Lu Ren's reply letter, Guo Jia was reading it over and over again. I don't know how many times I read it, and when Guo Jia could recite it word for word, Guo Jia suddenly smiled: "You are really slippery enough to be so young, between the lines of this letter, there is a sense that you don't want to offend at both ends, and you want to please both ends!" ”

Lu Ren's reply letter is simply like this:

"Hello Old Yuan, your big boss Yuan thinks so highly of me, of course I, Lu Ren, am very happy. It is said that your boss Yuan recruited me with a high salary and beautiful women, and I should have jumped to you immediately. However, you have to have a conscience and conscience, and Boss Cao appreciated me and promoted me when I was nothing, so I Lu Ren could have today's achievements, so when Boss Cao's company did not go bankrupt, my conscience did not allow me to jump to you.

However, I, Lu Ren, do not have any hostility towards you Boss Yuan, and I am in charge of logistics here with Boss Cao, and I will not do anything against your Boss Yuan. And you, Boss Yuan, have always been generous to others, and you should be able to understand the mentality of a small person like me. If Boss Cao's company closes one day, of course I will naturally join your Boss Yuan's company, and in that case, I can be considered worthy of Boss Cao......"

Such a letter, just like Guo Jia said, Lu Ren is a typical person who doesn't want to offend both ends. Moreover, as far as the code of conduct of the scholars at that time is concerned, Lu Ren's style should also be affirmed. This seems to be a bit nonsense, and Lu Ren didn't dare to let Cai Yan write like this if he didn't think about it.

For Yuan Shao's side, Lu Ren is polite and admirable, but there must be a principle to be a man, and Yuan Shao will also look down on Lu Ren without this principle; And if something happens to this letter and it falls into Cao Cao's hands, Cao Cao really can't blame Lu Ren for anything.

First of all, Lu Ren did not defect. Secondly, Lu Ren's approach of not offending Yuan Shao is also a typical way out for himself. And such a person Cao Cao knows very well that there are many under his command, if Cao Cao really dares to pursue Lu Ren's order, believe it or not, Cao Cao's own family will immediately be in chaos. Why did Cao Cao burn those letters in his original history? The reason for this, how can Lu Ren, a traverser, not know?

It should be said that there is nothing wrong with Lu Ren's thoughts and practices, but Lu Ren may still think something wrong. For example, now, after reading the letter, Guo Jia secretly shook his head and said: "You kid, you are very smart when you are smart, but you are also very confused when you are confused." Do you think you're just an ordinary staff member in the eyes of your lord?

"If it were at another time, it would have been nothing if you had left, but it was so coincidental. You have to be in the time when the lord and Yuan Shao are about to fight...... If such a letter is seen by the lord, how can you live? Stinky little boy, stinky boy, have you ever known how many words I have said to help you exculpate you in front of the lord? ”

Frowning and thinking for a long time, Guo Jia finally shook his head and threw Lu Ren's reply letter into the brazier with a sigh. Looking at the snow paper turning into black snowflakes in the flames, Guo Jia muttered, "Otherwise, let's see what the lord thinks of this matter first." Maybe things will turn around, and I won't have to use that trick on you. Stinky boy, I really treat you like a brother......"

————————————————————

Xuchang Cao Mansion, Council Chamber.

Cao Cao is discussing with Er Xun and Cheng Yu at the moment. And when Guo Jia walked into the hall, Cao Cao beckoned to Guo Jia and smiled: "Why is Fengxiao too late?" Didn't you drink a few more glasses in the green fruit wine shop? ”

Guo Jia smiled, bowed his hand and sat down in the banquet after making amends: "My lord, forgive me!" When Jia was summoned, he was indeed sitting opposite Lu Yihao in the Qingguo Wine Shop. With him, Jia doesn't have to pay for drinking in the Qingguo Wine Shop. ”

Everyone laughed. After laughing, Cao Cao said: "Lu Yihao is going to go to Zhutun to patrol again?" He's a little busier than Lonely, so I don't know how he's doing? I heard that he went to inspect the spring ploughing and mulberry farming in Zhuxian County this time, and took Cai Wenji and Wan'er with him. He was still a little worried that he would take his two beauties with him, who had always had the idea of resigning and going into hiding, and suddenly he would never return them and drift away. ”

Everyone laughed a few more times, but Guo Jia didn't laugh together, but frowned a little helplessly and sighed softly. After hesitating for a while, Guo Jiacai shook his head lightly at Cao Cao as if he had made up his mind: "Don't laugh, don't laugh, this kid is now determined to go, and he can't stay!" ”

Why did Guo Jia hesitate for so long? In fact, the ladies of that era all paid attention to "loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness", and this word "loyalty" was the first of morality and ethics, and the real ladies were more important than anything else, and people like Guo Jia would naturally not be an exception. Therefore, when Guo Jia had already determined that Lu Ren was going to leave, he really didn't want to hide anything from Cao Cao after weighing it in his heart, so after hesitating for a long time, Guo Jia finally decided to tell Cao Cao Ming about it.

In fact, this situation is very similar to the relationship between Cao Cao, Guan Yu, and Zhang Liao in the original history, that is, "Liao wants Bai Taizu (Cao Cao) (Yu will eventually go), and I am afraid that Taizu will kill Yu; It is not in vain, it is not the way of the king, but sighs: 'Father, the monarch is also (loyal); Feather, brother ear (righteous). 'Then he was white. ”

Without going far, I saw Cao Cao's face change slightly after hearing the words and asked, "What?" Lu Yihao has made up his mind? ”

Guo Jia nodded and roughly repeated what Lu Ren said in the Qingguo Wine Shop...... In fact, Cao Cao knew, but now that Er Xun and Cheng Yu were present, it was better to talk about it. And after finishing speaking, Guo Jia sighed lightly: "My lord, Rong Jia said a few nonsense, Jia has always been unable to see through the ability and talent of this kid, so it is difficult for Jia to know the truth of this life-replenishing life."

