Chapter 2700: A Dream of Fetching Water from a Bamboo Basket
Self-examination and self-correction.
Although this word is somewhat biased towards the later system, it seems not difficult for these officials of the Han Dynasty to understand it.
Especially with Qiao and as an example.
The Hussars General said that the case of annexation was different from the past, but it was also very representative.
In the past, the corrupt officials were corrupt themselves, which in turn affected their families and children, but Qiao Ping could be said to be the members of his family who in turn affected him.
Well, actually we can’t say that Qiao Bing did nothing evil at all. He was simply implicated. It’s just that if Qiao Bing’s clan members were not so arrogant, maybe Qiao Bing could cover it up for a while. After all, in the feudal dynasty, truly honest officials were rare, and most of them were just greedy for more and less.
??Just like those very ordinary clerks in the palace of the Hussars, do they take two writing brushes and get some paper or something into their homes after work? It is certainly inevitable, and this kind of behavior is naturally wrong, but if it is because of this kind of thing, all the petty officials will be arrested, and it will be somewhat fussy.
Humans have two sides, animal and social.
?In terms of animal nature, the stronger the ability, the more resources it can occupy, just like being the alpha wolf among the wolves. In terms of sociality, it depends on the role it plays in the entire human society. The greater the role, the more resources will naturally be allocated to it.
However, there are always people who overestimate their position, such as Qiao Bing.
Also like Wei Kang.
Wei Kang was very proud and felt that he had successfully achieved his goal with a combination of skills.
Unlike Wei Duan''s caution, Wei Kang felt that Tian was the boss and his father was the second, so he was naturally the third. Even though his father repeatedly emphasized that he should work seriously and be careful as an official, although he appeared to be submissive on the surface, he actually had his own ideas in mind.
?? Wei Kang felt that his father Wei Duan’s ideas were outdated.
To do big things, you must do it early!
?Be cautious on the left and cautious on the right. Big things will really happen that day. It is impossible to say that people are too old to do anything. For example, Wei Kang thought that he could engage in a merger, so he took action, and wasn''t it successful?
??The moment he got the news, Wei Kang even had the urge to run to Wei Duan, tell him what he had done, and then look at his father''s stunned expression...
『I am no longer a child! 』
Wei Kang murmured in a low voice, and then smiled slightly.
?It''s still too early to start speaking now, he still has to prepare for the glory of the scripture conferring ceremony!
Accept orders in times of crisis, turn the tide, and then show your strength calmly and leisurely, and you will naturally get more space and a higher position!
Qiao Bing fell. The Hussar General must be worried that there is no suitable person to take over the teaching ceremony and expound the subtleties of the Tao Te Ching in front of the scripture collectors!
Wei Kang was thinking secretly.
The next step is to naturally build some momentum for yourself...
How to build momentum?
??Of course we invite the water army, bah, we invite the people to spread the word of mouth.
But what Wei Kang did not expect was that he was exposed precisely because of his second invitation to the navy.
…(/□＼*)…
Dali Temple.
Sima Yi is also young.
Sima Yi''s forbearance in history was partly due to nature, and partly forced by the situation. The successor after Cao Cao, Cao Cao didn''t learn much about his skills, but he learned a lot about his suspicious character, and the most important thing is that he was suspicious and had no strategy, he only knew how to fool around...
Now, Sima Yi is still quite energetic. At least as the chief minister of Dali Temple, he is not afraid of taking on tasks or challenges.
That’s right, Sima Yi felt that this was a challenge for him.
A challenge that appears to be aimed at Qiao Ming, but is actually aimed at him...
Sima Yi is actually suspicious, or in other words, people with lively minds always like to think more.
Why did you choose to go to Dali Temple to complain?
Why did someone come behind him as soon as he entered Dali Temple?
Why…
Sima Yi first checked inside Dali Temple and found no problems. Sima Yi was suspicious of Zhang Shi at first because Zhang Shi had been to Wufang Dojo before.
Although Zhang Shi said that he believed in the Five Directions Taoist Temple, so he went to the temple to cleanse his body and mind, Sima Yi did not believe Zhang Shi''s lies at all. Sima Yi believed that Zhang Shi must have gone to Wufang Taoist Temple because of something, and that he might be involved in the Qiao merger.
