Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 10
The next day, the Gongyang Biography was studied as usual. Most of the great Confucianists in this era only studied the classics and devoted their entire lives to research. He Gong’s understanding of the Gongyang Biography reached a level that no one in his generation could match. The entire Han Dynasty , Those who can surpass him are less than one palm away. The little fat man has something on his mind and he can't hold back. When the teacher finishes teaching, he stares at He Gong with wide eyes, wondering whether he should ask or not.

He knew exactly who it was, the little fat man. He stroked his beard and asked, "Do you have any doubts?" The little fat man nodded and asked, "Master, does this Yuan Kai have an elder brother?" Call it Yuan Feng?"

"Yes, you don't have to worry about this person working with Mrs. Chen. This person is famous for his generosity and sincerity, so he won't make things difficult for a child like you."

The little fat man stared wide-eyed, swallowed his saliva, and asked again: "Is there another brother named Cheng?"

"Yuan Wenkai was a man who died early, but few knew him. How did you know it?" Now, He Xiu was a little confused. Yuan Feng was famous and followed the Taifu. It was not surprising that Liu Hong knew him, but Yuan Cheng That is a person who has been dead for more than ten years. Before he died, he was only a general of Zuo Zhonglang, and he did not reach the level of a famous minister. How did this kid know?
This kid, since the auspicious incident happened in the early days, his temperament has changed a bit. He used to recite the scriptures, but he couldn't recite the scriptures overnight, but now he recites them backwards, word by word. The speed is also getting faster and faster, I just asked "Is it possible to avenge the hatred of nine generations?", this guy suddenly realized that he drew his sword and killed!

If it weren't for being short, he would have become famous all over the world for killing the elders in the state! !
As for whether it is a bad reputation or a good reputation, it depends on who contributes more, the Yuan family or the emperor.

He Xiu looked at him suspiciously. The little fat man also panicked, and he didn't dare to lie to the teacher. He looked around anxiously, but couldn't speak. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. He Xiu turned around and called Said: "Go in."

Dong Shi came in slowly, Dong Shi looked extremely haggard, she hadn't closed her eyes for several days, first because of Dong Zhong, now because of Yuan Kai, she bowed down and said: "The stupid woman is not talented, I offended He Gong before, I don’t know, may I tell He Gong?”

"You don't have much to say to the foolish woman, you can go by yourself." He Xiu waved his hand and said without giving her any face.

"Master?" the little fat man suddenly called out.

He Xiu looked down at him, the little fat man thought for a moment, and said: "Master, you insulted my mother. According to Gongyang's legend, you should take revenge. However, Master is my teacher. Li said, respect your master, and Gongyang also said , I don’t know how to repay my master’s revenge?”

"Stupid! Revenge is also divided into upper and lower levels. The highest is the country's hatred, the second is the father's hatred, and the next is the teacher and friend. The parent's hatred is the first. Killing the teacher is immoral. The teacher insults the mother. Killing the teacher, and then punishing yourself with injustice !"

Seeing that these two people talked about this, Dong's face turned pale with fright, the person who cured Gongyang Chuan was indeed a lunatic!
Crying out that the revenge of the nine generations can be avenged, whoever sees whom? !
"Ah Lang, don't be rude! Silence!!" Dong yelled quickly, really afraid that the old and the young would chop each other up for some kind of revenge. The little fat man was still afraid of his mother, so he didn't dare to speak immediately , lowered his head, and said nothing, and He Xiu, although he was unhappy because the sutra discussion was interrupted, it was a matter of course for the mother to educate the child, so it was not easy to say anything.

Turning around and about to leave, Mrs. Dong said helplessly, "Mr. He stays behind. There is really a big deal that needs to be taught to Mr. He. I hope to explain it to Mr. He!" He raised his head, without looking at Dong, and asked, "Finally, what's the matter?" Dong ordered the little fat man to go out, invited He Gong to sit on the top seat, and said, "He Gong is a famous Confucian in the world. In the eyes of He Gong?"

"It's all about an appointment with your ancestor." He Xiu seemed to remember something, and closed his eyes slightly.

Mrs. Dong hesitated for a long time, but in the end she still didn't say anything. She bowed again and sent the old man away.

She didn't know if she should tell this venerable old man the secret of the goldfish and the book of heaven, if she did, would he help Liu Hong achieve his great cause, or would he report it to the court? It was too big, Dong Shi didn't dare to reveal at the end, she didn't want to gamble with Liu Hong's life.

Of course, Liu Hong didn't know about these things. The little fat man was in the attic at the moment, holding the thick heavenly book, and read it from the beginning again. This time, he was no longer as ignorant as the first time. It seems that the fate of everyone has been decided, so Yuan Kai will be the Sangong in the future?Will there be a nephew called Yuan Benchu ​​who openly defies the imperial court?

