The next day.
Li Qing and Cao Cao arrived at the Academy's teaching area. They were both slightly stunned because there was another person in front of Sima Wei.
"Meng De, you're here too?" Yuan Shao was also shocked to see Cao Cao. He had gone to great lengths to find out the location of Yingchuan Academy from his uncle. As a result, he had set off without stopping yesterday. He had traveled through the starry night and had only arrived after riding a fast horse for 500 miles from Luoyang.
He had never expected to meet Cao Cao here. Moreover, judging from his appearance, it was obvious that he had just gotten up. Oh no! Boss Yuan's heart thumped. Cao Cao had seized the opportunity.
"Primal?" Cao Cao was also shocked. Yesterday, there was Li Chengde, and now there was Yuan Benchu. This was not good. He compared Li Qing's outstanding military achievements and his position as a former general. On the other hand, Yuan Benchu's family had four generations and three dukes, and was famous throughout the world. If this was the case, he would be completely defeated.
In an instant, Boss Cao's heart turned cold. He looked at Yuan Shao and Li Qing with grief and indignation.
"And this is?" Seeing that Cao Cao was silent, Yuan Shao turned around and saw Li Qing standing there with an extraordinary bearing. He thought that Cao Cao had already recruited a strategist and couldn't help but ask.
Cao Cao came back to his senses and said,"This is the former general Li Qing and Li Cheng De. Why don't you come over and greet them?"”
After saying that, Cao Cao thought to himself,"Yuan Benchu, oh Yuan Benchu, it's good that you're here. You can fight with Li Cheng De and I'll reap the benefits."
Oh?
Yuan Shao was shocked and immediately bowed."I didn't know General Li was here.”
"No worries!" How could Li Qing not know what Cao Cao was thinking? Naturally, he could not let him get what he wanted. He said,"I came just in time. Let's go and meet Mister Shui Jing.”
When the three of them walked into the Academy's teaching grounds, most of the people from yesterday had disappeared. Only six people remained.
" Mister Shui Jing, we…" Yuan Shao was afraid that Cao Cao or Li Qing would take the initiative. He couldn't help but speak up when he saw Sima Wei.
Sima Wei smiled mysteriously when he saw the three of them and said,""I already know why everyone is here. As for the specifics, it just so happens that my students also have some questions.”
When Li Qing and the others heard this, their expressions immediately turned solemn. They all knew that this was definitely the so-called test.
Sima Wei smiled and said,"" These six are all my favorite disciples. Let me introduce them to you. This is Xu Shu, this is Xun You, a talented actor, Chen Qun, Zhong Yao, Cheng Yu…"
Hmm?
Why isn't Guo Fengxiao here?
"I wonder if there's a disciple named Guo Jia under Mister?" Li Qing asked.”
Sima Wei looked at Li Qing with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He then said,""Fengxiao went out to study and has not returned yet.”
"General Li actually knows about filial piety. If he comes back and finds out, he will be proud for a few more days.”Xun You said with a smile.
Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's hearts tightened. Li Cheng De had an acquaintance here?
However, at this moment, Sima Wei said nervously,""The three of you are all generals with outstanding military achievements. It's an honor to be able to come to our Yingchuan Academy. However, the Yellow Turban Rebellion has just subsided, the court is in turmoil, and eunuchs are in power.”
Li Qing's expression turned solemn. The show was about to begin, but he was in no hurry to speak. Instead, he looked at Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.
"In such a situation, we should use heavy laws to find the root cause. The eunuchs are in power because they rely on the emperor's prestige. We should unite with the people close to the emperor to plan a way to slowly enlighten the emperor.”Cao Cao directly said. He had long expected this test and had already thought about it.
When everyone heard this, they remained calm, but Xi Zhicai and Cheng Yu's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light.
" What Meng De said isn't very comprehensive. I think that the Yellow Turbans are wreaking havoc. We should immediately report to His Majesty and issue an edict to reduce taxes and recuperate with the people. This way, the people's hearts can be used. As for the eunuchs in power, we can ally with the aristocrats and slowly plot against them.”Yuan Shao muttered to himself for a moment before speaking.
When everyone heard this, their expressions remained unchanged. Chen Qun and Xun You nodded their heads secretly.
After the two of them finished speaking, everyone's eyes immediately focused on Li Qing.
Li Qing smiled faintly and said," What Meng De and Benchu said can be said to be a famous saying for governing a country. Unfortunately, they are all focused on the general direction. They have never considered the details."”
"I believe that the current turmoil in the court is not because the court does not respect the role model, nor is it because the hearts of the people are not useful, nor is it because the aristocrats are not united enough.”
"It's about governance. It's easy to say, but it's hard to do.”
"The current emperor has been deceived by the eunuchs, and the civil and military officials are all leaderless. They all have their own plans, but they lack a leader.”
" As long as there is one person who can lead the officials, it is enough. This person doesn't need to be very talented, but he must know people well and make good use of them. He must supervise his subordinates and restrain them layer by layer, even to the state, county, and even county. In this way, even if the eunuchs have all kinds of methods to deceive the emperor, they can still unite their hearts and listen to the emperor.”
After he finished speaking, everyone was stunned. Even Sima Wei, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao were no exception. Such a concept of governing the country was really a little ahead of their time. They never thought of it and never thought of it this way.
Now that Li Qing had said it, everyone began to ponder in their hearts. They began to analyze the feasibility of this method.
