Chapter 54: Guo Jia's Persuasion
At this time, Wang Chong didn't know that he had walked around the ghost gate unknowingly, if it weren't for Guo Jia's secret help, he wouldn't want to leave Xu Du easily even if he didn't die.
As the saying goes, people are in good spirits when they are happy, so Wang Chong is in a very good mood now.
First, judging from Cao Cao's reaction yesterday, Wang Chong felt that there should be no problem at all that the imperial court would seal himself to an official position that was not big or small; Second, after a discussion with Xu Chu last night, not only Wang Shuang benefited a lot, but Wang Chong also further improved his Tai Chi marksmanship, although he still lost to Xu Chu in the end, but this gave him a greater outlook for the future.
Because he was very excited all night last night, Wang Chong slept very late, and when he got up, the time was close to noon, and Xu Chu had already gone to Sikong Mansion to be on duty.
Wang Chong first practiced a set of boxing in the martial arts arena, sweated profusely, and then asked the maid to bring hot water and take a comfortable hot bath, and instructed the kitchen to prepare a meal for himself.
For the subordinates of the Xu Mansion, Wang Chongke was not polite at all, as if this was really his home, and he was even more skilled than Xu Chu, the master.
After lunch, Wang Chong was thinking about going out to visit Xudu, but who knew that as soon as he came out of the door, he happened to meet Guo Jia who was coming.
Guo Jia sighed and asked, "Shaolin, are you going out?" ”
"Yes, it's the first time I've come to Xudu when I'm so old, of course I want to take this opportunity to go out for a walk." Wang Chong nodded and asked suspiciously, "I don't know why Mr. Fengxiao came here?" At this moment, Brother Zhongkang is not in the house. ”
"Of course I know he's not here, but I'm here to find you."
Wang Chong was taken aback: "Looking for me? ”
"yes." Guo Jia explained, "I thought in my heart that you are not familiar with the life in Xudu alone, and you have no friends, so you should be bored, so I want to take you to Xudu together and enjoy the friendship of landlords." ”
"That's exactly what I want." Wang Chong laughed and exclaimed: "It's still Mr. Fengxiao who is a friend enough, unlike Xu Zhongkang's piece of wood, which makes me so reluctant to stay in his house for a few days, it's really unpleasant!" ”
When Guo Jia heard this, he immediately remembered Xu Chu's aggrieved appearance in the morning, and laughed: "Don't pay attention to that fool, go, I'll take you to a good place." ”
Guo Jia's enthusiasm surprised Wang Chong, but Wang Chong was still very happy to get Guo Jia's friendship.
Walking side by side with Guo Jia all the way, Wang Chong expressed the question in his heart: "Why is Mr. Fengxiao so free today, doesn't he have to stay in Sikong Mansion to participate in the military aircraft?" ”
Guo Jia shook his head and smiled: "I don't understand government affairs, those troublesome problems, if they deal with them!" ”
...... "Okay, Wang Chong has completely convinced this lazy guy, and he can steal all the laziness so justifiably, I'm afraid there is only Guo Jia in this world."
The two walked on the road for about a quarter of an hour, and Guo Jia stopped in front of a luxurious attic: "It's here!" ”
"Yiyun Pavilion?" Wang Chong looked at the three gilded characters hanging on the door, looked inside, and was dumbfounded.
it! Isn't this Nima the legendary prostitute...... Ah no, Qinglou? Wang Chong never thought that Guo Jia would bring himself to such a place.
However, although Wang Chong was surprised, after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that it was reasonable.
Guo Jia has never followed the etiquette law, lives a debauched life, except for getting together with Xun Yu and other friends on weekdays, most of his free time is mixed in this hook column, so Guo Jia will bring himself here, in fact, it is normal.
Guo Jia saw Wang Chong's embarrassed face, and asked with a smile, "What?" Could it be that Shaolin has never been to such a place? ”
Wang Chong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "In the next reckless, I only know how to shout and kill on weekdays, how can I come to this kind of gathering place for literati and scholars?" ”
Since ancient times, the Qinglou has been the most frequent place for scholars and literati, who often like to listen to a song and drink a few drinks in the Qinglou with a group of friends, and then talk about poetry or the most popular topics of the moment.
Of course, there are also some people who come here just for simple pleasure, just like Guo Jia, he never recited poetry, was elegant, and never cared about other people's eyes.
Guo Jia laughed when he heard this: "In this case, I have to experience it even more today!" ”
After saying that, he directly grabbed Wang Chong's hand and dragged him in.
However, although Guo Jia's words were unbearable, in fact, he only needed a quiet private room, a few pots of wine and a few plates of snacks, and did not call a geisha to accompany him.
Wang Chong asked Wang Shuang to stay outside the door to prevent outsiders from entering, and asked Guo Jiadao: "Mr. Fengxiao specially invited me to come here, but do I have something to explain?" ”
"You're smart!" Guo Jia glanced at Wang Chong deeply: "It's just that you don't know that you almost can't leave Xu Du." ”
Wang Chong's face changed, and then returned to normal: "Is it because I am too sharp?" But if I don't, how can I convince you that I have the power to stop Koto? ”
"Don't Shaolin know the truth of excess?" Guo Jia reminded, "Once my family thinks that your existence is even more threatening than Sun Bofu, do you think you will be able to leave Xudu alive?" ”
Wang Chong was drenched in a cold sweat when he heard this, and now he calmed down and thought about it, he was indeed a little overdone at that time.
"Thank you, Mr. Bonghyo, for the point." Wang Chong thanked him sincerely, "It's just ......"
"It's just that you don't understand, I'm not related to you, why did I ask you out to tell you this?"
Seeing Wang Chong nodded, Guo Jia sighed and said: "Shaolin, I fell in love with you, I really can't bear you to die young, but I really can't figure it out, if the pattern has been decided today, my family Sikong and Yuan Shao will fight, if you can win, it will inevitably swallow the world, why are you so persistent?" Do that useless work? As long as you can let go of the unrealistic ambitions in your heart, with your talents, you will be able to pay homage to the prime minister in the future and leave a name in history, isn't this enough? ”
Wang Chong was silent, he knew that what Guo Jia said was from the bottom of his heart, in fact, as Guo Jia said, Cao Cao in history had the momentum of dominating the world after defeating Yuan Shao, but unfortunately with Guo Jia's death and the defeat of the Battle of Chibi, the good situation fell apart, and the world was divided into three points from then on, and even Cao Cao did not complete the grand wish of unification until his death, and even in the end, even most of the country he had laid was stolen by the Sima family.
Wang Chong looked at Guo Jia apologetically: "Everyone has their own ambitions, if I don't try it, I'm afraid I won't give up no matter what!" ”
"That's it!" Guo Jia said disappointedly, "Since you have made up your mind, I will no longer advise, but in the future, we will meet on the battlefield, you and I will rely on our own abilities, and I will not show mercy!" ”
Wang Chong smiled: "Actually, I also hope to appreciate Mr. Fengxiao's demeanor on the battlefield!" ”
