Four hundred and eighteen, Xun Shuang didn't want to go through it a second time
Since the death of his eldest daughter Xun Cai, Xun Le has been his favorite daughter.
Looking at the pearl in his hand, Xun Shuang's feeling of stuffiness became more and more obvious.
"There is one thing, my father wants you to do it, although you may not be willing to do it, and it may not be a good thing for you, but for the Xun family, it is beneficial, and the benefits may be very great."
"That means that if the benefits are not obtained, the disadvantages will be very great?"
Xun Le looked straight at his father and asked a question that Xun Shuang was reluctant to answer.
Sighing, Xun Shuang nodded helplessly.
"You are the father's most beloved child, and our Xun family also has many daughters, but this matter, only you can do it, the father really can't find a more suitable person, maybe others may not agree, and there will be many twists and turns."
"Father, please speak up."
"My father wants to give you to the hussar general Liu Bei Xuande as a concubine."
"Hussar General Liu Bei ......"
A glint flashed in Xun Le's eyes: "I heard that he is the most proficient general in the whole Han Dynasty, and he wiped out 300,000 Xianbei in one battle?" Back then, he was still famous in Zhenyang, and he was a famous talent, right? ”
"That's what happened."
Xun Shuang said slowly: "He is not only the general who is the best at fighting, but also the overlord of the debate in terms of scripture and righteousness, one person against nine people, won a complete victory, and even jumped up with a humble body and became the lord of the valve, such a character is rare in a hundred years." ”
Xun Le nodded and asked another question.
"How does he look?"
"Eight feet long, with a face like a crown of jade, a dignified appearance, and a graceful demeanor."
Xun Shuang said with a smile: "If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have such a big reputation, and he imagined for my father many times that a character like him, if he was born in a famous family like my Xun family, he would have become famous a long time ago, and there was no need to wait until today." ”
Regarding Liu Bei's appearance, no one who has seen him has raised any negative opinions.
His appearance is not top-notch, but if he wants to say ordinary, no one will agree, at least in Xun Shuang's opinion, Liu Bei's appearance is second only to Yuan Shao, a handsome guy recognized by the people of Luoyang, and he is better than many scholars.
Since this is the case, Xun Le has no problem.
After a moment of silence, she nodded.
"In that case, father, I do."
Xun Shuang was slightly surprised.
"Would you like to? As a father, I thought you would be very unwilling, noisy, crying, after all, it is not to marry him as a wife, but a concubine, although there is a family, your status will not be low, but in any case, it is also a concubine, and when you see your wife, your status is not as good as hers, won't you be dissatisfied? ”
Xun Le looked at Xun Shuang, and there seemed to be some sarcasm and helplessness in his eyes.
"Father, does the daughter have a choice?"
Xun Shuang was silent, knowing that the question he asked was really a bit hypocritical, a little unnecessary, and a little funny.
Asking such a question at such a time can really make people laugh.
Xun Le then laughed.
"If you don't have a choice, why make your father unhappy? This is a meaningless thing, no matter how much you cry, no matter how much you struggle, there is no point, what the family decides, what the father decides, how can the daughter be independent? ”
Xun Shuang was silent for a long time before he let out a long sigh.
"Le, this matter, it may be ......"
"My father is always the most thoughtful."
Xun Le shook his head slightly: "I can't give such a heroic person as a concubine, and my daughter doesn't want to, but I don't know what kind of person this hussar general is." ”
Looking at Xun Le's seemingly relaxed expression, Xun Shuang's heart became heavier and heavier.
But he is not only Xun Le's father, he is also the speaker of the Xun family, and he is responsible for the survival of the Xun family, and he is quite helpless about many things.
But looking at this beloved daughter, he was a little shaken.
At the beginning, his eldest daughter Xun Cai chose to commit suicide under his arbitrariness and arbitrariness, which was a pain that he could never forget in his life.
It is precisely because of Xun Cai's determination that Xun Shuang repented and relaxed a little on Xun Le's education, and did not want to dominate Xun Le's life too much.
He is old and can no longer accept the loss of his beloved daughter again, at the beginning, he paid the price for his arbitrariness, the white-haired man sent the black-haired man, and now, he has relented.
