Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 26 Six relatives do not recognize Kong Wenju

"Father? You, you...Mr. Bai...were Lu Bu's men forcing you? This...I don't agree!" Kong Rong said angrily.

Kong Rong also saw Cao Cao's conspiracy before, but... he never expected that it would unfold like this!

Kong Rong was very angry. Although he had nothing to do with him, he had completely regarded Bai Tu as a great scholar like himself, so he felt very connected.

In Kong Rong’s opinion, who was Lu Bu?

Even though the killing of Dong was a righteous one, and Lu Bu was now officially certified as a loyal person by the Han Dynasty, most Confucian scholars, including Kong Rong, felt that this guy was very dirty!
Kong Rong imagined for a moment, if he was forced to recognize Lu Bu as his adoptive father... which one would be intolerable?

Even though Lu Bu had a big fist, Kong Rong really dared to argue with him.

However, Bai Tu stopped him at this time, and said half-comforting, half-warning: "Wenju misunderstood! How could someone force me? Of course it was of my own free will!"

Seeing Bai Tu's expression of "No one can separate me and my adoptive father", Kong Rong felt like he had hit a ghost.

"Voluntary? You... just to go to Yangzhou? Wait, if you are voluntary, Lu Bu... Well, General Lu is not angry?" Kong Rong thought for a while, if someone really wants to take the initiative to worship Lu Bu as his adoptive father, It should be [-]% cold by now.

"Ahem, I do feel a bit like Meng Lang, but it's all Chen Gongtai's fault! But my adoptive father didn't blame me either." Bai Tu said sarcastically.

"Chen Gong? What does it have to do with him?" Kong Rong became increasingly confused.

"This man...is a beast!" Bai Tu immediately began to attack Chen Gong, accusing him of encouraging him to take advantage of Lu Lingqi, who was only 16 years old.

Is this what people do?

"Why do I think Gongtai's idea is better... Ahem, let's not talk about this first. In other words, do you really want to go to Yangzhou to take office?" Kong Rong originally wanted to say that Chen Gong's idea was more appropriate, but in order to avoid Bai Tu said that he was also an animal, so he swallowed his words.

"That's right, Cao Cao... you will know from what he did in Xuzhou that he is definitely not a good person! Wen Ju is a scholar, so you might as well go back to your hometown in Lu County and concentrate on completing the correction of "Qie Yun"! This is It's a great event whose merit lies in the future." Bai Tu specially tried to persuade him.

After all, with Kong Rong's temper, if he returned to Xudu, it would be difficult to guarantee his future safety.

"You want me to go to Lu County to correct "Qie Yun" by myself?" Kong Rong glared at Bai Tu and said.

"What's wrong?" Bai Tu asked confused.

"In your opinion, I, Kong Wenju, am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and who also takes away humanistic merits?" Kong Rong said excitedly.

"No..." Bai Tu was also wronged. How could Kong Rong understand this meaning?
When Kong Rong first came to Peijun, he already knew why the accent in "Qie Yun" was so strange, especially after meeting Lu Lingqi - it was the standard accent of a Bingzhou woman!
Therefore, Kong Rong also talked to Bai Tu about the standard pronunciation before.

In fact, there is no unified standard now, but what Kong Rong means is that it is better to use the accents of the Central Plains, that is, Sili, and Yanyu and Xu Sanzhou, which have the largest number of users, as the correct pronunciation.

Although Bingzhou and Liangzhou are also states, their populations are very small. According to the statistics before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the registered population of Liangzhou was only 47, and that of Bingzhou was only 69...

Jingzhou has the largest population of 627 million, followed by Jizhou with 580 million and Yizhou with 568 million. The seemingly small Yuzhou and Yanzhou also have 516 million and 404 million respectively.

On the one hand, it's because Liangzhou and Bingzhou are indeed relatively desolate and have less population. On the other hand... these two states are almost inhabited by Han and Hu people. You can't tell much just by looking at the area. People who really know it know that maps can't explain the problem. , the Han-Hu border between Liangzhou and Bingzhou is very blurry. Within the scope of some Han Dynasty maps, there are actually many Qiang and Hu, but the registered population only includes people from the Han Dynasty!

Natural accents are also influenced by Qiang and Hu. The accents in Liangzhou and Bingzhou are quite special, and the accents of men and women are different...

When Kong Rong and Bai Tu talked about this before, their tone was also very strange - Mr. Mingming's accent was quite correct, so why did "Qie Yun" have a Bingzhou accent?It’s still a Bingzhou woman’s accent!

Bai Tu also accepted the opinions humbly, and now he just wanted to hand over "Qie Yun" to Kong Rong for compilation.

After all, having marked hundreds of characters before had already given Bai Tu a headache.

Anyway, the spiritual power-increasing effect of "The Enlightenment Grandmaster" will also be effective for the enlightenment books that are processed and adapted from the Four Books of Enlightenment, but the effect is less...

However, Kong Rong didn't think so. He just wanted to assist Bai Tu in writing. If he directly asked him to write, wouldn't he take away Bai Tu's literary skills?Are you embarrassed to do this?
"I, Kong Wenju, are sitting upright. If Mr. Bai agrees, this Yangzhou... If Mr. Bai dares to go, Wenju will also dare to go!" Kong Rong said seriously.

Bai Tu felt from the bottom of his heart that a great Confucian like Kong Rong could only play a limited role in troubled times. He could stay in one place and learn knowledge to avoid the worst times. Later, when the situation became clearer, he could go out and do good deeds. It's just a thing...

What's the use of Yangzhou with him?Can he lead troops, or can he govern the place?I'm afraid it won't work, even if it is to govern the place, Kong Rong is only suitable to govern in peacetime!

However, thinking of Kong Rong's deeds and knowing that this guy went crazy and refused to recognize his relatives, Bai Tu had no choice but to agree for the time being.

The next morning, Bai Tu was still a little shy and didn't know how to face his new "adopted father"...

Originally, Bai Tu didn't think so much about it, he just treated him as a godfather and visited relatives during the holidays, but... everyone else looked very formal, which made him a little at a loss.

At this moment, Lu Bu took the initiative to send someone to find him, saying that he would go to the mansion for a "family banquet" at noon today.

On the way, Bai Tu met Lu Lingqi and greeted awkwardly: "What a coincidence?"

Lu Lingqi rolled her eyes: "What coincidence? You're going to the family dinner, so why don't I go?"

"That's right, we will be a family from now on!" Bai Tu said smoothly, but after saying that, he felt awkward anyway.

Lu Lingqi: ...

The two walked side by side in silence. After a while, Lu Lingqi suddenly said: "Actually, I don't hate you very, very, very, particularly, very much. It's just that it was too sudden, and..."

After hearing what happened after she left yesterday, Lu Lingqi also knew that she had misunderstood Bai Tu. When she saw Bai Tu today, she felt a little uncomfortable and felt it would be better to explain.

"And I always feel that my future husband must be someone who can step on the colorful rays of the sun and take the rank of general among thousands of armies?" Bai Tu added jokingly.

"Bah! How can I be so superficial!" Lu Lingqi said and wanted to make fist gestures at Bai Tu, but suddenly she found that in the distance at the Lu Mansion... her father was actually waiting for her return at the door?
　Dongdong: The population data refers to the middle and late Eastern Han Dynasty, 50 to [-] years before the Yellow Turban Rebellion. No further data can be found. This book uses this data as a reference for "before the Yellow Turban Rebellion". The figures after the Yellow Turban Rebellion Dongdong lowered it based on "I think", it's just a setting, no in-depth discussion, no questioning~
