On the dirt road, an ox cart moved slowly, very slowly. But compared to the pedestrians walking on the road next to the ox cart, it is much better.

The cow in front of him pulled the board cart behind, and on the top of the board cart, there was a layer of fine straw, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, and Xi Zhicai were sitting on it, looking around, very comfortable and leisurely. As for Kong Ming, yes

Driving the scalper in front, he changed from a dashing and handsome scholar with a bookish atmosphere to a coachman.

It was not the coachman who drove the carriage, but the ox cart, which really made Kong Ming a little melancholy. Although among the six arts of the gentleman, the royal is also among them, but when a gentleman is really asked to drive, that gentleman must be extremely unhappy. Especially in a situation like this that you need to roll up your sleeves, coupled with the scalper who is extremely smooth but slow in speed, any gentleman will feel what Kong Ming feels at the moment.

"Wind and rain, hurry up!" Guo Jia, who was lying on the baffle of the board car, opened his mouth and urged.

"Guo Fengxiao! You are the one who said that you want the ox cart, and now you are the one who says the ox cart is slow, what are you doing, do you want to fight? Kong Ming retorted without hesitation.

This ox cart was really proposed to be bought by Guo Jia, otherwise they would have traveled thousands of miles, measuring step by step, until they finally arrived in Luoyang City. No, because of Guo Jia's proposal, coupled with the slow speed of the ox cart, only a little faster than a human walk, it was not much different from the original intention of traveling thousands of miles, and finally the ox cart appeared.

"Well." Guo Jia scratched his head and thought about it, as if he was indeed going to buy an ox cart. Well, he has a lot of forgiveness for the anxious driving speed.

He then said: "The gentleman doesn't move his mouth, everyone has something to say, not to mention that we are confidants, how can confidants hurt each other?" Otherwise, let's change to a more elegant way of comparison, let's drink, you can drink me down, and from then on you will be my Guo Jia's eldest brother! ”

"Poof." Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai next to him couldn't help laughing, and when they realized that when they laughed, they hurriedly covered their mouths, but their bodies couldn't stop trembling and twitching.

Compare wine with Guo Jia? I'm afraid it's not wrong. With Guo Fengxiao's good wine, I am afraid that I will not be able to pour it down in the end, but I have to pour it myself, and after pouring it, my body will be searched by Guo Jia. In the end, it was obviously two people who were drinking, but only you paid, which is where Guo Fengxiao was insidious.

"You guy, can you stop mentioning the wine?" Of course, Kong Ming will not follow Guo Jia's words, and if he continues, it is estimated that he will have to go to the next township and spend a good time in the tavern.

Helpless, really helpless. This is the third day of Guo Jia's abstinence, and in these three days, similar topics have gone from less to more, and now, no matter what he says, he will be led crooked by Guo Jia and brought to the wine. This drunkard, Kong Ming really doesn't know why this guy is so good at wine, and it is precisely because of this that he doesn't dare to take out those real wines and brew some to enjoy.

As long as this guy smells it, then the consequences are almost imaginable, that is, in a word, don't get drunk and don't stop! During this period in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the purity of the wine was not high, the degree was extremely low, and the taste was not good. In this case, Guo Jia has grown into an alcoholic, and if those good wines come, I am afraid that this alcoholic will really become a ghost.

Kong Ming knew that the reason why Guo Jia died in history was that he was not in good health and was extremely good at drinking. Now in the case of the influx of many players, those realistic good wines are only afraid that they will be restored, in this case, Kong Ming can only take action, and a ban on alcohol is posted on Guo Jia's forehead.

This resolution was unanimously approved by the three-member committee, Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai, and Kong Ming. Civilian Guo Jia expressed his protest and swore to resist this inhumane and coercive resolution. However, outnumbered, Guo Jia finally became what he is now, lazily lying on the baffle, with a helpless face.

"Get off, get off, I'm getting off!" Guo Jia patted the straw and muttered.

"Hmph. Got on my bus to kindergarten, and you still want to get off? Kong Ming sneered and said in a low voice.

