After several months of three-in-one county magistrate career, Shi Xun turned back to Cao Cao to do clerical work, and felt much more comfortable than before. First, there are few urgent matters that need to be followed up by himself, and there is more free time, and second, after local experience, he has become more experienced in handling government affairs.

Of course, compared with the fake work back then, the paperwork to be handled in Jiyin County is also more complicated. The work engaged in by the county, according to the later "Later Han Shu Baiguan Zhi", was to "supervise the documents and investigate the illegality", that is, to collect and review all kinds of official documents from Jiyin County, and to promulgate various government decrees in the state, to supervise the implementation of the county, and to investigate and report the illegalities of officials at all levels in the county from the official documents. After a period of internship and running-in, now Shixun is no longer as trembling and walking on thin ice as before in the writing of official documents, and the result is only clear and organized, but the rhetoric is not excellent, and it always feels dry.

Because he began to plagiarize the ancients in a big way...... Well, for this era, it should be said that it is a sentence of the people of the future. After all, you have to copy a large paragraph of poetry, copy the text we can just pick the aphorisms, insert one or two epigrams in the large paragraphs of the official document, and the code can pull the idea high, and look at it is so dazzling and extraordinary. The article is like this, there is no need for many good words, it can play the role of the finishing touch.

For example, when dealing with the official document of Jiyin's persuasion, Shi Xun wrote, "Diligent study is like a spring sprout, and it does not increase but grows day by day; Dropping out of school is like sharpening the knife stone, not seeing its loss and losing it day by day", "The business of learning, good at diligence and ridiculous in play; The journey of a scholar is made in thought and destroyed in follow". When it comes to the official document dealing with relevant government affairs, Shi Xun writes "Although the evil is small, don't do it; Although the good is small, don't ignore it", "The core is in the scriptures, and the sorrow can rejuvenate the country; In the light of history, Yiyu can die." When dealing with the official document of the relevant personnel accepting the fate, Shi Xun wrote "The third day of the jade test, and then the treasure; Seven years of wood identification, Si Ke into a material", "Lu Yao is to know the horsepower, and the people have seen the hearts of the people over time"......

He took these ancient ...... The future text retains the original meaning, and the words are slightly tampered with, so that one is to conform to the style and tone of the context, and the other is to produce a kind of S-like pleasure of spoiling good things. For example, hmph, Lao Tzu, look at my Zhuyu in front, how can Liu Bei teach your son before you die......

Xun Yu, as Cao Cao's big butler, is the vast majority of Xun's Hongwen, and he needs to have a purpose-I don't know where this guy got so much energy and time--I once went to Cao Cao with the article and said: "It's Hongfu's literature that is flourishing, but I gradually feel that it is a beautiful way, and I am afraid that it is not the right way." Cao Cao said no, the article doesn't care if it's gorgeous or not, not necessarily only simple can say things, beautiful can only be endowed, you look at the words he wrote - "The building is close to the water, and the moon is the first; Flowers and trees are sunny, so it is easy to be spring", "Take copper as a reference, you can be dressed; Taking history as a mirror is to know the rise and fall; Taking people as a mirror is to know right from wrong", how profound the meaning here is.

As he spoke, he stroked his beard proudly: "The former envoy Hongfu supervised the post and Jiyin, and kept the Yang order, so that he was full of confidence and self-glory-go to be honest and not deceive." ”

Of course, Xun Xun didn't know that Xun Yu and Cao Cao were talking about him like this, he was now addicted to plagiarism, and he usually had nothing to do, so he racked his brains to recall the idioms and aphorisms of later generations, and recorded a sentence when he came up with it, and planned to rely on this deception for the rest of his life - this is much easier than copying poems.

Of course, life is not always pretty, and there are many worries. First of all, Guan Hai's wound is barely healed, but his body is not good, coughing up blood at both ends in three days, and he can hardly get off the ground - it was Xun pondering, he didn't hurt his heart, probably hurt the lung lobe, right? Could it be that this yellow-faced man is going to be reduced to a waste from now on? Whenever he saw Guan Si's frowning eyebrows, Shi Xun's good mood all day would come to naught, and he couldn't help but sigh with Guan Si.

