chapter 44

In front of the office.

"Brother, you are back." Cao Hong was waiting in front of the door early in the morning. "In the ya office, the group of Confucian students yelling at me really has a headache."

Cao Hong's temperament was already irritable, and he heard the sharp words of various gentry and celebrities in the lobby, wishing to strip the bones of the 30 Yellow Turbans before giving up, Cao Hong's mood became more and more irritable.

What's so special, how do these Confucian scholars know how difficult it is to recruit soldiers these days?

30 yellow scarves, selected from them, can at least raise an army of tens of thousands of people, even if it takes ten years to recruit soldiers, I am afraid that there will be no such results. Those scholars know nothing!

"Zilian, is the discussion in the lobby still about the surrender of the Yellow Turbans?" Cao Cao asked back while dismounting.

Along the way, he also saw a lot of petition documents from the Yanzhou gentry. Without exception, he wanted Cao Cao to completely exterminate the Yellow Turbans and avenge tens of thousands of lives in Yanzhou, but...

"Hey, what else can there be other than this?" Cao Hong frowned... "A group of sour scholars who don't understand shit, they only know how to talk and talk on paper!"

Hearing this, Cao Cao's face also sank. After all, he didn't expect that the biggest resistance to the Yellow Turbans was actually within Yanzhou. Now, things became complicated.

You know, Cao Cao is very firm in his heart. The puzzle pieces that Lu Yu proposed to achieve hegemony have already become Cao Cao's strategic direction - Qiao Pei Wuren, Yingchuan Talents, Bottom Yellow Turbans... is one of them missing. narrowed.

For hegemony, this time, Cao Cao could only stand against the gentry and celebrities.

And the attitude, tough, must be tough!

Cao Cao's thoughts were surging in his heart.

at this time.

"My lord... it's not good, in the lobby of the government office, the famous person gave way to... and... Mr. Lu Yu of the Wei residence... They were arguing!" Several guards rushed over and immediately reported.

dispute?Bian Rang and Feather?

How did the two of them quarrel?Could it be because of the Yellow Turbans?
Cao Cao's heart "squeaky", the famous person "Bian Rang", this person is very good at sophistry, his words are sharp and unusual, after all, Cao Cao is also quite afraid, can Yu'er... be his opponent?

"Lead the way ahead..." Cao Cao ordered immediately.

"Here!" The guard turned around, planning to lead the way while shouting - Duke Cao is here!
But just took a step, "Wait..." Cao Cao immediately stopped them. "Enter the main hall from the back door, don't pass the message!"

what…

The words blurted out, not only the guard was stunned, but also Cao Hong beside him. "Big brother? You are the shepherd of a state and the head of the government office here. Why don't you take the main road and sneak in through the back door instead?"

"Ha ha…"

Cao Cao's beard. "Lu Yu, Bian Rang, this is a wonderful battle of words. If I go in too early, I'm afraid that Lu Yu has some scruples and can't use it!"

Originally, Cao Cao was worried about Lu Yu.

Reminiscent of the conversations in the past, Cao Cao was sure that "Yu'er" must also be a good debater. If he meets an opponent, he will meet a good talent. This "word battle" suddenly made Cao Cao look forward to it.

It also happened to use the sophistry of famous scholars... to verify the eloquence of "Yu'er"!

Cao Cao is full of expectations...

However, in Cao Hong's view!

Huo…

The eldest brother Cao Cao went through the back door specially for Lu Yu, and Cao Hong rolled his eyes. During this time, he had heard many times that there was an extraordinary genius in Qiao Pei's military camp - Lu Yu!
He gave the strategy of "guerrilla warfare" to hit the moth thieves...

But, when I saw him at the ya office today, apart from being a little more handsome, that is, mediocre, far from the unfathomable level that a counselor should have.

The big brother seems to be a little too polite to him, or, in other words, is it too important?

Thinking like this, Cao Cao was already heading towards the backyard, and Cao Hong hurried to keep up... Because of what Cao Cao said, now... Cao Hong is also curious about the young man Lu Yu.

...

