There was nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace, Xun Yu and Guo Jia suddenly came to the door, which made Deng Ji feel worried.

He didn't know what the purpose of these two men was, but he had a vague sense that they were tempting. What can be tempted? Why temptation? Deng Ji couldn't guess. He was not a wise person in the first place, and in the face of such an unexpected situation, he was naturally a little flustered.

"Mr. is talented, how can Deng Ji be virtuous, he can't afford to be treated so favorably by the Lord in the Waiting."

Deng Ji was born in poverty, although he is a member of the Deng Village clan in Nanyang, he is only a side branch. Xun Yu was born in the Yingchuan clan, has a prominent identity since he was a child, has outstanding talents, has the talent of Wang Zuozhi, and is a famous person today. If you are born according to the theory of the nine-grade Zhongzheng system in the Wei and Jin dynasties, Deng Ji is definitely below the fourth grade, and may even be the fifth or sixth grade; As for Xun Yu, he was born in a real class, and the two are very different.

Xun Yu smiled: "Mr. Deng is not polite, dare to ask Mr., what books have you learned?" ”

This is to ask the teacher for the foundation!

Deng Ji didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly replied: "I learned it in the next year." ”

"Oh?" Xun Yu and Guo Jia glanced at each other and secretly bowed their heads.

Xiao Du Lu is one of the famous eleven heroes of the Qilin Pavilion during the Western Han Dynasty, and Du Yannian explained the Han law. Du Yannian was the youngest son of Du Zhou, the imperial historian of Emperor Wu. And Du Zhou was also a well-known cool official at that time, and he also compiled Han law. In order to distinguish the father and son, the Han law compiled by Du Zhou was called the Great Du Law, and the Han Law compiled by Du Yannian was also the Little Du Law.

Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, it is mostly based on Xiaodulu, and it continues to this day.

Guo Jia asked, "Which room did Mr. Xiao Dulu learn?" ”

The small Dulu lasted for 200 years, and naturally derived many changes. For example, Wu Ping, the court commander of Emperor Shun, studied Xiao Dulu in the third generation; During the Yongping period, Guo Gong was also famous for teaching Xiao Dulu, and his father was out of prison for 30 years, and there were hundreds of disciples...... When there are more people studying this, there will naturally be disagreements.

There are Wumen Dulu, Guo's Dulu and other sayings, and there have always been disputes between them.

Deng Ji scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "I learned Zhongsun Hanlu in the next year." ”

Guo Jia couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

The so-called Zhongsun Han Law is the small Du Law cultivated by Guo Gong. Guo bow, the word Zhongsun, Yingchuan people.

Xun Yu couldn't help but look at Guo Jia and said with a smile: "Fengxiao, I never thought that you, a child of the Guo family, would abandon Xiao Dulu and not read, but be valued by others. ”

Deng Ji was stunned, "Guo Saijiu, isn't it the son of the East China Sea?" ”

Donghai Gong refers to Guo Hong, Guo Gong's father. It is said that Guo Hong has been out of prison for 30 years, and there has not been a single unjust, false and wrongful case, and he has been referred to in the name of the East China Sea, so he has the honorific title of the East China Sea. In the third year of Yuanhe, he revised the 41st article of the law and changed the heavy sentence to a light sentence, advocating that the verdict should be lenient and lenient, which was praised by the world.

Guo Jia's face turned red, and he said abruptly: "Although Jia is a disciple of the Guo family, he has not studied the criminal law. ”

When Deng Ji heard this, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Guo Hong and Guo bowed to hundreds of disciples of his father and son, and what Deng Ji learned was just one of these hundreds of people. It can be said that it is very different from the original Zhongsun Hanlu, so I have always wanted to study it seriously. But Deng Ji also knows that Guo Jia does not study criminal law, which is understandable. After all, he was born in a big family, and the law was corrupted in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and few people from the family came into contact with this.

Deng Ji's study of criminal law is also a last resort.

He had no access to advanced learning, and had to study the law in order to earn a living.

Xun Yu smiled and said: "In this way, Mr. and Fengxiao still have the friendship of the same family." "Don't deserve, don't ......"

Deng Ji, again and again, polite.

