Han Dao world

Yuan Shu stood opposite him, waving a horsewhip in his hand, patted his thigh lightly, and couldn't hide a smug smile on his face.

"Liu Jingsheng, the Yinfang has been built, and the speed is very fast. Although Mrs. Hongnong Wang is a woman, her hands and feet are very nimble. You have to hurry up here. The painting will be completed one day earlier, and someone will be refurbished one day earlier. .Anyway, Luoyang City was also the capital of the great Han Dynasty, so it’s impossible to keep it so deserted, don’t you think?”

Liu Biao cast a sideways glance at Yuan Shu, snorted disdainfully, and ignored him.

He knew that Yuan Shu had stimulated him intentionally or unintentionally, saying that his movements were too slow and that he was not as good as a woman, and wanted him to speed up a bit so that he could complete the drawing of other illegal mansions and make them public.

But he didn't want to.

If we really want to complete the drawing of those mansions, the dignity of scholar-bureaucrats will really disappear.

Those who are on the list will be cast aside by future generations.

He originally thought that Xun Yu would come forward to object, but he never expected that Xun Yu would maintain a spectating attitude.From Mrs. Tang's speed, she might even have Xun Yu's support.

Is Xun Yu crazy?Or, like Yuan Shu, he chose to surrender to the emperor for the sake of wealth?

In fact, with the current strength of the Xun family, even if he refused to surrender, the emperor would not kill them all, at most he would express his dissatisfaction.

It's like moving him from Hedong to Henan.

He could obviously avoid this disaster, why did he choose to help the evildoers?

Thinking of these, Liu Biao's mood was very bad.

"Oh, by the way, have you read Situ's "Confucian School of Changes"?" Yuan Shu suddenly became interested.

Liu Biao remained silent.

Yang Biao's article aroused such a big reaction, how could he not know.

But he didn't want to discuss this article with Yuan Shu.

He abhors the attitude shown in this article.

Among other things, Yang Biao regarded the actions of the emperor as effective measures to adapt to the current situation, and made it clear that he was flattery.

As a Sangong, to write such an article, Hongnong Yang's strength of character has completely collapsed.

Yang Biao, who used to be a gentleman, has been reduced to a dude like Yuan Shu, only power and wealth are left in his eyes.

Sure enough, it's not a family, so don't enter a family.

"I'm sick and in poor health. I'm afraid I've accomplished this great cause." Liu Biao said coldly, "I've already written to the emperor, requesting to be resigned from office and return to my hometown to recuperate. I don't care who the emperor sends to cooperate with you. "

Yuan Shu was not surprised at all, and grinned.

"When are you leaving?"

"What's wrong?" Liu Biao heyed. "You are busy with your work, don't send me off."

"To send, to send."

Chapter 1022

At the beginning of April, Liu Xie received several letters one after another.

One is that Yin Xunyu of Henan wrote three things: Xinli, Futu Dao, and restoration of Luoyang Taixue.

The new plow was developed by Shi Taodai of the Chang'an Taixue Agricultural School. After field tests, the effect is excellent.Hundreds of them have been built for the common people to use, and it should be possible to cultivate more land under the existing manpower conditions.If all goes well, Henan will be self-sufficient this year and will no longer need money and food allocated by the court.

As for the Way of the Buddha, Xun Yu expressed some of his own views.

He felt that the Way of the Buddha had merits and could not be simply banned.It is necessary for the emperor to call the people of the Western Regions who have studied the Way of the Buddha to understand the situation and make a choice.

Finally, Luoyang Taixue was restored.

Although Luoyang has suffered catastrophe, the foundations of the Taixue and other buildings are still there, and the conditions are much better than the Taixue in Chang'an.If a certain amount of manpower and material resources can be invested in repairs, it will soon be effective, no less than Chang'an.

Followed by Liu Biao's letter.

Liu Biao's letter was very simple, that is, he was not in good health and asked to be an official to recuperate from his illness.

Although Liu Biao didn't say the real reason, Liu Xie could see through Liu Biao's thoughts at a glance.He just cherishes the feathers and is unwilling to tear off the fig leaf of the scholar-officials with his own hands.

For this reason, he would rather be an official.

Liu Xie has no objection, if Liu Biao wants to become an official, let him do so.It is better to forget each other than to forget each other.

But Yuan Shu didn't intend to let him go just like that.

