Han Dao world

Chapter 934 Insinuation
When he first read the preface of "Biography of Danggu" and understood the cause of the Danggu incident, Liu Xie was shocked even though he was mentally prepared.

He knew that the Danggu incident was caused by Emperor Huan's teacher Zhou Fu, but he didn't know that Fang Zhi and Zhou Fu were both from Qinghe, which caused heavy losses to the Ruying people and finally broke with the imperial court. Infighting.

After reading the preface carefully, there are a few things that he doesn't quite understand.

One is that Zhou Fu can become the teacher of Marquis Liwu, even if he is not particularly outstanding in academics and character, he must not be too bad.Such a person, with such an opportunity, is it too much to be promoted to Minister?

At least this reward is insignificant compared to Hu Guang and others who were granted the title of marquis by virtue of their support.

The second is that Fang Zhi claims to be the rules of the world, so is this the quality of his disciples and guests?It doesn't look much better than Zhou Fu's.

More importantly, from the preface, he couldn't see anything wrong with Zhou Fu, nor could he see anything special about Fang Zhi.

Except for the so-called politeness.

But is it not the basic quality of a Confucian scholar to be courteous in movement and stillness? When did it become a commendable advantage?
Is it because there are too many scholars and hypocrites in the world, so it seems that Fang Zhi's movement and courtesy are precious?
Liu Xie didn't believe this.He believed that there was another mystery in it, but it was not mentioned in the preface.

He wanted to look for Fang Zhi's biography or resume, but he couldn't find it.Lan Tai didn't have a biography of Fang Zhi, but he did have experience.It can be seen from the resume that Fang Zhi became an official with a virtuous name, and his official career was prosperous.

Later he thought of one thing, since Fang Zhi was from Qinghe, he must be buried in Qinghe.With his reputation, there should be a tombstone, so he sent someone to Qinghe to check.

In the end, I did find Fang Zhi's tomb, and copied the tomb text.

Unexpectedly, the person who wrote the inscription for Fang Zhi was an acquaintance, Cai Yan's father Cai Yong.

As expected of being the number one master of inscriptions in the Han Dynasty, Cai Yan's works can be seen everywhere.However, thinking of his emotions when he wrote the tombstone for Guo Linzong, the credibility of Fang Zhi's inscription dropped a notch immediately.

Therefore, Liu Xie didn't pay much attention to this inscription, which was full of praise words but few specific deeds.

Taking advantage of Sun Rui and Jushou's arrival, he wanted to ask them about the difference between Fang Zhi and Zhou Fu.

He also didn't care much about Jushou's voicing.

Even if Fang Zhiqing, Zhou Fuzhuo, Zhou Fu regards the emperor as his minister, it seems that he can't affect Fang Zhi.

Fang Zhi was already Henan Yin at that time, and later became Gongqing.Compared with his official career, Zhou Fu is not worth mentioning, not even qualified to be Fang Zhi's opponent.

Facing Liu Xie's question, Shi Sun Rui gave an explanation.

Although Shangshu is a humble official, he is a close minister of the emperor.Zhou Fu was both the emperor's teacher and a close minister. He had a great influence on Emperor Xiaohuan.If Emperor Xiaohuan, like His Majesty, chose to cooperate with the ministers of the foreign courts instead of confronting them, and did not use the inner courts to suppress the outer courts, perhaps the matter would not be so serious.

For example, now, let alone your Majesty promoting a teacher to be a minister, even if you promote a woman to be a minister, I don't mind.

Liu Xie couldn't help but laugh at Shi Sun Rui's answer.

This old slicker, seemingly frank, actually meant something else.

After all, he still needs to rely heavily on the ministers of the foreign court, and stop doing the same thing that the inner court suppresses the outer court.

"The internal court and the external court have their own division of labor, and indeed there should be no infringement." Liu Xie smiled, and calmly countered Shi Sun Rui. "It's just that if the outer court is full of gentlemen like Fang Zhi, I'm afraid they won't be able to support the country of this big man. If they can really act with integrity and loyalty, why would there be a domineering general who has ruled for twenty years?"

Shi Sun Rui's expression was a little embarrassed.

Ju Shou pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.

Fang Zhi's character may be noble, but his talent is really limited.If one considers that he has worked with a domineering general like Liang Ji for more than ten years and still has a magnanimous official career, his moral character may have to be compromised.

It's not speculative, but they finished talking about "Danggu Biography" without a few words.

Sun Rui and Jushou got out of the account and walked side by side.

Shi Sunrui looked solemn and said nothing.

Ju Shou was a little restless, and instinctively followed Shi Sun Rui forward.

The two left the camp, and seeing Wang Duan being called in, Shi Sun Rui's eyes flickered slightly. "Let's go to Jizhou Yinfang to have a look."

Ju Shou had nothing to do, so he responded casually. "Dare not to obey."

-

Wang Duan entered the tent tremblingly, without even daring to lift his head, he knelt down in front of Liu Xie.

"Marquis Duting, Chen Duan, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Liu Xie glanced at him, and said lightly: "Cousin, get up, my family, there is no need to be formal."

Wang Duan felt relieved and stood up again.

"How have you been these past few years?" Liu Xie put down the pen in his hand, waved his hand again, and signaled the minister in charge of recording to go out.

Shangshu put down his pen, got up and went out.

Wang Duan grinned, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your concern, everything is fine."

"tell me the story."

Wang Duan spoke happily.After returning from Chang'an, he buried his father, inherited the title, and took on the heavy responsibility of the family.Although it was hard work, it finally went well.In the past few years, the family has added children, and the industry has also increased a lot, which can be regarded as prosperous.

"Especially in the past two years, thanks to His Majesty's Tianwei, no one dared to bully my family. I married a wife the year before last. She was a woman from the Zhang family in Xiangcheng, and she gave birth to a son last year, so I have a successor."

Looking at the happy Wang Duan, Liu Xie felt awkward.

Marrying a woman from the Zhang family of Zhao State makes you so happy?You are a dignified relative of the state, if it is really useful, which family in the world cannot marry a woman?

"Is the Zhang family in Xiangcheng, Zhao Guo, a famous family?"

Wang Duan smiled triumphantly. "Your Majesty, the Zhang family in Xiangcheng of Zhao State is naturally a famous family, and the grandfather Zhang Boda, from the official to the Taiwei, is a famous official in the Xiaoshang Dynasty."

The more Liu Xie watched, the more angry he became, and he didn't want to perfunctory with Wang Duan any longer.

"Since you are a famous family, the dowry must be quite a lot, right? When you got married, did many people come to congratulate you, and there were a lot of congratulatory gifts? How much land do you have now?"

Hearing the word land, the smile on Wang Duan's face suddenly froze.

No matter how dull he is, he can see that the emperor is not in a good mood.

Reminiscent of what the new Handan Commander Zhuge Liang was doing, cold sweat broke out on Wang Duan's forehead.

"Too many, can't remember?" Liu Xie's face sank.

"Chen...Chen..." Wang Duan stammered, not knowing what to say.

Liu Xie snorted heavily: "The war is imminent, and it's time to employ people, so you should stay in the line. As for your family's land, Zhuge Liang will help you count it."

Wang Duan wanted to intercede, but for some reason, he dared not open his mouth.

From the moment he entered the account, he realized that the emperor in front of him was not the emperor he was familiar with. Not only was he taller and stronger, but he also had a majesty that was not there before.Even with a smile on his face and a quiet voice, people dare not be presumptuous.

If it wasn't for his appearance, he was vaguely familiar, and he would even feel that the emperor in front of him was another person.

"Wei... only."