Later Zhang Shi invited himself to Hanzhong, which was almost equivalent to avoiding suspicion.
??But to avoid suspicion, after knowing some things, Zhang Shi did not report it to Sima Yi, the chief officer, which was naturally very problematic.
∣Based on the relevant circumstances, does Sima Yi think that someone is eyeing his position? So, this is a war?
?Well, this is a war against Dali Temple, a war against yourself!
Sima Yi thought of this and suddenly felt high in fighting spirit.
Sima Yizheng felt that he had no opponents during this period of time, so God was so pitiful that he gave him an opponent. Isn''t the value of a warrior on the battlefield reflected in the moment he cuts off the head of a powerful enemy?
Sima Yi was grinding the sword in his heart, and then his eyes were like knives aimed at everyone, including people in Dali Temple, such as Zhang Shi, but soon, Sima Yi ruled out Zhang Shi''s suspicion. .
?That is a dog. Unless its owner has other ideas, if a running dog bites others, it is seeking death.
So is it Guo Tu, Feng Ji, or someone else?
?Following Zhang Shi''s clue, Sima Yi also found Chen Ming in the Wugu Dojo.
『Master Chen, please take a seat. ” Sima Yi smiled slightly and said, “I asked Daoist Chen to come here to verify some matters. I’m sorry to trouble you, Daoist Chen...”
『Don’t dare, don’t dare. Just ask Dali Qing for your instructions. ” Chen Ming was a little cautious. After all, not everyone could smile and talk as usual when they arrived at Dali Temple.
Sima Yi nodded and said: "Daozhang Chen was oppressed by the Qiao clan in the Wufang Taoist Hall... When someone heard about it, he was also very angry." 』
Sima Yi spoke very slowly, as if he was feeling what he was feeling.
??Chen Ming exhaled slightly. Even though Qiao Bing has been defeated now, Chen Ming still feels a little uncomfortable when he thinks of the previous events.
But this was just the beginning. After the greetings were completed, Sima Yi asked directly: "Who is conspiring with Daochang Chen?" 』
Chen Ming was suddenly startled.
Sima Yi smiled, his eyes sharp.
??Chen Ming swallowed his saliva and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Sima Yi extending his hand to indicate, "Master Chen, please think carefully before speaking..."
??Chen Ming immediately swallowed the word "no" that he originally wanted to say along with his saliva.
Think about it, Chen Ming has not received any special benefits from Wei Kang, so there is no reason to cover up for Wei Kang. It is not Chen Ming''s responsibility to tell the truth, but lying will definitely cause problems, so why Is there any difficulty in choosing?
??Weikang, this name, fell into Sima Yi''s sight.
That’s it, Sima Yi’s eyes were like daggers.
It turned out to be Webster…
…ヽ(*.>Д<)o゜…
The streets of Chang''an.
?An idle man with his arms open and some black hair exposed staggered out of the alley.
There are hard-working people in any era, and of course there are also lazy people.
Some people are born with a taste for food and are lazy at work, and some people are accustomed to it, but most of them are acquired.
Those who are neither high nor low are like this idle man who always says he wants to do something big, but will never get up until midnight every day. As for big things, he has no direction and just talks about them every day. , "Grandpa is someone who wants to do great things!" Stop bothering me with this nonsense! 』
?No matter how big the event is, you still need to eat.
In the past few days, the idle man has received a job.
It’s a very simple job, just spread some words.
He is familiar with this matter, and he is even considered an expert.
Even if there is no reward, he will find someone to talk to every day.
?So the idle man reached under his robe and scratched it while walking towards the archway.
The summer sun is a bit strong, and the idle man feels a little dizzy.
Hungry. The idle man is going to talk to someone casually today, and that’s it. As for doing things with all his heart and soul...
Can a person who can do his job conscientiously still be an idle man?
Hey, do you know? Something big has happened recently..."
The idle man was chatting and squatting down at the well next to the archway. He didn''t care about the indecent things exposed in his crotch and said to a few people nearby, "What a big deal!" Hehehe...』
"oh? What is it? ” someone said.
