Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 2653 This is a great move

   Large pieces of clouds were floating in the sky, the sun hid among the clouds, suddenly emerged from here, and then suddenly hid in another cloud.

  A team of prison cars marched forward on the official road.

   Looking out from the prison car, the sky and the earth are divided into grids. It seems that there are intervals in the sky, and there are intervals in the earth, and between these intervals is Kong Rong himself.

   Kong Rong suddenly remembered, how long has it been since he looked up at the sky?

  Can’t remember.

  It seems that when he was young, he liked to look at the sky, the clouds, the sun, the moon and the stars, and the distant world, but it has been a long, long time since he has watched it like this.

  Now he is locked in the prison car, but he begins to see the sky, the cloud, and the distance again, as if he had seen it in his previous life.

  His surname is Kong, a descendant of Kong Zhongni, the sage of the Spring and Autumn Period.

   This is what countless people told him when he was young.

  As a descendant of Confucius, how can you be naughty?

  As a descendant of Confucius, how can you make a lot of noise?

  As a descendant of Confucius, how can you not study?

  As a descendant of Confucius…

  Kong Rong’s elder brother is more straightforward. Once he directly contradicted his father, saying why as a descendant of Confucius, he must study, he must pay attention to his manners, he must always abide by the rules, he must do this and that...

   Then naturally I was taught a lesson.

  Kong Rong saw his elder brother’s lessons learned, of course he was more obedient, and consciously took some actions to meet the needs of the elders...

   For example, let pears.

   Do you really think that children don’t know that small pears may be more sour?

   Or are you stupid enough to think that there were improved varieties in the Han Dynasty?

  Kong Rong finally grows into what his parents most want to see, and then...then he doesn't know what he should be like.

  The surname of Kong is a large ethnic group in Zouyi. Basically, the surname of Kong is everywhere, and other surnames are rare. These Kong families who gathered together once again imposed various standards on Kong Rong after the death of Kong Rong's parents. They hoped that Kong Rong would be a person who could bring them fairness, justice, and justice.

   Then Kong Rong became the person they hoped for.

The Kong family has a large group with a long history, and the natural interpersonal relationship is very complicated. There are countless marriages and relatives, friends and friends of friends, and there are even more people who have a little relationship with Kong Rong. People, I hope that Kong Rong can be famous enough to be able to say that I am a good friend of Kong Rong, a good friend, and a cousin of Kong Rong's second uncle's third brother's sister-in-law. Uncle's fourth sister's nephew...

   Then Kong Rong became the person they hoped for.

   As for what kind of person he wanted to be when he was a child, Kong Rong has already forgotten, just like a pear that was given up, abandoned, eaten, and gone.

   The continuous praise from the surroundings made Kong Rong think that he was on the most correct path.

  If I made a mistake, would I still receive these compliments?

   Obviously not.

   Then, in turn, if I get praise, it means that I am not wrong.

   Isn't it like this?

  Kong Rong believes that the wishes of his parents are also his wishes. It's like crying at the grave and not haggard, you should kill yourself. A person who does not honor his parents and fails to live according to his parents' wishes has no meaning of existence.

Kong Rong likes to listen to other people's praise, but he never shows it, because he knows that it does not meet the standard of modesty, so he will listen to the praise, and then slowly say that others are absurd, praise, and he did it himself Not enough, not good.

  Then others went on to praise Kong Rong for being modest and prudent, with a great Confucian demeanor.

   Then Kong Rong listened quietly again, and then slowly said that he was just following Kong Shengren's request, following the legacy of the elders in the family, and had nothing to show off, and then left.

   Then others will definitely continue to praise Kong Rong behind him, saying that Kong Rong is worthy of being a descendant of Kong Sheng and inheriting the fine tradition of Kong Rong...

  Such a set of procedures, Kong Rong was very proficient at first, just like eating and drinking water, until one day he met the yellow scarf thief.

  A yellow scarf thief who is different from everyone Kong Rong has encountered before.

