Silver Fox of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 94 Down the Mountain

When Shen Chen returned to Xianshan Academy, he could already feel the changes brought about by his fame.

The eyes of the brothers in the same school suddenly became different when they looked at him.

Around a dozen servants of the Deng family went up the mountain with gifts.

This is something that is done every year. Every time Shen Chen comes back from Huangmen Pavilion, he will give gifts to the teacher and fellow students.

In previous years, everyone would be impolite and rush forward, joking with each other and taking the gifts away.

Because there are no children from poor families who study in Xianshan Academy.

When Shen Chen gave gifts, they would also give gifts, all of which were worthless gifts, such as bacon, pens and ink, books and the like.

In addition, we have known each other for several years, and we are all good friends, so there are not so many politeness.

But this year, seeing Deng's servants carrying gifts up, no one came up to receive them.

At the gate of the mountain, Shen Chen stood there rather awkwardly, while the surrounding senior brothers just watched from a distance, like a group of strangers.

"Achen."

Song Zhong heard the news of Shen Chen's return to the mountain gate, stepped out, and said with a bad face, "Come in."

"Master."

Shen Chen cupped his hands and ordered the servants to deliver the gifts to the backyard, and then followed Song Zhong in.

Wang Can, Pan Jun, Wang Han, Zhou Sheng and other friends were all around him, and teachers from other colleges such as Qi Wukai, Pan Fan and Zhao Kui also came.

Everyone followed Song Zhong to the courtyard of the hall. It was March in Yangchun, and the towering tree in the center of the courtyard stood tall and graceful.

In fact, Xianshan Academy does not have a fixed number of students. The most formal class system in the Han Dynasty was Taixue, which had a strict schedule plan. Others, including Hongdumenxue, were not so formal.

And the private classes below are more casual, depending on personal wishes.For example, if you have time to come to class today, you can come, and if you don’t have time, just say hello to the teacher.

It is impossible for Confucius to teach 3000 disciples to teach [-] people every day.

So students basically come when they have time, and leave when they don’t have time. It’s a bit like a university classroom, and no one will force you.

When Liu Biao first established Xianshan Academy, there were not many students at first, but it has grown slowly over the past few years. In its heyday, there were actually only a few hundred students including teachers.

Usually, the number of teachers and students in class is usually maintained between dozens and hundreds. Today, the number is about three to forty. When Shen Chen came back, he was in class, and he happened to be having a big class together in the yard.

Today Song Zhong is speaking on "Fa Yan", which is written by Yang Xiong in the Western Han Dynasty.Although Yang Xiong's defection to Wang Mang caused some problems in the public opinion, his writings and thoughts were indeed praised by the Han people.

So there were many of him around at that time. Song Zhong himself was a great Confucian who had studied the Five Classics. He had annotations on various Confucian classics. The book is annotated, and he is a Confucian who admires Yang Xiong very much.

After Shen Chen came in, many students sat down individually.

The courtyard was covered with mats everywhere. Song Zhong stood under the tree, and the surrounding students were very quiet. When Shen Chen came in, a servant from the academy brought a mat. After he sat down, Song Zhong sat cross-legged On the table by the tree.

"Today's talk is "Fa Yan". Yang Xiong said, "A sage knows his fate with joy, but he does not work hard if he is happy with heaven, and he does not worry if he knows fate." I think it makes sense, what do you think?"

Song Zhong looked around and asked everyone.

There was no one talking around, and after a moment of silence, Song Zhong looked at Shen Chen and said, "Ah Chen, you just returned to the mountain gate, how do you feel?"

Shen Chen stood up and replied: "Reporting to Master, I also think it makes sense. A sage is enlightened and happy with the way of heaven. If he knows the destiny of heaven, he will know that the operation of the way of heaven is natural, and he will not worry about gains and losses and feel anxious."

"Confucius said: "Serve the monarch with the way", which shows that Confucius believed that serving the monarch is the way of heaven. If this is the case, why would some people disobey the order of the monarch and choose to attack it?"

Song Zhong asked.

Shen Chen frowned, but he also understood that today's situation probably wasn't because of his fame.

After all, he is a student of Xianshan Academy. If he produces outstanding disciples, the teacher will have honor, so he will not attack him because of his growing fame.

But his actions went against some people's thinking.

That is the thought of loyalty to the monarch.

