The door of the study in the side courtyard was closed, and four or five slaves stood outside the house, but they did not dare to go in and disturb them.

Hua Xiong walked to the door, in the surprised eyes of everyone, directly pushed open the door, walked into the study, and quickly closed the door, in the study, Liu Mastiff sat in front of the case, his head was lowered, his eyes were full of confusion, on the case, there were piles of papers, these were the notes that Yuan Shu wrote for him after he consulted Yuan Shu, the room was extremely dark, the windows were closed, but the case was lit with candles.

Hearing someone walk in, Liu Mastiff didn't even raise his head and said, "I don't want to eat yet." ”

"Then I'll eat it later....", Hua Xiong said, and sat opposite Liu Mastiff, Liu Mastiff raised his head and saw the person coming, but he still stretched out his hand to meet him, Hua Xiong saw Liu Mastiff's face, red and swollen eyes, and pale face, so that Hua Xiong couldn't help frowning, and after thinking for a moment, he laughed, shook his head, and said, "Do you know where I was at the captain's funeral?" ”

Liu Mastiff didn't reply, lowered his head, and didn't speak.

"I'm drinking in the school captain's mansion, gulping down, farewell to the school captain, congratulations to the school captain!!"

Liu Mastiff, who was originally a little sluggish, raised his head angrily when he heard this, and looked at Hua Xiong in front of him, with both anger and puzzlement in his eyes.

Hua Xiong ignored him, recalled seriously, and said: "More than ten years ago, I was just a soldier who had just entered the border army, in Liangzhou, but also in the border army, I met Captain Yuan, at that time, he was still a commander of the Southern Army, at that time, the Qiang people outside the Saiwai could not survive, and they frantically poured into Liangzhou, plundering the Quartet, whether it was the Liangzhou people, the Huns, or the Seneiqiang people, they all robbed!! ”

"In order to resist them, the Southern Army divided into three battalions and united with our border army brigade to resist together...."

"You know, I like to talk about my experiences, but I never talk about war... Why? Because when it comes to the war, there will be no joy, only countless sorrows, the captain led us, won nearly 300 battles, large and small, we crawled out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood, but there were more people lying there, the most tragic one, our 800-strong barracks, in the end only a dozen people remained..."

Hua Xiong smiled when he talked about this, and continued: "At that time, I was very scared in my heart, and I wanted to escape... But the captain stopped me, and he told me that people are inherently dead, or heavier than Taihang Mountain, or lighter than bird feathers... I don't understand this kind of big truth, and he told me that you will die sooner or later, depending on how he died, and what he did before he died... He said... To live is to be able to boast triumphantly about your experience... Tell yourself about this glorious life!! ”

"Or, die on the battlefield and let others brag about your glorious life!"

Hua Xiong smiled and said: "You know why I always tell my own experience, hahaha, you don't have to worry, when you die, there will be hundreds of millions of people to praise your reputation in this life.... Having said that, the captain is not afraid of death, he is only afraid of death, you see, now, when talking about the captain, who dares to despise, who will not brag about his life, if others don't say it, I will!! ”

"The captain has been suffering for too long, and now that he can get rid of this pain, and can still meet our old brothers, maybe he is now bragging about his exploits to his master!"

Hua Xiong patted Liu Mastiff on the shoulder and said, "If the captain bragged about his experience, he would not be complacent because of his military exploits, nor would he be proud of the revitalization of the ram, he would still be proud of the fact that he taught a virtuous and benevolent prince... However, if he is boasting, looking down, only to see his proud protégé locked himself in the house and washing his face with tears, how do you think he should explain to the martyrs? ? ”

Liu Mastiff wiped his tears, stood up, bowed to Huaxiong, and said, "Be taught!" ”

"It doesn't have to be this way... Let's go, follow me to the sun! Hua Xiong didn't talk nonsense, stood up, pulled Liu Mastiff and walked out, everyone and Zhuge Liang were talking in the side yard, they saw Hua Xiong leading Liu Mastiff out, everyone hurriedly visited, Liu Mastiff was also reluctant to squeeze out a smile, one by one, Hua Xiong laughed, looked at Zhuge Liang on the side, and said: "Kong Ming, study hard... There's still so much more to learn! ”

He didn't wait for Zhuge Liang to reply, laughed and walked out of the Yuan Mansion.

"Your Highness..."

"Uncle, I made everyone worry before, and I hope to forgive your sins..."

"It's okay, it's okay, what does Your Highness want to eat?"

"Okay."

Hua Xiong walked out of the Yuan Mansion with great interest, he was quite happy in his heart, thinking about the new Henan Yin and many county orders, and walked towards the mansion again, halfway through, he suddenly stopped, turned around, looked at the Yuan Mansion in the distance, grinned, and said: "It's just a trivial matter, no need to say thank you!" ”

At the same time, Guan Yu has also rushed to the palace, he has not been here, therefore, just came to the gate of the palace, was stopped by the guards at the door, Guan Yu said his identity, and said that he wanted to meet the Son of Heaven, said that unless he has the identity of the servant, or is ranked as the third duke, it is not so simple to meet the Son of Heaven, that is, the captain of the Northern Military Academy, it is not easy to see the Son of Heaven.

However, Emperor Xiaokang set a precedent, he issued an edict, the Han world, anyone can come to see themselves, whether there are grievances, or there are important things, you can tell yourself, at the same time, but also require the guards not to come to see the people who come to see the people outside the door for no reason, and for the people who want to come to see the Son of Heaven, all the post stations should be protected, all the way to the Yang, of course, the people do not dare to bother the Son of Heaven.

