Silver Fox of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 105 Kong Ming's Shot (Two in One)

The second one was a young scholar about 20 years old, he stood up and bowed his hands to Shen Chen and said: "In Xiashan Yang Li Kai, I will follow my master Zi Yagong to learn."

He is not a local scholar in Jingzhou, but a student of the famous scholar Kaixi. Obviously, this also represents the attitude of Kaixi.

Shen Chen cupped his hands and said, "You are polite, please sit down."

The two sat down, and Li Kai said: "I followed my teacher to study the "Book of Filial Piety". A person of utmost filial piety, who is now serving the Son of Heaven, helping the Han family, and having both loyalty and filial piety, why would Xiao Lang defy Sikong?"

Shen Chen said with a smile: "Since you are studying the "Book of Filial Piety", you should know that "those who love relatives dare not be evil to others; those who respect relatives dare not be slow to others."Love and respect are all about serving relatives, but virtue and teaching are imposed on the people, and punishment is everywhere." If Cao Cao really abides by filial piety, why did he slaughter hundreds of thousands of Xuzhou people? Don't they have no parents and no children?"

"Forehead"

Li Kai was speechless for a moment.

Shen Chen suddenly slapped his forehead and said: "Oh, I remembered, Cao Cao slaughtered Xuzhou completely, so naturally there would be no children to respect their parents. Dare to be slow to others, as long as you kill everyone, you don’t have to be evil to others, slow to be slow to others, use other people’s lives to fulfill your hypocritical filial piety, Cao Cao is very filial.”

"Ugh."

Li Kai sighed, cupped his hands, and left the table.

The third person added, and this person came up and said: "Cao Cao used the position of Sikong to rule the six codes of the state, and used the king to rule the country. The punishment of Zhang Xiu is the code of punishment for the army. It is in line with the etiquette and law. Do you have any intention of not doing it?"

This person ruled the "Book of Rites".

Shen Chen nodded and said, "Is the prostitute's aunt also in accordance with the etiquette?"

The man looked embarrassed and had to leave.

The fourth person ruled is "Zuo Zhuan", which said: "Duke Zhuang and Yishegu drank wine and went out privately. They begged for meat. They took the stick and knocked it. Did the people go up to beg for meat?"

The implication is that you, a lowly person, how can you offend the superior?

Shen Chen sneered and said, "Did you cure Zuo Zhuan but not Book of Rites? At night, the concubine will hold candles on the steps of the shackles, the palace minister will hold candles on the west steps, and the people of Dian will hold large candles in the courtyard. For the big candle outside the door. The guest was drunk, and sat in the north to take his recommendation. Gu Yishe was rude, so how could he say that he was offended? Not to mention that even Confucius didn't talk about things with lowliness, but you looked down on them , is it true that your ancestors are all princes of all ages?"

"This"

The fourth was dumbfounded.

There are indeed fewer people who study "Zuo Zhuan" than other classics, because "Zuo Zhuan" itself has nearly 20 characters, and from the Western Han Dynasty to the Eastern Han Dynasty, there are countless people who study "Zuo Zhuan". There are also a lot of books.

Just one copy of "Zuo Zhuan" and the chapters left by various masters attached to it may amount to millions of words. At that time, it was possible to study for a lifetime, so it is normal to die other books.

Shen Chen flicked his sleeves and said, "Master, "Don't be humbled by poverty but be admired by others, and not be moved by wealth and honor." You don't even know the whole story, but you are ashamed of your lowliness and love vanity. You are really vulgar and foolish." !"

The man's face froze, and he covered his face and walked away.

Soon the fifth person came up and said: "Confucius ditched the tombs together to cover up the disobedience of the master." Although Sikong was a little cruel, he had to do it because of the country's crisis. Besides, there are also benevolent people When there is doubt about changing the festival, a gentleman should adapt his affairs so that he can respect the monarch and humble his ministers, and achieve great political success."

Shen Chen's face darkened, and he waved his hand, "Fork out!"

Immediately, soldiers rushed over to drag the fifth person away.

The man shouted, "Why are you being rude?"

