There are many famous families in Yingchuan, among which the most dazzling ones are the Xun family, the Li family, and the Chen family. Xun is the descendant of Xunzi of the Warring States Period, generation after generation of talents, in recent years some people called the god of Xun Shu, Xun Shu's eight sons are also very good and have supernatural talents, known as Xun's eight dragons, Ciming is unique. And Xun Shu's brother's two sons Xun Tan, Xun Yi is also very good, the two are among the eight horses, "the world is good friends Xun Botiao" is to praise Xun Yi for being open-minded and good at intersecting with people. The outstanding ones after that are the well-known Xun Yu and Xun Yu among the five great strategists of Cao Cao, a pair of uncles and nephews. And the most famous person in the Li family is Li Ying, who died because of plotting to kill the eunuch, at that time Li Ying's fame was so prosperous, the scholars were all proud to be able to visit him, called it Denglongmen. Kong Rangli was famous all over the world because he had deceived the gatekeeper and was praised by Li Ying. Although Li Ying died, his prestige during his lifetime still sheltered his family. And his children and grandchildren are also very good talents, all of them have achieved 2,000 stones. The Chen family arose because of Chen Yu, one of the four elders of Yingchuan, and Chen Yu's sons Chen Ji and Chen Chen are very good because of their virtue and talent, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and bad, which is the source of the idiom difficult brothers. His grandson is a political strongman with at least ninety-seven political attributes, Chen Qun, the proposer of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system.

These three are the three most famous in Yingchuan, and the other scholars are slightly less famous, but they are also very influential, such as the Changshe Zhong family, the Yang Zhai Guo family, the Yang Zhai Xin family, etc.

So after Yun entered Yingchuan, he fell into a busy, this time he was not incognito like before, hurried by, but with great fanfare, first visited the Li family, and then went to Yangzhai, the capital of Yingchuan, to visit the Xin family, the Guo family and other families, and finally the big head, Yun went to visit the Xun family.

When the Xun clan gathered and lived, when the eight dragons became famous, the Yingchuan County Order at that time said that the Gaoyang clan had eight sons who were all sages, and the Xun clan also had eight, so the place where the Xun family lived was named Gaoyangli.

At this time, Xun Qu, the son of Xun Tan, managed the affairs of the clan, and Xun Qu also had extraordinary talents, but in the early years, because of the party's strength, he had been wasting his time and was slightly old. Yun visited Xun Qu, and he, like some previous families, introduced some outstanding talents in the clan to Yun.

And after spending a lot of time, Yun worked tirelessly, visiting the famous clans and famous people in Yingchuan one by one, and finally got a total of more than 200 Yingchuan scholars, although there are no outstanding talents among them, most of them are Chinese people, but it is enough to take on the goal of cloud balance and state faction and centralization. The only thing that makes Yun a little regretful is that those outstanding talents in Yingchuan at this time, the pillars of Cao Wei's forces in the future, such as Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Zhong Xuan, and Chen Qun are not in Yingchuan.

Then a Xun clan member recommended him to the talent he was very surprised, this Xun clan named Xun Zhen said: "My brother Wen Ruo often intersected with Yang Zhai Xizhong, and told me that Xizhong has Chen Ping's talent, and Ming Gong wants to settle the world, this person can help." "Hey, Xi Zhong, isn't this person Guo Jia's predecessor, Cao Cao's early main strategist Xi Zhicai.

Yun Daxi, can be Cao Cao's early strategist, if it weren't for his short life, it is estimated that Xun Yu would not have recommended Guo Jia, although Xi Zhicai is not famous in history, but it is estimated that he is also a talent with a wisdom of more than ninety, so he took Xun Zhen's hand and said: "If it weren't for Zhenzhi, I almost missed the talent." ”

immediately changed into civilian clothes and went to visit Xi Zhicai under the leadership of Xun Zhen.

Xi Zhicai was born in a poor family and his family was poor, when Yun and Xun Zhen Zhang flew to the door of Xi Zhicai's house, they saw that the door was wide open, and there was a lot of noise and hustle and bustle inside.

Yun looked at Xun Zhen suspiciously, and Xun Zhen explained calmly: "The drama is loyal and informal, and it is sprinkled for people, and it often plays with the citizens and at home. ”

If someone else saw Xi Zhong like this, they would definitely deny his talent and turn away, but because of this, they would have a trace of affection for Xi Zhicai.

stepped to go in, Xun Zhen stopped him, "Ming Gong, wait, tell Xi Zhong on my behalf first." ”

After waiting for a while, Xun Zhen came out to welcome Yun in, and to Yun's surprise, the noise in the courtyard still did not stop. Xun Zhen pointed out to Yun, a young man about thirty years old, with a somewhat sickly look on his face, it seemed that he was Xi Zhong.

