Sima Yi's Three Kingdoms Collection Collection

Chapter 378
Sun Zi, who was sitting next to him, was also secretly startled when he heard this, but he immediately figured out the far-reaching intention of Sima Yi's suggestion, and couldn't help admiring him from the bottom of his heart.Li Tao, Li Feng's son, married Cao Hui, the daughter of Empress Dowager Guo's beloved princess Qi Chang; Meng Kang was Guo Zhi's nephew.He and Liu Fang handed over the two privy positions of Zhongshuling and Zhongshujian to the Guo family, which will inevitably transfer the conflict to the Guo family members and push them to the cusp of the dispute between the court and the bureau.There is no doubt that their positions will inevitably attract Cao Shuang's faction to rob them openly and secretly.In this way, a tough battle will surely break out between Cao Shuang and Queen Mother Guo.If Cao Shuang didn't win, that's all. If he won, he would kill three thousand enemies and lose eight hundred!Then, I and Liu Fang will follow Sima Taifu and wait for the opportunity to move, and they will emerge suddenly, and they will surely make a comeback in the end and win a big victory!

Hanging on the front wall of the clean room is a huge silk picture of the Eight Diagrams, and the four corners of the picture are filled with densely packed lines and hexagrams.

Taishi ordered Guan Ren to look up at the pictures and hexagrams carefully, sometimes frowning in thought, sometimes shaking his head and laughing, sometimes muttering to himself, as if possessed by a demon, extremely obsessed.

He Yan, Deng Yang, Zhong Yu and others sat on the ground around them, holding their breath and waiting for him to finish reading before expressing their opinions.

Finally, there was only a whistling sound, Guan Ren seemed to have read all the hexagrams and hexagrams on the picture, stretched himself, and turned around slowly, his face was indifferent.

He Yan raised his face, and asked Guan Ren with a smile: "Guan Jun, after reading the annotations of the "Book of Changes" written by He in the hexagrams on the wall, do you have any wonderful insights? I hope you can give me your advice."

Guan Ren has always been used to speaking bluntly, so he said immediately: "He Shangshu discussed the principles of "Book of Changes" in detail. However, although the annotations of these hexagrams are wonderful, they are still like oil floating in water. It seems that words are better than reason. Those who are savvy and righteous should step into the sky, push yin and yang, explore the mystery, and look at the extreme darkness. The Tao is infinite, so why bother to talk about it in trifles?"

When He Yan heard this, the expression on his pale face froze.Deng Yang saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help scolding coldly: "You madman-you are not as good as "Yi" but close to ridicule, you are too conceited!"

Guan Ren rolled his eyes at him: "Deng Shangshu doesn't know something. Throughout the ages, those who are good at "Yi" will not be limited by the book "Yi", and those who are good at soldiers will not be good at discussing soldiers!"

Deng Yang was furious, and was about to refute, but He Yan pulled his sleeves to persuade him, and with a smile on his face, he asked Guan Ren: "What you said just now is reasonable, Mr. He has been taught. I have heard it for a long time. Guan Jun, you learned from Dr. Zhou Xuan, who is good at dream interpretation. He has always admired him very much. Today, he is honored to ask for advice. He had a dream recently. He dreamed that dozens of bluebottles were buzzing and gathering on his body. On the tip of the nose, they are scattered over and over again and then reunited, what is the sign of this?"

After hearing this, Guan Ren pondered for a while, his face straightened, and he cupped his hands and said, "Today I sincerely ask He Shangshu, and Guan must tell you with all his heart. In the past, Yuan and Kai Zhibi respected Hua and declared kindness and harmony; Duke Zhou Zhiyi becomes a king, sits and waits for the dawn, so it can flow light in Liuhe, ten thousand countries, and Xianning. This is the response of Taoism, which is not revealed by divination. Today, He Shangshu's position is heavy on mountains, like thunder and lightning, but there are few people with virtue and fear Those who are powerful are not the way to be cautious and seek blessings for themselves. Those with noses are also Gen, this mountain in the sky is "high but not dangerous, so it is expensive to keep it for a long time", but it has the stench of bluebottles and gathers it. , is really very ominous.

