Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 2616 Smashing the pot, repairing Dafa

  Taiyuan, Jinyang.

   City Shou Fu Ya.

  『Wen’s son left the city? ”Cui Jun held a writing brush, and while splashing ink on the paper, the pen was like a snake, and asked in a leisurely manner, “When did you go out? 』

  『Report to the envoy, I left the city at noon today. 』

  Cui Jun stopped writing, nodded, "Got it. 』

  Cui Jun is relatively old, if it is placed in later generations, he is basically at the key point of promotion. If you are promoted, it is possible to work at the top of the court for a few more years, or even more than ten years, until you are no longer an official. But if you have not been promoted in the past few years, then other The official position may have ended in the position of Taiyuan prefect.

  Although the prefect of a county is considered a very high position for most people, but...

  As someone said, people always have to pursue some ideals, otherwise what is the difference from salted fish?

  Is Cui Jun smart?

   Pretty smart.

  But this smart person inevitably has a habit, that is, he likes to comment.

  Of course, Cui Jun likes the habit of commenting, which is also related to the customs of the Han Dynasty.

  After all, from the disaster of the party to the comments on the first day of the month, they are all inseparable from the comments. Among these incidents, these people who like to comment have generally read a lot of books and know a lot of things, but there is still a long way to go from a great Confucianism.

Whether it is the person who caused the turmoil in Taixue, or the person who turned the table and pulled the beard on Yuedan’s review, basically it is a little more than half a bucket of water, so what they like to do most is to comment on half a bucket of water. It means that XX is good, but what, or that XX has a good idea, but what, in order to seek the pleasure of being superior to half a bucket of water.

  Cui Jun has such a problem to some extent.

  For example, Cui Jun felt that there was no need for the Confucian classics debate in Qinglong Temple.

  Because Cui Jun feels that there is only one school of Chinese learning, which is "Tao".

why? Because Cui Jun felt that before the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period, it was said that there were a hundred schools of thought, but they all came from Taoism. It was born and derived, so the origin of Huaxia comes from Taoism, what else needs to be discussed?

  Those who have debated for a long time in Qinglong Temple, who say what is serious and correct, are all people who learn without thinking, and if they think without learning, they will perish.

  For example, Cui Jun also felt that some of Huqi's strategies were not very good and did not conform to the actual situation of the big man. According to the words of later generations, it violated productivity and production relations.

  But Cui Jun forgot one thing when he was criticizing others for their lack of understanding.

  He himself doesn't really understand, or really understand.

  For example, this "Tao".

  Dao, it belongs to Lao Tzu, there is nothing wrong with that.

  Many people in a hundred schools of thought learned from Lao Tzu, or learned from Lao Tzu indirectly, and there is nothing wrong with that.

   But where did Lao Tzu's ideas come from?

  Cui Jun either didn't know, or just pretended to be stupid and didn't mention it.

If it is said that others have learned Lao Tzu's thoughts and developed new ideas and ideas, it is Lao Tzu's meritorious service and should be included in Taoism, then where did Lao Tzu learn knowledge and what books he read, from which he developed Taoist thoughts Come on, is it necessary to classify Taoism into the books that Lao Tzu studied, or the system of the original creators of those knowledge?

  Of course, at this time, double standards can work.

  Does Cui Jun have double standards? After all, isn't it just a reincarnation, double-standard reincarnation?

   Cui Jun was very disdainful of his father's money to buy an official. He openly commented and ridiculed his father's "copper stink", but on the other hand, Cui Jun did not say that he would break away from low-level tastes. He is still an official, and he still takes money, and he doesn't want to be a person without any "bronze stink".

At the same time, Cui Jun avoided his father's beating and scolding, saying that it was "Shun's service to his father, the small stick accepts it, and the big stick leaves, which is not filial." People, listen but don't hear, and didn't settle accounts with those people after his father was insulted. Could it be that this can also find some "unfilial" talk?

