Chapter 128 Why don’t you call me a prostitute?
Guo Jia's meaning is very clear. He came here not to get an official job.
Xi Zhicai and Xi Yu could naturally hear this.
They were also aware of Guo Jia's temperament. Since the other party had already said so, the two brothers didn't say much to persuade him.
However, although Guo Jia did not want to serve in Cao Ying.
But now that this guy has come to Xuchang, it's not that simple to leave again.
What's more, the other party is also extremely talented in terms of talent, and Xi Yu naturally doesn't want to waste such a talent.
The school is currently under construction.
Xiyu doesn't want to let go of this guy Guo Jia.
"Fengxiao, I intend to build a school!"
This made Cao Cao feel a little proud.
"Second brother, there seem to be a lot of scholars in Xuchang!"
The two just looked at each other. After all, they were separated by a street and they were not familiar with each other, so naturally there was no communication.
Suddenly there was a burst of noise in the restaurant.
The sounds in the carriage were a little immature, followed by a slightly calmer voice from the side, but the voice still sounded a bit crisp.
Is this the important thing for Guo Jia?
No wonder he hasn't seen Xi Zhicai in these two days!
Zhuge Liang, who has just turned sixteen, muttered this sentence, his eyes seeming to sparkle.
Liu Bei is not in a hurry.
Fortunately, the journey was extremely smooth. When the Zhuge brothers arrived in Xuchang, it happened to be that Cao Cao had issued the order to recruit talents.
Just at this glance, both of them frowned obviously.
Regardless of whether the opponent has any abilities, Liu Bei's current situation does not allow him to show any abilities.
The effect of the recruitment order was obvious in several places. Scholars from Hedong, Hanoi, Yingchuan and other places came and went in Xuchang.
Feelings, you drop what you are doing and go eat, drink and have fun with Guo Jia.
Cao Cao was stunned when he received the response.
Sima Fu, who was on the second floor, was also a little moved: "Second brother, it seems that the emperor's uncle is at the restaurant opposite. Would you like us to go over and have a look?"
The two brothers were minding their own business and ignored Liu Bei.
So what if you make friends with these nobles? In Xuchang today, the person who can really call the shots is not the emperor.
After all, Liu Bei, the emperor's uncle, now also depends on how Cao Cao treats him!
Even the emperor was under the control of Sikong Cao Cao.
Since the Zhuge family had not moved, Sun Ce's location in Jiangdong had not attracted Zhuge Jin's attention.
During this period, Liu Bei often took Mi Zhu to eat in various restaurants in Xuchang.
However, the second brother didn’t know why, so he insisted on bringing himself along.
In comparison, he was more mature than Guo Jia. Later, Guo Jia also met Xi Zhi before he met Xi Yu.
To be honest, he and Guo Jia are similar in age, but Xi Zhicai is a few years older than them both.
"I heard that Mr. Xi Fengyi is a good calligrapher. He created the waterwheel, the curved shaft plow and other things."
Xiyu thought for a while and then spoke directly.
"The rumored Mr. Fengyi Opera is in Xuchang. Now he plans to build a school in Xuchang!"
But in fact, in his opinion, the other party is like a caged bird after all.
Some people naturally want to shine in front of each other.
"Second brother, where are we going now?"
After the recruitment order was issued, during the first month of the first month in Xuchang, there were significantly more scholars traveling from various places.
"Brother Dan, my purpose is not to come here to serve as an official, so there is no need to be like the people around me!"
Cao Cao couldn't help but hammer the case in front of him.
As for the two of them who were drunk and dreaming all day long, Xi Yu had no time to talk to them now.
Sima Yi was a little confused. That glance just now made his heart palpitate for some reason.
Cao Cao met Guo Jia when he was in Yanzhou.
Fortunately, the elder brother was reasonable and agreed.
The palpitations I had just now were a bit strange.
When Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, he did not massacre the city. Naturally, the Zhuge family who originally lived in Langya, Xuzhou did not flee with them.
At the same time, in the restaurant opposite.
All those scholars wanted to get in front of Liu Bei. After all, this was the emperor's uncle recognized by the Emperor of Han Dynasty.
