"We have heard that the general is good at governing the Zuo Zhuan. Don't you know the meaning of the Spring and Autumn Annals? There is no better way to seek help from the princes than King Qin. Today, the emperor is in the west and is held hostage by Dong Zhuo. If the general uses his strength to eliminate the thieves and help the Han Dynasty, he will be able to compete with Han and Geng.
Even worse."
"..." Gai Jun's pupils shrank suddenly. He heard the deep meaning in Chen Ji's words. Han Xin committed suicide and died, while Geng Yan died a good death. Their endings were completely different. Was the other party warning me?
Although Xun Yu agreed with Chen Ji's move, he still wanted to avoid making the atmosphere too tense. He called Chen Qun and said, "General, this is Chen Changwen, Chen Jun's son. I have a close acquaintance with him. His long writing is upright, elegant, and talented. He is the best in this county."
An outstanding person."
"I've seen Gai Hussar." Chen Qun bowed first.
Gai Jun calmed down and laughed loudly: "Chen Changwen is the crown prince of young scholars in Yingchuan. I have heard of his great name for a long time. When I saw him today, his reputation is well-deserved. I am so happy to find Changwen alone."
Who is Gai Jun? He is one of the most powerful people in the world. How could Chen Qun be completely unmoved when he praised and flattered him? However, his face was extremely calm. He bowed again and said, "General, you are too complimentary..."
Taishan collapsed in front of him without changing his expression. Gai Jun nodded repeatedly as he saw this, he was a child of the most powerful family in the world. If he comes from a poor family, no matter how talented he is, he will not be as calm and composed as Chen Qun.
Gai Jun's impression of Chen Qun was that he was the "notorious" inventor of the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System in history. The Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System was a far-reaching system that directly caused the situation in the Jin Dynasty when the top-ranking families had no poor families and the low-ranking families had no power.
political situation, although Chen Qun may not have had such thoughts when he formulated it.
Gai Jun believes that this time and space has its own existence, and it will be difficult for the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System to appear again.
Xun Yu brought in a second person. Gai Jun had noticed this person for a long time. He was thirty-two or thirty-year-old, seven feet tall, thin in appearance, and had ordinary facial features. Together they gave people a sense of harmony, but his cheeks
He was pale and his lips were ashy. If he was not suffering from a serious illness, he was an addicted to wine and sex. Since Gai Jun had learned from Xun Yu that the other party would not be cured and he had to be examined, he must be the latter.
When Gai Jun saw this person today, he realized that he was addicted to alcohol and sex, far beyond Xun Yu's description and his own imagination. Xu You, who was known as a prodigal, was really not worth mentioning in front of him. Among the people Gai Jun knew, Xu You
Only Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty may be comparable to him, and Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty died at the age of thirty-four.
Xun Yu said again: "General, this is the strange man I recommended to you before, Yingyang Opera Zhi is the one. Zhicai is proficient in the art of war, has deep calculations, and has the wisdom to consider thousands of miles. He will definitely be able to help the general."
Gai Jun said kindly: "Zhicai seems to have a slight health problem?"
"I have been weak since I was a child, and I don't know how to maintain good health. Many doctors said that I am sad to be in my forties." When these words came out of Xi Zhicai's mouth, they did not make him feel sad at all. Instead, his voice was clear and his laughter was frequent.
Chen Ji, Chen Qun and his son next to them all frowned when they heard this, obviously not liking this person's style.
Gai Jun's smile faded and he spoke righteously: "If Gu Tongwen has known him for more than ten years and has known him as a human being, he said that Zhicai has a good and ordinary nature, which is definitely true. Since Zhicai possesses superhuman wisdom, isn't it a gift from heaven?
It’s too much to not cherish the body so much.”
Xi Zhicai saluted cheerfully and said: "I sincerely follow the general's teachings."
Will he really listen? Gai Jun doesn't think so. A determined person like the other party will never be persuaded by a few words. But before he left Luoyang, he sent an envoy to Nanyang. Yes, he wanted to invite him.
The person is the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing, who has successfully arrived in Luoyang.
