Three Kingdoms

Among the three pronouns "me, you, him" that are most commonly used by humans, only "I" is the only one that is certain and cannot be easily changed, while the two pronouns "you" and "he" are based on "I" There will be various changes depending on the line of sight, and it is not certain and unique. Therefore, people who are limited to the sight of "I" are very common ordinary people. Basically, they are like this. Those who can jump out of the frame of "I" and look at problems from a more objective perspective are rare. And little.

Celebrities, some people have wisdom and abilities beyond ordinary people, but there are also some celebrities who are actually ordinary people. Just because it happened to happen and I was blown up to the sky by some wind, I thought I was an angel and could fly...

Wang Ying was just an ordinary girl, and then suddenly she flew into the sky one day.

Even though she studied hard, her foundation was still there. When she was a child and teenager when she should have learned the most knowledge and mastered the most skills, she was forced to make a living and be trapped by her family and was unable to concentrate on her studies. Only now can she Although it was not too late to study, she had missed it after all. If she wanted to achieve certain achievements, she would have to work harder than she did when she was a child.

It’s not just one Zhongyong who hurts Zhongyong.

Just when Wang Ying in Beiqu was hesitant due to lack of ability, Kong Rong, a famous person in Lu State, was also hesitant.

Kong Rong became famous as a boy.

Becoming a celebrity and gaining fame replaced part of Kong Rong's original study time in his adolescence. Even though Kong Rong could choose some cultural gatherings, banquets, or performances to attend or not, there were some that he couldn't avoid and could only be invited to participate, and then showed them to the people around him over and over again. Perform the trick of giving pear, and then answer the question, and then be greeted by an exclamation of oh oh oh, and then repeat the above process again...

I would like to ask, in such an environment, how many people can be mentally tough, able to find tranquility amidst the chaos, and continue to learn?

Anyway, Kong Rong was delayed to some extent.

Kong Rong was named the first of the Seven Sons of Jian'an in later generations, but what about the poems Kong Rong left behind...

It is said that there are many, including poems, odes, inscriptions, discussions, six-character essays, policies, expressions, appeals, edicts, and secretaries. However, not many have been passed down to later generations and have passed the test of time.

Said they were separated.

Uh, does pear count?

It seems that being separated is nothing, and it seems to be normal. After all, there have been many separations in anthologies, poems, and poems in history, but the second child of the Seventh Son of Jian'an stood up and slapped Kong Rong in the face. Chen Lin, the second eldest son in Jian'an, has "Essays on Yuzhou for Yuan Shao", "Drinking Horses in the Great Wall Grottoes", "Essays on General Wu's School Department", "Ode to Shenwu", "Ode to Wujun", "Ode to Stop Desire", "Ode to the Goddess" "Fu" and so on have been passed down to later generations. Under the succession of countless waves, they still shine with indelible brilliance.

The reason why Kong Rong can be the eldest of the seven sons of Jian'an is because he is dead, and the dead are the eldest. The other reason is that he is dead. The Kong family of Lu and the nobles of Jiyu can gain a certain amount from Cao Pi's approval and praise. The advantage is that there will not be a fight over who is the leader of the seven sons. There are two peaches to kill the three men, and there is also a boss position to kill the six younger brothers...

Born in fame, died in fame.

This is probably the best summary of Kong Rong.

Kong Rong's ability could not support his own fame, so his fame brought him disaster, and he himself was still immersed in fame and could not extricate himself.

If you take your eyes away from Kong Rong as an individual and temporarily escape from the vortex of power disputes, you will find that Kong Rong's current crisis is actually very easy to solve.

Politics itself is a dangerous game. It does not mean that you can play when you want to play, and you don’t have to play when you don’t want to. Once you enter the game, you must abide by the rules of the game, unless you have the ability like Fei Qian. , overturned the chessboard, and started a new game by himself. Otherwise, he would have to obey the chessboard obediently, otherwise he would be swallowed up by other chess pieces.

Kong Rong wanted to show his detached attitude and continue playing in the chess game. Even if he really wanted to leave the chess game, he didn't have the ability and was dragged onto the chess board again by others...

