Chapter 158 'The Ode to the Parrot'

Chapter 158 "Ode to Parrot"

Mi Heng.

People from Pingyuan County and other counties.

The biggest troll in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Compared with him, even Chen Lin and Kong Rong are much cuter.

Not to mention Cao Cao, even Liu Biao, who always treated scholars with respect and dignity, couldn't stand this guy's bad mouth.

In the future, after Cao Cao said, "You are a proud son, you can kill him alone like a bird with mouse ears. Considering that this person has a false reputation, people near and far will say that he cannot be tolerated alone, so I will give it to Liu Biao now, what will happen to him?" Liu Biao could not bear to be disturbed.

Send him to Huang Zu.

Then Huang Zu, who had a bad temper, chopped him up.

Of course, Mi Heng has not yet been sent to Jingzhou by Cao Cao. He is living very well in Xuchang, just walking around and so on...

The file that Lu Xun handed to He Yan now stated that Mi Heng often indulged himself and appeared disheveled on the street after drinking with his friends, disturbing the people.

The "Han Code", that is, the "Nine Chapter Code" is generally inherited from the "Fa Jing" compiled and usurped by the Legalist Li Kui, and there are six chapters in the "Fa Jing", namely "Stealing the Law", "Thief"

Laws", "Internet Laws", "Catching Laws", "Miscellaneous Laws" and "Special Laws". Among them, "Miscellaneous Laws" clearly stipulates "being cunning, crossing the city, playing games, borrowing fakes, and being dishonest".

The punishments for the seven crimes of "Lewdness, Extravagance, and Exceeding the Rules". Mi Heng often harasses people on the street. Naturally, he has committed the crime of "light cunning".

According to the law, Mi Heng should have been imprisoned and tortured.

However, Mi Heng had a good relationship with Kong Rong and was well-known himself. When the officials in Xuchang saw that he had committed a crime, they did not dare to pursue him. They only dared to come back and secretly write it on the file for the superior to deal with.

The previous Xuchang orders certainly did not dare to offend Mi Heng and Kong Rong, so they delayed the case again and again. This naturally encouraged Mi Heng's arrogance and made him more and more unbridled.

"You are Zhengping..."

Cao Pi, who was eager to go over and beat the opponent up just now, instantly shrank when he heard it was Mi Heng.

"I heard my father mention him several times. He often said that this man is talented, but his mouth is really bad, and even he can't stand it."

Cao Pi advised He Yan: "Don't get involved with this kind of person. Dad can't even deal with him. What can you do?"

"Um."

He Yan put away Mi Heng's files and said, "Let's put his affairs aside first."

Cao Pi and Lu Xun both thought that He Yan's so-called "let go" was to suppress it like the previous Xuchang orders. However, just a few days later, He Yan asked someone to hand a letter to Mi Heng.



"Marquis Shen?"

When you received He Yan's letter, Mi Heng was holding a bamboo slip in one hand and playing with a bouquet of chrysanthemums in the other.

"How come this pretender of the Cao family came to see me when he had time?"

Mi Heng was extremely rude as soon as he opened his mouth and directly vented his resentment towards Cao Cao on He Yan.

"He is the most popular person today and is known as a hussar in the world. Why should Zhengping be angry with a young man like him?"

There was an old man sitting next to Mi Heng. Naturally, this was Kong Rong, the only person Mi Heng could look at.

Kong Rong did not know the relationship between He Yan and Xinxue. If he knew that Xinxue was created by He Yan, Kong Rong would probably jump right away and follow Ni Heng in scolding He Yan.

But now Kong Rong obviously doesn't know about this "new top secret" and is still helping He Yan speak.

The biggest difference between Mi Heng and Kong Rong is that Kong Rong is not as aggressive as Mi Heng. He is always targeting Cao Cao, who has now become a "Han thief".

What's more, when Kong Rong was young, he had received favors from He Yan's grandfather He Jin. He Jinzheng had appointed him as a general's vassal, promoted him to a high rank, and moved him to serve as a censor. In the eyes of Kong Rong, who valued "relative privacy"

, naturally there is no reason to conflict with He Yan.

"Oh, brother Wenju (cousin of Kong Rong)! That's wrong!"

Mi Heng pointed to He Yan's name on the letter and cursed: "Did Brother Wenju forget that he killed Yuan Lang?"

"You were so fierce at such a young age. How could you have done it in the past?"

"Even if he is really a hussar alive, he will only become a butcher's knife for a gangster! The more complacent such people are, the more useless they will be to the court!"

Mi Heng obviously looked down upon He Yan very much, and He Yan's achievements were not even mentioned in his eyes.

Kong Rong saw that Mi Heng was so resistant to He Yan, so he put He Yan's letter aside and pretended not to see it.

The two of them also left the topic of He Yan and turned to an incident at yesterday's court meeting——

"That old man Yang Biao actually reported to the emperor yesterday that he had discovered a method of manure that could increase grain production?"

