Chapter 11: Deep in the City(2/2)

Everyone knew about the country. At that time, people around him were talking about it, saying that all the things he said before Xiang Fuxing were actually just pretending to be crazy and pretending to be stupid, just to gain fame..."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Pei's face showed surprise, but Gongsun Xun was dumbfounded.

By the way, the Han Dynasty had a civil service system. For a long time, even the children of aristocratic families had to become famous before becoming officials, so people often did all kinds of unimaginable things in order to become famous. Many times, in order to become famous, these people would do anything without any difficulty.

Artificially create difficulties and then face them head on. But nowadays, most of the methods have become tired, so naturally we have to find another way.

Of course, there will be more weird things to come!

For example, someone's father died, and he dug a dirt nest in front of his father's grave and lived in it naked. It is said that he did not go home for several years, and he was a very filial son. However, the court later ordered the house to be built.

It was only then that he accidentally discovered that this guy had a bunch of sons in a few years!

‘Executive scholars do not know how to read;

If you are filial and honest, your father will leave;

Han Su is as white and turbid as mud,

Gaudi Liang will be as timid as a chicken.’

Do you really think this nursery rhyme is an originless wind?

No wonder Shen Pei suddenly realized it.

However, Gongsun Xun still didn't believe it: "To be honest with Gongqi and Zhengnan, I faced Xiang Fuxing twice, and I really can't tell that this person is being treacherous..."

"It's normal for a prince to say this." Ju Zong explained with a chuckle. "That day, Xiang Xu rode his horse and chariot straight into Handan, but within four or five days he became at a loss. In the end, he lay down in the backyard of the official temple and stopped serving.

, Prince Fang Bo sent someone to ask, but he said that he was following Huang Lao's way, governing by doing nothing, and scolded the prince for being ignorant... My brother was still at home at that time, and he once told me that this man probably knew it in his heart.

Yes, it’s just that he pretended to be crazy and stupid for half his life to get a high position, but when he wanted to enjoy the splendor of life, he couldn’t do anything else but pretend to be crazy and stupid!”

At this point, Shen Pei next to him was also dumbfounded, while the young Juzong took a lot of effort to hold back his laughter and continued: "In the end, the fake madness turns into the real madness, and the fake stupidity also turns into a real madness.

It's so stupid... After all, what else can a person who only pretends to be crazy do to lie high all day long? Of course, in the past year or so, it is said that Mr. Xiang has also learned to curse, which is also a great improvement."

Gongsun Xun's expression changed again and again, but he had gained so much weight that he couldn't hold back his laughter: "Then from Gongsun's point of view, what should we do?"

"It's easy." Juzong said casually. "You need to know one important point, that is, this person is embarrassing you just for the sake of embarrassment. He does not really want to go against you, but also to antagonize you.

The matter itself has nothing to do with it..."

This tongue twister made Gongsun Xun even more speechless.

"So," Ju Zong finally couldn't help laughing. "You might as well find a famous Taoist and write to him to argue with Huang Lao. After he puts his mind on scolding this person, you can then send him a random person.

When a county official goes in to ask for a seal, he naturally doesn't care."

Gongsun Xun slowly nodded and let out a sigh of relief: "If it weren't for Gongsun Xun, this would actually be a joke."

Juzong was modest: "I'm just a local, I know a lot more."

Gongsun Xun was embarrassed and speechless.

At this time, the attendant outside the door suddenly shouted again: "Your Majesty, Commander Lu, Commander Han and Mr. Lou are back together, and they have brought back a Taoist priest!"

Gongsun Xun was happy at first, but then became solemn.

But Shen Pei was just the opposite. He was solemn at first, but then he was happy again.

——————I am the dividing line between high and low all day long————

"The characteristic of (Xiang Xu) later, when he arrived, he paid homage to the Prime Minister of Zhao. When he was an official, people at that time said that he must change his style and become frugal. However, Xu even rode a fresh chariot and rode a good horse. The world suspected that he was a fake." - "
