Zheng Tai didn't come to the banquet alone, and there were three people behind him.

One of them is known to Dong Shouye, that is, Zheng Tai's younger brother Zheng Hun. This Zheng Hun can be said to be Dong Shouye's senior brother, or it can be said to be Dong Shouye's uncle, thinking that when Dong Shouye was studying in Zheng Tai's Mansion, there were only two ordinary students, one was Dong Shouye, and the other was Zheng Hun. Although there are occasionally other people who come to listen to Zheng Tai's lectures, it is this Zheng Hun who has always been with Dong Shouye.

And after getting along for a period of time, with Dong Shouye's intentional friendship, Zheng Hun has a very good relationship with Dong Shouye, and he has a bit of a real classmate.

Zheng Tai pointed to a person beside him at this time and introduced to Dong Shouye: "Shouye, this person is the Huangmen squire Xun You, who is a public servant. ”

I saw that this person was about eight feet tall, a few points shorter than Dong Shouye, and he was slender, with a handsome face, wearing a Magi crown, and running a long distance, with a chic bearing.

After hearing this, Dong Shouye was shocked, but his face did not change on the surface, he saluted the other party, and said: "Mr. Xun is well-known at home, and Shouye has long heard of it. ”

Na Xun You smiled, returned the salute, and then said: "Shouye Gongzi has won the award, recently I heard that Shouye Gongzi Hedong Ping Baibo, Luoyang hit Sun Jian, is in the limelight, and he is a world-famous young talent." ”

Zheng Tai said: "You two don't have to flatter each other there. After speaking, he pointed to the person next to Xun You and said, "Shouye, this is Zhong Xuan, the waiter of the Yellow Gate." ”

Dong Shouye saw that this person was similar to Xun You's figure, but his appearance was more graceful and luxurious, so he gave a salute to the other party and said: "I heard that Mr. Zhong studied under Cai Zhonglang, and his calligraphy is excellent, which can be called a wonderful pen. The younger generation is also very yearning. ”

Zhong Xuan returned the salute to Dong Shouye, and said: "Shouye's son is young and promising, and he can be called a model for young people. There are many young sons in Chang'an City, but no one can compare to the sons of Shouye. ”

Dong Shouye greeted Zheng Hun again.

So, several people gave in again, and Dong Shouye led them to the mansion.

After Dong Shouye arranged for Zheng Tai, the mentor to be seated, he wanted to leave and continue to greet others, so he said to Zheng Tai: "Teacher, the disciple will go out to greet the others first, and then come to accompany him later." ”

Zheng Tai's face was straight, and then he said: "The matter of welcoming guests, others can also do it, so why bother you to worry about it, you don't want to go anywhere today, just accompany the teacher." ”

Dong Shouye was stunned when he heard this, Zheng Tai's words were a little wrong! It stands to reason that Dong Shouye should go out to greet guests. Zheng Tai's words are a bit unreasonable, which is quite different from the usually polite Zheng Tai.

However, in this era, the name of the master is like a holy decree, and even Dong Shouye does not dare to disobey it. Dong Shouye could only continue to serve next to Zheng Tai.

For Dong Shouye, Zheng Tai's words are more effective than Dong Zhuo's. In Confucian ethics, the life of the master is greater than the life of the parents in a certain way.

Dong Shouye was stunned next to Zheng Tai for a while, and suddenly realized, who was the pestle next to him? That's Xun Yu and Zhong Xuan? These two are a generation of talents that are rare to see in a century! That's a lot more valuable than most people inside and outside the house.

Among the hundreds of people inside and outside this mansion, there are really few people who can compare to Xun You and Zhong Xuan.

At this time, Dong Shouye couldn't help but secretly speculate about what Zheng Tai meant, could it be that Zheng Tai was doing something for himself?

After a while, Zheng Tai suddenly asked: "Shouye Some time ago, the news that you led the troops to defeat Sun Jian spread widely, many people have heard that the battle of Liangdong was commanded by Xu Rong, and you were just cooperating with Xu Rong, but afterwards you encroached on Xu Rong's credit because of your father Dong Taishi's relationship, I don't know if this matter is serious?" ”

After finishing speaking, he looked at Dong Shouye with burning eyes, and Xun You, Zhong Xuan and Zheng Hun next to him also looked at Dong Shouye with blank eyes, obviously very concerned about this matter, and they all wanted to know the actual situation.

Dong Shouye was speechless when asked by Zheng Tai and didn't know how to answer his mentor Zheng Tai, after Dong Shouye discussed with Jia Xu, he deliberately let the message go out, thinking that the act of self-defilement had reached the goal of confusing the enemy, making the world think that Dong Zhuo's son was just a mediocre talent, so as to reduce the prevention of the director's father and son, in order to make Dong Shouye more smoothly in charge of the Xiliang Army in the future, and avoid some unnecessary troubles.

Now that Zheng Tai is talking about this matter, Dong Shouye is a little unsure whether to lie to his master or tell the truth.

Zheng Tai saw that Dong Shouye was still hesitating, so he said: "Shouye, you and I are a master and apprentice, being a teacher will not harm you, this Xun Gongda and Zhong Yuanchang are friends of the teacher, you can rest assured that they will definitely not spread today's events." ”

Dong Shouye listened, pondered for a while, turned his heart sideways, and then said: "Shouye obeys the orders of the teacher. Then he told the process of how he led 50,000 horses to defeat Sun Jian's 90,000 horses.

At this time, there were not many guests coming, so there was no one near Dong Shouye, and there was no need to worry about being heard by others.

After speaking, Xun You first said: "Shouye Gongzi is bold and careful, although there is some luck in winning this battle, but on the whole, the command of the whole process is also decent, quite a dignified soldier, with a dignified array, dignified to defeat a strong enemy." That Sun Jianxun has also heard of it, brave and resolute, and can be regarded as a famous general after Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi, and Zhu Jun. Shouye Gongzi defeated this person with a weak victory over the strong, and he also has the style of a generation of famous generals. ”

After listening to Xun You's praise, Zheng Tai touched his beard, his face was expressionless, and he was silent.

Zhong Xuan next to him continued: "The young man who guards the industry is a young man, and after the victory, he can still be arrogant or impatient, reserved and introverted, but he is young but can not be in the limelight, and it is even more rare to be willing to be silent." You must know that the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. The self-defiling of the son of the industry is really smart. ”

Dong Shouye didn't understand what the situation was, but he didn't expect that some people who were originally unrelated to each other suddenly came to praise themselves, but it was better than nothing.

Zheng Tai pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "Although Taishi Dong is old, he is an old clam with a pearl. After saying that, he suddenly sighed.

Dong Shouye felt even more inexplicable, but he didn't know what to say, he only felt that today's teacher's behavior was particularly weird, and after thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out, and privately thought about taking the time to take Jia Xu, the old poison who is the best at speculating people's hearts, with him and analyze it.

While thinking nonsense, he carefully served Zheng Tai and continued to talk to them.

After a while, Zheng Tai said: "Shouye, you go and greet the others, the guests are almost the same, if you are always here to accompany the old man, it seems a little polite." ”

Dong Shouye became even more depressed now, and muttered in his heart: "Didn't you leave me by your side just now, why did you drive me away now." But he didn't dare to refute, so he bowed to Zheng Tai and the others and retreated.
