Chapter 563: Look at the face
"Lord, haven't you thought about it yet?" Guo Jia smiled bitterly.
Yuan Shu sighed lightly, and then said in a complicated tone: "I single-handedly led Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao to become emperors, completely cutting off the last glimmer of hope for the Han Dynasty, but I still haven't thought about whether I should be called emperor now, or wait for a unified Han to become emperor." ”
"It is better to be called emperor sooner rather than later, not to mention that with the current situation, if the lord is not called the emperor, we will fall into the upper hand in the general righteousness, even Yuan Benchu is ready to be called the emperor, why are you still hesitating?" Although Guo Jia is wise and knows Yuan Shu very well, he still doesn't understand why Yuan Shu hesitates in his heart, it is said that anyone should be excited at this time.
Yuan Shu looked down at his hands, his eyes were a little confused, he didn't know what he was confused about. It seems to be a little scared, a little sad, a little excited, a little worried.
Slowly clasping his hands, Yuan Shu closed his eyes expressionlessly, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled. When he opened his eyes again, the confusion in his eyes disappeared, replaced by sharp, majestic eyes.
"Then be the emperor! It is set to be ten days later, and he will be crowned emperor with Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan! Yuan said firmly.
When Guo Jia heard this, he looked at Yuan Shu's sharp eyes and firm face, and smiled slightly: "No! The emperor has already been prepared, and after only ten days, I Jiangdong can establish a country, and the lord can be called the emperor. ”
For the matter of being called the emperor, Yuan Shu himself did not care, and the civil and military forces under his command attached great importance to it, as early as a little news was just revealed in the distance, that is, before the troops were sent to Yuzhou, all the strategists, generals, families, and businessmen from all sides heard the wind and moved. Countless gifts and letters were sent to Guo Jia, and all kinds of beautiful treasures were sent to Guo Jia's house. There's no way, the one who can speak the most can be said by Yuan Shu is Guo Jia!
The most relied on strategists around Yuan Shu are the iron triangle composed of Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Xun You, as well as Tian Feng. But among these four people, Tian Feng is absolutely upright, and he didn't say anything if he wanted to do anything, after you gave the gift here, maybe Tian Feng would sue you to Yuan Shu the next day, no one wanted to go to this iron-faced Hades, it was boring to ask for it.
Among the remaining iron triangles, relatively speaking, Xun You and Yuan Shu are the most estranged, and the identity of the Xun family is also destined to Yuan Shu and him not being able to really open their hearts. And Xun You's stuffy personality has always disliked to express his opinions, and he won't speak if he doesn't have to, so it's basically impossible to expect such a person with the least sense of existence to speak for himself. Besides, how many people can talk to the Xun family on an equal footing?
Jia Xu is not much different from Guo Jia, but this product is bent on self-protection and is too sensitive. Just like the previous question of the generals of Xiliang, Jia Xu can not contact without contact, and he avoids anything that is dangerous and may cause Yuan Shu's disgust and suspicion. Be a lonely person who no one dares to approach.
So there is only one Guo Jia left who can speak in front of Yuan Shu. Guo Jia has a free and uninhibited personality, but he is not a person who is afraid of things. And with the acquiescence of Yuan Shu, he has always played the role of "minister" by Yuan Shu's side. All kinds of bribes are good friends and do not refuse, and Guo Jia has such a "privilege" under Yuan Shu. Of course, Guo Jia is very knowledgeable, and these bribes basically went into Jiangdong's treasury in the end, and he occasionally withheld two gadgets to play with Yuan Shu for a few days, and then acquiesced.
As soon as the news that Yuan Shu was going to become emperor this time was released, Guo Jia's small treasury soared instantly, and the gifts he received were almost impossible to put down. Among them, many "reasonable" requests were also gathered by Guo Jia, and they were ready to report to Yuan Shu now.
Guo Jia smiled flatteringly, took out a list of gifts from his sleeve, and then marked the name of the person who gave the gift, the situation, and the request, and handed it to Yuan Shu.
