Great Wei Nengchen

Uncles and nephews who are new to Xuchang City and are not familiar with the place of life, it is best to seek a place to live with relatives and friends, which can not only provide free accommodation, food and clothing, but also avoid many troubles. With the title of 'Jingzhou No.1 Scholar', those Confucian officials must be regarded as honored guests and treat him well!

Unexpectedly, after Pang's uncle and nephew entered the city, they found a small and clean inn and stayed there for the time being without showing their mountains, dew, or identities. , They didn't even visit the residence of the great Confucian Kong Rong, they acted extremely low-key!

This is not surprising, Kong Rong is keen on fame, covets wealth, and dictates state affairs. Mr. Pang De is indifferent by nature, likes tranquility, and regards wealth as floating clouds. Both of them are Confucian children.

In addition, Mr. Pang De has a clear mind and has some insights into the current situation. The world is in chaos, the princes are fighting for hegemony, and the wars continue. Whoever is the darling of the big era!

As for those like Kong Rong, who are self-righteous, self-righteous, and useless, if they stay at home obediently, reciting poems and enjoying the moon, can they live comfortably, forcibly interfere in government affairs, and point fingers everywhere? Sooner or later, they will die without a place to bury them, and even their relatives and friends will be unlucky with them, so naturally they have to stay far away!

Of course, keep a low profile, and it’s not like you don’t do anything. Since you’re not familiar with the place, you should inquire about it. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win a hundred battles. Uncle and nephew Pang made some preparations, walked onto the streets of Xuchang, and started to look around. 'Sweep the dishes'!

A place where fish and dragons are mixed must be well-informed. This is a kind of social experience. The two uncles and nephews walked on the street without deliberately inquiring about it. They just followed the flow of people. If there were many people, they would go there and soon arrived at the destination. --Tianxiang Building!

Tianxiang Tower - the first golden cave in Xuchang City, beautiful women are like clouds, you can pick them up, eat, drink, play, have everything you expect, from high officials and dignitaries, down to the three religions and nine streams, all gather here, and the news is also the most well-informed, as long as you are willing to pay for gold , even the little emperor favors that concubine, and he can clearly see what posture he uses!

Some people can't help but wonder whether Pang Degong, a generation of Confucians with high morals and perfect character, went to play in a brothel in broad daylight and brought his nephew with him. Is it indecent? wait until night?

This needs to be explained. Brothel, originally referring to elegant homes with exquisite decoration, was the first creation of Guan Zhong, a generation of virtuous ministers in the Spring and Autumn Period. It belongs to state-owned institutions, and its role is even greater. It can increase fiscal revenue and stabilize social security. Attracting a large number of talents is beneficial to the country without any harm!

In other words, in addition to eating, drinking and having fun, the brothel is also an ancient financial center, talent center, and exchange center... It is highly sought after by literati, and it is an elegant thing to visit brothels, so there is nothing to be ashamed of, let alone uncles and nephews. , even if father and son come together, it's not a big deal, it's good to have an open atmosphere!

"Invite the two nobles, this place has everything you need to eat, drink and have fun. The service is thoughtful, and the child is innocent. You will definitely feel at home, and you will never want to return..."

The person in charge of welcoming guests at the door is the little turtle slave, Lu Qiannian, who is already a senior manager, so he doesn't have to work so hard, but it's a pity that occupational diseases are hard to get rid of.

Of course, the little tortoise slave welcomes and sees off countless people, and his eyes are extremely vicious. The guests who can make him fancy are by no means ordinary people. In the room, exudes a kind of nobility, which makes people dare not underestimate it!

The little turtle slave led the way, took the uncle and nephew to the hall, chose a good place to sit down, and asked people to serve a sumptuous food and drink. The service was extremely thoughtful. It was all resolved by the nephew and uncle ingeniously!

There are a lot of guests in the hall, eating, drinking and having fun, or whispering, doing their own things. In addition, there is a rap artist, sitting on a high platform, using both hands and feet, eloquently, telling stories...

"The moon was black and murderous night, the wind was high and the sky was on fire. Yuan Benchu ​​was full of pride, light and unprepared, and was sleeping soundly with his arms around a beautiful woman. Then thought of Prime Minister Cao's surprise attack, a fire burned Wuchao, and Yuan's soldiers and horses ran out of food and grass. , collapsed in an instant, countless dead, many descendants...

