Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

The next day, Emperor Liu Xie summoned Kong Rong to meet him, and spoke to Kong Rong in a gentle voice.

"Doctor Kong, I know that what you said in the court yesterday came from the bottom of your heart, and you are a rare pillar of loyal ministers in the Han Dynasty. But now that Marquis Wu is powerful, you should be more cautious in your writing."

Kong Rong criticized Sun Ce in court yesterday, because he always upholds his own character.But the emperor could remind him like this, and he was moved to tears, and immediately bowed and worshiped him again and again.

"I can't be your majesty's pillar of words. I wish I could use myself as your majesty to stabilize Kyushu."

Liu Xie got up from the throne and supported Kong Rong.

"Alas. I am also incompetent. It has been more than ten years since I came to the throne at a young age, and I have done nothing for the country and the people."

Kong Rong opened his mouth, and blurted out a series of words without thinking.

"I can't blame Your Majesty for my inaction on the country and the people. I think that Dong Zhuo hijacked His Majesty to go to Chang'an. If His Majesty hadn't planned properly, how could he return to the east. It's a pity that the world was divided by the princes. It is no longer the heart of the soldiers during the Guangwu period. Kyushu obeyed the orders of the world."

"Yes, if the soldiers put their heart into it, why worry about the world not being able to surrender."

Liu Xie was disappointed.

Kong Rong thought about it and suggested: "Your Majesty, now that General Yuan Benchu ​​is gone, why not award the General to Wuhou Sun Ce? It is also Your Majesty who trusts him to guard the territory."

Liu Xie clapped his hands and praised, "Wen Ju's suggestion is very good. I will worship Marquis Wu as a general. I don't know if Dr. Kong is willing to go to Marquis Wu's army?"

Kong Rong immediately replied, "I don't dare to ask for what I want."

Taiwei Yang Biao learned that the emperor wanted to worship Sun Ce as a general, so he hurried over to ask to see the emperor.

"Your Majesty, worshiping Marquis Wu as a great general is still a matter of discussion. Marquis Wu now has a large number of soldiers, so worshiping him as a great general is not an excuse to make him famous?"

The emperor looked at Yang Biao who had loyally guarded him back from Chang'an, and sighed in his heart.Taiwei is loyal and reliable, but he has no long-term vision.But the monarch and his ministers have gone through hardships together, but the love is not comparable to ordinary people.The emperor then confided in Yang Biao's details.

"Wen Xian, before the Marquis of Wu already owned the land of ten prefectures in the world, the Changshi Mansion did not mention it, Jizhou and Youzhou fell into his pocket, and it may be just a short time. Can this Sizhou, where Luoyang is located, be independent?"

Yang Biao opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything to comfort the world.

"There is nothing I can do to worship Marquis Wu as a great general. With the name of a monarch and minister, Marquis Wu may not be willing to be a rebellious minister who usurped the Han. Even if he wanted to, he would be a little more scrupulous."

"Your Majesty is saying that things can be smoothed out slowly? Waiting for the thousands of possible opportunities in the world?"

Listening to the emperor's heartfelt words, Yang Biao couldn't help asking.

"That's right, Wen Xian, isn't that how our monarchs and ministers have come here in the past ten years. Dong Zhuoquan was conquered by all the heroes in the world, but he couldn't hurt him. But he died at the hands of Wang Zishi and Lu Fengxian. Dong Zhuo's remaining party, Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou, etc., are domineering, and Li Jue and Guo Si are fighting each other, so we have the opportunity to return to the east. This is what I mean by sending Kong Beihai to worship Marquis Wu as a general in my place."

Yang Biao was ashamed by the emperor's words, "Your Majesty, it's because I don't think long-term and comprehensive enough. Kong Beihai has an upright personality, and he speaks fiercely and refuses to turn around when things happen. I am afraid that he will offend Marquis Wu. Dog Zixiu is clever and flexible, can you send dog son?" Serve Kong Beihai and go with him?"