Yuan Shu didn't look at it, and directly handed it to the maid next to him: "Then go to the backyard, hand it to Mrs., and let her count it." ”
"Yes!"
After the maid left, Yuan Shu rolled his eyes at Guo Jia and said directly: "Say it!" What's going on this time? ”
"That, if it's an ordinary thing, Jia won't come to the lord to say, just leave it to Mrs. Cai. But this time, there are many people who think that the lord is about to ascend the throne and become the emperor, and there are too few harem concubines and concubines, so the princess's heirs are thin in the future, which may not be conducive to the great cause of the lord and the stability of Jiangdong. So..."Speaking of this, Guo Jia couldn't help but smile.
"So they introduced a lot of women of the right age, such as their daughters, and they want you to recommend one or two, right?" Yuan Shudao.
"The lord is really wise, and he can guess it!" Guo Jia said with a shy smile.
"Who are they?" Yuan Shu doesn't mind too much about others stuffing women into his harem now. In his position, he is polygamous in this era, not to mention his current status, if he is the emperor, his wife and concubines are really unreasonable. Not only will the people under his command be worried, but even the prestige of his wife and concubine will be damaged, and he will have a bad reputation for jealousy.
Yuan Shu is a normal man, he naturally likes beautiful women, and now he is about to become the emperor. Generally speaking, the number of people in the harem should be at least ten or more, so as to ensure the peace of the harem and the prosperity of the heirs. Parenthesis, this sentence comes from Cai Yong's mouth.
When Guo Jia heard this, he grinned: "Don't worry, the lord has passed the check, they are all innocent, virtuous, and beautiful?" ”
"Nonsense!" Yuan Shu rolled his eyes: "If it weren't for the beauty, she would dare to offer it and make me happy?" Believe it or not, I'll kill him? ”
How many ugly children of the family are? There is no shortage of beauties among the children of the family, and the appearance of the wives and concubines they marry is all leveraged, and the genes have been continuously optimized over the generations, coupled with the superior life and temperament bonus, it is natural that there are mostly handsome men and beauties. Most of the ugly ones are genetically mutated, which is extremely rare.
Although Yuan Shu's appearance is not as handsome and extraordinary as Yuan Shao, he is still handsome, otherwise he would not be valued by the Yuan family and followed by so many people. After all, this is an era of looking at faces. Yuan Shaoshu was able to win the love of Yuan Feng and Yuan Kui because of his handsome and mighty appearance. And the reason why Yuan Shao dotes on his youngest son Yuan Shang is also because his youngest son has an extraordinary appearance, according to his words, he is similar to me. In history, Yuan Shu wanted to recognize Sun Ce and Zhou Yu as his godsons, also because these two were extraordinary.
It can be seen that the end of the Han Dynasty was an era of looking at faces, and the Yuan family was even more so, and the handsome talent was more valued. I just don't know if Yuan Shu is so angry with Yuan Shao, is there a reason why he is not as handsome as Yuan Shao. After all, Yuan Shao's handsome appearance is also famous, and the early princes of the world had the best appearance for him and Liu Biao.
"Lord, there are too many people, Jia is not easy to speak, they have all come to Jinling, it is better to leave it to the back, lord, you and a few ladies will personally check it." However, there are a few of them that I hope you will pay attention to. Guo Jia took out a large stack of paper from his sleeve as if by magic, on which were all portraits and messages of women, and handed them to the maid beside him.
"Oh? Which ones? Yuan Shu asked with interest. He didn't have to guess to think that it must include the daughters of families in Yizhou, Yuzhou and other states, or the daughters of some Confucian scholars. He was used to this kind of political marriage, and he was not too disgusted by it. Anyway, they are all married wives, these people have very good families, and their appearance is naturally stunning, and marrying by the way can also be beneficial to their Wang Tu hegemony, why not do it?