The second is that Cao De came with a letter at two ends in three days, saying that Hongfu, you recommended a Tai Shi Ci and a Lu Hong to me in the past, but they were all robbed by my brother - Tai Shi Ziyi is the first in the world, and my small Jiyin County really can't settle this raptor, so there is no way, and I don't know what Lu Hong is capable of, and my brother is also domineering and refuses to let go. You also recommended to me one is Yi, and one is Wang Xiu - the doorman came back from Qingzhou to report that Yi had gone south to Xuzhou and went to vote for a few of his own sons; Wang Xiu insisted on accompanying Kong Rong until the whole territory of Qingzhou was swallowed by Yuan Tan, Kong Rong returned to his hometown and went into seclusion, and his brother had no choice but to demote Yuan Tan and was appointed to govern the central government.

It's Hongsuke, you recommended four people to me, but they all failed, you can't just leave it and run away, you have to find me some more people.

It was Xun Xin who said that this is my, and Cao Cao also snatched the Taoist priest Xie Zheng that I worked so hard to find. Besides, isn't there anyone in Jiyin County? He thought about it, and finally recommended Chengyang's Ning Ke and Cheng's Li Fu and Li Deng brothers to Cao De, but to make it clear, I just have a general friendship with these people, and I don't know much about it, you have investigated it first and then use it, and it has nothing to do with me if something happens.

Then he replied to Cao De, saying that there are countless celebrities between Yingchuan and Chen Liu, and they are all theoretically in Xun Wenruo's stomach, so you go to him and ask for someone. You see, your brother just asked, "It's a pity that Xi Zhi is dead, is there a good product with similar function and quality?" He immediately took out Guo Jia.

An incident not long after also proved Xun's idea, Xun Yu still has a stomach of talents to be recommended, but because the time has not come, or the position is not good, so he didn't have time to touch it. Saying that Cao Cao discussed the issue of Yuzhou with Guo Jia and Shixun, Cao Cao said, that Yuzhou assassin Guo Gong is too hateful, it is rumored that when I retired and came back to fight Lu Bu, he quietly recruited troops and horses, and wanted to stab him in the back, if I didn't leave Zixiao (Cao Ren) and them to guard the north and south of Runan, it is estimated that Ya's conspiracy would succeed. No, we have to oust him from power and change someone else to make a history of assassination.

He asked the two, who would replace Guo Gong? Guo Jia said that since General Zixiao was there, then simply let him be on top; Yes Xun said that the talent to go to the disease is also of great use, and he can replace Guo Gong. Cao Cao shook his head again and again after hearing this: "It's all my brothers, since my cousin is a stabbing history, I'm afraid there will be something to discuss." ”

Shi Xun glanced at Guo Jia, deliberately relaxed his tone, and said half-jokingly: "The five thieves of the lord are not broken, and the hegemony is difficult." Cao Cao was stunned when he heard this: "What are the five thieves?" Guo Jia also groaned: "I know that there are so-called five thieves who hurt the crops, and I heard that those who hurt the internal organs have the five thieves of 'joy, anger, sorrow and happiness'......"

Cao Cao said yes, yes, Hongfu must be referring to this, no way, I'm such an emotional person, and my desire is also very strong - although I don't want Huaxia food and gold and jade silk, but I can't move when I see a beautiful woman (it's Xunxin who said that you can't move the road when you see power) - this problem is really not easy to break.

Shixun smiled slightly and shook his head. He said in his heart that this is a joke in "Song Barnyard Copy", of course you don't understand, and wait for me to explain: "The so-called 'five thieves' are not him, but 'benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith'." Cao Cao was confused, saying that these are the five virtues, how did he become a five thieves?