In fact, there are currently two ideological trends in Jingzhou. The first is Liu Biao's current thinking, which is to separate Jingzhou in order to become self-reliant.

The second is to respect the imperial court, or even turn to the imperial court in an all-round way, and conquer the Quartet under the order of the imperial court.

Especially the second is the mainstream thinking, so after Liu Biao's death, the choice of most scholars in Jingzhou was to directly surrender to Cao Cao and hand over Jingzhou.

Because in their view, Cao Cao was serving the emperor to beg for disobedience, and the emperor was above everything else, so surrendering Cao Cao was not a disgraceful thing, but Jingzhou's return to the court was a matter of righteousness.

Moreover, there are many people with this kind of thinking from the academic school of Xianshan Academy to the officials under Liu Biao. For example, last year when Cao Cao welcomed the emperor, Liu Biao immediately sent someone to make a confession, but at the same time he sent someone to contact Yuan Shao and become an ally with Yuan Shao. .

Liu Biao was engaged in Deng Yi's governance and advised him to turn to the court instead of making friends with Yuan Shao.He was reprimanded by Liu Biao, so he abandoned his official position and went to Jiangdong.

Later, Jingzhou Biejia worked for Han Song and advised Liu Biao to turn to the court instead of continuing to fight against Cao Cao. Liu Biao was suspicious, so he sent him to Xuchang to see Cao Cao to see the truth. After Han Song came back, he asked Liu Biao again. Liu Biao asked to join the imperial court, but was almost killed by Liu Biao.

Including Song Zhong, it was also the main surrender faction. After Liu Biao died, when his successor Liu Cong wanted to surrender to Cao Cao, he was the one who gave Cao Cao the surrender form, and was scolded by Liu Bei when he passed by Xinye.

So there are so many examples of this kind, and there are countless people in Jingzhou who persuaded Liu Biao to join Cao Cao like crucian carp crossing the river.They didn't think that this was betraying the Lord, but they persuaded Liu Biao to follow the righteousness and serve the emperor of the Han family is the kingly way.

But don't they know that Cao Cao now holds great power, and in the name of "serving the emperor to beg for disobedience", he is actually "coercing the emperor to order the princes"?

Maybe someone faintly noticed it.

But just like when Wang Mang was humble and courteous, no one would believe this before the incident happened.

They all thought that Cao Cao was a loyal minister who was fighting bandits from all directions for the emperor.

Until many years later, Cao Cao began to add nine tins, ten crowns, and the sword on the palace. It has been killed by Cao Cao.

Later, people naturally forgot to be loyal to the great Han, and then with the help of the right time and place and the harmony of people, Cao Pi finally peacefully let Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xie obediently give up the throne of the emperor and created the Great Wei Empire.

So in general, from the perspective of God, people of later generations know that Cao Cao is the top version of Wang Mang, and while using the name of Liu Xie to crusade against the Quartet, they secretly prepare to usurp the throne.

But people in the world don't understand.

Therefore, most scholars in Jingzhou never felt that there was anything wrong with submitting to Cao Cao. Instead, they believed that fighting Cao Cao was fighting against the imperial court.

This is also one of the reasons why Liu Biao is unwilling to fight Cao Cao to the death.

Now Song Zhong is actually questioning Shen Chen through the words of Yang Xiong and Confucius, why do you fight against Cao Cao and the court?
He also wiped out so many soldiers and horses of Cao Jun, killed Cao Cao's younger brother and general, and offended Cao Cao to death.

Can't you be happy with the destiny and obediently obey the court's conquest?

Although this is not pleasant to hear, it is the truth.

Shen Chen could naturally hear the meaning of his words, but it would be impossible to go back directly, saying that Cao Cao was not a loyal minister, and he was "coercing the emperor to order the princes"?
It is estimated that among the 40 or [-] people present, [-]% of them will think that he is talking nonsense and will not agree with his words.

So it is necessary to find arguments and arguments to fight back.

So what is the argument for the argument?

First of all, it is necessary to affirm the orthodox status of the imperial court and recognize Liu Xie's title of orthodox emperor.

The second is to refute Cao Cao's actions, which are the orders of the emperor.

To separate the Son of Heaven from Cao Cao, we must not let everyone think that the two are one, since Cao Cao's order is the order of the Son of Heaven.

So after pondering for a long time, Shen Chen said softly: "Sir, you are actually asking why we are fighting against Cao Cao."

