Chapter 33 The gentleman said he would be a great prophet
Xun Shuang gave Xun Yu a positive answer, and Xun Yu felt that there was something strange in it.
Now that Youzhou has been hit by heavy snow, even Jizhou is full of snow, and this is just the height of winter, as long as people with a little common sense will know how difficult it is to have a snow-free sunny day at this time, right?
And besides, this year, it seems that the wind and snow in the north have a tendency to catastrophe, and he has already heard the news that a village in Youzhou has been flooded.
In this situation, why did Chen Chen dare to bet with himself, he was not unable to agree to this bet, he should be able to win, right?
Xun Yu thought about it, the two of them have always bet that this time they can't escape, right?
What's more, it's actually like Xun Shuang wants to arrange for him to go to Taihang Mountain Academy and go to the leading teacher of the winter camp first.
He himself also has some half-pushed and half-agreed meanings, although Xun Shuang's reasons are all right, Xun Yu is indeed more inclined to go to Cao Cao's office at this time, so as to send charcoal in the snow and become a pillar of the faction.
But really think about it carefully, Chen Chen has been going back and forth with his letters, and in Xun Shuang's letters, he explained the importance they attach to himself, in fact, Xun Yu didn't expect that he hadn't shown his strength in front of Liu Bei and them, how could he trust himself so much, and he also thought about what important things he wanted to arrange for himself in advance.
Theoretically speaking, as far as Chen Chen mentioned in his letter to Xun Shuang, it is basically determined that Xun Yu will become the pillar of Liu Bei's group, and he will directly respond to the professional book in the future, that is, the future prime minister.
Wait, I haven't said whether Liu Bei wants to be the emperor or not.
"Knock knock."
The sound of knocking sounded, Xun Yu and Xun Shuang glanced at each other, and the letter on the desk was put away, and Xun Yu answered.
"Who and what?"
"Teaching, General Cao has an urgent letter delivered, saying that it must be delivered to you as soon as possible."
Listening to the voice should be a student in the academy, and it is normal to know that Xun Yu and Xun Shuang are here.
"Good work."
Xun Yu opened the door, took the envelope handed by the student, there was indeed no problem, and said hello to the student, and he turned around and went back to the study with the letter.
"Cao Mengde's letter? Then you can still take a look and see what he said and what conditions he proposed? ”
Xun Shuang turned over again and laughed at Xun Yu easily.
"Uncle said this as if he were talking about a dowry."
Xun Yu smiled helplessly, his uncle would only become a little unserious in front of people close to him, as if he was so natural, but if he wasn't so interesting, he wouldn't be able to accommodate so many weirdos who had novel ideas and real talents, but acted like a profligate and unruly person, and only so interesting, he could also mingle with Chen Xian's young and fun-loving professors.
Xun Shuang pouted, the elderly love to sell cuteness, and people are indeed treasures the older they are.
He felt that Xun Yu's point of view was wrong.
"The future of this choice is the same as talking about the dowry itself! How is it different? It's also about looking at the right person, and it's also about making a good choice seriously, for the sake of the future life, how to get along well, isn't it important? Even if you pick the wrong one, you can vote for another master, but it's the same as remarrying after getting married, isn't it still a waste of your good years? ”
What Xun Shuang said was really reasonable, and Xun Yu found that he couldn't find any reason to refute it.
"Look at you, look at Chen Xiaozi again."
Xun Shuang felt that his nephew had been entangled all the time, which was really embarrassing, even if he had great talent, but if he hesitated so much, he would not have a share of the soup when the time came, and everyone was old, he didn't want Xun Yu to stay in the academy for the rest of his life like himself and be a tree planter.
He Xun Shuang really didn't like the messy things in the court officialdom, and he couldn't display his talents, coupled with the dispute between the party and the government back then, he came back to take care of the academy and plant trees to educate people.
But now Xun Yu obviously has the ability and opportunity to change those bad habits and make the world a better place, why is he here all day long, I really don't know if this kid is the seed of the Xun family.
Well?
It seems that the Xun family is indeed more comfortable by themselves, so maybe they are not from the Xun family?
Xun Shuang's thoughts flew away, since he didn't care much about the affairs in the academy, he was a lot more idle, although his body was still poor, but his psychological state was improving.
