Chapter 529: The New Forces of the Chang'an Court
Just when Xuzhou was surging, a major event also happened in Luoyang.
Situ Xunshuang finally died of illness at the age of 66.
Compared with history, Xun Shuang in this time and space lived for three more years.
As the only one left in the Xun family's eight dragon fruits, Xun Shuang's departure caused a huge earthquake in the entire imperial court, in the entire Shilin, and in the entire ancient literature and scripture world.
The students of ancient literature and scriptures who mourned for Xun Shuang, as well as the scholars who longed for Xun Shuang, poured into Beijing more than 10,000 people.
The Son of Heaven Liu Wei issued a decree saying: Xun Shuang is a good person, his ambition is noble, and he is a benevolent man.
When Xun Shuang was dying, he instructed Xun Yu to bury him in Chang'an on the spot, and not to waste material and financial resources by removing the body back to Yingchuan.
Xun Yu strictly obeyed Xun Shuang's intentions, on the one hand, he set up a mourning hall in the Xun Mansion of the Beijing Division, and on the other hand, he sent people to Nanyang to find Xun Shuang's son Xun Di and other sons to enter Beijing to keep filial piety for Xun Shuang.
Xun Di is now an official under Yuan Shao's account, and after hearing the news, he bowed to Yuan Shao.
Xun Di's academic attainments are extremely high, but his political and strategic abilities are average, and the reason why Yuan Shao kept him under his command was not to use his talents, but to use his name, so he let Xun Di go, and Yuan Shao was not distressed.
Now, the situation in Jingzhou and Yuzhou has been decided, and he Yuan Shao has already dominated the south, and there is one less Xun Di, which is no big problem.
In addition to the ancient scriptures and Qingliu who admired Xun Shuang from all over the world, the heroic overlords from all over the country also sent people to Chang'an to mourn this old man of ancient scriptures.
Among them, Liu Jian is naturally included.
And Liu Jian sent a total of three envoys to Chang'an to express condolences and mourning, namely Sun Qian, Wei You, and Duan Xun.
After the three arrived in Chang'an, they expressed their condolences to the Xun family on behalf of Liu Jian.
For Liu Jian's three messengers, Xun Di didn't feel anything, after all, there were too many people who came to mourn, but when Xun You received these three people, he felt a little strange......
Xun You couldn't say what it was like, anyway, he always felt that these three people looked at him...... Sort of that.
But Xun You didn't care too much.
After Sanqi, Xun Di, as the son of man, was the main keeper of filial piety, and Xun You, who was a grandchild, was mainly responsible for assisting in the reception.
After all, there were no planes and trains in the Han Dynasty, and after many people learned about Xun Shuang's death, they rushed to mourn from all over the world, and after arriving in Chang'an, it may be a month or two, or even a season later.
Therefore, for a character like Xun Shuang, the visit and mourning period of the mourning hall is generally very long.
And on this day, the Li family of Jiyin came to mourn several famous ancient scriptures, and the person who recommended them was Dong Zhao, who was equivalent to the county.
And Liu Jian's three envoys also came to the mourning hall with a few people.
Xun You didn't understand why these people were mixed together, but he still entertained these people according to etiquette.
These people came all the way to mourn Xun Shuang, and their identities were not bad, especially the three people led by Sun Qianwei and others represented the overlord of Hebei.
When Xun Shuang was alive, through the matter of General Fuyuan, the Xun family and Liu Jian had a political relationship, and they were not strangers to each other.
So this meal, Xun You said that he had to accompany him to eat it in person.
He keenly felt that this meal would bring him some surprises.
After eating for a while, Dong Zhao suddenly spoke.
"Brother Gongda, in fact, this time all the virtuous people have come to Chang'an Ciming to pay their filial piety, and there is one more thing, if you want to talk to Brother Gongda, Dong Zhao was invited by several virtuous people, and I came here today to be a middleman to introduce you both,"
"And with me and a few friends of the Jiyin Li family, it also seems that we all come from all sides, and we will not be easily suspicious of outsiders."
Xun Yu said in his heart, hehe, don't you say this to make it clear that there is indeed something here?
