Zang Hong stayed for one night and set off on the next day to cross the river.
Standing on the boat and watching the turbid river flowing eastward, Zang Hong once again remembered Dong Zhao's problem.
In fact, when he was in the northern border, he and Xun You occasionally discussed this issue. However, Xun You never had any good feelings for Yuan Shao, and said that Yuan Shao was generous on the outside and was taboo on the inside and could not tolerate others, so the old relatives and friends had the ability and influence.
Unconsciously became the object of his suspicion.
Zang Hong did not quite agree with Xun You's conclusion.
Although he became enemies with Yuan Shao, he did not feel that Yuan Shao was so unbearable.
If the leader of the party is a hypocrite, what has the party become?
While Zang Hong was pondering, the chat between two Hanoi County officials who were ordered to send him across the river attracted his attention.
A clerk said that when Yuan Shao burned the two palaces, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others jumped into the Yellow River here to avoid being humiliated by Yuan Shao. Now that Yuan Shao is at a loss, he would rather be humiliated than jump into the river.
Let’s, Zhao Zhong and others are not as good as that.
Another saying is that more than that, when the general He Jin fought with Yu Shu, He Jin hesitated, but Yu Shu was quick and straightforward and killed He Jin. From this we can see that these nobles and nobles just can't do it and can only speak big words.
, it is not possible to do things.
Zang Hong became angry as soon as he heard this.
Comparing Yuan Shao and He Jin was unacceptable.
Who is He Jin? A Nanyang butcher became a general because of his clinging to eunuchs. His talent and virtue were beyond recognition. Without Yuan Shao and others, he would be a waste and was played with by eunuchs.
Zang Hong shouted, his voice and expression were harsh, which scared the two officials so much that they were submissive and did not dare to refute.
But the disdain revealed in their eyes deeply hurt Zang Hong.
These people do not refute it, just because he has a higher official position, not because he is justified.
Thinking of Yuan Shao's performance, he was a little confident and had to avoid talking.
After crossing the river, Zang Hong marched all the way and arrived at Ping Leguan at noon.
A clerk received the news and waited outside the camp to take Zang Hong to the designated camp. Zang Hong asked his subordinates to set up camp and rushed to the imperial camp with two personal guards.
Liu Xiezheng and Shi Sun Rui and Han Sui discussed the review. When he saw Zang Hong, he nodded with satisfaction and signaled Zang Hong to take his seat.
Zang Hong thanked him and bowed to Shi Sun Rui and Han again. Although he did not deliberately, his attitude towards Shi Sun Rui was obviously more respectful. In addition to bowing, he also said a few words of admiration.
A hint of unhappiness flashed in Han Sui's eyes, and then he returned to calm, and there was no abnormality.
After glances, Zang Hong saw a list of his name on the Anhui Province, and he couldn't help but feel nervous and he became a little cautious.
After taking the seat, Liu Xie asked Zang Hong about some things on the road and signaled that Zang Hong could withdraw.
Zang Hong left the imperial camp, but did not leave, waiting far away.
After a while, Shi Sunrui and Han Sui walked out side by side, discussing what they were doing. When they left the camp, they saw Zang Hong waiting beside them, Han Sui nodded with a smile, turned over and took his personal guard away.
It's right.
Shi Sun Rui didn't say much, signaling Zang Hong to get on the horse and return to the camp together.
"Ziyuan is in Yanmen, can he receive a report from the court?" Shi Sun Rui asked casually.
“Everything should be there.”
"Then what do you think about the General of the Fu Army's defense of the autumn flood last year?"
Zang Hong understood it. "The General of the Fu Army assisted the local government in preventing the autumn flood, and worked hard and made great contributions." However, there was no respect in his words.
“That’s all?”
"I would also ask Mr. Sun to give advice."
Shi Sun Rui turned his head to look at Zang Hong and sighed. "If Yuan Shao surrounded Pengcheng and the general of the Fu Army rushed to the east, do you think he could pacify Guandong?"
Zang Hong kept silent.
