It is said that Zeng Yu and several of them talked happily in the Hero Building, and they felt a little late to see each other. Xun You was reserved at first, but he couldn't bear Guo Jia's persuasion next to him, and Zeng Yu really made people feel that he was a good person, so he slowly let go.

During this period, Zeng Yu pretended not to know who Xun Yu's uncle was, and asked him about Xun Yu's situation. It turned out that at this time, Xun Yu, as the most outstanding young and middle-aged child of the Xun family, did not hold any official position because of the disaster of the party, but sat at home, educating the reserve children of the family while taking care of the family. Of course, Zeng Yu knew that since Xun Yu had a way to enter the court as an official, Xun Yu must have done the same, and the reason why he didn't do it was probably to wait for someone who could help him to help the Han family appear.

Thinking of Xun Yu's position in history and the role he played in the Cao Cao Group, Zeng Yu was moved. But Zeng Yu knows that treating Xun Yu and Guo Jia differently, Xun Yu has the most basic principle in his heart, that is, to be loyal to the Han family, if you want to win his sincere service, you have to think long-term. Even he himself is not too sure about Xun Yu, after all, people of this level are very firm in their hearts, and what Zeng Yu wants to do is to overthrow the Han family, which is almost the opposite of Xun Yu.

Zeng Yu felt unhappy for a while, after all, with such a great talent, he may not be able to win over his subordinates. When Zeng Yu raised his head and saw that Guo Jia was now in front of him, he hoped to win him over, and he was happy again. After all, you can't be too greedy, just do your best when the time comes, and it depends on the will of God whether you succeed or not.

Although he thought about it so much, in Guo Jia's opinion, he just looked outside and wandered for a few seconds. Guo Jia saw him looking out intently and shouted, "What is Zirui looking at?" ”

"Oh, nothing, just something that suddenly came to mind. Come, Bong-hyo drinks. Zeng Yu turned his head, perfunctory, and then raised his glass and toasted Guo Jia.

Zeng Yu finished drinking, put down the wine glass, and asked Xun You: "Gongda, I want to inquire about an old man." His name is Jia Xu Jia Wenhe, and he was also investigated for filial piety and honesty a few years ago, and he also served as the Huangmen squire, I don't know if he is still in office? ”

"Jia Wen and I know that he was appointed as the Huangmen Shilang in the sixth year of Jiaping, but after only two years, he resigned due to illness in the second year of Guanghe, and returned to his hometown of Liangzhou Guzang to the west, and he should still be recuperating at home. It is said that this person handled things thoroughly when he was serving as the squire of the Yellow Gate, and he did not make a single mistake. What's even more terrifying, everyone's impression of him is the same, that is, a good old man, who seems to have a good relationship with him, but when asked about the specifics, I can't say why, I still heard people mention this person to know his current situation. Zirui asked this person, is he your old friend? Xun You heard Zeng Yu ask about Jia Xu, and couldn't help but have a vague impression in his heart, although Jia Xu did not leave any deeds during his tenure, but just by virtue of the image he showed to everyone, Xun You felt that he was not an ordinary person.

"He's kind of a fellow brother of mine, and the last time we saw him was ten years ago. My family heard that he was an official in the court and asked me to visit. But I asked several times, but I couldn't find it, and now I know that he actually resigned due to illness, so I can only find another chance next time. Zeng Yu explained.

But this is not his nonsense, Jia Xu is indeed his fellow senior brother. Jia Xu is the last descendant of Jia Yi and Jia Changsha, a writer of the Western Han Dynasty, Jia Yi belonged to the representative of the Legalists at that time, and was the inheritance of the Guigu lineage. However, at that time, Huang Lao was in charge, and the Guigu family only did a little bit of military work, and the power of other aspects in the court was not large, resulting in Jia Yi, who was originally cultivated as a successor, was squeezed out by the ministers at that time, Zhou Bo and Guan Ying, and was named the prince of Changsha. King Huai of Liang fell from his horse and died, and Jia Yi felt sorry and died of depression at the age of thirty-three. Later, Jia Yi's descendants often had some contact with the Guigu family. Jia Xu even followed his father Jia Gong to Qianlong Village once in the next time, of course, Zeng Yu at that time didn't know that this person would be a top strategist in the future, but he felt that he was very smart.

When he came out of Qianlong Village this time, he specially asked Sun Hao's father, the village chief, about Jia Xu's news, and the village chief told him that Jia Xu served as a Huangmen squire in the capital a few years ago. But when he arrived in Luoyang this time, he asked his soldiers to inquire several times, but he didn't hear that there was a Huangmen squire named Jia Xu, and when he heard Xun You's explanation, he finally knew the reason.

However, he felt that Jia Xu's so-called resignation due to illness was probably not true, after all, with Jia Xu's wisdom, he could definitely see that Luoyang City at this time had no suitable soil for him to survive, and he had no place to use it at all, and if he performed too well, he might even attract inexplicable suppression or plotting.

"I didn't think that Jia Wenhe turned out to be Zi Rui's senior brother, it's really surprising, I don't know what classics Zi Rui's master is practicing?" Xun You was taken aback when he heard Zeng Yu's answer, he didn't expect Jia Xu and Zeng Yu to have this relationship, and at the same time, he was also curious about which school Zeng Yu was practicing, and there would be two great talents one after another, Jia Xu and the current Zeng Yu.

