Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 771
Since Jiang Gan initiated the discussion, he has been hiding behind the scenes, allowing all parties to blame each other, and the debate for more than ten days has been very heated but without any results.It cannot be said that there is no effect. Controversies have arisen about the unanimously advertised model, and the supporters have suddenly become silent, and politicians have fallen into deeper thinking.

For this matter, Jiang Gan made a special trip to Jinbei to ask Zhou Cang for advice.

"Hehe, isn't this very good." Zhou Cang said with a smile. "There is no right or wrong in this, but it is just for everyone to discuss more. Humility and comity are virtues, but virtues are not used to show off to others, but everyone's conscience. As for someone who expands this small problem and interprets it too much, then It’s up to them to do it, it’s always good to think more.”

What Zhou Cang said was easy, but it was never that simple to let Li say it. Jiang Gan thought that this might be a further discussion on etiquette, how could he let it go easily, and asked tentatively: "What does the Duke think, what should I do if I am the Duke?" distribute?"

Zhou Cang sighed: "When I was young, my family was poor, and sometimes I could hunt a little wild game. My father was not in good health but always gave me good meat. This is the love of licking the calf. Therefore, it is love for family and relatives. This is love for love. There is no right or wrong, emotion is greater than reason, and it is difficult for an honest official to decide on family affairs. Governing the country depends on the law, which does not favor personal interests. Love and law are inseparable from virtue and reason, and the profoundness of it is difficult to understand for thousands of years. As for how to distribute, I probably want to learn from Kong Rong, but I couldn't do it when I was four years old."

Jiang Gan laughed and said: "I know the Duke doesn't like to eat pears, will he learn from Kong Rong even if this reason is removed?"

"You know this too? What will Ziyi do? Not at home, but at the Government Affairs Council. How do you divide the ministers?"

"This?" Jiang Gan hesitated for a moment, then smiled wryly. "I'm afraid that's the only way to go. Otherwise, wouldn't I offend the ministers?"

"Then let me ask you again, what would happen if you put the pears on a plate and let everyone take them?"

"If Mr. Xun doesn't take it, no one else will dare to take it first."

"What if there is only one pear left on the plate?"

"No one will take a rotten pear..." Jiang Gan's face changed, and he bowed his hands solemnly and said: "Jiang Gan has been taught."

Ruzi can be taught, Zhou Cang nodded in relief. "The Department of Mission and Education has a lot to do with it, and there is a long way to go."

Let the pear dispute end without a problem, but it has another consequence.Wang Can, Minister of the Honglu Department, was not taken seriously because his own views were not taken seriously, and the pear dispute shook him a little bit to his belief that he had always insisted on. He was depressed and died of illness soon at the age of 54.Wang Can and Wang Zhongxuan failed to reconcile Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang when they were envoys to Jizhou. Nearly 23 poems were written, but at the end of his life, he sighed that they were useless and burned them. His family only snatched [-] poems and proses.

The emperor Liu Xie personally paid homage and did a wonderful thing. "Wang Zhongxuan likes to listen to donkey braying the most on weekdays. Everyone learns donkey braying once and sees him off!" So there was a lot of donkey braying at Wang Can's funeral.

Pei Yuanshao, who was far away in Wu County, laughed when he heard about it: "There are two donkeys in my house, and their barks are extremely unpleasant..."

Zhou Xin smiled: "My father once wrote that the donkeys in Guizhou are poor, and the braying of donkeys has deterred tigers."

"I heard that elder brother has ordered your third younger brother to inspect the states. What are your plans at the end of the year?" Pei Yuanshao cared for Zhou Xin very much. According to the usual practice, Zhou Xin is full and Zhou Cang is out, so Zhou Xin should be transferred back to prison. country.

"The officials in the prefectures and counties of Jiangnan Road are in place, and they are basically stable. At the beginning, I proposed not to use troops for three years. What does uncle think of the letter to lead the troops out?"

"Wow!" Pei Yuanshao patted his thigh.Zhou Xin's experience in politics can be described as rich. What is lacking is that he has no experience in the army and lacks sufficient understanding with the generals in the army. "I would like to write a letter to recommend you as a general!"

Zhou Xin shook his head: "Don't bother uncle. I can write the book alone."

"Forget it, but I still need to prepare early. I'm old, let Qu Feng first practice with you, and I can give you some pointers on the formation of troops and military defense. From now on, you can spare a day every few days to come to our army Come with me to train men and horses and get familiar with the barracks. In addition, you can choose the one you like in the army to serve as your subordinate." Pei Yuanshao wanted to recruit a group of confidants to Zhou Xin.

"That's exactly what I mean. At that time, my uncle will have to part with you. It doesn't take much. With Qu Fengxian and Qu Ping around, just two or three people are enough." , Qu Ping is calm and mature, and the two brothers have completely opposite temperaments.

"How do you say this? The whole army can be dispatched by you." In Pei Yuanshao's heart, Zhou Xin is Zhou Cang's successor, and the world belongs to the Zhou family. However, he obeys Zhou Cang's instructions very much. As long as Zhou Cang doesn't speak, he Never provoke. "If necessary, I can write a letter to transfer Pei Feng here. I haven't seen this kid for a long time. I heard that he has a lot of achievements in Bingzhou and Hanoi. Sigh, I don't know how to send my grandson here."

Pei Feng married Zhou Chong's daughter, Boba married Zhou Xi's daughter, and each had offspring. Seeing that Zhou Nan was white and fat, Pei Yuanshao was also anxious to see his grandson.He had no choice but to dote on his grandson, and he refused to send it to the south if he stayed with him. He also said that the humidity in the south is not conducive to the growth of children.In a similar way, the daughter and Ma Tie's son also stayed in the north for the same reason, and added another set of excuses, saying that men in the north are more bloody, and boys should be in the north. Thinking about Pei Yuanshao makes him angry.Thinking about it carefully, what the son and daughter said made sense. He had lived in the north for half his life, and Pei Yuanshao was really uncomfortable in Wujun.

"That's not necessary. I want to ask Huang Xu to recruit five thousand warriors from the Shanyue people. It doesn't matter if you spend more money. People must be strong and obey orders. In addition, send people to Liaodong to ask Uncle Zhou Ji to recruit more good ones." Blades and armor."

"It's all trivial. As long as I write a letter, it can be done in less than a month, and the equipment can be completed in two months." Pei Yuanshao curled his lips, and the eldest son said that there was still something that couldn't be done.What's more, Zhou Cang asked Hua Tuo to heal Huang Xu's illness, and Zhou Ji was a retainer who followed Zhou Cang since he was a child.Gan Xiang is the son of Gan Chi, and he is asked to send a boat to pick him up.

"Thank you uncle. Everything must be done according to the rules. Don't delay other military affairs because of me."

"You don't need to worry about this. Follow me to the military camp first. Leading an army is different from being in power. As the saying goes, kindness does not lead soldiers..."