Seeing that things were going badly, Yuan Shao threw away the gold, silver and jewels, as well as the beautiful woman Jiao'e, climbed on the horseback naked, fled all the way north, and finally returned to Yecheng naked!

This is exactly: Weakness only counts victory because of the number, but the strength of the army seeks death for the sake of the few... If you want to know what will happen next, let's listen to the next chapter to break it down! "

"Good!...well said!...that's great!"

..........................................

What the rap artist performed was the story of the Guandu War. The story was vivid, interesting, and lifelike. There were bursts of applause, and some people took out silver and copper coins and threw them on the stage!

"After the Guandu War, the Yuan family declined and the Cao family rose. Within three to five years, they will definitely dominate the Central Plains. The scholar Yuan Wentao and martial arts strategy, and Wang Zuozhi's talents, do you have the intention to join Cao Ying and build a career?"

Professor Pang Degong has countless disciples, but he doesn't interfere with their official careers. If he wants to join the princes, he can do what he wants, as long as he doesn't help the tyrant!

"Cao Cao is very talented, wise and decisive, and he is eager to seek talents. He is indeed a traitor in troubled times. Unfortunately, the best time has passed. Cao Ying's counselors are like clouds, generals are like rain, and his nephew is useless!"

Pang Tong pondered for a moment, sighed and shook his head. If a counselor or a good general wants to make a contribution, he must choose the right leader and the right time. Otherwise, he will either be killed or be mediocre for a lifetime!

Cao Cao dominates the land of the Central Plains, and his wings are full. There is Guo Jia in literature, and Xiao Yi in martial arts. They are perfect in combination and invincible. No matter who comes to defect, it is impossible to replace the two.

Pang Tong is ugly and arrogant. If he goes to a power group, he must sit in the second or third position to fully exert his strength and create an unworldly achievement. In this regard, he has the same ambition as a friend. Become a prime minister, make contributions, and rather be a chicken head than a cow's queen!

"Cao Mengde rose up in Yanzhou, and his advisers: Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, Xun You, ... are all Yanzhou scholars. They make suggestions, occupy high positions, and form an interest group. The scholars of the nine counties of Jingxiang are probably There is no chance!"

Pound nodded approvingly. Most of the students he taught were from the Jingxiang family. They were all talented, proud and arrogant, and would never be inferior to others. It is indeed not the best choice to join the Caoying Group. !

Officialdom is like a battlefield, risk wins three points, if you want to be safe and prosperous, you must form a party for personal gain, form an interest group, have benefits together, block disasters together, watch and help each other, fearless in the wind and rain!

There are many ways to form a party: blood relationship, marriage, classmate, fellow friend, comrade-in-arms... fellow countrymen are also one kind. Big, naturally get close to each other!

The Han people value their nostalgia, even if they are selfless people, they are willing to support the children of their hometown. Over time, the court is full of Yanzhou scholars. People from other places will naturally be excluded. This is the unspoken rule of officialdom, and it will be the same after a thousand years !

........................................................................

Next, the uncle and nephew bowed their heads in silence, just eating and drinking, and they were soon full. At the same time, they collected several important news:

First of all, Zhengming Terrace is rushing to work day and night, and the progress is extremely fast. In ten days and a half months, the main building will be ready for use, and the auxiliary buildings behind will be constructed one after another. When it is fully completed, it will become the number one university in the world!

Secondly, hundreds of schools of thought came out of the deep mountains and gathered in Xuchang City, including Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism, Legalism, Buddhism, famous scholars, military strategists, strategists, yin and yang families... There are countless talents, it can be said that a hundred schools of thought contend, Academic feast!

Finally, those precious books are in the Marquis of Wuchou's mansion. It is said that there are thousands of volumes, all of which are priceless treasures. In addition, Da Sima Xiao Yi announced that he has prepared three treasures for scholars from various schools of thought. It can revitalize culture and education, and it will last forever!

After eating and drinking enough and receiving the news, the two uncles and nephews looked at each other, got up and left Tianxiang Tower, followed the directions of passers-by, and walked towards Wuchouhou's Mansion...

