Chapter 532 Chen Zhang

Liang Xiao did not admire Chen Ping very much, but he did not think that Chen Ping was exiled because Taoism advocated conspiracy. ◇◇↓ Novel.¥f In fact, this is just a very deceptive statement. The real reason is that the increasingly concentrated imperial power cannot tolerate the existence of military merit groups.

Of course, the Confucian scholar who has mastered the right to write history but has to be taboo for his respected master can only say this.

Chen Zhan is nearly forty years old, and his youth was the process of the military merit group going from peak to decline. On the one hand, he would nostalgia for his former power, and on the other hand, he would also feel a sense of powerlessness to turn the world back. If not, he would not have had an affair with a maid in the Marquis of Pingyang Mansion and marry her as his wife.

Chen Zhang's mood is a portrayal of countless children of military merit groups. It seems that there is only the last road left before them, that is, the Chen family's road: marrying the royal family, becoming a relative of the foreign power, and using the imperial power to maintain their own interests. In fact, this is equivalent to raising one's hands to surrender.

The core of Huang-Lao's Way is to govern without doing anything. One of the purposes of implementing Huang-Lao's Way in the early Han Dynasty was to be in peace with the imperial power and military merit groups, and the well water will not violate the rivers. If today, if I do not want to do nothing, but want to do a great job, the military merit group will be tragic. The older generation of founding heroes passed away one after another, and the remaining young people can only do nothing.

However, the lean camel is bigger than the horse. Although these down-and-out nobles are declining, their overall strength cannot be underestimated. The emperor can only suppress them at present and not give them the opportunity to increase their ranks, but cannot be forcibly deprived. After another 100 years, the emperor's imperial power will be stable, so they will not be so comfortable. The most famous time was that the ranks of more than 100 people were deprived of in one breath on the grounds that the ingredient is insufficient.

Chen Zhan did not have a title, but his feelings should not be much different. In history, he has been seeking to restore the country, but has never succeeded, even when the Wei family was at its peak.

Liang Xiao looked at Chen Zhan, thinking about the records in history, and suddenly felt an indescribable strange feeling.

"June, what's wrong with you?" Chen Zhan felt so angry that Liang Xiao looked at him and asked with fear. He felt something was wrong with Liang Xiao's eyes. It was like looking at a dead person. He asked himself that he had given Liang Xiao enough face, which should be enough to save the faults of his servants. Why did Liang Xiao still look at him like this?

"Oh, nothing." Liang Xiao retracted his mind. He raised his glass, blocked his face, and concealed his loss of composure. The two of them drank a glass of wine, and Liang Xiao asked again: "Jun Chen is also a famous Chang'an scholar. Haven't he been to Changmen Garden?"

Chen Zhan smiled bitterly and shook his head. "What kind of famous scholar? I am not successful in literature or martial arts. I am almost vain. I am still a small official of Thousand Stones. I don't know when I will be able to make it through, so I am not qualified to go to the Changmen Garden gathering. Even Master Dong also submitted a letter to recommend himself, and went to Wei Qihou's mansion to teach several times before I received the invitation."

Liang Xiao's heart moved. He talked a lot with Liu Ling yesterday, but most of it was about water control, but he didn't have time to ask Dou Ying.

"It's hard to get into Wei Qihou's door?"

"Relatively better." Chen Zhan tilted his mouth. "Although Wei Qihou is glorious, after all, he is old and if the door is difficult to enter, no one will be willing to go."

Liang Xiao smiled. It turned out that Dou Ying was doing so miserable that even Chen Zhang didn't take him seriously.

After the two talked for a while, Wei Shaoer prepared a banquet. Liang Xiao and Chen Zhandong talked a lot. Finally, in front of Chen Zhan and his wife, they confirmed the news of taking over the master and apprenticeship, and then left the Chen Mansion.

Wei Shaoer was very grateful and sent it out in person. He also told Huo Qubing to attend Liang Xiao's side and side, and then he said goodbye. When he returned home, Chen Zhang looked at the broken door and sighed. Wei Shaoer was uneasy and hurriedly said, "I have invited someone to repair it, and it will be repaired soon."

Chen Zhang waved his hand. "Forget it, those dogs didn't have eyes, and they actually offended this upstart. Fortunately, it was his junior brother who did not cause any human life. He was killed from the sea of ​​corpses and blood. If he had murderous intentions, there were few human lives that could not be stopped. I think he loved Vaccine very much. You can tell me to be smarter and never miss this opportunity."

Seeing that Chen Zhang's tone was gentle and not as fierce as usual, Wei Shaoer felt very happy and agreed repeatedly.

Chen Zhan thought for a while and said, "Why not do this? You pack some luggage for Goujian and let him live in Liang Mansion."

"Why?" Wei Shaoer was puzzled. After she got married with Chen Zhan, she had no children, and only Huo Qubing was the only child. She couldn't bear to let him leave him and live in the Liang family.