From these aspects, Cui Jun is actually more like some people in later generations, unlike those rigid and stubborn people in the Han Dynasty. He is smart, tactful, and likes to criticize and instigate others. When he should stand up He may not stand up, and he may run away first when he senses the danger is approaching.

  It’s like in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Mr. Luo also said that Cui Jun didn’t like Liu Bei, because Liu Bei was really difficult at that time.

   Therefore, it is not difficult to understand Cui Jun's subtle attitude when all kinds of things are happening in Taiyuan County.

  Of course, this is not to say that Cui Jun is not capable, but that his personality is so used to it.

As a prefect of the county, Cui Jun is generally qualified. Whether it is dealing with people's livelihood and political affairs, or organizing agriculture, industry and water conservancy, there is no big problem. It's just that he is a typical man, a son of a noble family who inherits Confucian classics, He is impeccable in dealing with people and dealing with government affairs, but his three views are naturally somewhat different from Fei Qian's, and they are also different from Pang Tong and others.

   Cui Jun felt that even though Wen's son had left Jinyang, he was still under his own control, so he didn't care too much. He felt that everything was in his plan.

  For Cui Jun, he thinks that if local officials want to govern the place well, they must either be able to suppress the local local snakes, forcing them to bow their heads, or they have the same interests as these local snakes.

  And his plan is to do both...

  There are two risks in this matter.

   First, get implicated.

Since Cui Jun knew there were signs of smuggling, he began to investigate, and put the main suspects on Wang and Wen. At the same time, he strictly controlled the control of those smuggled items around Jinyang, forcing These smugglers had to purchase outside Jinyang.

   The smuggled artifacts did not come from the vicinity of Jinyang, and Cui Jun and the Wang family and Wen family have no private contacts. Even if there is a problem with the smuggling in the future, Cui Jun will not have any financial responsibility. Just like smugglers appeared in a certain place in later generations, the local governor cannot be shot directly, unless it is proved that these smugglers have some business dealings with Cui Jun. As for this point, Cui Jun ruled out the danger from the very beginning.

  As for why Cui Jun didn’t report specific issues, it’s because no one likes a colleague who makes a small report, right? Cui Jun knew that most of these guys' utensils were collected from Xihe and Shangdang, but if Cui Jun reported that there was a problem with Xihe Shangdang, then Du Yuan of Xihe and Jia Qu of Shangdang would think Cui Jun was a good friend. People, will they say that Cui Jun's reported behavior is correct and worthy of praise, and then the relationship with Cui Jun will become deeper and deeper?

   Maybe, but most likely not.

  Cui Jun felt that there was no need to do such a thing with little reward and the risk of offending his colleagues.

  Second, the risk of malfeasance.

   This risk is indeed a little bit.

  Cui Jun does not deny it, but he thinks it is still within the acceptable range.

  The reason is simple, Cui Jun wants a stage. He wants a bigger and better stage, and if he wants to be on this stage, does he have to show some ability? And these ordinary things, such as farming and mulberry, such as water conservancy, are not the case in that county, so how can they widen the gap with other county prefects and show their own uniqueness?

   It's like tinkering.

  When the pot leaks, people in later generations generally throw away the pot directly, but in the era of lack of supplies, many people still choose to make up for it and continue to use it.

   At this time, the tinker's skills are revealed.

If you want to mend a pot, of course you need to scrape the ashes first and check for leaks. The tinkerer must be skillful in his hands to enlarge the gaps and leaks secretly, and then point it out to the owner to show that the pot can’t be repaired. Fortunately, you found it today. I, others must not be able to do it well!

  Soon it took a lot of effort to repair the pot, not only can I charge more money, but also get praise from the host...

   Well, if it’s not easy to understand, it’s roughly similar to a mobile phone repairer.

   Secretly hit a little bigger, and it’s fun to make up!

  This can show how superb the tinker's craftsmanship is!