In Yuan Shu's letter, in addition to submitting the proof of "Luoyang Tujuan", he also asked Liu Qi, Liu Biao's eldest son, to remain in office.He said that Liu Qi had been in charge of drawing the "Luoyang Picture Scroll" with Liu Biao for a long time, and he was familiar with the situation, and how to stay in the post would help to complete this task as soon as possible.

Liu Xie saw through Yuan Shu's careful thinking at a glance.

Liu Qi was left behind just to disgust Liu Biao.

He didn't spend too much thought on this, and left the decision to Yuan Shu.If Yuan Shu can persuade Liu Qi, he will arrange Liu Qi as Yuan Shu's deputy to take over Liu Biao's job.If Yuan Shu can't do this, then find someone else.

As Jizhou's various affairs are gradually on the right track, it will not be too far for him to move to Luoyang.If you really can't find anyone, let Cai Yan take charge of the matter.

There is only one thing that makes Liu Xie more worried.

Futu Road.

It has to be said that Xun Yu is very smart and has seen the academic value of Futu Dao.In terms of ideological level, among the major world religions, Buddhism has the highest achievement and the most complete system.The fundamental reason why Buddhism can be appreciated by so many scholars is the depth and breadth of thought.

If he wanted to discuss the Way of the Buddha with those scholars, he was worried that his cultivation was not enough to convince his opponent theoretically.

If you still have to rely on force in the end, why bother talking about Taoism, just use a knife.

So far, he has not found a sure way on how to integrate Buddhism and give full play to its strengths without producing negative effects.

He only agreed to Xun Yu's suggestion, and called Xun Yu's elder brother Xun Yue to be the minister to discuss the Taiping classics.

-

Luoyang.

Liu Qi walked into Tongtuo Street and stopped in front of the restaurant with a hesitant expression.

"Liu Boyu, why are you still hesitating?" Yuan Shu's laughter came from above his head. "Hurry up, the good wine and food are all ready, just waiting for you."

Liu Qi frowned, quickened his pace a little guilty, and entered the door.

Today he sneaked out behind Liu Biao's back.If Liu Biao knew that he was in contact with Yuan Shu in private, Liu Biao who pretended to be sick might really get sick from anger.

Going upstairs, looking at the table full of wine and food, Liu Qi complained: "What is Yuan Jun's intention? Such extravagance."

Yuan Shu chuckled, stretched out his arms to wrap around Liu Qi's shoulders, dragged him halfway, and pulled him into the banquet.

"Today, if you say it well, it's a reception banquet. If you don't say it well, it's a farewell banquet. Of course, it's best not to make it a Hongmen banquet."

"Yuan Jun speak carefully." Liu Qi was startled, and said hastily. "If the introduction is injustice, if it is passed on to Yu Shi, I am afraid that I will be impeached. I am white, so that's all. Yuan Jun is the head of the Yuan family in Runan, and the future of countless people is on his shoulders."

Yuan Shu laughed loudly and pointed to Liu Qi's nose. "You son, like your famous father, speaks in a strange way. Whose future can I influence? My son has no ambitions, and he is satisfied with a Langguan. One of my daughters is the owner of Yinfangfang, and the other is beside the emperor. My daughter-in-law has her own future. As for my son-in-law..."

Yuan Shu raised his eyebrows, not hiding his pride. "Do I still need to worry?"

Liu Qi smacked his lips.

Although he knew that Yuan Shu was showing off, he had no reason to refute.

Yuan Shu's children really don't need him to worry about.

"Yuan Jun has a banquet today, what orders do you have?"

"I don't dare to obey orders. I just want to ask about your plan." Yuan Shu took his seat, carrying the jug himself, and filled Liu Qi with wine. "Your father is going to retire to recuperate from illness, are you going to go back with him, or..."

Liu Qi said seriously: "My father is in poor health, I, as a son, naturally have to wait on my knees."

"Boyu's filial piety is commendable. But you and I both know that although your father is approaching sixty years old, his health is very good. This is just an excuse to take up an official position and recuperate from illness. Are you really willing to use this excuse to spend time in the wild and ignore the government?"

Yuan Shu took a sip of wine. "With all due respect, your father became an official and deliberately quarreled with the imperial court. Not only will the official position be lost, but the title is also very dangerous and may be taken away at any time. Now that Yanzhou is also saving the land, there is not much property that your eldest son can inherit. You I am really willing to say that after ten or twenty years, your younger brother Zhongyu will be named Marquis and General, and you will be white?"

