On the second day, Liu Qing was still asleep, and a guest from the Xun family came to report and handed over a letter, wanting to invite Liu Jun, the Taishou of Runan, to Xunfu to talk about it.

Liu Qing woke up in an instant, hurriedly tidied up his appearance, combed carefully, changed into a Confucian robe, and put on a sword, and was about to go out.

Li Min stopped Liu Qing and instructed: "Guozhu, if you go to the Xun family, you must pay careful attention to the etiquette, Wen Ruo and Jing Wen are fine, if you are the most visible, if you have any words, you must be forbearing, the head of the Yingchuan family of the Xun family, gather the hope of the world's corporals, pay attention!"

Liu Qing thanked Li Min and went to Xunfu with the guards.

Xun Mansion does not have much wealth, but the spirit of the scribes is very strong, and even the guards at the door of the mansion are actually worn by Confucian scholars. Liu Qing reported his name, and immediately someone brought him into the mansion, all of them with respectful expressions and careful and polite words.

Liu Qinghao sighed, when he was a county lieutenant and a school lieutenant before, how could anyone have been so polite to him, that is, ordinary small families did not encounter courtesy, but now it is two thousand stones, and he knows the prestige of a county guard!

When he entered the main hall, the person at the head was a Confucian scholar and a man dressed as a scholar. According to legend, Xun Jing's virtue is remarkable in the world, and he is called a hermit, who should be the person dressed as a Taoist priest, and the other person should be Xun Yu's father, Xun Sui.

When he greeted the guests, Liu Qing returned the courtesy.

After Xun Jing saluted and greeted the visitors first, he left on his own, and later Xun Qi apologized: "Brother is a good old man, he is a hermit, and the prince of the mansion forgive me."

Liu Qing said casually: "It's okay, I also realized the principle of a hermit in Luoyang."

Xun Yu was curious: "What?"

Liu Qing explained: "Someone once told me that the big is hidden in the court, the middle is hidden in the city, and the small is hidden in the wild."

The children of the Xun family are welcoming Liu Qing today, and there are many people coming, looking forward to Liu Qing's new Taishou being able to take office, and at this time hearing what Liu Qing said is embarrassing, this is saying that Xun Jing can't escape the world, only for himself, regardless of the world.

Xun Yu suddenly had a bad impression of Liu Qing, but he only thought that he was young and ambitious, famous all over the world, and he was arrogant, and he didn't say much.

Xun Qi didn't expect Liu Qing to scold when he opened his mouth, thinking that he blamed Xun Jing for being rude, and secretly scolded Xun Yu in his heart for not knowing anyone, why did such an arrogant person also say that he was like a Ming Jun, and said, "My brother is used to being lazy. Don't blame, don't blame."

Who knew that Liu Qingdao: "I haven't finished speaking, I will return to the human: whether it is a hermit or a courtier, you need to know whether you are happy with things or sad about yourself. If you live in a high temple, you will worry about its people; is far away from the rivers and lakes, and is worried about its king. In this case, it is hidden or not, so what does it matter?"

Xun Qi read the scriptures deeply, heard the words, and exclaimed: "Liu Jun's words are very good, or he can write on bamboo silk!" I never thought that Liu Jun would have such insight! Fang knows that there is no vanity under the fame!"

Xun Yu said: "Liu Jun's words are secretly in line with the way of a sage! I see that Liu Jun has a good temperament, and it is rumored that Liu Jun commands soldiers and horses like an arm, but I never thought that Liu Jun also knew the way of the scriptures?"

In troubled times, the monarch chooses the minister, and the minister also chooses the king, Liu Qingzhi is his temptation, and laughed and said, "The words of the sage, is it vain? But in today's troubled times, we also need a way to govern the world!"

"What are troubled times?"

"Man is like mustard, and life is like duckweed."

"Where did the troubled times begin?"

"I can't speak."

"Why don't you dare to say it?"

"Heaven and Earth Monarchs and Masters dare not speak."

"Now that Dong Zhuo is in Beijing, where does the world want to go?"

