Where there are people, there will be troubles, and where there are things, there will be troubles.

Humans have actually very poor methods to solve this problem. Apart from war and violence, there is only the way to go to the meeting.

When the Jiankun people held a meeting in the grassland to discuss the next strategy, the meeting was also held in the office of the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty in the far south.

Unlike relatively simple topics on the grassland, things in the Prime Minister's Mansion are as complicated as an ant nest that has been opened.

In fact, in Xu County, the emperor Liu Xie hoped that he could do something, but he had nothing to do. The court meeting every three days could be said and done?

In the Prime Minister's Office, busy officials, documents coming and going, and endless topics to discuss, just fill all the time of every day, and even during meals, they are discussing and discussing.

Cao Cao did not doubt people, but he didn't need to doubt people. In history, even though he knew that Sima Yi was capable, he was not allowed to stay idle, so he didn't need to. Therefore, not everyone under Cao Cao could take advantage of the situation happily, at least not in these few days.

The Censorate happily started to vent Kong's family. Although Cao Cao's side had always maintained a strange silence and did not speak, it was impossible to say that they were completely ignoring it.

"The people from the Censorate were stopped by the people in Lu State, causing a fight... The Censorate was injured by three people, and two others lived in the post station and stayed in the door and did not leave."

Xi Lu himself would definitely not go to Lu State in person. He sent several subordinates to Lu State to cooperate with the investigation and evidence of the "crime" related to Kong's family. As a result, these censors aroused a lot of anger after they arrived in Lu State.

The specific process is not very clear, but generally speaking, the officials of the Censorate have been in the upper court for a long time and feel that they are great. This time, they are acting on behalf of the emperor and doing things, of course, they are the first goal of political achievements. They just want to finish it early and get the relevant evidence and go back to get promoted and get promoted.

The Kong family has a good reputation in the Lu State. Ordinary people are relatively unbelievable that the officials who suddenly fell down. These officials are angry and say that these unruly people do not cooperate with their work...

Can't explain it carefully?

After all, this matter has no big connection with those ordinary people, but is related to the Kong family. However, the officials of the Censorate look down on these ordinary people at all. They think that talking to these people with a good voice is simply a loss of face!

And who said there is no "good" explanation?

Haven’t these officials already stood among the people and communicated with the people face to face?

Of course, it might be better if those officials don’t speak their own officials, keep their mouths representing the emperor, or they always stretch out their fingers, stare at each other and shout what you want to do, do you want to rebel, etc., but who knows?

Perhaps for these officials, if they cannot shake their might in front of the people, why are they going to be officials?

If you can't return home with brocade clothes, it will be meaningless even if you become a prince.

As a result, a fight inevitably aroused.

The soldiers in the county and county that were supposed to maintain order tilted their hands and weakened their feet, saying that they had tried their best and did not stop the angry people. Then these officials were beaten up.

Immediately, these officials ordered people to arrest the people who beat people.

Suddenly, the country of Lu became boiling.

『What can I do?』

"This is good, Kong's family has added another crime."

"So what is Kong Wenju doing now?"

"Haha, I'm still studying in the hometown of Confucius in Lu."

"Reading? Haha, haha, this Kong Wenju is really..."

"Are you confident and fearless?"

"No, very stupid."

In the hall, everyone was talking about the affairs of Kong.

Cao Cao was in the upper head, with no expression on his face.

Guo Jia sat down, tilted his body, and supported his head with one hand, as if he was trying to spread himself on a table, and the other hand was playing with a jade seal, as if the jade seal had many mechanisms and was full of fun, or as if he had to adhere to the salted fish strategy and lie down for tens of thousands of years.

However, Guo Jia's salted fish strategy did not come true. Old Cao turned his eyes to Guo Jia, then turned a blind eye to Guo Jia's lazy appearance and asked directly: "What do you think Fengxiao?"

Guo Jia sat down a little and bowed his hand and said, "Just watch the changes."

Cao Cao stared at Guo Jia, his voice also increased a little, "How can I sit and watch at this time? Lu's country is boiling, as if it is exhausted!"

Guo Jia was not afraid at all, "Since that's the case, it would be better to ask the Shangshu Ling to issue an announcement to Lu State... Well, just say that the officials of the Censorate's work is simple and crude, and order to admit their mistakes, and Chen Ken apologizes...

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes.

Guo Jia smiled slightly.

The Censorate did not respond. The Secretary of State issued instructions and made public notices. Is this criticizing and stopping the actions of these Censorate officials, or is it encouraging them to continue to act?

Does Chen Ken apologize? You must be Chen Ken!

Cao Cao smiled, then nodded and said, "That's it!"

Everyone gave each other a wink and exchanged gazes.

For most people, the conflict that occurred in Lu State was just an event, but for people in the court, there was never a separate event.

In Cao Cao's eyes, Xi Lu was just a clown.

Because what Xi Lu does seems to be exquisite and can bring benefits to him, but political things can never belong to one person.

Just like Cao Cao, behind him is the interests of the Xiahou clan of the Cao family, and there are also the interests of these close ministers who followed Cao Cao, such as Xun or Guo Jia, Dong Zhao, Cheng Yu and others.

Therefore, Cao Cao killed people under the Gongmen City of Xuxian County. Emperor Liu Xie thought it was the killing of all the officials, and Xi Lu thought it was Cao Cao who killed people. But in fact, Cao Cao was not killing for him, but for the overall interests of these political groups behind Cao Cao.

That's right, it is the overall interests of Cao Cao's political group, not the overall interests of the entire Shandong gentry system.

In other words, Cao Cao raised his whip. On the largest and old landlord class of the Han Dynasty, he drew blood marks from the body, urging this entrenched giant to move forward and catch up with Guanzhong's pace.