"Chen Xiaozi ran to Luoyang with his father back then, but he didn't run in vain, now he is the same age as you, younger than you, and on Liu Xuande's side, even being favored can't be used to describe him."
"What's more, when he was in the academy, he looked idle, not like a person with great ambitions, I told you at that time, the more Chen Xiaozi has extraordinary potential, outstanding strength, and is not stubborn, he will be the first among you to change the times in the future. If you look at Liu Xuande's atmosphere, policy guidelines, and behavioral measures, are they all praised? As far as I know, it seems to be all because of Chen Xiaozi. He maximized Liu Xuande's characteristics and kept the huge system in a good state. ”
Xun Shuang looked at Xun Yu, and his two pale eyebrows trembled.
"Back then, Cao Mengde invited you, you didn't go, I felt that you had to learn more, now Cao Mengde invited you, you want to go, in fact, learning is not only learning, but also asking, asking is not who you ask, but when you encounter something in practice, you have a question, so that you can apply what you have learned."
"You, you, I won't say more, look at what Cao Mengde wrote in your letter, and make a decision quickly."
Xun Shuang shook his head, turned over and turned his back to Xun Yu, asking him to think about it himself.
Xun Yu opened Cao Cao's urgent letter, which didn't say much, and only told Xun Yu a message.
Now that the young emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Wei is there with him, as long as he negotiates with Xuzhou, he will be able to take part of the territory of Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Yangzhou in Xuzhou and Xuzhou, and then Cao Cao will also become a great prince at the same level as Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, and Lu Bu.
The letter briefly mentioned their future policy guidelines, and basically talked to Xun Yu about some confidential arrangements.
Cao Cao, this guy, really has something.
Before Xun Yu gave a clear answer, he actually gave his own arrangement in such a heartfelt manner, this is an attitude.
Brother, I believe in you, come on, if you don't come, you are also my brother, I am not afraid.
Lao Cao is giving people a psychological burden, a hidden psychological burden.
However, he did accurately grasp Xun Yu's point.
One is the Han Emperor, and the other is trust.
But this is Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty, although he is indeed the orthodox inheritance, but he has also been deposed, and he is now more of a fleeing nature, rather than Cao Cao to usher in, which makes people feel that the price is cheap, this emperor does not have that kind of aura.
It's over, Cao Cao's letter came, and Xun Yu began to struggle again.
"Bang bang bang!"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the study, and Xun Yu was a little surprised.
In Yingchuan Academy, someone would knock on the door like this in Xun Shuang's study? It's kind of weird.
Xun Yu opened the door, but saw a figure wearing a cloak, which felt somewhat familiar, but he didn't know where this familiar feeling came from, what kind of person was this?
"Mr. Wenruo, my husband asked me to come to you."
This man pulled down his hood, and Xun Yu saw clearly who this guy was and who sent it.
A familiar face appeared in front of him, Xun Yu and Chen Chen were good friends, and naturally knew Yan Ren, but he didn't expect Yan Ren to be Chen Chen's escort commander, and it was said that he was already a middle and high-level general on Liu Bei's side, although he didn't hear much about him or anything else, and he didn't know which army he was in, but Yan Ren's identity sneaked into Yuan Shu's territory without the protection of the army, which was a bit outrageous.
Especially Liu Bei has just killed Yuan Shao not long ago, it's good that the two sides don't meet each other, if Yuan Shu knows that Liu Bei's people are on his own territory, then Yuan Shu doesn't recommend raising the butcher's knife to avenge his brother.
Although they are half-siblings, they compete with each other on weekdays, and they have never liked to call him big brother, but after all, they are brothers who are flesh and blood.
In his previous life, after Yuan Shu was defeated as the emperor, the first thing he thought of was to run to Yuan Shao's side with the jade seal and give the jade seal to Yuan Shao.
Therefore, Yan Ren sneaked into Yuan Shu's territory in such a disguise and low-key, just to see him as Chen Chen said, which made Xun Yu a little surprised.
"Come on in."
Xun Yu turned sideways and let Yan Ren into the house, looked out of the door by himself, and didn't find anyone in the distance watching and probing, so he closed the door.
