Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 218 Madam, what are you doing?
Cao Cao's words echoed in my ears...

——"This may not be easy to do, but it is not difficult to do. Whatever you do, you can do it according to your heart!"

——"When I was young, I used to cast five-color sticks to beat the powerful. What should I do? What should I not do? You should be clear. Since you are recommended by Lu Sinong, I, Cao Cao, can trust you!"

Walk out of Sikong Mansion.

Man Chong took a deep breath.

What does Cao Sikong mean?He seems to understand, but he doesn't seem to understand, does he really have to follow his heart?

He shook his head, as if he felt that Cao Sikong was unnecessary. Man Chong had always had this temper since he was a child, he was very stubborn in doing things, he accepted death and righteousness very much, even if he didn't follow his heart, he wouldn't do it.

But...Compared to this, Man Chong is especially puzzled.

why?Why did Lu Yu, the newly promoted chief minister, recommend him to Cao Sikong?
Man Chong has never walked through the door of Mr. Lu...

Tread…

The sound of low and heavy footsteps sounded on the street.

The chill poured in with the cold moon, and the wrapped body was a little cold.

Walking in front of a pavilion, Man Chong stopped, he raised his head, and the three words "Si Nong Mansion" on the plaque of the pavilion were particularly eye-catching. mansion...

In any case, Man Chong felt that it was necessary to come here and have a good chat with Mr. Lu.

"Please tell me, brother, that Man Chong is asking to see Mr. Lu."

Walking to the guards in front of the mansion... Man Chong said loudly.

The guard visibly paused when he heard this.

Immediately bowed his hands and saluted. "It turned out to be Lord Manfu, I have met Lord Manfu..."

After saluting, a look of embarrassment appeared on the guard's cheek.

"Mr. Manfu, unfortunately...my young master has gone to Yingchuan, and it may take a few days before he comes back, but...Young master mentioned before leaving that Lord Manfu will definitely come, and he asked the younger one to bring a sentence to Lord Manfu. talk?"

"What are you talking about?" All of a sudden, Man Chong's eyes narrowed, and his whole body became full of energy.

The guard paused for a moment, it seemed a bit difficult to speak, but he finally spoke.

"Damn...fuck it!"

what…

Dry?What the hell?

The words blurted out, Man Chong was stunned, what do you mean by fuck?Who are you doing?

"Young master Lu really... really only said that?" Man Chong asked curiously...

The guard nodded: "That's right, just... just that! Exactly..."

Hehe... fuck it!
Immediately full of joy, he seemed to have come to his senses, who is Xu Duling capable of doing, isn't it in Xu Ducheng... the group of evildoers?

Cao Gong's words and Lu Gongzi's words...have the same meaning.

It's just... they were too worried, even if there was no such reminder, he would still "fuck him"!
"Ha ha…"

Man Chong laughed abruptly, startling the guard.

"Farewell!" Man Chong left a sentence, turned around and left, at this moment in the sky, the stars were twinkling, and the moon was perfectly round!
According to legend, the full moon can make the sea tide rise...

In the same way, the full moon can also accelerate blood circulation and make people feel excited...

Affected by Cao Cao and Lu Yu's instructions, as well as the attraction of the moon, Man Chong felt in a good mood and had a strong fighting spirit. He walked towards the government office in Xu Capital City with solid and heavy steps.

There is his favorite new battlefield.

...

Walk down the street again...

"Mr. Manfu..." In front of the gate of the government office, several government servants saw Man Chong and rushed to meet him.

"People in the government! What's the point of making such a fuss?" Man Chong first reprimanded them, and then his eyes narrowed. "Why are you so panicked?"

"Mr. Manfu...something happened. Just now, someone committed a crime in the wine shop, and we arrested him!"

"But after asking, I found out that he...he is General Cao Hong's retainer! General Cao Hong has just been awarded the title of admonishing doctor and General Li Feng, and he is also known as a calf protector...Young...you can't decide Ah! We can only wait for Lord Manfu to come back."

Well…

Cao Hong?

This name is no stranger to pets. The doctor who advises and general Li Feng is second. The most important thing is that he is the brother of Cao Sikong. If he severely punishes his disciples, it will almost undoubtedly slap Qiao Peigong in the face and offend him. a group of people.

If it were someone else, I would definitely not go to this muddy water!

But...however, Xu Duling is full of favors today!

Ha ha!

This choice, for him, does not seem to be difficult!

