Xun You has always been very calm.

When people treated him as air, he endured loneliness.

When people began to pursue him, he was able to stabilize his mind.

He hasn't changed at all, what he was like in the past, how he is still the same, quite a little bit of a feeling of not liking things and not being sad about himself.

Many people touched the soft top of him, and they were annoyed, thinking that the old guy was shameless, but they couldn't do anything about him, and they didn't dare to offend the family members of one of the five major laws.

So he turned to other Xun clan people to get in touch, thinking about joining the Xun clan and becoming a protégé of the Xun clan, so that he could be taken care of in the future.

The Xun clan is more open than Xun You himself, so much so that Xun You has to specifically warn the Xun clan to be cautious.

However, the effect is not very great.

has been suppressed for too long, and the self-cultivation and self-cultivation efforts have not reached home, and they have suddenly recovered, and they want to restore their former glory too much.

Seeing this, Xun You felt a little worried, and remembered that His Majesty the Emperor would never allow some people who got carried away to continue to get carried away.

Sure enough, the emperor's summoning order arrived, Xun You straightened his clothes and went to meet His Majesty the emperor in person.

This time, Guo Peng did not meet Xun You in the study, but chose to meet Xun You in the Imperial Garden.

"The weather is hot, there are many trees in the imperial garden, and there are many pavilions, so I thought it would be more comfortable to meet Gongda here."

Guo Peng met Xun You in the pavilion of the Imperial Garden, this pavilion is his favorite, ventilated on all sides, sitting here in summer, there is also a cool breeze that can blow over, slightly relieving the feeling of dryness.

He made a pot of tea here, and when Xun You came here, he poured a cup of tea for Xun You, asked Xun You to sit down, and faced him.

"How many years has Gongda been working for me?"

"Back to Your Majesty, nine years and three months, and nine months to go, it will be ten years."

"You remember it very well."

"Everything related to His Majesty, the ministers have it in their hearts."

"Is Xun Yu's death the same?"

Guo Peng's face was indifferent, and he said something that made Xun You's hand on the other side shake and almost didn't stabilize.

However, Xun You is worthy of being a master of anti-pressure and a master of stability, so he stabilized his mind at a very fast speed and put the tea into his mouth.

"Uncle can't see the current situation clearly, and if he goes against the current, he will inevitably encounter disasters, which is inevitable."

Xun You said slowly: "In order to protect the Xun family, the minister had to kill his uncle, this is an unforgivable sin of the minister, and it is also a stain that cannot be washed away in the minister's life. ”

With that, Xun You put down the teacup, stood up from the stone bench, and knelt beside Guo Peng to plead guilty.

"Get up, kneel what? Did I say I was going to ask you about your sins? ”

Guo Peng stretched out a hand to help Xun Yu up, smiled, and said, "You said it, Xun Yu died of the times, died of the irreversible times, not you."

Gongda, when most of the people in a group want to move forward, only he wants to stay where he is, then he is destined to be abandoned by the people in the group.

Of course, he didn't have to die, he wanted to stay where he was, so he stayed, and it was nothing, but his fault was that he not only wanted to stay by himself, but also dragged a group of people to stay together.

You don't want to go, but other people want to go, if you don't go yourself, and don't let others go, then you have to die, so he died not only by the emperor's order, but also by everyone who wants to move forward. ”

Guo Peng smiled and said, "We are all murderers, you are not alone. ”

Xun Yu stood in place, his eyes flickering, and his face expressionless.

"What Your Majesty said is very true, and the minister thinks so."

"The general trend of the world will not change because of one person, the reason why I can change the general trend of the world is because I see through the needs of everyone, what I do is to comply with the real needs of everyone, I meet them, so there is today's Wei State.

Wen Ruo couldn't understand it, he thought that everyone was the same as him, he still missed the past in his heart, and wanted to go back to the past, but at that time, everyone wanted to move forward, everyone wanted him to die, Gongda, you are just one of them. ”

Guo Peng stretched out his finger and pointed at Xun You, and then pointed at himself: "Sit down, the tea is cold." ”

"Yes."

Xun You sat down solemnly, picked up the teacup, and drank all the tea in the teacup.