  『Come on! Cui Jun thought about it left and right, and felt that the gap in the current pot could still be bigger, so he called his confidant, "I heard that Wang's Nvying has received an order to come to Taiyuan to thoroughly investigate the smuggling. Thing...you go and spread this news secretly...』

  …(`)…

   On the other side, there is also a pot leaking.

   Tinker No. 1, the eldest prince of the Southern Huns, wanted to keep the pot as intact as possible.

   But Tinker No. 2 felt that if he was not allowed to mend the pot, he would smash the pot.

Ever since, the eldest prince was backstabbed by the third prince, not because the eldest prince had no supporters, but because the eldest prince also had to consider peripheral control and suppression, so his supporters had to let go. Go a little to the outside, in case his father Yu Fuluo kicked his legs that day, and someone led a team to attack the royal court.

  Perhaps the only thing the eldest prince didn't do was not to attack the third prince in the first place.

   It’s just that I regret it now, it’s meaningless.

  The Southern Huns’ pot, although it was rotten, still had many people eating in it, and it was about to be smashed to pieces. Eldest Prince Liu Bao didn’t know what other people thought, but he felt it was a pity.

  So, the eldest prince felt that he might not be able to beat the third prince that night, so he chose not to fight to the death, but chose to avoid it temporarily.

  It’s like the eldest prince feels that the Southern Huns can’t beat the Han people, so he can also choose to temporarily avoid it.

  The eldest prince feels that war is not the whole of life. If you take yourself and the people in the tribe to accomplish something that has little hope at all, is it right or wrong?

   Yes, right where?

  Wrong, where is the mistake?

  Even if you don’t talk about the current Southern Huns, but the previous, complete Huns, can they beat the Han people?

  Has such a huge army and such a powerful tribe won the battle?

   The mighty Modu Chanyu, has he won?

   Even now, even if the third prince controls all the Southern Huns, who can they win?

  Can he defeat Li Dian from Yinshan?

   Or Changan’s Feiqian?

   Or can you win all the Han people?

  In this case, why choose war? Instead of choosing a way to let the tribe and the people not shed blood, to adapt to the changes of the times and the environment?

  『I think that at this time, the Han people should be invited to send troops to put down the rebellion quickly! ’Gergin, the elder of the Southern Huns, said in a deep voice, ‘You must take advantage of the fact that your third younger brother has not completely grasped the power, and put him down in one fell swoop, otherwise the situation may get worse! 』

  The eldest prince also knew the seriousness of the matter, but he thought that he only needed to rely on the elder Girkin of the Southern Huns, that is, his father-in-law, and there was no need to ask the Han people to help.

  If the third prince followed the old school of the Southern Huns, where force was respected in the grasslands and deserts, then the eldest prince Liu Bao followed the strategy of mutual negotiation in politics and compromise and balance.

Just looking at the Eldest Prince being beaten by the Third Prince a few times before scaring him away, he may feel that the Eldest Prince is useless and incompetent, but everything in the world cannot be viewed from just one aspect. The prince's understanding of the political situation was obviously higher than that of the third prince.

  『Please ask the Han people to send troops... 』The eldest prince sighed, 『Then the third brother will definitely die...Moreover, it is easy for the Han people to send troops, but it is not so easy to withdraw them...As much as possible, it is best for us to solve it by ourselves...』

  Girkin thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Then what do you think we should do?" 』

  『It’s not that I don’t want to follow the old path of my predecessors, nor that I don’t want to restore the glory of our Shiwei people, but the problem is that we only have such a small number of people now, how can we restore it? The eldest prince Liu Bao frowned tightly, "How are the Han people now? Armor, equipment, supplies, food and grass, which one is not better than us?" The third brother is not blind, it's not that he can't see, but he just insists on going his own way, now it's all right, even if he really succeeds Shan Yu, what can he do? With the rest of the people, fight the Han people to the last drop of blood? 』

  Elder Gerkin was silent.

