Chapter 4: Good and bad news

I haven't been to Yangzhai for a long time, but in a year, it has actually returned to its former prosperity. There is an endless stream of business travelers, but more of them are handsome sons, and in the end, they are cultural holy places!

Xunfu is still very large, it seems to have been renovated, but it does not look fancy, but it looks more simple and natural.

"Sunshine, I haven't seen you for many days!" Xun Shuang personally went out to greet his son-in-law, accompanied by Xun Sui, the contemporary head of the Xun family, to say that Xun Shuang is Xun Cai's biological father, but in terms of pampering, it is not as good as Xun Cai's uncle.

"Father, uncle, and son-in-law are also quite guilty for failing to serve at all times!" Li Ming bowed to the two with a bitter face and said some communicative words.

"Don't be polite to us, boy! Returning to Xunfu is like returning to your own home! What are you doing there, come in! Xun Qi personally came forward and asked Li Ming and the generals to bring in. As for those families, they were arranged in the Xun manor outside the city, and Xu Huang and Dian Jie stayed behind to beware of thieves. In addition, Fang Bo and Zhu Meng also arranged to be stationed there.

Li Ming personally cooked, and Xun Cai was to help, originally thought that Xun Qi was talking about playing, who knew that he really prepared all the materials, and by the way, he designated a chicken called Hua Ji, anything else at will!

"This is tofu? How do you feel as if it's not cooked? What's on it?! After the food was really served, Xun Qi looked at the first dish and couldn't help but be a little curious.

"The first dish is fungus mixed with tofu, mainly chopped green onion and soy sauce as seasoning, and fungus is added, which we stumbled upon in the mountains, and can be spread by simply blanching it with water. This dish is refreshing and delicious, and it is a good appetizer as an appetizer! Li Ming explained with a smile.

"I didn't expect the tofu to have never been cooked, and it tasted so delicious!" Xun Qi clapped his hands and applauded, Li Ming didn't expect that this head of the Xun family was actually an authentic foodie.

"Uncle has been living in seclusion behind the scenes, Emperor Huan Yanxi was almost assassinated in seven years, but he survived by luck, and he also knew that he was not allowed to be in the imperial court, and he was already in a semi-secluded state, if it wasn't for the appearance of Yuntai, I am afraid that he would have declared his death to the outside world." Xun Cai whispered to popular science, "Uncle has been in seclusion for a long time, so this appetite has become the biggest hobby in addition to scripture and law!" ”

Li Ming doesn't know so much history, Emperor Huan Yanxi was seven years ago, it was almost twenty years ago, can you know that there are ghosts! The limited memory of the Eastern Han Dynasty mainly depends on knowing some historical figures in the early stage, as well as the Yellow Turban Uprising, the Taoyuan Rebellion, the princes fighting Dong, the Three Ying Wars against Lu Bu, the Wenjiu Slashing Huaxia, the Battle of Chibi, the three points of the world, and the return of the world to the Jin Dynasty. Especially in the Battle of Chibi, the grass boat borrowed arrows and wrote it directly in the language book, should you be so mad? As for the rest, who remembers so much?

Xun Sui, who is Xun Sui? He didn't even know that Xun Yu was Xun Yu's uncle, let alone Xun Yu's old son, Xun Yu!

The meal was suitable for the guests and the host, and Xun Qi and Xun Shuang praised Li Ming's cooking skills and improved Yunyun. The son-in-law has the ability, can forge, can metallurgy, can cook, and the key martial arts talent is so strong, it is rare that there are many talented people under the door!

"Riyao, I heard Cai'er say, are you going south this time to recruit two people by the way?" After the meal, Xun Qian waved away the others, and then asked, without others, naturally no one would dare to leak the secret.

"Husband, Cai'er also heard you say the names of the two...... We have to go directly to Huiji, and send someone over casually, but I'm afraid that it's not safe......" Xun Cai looked at the expression of his teacher with a look of a student who had done something wrong.