Shen Chen said: "The purpose of combining the tombs of Fuzigou is to stabilize Ji Pingzi who is overbearing and prevent Lu from perishing, so that Duke Ding can regain the throne in the future. What is the purpose of Cao Cao slaughtering Xuzhou? It is to offer human remains to the emperor. Is it? Comparing the virtuous Master and Yan Hui with the immoral Cao Cao, how can such a coquettish person want to make Master Yan Hui unrighteous."

The man's face was ashen, and he was dragged out. Many other students dared not say anything because of the majesty of the soldiers.

Immediately afterwards, the sixth person, the seventh person, and the eighth person came up one by one. These people talked about it from a relatively general perspective, saying that Shen Chen's resistance to Cao Cao was not loyal to the emperor and patriotic, that he should not be involved in the affairs of the court, and even said that he It's not right to avenge your family.

Shen Chen refuted one by one, and what he said was well-founded and convincing.

Basically, there is no one who can fight.

Because Shen Chen's argument is also very reasonable, the point he is grasping is to separate Cao Cao from Liu Xie, and not let those Confucian scholars bind Cao Cao and Liu Xie together.

Otherwise they would claim that whatever Cao Cao did was backed by the emperor.

As long as you hold on to this point, you can talk about anything.

You said that resisting Cao is not loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but that means that Cao Cao is equal to the country, and where is the emperor?

You said he was in the name of the Son of Heaven.

it is good.

What about the edict?
What if there is no imperial edict and a fake festival axe?
If there is none, then he is sending troops privately.

Why can't I fight with the princes who send troops privately?

Just because he is called Cao Cao?

As for saying that he shouldn't take revenge, it's even more ridiculous.

Although at the end of the Han Dynasty, with the decline of Gongyang Confucianism, the idea of ​​great revenge has gradually declined.

But there is still a market for him.

What's more, Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou in the name of avenging his father.

He Cao Cao can take revenge.

I can not?
Why?

The double standard is not so double standard.

Therefore, under Shen Chen's serial gun-like firepower output, many Confucian scholars were almost blown away.

They were defeated one by one, and soon lost more than a dozen.

The reason for this is that the group of people who came was just a group of young scholars.

If they were replaced by their teachers, their combat effectiveness would definitely be different, and it might put some pressure on Shen Chen.

But a group of young Confucian scholars who haven't learned their skills well are just a small test of the knife.

Although Shen Chen hadn't studied Confucianism for a long time, only six or seven years, his dialectical logical thinking was much stronger than them, and he easily defeated these people.

After nearly half of the loss, the people who came did not dare to step forward, and stood around one by one, shrinking back.

There was silence in the yard, and everyone had different faces.

The scholars who came to find fault all looked unhappy, but when they were refuted, it was because they were not good at studies, no one to blame.

The villagers didn't really understand what they were talking about, but they only saw Shen Chen's one against ten, making each other feel ashamed and walking away, so they knew that he had won a complete victory, so they watched with relish.

Some of the scholars who watched the theater were glad that they didn't come to find fault, otherwise they would lose face if they were scolded by a 12-year-old child in public.

Pang Tong and Xu Shu's eyes were full of interest, and Shen Chen's debate was extremely brilliant. Even if they were replaced, they might not be so quick-witted, so they sincerely admired his talent and learning.

After a while, Shen Chen saw that there was still no one sitting in front of him, so he laughed loudly and said, "Why, that's all you can do?"

Hu Shang and Wen Xia didn't appear on the stage. They looked at each other and shook their heads silently.

After confirming the eyes, the two of them couldn't figure out that person.

But there was also a reckless man who stood up and scolded: "Why are you a yellow-mouthed kid? Which one here is not older than you, and which one is not older than you? Open your mouth is so vulgar, and shut your mouth as stupid. You are just a mere child. How dare you speak in front of me?" This rap?"

It started.

Shen Chen's spirit was shaken, and someone finally started to attack personally.

