After Lu Lingqi left, Lu Yan stayed alone in the governor's mansion.
Last time, the system had a separate prompt for the Jade Seal, which made Lu Yan think that he might be rewarded for returning the Jade Seal to Emperor Xian.
However, the final facts proved that Lu Yan himself thought too much...
Just when Lu Yan was thinking about how to come up with something that would benefit the country and the people and enrich his merits, Taichang Yang Biao suddenly walked in.
When Lu Yan saw Yang Biao coming, he quickly stood up and came down from the main seat, bowed and said as a disciple: "Ah, what kind of wind brought you here today?"
Facing Yang Biao, Lu Yan still seemed very respectful.
This old man is now not only a highly respected scholar in the world, but also the dean of Taiyuan College, the leader of scholars in the world. His reputation is now very important, and he cannot be offended easily.
"Lu Changsheng!" The old man glared angrily as soon as he came in, which made Lu Yan's heart skip a beat, "Are you still offended after all..."
Lu Yan laughed along and asked, "Um...what advice do you have?"
"Why did you recruit my disciple and son without notifying me?" Yang Biao stared at Lu Yan and asked.
Facing the old man's authority, Lu Yan carefully explained: "Well...it's important to obey the authority in urgent matters. The main reason is that this Northern Expedition is a once-in-a-lifetime training opportunity for them. If they miss this time, it may be difficult to encounter them in the future."
"Hmph!" Yang Biao obviously didn't agree with Lu Yan and said, "My son Yang Xiu and my close disciple Zhuge Liang, you transfer the two people I value most into the army at once. If anything happens...
..."
Lu Yan quickly interrupted: "Bah, bah, bah, it's so unlucky! Don't think too much. I will leave them with Cao Gong. How could anything happen?"
Unexpectedly, Yang Biao was even more distressed and said: "What I am most worried about is Cao Mengde! You should know that Cao Mengde is the best to take risks. He has led the army alone to rob people in the rear several times.
Look at how he dared to chase Dong Zhuo with thousands of cavalry back then. In recent years, he also raided Wuchao and lured the enemy with Cangting...
How could this not be a narrow escape?
Leave my son and disciples with him? How can I rest assured!!"
"That's right!" Lu Yan suddenly realized after hearing this, that Lao Cao himself was not a worry-free person, and it would be even more dangerous than usual to have him around...
Thinking of this, Lu Yan immediately rectified the situation and said: "That's all, when we meet up with Duke Cao, I will find a way to get them back. From now on, I will only take them to discuss military matters and not to the battlefield. What do you think?"
When Yang Biao heard this, his stinky face slowly melted away, and he said: "That's more or less... I'm not protecting the weak, it's that they shouldn't be killed on the battlefield before their talent for revenge is revealed."
"Yes, yes, what you always said makes sense!"
Just when Lu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, Yang Biao suddenly asked: "By the way, what do you think of Sima Yi?"
How about Sima Yi? Lu Yan was stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself: "That's a wolf destroyer!"
Not only did he kill Zhuge Liang and cut off Shu's greatest hope for the Northern Expedition, he also secretly plotted to seize Cao Wei's kingdom, and finally allowed his son to return to the Jin Dynasty and become the king of a country.
The founder of the final winner of the Three Kingdoms, what do you think of him?
Lu Yan wanted to say this very much, but he was afraid that Yang Biao would hit someone, so he suppressed this slightly evil idea in the end. After all, it was too bizarre and shocking.
"Sima Yi is so talented that he is Kong Ming's lifelong enemy." Lu Yan thought for a while and said something ambiguous.
After Yang Biao heard this, he was silent for a long time before he said: "Sima Yi is a very deep man in the city. He has the look of an eagle and a wolf. He is probably not a good person!"
At this time, people attached great importance to facial features, and a particularly typical one was Pang Tong... a great talent with a world-wide reputation, but he was rejected by Cao Cao and Sun Quan because of his appearance. Even the one who was known as the most knowledgeable
Liu Bei, who is a wise man, also showed a little disgust in his eyes at the beginning, which made Pang Tong hurt his sensitive heart.
According to legend, people with a hawk-watching face tend to be extremely arrogant, ruthless, and greedy... This is one of the faces that was despised by all the ancients.
Yang Biao accidentally saw Sima Yi's glaring look when he turned around. Therefore, he was quite concerned about and fearful of Sima Yi on weekdays.
At this moment, when he heard Lu Yan say that Sima Yi was Zhuge Liang's biggest rival in his life, Yang Biao suddenly became more worried.
But Lu Yan always believed that Sima Yi's seizure of Cao Wei's power was actually a general trend.
The successors of Cao Wei were inferior to each other, and the subsequent nine-level Zhongzheng system completely allowed the family to monopolize the court, making it impossible for the Cao family to control and control the family.
This is the backlash from the aristocratic family, not just Sima Yi’s greed and power.
Based on the form shown in the middle and late period of Cao Wei, even if Sima Yi does not appear, there may be powerful ministers represented by other wealthy families.
But things are very different now. The aristocratic family is suppressed by Cao Cao and Lu Yan. As long as the imperial examination system is improved later, it will be difficult for the aristocratic family to form a monopoly again.
Without the huge resources and connections of the family behind him, what kind of storm could Sima Yi make by himself?
Moreover, Cao Cao’s next generation successor is Cao Ang.
When Cao Ang was with Lu Yan, he was deeply influenced by Lu Yan's "theory that aristocratic families are harmful", and he would never relax his suppression of aristocratic families.
The establishment of Taiyuan Academy and the management schools in various places will instill this kind of knowledge overtly and covertly, and everyone will be wary of the aristocratic family. With supervision from all walks of life, it will be even harder for the aristocratic family to gain power.
Therefore, regarding Sima Yi, although some precautions are still needed, there is no need to overdo it.
"Sima Yi is just a young boy now... You also know that the purpose of setting up military and political subjects is not only to teach knowledge, but also to establish an outlook on life and values." When Lu Yan said this, he couldn't help but think of it.
The all-powerful political commissars of later generations... immediately smiled and said, "Or are you always doubting your ability to teach and educate people?"
Yang Biao's old face that finally let go suddenly became serious again and said: "Nonsense, I have always believed in my ability to teach and educate people! Sima Yi is just a young man with some ability, how can I not control him?"
"
"That's enough!" Lu Yan spread his hands and said, "I believe that under your words and deeds, Sima Yi will definitely become a model figure like Zhuge Liang who is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, dedicated to the country and the family, and even to die!"
"I have devoted myself to death..." Yang Biao chewed on the words Lu Yan said unintentionally, and immediately said "tsk tsk" twice: "You usually seem to be ignorant and lazy, but I didn't expect that.
He can always say something that is unforgettable.”
The more he thought about it, the more Yang Biao felt that this sentence was in line with the character of the literati, so he sighed: "It's such a good aphorism. I will write it down when I get back and hang it in Taiyuan University, erecting another great aphorism for the students."
outlook on life, values..."
"I'll wipe it!" Lu Yan was shocked and immediately said with shame: "I've screwed Zhuge Liang for nothing again, I'm ashamed..."
...
In May, the fifth year of Jian'an.
Cao Cao personally ordered an army of 150,000 people.
Take Xi Zhicai, Xun You and others as eagles and dogs;
With Lu Yan, Zhao Yun, Xia Houyuan and others as minions, they stationed troops with white horses and swords pointing at Liyang and Jizhou. The whole world was shocked for a while!
The Yuan family in Hebei was even more panic-stricken and was shaken internally!