"You're for my good, I naturally know!" Li Ming smiled and took her hand over and patted it gently.

Then he arched his hand towards the two old men, and said slowly: "There are indeed two people I care about, one of them is Nanyang Huang Zhong, whose name is Hansheng, who is about thirty or forty years old, and his strength is amazing, and he is a fierce general!" The other person is a county official in Lingling County, his name is Huang Gai, and his words are public, and he is also a rare fierce general! ”

"Where did Riyao hear about these two?" Xun Qian nodded, but it was very strange, after all, Li Ming didn't seem to have left Luoyang, how did he know about the two people thousands of miles away.

"Mainly I know something from Wang Yue, when he was walking the world, he saw the two of them. Huang Gai is a heroic man and a righteous man; Not to mention Huang Zhong, if you want to talk about the killing competition, I'm afraid that Wang Yue may not be his opponent! Wang Yue is a contemporary great swordsman, since he is so respected, then naturally he will not be far behind!

The son-in-law went to Huiji this time, and it was inevitable that he would encounter some Shanyue or some demon beasts or something, and if he could have a few more fierce people around, he would be more at ease! Li Ming said slowly.

"It's easy to do! I'll send someone to invite you, and if you find it, I'll introduce them to you, and if they want to, I'll take them to meet you, how about it?" Xun Qian made a decision directly.

"Thank you, uncle!" Li Ming also knew that there was no room for bargaining, even if the two of them were absorbed by the Xun family, there was no way.

"Actually, I have two things to tell you when I call you over this time, one is good news and the other is bad news!" Xun Qi saw that the topic had begun, so he simply went straight to the topic.

After a pause, he said slowly: "First of all, the good news, the person who deliberately spread the news has been determined to be Liu Ting, to be precise, Shen Yue under his command. His Majesty was very angry and removed the two of them from their positions, and Shen Yue was almost killed directly, that is, Liu Ting pleaded for mercy and was finally forgiven.

It's not surprising that they've gone too far, and it will seem like Your Majesty is a little small-bellied. Who will serve such a king in the future? Even if it is for the sake of superficial work, His Majesty naturally has to put on a posture. ”

"That's good news!" Li Ming nodded, so that the two of them had no channel to continue targeting themselves for the time being. In ancient times, the speed of transmitting news was very slow, and without this channel, it would be difficult for them to deal with themselves.

"Bad news, Your Majesty officially recognized Liu Ting, the eldest son of the emperor, and named him the king of Hanzhong. When you see him in the future, I'm afraid you'll have to call him 'Your Highness'." Liu Ting is now under his command, and the texts include Shen Yue, Zhang Heng, Zhang Lu and Yang Song; Wu Youdianwei and Ma Teng, Hanzhong County has actually completely fallen into his hands, and his orders there are more useful than His Majesty's holy decrees. Xun Qian reminded.

The implication is that Liu Ting is already a prince with real power, and it is difficult to say whether he will ascend the throne in the future. Hanzhong is actually not that far away from Luoyang, and no one knows what will happen to him. If Liu Ting ascends the throne, then Li Ming will inevitably be suppressed by him!

"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided! And I think that even if Your Majesty does not object, the courtiers below will not allow Liu Ting to ascend the throne! Even if it is the eldest son of the current grandson, Liu Wei, I am afraid that it will be unpopular! Li Ming said with interest, Liu Bian's mother is He, and He is just a local gentry, and he is a nouveau riche.

Only Liu Xie is different, his mother was born in a family and has an excellent family education. Liu Xie has been very close to the family since he was a child, and he will inevitably rely on the family when he ascends the throne in the future, and the family gate valve can also gain further authority because of this.

"This is not something we can talk about!" Xun Qi actually knows about this situation, but this topic is a little sensitive.

"It's sunny and rest in the house for a few days, and it's not too late to leave when the news arrives!" Xun Shuang then proposed.