"What are you talking about, that Guo Fengxiao takes Zhongshu Ling to go out and drink with prostitutes every day?"
After all, when he invited Guo Jia to join Cao Ying, he openly refused, but now he still came.
Zhuge Dan was a little helpless. His second brother's temperament was like this. He was so stable that he didn't look like a sixteen-year-old boy.
The two brothers immediately started wandering around the streets of Xuchang.
"Second brother, Xuchang is much more prosperous than Langya now!"
After just one glance, Zhuge Liang looked away.
And outside the window, on the other side of the street, there is also a restaurant.
Zhuge Liang was not in a hurry to taste it. After hearing Zhuge Dan's words, he smiled.
There are some differences from the original process.
There are many people like Zhuge Liang who dress up in Confucian shirts.
It's just that the two brothers didn't look at Liu Bei at this time, and continued to eat the food in front of them.
Sima Yi stared at Zhuge Liang, as if his familiar appearance was imprinted in his mind.
"Gong Cao issued an order to recruit talented people. He is looking for talented people. I realize that I know very little about them. I still need to practice and practice!"
The scholars all around were toasting Liu Bei from afar.
However, it was different from what Cao Cao imagined.
At this moment, Guo Jia had no intention of meeting him at all, and the subordinates he sent over received a response saying that it was inconvenient to meet him.
After the meal was served, the two Zhuge brothers didn't say anything more.
After replying to his younger brother, Zhuge Liang was not in a hurry to directly inquire about the school founded by Xi Yu.
At this time, Liu Bei, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and Mi Zhu slowly followed him to the restaurant.
As soon as I raised my eyes, I saw two brothers sitting in front of the window of the restaurant opposite.
Outside the city, there were many carriages passing by.
At the same time, in the restaurant on the opposite side, hearing that Liu Bei was opposite, most of the scholars began to cross the street towards the restaurant on the other side.
Why not... about prostitution?
That's right, when Xi Yu was young, he first realized that he was in the era of the Three Kingdoms.
If it weren't for his father's urging, he wouldn't have wanted to serve as an official. Now all the scholars in Xuchang are just like the ministers who have crossed the river.
The construction of schools is not slow.
The north wind at the end of winter made people's cheeks hurt. Business travelers traveling to and from Xuchang all covered their cheeks with their hands.
"Um!"
Xi Yu didn't say much about this.
He is not so stingy as to envy someone who is more handsome than him.
Not long after, the two entered the restaurant.
Xi Zhicai chuckled.
Sure enough, this person is no ordinary person!
"Liang, I really want to practice with Mr. Xi during this trip!"
Of course, Sima Yi had also heard of Liu Bei, but it was just that Liu Bei was now enjoying some fame with the title of imperial uncle.
"Third brother, you are right, there are too many scholars in Xuchang!"
While the two people in the carriage were talking, the carriage had already passed through the city gate guards and entered Xuchang City.
Sima Fu laughed and joked.
Zhuge Dan, who was carrying a basket of letters, looked like a book boy standing next to Zhuge Liang.
"That man named Guo Jia came to Xuchang?"
Now that he heard that the other party was going to build a school, Zhuge Liang immediately arrived in Xuchang with his younger brother Zhuge Dan after getting the consent of Zhuge Jin and his uncle.
The two of them were eating.
Naturally, Cao Cao also had a bit of a temper.
Speaking of this, Guo Jia's face turned a little dark.
Cao Cao's invitations to Guo Jia were rejected one after another, and Cao Cao's patience became less and less.
"Is there any news about that guy Xu Shu?"
"That guy started clamoring to be a ranger, but now he's turned to studying literature, which is a good thing!"
At this time, Zhuge Liang was wearing a white Confucian shirt, and his ungrown body was already seven feet tall. With his handsome appearance, he frequently attracted attention on the road.
What concerned Cao Cao the most was Guo Jia who came from Yingchuan.
Just after Sima Yi and his younger brother sat down, they inadvertently glanced at the street through the window.
The two of them did not attract too much attention. After following the waiter in the restaurant to the second floor, the two brothers sat down by the window.
