Chen Qun immediately replied briskly: "Dare not obey orders." ”

"Well," I said, "in that case, let's go back to the inn and talk." ”

After speaking, I said to Guan Ning and the others: "You'an, Zizheng, Fu Hao, we visited all the celebrities today, and recruited Chen Qun, my frame is already full, let's go back to the inn to celebrate."

After saying that, I won't get up and leave. Behind him, a murmuring sounded. Everywhere they whispered, "Who is this man?" ”

Shortly after returning to the inn, I met a messenger from Izumo Castle. Recently, they found the famous general Tai Shici in Liaodong, it is said that he offended the county officials, took refuge in Liaodong, heard that Izumo City was prosperous, he specially came to Izumo City to see the scenery, fortunately when entering the city to sign up, was found by Gao Shan, and then sent a fast horse to report me.

The letter also said that Tai Shi Ci's mother was extremely filial, but his mother had choking (esophageal cancer) and was seeking medical treatment everywhere, and the fish lice in the Guanfeng Fish Cave that we collected in Shennongjia were just a good medicine for this disease, so Gao Shan first stabilized him, and then sent someone to send the fish lice to Zhuo County, and then told Tai Shi Ci that I had a good medicine for this disease and asked him to come to me. The letter told me to hurry back to Zhuo County and wait for Tai Shici's arrival.

Ah, Tai Shici, this is a brave general who can compete with the little overlord Sun Ce. Definitely worth a trip back to me. Besides, I have made a good impression here, and in my present status as an unofficial and unemployed, there is no point in asking for these celebrities to go any further. Take it when you see it. I quickly ordered everyone to pack up, leaving only 10 guards waiting for Luoyang's reply, and the rest marched towards Zhuoxian overnight.

The next day, the people of Yingchuan Academy had not yet received the news that we had left overnight, and they gathered in the academy, grinding their fists, preparing to fight us again. At this time, Nanyang Xu Shao suddenly broke into the academy and opened his mouth to ask: "Where is Liu Bei and Liu Xuande?" ”

The academy people were surprised and asked, "Who is Liu Xuande who made Xu Gong ask such a question?" ”

Although this Xu Shao and Xu Zi are not ranked in the third duke, they are known for being good at identifying characters with their brother Xu Jing. On the first day of each month, they talked about current affairs in Runan Pingyu and commented on the township party figures. The words are practical and to the point, and have been appreciated by many celebrities, many of whom have come to listen to their high-minded conversations, and because they change the content of the conversation at the beginning of each month, they are also called "Yuedan Commentary".

All the characters who have been appraised by them will be greatly worthy. Cao Cao once brought a heavy gift to Xu Shao, asked for advice and inquired about Xu Shao's evaluation of him, and got the comment of "a capable minister who governs the world, and a traitor in troubled times". Since then, this sentence has almost been called the conclusion of Cao Cao's life, and "a generation of traitors" has also become synonymous with Cao Cao.

It is said that Xu Shao never visited others, but many celebrities visited him in an endless stream, hoping to get the praise of their brothers, and Xu Shao came to meet an unknown person unusually, which could not help but surprise the people of the academy, so he raised questions.

Xu Zijiang sighed and said: "I heard the hero Wang Yue say in Luoyang that his apprentice Liu Xuande is a hero in the world, and he dares to chase the Xianbei bandits for thousands of miles with 200 light horses; Hearing that his friend Gongsun Chan was in trouble, he led 3,000 people to dare to attack the 70,000 Zhang Chun army, and won the battle, and his loyalty to his friend was unparalleled in the world. This person heard the suffering of the people, then wept and sighed, gathered the homeless people to save themselves, if there are offenders of the homeless, although the officials of different races also dare to fight, benevolence and virtue are widely prepared in Liaoxi, Liu Youzhou and Gongsun Zan attacked each other, this person resolutely went to the official, with the righteousness of all the friends. I heard about this man, so I came to see him. ”

Everyone asked again: "Since Duke Xu wants to see this Liu Xuande, how can he find our academy, there is no one named Liu Xuande in the academy." ”

Xu Zijiang explained: "I saw Liu Xuande's attendant sent to greet his master Wang Yue in Luoyang, and I heard Wang Yue say that this person is looking for today's famous people in Yingchuan, in this case, how can he not come to Yingchuan Academy?" ”

Yes, if you can't find the wholesale station of Baume & Mercier - Yingchuan Academy, how can it not be ridiculous. Everyone was ashamed and replied, "This person has indeed never been to the academy." ”

Xun Yu Xun You's uncle and nephew glanced at each other, and said in a loud voice: "This person may have been to the academy, have you forgotten, the academy had a person with no name yesterday." ”

Everyone immediately suddenly asked, "Could it be that this person is Liu Bei and Liu Xuande?" ”

