Liu Xie and Xu Jing sat in the hall and greeted Xu Jing a few words according to the etiquette of young students visiting famous scholars.
Xu Jing's wife Liu heard the voice and rushed out to meet each other. She saw a young man sitting opposite Xu Jing, and a young man standing in the hall, but Kong Rong disappeared. Her son Xu Qin stood by at a loss, holding the hand in his hand.
I forgot to put down my wine and food, so I hurried forward and pulled Xu Qin aside.
"Who is the boy in the hall? Where is Kong Jijiu?"
"Heaven... Emperor." Xu Qin stammered.
"who?"
"The boy in the hall is... the emperor." Xu Qin swallowed and said with difficulty.
Liu had just taken the wine pot from Xu Qin's hand. After hearing this, his hand shook and the wine pot fell to the ground. With a "pop", the turbid wine splashed everywhere.
Liu stretched his neck and looked at Liu Xie who was talking to Xu Jing in the hall. "Qin'er, that... is really..."
Xu Qin nodded vigorously.
Liu sighed and said for a while: "The saint wore brown and jade, and returned to the simplicity and truth. It was indeed different. No wonder he could make trouble and revive the court in just a few years." She touched Xu Qin's head and bit her
Grit your teeth. "Qin'er, maybe this is your opportunity. Whether you can catch it depends on your own."
Xu Qin was puzzled and looked at Liu in a daze.
Liu didn't explain, and took Xu Qin to the back room, changed his clothes that were soaked with wine, returned to the kitchen, prepared tea again, and asked Xu Qin to send it.
"Just like usual, don't panic."
Xu Qin also reacted a little, nodded vigorously, and brought the tea to the hall.
Liu Xie and Xu Jing finished their polite conspiracy and immediately got to the point.
"I heard that Mr. Xu Zijiang presided over the Yuedan review together?"
Xu Jing's heart tightened and thought that what should come is still coming. But it doesn't matter. Since you want to act like respecting your teacher, I will let you experience the dignity of your teacher.
"As Your Majesty said."
"If there is a great chaos today, everything is in trouble. Among the talents that Mr. Husband commented on back then, can he prosper with the court?"
"Of course." Xu Jing straightened his chest, picked up the teacup, prepared to take a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then introduced the talents he had tasted to the emperor. "Your Majesty, please drink tea."
Liu Xie picked up the cup and immediately smelled the smell of onion and ginger.
Xu Jing is worthy of just returning from Yizhou, and even the tea he drank is full of the flavor of Yizhou.
Despite this, he pinched his nose and took a sip.
Xu Jing put down the teacup and talked about several people in one breath.
Liu Xie had never heard of any of them, but he heard a characteristic. Most of these people were from Runan in the early stage, almost all of them were from Ruying. Later, there were some from Yangzhou, Jiaozhou, and Yizhou, but the number was limited.
.
In addition, there is another common point: Xu Jing's appreciation of these people is similar, either pure or noble, and tends to be moral.
Unfortunately, with examples like Cao Cao in front of him, the morality in the comments of the characters is the Xue family's cat, which is not accurate.
Liu Xie ordered Zhuge Liang to make a record, read the list again, and then asked slowly. "What are these people's behaviors in the chaos in Shandong?"
Xu Jing, who was still polite just now, suddenly became silent.
What can those people do? Either they flee their families like him, or stay in the local area and rely on the family's power to protect themselves. If nothing unexpected happens, most of them will maintain a certain relationship with Yuan Shao.
Gu Xin
Now that Yuan Shao has admitted his fault, he wrote a letter to apologize, how good can those people be?
Seeing that Xu Jing was not speaking, Liu Xie asked again. "Whether some of his relatives and friends died in war or were abducted by the Xiliang army? Mrs. Tang was in the bookstore. If any relatives disappeared, she might ask her.
”
Xu Jing's face was flushed and he understood what Liu Xie meant.
What's the use of saying it so nicely? When the disaster comes, you are just running away and slaughtering and waiting for your family to fall into trouble.
"Your Majesty..." Xu Jing opened his mouth several times, but didn't know what to say.
Liu Xie laughed silently. "The prime minister comes from Guandong, and the general comes from Guanxi. When the world is in chaos, few Kanto prefectures and counties can protect the country and the people except for attacking each other. Fortunately, if peace is coming today, this kind of thing should not be done.
It appears again. Mr. may wish to recommend a few useful talents. The court should give them to the county and test their talents."
Xu Jing thought for a moment. "Did Your Majesty say to save the field?"
"Including divination, but not just divination." Liu Xie said calmly: "The purpose of divination is to achieve the kingly way. If you do not divination, you can achieve the kingly way, and even better, the court will not object."
He smiled. "Sir, since he is in the Imperial Academy, he should know that the main topic of the conference being prepared is how to achieve the kingly way, not to pass the field."
Xu Jing looked at Liu Xie. "Your Majesty, can anyone say that if someone supports the kingly way but opposes Du Tian?"
"Of course, otherwise why should the court mobilizes troops and hold a lecture?"
"If there are many different opinions and each one sticks to the point, how can we judge the truth and eliminate the false and retain the truth?"
Liu Xie raised a finger. "First of all, see if he is worthy of what he has learned and whether he is worthy of his conscience. As long as he speaks with heart and does not succumb to others, it doesn't matter even if he is biased."
He chuckled. "Of course, it is difficult to draw bones to draw tigers and skins. This is only known by oneself. Others cannot speculate, otherwise it will become a crime to be punished. What do you think?"
Xu Jing's mouth twitched, and it was neither right to agree, nor did he not agree.
He has presided over the Yuedan Review and tasted countless people. He naturally knew that this seemed simple, but it was extremely difficult to do it in fact, or even impossible.
How many people can speak with their hearts and not be affected by external interests at all?
Liu Xie raised his second finger. "Secondly, it depends on whether his argument can withstand the doubts of others. If his argument is not clear, if his argument is reasonable and well-founded and able to withstand the refutation of others, it will naturally have the value of argument.
If you just make a fuss and don’t allow others to make a statement, then you won’t listen.”
Xu Jing has a slight jaw.
He agreed with this.
The probability of not defining the truth and not daring to face other people's doubts is a fallacy.
"But what if it makes sense?"
Liu Xie raised his third finger. "Leave it for facts to verify. If it can be explained and withstand the refutation of the people, then choose a place to try it. If it can succeed, it is right. If it cannot succeed, it depends on not doing well enough.
, it still can't be done at all, so make corrections."
Liu Xie smiled. "If someone fails to succeed in the trial again and again, but insists that he can achieve the kingly way, will the sir agree with him?"
Xu Jing's eyes flashed. "But realizing the kingly way is not a day's achievement, and it is inevitable that he will be constrained by others. The Master's rule of Lu did not succeed."
"The court did not expect to achieve his merits in one battle and be prepared for a long-term debate, otherwise it would not only be trial-ready in Shandong."
Liu Xie withdrew his finger, picked up the teacup again, and took a sip.
"Holding a lecture is to focus on the second point. When speaking, the court intends to choose its main point to announce it, which not only allows more people to know that the court has a sense of listening to both sides, but also gives more people the opportunity to understand these things
Views, evaluate these views, eliminate their absurdity, and choose their available ones.”
Liu Xie raised his head and looked at Xu Jing with a smile. "Everyone is burning with firewood. Are you interested in adding a handful of firewood to make a new comment on Yuedan?"