Just like Cao Pi needs the dead Kong Rong as his banner among the gentry's children, the current Lu State, and even the gentry in Yuzhou and Jizhou, also need Kong Rong as a banner to fight against the central court, especially Cao Cao's political clique. "Oppression and extortion."

"Such little thieves certainly don't have the guts to hurt Brother Kong!" 』

"Even if someone dares to offend a living literary genius, today's literary giants must ask us whether we agree!" 』

"Yep! 』

"Coax..."

Before Kong Rong really encountered anything, countless people came and went, either sending one or two heart-warming words to Kong Rong, or simply sending some gifts, and some even expressed their intention to give Kong Rong Kong Rong sent some singers, dancers and other things to make Kong Rong feel at ease and feel comforted, so that he could continue to stay in the state of Lu safely and continue to be a banner against the central court and Cao Cao's tyranny.

Kong Rong was also in such an atmosphere, secretly anxious in his heart while appearing calm on the surface, until...

When Xi Lu led his troops to Confucius' Mansion, the sun was already setting in the west.

The sunset is like blood.

Behind Xi Lu, there were soldiers directly dispatched from Xu County. Their faces were solemn. Under the setting sun, they looked like they were covered with a layer of golden armor, or as if they were stained with blood. Same as cleaning up.

Confucius Mansion is located on the east side of the county town and occupies a large area. To get from the west gate to Confucius Mansion, you must pass through the Central Cross Street and the county government office. At the crossroads, the county captain and some local soldiers Cao Ding were already maintaining order.

The local county lieutenant has a medium build and an average appearance. He is the type who will automatically dissolve and disappear within a short period of time if he is thrown into the crowd. He does not have the chivalry of an outlaw or a martial artist, only the nervousness and nervousness of an ordinary person. Helpless, when he saw Xi Lu coming with his soldiers, he could only bow his head deeply and salute, remaining silent.

Xi Lu just raised his head and walked forward slowly, with no intention of talking to the county captain.

The worry itself is also difficult.

Of course, if he had to choose between making things difficult for himself or making things difficult for others, then Xi Liu would naturally choose to make things difficult for others without hesitation.

Although the emperor Liu Xie said that he should not use force, but should fight with words and not be rude, but in Xu County, it was not the emperor Liu Xie who kept his word.

But Cao Cao.

Xi Liu also felt a little lucky in his heart. He felt that Kong Rong had such a great reputation and claimed to be one of the best friends in Xu County. Anyone who attended any literary gathering would be treated as a distinguished guest. Such a situation A person must have some spies, right? Although I am not procrastinating when I come all the way, there will definitely be someone who reports to Kong Rong. If Kong Rong escapes by then, wouldn't he be able to fulfill Cao Cao's order again, and it won't be counted as a crime? Against the emperor's wishes?

Anyway, this trip back will definitely require you to be "sick" for several months, at least half a year!

Then the next one to arrest Kong Rong will not be me...

Xi Lu was thinking as he moved forward, and then inevitably turned his attention to Cao Xun, a descendant of the Cao family beside him.

Cao Xun, who was young, about twenty years old, was already a military prince in charge of the direct guard.

Comparing people to each other will make people angry. Reincarnation is really a technical job. Among thousands of competitors, you not only have to stand out, but you also need to know what your future is before you go out. You may not even have the chance to reincarnate. You can go directly to the wall or It went into the sewer...

Cao Xun obviously noticed Xi Liu's gaze, nodded slightly and said, "What are your orders, Master Yushi?" 』

"I don't dare, I don't dare..." Xi Lu smiled politely, "It's really admirable to see the military lord working diligently on duty." 』

Cao Xun forced out a smile and said, "Since you are in your position, you should be loyal and diligent in your work, and you should not give wrong praise to the imperial censor." ’ After he finished speaking, he walked away without any intention of continuing the conversation.

Xi Lu was speechless when he saw this.

Only when people have great desires can they have great courage. Only when a fire is burning in your heart will your whole spirit and energy look different. If you lose confidence in life and lose your desire, everything will be at stake.

Others were like this, and he was also similar. Xi Lu felt that even if he could hide his previous behavior from the emperor, he might not be able to hide it from Cao Cao.