Xianhan laughed a few more times and shook his head triumphantly, "Brothers, have you heard about the Wufang Dojo?" 』
“…” Two or three people on the side seemed to exchange glances, and then someone asked, “I heard a little bit, but not carefully. If you know something, you might as well talk about it.” 』
??Xianhan laughed, then touched his belly, "Oh, I got up late this morning, and I haven''t had to take a bite yet..."
“Tsk…” The person next to him smacked his lips, then took out a small oil paper bag from his sleeve, and then took out a piece of dry biscuit, “I have a piece of biscuit here, if my brother dislikes it, forget it…”
『Don’t dislike it, don’t dislike it! Look at what you said, how can you dislike it? ! ” The idle man took it with his hands, then stuffed it into his mouth, and started chewing it. However, after getting the food, he didn’t show any pretense anymore. While eating, he said, “This...this Five Directions Dojo, Hey, hey, who was not arrested? Hey, hey, hey, no one will be hosting the sutra conferring ceremony now..."
As the idle man spoke, he didn''t notice someone moving next to him.
?Of course, even if he noticed it, he would probably not take it seriously. After all, isn''t this the case with spreading rumors? At first, one or two people would listen, and then someone would join in, and it would become a group of people listening.
So, let me tell you, for this matter, you still need to find someone reliable, at least someone who understands the Taoist scriptures, and someone with a clean financial background, right? If we meet someone like that Qiao again, will the general lose his face? "When the idle man saw more people, his interest became more aroused, and his voice became louder, "It is true that among the three assistants in Chang''an, there are many who are clean and knowledgeable, but at the same time they must be proficient in Taoism. There are not many experienced young talents..."
Someone looked at the idle man and asked, "Who do you think this suitable young talent should be?" 』
??The idle man was very proud and said, "Let me tell you, who else can this be?" Wei Langjun! 』
Wei Langjun? Wei Yuanzheng? ” The man laughed and said, “Wei Yuan is just this age... Haha, you can’t be called young at all! 』
Hey! I’m talking about Mr. Wei Shaolang! ” The idle man waved his hand and said, “Young Master! Mr. Wei Shaolang! Do you know it? This can be said to be young and promising, well-informed..."
??The idle man was preaching so vigorously that he didn''t notice the people around him exchanging glances at all...
You Wensi.
In fact, many times, when national institutions are activated, many things cannot be hidden.
Even though Wei Kang felt that he was very careful, as long as he came into contact with other people, he would eventually leave some traces, and these traces were gradually revealed under the investigation of Youwensi.
Kan Ze frowned.
The Youwen Division in Chang''an Sanjia area has relatively strong control. Once it starts to focus on a certain matter, it quickly collects relevant information.
?Especially Wei Kang is still looking for navy at this time!
Almost the same as Sima Yi, and even the instinctive reaction of most officials was that this matter was not Wei Kang''s alone, but the whole Wei''s matter, at least Wei Duan was instigating it from behind.
What?
It was only Wei Kang who did it. How is this possible?
What''s more, it was only when the Hussars General said that each noble clan and each official should investigate and correct themselves to prevent the clan members from committing crimes...
What does this mean?
Come on, report it!
…ε(┬┬﹏┬┬)3…
Many times, parents or relatives are the last people to know some negative news about their children.
Wei Duan encountered this situation.
??Wei Duan was actually restless at first.
At first, Wei Duan wanted to get the position under Pang Tong''s buttocks. However, after he and Pang Tong had an early arm-wrestling session, he became more at ease with Pang Tong. After being beaten several times, he became more relaxed. When you realize that you really can''t handle it, you become honest.
?This is just like in a pack of wolves, there are always a few wolves who will test the attitude of the next wolf from time to time. It is a test, not a real challenge to see the blood. If the attitude of the alpha wolf is still strong, then these wolves will tuck their tails obediently, but as long as the alpha wolf shows weakness, these wolves will take advantage of it, and then further attempt to gain the position of the alpha wolf.
After some testing, Wei Duan believed that he was indeed out of luck, and that the nobles of Sanfu in Chang''an were also crippled and ran away. The rest were either bribed by Fei Qian or had their own opinions and would not fight with him at all. When Wei Duan comes together, they can''t join forces.
?Under such circumstances, Wei Duan stood in line honestly, obeyed Fei Qian''s instructions, and did whatever he was asked to do...
