Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 114
The little fat man ignored them, turned around and went back to the hall.

The quarrel in the temple lasted for a long time. Regarding He Xiu's beating of Wang Fu, all the officials were approving and sighing in their hearts. Why is the court not allowed to wear a sword?After they left the palace, there were even party members who hurried He Xiu to get the sword, but he was chased and killed several streets by the enraged He Xiu.

Wang Fu has become the common enemy of all the officials, but after this incident, He Xiu was praised by many party members, and even gained the reputation of today's literati.

The little fat man didn't care about this. As for the construction of roads, he was still planning to leave it to Wang Fu. Although this person has a terrible personality, he is indeed a great talent. I can rest assured that I will entrust this matter to him. It is huge, and it is also the most gigantic project since I ascended the throne. It can only be successful and cannot fail. If he does not do well, it is justifiable to take his head!

Compared with the previous year, the little fat man is not very busy this year. After all, there is a Wang Fu in the Shangshutai. The family was doing well, so the little fat man held back. Therefore, the little fat man was no longer as busy as last year.

He often went to see Mrs. Dong, but no matter how much he begged and complained, Mrs. Dong refused to see him. Occasionally, Dong Cheng came to chat with him, and the little fat man could only learn about it from him. Mother's situation.

Mrs. Song also went there several times in person, but unfortunately, she was also turned away from the door and could not be seen. Gradually, the Yellow Gate in the palace and the ministers of the court did not dare to mention Empress Dowager Dong anymore.

In October, Huanglong appeared in Xiangping County, Youzhou.

At the end of the month, Yang Ci died.

Yang Ci resigned from office earlier because of serious illness and returned home. His son Yang Biao took care of him personally. Wen Renxi took over his position. He was granted the title of Marquis of Zhongche Township, but not a noble.

The Son of Heaven also worshiped Song Feng as Zhijinwu, and entered the Song family as a nobleman.

In November, everyone up to Sangong and down to Tingli was prepared to deal with snow disasters. Since the first year of Jianning, there have been three consecutive years of snow disasters. This year, the little fat man attaches great importance to this matter, so every The officials are all prepared to deal with the snow disaster and are waiting for the snow to fall. However, until the end of this cold winter, there will not be a blizzard. The auspicious snow flutters, which seems to herald the next harvest year.

The officials attributed this to the high virtue of the emperor, which moved the heavens, so no disasters came.

Only He Xiu, this day, was like a madman, holding a jug in one hand and a long sword in the other, wandering around Luoyang City, shouting: "Old thief! I was right! You are dead! Heaven will never die again!" Disaster is coming! Come out quickly and fight with me! Come out!!" Seeing him laughing, drinking cows, wielding swords, and crying, everyone dared not come forward to stop him or ask him.

When the little fat man heard about this, he just shook his head helplessly and said nothing.

At the end of the fourth year of Jianning, Zheng Xuan, a doctor of classics, came suddenly and told the guards that he wanted to meet the emperor. The first time he entered the palace, he followed He Xiu to the palace before, but the little fat man didn't reuse him, because although this person has high attainments in Confucian classics, he doesn't know the world, so he can be used but not reused.

Although I don't know why he came, but this person is close to He Xiu, and he is well respected in the court, the little fat man sat in the hall, waiting, after a while, this person came in under the leadership of Huangmen, After entering the palace, the little fat man stood up and said with a smile: "My friend is here!" Zheng Xuan bowed himself, saying that he didn't dare.

Sitting face to face with the little fat man, the little fat man asked all kinds of things about his school, Zheng Xuan also responded in an orderly manner, and seemed to be somewhat capable. Kneeling upright in front of the little fat man, neither humble nor overbearing, he really has the demeanor of a great Confucian, of course, it is a decent demeanor of a great Confucian, not like some brutal and crazy Confucianism.
Han people value appearance, and they care more about temperament.

Fatty also has a good impression of such a dignified celebrity like Zheng Xuan.

"Your Majesty." Zheng Xuan straightened his body, with a solemn expression, the little fat man also straightened his body, and asked with a smile, "I wonder why Mr. Zheng came here today?"

"I'm here to herd cattle for His Majesty!"

The little fat man was taken aback, his eyes widened, and after thinking for a moment, he understood what he meant. Did he want to offer advice on the matter of Mintun?The so-called cattle, is it not farming cattle?However, he still had an ignorant expression on his face, and asked with some surprise: "What do you mean by your words? Could it be that you blame me for not knowing people? Do you feel that your talents are underappreciated?"

Zheng Xuan laughed lightly, shook his head, and said, "How dare I have any extravagant hopes for your Majesty's love?" He paused, and then said: "Your Majesty, there is an agreement in the Han Law, and cattle are not allowed to be slaughtered without reason. I don't know why your Majesty knows?" The little fat man also tried his best to cooperate with him, shaking his head, and said: "I don't know why?"

"Cultivators are important tools for farming. What's more, for cattle, the skin can be used to make armor, the meat can be used as military rations, and the tendons can be used to make bows. The benefits are harmless! Therefore, the Han law specifically prohibits private slaughter of cattle!"

"So that's it!" The little fat man made a look of sudden realization, nodded approvingly, and looked at Zheng Xuan.

"Nowadays, there are not many great Han cattle. When I was teaching my students to manage agriculture, I saw the miscellaneous compilations of agricultural books, which actually recorded the strategy of cattle herding and the technique of healing cattle. I tried it myself and found out If a cow is sick, it can be healed like a human being!" Zheng Xuan paused, let the little fat man think for a while, and then said: "Miscellaneous chapters in agricultural books fifth, Xu Ziyou asked you to set up a pasture to raise cattle. recommend."

"At that time, because the princes lost their virtue, no one accepted their policy. At this time, the world is in great order, and there is no danger of war. I ask your majesty to set up a pasture and raise cattle. I am willing to recommend myself for this position. Within three years, I will definitely send you There are enough cattle, enough for plowing the field and enough for soldiers!" Zheng Xuan possessed himself and said, the little fat man looked at him with some surprise in his eyes, he looked for a long time, and asked:

"Everyone in the world despises farming and animal husbandry, so how can you recommend yourself?"

Zheng Xuanduan sat, and said loudly: "The sky sees the people, and the sky listens to the people."

The little fat man was taken aback, and slowly replied:
"The common people have had a past, and if I give it to one person, I will go now."

This sentence comes from "Shangshu · Tai's Oath": It was what King Wu said to the people before he conquered the merchants. The general meaning is that what the sky can see is what my people can see and the sky can hear. Yes, that is what my people can hear. When Zheng Xuan made this statement at this time, he expressed his Confucianism.

And the little fat man's answer is the second sentence, the people hate Shang so much now, it's my responsibility, I want to attack Shang personally, this can be regarded as the little fat man expressing his approval of Zheng Xuan's thinking, and his answer, Zheng Xuan Hearing this, he was overjoyed, this oath had never been recognized, and was suspected to be a folk forgery, but the Xinxue led by him recognized and agreed with this idea.

Now that I have received the reply from the emperor, no one will suspect that the Thai oath is a forgery.

I can also fulfill my wish and herd cattle for the emperor!
　I'm in a bad mood, the recommendation is suddenly cut off, and there will be no more recommendations starting next week, and everyone may not be able to find the little fat man.