Song Zhong said: "Cao Cao entrusted the emperor to conquer the Xiliang army in Nanyang, this is the righteousness."

Shen Chen thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't think so."

"Why?"

Song Zhong asked.

Shen Chen said: "People in the world think that Cao Cao is conquering bandits from all over the world for the emperor, but Confucius said: If you are in charge of the government, how can you kill him? Cao Cao is cruel and unkind, and slaughtered hundreds of thousands in Xuzhou. How can he be a good minister? This is wronging the emperor and the people. Naturally, we have to fight.”

Song Zhong said: "I know that you are from Xuzhou and have hatred with Cao Cao. But how can family hatred be compared with the righteousness of the country? It is the righteousness of heaven for Cao Cao to serve the emperor. If a gentleman is righteous and not it, how can it be up to others?"

What he meant was that now that the country is unstable, family hatred should not be the top priority, but one should follow the righteous path like a gentleman, and not allow oneself to go astray because of twists and turns.

However, Shen Chen said: "The master said: The son wants to be good, but the people are good. The emperor was misunderstood by treacherous officials, Cao Cao was not good, even if he worshiped the emperor to beg for disobedience, how can the people be subdued if the killing is so heavy? This is not kingly way, but the heresy and dominance of Si Zaiye."

Song Zhong frowned and said: "Governance in troubled times should be a heavy code. The Qin State won the world with its dominance. Now that the Han Dynasty is declining, Wang Gang is weak. Cao Cao first assisted the emperor to fight against the ministers with his domineering. After the world is settled, the emperor will naturally be generous and benevolent. What's the point?" wrong?"

"The Master said: There is no way to go. Domineering is right, but the people of Xuzhou have never had the heart of disobedience. Even Tao Qian is trapped in the East China Sea and has no intention of causing chaos. How can he be angry with the innocent?"

Shen Chen immediately said: "If Cao Cao slaughtered Xuzhou in the name of the emperor, I have nothing to say, but the reason Cao Cao slaughtered Xuzhou was to avenge his father. At that time, the emperor was still in Chang'an. How could he slaughter the people in the name of the emperor? So this is just He just wanted to vent his selfish desires, don’t you think that if the princes rule over one side, they can wantonly kill the living people, and once they serve the emperor, they can get rid of their brutal nature?”

"This"

Song Zhong was stopped for a while.

Because he thinks that it is normal for Cao Cao to use heavy codes in troubled times, and that is how the Qin State ruled the world back then.

The problem is that Shen Chen's rebuttal is well-founded.

It is said that Cao Cao did not massacre Xuzhou at the emperor's will, but to vent his own selfish desires. How can such a cruel person bear the reputation of being a loyal minister for the emperor to fight against bandits from all over the world?
Even when Confucius talked about ministers governing for the king, benevolence should be the main thing, not to mention that Cao Cao is not governing for the king, but doing bad things himself.

So Shen Chen's argument was that Cao Cao was a cruel man, and the emperor was deceived by him, so they should clear the emperor's side and fight against Cao's bandits.

It’s just that this kind of argument still can’t convince everyone. Qi Wukai, another teacher of Xianshan Academy, stood up and said: “People are not sages. The Son of Heaven is great kindness."

Shen Chen nodded and said: "Sir, you are right. If you have something, you can correct it, and if you don't, you can encourage it. It is a very good thing to correct the mistakes you have made. But has Cao Cao changed it? At least I haven't watched it now. Arrived. Just as the Son of Heaven entrusts state herds to guard the four directions, if the shepherd has no flocks, can he still be called on behalf of the sky to patrol the hunt? The hectares have no way to attack the Lu State, the generals died and slaughtered the city, and finally led to the decline of the Qi State. Serving the emperor should be more benevolent. If Cao Cao treated the people of Xuzhou kindly and conquered Tao Qian after welcoming the emperor, how could the people of Xuzhou not eat pots of pulp to welcome the king's teacher? , Sincerity is also a statement. "It is a disaster for the country if a cruel person takes control of the great weapon of the country. If Cao Cao has corrected himself, then he shouldn't have sent troops to attack my Huangmen Pavilion. Is it true that the sword and ax are coming, just because he serves the emperor? Should he be killed by the neck?"

