Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms Chapter 64: A man born in troubled times, he should bring a three-footed sword to achieve unparalleled achievements
Chapter 64: A man born in troubled times, he should bring a three-footed sword to achieve unparalleled achievements
"Save the people from fire and water!" Zhao Yun's words deeply shocked Taishi Ci.
In fact, Taishi Ci was not an ordinary citizen.
From the fact that he was "less eager to learn, and served as an official in the county, we can infer history." This should be the kind of treatment only a wealthy family would receive.
However, judging from the situation of Taishi Ci and his mother, it is possible that he has a lower status in his family, or even just a peripheral person.
But it is precisely because he has suffered so much in the world that Taishi Ci has a better understanding of the hardships and hardships of ordinary people's lives, and it can even be said that he has a deep understanding of them.
After comparing Lu Yan's 'ideal' with his own, Taishi Ci could not help but smile bitterly and replied:
"I have always had a desire to make contributions. But now, compared with Grand Administrator Lu's ideals, I seem to be a little too small..."
Zhao Yun smiled and said nothing. He was attracted by Lu Yan's "grand ambition" and became his master.
At this moment, Taishi Ci was also shocked, which just showed that what he was pursuing was indeed extraordinary.
only,
If Taishi Ci knew that Lu Yan's true ideal was to "become an immortal by fishing" and that improving people's lives was just a convenient thing for him to achieve this goal, would he be so angry that he would pick up a brick and beat Lu Yan hard on the spot?
A meal?
...
Because there are too many people in Chenliu City now,
So Chenliucheng had a clear rule: Unless it was an emergency, no one was allowed to ride a horse after entering the city. Riders must dismount and lead the horse forward after entering the city to avoid disturbing or even injuring the crowd.
Zhao Yun and Tai Shici were chatting about life, ideals, achievements and other topics while leading their horses into Chenliucheng.
Compared with the tranquility and leisure outside the city,
The increasingly prosperous and endless flow of people in Chenliu City made Taishi Ci feel like he was in a peaceful and prosperous age.
"What a prosperous scene!" Taishi sighed, stroking his long beard with a loving hand.
Just as Taishi Ci was sighing with emotion, a local citizen who was passing by them heard his words and said proudly: "Sir, it seems that this is your first time coming to Chenliucheng!"
"Exactly." After Taishi Ci replied, he began to look at the other person.
Although the other party was dressed simply, he was full of energy and his face was rosy. It was obvious that he was well fed and clothed.
"Haha, those two brothers should have a good time in Chenliu County.
Especially in the south of the city, there is a newly opened brothel there, and the young lady inside is really very plump!"
After the man finished speaking, he walked away without waiting for Taishi Ci and Zhao Yun to reply.
The two of them were actually pimped out like this, and they looked at each other speechlessly and smiled bitterly.
Zhao Yun asked Taishi Ci: "Why, do you and I look like the kind of libertines who hang out in the land of fireworks?"
"You, I don't know. Anyway, I don't go to these places..." After Taishi Ci joked a bit, he thought to himself, "Actually, it's quite good to go see and broaden your horizons once in a while."
Lu Yan was extremely happy when he learned that Zhao Yun was back and had brought Tai Shi Ci with him.
Taishi Ci was one of the most important helpers during Sun Ce's rise. He laid a solid foundation for Sun's Jiangdong foundation and was known as the first general in Soochow.
Moreover, Taishi Ci was not only outstanding in martial arts, but also had an extraordinary reputation and prestige.
When Liu Yao was defeated, Taishi Ci was able to rely on his own influence to appease Liu Yao's old troops. It can be seen that at that time, he was no longer just a pure military general.
With such a brave and well-known celebrity coming, Lu Yan naturally cannot let people down.
Lu Yan brought Guo Jia and Man Chong to support him, and Lu Yan formally met with Tai Shi Ci in the living room of his house.
Lu Yan is still wearing a white scribe's gown (system reward). He is handsome, full of momentum, and has a natural and approachable temperament.
Guo Jia was wearing a blue gown often worn by literati, but his handsome face was abnormally pale.