"As the saying goes, 'those who are in a high position are overthrown, those who are undervalued are dead'. He Shangshu, you must think about the number of losses and the period of prosperity and decline! Therefore, the mountain is called "modest" in the ground, and the thunder is called "strong" in the sky; "Momility" means that more will benefit the few, and "strong" will be inappropriate. If you don't harm yourself, you don't want to be big, and if you do wrong, you don't hurt defeat. I sincerely hope that He Shangshu will follow the words of King Wen's six lines, and think about the image of Ni's father. The righteousness, then the Sangong can be sent, and the bluebottle can be driven away.”

When Deng Yang heard it, he burst out laughing: "He Shangshu—he is just talking nonsense! This is a commonplace talk, and there is nothing new, so why listen to it?"

Guan Ren has long been used to strong winds and waves, still afraid of his ridicule?Immediately, he looked directly at Deng Yang and said, "What Deng Shangshu said is wrong--today's situation is actually 'the old man sees but does not live, and the frequent talker sees but does not talk about it.'"

Deng Yang originally wanted to invite him to come over to say a few good words for himself and He Yan, but today he saw that he was so aloof in front of him, and he couldn't help being furious: "You madman is so rude! What's wrong? Are you tired of Tai Shiling?"

After hearing his threatening words, Zhong Yu, who was sitting next to him, suddenly changed his face, stretched out his hand and pulled the corner of Guan Ren's robe, signaling him to apologize quickly.Guan Ren didn't pay any attention to it, and only looked at Deng Yang coldly, without any fear.

He Yan also didn't want to have a deadlock with the Taishi Department, so he hurried out and said: "Mr. Deng, Doctor Guan's words are so subtle and subtle, so don't laugh at them. Doctor Guan——"Knows how amazing it is." ', the ancients thought it difficult; it is difficult for people today to tell their sincerity. Now you will do this dilemma when you see me. If you ask me a big question, I hope that Dr. Guan will enlighten me. Today, the fortune of the country is prosperous, and the merits of General Cao are great, is there any unusual sign coming to the world?"

As soon as he said this, both Deng Yang and Zhong Yu fixed their eyes on Guan Ren, waiting for him to speak.

Guan Ren turned around four or five times on the spot with his hands behind his back, and suddenly he raised his voice and gave a long smile: "Why should He Shangshu's words be suspicious? The current situation in the world is the auspicious hexagram of the Nine Five Dragons Flying. My lord, let’s start the world’s best fortune’, from being a god, to be promoted, to be kingly, to return to one’s heart from far and near, and to be surrounded by the shadows of the four directions!”

"Good! Good! Good!" He Yan was overjoyed, and ordered the servants in the mansion, "Hurry up and prepare a box of gold cakes for Mr. Guan. This mere gift is not a respect, but I hope Mr. Guan will accept it with a smile!"

In fact, what Deng Yang had been waiting for was his beautiful words to whitewash Cao Shuang's political achievements. After hearing this, he immediately turned angry into joy, and his face showed joy: "Guan Jun's words are excellent, and we will definitely present them to General Cao Shuang." , General Cao will definitely reward you heavily."

Guan Ren was not too polite, he accepted a box of gold cakes from He Yan, thanked him and said goodbye, and left the He residence together with Zhong Yu.After walking a long way in the carriage, Zhong Yu said to Guan Ren with lingering fear: "Oh! Guan Jun——when you were talking to them in He Mansion just now, what you said was too straightforward. Are you afraid that you have deeply offended Deng Shangshu? Deng Shangshu is a person whose eyes are as small as a pinhole, and he will retaliate against you, Zhong is here, but secretly broke into a cold sweat for you!"

Guan Ren took out the wine gourd and took a sip of the spirits, then squinted at him: "Why is Guan talking to a dying person?"

"The dying person? Are you referring to He and Deng?" Zhong Yu was so frightened that his face was as white as paper, and he hurriedly lowered his voice.