This time it was Kong Rong's turn to get angry: "This is nonsense! How can filth provide food? It's really nonsense!"

Since the end of this year's spring plowing ceremony, the old school represented by Kong Rong and the new school represented by Yang Biao can be said to have completely formed a deadly feud. Even though the relationship between the two was relatively harmonious before, when it comes to the dispute over orthodoxy

When such a big event happens, all the friendships in the past are no longer important.

"New learning..."

Mi Heng, who does not live by the study of classics, is actually not resistant to new studies.

"I have actually read the "New Interpretation of Zhouyi" by Hua Xin, the "New Interpretation of Mencius" by Chen Qun, and the "New Interpretation of Shangshu" by Yang Biao."

"Among them, "New Interpretation of Mencius" and "New Interpretation of Shangshu" are all trivial and can't be called a classic. But "New Interpretation of Zhouyi"..."

Mi Heng picked off a chrysanthemum petal and put it to his mouth and ate it directly: "Only the New Interpretation of Zhouyi can be regarded as the essence. Whether it is the eight-character mantra of "investigating things to gain knowledge, and integrating knowledge and action" or the theory of abolishing prophecies

, the idea of ​​using the alternation of the sun and the moon to explain a solar eclipse is actually a groundbreaking statement!"

Now it was Kong Rong's turn to be unhappy.

"What essence? It's obviously all dregs!"

As a defender of imperial power who was a product of Confucian classics, Kong Rong would never allow anyone to offend his own inverse scale!

But by chance, he met Mi Heng...

Mi Heng was not to be outdone: "Wenju, you and I are just discussing knowledge, why should you be sullen?"

"Even if the new learning is rubbish, shouldn't we even be able to discuss it?"

"What's there to discuss?"

Kong Rong stared: "It's just a solar eclipse that happened to happen to them! And maybe that solar eclipse was God blaming Cao Cao for causing Han thieves like Yang Biao to cause trouble to the Han Dynasty!"

Mi Heng saw that Kong Rong seemed to want to argue with him, so he immediately stopped playing with chrysanthemums and sat up directly to confront Kong Rong: "Brother Wenju, this time can be said to be a warning from heaven, but the last solar eclipse

What about? And what about last time?"

"In the "New Interpretation of Zhouyi" published by Xinxue, all the celestial phenomena recorded by Han Dynasty historians are listed! They do have rules to follow. Can't Brother Wenju see it?"

Mi Heng's words undoubtedly deeply hurt Kong Rong.

The New Learning has been around for so long, how could Kong Rong not read the classics of the New Learning?

But the more he looked at it, the more frightened Kong Rong became.

Because the explanation of the solar eclipse is obtained by summarizing the facts and laws, there is no fault at all!

The political opinions of Chen Qun and Yang Biao are also incomparably in line with the pursuits of the world's aristocratic families. The fact that those Confucian classics families rushed to study the new learning, integrate it, and then add personal goods to the new learning is all proof.

Compared with the "centralization of power by the emperor" that Kong Rong had always insisted on, the content advocated by the New Learning was undoubtedly more in line with this era. How could Kong Rong not feel hesitant?

Since he couldn't beat him, Kong Rong simply turned a blind eye. Anyone who mentioned the new learning in front of him would be scolded by Kong Rong.

Today, when Kong Rong told what happened in the court, he originally wanted Ni Heng to help scold Yang Biao a few times, so that he could vent his anger. Unexpectedly, Mi Heng actually "betrayed" him directly?

Mi Heng was also a little disappointed with Kong Rong's attitude.

"This is wrong!"

"The great Confucians throughout the ages, as far away as Mencius and Xunzi, as recently as Ma Rong and Zheng Xuan, all adhere to the concept of "ruling the world through classics" and are constantly pursuing changes to educate the world!"

"Why are you so stubborn when you get to Wenju? Is it because the new learning is not in the interests of the Kong family, and Wenju has to give up the morality in his heart?"

Ni Heng didn't use any profanity in his words, but every word he spoke was pouring salt on Kong Rong's wounds.

Now what Mi Heng is saying is, "The attitudes of other sages towards the study of Confucian classics were all sacrificing one person for the sake of the world. Why can't we even talk about it when we come to you, Kong Rong?"

"Is it possible that when it comes to your own interests, you, Kong Rong, become a double-standard dog? Start to turn a blind eye to the value of new learning, and instead hold on to your own one-third of an acre and bark?"

Kong Rong naturally heard what Mi Heng meant.

Ni Heng actually always spoke with a gun and a stick, and Kong Rong didn't take it to heart. But this time when he mentioned Kong Rong's painful feet, Kong Rong couldn't bear it anymore!

"You are Zhengping!"

Kong Rong shouted loudly.

"Don't forget! This world still belongs to the Han Dynasty! Do you still remember your duty as a minister?"

Mi Heng sneered: "Of course the world belongs to the Han Dynasty! But if there is something wrong with the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty must be cured!"

