The two shook their heads and looked at each other.

The young man in front of him was so young, he looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, ten years younger than the two of them.

How could such a young Han country be established?

The two didn't believe it at first.

You must know that the great achievements of the King of Han have already been spread in Confucianism.

To be able to achieve this point, wisdom, courage, strategy, and art of war are all indispensable.

Some of these can be acquired through learning, and some require extensive experience.

And the kid in front of him is only fifteen or sixteen years old, even if he started learning from the mother's womb, it is impossible for him to have these.

If it wasn't for the presence of Shishu Wuming, the two would have thought that King Han specially found a double to amuse them.

Just when the two were doubtful, Cao Chao spoke again

"The two of you are invited to come here today because I have a question that I would like to ask you two."

"Please speak, Your Majesty!"

Both of them were young people, and they were also very happy to see that the King of Han spoke so directly without so many red tapes.

"What is a king, what is a subject, what is a people, what is a country?"

After listening to Cao Chao's question, the two of them just pondered for a while. In the end, Li Si took a step ahead and cupped his hands and said:

"Those who are above tens of thousands of people are kings, and those who are below the king are ministers. If the king is not righteous, the world will not be peaceful. There is no day of peace in the country, and there is no time for peace in the family. If the king is not fair, the people will not obey.

After Cao Chao listened, he turned to look at Zhang Cang without saying a word.

Zhang Cang: "Everything in the world cannot be separated from yin and yang, the ruler is yang, the subject is yin; the father is yang, the son is yin; the husband is yang, and the woman is yin.

"All things generate and restrain each other, yin and yang, and yang restricts yin. Therefore, the king guides his subjects, the father guides his sons, and the husband guides his wife."

"The three steels of the king's way can be found in the sky. If the sky does not change, so will the way!"

After Cao Chao listened, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he hurriedly asked:

"The kingly way you said can be found in the sky. It seems to have a deep meaning. Can you explain it to me in detail?"

Seeing that Cao Chao was actually interested in his theory, Zhang Cang was naturally happy, so he began to talk about it:

"My subordinates believe that everything in the world is made of gas.

"Man lives between heaven and earth, surrounded by yin and yang, just like fish in water.

"Here, the qi of man and the qi of heaven and earth can communicate with each other, infiltrate each other, and then influence each other.

"If the human qi is harmonious and comfortable, and this qi is combined with the qi of the heaven, earth and the universe, the transformation of the heaven and the earth will be beautiful, and auspiciousness will appear; if the human qi is disordered and perverted, and this qi will be mixed with the qi of the heaven, earth and universe, the order of the heaven and the earth will be disordered." , Disasters and miracles come out."

"As a king, he gathers the spiritual beauty of the heaven and the earth, and the aura it transforms is extraordinary, and when combined with the aura of the universe, the influence is even more profound."

After some words, the whole room was silent.

Wuming and Li Si looked at Zhang Cang in surprise.

These remarks are obviously not the Confucian set of silent speech, strange power and confusion, so each of them fell into deep thought.

However, after Cao Chao heard this, he immediately became excited.

He never expected that Zhang Cang would actually bring out Dong Zhongshu's sense of heaven and man.

So he smiled and said:

"Mister's statement is quite new. Based on Confucianism's three cardinal guides and five constant principles, combined with Mohist's concept of heavenly punishment and Yinyang school's theory of interaction between heaven and man, it not only endows the monarch with supreme authority, but also uses "heaven-human interaction" to restrain the monarchy."

"Not bad, really good!"

As soon as he said a word, he immediately attracted three astonished eyes.

Such a profound theory, the hidden purpose behind it was actually smashed by this person.

This person's quick thinking and profound insight are really very human.

Among the three, Zhang Cang was the most, looking at Cao Chao as if he had seen a ghost.

You must know that this theory of the interaction between heaven and man has been worked out by him after five years of reading all the classics of various schools of thought and thinking hard.

It is intended to aim at this era in which the ruler is not the ruler and the minister is not the subject, and the upper and lower restraints occur from time to time. Using the name of natural disasters, I want to use the three cardinal principles and five constant principles to change the thinking of people in the world.

The theory that he came up with after hard thinking and meditation at the beginning, Hanwang only used the effort of a few words to completely analyze the basis and purpose of this theory.