Liu Qi frowned and said nothing.

He understood what Yuan Shu said, and he was unwilling.

But as a son of man, if he openly contradicts Liu Biao at this time, he will definitely be scolded for being unfilial, how can he stand in the world in the future?

Yuan Shu was not in a hurry, he sipped the wine slowly, waiting for Liu Qi to speak.

After a long time, Liu Qi sighed. "Father's life is hard to break."

Yuan Shu put down his wine glass and smiled slightly. "Your Father wants you to go back?"

"That's not true, it's just that this is my job, so why bother..."

"Your father is not really sick, so why should you wait on his knees? Besides, Ling Tang is still alive, and you still have younger siblings, and you are not missing. As for your father's body, there are at least ten years before he dies."

Liu Qi smiled wryly.

"I think, not only will your father not want you to go back, but he will let you stay."

Liu Qi was taken aback. "why?"

"Your father and son are gone, so you are not afraid of me messing around?"

"This……"

Liu Qi looked at Yuan Shu who raised his eyebrows and smiled wickedly, and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

It has to be said that this may exist.

The pictures of Yuan's former residence have been published publicly, and the reputation of Yuan's family in Runan is also bad.Yuan Shu had no scruples. At this moment, he only had one thought, to drag more people into the water.

Everyone is mutual, and the Yuan family cannot be allowed to enjoy the notoriety alone.

"If Yuan Jun intends to do this, even if I stay, what can I do?"

"I don't dare to say that it will be useful, but what if it is useful?" Yuan Shu said with a chuckle: "Mencius said that it is impossible to rely on Mount Tai to surpass Beihai. I, Yuan Shu, are not Taishan or Beihai. If you don't try Give up, it’s not that you can’t, it’s that you don’t do it.”

Chapter 1023 Harmonious But Different

Liu Qi was dumbfounded.

He knew that Yuan Shu was a rascal, but he didn't expect Yuan Shu to be such a rascal. He said that he would act recklessly, and then put the responsibility on him.

What kind of nonsense is this?

However, Yuan Shu spoke with confidence.

Aside from being dumbfounded, Liu Qi realized that Yuan Shu was not joking, at least not entirely.More precisely, he was threatening.

If he doesn't cooperate, Yuan Shu will specifically target their father and son.

For him, staying in Luoyang is not only should, but also necessary.

Otherwise, Yuan Shu would go crazy, and they—especially Liu Biao—could be ruined and their efforts to become officials would be in vain.

Liu Qi didn't want to leave at first, but with this reason, he felt obliged.

He chatted with Yuan Shu.

At the beginning, he still had the belief of bearing the burden of humiliation and taking the overall situation into consideration, and felt a little aggrieved. Later, the more he chatted with Yuan Shu, the more speculative he became, and he actually felt that what Yuan Shu said was quite reasonable.

Yuan Shu said that old celebrities and old party members like your father have become accustomed to it, and their physical strength is gradually declining, so it is difficult to achieve anything.In peacetime in the past, they might still be able to rank as ministers by virtue of their fame and qualifications. Now, the emperor is determined to innovate. What's the use of these old-fashioned veterans?

Of course, it is a newcomer with less habit and good physical strength.

Such as Zhuge Liang, such as Fazheng and Pang Tong.

Of course, there are some veterans who can use it, but that depends on whether they can introspect themselves.If you can renew every day like Situ and keep up with the pace of the emperor, you still have a chance.

Having said that, Yuan Shu sighed. "Before when people in the world talked about the fourth generation and three princes, the Yuan family of Runan was the first, and the Hongnong Yang family was behind. In the future, when it comes to the fifth generation and three princes, only the Hongnong Yang family will be mentioned, and there will be no such thing as the Yuan family of Runan."

After hearing this, Liu Qi couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The well-known Runan Yuan family ran counter to the imperial court, and once they all declined, what qualifications did their family have to fight against the imperial court.

imperial clan?

As a clan, against the imperial court, the emperor is kind if he does not commit a crime, but he still finds ways to show mercy?

Father is old.

He thought that 20 years ago, party members could call the wind and rain and influence the government.He also thought that the emperor was a stupid and incompetent young emperor who could be manipulated by them.

If you insist on going your own way, you will only fall into the same situation as Yuan Shao in the end, burdened with infamy, and shameless to see your ancestors.

And like Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi brothers, he will either be left idle or exiled.

As a son of man, how can you sit idly by?
