Chapter 482 Chaos ([-])

Two big bucks for one book is indeed extremely cheap!

The Lumen Pavilion was built in Taiping Square directly opposite the gate of Weiyang Palace. It is a three-story building with carved beams and painted buildings, which has a very simple pre-Qin atmosphere.

The owner of this Lumen Pavilion is none other than Lord Pang De, a Lumen layman from Lumen Mountain in Xiangyang.

On the first and second floors of the pavilion, there are stacks of printed "Comments on the Six Classics".This commentary on the Six Classics is a set of texts compiled by scholars from all walks of life after Zheng Xuan, a doctor of the Six Classics, gave a lecture on the last Sutra feast before his death.It is said that except for the dozens of people who participated in the revision each got a set, only Cao Cao, Dong Bi and Liu Biao received gifts.

Cao Cao is the lord of Qingzhou, he is also erudite, and has a good reputation in the literary world.

Liu Biao was a celebrity who became famous all over the world during the period of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, so he also got a set.

However, Dong Yu's "Six Classics Commentary" was beyond the expectations of many people.On the one hand, this is also a signal of reconciliation sent to Dong Bi by the scholar class represented by Zheng Xuan.Regardless of how the scholars viewed Dong Bi in the past, since Liu Bian ascended the throne and Dong Bi defeated the coalition forces in Luoyang, the power in Guanzhong has become more stable, and it has faintly represented an orthodox status.

The commentaries on the Six Classics are of little practical value to Dong Bi.

Although he came to this era, he also has some attainments in ancient prose.But actually?He still doesn't like reading this kind of books.

Keeping it as a collection is a good choice.

But if everyone in the world can read the "Commentary to the Six Classics", Zheng Xuan must be very happy in the spirit of heaven.

As for Lord Pang De, who presides over the Lumen Pavilion, he is not comparable to Zheng Xuan, but he is also the most suitable candidate.

When the dense veil of Lumen Pavilion was lifted, the first printing of [-] volumes of "Commentary to the Six Classics" sold out in one day.Since ancient times, scholars have wanted to read books, or borrow them, or use other means, such as rubbing, such as transcription, to meet their own needs.

Now it is not needed!

"Six Classics Commentary" was published by Lumen Pavilion, and it was typesetting in Han Xiaozhuan.Two big coins, even for ordinary people, are nothing, a set of books has 26 volumes, and the unified price is [-] big coins, which made Chang'an scholars go crazy on the opening day of Lumen Pavilion!
Dong Bi was on the top floor of the third floor of Lumen Pavilion, watching the crowds of people downstairs, with a smile on his face.

This can be regarded as a good start... I believe that in the near future, the books published by Lumen Pavilion will spread all over the country.

Reading will no longer be the monopoly of the aristocratic families!
Holding a set of books, Li Kui stood respectfully behind Dong Bi.He and Ma Liang are both scholars, so how could they fail to understand Dong Bi's painstaking efforts.Looking at the lion-like back, the eyes of both of them were moist... Liang Wang's move is to benefit the world's scholar!
"Okay, let's go!"

Ma Liang said softly: "His Royal Highness, Layman Lumen will hold an experience on the second floor later, aren't you going to participate?"

Dong Bi couldn't help laughing, "Why did I participate there? I can't understand them, and I can't talk about them. Instead of sitting here and discussing, it's better to do something real. Besides, I think those old gentlemen , I’m afraid you won’t be happy to see me here.”

"Then now..."

"Wrap up this set of 42 chapters. Now I'm going to Bailiangtai to see the emperor."

Although Dong Bi didn't like Buddhism, he couldn't ignore Liu Bian's feelings.What's more, he ordered someone to write an inscription in the Lumen Pavilion: "Hai Na Bai Chuan".Some things can't be messed with according to his temper.As long as it is under control, any theory is fine!
******
Chang'an Lumen Pavilion has been open for more than a month, and it has been lively for 30 days.

After the Chang'an scholars got the books they needed to their heart's content, the Lumen Pavilion gradually became calm.Since then, Xipingfang will continue to print various books and send them to Lumen Pavilion.As long as there are more people who can read and write, Dong Bi's reputation will increase.Just looking at the comings and goings of the Lumen Pavilion, the booksellers who travel to and from various places know how huge the demand for this book is.

Kanto has become chaotic...

On the No. 17 day when Lu Bu invaded Nanyang, Liu Bei from Xuzhou suddenly sent troops.With Guan Yu as the commander and Xu You as the military adviser, he conquered Runan.

Under the city of Pingyu, Guan Yu killed Cai Yang on horseback.

After Liu Ye was defeated, he used Heilujian as a natural moat, built a line of defense from Baiting to Dingying, and repelled Guan Yu's army to the death.

However, Liu Ye really couldn't back down anymore!