Such erudition, such meticulous thinking ability, is this still a person?

At this moment, Cao Chao's image became taller and more mysterious in Zhang Cang's eyes.

With such frightening wisdom and enough ambition, it's no wonder that he was able to make a big fortune at such a young age!

However, just as Zhang Cang was feeling emotional, there was a sound of footsteps outside the camp.

"Your Majesty, the envoys of the Chu State seek to see you!"

"The widow is gone. Li Si and Zhang Cang, you two should go and meet the widow."

"???"

Chapter 323 Bai Jie's Arrival

In Nanzheng, tens of thousands of soldiers are practicing in the school grounds.

On the general stage, Zhu Gongdao was gazing down coldly, occasionally waving the command flag in his hand.

With the change of the flag, the pawns in the arena are constantly changing their positions.

"Congratulations, General, you have trained such a strong army!"

Seeing this, Gong Yangsun couldn't help praising him.

In just a few months, Zhu Gongdao was not only able to reorganize more than [-] surrendered troops, leaving [-] young and strong in Wucunqing, but also trained these people into an elite army, which is really amazing.

"Master Taishou is absurd."

After Zhu Gongdao replied lightly, he didn't speak again.

His character is like this, taciturn, not good at words.

However, he loves soldiers like a son, can share joys and sorrows with soldiers, has strict military discipline, and enforces the law like a mountain, so he is deeply respected by the soldiers in the army.

Just when the atmosphere was about to freeze, a personal guard came to report.

"General, there is a woman outside the camp gate asking to see you."

"Woman?"

Zhu Gongdao frowned and said displeasedly: "No, send her away!"

It is an important place for military camps, and women have never been allowed to come here.

After sending away his personal guards and leaving, Zhu Gongdao was about to continue to give orders, but he heard a loud noise in front of the camp gate, raising a cloud of smoke, and suddenly became furious.

It is unbearable for someone to smash the scene in broad daylight, so the order was issued immediately.

"The soldiers of the three armies listen to the order, line up, and prepare to meet the enemy!"

"promise!"

With one order, the [-] troops quickly formed a square formation.

The bow is stringed, the knife is unsheathed, and the brocade feathers dance to be high.

At this moment, there was no sound on the school field, and the air of murder was all over the sky. Everyone held their breath, waiting for the enemy to show up.

"Tap Tap!"

A series of footsteps sounded, and four figures slowly walked out in front of the camp gate.

He was the first person, tall and beautiful, with a mysterious, noble, and arrogant temperament.

In front of this woman, all men will feel ashamed.

Facing the shining bows, arrows and swords, the woman's pretty face showed no fear, and even her expression didn't change at all.

The beautiful scarlet eyes scanned the surroundings, and an extremely cold aura naturally exuded from her body, giving off a sort of aura that should not be entered by strangers, as if telling everyone that this is a deadly snow lotus, and anyone who gets close will die. .

"Wait, don't shoot the arrow!"

After Zhu Gongdao and Gongyangsun on the stage saw who was coming, they were startled, and hurriedly told their subordinates to put down their weapons.

The woman opposite is the king's wife, Bai Jie.

If they hurt each other, both of them can commit suicide and apologize.

"Boom boom boom!"

The two quickly got off the platform, walked up to Bai Jie, and bowed their hands together.

"I have seen my wife!"

"Hmph! Are you guilty?!"

"It's really a crime for me to disturb Madam!"

Seeing each other's displeasure, the two had no choice but to admit their mistakes.

"I'm not talking about this. The Qiang people have bypassed Hanzhong and headed south, and now they have reached Jiameng Pass. Why don't you send troops to support them?"

"My husband asked you two to guard the gate of Bashu, is this how you guard?"

"what?"

When the two heard this, they were as if struck by lightning.

It was Gong Yangsun who was the first to react, and hurriedly asked:

"May I ask where Madam got this news?"

"I came back from Kanto, and I wanted to go down the Han River to find my husband, but I heard a traveler mention this on the way."

"Later, I saw with my own eyes that many refugees from Jiameng Pass fled there."

After listening to Bai Jie's words, the expressions of Gong Yangsun and Zhu Gongdao became extremely ugly.

There are refugees who have escaped, and they can't help but believe it.
