After visiting the four major families of Yingchuan, the Xun family, the Chen family, the Zhong family and the Han family, Yuan Shu was ready to return to Runan.

This time I came to Yingchuan, to be honest, Yuan Shu really gained a lot, Xun Yue and Xun Yan of the Xun family, and Chen Zhong of the Chen family, although they are not the most outstanding characters in their own family, but they also belong to the young and handsome people. These people were able to come to Yuan Shu's command, which shows that the major families in Yingchuan are still quite optimistic about Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu, who was born in the first family in the world, naturally knew the way of survival of the family in the troubled times. Eggs can never be put in one basket, but what kind of basket they put is particular. Only a basket that is strong enough will allow these families to put their eggs in it willingly.

Now the major families in Yingchuan are willing to send their children to Yuan Shu to work for Yuan Shu, which is enough to show Yuan Shu's current influence.

In the current world, Dong Zhuo's power is still the largest, and his strength is still the strongest, but under Dong Zhuo, it is Yuan Shu, Liu Yu, Liu Yan, Liu Biao and others, as for Sun Jian, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, etc., the current territory is not very big, and Yuan Shu, who occupies Nanyang and Yuzhou, has become one of the first-level princes in the world.

Yuan Shu's ability in the process of taking Nanyang and entering Yuzhou also made the world's families look at Yuan Shu with some admiration, thinking that Yuan Shu is worthy of being the concubine of the Yuan family in Runan, and the bearing and ability shown are quite extraordinary.

After visiting the Han family, Yuan Shu's trip to Yingchuan was supposed to end here, but a name that Yuan Yao heard by chance was that Yuan Shu's trip to Yingchuan was not over.

Looking at Yuan Yao, who was looking anxious in front of him, Yuan Shu smiled and said, "Yao'er, what's wrong, so flustered, is there anything wrong?" ”

Yuan Yao said: "Father, the child heard that there is a hermit master in a nearby mountain forest, who is called 'Mr. Kong Ming', and is quite famous. ”

"Mr. Kong Ming?" Yuan Shu raised his eyebrows at this time and said, "Yao'er, what you said is true?" ”

Yuan Yao nodded and said: "What the child said is true, if the father doesn't believe it, he can invite Mr. Xun Yue, Xun Yan, and Chen Zhong to ask, this Mr. Kong Ming is also quite famous in Yingchuan, and several gentlemen should know." ”

When Yuan Yao heard this, he ordered someone to go down and invite Xun Yue, Xun Yan and Chen Zhong, and after these three people came to Yuan Shu, they first saluted Yuan Shu, and then stood quietly aside.

The Maison inherits not only knowledge and wisdom, but also rituals.

After Xun Yue, Xun Yan, and Chen Zhong all came, Yuan Shu said: "Zhongyu, Xiu Ruo, Xiaoxian, Yao'er heard that there is a 'Mr. Kong Ming' living in seclusion in this Yingchuan, who is quite virtuous, I asked the three of you to come just to ask if there is really such a person?" ”

"Mr. Kong Ming?" Xun Yue, Xun Yan, and Chen Zhong glanced at each other, and finally Xun Yue said: "Lord, the Mr. Kong Ming that the prince said should be Hu Zhao Hu Kongming, this person is indeed quite famous." Originally, he was in Jizhou to avoid chaos, and he only returned to Yingchuan recently. ”

"Oh!" Yuan Shu was also interested at this time, and asked, "Then Yi Zhongyu, do you think that if I want to visit this person, can I have a chance to recruit him?" ”

Xun Yue said: "This subordinate doesn't know very well, but it is said that when this Hu Kongming was in Jizhou, Han Fu and Yuan Shao both wanted to recruit him as an official, but they were rejected by him, if the lord wants to recruit this person, I am afraid it will not be easy." ”

Yuan Yao said at this time: "Father, although it is not easy, it is not impossible. ”

"Hmm!" Yuan Shu also nodded in response. Although Hu Zhao rejected Han Fu and Yuan Shao's solicitation, he may not necessarily refuse Yuan Shu's solicitation. Whether it is Han Fu or Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu is not eye-catching in his heart.

Han Fu is the protégé of the Runan Yuan family, in Yuan Yao's opinion, it is like that, if there is no Runan Yuan family behind him, how can he sit in the high position he is now with Han Fu's ability. As for Yuan Shao, he and Yuan Shu have always been not very good at dealing with each other, and even Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu look down on each other.

Yuan Yao saw that Yuan Shu did not give up his plan to recruit Hu Zhao, and he was also relieved.

At the beginning, when he heard the words of Mr. Kong Ming, Yuan Yao's idea was that it would not be Zhuge Liang, but later Yuan Yao remembered that the current Zhuge Liang was younger than himself, and no matter how Zhuge Liang thought, it would not appear in Yingchuan.

After that, Yuan Yao reacted, during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, Zhuge Liang was not the only one who used Kong Ming as the character, and there was another person whose character was also Kong Ming, that is, Hu Zhao.

Although Hu Zhao, the Kong Ming, is not as famous as Zhuge Liang's Kong Ming in later generations, Hu Zhao is obviously much stronger than Zhuge Liang in this period when Zhuge Liang is still a little child.

Yuan Yao vaguely remembered that when he knew that there were not only Zhuge Kongming but also Hu Kongming during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, he also had a good understanding of Hu Zhao.

After knowing that Hu Zhao was now in Yingchuan, Yuan Yao just wanted to take Hu Zhao under his command, but Yuan Yao also knew that he was just a child in the eyes of these famous people, and there was no possibility of his own recruitment, so Yuan Yao just wanted Yuan Shu to recruit Hu Zhao under his command, so that with the help of Yuan Shu, Yuan Yao would make appropriate arrangements for Hu Zhao.

Yuan Shu really did not disappoint Yuan Yao, and after knowing that there was such a great talent as Hu Zhao in the Yingchuan realm, he immediately walked towards the mountains and forests where Hu Zhao lived in seclusion under the guidance of Xun Yue and a few others.

Hu Zhao returned to Yingchuan from Jizhou and lived in seclusion in Yingchuan until Cao Cao's official residence was the prime minister of Sikong, Hu Zhao was frequently recruited with courtesy, Hu Zhao went to Cao Cao's command to respond to the appointment, and persuaded Cao Cao to give up recruiting himself, after which Hu Zhao returned to Yingchuan, moved to Luhun Mountain, and cultivated himself, taking the pleasure of seeking the Tao and studying the scriptures for his own amusement.

And the reason why Hu Zhao refused Cao Cao's recruitment was because when Cao Cao recruited Hu Zhao, Hu Zhao already had no heart to become a leader, and just wanted to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests.

When avoiding chaos in Jizhou, Han Fu and Yuan Shao both wanted to recruit Hu Zhao to be officials under their subordinates, but Hu Zhao did not join these two people, because in Hu Zhao's opinion, neither Han Fu nor Yuan Shao was the master he wanted.

Yuan Yao was lucky this time, if he hadn't heard others talking about Mr. Kong Ming, then maybe he would have passed by Hu Zhao and lost a great talent.

However, even if this time Yuan Shu found Hu Zhao under the guidance of Xun Yue and others, and expressed to Hu Zhao that he wanted to recruit Hu Zhao to Dao's command, Hu Zhao still refused Yuan Shu's solicitation and did not come to Yuan Shu's command as Yuan Yao wished.