If you retreat again, Yingchuan's gate will be opened, and Guan Yu may even hit Xuchang.In mid-April, Cao Cao ordered General Xingguo, Marquis of Chen Cao Ren, to send [-] troops to Ruyang to build a line of defense in Xiang County and Zhengqiang.At the same time, envoys were sent to Jingzhou to explain to Liu Biao.

Jizhou, Yecheng...

Sima Lang stood in the hall neither humble nor overbearing, talking eloquently: "Yuan Gong, Cao Cao usurped power and established a false emperor in Xuchang. This is actually the work of a national traitor. Today, King Pei is unwilling to be humiliated by the royal family, so he sent troops to Runan. Before the minister's mission , Duke Xuande once told the ministers to be extra respectful when they saw Duke Yuan. Duke Xuande was taken in by Duke Yuan when he was in danger, and he never forgets it. Therefore, when we send troops to attack Cao, we dare not forget Duke Yuan.”

Yuan Shao's face was gloomy, but he sneered.

"Don't dare to forget? He Liu Xuande has a heart... Maybe he is unable to deal with Cao Mengde, so he wants me to send troops to help him."

Sima Lang said sternly: "Mr. Yuan's words are wrong. Although Mr. Xuande is no match for Cao Cao, he is capable of fighting with the power of Liu and Jingzhou. Now our Han Dynasty is full of country thieves outside and treacherous ministers inside. Is it a good time for us to show our talents and reimburse the country? The fourth and third generations of the Yuan family are loyal to our Han family. This is something everyone knows... Xuande Lord once said that those who restore the Han family are not great Who is the general?"

As early as when Li Guo was raging in Guanzhong, Yuan Shao had set up his own shogunate and refused to listen to the announcement.

Later, Cao Cao welcomed the emperor and appointed Yuan Shao as a general.Regardless of whether the name of this great general is orthodox, Yuan Shao is always proud of it.

Dong Bi dominated Guanzhong, and Huangtong transferred to Chang'an.

However, Yuan Shao was only granted the title of Sikong, and the position of general was abolished, and Dong Pi was appointed the commander-in-chief of the three armies, which made Yuan Shao feel very uncomfortable.But even if he feels uncomfortable, what can he do?beat?He definitely can't beat Guan Zhong... What's more, he and Guan Zhong still have a bad debt.Yuan Shang was held in Dong Bi's hands, and He Qi refused to return the second county of Youzhou, so he was very annoyed.

Hearing Sima Lang call him a great general, Yuan Shao felt a little flattered.

However, it is impossible for him to send troops.After all, just after a battle with Cao Cao, the euphorbia warriors are still being formed, and their vitality has not yet recovered.

Sima Lang said seriously: "If the general is willing, Xuande and Liu Jingzhou will follow suit. Qingzhou has a lot of money and food, and has a large population. The general sends troops from Jizhou, and he can take Qingyan and Qingzhou, defeat Cao Mengde, and even welcome the emperor. Wouldn't it be beautiful to have the right time?"

What he said was very vague.

To welcome the emperor?

Which emperor do you welcome?Is it the emperor of Xuchang or the emperor of Chang'an?

But these words made the string in Yuan Shao's heart... tremble unconsciously.

Although his face was still expressionless, his eyes softened a little.What kind of character is Sima Lang? The descendants of the Sima clan, a wealthy family for 400 years, have experienced many hardships, and their ability to observe words and deeds is absolutely first-class.With just one click, he saw some clues.

"Mr. Xuande is willing to persuade Liu Jingzhou to cooperate with the general. When the time comes, the general will occupy the land of the three Kanto states, and we will send troops from Yingchuan... How can Cao Cao resist? The so-called opportunity cannot be missed, and it will never come again... ...I hope the general will think twice before making a decision."

The meaning is very clear.

After Cao Cao is eliminated, Qingzhou and Yanzhou will belong to you, and we will share Yuzhou equally with Liu Biao.

If such a situation really occurs, then Yuan Shao will occupy the position of the overlord of the Kanto.This kind of temptation made Yuan Shao's heart skip a beat.

It has to be said that Yuan Shao has long been dissatisfied with Cao Cao!
Why does a son of an eunuch occupy the land of the three states?And Dong Pi, who is only a son of a good family, what virtue and ability can he have, standing high above the temple?I, Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu, were born in the fourth generation and the third lord. When people in the world hear my name, who doesn’t applaud and praise me?When I was Lieutenant of Sili, Dong Pi and Cao Cao were just worthless.Now they are stealing the temple and occupying the vast fertile land...

"At this time, allow me to think twice. Mr. Sima can temporarily stay at my residence, and I will inform you as soon as there is news."

Sima Lang smiled and said: "The general is very kind, Lang is very grateful. However, the military affairs are heavy, and we need to rush back to Xuzhou earlier, otherwise it will be too late!"

The implication is: You should act quickly, or you will be too late when we defeat Cao Cao!

After sending Sima Lang away, Yuan Shao began to think about it.

A while later, he ordered people to find Tian Feng, Zhu Ling and others to discuss the matter of sending troops to attack Cao.

