Chapter 216: Huangfu Song's Wish

After the potter's words were finished, he listened to the whole hall, and all the voices seemed to be silent for a moment, faintly, only the sound of "squeaking" birds could be heard from time to time in the treetops in the courtyard outside.

As a sidekick? …… Isn't it the Grand Duke?

Tao Ying was a little unbalanced at the moment.

"Big brother, didn't you just say ...... Do you lack a governor of the county and the town of the army? Tao Ying pursed his mouth, it was obvious that Tao Lao Er was not very enthusiastic about the work of his follower.

The gap between them is a bit too big, right?

The potter raised his eyebrows, looked at Tao Ying suspiciously, and said strangely: "Yes, I am short of a town general who can supervise the army...... I'm just talking to you about this, what's wrong? ”

When Tao Ying heard this, he immediately gasped.

It turned out that it was just a chatter, not for me to be...... It's been a long day, and I'm too careful.

Big brother, you're so bad!

"No, there's nothing wrong with it." Tao Ying stammered back, his face slightly lost.

But after thinking about it, the job of the follower is not bad, it is easy, there is no pressure, but it just fits your personality.

Tao Ying's nature does not like to be competitive, and he is very open-minded, he doesn't care about the things he doesn't care about, and in a short period of time, Tao Ying put all these little things for him in the back of his mind.

"Let's go, go with my brother and visit someone." The potter stood up and waved at Tao Ying.

Watching the potter get up, Tao Ying was a little curious, but he didn't expect that on the first day of being a follower, he would set off immediately, and he didn't know where he was going to follow.

"Big brother, who are you going to take me to visit?"

The potter smiled slightly and said, "Teacher Huangfu."

……

……

After Huangfu Song arrived in Jinling City, life can be said to be quite comfortable.

Compared to the days when he used to fight horses, this life now is like heaven.

Huangfu Song's main conquest areas were in the northwest and Hebei theater, where the climate and environment were relatively harsh, the northwest was bitterly cold, the wind and sand in Hebei were heavier, and the temperature difference between the four seasons was large, the winter was very cold and the summer was very hot.

But after arriving in Jinling City, the situation was completely different.

In the south, in that era, although the economic construction and population scale were not as large as those in the north, in terms of health environment, it was much stronger than the north.

The land of splendor, the mountains and rivers are pleasant, and the temperature difference between the four seasons is not very high, even in the coldest winter, the temperature is only much different from the late autumn in the north, according to the words of the potters - the air quality is absolutely nothing to say.

Huangfu Song is here, and he is very comfortable.

Life will grow old, what is more perfect than living in the land of beautiful mountains and rivers?

But even with such an environment, Huangfu Song's physical condition is not very good.

It can even be said that it is not as good as one day at a time.

He was in Luoyang City, and he fell ill during the period of time when he was imprisoned by Dong Zhuo.

The harsh environment of the prison and the long-suppressed mood completely crushed Huangfu Song's body, so that he has not recovered to this day.

Perhaps, there is a good chance that he will not recover at all.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Huangfu Song, who was sitting in the courtyard, coughed up a mouthful of bloody phlegm.

Huangfu Song looked at the dazzling red in the handkerchief, and couldn't help but let out a long breath.

The old man smiled helplessly, folded his handkerchief gently, staggered to the courtyard, and threw the handkerchief into the bucket in the courtyard.

As the first military god of the Han Dynasty, his whole life is like a fierce tiger, roaring in the mountains and forests, and intimidating all beasts.

Even at this moment, knowing that he was already a dying wood and his time was running out, Huangfu Song was still unwilling to let others know his embarrassing state.

He is not willing to let others have pity, let alone sympathy.

His innate arrogance did not allow him to do so before checkmate.

Who lives a lifetime, and who dies?

Too many died at his hands.

He's seen too many deaths.

Death is not a big deal at all for Huangfu Song.

However, he would never allow himself to lie on the bed and die in a nest.

As a god of war, he must choose the most decent way to die for himself!

A legend that will be passed on to future generations.

Huangfu Song looked up at the blue clear sky, and for some reason, a fantasy popped up in his mind.

If he could crusade against Dong Zhuo, the great evil who caused cholera in the Han family at the last moment of his life, whether it was public or private, he might not have any regrets.

But this wish, I'm afraid it's unpaid in this life.

"Master, Prince Taiping is here to visit."

The subordinate walked into the courtyard of the small mansion and reported to the emperor, interrupting the old man's thoughts.

Huangfu Song was not surprised when he heard this, although the potter's behavior on weekdays was a lot of misconduct, but on the whole, he was still very good to his nominal master, and there was no shortage of daily necessities and food and clothing on weekdays, and he also came to ask for advice every once in a while.

This kid still respects his teacher very much.

Recently, the vigorous development of Jinling City has all fallen in the eyes of Huangfu Song, and Huangfu Song is really amazed by the talent of the potter.

In his later years, he got this good apprentice, and Huangfu Song was also deeply satisfied.

