Chapter 3289: If you love to do it, don’t get out of it

Indeed, Cao Pi had reason to be angry about the current situation in Jizhou.

But anger cannot solve the problem, and often only creates more problems.

Many things are often impossible to have the best of both worlds, and at some point they can only make choices.

The result of wanting everything is often that you can't get anything.

Cao Pi has now tasted the consequences of wanting everything.

If he hadn't wanted everything before, then the money and food in Jizhou might not have been so concentrated in the transit camp, the soldiers in counties would not have been so weak, and the resentment of local gentry would not have been so great.

If he didn't want everything, he would first reconcile the relationship between Cui Yan and Chen Qun as much as possible and leave the two in Yecheng to command, on the one hand, he could show the attitude of cooperation in Jizhou and Yuzhou to the outside world. On the other hand, Wei Yan might not be able to gain too much advantage with the joint efforts of Cui Yan and Chen Qun.

Wei Yan was bold and keen in terms of battlefield intuition.

He almost instinctively seized the discord between Jizhou and Yuzhou, and realized the hidden resentment of the gentry in Jizhou towards Cao's army. He immediately began to lure the gentry in Jizhou to become Wei Yan's "friendly army", actively or passively cooperating, covering up Wei Yan's traces.

Chen Qun guessed some of the problems, but he could not explain them explicitly. He could only express it implicitly, reminding Cao Pi that there was a drought in Jizhou and that he should do something, at least express an attitude, and win over these gentry in Jizhou...

Just like when many companies encounter festivals in later generations, they always send out some insignificant welfare products.

Although there are not many, and it is very likely that the intermediary will be beaten by some help, it is at least proved that the company has this mind and employees will be slightly more at ease.

Cao Pi seemed to come up and slam the table, pulling his neck and shouting, "There are not many other people in China, but there are many people, and I like to do it, so I don't want to get out!"

Isn’t this the same as a dairy factory ridiculing the consumer, “No one is short of you”?

So, now there is one missing in Jizhou in the east and one missing in the west, and there are holes everywhere all at once.

Cao Pi angrily expressed his desire to loosen Chen Qun's chain and let him go out to bite... Well, suppress the bandits, but in fact, even if Chen Qun killed all the officials in Jizhou who did not obey orders, would he solve the problem?

Obviously impossible.

It is a very troublesome thing to really solve the problem, so many people are willing to directly solve the people who raise the problem. So Cao Pi is now adding mistakes to the mistakes.

Cao Cao and Fei Qian are like two super-large companies in the Han Dynasty, with thousands of employees or even tens of thousands of people directly involved in millions of families, and indirectly radiating to tens of millions of people.

Then something goes wrong, kill?

Which company has problems? Is it a killer to solve the problem?

Layoffs?

Layouts can only be considered dismissal at most, while murders can be directly physically erased.

What an idiot can come up with a solution?

Now it's like layoffs and layoffs are in blood.

There were many delicious and fun things on a table, but a bug was mixed in.

The correct way is to cry and shout, then pull the tablecloth tightly, which eventually leads to everything on the table falling to the ground and shattering.

Chen Qun delivered those memorials to make Cao Pi understand where the root of the Jizhou problem lies and what is the most critical tool...

The result was obvious. Cao Pi was like the crying and furious child. He didn't listen to what Chen Qun wanted to say, nor did he ask what Chen Qun was going to do. Instead, he grabbed the tablecloth and pulled it down desperately.

In order to prevent the things on the table from falling to pieces, Chen Qun had to agree to lead his troops to encircle and suppress the "Cavals and Bandits".

To send troops, you also need to be prepared.

Before leaving, Chen Qun summoned his child to the front.

Chen Tai is not old, but he is not young either.

Originally, Chen Qun brought Chen Tai to Yecheng, on the one hand, to better take care of and teach Chen Tai, and on the other hand, he also hoped that Chen Tai would have more opportunities to contact Cao Pi...

How to get closer to the relatives of the leader is obviously a science.

Unfortunately, Chen Qun suddenly felt that Chen Tai and Cao Pi were not suitable to get too close.

『Sir, Father…』

Chen Tai stepped forward to greet him.

Chen Qun pointed to the seat beside him and said, "Sit."

Since we cannot get too close to Cao Pi, we must choose another direction and open up another channel.