Mr. Pang De is knowledgeable, but also simple-minded. He is going to visit the Marquis of Wushou Mansion and visit Da Sima Xiao Yi. If possible, he hopes to copy all the books in the Marquis Mansion's collection and bring them back to his hometown in Jingzhou. He came here to teach his disciples. As for the competition of a hundred schools of thought, he has no interest at all, and he doesn't want to fight for fame and fortune!

As for Pang Tong, he wants to know who the famous "Ghost Face Xiao Lang" is and how capable he is. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. Maybe in a few years, the two will face each other on the battlefield. Do you live or die?

"Xiao Ba, come here!... Keep an eye on them, and report back quickly!"

Seeing that Pang's uncle and nephew had left, Lu Qiannian flashed out from the dark place, and summoned a clever servant to follow him to find out their identities and where they lived.

Ever since he climbed up to Xiao Yi, Lu Qiannian has been working secretly, specifically two things:

One is to use the identity of the brothel steward to monitor the civil and military officials who come to play, record their every move, every word and deed, all in a booklet, and secretly send it to Wuchouhou's mansion!

The second is to keep your eyes open and stare at the guests who come and go. If there are talented people from poor families, strange people and strangers, they can be recommended to Wuchouhou's Mansion. For the sake of grand plans and hegemony, Xiao Yi is also gathering talents!

Chapter 920 Zhengyi Shinto, Competing Spells!

As the saying goes: "The king of hell is easy to see, but the little ghost is hard to deal with." Before meeting a big man, there will always be a lot of troubles. This is the case with Pang's uncles and nephews. Xiao Lang, in the end, he didn't get what he wanted. It wasn't because the soldiers stopped him, but because there were too many people in front of the gate of the mansion - a sea of ​​people, too crowded!

"Hot pancakes, fragrant broth, thanks to Mr. Xiao's blessing, you won't take any money, come and eat!"

"Everyone has a share. Everyone has lined up. Women, children, and the elderly will receive it first, and the young man will wait behind!"

......................................................

In front of Wuchouhou's mansion, there are more than a dozen large pots lined up, boiling fragrant mutton soup, and big pancakes, which are being distributed to the common people, one piece of bread for each person, and a big bowl of hot soup If it is a child, you can also get a piece of meaty bones, all of which are full of oil, and the belly is round!

Generally, when a wealthy family adds a baby, they will donate some food, so as to accumulate merits and add blessings and longevity. "Ghost Face Xiao Lang" is happy to have a son, so he is naturally generous. Others' families donate more than 20 in a row for three to five days at most. There is still no sign of the end of the day, and the food is plentiful, and the food is well managed, which has attracted countless people to receive it, and has accumulated countless merits!

The world is in chaos, the fields are barren, food is extremely scarce, and people starve to death every day. Although Xuchang City is the capital of the Han Dynasty, ordinary people live in hardship, but they are half-starved and half-starved. This kind of food can only be seen a little during the Chinese New Year!

After the charity started, people flocked here, tens of thousands of them every day, everyone also heard that the second son of the Xiao family is about to be born, the charity will continue, there will be no two or three months, it will never stop Yes, what a great deal!

What people are looking forward to now is Da Sima's "inner strength and diligence", and the wives of the Hou's Mansion will cooperate fully to give birth to a few more young princes. In this way, everyone will be able to beat their teeth frequently. Therefore, many people burn incense and pray day and night, I hope the descendants of the Xiao family will prosper!

The common people were happy, but Pang’s uncle and nephew were frowning. Tens of thousands of people crowded together, and the whole Baihu Street was full. The road was blocked and it was difficult to walk. Tried three times, all ended in failure...

The first time: The two uncles and nephews squeezed halfway, and they had already seen the gate of the Hou Mansion. They just took a breath, and they were pushed back by the flow. They wanted to shout, but the voice was so loud that no one could hear it Woolen cloth?

The second time: the two uncles and nephews moved forward bravely, walked in without retreating, and finally squeezed to the front without saying a word. Mutton soup, and then the crowd was surging, and it was squeezed out again!

The third time: the uncle and nephew had just started to work hard, but they were pushed back by the crowd. The reason was 'they have received food, so they can't be greedy'. As a result, Mr. Pang De flashed to his waist, and Pang Tong lost a shoe. The two were in a panic. , and went back to the original place!