"Forehead"

Qi Wukai was speechless for a moment, people really shouldn't stop others from resisting when facing death.

Song Zhong said again: "In the past, Yao ruled the world. He gave the outline and ordered Shun and Yu; Xia, Yin, and Zhou belonged to his sons, and those who did not stick together were outstanding! Those who do not stick together are outstanding! Yao is close to the nine clans, and he is in harmony with all nations. Tang Wuhuanhuan conquered four grams. From this, it is said that those who do not stick together are excellent. Those who achieve great things should not stick to small details."

Shen Chen tentatively asked: "What does that mean, sir, let me give up the hatred of more than a hundred relatives, and when Cao Jun comes, I will bind my hands and feet and surrender to Cao Cao?"

As soon as these words came out, Song Zhong didn't speak, and sat there indifferently, motionless.

But without speaking, it has already expressed everything.

The people around were not surprised either, they all had expressions of course.

Don't think their ideas are weird.

At least in the eyes of people at the time, there was nothing wrong with this.

For example Lu Xun.

Does Lu Xun have any grudge against Sun Ce?
Of course there are.

More than a hundred members of his family were killed by Sun Ce.

and after?
When he was an official in Soochow and served Sun Quan, he spared no effort.

It is true that the great Han is now disillusioned, but in the eyes of the old and young of the Han Dynasty, there is nothing wrong with being loyal to the king.

What is Cao Cao's status now?

The emperor's close minister!

In the name of the emperor, he went to conquer the princes who ruled the other side.

In the eyes of Song Zhong and others, that is the party of justice.

Therefore, they believed that Shen Chen's rebellion against Cao Jun at Huangmen Pavilion, and finally wiped out [-] Cao Jun soldiers, and killed Cao Cao's younger brother Cao Ren, was an unjust act.

This represented that he was fighting against the imperial court and weakened Cao Cao's strength.

And weakening Cao Cao's strength is weakening the strength of the emperor, which greatly reduces the possibility of the emperor regaining lost ground.

Therefore, Song Zhong and the others are not discussing the hatred between Shen Chen and Cao Cao here, but are discussing why Shen Chen wants to fight against the emperor.

They don't understand why Shen Chen wants to fight Cao Cao. Even if he kills more than a hundred of your relatives, can't he give up his hatred and be loyal to the court for the sake of the emperor?
Although this kind of concept is outrageous in the eyes of later generations, it cannot be denied that this is indeed a kind of loyalty to the emperor in the Han Dynasty. During the Han Dynasty, many Confucian scholars believed this way.

On the other hand, Shen Chen's response was also very clever. He tried his best to separate the emperor from Cao Cao.

Because Song Zhong and the others bound Cao Cao and the emperor together, thinking that Cao Cao was a loyal minister helping the emperor restore the country.

Therefore, Shen Chen must correct this concept, criticize Cao Cao's cruelty first, and then use Confucius' words to tell everyone that Cao Cao is not a loyal minister who can help the emperor restore the country.

On this point, Shen Chen's counterattack was very good.

But it's a pity that they obviously still can't convince everyone, they still stubbornly believe that no matter what, you should not fight against Wang Ming.

This made Shen Chen laugh at himself with some disappointment: "Yes, the people are all grass and trees, and you can turn a blind eye to Cao Cao's slaughter. The emperor died, and you can sit in Jingzhou and ignore it. But my relatives were slaughtered and my home was destroyed. What about me? Can you pretend you didn't see it?

"Now that Cao Cao is conquering Nanyang, since he is conquering Zhangxiu, why did he send troops to attack my Huangmen Pavilion?"

"The Son of Heaven didn't send the princes to slaughter the people, but that prince wants to torture and kill the people because of his own desires, and the sword and ax come to your heads. Will everyone agree?"

"At least for me, I never thought that Cao Cao could serve the emperor and help the Han Dynasty; In fact, in the name of the emperor, he did wrong things, even if he rebuilt the Han Dynasty in the end, how is it different from the Tyranny of the Qin Dynasty?"

"The world is not benevolent, and treats all things as straw dogs; the sage is not benevolent, and treats the people as straw dogs. Besides, Cao Cao is not a saint or a virtuous man, and he cannot be right because he serves the emperor. Could it be that Liu Shijun protects the environment and the people and treats the people of Jingzhou well? Are you serving the emperor?"

