Although there is some reason for the so-called sitting straight and sitting in a barbarian manner, in the eyes of more people, the emperor's meaning is the most important.

If you become an official under the emperor, you will also sing a counter-topic tune with the emperor.

To put it bluntly, do you think today is so easy to fool the emperor of the former Han Dynasty?

Obviously, not every official from aristocratic family is so fond of the difference between the so-called straight sitting and the Hu sitting.

The gentry is not a monolithic, nor is it without rebels.

Just like officials from the common people, there are also corrupt people.

There are individuals who betray the class, which is certain.

Besides, this kind of thing is just to satisfy the desire to be fresh and to really rise to the debate between China and the barbarians, that would be too unnecessary.

Zhuge Liang was one of the gentry officials who often went to the restaurant to drink and eat.

He found this method very interesting, innovative, pleasant to eat, comfortable, and not expensive, which can be affordable for officials like him.

The invited participants were Xu Shu, Meng Jian, Shi Tao, and Sima Yi.

A small banquet for five people was not open to the public. The five people simply had a meal and drank a wine that all five liked, which was a farewell to Zhuge Liang.

"Kong Ming, why did you choose to go out? I still don't understand."

Xu Shu honored Zhuge Liang with a glass of wine, killed it in one sip, and looked at Zhuge Liang with confusion: "Leaving Luoyang, not going to Chang'an, but going to Dunhuang... Such a distant place, there is really no wine shop, no place to have fun, and no green eyes. Have you really thought about it?"

Zhuge Liang smiled.

"Your Majesty's imperial edict has been issued, and I have to leave. Yuan Zhi, why should I say more?"

Shi Tao also toasted Zhuge Liang with a glass of wine.

"Kong Ming, you are smarter than us. You can always think of things we can't imagine. Can you tell the truth, why did you leave?"

"The truth? Guangyuan, have I ever told lies?"

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "I have already said the reason. I want to accumulate more practical experience when I am about to be reused.

I have to know what I should do in Luoyang City in the future to be beneficial to Wei State. I can’t figure out such things that I have been staying in Luoyang City. I want to go out and take a look.”

"But Dunhuang... is too far away. Isn't it possible in Guanzhong?"

Meng Jian also toasted Zhuge Liang with a glass of wine.

"Guanzhong has almost been governed. I want to go to a more deserted place and build a place from scratch, from nothing to something, from poverty to wealth. In this way, it can be considered a real political achievement and I can convince myself to return to Luoyang."

Zhuge Liang responded.

In the end, Sima Yi was left.

"Kong Ming, I will disrespect you."

Sima Yi smiled with a glass of wine in one hand and said, "Just just now, I also handed over the memorial for applying for the release. I think it won't take long to go to Liangzhou to find you."

Xu Shu, Meng Jian and Shi Tao looked at Sima Yi in surprise.

Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, and looked at Sima Yi's expression and showed a sincere smile.

"Zhongda, I thought you were just kidding."

"At first, I thought you were joking, but after thinking about it, I think you were right."

Sima Yi drank the wine in his glass in one gulp: "If I can't know what I'm doing in Luoyang City for, maybe it's meaningless for me to continue to stay in Luoyang City."

"Really go?"

"I really want to go."

Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi looked at each other and then smiled, and the scene was filled with an inexplicable atmosphere.

This made Xu Shu and the other three even more confused.

One and two rushed out of a promising place like the cabinet and went to Liangzhou to endure the wind and sun and the arduous environment. What are you trying to do?

Is it the inexplicable reason?

No matter how they think about it, they can't understand the reasons for these two people, and they always think it's stupid to do this.

People cannot understand each other, and happiness between people is not connected.

As the saying goes, I see you as stupid, and you should see you as such.

In this era when everyone treats each other as idiots, it is already rare to be able to respect each other's ideas and not speak up and just curse others without opening up.

Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi tried to understand each other and identify with each other. They did not treat each other as idiots, and were already a model of confidants.

The day after the banquet, Sima Yi was called to the Qinzheng Hall study by Guo Peng, and then came out and packed his luggage.

In the afternoon of the same day, Sima Yi received the transfer order from being the county magistrate of Guangzhi County, Dunhuang County, Liangzhou, and ordered him to prepare within five days and set off for office.

The two had a day's time difference, so Zhuge Liang set out first, and then waited for Sima Yi who arrived at the inn west of Luoyang City.

Afterwards, the two went hand in hand, savoring the most beautiful scenery on earth along the way, watching the pedestrians coming and going, and embarking on a journey to the border of the empire together.

That must be a distant and great journey.

At the same time, Mr. Guo gave his ministers a new task in Luoyang City.

History review.

Revised "Book of the Later Han Dynasty".

This is actually not what Guo himself thought of. Guo has to do too many things and has not thought of writing history books.

However, Cai Yong was idle and submitted a letter to Guo Peng one day, hoping that Guo Peng could open a place for collecting historical materials in the palace to him. He wanted to use his remaining life to compile a historical book about the Eastern Han Empire.

He wanted to collect corpses for the Eastern Han Empire, and he had his last thought, and made a copy of those whom he was familiar with or unfamiliar with, and recorded what they had experienced and happened.

So Mr. Guo thought about the study of history.

In fact, it is not his fault. To be precise, during this period, until hundreds of years later, the importance and political significance of historical books were not valued.

Moreover, until the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the revision of history books was not an official organization, but a private act. The officials of all dynasties had never thought of sending a group of people to compile history for the previous dynasties.

Including "Records of the Grand Historian", the original name was "The Book of Taishi Gong", which was Sima Qian's private historical book.

The earlier historical books of the Lu Kingdom compiled by Confucius, the "Spring and Autumn Annals" compiled by Anonymous, and the "Bamboo Annals" and so on are all private historical books of nature.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Ban Gu brothers and sisters joined forces to compile the "Book of Han".

During the late Han and the Three Kingdoms period, there were privately written historical books such as "Wei Lu", "Three Kingdoms", "Heroes", "Book of Wei", and "Book of Wu" written by bureaucrats and scholars from various countries.

By the Southern and Northern Dynasties, including "Book of the Later Han Dynasty", "Cultural Records of Huayang", etc., it was also a private historical book.

The government officials at that time did not have this awareness.

It is not believed that historical books have the political significance of what they generally recognize after the Sui and Tang Dynasties that can make a final conclusion to the previous dynasty and declare the legitimacy of their own regime.

The first person who prohibited private historical books was Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, but the Sui Dynasty's reign was short and it was not implemented.

It was not explicitly prohibited by the Tang Dynasty, but a National History Museum was set up specifically for the revision of history books.

Since then, most of the so-called official history recognized has been officially ordered to be revised in order to make a final conclusion for the previous dynasty and promote the legitimacy of its own regime.

This kind of historical book is called official history. Of course, except for the Qing Dynasty, there is no real ban on private history writing, but it is called unofficial history.

So the Qing Dynasty had to become popular in the study of the edge-to-face research.

At present, history writing is just an act of a group of social elites for some personal purpose or ambitions, and has nothing to do with the official.

For Cai Yong, it was one thing to collect corpses for the Eastern Han Empire, it was also one thing to be bored, and it was also one thing to be the same as Sima Qian and Ban Gu brothers.

He also wanted to leave something important to future generations.
