In their anger, Liu Xiu arrived belatedly. Among the people who came to pay their respects, Liu Xiu saw a figure he had not seen for a long time: Kong Rong. "Kong Wenju, why are you here on the battlefield?" Liu Xiu ignored Cao Cao and the generals who had been waiting for a long time, called Kong Rong out first, and asked with a smile: "Why, you also want to join the army and get fame immediately?" Kong Rong smiled and shook his head: "I am here for both official and private matters. For official matters, I am here to deliver the edict upon His Majesty's order for the affairs of the eldest son of the emperor. For private matters, Rong has something to ask of His Highness." "Oh. ?" Liu Xiu laughed in surprise: "Kong Wenju has something to ask of me? It's really an honor for me. Well, tell me, if I can do it, I will definitely agree to it." But he waved his hand: "Your Highness, private matters should be discussed privately. Let's talk about business matters first." Liu Xiu was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly and patted Kong Rong on the shoulder: "Kong Wenju, you really haven't changed your true colors. Okay, let's talk first. We will discuss private matters after these people have gone out. What does your majesty say about the emperor's eldest son?" Kong Rong put away his smile, turned around, faced everyone, and shouted seriously: "Your majesty issued an imperial edict." Become serious and listen to the instructions. "General Cao Cao reported that the traitor Yuan Tan claimed that the emperor's eldest son was in Yecheng. He was shocked. The emperor's eldest son is of the blood of the late emperor and a noble member of the royal family, so there is no room for error. The general is careful to handle it. If it is true, it must be done properly. Rescue him and send him to Luoyang, with all my wishes." "Wei!" Liu Xiu responded loudly. The little emperor's reaction was as expected, and there was no surprise. It doesn't matter if he means it. No matter what he meant, he couldn't be indifferent to the life and death of the emperor's eldest son. Of course, I don't care to what extent it is issued in the form of a verbal edict instead of a written edict. It's a very obvious statement. After Kong Rong finished delivering the emperor's oral edict, he coughed and turned around. Looking at Cao Cao: "General Wei, after hearing about the city for a few days, can we find out whether the emperor's eldest son is really in Ye City?" Cao Cao cupped his hands and said: "Reporting to your highness, I haven't seen the emperor's eldest son yet, so I don't know whether it is true or not." Liu Xiu frowned. : "You haven't figured it out yet?" Cao Cao nodded in embarrassment. Liu Xiu snorted lightly, with some displeasure in his tone: "Send someone to inform Yuan Tan that I am coming. Give him three days. After three days, I will start to attack the city." "Here." Cao Cao nodded quickly. Liu Xiu waved his hand, stretched out his hand to hold Kong Rong's arm and said with a smile: "Okay, the business is over, let's talk about private matters." Kong Rong looked at Cao Cao who was reluctantly exiting, smiled proudly, and sat down calmly. Come down. Liu Xiu ordered people to serve tea, but the tea was not ready yet. Kong Rong smiled and said: "Your Highness, I want to make a deal with you." Liu Xiu asked with interest: "Oh, okay, tell me what kind of deal it is." "I recommend a talent to you. Your Highness. Your Highness promised me a position." Kong Rong said slowly while holding the tea cup. Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows, half smiling. "With your knowledge and reputation as Kong Wenju, you actually want to do business with me despite your position?" Kong Rong shook his head: "What your Highness said is true. With my humble name, Kong Rong, no matter if I am a prefect, It's not difficult to be a foreign official or a court official of any kind. If it is such a position, I really don't need to ask for help from His Highness." Liu Xiu rolled his eyes and realized something. "So, this position is not an official, but something else?" "Exactly." Kong Rong nodded: "I heard that His Highness intends to set up a school in Shanggu. He is not talented and wants to recommend himself to the school to be a priest." He paused and then added: "Just like Cai Bojie from Chengdu School." Liu Xiu glanced at him in surprise, thinking that Kong Rong was indeed extremely arrogant, and he would keep pace with Cai Yong as soon as he opened his mouth. . But then again, the only person in the world who has the courage and confidence to say such things is probably Kong Rong. "It can be lonely to make sacrificial wine." Liu Xiu reminded: "Although people who are scholars are famous, their various benefits cannot be compared with those of officials." "Rong naturally understands the pros and cons here." Kong Rong He waved his hands calmly and said, "Being an official is just for temporary fame and fortune, but being a scholar is for eternal fame. We, the Kong family of Lu, are descended from the Master, and the poems and books are passed down from family to family. Learning is the way to establish oneself. Besides, my seven brothers, There are quite a few people who are officials, but none of them are unique in their knowledge. My father and brother think that I have little talent but a bit of a arrogant personality, so I am not suitable for being an official. Maybe I can be successful in learning, so" Kong Rong shrugged: "I have the audacity to make a deal with His Highness." Liu Xiu laughed. Kong Rong spoke modestly, but his confidence and even a bit of arrogance were clearly revealed. Is he"It's just a matter of learning, and the target he is aiming at is Cai Yong." Cai Yong was originally a scholar. Since he went to Chengdu to study the tomb, his attainments in ancient culture have become unparalleled. Kong Rong was extremely proud to target him. "However, if the school he is about to establish in Shanggu has Kong Rong as its head, it will indeed have a chance to be on par with Chengdu School in terms