But think about it, if Liu Jian sends someone to Xun Shuang to pay his filial piety, he can send anyone, but this Sun Qian is a famous messenger lobbyist under Liu Jian, and he represents Liu Jian to pay his filial piety, so he must have something important to discuss...... It's not as simple as mourning.
Sun Qian arched his hand at Xun You and said: "Actually, I waited for this time to come to Chang'an, one is to mourn for Duke Ciming, and the other is to meet with the representative general and Mr. Gongda. ”
When Xun You heard this, he was quite surprised: "A certain person is a vulgar and infamous person, so why should General Lao worry about it?" ”
Sun Gan laughed when he heard this: "Mr. Gongda is too modest, Mr. is a genius in the world, and he is also a handsome figure of the third generation of the Yingchuan Xun clan. ”
"The great general has long admired the name of Mr. Gongda, and today I asked me to come and meet Mr. because there is a major matter related to the direction of the imperial court, and I want to discuss it with Mr."
Xun You said solemnly: "I don't know what General Fuyuan has to say to You?" ”
Sun Qian said: "The general knows that Mr. Gongda is the leader of the next generation of the Xun clan in Yingchuan, and my teacher Zheng Kangcheng also has a lot of praise for the Xun clan. ”
"Yang Biao, Wang Yun, Chun Yujia and other leaders of the modern literary family, is a major force in the court, Dong Xiangguo controls the government, there are more than ten thousand fierce generals who can fight habitually, and there is a power in the military of the DPRK and China, on the other hand, the ancient literature and scriptures of the world are highly talented and clear, and now the right to speak in the court is getting weaker and weaker...... In the past, it all relied on Xun Situ to support the overall situation. ”
"Now that the Duke of Ciming has passed away, Qingliu has no leader in the court, which is really not a blessing in the world...... Although interfering in the government is not the act of virtuous ministers, after all, the world is in turmoil, and ordinary behavior cannot be ...... The general means that there needs to be a Qingliu scholar in this court to point out the way forward for the Son of Heaven, so as not to be confused by the traitorous ministers, after all, the Han family is declining, and the people of the four seas are mostly caught in war and suffering, but they must not take another wrong step. ”
Xun You looked around at everyone present, then narrowed his eyes and said, "General Fuyuan, let the prince come and talk to me about this...... Could it be that you want me to lead the Qingliu people in the court? ”
"I'm shallow, how can I take on such a heavy responsibility?"
Sun Qian hurriedly said: "Why should the public be too modest? In the past, Ciming Gong came to the imperial court from Yingchuan, and the Xun family did not bring anyone else, but only brought Mr. Gongda to come, which shows that Ciming Gong has trust in Mr. Gongda, and he has high hopes for Mr. Gongda. ”
"At present, the only person who can inherit the will of Duke Ciming and integrate the Qingliu forces in the DPRK is Mr. Gongda, if Mr. Gongda does not give up, the general is willing to provide foreign aid."
A sentence that the general is willing to provide foreign aid can be said to have deeply touched Xun You's heart.
In fact, even if Sun Qian and the others don't come to talk to Xun You about this matter today, Xun You should inherit Xun Shuang's legacy and carry the banner of the Qingliu Group in Chang'an City.
Of course, although Xun You is intelligent and quite famous, compared with Xun Shuang's appeal, it is still a lot worse after all.
Although Xun Shuang has high hopes for Xun You, Xun You has no confidence in whether he can take on this important responsibility, after all, the people he wants to deal with in the court are Dong Zhuo, Yang Biao, Wang Yun, Chun Yujia and others.
None of them are fuel-efficient lamps.
In this case, if Xun Yu has no foreign aid, what can he do to compete with them
But now that Liu Jian took the initiative to join forces with him, Xun You's heart suddenly added a lot of confidence.
If Liu Jianken is Xun You's foreign aid, coupled with the support of Zheng Xue's faction, then Xun You will have enough confidence to establish a force established by the Qingliu Group in the DPRK.
Although this force has no military power, it is enough for Dong Zhuo, Yang Biao, Wang Yun and others not to be underestimated.
Of course, perhaps in a few years, it is not impossible for the Qingliu Group to grasp a certain amount of military power in the DPRK with the help of Liu Jian.
For Xun Yu himself, a new era and unique opportunities for him are coming.
