Chapter 413 Huang Chengyan’s family is also here? 【Ask for monthly ticket】
After confirming the location, Xu Huang called Xun Chen, and together they rode away from Wancheng and headed south.
After walking for more than thirty miles, I saw a dozen carriages in the distance, followed by one or two hundred people, carrying bamboo slips and other items. It seemed that they were related to reading.
"No wonder Mr. Wenhe has been looking for celebrities such as Sima Hui and Pang Degong. Their collection of books alone is worth wooing."
Xu Huang was very happy that celebrities from Jingxiang and Xiang took the initiative to vote, which would not only strengthen the court's momentum, but also reduce Liu Biao's prestige and even lose his face.
A celebrity living in seclusion in Xiangyang would rather flee all the way to Chang'an than serve as an official in Jingzhou. Isn't this a slap in the face to Chi Guoguo?
Xun Chen said:
"When my family came here, they also brought countless books... Before coming to Wuguan, the whole family started copying the books into notebooks, but there were only dozens of thin volumes. The clumsiness of the bamboo slips can be seen."
Bamboo slips are not only troublesome to make, but even the bamboo slips made with great effort cannot contain a few words, so classical Chinese texts are simplified and simplified, and the fewer words used, the better.
After writing, the bamboo slips must be properly preserved to prevent them from being eaten by insects and rotting, which is very troublesome.
The Xun family had accumulated bamboo slips and scrolls for generations, but when they replaced them with notepads, the volume was reduced by dozens of times.
When setting off from Jizhou to Chang'an, the family specially allocated sixty or seventy strong laborers to carry those bamboo slips. However, after copying, seven or eight-year-old children could carry them all in their hands.
This is the progress of culture!
Xun Chen sighed with emotion and went up to him with Xu Huang.
"May I ask who is Mr. Pang?"
Soon, a middle-aged scribe got out of the carriage with a smile, straightened his clothes first, and then bowed and saluted:
"A village man from the mountains has met Governor Xu and Changshi Xun."
When he first met the scout, he had already asked clearly about the person in charge in Wancheng, so when they met now, he took the initiative to say hello without any airs of celebrity.
It is also interesting to say that several of Pang Degong's friends, whether Huang Chengyan or Sima Hui, were all good-tempered people, but the students they taught, whether Pang Tong or Xu Shu, were all brave.
Even Brother Liang had the feat of scolding Wang Lang to death.
But Pang Degong has never argued with anyone, let alone Sima Hui. No matter who reviews him, he is very good, so much so that there is an idiom of "Mr. Good".
However, compared to Sima Hui, Pang Degong seems to prefer giving nicknames to people. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a master of foreign nicknames among the three countries.
He thought Zhuge Liang was a great talent, so he gave him the nickname "Wolong". He thought his nephew Pang Tong was a great talent, so he nicknamed him "Feng Chu". As for his good friend Sima Wei, he was not spared, and was called "Shui Jing" by him. .
Although Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang are called both in the original work and in history, in fact, when Pang Degong was given the nickname, he distinguished the level of the two.
The nickname "Wolong" literally means a coiled dragon. As long as he takes the initiative to stand up, Zhuge Liang can control the wind and rain and transform into a dragon.
And [Phoenix Chu] refers to the phoenix that has not grown up and needs to grow up to soar in the nine heavens.
In other words, if Zhuge Liang wants to become famous, he just needs to turn around; but if Pang Tong wants to become famous, he has to grow up over a certain period of time.
The plot in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" also illustrates this point.
Zhuge Liang did nothing. When he woke up at home, he was waiting for the master who would assist him all his life. From then on, the monarch and his ministers were in harmony, creating a legend that will last forever.
Pang Tong's career as an official was relatively tortuous. He first went to Cao Cao to offer a conspiracy, and then defected to Liu Bei. As a result, Xuande, who judged people based on appearance, failed to see Pang Tong's inner beauty and randomly arranged the post of county magistrate.
If Zhang Fei hadn't visited various counties and discovered Pang Tong, a great talent, Mr. Feng Chu might have died in that small county town.
It is a pity that Pang Tong, the phoenix, died in Fengpo before he could spread his wings and fly. This broke Longzhong's countermeasures and caused Ji Han to kill himself before he could gain momentum.
If Pang Tong had not died, Zhuge Liang would not have left Jingzhou. He and Guan Yu would not only be able to improve the relationship between the Jingxiang gentry and Jiangdong, but they might also be able to cross the Han River, open up Wancheng and Xuchang, and rescue Emperor Xian.
Xu Huang and Xun Chen quickly dismounted and returned the gift, expressing their welcome to Pang Degong.