Don't look at Guo Jia's current appearance, it seems like he is about to die, if you believe it, it will be a real tragedy. The reason why he is sitting obediently in the car now is because he has no money on him, and at the same time, Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai are staring at him next to him.

In this case, Ren Guojia, a ghost, can't do anything! Xun Yu, who is not inferior to him in the slightest, is staring at him, he is like a flea, and he can't jump away no matter how he can jump!

But... Kong Ming's eyes rolled around, and he thought about it. Relying only on strong suppression will be okay for a short time, but it will definitely not work for a long time. After all, no one can be vigilant. As long as you show a gap, Guo Jia will take advantage of the void and achieve the goal. Therefore, he also needs to use both prongs and use other things to attract Guo Jia's attention.

"What do you think?"

"What do you think?" Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai were puzzled by Kong Ming's brainless questioning.

"Of course, it's the current situation." Kong Ming said. Studying at Yingchuan Academy, and being friends with these top strategists, he could feel that his wisdom seemed to have risen. Looking at many things, Kong Ming is really not as one-sided as before, but will try to analyze it from different angles.

See the big from the small, a lot of details, inconspicuous things, but as long as you put them in the key places and connect them, then you can know a lot of things. Everything in the world is actually related, but it depends on whether you have that pair of hands to connect it.

For example, those walking pedestrians now, walking in a hurry, looking around from time to time, with an indissoluble vigilance in their eyes. There are very few merchants visible, but none of those who carry goods have guards, or are themselves strong men, and in the most obvious places, they hang bright weapons.

It can be seen how bad the situation is in various places now, at least the safety of many ordinary people, there is no way to guarantee it. In addition, the number of merchants who traveled all over the country and the number of merchants who transported goods decreased, which was obviously because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion that had just ended.

But in fact, it was not over, it was just that the main force of the Yellow Turban Army was extinguished, and there were still many wandering Yellow Turban thieves waiting for the encirclement and suppression of the local government. Among them, I don't know how many bandits and bandits who temporarily wore yellow turban skins and stripped off their bodies at this time and re-entered the mountains.

These people will not have any soft hearts, and when they encounter some relatively small villages, they will directly attack. If the villages can repel them, then it is fine, if they can't, they will be robbed of their belongings, women will be plundered, and even these thieves will vent their anger and slaughter the village.

At this time, the county seat may not be absolutely safe, unless some states and counties really make great efforts to eliminate the Yellow Turban Rogues under their rule. Otherwise, even when you go out, you have to weigh whether you will accidentally encounter these thieves passing by.

Seeing the big from the small, even in the heart of the heart, on the way to Luoyang, this is the situation. How can those states and counties that are a little worse be spared?

The world is uneven, and the road is difficult. If they weren't powerless scholars, they would only be attacked by thieves halfway. The current ox cart is not Guo Jia's temporary idea, they don't have the money to buy the carriage, but the value of the carriage is greater, and it is easier for thieves to covet it.

"The current situation?" Guo Jia's attention was attracted, and he pouted, he was very disdainful.

"What else can I say? The situation is so bad that there is nothing to say? Shaking his head, Guo Jia didn't even bother to say a superfluous word.

All of this is the mistake of the so-called Han family, and it is also the problem of today's Son of Heaven! For the imperial power, Guo Jiake will not be in awe, and he will not be like Xun Yu, who has such loyalty.

In his eyes, if there is anything that is extremely rotten, whether it is dead wood or the current court. Since it has decayed and been hollowed out by insects, there is no way to save it, so it is all demolished and rebuilt.

Don't you know that at the beginning, Gaozu Liu Bang was just a pavilion chief, and now the Liu family can really only be surnamed Liu? Guo Jia is very careless about Xun Yu's so-called idea of helping the Han family, because some people have no way to help them up.

Xun Yu shook his head, disagreeing with Guo Jia's idea very much, he said loudly: "Although the situation is a little chaotic, but this is the time when our generation is upright, as long as we are willing, the current situation just needs to take a little time to calm down." ”

Guo Jia, Kong Ming, and Xi Zhicai saw and heard along the way, and Xun Yu also saw it. As a son of a family, he was not a high-ranking man, and he was able to talk to the pawn drinkers in the wine shop, and in the fields, he had a good time with the old farmers.