Immediately he jumped up like a spring, and roared at the man: "The Master said: You are not a grandson when you are young, you are a thief when you are old, and you are not dead. You are old and have no virtue. Disrespectful, will you die?"

"How can you educate students with your character and talents?"

That person didn't dare to show weakness, and immediately responded.

Shen Chen calmly said: "Why can't I? There is no learning before and after, and those who have mastered it are teachers. Xiang Lu is a teacher of Confucius at the age of seven. What's more, everyone knows my talent and learning. Who can beat me?"

"Are you virtuous?"

The man asked back.

Shen Chen sneered and said, "Whether I am virtuous or not is not something you can judge."

The man smiled and said, "Can the villagers talk about it?"

"nature."

Shen Chen said seriously: "The surrounding villagers can comment on my virtue."

The man said: "I heard that you stole pigs and rice in the village pavilion a few days ago, and the carriage even cut his trousers while running away. Is there such a thing?"

"Nothing."

Shen Chen categorically denied it.

The man suddenly laughed: "Where is Xiao Da?"

Some people came out of the crowd timidly, seeing Shen Chen looking, their eyes dodged.

This person is exactly the lazy man I met at Juxiang Pavilion in Hanyang a few days ago.

Shen Chen frowned slightly.

Unexpectedly, this person would come to frame him.

Seeing that the situation had changed, Hu Shang immediately came to the man and asked, "Brother Zhao Lang, what's going on."

That person is the Anzhong Zhao family, named Zhao Ran, whose family is located in the north of Hanyangju.

He said to Hu Shang in a low voice: "I passed by Mianshui, met this man, and learned some things, Shen Chen looks good today."

Hu Shang happily patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then please, brother Zhao Lang."

"rest assured."

Zhao Ran replied in a low voice, then walked in front of Shen Chen, and said to the surrounding villagers: "Everyone, this person has stolen pigs and grains, and there are all witnesses. Are you going to hand over your heirs to such an immoral person?" ?”

"No way, is this true?"

"This"

"Could it be Shen Xiaolang? I don't believe he is such a person."

"But they have evidence."

There was an uproar around, never expecting such an outburst.

Although personal morality is very fantasy, and Cao Cao's personal morality is very bad, but he is the most powerful man in the world.

But when it comes to teaching and educating people, people naturally hope that people with good teacher morality will be responsible.

If you are not virtuous, why should you be someone else's teacher?
So now that it is revealed that Shen Chen has really done these things, I am afraid that his reputation will soon spread throughout the countryside.

"He is talking nonsense. We bought the pig. That day at Hanyang Ju, a family happened to lose their pig. It was somewhat similar to the pig we bought. Xiao Lang was afraid that they would misunderstand, so he put the pig in that household first. At home, they said that they would return the pig to Xiao Lang when they found it later.”

Before Shen Chen could speak, his guard, Shen Qi, was unhappy, and immediately stood up and pointed at Xiao Dao: "As for this guy, he just falsely accused Xiao Lang, Xiao Lang was kind, and even gave him 300 yuan to buy pants, etc. How can you believe a rascal's words?"

In fact, Xiao Da was bought by Zhao Ran to frame Shen Chen. Hearing this sentence, he became anxious and hurriedly said: "Everything I say is true. It was Zhao Hua and Old Man Du who said that he stole pigs and grains. This is all because of everyone. What you saw, not to mention if you didn't steal it, why do you want to return the pigs?"

It's not like the old man you hit, why should the old man be sent to the hospital is a logic.

Deng Pi said angrily: "You are really abominable, Xiao Lang is obviously afraid that the villagers will lose their pigs and grains, and have no one to rely on this year, so he kindly gives alms, and it will become a robbery of pigs and grains in your mouth." , there was no evidence at the time, so you made a false accusation afterwards and ruined Xiao Lang's name, what is your intention?"

Zhao Ran lazily said: "There was no certificate at the time, so why are you so eager to return the gift coins? Maybe it's because you are afraid that the certificate will be found out."

There's no need to play with me, right?

Shen Chen was furious, but calmed down after a while, and suddenly smiled: "So, you are going to accuse me of stealing pigs and grain?"