Guo Peng then stretched out his hand and filled Xun You with a cup of tea, and Xun You took it with both cups in his hands.

"Gongda, I have always admired you, and since the day you succeeded Wen Ruo to follow me, I have admired you very much, because I have noticed that you are different from Wen Ruo.

You won't insist on what you think in your heart, you will take care of the overall situation, for the sake of the big picture, even if what you think in your heart is not so, you will be obedient, you will not fight, so I appreciate you. ”

Xun You held the teacup in both hands and put it down gently.

"Because from the very beginning, the minister knew that His Majesty's will was the overall situation, His Majesty's idea was the general trend, and no matter what the minister did, it was impossible to change the overall situation and reverse the general trend.

So compared to these, the minister hopes to protect the family, prosper the family, and not let the rest of the clan end up like his uncle's family, which is the minister's greatest wish. ”

Although the Xun family had nothing to do, the Xun Yu family was all martyred.

Xun You felt this matter, so he never went against Guo Peng, and tried to protect the whole clan and not let the whole clan follow in Xun Yu's footsteps.

Guo Peng is a strongman and executioner who can kill people, dare to kill people, and are willing to kill people.

He is tough, capable, and unstoppable, except for "fools" like Xun Yu and Zang Hong, who else dares to disobey him?

"Do you hate me?"

Guo Peng asked softly.

Xun You was silent for a while.

"I don't dare."

Guo Peng smiled.

"I like that answer, Gongda, I really like your answer."

After being quiet for a while, Guo Peng said again: "Gongda, I appreciate you more and more, after becoming the emperor, I haven't heard such a truth for a long time, and I guess only you dare to say such words, even Fengxiao doesn't dare to say this in front of me, I always feel that I haven't heard such a direct answer for a while." ”

"Your Majesty has a question, and the minister will answer, and the minister will not deceive Your Majesty after all."

"Okay."

Guo Peng nodded, then called Su Yuan, took a piece of paper from Su Yuan's hand, and handed it to Xun You.

"Gongda, look at it."

"Yes."

Xun You took the piece of paper with both hands and saw that a paragraph was written on it.

[Linggong is unreasonable, so that all the doctors are in the court, and then they are on the stage and bullet it, and they tend to open the pill, which is just fun.

Zhao Dun has come out of the court, standing in the court with all the doctors, and some people are lotus, and those who come out of the boudoir.

Zhao Dun said: "Why is he, the husband is out of the boudoir? ”

When he couldn't call it, he said: "Doctor Zi, if you want to see it, you will see it." ”

Zhao Dun looked at it, and he was a dead person. 】

This is a very ordinary article in the Spring and Autumn Classic, the beginning of the article, there is no big deal, but Xun You looked at it, his pupils shrank, and his body shook unnaturally.

Guo Peng noticed it and continued to drink tea indifferently.

After a while, Xun You put down the piece of paper in his hand.

"The minister is stupid, I don't know what His Majesty's intention is to let the minister watch this chapter, and the minister asks Your Majesty to solve your doubts."

Guo Peng nodded.

"Punctuation, under my years of reading, the punctuation used in the broken sentences created by me has its own meaning, each has its own usage, it is very simple, you can learn it as soon as you learn, you can use it as soon as you use it, and you can use it to mark the scriptures with punctuation, you don't need to learn to read sentences, you can also read, you don't need famous teachers to pass it on by word of mouth, you can record it with paper and pen, and you can also learn."

Xun You felt that his throat was dry.

I obviously drank the tea just now, but now I feel that my throat is very dry.

"What does Your Majesty want your ministers to do?"

"Mark punctuation on the scriptures and make it public to the world, so that all students can understand punctuation, and rely on punctuation instead of word of mouth from the master to learn and read, so that punctuation is popular in the world, and the family law is no longer a family law, but a real national law, the law of the saints."

Guo Peng took another sip of tea, and then looked at Xun You like this.

Xun Yu was silent for a long time.

Guo Peng sighed.

"Gongda, I really value you, so I decided to marry my eldest daughter to your son, and allow you to inherit the title of Xun clan and retire with the country, without decreasing from generation to generation, you can promise me."
