After hearing this, Lu Zhi thought silently for a while.
He felt that what Liu Bei said made sense.
At least for now, it is absolutely impossible to implement the land transfer policy. It is not that it cannot be proposed, but it is impossible to implement it seriously. Those who want to do so will immediately face the situation of betrayal and separation.
Not even the head of the classic inheritance family.
So Lu Zhi could only sigh.
"Xuande, you are so smart, you always make me feel that you have found a solution to the problem."
Liu Bei shook his head and denied Lu Zhi's insight.
"I don't have a solution to the problem yet. I just know that we can't solve the problem just by solving the person who raised the problem. The problem will always exist. To solve it, it will take a lot of effort. It will never be achieved by simply changing a policy. ."
Lu Zhi smiled and reached out to pat Liu Bei on the shoulder.
"Then our master and apprentice must think of a way to see if we can solve this problem."
"Disciples respect the master's orders."
After leaving Lu Zhi's coach's residence, Liu Bei was not in a good or bad mood.
The reason why it is not a bad thing is that he can return to Luoyang to develop his own power. He has capital and can make further progress.
The reason it wasn't a good thing was that he had been hiding something from Lu Zhi, but it seemed that Lu Zhi had nothing to hide from him.
As a teacher, Lu Zhi is serious and responsible. As an elder, Lu Zhi is kind-hearted. As a senior official, Lu Zhi is responsible.
Liu Bei was very lucky.
But the luckier Liu Bei is, the more unlucky Lu Zhi seems to be.
A feeling of guilt spread in Liu Bei's heart and could not be erased for a long time.
The most terrible debt in the world is not a debt of favor, but a debt of conscience.
A few days later, Dong Zhuo led his troops back to the establishment and officially returned to the establishment. He also brought a lot of property as gifts to Lu Zhi and Liu Bei.
Lu Zhi left a little bit of the jade, and gave the rest to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei was not polite. Not only did he accept everything Dong Zhuo gave him, but he also hinted that Dong Zhuo himself was somewhat lacking in upper-class social hard currency such as gold and silver.
Dong Zhuo was so shrewd that he immediately understood what Liu Bei meant. Instead of being angry, he was very happy and immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare one hundred taels of gold and one thousand taels of silver for Liu Bei as special gifts.
So Liu Bei did not let Dong Huang return to Dong Zhuo's army. Instead, he made Dong Huang his personal soldier headquarters and planned to find him an errand in Luoyang City.
Dong Huang was very happy about this.
Being able to find a job and live in Luoyang City is an absolutely novel experience for a person like him who comes from a remote area, and he never dared to think about it before.
Dong Huang was simply happy, but Liu Bei was already planning for the ups and downs after returning to Luoyang.
He wants to stay in Luoyang, he wants to gain a foothold in Luoyang City, he wants to build his own power in Luoyang City, and further seek a higher status.
The imperial court's order to be a teacher was quickly conveyed to Jizhou, and Liu Bei and Lu Zhi embarked on their return journey together.
Lu Zhi had to return to Luoyang City to participate in the triumphal ceremony before officially receiving the seal and ribbon seal of Jizhou Mu, and then return to Jizhou to serve as Jizhou Mu. Before that, he could return to Luoyang City once.
On the way back, Lu Zhi and Liu Bei talked a lot about how Liu Bei should protect himself when he was not in Luoyang City in the future. It was nothing more than a caring heart and did not want to watch Liu Bei collapse.
Lu Zhi knew that Liu Bei and Yuan Shao had a good relationship, so he suggested that Liu Bei ask Yuan Shao if he had anything to do. Although Yuan Shao was born as a concubine, he was already the legitimate son in the patriarchal clan, and he had a lot of resources at his disposal.
Lu Zhi also knew that Liu Bei and Cao Cao had a good relationship, so he suggested that if Liu Bei encountered difficulties, he could also try to find Cao Cao. The Cao family had a special status in the court, and they could talk to each other in many aspects. Maybe in the future will be useful.
