Han Shimou

Except for Wen Han, everyone looked puzzled.

Under the eyes of everyone, Wen Han first pointed to the sea: "This sea represents the people of the world."

After finishing speaking, he pointed to the big ship: "The oars in the boat represent the officials of the court. The oars in their hands are their power and burden. Of course, the person at the helm is the current emperor. The rudder of the ship is the Chao Gang."

Then he pointed to the line between the sea and the sky in the painting and said: "In the end, the sea and the sky in this painting extend separately, and finally meet together. Mr. Cao, do you understand the meaning of my painting?"

Cao Cao was fascinated by the sight, and when Wen Han asked, he almost subconsciously said what he wanted in his heart: "The line between the sea and the sky means that the sea is the sky, and the sky is the sea. The sea in the painting also represents the people of the Li people, that is to say , the people are the sky!"

"Master Cao is smart, I admire it." Wen Han saluted, and Cao Cao shook his hand, telling Wen Han not to be too polite.Wen Han paused and spoke again.

"Xunzi once said that water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it. Water is the common people, and the sea is made of water, which is the common people of the world. The boat is the emperor, and here I think it is the entire court. Because, if the water needs to The overturning of a boat should not mean that a monarch will be submerged. At that time, the dynasty should be changed. In my humble opinion, the boat is more appropriate for the court.

The imperial court benefits the country, does things for the people, and creates a peaceful and prosperous world.This sea is calm and calm, this sea can accommodate large ships, and the sea will flow wherever the ship moves it. The ship does not drive the sea, but the sea moves for the ship

The sea is the sky, the sea is the boat, and the sky is the boat.This is the consciousness of the sea, and it is also the consciousness of the sky.

If the common people have nothing to eat and nothing to eat, the sea will be full of huge waves, which will capsize the boat!This is what the sea cannot tolerate, and it is also what the sky cannot tolerate.When a ship is sailing in the sea, the sea counterattacks against the current. Heavy waves break up the ship. The sea is not driven by the ship. No matter how big or strong the ship is, it will only end up in pieces! "

Suddenly, Wen Han's momentum changed suddenly. Looking at Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao, he said with a straight-faced majesty like a great Confucian expounding great righteousness and principles: "So, I think that public opinion drives the world!"

There was a complete silence in the arena.The Fourth Young Master of Luoyang has seen so many great scenes, but at this moment, he was deeply shocked by this one painting.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! Such a water can carry a boat and overturn it! Right now, I should drink three cups, and this painting is even more extraordinary." Cao Cao was the first to react, clapping his hands again and again, He raised his wine glass.Wen Han and Guan Yu also raised their wine glasses, and the three of them clinked and drank.However, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Xu You were silent and did not respond at all.

Cao Cao frowned and was about to speak.Suddenly Yuan Shu stood up, with a trace of jealousy in his eyes, and said sinisterly: "Things of a kind gather together and people are divided into groups. The world is so big, there are so many low-level people, and most of their ideas are vulgar.

Heh heh heh, Wen Bufan talks about public opinion to drive the world.This is simply ridiculous!If the world is driven by the ideas of these low-level people, wouldn't the world become vulgar!I'm tired, so excuse me! "

Yuan Shu waved his sleeves and left without waiting for everyone's reaction.Not long after Yuan Shu left, Yuan Shao and Xu You also stood up. After Yuan Shao gave Cao Cao an inexplicable wink, he left with Xu You.

Guan Yu's face was full of anger, and Wen Han's answer expressed the aspirations of a humble man like Guan Yu who has great ability but no stage to show it.Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, and Xu You dismissed this and made rude remarks, which made Guan Yu really unbearable.At the same time, I was also moved and saddened by the fact that such people were in power and officials in the Han Dynasty.

"hahahahahahahaha!!"

Suddenly, Wen Han looked crazy and laughed out loud.Cao Cao looked at it and knew that he was feeling uncomfortable at the moment, but Cao Cao, who was also from a wealthy family, even if he agreed with Wen Han's answer, he could not express his agreement, he could only appreciate it.

Because, Wen Han's answer has completely offended the famous and wealthy families and hurt their interests.If this answer is made public, the famous and powerful families will definitely be furious.In the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the era of "gentry supremacy", poor scholars and ordinary people could not be allowed to have any power.

These powers must be firmly grasped in the hands of those noble families.For them, the common people of humble birth, no matter how capable they are, are the common people!No matter how capable you are, unless you are loyal to the gentry and have no threat, you can get a small official position.

Common people, ordinary people, people without status and background are ants! ! !This is the naked heartfelt voice of the famous family.

And Wen Han's remarks to drive the world with public opinion, isn't it against the gentry like Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Xu You?

Wen Han stood up, walked to the railing, laughed insanely, and said to Cao Cao and Guan Yu: "Brother, borrow a sword from Mr. Cao. I have a poem in my heart, and you carved it on the pillar of Wangyue Tower for me. Let me All poor scholars in the world will read this poem together."

After hearing this, Guan Yu stood up and came to Cao Cao's side.Cao Cao was afraid that Wen Bufan would say something that would offend the wealthy family again, but he admired Wen Han's literary talent in his heart.Under the gaze of Guan Yu's red and phoenix eyes, Cao Cao bit his lip, pulled out the sword from his waist and threw it to Guan Yu.

"Thank you Master Cao for borrowing the sword!" After Guan Yu bent down and saluted, he put his hand in front of a big pillar.

At this time, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Xu You had just walked out of the gate of the Moon Tower, and Wen Han came down from the tower and said loudly.

"Gloomy pine at the bottom of the stream, from the seedlings on the mountain, the stems are inches across the other side, and the shade is a hundred feet long. The world's men are in high positions, and they are handsome and down.