"You have to learn archery skills when you get sick, of course it's best to follow Liang Xiao. Besides, when he lives in the Liang family, you and I have reason to visit Liang family often. If you are familiar with it, Liang Xiao will say in front of His Majesty in the future. Maybe I can be an official and the conditions at home are better. Do you think so?"

When Wei Shaoer heard this, she felt it was reasonable and nodded repeatedly. She called Huo Qubing and said Chen Zhan's suggestion. Huo Qubing did not doubt that Huo Qubing had him and wanted it. Wei Shaoer immediately packed some luggage for him, and then took him to the Liang family with Chen Zhan himself.

Liang Xiao did not go home directly, so he went to Wei Qihou's mansion.

Dou Ying was studying at home. When he saw Liang Xiao visiting, he was very surprised. "Why didn't you go to Ganquan Palace to report?"

"Your Majesty has an edict to let me rest at home for two days." Liang Xiao squeezed his eyes and patted his knees again. "It just so happened that my legs were fast and I couldn't walk, so I was so happy to stay in Chang'an for two days."

Dou Ying glanced at Liang Xiao and couldn't help laughing. He welcomed Liang Xiao to the hall and said earnestly: "Bo Ming, it doesn't matter if you have some temper, but you have to stop at it. I've been away for too long, so I'm afraid it's not a good thing."

Liang Xiao said half-jokingly: "Is this Wei Qihou's reading experience?"

Dou Ying laughed and pushed the book on the table aside. "There is no such thing in the book. This is my experience. I was so excited that I lived in seclusion in Lantian, but the result..." He sighed and did not continue.

Liang Xiao knew it well and did not mention this matter again. "I heard that Mr. Dong came to you recently but was more diligent?"

"Well, Your Majesty went to Ganquan Palace. There were few errands in the palace. He often came to me for a walk. He read a lot of books and some academic matters, so I would like to ask him."

"Is it his suggestion that the river is broken, and it is better to be diffused rather than blocked?"

Dou Ying raised her head and looked at Liang Xiao in surprise. "What's wrong with you? Your leg disease recurs. You don't have good care at home, but you come to trouble Mr. Dong."

Liang Xiao frowned and changed the subject. "Wei Qihou, did you discuss knowledge with Master Dong. Have you ever thought about why the emperor praised the response of heaven and man while building a large-scale construction in Ganquan Palace, but he also abandoned Master Dong in Chang'an?"

Dou Ying remained silent. From the moment he saw Liang Xiao, he guessed Liang Xiao’s purpose. Why didn’t the emperor let Liang Xiao go to Ganquan Palace to report immediately? I’m afraid he didn’t want him to speak. Liang Xiao came to him, which also means that he couldn’t shut up just now.

"What are you going to do?"

"I hope Master Dong will look at the park for another three years and come up with a way to crack the response of heaven and man. Otherwise, I will definitely not finish it with him."

Dou Ying tilted her mouth and was a little joking. "Why are you not going to be with him?"

Liang Xiao slanted his eyes, a little unsuspecting and a little murderous intent, which made Dou Ying feel nervous and inexplicably uneasy. "Don't he like to talk about disasters and ask for rain? I just said that the flood that caused the river to burst was caused by him asking for rain."

Dou Ying was shocked. "You are making trouble, who will believe you?"

"I'm a nonsense, but the flood in Shandong will be difficult to calm down for a long time. Once the civil rebellion is aroused, the court will need a scapegoat."

Dou Ying took a breath and stared at Liang Xiao without saying anything for a long time. He could say that Liang Xiao was joking, but if Liang Xiao was not joking, then Dong Zhongshu would be in trouble. In an instant, he thought of a word: take the blame for yourself.

"Bo Ming, you can't do this." Dou Ying came back to his senses and said repeatedly: "Although Dong Zhongshu is a little pedantic, he is a seed of study, and his disciples are all over the world. If you falsely accuse him, it will make the public angry."

"His bullshit theory that should be scattered rather than blocked has already made the public angry." Liang Xiao snorted: "Marquis Wei Qi has lived in Chang'an for a long time and cannot hear the wailing of the people of Shandong. I returned from Jiangnan. But I saw their tragic situation. Doctor Han and Marquis Cao are also vivid in their minds and will report it to the emperor soon. I remind him now that he is giving him a chance to correct it. He should thank me."

Dou Ying frowned when he heard this. He stood up, turned back and forth twice, and then stood in front of Liang Xiao. "For this matter, I'll tell Dong Zhongshu, don't be impulsive. He has been studying hard for decades before he has developed such a knowledge of the induction of heaven and man. It is really not easy to slap himself in a short period of time. Give him some time."