Lu Zhi also said that after he returned, he would ask Yuan Wei, Xun Shuang, Ma Rixi and others to help take care of Liu Bei. If something happened, he would try his best to protect Liu Bei.
Anyway, I have thought of all the ways I can think of. If Liu Bei cannot be saved at this point, then Liu Bei will use his own skills and learn from his predecessor Cai Yong - stay away from the rivers and seas.
If the road is uneven, take a detour. If the rivers and lakes are dangerous, retreat if you can't.
Xuande, you must not be stubborn. If you really can't do it, then run away. There is no shame in running away. For thousands of years, there has been more than one person running away. Living is more important than anything else, you know?
This is Lu Zhi's final central opinion.
He was worried that Liu Bei was young and energetic, and when he encountered an enemy that he could not deal with, he would think of dying together and lose his life in vain. He said that you must not do this. If you can't defeat him, just run away without losing face. Running away is what a good politician must do. The quality of equipment.
Anyway, Lu Zhi is still here, and his term as Jizhou Mu will not last long. As long as Liu Bei lasts for a year, he will definitely be able to return to Luoyang and serve as the Third Duke. At that time, he will be able to continue to protect Liu Bei.
Liu Bei was very grateful to Lu Zhi, but he felt that as an official who already had a little influence in Luoyang, it was somewhat shameful to run away if he couldn't fight.
At the very least, you have to try your best and then find that you still can't beat him, and then run away.
When I returned to Luoyang again, it was only three months after I left. Compared to people's more conservative and pessimistic predictions, the rebellion was put down far faster than anyone imagined.
Liu Bei immediately rushed to his father-in-law's house and was overjoyed to see his beautiful wife and concubine. If it weren't for the inconvenience at this time, Liu Bei would have come to show that he was fighting. I miss them during this period.
But love means restraint, and Liu Bei was willing to exercise more restraint, and the situation in Luoyang at that time also forced him to exercise restraint.
Because Lu Zhi's troops were the first to make a triumphant return, since Lu Zhi entered Luoyang City, the ancient literature school and the modern literature school have started internal meetings. As soon as Lu Zhi returned home to express condolences to his family, Yuan Wei and others came to the door to show him Let's go to the meeting.
Naturally, Liu Bei wasn't much better. He didn't even have time to talk to Han Ning and Han Xiaodie for a while before he was pulled away by Cai Yong who came to the door.
Cai Yong had been taking refuge in Jiangdong for five years, and caught up with the second great showdown of modern and ancient literature that Liu Bei had single-handedly promoted, and the lifting of the party ban on the ancient literature school. Therefore, Cai Yong was able to return to Luoyang and was reappointed as Yilang, which was regarded as his official reinstatement. , and also gave some compensatory rewards.
Cai Yong was the first ancient classics master Liu Bei met in Luoyang besides Lu Zhi. He had heard of Cai Yong's name when he was still on Fengshi Mountain, and he followed Lu Zhi to visit Cai Yong in Luoyang. I heard him play the piano.
Later, Cai Yong was targeted by the eunuchs because he was involved in the whirlpool of confrontation between his relative Cai Zhi and the eunuchs. He had no choice but to run away and relied on the Taiyang family to take refuge in Jiangdong.
During his refuge, he also taught a group of students with great interest, including Gu Yong, who later became the prime minister of the Sun Wu regime.
Now he is back and has become an important theoretical scholar of the ancient literature school. He has made outstanding contributions in many times against the offensive launched by the modern literature school in the name of "ritual".
Moreover, he himself quickly adapted to this new situation in which the Modern Literature School and the Ancient Literature School were clearly distinct, at odds with each other, and had no contact with each other. Compared with the leader Zheng Xuan, who was also a scholar-type official, he was obviously more adaptable to this new situation. new situation.
Seeing his arrogant look, Liu Bei only found it funny.
"Mr. Cai, why is this happening? It's not like the sky is going to fall. Can't you just let me rest at home for a while and spend some time with my wife?"