"I want to send troops from Jizhou to seize Qingyan and Qingzhou. Cao's thief stealing the country is really a thief who will bring disaster to the country and the people. What do you guys think?"

Tian Feng became anxious when he heard it!

Earlier, Yuan Shao exchanged more than ten thousand war horses for the grain and grass of the Three Kingdoms in Zhongshan, Changshan and Hejian.Tian Feng was not very happy... Yes, horses are indeed very important to Jizhou.But you can use that money, or even exchange it with the other party in other ways, how can you use food and grass?
It's good that Jizhou has a lot of money and food, but it can't stand such a toss.

Yes, just wait for the autumn harvest, and the grain and grass in Jizhou will be able to recover.But in case something goes wrong, your treasury will be empty!
Moreover, whoever you give food and grass to, you can't give it to Dong Pi!
It was a tiger, and it was hungry.When he is full, the next step is to get rid of you, Yuan Shao, what should you do?

The truth is correct, but Tian Feng really doesn't know the art of speaking.

Those who went straight to the point stood up to Yuan Shao.Yuan Shao is also a face-saving person, how could he tolerate Tian Feng's harsh and sharp words?
So, the horse was bought!
You Tian Feng are very good, don't handle what I asked you to do, and who cares how I trade with?How can I fight Cao Cao without a horse.Even if it is a confrontation with Dong Bi, without a strong cavalry army, how can it beat Dong Bi's hundreds of thousands of Guanzhong troops?

A rotten scholar!
Now, when Tian Feng heard that Yuan Shao was going to fight Cao Cao, he became anxious again.

"My lord, it is absolutely impossible!"

Yuan Shao felt unhappy immediately, frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Yuan Hao, why not?"

"Cao Cao, although he is a national thief, dominates the Guandong. He can be a friend, but never an enemy. Cao Cao is enough to share most of the pressure for us. If Cao Cao is not there, the lord will face Dong's army alone. Now Jizhou is weak , is the time to hide your strengths and bide your time, and preserve your strength. Raising troops rashly, not to mention whether you can defeat Cao Cao, even if you win, how do you know that the Dong thief in Guanzhong is indifferent?"

See what this says...

Zhu Linggaolan and the others smiled wryly in their hearts. Old man, please speak softly. Wouldn't it make the lord angry if you said that?

Simpi and Shenpei remained silent.After the two looked at each other, they hesitated for a moment, but did not stand up to speak for Tian Feng.

Yuan Shao was really furious: You old man, first you cursed me for an accident in Jizhou, and now you say that I can't beat Cao Cao, and I can't beat Dong Pi?

Suppressing his anger, Yuan Shao said calmly: "Yuan Hao, you don't know about military matters, so you should stop worrying about this matter. I have made up my mind on this matter."

Tian Feng knelt down and hit the floor with his head, "My lord, you can't send troops, you can't send troops. Liu Xuande is a traitor...that's an unfamiliar wolf! He said that, but how could you believe him? What? I think I didn’t agree with him when he went to Xuzhou. But you didn’t listen... As a result, once Liu Xuande went out, he didn’t come back, and took tens of thousands of you away...

Also, have you forgotten the matter of granting Xu You?

Liu Bei is plotting against you!You and Cao Cao have lost both sides in the fight, and he will be able to benefit from the fisherman, why don't you understand? "

These words are said in earnest.

But the loyal words were harsh, Yuan Shao could no longer suppress his anger.

Is Liu Xuande an unfamiliar wolf?What about you Tian Feng... eat my salary, but don't do anything for me.I asked you to track down the inner thief, but you haven't made any movement so far, pushing back and forth.That's all, what you said just now clearly meant that I was a fool and was played by Liu Bei?

"Tian Feng, don't say any more... It seems that you are too tired recently, go down and rest first... Somebody, take Mr. Yuan Hao home."

Sui Yuanjin took a few euphorbia soldiers, forked Tian Feng and went out.

Tian Feng still wanted to argue, Sui Yuanjin said in a low voice: "Mr. Tian, ​​don't talk any more! Are you about to get angry if you don't see the lord? Go back first, and when the lord's anger passes, he will naturally come to you."

Tian Feng was outside, sticking his cane to the ground, "Heaven kills me in Jizhou, heaven kills me in Jizhou!"

It was this sentence that made people hear it.That night, Yuan Shao sent people to arrest Tian Feng and imprison him in Yecheng Prison.

After driving Tian Feng away, Yuan Shao glanced at the people in the hall.

"The matter of dispatching troops is so decided... Ten days later, I will personally lead the army, and Gao Lan Han Qiong will follow the army to obey orders. Xinpi, you go to Chang'an again to trade horses and armaments with that Dong thief. This time, we When the battle is successful, we must defeat Cao Aman!"

"My lord... is wise!"

Everyone stood up and shouted in unison.

Just what are these people thinking?But no one knows.
