Chapter 127 Xun Yu is actually Liu Zhang's fancier brother
Liu Zhang, who had no idea about his appearance, felt a little ashamed standing next to a man!
How handsome is a man who looks handsome to all men!
Compared with Liu Zhangruo, he is as different as clouds and mud! It is almost impossible to look at him!
"uncle."
Xun You looked very respectful to the visitor and bowed his hands.
"uncle?"
Liu Zhang glanced at Xun You in surprise, then turned to look at the man in even more surprise.
"You are Xun Yu!"
Liu Zhang's voice became shrill with excitement, attracting the attention of everyone around him.
The man was a little embarrassed to be looked at by so many people, but he still nodded.
"I am none other than Xun Yu, but the general is in front of you?"
"Ah? Ah! Yes, it's me, I'm Liu Zhang!"
Liu Zhang combined the excitement of seeing Xun Yu with the embarrassment of the people around him watching the show, and suddenly became a little incoherent.
When Dian Wei saw that the people around him were still watching him, he suddenly showed a ferocious expression.
The people were so frightened by Dian Wei that they dispersed, but he left a message before leaving.
"Come on, this person is so ugly..."
Dian Wei didn't feel that the people were talking about him at all, but instead defended Liu Zhang.
"My lord, they say you are ugly, do you need me to teach them a lesson?"
Liu Zhang suddenly felt a black line on his forehead, how could he have such a stupid subordinate!
"You ugly guy, where do you get the confidence to say I'm ugly!"
"I..."
Dian Wei also wanted to refute, but was directly scolded by Liu Zhang.
"Shut up!"
Liu Zhang was too lazy to pay attention to this ugly and dark Dian Wei. He really regretted it. Why didn't he bring Zhao Yun here?
Liu Zhang quickly changed his expression and bowed to Xun Yu.
No wonder even Mi Heng, a big troll in the Eastern Han Dynasty, was amazed by his appearance! He is indeed impeccably handsome!
"Brother Xun's name is like thunder! I didn't expect to see him here today!"
Xun Yu was a little flattered and quickly returned the favor to Liu Zhang.
"How can you get into the ears of the general after you have such a poor reputation?"
Xun You glanced at Liu Zhang meaningfully and understood what he meant.
"My lord, my uncle Xun Yu, whose courtesy name is Wen Ruo, is a direct descendant of the Xun family in Yingchuan. My uncle's father, Xun Nu, is known as the Eight Dragons of the Xun family!"
Liu Zhang nodded slightly to Xun You. He understood what Xun You meant. There was no way Xun Yu could be recruited by him!
Xun You couldn't understand Xun Yu's talents very well. Both of them were smart since childhood, but unfortunately their treatment was very different!
Xun Yu was regarded as the hope of the Xun family since he was a child, while Xun You was only counted as a member of the Xun family.
Xun Yu looked at his nephew, and then fixed his gaze on Liu Zhang. He seemed not to have expected that Xun You would say this.
"Gongda said it before! Yu is just relying on his father, Yu Ming!"
Liu Zhang knew that he could not recruit Xun Yu, but Xun Yu was so handsome and full of fragrance that talking to him really felt like a spring breeze!
"Brother Wen Ruo is so humble! Gongda has an astonishing talent. This shows that Wen Ruo's talent must be extraordinary!"
Xun Yu smiled, Liu Zhang was too friendly to him.
"Gongda's intelligence is astonishing, he is a hundred times better than Yu!"
Even Xun You felt a little embarrassed. He pointed at Xun Yu and shook his head with a bitter smile.
"Uncle, why do you even make fun of me?"
"Hahaha! Both of you are amazing talents, there is no need to be modest!"
Liu Zhang laughed loudly, how much he hoped to get the help of his uncle and nephew, but it was a pity that it was difficult to reach the sky!
"Uncle, are you going to the Wenhui?"
Xun Yu nodded, "Yes! This year's cultural gathering is quite grand, and I also accepted Benchu's invitation."
Yuan Shao! He will go too?
Liu Zhang couldn't help but be a little surprised. It seems that he will meet many celebrities today! "Brother Wen Ruo, are you willing to go with me?"
