The courtyard is winding and quiet, Qin Mi walked through the courtyard, stepped on the path beside the lush woods, and heard Guo Jia's hearty laughter and Xun Yu's hearty laughter from a distance.

He should have been puzzled in his heart, Guo Jia and Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu, in their different camp environments, the exchange of courtesies and gifts may also stop at the point, laughing and chatting like in front of him, it seems that they have forgotten their respective identities.

But Qin Mi was relieved in an instant, his lord was an alternative who acted unexpectedly, and he could have such a bond with Xun Yu that outsiders couldn't understand, which was in line with Guo Jia's consistent style.

Qin Mi came to the outside of the pavilion, and after giving a salute to the three of them, he was silent, his appearance was enough to explain his intention, and he didn't need to bother to talk about it.

It's time for Guo Jia to go back to Chengdu.

stayed in Mount Emei for three days, if it was in the past, Chengdu had opera Zhicai in charge, Qin Mi would naturally not come to disturb Guo Jia's Yaxing, but now Chengdu obviously needs Guo Jia to suppress the formation, and the accumulated official affairs must be dealt with as soon as possible without delay.

The three of them who talked happily were still unsatisfied, but Guo Jia still sighed: "Wen Ruo, I am reunited with you after a long absence, and I have to say goodbye before I finish reminiscing, alas, this troubled world ......"

Xun Yu smiled freely, looked at Guo Jia's sentimental expression, and said meaningfully: "Eh, Fengxiao's words are wrong, if there is no troubled world, I am afraid that the three of you and I will die without a problem." It is because of the troubled times, just at the very time, the emergence of countless extraordinary people, although the prosperous times are good, but many blind followers of the people, although the troubled times are dangerous, but there is the insight of the master who needs to be able to be talented, life in the world, can show their strengths, and there is no end to the end of depression, which is the luck of my generation. ”

Xi Zhicai nodded frequently, and said calmly: "What Wen Ruo said is very much in line with my heart, heroes are born in troubled times, the world is in chaos, and it is the people who suffer. ”

Xun Yu smiled and shook his head, and said: "Why should Zhicai be arrogant, there is a specialization in the art industry, since ancient times, the combination of civil and military forces can calm the chaos and rule the world, and the achievements of filial piety are said to be yours." ”

In front of Guo Jia, Xun Yu did not shy away from taboos.

Anyway, Guo Jia doesn't care, these are the truth, the three of them never hide their chat, even if Guo Jia used to satirize Xun Yu's corpse vegetarian meal in front of Xun Yu when he was young, he didn't care what Xun Yu would think when he heard it, smart people would not sit down by themselves, they all knew themselves.

"It's not too early, Zhicai, Wen Ruo and I will leave now, you can recuperate in the Heavenly Master Palace, when Zuo Ci tells me that you are in good health, I will open the door of Chengdu to greet you."

This issue is not negotiable, Guo Jia would rather share more of Xi Zhicai's original work by himself, and does not want Xi Zhicai to return to Chengdu when his body has not fully recovered.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is Qin Ziyun, right?"

Xun Yu set his eyes on Qin Mi before parting.

Qin Mi has been very famous in Yizhou since he was a child, and Xun Yu has occasionally heard of it but has never met him.

At the banquet in Guo Jia's mansion, Xun Yu and Qin Mi had a face-to-face, just a dragonfly like a little water to say hello, on the way to Emei Mountain, Guo Jia and Xun Yu rode in the same carriage, and Qin Mi and Cao Hong were in another carriage.

Now, Xun Yu is interested in Qin Mi.

Qin Mi has a gentle appearance and a super easy temperament.

Even if a person like him walks into a crowd of people, he can't hide his outstanding light.

Knowing himself and knowing that he has won every battle, Xun Yu has a general understanding of Yizhou's civil and military affairs.

Just as he took refuge in Cao Ying to set an example for the Central Plains scholars, Qin Mi's defection to Guo Jia also set a precedent for the Yizhou scholars, although Cao Ying used his power to suppress the scholars, but also had a large number of scholars, and Guo Jia pursued the rule of law, Cao Ying was eclectic in employing people, Guo Jia used the imperial examination to establish a talent selection system, in terms of role, Xun Yu is naturally more important than Qin Mi.

Xun Yu always pays attention to the intelligence of Yizhou, and even takes precedence over the movements of the princes around the Central Plains.

There are some personal emotions in this, and he wants to know Guo Jia's every move.

There was a rebellion in Yizhou before, before Zhang Baiqi, there was Xu He, that rebellion, so that the vitality of the Yizhou Shi clan and the Hao clan was greatly damaged, and then they collapsed, and was gradually swept away by Guo Jia, and in this, Qin Mi's family was involved in the rebellion, and even the mastermind, these information can be obtained without any difficult means, and the entire Yizhou officialdom is well understood, and Guo Jia is gentle in the face of that rebellion, after many years, Xun Yu has a guess, maybe Guo Jia is just to get Qin Mi's input.

Qin Mi may not be able to have any fame in the Central Plains, but in Yizhou, Shilin is indeed famous, because of his service, the young generation of Yizhou then compromised and bowed to Guo Jia, and finally assimilated into the political group to which Guo Jia belonged, this is Qin Mi's value, but Xun Yu wants to know what kind of status Qin Mi is in Guo Jia's eyes.

"Xun Lingjun, have you also heard of the name of Zaixia?"