Good guy, Chen Chen actually arranged for someone to come over directly.
Yan Ren is also very polite, before he traveled this time, all the gentlemen came to him to explain the matter, and they all wrote letters to ask him to help bring them to Xun Yu, and Liu Bei also instructed Yan Ren to protect himself and Xun Yu.
After Chen Chen explained to him how to tell Xun Yu, he also said that Xun Yu must be brought back.
How could Chen Chen not know that Liu Wei had gone to Cao Cao's side. A little guess, he will think that Chen Chen deliberately let him pass, since this is the case, then he will not guess that maybe this will become a point for Cao Cao to attract Xun Yu.
But no matter how serious your old Cao is, no matter how honest and honest you are, you don't dare to enter Yuan Shu's territory to find Xun Yu in person at this time, right?
changed to others, and I was not familiar with Xun Yu.
Then I will directly send a familiar person over, you use letters, I use people, who is more serious about this? Needless to say.
"Mr. Xun, Mr. Xun, I have taken the liberty to visit today, and I have offended a lot."
When dealing with these literate people, you must do a good job of etiquette.
Yan Ren also really performed a standard scholarly ceremony.
"Chen Xiaozi didn't be so polite when he saw me, you are his confidant, but you know much more politeness than him."
There was a guest visiting, Xun Shuang naturally couldn't still lie on the bed, turned over and sat up, smiled, and eased the atmosphere.
"Is something wrong?"
Xun Yu was a little worried, and he didn't know if something happened to Chen Chen.
"That's not it, oh, here are the private messages that the gentlemen asked me to bring to Mr. Wenruo, and they have never been opened."
Yan Ren first took out a stack of envelopes from his arms and handed them to Xun Yu with both hands.
"You've got a lot of friends."
Xun Shuang interjected, this old man actually wants Xun Yu to go to Liu Bei more, after all, the general trend of the world is beginning to appear, and those who know the times are Junjie.
Xun Yu nodded and put the envelopes away.
"Also, my husband asked me to come over and tell a story to Mr. Wen Ruo in person, in order to reflect the gambling contract he proposed."
"Sir said he was going to be a real great prophet, and the story was a thousand years later."
Yan Ren cleared his throat and recalled the story Chen Chen told him, this story is actually very easy to remember because of its dramatization, but the names in it are not very easy to remember, they are all a little weird, and he still spent a lot of effort to memorize them.
"Brother Yan, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"In the east of the Han Dynasty thousands of years later, there are large island groups on the sea, among them, there is the largest island, about half an island the size of Xuzhou, and there is a group of people on it."
Yan Ren thought about it and remembered the vivid analogy that Chen Chen had made to himself at the beginning.
"Mr. Wen Ruo can imagine that this island is my Dahan County, there are more than a dozen county towns in the county, countless small towns, and there are several powerful people in the county, their goal is to govern their own county, of course, there are also city lords who want to dominate the entire county."
"Among them, there is a family of the lord of the county, called the Takeda family, well, the surname is Takeda, they are a powerful family with the strength of the previous generation to unify the county, and there are many small families attached to their big family, but for some reasons missed the opportunity to unify the county, and the heir of the Takeda family has a problem again, and the inheritance is very hasty. And in the west of this county, there is another family with a powerful person, just like the original Great Qin, who suddenly rose and called the Oda family. ”
Yan Ren's storytelling ability is still good, and the storytelling is quite vivid, and Xun Yu fell into his story all of a sudden.
"The people in this county still like farming? The name is Obida. ”
Xun Shuang interjected, he was very curious, Chen Xiaozi can always create this kind of novel story, it sounds very funny, is it possible to dominate the world in a county? Maybe it's because of the island?
"Well, and at that time, the Takeda family was in decline, and the Oda family was about to push the Takeda family to a dead end, and under the Takeda family, there was a small family called the Sanada family, and the general under the Takeda family was the head of the Sanada family, Sanada Yasubo Mamoru, also known as Sanada Masayuki, and there was also a name called Muto Ki Guard."
"They really love Tian, and there are so many names, it's weird."
Xun Shuang also found a place to sit over and listen to the story together.
"And then?"
Xun Yu doesn't know why, what is this story about?