"But with his heart, since he has already decided to leave, no one can force him to stay. Jia Su knows that the lord loves Yihao's talent very much, so he will definitely not give up Yihao's go, Jia has the courage to speak, and hopes that the lord can see the many achievements of Yihao in the past and Jiazhi's thin face, and also believe in Yihao's life and longevity, and let him leave safely. ”

Cao Cao's face became a little cloudy, and he pondered for a long time before he said, "Then when will Yihao go?" ”

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. He still has clan members in Xudu to be safe, and there are many other miscellaneous things. And with his nature, until he has dealt with these many miscellaneous things, he will not leave for the time being because of the uneasiness in his heart. ”

Cao Cao's brows furrowed a little more: "If he is determined to leave, he is going to prolong his life, and it is inconvenient for him to stay." It's just that if he leaves at this time, then who will be able to follow up on the many new techniques he has established to enrich the country? ”

Xun Yu next to him pondered for a while, and suddenly continued: "No wonder as soon as he came back from Xuzhou, he continued to hand over some newly written classics to the next one, and if there is anything unclear, it is enough to watch the books." He also said that if he is not there and the book is not included, he can directly inquire Cai Wenji, who sorted out the classics for him. Now it seems. When he returned from Xuzhou, he already knew that his life would not last long, so he started to do everything behind him. ”

Cao Cao's face changed for a while before he sighed: "Pity, pity! Such a rare talent in the world, but at that time, he would die for fifteen years in order to break through the next Pi quickly. If he has this fifteen-year life, it will be a blessing for the people of the world to teach the people! That's it, there is nothing to be done about it, and when he will do it, Lone can only let him go. As for his clan family. The orphan will take care of him for his good life...... Speaking of Yihao, he has made great contributions, but to this day, he has not won the knighthood and the second has not been eaten, and he is ashamed in his lonely heart! Wen Ruo, what kind of title do you think should be given to Yihao, and where is the food? ”

Xun Yu stroked his beard and groaned: "Lu Yihao has been in office since he came out. Wen has the merit of rejuvenating the people and rejuvenating the peasants, and the martial arts have the achievements of sacrificing themselves to break the city, if the merits before and after are recorded, it is not an exaggeration to eat 500 (households). Again. Lu Yihao's tributary of the Lu clan of Wu has settled in Meng Village, how about the lord demarcate the boundary of Meng Village as Lu Yihao's food town? ”

Five hundred, according to the Han system, it is not much. However, Cao Cao's head is because of the war. Very few people have access to more than 1,000 households. In the early days, even Zhang Xiu was able to get more than 1,000 households because of his special circumstances. Therefore, the 500 households in Lu Ren were already very large and heavy at that time. Moreover, it is not an exaggeration to assign the Meng Village that Lu Ren single-handedly made to Lu Ren, and it is not an exaggeration to directly assign the food of a township to Lu Ren under the circumstances at that time, because the productivity of Meng Village can be compared to an ordinary township at that time.

The Han system Fangyuan is ten miles for a pavilion, ten pavilions for a township, and ten townships for a county, so the township is actually one-tenth of a county, and there are not many places in the real world, but it is much stronger than the pavilion. In addition, when Cao Cao controlled the government, he set up a lot of new titles, such as the Guan Nei Hou that is often mentioned, but this kind of title is just a virtual lord with a lord and no Yi, and the real Jue with a food yi will be given to the food yi, like the Hanshou Pavilion of Guan Yu, which everyone is more familiar with, the real reading should be Hanshou. Tinghou, Hanshou is a place name, located in Shuzhong Brazil. Cao Cao's Wu Pinghou is also like this. However, although Lu Ren's food is at the level of a township, if there is no accident, the title can only be a pavilion, such as the Han Dynasty. Moe Pavilion Waiting. (ahem...... It's a bit of a spoof. ）

Looking at Cao Cao again, he closed his eyes and muttered: "It's a pity that although Lu Yihao is about to be thirty years old, he still has no heirs. That's it! If he goes, his wife Cai Wenji is still alive, so Cai Wenji can inherit the food and enough food to support the elderly. If Wen Ji was pregnant before Yihao left, the man would inherit his father's lordship, and the woman would choose someone from Lu Yihao's clan after Wen Ji died and her daughter got married. In this way, he will live up to the promise of treating Yihao's family members alone. Well? Does Lu Yihao have two younger brothers? ”

Xun Yu said: "Yihao's second brother Lu Cheng, the word is good, seventeen years old; The third brother, Lu Xin, is true and fifteen years old. Although these two sons were adopted by Lu Ren and came from a poor background, and they were young, they were both literate and martial, and they were all talents that could be created. Previously, Yihao also recommended these two sons to the next, and I believe that after a little practice, they can be used. ”

Cao Cao nodded: "If things don't go wrong, you can let these two sons share Yihao's food, and it seems that it is quite lonely to take advantage of it, so you can do it." Alas, when I heard that I was going to lose a talent, I was a little depressed in my heart, and I had no intention of discussing things at the moment. The princes are scattered, and they will come to the house tomorrow to discuss matters. (To be continued......)