Hearing his words, someone said: "Ah Chen, do you want to destroy Cao Cao, let Liu Shijun serve the emperor, and ask the emperor to destroy his ministers?"

Shen Chen said solemnly: "The power of the country should be in the hands of capable and kind-hearted people, not in the hands of capable but cruel people." It is called violence; slow order is called thief. "Governing the country should be lenient, and dealing with lawbreakers should be severe. Is there any reason to abandon benevolence and righteousness and bow to the knees of tyrannical bandits?"

"Nowadays, the big man is in a state of desolation, and the smoke of war is rising everywhere. The princes have evil intentions. If they are lenient, how can they convince the people?"

Someone else stood up and opposed it.

Shen Chen said: "Leniency does not mean being lenient to those rebellious princes, but lenient to the people and strict to those who commit rebellion. If the emperor and those who serve the emperor are strict with everyone, It is difficult to convince the public, just like the violent Qin Dynasty, which emphasized utilitarianism and relied on cruel laws, so that the people were full of resentment. After the founding of the Han Dynasty, Gaozu lightened corvee and reduced land taxes, and imposed lenient policies, and the world followed him."

"Excessive."

Zhao Kui said: "Although Cao Cao has acted cruelly, he has corrected himself now that he serves the emperor. I heard that he is recuperating in Yanzhou to appease the people. Isn't this an act of punishing the people? Is it because he once made a mistake? Do we stop listening to what he says and watch what he does?"

Shen Chen said: "But listening to his words and watching his actions, he still hasn't changed, right? There are hundreds of thousands of people in Xuzhou, and more than a thousand people from our Huangmenting clan, hundreds of people were slaughtered by him. We gave up the land and traveled thousands of miles. Returning to the ancestral land of Nanyang, I just want to leave my hometown to avoid disaster, and I don’t want to die. Is this wrong? But why did Cao Ren conquer Huangmen Pavilion? It’s not that I am fighting against the kingly way, but Cao Cao still does not change his brutality, and I also It was an act of desperation."

Song Zhong said in a deep voice: "But you can completely repel Cao Ren, but you have completely wiped out Cao's army and beheaded Cao Ren's general. Don't you hear that the prince of Chu died and the country of Xiao was destroyed? Now Cao Cao is conquering the Quartet in the name of the Son of Heaven. One day when he comes to Nanyang again, he will be angry with the people of Nanyang because of you, if he comes to attack Huangmen Pavilion again, if Huangmen Pavilion is defeated and slaughtered, wouldn’t it be too late for regrets?”

"Master, you mean that I should surrender after defeating Cao Ren?"

Shen Chen asked.

Song Zhong nodded: "This is natural. Cao Cao has the ambition to tolerate others if he can accept Zhang Xiu's surrender. Surrender is not surrendering Cao, but surrendering to the emperor. The emperor is the master of the world. Isn't surrender to the court a proper thing? "

Shen Chen laughed: "It's right to want the court, but it doesn't mean that Cao Cao is the court. The emperor just entered Luoyang, and Cao Cao led his troops to meet him in the name of serving the emperor, and then killed the heroes Tai Chong and Feng in order to take power. Shuo and others, killing heroes, is this the will of the emperor? It is nothing more than Cao Cao’s move to seize power, and there is no conflict between serving the emperor and attacking the thieves who are not ministers around the emperor.”

"Ugh."

Seeing that Shen Chen could not be persuaded, Song Zhongchang sighed and said, "Ah Chen, Jingyi, you have defeated me, go down the mountain."

"Master."

Shen Chen stared blankly at Song Zhong.

Song Zhong turned around and stopped looking at him.

"Brother Zhongxuan, Brother Chengming, Brother De Rong, Brother Hongguang?"

Shen Chen looked at his best friends in the academy again, but Wang Can and Pan Jun didn't say a word.

In the final analysis, it was because Shen Chen had a different stand from them.

Including Wang Can, these aristocratic families, the so-called great Confucians, never cared about the lives and deaths of the common people.

What they care about is the so-called righteousness of the Son of Heaven.

Cao Cao now represents the righteousness of the emperor, and disobedience to Cao Cao is disobedience to the emperor in their eyes.

Even if Shen Chen had a blood feud with Cao Cao, even if Cao Jun hit Huangmenting, in their opinion, Shen Chen should not have killed Cao Ren Lejin and offended Cao Cao to death.