The terrain makes it so, and the origin is not one day.Jin Zhang is from the old industry, and Qiyeer Han Diao.Isn't Feng Gong great?The white head does not see the move! "

This poem was written by Zuo Si, a poet of the later Wei and Jin Dynasties. Zuo Si was born in a poor family. Although he had the ambition to help the poor and the talent of Luoyang, he was not reused after all.

This is the situation.Wen Han just used it to express his dissatisfaction with this era of "the upper class has no poor families, and the lower class has no noble families".Jin and Zhang in this poem refer to the two families of Jin, Rishidan and Zhang Anshi in the Western Han Dynasty. With the support of the gentry, the seven generations were the public.

Here, Wen Han alludes to the "Runan Yuan family" behind Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.As for Feng Gong, he refers to Feng Tang, who has great talent.This man was born in Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, and was still a small official when he was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.Here, Wen Han alludes to poor scholars in the world.

"Zhuzi! Daran!" Yuan Shu pointed at Wen Han angrily, his face flushed red, wishing he could run to Wen Han and slap him twice.

Yuan Shu was wearing a fine attire, so he could tell he was a wealthy man. His roar attracted many people from the street to watch.

Yuan Shao and Xu You also had sullen expressions on their faces. Wen Han's poem secretly satirizes these rich and powerful families, which is simply outrageous.Especially Yuan Shao, he heard that the family of Jin and Zhang mentioned in the poem was a metaphor for the Yuan family in Runan behind him.

"Wen Bufan! Good! You are not only extraordinary, but also have courage! I hope you will not regret what you did today."

Yuan Shao said to Wen Han coldly, and then he pulled Yuan Shu into the carriage, followed by Xu You.The three of them ordered the groom to leave quickly. The groom flicked his whip, and the carriage quickly disappeared into the street.

After the carriage left, it was on the Mochiyue Building.Cao Cao stood in front of the pillar, engrossed in reading the poem, while Wen Han sat beside Guan Yu and drank happily.It seems that he is not afraid at all, Yuan Shao's threat means.

After Cao Cao looked at it for a while, he sighed and felt a little bit reluctant: "A good poem is a good poem. It's just that Brother Bufan has offended the Yuan brothers to death. There is no room for maneuver. There will be. The power of the Yuan family in Runan is beyond your imagination. Brother Bufan, you should ask Brother Guan to erase the verses in this column, so as not to be criticized in the future."

"Manly man, every word you speak is a nail. My writing is extraordinary, upright, fearless, what I say is what I say. Why do you want to erase it? Master Cao, don't worry about this matter. Come and have a drink and talk together. Wouldn't it be nice to laugh?" Wen Han smiled and raised his glass to Cao Cao.

Seeing Wen Han's uprightness, Cao Cao admired him even more. He went to sit next to Wen Han, and had a toast with Wen Han.

Everyone seemed to have forgotten the unhappiness just now, and laughed again and again. After three rounds of drinking, Cao Cao was slightly drunk and grabbed Wen Han's hand: "Brother Bufan! Your answer is better than mine! But! My answer is my way." I will implement it, because I believe that in this world, only my answer is the most appropriate answer!"

"Oh. Then Bufan will wait and see how Mr. Cao will look in the future. If it is true as Mr. Cao said, no matter where he is at that time, Bufan will come here on horseback to congratulate Mr. Cao and recognize Mr. Cao's way. However, the result now Unknown. Bufan is not willing to give up my way!"

Cao Cao's eyes suddenly burst into light, and Wen Han looked at each other.Suddenly he laughed loudly: "Hahahaha! Good! Cao will also wait and see whether the way of seeing the uncommon is really the way!"

After speaking, Cao Cao proposed to Wen Han to use the "Painting of Sea and Sky" as the proof of the agreement between the two. Wen Han readily agreed and gave it to Cao Cao. Cao Cao carefully put the painting in his sleeve.

Cao Cao was overjoyed, and when he was about to pass out after drinking five or six glasses of wine, Wen Han and Guan Yu stopped the banquet, asked the shopkeeper where Cao Cao lived, settled the bill and sent Cao Cao back.

Cao Cao rented a house in the county, and it was Cao Cao's younger brother 'Cao Hong', Cao Zilian, who came out to greet him.This person is eight feet tall, with a waist of ten circumferences, and a beard full of stubble. He is extremely rough.According to the records of the Son of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Hong had rescued Cao Cao several times, and was even more loyal to Cao Cao with first-class martial arts.

Seeing that Cao Cao was drunk, Cao Hong hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and seeing Wen Han's face was strange, after asking a few words, he did not thank Wen Han, so he helped Cao Cao into the house on his own.

"Aman, why are you drinking with dubious people again? How many times have I told you that there have been many disasters and riots in the past few years. You have a noble status. If those people have evil intentions towards you, then you must How can I explain to my uncle!"

Just as Wen Han and Guan Yu were about to get on their horses and leave, when they heard Cao Hong's words in the courtyard, Guan Yu Danfeng stared and was about to get angry.However, Wen Han took his hand and said: "Forget it. Brother, this is a member of the gentry. In their eyes, except for the gentry, everyone else is a dubious person. Let's wait, don't worry about it, go back .”

Guan Yu snorted coldly, after today's series of events, Guan Yu's impression of the gentry is getting worse and worse.Wen Han and Guan Yu rode away quickly, as if they didn't want to stay here.

After returning to the manor, Wen Han and Guan Yu walked into the hall with slightly gloomy expressions.

Zhou Long walked towards him, and seeing Wen Han and Guan Yu's expressions were not good, he quickly asked, "What's the matter, did you have a dispute with the Fourth Young Master of Luoyang?"