In fact, in the Han Dynasty, as long as the local officials did not mess around, did not corrupt, and did not extort excessively, the people under their rule were already grateful. There was no need to build this road today, dig that ditch tomorrow, and plant that tree the day after tomorrow. To tear it down and do it again will make the common people feel that this official is not bad, at least it will not disturb the people.

  Kong Rong in Beihai is an official who doesn't disturb the people very much. He likes to read, he reads when he has nothing to do, and even likes to read with everyone, so he built a school and listened to the sound of reading aloud, and he was very satisfied. One day, the Yellow Turban thief came.

  The yellow turban thief clamored: "I want money, I want food, I want things!" Much, much more! 』

  Kong Rong looked at the warehouse list, and replied helplessly, "No, Beihai doesn't have much food and goods. You want so much, but there really isn't any!" 』

  The yellow turban thief couldn't believe it, "How can there be no money, food and goods in such a **** big Beihai?" What we want is not much, but hundreds of thousands of shi of grain, thousands of horses, and tens of thousands of sets of armor. How could we not have it? Beihai is so big! Such a big Beihai, why can't we get these pinches? 』

  Kong Rong said, "There really isn't one, let alone Beihai, the whole country of Lu doesn't have so many things..."

  The yellow turban thief laughed: "That's because you are stupid!" Have you ever seen someone else become an official? Have you never seen how other people scraped the ground? After staying in Beihai for so long, you can't even get this little thing? You are a piece of trash! 』

  Kong Rong frowned, "How can you scold people?" 』

  The yellow scarf thief was very happy, "I will scold you, what's the matter?" I don't think you have any self-knowledge! As such a great Prime Minister of Beihai, if he can't even get this little thing, it's really embarrassing for the big Han local officials! Go back to the group, paralyzed! 』

  Kong Rong couldn't understand, "I have no place for corruption, why am I being scolded?" 』

  The yellow turban thief laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten up, "Weak chicken! I scolded! how? Come and bite me! 』

  Kong Rong tried to reason, "Everyone is from Shandong, and they are all from the village..."

  The yellow turban thieves who were born in Shandong, and the folks in Kong Rong’s hometown, didn’t want to listen to what Kong Rong had to say. What a fart! What are you talking about! You **** said these have a der use! Fuck it, give me the money! Give food! If you don't give it, you will die! to die! Go to hell! 』

  Kong Rong couldn't continue talking, so he walked away silently.

  The yellow turban thieves cheered, jumped for joy, and made a louder noise, as if they were celebrating their own victory.

   Then the people in the city also began to scold Kong Rong.

  Because Kong Rong failed to defeat these yellow turban thieves.

  Kong Rong was very puzzled, and said sincerely: "I also want to defeat the Yellow Turban Bandit, but I don't have enough soldiers, and..."

  『We don’t care, we don’t understand these things, why are you talking so much? We just want to know, when will the Yellow Turban be defeated and the peace and tranquility of Beihai restored? 』

  Kong Rong was even more puzzled, "If you want to defeat the Yellow Turban, you must first have enough troops!" And if you don't understand, then I asked you before, when you said you want to increase the number of troops, why did you say that the cost is too high, there will be no Yellow Turbans here, and there is no need to increase the number of soldiers? 』

  The villagers roared angrily, "We just say it casually, and you will believe it?" Are you an idiot? You trash! Even the yellow turban thieves can't defeat it! It made it impossible for us to live a good life. Are you an officer? Die, die, die quickly! 』

Kong Rong looked at these people blankly, because he found that a few days before the Yellow Turban Bandit came, these people still said that he was a good official and praised him as a good person, but now, the same people are She was swearing, cursing, using the most vicious words, gritting her teeth, twisting her face, spitting at Kong Rong, pointing fingers and trying to make him die.

   It's like Kong Rong's death, they can be happy and avoid the disaster in front of them. They never really want to solve any problems, they only think about insulting and venting, and they don't want to see and hear what the truth is, they only recognize what they think the truth is.

  The clouds in the sky seem to be floating lazily, while the prison car is gurgling forward on the ground, but it seems that it will never catch up with the clouds in the sky.

  The sky darkened.

   Camped out.

   Someone threw two black pancakes into the prison car.