Xi Zhicai didn't seem to be aware of Yun Walking, Yun was not annoyed, glanced at Xun Zhen with a smile, walked behind Xi Zhicai, and quietly watched him gamble. Zhang Fei also stood behind Yun, although he respected the scholars, but seeing that Xi Zhicai was so rude, his face was full of anger, Yun hurriedly put his hand on Zhang Fei's back, signaling him to calm down.

Soon, the money piled up in front of Xi Zhicai was lost, and the people who gambled with him had to leave, Xi Zhicai smiled and pointed to the clouds and said, "My money bag is here, what are you afraid of." ”

Yun's face remained unchanged, and he took out a piece of gold cake from his arms and handed it to Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai took the gold cake without any twist and continued to gamble with others. From the beginning of the day to the west of sunset, after the people who gambled with Xi Zhicai left one after another, Xi Zhicai stood up and saluted Yun respectfully, "And the state bearing, really a very person." ”

Yun smiled, "Since Zhicai has accepted my belongings, he is willing to help me." ”

Xi Zhicai also laughed, "Take people's money and eliminate disasters with others, Zhong is naturally willing to serve the Lord." ”

Yun took out some money and asked his wife to buy some wine and meat, of course, Yun and Xun Zhen played before Zhang Fei drank and talked until late at night.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Recruited a large number of middle-level talents in Yingchuan, and also got a drama talent, Yun was satisfied, because these scholars were all dragged with their families, and the number of people was nearly 1,000 combined, so Yun handed over the remaining guards to Zhao Yun to command, and asked Zhao Yun to lead this group of people back to Bingzhou. And Yun and Xi Zhicai, Xun Zhen, and Zhang Fei went to Jingzhou with more than a dozen guards. Speaking of recruiting so many Yingchuan scholars, Yun's purpose has been achieved, but Yun is lazy and takes advantage of this good season to go out and have a good time. Yun and Zhang Fei are both enemies, and Xi Zhicai and Xun Zhen also have some force, so be careful about their whereabouts, but they don't have to worry about their own safety.

Yuzhou is connected to Jingzhou, which is the junction of Yingchuan and Nanyang counties, so Yunzhi rode a horse for half a day and entered the boundary of Nanyang.

Nanyang is the place where Liu Xiu of the Han Dynasty raised his army, known as the emperor's hometown, and most of Liu Xiu's twenty-eight founding fathers are in Nanyang, so Nanyang has the most wealthy families, and it is also one of the strongest places in the family. Moreover, Nanyang has a dense water network, fertile soil, dense population, and Du Shi, who used to be Nanyang Taishou, invented the water drain here, so Nanyang's cast iron technology is also very superb. In general, Nanyang is the essence of Jingzhou, and at this time, Yuan Shu can occupy Jingzhou, and the inability to move Jingzhou Mu Liu is proof of this.

Yun and the two brothers of the Yuan family were not very harmonious when they were courting Dong, and Yun didn't dare to guarantee that Yuan Shu would be kind to himself when he was alone, so Yun naturally stopped a lot.

There are many wealthy families in Nanyang, which naturally means that the land annexation is serious, so although Nanyang is very wealthy, since the group entered Nanyang, the displaced people have also seen a lot.

Xun Zhen sighed, "Yuan Highway is in charge of Nanyang, and he doesn't want to benefit the people, but instead fights violently and peeps into Jingzhou." The two brothers, burdened with national hatred and family hatred, only thought about personal gain, the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, I am afraid that they will be defeated in the hands of the second Yuan. He was talking about the behavior of the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao begged Dong, and Dong Zhuo directly killed all the people in their family, even the young children. The fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family are the example of the princes of the world, and Dong Zhuo's ruthlessness has aroused the hatred of the people of the world, so many people defected to the two brothers of Yuan Shao and wanted to avenge their family. But Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu didn't want to please Dong, but one fell in love with Jizhou, the other fell in love with Jingzhou, and sat back to watch Dong Zhuo take the Son of Heaven and the court secretary back to Chang'an after making a mess of Luoyang. This disappointed people of insight in the world, and Yuan Shao also lost Xun Yu, Guo Jia and other talents at this time.

Xi Zhicai also despised Yuan Shu, thinking that even if he had gold and silver, thousands of soldiers and horses would not be able to succeed.

During the discussion, Xun Zhen suddenly remembered someone and said to Yun: "The lord wants to seek talent, and there is a great talent in Nanyang at this time, why don't the lord go to visit." ”

Yun was puzzled, "Who is Sadachi talking about?" ”

Xun Zhen smiled: "Doesn't the lord smell a dragon? ”