of academic level. Liu Xiu was interested in his ambition, but he didn't show it on his face: "I wonder what kind of talent you have to make me agree to your high request?" "It's nothing, just a martial artist." Kong Rong said disapprovingly: " For others, it may not be interesting, but I heard that your highness is determined to conquer the world, and the more brave men the better." "Really?" Liu Xiu laughed, somewhat uninterested. When it comes to brave men, his men are the most lacking. Kong Rong saw it and smiled slightly: "Your Highness, don't underestimate this person. Although he is not well-known, he is no worse than those under your Highness's account. The best thing is that he is still young. If he can get your Highness's guidance, he will be able to become famous in the world in the future." He stood up, went to the tent door and called out: "Ziyi, why don't you come in to see His Highness?" "Here." A voice sounded outside the tent, and then, an eight-foot-tall, dignified-looking young warrior walked in. He crossed his hands and saluted Liu Xiu: "Tai Shi Ci of Donglai, please pay homage to His Highness." Liu Xiu thumped: "Tai Shi Ci?" Tai Shi Ci was a little surprised, raised his head and looked at Liu Xiu, and said in confusion: "Your Highness, do you know me?" Liu Xiu I smiled and thought to myself, of course I know you, but this is my first time meeting you in person. He laughed and said to Kong Rong: "Okay, deal!" Kong Rong was a little stunned: "Your Highness, don't you want to test him?" Liu Xiu waved his hand generously and said seriously: "You Can I still trust the people recommended by Kong Wenju? It¡¯s a deal. If you are interested, you can start immediately and supervise the project as Jijiu. "How about you take over as the director of Shanggu School? In the wine position, Kong Rong was no longer in the mood to care about Tai Shi Ci. He nodded repeatedly and left happily. Liu Xiu invited Tai Shici, who was somewhat at a loss, to take a seat and asked about his current situation. Since Taishi Ci is from Donglai, it is a bit strange why he did not join Cao Cao's account. The Donglai area has been under Cao Cao these years. Liu Xiu asked and found out that Taishi Ci was not in his hometown during this time and had gone to Liaodong to avoid trouble. About ten years ago, when he was just fourteen years old, he was working as a minor official in the county. There was a conflict between the county governor and the state governor. The governor collected evidence against the governor and wrote a letter to the court to impeach the governor. Taishi Ci rushed to Luoyang and handed over the governor's memorial. All the evidence and evidence were destroyed, and the governor was saved, but the governor was offended. So he crossed the sea to Liaodong to avoid disaster, and traveled around the world, and his footprints once penetrated into the snowfields. He recently heard that Qingzhou was pacified and the original governor had long since disappeared, so he rushed back to Qingzhou. During his absence, Beihai Prime Minister Kong Rong heard about his name for a long time and often sent people to greet his family and send some things to support his old mother. So as soon as he returned home, he rushed to Beihai on his mother's orders to express his gratitude to Kong Rong. melt. It happened that Kong Rong resigned from his post and returned to Luoyang, so he took him to Luoyang together, and then came to Liu Xiu together. "You have been in Liaodong?" Liu Xiu was even more surprised. Liu Bei has been in Liaodong these years. How could such a famous general be left alone? "Have you ever thought about joining the Marquis of Xiangping, Liu Bei, and Lord Liu Fu?" "Not really." Taishi Ci shook his head: "Although Ci has been in Liaodong these years, he has spent most of his time traveling in the snowy fields, and his time in Liaodong has not been long. The farthest point was as far north as Yilou. A few years ago, he heard that the Han army had defeated the Xianbei people in northern Xinjiang. Ci once went up the river and prepared to surrender. However, when he arrived, the battle had already been settled. After hearing Mr. Kong's mention, I realized that it was His Highness's army back then, so I asked Mr. Kong for his recommendation, willing to be His Highness's pawn. "Liu Xiu smiled and shook his head: "I didn't expect that even though we met for the first time, we would be so different. We have been friends for a long time. You heard my name in Northern Xinjiang a few years ago, but I have also heard of your name for a long time. However, I have not met you now. " Tai Shici quickly paid his respects. He only thought that Liu Xiu's words were polite. He didn't know that Liu Xiu really knew his name a long time ago, but that was a thousand years later. Liu Xiu immediately called Zhang Liao and asked him to lead Tai Shi Ci to try his hand. As soon as the two competed, they immediately became good friends. Taishi Ci was proficient in bow and horse, and had superb martial arts. He fought Zhang Liao for dozens of rounds, and even Lu Bu praised him. The news soon spread throughout the military camp, and everyone knew that Liu Xiu had another brave young warrior beside him. After hearing this, Cao Cao was just a little surprised. Liu Bei heard that Tai Shici had stayed in Liaodong for nearly ten years, but he couldn't help but Sad. "Xianhe, do you think this is fate?" Liu Bei held his chin in one hand and subconsciously stroked his eyebrows with his fingers.??, rubbing the scar slowly: "This Taishi Ci has been in Liaodong for several years. He would rather be a pawn in my eldest brother's tent now than come to join me. With his ability, at least by his side He is a capable general." Jian Yong did not say anything, feeling a little regretful. However, in his opinion, Liu Xiu and Liu Bei were not at the same level at all. It was better for Taishi Ci to be a pawn beside the general than to be a general in charge of Liu Bei's command. Please search for Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