Qin Mi just asked very politely, Wang Zuozhicai's Xun Yu is very dazzling, whether it is his current official position or his ability under Cao Ying, people have to admire, but Qin Mi naturally will not bend his waist and lower his eyebrows in front of Xun Yu, Guo Jia and Xun Yu are friendly, that is a private relationship, Qin Mi and Xun Yu are not even acquainted, there is only the opposition between them.

Xun Yu, who was exquisite, heard the indifference in Qin Mi's words, shook his head and didn't want to say anything, in terms of age, he was much older than Qin Mi, there was no need to compete with juniors for fame and fortune, not to mention that he had always been modest and never domineering.

Guo Jia showed a playful smile, Xun Yu mentioned Qin Mi's name in front of him, obviously curious about Qin Mi, Guo Jia, who has his own set of words and feelings, knows Xun Yu too well, since Xun Yu is interested, Guo Jia is naturally as he wishes.

Ahem.

Coughing softly, Guo Jia said to Qin Mi with a smile on his face: "Zi Meng, let me ask you a few questions. ”

Qin Mi was confused, although he and Guo Jia often drank and chatted in private, they had never seen the smile on Guo Jia's face that seemed to have some conspiracy.

You are the master of the people, you can just ask.

Qin Mi pondered in his heart and said cautiously, "My lord, please ask." ”

Guo Jia couldn't help laughing, coughed twice again and cleared his throat.

Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai looked at each other, this scene seems familiar, once upon a time, when Guo Jia teased the children of the self-proclaimed talented family in Yingchuan, wasn't he just pretending to make people feel like they were facing a great enemy?

Qin Mi, it's difficult.

The two of them paid attention to Guo Jia curiously, and they couldn't think of how Guo Jia would make it difficult for Qin Mi, maybe it was just a good-natured joke.

"Zi Meng, let me ask you, does the sky have a head?"

Qin Mi looked at Guo Jia nervously, but he didn't expect to hear such a question, he frowned slightly, and he couldn't figure out why Guo Jia wanted to ask such a tricky question.

Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai on the side also showed a thoughtful expression, and the two looked at each other and shook their heads, as if they were admiring Guo Jia's difficult methods.

Just when the two of them thought that Qin Mi would be very embarrassed, they didn't expect Qin Mi to stretch his eyebrows and say lightly: "There is a head." ”

Guo Jia then asked, "Where is the head?" ”

Qin Mi replied, "In the west." "Poetry" cloud: It is to look to the west. By pushing it to this, the head is in the West. ”

This answer made Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu dumbfounded, but they didn't expect Qin Mi to be able to give an answer reasonably, on the other hand, Guo Jia didn't look discouraged at the moment, as if he was smiling even more.

"Zi Meng, let me ask you again, does the sky have ears?"

Well?

Qin Mi guessed Guo Jia's intentions, it seemed that he was testing his own talents, and it seemed that he was deliberately doing all this to Xun Yu.

No matter what the purpose is, Qin Mi has to cooperate with Guo Jia.

Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu locked their eyes on Qin Mi, implying expectations, this kind of unpopular and tricky question, the two of them would never think of an answer, and could only hope that Qin Mi could kill Guo Jia's sharpness.

"The heavens are high and the ears are humble. "Poem" cloud: 'The crane sings nine gao, and the sound is heard in the sky. 'How can you hear without ears?' ”

After Qin Mi finished speaking, he looked at Guo Jia, and his eyes seemed to say: Lord, don't ask again...... But Guo Jia was unaware of his helpless gaze, and continued to ask: "Is the sky enough?" ”

Qin Mi sighed silently, his thinking was running fast, maybe Guo Jia asked quickly, and when he asked urgently, he also thought quickly, and asked and answered, but there was no gap.

"There are enough. "Poetry" cloud: 'The day is difficult. 'How can you go without feet?' ”

"Does the sky have a surname?"

"The surname is Liu."

After these two words, Qin Mi's heart suddenly tightened, he is a smart person, although Guo Jia is a Han minister, but Guo Jia has done a lot of things to overthrow the foundation of the Han family, abolish filial piety and incorruptibility, and reopen a hundred schools...... But now, he had to say that, even if Guo Jia wanted to hear Tian's surname Guo, he would say that his surname was Liu.

"How do you know?"

Guo Jia seemed to be smiling, and his voice was softer.

Qin Mi was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice: "The surname of the Son of Heaven is Liu, so I know it." ”

...... "Good! What a quick-witted, erudite and wise Qin Zijian! ”

Xun Yu was overjoyed, and was amazed by Qin Mi's fluent performance!

Xi Zhicai also laughed heartily and said: "Zi Meng, Zi Meng, you really opened my eyes today, you can answer such a tricky question from the lord, in this world, if you are eloquent, you will deserve to be the first in the world." ”

Qin Mi was embarrassed, and repeatedly humbly said that he didn't dare to be.

Xun Yu saw Qin Mi's talent, turned his head to look at Guo Jia and said, "Feng Xiao is really discerning. ”

Guo Jia shrugged his shoulders and didn't care.

These questions, if you ask someone you are not familiar with, most of them will be considered deliberately difficult, anyway, Guo Jia is sure that Qin Mi can answer it, in history, Zhang Wen and Qin Mi argued fiercely and was speechless, if Guo Jia asked Zhang Song and asked Peng Yi, the other party would definitely not be able to answer.

Guo Jia didn't ask anymore, Qin Mi breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand and wanted to wipe a cold sweat, but he took it back.

Accompany Guo Jia and Xun Yu to say goodbye to Xi Zhicai, they should embark on the journey home.
