want to show up too much, so she stopped and turned around to go back.

Sun Jian's eyes were sharp, and when he saw him, he quickly stopped talking, picked up his clothes, stood up, and walked out, calling him as he walked.

Xun Zhen stopped, turned around, and looked inside the hall.

Seeing Sun Jian walking out, he said to these scholars, "I have guests here, so let's talk about the matter first. I already know everything about the affairs of the princes, so I have ordered Cao officials to handle them in the past two days. "

The few scholars stood up reluctantly, one of them had a dark face, and said to Sun Jian staunchly, "I will retire as soon as Duke Ming arrives, but for these few things, I hope Duke Ming will sooner. Do it well."

Sun Jian replied casually, "Okay, okay."

Even Xun Zhen who was outside the hall could tell from Sun Jian's expression and tone that he was perfunctory, not to mention the few scholars in the hall?

These scholars were even more unhappy. Some people wanted to say something, but they didn't say it. A few people threw their sleeves, went out of the hall, put on their shoes, and walked straight to the outside world. When passing by Xunzhen, someone Look at him.

Xun Zhen lowered her head, raised her sleeves, pretended something had caught her eye, and covered most of her face.

The scholar who looked at him probably felt that Xunzhen had an extraordinary appearance and was awe-inspiring. Although Xunzhen covered most of his face, he still kept his eyes on him until he walked over, turned his face, and glanced again.

Sun Jian went down to the courtyard, came to Xun Zhen's side, waited for these people to leave, shook his head, and said, "I can't stay in the county mansion, as soon as I stay in the mansion, someone will bother me!"

"Why are these people looking for you?"

"It's all trivial things that are not worth mentioning."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"One said that the family's disciples fled away and lacked labor. One said that the refugees often passed by outside his village, which made his house uneasy. One said that the loaned money could not be recovered."

Although Jing and Yang are not as chaotic as the Central Plains and the North, but these years have been incessant rebellions. With people like Sun Jian and others who "protect the environment and the people", the wealthy and big families are not badly harmed and have no shortage of food and clothing, but the poor people are not. As a result, many people left their hometowns and fled in groups, just like in the north. This resulted in a shortage of labor on the one hand and a large number of refugees on the other.

As for lending, that is, usury, the imperial court has restrictions on the use of usury, and stipulates a percentage of interest, but at the same time as long as the interest is within the legally permitted range, if the loaned money cannot be recovered, the official temple will come forward to help recover it,— However, this matter is said to be managed by the official temple. In fact, at most, the county temple should come forward, but it should not be managed by the dignified county government. The scholar who came to Sun Jian to help collect the loan is a person from a large family in Changsha County. , is nothing more than relying on clan power to come to Sun Jian to come forward.

Sun Jian was not interested in any of these. In the past, he was the county magistrate of three counties in a row and could not be promoted. Among them, he came from a humble background, but also because he did not like political affairs and his grades were mediocre.

Xun Zhen said with a smile, "If only Fu has insufficient manpower, we can recruit refugees. As long as the refugees are willing to settle in the county, they can recruit them. This way, it can not only replenish labor, reduce the hidden dangers in the county, but also help you in Wentai. Why not add to your achievements?"

"I know all these things, but it's just this trivial matter that I have to handle myself, but they also come to bother me!"

Xun Zhen only talked about apprentices and refugees, and didn't raise interest on loans, but it was because he despised the person who asked Sun Jian to help collect the loans. Now the people are struggling, the county is already short of labor and there are too many refugees, but this person is still paying back. Thinking of usury, and even trying to force Sun Jian to come forward to help recover, relying on the power of the clan, it is really unkind to the rich.

Thinking of this, Xun Zhen endured and endured, but in the end she couldn't hold back, and said to Sun Jian: "If the people are now displaced, the county is already short of labor. Taiwan should show this person with the story of Feng Neun."

Feng Zhen was a disciple of Lord Mengchang. Lord Mengchang asked him to collect debts, but when he arrived at the place, he burned all the bonds with a torch. Lord Mengchang asked him, and he replied, "It is better for the city to be just than Jiali."

Sun Jian didn't know who Feng Zhen was. After hearing the story, he shook his head and said, "Zhenzhi, you don't know the character of this person, and you regard money as your life, so how can you burn bonds?"

"For debt collection, one county and temple official is enough. With two thousand stone majesty, how can you do this? Even if you can't persuade this person to be righteous to the people, the county government can't come forward to collect debts for him."

Sun Jian agreed, and said, "Qingyan is very true." But with a bitter face, he sighed, and said, "It's just that this person's family is Changsha You's surname, what about Naizhi!"

Since the surname is Changsha You, but the debt cannot be paid back, it is obvious that those who borrowed the money are indeed poor and have no money to pay back. Xun Zhen sighed and said, "Since this is the case, I have a method. UU reading www.uukanshu.com may be able to solve this problem."

Sun Jian said happily, "What can I do?"

"You can pay the money to repay the loan for the people."

Sun Jian was stunned, then smiled wryly, and said, "Zhenzhi, don't make fun of me!"

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "I'm just joking."

For example, if Sun Jian pays the debts for the poor, he is slapping the "right surname" in the face. Sun Jianjian will gain a good name because of this, but the "right surname" will be pointed out, and once he offends the local government The right surname is a big family, and Sun Jian will be unable to move an inch in Changsha in the future.

Therefore, Sun Jian said that Xun Zhen was teasing him.

However, Xun Zhen was not joking.

In these years, the "right surname" who has been forced to pay debts and even oppressed the county government with clan power. It is conceivable that in the county, he must be doing a lot of evil at ordinary times. Waiting for the "situation in the county" to start the operation, in order to establish a prestige. He has done such things in Yingyin Xixiang, in Zhao State, and in Wei County. In the current situation of strong local power, a chief official, especially a foreign chief, wants to do something for the common people. When it comes to things, it is not enough to just compromise with the local powers.

This is the difference between Xun Zhen and Sun Jian's style of governance.

However, this is not to blame for Sun Jian. Sun Jian was born in a poor family, and if he offends the local powerful clan again, he will undoubtedly destroy his future. However, Xun Zhen, who came from a famous family, even offends the local power clan, because he has "famous people" as friends, but he can be seen in public opinion. Get the upper hand, so don't be afraid.

While talking, a person hurried in from outside the hospital.

Xun Zhen and Sun Jian looked at it, but the person who came was Cao Huanjie, a county hero.
