Chapter 35: Three high-fives
"Does the son know the Sima family in Wen County, Hanoi?" Sima Hui said. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Isn't that Sima Yi's family? Liu Yong was shocked.
"The kid has heard of it, he is a big family, and he is a prominent family in Hanoi. The second family has a long history, can be traced back to Xia, since the Chu Han Sima Yang began the clan has been prosperous, so far the family power is huge, in the Dong thief cholera court has not declined. It is said that the current patriarch Sima Fang is also a very powerful figure. Liu Yong stated briefly from memory.
"Childe is really very human. Yes, the Sima family in Hanoi did prosper. Sima Hui's eyes were shining, his expression was excited, and there was a kind of arrogance, which was very different from what he saw during the day and his kindness and plainness.
"Mr. is also surnamed Sima, is Mr. also a member of this clan?" Liu Yong had a guess in his heart, but he didn't dare to believe it.
Sima Hui nodded and said, "Yes, the old man is also a member of the Sima family in Hanoi, but he is just a side branch." It's still Sima Fang's uncle. ”
"Do you know why the Sima family has been able to endure for a long time, and after several dynasties, the rise and fall of imperial power has not fallen?"
Liu Yong and Sima Hui looked at each other: "I was about to ask for advice." ”
Sima Hui looked up at the ceiling, fell into deep thought, and after a moment, he spoke: "The reason why the Sima family has been able to stand so far is only one family motto: pave the road widely, make more friends, and be less greedy for power. ”
Like most young people, Liu Yong was very keen on the history of the Three Kingdoms when he was in school, and he also inquired about the history of the Sima family during the Three Kingdoms period, a family that could eventually become a royal family, but all he found were some simple records. It is also rumored that the Sima family is greedy for life and afraid of death, and is always as low-key and timid as an old turtle in order to survive forever. was able to take the throne of God, entirely because there was a bull Sima Yi at that time. But now hearing Sima Hui's words, Liu Yong knows that what future generations know is too superficial. This nine-character family motto is the policy of family development, which is very close to Liu Bowen's nine-character policy to Zhu Yuanzhang, "build a high wall, accumulate grain, and slowly become king", and the rise of the Sima family is by no means accidental.
"A good nine-character family motto is an excellent strategy. It seems that the Sima family has many people and no small ambitions, and the Sima family will become a big thing sooner or later! "Where is sooner or later, not far away, in a few decades to arrive, but he does not dare to reveal half a word to anyone.
"Hehe, there are many amazing and brilliant people in the ancestors, but in order for the family to survive for a long time, many people have to be unknown and keep a low profile, for fear of causing trouble and causing trouble to the family. Several times a child went out to be an official, but he didn't dare to really let it go, for fear of being feared, and even more afraid of being feared by the royal family. Sima Hui's face was free of the arrogance just now, and his face was full of wry smile and helplessness. This old man who is full of scriptures makes Liu Yong also sigh with emotion, compared with individuals and families, sometimes they have to endure the pain of love.
Liu Yong guessed that with Sima Hui's great talent, he was afraid that he was also a victim of this nine-character family motto.
"There must be losses and gains, and the sacrifices of some of the most beautiful predecessors in the clan have also brought the prosperity of the family, isn't it?" Liu Yong comforted.
"Yes, there are losses and gains." This old man with peerless talent has been running silently for his family all his life, but in the end, he buried his talent, and only left the title of "knowing people" in history. Perhaps, in the Sima family, he has been talented all his life, but in the end, no one remembers it, and even the family may not be remembered, and even more so, there are many people who are said to be mediocre.
Liu Yong didn't urge, and sat quietly waiting for Sima Hui, who was deep in thought.
"It's a gaffe, so that Childe can see it." Sima Hui came back to his senses.
"It's okay, Mr. is full of scriptures, but for the sake of the family, endure buried, this kind of tenacious will makes Liu Yong admire it very much!" Liu Yong praised from the bottom of his heart.
"The purpose of the old man's visit tonight, I guess the son must have guessed it, and it is also out of family considerations. Although Childe is now a thief, but if there is chaos today, it is the time for the hero to rise, according to the old man's view, Childe is rich and rich, and he will be able to become a hegemon. The Sima family is willing to form an alliance with Gongzi and give Gongzi support in all aspects such as manpower and financial resources, of course, as a condition, Gongzi must promise to ensure that the Sima family is okay if it succeeds in the future. Covenant with an oath. Sima Hui said very solemnly.
"You can agree to this, but ask to see someone and ask him to agree on behalf of your family." Liu Yong thought for a while. If there is no intervention, it is inevitable that the Sima family will ascend to the throne, but he knows this truth very well. He wants some kind of good enough.
Seeing Sima Hui frowning, Liu Yong said again: "It's not that Mr. Suspicion, it's just that Liu Yong really wants to see this person." ”
"Who?" Sima Hui was puzzled.
"Sima Yi." Liu Yong said a name word by word.
Sima Hui stood up instantly, very shocked, and pointed at Liu Yong: "How did you know the name of Zhongda?" ”
Sima Hui's performance made Liu Yong very happy, which is enough to show that Sima Yi is indeed talented, and he is also expected by the clan, for fear of any accidents. If nothing else, the prosperity of the Sima family can only be on Sima Yi, and the oath with Sima Yi is the most effective, and he has not yet succeeded, so he can still sit on an equal footing.
"Okay, but this matter needs the permission of the clan, and I will contact the clan as soon as possible. There is news that the old man will immediately report to the son. Sima Hui thought for a long time and finally made up his mind.
"High five!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
The palms touched, and three crisp applause rang out, loud and vibrating in the room, but in the hearts of the two of them it was a roar, if it happened, this moment would be a moment to remember for a lifetime. It's just that Sima Hui would never have imagined how much impact these three high-fives would have on the Sima family.
Sima Hui left, and he left with hope and shock.
The hope is that I hope that this time I will really find a big backer for the family, and his vein can be merged into the main vein, and his status and voice in the clan will be doubled.
What shocked him was that every time he saw this young man, he would have new feelings: the first time they met, this young man showed a literary brilliance far beyond ordinary people, and that poem was a masterpiece. The second time we met, it was understanding. Even Shi Tao and Xu Shu couldn't understand his approach, but this young man understood that his approach was actually a sentence of "think twice, think and act". The third time we met, tonight, it was scary. It was a strange word to him, but tonight, he, even if he lived in Jingzhou, had Sima Hui, who was praised for "knowing people", he was scared, and he was scared when the young man said the name Sima Yi. Sima Yi is a rising star in the clan, talented, and magnificent, in order to prevent being hurt, the clan protects Sima Yi very strictly, and even prevents him from showing his talent too much. However, the young man already knew.
Sima Hui is gambling, gambling with his own life and the life of the entire family, betting that Liu Yong can bring new opportunities and heights to the family. He is already old and can't afford to wait, it is difficult to meet such a character, and now he wants to seize the opportunity, even if he becomes the family's eternal sinner, he will not hesitate.