"Don't call me sir again. Deng Ji's cousin uncle and grandson, adults can call me words. ”

"That's it, then you're welcome!" Xun Yu groaned and glanced at Guo Jia. Guo Jia nodded and said, "Uncle Sun Xian, Wen Ruo and I came here today, and we really have something to ask for." Presumably, Uncle Sun Xiandi also knows that in the land where Yuan Shao leads Heshuo today, the world is afraid of it. Although Lord Sikong is based on Yu and Yandi, there is Lu Bu in the east and Zhang Xiu in the south, so he is inevitably a little embarrassed. These days, Lord Sikong is moving in and out of order, and everyone thinks that it is because of the defeat to Zhang Xiu. I inquired yesterday, and I found out that it was because of a letter from Yuan Shao...... Lord Sikong wanted to crusade against Yuan Benchu, but he was worried that he would not be able to fight the enemy, so he ......"

"Brother Xian, what do you think?"

Xun Yu's eyes were burning and he stared at Deng Ji.

Deng Ji knew that this was perhaps the most important opportunity in his life.

Previously, although there was a full favor value, but the full favor was a foreign minister after all. In terms of weight, it is far less than the two men in front of him.

Although it is not clear why Xun Yu and Guo Jia came to test him, there is a little more excitement in their hearts.

Deng Ji took a deep breath, calmed down, and said after thinking for a while: "In ancient times, success or failure ultimately depended on their talents, so those with talent could eventually defeat the strong with the weak, while those without talent changed from strong to weak. This example of Gaozu and the overlord of Western Chu is enough to illustrate the problem...... Yuan Shao is a person who is wide on the outside and taboo on the inside, plotting more and making fewer decisions, and the decree is not established.

Although it is strong, it is difficult to last. You don't see the rock standing in the turbulence, let the torrent act, and stand still. Although the dripping water is weak, the dripping stone wears through the ...... Today, Cao Gong is dripping water, and Yuan Shao is like turbulence. Turbulence is inexorable, but dripping water can pierce boulders. If Cao Gong wants to conquer Yuan Shao, he needs to go slowly. If the tiger is not removed, Zhang Xiu is uncertain, and he competes with Yuan Shao, and it is inevitable that the rear will not be appeased, which is not a safe strategy. ”

A smile suddenly appeared on Xun Yu's face.

He and Guo Jia glanced at each other, and at the same time got up and arched his hand: "When I heard my uncle and grandson's words today, my mouth suddenly opened." ”

Deng Ji hurriedly got up and returned the salute, blushing slightly...... To be honest, he really didn't know the situation between Yuan Cao. And with his ability, it's hard to see the clues. Fortunately, when Cao Peng defected to him, Deng Ji heard Wang Meng say that Cao Peng had talked about the general trend of the world with Sima Hui and Pang Ji, so he also inquired.

Cao Peng repeated the 'ten wins and ten defeats' at the time.

Deng Ji was quite impressed.

It's just that when Xun Yu asked him just now, he really couldn't remember the specific content of the ten wins and ten defeats.

Fortunately, Deng Ji also has his own understanding of ten wins and ten defeats, so after a moment of pondering, he had Fang Cai's words.

Xun Yu said: "This pass is unstable, and Qiang Hu and Liu Jiyu are threatening from time to time.

Lord Sikong occupies Yu and Yan, but it is difficult to stabilize Guanzhong. Dare to ask Uncle Sun Xiandi, what is your opinion on this? ”

If Guo Jia's previous inquiry is the general trend; So what Xun Yu is asking now is the details.

Deng Ji pondered for a long time, "There are countless generals in Guanzhong, but they are not unified with each other. In fact, if you want to stabilize Guanzhong, it is not difficult. First, Li Dao and Guo Yan must be eradicated as soon as possible; Second, to send people to be gentle and reconcile with the strong. In this way, although it cannot be stable for a long time, it can make them check and balance each other and maintain neutrality. However, to do this, there needs to be a suitable person, and it is difficult to say the right person if you are shallow in the next practice. ”

Xun Yu's eyes narrowed, and he remained silent.