While they were chatting, a middle-aged scribe also got out of the carriage behind. Mr. Pang Degong quickly introduced:
"This is my good friend Huang Chengyan. He likes Bagua formations and ingenious mechanisms. He heard that I was going to Chang'an. In order to solve my doubts, he took his family with him."
Upon hearing that it was Huang Chengyan who was relatively high on Jing Xiang's list, Xu Huang and Xun Chen met again and asked:
"I wonder why Mr. Chengyan is confused?"
"Wait a moment, you two."
Huang Chengyan turned around and came to the carriage and said through the window:
"Yueying, bring over the music box given by General Cheng Lian... When we get to Chang'an, dad will help you find out how this thing makes sounds."
Soon, the curtain of the car window opened, and a white hand stretched out and handed out a winding music box.
Huang Chengyan came to Xu Huang and Xu Huang with a music box, twisted the clockwork, and the tune of "Auld Lang Syne" rang out.
"A few months ago, General Cheng Lian visited us in Jingzhou, gave us some rare gadgets, and told us about the changes in Chang'an... We were hesitant until some time ago, when Han Sheng's men returned to Jingzhou to pick up their relatives. I know that the fortune of the country is getting better and better day by day, and the rumors of starvation and death everywhere are false rumors from the state capital."
Historically, Huang Chengyan was born in the Huang family of Jiangxia. He married Cai Mao's sister and was brother-in-law to Liu Biao. His son-in-law was Zhuge Liang, the first prime minister in history. He had a prominent position among the Jingxiang gentry.
But now Liu Biao has not married Cai's daughter, and Huang Chengyan is not related to him, so when he heard that Pang Degong was going to Chang'an, Lao Huang immediately followed him without any hesitation.
Seeing Huang Chengyan take out the music box, Pang Degong also took out a small, crystal clear hourglass from his arms:
"This is a gift from General Cheng Lian. He said that the time it takes for the sand to flow out is one hour, and two hours is one hour. I have studied it for many days and found that this thing is indeed accurate and exquisite."
Looking at the small and exquisite hourglass and listening to the beautiful music from the music box, Xu Huang was pleasantly surprised.
Unexpectedly, when Lu Bu and Huang Zhong sent back those soldiers who were thinking about their families, such a chain reaction would occur.
Of course, this is also related to Cheng Lian's last visit.
He was obviously looking for Zhuge Liang, but he didn't expect that he would visit all the famous people in Jingxiang and give him targeted gifts.
Pang Degong liked to think, so he gave him a small hourglass; Huang Chengyan's family liked strange things, so they gave him a music box. Anyway, they tried every means to arouse each other's curiosity.
As long as you are curious, there is a chance to take the bait.
This time not only Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan came, but also Pang Degong's nephew Pang Tong, Xu Shu and Shi Tao who came to Jingzhou to seek refuge, Zhuge Liang's future friends Cui Zhouping, Meng Jian and others also defected to Chang'an.
Xu Huang saluted respectfully and asked:
"Isn't Mr. Decao in Jingzhou?"
Duke Pang carefully put away the hourglass and then said:
"Shuijing is from Yingchuan. When General Cheng Lian came to Jingzhou, he happened to be there. However, some time ago, before Yuan Gongluo went to Runan to plunder, Shuijing returned to Yingchuan."
ah?
Sima Hui isn't here?
Huang Chengyan knew what Xu Huang was worried about, so he smiled and said:
"Don't worry, Prefect. General Cheng Lian's gift to Mr. Shui Jing is a book about bandits killing people and stealing goods. It's called "Water Margin·Traditional Chinese Edition" by Lao Shizi. The book seems to be a set of several books. General Cheng Lian only gave the first one. "Ben, if Mr. Shui Jing wants to read the subsequent chapters, he can only go to Chang'an to find him."
Xu Huang:? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Damn it, Cheng Lian is really not afraid of getting beaten. Don’t you know how hard it is to chase him?
Xun Chen also looked shocked. He didn't expect Cheng Lian to use this method to make a nest. When Sima Wei finished reading the first Water Margin, even if his legs were paralyzed, he would crawl to Chang'an to ask for the next plot.
This move is too cruel!
It can be confirmed that after reading the book, Sima Hui will definitely go to Chang'an as soon as possible, and even bring his family with him.
The chief professor of Chang'an University has been found!
Xu Huang took the walkie-talkie and contacted Liu Xie in Chang'an City, reporting on Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan's coming to vote, and also thanked Cheng Lian by the way.
After the report was completed, he contacted the frontline headquarters of Hedong County and reported the matter to Jia Xu.