"That's natural."

Zhao Ran put his hands on his hips and said, "Since it's a violation of the law, how can there be no reason not to question the crime?"

Shen Chen nodded: "Well, I will go to see the sufferer with you. If there is evidence, I will go to prison. If there is no evidence, you are slandering demons, how about it?"

"Forehead"

Zhao Ran hesitated all of a sudden.

The crime of defamation in the Han Dynasty was still very serious. In the Western Han Dynasty, the city was basically abandoned, that is, beheaded or beheaded.

After the Eastern Han Dynasty, this crime was much less serious. Basically, you falsely accused the other party of any crime, and you were the crime if you found out the truth.

Zhao Ran accused Shen Chen of stealing. Although it was not a serious crime, he would be imprisoned and served in corvée, and this was only in name. Being a prisoner has no human rights, and there is no place to justify him when he dies.

Therefore, it also made him hesitate for a while whether to continue working.

Seeing his hesitation, the people around him said: "Aren't there witnesses for what he is afraid of?"

"Yes, there are all the physical evidence for authentication, so what is there to be afraid of?"

"Brother Zhao Lang, are you not afraid?"

Everyone encouraged.

Zhao Ran was a little bit on the fence, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, if there is a lie, I will accept the punishment, but I firmly believe that you are just lying to the people and bewitching the villagers."

"Everyone heard it."

Shen Chen said to the surroundings: "This person is going to sue me for stealing pigs and grains today, so let's go to Hanyang to get together and ask the suffering master how about it?"

"Okay, let's go."

Some people didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, and wanted to follow.

However, some villagers shook their heads and prepared to leave.

It is more than 20 miles away from here in Hanyang, they can just watch the excitement nearby, and running more than 20 miles to watch a play is obviously not worthwhile.

But the scholars went all out.

He didn't win the debate with Shen Chen on Jingyi before, and now he is attacking his moral character.

Zhao Ran felt that there were witnesses, and the winner was in his hands, and the rest of the students also thought so, and the scholars who watched the excitement would naturally follow, and hundreds of people went out, and they were going to gather in Hanyang.

When everyone had gone out and the courtyard was a little more open, Zhuge Liang came to Shen Chen's side, and said with a light smile, "Army, how are you? I told you."

Shen Chen nodded: "I really didn't expect them to act like this. I gave the pigs and money to the villagers. Firstly, I was afraid that they might misunderstand that we might have something to do with this matter. Second, I was afraid that the villagers would lose them." Property, life is difficult. I didn’t expect to be used by these people as a way to attack me.”

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "How do you plan to solve this matter?"

Shen Chen thought for a while and said: "I guessed at that time that the wheat valley should be made by wild boars. As long as I find wild boars, it will at least prove that I did not steal old Mr. Du's grains. As for that brother Zhao Lang, I am afraid I will not find it." His pig."

"It's okay."

Zhuge Liang didn't have a feather fan in his hand, but he still gently covered his face with his long sleeves, and whispered in Shen Chen's ear: "You take care of yourself, I have already made up my mind."

Shen Chen looked at Zhuge Liang in surprise and said, "Brother."

"Go."

Zhuge Liang put his hands behind his back and smiled mysteriously.

With his words, Shen Chen immediately felt confident and walked out the door.

Deng Hong and Liu Xian came over and asked, "Ah Chen, what's going on here?"

Shen Chen shook his head and said: "It's nothing serious, I was afraid of being tired and cleared my name before and scattered some belongings, don't worry, uncle, they can't do anything to me."

"That's good."

Deng Hong nodded, he believed that his grandson had a way.

Everyone was already waiting for him outside. Shen Chen came to the door, protected by twenty guards, leading carriages one after another, ready to set off for Hanyangju.

Scholars on their side have carriages for travel, but the carriages are in the east of the pavilion, so there was a delay for some time.

After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, that is, about half an hour, the road in the west of the pavilion was already full of carriages, and the surrounding villagers saw a large number of vehicles suddenly gathered, and more people came to watch the excitement.