After he and Guo Jia glanced at each other, they nodded, suddenly stood up, and arched their hands: "Today, I took the liberty to disturb and delay a lot of things for my uncle and grandson." Feng Xiao and I said goodbye first, and when we have time, my uncle and grandson might as well come to our side and walk around, and be closer to each other. ”

Guo Jia also said: "Yes, although I have not studied criminal law, my ancestors have left a file.

If my uncle or grandson is interested, I will go back and send those files over...... Hehe, we are also considered to be the same door, and we should move around more in the future. ”

Deng Ji was overjoyed and thanked him.

Xun Yu and Guo Jia walked out of the Huben Mansion side by side, but did not go to the Cheqi Mansion.

The two talked in a low voice as they walked.

"Wen Ruo, how is Deng Ji?"

"There is knowledge, and there is talent." Xun Yu replied: "What he said is consistent with your and mine's opinions, and it is worth recommending." However, after all, he is from Nanyang County, so it is best to observe it again. Why don't you ask someone to go to Jianyang to inquire? ”

"It's so good, although this person is not Wang Zuozhi's talent, but he has the ability to change...... I just remembered that some time ago, in the Langling Rebellion, Manbening sent a western superintendent Cao Peng to easily solve the matter. The western superintendent Cao Peng seems to be called Deng Ji. ”

"Oh?"

"For this matter, Xun Ji also sent someone over to inquire, and Gongda also asked me once, but I didn't care at the time."

Xun Yu rubbed his cheeks gently, "In this way, this Uncle Deng does have real skills." ”

"Well, but as you say, let's take a look at it again."

———————————————————————————————————— Xun Yu and Guo Jia's sudden visit really made Deng Ji nervous for a while.

He didn't know if what he was dealing with was in line with Xun Yu and Guo Jia's thoughts. With apprehension, he waited for two days, but in these two days, Xun Yu did not appear again. However, Guo Jia did what he said, and sent people to send a lot of files and documents left by Guo Gong back then. Deng Ji was a little disappointed in his heart, but soon, he was attracted by those files and documents, and left the matter behind.

As for Cao Peng, he is not too clear about this matter.

Deng Ji is a very careful person, Xun Yu and Guo Jia arrived, and he didn't want to tell others until he figured out their intentions.

Cao Peng himself is in big trouble.

After the failure of the battle, Dianman seems to have a bull's temper.

I came to Wubao early in the morning, first to watch Cao Ji make knives, and then to pull Cao Peng into battle.

At the beginning, Dianman was basically a hard bridge and a hard horse, and it often didn't last long before he was smashed and his nose and face were swollen...... But with Dianman's familiarity with the sand formation, and after he secretly observed Cao Peng and others' methods of breaking into the formation, he figured out some doorways.

After three days of fighting, the pawn can last until the time of a cup of tea.

After all, there is a foundation for the inheritance of family education, and with his heart, he quickly caught up with Wang Mai and Deng Fan. Although it is not up to Cao Peng's level of weightlifting, it is indeed a lot of progress. His kung fu is not bad, and after practicing sandbags for a while, his body shape and footwork are much more flexible than before. As soon as this effect came out, the interest of Dianman naturally increased.

At the same time, Cao Ji's name is getting louder and louder in Xudu City.

Under the secret work of Cao Peng, the mastermind behind the scenes, there are many versions of Cao Ji circulating on the market. Some say that he is the son of the Mo family, and some say that he is the queen of the master of the famous craftsman...... There are even rumors that Cao Ji knows the magic of immortals and has obtained the secret method of immortals, so it is easy to make a knife. All kinds of rumors intensified, so that later, they became out of control and spread from Xudu to the outside world.

Even Cao Ying began to pay attention to this matter.

However, he didn't ask Dian Wei, he just wanted to see what the final outcome of this matter would be...... In this way, before you know it, the time has entered the middle of summer.

As spring turns to summer, the weather gradually gets hotter. The scorching sun shines on people who are uncomfortable. Even sitting in the shade makes you feel like you're in a fireplace.

In May of the second year of Jian'an, Liu Biao sent his troops to Deng Ji to attack Langling.

Langling Changxun rushed to the battle, accidentally ambushed by Deng Ji, and died at the foot of the mountain.