However, there were many low-level officials, and even the ministers of the court, who came to visit the Son of Heaven.

Some even just want to see the Son of Heaven, and Emperor Xiaokang does not embarrass them.

When today's son, will also be Xiaokang Emperor's policy inherited, after the arrival of Guan Yu, soon, Hanmen reported to the Houde Palace, heard that Guan Yu arrived, the Son of Heaven is still very puzzled, Guan Yu this person, in the book of heaven is a great general, this is a real brave general, can behead the enemy general's warrior, the book of heaven for this person's bravery, that is a big book, can be in the enemy army to kill the enemy generals directly, there are really few in the book of heaven.

He had high hopes for Guan Yubao, so he did not send Guan Yu to replace the Southern Army, but stayed in the Northern Army and served as Huang Zhong's deputy, which was naturally his plan to take charge of the Northern Army in the future.

Guan Yu didn't wait too long, then the yellow door came out, took Guan Yu into the palace, along the way, Guan Yu was cold-faced, Huangmen thought that this person was looking down on his eunuch background, so he was also dissatisfied with Guan Yu, took him to the door of the Houde Palace, and left, Guan Yu walked into the Houde Hall alone, the Son of Heaven was looking at the books, Guan Yu walked in, did not dare to disturb the Son of Heaven, stood aside, fortunately, the Son of Heaven turned his head, saw Guan Yu who came in, and put the book down.

"Changsheng is here, come, sit!"

The Son of Heaven waved his hand, and was extremely cordial to Guan Yu, which made Guan Yu a little uncomfortable, walked in front of the Son of Heaven, sat down, the Son of Heaven looked him up and down, nodded, and said: "In front of Dong Gong, he often speaks, saying that there is a warrior under his command, shaped like a tower, who can take the head of the enemy with ten thousand armies, and today it seems that he is indeed brave!" In the face of the praise of the Son of Heaven, Guan Yu blushed and even said his reputation.

The Son of Heaven asked about the military again, and after a while, he stopped and looked at Guan Yu quietly.

Guan Yu understood that the Son of Heaven was waiting for himself to say the reason for coming, he thought for a moment, and then said slowly: "Your Majesty, now the official learning is everywhere, and the scientific achievements are flourishing, but there is no place to cultivate generals...", Guan Yu told the Son of Heaven about the content of Yuan Shu's lecture one by one, the Son of Heaven frowned, listened carefully, and waited until Guan Yu finished speaking, the Son of Heaven was still a little hesitant, he said: "The art of war, the most important thing, teach everyone.."

At the same time, he also looked at Guan Yu a little bit in his heart, he originally thought that this person was just a brave man, in other aspects, it is estimated that it is ordinary, but he didn't expect that he could still say this, although he was surprised in his heart, but he still hesitated, speaking of which, the Han Dynasty's control of the art of war books is very strict, and he was afraid that it would be spread to the world and obtained by someone with a heart, which would lead to chaos, and the Son of Heaven was also hesitant about it.

Guan Yu was also shocked in his heart, because Yuan Shu had told him about the Son of Heaven's answer, and taught him how to persuade him if the Son of Heaven spoke like this.

Guan Yu recalled what Yuan Shu taught, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, when he was with Jianning before, Emperor Xiaokang set up the Southern Army, with the famous general Duan Gong as the teaching, and taught the rangers to the art of war, within three years, the Southern Army rose again, with great achievements and unstoppable bravery, at that time, Zhang Gong of the Northern Army also made a bet with Duan Gong, and as a result, the Southern Army defeated the Northern Army, and Zhang Gong also began to pay attention to teaching the art of war among the low-level generals..."

"Emperor Xiaokang's move made the Han army strong, and successively defeated Xianbei, Sanhan and other foreign enemies...."

As soon as Guan Yu said this, the Son of Heaven raised his hand and asked him to stop, the Son of Heaven frowned, and said: "Okay, just do what you say, set up a military school, when Emperor Xiaokang was taught by the northern and southern monarchs, then we will simply be bolder, recruit students, and when they are finished, they will be divided into the northern and southern armies, and even the surrounding borders, and even the Jinwu, and the local thieves Cao and the like..."

The Son of Heaven said seriously, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he raised Guan Yu's performance by a few levels.

Guan Yu could only sigh in his heart that Yuan Shu's understanding of the Son of Heaven was so thorough, and nodded again, agreeing with the words of the Son of Heaven.

The two talked for nearly an hour, Guan Yu then said goodbye and left, when the Son of Heaven sent him away, he was a little reluctant, the Son of Heaven grabbed Guan Yu cordially and said, "Changsheng, this champion Hou, I really want to seal it out, but for so many years, no one has been able to make enough meritorious contributions, I now feel that Changsheng, you may be able to be different from others, this champion Hou's position, I will keep it for you!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!!"

Sending Guan Yu away, the Son of Heaven sat in the Hall of Houde, thinking about it alone, but suddenly felt that something was wrong, Guan Yu was so old, how did he know about Duan Cheng and Zhang Huan, and he knew so much about it? Also, he deliberately mentioned the matter of Jianning, which made me make a decision in such a hurry??? Why did he know so much about me???

Wrong! This is not Guan Yu's idea!!
