The Pension Plan Expands from the Three Kingdoms to the Heavens

Chapter 113: Guoyuan Becomes an Official Official!

Xu You originally just wanted to win over Lou Ban, the heir to the previous Shanyu, and then use this fool as a pawn to weaken Taton!

It's better now, I'm in a dilemma!After getting Tatton's answer and promise, he also rode back to the camp arranged by Tatton. He was still cursing Lou Ban secretly in his heart, "Humph, he is worthy of a Hulu!"

At this moment, in an academy west of Xiangping City, the Liaodong Administrative Office, which is nearly a thousand miles away from the scene, Zhuge Liang is quietly watching the sunset in the west, but he is thinking about the grassland battlefield thousands of miles away!
After spending two years in Liaodong, Zhuge Liang has changed a lot. His height has increased at least twice, and his physique has become much stronger!

A light beard has also begun to grow under the chin, and the face that has grown out is as handsome as a crown jade. The whole person looks like a jade tree standing in the wind, with a majestic appearance!

correct!He is 16 years old this year. Two months ago, under the auspices of his teacher Zheng Xuan, he was officially crowned!Became an adult in the Han Dynasty!
At this moment, he was wearing a blue robe and holding a pure white feather fan with a Tai Chi pattern on the middle handle. The whole person looked ethereal.

This feather fan was a treasure given to him by Gongsun Lu during his coronation ceremony. He has always liked this gift. No matter the weather is hot or cold, he likes to fan himself whenever he has nothing to do.

In Gongsun Lu’s words, he is very classy!
"Kong Ming, the teacher is calling you!"

Zhuge Liang looked back and saw a very tall, beardless young man wearing black Confucian uniform standing behind him. He quickly saluted: "Senior Brother Zini!"

This young man is not as handsome as Zhuge Liang, and his face looks a bit old, but his temperament makes people feel very mature and reliable!
Looking at the feather fan in Zhuge Liang's hand, a black line appeared on the young man's face. Although he knew that his junior brother liked this exquisite goose feather fan very much and liked to use it to fan him when he had nothing to do, but it was early spring and the weather It was so cold that every time he saw him fanning himself with a fan, he felt that his junior brother was so weird!

The two soon walked into a school room together.Under the light of the whale oil candle in the school room,

An old man with gray hair and a boyish face is copying on a bamboo slip. He is copying the above content onto a paper book!After seeing his two most proud disciples arrive.

The old man put down the brush in his hand and said to the two of them with a smile: "This Gongsun Lu, I asked him to spread the paper all over the world, but he refused! I asked him to give me more paper, but this kid is still so stingy. Alas, he obviously has You can only help the world, but you are so stingy! I don’t know if I can restore all these pre-Qin classics in my lifetime!"

The classics in front of the old man were all mined from Xu Fu's relics that were previously excavated by the Navy's Japanese island. Most of them were damaged due to the passage of time, and many of the writings were corroded and blurred!
For a literary master who loves books, Mr. Zheng Xuan took the initiative to repair and compile these bamboo slips of pre-Qin books after learning about them!
"The teacher is joking. After all, there are so many places in Liaodong that use paper. My lord can provide so much paper to the academy for free. He is the most generous person Yuan has ever seen! Not to mention such a valuable weapon, how can he give it to others so easily? !”

The young man sitting next to Zhuge Liang saluted Zheng Xuan and spoke slowly.

Hearing the word "Lord" uttered by the young man, Zheng Xuan's thick black and white eyebrows raised slightly!
"It seems that Zini has decided to become an official. Knowing that the war in Liaodong is pending, is Zini's decision too hasty at this time?"

"Yuan Zixin has an eye that can distinguish between beautiful jade and stubborn stones. My lord started from a defeated army and only spent a few years working hard to manage it. He turned a barren land into such a prosperous place that all the princes in the world can't compare to him. At this moment, my lord can't do anything. The dragon is hiding in the abyss, and sooner or later it will roar to the sky and dominate the world!" The young man stood up with his head held high and answered his teacher word by word. Obviously, he had full confidence in Gongsun Lu!
Zheng Xuan nodded with a smile, as if he was happy that his apprentice had such foresight, "Seeing a spot can reveal the whole leopard, and hearing the sound of bamboo can gain elegance, which is very good!"

