Chapter Twenty-Four: The Taoyuan on the World

In fact, Zhang Xiu didn't know that Liu Ye, a great talent, was actually in Lujiang and actually worked under Liu Xun. Otherwise, this trip was just Yang Hong taking Zhou Cang to Lujiang City to act.

Didn't the Romance of the Three Kingdoms say that when Cao Cao recruited talents in Yanzhou four years ago, that is, in 192 AD (the third year of the First Ping), Liu Ye had been recommended to Cao Cao by Guo Jia?

Then Liu Ye recommended Lu Qian, who was full of favors, to Cao Cao. And now Man Chong and Lu Qian are indeed serving under Cao Cao, but why is Liu Ye, the recommender, not under Cao Cao?

Zhang Xiu doesn't know much about Liu Ye's life, but he clearly knows about the life of the ghost Guo Jia. After all, Guo Jia's talent is one of the few objects of envy of Zhang Xiu in the Three Kingdoms.

Guo Jia also became Cao Cao's advisor last winter, so how did he recommend Liu Ye to Cao Cao four years ago?

However, it seems that Guo Jia was idle for six years before he became Cao Cao's military advisor. Then, you can indeed recommend your friend Liu Ye to Cao Cao, who was only the boss at the time and was eager to seek talent.

According to Yang Hong's account, Liu Ye was still in his hometown of Chengde in Huainan at that time.

Because Liu Ye did something that shocked Huainan at that time, Yang Hong still remembers it vividly.

Liu Ye held a banquet and personally slashed Zheng Bao, the biggest powerful man in Huainan at that time. Originally, he arranged for his subordinates to do it, but his subordinates retreated, and Liu Ye personally went into battle and killed Zheng Bao. and subdued Zheng Bao's thousands of men.

And the Hongmen banquet was Liu Ye lured Zheng Bao to the banquet in the name of the messenger sent by Cao Cao.

So to put it this way, this envoy was sent by Cao Cao to recruit Liu Ye after Guo Jia recommended Liu Ye.

However, Liu Ye and Guo Jia should have felt the same at the time, and they didn't know very well what the temperament of Cao Cao, who became the boss, was. decided to wait and see what happened to Boss Cao, whether he had a future.

It is estimated that when they saw Cao Cao's "feat" of slaughtering the city when he attacked Xuzhou, the two were even more hesitant.

It was Xun Yu who recommended Guo Jia, but Xun Yu defected to Cao Cao from Yuan Shao at that time. met the new boss, and the meeting gift was to sell Guo Jia.

But unexpectedly, Guo Jia also met Yuan Shao at that time, and felt that the heroes recognized by the world were actually not worthy of their names, and they were just vain. Plus I'm still too young, only twenty-one years old. Therefore, it was decided that we should wait and see, and it should not be recommended by Xun Yu.

But at the same time, it was difficult to refute the face of his fellow countryman and friend, so he recommended his friend Liu Ye to Cao Cao.

Liu Ye is also quite accurate in looking at people, but he doesn't have too many deeds to evaluate Cao Cao, and it is inconvenient for him to go to Yanzhou in Huainan. So I kept the same agreement with Guo Jia, and I didn't recommend it myself, so I recommended others to deal with it.

So Man Chong and Lu Qian were recommended to Cao Cao by Liu Ye, both of whom were from Yanzhou, and they were naturally happy to mix with Boss Cao, who was dominant in Yanzhou at that time.

Recommending and recommending is to push things about yourself and recommend others.

Trying to straighten out the relationship between these several people, Zhang Xiu also smiled, it seems that Boss Cao was not very happy in the early stage. At least it's not like the romance said that he was talented and glamorous when he first debuted. It is also a talent accumulated step by step.

It seems that he is not miserable, at least until his debut, he is not much inferior to Boss Cao in the early stage.

Listening to Yang Hong, Liu Ye later handed over thousands of parts to Liu Xun last year for some reasons. Zhang Xiu was even more determined to come to Lujiang City in person.

……

Want to listen to the theory of the world?

Liu Ye didn't refuse, just made a gesture of please. Pointing to the backyard: "Now in early spring, it is the season when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, and Liu Ye invited General Guangwu to taste wine and enjoy the flowers in Taoyuan." ”

The peach blossoms in the back garden are brilliant, the spring is bright, and the breeze is warm. Liu Ye ordered his subordinates to bring the delicacies and wine that had been prepared long ago, and Liu Ye, Zhang Xiu and Yang Hong sat in the grass pavilion.

