Agents of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 25 Wang Lei vs Du Ji

The corner of Mr. Du's mouth curled into a smile, and his eyes were full of anticipation.

He was very interested in Wang Lei's changes after he was imprisoned. This kid became eloquent, and he also knew Xun Chen from the Xun family in Yingchuan, and even knew Jingzhao Du Ji in front of him. Mr. Du was pleasantly surprised And strange.Now that Wang Lei is going to debate with Du Ji, it is another great opportunity to get to know Wang Lei, why doesn't he like it?

Guo Yu, Queen Guo and the old lady noticed that something was wrong, and their eyes were anxious.

He wanted to stop it, but was stopped by Mr. Du with his eyes.

How can I miss this great opportunity?

Du Ji looked solemn, and sat opposite Wang Lei across the bonfire.He pondered for a while, and said slowly: ""Mencius" said, "If you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are rich, you will be good to the world." The common people have benefited. Today, there is no way, the government is chaotic, and the Central Plains is in endless wars, but I am from a poor family. It is good to be able to protect myself in troubled times. According to the words of the sages, I took my mother to take refuge in Liaodong, which is the most correct How could it be a coward's choice? Could it be that the magistrate Wang thought that the sage Mencius was a coward, a cowardly person?"

A few words speak loudly.

Mr. Du stroked his long beard under his jaw and nodded slightly.

As expected of a person who has read a lot of poetry and books, he quotes scriptures and classics as soon as he speaks, occupying the commanding heights of morality.

This made the old man look forward to Wang Lei's performance even more.

Wang Lei chuckled twice, with a calm demeanor, and said calmly: ""Mencius" said that 'if you are poor, you will be good for yourself, and if you are rich, you will be good for the world'. It means that if you completely believe in books, it is better to have no books. Brother Bohou chooses to believe in Mencius, in my opinion, this is contrary to the essence of the sage Mencius."

"The sages dared to admit it, but brother Bohou didn't dare to admit it?"

"I have heard that 'every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world.' This world belongs to the world, and everyone in the world has the responsibility to defend the interests of the great man. The decline of the great man, and the power of the traitor in the court, is the time for the hero to rise up, and it is time to do everything possible. All you can do is turn the tide. Brother Bohou is talented, and it is time to rise up and contribute to the country."

Wang Lei's words became sharper, and he said loudly: "Anyone who still has blood, and whose blood is not cold, will stand up at this critical moment. How can he be alone? Isn't avoiding what cowards do?"

Mr. Du's eyes lit up, this kid really surprised people!

Du Ji's complexion changed slightly, feeling the heavy pressure.

The person in front of him cannot be judged by his appearance, this is a difficult person.Du Ji took a deep breath to calm himself down, chuckled a few times, and counterattacked: "Mencius said, 'A gentleman should not stand under a wall', to the effect that he should stay away from dangerous places and not let himself fall into danger. There are many wars in the Central Plains, and I took my mother to escape the danger, this is a reasonable thing, how can I be cowardly."

Wang Lei grinned, thinking to himself, Du Ji's words fell into a disadvantage when he opened his mouth.

The first direct confrontation affected Du Ji!

Wang Lei would not have the slightest thought of giving in, and said proudly: "Just now I said that 'it is better to have no books than to believe in books'. Let's put this conclusion aside for now, lest Brother Bohou say that I am always pestered by one thing. , to prevent Brother Bohou from citing scriptures. I once heard an old farmer say, "Family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, and everything concerned." An old farmer in the field has such insight, let alone Du Bohou who is outstanding in learning? However, Du Bohou excused himself by saying 'a gentleman should not stand under a wall', which greatly disappointed me."

He let out a long sigh, as if he was really disappointed in Du Ji.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Wang Lei oppressed with great momentum.

If it is really a matter of reason, no matter how difficult it is for others to avoid it, this is a normal thing, Wang Lei obviously has no reason to refute Du Ji.But Wang Lei put Du Ji in a position of outstanding talent, and then oppressed him with the general situation of the country, Du Ji was difficult to deal with.

National affairs are the commanding heights occupied by Wang Lei.

Du Ji is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he did not admit defeat. He continued: "The Book of Songs says, "Father begets me, mother bows to me, licks me, breeds me, grows me, cares for me, and enters and exits me." The virtue of wanting to repay, Haotian Wangji'. The general idea is that my parents gave birth to me, raised me, raised me, and cared for me. I want to repay it well, but the kindness of my parents is like the sky, great and infinite, how can I repay it all? The ancients were so filial, how can I, as a son, not repay my mother's kindness."

Du Ji looked at the old lady seriously, and said sincerely: "If you stay in the Central Plains, your mother will be in more danger. I want to fulfill my filial piety. Is there something wrong with that?"

He snorted coldly, his eyes were sharp, and he waited for Wang Lei's reply.

"Hahaha……"

Wang Lei laughed loudly and shook his head slightly.

Du Ji's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately asked, "Why is County Magistrate Wang laughing?"

Wang Lei stopped laughing, shook his head and said, "What I'm laughing at is that Du Bohou is doing the little way of filial piety, but he has forgotten the way of great filial piety. Don't worry, don't worry, just listen to me one by one."

Mr. Du is funny, but this kid has learned how to play tricks.

Du Ji frowned, feeling heavy.

But Wang Lei stood up from where he was, waved his real arm, and said in a loud voice: "First, you are doing a little filial piety, thinking that you will take care of your mother's safety, and want the old lady to take care of her for the rest of her life, but you forgot that the old lady has already passed away. Age. Don’t you hear that fallen leaves return to their roots? You took the old lady to Liaodong, and you couldn’t come back for ten or eight years. At that time, the old lady died in another country, how can you bear it?”

"Second, the way of small filial piety is to honor parents and elders; the way of great filial piety is to honor the king and the country. You take the old lady to go to a foreign country and live in a different place, regardless of whether the king lives or dies, and the country and the country. Is this what a courtier should do? ?”

Wang Lei's words were harsh and aggressive.

Du Bohou swayed, his face turned pale.

He looked at Wang Lei with astonishment in his eyes.

Naturally, Wang Lei would not let go of the opportunity to persuade the other party, and continued: "The government is weak, and the Central Plains is in chaos. At this time, people of my generation should fight hard, ride the wind and waves, and do our best for ourselves, for our families, and for our country. Brother Bohou took the old lady to another country, can the old lady be willing? Can the old lady get used to the loneliness of living in a different place?"

"For the sake of the old lady, brother Bohou should also stay."

"At the same time, a talented person should also stay at this critical moment."

"Be true to yourself!"

"Be filial to your mother!"

"Loyal to the King!"

"These three things are the path I think Brother Bohou should take."

Wang Lei turned around, faced Du Ji, cupped his hands and saluted, and said in an apologetic voice: "Just now, Wang Lei was reckless and offended Brother Bohou, please forgive me."

The corner of Du Ji's mouth twitched, and Wang Lei had no words to refute.

"It's like a rise and fall of the world, everyone is responsible, a family matter, state affairs, world affairs, and everything is concerned, a person who is sincere to oneself, filial to his mother, and loyal to the king. Listening to the king's words, he should be able to understand life. If you have a glass of wine , get drunk, what more can I ask for!"

A free and resonant voice came, and a young man strode in.

ps: Who is coming?Guess what, the great man is on the stage.
