Chapter 134

"Sir, there seems to be troops stationed on the other side, look..."

Xi Xi bent over and walked back to the boat cabin, half-wringing his fingers, with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.

They ran away to avoid disaster, but at this juncture they ran into an army who didn't know who they belonged to, good or evil, Xi Xi didn't want to lose courage in front of the teacher, he tried to stay calm, but his erratic eyes gave away a little bit of it.

"army?"

Zheng Xuan raised his hand halfway, as if he wanted to stop the itching in his throat, but Fang lowered his head, and couldn't restrain himself from coughing in a low voice.

"Mr. Kang Cheng."

Sitting beside Zheng Xuan was a middle-aged man with a white face and long beard, in a broad robe and thin shirt.

Although Xi Xi entered the room and interrupted the clear discussion between the two, the man was still immersed in the topic just now. He only came back to his senses when he heard Zheng Xuan's intermittent coughing, rolled up his sleeves, took out a bowl of soup, and served it to Zheng Xuan's table. .

"...It's Mr. Kang Cheng's old friend."

The man turned his head slightly, as if he had noticed some signs, and smiled awkwardly at Zheng Xuan.

There was some light in Zheng Xuan's cloudy eyes.

He studied and cured the classics, had thousands of disciples, and his reputation spread all over the world.

If you talk about the old man...

He can be regarded as acquainted with all over the world, but in today's place, there is only one person who can lead the army to Xuzhou and have an old relationship with him.

"Hasn't Zijiang been thinking about it all the time, and never judged all the heroes in the world? Today, Zijiang will be able to make up for a regret."

Zheng Xuan became much more energetic, his beard fluctuated up and down with the laughter, followed by short coughs.

Xu Shao put away his joking expression, and put on a straight face: "Mr. Kang Cheng seems to be very happy? This really whetted Shao's appetite."

"Shao also received a letter from an old friend, talking about this Shaofu's personality, but he has a gentle and generous temperament, not like a hero."

The old friend Xu Shao talked about was naturally Li Kui, who had fully confided the Yellow Turban plan to Cao Cao.

He worked as a master book under Cao Cao, and when he was free, he was the first to write to Xu Shao to inform him of his current situation.

Li Kui originally sent the letter to Xu Shao with the intention of exaggerating his own social status, and it was also to make up for the talk he mentioned when he first met the same kind.

After all, Zhong Ping didn't know the situation in his family, and by using the excuse of avoiding the worries of his friends, he hinted a little in his words that his parents were dead, and he could still make up an image of emphasizing love and righteousness.

Therefore, in the letter, Li Kui's evaluation of Zhongping was still objective, but he also added a few words of guidance.

"Yourou?"

Zheng Xuan waved his hand and said seriously: "The most stubborn person in the world is Boheng."

"Zijiang, that child has a stubborn air... If I say that Boheng always underestimates himself, few people will believe me."

"Remember what I said to you?"

Xu Shao recalled briefly: "... Datong?"

His face was a bit bitter: "It's just an illusion created by the sages. Unless it was the age of Yao and Shun, how could we see such a scene?"

"That child really believes it." Zheng Xuan's beard trembled slightly, and his eyes were far away, as if he was looking at something far away.

"The son..."

"Boheng lacks self-confidence in himself, but as long as he brings up topics such as the property of the people and the journey of the road, there is only firmness in his eyes."

"Sometimes I feel that maybe Boheng really saw the day when the sage's vision was realized."

As Zheng Xuan said, he also found it funny: "... How can there be such a thing in the world."

Xu Shao was thoughtful: "Shao really can't wait to meet the same kind of Shaofu."

"Are the gentlemen at the ferry?" The boatman's voice passed through the curtain of the boat, "The boat is about to stop."

"Mr. Kang Cheng."

As soon as the boat curtain moved, another man dressed as a Confucian came in, followed by this young man with curly hair, his face was like a crown jade, and he was handsome and handsome. The two saluted Zheng Xuan.

"What do you think sir, do you want to avoid the army and stop at another ferry?"

Zhuge Xuan respected Zheng Xuan very much. Zheng Xuan was also among the group of people who got the news in advance when Cao Cao entered Xuzhou. He lived in Nanshan and didn't know the world affairs. The disaster of Xuzhou would not affect him no matter what.

But he can protect himself, but he has to think about his students.

Under the front of the soldiers, would those soldiers ask each person's identity before killing them?
Although Tao Qian couldn't take care of himself, he did his best to resettle Zheng Xuan. He knew that many Xuzhou gentry escaped disaster and collapsed, and the only ones he could rely on were the Chen family and his son.

However, what Tao Qian didn't expect was that when Cao Cao entered Xuzhou from Mount Tai, Chen Deng and his son chose to stay in Xuzhou when they faced Cao Cao's army, and did not abandon their officials and leave.

While he was moved, he had no time to deal with Zheng Xuan and the others. Fortunately, Xu Shao had been to Langya County and had acquaintance with the Zhuge family.

Therefore, after he learned that Zhuge Xuan had the intention of leaving Langya County to avoid disaster, he wrote in advance, asking if he could assist Zheng Xuan and his disciples to leave Xuzhou.

Even though Zheng Xuan was a famous Confucianist in the world, it still cannot change the fact that he is an old man, not to mention that he has compiled and annotated countless books over the years, even if he leaves Xuzhou, it is absolutely impossible for him to abandon those painstaking efforts.

Bringing Zheng Xuan along is actually a huge burden for a fleeing family.

But if it is not beneficial at all, it is not entirely true.

Not to mention the fame and contacts that escorting Zheng Xuan and his disciples out of Xuzhou would bring, but simply saying that Mr. Kang Cheng and various classics are in his convoy can also avoid many unnecessary entanglements and difficulties.

Zhuge Xuan is a smart man, he knows that helping Zheng Xuan now is the best choice for him.

He accepted Xu Shao's request, although it was out of etiquette, but he was also the head of the family.

He couldn't help but think about his family.

"It's enough to stop the boat at the ferry. The leader of the army is an old man, so Yinyi doesn't have to worry."

As Zheng Xuan said, he summoned the young man behind Zhuge Xuan.

"Have you seen Zini?"

The young man's eyes are piercing. Although he is young, he has already cultivated a demeanor with which he can move freely.

"Brother Zi Ni is at the bow of the boat, arguing with senior brother Ji Gui about 'righteousness'."

"Oh?"

Zheng Xuan became interested: "Kong Ming is good at eloquence, so he never participated in it?"

"Liang is not willing to be a debater."

"The two senior brothers either think that in the emperor's edict, it is clear that Tao Shijun is rebellious, so Cao Gong is righteous; or they think that Shijun has no collusion with the Yellow Turban, and it is righteous to kill the chief evil, and it is a crime to slaughter the people."

"Liang thought that conquerors should be conquered from above. The Son of Heaven issued an edict to 'conquer Xuzhou', and 'felling' can be justified, but massacres are not, which is not the way."

"The two senior brothers debated 'righteousness'...Liang felt that even if he argued the truth, it would not be able to change the facts, so why bother talking?"

"Isn't this a sophistry? You kid will change things."

Zheng Xuan stroked his beard and laughed.

"Gentlemen, we've arrived at the ferry!"
