Since there are laws for the rise and fall of things, then the rise of Cao Dynasty and Han Dynasty was also the direction of destiny.
When Gao Shun said these words, he was quite rebellious.
Xun Yu talked about the rise and fall of his own family, which was not a particularly outrageous thing. However, Gao Shun bluntly said that the Cao Dynasty was the rise of the Han Dynasty. At least at the moment when the Han Dynasty was not extinct, he would definitely be charged with treason if he said this.
Already.
A trace of anger flashed across Xun Yu's face, but he was not very angry. Although the rise of Cao Dynasty to Han Dynasty sounds very rebellious, it is basically what most of the officials in Cao's camp expected.
Therefore, although Xun Yu felt unhappy after listening to Gao Shun's words, he was able to hold back this trace of anger.
"Perhaps the change of dynasty is just a matter of days, but since I am a Han official, there is no way I will rebel before the fate of the Han Dynasty is over. If the Han Dynasty is really going to perish, then I will definitely die before the Han Dynasty!
"Xun Yu's tone changed from firm to high-spirited. What is hidden in the body of a gentle gentleman is unyielding iron bones.
Listening to Xun Yu's words, Gao Shun felt a sad feeling in his heart. Xun Yu was undoubtedly an upright and pure man, a moral model and a model gentleman of this era, but it was precisely because Xun Yu was the most typical gentleman.
, so it is inevitable to face a dead end.
Gao Shun put away the sadness in his heart, drank the tea in his cup, stood up and said goodbye to Xun Yu.
He had already uttered every word of persuasion he could think of, but none of these words could move Xun Yu.
In fact, Gao Shun knew from the beginning that no one could change Xun Yu's belief, and he was just taking a chance. Now that his persuasion failed, it was a completely normal outcome.
However, even if he had expected this result, Gao Shun still couldn't suppress the deep melancholy in his heart after stepping out of the gate of Xun Mansion.
How could Gao Shun not feel melancholy when he thought that Xun Lingjun was about to die soon?
——————————————————————————————————On February 5, the tenth year of Jian’an (AD 205), Xun Yu passed away in his mansion.
.
There were no warning signs of Xun Yu's death. Xun Yu usually worked and rested on time, but that day he didn't get up. When the servants went to wake Xun Yu up, they found that the master of the house had died.
Xun Yu passed away from this world suddenly and quietly, leaving behind countless shocks, doubts and sadness.
Xun Yu's sudden death was a huge blow to the Han Emperor and the royalists. They had suffered so hard over the years and finally saw a hope of being able to compete with Cao Cao, but they didn't want it to be shattered silently.
Everyone pointed the finger at Cao Cao. Xun Yu's death was really strange. Xun Yu was only forty-three years old this year, and he was in good health. He was not known to have any diseases. How could he die so easily?
Have you passed away?
It must have been Cao Cao who secretly caused harm, causing Xun Lingjun to die unjustly!
However, now that Cao Cao is at the peak of his power, let alone they have no evidence, even if they have conclusive evidence that it is Cao Cao who killed Xun Yu, what can they do to Cao Cao?
The emperor Liu Xie is now in a complete panic. Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo, the number one heroes under Cao Cao, are now dead at the word of death. How can Liu Xie not be afraid of them?
His original plan to rely on Xun Yu to contain Cao Cao came to nothing. Since Cao Cao had the means to unknowingly kill Xun Yu, wouldn't his own life be under the control of the other party at all times?
If Cao Cao wanted to kill himself, could it be as easy as killing Xun Yu?
Thinking of these, how could Liu Xie still suppress the panic in his heart?
———————————————————————————————— On February 8, Xun Yu’s funeral was held in Yingchuan.
The standards of Xun Yu's funeral were extremely high. Cao Cao ordered that all the procedures for Xun Yu's funeral should be handled with the courtesy of the prime minister.
At Xun Yu's funeral, Cao Cao's important civil and military officials gathered together, and everyone with some status was present.
Cao Cao even personally went to Xun Yu's tomb with his disciples to cry and pay homage.
In front of Xun Yu's tomb, Cao Cao burst into tears and cried until the sky was dark.
Cao Cao did not say any words of condolences. After arriving at Xun Yu's tomb, he just kept crying.
Cao Cao felt sorrow from the bottom of his heart. Xun Yu's death was by no means the ending he longed to see. If possible, he looked forward to sitting on the same table with Xun Yu again and laughing and talking about the general situation of the world.
But all of this can only be realized in a dream. The good times of the past when monarchs and ministers interacted have become history forever and will never come back.
Whenever he recalled that Xun Yu was smiling in front of him, talking about success and failure, and pointing out the country with confidence, the sadness in Cao Cao's heart kept pouring out like spring water.
All the civil and military personnel in the Cao camp who were following Cao Cao felt sad in their hearts at this moment. As the saying goes, when a rabbit dies and a fox is sad, everything hurts its own kind. What's more, it is one of his colleagues who has passed away now, so sadness is inevitable.
As for Guo Jia and other people who were usually close friends with Xun Yu, they were even more in tears at this time.
This was the second time Gao Shun saw Cao Cao so sad. The first time was when Cao Ren passed away. That time, Cao Cao also cried extremely miserably at Cao Ren's funeral.
Regarding the issue of treating Xun Yu, Cao Cao must have been extremely unwilling to go to such a step. Unfortunately, the difference in beliefs between the two people destined to such a cruel ending. Perhaps this is also a way to show his cruelty in troubled times.
Gao Shun suddenly felt that he had already adapted to this troubled world in the more than ten years since he traveled through time, but it seemed as if he had not adapted at all.
Thinking about this, Gao Shun sighed softly, and a teardrop fell from the corner of his eye.