"It's just that some Confucian classics such as poetry and Shangshu are not proficient, but only slightly practiced, and they are not as good as the classics that have been passed down by your family for hundreds of years." Zeng Yu naturally wouldn't tell his brother Xun Yu all at once, shirked it, and led the topic to the Xun family by the way.

"The Xun family is only borrowing the glory of their ancestors, but they are currently practicing Confucianism, and few other classics are being studied." Xun You said with emotion.

Since the ancestors of the Yingchuan Xun family established the family until Xunzi became a Confucian sage, the family has developed greatly. After that, although they experienced the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Xun family still had great power in the local area. The children of his clan have been officials for many generations, and the whole family has accumulated hundreds of generations, and the collection of classics can be imagined. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Xun family made a qualitative leap and became the top wealthy family in the Han Dynasty.

At that time, the family of the Yingchuan Xun family was Xun Shu, and he was a well-known celebrity in the Yingchuan region and even the whole country. Another reason for Xun Shu's fame in addition to his own "difficult to be clear" is that he has close exchanges with party members. At that time, it was the first period of the disaster of the party, and the core of the party was the "Three Gentlemen", "Eight Jun", "Eight Ji", "Eight Gu" and "Eight Cooks", Chen Fan among the Three Juns, Li Ying and Wang Chang among the Eight Jun, all of whom were students of Xun Shu. These people are all leaders in the party, and Xun Shu, who is their teacher, is naturally famous.

At that time, the Xun family, as a local famous family, openly satirized the rulers, until the second party disaster broke out, Xun Yu (also one of the eight jun) in the Yingchuan Xun clan was killed, and Xun Tan was imprisoned for life. Later, the children of the Xun family began to devote themselves to studying and studying Confucianism. Up to now, there are Xun's Eight Dragons, and everyone is a great talent in the world.

"Gongda is humble, I believe that the Xun family will be more brilliant because of Gongda you in the future."

"That's right, Gongda, I, Guo Jia, rarely admire people, and you and Wen Ruo are one of the few people I admire. Today, of course, there are more

one, that is Zi Rui. Guo Jia also added at this time.

"Thanks to the two, I believe that in the future, there will be more Yingchuan Guo Jia and Shangdang Zeng's family." Xun You also responded.

The three of them chatted with each other for a while, until no one finished drinking a jar of wine, and then dispersed the banquet at Xun You's suggestion. Xun Yu watched Zeng Yu and Zhu Wen lead Guo Jia into the Confucian Mansion and walked towards his residence in Luoyang.

When the soldiers in the inn saw Zeng Yu coming back, they naturally stepped forward to salute. Guo Jia was surprised when he saw this, he didn't expect Zeng Yu to have such a tough person as a personal soldier in addition to Zhu Wen to follow and protect him at any time.

Zeng Yu saw the surprise in Guo Jia's eyes, and smiled in his heart, knowing that Guo Jia's curiosity about himself deepened. He asked his soldiers to guard the courtyard gate and prevent others from entering, while he led Guo Jia to the main house, and the two sat down one after another.

Zeng Yu didn't beat around the bush, and asked Guo Jia directly: "Fengxiao, what do you think of the current Han Dynasty, do you think he can still be saved?" ”

"When the eunuch is in power today, the sun sets in the Han Dynasty." Guo Jia took a deep look at Zeng Yu, and said a rebellious sentence as sharp as a knife plainly.

"Haha. Feng Xiao is really Feng Xiao, and he was not affected by what I said in the Hero Building just now! Zeng Yu laughed, nodded and said.

"But please say that." Guo Jia's smart eyes flashed with a gleam, he arched his hand to Zeng Yu, and said, he wanted to hear why Zeng Yu said it, it seemed that he wanted to overturn his own views in the Hero Building. Although he was uninhibited, he had great respect for learning. Guo Jia at this moment is like two people from before.

"If you want to listen to filial piety, you will try to say it."

Zeng Yu's eyes flashed with seriousness, staring at Guo Jia and said: "Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, the selection of officials is filial piety. Only seek fame, not talent. The officials are out of the family, and the poor family is in decline. These officials ascended to the sky in one step, came from rich and noble backgrounds, and did not understand the sufferings of the world. ”

Zeng Yu said this, ignoring Guo Jia's surprise, and continued: "Let's ask today's civil and military, which one has experience in governing a state, a general in the army, and that one has been on the battlefield and experienced the training of blood and fire. They just have a good background, even if they have no talent and no virtue, they can easily achieve a position that a poor scholar can't do in a lifetime. ”

"Sss

Guo Jia gasped and looked at Ying Fei in horror. Such a theory is too shocking to the world. Although Guo Jia has a forward-looking vision, he can't calm down for a while.

"Zi Rui wants to?"

Is Guo Jia worthy of Guo Jia, he woke up from his horror in a moment and asked Zeng Yu.

"Break the existing power structure, reproduce the contention of a hundred schools, and give all scholars a fair chance to be promoted. Establish a heart for heaven and earth, ask for the life of the people, and continue to learn for the saints. ”

Zeng Yu's answer was very simple, and he exuded a kind of pride at this time that he wanted to be higher than the heavenly princess, although tens of millions of people wanted to go to the sky.

Guo Jia's eyes flashed with a touch of horror, followed by excitement, and then a kind of worry, in short, in this short moment, his emotions have undergone many changes.

Zeng Yu thought about it a hundred times, his eyes turned, and his eyes burst out with a shocking sharpness, staring at Guo Jia and said: "I want to summon Feng Xiao as the mastermind, do you want to?"