When the news came to Xu Du, Cao Ying was extremely angry. He originally planned to conquer Lu Bu, but because of this incident, he had to change his plan.

In mid-May, Cao Ying ordered Runan County to guard the full favor and garrison the mountain.

Then he personally supervised the army, took Manzhong as the vanguard, forced into Nanyang County, and broke through Fuyang in ten days. After Deng Ji's victory in Langling, he couldn't help but get a little carried away. But soon, he was defeated by the full favor, returned in embarrassment, and finally retreated to Huyang County, strictly guarding against death...... Cao Ying broke into Nanyang, which was like declaring war with Liu Biao!

Liu Biao was furious, but because Cao Ying sent troops strongly this time, he had to be cautious......—————————————————————— "Ah Fu!" ”

Early in the morning, Dian Man came to Wubao and found Cao Peng.

After more than a month of contact, Dianman felt a little more affectionate towards Cao Peng. At first, he looked down on Cao Peng a little, thinking that Cao Peng was not as powerful as his father Dian Wei said. But as time went by, he and Cao Peng had been in contact for a long time, and gradually changed his attitude. Don't look at Cao Peng's young age, and he is thinner than him. But there are many more things to know than to be full of them.

In addition, Deng Ji and Guo Jia moved around a few times, which made Dian Wei value this family even more.

Dian Man, for Cao Peng, began to admire a little bit...... Cao Peng had just finished his morning exercise and was about to go to the iron furnace to help.

"Aman, what's the matter?"

"Can you help me?"

Dian Man no longer minded Cao Peng calling him by his nickname, and looked at him with some pleading.

Cao Pengqi said: "Help you? What happened to you? ”

"Alas...... It's still my dad! Dian Man sighed, "You also know that this time the lord sent troops to Nanyang, but he didn't take my father, but chose Xu Chu." My father was not very happy these two days, and always said that the lord didn't trust him anymore, and he didn't take him with him when he sent troops. Get drunk at home...... I saw that he was depressed, but I didn't know how to persuade him. You're smarter than me, help me figure it out? ”

When Cao Peng heard this, he was suddenly surprised!

This time, Cao Ying went to Huyang County, and did not take Dian Wei with him, but chose Xu Chu.

So Dian Wei was a little awkward, as soon as the cow's temper came up, he got into the tip of the horns, and he couldn't turn a corner.

Cao Peng thought about it, then nodded and agreed: "I also plan to go to the city." I haven't seen my uncle yet, so I can pay a visit. ”

"Go together, go together!"

When Wang Mai heard that Cao Peng was going out, he was immediately interested.

"...... Go back to practice! Cao Peng said angrily: "If you can't stick to a stick of incense in the sand formation, don't want to go out." ”

"Huh?"

Wang Mai suddenly made a bitter face.

"Ah Fu, I haven't been out for almost forty days, let me go out."

"Don't even think about it!" Cao Peng said, shouting at Xiahou Lan: "Xiahou, keep an eye on him, if you dare to sneak out, be careful that I clean you up!" ”

Wang Mai had a bitter face and had no choice but to give up.

Cao Peng changed into a white robe and walked out of the dock fort with Dianman.

The two got on their horses and went straight to Xudu. After a while, they arrived outside the city of Xudu...... Dian Man is also a celebrity in Xudu, so the doorman did not stop him. The two soon came to the gate of the Huben Mansion, but saw Deng Ji wearing a green shirt and walking out of the mansion.

"Brother-in-law, are you going out?"

Deng Ji smiled, "Ah Fu, why are you here?" I made an appointment with a friend and was about to go out. ”

"Is Uncle Dian's home?"

Deng Ji rubbed his nose, "Practice martial arts in the school field." I'm in a good situation today, and I didn't drink when I woke up in the morning...... You've come just in time, go see him. ”

Cao Peng didn't ask Deng Ji where he was going, arched his hand, and walked into the mansion with Dianman.

Unlike more than a month ago, when the Tiger Mansion was deserted, now this mansion is a little more interesting, and the number of servants and maids has increased a lot.

Dianman took Cao Peng all the way to the school.

As soon as I walked to the gate of the school field, I heard the wind howling in the school field, and the sound of tiger roaring from time to time.