After listening to Xu Huang's introduction, Jia Xu, who was leading Zhuge Liang and Li Yan to do tactical deductions, sipped his tea with a smile and talked about the intelligence he had just obtained:
"Huang Chengyan is coming, how does Kong Ming view this?"
Zhuge Liang said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone:
"Don't force it, don't avoid it. If Huang Yueying and I are destined, we will come together; if we are not destined, even if we force it, it will be in vain."
Everyone's destiny has changed, so there is no need to think about it anymore.
Li Yan asked in surprise:
"Huang Chengyan comes from the Huang family in Jiangxia, how can he actually come here?"
Jia Xu explained:
"What Zhengfang doesn't know is that wealthy families don't like to put their eggs in one basket. They usually make multiple bets to ensure the smooth continuation of the family."
In the original work of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the Xun family made the most bets. Yuan Shao, Sun Quan, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and other princes all had Xun family officials serving as officials.
Even Zhuge Liang's family is divided into several camps.
Zhuge Liang and Zhuge were both in the Shu Han; Zhuge Jin was in Soochow, and his younger brother Zhuge Dan was in Cao Wei. Both of them were high-ranking generals or prime ministers and became important ministers of various forces.
Zhuge Jin's son Zhuge Ke also became a powerful official in Soochow, but unfortunately he was later executed, and all the Zhuge clan in Soochow were annihilated.
Fortunately, when Zhuge Liang had no sons, he adopted Zhuge Jin's son Zhuge Qiao as his adopted son. So after Zhuge Ke was killed, Zhuge Qiao's son Zhuge Pan resumed his status as a descendant of Zhuge Jin.
Now the Zhuge family is not so tortuous. They all settled in Chang'an. Zhuge Jin even stayed with Cai Yong to help organize documents and books.
As Zhuge Liang's brother, everyone still wanted to win over him. Guo Jia wanted to recruit him into the Secrecy Bureau, and Tian Feng wanted him to participate in revising the law. However, considering Zhuge Jin's character, he was ultimately allowed to follow Cai Yong. around.
First he worked as a secretary, and then he became an official. In history, Zhuge Jin was promoted to general, Zuo Duhu, and was granted the title of Marquis of Xuancheng. He was one of the most important ministers in Soochow.
Now in Chang'an, it is natural to cultivate him well.
As for Zhuge Dan, Cao Wei's general who conquered the east, he is still young now and works as a companion in the palace with Ma Tie and others.
The joining of Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan gave Jia Xu a clearer plan for Chang'an University.
The medical school is now in shape, and Zhang Zhongjing is making preparations to recruit some imperial doctors to it later. Not to mention how awesome doctors will be trained, but it is still very easy to train some barefoot doctors.
In addition to the medical school, Lao Jia originally planned to establish a liberal arts college and a military college, but considering the needs of compulsory education, he planned to add a normal college.
With a high education as a teacher and an upright role model, Sima Hui is very suitable for the position of dean.
Normal colleges should vigorously train teachers, so as to promote the promotion of compulsory education and break the monopoly of knowledge by aristocratic families.
The great scholar Cai Yong was in charge of the liberal arts college, focusing on training civil servants.
As for Lu Zhi, another great scholar, it would be better to be in charge of the Military Academy. After all, among the three heroes of the late Han Dynasty, he was a very outstanding general in both civil and military aspects.
The deputy deans of the Military Academy are naturally Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song.
In another two years, several veterans will take a back seat, allowing them to continue to shine while retiring in Chang'an.
By that time, a law school should also be established and begin to train police officers, forensic scientists, and law-related professionals who are good at investigating and solving cases.
In addition, the College of Engineering responsible for industry, the College of Geology responsible for mineral mining, the College of Agriculture responsible for planting, etc. all need to be prepared.
As for the military academy, it should also be expanded again, or even become an independent military university or national defense university, and the intelligence, staff, recruitment, training, equipment, logistics and other departments in military operations should be refined to make military personnel more professional and standardized.
When she thought that there was still a lot of work to be done, Jia Xu couldn't help but pinch her eyebrows... It was still a long way from officially retiring and enjoying happiness in the real world!
Over in Chang'an, Liu Xie came to the real world after understanding the situation and reported these things to Li Yu.
Li Yu did not expect Cheng Lian to make meritorious deeds again:
"For meritorious service, you should be rewarded. Give Cheng Lian a title and encourage him."
Liu Xie quickly agreed:
"When Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan come to Chang'an, I will make Chenglian the Marquis of Guannei and the Prime Minister of Honglu Temple."
A good military general, but he somehow became the HR of the Han Dynasty. Now that he is promoted, he can only play a role in diplomacy and recruiting talents.