Thinking of this, Man Chong's face turned cold, and he said loudly: "From now on, our government office only recognizes sinners who commit crimes, and never recognizes honorable and powerful disciples!"

Speaking of this, Man Chong paused for a moment, and continued: "I am Man Chong doing this Xu Duling, and you all remember three things for me - the law is not merciful! The law is not merciful! It's not merciful!"

Huo…

As soon as this remark came out, all the yamen servants were startled.

Daringly, this newly promoted Xu Duling is a hard stubble!

Even... Even General Cao Hong's disciples...will they be punished severely?

All of a sudden, all the yamen servants were a little confused.

Man Chong raised his voice. "Didn't you understand what I said? Hmph! Take me to interrogate this villain immediately!"

"Here...here..." A group of yamen servants agreed obediently...

want to come...

Tonight, there must be people with skin and flesh bruised, crying like ghosts and howling like wolves!
...

...

Here, Man Chong tried criminals overnight.

On the other hand, Cao Cao of Sikong Mansion was not easy either.

For several days in a row, he was quite busy. After all, the court had just entered the right track, and many things needed to be handled by him and the ministers at Shangshutai.

In fact, there are many things that Cao Cao wanted to ask Lu Yu for advice...

For example, the next strategic deployment.

There are not many people who can be trusted by Cao Cao when it comes to macro-decisions such as strategic deployment. There are only two people, one is the current Shang Shu Ling Xun Yu, and the other is Yu Er.

It can be said that Xun Yu and Yu'er are the most knowledgeable and the most organized in the entire Cao Ying!

It's just a pity...

Xun Yu has not been easy recently, Shangshutai is newly established, a lot of waste is waiting to be done, and many things need to be handled by him, which is no easier than Cao Cao.

As for Yuer...

Thinking of Yu'er.

Ha ha…

Cao Cao said "hehe"!

I heard that Yu'er has gone to Yingchuan, it's nothing at all, after all... there are countless talents there, it's understandable that Yu'er wants to get closer to them, but... Yu'er just stays in Yingchuan's brothel and red house. Five or six days!
Hearing such news, Cao Cao felt as if his body had been hollowed out...

Still young, Yu'er's energy seems to be...very strong.

think about yourself...

Cao Cao felt a little empty, mainly because he was tired!

Having said that...not just Yu'er, I recently saw my brother Xia Houdun also alive and well!

There are rumors that he can spend a whole night at home with his concubine, and I don't know his age. Could it be... Are the kidneys made of steel?

Ugh…

Thinking of this, Cao Cao felt inexplicably emotional.

"Husband."

But at this moment, a very inappropriate voice came from behind Cao Cao...

Cao Cao could not be more familiar with this voice—his wife Ding Hui!
and many more…

Cao Cao thought to himself, this is wrong, how could Ding Hui appear here?
Isn't she still in Chenliu County?Cao Cao specially sent Xia Houyuan to pick them up. Counting the days, Xia Houyuan has just arrived in Chenliu, right?

Of course...Cao Cao wouldn't know, how could the impatient Ding Hui wait until Xia Houyuan came to pick her up!
By then, the sunflower water...ah no...the day lily will be cold.

"Why did Madam arrive in Xudu so soon?"

Cao Cao hurriedly got up...

He always has a lot of respect for this wife.

This is because he slept with the wrong person on Cao Cao's wedding night, but it is more because of Cao Cao's gratitude to Mrs. Ding's family.

This is because in the past, the Cao family was implicated in the "Empress Song" case, and the Ding family almost turned into sellers, so they saved the Cao family by going up and down!
Ding Hui, who was Cao Cao's wife at the time, played an extremely important role here.

Since then, Cao Cao has been full of respect for Madam Ding, and is even more grateful to the family behind Madam Ding.

Seeing that Ding Hui didn't reply, Cao Cao took off his cloak and put it on Ding Hui.

"It's freezing cold, so you probably froze all the way here, right? Madam must be in a hurry to come to Xudu in such a hurry, right?"

Cao Cao continued to ask...

Of course it was an urgent matter. Ding Hui had already taken the prescription for "infertility" prescribed by Lu Yu for two courses. At this time, her lower abdomen was hot and her body was bathed in fire. The woman's strong sixth sense told her that she would definitely enter her soul tonight!
"Why? Can't my husband be in a hurry?"

rare…

Ding Hui said such a sentence.

She has always... She always talks with people in a cold tone, even Cao Cao is no exception, but...

