0050: Yan Lei's overtures
Handan.
"Zikang Xian's nephew, thank you for your guidance and care of Ah Liang over the years......" Yan Lei looked at Li Yi and smiled, I don't know why, this time, Li Yi felt that Yan Lei was no longer like a junior to himself, but faintly put himself in the same or even higher position as him.
This kind of change made Li Yi a little unaccustomed, after all, the last time he saw Yan Lei, he still looked like an uncle and nephew.
"Virtuous nephew, I'll tell you bad news first, I hope you won't be too sad......" After the two sides sat down, Yan Lei suddenly looked at Li Yi with a serious face and said in a deep voice.
"Uncle, please speak." Li Yi looked at Yan Lei suspiciously, not knowing what bad news his uncle had to tell him.
"One of your mentors, General Huangfu, died of illness not long ago." Yan Lei said with a sigh.
"What?!" Li Yi was immediately shocked when he heard this, although strictly speaking, it is not strange when he died of illness at the age of Huangfu Gui, but when he suddenly heard the news, Li Yi still couldn't accept it.
Li Yi has always been very grateful to Huangfugui and Zhang Huan, because without the two of them, it would be impossible to have Li Yi today. Although he was a traverser, he was just an ordinary person before he crossed over, and without their careful teaching, Li Yifu would be just a fierce general at best.
And Li Yi is just the son of a landlord, although they admire Li Yan very much, but the dignified general Duliao and the Hun Zhonglang will accept the son of a landlord as a disciple at the same time, who will believe it?
"This is a letter sent by Huangfu Song, the nephew of General Huangfu." Yan Lei took out a copy of Jian Ce from his arms and handed it to Li Yi.
After taking it and unfolding it, the familiar handwriting suddenly evoked Li Yi's memories when he was studying in the past, and read it carefully, the content of this letter is very simple, that is, Huangfu Gui told Li Yi not to live up to his talent, and continue to work hard to learn literature and martial arts to serve the court in the future.
At the same time, Huangfu Gui said that he would be buried soon, so that Li Yi did not have to come to see him. and warned Li Yi not to agree to Wang Zhi and Dong Zhuo's wooing, and not to get together with the eunuchs.
In the end, Huangfu Gui made another suggestion to Li Yi, that is, Li Yi could enter the Tongzi Department to study, and when he was about 20 years old, he could be promoted to filial piety and sent back to the state.
Speaking of which, since the emergence of such a system as filial piety, many revisions have been made before and after, but most of the time, the people who are lifted are over 40 years old. Only those who have only learned people, and more importantly, those who have identity and background, such as Cao Cao and others later, may be raised as filial piety in their 20s.
Of course, Li Yi has no identity, a landlord, and the entire Han Dynasty does not have too much. But in terms of background, he is not low, the disciples of Huangfu Gui and Zhang Huan, even if Huangfu Gui dies of illness and Zhang Huan lives in seclusion, there are many people in the court who have to give this face.
In fact, Huangfu Gui had already stated in his letter that if Li Yi was willing, he would write to Zhang Huan, who lived in seclusion in Hongnong, and he would arrange everything.
"Master......" Li Yi looked at the letter and muttered to himself, he really didn't know how to repay the expectations and kindness of the emperor's rules. Even, he had some shame, because not long ago, he let go of Zhang Jiao, who would provoke the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the future.
Yes, let it go! Although Zhang Jiao's chicken soup and metaphysics made Li Yi a little dizzy, if Li Yi really wanted to kill Zhang Jiao, where would there be so many things? But in the end, for the sake of selfishness, Li Yi still chose to let Zhang Jiao go, and the result of this was that as long as there were no other accidents, the Yellow Turban Rebellion would break out as usual, and the world would not know how many people would die at that time.
Although Li Yi used it later, even if there was no Zhang Jiao, Li Jiao and Zhao Jiao would appear, but when he saw Huangfu Gui's letter and thought about his loyalty to the Han Dynasty and his expectations for himself, Li Yi couldn't help but feel ashamed. Because he knows that he may not meet the expectations of the emperor in this life.
Putting Jian Ce aside, Li Yi simply said what was written in Huangfu Gui's letter to Yan Lei, although Yan Lei did not say anything, but Li Yi knew that he was very curious about the content of the letter.
"I don't know what the virtuous nephew means......" Yan Lei couldn't help but ask when he heard this, but his tone became more and more respectful. This can't be blamed on Yan Lei, although the Yan family has been the largest landlord in Handan for several generations, but that's all. Although it cannot be said that no one is an official, basically an ordinary county official has come to an end.
And now, Li Yi, his own nephew, is so valued by the imperial court officials, and it is even likely to be on the rise, Rao is Yan Lei is almost 50 years old, and he can't help but get excited.
Shaking his head, Li Yi said lightly, "My nephew's mind is a little messy now, and he hasn't thought about what to do in the future." But come to think of it, when I return to the state, my nephew will definitely make a choice. Li Yi didn't lie, because of Huangfu Gui's letters, he is indeed a mess now, how do you know what to do in the future?
"That's it......" Yan Lei paused when he heard this, as if he didn't expect Li Yi to answer like this, but he soon returned to normal and ordered someone to start preparing a banquet to entertain Li Yi.
During the banquet, Yan Lei frequently toasted Li Yi, but he did not mention the previous matter. On the other side, Yan Liang and Lu Bu were constantly whispering.
Speaking of which, when he was in the Li family, because of Li Yi's identity and being too mature, even Yan Liang, who had brotherhood, was inevitably a little shorter in many cases. In this case, Yan Liang had the best friendship in the Li family, but it was Lu Bu and Gao Shun. Well? What about Zhao Yun? Naturally, it was with Zhang Liao, who was one year younger than him.
After staying at Yan's house for one night, Li Yi and Lu Bu set off for Yanzhou, when they were preparing to travel the world, Li Yi did not have any clear destination, but simply wanted to go out for a walk, and by the way to visit those later famous generals. However, after walking Youzhou and Jizhou, he suddenly found that he was a little naïve.
Because of the transportation and communication of this era, it is really difficult for him to find a certain famous general. After all, they can't stay there like in the game, if no one hires them, they will stay there all the time, and in fact, in the later stage of [Three Kingdoms], the generals in the opposition will also run around on their own.
So Li Yi gave up this idea and made the decision to go straight to Yingchuan Yangzhai instead. After all, compared to getting acquainted with famous generals, it is obviously more valuable to go to Sima Hui. And strictly speaking, even if these famous generals don't visit now, they will always see them in the future.