The emperor knew Yang Xiu, the son of Taiwei Yang Biao.He was a man of profound knowledge, good manners, great intelligence and wisdom.His prince was enlightened by Yang Xiu.It is not an exaggeration for the Taiwei to comment on his cleverness and wit.At the same time, he also knew that Yang Biao recommended his son Yang Xiu to go with Kong Rong because he wanted his son to share the danger that Kong Rong might encounter.

"Wen Xian, why are you doing this. It's a good time for Dezu."

The implication of the emperor's words was that Kong Rong's life might be in danger if he went there, and Yang Xiu was already a high-ranking doctor before his thirties, so it was really not suitable and unnecessary to take risks.

Yang Biao paid homage to the Son of Heaven again, "In the past, Wenju was not afraid of Cao Sikong, and he gave up his life to see Cao Mengde's envoy to avoid disaster. Now His Majesty has selected Wenju as the envoy of the Son of Heaven. My son is just a doctor who cannot replace Wen Hexi, but he will serve him. Being around the body is also what it should be. It’s just public and private.”

Seeing Taiwei Yang Biao's insistence, Emperor Liu Xie had no choice but to nod in agreement.

After Kong Rong was appointed by the emperor over there, it will take time for various banners and ribbons to honor the books and seals.He went back to the mansion and told his wife that he would go to Wuhou's army to worship the general on behalf of the emperor.

Xi Shi (made up surname) couldn't help crying when he heard the words.She is only in her early twenties, and her family background does not appear to be Kong Rong's wife.

Kong Rong was minister in Beihai, Qingzhou for eight years. He was self-righteous and ignored all kinds of people.Those who talk a lot are favored, and those who are able to do things without gorgeous articles are not valued and appointed, which leads to cunning people and officials in Beihai, and rampant chaos in the market.If the Yellow Turban Army hadn't captured the attention of the government and the opposition, Beihai under its rule would have become the number one impeachment.

It happened that Yuan Tan led the army to attack Beihai. The two sides fought from spring to summer. In the end, there were only a few hundred soldiers defending the city.When the whole city fell into Yuan Tan's hands at night, he fled in a panic alone. His wife and underage children were all captured by Yuan Tan.

Then he married his wife again after paying homage to Dr. Yushi, and found that his youngest son was just toddling.There is another one in Xi's stomach.

These two are a pair of sons and daughters who will talk about "under the collapse of the nest, there will be a perfect egg" in later generations.

Seeing her crying, Kong Rong reprimanded displeasedly: "Why are you crying when you go to serve in the army for the Son of Heaven?"

When Xi Shi saw that Kong Rong was angry, he became a little timid.Reluctantly suppressing tears, he hesitated for a moment before murmuring: "Da Lang is just learning to walk, I'm about to give birth, if something happens at home, what can I do?"

"How can family affairs be placed above state affairs!"

Xi's tears poured out again, and Kong Rong was so angry that he stood up, "Ignorant stupid woman, only knows about the affairs of one family."

When the butler saw the master coming out, he hurried up to greet him and said, "The Shepherd has been here for a while."

Kong Rong usually doesn't like to see the eldest son-in-law Yang Qin, and he doesn't allow his family members to call him son-in-law anymore.The reason was that Kong Rong's eldest daughter died shortly after giving birth, and Yang Qin soon married Cai Yong's second daughter.In Kong Rong's eyes, Yang Fen was not a man who could not keep his filial piety for his wife.

He disdains to associate with Yang Shen.

Seeing that the master still seemed to ignore him, the butler hurriedly said: "Yang Langzhong is here with Taiwei's son Yang Langzhong."

Kong Rong heard that Yang Xiu had come together, so he had no choice but to bear his unhappiness and went to meet people in front.

He was also very helpless when it came to Yang Qin's remarriage.His wife died suddenly after giving birth. At the time when his father was dying of serious illness, Cai Yong came to visit his father, and the two old friends who cherished each other agreed to get married.

The mother died early, the father was seriously ill, the wife left behind a son who was waiting to be fed and was not yet full moon, and there was no housewife to manage the family. Marrying a new person is the most appropriate way to solve the predicament.

