In Jiangling, the Wangjiang Pavilion is full of guests, and the meandering water flows to drink wine.
The flower brocade steps outside the barrier, and the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music can be heard. The dancer inside the barrier has light steps, her long sleeves are rolled up like clouds, and her waist is as thin as a willow.
In the meandering water, freshly picked petals of various colors floated, and bursts of floral fragrance floated with them. The wine bottle was placed on the vermilion lacquer plate and slowly flowed down with the flowing water.
On the side of the meandering water, there is a shade of bamboo, which is green and elegant. An incense burner is burning under the bamboo, and the green smoke curls up, and is soon blown away by the wind passing through the bamboo forest.
The Exorcism was supposed to be held on the first day of March, but the situation in the north changed suddenly. Huan Wen not only had to prepare for war, but also sent a letter to Jiangdong requesting the Northern Expedition. All things were complicated, so it was postponed for more than ten days.
At the end of the song, the celebrities present burst into laughter.
"Huan Gong destroyed the Han Dynasty, and his achievements are rare in ancient and modern times. He is really the Duke of Zhou!" The first person to speak was Xi Yizhi who joined the army in the expedition to the west.
In that year, Huan Wen was only thirty-eight or nine years old. He was already a county prince. He established the Yitong Three Divisions, was the general of the expedition to the west, and was the commander-in-chief of Jing Si, Yong Yi, Liang Ning and other eight states' military forces. They were stationed in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, holding in their hands An army of hundreds of thousands.
Had it not been for the dissuasion of Shangshu Zuocheng Xunrui, Huan Wen's reward would never have ended there.
Among everyone present, Xi Yizhi can only be regarded as a junior.
But the words struck a chord.
Huan Chong, the prefect of Xiyang, took a bottle of wine from the flowing water and drank it in one gulp. "Hebei is in chaos. The Shi family is attacking each other. The only one in the world who can regain his homeland is Duke Huan!"
"Now in the government, mediocre people are in power and incompetent people are in charge. The former's Northern Expedition is in an excellent situation. They can conquer both sides of the Huaihe River without any bloodshed. However, they are as afraid of Jienu as tigers and will retreat at the first touch, causing all the people in the north to lose their lives to tigers and wolves. I have a brief opinion, why does Duke Huan need to wait for the imperial court to reply? We can first determine the Three Qin Dynasties, then map the Central Plains, and then take Hebei, then everything in the world will be under the control of Duke Huan!"
Among the crowd, a man who praised Bo Xiu said loudly.
Although the world is sunny and sunny, there is still a coolness in the breeze. This man has his chest and abdomen exposed, and his expression is arrogant.
It was Yuan Hong from Huanwen's Jishi, who was born in the Yuan family of Chen County. His fifth generation ancestor was Yuan Pang, a situ of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and his sixth generation ancestor was Yuan Huan, the magistrate of Cao Wei.
His talent and academic reputation were renowned in the south of the Yangtze River. He first joined the army for Xie Shang, and then followed Huan Wen, and was highly regarded.
He is the author of "Biography of Famous Scholars in the Bamboo Forest", "Ode to Famous Officials of the Three Kingdoms", etc. He highly respects the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest and the famous officials of the Three Kingdoms.
Therefore, he is bohemian and outspoken.
"Haha, Uncle Yan is drunk." Huan Wen laughed twice while sitting on the north bank of the flowing water, not too surprised.
The gentry in the south of the Yangtze River ruled from the top, and the emperor was ignored. Therefore, the political atmosphere was much looser than that in the Western Jin Dynasty, and crimes were rarely punished for words. Under such an environment, Jiangdong literary talents emerged in large numbers.
It is no secret that Huan Wen is in charge of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and has a tense relationship with Jiangdong.
Since the young emperor Sima Dan could be controlled by Wang Xie, Xun Yin and other clans, why couldn't the Huan family follow suit?
"There was a righteous man in the south of the Yangtze River who raised an army to fight against the evil forces. In the early days, they allied with each other in Tianjin, but their hearts were in Xianyang. The army's combined strength was not unified, and the geese were hesitant... The armor was infested with lice, and thousands of people died. White bones were exposed in the wild, and there was no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. One of the many things left behind by the living people will be heart-breaking if you think about it!”
While everyone was praising it, one person recalled Wei Wu's "Hao Li Xing" inappropriately and changed the word "Guandong" in the opening chapter to Jiangnan.
It directly satirizes the discord and ulterior motives of Jiangnan people.
The originally peaceful atmosphere was instantly broken.
Everyone followed the sound and saw a group of scribes twirling their beards and sighing.