Everything now is indeed problematic, but as long as he is willing to correct it, then Xun Yu believes that everything will return to normal. He studied at Yingchuan Academy, and his ambition at the beginning was not to support the Han family and return the world to a peaceful and clear world?

"Take a moment?" Xi Zhi is from a poor family, and like Guo Jia, he has almost no loyalty to the Han family.

"Wen Ruo, you are from a family, and your father has ministers in the court, as well as famous people in the sea, but I am afraid that you don't know the pain of my generation."

Xi Zhicai sometimes really felt that if it weren't for the existence of Yingchuan Academy, his path to study would be very difficult, and maybe it would be even more different from now. Similarly, becoming friends with Xun Yu and Xun You, the two children of the Yingchuan clan, is even more of an indescribable encounter.

It's just that there are some things that you can't empathize with. How can the fate of the children of the poor family be clearly explained in one or two sentences, and you can understand their pain when you see it.

"If you talk about the way to advancement, I am afraid that it will be extremely difficult for me and Fengxiao, the three of them will be extremely difficult. In today's court, how many people are from a poor family, and they are children of a poor family? Xi Zhicai asked. He just asked a simple rhetorical question, and did not mean any sarcasm about Xun Yu.

Sometimes I do envy it, but Xi Zhicai has never resented that he was born in a poor family and is a child of a poor family. How can the birth of each person be arbitrarily chosen? This is the real and completely equal opportunity, and the inequality in the eyes of some self-pitying poor children stems from envy and jealousy in their hearts.

"This..."Xun Yu was silent, although he didn't want to admit it, but what Xi Zhicai said was indeed the truth.

In the current court, it is true that ministers from poor families are very rare, almost none. Under this, the same situation is true for the big and small officials in the states and counties, of course, those small officials are not among them. In the past, when they were able to buy and sell officials, how could those poor children come out?

is like his three friends now, their abilities are all recognized by Xun Yu. But if you think about it, it is really possible that they will be buried, just because of this cold door.

Xun Yu didn't say anything to support, he had this ability, but it was almost an insult. Several of them have some arrogance in their bones, even if that opportunity is mixed with some impurities that are not really their own ability, they will feel ashamed.

"What's more, even if Wen Ruo has the talent to help the world, I won't suggest that you go to the court now. Who doesn't know how many ministers have died at the hands of the Ten Permanent Servants, and the number is only a little more. Guo Jia took over and said.

Xun Yu became more and more silent, and he knew where it came from. In the final analysis, it is because of the Son of Heaven that no matter how he explains it, there is no way to explain it.

After all, the ten permanent servants are just a group of eunuchs, and the reason why they can create party imprisonment is only because of the favor of the Son of Heaven and the power given to them by the Son of Heaven! Xun Yu is also very disappointed with the current Son of Heaven, in a rebellious sentence, he does not want to be an official under today's son, but is ready to wait until the new emperor ascends the throne.

Now that the crown prince has not been established, he and the elders in the family are full of worries. I don't know how many repetitions there will be, and how many variables will appear, at least, they are all expecting, expecting all the ten permanent servants to be exterminated!

"You three, don't say it, don't say it, I'm going to take a break if someone else comes to drive." Kong Ming put down the reins and beckoned someone to come and do his job.

Even if Guo Jia and the three of them were wise, they would not have guessed that the three of them would all be officials under Cao Cao in the end. Now their worries are completely superfluous, and when Cao Cao's court is concerned, almost all the strategists of Yingchuan's lineage will be snared. Regardless of whether it is a poor family or a wealthy family, there may be a difference in the eyes of others, but Cao Mengde's house is completely a representative of talent.

"If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it when I get to Luoyang City in a few days!" Kong Ming finally put an end to the controversy he provoked, and at the same time he was complacent that he had succeeded in attracting Guo Jia's attention.

Whether it is a poor family or a family, alcoholism is a disease that can be cured! He will continue, Guo Jia, this guy, he wants to be treated!