Xu Zijiang immediately asked, "How is this person?" ”

So, Xun Yu and others described yesterday's scene to him, when he heard me drop the cup for Chen Qun, Xu Shao sighed: "This person may be Liu Bei Liu Xuande, I have heard Wang Yue say that this kind of crystal cup is only produced in Chen Korea, in addition to the Zhongguan Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Zuo Feng, only the Liaodong Gongsun family and his apprentice Liu Bei have." It is rumored that Guan Ning Bingyuan Wang Lie moved his family to Liaoxi last year to avoid trouble, if he goes to Liaoxi, with Liu Bei's talent, he will join Liu Bei's men, it is also conceivable. Let's wait for him to come, and we'll find out when we ask. ”

Later, Xu Zijiang sighed: "Everything in the world is people-oriented, how good it is." I don't grieve for the loss of things, but I rejoice in winning people (Chen Qun), how can I not see such a character? Today is until the sun sets, and I will see such a person."

And so on, indeed, until the twilight of the day. Xu Zijiang couldn't sit still and asked, "He's in that inn, I'll look for him." ”

Xun Yu Xun You's uncle and nephew immediately said: "Go together, I just want to see this person again." ”

When the group arrived at the inn, it happened that Tian Chou Guanhai rushed back from Luoyang, packed up and prepared to return to Zhuo County. General Xu Zi split his head and asked: "I have seen the two of you in the Wangyue Mansion in Luoyang, but your lord is Liu Bei and Liu Xuande?" ”

When Tian Chou heard this, he immediately stepped forward respectfully and saluted: "My family master is just Xuande Gong, you are coming from Luoyang, but you brought a message from Master Wang Yue?" ”

Xu Zijiang replied proudly: "I am Xu Shao Xu Zijiang of Nanyang, not someone sent by Wang Yue. I'm here today to see your father-in-law. ”

Tian Chou heard the name of General Xu Zi, and replied more and more respectfully: "It is unfortunate that Xu Gong came, there is something in my father-in-law's house, and he has rushed back to Zhuo County overnight yesterday, I don't know if Xu Gong is here, what do you think?" ”

Xu Zijiang's face was immediately full of disappointment, and after a deep groan, he asked again: "Guan You's encore." ”

Tian Chou replied: "I have returned to my hometown with my lord." ”

Xu Zijiang asked again: "Who are you?" ”

Without waiting for Tian Chou to answer, he turned his head to Guan Hai and asked, "This person is majestic and abnormal, can he have a name?" ”

Tian Chou replied respectfully: "I am Tian Chou Tian Zitai in Liaoxi." After hesitating for a moment, he added: "The current Liaoxi Wanderers Tun Place, the subject country Izumo of the Tun Soldier Chief. Turning his head and pointing at Guan Hai, he continued: "This general is the personal guard of the lord, Guan Hai Guan Bingyuan, and is currently the left forward general of the iron cavalry of Izumo in the western Liaoxi Liumin Tun and the subject country. ”

Guan Hai stepped forward and saluted, and Xu Zijiang asked suspiciously: "I heard what you said, although you and others accompanied Liu Bei, they have not yet abandoned the official." ”

Tian Chou replied: "Liaoxi, the land of tigers and wolves, Xianbei Hu cavalry plundered and plundered, Zhang Chun's rebels harassed behind, and many officials appointed by the imperial court were robbed and killed by bandits. Although the lord has left his post, the people are still relying on the lord's name to deter the bandits. In all counties in western Liaoning, as long as the flag of the main public army is hoisted, the bandits will not dare to commit it. Therefore, we are entrusted by the exiles to accompany the lord by his side, so that he can wait for his resurrection. ”

General Xu Zi sighed and said: "The name of Xuande Gong is as brave as this, and a military flag actually stops the bandits, and he is really a hero in the world." ”

Tian Chou took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire and said: "Liaoxi children also sang 'If you don't know Liu Xuande in your life, it is in vain to call yourself a hero'."

Xu Zijiang nodded wistfully and said, "I hate to see Xuande Gong's face."

The crowd was in an uproar.

In the subsequent issue of the Yuedan review, Xu Zijiang sighed and said: "Liaoxi children also sang 'I don't know Liu Xuande in my life, so it's useless to call a hero', I see this person's behavior in Yingchuan Academy, a real hero." Although he was dressed in white, he was not ashamed, and he went straight into the chess pavilion and convinced Xun Wenruo in one game. Although he is not arrogant, he shares wine with Xun Wenruo. The lost property is not sad, but it is happy to get the boy Chen Qun. does not promote people's shortcomings, so although he wins Xun Wenruo, he does not go by name. I can't wait to see such a character. ”

Later, these words came to my ears, and Rao was very thick-skinned and blushing.