Hiss... Cao Cao suddenly felt very strange!

When something goes wrong, there must be a demon...

What's happening here?
He suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Ma'am...you...what are you doing?"

Before Cao Cao could think about it, Ding Hui had already pushed Cao Cao to the bed in the study, and pushed hard with both hands, Cao Cao was pushed down on the bed with this gentle force.

The study in the Sikong Mansion has a bed, which is convenient for Cao Cao to take a rest if he is tired when he is dealing with government affairs.

The bed is not big, enough for one person, but it seems a bit crowded for two people.

It's just... Now, Ding Hui, who is as young as a wolf and a tiger, can't control so much.

"Didn't my husband ask just now? The servant's family is indeed in a hurry... This matter is extremely urgent!"

While speaking, Ding Huilian flicked her sleeve...

Extinguish the only small candle left in the study.

tonight…

Ding Hui became a knight, and Cao Cao became a tortoise on all fours!

certainly…

During this process...Ding Hui's heart throbbed again and again.

She doesn't intend to prove anything, she just wants to tell others that as a woman, she can also give birth, and she must get back what was lost.

In this day and age, such stubborn and resolute women are rare.

When the red candles are all extinguished, a good night...

Xu Chu, who was guarding the door, knocked on his forehead and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Cao Sikong works in the scrolls during the day, and Cao Sikong works in the bed at night. Cao Sikong's energy is really admirable! Haha...hahaha!"

...

...

Five days later, Lu Yu came back from Yingchuan, and even ... even tricked Guo Jia, the chief teacher of Taixue, to come over.

At this moment, Lu Yu and Guo Jia are standing by the Ying River...

During the Little Ice Age, the weather was particularly weird, even in May, it was still freezing, the snow on the banks of the Ying River had not yet melted, and the eaves were covered in ice that was a foot long!
The coachman sent Lu Yu and Cao Cao, who were angry, to this side...

Many craftsmen here have begun to build Taixue.

One after another, towers rose from the ground, and because of the participation of Xiaolongying, the whole progress was extremely fast.

Guo Jia looked at the Taixue, which was being built in front of him and was beginning to take shape, with deep emotion. "Mr. Lu has a good eye, and he was able to find a place surrounded by water on the outskirts of Xudu. It took a lot of effort just to choose the location of the Taixue?"

As Guo Jia said...

Just for this location, Lu Yu really spent a lot of thought.

In order to reproduce the original Taixue in Luoyang as much as possible, Lu Yu also chose the same site as the former Taixue—surrounded by water!
There is learning here...

Taixue is surrounded by water, called "Yong"!
The ancients paid attention to the roundness of the sky, the surrounding water like jade outside, and the square shape between the buildings and the square in the middle, which is in line with the calculation of yin and yang and Zhouyi.

Coupled with the literati's special feelings for water, water is also called jade wall, which means a gentleman, as smooth as jade, with endless changes!

Therefore... Taixue must choose this place surrounded by water!

Only in such a place isolated from the outside world can teachers and students read silently.

"Before Brother Feng Xiao came, I was busy with the first and second children, but when Brother Feng Xiao came, it was different."

Lu Yu smiled slightly, took out a blueprint from his bosom, and stuffed it directly into Guo Jia's bosom. "From now on, Taixue will leave it to you."

what…

Guo Jiadeng felt that he had been fooled...he had been fooled by Lu Yu!

Expand the drawing to see...

Sister... This Taixue, which is located on an isolated island in the water, has a total of [-] houses. In the drawing... the north side of the tall tower is scattered with classrooms, squares, libraries, pavilions, kitchens, equipment rooms, etc.

The only bridge connecting the island with the outside world is a one-meter-wide single-plank bridge on the south side for teachers and students to pass through.

This is a deep restoration.

It can be said that in the original Luoyang Taixue, whoever is qualified to squeeze through this single-plank bridge is equivalent to getting a pass for official career...

The image of the world is called "crossing the single-plank bridge"!
After reading the drawings, Guo Jia matched the buildings on the drawings with the buildings under construction one by one.

This is no small project...

Being fooled by Lu Yu to come here, he has become a supervisor before becoming a teacher, Guo Jia sighed again and again... It may be too late to regret it now.

what…

"what is that?"

Guo Jia noticed a stone tablet erected at the gate of Taixue.

"Brother? This is?"

"That..." Lu Yu's eyes moved over. "It was transported from Luoyang. Bandit Dong set fire to Luoyang, but he couldn't destroy the stele of Taixue!"