Man Chong has sharp eyes and a serious smile. At first glance, he seems to be the kind of person who is rather stern and not easy to get close to.
When Lu Yan and the others walked into the living room, Taishi Ci had already roughly analyzed the characteristics of each of them.
"Your Excellency, Taishi Ci, I have met Governor Lu!" Taishi Ci bowed to Lu Yan and said.
Lu Yan came to Taishi Ci with a smile, stretched out his hands to help him up and said, "Ziyi, Ziyi, I've been looking for you for a long time!"
Lu Yan's reminder made Taishi Ci remember this incident again, so Taishi Ci curiously asked: "Ci thinks he has no reputation, how did Lu Taishou know about Ci's existence?"
Lu Yan did not answer in a hurry, but asked someone to make some tea and bring it over.
The tea at this time not only contained tea leaves, but also some condiments such as green onion and ginger. Lu Yan was not used to drinking it, but Guo Jia and Man Chong liked it very much.
After everyone settled down in their seats, Lu Yan told everyone about something that happened to Tai Shici in his early years.
"Tai Shi Ci, whose courtesy name is Ziyi, was born in Huang County, Donglai. He was rarely eager to learn, and he served as a county official and reported to Cao Shi."
Lu Yan gave a preliminary introduction to Tai Shici, and also pointed out his family background.
"At that time, there was a rift between the county magistrate and the state pastor. Both sides had different opinions, and it was difficult to tell who was right and who was wrong.
So the imperial court ordered a memorial. At this time, the party who arrived first would definitely have an advantageous situation.
But at that time,
The memorial from Zhou Mu has been sent out in advance.
The county guard was worried about being punished for falling behind, so he looked for someone he could safely appoint to deal with the situation.
Taishi Ci was twenty-one years old at the time and happened to be selected by the county governor, so he traveled day and night and arrived in Luoyang in one go."
Having said this, Lu Yan turned his head and glanced at Tai Shici. Seeing that his expression was as usual and not displeased at all, he continued speaking with confidence,
"Later, Ziyi came to the door of the bus where the memorial was received, and saw that the petty official sent by the state to deliver the memorial was asking for notification.
So Ziyi pretended to be the receptionist and deceived the other party's memorial.
At that time, Ziyi had already hidden the knife in his arms, and the moment he got the memorial, he destroyed it.
Later, Ziyi persuaded the state officials to escape together, but he secretly ran back and delivered a memorial to the county.
After the prefecture heard that the memorial had been destroyed, another official was sent to deliver the memorial.
However, the superior officials did not accept the memorial because the content of the memorial was inconsistent with that of the county. As a result, the state suffered from the shortcomings of the memorial.
Although Taishi Ziyi became famous in the county for this, he was hated by the state, and because he was worried about being persecuted, he fled to Liaodong."
Taishi Ci didn't expect that Lu Yan knew so clearly about his affairs.
Although he always felt that he had done a good job and was proud of his quick wit, he never thought that this matter would be reported to Chen Liu and Lu Yan.
"I never expected that the eunuch would find out about the things Ci committed out of ignorance a few years ago. I feel ashamed, ashamed..."
Taishi Ci was not angry because Lu Yan knew about his past deeds. Instead, he felt a little proud because someone unexpectedly found out about his proud deeds.
Taishi Ci said he was ashamed, but what he showed on his face was a rather complacent smile.
"Hahaha!
Ziyi is brave and careful, and you do righteous things. Even Kong Beihai looks at you differently, so why should you be ashamed?"
Taishi Ci felt relieved physically and mentally after being spoken to by Lu Yan.
He already had a good impression of Lu Yan, and now his favorability level was rising steadily.
"The prefect is joking, the past events are not worth mentioning."
"Compared to your ambitions, those little things are nothing to mention!" When Lu Yan said this, his tone and face suddenly became serious.
He picked up the tea bowl on the table and came to Taishi Ci. "A man is born in troubled times. He should carry a three-foot sword to achieve immortal achievements!"
Taishi Ci's eyes flashed, and he thought: "Here he comes!"
"Ziyi, are you willing to serve Duke Cao and make your own immortal contribution in these troubled times?"