Dian Wei was shirtless, revealing a swarthy, steel-cast tendon flesh. A pair of twin iron halberds flew up and down in his hands, opening the bow left and right.

Cao Peng and Dianman stood at the gate of the school and did not go inside.

People like Dian Wei are safer to stay away from martial arts when they practice martial arts.

Dian Wei's double iron halberd makes it indeed beautiful, and after years of fighting, his tricks contain a strong murderous aura, which makes people dare not approach.

Even if he was full of men, he was used to seeing Dian Wei practicing martial arts, but his face was blue because of the murderous aura.

On the contrary, Cao Peng watched it with relish, and seemed to be completely unaffected by the murderous aura. Seeing this, the pawn is a little more admired!

"Good!"

Dian Wei put away his halberd and stood up, and Cao Peng immediately applauded.

"Ah Fu, why are you here?"

Cao Peng smiled: "I haven't seen my uncle for a long time, and I miss it in my heart." I happened to be in the city today to run errands, so I came to visit. ”

"Hahaha, you kid, you can talk." Dian Wei smiled heartily, looking at Dian Man's blue face, and then became gloomy again.

Dianman's martial arts are indeed not bad, they have reached the peak of Yi Gu, and they may break through the bottleneck at any time.

But after all, it grows in a greenhouse, which is not as good as Dian Wei's back then, chasing tigers across streams and drifting in all directions. I haven't been on the battlefield, I haven't experienced battlefield fighting, no matter how good my martial arts are, it's useless.

"Aman, why has it been so long, and it still looks like he hasn't grown."

Noriman lowered his head and did not speak.

For Dian Wei, he has always been a little afraid...... Cao Peng smiled: "Uncle, don't blame Brother Aman. He has grown a lot now, and the time he can support a stick of incense in the sand formation is just less experience. ”

"Humph!"

Dian Wei's face softened, "Ah Fu, what do you want to buy when you enter the city?" ”

"Hehe, buy some herbs."

"Herbs? Are you sick? ”

Cao Peng hurriedly shook his head, "It's not that I'm sick, but I'm preparing for practice...... Uncle, I heard Brother Aman say, you have been drinking every day lately, are you in a bad mood? ”

Dian Wei was stunned, and then glared at Dian Man viciously.

"Uncle, don't blame Brother Aman, he cares about you...... If you are someone else, do you think he cares? ”

This sentence made Dian Wei's heart warm, and when he saw Dian Man's gaze, he softened a lot.

He wiped the sweat from his body, sat down in a small pavilion in the school grounds, and sighed softly.

"Ah Fu, you comment, since I followed the lord, conquered Xuzhou, attacked Puyang, and fought nearly a hundred battles, big and small, the lord will take me. But this time, he only brought Xu Chu over. I just can't figure it out, why don't you take me, that stupid tiger? ”

Cao Peng also sat down in the gazebo, thought about it, and suddenly smiled.

"Uncle, what is your official position now?"

Dian Wei glanced at Cao Peng in astonishment, "You kid, ask knowingly." Tiger Ben Zhonglang General. ”

"Then what Cao Bus gave you, have you done it?"

"What's the matter?"

Cao Peng patted his head helplessly, "Uncle, you are the general of the Tiger Ben, of course you are forming the Tiger Ben Army!" I guess you've got all the manpower, have you ever trained? Possibly in battle? ”

Dian Wei glared and said loudly: "My tiger army is full of good men, which one is not a knife to kill?" ”

"Murder is murder, and training is training...... Could it be that when you go to the battlefield, you want your troops to rush up and fight? ”

"This ......"

"Uncle, this army is not so simple. It is not only necessary to be brave and brave, but also to know how to order and prohibit, and how to advance and retreat. When attacking, move forward bravely; When retreating, the formation is not chaotic. When guarding the palace, it is impregnable...... Have you ever noticed this? ”

"This ......"

"Uncle, the lord didn't take you there, because he hoped that you could play the tiger army well. He doesn't snub you, but values you more than before! ”

When Dian Wei heard this, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought...... After a long time, he suddenly raised his head and asked softly, "Ah Fu, then you give me an idea, how should I train my troops?" ”

(To be continued)