"heal?"

Kong Rong pointed to the sky with one hand: "How to cure? Let Xinxue come to the doctor? Are Cao Cao and Yang Biao's gang here to heal the Han Dynasty? They are clearly here to seize the Han Dynasty's crown prince!"

"Wenju, when did you become so extreme?"

Mi Heng did not agree with Kong Rong's words: "If you take a good look at the new learning and understand the new learning without prejudice, you will naturally find that what the new learning advocates is definitely not to recommend a "sage" or another "sage" like Wang Mang.

The "Emperor" replaced the Han Dynasty!"

"How can that kind of filth enter my eyes?"

When Kong Rong saw that Mi Heng was still speaking for Xinxue, he was almost on the verge of exploding!

Mi Heng also glared at Kong Rong: "The Kong Beihai who is so afraid of fighting is not the Kong Beihai I know! I regard you as a friend because you are different from other ordinary people! But now, now you are different from those individuals

What's the difference between warlords from aristocratic families who bully the weak and fear the strong?"

"the difference?"

Hearing Mi Heng's words, Kong Rong was completely shocked: "The difference is that I still allow you, a person with a "mad disease", to eat at home!"

Even if you raise a dog, you still know its owner! Mi Heng is siding with Xin Xue. Isn’t this betrayal?

Mi Heng heard that Kong Rong actually broke his skin. Although his heart was like a knife, he still said: "Kong Rong! Do you really think I care about your bowls of rice? What a joke!"

"Then get out!"

"Kong Rong, from now on, we will never have any contact with each other!"

The two people, who were both angry, snarled at each other again, and Mi Heng even said harsh words: "In the future, your Kong family will definitely be extinct! The sage has been cut off! Sooner or later, your ancestors in the previous life will be exhumed.

No rest for eternity!"

When Kong Rong heard this, his face turned red from suppressing his emotions. He pointed at Mi Heng and was speechless for a long time.

"What do you mean? No wonder Confucius was running around the countries like a bereaved dog in the past. How could you imagine that your ancestor was probably just like you, a coward who only knew how to touch the ground with his hands?"

This made Ni Heng so angry that he even dared to scold Cao Cao, let alone Confucius who had been dead for who knows how many years?

Although Mi Heng also knew that Confucius was not a coward, his temper got so bad that even if Zhou Gong came in front of him, he would dare to spit on him directly!

When Kong Rong heard that Mi Heng never left his ancestor, he screamed strangely and rushed over: "Mi Heng! You beast!"

There is a saying that unless the knife falls on you, you will never know how painful it is to be cut.

Kong Rong had seen Mi Heng scolding Cao Cao before, and the harder he scolded, the happier he would be, but he never thought about how he would feel if Mi Heng's mouth was blasting at him.

Seeing that Kong Rong was about to approach Mi Heng, Kong Rong suddenly stopped moving and huddled on the ground clutching his chest in extreme pain.

"What? This won't work?"

Mi Heng was still talking, but his eyes were full of worry, and he wanted to step forward and help Kong Rong up.

"Get away!"

When Kong Rong saw Mi Heng coming closer, he pushed Mi Heng away with a strong breath: "Get out!"

Mi Heng took a deep breath: "If that's the case, then you and I don't have to see each other again in the future!"

In the end, Mi Heng softened up.

Otherwise, if he had just said a few words at this moment, Kong Rong might have confessed on the spot.

After leaving the Confucius Mansion, Ni Heng was still depressed and didn't know where to go in the future.

It is true that Mi Heng himself is a famous person, but because of his mouth, almost no one wants to see him.

Moreover, Mi Heng himself has a very high vision and believes that except for the two of them, the rest of the people in Xuchang are nothing more than chickens and dogs, and they are not worthy of being associated with Mi Heng!

Of these two people, one is Kong Rong, who just broke up, and the other is now the rising star Yang Xiu.

"Do you want to go to Dezu's place?"

Mi Heng thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't make a decision.

"Huh?"

Just when Mi Heng was confused, he discovered that there was actually a letter hidden in his luggage.

"Pingyuan Miheng personally opens it."

When you saw the words written on He Yan's envelope, Mi Heng felt a little ripple in his heart.

After opening the letter, Mi Heng realized that this was not an ordinary letter.

No greetings, no communication.

Yes, there is only one fluently written Han Fu——

"Only the spiritual bird of the Western Regions is here, showing its natural beauty."

"The wonderful quality of the body's gold essence is combined with the brilliance of the fire virtue."

"People who are eloquent and articulate by nature are smart enough to recognize opportunities."

"..."

The first few sentences of this Han Fu made Mi Heng slowly let go of his contempt and began to read it seriously.

As he read, Mi Heng discovered the problem——

"Isn't this Han Fu written by me?"

good.

This Han Fu written by He Yan for Mi Heng is actually the "Ode on Parrot" written by Mi Heng himself a few years later at Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia!