Hu Che'er, Zhou Cang, and Pei Yuanshao had little interest in enjoying the flowers, so the three of them originally planned to eat outside the back garden.

However, as soon as they heard that it was Taoyuan, Pei Yuanshao, Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang didn't know what they had discussed in a whisper, so the three of them sat cross-legged on the ground and sat in the Taoyuan far away from Zhang Xiu and the others.

"The general trend of the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. Dare to ask Mr. What do you think of the current trend in the world? Zhang Xiu said in advance.

A long time must be divided, a long time must be together? Liu Ye and Yang Hong couldn't help but savor it after hearing this. Zhang Xiu then remembered that this was the opening paragraph of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. There is no such thing yet.

"I didn't expect General Guangwu to have this insight, I was only a general of Guangwu who was extraordinary, but I didn't expect this Wen Tao to be evaluated!" Liu Ye said: "This will be divided for a long time, Liu Ye understands, it is nothing more than that the Han family has exhausted its qi!" This destiny is also not an ordinary manpower that can be changed. ”

Zhang Xiu and Yang Hong's eyes widened. "The Han family is exhausted" is not strange when other people say it, but the key thing is that when Liu Ye comes out of his mouth, this nature is different.

Because this Liu Ye is an authentic Han family relative, everyone in the world knows it! He said that the Han Dynasty was exhausted, and that really made people have to think about it carefully.

Liu Ye's reaction to Zhang Xiu and Yang Hong had long been expected: "To put it well, this is the cycle of heavenly principles, and the five fortunes alternate. To put it mildly, it is the feng shui in the proverb that takes turns. The Great Han Kingdom has been in existence for nearly 400 years, which is already very difficult. ”

"Even though there is no shortage of people who have a Han family in their hearts and support the Han Dynasty. However, the fortunes of the country cannot be postponed, and the mandate of heaven cannot be changed. General Guangwu, what do you say?"

In the eyes of others, Liu Ye is tempting, after all, as a relative of the Han family, Liu Ye inevitably has the ambition to help the Han family. It's just that it may be hidden deeply, or it may be waiting for a lord who has the ambition to help the Han family.

But Zhang Xiu knew that what Liu Ye said just now was from his heart, he was really not optimistic about the Han court, otherwise, how could he serve Cao Cao in real history? How could he have assisted two emperors for the Cao Wei Dynasty?

So Zhang Xiu only pondered for a moment, and then said: "That's right, history is always advancing. Vainly trying to maintain the status quo will eventually be crushed by the wheels of history. It's just that Zhang Xiu disagrees with the theory that the five fortunes alternate the cycle of five virtues. ”

Liu Ye suddenly felt refreshed, the wheel of history?

"General, but it doesn't matter, Liu Ye has never been the kind of stubborn person."

"The direction of society is always moving forward in twists and turns, just like this peach tree. When it was first planted, it was just a sapling, but it grew stronger and stronger year by year. Even though there are frequent storms and pests, pests and diseases. But as long as the tree does not die, it will eventually blossom and bear fruit. ”

"The rise and fall of dynasties is also inevitable. Peach trees sprout, grow leaves, flower, bear fruit, mature, fall leaves, and wither in a year. The coming year will be another cycle, and life will not end, and the cycle will not stop. ”

This is like the rise and fall of dynasties, there is vitality when it rises, there is also the unbeatable when it is developed, there is also the ordinary plainness of the inheritance, and there will be ups and downs when it withers. And another dynasty arose, and these had to be repeated. As long as a nation still exists, the cycle of alternating political power in this country will not stop. ”

"The only thing else is that the timing of the dynastic change is not set in stone. It's as if the Zhou Dynasty maintained this cycle for eight hundred years, while the Qin Dynasty lasted only fifteen years. Dahan is already very good, and the four hundred years of national glory are enough to be proud of Xia Shang. ”

The theory of alternating the five virtues seems to be very reasonable, reflecting the inevitability of the rise and fall of dynasties, but in fact, it is just a propaganda means for the emperors of various dynasties to hide the eyes and ears of the world and show that they are orthodox. What does Mr. Liu think? ”

