"Yang Xiu Farewell Biography": In the second year of Xingping, the emperor came to Huayin, talked to Jingri, and sighed: "My ovary."
——
Yang Xiu waited at the foot of the plateau for a long time before he saw Shi Sunrui coming down from the plateau.
Scholar Sun Rui held his head high and his chest high, and the wind was blowing under his feet.
Yang Xiu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but laugh: "Shisunjun is so high-spirited, has he been promoted to a higher rank?"
Shi Sunrui walked up to Yang Xiu, raised his hand and patted Yang Xiu on the shoulder.
"Boy, a gentleman acts when the opportunity arises, and does not wait until the end of the day. Work hard!"
After saying that, without waiting for Yang Xiu to speak, Shi Sunrui left quickly, his sleeves fluttering and his spirits high.
Yang Xiu was stunned for a long time, wondering what Shisun Rui was doing. Zhong Yao stepped forward and told Yang Xiu that the emperor was waiting for him on the plain. Yang Xiu temporarily put aside his confusion, collected his emotions, and walked quickly
original.
Liu Xie stood on the plateau, watching Shisun Rui get off the plateau, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Judging from Shi Sunrui's attitude, his goal should have been achieved.
Of course, Shi Sunrui's goal should have been achieved.
Shisun Rui was not here to care about whether Zhijinwu's troops were strong enough to put out the fire, but to see what changes he had made.
As the saying goes, appearance comes from the heart.
His facial features have not changed, but the change in his inner temperament will inevitably be felt by others. These veteran officials are best at observing faces and communicating with each other. It is impossible to hide them forever.
Fortunately, he had a ready-made convenience: the celestial changes in the past few days.
There is no need for him to explain it deliberately, as long as he reveals some sense of mystery, those people will naturally associate it with God's will.
God wanted him to show off, but he couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to do it and pretended to be cool.
We saw off Shi Sun Rui and welcomed Yang Xiu.
When he learned that Yang Xiu had asked for an audience, Liu Xie was a little confused at first.
But he soon understood the reason.
It may be that Yang Biao felt sorry for himself, or maybe he had more confidence in him and decided to invest more.
The fourth and third Duke of the Yang family in Hongnong, Yang Biao's father Yang Ci was also the late emperor's imperial disciple. He received more favors from the court than Sun Rui, a scholar, and his feelings were relatively deeper. Of course, he also hoped that the fire of the Han Dynasty would never be extinguished.
But when he saw the carriage parked on the side of the road with its head turned and ready to leave at any time, he also understood that Yang Xiu was just here for a formality and had no plans to become an official.
He also had no favorable impression of Yang Xiu and had no desire to recruit him.
He felt that Yang Xiu was like the famous allusion: tasteless.
What a combination of crisp and wonderful words, this kind of brainteaser-style cleverness is actually meaningless, and it will not become a big deal. Putting aside the literary color, in terms of history, his operation of jumping between Cao Pi and Cao Zhi is not wise.
.
What use would he have to this kind of useless thing?
Seeing Yang Xiu coming up, Liu Xie withdrew his gaze and watched Wang Yue and others practice.
Yang Xiu climbed onto the plateau and paused for a moment.
He originally thought that the emperor would turn his head, look at him, and show a polite and eager smile.
But the emperor remained motionless and did not notice his appearance at all.
He had to take the initiative to walk to the emperor's side, bow and salute. "Hongnong Yang Xiu, I have met your majesty."
Liu Xie glanced at Yang Xiu, was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Come down and see me, do you have any advice?"
Yang Xiu was stunned for a moment, his fair face suddenly became bloodshot, as if he had been subjected to an unbearable insult.
He gritted his teeth and suppressed the anger in his chest.
The young man in front of me is not an ordinary person, but a man of today.
The Four Generations and Three Dukes, who are unattainable to others, do not have such great influence on the Emperor.
"Your Majesty paid a visit to Huayin, and I paid homage to you at the order of my mother, and performed the courtesy of a human being."
Liu Xie raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Yang Xiu's resentment is so strong that even the dullest person can hear it. I came here under orders, not because I wanted to.
"If I remember correctly, your daughter-in-law is the daughter of the Yuan family in Runan, right?"
"What your Majesty said is true. My mother is the daughter of the late Sikong Yuan Feng."
"Then General Yuan Shu is your uncle?"
Yang Xiu's face felt a little hot, and he didn't speak with enough energy.
Having an uncle like Yuan Shu, a tough guy on the road, is definitely not something to be proud of.
"Yuan Shu dominates Huainan, and Yuan Shao strives for hegemony in Hebei. It can be said that they are brothers in distress, no two are equal." Liu Xie turned around and looked at Yang Xiu with a half-smile. "How do you plan to continue the glory of the Hongnong Yang family?"