  『Chan Yu, Shan Yu! Ha ha! This position, this name, is it really that important? Is it really that contentious? Liu Bao smiled wryly, hammered his legs twice, and said sadly, "If the third brother has any good ideas, if he can really take us out, let him be the Shan Yu, what does it matter? ? ! But what about him? He only knows how to be right with me, and he will do the opposite of what I want to do! Does he have his own method? Does he have plans for the future? Has he thought about what we should do in the next ten or twenty years? He just knows how to fight, kill, kill! 』

  Girkin sighed, "Man, you have to accept your fate. When I was young, I thought I was destiny, hehe, when I was old, I realized that destiny is destiny and has nothing to do with me...』

  Young people have never been old, but old people have been young. When Gerkin was young, he once felt that he could change his fate against the sky and be omnipotent, but it was only when he faced the death of his relatives and friends that he realized that he could not compete with the **** of death at all, and could only stand by. Watching loved ones die.

  『Send someone to find the third brother, I need to talk to him. 』Liu Bao made a decision.

  Gerkin asked: "So where are the Han people?" 』

  『…』The eldest prince raised his head, thought for a moment, and said, 『Send someone there too, but don’t ask for troops, just explain the situation and leave some room. On the one hand, it is to let the Han people know about the situation, and on the other hand, it is also to...』

  The eldest prince did not finish speaking, but just sighed.

  Girkin also sighed afterward.

  …ヽ(;Д｀)…

  In the royal court of the Southern Huns.

  The third prince who just sat on the throne was very surprised, "What? He wants to see me? He still has the face to see me? What does he want to do? The scum of the tribe, the traitor of the Shiwei people! 』

  Badu said in a deep voice: "Or else we can take advantage of the meeting..."

  Although this is somewhat excessive, cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots is just a means.

  The third prince was a little moved, but when he saw the faces of the old men beside him, he immediately said, "How did this happen?" We want to be upright, not engage in some low-level methods! 』

  When the buttocks are not in this position, any means can be used. Regardless of whether it is ancient or modern, whether it is a large kingdom or a small tribe, who would like a leader who is unscrupulous and does not follow any rules? And who can guarantee that for a leader who doesn't play by the rules, those methods will only be used externally, and will not be used on his own people?

  『See you then! See you tomorrow! ’ The third prince said in a deep voice.

   Cut through the mess quickly, the sooner things are settled, the better.

  『Okay, then I will make arrangements...』 The old commander nodded, saluted, and left.

  『My king, why bother? 』Badu felt that since he gained his position by killing people, why couldn't he continue killing people to maintain his majesty and protect his ass?

  『Badu...』 The third prince said with some emotion, 『It is not difficult to sit up, but it is difficult to sit firmly. 』

  People have to experience before they become experience.

   Governing a tribe may seem simple, but in fact it is not simple at all.

  Before the third prince took over, there was only a small group of people of his own. Of course, at that time, he deliberately controlled the number of his subordinates in order not to attract the attention of others, so he always handled some things by himself, without any capable subordinates.

  Badu is all about military force. It is naturally possible to let him go to war, but should Badu be in charge of government affairs...

  The other three princes have an assistant who is biased towards Wen, who knows a little bit about government affairs, but it is not enough at all. That guy is already very busy now.

  The third prince knew that if he followed Badu's method, he could indeed kill the eldest prince directly, but in this way, he really became the second in "Modun". Mao Dun had killed a lot of people to suppress him back then, but how many people can the third prince kill now? What he needs more now is to win over the neutrals, rather than make those neutrals fall to the other side.

  『Badu...』Third Prince said slowly, 『My father said back then that among the Shiwei people, or most of them, when things happen, they are divided into two types...』

  『One is, thinking about what can be gained from this matter? 』

  『The other is, thinking about what you can do for this matter? 』

"We got it before, but now it's our turn to do it..." The third prince said, "We must let all Shiwei people know that I, and you, are working hard for the freedom of Shiwei people." ! working! We are not bringing death, we are bringing a new future for Shiwei people! 』

"my king! ’ Ba Du fell to the ground and worshiped, ‘willing to sacrifice everything for the king! Including my life! 』