"The five virtues of scholars, the five thieves of tyrants," Shi Xun broke his fingers to explain to Cao Cao one by one, "Song Xiang does not break his benevolence, but there is the defeat of Hongshui; In the Spring and Autumn Period, there was no righteous war, and it became the trend of the five hegemons; Gao Zu was slow and rude, and then opened the foundation of Yan Han; Han Xin flaunted his wisdom and inevitably died in the bell room; The overlord believes in the chasm, and eventually has a dilemma. If the lord wants to become the tyrant of Qi Huan and Jin Wen, he has to break the five thieves; Whatever is conducive to the glory of the Han family, benevolence, righteousness and peace can be controlled, and the letter of propriety can also be removed - fear of people's words, but also self-restraint. ”

Cao Cao listened, raised his head and smiled, snot and tears: "I don't want Hongfu to be the likes of Dongfang Manqian (Dongfang Shuo), hearing Jun's words, I have been tired for many days, and I will be empty for a while." Guo Jia also laughed, but he was not as arrogant as Cao Cao. Shi Xun applauded: "If you laugh well, you will see that the lord has broken the 'ceremony' thief." While squinting at Guo Jia, he said deeply, this kid, I really can't see through it.

Cao Cao is a person who laughs and often plays treasures, and it is Xun who makes this kind of joke with him, which does not hurt at all, but shortens the distance between the two - besides, although it is a joke, the deep meaning contained in it is enough to make people sweat cold on their backs after meditating. But if a child of a family like Xun Yu, or an honest and upright person like Mao Jue were present, Shi Xun wouldn't dare to talk such nonsense - wouldn't it be looking for scolding. At this time, except for Cao Cao, only Guo Jia was present, so he pondered and tried it.

According to the history books, Guo Fengxiao "has a vulgar ridicule", which means that his reputation is not very good, and he is often criticized. Some people guessed, it was because Guo Jia was from a humble background and had a strong Shu atmosphere, and some people guessed that Guo Jia was informal, and his behavior was debauched. But looking at Xun, these two points are debatable: first of all, Guo Jia's background is not high, and he can't be compared with Xun Yu, but there are not many real families under Cao Cao, and Guo Jia's family background is not as good as Wu Zhen's small landlords in the countryside or even rich peasants, and it is not much worse than Cheng Yu and Mao Jue; Furthermore, Guo Jia doesn't know if Lu Dao is like this, or because he is new to the school, he is more restrained, and everyone before and after him is more polite, and he has not shown any debauched behavior.

So he tried Guo Jia today to see if he was like Cao Cao, who despised traditional morality and etiquette, so he was scolded. It's a pity that Guo Jia didn't stand up, and scolded him sternly that it was inappropriate for you to joke like this, nor did he laugh with Cao Cao until he almost lost his breath, just with the perfunctory "hehehe" here - what did he think in his heart? It's Hoon, I really can't see it.

After laughing, of course, you have to study serious things. Shi Xun dug out the resumes of high-ranking officials who had entered the imperial court in recent years to check and see if there were any clues. As a result, hey, I really flipped one for him: "Therefore, Situ and Chen Guoyuan have a son's name, and they refused to give in addition to the previous order, I don't know where they are now?" ”

Guo Jia is a native of Chen Liu, so he was next to Chen Guo, and gave the answer at the moment: "Live in seclusion at home." Shi Xun suggested: "Guo Gong can be made Maocai, and then Guo Gong can be replaced." "This Yuan Yaoqing is also a legendary figure in the Book of Wei, and he has a good background, so it is very suitable to pick him as the assassin of Yuzhou. Cao Cao was still hesitating, saying that Yuan Yaoqing was a native of Yuzhou, so was it appropriate for him to be the assassin of Yuzhou?

It's Xun Xin who said what kind of situation is this, are you still clinging to these? Sure enough, the five thieves in my heart were not broken. He didn't know anything else, he had stayed in Qingzhou at the beginning, but the matter of Qingzhou was clear: "Before that, Liu Jingsheng was listed as the history of Qingzhou Thorn by Sun Song of Beihai. Liu Biao, as a clan relative and a great Confucian in the world, has not yet adhered to his old system, so what is the lord afraid of? ”

Cao Cao slapped his thigh when he heard it, and said That's good, it's him - a few days ago, Wen Ruo also mentioned Yuan Chuan to me, but said that he didn't have a suitable position yet, this time, I will let Wen Ruo go and invite him out of the mountain.

It was Xun Xin who said Look, in the end, it is still the character in Xun Yu's pocket.