"I can't speak."

"Why don't you dare to speak?"

"The fortune of the country is here, so I dare not say it."

"Where do you want to go?"

"Secure the people and protect the country, and help the world and enrich the country."

After a few words, Xun Yu was very agreeable in his heart, and he saw that some of the juniors of the Xun family were about to breathe fire in their eyes when they looked at Liu Qing, and they all motioned to Xun Qi and Xun Yu to speak for him.

After all, the Ming Lord is rare, and it is not like Xun Yu, Xun Chen, and Xun Yu They are famous all over the world, and some are ministers and state uncles, and it is his best choice to follow Liu Qing to Runan to settle down at this time.

Xun Qi also saw it and asked Liu Qingdao, "Liu Junguo is not an ordinary person! I don't have to worry about the marquis, my juniors are now at home, but there is

What Liu Jun sees is eye-catching, and he can recruit it to help him in his duties."

Say some flattering words first, and then what I really want to say, Liu Qing realized that this old man called himself here to stuff himself with some juniors who are not in the Xun family.

Seeing that Xun Yu didn't mean anything, and didn't even see Xun Chen and Xun Yue, Liu Qing was disappointed, smiled and said, "I'm not familiar with the gentlemen of the hall yet, wait a while, I'll see if there is a position."

immediately withdrew from the hall and saluted: "Xun Jun will meet again, Wen Ruo, we will meet again when we have a fate."

After Liu Qing and the juniors of the Xun family left, Xun Chen came out of the back screen, and said disapprovingly: "This person is just a little anxious, just because he also commented on the third uncle, but he was lucky to be too guarded, what is the spirit of our Xun Mansion?" It's enough for me to look at it but not keep it too much!"

Xun Qi lectured, "What did you say?! Is this what a sage disciple should say? Can you see through this person? Don't quit yet!"

Xun Chen's face showed disdain, and he secretly said that Xun Qian had no vision, and went to the backyard by himself.

Xun Qi said angrily: "Youruo is too presumptuous! This person is not only brave and resourceful, far-reaching, but also has fierce generals to snuggle up and help, but Shaozhi Shiwen helps him to succeed, and over time, Liu Qingqi may not be able to establish a career."

Xun Yu nodded yes and said, "If you are initially conquered by Yuan, you will go to Jizhou in the near future, and it is normal to be arrogant for a while. Liu Qing is not so simple."

He also took out Xun Yu's letter and Xun Qi said: "Gongda also wrote to mention this person, but Gongda seems to have some opinions about him, saying that he is cunning and insidious, but he seems to respect him, saying that he is eloquent and majestic, and he who is safe in the world must be this person."

Xun Qi smiled and said, "Your nephew is also very funny."

Xun Yu said: "Gongda has been lonely since he was a child, without a father or mother, his grandfather died when he was thirteen years old, except for poetry and history, he rarely talked about it, and he talked about Liu Qing at length on this letter, and also mentioned a person, saying that it was Liu Qing's adviser, this person's intelligence is not under me and him, I have not seen this person today and yesterday by Liu Qing's side."

Xun Qi asked, "By the way, how is Han Jizhou receiving you?"

Xun Yu secretly regretted but couldn't break the contract, and replied: "Han Jizhou summoned me to Jizhou, I promised him first, in the war-torn land of Yingchuan, I want to go to Jizhou to avoid chaos, uncle and them will go together?"

Xun Qian touched his beard, stood up and paced again, and thought for a while and said, "As the saying goes; Cast nets on all sides, fish in all directions, we are such a famous family every time in troubled times is so peaceful to inherit the family lineage, if you and you are in Jizhou, you take my tribe to Jizhou, and the rest are left in Yingchuan. To the outside world, it is said that these people are difficult to leave their homeland and do not want to go to Jizhou."

Xun Yu nodded yes, secretly thinking about Liu Qing's subordinates, thinking about when to compete with him.

When Liu Qing returned to Li Min's mansion, there was already a scribe waiting for him.
