Murong Fu glanced at the old people at the head of the village. He knew that he still had a lot to do in the future. Even though everything was going in a good direction, nothing was accomplished overnight. In the process, sacrifices were also made. It is inevitable after all.
If he wants to revive the Yan Dynasty, he can only step on the withered bones piled up by the common people at dawn in the world to rise to the top. If his heart is not strong, he will be devoured by it.
Murong Fu came to the end of the village with heavy steps, and was faced with hundreds of people farming, including Khitan people and people from the Song Dynasty. When he arrived in his Yanbei land, both the Song people and the Khitan people would treat them equally and would not discriminate based on their status. and be discriminated against or treated differently.
At first, the people of the Song Dynasty were a little afraid of the Khitan people. After all, in their impression, the Khitan people were all barbarians who drank blood. They were afraid that if they didn't pay attention, they would be caught and eaten by them and reduced to food rations. ?.?????.ℂ??
However, after this period of contact, they discovered that although the Khitan people were rough-looking, they were very sincere in their treatment of others and were extremely enthusiastic about their arrival. This made the wary Song people at a loss what to do.
However, after seeing that these Khitan people were not as barbaric and difficult to get along with as rumored, the people of the Song Dynasty gradually let down their guard and were able to live together in relative harmony.
Of course, not everyone is so easy to get along with. There are also people who particularly hate the Khitans and do not want to be associated with them.
The city lord of the county will manage these people in a unified manner and arrange for them to live elsewhere.
In addition to the working people, there are also many merchants and some elegant scholars dressed as literati visiting here.
Businessmen are very profit-oriented and are known as geese plucking their feathers. After learning about the unique management method of Liaoxi County, they naturally wanted to see if it was profitable.
And most of those literati and elegant people are from well-off families. They usually have nothing to do, travel around and pass through this place.
"Brother, is this your first time in Liaoxi County?"
A sudden voice sounded behind Murong Fu. He looked back and saw a young gentleman in his twenties and forties bowing to him, with a somewhat humble smile on his face.
"Exactly!"
Murong Fu had no interest in those so-called literati, but he held out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man, so he still bowed his hand in return.
"My surname is Zhu, my name is Dunru, and my given name is Xizhen. I am from Luoyang. I wonder what I call my brother?"
Zhu Dunru was originally introduced by a friend to this place in Yanbei to gain knowledge, but unexpectedly his friend left beforehand, leaving him alone here.
When the scribes saw his extraordinary bearing, they all wanted to come over and make friends. However, Zhu Dunru prided himself on being aloof and looked down upon these peddlers, so he simply hid under a tree to enjoy the cool weather. Ignore it.
It wasn't until the appearance of Murong Fu that his eyes lit up, and he felt that only people with such extraordinary temperament were worthy of being friends with him... No, it should be that only such people were worthy of him taking the initiative to approach him. yes.
Then this scene appeared.
Murong Fu didn't pay much attention at first, but when he heard the other party's name, he was stunned for a moment.
Zhu Dunru... could he be Mr. Luo Chuan, the "Poetry Master" who is also known as the "Eight Masters of Luozhong" together with the "Poetry Master" Chen Yuyi?
It was rumored that this man had a talent for managing the world. In history, he was recommended to be an official several times but did not take up the post. It was not until he was in his fifties that he went to Beijing to take up his post under the advice of his relatives and friends.
During his reign, due to political party disputes, he did not achieve any outstanding political achievements. It was not until he was impeached that he was appointed by Qin Hui to serve as minister of Honglu Temple. Unfortunately, Qin Hui died of illness a month later, and he was appointed again. Dismissal from office has directly become a major stain in life.
In his official career, it can be said that Zhu Dunru had no outstanding achievements. The only thing that will be remembered by future generations is his poetry and his title of "Ci Jun", one of the eight heroes in Luozhong.
As for whether he really has the talent to manage the world, it really needs to be verified.
These thoughts only flashed through Murong Fu's mind. Facing Zhu Dunru's request for advice, he smiled lightly and said, "My Excellency, Li Yanzong, is from Jiangnan. Brother Zhu is polite!"
"Li Yanzong? This name is the same as that of a guest envoy from the Xixia Dynasty and Song Dynasty. I heard that Li Yanzong was also a military general of the Xixia Kingdom... Civil and military affairs have been incompatible since ancient times, but the song "Tong Guan Guan" written by General Li, But it made me feel so deeply that I will never forget it!"
Zhu Dunru was surprised at the other party's name at first, and then talked about the events of that year, as if he had opened a chat box, talking endlessly.
Although Murong Fu spread this poem through the mouth of Helian Tieshu, after returning to Xixia, Helian Tieshu did not want to take the credit from Murong Fu, so he told the truth of that day.
Therefore, this incident gradually spread back to the Song Dynasty and became known to the people of the Song Dynasty.
And even before it was confirmed, it was just a rumor, but it was already confirmed by the talented people in Bianliang of the Song Dynasty. After all, they would rather believe that this poem that has been passed down through the ages was written by an unknown person in Xixia than admit that it was Helian Tieshu, the marshal of the Xixia Kingdom who conquered the east.
The original intention was not to admit that they were not as good as a martial artist. Unexpectedly, when more accurate news came back, it turned out that Li Yanzong was also a martial artist. This made all the talented people in Bianliang fall silent!
Murong Fu looked at Zhu Dunru who was telling him about this poem incessantly. Although the protagonist in the other person's mouth was himself, this shocking poem was not his original creation. Naturally, he would not shamelessly tell the other person that I am that person. Li Yanzong of the Western Xia Dynasty was the person who wrote "Tong Guan Guan".
Seeing that Zhu Dunru kept talking, Murong Fu interrupted helplessly: "Brother Zhu, I don't know how you feel when you come to Funing Village today?"
Zhu Dunru also realized that he had lost his composure. He coughed twice, looked at the people in Funing Village who were farming, and sighed: "Song people and Khitan people farmed and worked together, and they could get along so harmoniously. This is something I never expected. .”
Murong Fu smiled and said: "Khitan people are also human beings, so why not?"
Zhu Dunru said: "If Brother Li had said these words to my younger brother before coming to Yanbei, my younger brother would not believe it even to death. But seeing the scene today makes me a little ashamed!"
Although he has no official position and is an idle person, of course, he does not disdain to be an official, but if one day, he, Zhu Dunru, can become an official in the court, if a foreign enemy invades the country, he will report an attack and will never give in!
In his heart, he is a militant, so he has always had a grudge against the Khitan, Xixia and other foreigners, believing that they must have different hearts if they are not from my race.
But after seeing the scene of Song people and Khitan people farming together today, he suddenly discovered that the Khitan people are also human beings. They are just Khitan people, not the murderous beasts on the battlefield that slaughtered the Song army.
Only at this moment did he understand that when the two countries are at war, it is always the innocent people who suffer. Whether they are the people of the Song Dynasty or the people of the Liao Kingdom, they are actually the same.
