Chapter 1003: Quietly cheating
As one of the three princes, Yuan Huai's mansion can be described as a busy traffic, the fourth generation of the Yuan family, the third prince, the protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials are all over the world, it can be said that it is one of the top families in the world, and it can be compared with the Yang family, one is the fourth and third princes, and the other is the fifth and third princes, and the two families absolutely belong to the top wealthy families in the Han Dynasty.
The foundation of the Yuan family is in Runan, and it can be said that Runan is the place where the Yuan family's clans gather, and Yuan Huai is the representative figure of the Yuan family in the court.
Yuan Huaigui is the third duke, and his influence in the court is very great, and he doesn't know how many old officials come to visit on weekdays, so that Yuan Huai's mansion is like a city, showing the style of a wealthy family.
At this time, in the side hall, Yuan Huai was sitting there in a gorgeous costume, gently sipping tea, while Yuan Shao was standing beside Yuan Huai.
Yuan Shao still looked very respectful in front of Yuan Huai, and told Yuan Huai about the fact that Jian Shuo had placed them in the camp today.
Yuan Huai, who was brushing his beard, raised his eyebrows, and slowly put down the teacup in his hand and said: "Oh, with the old man's understanding of Jian Shuo, he definitely doesn't have such a quick wit, if he really has such a resource, I'm afraid you won't be able to make any waves under him." β
Yuan Shao's face was calm, Yuan Huai could see this, and Yuan Shao could also see it, but Yuan Shao was a little unclear about who was giving advice to Jian Shuo.
After all, he was able to come up with the idea of suppressing a few of them in a short period of time, and this person not only has quick wit, but also great talent.
Yuan Shao, who has always liked to make friends with talented people, first thought of not looking for trouble with the other party, but thinking about how to find the person behind Jian Shuo, and then go to make friends with him.
has always been backed by the Yuan family, and whenever Yuan Shao makes friends with people, as long as he plays the signboard of the Yuan family, there are few people who are not close to him.
Of course, Yuan Shao knew that these people were coming in the name of the fourth and third princes of their Yuan family, but Yuan Shao really didn't care, all he cared about was whether these people were really talented or not.
Seeing Yuan Shao wandering in front of him, Yuan Huai shook his head slightly, what kind of temperament Yuan Shao was, how he didn't know, and he didn't even have to think about it to know what Yuan Shao was thinking at this time.
However, Yuan Huai looked at Yuan Shao and said: "Originally, if there was really someone behind Jian Shuo's back, then this person was only afraid that it would not be our people, and if you want to make friends with each other, I am afraid that it is unlikely." β
Yuan Shao's eyes narrowed, and then he chuckled: "If you don't give it a try, how will you know." β
Just glanced at Yuan Shao, Yuan Huai no longer persuaded him, Yuan Shao already had his own ideas, he could remind him, but he would not take ideas for Yuan Shao.
At this time, Yuan Huai said: "Jian Shuo's actions are reasonable, even if you make a fuss, I'm afraid you won't be able to change anything, but don't worry too much, Jian Shuo's personal strength is not bad, but if you want him to lead the army and train the army, it is absolutely impossible, and when the time comes, it will be embarrassing." β
Whether it was Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, or Yuan Huai, almost no one was optimistic that Jian Shuo and Chu Yi would be able to train their troops.
In this era, those who can train soldiers, and even have military heirlooms, are almost all family families, if they are not family families, there is no such background at all, can ordinary people really have access to those precious art of war classics?
And what kind of background are Jian Shuo and Chu Yi, it would be strange if they had come into contact with the book of war, and even if they had the conditions to contact the book of war, if they wanted to learn, they had to have talent, anyway, Yuan Huai and Yuan Shao would never think that among the eunuchs, someone could be the commander of the army.
Yuan Shao said with a smile: "So my nephew didn't care at all, just to give Jian Shuo and Chu Yi more soldiers and horses, but it was just a group of rabble." β
Just when Yuan Shao and Yuan Huai were discussing Jian Shuo and Chu Yi in the mansion, Chun Yuqiong and Xia Mu were at the Chunxiang Mansion banquet to vent their resentment.