Cao Cao was thinking about how to start and promote these big landlords outside Yuzhou, but Xi Lu gave him a sleeping pillow.

As for the follow-up, let’s see how much Xi Lu can do...

Whether it is stinky tofu or sour wine lees, it will only taste after fermenting for a while.

I was in a hurry to take it out, but it was not beautiful.

After discussing the matter about Lu State, everyone discussed some other matters.

Cao Cao also made arrangements one by one. Just as time passed quietly, the discussion gradually came to an end. When everyone was about to say goodbye, Cao Cao called everyone again and said, "Zihe will be rewarded and Xiaowu, after Li Duwei, he flowed into the desert. Now he is the Poshihe clan. He is here again to Youbei, and wants to see the emperor as a tribute and trade in Youbei. What can you see about this matter?"

In fact, everyone heard about this incident a little two days ago, but Cao Cao did not mention it directly at that time. Everyone did not know what Cao Cao was thinking, so they naturally did not dare to discuss it easily. The bigger the official position, the more cautious the words and deeds were. The lighter the people were, and there would be no problem when they talked about anything, and of course it would be useless.

"Can it be a fraud?" Cheng Yu said on the side.

Cao Cao nodded slightly, then asked: "Gongren, what's the movement in Guanzhong?"

Dong Zhao was mainly responsible for the military monitoring and response to Heluo and Guanzhong. When he saw Cao Cao's eyes turned, he immediately bowed and replied: "Ming Gong, there was no abnormal movement in Guanzhong Tongguan and Hangu. Most of the officials in Guanzhong were busy with farming and sericulture affairs, and there was no sign of food and grass being mobilized or soldiers being dispatched. Therefore, I think that Jiankun's incident has nothing to do with the cavalry, and may be seen at first."

Although Dong Zhao was not as quick as Guo Jia's brain, he knew his responsibilities very well. Since he was almost ambushed and killed by He Yi and others in Jingzhou, Dong Zhao set up a false bureau. Later, after destroying the He Yi Rebellion, he stayed in Xu County and did not return to Jingzhou.

China is now busy with spring plowing, whether in Shandong or Guanzhong.

Cao Cao pondered for a while, nodded and said, "Let him come to see him. If there is any movement, it will probably be announced in the autumn..."

…(σ｀д′)σ…

Are the people rational or stupid?

In fact, people have been constantly discussing and studying this point from ancient times to the present.

Until later generations, there was still no so-called "scientific" argument that proves which side the people are biased towards, because this is indeed a conceptual model that is difficult to quantify, especially the relatively abstract thing like thinking. Just like the book "The Moon", it is not a psychological work in the true sense, but rather a pseudo-minded theory such as "Poor Dad Rich Dad".

But what is interesting is that the more feudal it is, the more class rule is, the more simple and crude behavioral patterns are reflected in the attitude of the upper court towards the lower class people.

The reason for the behavioral pattern of such thinking is very simple, because in the upper court, the attitude towards the lower class people was not "humanized", but "materialized".

"The Shepherd" is just a cattle and sheep.

Who would do that when it comes to cattle and sheep...

Kong Rong is actually the same for the people.

Kong Rong didn't care about the people, because those people could neither understand his theories nor praise his articles, so what should we care about those stupid people like cattle and sheep?

Are you a member of the upper class? Who is not the lower class?

In later generations, Kong Rong was probably the pear that was remembered, but who knew that the "pear" he gave up would eventually have a life?

When Kong Rong was sixteen years old, the government wanted to arrest a famous scholar Zhang Jian. Zhang Jian happened to be friends with Kong Rong's brother Kong Bao. In a hurry, Zhang Jian fled to Kong Rong's house and wanted to get Kong Bao's help, but Kong Bao happened to be away. Kong Rong took his own initiative to hide Zhang Jian at home. Later, the matter was found out by the government, and the three were arrested and imprisoned.

The criminals who were arrested by the government privately, someone must bear the responsibility for this matter. Kong Rong, Kong Bao and Kong Rong's mother all rushed to take responsibility for this and requested to be executed. However, there will be a result for all causes. When Kong Rong was a child, he gave Kong Bao a pear, and this time it was Kong Bao, so the officials finally sentenced Kong Bao to death. Kong Bao died innocently, and later generations basically did not remember him, but Kong Rong, who was alive, once again became famous because of this incident.

From then on, Kong Rong ran away on the road of fame.

In other words, fame has become Kong Rong's obsession.

The Book of the Later Han Dynasty said that Kong Rong was not without great ambitions, and he also had ambitions, saying that he "ambition was in the siege of crisis", but although Kong Rong had many battles in his life, he actually did not achieve a complete victory on the battlefield.

Kong Rong did not understand military affairs. When the war came, he remained calm and calm when the flesh and blood flew. Kong Rong's calmness was not the kind of confident calmness, but a pure lucky mentality. He hoped that when the enemy surrounded him, he would still be a famous demeanor and showed unafraid calmness. If he happened to win the battle, others could praise him twice and double, and then he could gain a higher reputation...

It’s just a pity that even Liu Guanzhang can only save Kong Rong once.

In the end, there was no one to save him. Kong Rong did not "the city is there, the city is dead, and the city is dead." He left his wife and children, his subordinates, and the people in the city, and ran away by himself.

This is the most embarrassing and painful thing in Kong Rong's heart, but he cannot show it.

This is his character.

Some people think that his surname is Kong, so they need to play the role of a morally flawless descendant of a saint.

Some people think that he is the local chief, so they should do a decisive and decisive job in the heroes in troubled times.

Some people think that he is determined to support the Han Dynasty, so he should assist the left emperor Liu Xie and stay by Liu Xie's side to give him advice.
