Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

A few days ago, Liu Bai wanted to go back.

Counting the time, the limelight in Chang'an City has passed.

At this time, only idiots will bring up the matter again that Liu Bai has deceived all the civil and military officials in the court.

Today, the main theme of the court is Vega at home, benefiting the Quartet.

By the way, spread the kindness of Datang to foreign lands.

However, Liu Wan'er and the others didn't seem to want to go back.

No one knows each other, and a lot of customs are missing, so they live very comfortably.

But I can't go back.

Li Er, who had just returned to Chang'an not long ago, issued several imperial decrees in succession, forcing Liu Bai to go back.

Probably, it was because he didn't want Liu Bai to live a happier life than him.

Along with the last imperial decree came a person who surprised Liu Bai.

This person knew that Liu Bai didn't like to give face to His Majesty very much.

He purposely didn't put on any pomp to pass the decree, and after a brief announcement, he came to the warehouse alone, outside Liu Bai's room.

Under the leadership of Xu Chu, they were able to enter.

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Liu still has the habit of reading history books. This "Book of Jin" was also compiled by the old man. Does Mr. Liu have any doubts?"

Wei Zheng put the imperial decree on Liu Bai's table, and sat aside by himself.

The old guy was silent for a long time and didn't interfere with anything.

I heard that this time, he took the initiative to invite Ying, and ran to Lingnan to summon Liu Bai back.

The relationship between Liu Bai and Wei Zheng is neither good nor bad.

The two sides have cooperated and also had conflicts.

They all maintain a tacit understanding of their own peace.

Liu Bai already knew that it was Wei Zheng who came, so he put down the book, and asked with some doubts: "Liu has been reading "Book of Jin" for half a decade, and he found that although the Sima family is so stupid, the national power is still strong. Years of defeat in foreign wars, and even caused the Wuhu Rebellion?"

Wei Zheng smiled, and said: "This question is enough to explain in one sentence, it is nothing more than, living in government and forgetting danger, drunk and dreaming of death!"

Chapter 1181 It won't take long, you will be famous again, Liu must thank you

It is said that the Wei and Jin Dynasties were romantic, and literati and scholars emerged in endlessly.

As everyone knows, those poets and poets, chewing five stone powder, wearing crotch pants, one by one, are dreaming of collecting books in Nanshan and never seeing the world.

The state became weaker and weaker, and the people had no blood power, resulting in a chaos in the Central Plains, with men as livestock and women as pigs.

There are thousands of people, not one in a hundred!

A hard-working scholar like Wei Zheng is deeply disgusted with that period of history!

He hated Sima's stupidity, the incompetence of scholars, and even the people at that time, who had no spine at all!

The "Book of Jin" in Liu Bai's hands was compiled only last year.

There are two most prominent features.

First, there are many authors.

With Wei Zheng's status, he is just a small editor.

The second is to have a clear attitude.

Since ancient times, very few authors have expressed their views on history books.

For example, in Sima Qian's "Historical Records", the big man regarded Xiang Yu as a bandit, but Sima Qian did not obliterate Xiang Yu's achievements.

Instead, from the perspective of a bystander, it explains all the good and evil that Xiang Yu has done in just thirty years.

However, many authors of "Book of Jin", including Li Er himself, have criticized Sima's family history.

Speaking of the Wuhu Rebellion, Wei Zheng was greatly moved.

Liu Bai personally poured him a cup of tea, intending to listen carefully to the attitude of the mainstream literati in the Tang Dynasty towards that period of history.

"In the late period of the Three Kingdoms period, the population of the Central Plains was severely underpopulated. The rulers of the Wei and Jin Dynasties kept recruiting the 'Five Hus' to settle in the Central Plains. In just a hundred years, the number of Hu people who moved into the Central Plains was twice that of the Han people!"

"Five barbarians and sixteen countries, barbarian people are respected, Han people are dogs, eight thousand young girls are drowned alive, and one hundred thousand healthy children live side by side. Isn't it just a terrible disaster?!"

"In the 150th and [-]th year of the Jin Dynasty, the literati did not think about serving the country, and the military generals did not think about making progress. For more than a hundred years, the last trace of blood was completely consumed, and civilization did not exist. How sad it is!"

Wei Zheng's feelings are abundant.

As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes.

It's a pity that he never said too much.

"If it wasn't for Wu Mourning Heavenly King's decree to destroy Hu, I am afraid that the Han Dynasty will perish, and the culture will be annihilated, which is sad and deplorable"

Wei Zheng took a deep breath and wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.

Seeing that there was a cup of hot tea on his body, he couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

"It made Mr. Liu laugh."

Liu Bai put away the "Book of Jin".

Listening to others is much more interesting than seeing it yourself.

"Duke Zheng doesn't have to worry about it. It's wise to write history. Liu needs to ask for advice."

Wei Zheng was very puzzled, because of Liu Bai's sudden interest in Jin history?