"Let him come."

When he was young, the subordinate led the pottery merchant and Tao Ying to the front of Huangfu Song, and the two boys greeted Huangfu Song respectively.

Huangfu Song stroked his beard with satisfaction, and instructed his subordinates to prepare a seat for the two of them in the courtyard, and served some fruits.

After looking up and down at the pottery merchant for a while, Huangfu Song turned his head to look at Tao Ying again, and said with satisfaction: "Brothers work together, its profits are cut off, Gongzu's move to let Ying'er come to Jinling City is right, such as today's chaos, Ying'er, you follow your eldest brother, you must study hard, watch well, practice well, protect the family and the country in the future, punish the traitors and eliminate the thieves, but it depends on you young people, the old man is old, and he is really powerless." ”

Hearing this, the potter smiled and said, "What did the teacher say?" You are still very young, strong and healthy, and you will have to gallop in this world for another thirty years. ”

When Huangfu Song heard this, he grinned and said, "Nonsense! The old man is this age, and after another thirty years of galloping, he won't be an old goblin? You also need to shoot the horse reliably, don't be open-mouthed and talk nonsense every day. ”

Hearing this, the potter smiled and said, "Disciple, doesn't I hope that the teacher will be well." ”

Huangfu Song shook his head heavily, sighed and said: "You are too little to worry about day by day, take the name of your Taiping prince as worthy of his name, and the old man will naturally get better......

Speaking of this, Huangfu Song suddenly changed his words and said lightly: "You brought your brother here today, presumably not just to greet the old man, right?" …… Is there something to ask for? ”

The pottery merchant was stunned for a moment, looked at Huangfu Song in disbelief, and said in surprise: "The teacher is so talented, the disciple sincerely expresses his admiration!" Your old tricks are really bright. ”

Huangfu Song sighed helplessly when he heard this: "Although the old man also knows that you are praising the old man, why can't you always hear joy and fun?" It is really rare to praise people to be able to praise you to such an extent, and people listen to people who hate you. ”

After that, I saw the old man holding up the skew in front of him, and said while dripping with water: "Say, what's the matter with looking for the old man?" ”

"Teacher, what do you think of my brother?"

Huangfu Song said absentmindedly: "Pure nature, sincerity, and a good boy." ”

"And how do you think he compares to me?"

"You are cunning by nature, good at deceit, not what the old man likes, your younger brother is much better than you, you don't take him bad in the future."

The potter smiled when he heard this: "Since my brother is better than me, then you will also accept him as a disciple?" ”

"Cough, cough, cough!" Huangfu Song didn't drink a sip of water, and almost choked to death.

Little calf, waiting for me here?!

Huangfu Song turned his head, looked at Tao Ying fixedly for a long time, and secretly said in his heart that this kid was here today for this.

Turning his head and looking at the potter's smiling face again, Huangfu Song shook his head helplessly.

"The old man taught you one, but he was already tired, and he wasted half his life's hard work, how could he accept another apprentice? This matter can't help you, besides, the old man's good use of the art of war battle array, during this period of time, has basically been passed on to you, if you want your brother to learn skills, you might as well teach it yourself, why do you have to drag the old man? ”

Tao Ying didn't seem to think that the pottery merchant brought him to Huangfu Song today to apprentice, and the young man had no preparation at all, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Big, big brother, I don't think this matter is necessary...... The emperor is entangled in all kinds of things, and I'm afraid I don't have much time to discipline my ......"

"It's okay, Teacher Huangfu has time, and he has to be idle all day."

Huangfu Song's face suddenly turned red.

That's right, but can you please not be so direct, stinky boy?

The pottery merchant gave Huangfu Song a deep sigh and begged: "Teacher, you also understand that the matter of apprenticeship, the teaching ability is small, but who my brother worships as the teacher is the big thing, I implore the teacher to fulfill me again." ”

Huangfu Song couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

After bowing his head and pondering for a long time, the old man finally understood that the taste had come.

This kid turned out to have such a thought.

Tao Ying has just come out, and he has not managed himself properly over the years, but he just has the title of a young son of Xuzhou Thorn History.

But this kind of title, not to mention looking at the world, even looking at Yangzhou or Xuzhou, is not a special title that can be put on the table to say things.

At best, it can only prove that he is the son of a feudal official, a second-generation official.

This is quite limited for his political future and future position in Xuzhou.

On the other hand, the pottery merchants, since they led the army to defeat Dong Zhuo, have won various political titles such as Yuedan Commentary, Xu Jingju Xiaolian, Danyang Taishou, Taiping Gongzi, and Huangfu Song's disciples.

It can be said that the potter's current achievements depend on his personal knowledge, ability and strategy, but on the other hand, these political halos on him have also brought him an indelible influence.

There is no love without a reason, and there is no hate without a reason.

The more you get, naturally, is also because you have something that makes others worth contriving.

In this world of scholars, it is impossible to achieve anything big without a suitable identity and background.