So what directions and channels are there in Yecheng, or within the Jizhou area, that are worth Chen Qun’s investment?

In the hall, the father and son sat silently.

In the courtyard, the summer sunlight appeared a little brilliant and hot, as if it was about to melt everything.

『Jizhou has a very bad drought...』

Chen Qun sighed softly.

The originally green leaves in the courtyard have now lowered their heads.

Chen Tai did not answer the conversation.

There is no wind, so the air around it is a bit dull.

Although the summer in Jizhou is not as humid and stuffy as in Jiangdong, this windless weather will make people feel that they are blocked by something in their hearts and feel uncomfortable even if they are breathing.

Cao Pi grew up gradually and had some temperaments when he was young, and could be said to be "ignorant" or "childish", but Cao Pi was not an ordinary child.

Moreover, the definition of children in the Han Dynasty was not as outrageous as that of later generations...

Later generations were in their thirties and forties, but in the Han Dynasty, they were still children, and they were not a minority who came out to be the head of the family at the age of twelve or thirteen.

Therefore, Cao Pi lost his composure as a heir and even lost his composure as a successor, which made Chen Qun look down on him even more.

After a long period of silence, Chen Qun looked at Chen Tai.

Chen Tai quickly straightened his waist slightly and was respectful.

"What is a family?"

Chen Qun asked.

Chen Tai thought for a moment, "The aristocratic family is a family that has been passed down from generation to generation. Its family background is prominent and has been of great talent for generations. The family tradition is simple and hereditary title, and the descendants are reproduced and passed down from generation to generation."

Chen Qun asked again without commenting, "What are the gentry?"

Chen Tai was stunned for a moment, "This...ah, the gentry is a family whose career is to study. Although their family is not as prominent as a family, they have also been a scholarly family for generations, and their descendants all value their knowledge. The family style is elegant and passed down from generation to generation."

"So, what are the people?" Chen Qun continued to ask.

"The people are the foundation of the country." Chen Tai replied.

Chen Qun nodded and sighed, "That's how it is."

Chen Qun is knowledgeable, but he is also limited by his own limitations.

What is the root?

In fact, it is the sewer of the city, the root of the forest, and the people who are often overlooked in daily life...

But like Chen Tai, Chen Qun kept the people on his lips, but in fact he couldn't see those people.

Just like when Chen Tai talks about "arist families" and "arists", he can talk freely, but when he talks about "people", he only has a short sentence left.

They usually look upwards.

What do you see when you look upward?

High-rise buildings are lush with branches and leaves.

As for the roots and soil below?

And the sewer that is silted and blocked...

How smelly and dirty that is, will that "fool" go to see it?

Chen Qun doesn't think he is a "fool" and will not let his children be "fool".

"If you have a general trend today, what do you think?" Chen Qun asked again.

"The world's trend?" Chen Tai was silent for a moment. This question was a bit big and I didn't know how to answer it for a while.

Chen Qun looked at Chen Tai and said, "The world is so great, the world is chaotic, but it is nothing more than aristocratic families, gentry, and people..."

Chen Tai suddenly realized, "My father said that now that the aristocratic family is collapsed, the aristocratic family will rise up, and will the people be governed?"

"Of course." Chen Qun nodded, but soon sighed again, "It's just... the prince...

Chen Qun looked around and lowered his voice, "I don't understand this."

Before the fall of Yuan's family, the Han Dynasty was a dynasty of aristocratic families. It can even be said that it was only aristocratic families that could be the leader in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Even in the Records of the Grand Historian, "Aristocratic families" were listed as the top priority.

What? Chen Sheng and Wu Guang?

Yes, Chen Sheng is not from a noble family, but he was finally listed as a "aristories".

Chen Sheng first attacked under the strict rule of the Qin Dynasty and had extraordinary achievements. Later, Chen Sheng established himself as the King of Chu, which was somewhat considered a "king", and the generals he appointed also played a key role in overthrowing the Qin Dynasty. Therefore, Sima Qian praised Chen Sheng, compared him to Shang Tang and Zhou Wu, affirmed his achievements in overthrowing the previous dynasty, and carried Chen Sheng to the "family family".

??????55.???????????

The normal "family family" is the kind that Chen Tai answered, "generational soldiers".