Although it was said that after Yuan Shao's explanation, he made up his mind to see Chu Yi and Jian Shuo's jokes, but Jian Shuo made it clear that he suppressed them, which made them hold a grudge after all, and at this time, he was telling his friends about Jian Shuo and Chu Yi.
Chun Yuqiong and Xia Mu and their friends are also quite high-status people in the Jingshi, so they naturally know the factions in the eight schools of the West Garden.
Chun Yuqiong and if they can get along with Jian Shuo and Chu Yi, I am afraid that Liu Hong, who is the Son of Heaven, will have to consider whether to replace Jian Shuo.
None of these people are optimistic that Jian Shuo and Chu Yi can fight Yuan Shao and Chun Yuqiong in the army, but at this time, listening to Chun Yuqiong complaining to them, fools can realize that Jian Shuo and they really put Yuan Shao and Chun Yuqiong together.
Zhao Rong, who was dressed in a green shirt, raised his glass at Xia Mu and smiled: "Brother Xia, why should you be angry with the eunuchs, when they find out that they are not the material for commanding the army, they will definitely beg Brother Xia to help them train the army, and at that time, they will lose face." β
Xia Mu smiled and said: "Yes, the day when the Eighth School of the West Park became an army is the time when Jian Shuo and Chu Yi are embarrassed. Don't forget to read the jokes. β
The Qinglou Restaurant itself is a place with many people, and Chun Yuqiong and the others are hanging in places like this, clearly wanting to spread the news through this method.
There are not a few people who pay attention to the Eighth School of the West Park in the Beijing Division, but the Eighth School of the West Park is newly built, no matter how much these people pay attention to, there is no way, after all, the Eighth School of the West Park does not even have manpower now, and there is no goal to find out the news.
The words of Chun Yuqiong and Xia Mu in Chunxiang Building made people realize that the open and secret struggle between several major forces above the court continued within the Eighth School of the West Garden.
Imperial power, relatives, and families can be said to be fully displayed in the small West Garden Eight Schools.
Of course, many people also learned from Chun Yuqiong's words how Jian Shuo suppressed Chun Yuqiong and Yuan Shao by limiting the number of soldiers, but people couldn't help but glance at Jian Shuo, but no one was optimistic about Jian Shuo.
Because Jian Shuo limited the number of soldiers that each school could recruit, most of the good families who came from various counties in Gyeonggi naturally went straight to Chun Yuqiong and Yuan Shao, as for the place where Jian Shuo and Chu Yi were located, it can be said that the population is sparse, and there is no way to compare with the crowded scene of Yuan Shao and them.
Jian Shuo sat there at this moment, looking at the scene of Yuan Shao and Chun Yuqiong recruiting troops in the distance, and then looked at the sparse people in front of him and Chu Yi, and almost exploded.
You must know that even where Cao Cao's school is located, there are many more people rushing to him here than the two of them here, how can this not make Jian Shuo's heart suffocate.
Of course, the most important thing is that Jian Shuo obviously noticed that many people around him seemed to be pointing at them, Jian Shuo was not stupid, how could he not see that these people were clearly some powerful people and children of families in the Jingshi.
Obviously, the news of the recruitment of the Eighth School of the West Park alarmed these people, so that these people all ran over to see the excitement.
If they were like Yuan Shao and Chun Yuqiong who were crowded here, he would naturally show his face in front of these people, but unfortunately they didn't even have a few people here at this time, wouldn't it make people see a joke?
The more he thought about it in his heart, the more Jian Shuo who was sitting there felt that the eyes that looked at him were full of mockery.
For a while, Jian Shuo was restless, and the whole person seemed a little absent-minded, but Chu Yi sat there with the appearance of an old monk, not affected by the outside world at all.
With a light cough, Jian Shuo glanced at Chu Yi and said in a low voice: "It's really annoying to me, don't these people see that we are also recruiting soldiers here?" β
Chu Yi glanced at Jian Shuo and chuckled, "Isn't this situation expected?" We don't have a good reputation among the people, and it is not easy for someone to come to our side. β
Jian Shuo smiled bitterly and said: "Even if this is the case, but this number is too small, I think Yuan Shao and Chun Yuqiong are all going to be recruited, and we have only recruited hundreds of people, at this rate, I'm afraid that we won't even be able to recruit our men and horses in ten days and half a month." β
Hearing this, Chu Yi put down the roster he was looking through in his hand, Jian Shuo glanced at it, and clearly saw that there were some traces of names on the roster.