Hmm... Taixue stele?
Guo Jia narrowed his eyes slightly.

It can be said that no Confucian scholar in the world does not know about the stele of Taixue, and it can be said to have a great background.

Originally... this is a huge rough stone that has stood in Huashan for 200 years...

During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the famous writer Dongfang Shuo engraved eight "Qin Xiaozhuan" on the stone tablet - "The emperor's assistant minister, the country's pillar!"

Yinfeng seal carving, pure gold coloring...

This stele of Taixue, which serves as the school motto, is famous all over the world, and it has a history of nearly 400 years.

Guangwu years...

It took several months from Chang'an and cost hundreds of people to move to Luoyang, where it was placed in front of the Taixue Gate...

Today, Xudu is transported from Luoyang again, which can be said to have started a cycle of the rise and fall of Taixue, the rise and fall of the Han Dynasty, and even the rise and fall of culture.

call…

After all, Guo Jia's heart throbbed unavoidably at this moment.

"Brother Lu Xian, this Taixue, you have spent a lot of thought!" Guo Jia and Lu Yu walked slowly to the end of the single-plank bridge, stood under the stone tablet, and looked up at the eight characters of "the emperor's assistant prime minister, the country's pillar".

For a moment, Guo Jia inexplicably felt that the burden on his shoulders was a little heavier. He was cynical, but... he was really a teacher, he really recited these eight characters, and he also felt the responsibility on his shoulders.

"Brother, do these things? I'm afraid it's not just to capture the hearts of beauties?" Guo Jia asked...

This...how should I say it?

Lu Yu frowned slightly. At first, the construction of Taixue... was indeed because it was Sister Zhaoji's wish.

But with the erection of the stele of Taixue again, and with the continuous construction of Taixue, Lu Yu felt a sense of responsibility.

Now that we have come to this era...

Perhaps it is time to do something for the culture of this era, or for the scholars of this era. Some of the ills of the era should also be eliminated by some pioneers!

"Brother Fengxiao? Have you been to Luoyang Taixue?"

Lu Yu asked back...

Guo Jia shook his head.

The Guo family can be said to be in the middle of nowhere!
In Yingchuan... the Guo family is not as prominent as the Xun family.

Xun Yu was able to marry the daughter of the great eunuch Tang Heng, and from then on he established the title of "Three Ruos of the Xun Family". Xun You also took this opportunity to enter Taixue for further studies!
And he, Guo Jia, can only study in ordinary private schools. Compared with the systematic training of Taixue, Guo Jia studies more wild ways.

Taixue, for Guo Jia when he was young, can only be described in such a sentence - elusive and unattainable!

"I've never been to Luoyang Taixue yet!" Guo Jia smiled wryly...

"I haven't been there either." Lu Yu smiled slightly. "However, I heard that there are all corridors and columns in Taixue, blue tiles and white walls, and wide and simple sloping eaves like huge extended umbrellas, sheltering teachers and students from wind and rain!"

"The road paved with blue bricks and flagstones was dented by the feet of countless gentlemen and students!"

Speaking of which...

Lu Yu turned around, he felt that he was actually young at this moment, he thought of his previous life... his university, his high school, the place where he had studied.

There is no way... I can only continue Wenqing, and continue to feel emotional.

"The moss is drying and turning brown in the cracks of the bricks, waiting for the spring rain to wake them up!"

"The frozen river should wake up one day, Brother Fengxiao? Don't you think so?"

Huo…

It's so literary, Guo Jia was slightly taken aback, but...he could understand what Lu Yu wanted to express immediately.

It is true that in this troubled world where human life is so sloppy, is there really no one who cares so much about scholars?A person who cares so much about academics...and has extra energy.

Perhaps the former "God of Scripture" Zheng Xuan is one, so is Qiao Xuan, the eldest son of Qiao, and Cai Yong, Master Cai... Is my brother Lu Yu going to inherit their mantle?

And Guo Jia didn't doubt that Lu Yu's choice was right...

If the power of a scholar is used well, it will surely stir up the chaos of the world!
The meaning of Lu Yu's words is obvious.

... At this moment, it is up to Lu Yu, Guo Jia, and even Miss Cai Yan, and every Taixue teacher to awaken the energy of a scholar in troubled times.

actually…

Lu Yu thought of more than that.

The biggest root cause of the turmoil in the Han Dynasty was the aristocratic family, and it is not an easy task to leverage the aristocratic family now...even in this era.