"Le, for the time being, my father doesn't plan to talk to Liu Xuande about this matter, you still have a chance to refuse, you can go back and think about it carefully, if you are really unwilling, your father will never force you, unless you are willing, in your marriage, your father supports you, and your father listens to you, whoever you choose, is who!"
Xun Le was slightly surprised.
"Is my father serious?"
"Seriously."
Xun Shuang immediately nodded and said: "As long as you are unwilling, your father will never force you, you are your father's most beloved child, even if your father is blamed by the world, he will not let you do what you don't want to do, whoever you want to promise, your father will definitely support you." ”
Xun Le's expression couldn't say whether she was happy or regretful, anyway, she didn't say anything, nodded, and left.
After Xun Le left, Xun Shuang's mood became more and more depressed.
Xun You had written to him before, suggesting that he make a decision immediately and form a deeper alliance with Liu Bei, with Liu Bei as the main umbrella to provide him with the help of the family.
Because Xun You believes that the momentum of Liu's take-off in Zhuo County, Zhuo County, has been unstoppable, Liu Bei's foundation in Guanxi has been solid, and his subordinates are unimaginably strong, once he intervenes in the situation in Luoyang, Liu Bei will have a great hope of winning, and once he wins, he will inevitably expand his power to Kanto with the power of victory.
At that time, Chen Liu and Yingchuan will bear the brunt.
Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao and Liu Bei had a good relationship, and had funded Liu Bei to go to Liangzhou, if Liu Bei won, Zhang Miao would definitely make the attitude he should have, and the locals of Chen Liu would not have any doubts, and Chen Liujun would inevitably fall to Liu Bei in an all-round way.
And what about Yingchuan?
With Xun's current state of great reputation and low power, it is very difficult to compete with fighters like Yuan and Yang, and cooperating with Liu Bei is the best way to change the status quo.
If Xun Shuang wants to change, he should give something, and Liu Bei's feedback will definitely make Xun inexhaustible.
It's like when Xun Qi and Xun Yu paid something in exchange for the survival and continued prosperity of the Xun family, then now, maybe it's the turn of the other clansmen to pay something.
Of course, Xun Shuang also knows this truth.
But Xun Shuang is old and soft-hearted, looking at the pearl in his beloved palm, thinking of the pearl he once lost, he has never been ruthless to make an arbitrary decision.
Moreover, Xun Shuang thought about it, this is him Liu Bei begging for help, this is him Liu Bei begging for help from my Xun family, why should I be so embarrassed?
In the face of Yuan and He, it is not certain whether he can succeed! Why do you want my Xun to make such a gesture?
The situation in Luoyang is weird, no matter whether He Jin and Yuan Kui can seize the dominant power and promote the prince's argument to the throne, the one who will inherit the throne in the future is basically the prince's debate.
Liu Bei and He Jin are enemies, aren't they afraid of being retaliated against by the emperor's prince in the future?
At this time, the Xun family and Liu Bei walked so close, is it really appropriate to push the beloved palm pearl into the fire pit?
With all kinds of doubts and strong dissatisfaction, Xun Shuang frowned, and after thinking deeply, he wrote back to Xun You and told Xun You that he decided to wait and see what the situation was in the future before making a decision.
He doesn't worry about missing out.
The Xun family is also a famous family, even if the opportunity is really missed, the Xun family also has enough bargaining power, and now the only Kanto Gaomen clan who can reach cooperation with Liu Bei is the Xun family, if Liu Bei wants to stretch his hand to the Kanto region and reach to Yingchuan, he can't get around the Xun family.
It is he who needs the Xun family, not the Xun family who needs him, so Liu Bei can't be allowed not to open up!
Xun's family experienced a last resort, and now, Xun Shuang doesn't want to go through it a second time.
He also didn't think that Liu Bei had the qualifications to let the Xun family experience a second compulsion.
What Xun Shuang didn't know was that at the same moment when he sent the news writing letter to Xun You, Liu Hui, who was in charge of intelligence transmission, came to Liu Bei with Zhang Rang's top-secret letter.
"This is a top-secret letter sent by a reliable person, according to him, only you can read it, no one else can read it, I don't know what important information it is."