Paying attention to the roster in Chu Yi's hand, Jian Shuo said to Chu Yi with curiosity: "Chu Yi, you really plan to transfer people from local counties and counties." β
Chu Yi bowed his head slightly and said, "If that's not the case, Brother Jian, when do you think we will be able to gather so many soldiers." β
Jian Shuo was stunned for a moment, then reacted, looked at Chu Yi and said in a trembling voice: "Chu Yi, you wouldn't have expected such a situation a long time ago, so you will beg Your Majesty to allow us to transfer people from local counties and counties into Beijing." β
Chu Yi just shrugged his shoulders, although he didn't answer positively, but in Jian Shuo's opinion, Chu Yi simply admitted it, and for a while, Jian Shuo looked at Chu Yi with a bit of amazement in his eyes.
He never thought that Chu Yi would have such wisdom, it was simply one step and three steps.
Taking a deep breath, Jian Shuo showed a rare smile on his face, patted Chu Yi's shoulder and got up and said: "I'll leave it to you to take care of it here, I can see it, I'm not the material for the commander of the army at all, fortunately with you, otherwise, the position of the eighth colonel of the West Park as a military captain is probably just an ornament." β
At this time, Chun Yuqiong and Xia Mu had almost recruited the limited quota of more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, but Chun Yuqiong's attention was not on the soldiers they selected at all, but on Jian Shuo and Chu Yi from afar.
The scene they are most looking forward to has appeared, and the comparison between the two parties is really in response to that sentence, there is no harm without comparison.
"Haha, I'm afraid I'm going to be ashamed of myself, does he really think that he can suppress us in this way?"
"Hmph, if it takes more than half a month, Chu Yi and Jian Shuo can't even recruit their subordinates, then they will inevitably become the laughing stock of the Beijing Division, I really look forward to that day."
Chun Yuqiong's eyes narrowed, and he said in a low voice: "Send some more people to pour dirty water on Jian Shuo and Chu Yi on me in private, so that those good families will not choose to join Chu Yi and Jian Shuo and their subordinates." β
In fact, under normal circumstances, Jian Shuo and Chu Yi will definitely not have such a small number of people, after all, Jian Shuo and Chu Yi represent the imperial court, followed by their identity as eunuchs, those good families came to the name of the Eighth School of the West Garden, maybe some people will mind the identity of Chu Yi and Jian Shuo, but at least most of the people don't mind.
Obviously, the reason for this situation is that behind this, Chun Yuqiong and others kept pouring dirty water on Chu Yi and Jian Shuo among those good families who entered Beijing.
Jian Shuo got up and left, leaving Chu Yi there to support the scene, but with the efforts of Chun Yuqiong and them, the number of Chu Yi and their side was always sparse, and even gradually there were no more people willing to come.
If this was changed to Jian Shuo, I am afraid that he would have been angry like thunder a long time ago, but Chu Yi sat there with a calm and relaxed posture, and he was not affected in the slightest.
However, the red pen in Chu Yi's hand kept scribbling over the roster in his hand.
When Chu Yi put down one of the volumes, that volume was Liangzhou Jincheng, in that volume of the roster, Chu Yi sketched the names of some soldiers and young generals, among which Chu Yi was quite impressed was a Qu Chang named Yan Xing, although Chu Yi said that he was not sure that this Yan Xing was the Yan Xing who killed Ma Mengqi several times, but Chu Yi did not believe that Yan Xing, who was born in Liangzhou Jincheng, and at this time, Yan Xing, who could sit firmly in the position of a Qu Chang, could be another person. There are 200 people in a song, if Yan Xing is which Yan Xing, then the song soldiers under his direct jurisdiction are not expected to be too bad, so Chu Yi directly sketched Yan Xing and the song soldiers under his jurisdiction and transferred them to Beijing.
Picking up another volume on the side, Chu Yi's eyes froze, but this volume was Jiuyuan County, Wuyuan County, and a tun general entered Chu Yi's sight.
Jiuyuan Lu Bu, at this time, he was actually a general in the Wuyuan County Army, and at the same time, Chu Yi also saw a few familiar names, Gao Shun,