For example, Xi considers his previous remarks that he is not obsessed with fame, but only for the sake of the people, legal fairness, etc., meaning...

If it was just for fame and not afraid of death, then he should be like the previous magistrate of Qinghe County and kill him directly in front of Cao Cao!

Only then can one be able to abide by the belief in one's heart and become the name of sacrificing one's life for righteousness. But now that Xi Liu is adding extra drama and coquettishness, it is very clear that he is not only afraid of death, but also greedy for fame, or power.

But what can be done?

Who is not greedy for money or power?

Xi Liu comforted himself skillfully. Anyway, he came to Xu County from Chang'an just to gain his own power. If it was really just for the country, the Han, or the emperor, well...

The feedback given by Cao Cao is also very interesting. If he is obedient, he will be raised. If he is disobedient, he will be like Kong Rong.

In this way, Xi Lu not only represents the emperor Liu Xie, but also becomes the shape of Cao Cao. It can be said to be a dual purpose, connecting both ends. Of course, it also means that Xi Lu is no longer dispensable. , it will naturally become more important.

Xi Liu was quite satisfied with this result, except that some people might scold him behind his back, which would be a bit unpleasant.

Just scold me, you won't lose a piece of meat anyway.

Corrupt officials since ancient times, uh, no, how many capable ministers have not been scolded since ancient times?

He is not worried about whether this will restrict his future path, or whether it will make those who care about the Han Dynasty despise him.

Look at how many people Cao Cao killed and how many of the nobles in Yuzhou didn't fart. You can tell that these so-called great Han Qingliu and Sheji Crest Liang are like this. Their abilities are limited and they can't do anything anymore. As long as the one with the greatest reputation can be killed. Kong Rong has taken care of things, so what else can happen?

As for someone like Chen Lin, what can a great writer do? Didn't Chen Lin also have sex under Yuan Shao's butt back then? What's wrong. Is it possible that Yuan Shao's ass is more noble when licked? Aren't you licking Cao Cao's ass obediently now? Everyone is licking together, no one is cleaner than the other!

It’s all over, let’s work together to revive the prosperous age of the Han Dynasty!

Xi considers psychological construction along the way.

At the county government office, the Prime Minister of Lu State was already waiting outside the door.

Xi Li didn't waste any time and directly conveyed the order issued by Cao Cao to him.

Lu Guoxiang looked at it, and a look of panic suddenly appeared on his face, "This... this, this..."

Xi Lulu said calmly, "Let me ask, Prime Minister of Lu, do you want to obey the order or resist the order?" 』

The Prime Minister of Lu's face flushed red, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. He seemed to have been stagnant for a long time, and as if he only had one or two breaths. 』

Xi Su nodded, then waved, "Lead the way!" 』

Prime Minister Lu wiped his sweat and moved forward in response, but the words in the order were still lingering in his heart, "If there is resistance, shoot without mercy!" 』

"Demon Town Museum"

In the beginning, it was just an invitation and a solicitation.

Disobey.

So I told you, please cooperate.

Still refused.

Immediately some officials came to arrest him.

He started to fight back the civil servants who came.

Now it has become "If there is resistance, shoot without mercy!" 』

If you say it's rude or disrespectful, you really can't say that. After all, all the previous things can be regarded as courtesy first and then attack.

But what if it really becomes "If there is resistance, shoot without mercy"? !

However, the situation no longer allowed Lu Guoxiang and others to think and delay. A group of people rushed towards the east of the city with great momentum.

Among the people in the east of the city who were either rich or noble, the Kong family was not the only one.

The recent affairs of the Kong family have also caused some tension in the surrounding atmosphere. When Xi Lu Guoxiang and others rushed into the inner square with their soldiers, the servants and other servants of each household in the streets and alleys, etc., It was like a chicken flying like a dog, and they dispersed with a bang. Some hurriedly returned the letter, and some secretly hid in the corners, and some stretched out their heads to peek.

Kong's gate is tall and has bright lintels.

After entering Fangjie, there is no need for special guidance at all, you can see it at a glance.

Xi Lu looked at the tall lintel of the Kong family in the distance, and suddenly couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth. He didn't know why he was smiling like this. Maybe it was because of jealousy or some mockery?