In the past, Cai Wan's condition became worse and worse, and she coughed up blood every day. Gai Jun was so anxious that he braved the freezing weather and went to Nanyang to invite Zhang Zhongjing to see a doctor for her. Although Zhang Zhongjing was not yet thirty years old at the time, he used astonishing methods to successfully cure Cai Wan's terminal illness.
Cai Yong thought deeply about the kindness of his daughter and knew that he had ambitions to become an official. He went up and down to find a place for him to be a filial and honest man. Later, Zhang Zhongjing promoted Xiaolian to a doctor and sent him to Guiyang County in Jingnan. He served in several counties in the past few years.
, his official career was smooth, and his last term was as the magistrate of Qianshi County in Nanjun. However, affected by the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he abandoned his official position and returned home, concentrating on studying medicine. He has been in office for seven years now.
Gai Jun invited Zhang Zhongjing not just to treat Xi Zhicai, but because Zhang Zhongjing was an honest official and had superb medical skills. No matter from every aspect, he was a talent worth recruiting.
Later, he met Xun Yue, Du Xi, and Zhao Yan under the introduction of Xun Yu. During this period, Gai Jun not only showed the majesty that a monarch should have, but also showed a moderate thirst for talents. I believe that in Yingchuan Junjie
In his eyes, the image should not be bad. However, he was a little disappointed that there was no "ghost talent" Guo Jia among them. As early as when Xun Yu recommended talents to him, Guo Jia's name was not included. Gai Jun resisted and did not ask,
I don't know if he is not famous at this time or if he has already surrendered to Yuan Shao.
Gai Jun in turn introduced to everyone in Yingchuan the civil servants headed by Shi Jiaxu, the head of the Hussar General's office, and Bo Yangjun, the head of the Bingzhou governor's department. Gai Jun nicknamed Jia Xu "Mingzhe Baoshen Jia Wenhe", "a low-key man"
"Jia Wenhe", from this we can know who he is, he is like Gai Jun's shadow, always standing behind him, never forming cliques, and has no reaction to the arrival of the Yingchuan people, and is even happy to see it happen.
Yang Jun is different. He is not alone. He represents the Hanoi scholars within Gai Jun's system. They just recently took advantage of Gai Jun's opportunity to suppress the Bingzhou native faction and jumped into the center of power in northern Xinjiang. Although their power is large, their foundation is
But it is not stable. Since the disaster of the Party, Yingchuan has been a place that has attracted the attention of the world, and outstanding people have emerged in large numbers. Today, the Yingchuan scholars, led by Chen Taiqiuzi Chen Ji, and assisted by Xun Yu, have launched a large-scale invasion, which will undoubtedly threaten the Hanoi scholars.
people's interests.
Should he unite with Yingchuan to steal the power of Jinyang? Or should he unite with Jinyang to resist the invasion of Yingchuan? There are advantages and disadvantages to both. Yang Jun thought a lot for a moment, but he greeted everyone in Yingchuan with a smile on his face.
The two sides exchanged a few polite words, and Gai Jun then invited everyone to the tent to sit and discuss scriptures, mainly Zuo Zhuan.
Gai Jun has been reading "Zuo Zhuan" for more than seventeen years. It is no exaggeration to say that he has memorized it every time, is very professional in his studies, and his self-confidence may not be inferior to that of famous Confucian scholars of the time. However, Chen Ji's views and remarks left him quite speechless.
Feeling this, I couldn't help but murmur in my heart sourly: "In the past, there were great Confucian kings who liked to read extensively but did not abide by the chapters and sentences. Now there is Lu Zhi who likes to study and refine but does not abide by the chapters and sentences. The method of learning is to recite the chapters and sentences and annotate them, even if it is one hundred thousand or one hundred thousand
A thousand words, what good is it for learning?..."
The full name of "Zuo Zhuan" is "Chun Qiu Zuo Shi Zhuan". "Chun Qiu" is a chronicle of the State of Lu revised by Confucius. It records the period from the first year of Lu Yin (722 BC) to the fourteenth year of Lu Ai Gong (481 BC).