If the stubborn disease of the aristocratic family is not eradicated, the big man will still be in turmoil sooner or later!
But to fundamentally shake the aristocratic family...

This generation is deeply rooted in traditional thinking, I'm afraid it's hard to...

What Lu Yu wants to do is to change the thinking of the next generation...

Fundamentally change the Han Dynasty monopolized by the aristocratic family.

Let more children from poor families enter the official career, and also cultivate new ideas and new sprouts.

Lu Yu didn't want to see the tragedy of the three families returning to Jin and the chaos in China!

Then...

Start from the thoughts of the new generation of young talents.

Thinking of this, Lu Yu felt... the meaning of Taixue is not limited to the vision of Sister Zhaoji, Taixue... These two words are very important to this era.

But... the most difficult thing is to take this first step.

...

"Brother Feng Xiao? Actually, I have always had a question..." Lu Yu asked Guo Jia while feeling emotional...

"My dear brother, you might as well speak out!"

"Why is it that the big Han has so much arable land, but most of the food is always in the hands of certain big clans? It used to be like this, and it's like this now." Lu Yu asked...

"This..." Guo Jia paused. "This is a disadvantage that has already appeared in the Han Dynasty! A large amount of farmland is in the hands of the clan, and the farmers are nothing more than tenant farmers, and precisely... the poll tax collected by the imperial court is collected from the tenant farmers!"

"The world is in chaos, the common people have no clothes to cover their bodies, and no food to eat, but what about the big and powerful clans?"

"Wine and meat stinks! Frozen to death! Unless these rich families can hand over their fields, otherwise... Even though Cao Sikong's side has a good harvest, most of the food is still in the hands of the rich clans."

Speaking of this, Guo Jia narrowed his eyes. "Brother? Do you want to..."

Lu Yu's face was serious, and he said in a serious manner: "What if it's spread into the mother?"

what…

Divide into mu?

Guo Jia hasn't reacted yet...

Lu Yu's tone became more serious. "If one day, the poll tax is abolished, all the taxes will be distributed among the fields, and a unified land tax will be levied. In this way, those who seize the people's good land will either return the land to the people, or... let these wealthy clans Hand over this huge tax!"

"If this decree can really be implemented, I don't believe that these giants have wealth comparable to the treasury and can continue to support tenants!"

As soon as this statement comes out…

Guo Jia's expression changed suddenly. "Brother, you must never bring up the idea of ​​'sharing the land into the mu'. Don't you know... Among those who seized the good land of the common people, there are many wealthy clans who are inextricably linked to Cao Sikong! Once you propose , you will be regarded as a thorn in the eyes of many clans!"

Guo Jia's words are already cryptic enough...

Admittedly... booth
Ding into mu can greatly increase the ruler's land tax!Narrow the gap between landlords and common people.

But...it's also a huge adventure to spread it into an acre.

This is no longer affecting the interests of a certain family, it is considered affecting the interests of all big families, including the Yingchuan Xun family, including the Cao family, Xiahou family...

As soon as this decree came out, it was enough to stir up the situation in the entire Sili area.

"Brother Feng Xiao, don't panic..." Lu Yu smiled slightly. "I know that it can't be implemented now, but...if the scholars in the world always agree with Brother Feng Xiao, then this will never be implemented!"

"On the contrary... if in ten years or twenty years, there are such a large number of talented people, their thinking is more advanced, and they are more courageous, perhaps, this big man's hundreds of years of ills can be cured. !"

Speaking of this, Lu Yu's expression froze.

"And this is exactly the meaning of building the Taixue with Brother Feng Xiao!"

"To eradicate the ills of the big man, start from the thinking of the new generation of talents!"

As he blurted out, Lu Yu felt countless lights hanging from his head. At this moment, he thought of "New Youth", Mr. "De" and Mr. "Sai", he thought of bright red names !
To eradicate the disadvantages of the times, why can't he, Lu Yu, follow the path traveled by those heroes?
In this sense, Taixue... is of great significance and far-reaching significance!

Huo...Guo Jia's eyes narrowed, at this moment...he suddenly felt that Lu Yu in front of him was a different person, one who was unfamiliar, but one who admired him!

Get rid of the disadvantages of the times and change the thinking of a generation!

Such a pattern...Guo Jia only feels that his pattern is small...

The thoughts of this virtuous brother Lu Yu are far beyond his reach, and similarly, he, Guo Jia, is also in admiration!

...