Liu Ye nodded deeply: "What General Guangwu said is exactly what I want to understand thoroughly when I think about it at night. Listening to the general's order today, I have a feeling of being sudden. ”

Then Liu Ye couldn't help but sigh: "Yes, every time a dynasty rises, the world will be in chaos." After the chaos, then there was the great determination. Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Han Dynasty has become more and more dissatisfied with the king, and there are many people who are called heroes. Although this world is still called the world of the Han Dynasty, there is actually no land that is 'king's land'. ”

"The Han family has been peaceful for a long time, the dynasty has long been sluggish, and the people's hearts have long been gone; The family of gate valves has become a climate early, and the ministers have different thoughts. At this time, even if Emperor Guangwu is reincarnated, he may not be able to renew the life of the Han court. ”

"It's just that there is chaos before there is a big decision. I, Liu Ye, don't hate those who are the heroes in the world, I just hate that I can't find the Lord as soon as possible, help him to stabilize the world as soon as possible, and save all the people in the world from fire and water. ”

At this time, Zhang Xiu had a new understanding of Liu Ye, who can be said to be a typical representative of a considerable number of great sages and powers in this era.

This kind of person is a wise and powerful person, who has the world in mind, but does not blindly choose the master. They are waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the lord who has the same philosophy as themselves, waiting for a majestic lord who has the ability to end this troubled world.

For example, the ghost genius Guo Jia, and for example, Wolong Zhuge and Feng Xiao Pang Tong are all this kind of people. They are waiting for their own lord, waiting for the real lord of troubled times.

"So what kind of person does Mr. think can be regarded as a master and a hero?" Zhang Xiu's eyes looked directly at Liu Ye, he wanted to know the answer he had always wanted in his heart.

Liu Ye glanced at Zhang Xiu, he found a trace of something unusual in Zhang Xiu's eyes, although he didn't know what it meant, he knew that Zhang Xiu was eager to know his answer now.

"Please forgive Liu Ye for being stupid, this is the standard of the master, Liu Ye really does not have the ability to make a conclusion. But Liu Ye can say to the general, in this world now, those people must not be the masters! ”

"I want to hear about it."

"Such as Liu Zhang in Yizhou and Liu Biao in Jingzhou, although they are all relatives of the Han family, they are just dogs who defend the land. A cowardly and incompetent, a woman's kindness. ”

"Youzhou Gongsun Zhan, Montenegro Zhang Yan, Yongzhou Li Dao Guo Yan, Xiliang Ma Teng Han Sui, and Xuzhou Lu Bu, only prefer martial arts, despise the law, do not produce, and will be defeated sooner or later."

"Such as Hanzhong Zhang Lu, Yuzhang Liu Xuan, Liaodong Gongsun Du and Jiaozhou Shijia and other generations, either small and weak, or have no ambitions, or a corner of peace, it is difficult to achieve great things."

"Now there are only four people who have the strength and ability to win the championship."

"First, Yuan Shao, Hebei. The fourth generation and three dukes of the Yuan family, the protégés and former officials are all over the world, and the grace is all over the Central Plains. I believe that the general had already felt this when he conquered Huainan. A small captain who guards the city can repay the kindness of the Yuan family decades ago, and make the general's plan to capture the king fall short. ”

"This is just Yuan Shu, so now almost all of Yuan Shao in Hebei, under his subordinate military generals, what should be the degree of loyalty?"

"Fang Cai is Yuan Shao, who is the most powerful person today. And the second place, although the soldiers and horses are not as good as Yuan Shao, but the soldiers are not inferior to Yuan Shao, and his personal talent is even better than Yuan Shao in Liu Ye's opinion. And now he occupies the name of righteousness, sitting on the two states of Yan and Henan, which is really a rare male lord of the world. ”

"Cao Cao, Cao Mengde." Zhang Xiu said this name for Liu Ye, and it seems that Liu Ye also thinks that Cao Cao has a better chance of defeating Yuan Shao.

"Yes," Liu Ye nodded, and continued: "Cao Mengde is in the hinterland of the Central Plains, the soldiers are brave, and the good ministers are brave. Internally repair the law, recruit talents, and re-produce; Win the Central Plains externally and compete for the world. Although there is a risk of four wars, there is no threat to the surrounding princes, except for Yuan Shao. Sooner or later, this will dominate the Central Plains. ”