  Kong Rong didn't move.

  Kong Rong wanted to die. It seems that death is not so terrible. If you can make others happy and praise you by dying yourself, then you should die yourself.

   Just like his older brother back then.

  The torch was lit, and Xi Xi walked up to the prison car, "Brother Wen Ju? Wake up! Kong Wenju! 』

  Kong Rong slowly turned his head and looked at Xi Ji.

  『Brother Wen Ju? Do you...know your mistake? ’ Xi Xi asked softly.

  Among the four fields, the night is heavy.

  The distant mountains are like tombs, standing as far as the eye can see.

   Xi Xi didn't wait for Kong Rong's response, frowned, snorted, flung his sleeves and left.

  The next day, the sun rose again, and those grave mounds changed from dark to dark green.

  The prison car staggered and continued on the road, heading towards the road of death.

  The next night, Xi Ji came again, "Kong Wenju! Are you guilty? 』

   Xi Xi’s voice is majestic, as if the most just judge is pronouncing the sentence, why help him if he didn’t do evil?

  In the grass beside the prison car, a cricket seemed to be shocked by Xi Xi's words, paused for a while, then changed its place, and started singing again.

   Xi Xi still didn't get a response from Kong Rong, and left a little angrily.

  The third day.

  Cao Xun found Xi Ji, "Dr. Yushi, I'm about to arrive in Xu County, Kong Wenju...hasn't he pleaded guilty yet?" 』

   Xi Xi was silent, shaking his head.

  Cao Xun looked at Xi Ji and said, "This is impossible, Doctor Yushi...how could Kong Wenju not plead guilty?" You say, right? Plead not guilty, what is this trying to do? 』

   Xi Ji was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Cao Xun, "Hiss...you mean..."

  『The lower official is just a member of the army, so I don’t understand these things... 』 Cao Xun said, with a half-smile, 『It’s up to Dr. Yushi to make up his mind... After all, Xu County is coming soon...』

   Cao Xun left after speaking.

   Xi Ji looked at it, then turned back to look at the prison car behind the queue, and then turned back to look at Cao Xun in front, swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

  At night, Chi Chi walked up to the prison cart, "Open the prison cart! Feed him down! 』

  Several soldiers pulled Kong Rong fiercely, stood up, pried open his mouth, unplugged the syrup wine bag, stuffed it into Kong Rong's mouth, "Drink!" drink it! 』

   Physalis water, of course, doesn't taste very good, but it can replenish water and nutrients.

   As long as Kong Rong doesn't die on the road, that's fine.

  A bag of physalis water, half of the bag was either choked, or flowed outside, and the other half was drunk. Kong Rong wanted to vomit, but he couldn't, because his body was instinctively craving these things, and he had already begun to absorb them crazily.

   Xi Ji waved his hand, telling the soldiers to throw Kong Rong into the prison cart again.

  『Kong Rong! Why is this necessary? ’ Xi Chi said slowly, ‘The Son of Heaven treats you well, so why do you do such a treasonous act? 』

  『Cough cough cough...what? ! ’Kong Rong couldn’t believe the words he heard, ‘What did you say? Conspiracy...conspiracy? I? I plot against? ! 』

   Xi Xi nodded slightly, "That's right! Treason! 』

  『Have I conspired against you? ! 』Kong Rong boasted that he was extremely loyal to the big man. Such a crime simply destroyed his original moral foundation. By the way, he also poured a bucket of fermented excrement on him, just like the sour syrup on his body now.

"According to the investigation, when you were in Beihai, you saw that the royal family was restless, and recruiting disciples, wanting to rule out the law, there is a cloud saying, "After my great sage, I saw that it was destroyed in Song Dynasty. If there is a world, why use a golden sword. "" Chi Chi said with a smile, "This kind of action is not treason, what is it?" 』

"what? I never said anything like that! ’Kong Rong said angrily.

"you said before. 』Xi Xi’s voice was steady, as if he was narrating an indistinguishable fact.

  『Why do you need a golden knife? Kong Rong leaned on the prison car, "You are really... If I really want to say something, after I am a dignified Kong family, how can I say such vulgar words?" 』

"Oh? what would you say then ’ Xi Lu asked.

