Chapter 062: Straight Road

"You're not a scholar?" Wen Hui was annoyed and ashamed, and sneered at each other.

"I read, but I don't die." Liu Xiu laughed and said without modesty: "If I enter the court, you see how I deal with those eunuchs." Cleaned up by them? It's a joke, if you can't even deal with a few mutilated eunuchs, then what's the point of reading this book? ”

Wen Hui squinted at him for a long time, and suddenly laughed: "If it weren't for the fact that you are now a student of Lu Jun and have no worries about your career, I really want to suggest that my father appoint you as a superior official and send you to Luoyang to deal with those eunuchs, and see how you can remove the residue and dirt for the big man." ”

"Hehe, you don't have to say that, I don't have a chance now, as long as I have a chance, I will definitely give you a surprise."

Wen Hui sneered: "I'll wait and see." After saying that, he got up and arched his hand and walked away.

Liu Bei, who was laughing with the beautiful maid outside, saw Wen Hui leave angrily, and didn't know what happened, so he went back to the house and asked Liu Xiu, and Liu Xiu told the incident just now. Liu Bei blinked, and suddenly said: "Actually, even if you don't need to be a planner, there are still ways for Lord Taishou to send you to the court, such as promoting you to filial piety, Maocai or something, it's just ...... Big brother, can you really deal with those eunuchs? ”

"Regardless of whether I can deal with the eunuch or not, as long as he is willing to recommend me, I will at least have an official to do, right?" Liu Xiu blinked his eyes and smiled. When Liu Bei heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "It turns out that you came up with this idea, I thought you really had some clever means." ”

Liu Xiu didn't argue, he wasn't completely deceiving Wen Hui, he didn't deal with the wicked in his previous life, although the price paid was indeed not small, but the brick family that had been rampant in the industry for decades ended up even worse, and as a result of being ruined and ruined, the old guy must have only half a life left if he didn't die.

Liu Xiu insisted that a gentleman who can't deal with villains is not a gentleman worth emulating, and that he is more kind to good people and more evil to evil people, which has always been his code of conduct. The ability to uphold justice and uphold justice is the motivation to support him to pay unimaginable hardships.

He is not a wicked man, but he is by no means a pedantic and incompetent gentleman, or rather, he is not a gentleman at all, because he does not pay attention to forgiveness, he speaks straight: if people do not offend me, I will not offend others, and if people offend me, I will offend others.

Zhang Fei ran over from the front and asked from afar, "Sir, what did you say to Wen Hui?" His face was not good. ”

"It's nothing, it's just a little divisive." Liu Xiu suddenly remembered something, called Liu Bei and Zhang Fei and said: "I invited Brother Yan Rou to come today, I want to learn some about the situation on the grassland from them, he has stayed on the grassland with so many people, there are many situations that we usually can't understand at all, you can't just listen to it as a story, you must pay attention to the memory, it is best to write it out when the time comes, organize it into an article, and give it to Lu Jun for reference when the time comes." ”

Liu Bei and Zhang Fei looked at each other and felt that he was a little too cautious, but after thinking about it, they felt that it made sense, so they nodded in response.

"And that's not all." Liu Xiu's mind was opened, and he continued: "Yide, you can get me some more paper." ”

Zhang Fei's eyes suddenly lit up: "Mr. wants to teach me calligraphy or painting skills?" ”

"Phew!" Liu Xiu took a sip at him, and rolled his eyes: "Are you still in this mood at this time?" I want to draw up some outlines, so that they can be targeted at that time, and we don't want to be unsystematic. Since you invite him to eat and drink, you have to dig up more things to get it out. ”

Zhang Fei rolled his eyes, pursed his mouth, and muttered in a low voice: "You are really good enough to pick the door, and you have to get the capital back if you invite someone to have a drink." ”

"What did you say?" Liu Xiu frowned.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Zhang Fei turned around and left, shouting as he walked: "I'll go and bring a roll of paper and let you write slowly." ”

Liu Xiu looked at him inexplicably, and then turned to Liu Bei: "What did he just say?" ”

Liu Beiqiang couldn't help but laugh and shook his head again and again: "No, he didn't say anything." ”

"And!"

