Gao Shun sat opposite Xun Yu and didn't know what to say.
The relationship between Xun Yu and Cao Cao became increasingly tense, and Gao Shun finally felt that he could not stand aside. If Xun Yu failed to change his fate of dying young, he would definitely regret it.
It is really impossible to dissuade Cao Cao from the idea of calling him Duke of Wei, so the only way is to start with Xun Yu and try to change Xun Yu's mind.
Although he had thought up various excuses before, when he entered the Xun Mansion, Gao Shun realized that he had no way to speak.
Yes, I am afraid that Guo Jia and others have said these words that they have thought of countless times. Guo Jia and others are all eloquent and eloquent people. They have never been able to impress Xun Yu, so how can they persuade him?
Of him?
"Chang Gong, please use it slowly." Seeing that Gao Shun didn't speak for a long time, Xun Yu was not in a hurry and brought a cup of hot tea to Gao Shun.
"Thank you Wen Ruo." Gao Shun originally came to persuade people, but now he was speechless and a little embarrassed.
"Wen Ruo..." Putting it off like this is not the answer. Since you are here, how can you just come to drink tea? "Does Wen Ruo really think that you can stop Mr. Cao by yourself?"
"It can't be stopped." Faced with Gao Shun's question, Xun Yu denied it directly, without any cover-up or refutation.
"It's just that even if you can't stop it, you still have to stop it." Xun Yu said it very casually, but he could also hear his unwavering will.
"Even if Brother Wen Ruo tried his best to stop this matter, you must also know very well that our lord Cao Mengde will eventually become the Duke of Wei. Brother Wen Ruo tried his best to quarrel with his lord, and even lost his job because of it.
Life, but in the end it is very likely that it will just be useless work. Is it worth it?" Gao Shun still tried his best to persuade Xun Yu to change his mind. He kept thinking about his words and sentences, thinking about how to say it most appropriately.
"It's not worth it, but I still have to do it." Xun Yu still replied calmly.
Gao Shun was a little helpless. Xun Yu didn't argue with you at all. You asked him if he could stop Cao Cao, and he said he couldn't. You asked him if it was worth it, and he said it wasn't. However, after he couldn't and it wasn't worth it, he
I always have to add a sentence that I still have to do this, and it is clear to tell you that I know that all this is in vain, but I just want to do this, and I will never change my mind.
Faced with Xun Yu like this, what other words could Gao Shun use to persuade him?
Gao Shun fell into silence...
"Even if Wen Ruo doesn't think about himself, he should always think about the Xun family in Yingchuan. Wen Ruo is now the head of the Xun family. If anything happens, the Xun family will be implicated." After thinking for a long time, Gao Gao
Shun suddenly thought that maybe he could use his family as a breakthrough to try to persuade Xun Yu.
People like Xun Yu who came from a famous family may not attach much importance to their own safety, but they must also attach great importance to the rise and fall of the family. The ancients often valued the family more than the country, and used the rise and fall of the family as a reason for persuasion.
feasible.
Although the Xun family in Yingchuan is now one of the most famous families in the world, there was no news about it at all during the Jin Dynasty. Although Gao Shun didn't know much about the history of the Jin Dynasty, in his vague impression, the gentry of the Jin Dynasty should be treated as kings.
, headed by Xie, followed by the Huan family, Xie family and other families, but there was no Xun family among them. Presumably after the deaths of Xun Yu and Xun You, the Xun family in Yingchuan began to gradually decline.
Hearing Gao Shun talk about his family, a trace of melancholy flashed across Xun Yu's eyes, but he didn't change his mind just because Gao Shun talked about the rise and fall of the Xun family.
"Although Duke Cao is the most powerful person in the world, given the current status of the Xun family in Yingchuan, I am afraid that Duke Cao still has many concerns if he wants to eradicate him. Even if Duke Cao really removes me in the future, he will never do anything to the entire family.
The Xun family took action. However, there is indeed no one in the next generation of the Xun family who is worthy of important responsibilities. If after my death, the Xun family still has no outstanding talents, it may indeed be reduced to this." Xun Yu put his hand on his forehead.
, sighing slightly, "However, the rise and fall of things have their own laws. If the Xun family is really unable to avoid the fate of decline, it is also due to fate. Anyway, I will have already become a handful of loess by then, so why bother too much at the moment."
Gao Shun really had nothing to say. Although the family's honor and favor were important, compared with the Han Dynasty, his status in Xun Yu's heart was still far behind.
However, this also made Gao Shun admire Xun Yu even more. In this era, too many people put their family before the country and ignored or even harmed the interests of the country for the sake of the prosperity of the family. Xun Yu was able to put his family aside for the sake of the Han Dynasty.
It is really valuable.
But because of this, Gao Shun could not watch him die.
"Wen Ruo also said just now that there are laws for the rise and fall of things, so it is normal for the Han Dynasty to decline and the Cao family to rise. With Wen Ruo's wisdom, it must not be difficult to see that the rise of the Han Dynasty after Cao Cao is an inevitable trend. It is the so-called rise and fall of the country.
, the direction of destiny, why should Wen Ruo be so persistent and insist on going against heaven?"