He wasn't in a hurry either.
"Second brother, that is the great uncle of the Han Dynasty. Why don't you pay any attention to it?"
But Zhuge Liang doesn’t need it!
Hearing what his second brother said, Zhuge Dan didn't say much.
Looking at Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai suddenly asked.
“What a Xuchang!”
The Zhuge brothers also saw Liu Bei going to the restaurant.
Sima Fu came back to his senses and saw his second brother looking out the window in a daze, so he couldn't help but ask.
Zhuge Dan looked at the crowded Xuchang Street and couldn't help but ask his second brother beside him.
Although the Han Dynasty today is no longer the Han Dynasty it was in the past, the influence of the imperial court is still very obvious in the eyes of scholars.
Just a person who is limited by himself!
As for those scholars who wanted to use Liu Bei to serve as officials, it was not a wise choice after all.
After hearing this, Guo Jia seemed to have known it for a long time, and the expression on his face did not change at all.
As Sima Yi nodded and looked away, Zhuge Liang also nodded politely in response.
"Second brother, what are you looking at?"
There are so many good-looking people in the world, and Sima Yi is actually not bad either.
Although the two people in sight looked extremely young.
After all, Zhuge Dan was not as calm as Zhuge Liang. After a while, he looked at Liu Bei.
Inside Sikong Mansion.
Sima Yi couldn't help but look towards the restaurant opposite. When he raised his eyes, he saw the taller and more handsome scholar at the opposite window, lowering his head and slowly tasting the food on the table.
Now Guo Jia is here.
…
I had too many ideas when I was young.
On one of the carriages, a curtain opened, and a pair of bright eyes flashed out.
"Second brother, I heard that Cao Sikong issued a recruitment order. With my second brother's talent, I think it will be no problem. Why don't you give it a try!"
What's more, he is now a dignified Sikong!
Not long after, two figures, one large and one small, followed from the carriage.
Someone shouted in the restaurant, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but look towards the stairs.
Um?
Seeing that Guo Jia didn't mean to say anything, Xi Yu naturally understood that this guy didn't refuse or accept.
Xi Zhicai had no opinion on this.
The former is seven feet tall and has a handsome appearance, while the latter is a bit shorter but also looks extremely upright.
My second brother is very talented. Ever since he heard that Xi Yu was setting up a school in Xuchang City, he has been thinking about coming there.
Nor is he Liu Bei.
It must be considered in your mind.
At this moment, Liu Bei and Mi Zhu were sitting in the center of the second floor.
There is a very obvious gap between the order for recruiting talents endorsed by the emperor and the order for recruiting talents that Cao Cao issued in Yanzhou.
Moreover, in the name of the imperial uncle, Liu Bei walked to the restaurant, and there was a lot of excitement in the restaurant.
Sima Yi sighed.
I thought Guo Jia had something important to do, but the news he received next made him feel a little angry.
After the three of them finished talking, they turned around and went to visit Xu Shu's mother together.
He originally liked Guo Jia, but the other party ignored him.
Zhuge Dan said something to his second brother.
Sima Yi shook his head. To be honest, he didn't really care about appearance.
After Guo Jia arrived, Cao Cao thought for a while, and after two or three days, he sent someone to invite Guo Jia.
"Second brother, is this Xuchang?"
Immediately afterwards, Guo Jia took the initiative to stay in the theater house, and even moved directly into Xi Zhicai's house nearby.
And because of Xuchang's recruitment order, the most frequent people in the major restaurants in Xuchang are scholars from all over the country.
After hearing his brother's suggestion, Zhuge Liang shook his head without hesitation.
It was obvious that he had clearly seen Cao Ying's current status.
Liu Bei was in the restaurant opposite. He was still able to calm down and eat, which showed that he was not an ordinary person.
Is it because of that face?
"Second brother, I saw that the person opposite is much prettier than you!"
At this time, Sima Yi nodded towards the opposite side and turned his head back randomly.
"Second brother, this pork belly is really delicious. I heard that it was popularized by Mr. Xi, whom you admire!"
"Uncle Huang is here!"