Zhang Fei quickly asked people to move a stack of paper, Liu Bei had already sharpened the ink, Liu Xiu picked up the pen in his hand, and began to write the questions he was going to ask Yan Rou one by one, from the tribal leaders and populations on the grassland to the mountains and rivers, anyway, everything he could think of was written, and the beautiful lines were written on two large sheets of paper. He was afraid that he would not be able to remember it alone, and he would be embarrassed to ask too many questions alone, so he assigned Liu Bei and Zhang Fei tasks and asked each of them to ask a part, and when the time came, he was responsible for recalling these contents and forming words. Zhang Fei and Liu Bei had bitter faces, and began to recite the topic helplessly.

Liu Xiu's efforts were not in vain, when night fell, Zhang Fei's fox friends and dog friends came one by one, and Liu Xiu took Liu Bei to the post pavilion to invite the Yan Rou brothers. Those young children who were dancing with their eyebrows and elated in the cold were suddenly excited when they heard that this was a big horse thief who was rampaging across the grassland. Youzhou people have a bold surname, and these young people are worshipping heroes and eager to take risks, not only did they not reject Yan Rou's identity as a horse thief, but on the contrary, they added a little curiosity, asking questions around them, and rushing forward to toast. If Liu Xiu wasn't afraid that they would get Yan Rou drunk and affect the business, I'm afraid that there would really be few people who could stand in the end.

After the wine was almost drunk, it was time for Yan Rou to perform, he first talked about the general situation on the grassland, and especially explained the legendary story of the Xianbei king Tanshi Huai who unified the grassland, which caused those young people to be enthusiastic, some of them scolded and scolded, clamoring to cut off the head of Tanshi Huai as a drowning weapon, to avenge the people who have been harmed by the Xianbei people in the two states over the years, and some are sympathetic, eager to one day fight against such a character, compete with each other, and make immortal achievements.

Among these energetic peers, Liu Xiu seemed a little indifferent, he had no obvious excitement, no anger, and he didn't even speak loudly, he just listened to Yan Rou attentively, put forward his questions in key places, and asked Yan Rou to speak more carefully and deeply.

As soon as a few questions were asked, Yan Rou's eyes changed significantly, he simply sat next to Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu asked a question, he answered a question, some of them couldn't make up their minds, and they also referred to Yan Zhi's opinion, and the whole drinking party became a question and answer between him and Liu Xiu.

The young people gathered around and watched curiously as Liu Xiu asked as he sketched on the paper. Some secretly pouted, thinking that Liu Xiu was a little bookish, bragging when drinking, and actually took out a pen and paper to record, which was a little pedantic, and some were surprised by Liu Xiu's beautiful calligraphy, and secretly asked Zhang Fei if he could also follow the study, making Zhang Fei's eyebrows tremble and his chest stand tall.

Only a few people listened carefully to Liu Xiu and Yan Rou's questions and answers, and occasionally interjected a sentence or two, one of them was Liu Yu's son Liu He, and the other was Li Ding's son Li Cheng. Liu He and Li Cheng usually had nothing to do with Zhang Fei, although they received Zhang Fei's invitation, they didn't plan to come at all, and then Wen Hui was said a few words by Liu Xiu, and he was unhappy for a while, and walked away, and then he regretted it but couldn't wipe his face, so he let people notify them and let them come and listen to what Yan Rou would say.

The two of them have not spoken, and the identity of these young people during the banquet is too far from them, and they are only respectful to them, and they boldly stepped forward to chat a few words, but they were blocked by their seemingly gentle, but in fact they refused to be reserved thousands of miles away, so they had to retreat in a sneer, and only the two of them were there talking in a low voice, which seemed particularly unsociable.

It wasn't until Liu Xiu took out a pen and paper that he began to ask Yan Rou questions.