After getting his teacher's approval, the young man breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that even the well-informed teacher is optimistic about the lord chosen by Guoyuan!
Yes!The name of this mature young man is Guoyuan, and he came to Liaodong with Zheng Xuan back then!
After arriving here, he immediately became a supporter of Gongsun Road's policy, whether it was recruiting refugees, implementing farmland, and using work as relief to build rivers, waterways, various post stations, bridges, highways and a series of national infrastructure. .

Obviously, like Gongsun Lu, he is also a complete infrastructure madman, vigorously carrying out the country's infrastructure construction and improving people's livelihood!Improve state power’s control over local areas!

This is also his policy philosophy!
Historically, he and Guan Ning of Bing Yuan were very good friends. They once lived in seclusion in Liaodong with them. Later, they were conquered by Cao Cao and became Sikong Cong. Guoyuan was also loyal to his duties and often spoke harshly when discussing issues at court meetings. Color, dare to speak, integrity and selflessness.

Cao Cao implemented the farming system and put Guoyuan in charge of handling farming affairs.Guoyuan used his managerial skills to balance policy interests in many aspects, allocate land for farming to the people, and arrange for officials to follow up according to the proportion of the people. He also listed various implementation measures for farming, and in just five years, the country's warehouses were built. With plenty of food, people can live and work in peace and contentment.

Later, Guoyuan was appointed as the imperial servant and ranked as the ninth minister!
Now Guoyuan is still a passionate young man, and he has not yet chosen to live in seclusion in frustration because of the country's chaos!

Guoyuan slightly bowed his hands and said goodbye to his teacher Zheng Xuan.

Just leave the school directly, become a disciple, and leave the school to serve as an official!

Zheng Xuan looked at Guoyuan's unrivaled back with clear and thoughtful eyes!Nod slightly!Knowing and doing it, Mo Ruoyuan!

The old man turned to look at Zhuge Liang again. In fact, he didn't care too much about this student from the beginning. If Gongsun Lu hadn't recommended him to him, he would have given up the idea of ​​accepting a disciple!

But after he officially accepted him as his disciple, he discovered that this young man Zhuge Liang was diligent, quick to learn, and very talented!He is the best student I have ever encountered!

Like a sponge, he eagerly absorbed the knowledge and insights he imparted, and at the same time expressed his own opinions. This alone was considered a level of self-cultivation among the Confucian scholars Zheng Xuan knew!

Most people can only achieve this when they are no longer confused, so he began to teach him more carefully.

Suddenly one day, he discovered that the young man named Gongsun Lu who attracted him to Liaodong actually had correspondence with Zhuge Liang, and he seemed to be playing the role of a teacher between the lines to answer Zhuge Liang's doubts and instill his own thoughts in him!

At first, he didn't pay much attention to it. Young people don't have a few close friends, so when they write letters, they just write letters, just a few pen pals!

When I was studying under Mr. Ma Rong when I was young, I often exchanged letters with my friends. But when I was teaching Zhuge Liang, I found that this young man's understanding of everything and his interpretation of the sages' classics were unique. , and very forward-looking!
To use a modern term, Zhuge Liang’s ideological logic is very postmodernist!
Strange thoughts and concepts that he has never encountered before are beyond Zheng Xuan's imagination!
He finally couldn't help but ask Zhuge Liang where these ideas that spanned the ages came from?

Zhuge Liang was also very direct. He took out all the letterheads he and Gongsun Lu had and said to Zheng Xuan, "If one day Zheng Xuan wants to read the letters he exchanged with you, just show it to him directly!"

These are Gongsun Lu’s original words!In this way, the collision of ideas between the greatest thinker and writer of the Han Dynasty and a modern soul of the 21st century began through Zhuge Liang and through letters!
Zhuge Liang looked at the communication and argument between the two people in the letters, as if he saw the collision of ideas between the two philosophers in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which left an indelible impression on the young man's three views that had not yet been formed. Obliterating effects!