  『I…』Kong Rong reacted,『I didn't plot against you! I didn't say anything! If I really recruited some disciples back then, how could I be defeated by the Yellow Turban? 』

"Uh... this... um..." Chi Chi thought for a while, "It's probably because there are still loyal people among the disciples you recruited, and then you attracted the Yellow Turban, and the inside should cooperate with the outside... Um, no, the Yellow Turban is also a traitor, so It was you who originally wanted to conspire with the Yellow Turban thief, but in the end the division was uneven, the negotiation broke down, and in the end the Yellow Turban ruined your treasonous plan, which forced you to flee Beihai... By the way, it must be like this...』

  Kong Rong laughed out of breath, not wanting to talk to Xi Ji.

  "Look..." Xi Xi was very satisfied, "I have hit the mark! Come on, write down, on a certain day in a certain month, someone reprimanded Kong Ni with dignified words. Kong Ni was frightened by righteousness, and he was speechless and confessed! Sign and draw! 』

   Another soldier rushed forward, grabbed Kong Rong's hand, painted it with ink, stamped his handprint, and handed it to Xi Ji. Xi Xi looked up and down by the light of the fire, and gently, as if treating a precious treasure, he blew on the imprints on the wooden tablet, especially the half-dried one, which looked like solidified blood. Kong Rong's handprint, and then left contentedly.

  The news of Kong Rong’s confession, admitting that he was treasonous, and signing his signature, like a spring breeze, um, a summer breeze, quickly blew to Xu County, wrinkling the water in Xu County.

  People in twos and threes gathered together.

"Hey! Have you heard? Kong Wen rebelled! It turned out to be treason! 』

"are you an idiot? Kong Wenju could say "why use a golden knife"? Vulgarity and straightforwardness are like country talk! As for the "Mao Jin Dao", why not say "Xiao'er Point" or "Xuan Niao Zi"? 』

  『How is it impossible? Are you next to me? Did you hear that? What vulgarity? What if Kong Wenju accidentally said this when he was drunk? Aren't you vulgar when you're drunk? When you are drunk, can you still recite poems, compose fus, and quote scriptures? 』

  『Okay, even if Kong Wenju said it while drinking, or whenever he said it, then who heard it? Servant? Guard? Or the person at the same banquet? And who told this after so long? Why didn't he say it before, Kong Wenju didn't say it when he was in office, and now he suddenly said it again? 』

  『This...how do I know this? You ask me, who am I to ask? You are so capable, why don't you go to heaven? Tell me a der? 』

  The two suddenly broke out in a fierce quarrel, and they greeted each other's family women eagerly, and almost fought. The two of them were close to each other, chest to chest, face to face, saliva to saliva, and waved their arms to each other, with wide movements, but they definitely wouldn't touch the corner of each other's clothes. The roar of "Pull me" gradually separated, completely forgetting that what I was talking about before was related to Kong Rong's life and death.

Right.

  Whether Kong Rong rebelled or not, it's someone else's story.

  Similarly, there are some people who don’t bother to argue whether the "Mao Jin Dao" is what Kong Rong said, because these people know that the "Mao Jin Dao" is not the key to the whole matter.

   These people don't meet in public, nor do they argue loudly, they just hide in the dark shadows, rustling like crickets in the grass.

  『He dare not kill him! 』

  『He is Wen Kui! Leader of Shandong Wending! How dare he? ! 』

  『He wants us to intercede for him now! Bow your head before him! 』

  『Yes, just like last time! 』

  『We cannot be fooled! 』

  『Never be fooled! And you can set him on fire..."

"right! What is virtue? ! Orthodoxy can be called virtuous! The difference between the front and the side is a matter of human relations! 』

  『Orthodoxy is inheritance! 』

  『Yes, yes! Go and tell him not to be afraid! Hold on to the end! 』

  『Then see how he steps down! We're going to hang him up! Go up! Hahaha! 』

  『Yes, yes, it will look better then, hahahaha...』

  『This move is wonderful! 』