"Master Zhong doesn't know. If you meet with the bad people, you can see their confusion and confusion; if you get close to the auspicious people, you can know the beauty of their energy. Look at Deng Yang, walking around, his muscles are not restrained, The pulse does not control the flesh, standing up and leaning, if there are no hands and feet, this is called "ghost impetuosity"; while He Yan's face and appearance are full of spirits, blood is not colorful, clear and smoked, and his appearance is haggard, this is called "ghost ghost". '. Both of them are not people with good fortune and longevity. I am afraid that within a year or two, there will be a catastrophe! Mr. Zhong, you can keep Guan Mou's words in your heart and never let them out, so as to see the future fulfillment That's it."

After hearing this, Zhong Yu turned pale with shock: "Doctor Guan's words are as sharp as a sword. Zhong was terrified when he heard this. Then, I would like to ask you the prophecy of 'nine five dragons fly, good fortune, good luck' And what is the auspicious sign of the master? Could it be possible that General Cao can really become the Ninth Five-Year Master in one leap?"

At this time, Guan Ren held the wine gourd and drank heavily, and said vaguely: "Master Zhong, you have asked too many questions today." It's a secret, even now Guan can't let it go..."

Babaolai Pawnshop is the largest pawnshop in Xifang, Luoyang.Sun Qian, dressed in casual clothes, entered the store, called a waiter, took out the crane-shaped gold hairpin and a handkerchief with floral script like quartz, handed them to him, and said, "Take these things with you. Give your shopkeeper an estimate, and ask him to come out and talk to me face to face."

When the shop waiter saw the two things he handed over, he was startled immediately, nodded and bowed hurriedly, led him into the back room and sat down, then ran into the backyard.

After a while, only the sound of footsteps "dud-duk" approaching in the back room.Sun Qian followed the sound, but saw an old man in his sixties with gray hair and a slightly stooped figure walking out slowly.Holding a gold hairpin and a handkerchief in one hand, and a woolen towel in the other, he held it up to his face from time to time and gently wiped his red and swollen eyes like walnuts, then went straight to the bench next to Sun Qian and sat down. .

"Guest officer, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. The old man suffered from this eye disease because he often stayed up late before, and his usual behavior is a bit indecent. Please don't take offense." The old man continued to wipe his eyes as if sand had been rubbed in. With tears streaming down his face, he said softly to Sun Qian, "Can you tell the old man the origin of the gold hairpin and handkerchief in detail?"

"A friend entrusted me to pawn this gold hairpin and handkerchief here." Sun Qian leaned over, looked him directly and replied, "She said, based on the texture of these two things, it will definitely make you the big shopkeeper of Babaolai." Come out to evaluate the transaction in person.”

The old man wiped his sick eyes with a woolen towel, and said in a deep voice, "I am the shopkeeper of Babaolai, they call me shopkeeper Yin. What do you have to say?" Just tell the old man!"

Sun Qian stared at the old man's eyes without moving: "Master Yin, do you know who is next?"

"Oh... Is this old man familiar with you, guest officer? I seem to know a little bit about it." Shopkeeper Yin put down the woolen towel in his hand, squinted at Sun Qian with his sickly red eyes, and said slowly, "Your Excellency It is Sun Qianjun, the servant and guard in General Cao's mansion. Today you changed your clothes early in the morning and came out from the gate of General Nanfang's mansion. You walked a stone's throw away, wandered in the alleys of Nanjiao for half an hour, and then put on your clothes again. After going out of the alley, I went to Zuiyue Tower in Xifang and drank for half an hour. I probably thought about the matter there, and finally walked into my shop to pawn these two things. Is it right?"

"You... how dare you spy on me?" Sun Qian turned pale with fright when he heard this.

"Treasurer Yin" leaned back slightly, closed his eyes slightly and looked at the roof: "Sun Qianjun, you are wrong. You and we are a family, why are we still watching you? We are protecting you seriously. !"

Sun Qian looked at shopkeeper Yin in surprise, but he didn't know where he said this.

Shopkeeper Yin picked up the handkerchief and put it in front of him, slowly looking at the cursive characters written by Shi Shi himself, tears welled up in his eyes: "It's really hard work for Yinger! You sent these messages... It is really rare! Alas, I, Sima Yin, was a adoptive father in vain, I am really sorry for you, Yinger..."