So at this moment, Shen Chen had separated and conflicted with their ignorant and stubborn thoughts because of his position.

This point was already reflected when Shen Chen, Wang Can, Pang Tong, and Xu Shu had dinner together last time.

High-ranking dignitaries ignore life and death at the bottom, while celebrities and scholars cherish prestige more. In their eyes, ignorance and loyalty to the emperor and obtaining the power they want from the emperor are far more important than the so-called benevolence, righteousness and love for the people.

Therefore, Song Zhong was also ashamed of the apprentice he taught, but he wanted to disobey the court and let him go down the mountain.

Even Wang Can, Pan Jun and others were originally good friends, but because of their different thinking, they may part ways in the end.

For a moment, Shen Chen was a little disheartened.

In fact, everyone is right.

At least the concept at the time was not wrong.

Later, Wang Can and Song Zhong all took refuge in Cao Cao, which also proved this point.

In fact, not only Wang Can and Song Zhong, but most of the so-called celebrities in Jingzhou think so.

In addition to Pang Degong, Handan Chun, Du Xi, Zhao Yan, Fanqin and other famous Confucian scholars in Jingzhou all defected because Cao Cao welcomed the emperor.

Later, when Liu Cong offered Jingzhou, even Sima Hui did not refuse Cao Cao's conquest, but died of illness before taking office.

So to a certain extent, the political prestige that flattering the emperor brought to Cao Cao is unimaginable.

Otherwise, before the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao's performance was much better than Cao Cao's.If it weren't for Cao Cao to have Liu Xie, then Jingzhou scholars would definitely support Yuan Shao instead of Cao Cao.

Now because of Shen Chen's resistance to Cao Cao's behavior, it is difficult for him to stand on his own among his classmates. He was extremely disappointed for a while, so he knelt down and kowtowed to Song Zhong: "Although my teacher and I have different morals, but my teacher is strict and respectful, I just left the academy. , I also remember the teacher's kindness, Chen, I will leave here, but one day, the master will understand that Cao Cao is not a good man, and it will be clear day by day."

After that, he turned and left.

Everyone watched like this, Wang Can hesitated to speak, Pan Jun's eyes showed unbearable, and the expressions of the rest of the teachers and students were different, but most of them expressed regret.

Song Zhong didn't stay, and he was reprimanded by Liu Bei later, which actually proved that his thinking was completely inconsistent with Shen Chen's.

Although he is knowledgeable, but Yang Xiong is still the best in the Han Dynasty, isn't he also bowing down to Wang Mang, and Zhuge Liang despises him?
Therefore, there are countless people who admire the powerful and powerful, and there are also countless people who regard ignorant thoughts as their standard. Everyone has different ways.

Only one child in the crowd had bright eyes and suddenly said, "Brother Ah Chen, I think what you said is right, I will go down the mountain with you too."

Everyone saw that it was Zhou Buyi, a sixteen-year-old boy who often followed behind Shen Chen on weekdays.

Although Zhou Buyi is young, he is very intelligent. After Liu Xian sent him up the mountain last year, he worshiped under Song Zhong's family.

Song Zhong didn't want to take the child with him because he thought Zhou Busu was too young, so he asked Shen Chen to take it with him.

Originally, Liu Xian asked Shen Chen to take care of him, so Shen Chen didn't refuse. Although he was also very busy and didn't have much time to take care of him, as long as Zhou Buyi had something he didn't understand, he would definitely teach him carefully.

After one year, Zhou Buyi has learned a lot from Shen Chen, and has long regarded Shen Chen as a teacher. Now that he is leaving, he naturally wants to follow.

Anyway, Song Zhong was his teacher in name, and the knowledge he taught him was not as much as one-tenth of what Shen Chen taught him, and it was better to follow Shen Chen.

Seeing that only Zhou Buyi was willing to follow him, Shen Chen laughed and said: "Hahahaha, okay, Buyi, then you go down the mountain with me. Master, fellow brothers, I'm going out of the mountain." It's hard to know, I will do it", I will "integrate knowledge and action", let time prove everything, and see who is right and who is wrong!"

After finishing speaking, he took Zhou Buyi's hand and left the academy without looking back.

He didn't want to stay in this place full of the worst thoughts of feudalism.

Then leave here and let the whole Jingzhou see whether he was right or wrong in fighting Cao Cao!