Then Yang Yu will have to face the former father-in-law Kong Rong, and also face the grateful kindness of the later father-in-law Cai Yong who saved him from the embarrassment.Another reason why Yang Qin couldn't speak out was that his father, Yang Xu, was too incorruptible as an official (that is, the prefect of Xuanyu).Not to mention his own old clothes, broken clothes and broken cars, he is more willing to do good things, and his salary helps the poor, but his wife and children have to rely on the clan to support them.Without Cai's support, his own life would not be able to survive.

But how could the former father-in-law Kong Rong understand these things?

Yang Yu heard that Yang Xiu was going to accompany Kong Rong to proclaim the decree, so she mustered up the courage to come to see her ex-father-in-law.Because his ex-wife asked him to take care of Geng Zhixuanjie's father when he was dying.He was afraid that Kong Rong might not come back with his life if he went to Wu Hou and talked nonsense.He and Yang Xiu have asked him several times along the way.

Yang Xiu understood his father's intentions when he learned that his father suggested that he accompany Kong Rong to see Marquis Wu.Now with the plea of ​​Yang Shen, it is nothing more than two things at the same time.

"Mingtu, you and I have known each other for many years, and I will serve Dr. Kong carefully if I agree with you. He saved my father's life in the past, and that also saved my family. You really don't need to come to Confucius's residence again. "

This matter is about Yuan Shu proclaiming himself emperor, Cao Cao secretly thought that Yang Biao was related to Yuan Shu, and wanted to remove Yang Biao from the position of Taiwei.

Yang Qin shook his head, "Dezu, I know you are a man who is the most trustworthy person. But before Kong's departure, he was still worried about the doctor. He once asked me to take care of him. Don't let him act upright and willful. He went to the army of Marquis Wu, If I don't come to remind the doctor to speak carefully, I will feel uneasy."

Kong Rong forbade Yang Qi to call him father-in-law again.Yang Xiu also knew about these old affairs between the Weng and his son-in-law.To be honest, Yang Xiu admired Kong Rong's literary talents, but he sneered at his inability to manage family affairs well.

Who the hell, his wife and children were given to Yuan Tan, and he ran away alone!

As expected, even if Yang Xiu was with him, the ex-father-in-law didn't give him a good face.

Yang Xiu accompanied him to finish what he had to say, and they left together.

"Mingtu, it's good that you get what you want. Don't pay attention to Dr. Kong's words." Yang Xiu persuaded his sullen friend.

Yang Qin smiled bitterly, "Dezu, thanks to your presence today, otherwise the doctor may not be willing to see me. I am used to being treated like this over the years. Alas, it was only after Fa'er grew up that the doctor stopped cursing my relationship with Mrs. Cai. .”

Yang Xiu knew that there was also the life of the second son of Yang Qi.It was Yangfa left by Kong, and Yangcheng, the first son of Cai. The two children fell ill at the same time. Cai knew that he could not have both, so he concentrated on taking care of Yangfa. In the end, Yangfa recovered and Yangcheng died.

That is, from then on, Kong Rong was willing to let Yang Qi come in and bring Yang Fa to the door.

Yang Xiu sighed in his heart, everyone has unsatisfactory things, that is, general words of comfort, just to explain to others, it will not have any practical effect.

But his family is facing a greater test, but he knows it well and can't say it.The father's meaning tends to be the emperor's idea, and he uses the name of the general and the righteousness of the monarch and minister to frame Wu Hou.But my own view is different from that of my father.

Sun Polu was determined to forge ahead and cross the border to quell chaos. As the prefect of Changsha, he dared to kill Wang Rui, the governor of Jingzhou, and Zhang Zi, the prefect of Nanyang. After defeating Xu Rong and Li Meng, the soldiers were tortured and killed. If he has any timidity, it can be seen that he does not have many scruples about official position in his heart.

And his descendant Sun Ce is even more capable.Yuan Shu can act as if nothing had happened when he repented of his marriage. After ten years of hard work, he has won [-]% of the world. How can he be content with the position of general?And sending Kong Rong to the army as an angel might provoke Sun Ce to march into Luoyang immediately.

But the emperor insisted on this, and his father could not persuade the emperor to change, nor could he change to a "suitable" person with a higher position to issue the decree. Yang Xiu was very worried.
