'What do you know! ’ The old man shouted loudly: ‘Stand down! '

The young man pouted, but still couldn't get the courage to resist, so he lowered his head and stopped talking.Grain-grain-net-first-post www>

'My lord, what do you think?If there is no objection, I will take the people away. '

'Old sir, wait a minute. Guan Ping smiled slightly, he had an idea in his mind, and said slowly: "The boy was just studying Chunqiu, but he remembered such a passage in it." '

When the old man saw that the other party brought out "Spring and Autumn", he didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly listened quietly, while the grandson next to him, when he heard the word "Spring and Autumn", his eyes flashed, and he glanced at Guan Ping meaningfully. Also listen attentively. [

’ In the spring and Autumn period, Zheng Guozi was born with a serious illness and couldn’t raise himself for a long time, so he called his uncle to the bedside and told him: I die, and you will succeed me. To govern the people, the sage governs with water, and ordinary people govern with water. Fire is governed; water is weak and weak, so the people will despise it and play with it, because many people will die in the water. You will be afraid when you see it, so few people die in the fire. This is the way ordinary people should use in governing; Taishu, although you are virtuous, you are not as good as those ancient masters, and you are still not up to the rule of governing the people with water. To the point, don't do it. '

When Guan Ping said this, he paused for a while, seeing that the old man was thoughtful, but did not speak, while the young man next to him was seriously emitting a dim light, staring at Guan Ping.

Glancing at it, Guan Ping continued: "A few months later, Zichan died of illness. As expected, Zheng Guo was ruled by Taishu. He was kind-hearted and refused to use strict laws to govern the country, so he forgot Zichan's advice." However, unexpectedly, soon after, the bandits in Zheng State became more and more prosperous, and they all gathered in the lakes and swamps. Taishu regretted it very much, so he sent troops to wipe out the bandits with fierce fire. This is how the country got back on track.When Confucius edited the Spring and Autumn Annals, he also sighed deeply: neither urgent nor slow, neither rigid nor soft, and the most harmonious!Old man, although your grandson is supported by an old mother, I let him go and used water to deal with him. The boy is not as good as that uncle. In case, how dare he try to match the saint's water treatment? human level. '

After listening quietly, the old man didn't have the courage to refute Guan Ping's remarks from "Spring and Autumn". He pondered for a while, then looked at the grandson next to him, sighed helplessly, and said: "If you are good at governing the age, you will be able to deal with it fairly. If you are old, you won't be an eyesore here." 'After that, he walked away tremblingly.

Guan Ping didn't expect that reading a few spring and autumn sentences indiscriminately and using them to bluff people would have such an effect.

Could this be regarded as the Spring and Autumn Judgment? Guan Ping was very happy, this is the qualification of great Confucians such as Zheng Xuan and Ma Rong.

Fortunately, Guan Ping also has self-knowledge, knowing that he can fool some knowledgeable old scholars in this mountain and wild place, and when he meets those masters, he can tell himself to the ground with just a few words.

Guan Ping put away his complacency, walked towards the horse thief, and said: "If you have a grandmother in your family, you just need to hand over all the things you stole before, and confess your accomplices, swear never to do it again, and then farm for the villagers for free for half a year." , I won’t punish you anymore, how about it? '

'Thank you, my lord. The horse thief didn't blame himself, he was overjoyed, and quickly kowtowed in agreement.

Guan Ping saw that the matter was dealt with, so he didn't stay any longer, and was about to turn around and enter the house, when he heard a voice from behind: "My lord, please stay." '

Guan Ping turned his head in doubt, and saw the young man who was supporting the old patriarch earlier, calling himself.

'Brother, what's the matter? '

Dong Yun, whose name is Xiuzhao, wants to discuss the meaning of Spring and Autumn with your lord. '

Dong Yun... Guan Ping suddenly remembered that Fei Yi had told him that this person was his childhood friend.These two were also one of the four sages of the Shu Han Dynasty. They were upright and upright. After the death of Zhuge Wuhou, they took charge of the power of the Shu Kingdom. A virtuous and admonishing minister.

"Brother Xiuzhao, my younger brother has just studied in the Spring and Autumn Period, and I have a little bit of superficiality. It is really fortunate to be able to get advice from Brother Xiuzhao. Brother Xian, let's move on." '

Dong Yun was promoted by Guan Ping, and he was not well-known, but he felt a little uncomfortable, slightly embarrassed, and said: "My lord, you are welcome." '

'Don't call me your lord anymore, little brother Guan Ping, brother Xian just call me Dingguo. '

Your Excellency is Guan Dingguo, the prefect of Jiangxia who killed Huang Zu, stopped Zhou Yu, and wiped out the water bandits. Dong Yun was a little surprised. He expected that the other party's rank was not low, but he didn't expect to be such a famous person.

What surprised him even more was that Guan Ping's name was mostly martial arts, but no one mentioned his literary name. [

'General Guan is really good at both civil and military affairs. Dong Yun sighed.

Ping Yi has heard about Brother Xian's name for a long time, and seeing you today, I must have a good discussion with Brother Xian. '

'It's a great honor to be appreciated by the general. '