The young Sima Fu was still a little impetuous.
"I wrote in a while ago that that guy seems to be wandering around in Jingzhou. I heard that he studied with Mr. Shui Jing for a while some time ago!"
At this moment, Liu Bei had already inadvertently noticed the two Zhuge brothers beside the window.
However, this calmness alone made Liu Bei a little concerned. However, there were too many scholars surrounding him at the moment, so Liu Bei was not in a hurry to go and make friends with the two people next to the window.
Seeing that there was a restaurant not far away, Zhuge Liang led Zhuge Dan forward.
Sima Yi led Sima Fu up to the second floor. The latter took a look inside the restaurant and couldn't help but sigh.
This is a rare opportunity. With so many scholars, there are always some with outstanding abilities.
If the second brother could get a job in Cao Yingli, his life should be easier!
Cao Cao was a little angry, but now that he was Sikong, there were no longer a few scholars who defected to Xuchang.
By the middle of the first month, the general outline of the entire school had already taken shape.
As the number of people traveling to and from Xuchang began to increase, the entire economy of Xuchang was boosted.
"I just saw a person who looked younger than me. I have never seen him before, but when I saw that face, my heart skipped a beat!"
At this time, Zhuge Dan could not help but eat the food in the restaurant.
At this time, the eighteen-year-old Sima Yi also led his younger brother to the restaurant.
Now Zhuge Jin has become the one who stays in the Zhuge family to serve the family elders.
Zhuge Liang successfully grew up in Xuzhou until he was sixteen years old. He loved learning since he was a child, and he had already heard of Fengyi's famous name.
With Mi Zhu next to him, Liu Bei's spending in major restaurants was not wasted at all.
Zhuge Dan looked at the buildings on both sides and the business travelers coming and going, and he was already a little dazzled.
His purpose was very simple, which was to make friends with these scholars who appeared in Xuchang.
And at this moment.
Xun Yu and others highly praised the other party's talent. Even Xi Yu praised him, so Cao Cao naturally took it to heart.
Sima Yi was speechless after hearing this.
"I don't know what the school looks like."
Although most scholars have some ability, their abilities are ultimately limited.
Cao Cao was naturally overjoyed and felt proud.
After retracting his gaze, Zhuge Liang's expression did not change much.
As more and more scholars came and went from Xuchang, Liu Bei, who was living in Xuchang, also started to move around.
And have he, the lord, been treated harshly?
The effect of the court's recruitment order was extremely obvious. Many things Xi Yu had heard of and things he had never heard of appeared in Xuchang in an instant.
Zhuge Liang shook his head, and at this moment he also glanced at Liu Bei who was not far away.
"Brother Fu, my brother and your names have already been recorded in the recruitment order, so there is no need to make friends with another imperial uncle!"
Guo Jia didn't care, and Xi Zhicai had nothing to do.
Although he didn't know much about the situation in Xuchang, the situation of the emperor's uncle in front of him could not be said to be very good.
After all, the allure of an imperial uncle is extremely obvious.
He just looked at Xi Yu and nodded randomly.
But it was Sikong Cao Cao who lived in Sikong Mansion.
However, there are only a few capable people in this world.
There were some things that Sima Yi did not say directly.
"I plan to go to the school run by Mr. Xi to have a look!"
Since the imperial court issued the recruitment order.
"It's exactly noon, Brother Dan, I'll take you to eat first!"
Outside Xuchang City.
As if in the dark, when Sima Yi looked over, the sixteen-year-old Zhuge Liang also turned his eyes.
An imperial uncle is just within Cao Cao's thoughts.
Then he waved his hand towards his third brother.
Logically speaking, his relationship with Guo Jia should be closer, but it turns out that Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai are closer.
The person he wanted to serve was the Sikong Mansion, so he naturally had to establish a clear relationship with the members of the royal family.
These incomprehensible scholars made friends with Liu Bei, but their talents could not be displayed in the recruitment order.
People who are truly talented and capable are naturally extremely confident in themselves.
Just like the guy sitting at the window opposite.
Sima Yi felt that probably, the other party's thoughts were not much different from his own!