However, it is good to read more books after all.

Liu Bai is well-known for his poetry, and he presided over the textual research on the authenticity of "Shangshu" back then, which further highlighted his talent.

It is really a waste to be a merchant all the time.

"In that case, then Wei said it brazenly."

Next, Wei Zheng began to systematically tell Liu Bai about that period of history that can be described as humiliating.

It takes half a day to talk!

After drinking all the tea, Liu Bai wanted to find someone to fetch hot water, but Wei Zheng stopped him, for fear that Liu Bai would miss something.

When it was time for dinner, I finally talked about something.

"If Mr. Liu still has the heart to study history, you might as well go to the Yan family to have a look. The Yan family has tens of thousands of books, which can always solve the doubts in Mr. Liu's heart."

Liu Bai stood up again and cupped his hands.

Learning requires a learning attitude.

Those who are masters are teachers, and the inspiration Wei Zheng gave him is really not small.

"Duke Zheng said before that the chaos caused by the Wuhu was caused by the people of Jin who lived in government and forgot about their dangers, and were drunk and dreamed of death. Liu believed it deeply."

With that said, Liu Bai opened the door.

I want to invite Wei Zheng to talk while eating.

Seeing that it was getting late, Wei Zheng followed Liu Bai to the restaurant for a walk.

"This is indeed the most fundamental reason. Of course, the inheritance of Guozuo focuses on farming and mulberry. The humbleness of various systems is also an important reason."

During the meal, Wei Zheng kept telling Liu Bai about some system characteristics of the Jin Dynasty.

Liu Bai listened very carefully.

Take out a small notebook from time to time and write down a few strokes.

Wei Zheng talked about agriculture, handicrafts, and business.

He also recited several articles, focusing on the influence of the writing style at that time on the people's thinking.

"Only when the spirit is weak, virtue is more important than virtue. Scholar-bureaucrats are absurd and ignorant, Xuan Buddhism is prevalent, literati don't think about serving the country, and all their knowledge is buried in the tomb, so that people's livelihood is gradually withering."

Wei Zheng spoke very well.

Li You, who was having dinner with the two of them, was also fascinated.

"Master Wei, why are all the masters in the palace unwilling to teach these knowledge?"

Wei Zheng remained silent.

Although the Wuhu Rebellion was dominated by Di people and Huns, the old people of Xianbei did not do much good.

But the blood of the Xianbei people flows in the royal family of today.

In a short period of time, I am afraid that no one dares to record the real history in books

Not to mention, preach it to the princes!

After Liu Bai finished his meal, he tapped Li You on the head with his chopsticks.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"

Li You curled his mouth, lowered his head silently, and continued to plan rice.

"It's a good thing for His Royal Highness King Yan to make progress, but it's a pity that the old minister is single and weak. If you want to continue studying Jin History, you'd better ask Mr. Wen Ji more."

In this world, only Wang Ji, Li Gang, and Yan Shigu are qualified to comment on that period of history to the royal family.

When they said it, even Li Er had to listen humbly.

Even if the three of them were talking about the scandal of the ancestors of the Li family

After dinner, Liu Bai arranged for Wei Zheng to take a lunch break.

He returned to the room by himself and began to sort out today's results.

When Wei Zheng woke up and came to look for Liu Bai, Liu Bai had just put down his pen.

"Duke Zheng, Mr. Liu attributed the root cause of the Wuhu Rebellion to two points, and I hope Mr. Zheng will refute it."

Today, Wei Zheng has a good impression of Liu Bai Dasheng.

Liu Bai in the past was arrogant and domineering.

This time, his attitude towards studying is a model of literati.

"A good use of the word, entertained to death"

Wei Zheng's eyes lit up.

"The old man wants to add these four characters to the "Book of Jin", and discuss it with Senior Brother Gu when we get back!"

Liu Bai smiled meaningfully, and said, "I must also thank Mr. Zheng."

Wei Zheng laughed out loud, accidentally saw the unopened imperial decree on the table, and then remembered his mission.

"Young Master Liu, His Majesty specially instructed the veterans after returning to court"

Liu Bai smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zheng, Mr. Liu has already packed his bags, and he can leave in a few days!"

"Then the old man will go ahead and return to Chang'an, invite friends, and discuss history with Mr. Liu!"

Judging by his appearance, he was even a little impatient.

Liu Bai sent him to the door and waved goodbye.

"Mr. Zheng, go slowly, see you in Chang'an!"

Watching Wei Zheng's team go away, Liu Bai took a deep breath and said something inexplicably.

"It won't be long before you become famous all over the world again. Liu must thank you very much."

Chapter 1182 Zhang Junzheng is Zhang Jiuling's great-grandfather

Of course we have to go.

Liu Bai has had enough of staying here!

But before leaving, there are still a lot of messy things that need to be dealt with.

Without making good arrangements, Liu Bai would not be relieved to return to Chang'an.