This person has a flat top and a straight skirt, deep clothes, and the cuffs are tightened with leather turbans. He is very different from the wide sleeves of everyone present, and he exudes a unique sophistication.
"Who are you?" Huan Chong looked unkind.
That man was neither humble nor arrogant, "Yanzhou, Chang Wei."
"What is your current position?"
Chang Wei had been on a mission before and had a relationship with Huan Chong, but now he deliberately suppressed him in front of everyone with his status, family background, and origin.
"As soon as you join the army."
"Humph, all of you here are famous people and governors, and have accumulated two thousand stones in their lifetimes. How dare you, a Northern captive, to speak nonsense?" Huan Chong said with an expressionless face.
The most adept warriors of the Huan family were not Huan Wen, but Huan Chong and Huan Huo, who successively served as General Yingyang, Zhenman Guards, and Prefect of Xiyang.
Like the Murong family and the Fangtou Fu family in Liaodong, the Huan family was also rich in talents. Huan Wen's younger brothers were considered temporary choices in Jiangnan. They were always the front and rear of Huan Wen's wars.
Huan Wen, who was sitting north and facing south, looked at the two people without saying a word.
Chang Wei raised his hands with a calm demeanor, not afraid of Huan Chong's pressure at all, "You are all from well-dressed and well-known families, enjoying the rich blood of China. Now the northern country is in ruins, and the common people and barbarians are in dire straits. Look up at the river with eager eyes. Dong, but there is no one in Jiangdong who is a hero. They are all people who look down upon wolves. They only fight for power and profit for their own selfish interests. No one cares about the people of Jiangshan, Wei, today, I boldly ask, what did Duke Huan do in his northern expedition?"
This statement can be called heart-breaking in every word.
Who is Huan Wen? In his early years, he was among the celebrities in Jiankang, and was as famous as Yin Hao, Xie Shang, etc. What he cared about most was his appearance.
Chang Wei was like slapping Huan Wen in the face in front of Jiangdong celebrities.
However, Huan Wen still smiled and said nothing.
He was calm and collected, but Huan Chong and Huan Huo were furious, "Bold, come here!"
Immediately from behind Hua Jin Buzhan, more than a dozen sword-armed soldiers came out, "This man..." Huan Chong glanced sideways at Huan Wen, who's eyes moved, "Cook him in a boiling pot and kill him!"
"Huh--"
Among the celebrities present, some were perverted, some were gloating about the misfortune, and some were appreciators.
The so-called famous people are most fond of character. The more unexpected they are, the more likely they are to suit their wishes.
But Chang Wei's expression remained unchanged, he laughed three times, took a bottle of wine from the running water, and drank it all in one gulp, "Good wine!"
After saying that, he threw down the wine bottle and strode towards the soldier.
"Wait a minute." Yuan Hong stopped him, "This man has come all the way from thousands of miles away to plead for the people. He is quite bold and heroic. If we cook and kill him now, the people in the north will laugh at me, Jingxiang, for not being able to tolerate others. "
The words "please serve the people" scratched Huan Wen's itch.
Chang Wei asked Huan Wen for help for the people of the Northern Kingdom, and the meaning behind it was that Huan Wen had his destiny.
Yuan Hong had followed Huan Wen for many years and naturally understood his temperament.
"Haha, everyone, don't be surprised. I just made a joke. Mr. Chang has a strong character and courage. He is a famous person in the northern country!" Huan Wen stroked his beard and smiled.
A well-maintained black beard accentuated his majestic appearance.
And Huan Wen's words, coupled with today's events, will surely be spread as good stories in Jiangnan.
The so-called celebrity, first of all, is the word "name". Chang Wei and Yan Zhijian, Huan Wen are generous and magnanimous. They each chose their own "name", which is just right.
Since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, celebrities have been invoking and boasting about each other, and their reputations have grown...
For example, Wang Rong boasted about Wang Yan: "His divine appearance is as high and pure as the beautiful trees in the Yao forest. He is naturally an alien object."
Wang Rong was once again boasted by Pei Kai: "Rong's eyes are rotten, like a rock with lightning."
When the country was in danger, his majestic appearance and rotten eyes did not stop the barbarians' random swords...
The soldiers retreated, and the atmosphere became harmonious again.
Chang Wei cupped his hands and said: "I was just in a hurry below, and I was disrespectful. I forgive you, Duke Huan. Now there is great chaos in Jie and Zhao, and the barbarians are attacking each other. If Jing and Xiang march out together, they can control the commander of the northern kingdom and regain their old capital. As the saying goes, , God will not take it, but you will be blamed for it, so Duke Huan should raise an army!"