"Ziyuan, you have been in the northern border for several years and have been tempered by yourself, and it is no longer the frivolous thing yesterday. You are not the master of the tigers and wolves of the past. You should no longer treat people with prejudice, especially the general of the army to guard against autumn floods,
It seems like a tiring task, but it is the foundation of the kingly way. The general of the Fu Army can be the first in the world and can be an example for all the troops. You and I must learn something."
Zang Hong nodded but said nothing.
Shi Sunrui frowned slightly and smacked his lips. "You are waiting for me here to discuss things with His Majesty, right? Did you see your name?"
Zang Hong smiled. He could not take the initiative to mention this matter, but he believed that Shi Sun Rui should understand his purpose.
Shi Sun Rui said slowly: "The emperor planned to rebuild the eight schools. He originally had your name, but now you don't have to think about it. I think you have to try it for a few more years."
Zang Hong was stunned and then said, "I would like to ask Mr. Sun to give advice."
"You have a good eye, but your eyes are not good." Shi Sun Rui raised his horse whip and sneered: "Although the world of Yanmen is vast, it has not allowed you to open your horizons and break your own barriers."
Zang Hong's face suddenly turned pale and then turned red again.
Shi Sun Rui's words were very heavy, as if he poured a basin of cold water on his head, extinguishing most of his ambitions.
He opened his mouth several times, but finally swallowed it back.
"Thank you, Shisun Gong, for your lesson."
Shi Sun Rui's color was slightly slower. "The eight schools are elites of the imperial guards and pillars of the country. Only a gentleman with a gentleman who is gentle and kind can do it. Ziyuan, a gentleman is cautious in his own self, and he should examine himself three times on the same day and should not slacke in one day."
"Here." Zang Hong bowed to understand.
Shi Sun Rui raised the horse whip and signaled Zang Hong not to follow him anymore, and took his personal guards away.
Zang Hong stood by the roadside, watching Shi Sun Rui and his party disappear in the distance, feeling lost.
Shi Sun Rui proposed to delete Zang Hong from the list of candidates for eight schools, which was somewhat surprised by Liu Xie.
After listening to Shi Sun Rui's explanation, Liu Xie thought about it for a long time.
Zang Hong has a deep prejudice, this is a fact.
But according to Shi Sun Rui's standards, I am afraid that I will not be able to collect the quota of eight schools.
Therefore, he suspected that Shi Sun Rui had another intention, which was to oppose the roundabout way of rebuilding the eight schools.
Although he did not explicitly say that these eight schools were the eight schools in Xiyuan, he was optimistic and summoned soldiers from all directions, which obviously included the intentional elements.
Emperor Xiaoling built the Xiyuan Army and wanted to seize military power from General He Jin. General He Jin was a relative of the foreigners, but behind him was the literati led by Yuan Shao. As a member of the literati, Shi Sun Rui had this.
Resistance is reasonable.
What's more, the dream of Shi Sun Rui and others is that power belongs to the Three Dukes. He himself is the hope of the Grand Marshal in charge of military power. How could he agree with the imperial court to rebuild the eight schools and the emperor in charge of the troops?
During the discussion, Shi Sun Rui was far less active than Han Sui.
Now that he put forward such a standard, it is equivalent to a difficult problem.
In terms of appearance, Zang Hong was handsome and had the appearance of ministers. In terms of virtue, Zang Hong was not righteous and famous all over the world. In terms of ability, Zang Hong also had great military achievements and was powerful in the northern border.
If Zang Hong could not rank in the eighth school because he had prejudice against the people of Xiliang, how many people could meet the requirements?
Apart from the people of Xiliang themselves, how many people have no prejudice against the people of Xiliang?
Even the people of Xiliang were not in harmony and couldn't stand each other.
For the list of the eight lieutenants, he had scratched his head for a long time. He finally picked out a few pretty good ones. Now that Shi Sun Rui is making such a fuss, he may be bad again.
"Shisun Gong has good intentions, so it is naturally good. But this standard is higher than selecting the third Gong, so it is probably a bit too strict." Liu Xie chuckled softly: "When talking about the prejudices against the people of Xiliang, it is probably more than Zang.