Looking back and waiting for the older generation of officials to leave, Cheng Lian's status will be very transcendent.
Because most of the officials in the imperial court were recommended by him, he can be called the number one bole in the Three Kingdoms!
In the evening, after Mu Guiying had eaten and drank enough, she sat in the yard and had a video call with Diao Chan.
"Wow, there is still sunshine over there? It's already dark in Yinzhou."
"It doesn't get dark until eight or nine o'clock here. Sister Zhou took me to eat a lot of delicious food, and also went to the museum to see the mummies. Those corpses have not decayed after thousands of years. It was so shocking to see."
Mu Guiying said with a smile:
"What's the point? I've seen people tens of billions of years old put on facial masks... Fairy Little Chan, have you bought me a gift?"
"I bought a bunch of them, and I also selected some super large nuts and dried fruits to be sent to you by express delivery. After receiving them, I asked my husband to make them into marzipan. They will definitely be delicious."
"Okay, we'll start working on it as soon as we receive the express delivery."
You just made up the numbers... Diao Chan drank a delicious Western-style drink and walked out of the Grand Bazaar with Zhou Ruotong while chatting. She planned to go to the nearby night market for a while and then go back. Tomorrow, she would fly to Kanas and then to Yili University. Grassland, then turn around to southern Xinjiang, then fly directly to Southwest China to see pandas, times! fire! pot!
Li Yu brought a glass of freshly squeezed watermelon juice to Mu Guiying:
"Don't be envious. When your household registration is completed, I will let you go out for fun."
Her Majesty the Queen was still lamenting that there was no such thing as darkness over there:
"I thought it was getting dark together, but I didn't expect the time difference to be so big... I really envy those smaller countries. No matter the customs or geographical location, they are not much different. Unlike China, the gap between the north and the south is like a different country. of."
If you want to bury the country, just say so... Li Yu silently complained, turned on his phone, and liked Zhou Ruotong and Diao Chan's Moments one by one.
Needless to say, Li Yu was a little greedy after seeing the delicacies from the Western Regions. When he got the chance, he went around and tasted the delicious local snacks.
Early the next morning, after Li Yu had breakfast, he went to buy a bunch of nuts and various dried fruits, and tinkered with malen in the kitchen, which is the cut cake sold by Lun Ke.
The express delivery sent by Professor Zhou will arrive in a few days. Now let’s practice making some to avoid wasting good ingredients.
Mu Guiying grabbed a handful of raisins and asked while eating:
"I read online that many people have been deceived when buying cut cakes. Is there any way not to be deceived?"
"Yes, no matter what price the other party quotes, I will kill the one who only buys fifty yuan, not even a cent more... But my personal suggestion is not to eat it. It's not worth buying something to make me angry. "
Li Yu was complaining about cutting cakes, but Mu Guiying keenly discovered business opportunities:
"Hey, I can do business with foreigners like this in the future. I agree on how much a pound will cost. When the accounts are settled, it will be changed to a gram. They will either admit defeat or use all their property to compensate for my mental losses..."
Li Yu suddenly became happy:
"Aren't you just robbing me openly?"
"It's just an open fight... Do we still need spring-like warmth to treat aliens?"
In order to prevent this girl from playing too much, Li Yu reminded:
"Don't bully tribes that believe in the Empress. Only bully those alien tribes that believe in different beliefs and don't agree with Chinese civilization."
"Yes Sir!"
While the two of them were busy studying maren candy in the kitchen, Shuihu said that the world of Yue was a different story.
Yue Fei dressed like a noble prince, rode a snow-white horse, and Zhou Tong, who was dressed in brocade clothes, led a dozen cavalrymen and left Qilin Village for Neihuang County.
Today is the day for the martial arts competition. Although Tang Huai, Zhang Xian, Wang Gui and others did not participate in the competition as in the original work, Zhou Tong, as the examiner, cannot be absent.
Of course, the result of the game is not important. The important thing is to tell Yue Fei about his marriage this time and to draw the county magistrate Li Chun into his camp.
"Pengju, today I will arrange for you to test-shoot the bow and arrow at the right time. Don't be nervous, just show it calmly."
The results of the martial arts competition and examination are not important. Anyway, no matter who jumps, they will eventually become a stepping stone for Yue Fei to become famous.
This is also the case in the original work. Yue Fei rode Juechen and became a martial arts boy in Neihuang County, and then became a martial arts scholar. Finally, in the process of winning the martial arts champion, he killed King Xiaoliang with one shot, and the martial arts champion who was about to win was also It just flew away.
I hope I will have another chance to meet King Xiaoliang in the future and challenge him again... Yue Fei shook his head and galloped towards the county seat at the lead!