In the back hall of the government office, Cao Cao and Cao Hong did not push the door into the main hall, but ordered the guards to fetch two small wooden benches and sit at the connection between the front and rear halls. He could hear the sound of the government office, but the people inside could not see him!

At this moment, Cao Cao was wearing an ordinary Confucian shirt, and there was a bit of literary grace on Yingwu's cheeks, but there was still no expression on his face, as if he was waiting for something.

Cao Hong sat beside him, tacitly saying nothing, but pricked up his ears to listen to the battle of words in the ya office.

In today's government office, Bian Rang and Lu Yu are already a bit tit-for-tat.

"Since he is a distinguished guest of Elder Wei, he must have some skills."

Because of Wei Hong's face, Bian Rang didn't dare to let people shoot Lu Yu, so he had to argue with him.

Of course, Bian Rang has always been conceited, in the battle of words, he has never lost!
"Boy, let me ask you, are the 30 yellow scarf thieves trustworthy? They have rebelled before and have a criminal record. If they pretend to surrender, then betray and attack the state? So what? Can you take this responsibility? "

The words were sharp, and there were even strands of cold light in the eyes... The atmosphere of the entire government office suddenly became colder and colder.

Wei Hong turned his head and motioned to Lu Yu. If Lu Yu didn't want to answer, he just pushed it. No matter how arrogant he was, Wei Hong wasn't afraid.

only…

Lu Yu's eyes were as clear and serene as ever, as if these sharp words did not stir up any ripples or ripples in his ears.
"Since this gentleman mentioned 'rebellion' and 'criminal record', let's discuss these two words in detail first?"

Lu Yu got up. "Just ask, why do these people at the bottom 'rebellion', and why do they have a 'criminal record'?"

This…

Bian Rang paused for a moment, and was about to speak... Lu Yu's words came out one after another. "Everyone should know better than me that the people at the bottom of the big Han have the most simple characters, and as long as life goes on, nothing will happen."

"However, while they watched the drought, flood, ice, locust, and plagues continue one after another, and the alien races came to the side, they wandered and had nowhere to go, until the husband and wife ate each other!"

"On the other side, the ministers who are full of poetry and books, Liangtian Qianqian, the eunuchs who take power and raid the people, as well as the aristocratic families and famous people in the prefectures and counties, including you, do you dare to confront the 'Sage Confucius'? The stone tablet swears that you have never squeezed or exploited them?"

Having said this, Lu Yu's tone became more serious.

"The cold does not dare to wear clothes, the hunger does not dare to eat, the people have Sie, but Mo Zhixi! At this time of despair, if you are one of them, you hear someone say, 'Just join us, you will have food, Would you believe it? If those people told you that the only way out is to rebel, would you follow?"

Having said that, Lu Yu paused again, he wanted to see if anyone refuted it.

Unsurprisingly, these gentry and celebrities became silent after realizing that they were also the culprit for forcing these low-level peasants to rebel.

As a scholar, who does not carry the ideal of helping the world and saving the people?After learning that he is an accomplice, who can still talk freely under the watchful eyes of "Sage Kong"?

In the final analysis, the biggest weakness of Confucian scholars is - to have face!
Seeing the silence around him, Lu Yu continued.

"These people are the most simple peasants. These people rebelled because they had no other way out. Do you think these 30 people have any great dreams to change the world?"

"Do they really want to overthrow the Han Dynasty? Establish their own order?"

"No, they went from Qingzhou to Xuzhou, and then from Xuzhou to Yanzhou, sleeping in the air, dragging their families with them, and all they wanted was to have a full meal, but to have a shelter from the cold!"

"In the past, I was wandering around, and I was in a precarious situation. Now as long as I surrender, I can have enough food and live a good life... When someone calls, Duke Cao can bring Yanzhou soldiers to protect them. In troubled times, such a day? It's never better. already."

"Don't talk about rebelling again, hehe... When there is a real rebellion, these people will stand firmly on Duke Cao's side for their own good life, and fight to the death with the real 'enemy'!"

When talking about the word "enemy", Lu Yu's eyes suddenly shot at Bian Rang, the chill was like a mysterious ice soaked in thousands of years!
