Three Kingdoms

Chapter 884 Uninvited Guest (9)

Originally, a large group of Xun family members were in Yingchuan, and many people had different opinions on the matter of Xun Shuang being more focused on Xun Yu. However, Dong Zhuo sent Xu Rong to do it once, and later Li Jue and Guo Si did it again. After the looting, many members of the Xun family who stayed near Yingchuan suffered misfortunes, so some people remembered that Xun Yu had previously encouraged the Xun family to migrate, and they all felt that this Xun Yu might have some foresight...

Therefore, Xun Yu had more explicit and covert support than before.

Xi Zhicai picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, then smashed it twice casually. Apparently he disliked the taste of the tea soup. In front of Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai barely concealed anything, put down the tea bowl and said directly: "It tastes really bad, it's better than bad wine... Well, according to your ideas, what are you going to do?"

Xun Yu raised his eyes slightly, automatically ignored the first half of Xi Zhicai's sentence, and then said, "Aren't you already working on it?"

Xi Zhicai suddenly stiffened, then glanced at Xun Yu and said, "How do you know...Hey, actually you don't know..."

Xun Yu nodded, still speaking in a calm tone: "...but I know now."

Xi Zhicai rolled his eyes, feeling a little helpless. He was unprepared for a moment and followed Xun Yu's advice. However, he didn't have much anger, but asked: "Then what do you think?"

"Stubbornness is the beginning of evil, and the crime is unforgivable." Xun Yu said seriously.

Xi Zhicai laughed twice, nodded, and said: "As a clan member, I don't care about the country, but I am ambitious and kill my colleagues. This is a person who is incompetent and has no virtue. He can die."

Xun Yu sighed slightly and nodded silently.

Regarding what Xi Zhicai did, Xun Yu didn't think there was much of a problem. At least this person created the prelude for the feudal princes from all over the country to fight against each other, so he was the first to be killed by people who wanted to join forces.

Before the Han Dynasty completely collapsed, these careerists began to eagerly stand on the stage one by one, especially after the fall of Luoyang and Chang'an. Maybe some people would be sad and deplored, but more people seemed to It is with three points of joy, three points of excitement, three points of smugness and one point of elation.

"Is that why you came to choose Cao Mengde?" Xi Zhicai suddenly raised his eyebrows, rolled his eyes several times, suddenly thought of something, and said to Xun Yu, "...Actually, you came to choose Cao Mengde, not Because I think Cao Mengde is virtuous and good, or something else, but...hehehe..."

Xi Zhicai rolled his eyes and glanced at Xun Yu a few times, "...right? I guessed it right? In fact, according to the standards of the Xun family, although Cao Mengde is not bad, he is still a little behind after all. How about this?"

"...Yes." Xun Yu looked at Xi Zhi for a while before he said. This Xi Zhicai, no, Guo Jia, is really too smart, and sometimes it makes Xun Yu feel a little uncomfortable. With this little bit of information, he can piece together a generally complete pattern.

Xun Yu looked at Xi Zhicai and said, "Okay, we're tied. What do you think, are you willing to help me?"

"Hahaha, of course! Such a fun thing, of course, I am indispensable..." Xi Zhicai laughed, and then shook his head, "Oh... What a pity. Wouldn't it be nice if there was wine at this time?"

Xun Yu glanced at Xi Zhicai, then silently reached into his arms and took out a small wine gourd the size of a palm...

Xi Zhicai's eyes lit up a little, and he quickly took it, opened it, took a sip, and let out a pleasant sound.

Xun Yu turned his gaze to the west, seeming to be looking at something...

*********************

There are eight dragons in the Xun family: Xun Jian, Xun Cui, Xun Jing, Xun Tao, Xun Wang, Xun Shuang, Xun Su, and Xun Min, but only two of them are serving as officials, one is Xun Cui and the other is Xun Shuang.

Xun Shuang won’t mention it, everyone knows it. Xun Nu once served as the prime minister of Jinan and was also a local official worth two thousand stones.

Xun Kui had five sons, two of whom died in infancy. If the remaining three sons were arranged according to seniority, they were Xun Yan, Xun Chen and Xun Yu, with Xun Yu being the youngest.

Among Xun Yu's generation, in addition to Xun Yan and Xun Chen, there are also Xun Yue, the son of Xun Jian, and Xun Pei, the son of Xun Shuang. They can be said to be agile and talented, but compared to the three Xun Yu brothers That said, it's still a little short of the mark.