Shen Chen's convoy was at the forefront. Before they set off, they suddenly noticed a mighty team coming at the end of the road to the west, facing the direction they came from.

Because the road was relatively narrow, they didn't set off. They were going to wait for the team at the end of the road to reach Suiting, and then leave after the two sides missed it.

But when the team got closer and was about to reach Suiting, Shen Chen suddenly noticed that the people in the front seemed quite familiar.

That team was not a horse team, but a trolley. The car was so dark that it was hard to see. There were about 30 to [-] people. The man in the front was a strong man, who seemed to have known each other.

Soon they came close, the man noticed that there were carriages all over the road, Shen Chen stood there, and said happily: "Shen Xiaolang, I'm sorry, I'm late."

"So it's brother Zhao Lang."

Shen Chen bowed his hands, and saw that what was placed on the trolleys were wild boars, there were more than ten wild boars.

It was Zhao Hua who came, and he said happily: "Xiao Lang is right, my pigs were indeed taken away by wild boars nearby, and it brought those wild boars to eat the wheat grains from Uncle Du's house. Their bellies are full of grains of wheat."

The old man Du who said before that Shen Chen's horses ate his wheat grain stepped forward, took out his purse and said guiltily: "Xiao Lang, I was also fascinated at the time, and I was afraid that if no one compensated, the family would starve to death." , just said that your horse ate my wheat grain. Not only did you generously give me coins, but you also sent people to help us catch these wild boars. Return it to Xiao Lang."

As soon as this remark came out, the faces of the people around changed drastically, especially that Zhao Ran.

Shen Chen glanced at the scholars behind who came to smash the scene, and then asked: "These are trivial matters, as I said at the time, if you find the real culprit in the future, please tell everyone that your wheat field is not mine. Horse damage. Are you sure you have found the real culprit now? Brother Zhao Lang, have you found your pig?"

"of course."

Zhao Hua took a black pig tied to the side of the cart and said, "Look, Xiao Lang, I told you that day that my pig's ear has white spots, but the one you gave me doesn't have white spots, so I have always suspected that the pig was not mine, I blamed Mr. Xiao Lang wrongly, now it seems that it is indeed the case, Xiao Lang's benevolence and righteousness make us ashamed."

Shen Chen looked, and there was indeed a white spot on the pig's ear.

Old man Du also pointed to the wild boars on the cart and said: "We slaughtered these wild boars, cut open their stomachs, and they were full of wheat grains. This time when we came to Suiting, one of them was to apologize to Xiao Lang. We discussed that half of the wild boars here will be donated. Xiao Lang. The two are selling these preserved pigs to make up for them to eat the wheat fields in the countryside."

At this time, Zhao Ran was already fighting with two strands, and was about to collapse.But there was no one around to help him, but he was afraid to avoid it like watching a plague god.

And Xiao Da, who came to testify before, rolled his eyes and wanted to run away.

But the surrounding guards had already surrounded the people.

Those scholars were all frustrated.

Not only did it fail to win the debate this time, but now it seems that one may have to be included.

Only Shen Chen looked back at Zhuge Liang, full of gratitude.

In fact, in the village that day, he was really afraid that the villagers would misunderstand them as thieves, so he said that he would give his pig and some money to the villagers first, and then return them to him after finding out the truth.

This will prevent gossip.

After all, they wandered around the countryside during that time, as if they were here to scout, and it was normal for them to be suspected by the villagers.

As a result, I didn't expect that a move I wanted to prove my innocence was attacked by people.

It is really surprising to attack him with such words as why you should compensate the villagers for what you did not steal.

Fortunately, Zhuge Liang thought much more far-reaching than him, and considered all aspects, and sent people in advance to help the villagers encircle and suppress the group of wild boars, and returned his innocence.

This made Shen Chen very grateful to have such an all-around friend like Zhuge Liang by his side.

As for Zhao Ran.

It can only be said that he just hit the muzzle of the gun.

If he just debated with Shen Chen, nothing would happen.

But he has to use this as an unfounded reason to attack Shen Chen's moral character, and he deserves to go to jail.