When the servants of the Kong family in the village had just rushed back to the house, Xi Lu and his soldiers had already rushed to the door.

Cao Xun took the lead, and his horse rushed straight through the lintel.

In front of the Confucius Mansion, there was a servant standing in front of the main entrance holding a wooden pole. His hands and feet were trembling a little, but he still shouted: "This is the place where the descendants of the saints are born, and the inheritance of culture!" You soldiers, please do not act recklessly..."

"Hmph..." Cao Xun waved his hand, "note it down!" The powerful slave of the Kong family resisted arrest with a stick! kill! 』

Immediately, a soldier opened his bow and shot, killing the more or less loyal servant in front of the steps with one arrow.

The rest of the soldiers either followed Cao Xun and rushed into the Confucius Mansion, or ran around in the courtyard gate corridor with swords and guns, driving all the Kong family servants and so on to the courtyard and kneeling down!

The originally gorgeous and beautiful house soon became a mess.

All kinds of crying and howling sounds are endless.

In the Kong family's house, people have been panicking in recent days. The head of the family, Kong Rong, is at the forefront of the storm. Although he tried his best to comfort him, the conclusion has not been reached after all. At the same time, another Kong family's descendant, Kong Qian, was also imprisoned in Xu County. Among them, most of the children of the Confucius family are good men who live and rent money. When things happen to them, they are cowardly. When faced with difficult situations, they basically look at you and me, and then they sigh together, stamp their chests, and finally drink together and get drunk. If you get drunk, you will forget everything.

This tragic situation before them, the Kong family never imagined that it would befall them one day.

Because they are "descendants of saints", "literary conscience", "representatives of China", and "symbols of civilization". They are naturally superior to others, and they have nothing to worry about when they land...

But they had no idea that even Confucius himself was not willing to wear the most glorious title of "descendant of the saint".

Confucius knew in his heart how many benefits he would have after becoming a "sage", but he denied that he was a "sage".

Confucius was always modest, rigorous, and clear-headed in his scholarly conduct, so he always lowered his posture and spoke cautiously when talking about himself. He believes that there are four categories of people: "born knowing", "learning to know", "stuck to learn" and "stuck but not learning", and only those who are "born to know" are likely to become saints, and Confucius himself was at most "knowing through learning".

Confucius said: "I am not born with knowledge, but I am a person who loves ancient wisdom in order to seek it." 』

As for those who want Confucius to become a "sage", it is not Confucius himself, but related stakeholders, such as Zigong. Zigong was the initiator and promoter of the earliest "sage-making movement".

It cannot be denied that Zigong is indeed a talented and affectionate person, and he also has a strong sense of belonging to Confucius.

When Confucius died, because he was not around at the time, after the three years of mourning for his disciples, he stayed alone and continued to observe mourning for another three years. This shows that his feelings for Confucius were extraordinary.

Respecting Confucius as a saint was carried out during this process.

Mencius recorded the situation at that time. Zigong, Zaiwo, Youruo and others jointly planned and launched a saint-making movement. Part of its purpose was to respect Confucius, but the larger part was because after Confucius's death, Confucius His thoughts and articles were slandered and eliminated, and the entire faction was about to collapse. Therefore, in order to preserve Confucius' thoughts and maintain the status of the Confucian sect, they took out a "saint" flag in front of Confucius' tombstone.

The three of them joined forces to build momentum, comparing Confucius to Yao and Shun, the king of a hundred generations, as well as unicorn, phoenix, Mount Tai, rivers and seas, etc., exaggerating Confucius's ideological realm and historical achievements to the extreme...

Anyway, if you lose your shame first, you won't feel embarrassed by anything.

Even so, Confucius did not ascend to the status of a saint during the Warring States Period, but was gradually promoted to the status of a saint in later generations.

But now, when this sanctified descendant of the saint was trampled under his feet, he suddenly discovered that this so-called descendant of the saint, the descendant of the Kong family, was not as powerful as Kong Rong and others imagined...

"Those who resist arrest and obstruct the incident will be killed!" 』

The swords and guns were raised, and everything in Kong Rong's mansion, big and small, shook like chaff.