?The Shenluyuan, which seems to have infinite scenery, is actually like a hodgepodge, stewed in a pot, with everything in it. Only Wei Duan knows the taste.
He did not tell Wei Kang about the hardships Wei Duan suffered outside, or what Wei Duan thought he suffered. After all, as a parent, no one wants to show their weakness in front of their children, or show their inability to do something.
As a result, Wei Duan left a wrong impression on Wei Kang...
his father is very powerful.
His father is very capable.
?His father seems to be very humble, but in fact he is the big boss behind the scenes.
Senluyuan, is it the only one for the entire Han Dynasty?
The laws and orders under the Hussar are all issued from Shenluyuan!
Even the Hussars say they must abide by the law, so if you round it off to the nearest 100 million, is it equivalent to the whole Shanxi area being Tingshenluyuan? Rounding things off a bit, all the Han people are going to listen to the Legal Academy?
What fame and authority this is!
Every law and order in the world comes from the law of participation. Once the law comes out, no one dares to disobey it!
Wei Kang has always thought so, and then he felt that Wei Duan was unwilling to let him enter the core circle of officials of Chang''an Sanfu, and instead asked Wei Kang to go to Longxi. It was not that Wei Duan did not have the ability, but that Wei Duan believed that Wei Kang He was still immature and needed experience, so he was deliberately sent to Longxi. Otherwise, since you can take up the post in Longxi, you can naturally take up the post in Chang''an. Just like some people in later generations can get a place to go to college, of course they can also arrange a paid official position.
Wei Kang was right about one thing. Wei Duan really felt that he was not mature enough. But Wei Kang was also wrong about one thing. His father was not as powerful as he thought.
Children who cheat on their parents are not only found in later generations.
『My father is the Chancellor of the Legal Academy! ” Wei Kang said.
? Wei Kang said this sentence very smoothly, just like those young college students in later generations who always like to say that when they leave the society and enter the company, they will be the company today and the company tomorrow. He was very proud and thought that one day he could become the pride of his father.
But what Wei Kang didn''t expect was that not only did he not bring pride, he also brought trouble to Wei Duan.
Big trouble.
Wei Duan had always thought that Wei Kang was in Longxi, serving as the county magistrate obediently and accumulating political capital, so when he heard that Wei Kang was involved in the Wugu Dojo incident, his first reaction was not to believe it.
Disbelief.
Although Wei Duan also knows that his children may not be as well-behaved as he usually says, but just like parents are reluctant to let their children see their incompetent side, parents are also reluctant to let others know about their children. He was naughty and ignorant, so most of the time Wei Duan said that his child was better than his best, calling him a "dog", but he still felt like a "tiger" in his heart.
Only this time, he was bitten by a "tiger".
In fact, there is nothing too difficult to confirm about this matter. When Wei Duan and a few people hurried out of the general''s mansion and rushed to Changling, Wei Kang''s hiding place, he saw the person Wei Duan was familiar with. Several Wei Duan guards appeared, and Wei Duan''s face suddenly turned red, and then all the blood quickly receded, leaving only a patch of gray.
Where is the evil son appearing? Let him come and see you! ” Wei Duan shouted loudly, his voice and look fierce.
Upon seeing this, several Webster guards quickly went to find Wei Kang.
Wei Kang was a little at a loss, but he still mustered up the courage to go forward and greeted him, "Father...Father...you, why are you here..."
Wei Duan felt like something was knocking in the corner of his head, "You traitor!" Why are you here? ! 』
?At that moment, Wei Duan still hoped that Wei Kang only came to Chang''an for some other business, and that it was just a misunderstanding by the people who heard about it.
"Ah, this..." Wei Kang hesitated, his eyes rolling around.
Wei Duan felt that his heart was sinking, and his head was being pulled upward by something. It was as if his whole body was being torn in two, and he was in excruciating pain.
It’s over…
??If Wei Kang came here for official business, then he would definitely not have this reaction, this expression, this unspeakable expression!
Wei Duan was furious and could not speak. He stretched out his hand tremblingly and was about to hit Wei Kang. Wei Kang subconsciously shrank his head to avoid it.
?Wei Duan slapped the opponent in the air, and then he fell down.
Wei Kang was stunned for a moment, "Huh?" Father, father...you, what''s wrong with you? 』