Because the "Spring and Autumn" is too concise and comprehensive, "Zuo Zhuan" is a commentary on it. Since we talk about history, it is inevitable to talk about the present. People quote the words of the "Spring and Autumn" to describe the present and express their own opinions.
Everyone had strange theories, and Gai Jun was satisfied. At this time, two hours had passed without realizing it.
After all, Chen Ji was over fifty years old. He was on the road again and again, and after repeated debates, his energy was a little low. The tired look in his eyes could not be concealed. He said with a smile: "The general is indeed a disciple of Ma Taiwei. He was called "Wu Qi" by He Boqiu.
"Talent", from today's perspective, it is worthy of the name."
Gai Jun smiled bitterly and waved his hands and said, "What Mr. He said really makes Gu Wuji feel ashamed. It's funny that I used to sit in a well and look at the sky. Now when I talk to Mr. He, I realize that I am just a frog at the bottom of the well."
Chen Ji shook his head and said: "The general's words are wrong. If you don't have the ambition to become a doctor, you can read the scriptures and understand the truth clearly. In today's world, there is so much chaos that doctors are useless. Only those who apply what they have learned and put it into practice can achieve success.
"The so-called doctor refers to a person who teaches the classics from the Imperial Academy. It is usually used as a metaphor for a person who devotes himself to studying the classics.
Gai Jun laughed loudly and said: "Chen Jun is too self-effacing. Who dares to say that a doctorate is useless in today's world? Not to mention others, the Hongnong Yang family started from Guanxi Confucius Yang (Zhen) Bo, and his family studied Ouyang Shangshu.
, no one can match it. Everyone in the four generations of great-grandfather and grandson has been a doctor, thus leading to the fourth generation and the four princes. The Yuan family of Runan started from Yuan (an) Shaogong, and his family studied "Meng's Book of Changes", which is also the best in the world. This is
, the foundation of the Four Generations and Five Dukes. He Jun and Naifu Taiqiu are also doctors, respected by the world. If a doctor applies to him, I will wake up from a dream, and the officials will be chosen at will."
"..." Facing the olive branch thrown by Gai Jun, Chen Ji smiled and said nothing. Although Gai Jun was outstanding in talent and powerful, he always ignored him regarding King Qin and refused to reveal his feelings. Chen Ji made up his mind.
, If Gai Jun does not save the emperor, he will not be an official. This is a matter of principle and cannot be changed. As for his son Chen Qun, he does not intend to interfere.
Chen Ji's attitude of resolutely not becoming an official and choosing to live in seclusion made Gai Jun a little disappointed. The other party was a world-renowned celebrity, and his reputation was not inferior to that of Lu Zhi. If he could be recruited under his command, he would surely make Yuzhou scholars Yun Hejing follow. But Chen Ji
Ji thought, Gai Jun was really powerless. No matter how weak Dong Zhuo was, he would still be as thin as a camel. He was pushed to the limit. Who can be sure that there is no danger of death? It would be better to leave it to the scholars of the Chang'an court. If it really develops like history,
Maybe I can take over Guanzhong without any effort.
At this time, it was meal time. Gai Jun calmed down and made an exception to eat before the soldiers. He had people serve wine and food and had a feast for everyone. Unfortunately, although the food in the military camp was not lacking in meat, it was a bit monotonous. Even Gai Jun did not eat it.
There are no delicacies from the mountains and seas. As for wine, don’t mention it when Gai Jun was an alcoholic in the past. Since he was disciplined by his wife Cai Wan, the aroma of fine wine can no longer be smelled in the military camp. They make crude rice wine and some fruit wine.
Seeing the humble food on the food table, everyone in Yingchuan couldn't help but look at each other, and they were shocked. They must know that Gai Jun is the hussar general who leads Bingzhou Mu, has thirteen counties, and has tens of thousands of soldiers, making him the most powerful general in the world.
People with authority. Do the other parties really only eat these things on weekdays, or is it just a show to show their simplicity?
The people in Yingchuan finally looked at Xun Yu, who had been following Gai Jun for some time and should be able to understand the details. Xun Yu picked up his chopsticks and said with a smile: "Do you dislike the simple food?"
