Chapter 109: Visiting Xunfu (2)

The Xun family, from Xun Qi and below, all eyes were on Lu Yao.

Xun Yu glanced at Lu Yao, retracted his gaze, and closed his eyes slightly, as if he was a fugue foreign object. Xun You, who was at the bottom of the line, noticed something strange, glanced at this uncle who was a few years younger than himself, and then turned his gaze back to Lu Yao.

"What does the captain think, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Xun Qi smiled and gestured.

"Mr. Gongda's statement that the Ten Constant Servants will eventually not be able to close the Holy Hearing, this is a big fallacy." Lu Yao took his hand and said proudly: "Today, Zizun often serves Zhang Rang as his father, and he has always obeyed his words. Freezing three feet is not a day's cold. Don't you hear about the scourge of the party? ”

Xun Qi and the others couldn't help but change color when they heard this, and they were all silent.

The disaster of the party was the most tragic rebellion against the eunuchs by the scholar class during the period of Emperor Huan Ling. In the end, many scholars were imprisoned by the eunuchs on the charge of being party members. Especially eight years ago, Yongchang Taishou Cao Luan wrote a letter to avenge the grievances of the party. Zhang Rang instigated Emperor Ling to arrest and execute Cao Luan on the grounds that the party was powerful and feared that it would endanger the imperial throne.

Zhang Rang's treacherous plan succeeded, and he became even more unscrupulous, and then instigated Emperor Ling to expand the scourge of the party and eradicate the thorn in his eye. So Emperor Ling decreed that all party protΓ©gΓ©s, fathers, sons, and brothers who were appointed officials would be dismissed and imprisoned for life, and none of the five clans would be spared.

Lu Yao took in the expressions of everyone in the Xun family, and smiled in his heart. After the Yellow Turban Rebellion began, Emperor Ling was worried that the party members would be forced to rebel with the Yellow Turban Army, and accepted a letter from the ministers of the DPRK and China, issuing an edict to amnesty the world, exempting other innocent people from the crimes except those who were identified as party members. As a player, he naturally knows the urine nature of the Spirit Emperor better than the Xun family.

After a slight pause, letting the Xun family digest this cruel reality, Lu Yao turned to Xun You and said, "Mr. Gongda said that General He was born as a butcher in the market, and he has neither prestige nor talent, and it is difficult to convince the public?" ”

Xun You was stunned, and nodded subconsciously, feeling that there was nothing to recognize. As an official in the court, the first priority is prestige and ability. People without talent and virtue cannot gain a foothold in the DPRK.

"Big mistake." Lu Yao sneered and made a sonorous evaluation.

Xun You's face suddenly swollen red, and he got up and said unceremoniously: "I am only shallow in my studies, and I ask the school captain to correct me." ”

Lu Yao smiled, looked at Xun You and gently spit out three words: "Queen He." ”

Xun You's face changed, he wanted to speak and stopped, and finally shook his head and sighed, and sat down with a gloomy expression. It's not that he doesn't know that Empress He is receiving the favor of the Son of Heaven. Although his brother He Jin was born as a butcher in the market, he also overwhelmed hundreds of officials and worshiped the general. This alone proves that the He siblings already have the foundation to take power.

Without him, the Son of Heaven is only willing to trust both his relatives and eunuchs.

He looked up at Lu Yao opposite, convinced. This alien lieutenant pointed out the critical joint of He Jin's addition to the official and the knight, and he was ashamed of himself. At this time, there was a reassuring voice from the side.

"Gongda doesn't need to mind. This alien is very human too. ”

Xun You turned his head to look at the uncle who was younger than himself, smiled reluctantly, and signaled that he understood. Xun Yu smiled knowingly, got up and retorted: "The captain is righteous, Wen Ruo admires it." But if you dare to do it, if the world is in chaos, where can you settle down? ”

Lu Yao smiled for a long time, stared at Xun Yu seriously, and said word by word: "Zhu Yazhou." ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then laughed dumbly. Xun Qi motioned to the clansmen to save some face for Lu Yao with his eyes, and then said with a smile: "The captain is ridiculous. Zhuya Prefecture is a desolate land, it is impossible to go to the desolate land to be a savage in order to live in peace, right? ”

The Xun family couldn't hold back their laughter, and peeked at Lu Yao opposite from time to time. Including Xun Yu, everyone thought it was ridiculous. The Xun family is the descendant of Xunzi, even if the world is in turmoil, it is nothing more than the loss of something outside the body.

"The old gentleman is not right." Lu Yao's face did not change, as if he didn't see the Xun family holding back a smile, and said eloquently: "I am shallow in my learning, and I can't get into the eyes of all the gentlemen here, but I remember that the princes of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty are chasing the Central Plains." ”

After only saying a word, the Xun family fell silent again.