Suddenly, Liu Hong wanted to know if he really had a nephew called Yuan Shao!

At this time, Yuan Kai's memorial had already arrived at Shangshutai.

At this moment, Shang Shu Ling Cao Ding is reading the memorial in the mansion, and the memorial needs to be presented to the heaven on the Shang Shu's platform. Looking at the memorial, Cao Ding has a headache, and the letter is full of Yuan Kai's crying complaints. As the Prime Minister of a country, I was unable to convince the public, and was bullied by a domineering child. The target of this report is Tinghou Liu Hong, but Liu Hong is a close relative of His Majesty, should this be reported?

After thinking for a long time, Cao Ding became a little irritable. There were fierce battles between the aristocratic families in the late Han Dynasty and the eunuchs, but not all the aristocratic families opposed the eunuchs. Even, among them there are children entering the palace, such as Cao Teng, the famous chief minister of Zhongchang, or Cao Song, Cao Ding, Cao Chi, etc. who have always been attached to eunuchs.

It is said that they are eunuchs, but they are actually slaves of the emperor, and what the eunuchs are doing is the emperor's will. However, the power of the family is expanding day by day. They have mastered knowledge, officials, and public opinion, and they are not satisfied. , They still want to master something bigger. Although they succeeded after 100 years and established a family era where "the king and the horse share the world", but now, they are still not qualified.

The Cao family has a bad reputation among the aristocratic family, but it is safe to live. The stumbling block of the aristocratic family is better than the emperor's anger, right?
Cao Ding thought for a long time, but couldn't come up with a solution. In the end, he decided to ask his brother to find a solution.

Elder brother Cao Song, although the outside world says he is mediocre and incompetent, but the clan's private matters, big or small, are all decided by Cao Song. The clan respects him deeply, ready the carriage, and hurried to Cao Song's mansion, the servants They also rushed to meet and welcome them, and when they entered the mansion, they saw half of the big boys, with many slaves, riding wooden poles, playing games of marching and fighting.

"Absurd!" Cao Ding yelled angrily. When the boy saw his uncle, he was neither afraid nor saluted, and shouted to the surrounding boys: "There are so many thieves! Follow me to retreat!!" After finishing speaking Then he ran away in a flash, Cao Ding couldn't laugh or cry, he had no choice but to let someone inform Cao Song, and a servant came to inform him, and immediately took Cao Ding into the study, and when he entered the study, he saw Cao Song reading a book.

"Brother."

"Zhongde is here, sit, sit."

The two sat on their knees, saluted, and exchanged greetings for a while. Cao Ding then slowly explained the matter. After he finished speaking, he waited for his elder brother to give him advice. I'm afraid that this Shang Shuling will have to change someone."

"What do you mean, brother?" Cao Ding was startled, and hurriedly got up and asked.

"This matter is nothing more than a house slave coaxing the young master. What is the crime? Then Yuan Ciyang did this on purpose, and the goal was not Jiedu Tinghou, but rather." Cao Song said, pointing to the sky, Cao Ding was shocked, Standing up quickly, leaning over as if listening respectfully, Cao Song waved his hands and said, "You and I are many, so there's no need to be like this. Marquis Ting is the emperor's close relative. Yuan Kai's making a fuss out of a molehill this time may have ulterior motives."

"What do you think about the matter of the house slave? Even if it is a crime, it is only a fine. But this time, Yuan Ciyang provoked Tinghou, so he stabbed him. I am afraid that he wanted to bring this matter before the emperor. How could the emperor deal with Marquis Ting? That is the only close relative of the emperor. If the emperor does not allow it, heh, he will say that the emperor favoritism, reuse eunuchs and so on, it is impossible to say that the general will take the city full of students to walk around the city .”

"At that time, what should the emperor do?"

"I can only compromise with him, but what can be compromised?" Cao Song thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "This year, Cheng Yu and Liu Zhi were imprisoned. I'm afraid they did this to save the two thieves! But I never thought that, That Yuan Kai is really ruthless, in order to succeed in his scheme, he even gave up his right leg, this person should not be underestimated."

After listening to Cao Song's words, Cao Ding was already dumbfounded.

"Then, brother, what should I do about this?"

"Oh, this matter has nothing to do with us. The next time the court meets, just hand over the memorial directly to the emperor. If you keep it privately, they will only be happier. When the time comes, the power of eunuchs will fall to the court and the public, and the emperor does not know the people. matter, is that okay?"

"Thank you brother for clarifying the confusion!"