Liu Zhang sent an invitation to Xun Yu. Even if he couldn't recruit him, it would still be a good choice to make friends with such a noble and honest man.
Xun Yu gave Liu Zhang a complicated look, with some doubts in his expression.
"General Hou, are you not afraid of being stigmatized?"
Liu Zhang frowned, not knowing what Xun Yu meant, and turned to look at Xun You.
"My lord, my uncle married the daughter of Tang Heng, the official of the Imperial Palace, so there will always be some criticism from my uncle!"
As soon as Xun You explained, Liu Zhang understood. In fact, Xun Yu was not to blame for this matter, it was not his original intention at all.
Xun Yu's father, Xun Nu, was afraid of eunuchs, so he let Xun Yu marry Tang Heng's daughter.
Thinking of this, Liu Zhang couldn't help but secretly rejoice! If he hadn't arrived in time, Cai Yan would not have dared to disobey Cai Yong, so he would have naturally married Wei Zhongdao!
"The world has many pedantic opinions. If Tang Heng and others had not killed Liang Ji, Emperor Huan would not have been able to survive!"
Xun Yu sighed softly and shook his head in despair.
Just because I married the daughter of a eunuch, I have been unable to hold my head high ever since! Fortunately, I was talented and famous when I was young, otherwise I don’t know how I would have been reviled by the world!
"Brother Wen Ruo, don't worry. You must know that a thousand cups of wine is too little to drink with a close friend, and half a sentence is too much to talk without speculation! Why should I worry about the ignorant words of the world?"
Liu Zhang just gave a few casual words of advice. A person with extraordinary intelligence like Xun Yu would not change because of a few words from others.
What Liu Zhang didn't expect was that when Xun Yu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"A thousand cups of wine is too little to meet a close friend, but half a sentence is too much to talk without speculation..."
"Yu once heard that the general was able to compose poems when he was young, and later he became more proficient in poetry. His talent was astonishing! When I saw him today, he certainly lived up to his reputation!"
Seeing Xun Yu's admiring eyes, Liu Zhang felt slightly ashamed!
This is purely his mantra, and if it can be said clearly, there will be countless ‘great talents’ in later generations!
"Brother Wen Ruo, that's a great prize! Zhang really doesn't dare to accept it!"
Xun You also looked at Liu Zhang with admiration. He was capable of both literary and military skills. Such talents were rare at that time!
"My lord is good at everything, but he is too humble and never shows off his talents!"
"I remember that the last time my lord composed a poem was in Beihai, right? When he said goodbye to Mr. Zheng Xuan, he expressed his ambition with poems!"
Liu Zhang was embarrassed again. He 'composed' a lot of love poems to Cai Yan, but they didn't know about it.
"Haha, I don't have any talent! I did it by accident, haha, I did it by accident!"
Liu Zhang's awkward reply became modest in Xun Yu's eyes, and he looked at Liu Zhang with even more admiration.
"I vaguely remember General Hou's song "Going out of the fortress", especially those two lines: "Let the general fly in the dragon city, but don't teach Hu Ma to cross the Yin Mountain!"
Xun You also kept nodding his head with admiration on his face.
"I admire your lord's ambition!"
Liu Zhang was now both proud and embarrassed.
I am proud of the praise and admiration of two top wise men.
Embarrassed and ashamed deep inside!
"My little knowledge is like the light of a firefly, and these two gentlemen are like the brightness of the bright moon! Don't try to mislead me again!"
Xun Yu couldn't help but admire Liu Zhang. He was no older than a weak official, he was a post general, and he had more than ten thousand troops! Why was he so humble!
I am just a low-level official in Luoyang, and I have no reputation, so I will never flatter myself!
Why!
Even the ancient sages may not have gone through this!
Fortunately, Liu Zhang couldn't hear Xun Yu's thoughts, otherwise he would have been embarrassed and had to crawl into the hole!
He can be thick-skinned, but he can't be completely shameless!
"Two gentlemen, the cultural gathering is still some distance away, let's hurry up and get there!"
Seeing that Xun Yu was still praising himself, Liu Zhang hurriedly urged him to go on his way!
