Chapter 96
Jianning three years, October

Chen Guojing sees Huanglong.

Sikong Zhou Jing died.

Zhou Jing, style name Zhongxiang, was born in Shu County, Lujiang County, Yangzhou. He was the grandson of Zhou Rong, the prefect of Shanyang, and the son of Zhou Xing, Shang Shulang. Later, he sat down with the old officials of Liang and Ji, and was exempted from officials and imprisoned. Later, he was recruited into the court in the name of a virtuous person, and moved to be a master, minister, and Sikong. He once played with Yang Bing to exempt more than [-] corrupt officials.

He was granted the posthumous title of Marquis of Anyang Township.

The eldest son, Chong, succeeded his father as Marquis of Anyang Township.

The son Zhou Yi received the most attention from the emperor, not because of his talent, but because he will have a son named Yu Yu.

At the end of October, when Yangqiu set off from the East China Sea to Luoyang angrily, a mighty group of people drove towards Anding and Linjing. , There are generous gifts on the frame, so it is natural that just approaching Anding, it was valued by several thieves on the way, and they came to attack in the middle of the night.

It's just that they died extremely tragically.

And before they died, they didn't understand why three or four Northern troops would personally escort them when they drove in three or four.

When the carriage drove into Linjing, the county magistrate and local officials greeted them in person. A young man got off his horse and met with these officials one by one. He was not a little arrogant because of his low official rank. The young man bowed down and said: " In Xia Lu Zhi, he served as the captain of the Beijun Shesheng, and I have seen you!" Those officials were a little surprised, the Beijun captain?Even sent as an angel, how much this king talisman is loved by His Majesty!

Tired from the journey, Lu Zhi also rested here for a day.

The next day, they led the crowd to Wang Fu's residence. They stopped the carriages at the gate of the simple courtyard. Lu Zhi straightened his clothes and walked solemnly inside. He saw Wang Fu feeding chickens in the courtyard. , squatting on the ground, full of interest, seeing Lu Zhi walking in, Wang Fu was taken aback, got up, and Lu Zhi bowed, "Lu Zhi, Lieutenant of the Northern Army Shesheng, I have seen Wang Jun!"

Captain of the North Army? ?Even if the Son of Heaven hates my book, he shouldn't have sent the captain of the Northern Army to arrest him! !
But seeing that this person was so respectful to him, Wang Fu couldn't be sure, he didn't think the emperor could understand the general idea of ​​his book, so he arranged the order of the emperor without authorization, and criticized the current family, officials, and government, in short, He discussed everything that was not allowed in the Han law, and he didn't just discuss it in his stomach, he wrote 36 policies directly and handed it to the emperor.

Wang Fu sighed in his heart: Wang Qianfu, Wang Qianfu, I can't bear it anymore, so I handed over the book, it's all over now, the northern army came to a battalion to arrest you!

Lu Zhi lowered his head and waited for a while, but he didn't wait for Wang Fu to return the gift. He didn't take it seriously. If this person can be valued by the emperor, he must be a sage in the world. It is normal for a sage to be a little arrogant. He reluctantly moved out another identity and said: "I am a disciple of Manan County." As a great Confucian, Ma Rong had almost become the most famous Confucianist in scriptures at that time.

Even He Xiu admired him, saying that his knowledge was far inferior to that of Manan County.

In front of the scholars, as long as he puts forward his identity, he will be invincible!

Wang Fu stayed for a moment, nodded, and said, "En."

Lu Zhi was dumbfounded, and after a while, he said: "The emperor read through Wang Jungao's theory day and night, and he was very happy. I specially dispatched him as an angel to conquer the king!" Wang Fu didn't appreciate Ma Rong. If you have knowledge in vain but cannot change the world, you will be called a great Confucianism in vain!

Because of these words, he was not less beaten by Ma Rong's supporters in this land of Kansai.

What's funny is that Ma Rong praised him very much, and often said that I have three friends, among them, Wang Jun is the youngest and the most talented. His three friends are Zhang Heng, He Xiu, and Wang Fu, who can be ranked with these people , Wang Fu was deeply ashamed.

But when he heard him say that the Son of Heaven appreciates his exposition, Wang Fu couldn't believe it. He was from a bad background, but he was a concubine in his family, and he didn't have any close friends. Because he often said shocking words, he didn't want to associate with fame. , so he cannot be recommended. When he was young, he traveled around to study and wanted to let others accept his knowledge, but he was often kicked out because of his sharp words.

He thought about many possibilities. Perhaps the emperor would be furious and order him to be arrested. He also thought that the emperor would be contemptuous and no longer disturbing. Even if the captain of the Northern Army appeared in front of him so respectfully today, he still thought that The emperor sent a Northern Army battalion to arrest him. He was still thinking why the Emperor was so tyrannical. He is an old Confucian, and a few pawns are enough. Why did he send the Northern Army? ? ?

However, he never expected that the emperor would appreciate him.

The emperor appreciates himself, there are still people in this world who know my talent, Wang Qianfu!
Wang Fu's eyes were foggy, and he wiped them off quickly, nodded excitedly, and asked with a smile, "What reward will the Son of Heaven have?"

Lu Zhi: "."

Wang Fu was sitting on the carriage, and Lu Zhi on the side looked at him with weird eyes all the time, but Wang Fu didn't know that Lu Zhi had already begun to suspect that the emperor's reputation for knowing people and making good use of it.

Wang Fu also knew that Lu Zhi was puzzled by him, but he didn't care. He needed to know the emperor's attitude. From the emperor's reward, he could learn a lot of things. In order to flaunt his deep love for talented people, he deliberately confiscated himself. The rewards must be all gold and jade, but the emperor also rewarded a lot of property.

However, among the generous rewards, there are also some ancient books hidden in the palace, many of which are similar to those described by Wang Fu, please Wang Fu to read. Seeing this, Wang Fu was satisfied with how much he valued Wang Fu. His Majesty really valued him most.

It seems that what you said is true, to be able to discover your own talent, you are worthy of being a sage!
He happily held the emperor's book, read it over and over again, and laughed involuntarily. Lu Zhi silently walked a few steps away from him. Wang Fu shook his head and sighed: If he had known that he was a sage Why should I wait until today, as early as Emperor Xiaoheng's reign, I should have handed over this book to the emperor!
After driving for a few days, Wang Fu arrived at Luoyang and was greeted by the guards who had been waiting for a long time. He entered Weiyang Palace and made jade slips for him at the gate of the palace. This was the certificate for entering and leaving the palace. Under the leadership of the door, he was taken to the Hall of Houde. Before Wang Fu arrived, he saw the emperor walking out of the palace in a hurry. !
"I met the king! It's like the ancestor met Zhang Liang!"

Wang Fu was very moved, even though he knew in his heart that the Son of Heaven acted like this, more deliberately, to express his respect for himself, but he was still very moved in his heart. For so many years, no one has ever valued himself so much, that is Ma Rong The same is true, comparing yourself with He Xiu and Zhang Heng, hmph, they are also worthy?