Yang Xiu's face turned red and white, feeling embarrassed and ashamed.
He never expected that the emperor would speak so bluntly, without even covering up, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
Liu Xie smiled silently, turned his head and stopped looking at Yang Xiu. "I have just made some plans for you and have thought of several options. Are you interested in hearing about them?"
Yang Xiu frowned. "Please give me your Majesty's advice."
"First, choose one to serve. There are old in-laws, and with the wisdom of one step, the three princes may not be available, but it is not difficult for Jiu Qing. You just have to be careful. Although they are brothers, they are not of the same mind, and they may not be more serious in the future.
Fight and fight it out on the battlefield. If you vote for the wrong person, hey."
Liu Xie laughed twice and said no more.
Yang Xiu was so excited that he shuddered.
Liu Xie's words were harsh, but they revealed a fact.
The Yuan family and the Yang family are related by marriage, and he is Yuan Shu's nephew, but defecting to the Yuan family is not a good choice.
Yuan Shu is his uncle, but Yuan Shu is a dandy. His character and ability are not as good as Yuan Shao's, so he will definitely not be the final winner.
If he could surrender to Yuan Shao, he might still have a chance. However, Yuan Shu has always been dissatisfied with Yuan Shao. Recently, he openly claimed that Yuan Shao was the son of a slave, which was a complete loss of face.
In comparison, Yuan Shao has a greater chance of success.
However, Yang Biao was at odds with Yuan Shao, and the conflict was very acute.
This road...is blocked.
"Retreat and seek the next best thing." Liu Xie continued: "Before the victory or defeat is decided, you can follow the example of your ancestors and retire to Mount Huashan to read scriptures and teach disciples. When the world is stable, it will not be too late to become an official."
Liu Xie smiled and added, "If by then the disciple is old and tired of politics, it will be the same for his disciple to serve as an official."
The corners of Yang Xiu's mouth twitched, wanting to curse.
I'm only twenty-one years old, and you want me to live in seclusion for the rest of my life?
But after thinking about it carefully, this is not nonsense.
If Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu really can't quarrel, the world will be in chaos and peace will last at least ten years. What will happen in twenty years, thirty years is not impossible.
When he thought that he could only spend his great youth in the mountains, Yang Xiu wanted to curse.
But apart from the two paths mentioned by the emperor, he really couldn't think of a better choice for the moment.
This is the most frustrating place.
Yang Xiu glanced at Liu Xie, who had a slight smile on his face, and couldn't help but retort. "Your Majesty, I'm sorry to say that your Majesty's situation seems to be more difficult than mine. If your Majesty wants to go into seclusion, I might be able to accompany you to talk about scriptures.
Let’s talk to relieve our worries.”
Liu Xie raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at Yang Xiu, and the smile on his lips became wider.
"Even if I go into seclusion, I have to wait until the world is pacified. It's too early to say anything now."
"In this case, I am willing to follow Your Majesty."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Yang Xiu regretted them.
The emperor clearly intended to provoke him and lure him into taking the bait.
Liu Xie was silent. Yang Xiu felt uneasy, his face became a little unnatural, and his eyes towards Liu Xie became a little more wary.
Although the emperor is young, he is very cunning.
After a long time, Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief and slowly shook his head. "Thank you for your kindness. It's just that the battle is not easy, and the hardships involved may not be something you can bear. You'd better go home and serve the imperial court and wait for peace in the world."
He smiled and pulled out his long sword. "I'm going to practice swordsmanship." He walked towards the field and said loudly: "Who is going to spar with me?"
Shi A stepped forward. "I am willing."
Liu Xie raised his sword and laughed. "Let's fight!"
Seeing Liu Xie and Shi Azhan together, Yang Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time felt inexplicably disappointed, with mixed feelings in his heart.
He did come to see Jia Jia with the intention of being perfunctory, but that was because he was perfunctory, rather than being perfunctory by others.
He never thought that he would be rejected by the emperor.
What kind of emperor is a sage, but he is young and mature, and he is not polite to the virtuous and corporal at all, let alone eager to seek talents.
He wanted to turn around and leave, but there was a heavy weight under his feet.
If you just go back like this, how will you explain it to your father, and how will you explain it to other relatives and friends in the future?
It is said that the emperor has no eyesight and no knowledge of people. What about his father Yang Biao and Sun Rui, the scholar who was walking in the wind just now?
Or should we simply say that the emperor felt that my virtue was shallow and that I could not continue the Yang family tradition of Hongnong, and that I had no plan to save the world and would not be helpful to the current situation, so he declined me?
Yang Xiu scratched his head and regretted it very much.
If I had known what happened, I shouldn't have come.