When Fei Qian first came to the Three Kingdoms, he had many sweet dreams, such as having famous officials beheaded and worshiping them. But later he realized that everyone has their own goals in doing things, and it is not purposeless or absurdly random. choose.

It's like Yang Biao could leave Yang Zan's death behind and come to Diaoyin with Huangfu Song. Is it because he felt Fei Qian's righteousness to regain Yin Mountain?

So, what is the purpose of this Xun Chen in front of me?

Or to put it another way, what does Xun Chen want to trade with me?

However, Fei Qian's doubts aside, Xun Chen is currently quite satisfied with Fei Qian.

One naturally has a more humble attitude, and does not show love, fun, or love just because he has achieved the merits of Yinshan. The other maintains a cautious attitude despite constant pressure from him. words and deeds.

Fei Qian first said that he did not insist on fame and so on, pretending to be an expert who was not keen on fame. Naturally, no one would believe this. Anyone who believed it would be a fool... and then he ran on him. Next, he expresses his desire to mention Wu Gou to find a marquis...to be a marquis and to be a prime minister. This is basically the wish of every person who has achieved academic success and wants to gain fame. If this is an ambition with evil intentions, then I am afraid that among the big men at the moment, They are all rebellious...

What's more, the word "Feng Hou" is really remarkable. It not only expresses personal ambition but also clings to the great cause. If Fei Qian can maintain such a posture, Xun Chen thinks that maybe it can be done. Let’s try to find someone who can help me...

Therefore, facing Fei Qian's probing eyes, Xun Chen acted very magnanimously and said calmly: "Has Zhonglang ever heard of...the term family hermit?"

"Family hermit?" Fei Qian was a little puzzled, but recalling what Xun Chen said before, he seemed to understand something, "Is this... related to the reputation you just retired from, um, Youruo said?"

Xun Chen nodded and said: "There are more than a hundred people in the Xun family's direct lineage, and if you count the collateral lines, there are nearly a thousand people... Although the books passed down in the family are the same, what they learned and understood are not the same, so there are many disputes. The winner will naturally be distinguished and gain both fame and fortune, while the loser...mostly hides in the mountains and forests, so he is called a family hermit."

Before Fei Qian could respond, Xun Chen continued: "A certain uncle, Mr. Xuan Xing, is also a hermit in the family... In the past, I once asked General Xu, who is the virtuous one, Jing or Shuang? The general once said, both of them are jade. Also, kindness is bright on the outside, and kindness on the inside is moist... At this moment, who knows the jade color of Xuan Xing?"

"Someone...should also be a hermit. Although there is nothing wrong with it, it is not what I want. Along the way, I have asked myself, but I can't let go of the word "wang", so I see Zhonglang with a shy face... I hope Zhonglang will forgive me for any offense. "After Xun Chen finished speaking, he left the table and bowed.

Fei Qian hurriedly helped Xun Chen up and asked him to sit down again. After that, Fang asked, "So, could it be that You Ruo... lost the fight?"

"No..." Xun Chen knew what Fei Qian wanted to ask, so he replied, "It's not about fighting, it's about abandoning... In the past, when Yuan Chaoqi ran away to the North Sea, someone in the family ordered someone to assist him. Now, now Members of the family wanted to choose another Ming Dynasty leader, so they ordered someone to betray him... and then he had no face to stay in Jizhou anymore..."

Fei Qian nodded, suddenly looked at Xun Chen awkwardly and said, "So..."

"...Exactly." Xun Chen nodded and said, "Although Zhonglang has returned to Yinshan, his background is weak and he is a side branch, so he is not the best choice."

"..." What he said made sense, and Fei Qian was speechless.

"I am not the best choice among the Xun family..." Xun Chen cupped his hands towards Fei Qian and smiled slightly, but there was a little sparkle in his eyes, "But what can I do?! The world is so big, How can all living beings be determined in one word? If it is as Zhonglang said, he can lift a three-foot Wu hook and sweep away all injustices. If so, even though he is not talented, he is still willing to follow Zhonglang and work hard to help. Zhong Lang lends a helping hand!”

"Good! Come here, get the wine!" Fei Qian asked someone to get the wine, then handed it to Xun Chen himself, raised the wine bowl and said, "This is what a man should do! There are many injustices in the world, but there is always generosity. Those who draw swords! Mr. Xun, let’s encourage each other!”

Xun Chen responded enthusiastically, and then he and Fei Qian drank it all in one gulp, then looked at each other and laughed...
