Three Kingdoms: God-level selection

When Bao Xin heard Yuan Shao's question, he turned his gaze to Su Yan, narrowed his eyes, and said:

"I seem to have heard from Meng De that this person is a new disciple of Zigan Gong. He is currently serving as the governor of Zhuo County in Youzhou. I don't know what he came to Beijing for this time."

"What's his name?"

Yuan Shao asked

"It seems to be called.....Su Yan, courtesy name Ziyang, was from Ji County, Youzhou. His father, Su Ping, was a deputy governor of Youzhou. The Su family was considered a scholarly family in Youzhou.

Bao Xin recalled the information he had seen and answered:

""Is there anything special about him?"

Yuan Shao asked.

What he meant was to ask if Su Yan had any achievements or famous places that could attract popularity.

Bao Xin thought for a while and said,"This man was the magistrate of Zhuo County eight months ago. During his tenure, the people of Zhuo County lived and worked in peace and contentment. He should be very capable in governing."

"Later, when the Wuhuan people came south to attack, he led his men to stop and wipe out 6,000 Wuhuan cavalry. When Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou, learned about it, he recommended him to the court as the governor of Zhuo County. From this, it can be seen that his command ability should not be weak."

"Is there anything else?"

Yuan Shao asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, Xu Shao, a famous scholar from Runan, once commented on him, saying that he had the appearance of turning bad times into good times, and he might become a high-ranking official in the future."

"What? Xu Shao has commented on him?"

When Yuan Shao heard this, his face finally changed.

Xu Shao was a famous scholar in the world, and everyone knew the reputation of Yuedanping. They had all asked him to comment on them.

Xu Shao's comments on them were mixed, some good and some bad, and he had never given such a high evaluation to a person.

Now that Su Yan has received this honor, they can't believe it.

"It seems that we have to go and pay a visit to this Su Yan. Come on, Yuncheng, Gonglu, let's go and meet him together."

Yuan Shao stood up and said to Bao Xin and Yuan Shu.

Bao Xin nodded and stood up, but Yuan Shu said with disdain:"Humph! He is just a person who seeks fame and reputation. He is not worthy of my friendship at all. Benchu and Yuncheng, you don't have to go."

Huh?

Yuan Shao and Bao Xin felt something was wrong when they heard this. From Yuan Shu's tone, it seemed that he had a grudge with Su Yan?

Immediately, Yuan Shao said in a deep voice:"Gonglu, I advise you not to mess around. That person can be given such a high evaluation by Xu Shao, he must be no ordinary person, and he is also a disciple of Lu Gong, you'd better not make trouble."

"Got it, got it, you guys go ahead, I’m not feeling well so I won’t go."

Yuan Shu was even more annoyed when he heard this, waved his hand and turned his head away.

Seeing this, the two of them sighed helplessly, then walked towards Su Yan with their cups.

Yuan Shu watched the two of them walk over, and couldn’t help but gritted his teeth and said,"Humph! You are just a poor boy of humble origin, why are you worthy of being with me?"

Thinking of what Yuan Shao had just said, he said in a low voice,"Yuan Shao, you are just a bastard’s son, yet you dare to teach me a lesson, I will make you pay when I get back."

Watching the two of them walk over to Su Yan and start chatting with him, Yuan Shu stared at him intently, with a gleam in his eyes

"Since you think you are so powerful, I will make you look bad in front of everyone and ruin your reputation."

He sneered twice, and then found Zhao Rong, Feng Fang, and Xia Mou.

These three people were three of the eight new lieutenants of the Western Garden established by the Han Emperor last year, namely the left and right lieutenants of the auxiliary army, and the left lieutenant.

Because the eight lieutenants had great power and were in charge of most of the military power in the imperial city, they became the hot figures of the powerful.

The three were originally drinking and chatting, but Yuan Shu suddenly found them, which made them very confused.

"Gonglu, what do you want to talk to us about?"

Zhao Rong asked with a smile.

"Zhizhang, I want to ask you to do me a favor.

Yuan Shu said with a smile

"Oh? There are things that you, Yuan Gonglu, can't do? This is really strange, if you can't do it, how can we?" Feng Fang next to him said with a sinister smile.

Because Yuan Shu thought highly of himself, he felt that his family of four generations of three officials were very powerful and no one could compare to him, so he didn't take the rising stars like Feng Fang seriously.

Feng Fang and others saw it, but they didn't say it, but they hated him in their hearts.

Yuan Shu didn't care about their looks, pointed at Su Yan not far away and said,"Did you see that man?"

Zhao Rong and others looked over, and Yuan Shu continued,"His name is Su Yan, he is the new disciple of Lord Lu and the prefect of Zhuo County in Youzhou. I have a grudge against him, and I would like to ask you to help me deal with him."

"Lu Gong’s disciple?"

The three of them were stunned, and then Xia Mu said,"Gong Lu, how did you get involved with him?"

"He is the disciple of Lord Lu, who is now the guest of honor of the general. He was summoned back by His Majesty this time to entrust him with an important task. Aren't you offending Lord Lu by doing this?"

Zhao Rong and Feng Fang did not say anything, but their eyes had already made their intention clear. They were unwilling to get involved in this mess.

Yuan Shu smiled and said,"The three of you are all among the Eight Colonels and are deeply trusted by His Majesty. Are you still afraid of him, a small prefect?"

"Lord Lu is a great man of integrity. Even if Su Yan was dealt with, it was only because he was incompetent. It has nothing to do with us. Lord Lu has no reason to cause trouble to us."

Seeing that the three were still hesitant, Yuan Shu said,"After the matter is done, I will invite you three to Qingyun Pavilion to have fun for three days, okay?"

"Are you serious?"

Zhao Rong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked hurriedly.

Qingyun Pavilion is the best leisure and entertainment venue in the entire Luoyang City. To put it bluntly, it is a brothel, and the person behind it is General He Jin.

Many of the women entertaining there are beauties who have participated in the palace selection.

They are as beautiful as fairies and have graceful figures. The top courtesans are all of the best in the world, comparable to the beauties and concubines in the palace.

Zhao Rong and others were fortunate enough to be invited there, and they could never forget the gentle land there after just one time.

They wanted to go again, but the consumption inside was sky-high, and even they could not afford it.

So when they heard Yuan Shu say that he wanted to invite them to have fun there for three days, it was like a dream, and they couldn't believe it.

"A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. I, Yuan Shu, will keep my word."

Yuan Shu patted his chest and promised.

Zhao Rong and the other two looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and fought!

After the three of them discussed the plan, Zhao Rong stood up and said to He Jin:

"General, it's rare for Lord Lu to return to the capital today. If the banquet is just about drinking and chatting, it would be too boring."

"Oh, what suggestions does General Zhao have?"

He Jin asked with a smile.

Zhao Rong cupped his hands and said,"The moon is round tonight, and the moonlight is bright and clear. I suggest that we use poetry to liven up the atmosphere!"