As a descendant of Xunzi, he is no stranger to the history of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. At that time, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was in decline, and the princes in various places launched wars to annex the surrounding small countries, which eventually led to the demise of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

"There are no more princes now." Xun Yu argued strongly, but his tone did not betray his heart.

"Dare to ask Mr. Wen Ruo if he knows how to deal with the Yellow Turban Rebellion today?" Lu Yao pressed step by step and behaved very strongly.

He knew that if he wanted to convince the Xun family, the only way to show enough strength was to show enough strength. At present, the game is in the middle of a plot campaign, the Eastern Han Dynasty has not really declined, and the thoughts of these scholars and doctors of the Xun family are still conservative. If Xun Yu is not impressed now, and the thoughts of the Three Kingdoms period are restored after the battle, it will be difficult to subdue Xun Yu again.

"The imperial court sent a three-way army to conquer ......," Xun Yu said with a pale face. After only saying one word, he shook his head helplessly and sighed, and simply kept silent.

"I'll speak for Mr. Wenruo." Lu Yao smiled confidently: "Except for General He, General Huangfu Zhonglang, and General Lu Zhonglang, the imperial court has no spare strength to send troops to recruit the Yellow Turban thieves from all over the country, so he ordered the county guards to recruit troops on their own. Nowadays, the county guards in various places have heavy troops, how is it different from the princes of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty? ”

Xun Yu shook his head helplessly.

was made by Cao Cao to be Wang Zuozhicai, he is not stupid. The county guards in various places have heavy troops, and the imperial court has no spare energy to take care of it, so it is understandable to breed ambition. Now that I think about it, how similar is the current imperial court to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

"There are many scribes in my Xun family, and I can also defect to others." Xun You was unwilling to be subdued by Lu Yao, and still retorted stubbornly.

"Mr. Gongda is good at arguing, and Guzhou admires it." Lu Yao smiled, arched his hand to Xun Yu on the other side, changed his words, and said sonorously: "Dare to ask Mr. Gongda, if you defect to a certain prince, and the other prince threatens your father's life, are you protecting your future?" Or is it a father? If you change your course and switch to others, and the princes threaten the lives of your relatives all the way in the future, what should you do? There are more than 100 members of the Xun family, can you disregard the lives of your relatives and just want to save your own family? ”

After a series of rhetorical questions, Xun You sat down dejectedly, his eyes were blank, and he had no idea of strong arguments.

At this time, Ding Yan saw that Lu Yao had already spoken to the Xun family speechlessly, and immediately got up and smiled: "Don't blame my family master for being mean. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, what the captain said, every word is unforgettable. If it weren't for the school captain's point, the Xun family would probably not understand until death. Xun Qi's face was gloomy, and he barely managed to squeeze out a smile.

"Old man, my father-in-law is majestic and strategic, and it is not a lie." Ding Yan said eloquently: "Before March, my father-in-law established Xanadu Village alone, just hoping to be able to have a Xanadu in troubled times, protect the people, and ensure peace. In just three months, Xanadu Village has a town-level scale. With a population of tens of thousands, more than one million grains and grass, and a new dock can be built to fish with sails, and a naval army can be built to protect a sea area. ”

Speaking of this, Ding Yan paused slightly, and waited for the Xun family to digest the information before continuing: "A month ago, Xanadu Village was coveted by thieves. In order to ensure the peace of the party, the lord of my family raised more than 1,000 troops, and fought for thousands of miles, and leveled more than 100 villages. Today, there are more than 2,000 elite soldiers in Xanadu Town. General Zilong was brave and invincible, and he beheaded the Yellow Turban Qu Shuai Bocai a few days ago. There is also the daughter of Cai Yong, a great Confucian in the world, who presides over the affairs of the territory. Zhu Yazhou lives far overseas, and only strangers covet it. In the eyes of my father-in-law, it is just a disease of ringworm and scabies, which can be eliminated with just one hand. ”

Lu Yao listened beside him, secretly surprised. He remembered that before he came to Luoyang, the troops in Xanadu Town were worth more than a thousand. I didn't think it would be long before the strength of the army had already doubled. If you count the allies such as Black Tiger Mountain, even if a small prince crosses the sea to fight, he may not be able to win.

The Xun family was frightened by Ding Yan's deliberate ignorance of many facts. In this way, the territory of this alien captain seems to be good. Over time, it may not be as good as the counties in the Central Plains.

The corners of Xun Qi's eyes twitched, and he raised the wine bottle with a dry smile and changed the topic: "Today is just to thank the captain for saving his life, and I won't talk about anything else." When the old man finds the rest of his relatives to discuss, can he reply to the school captain? ”

Lu Yao smiled and said nothing, picked up the wine bottle and touched Xun Qi with Xun Yao, then drank it all, got up and said goodbye: "Yingchuan is undecided, don't dare to drink more, come to calm Yingchuan, and then visit the old gentleman." ”