"I can give him time, but I'm afraid that others won't give him time." Liang Xiao smiled. "Since Wei Qihou has pleaded with him, I'll let him go for a few days. However, if I don't cause trouble for him, it doesn't mean that others won't cause trouble for him. You can let him take care of himself."

"I know, I know."

Liang Xiao and Dou Ying had a long chat, and then went home after having supper at the Dou family.

As soon as he entered the door, Huo Qubing came up and said warmly: "Senior Brother, you are back."

Liang Xiao was very surprised. "Why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

Huo Qubing scratched his head embarrassedly and was about to answer, when Liu Ling walked out of the inner courtyard. "You have limited time at home. In order to enable him to practice craftsmanship as soon as possible, he will live at home from today."

Although Liang Xiao was puzzled, he did not ask any more. He came to Huo Qubing's room and checked around. Seeing that Liu Ling had arranged it properly, not only was the room clean, but all kinds of utensils were new, but he also arranged a teenager in his teenager to accompany Huo Qubing, so he felt relieved.

Liang Xiao sat down beside the bed and called Huo Qubing to him. "Tell me, whose idea is this?"

Huo Qubing blinked. "It shouldn't be my mother. However, I also hope to be closer to my senior brother."

"As soon as you get rid of your illness, you will be at ease. When you get here, you need to learn not only archery skills, but also other things. You are very talented, and even if you don't learn, you are better than ordinary people. However, if you want to become a true celebrity, you still have to learn more. Only by laying a solid foundation can you fly higher and go further in the future. Do you understand?"

Huo Qubing seemed to understand but didn't quite understand Liang Xiao's words.

"Okay, you can rest first. You can practice by yourself at night, don't be too late. I will call you tomorrow morning."

"Thank you, senior brother." Huo Qubing bowed and sent Liang Xiao out of the door. It was not until Liang Xiao entered the inner courtyard that he withdrew his gaze, closed the door, looked at the various utensils in the room, and let out a light breath. He took out the bamboo bow used by Liang Xiao and practiced the bow-opening style in the room.

Liang Xiao returned to the backyard, sat in my mother's room for a while, and then went back to his room. Liu Ling had already washed up and was coaxing the child. Liang Yu also sat aside and talked. Seeing Liang Xiao coming in, Liang Yu stood up.

"Brother."

"Sit for a while." Liang Xiao waved his hand and signaled Liang Yu not to rush to leave. Liang Yu glanced at Liu Ling with some embarrassment. Liu Ling smiled and said, "Let you sit, and see what I do, it seems like I want to drive you away."

Liang Yu also smiled. "Brother, I just came back, I don't want to disturb you."

"Look at what you said, am I so eager?" Liu Ling blushed and reached out to twist Liang Yu's cheeks. Liang Yu lowered his head embarrassedly, covered his mouth and laughed twice. Liang Xiao was speechless and changed the topic: "Wen Ji, I originally wanted to find you tomorrow. Since you are here, I'll tell you by the way."

"What's up?"

"Mei Gao was sent to the Western Qiang mission and brought back a lot of pictures and books. I told him to lend me a copy. In addition, Yan An also collected a lot of information in Nanyue, and I also wanted to copy one. This is a big task. I think about it, I am afraid that only you can do it. You may have to work hard during this period."

Liang Yu's eyes lit up and he smiled and said, "There is such a good thing, even if my brother doesn't let me do it, I'm asking for it. I can know the world without leaving home. What a wonderful thing."

"There is one more thing." Liang Xiao sat down, was silent for a while, and turned to Liu Ling and said, "I want Wen Ji to teach Huo Qubing to study. What do you think?"

Liu Ling had expected it, and was not surprised at all. "With Wen Ji's knowledge, it must be enough to teach him to read and read. I'm afraid that Huo Qubing would be too noisy and would disturb Wen Ji Qingjing."

Liang Yu said: "No, I like Huo Qubing very much. When I see him, I remembered when I was a child."

"How about this, let them go to Maoling and bring Ping'an. She and Xiao Fugui of the Tu family are already six years old and it's time to enlighten them. Wen Ji is a teacher, teach them to read first, and wait until they find a suitable teacher, and have a foundation, so it's easier to get started."

Liang Xiao frowned. "Isn't it too early?"

"It's getting late." Liu Ling said: "I started to read when I was three years old. Ping An was a little smart like when I was a child, but he was a little wild, and he was always carried by his mother. He was a little spoiled. If he didn't adjust it in time, no one could control her in the future."

"My body is a woman?" Liang Xiao was confused. In his impression, Xiao Ping'an has always been an obedient and pleasing little girl. Can he get along with Ye? "I didn't see it."

"This is her most brilliant place." Liu Ling held back his smile. "Don't you think she was too well-behaved in front of you? With a father like you and a mother like Yueliang, should she be such a well-behaved child? If you don't believe me, you might as well ask Wen Ji and see what your daughter has done."—
