The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Xun Zhen spoke out to solicit, but just as he expected, Zhao Yun, despite his young age, was an assertive, prudent and cautious person. He had only met Xun Zhen for the first time, and he didn't understand Xun Zhen, so why would he be willing to accept her call?

Zhao Yun said in his heart, "It turns out that Lord Xun came to see me because he heard the words of the prisoners of the Yellow Turbans. He is an extraordinary warrior, made a special visit, and even saw a corporal." After seeing him, Xun Zhen did not despise him because of his youth, but he behaved politely and called himself a king, and gave him a lot of respect. , Knowing that he was only famous in Zhending and Changshan, and being handed over by Xun Zhen, he was very moved, but he still politely refused.

He said: "You have come to see me on a special trip, I am very moved by this kind of love, but my studies have not been completed, I am afraid I cannot travel far away from home, and I am just a wild boy, only talented , even if Cong Jun goes, probably won't help much. Jun Cong Huangfu has moved to several states and is invincible. You can see Yingwu, not because Yun is young and ignorant. He came from afar. It can be seen that he is good and virtuous. A good man is enough to bring peace to the people, so when you go to Zhao State, you will surely be able to make another meritorious deed."

Although he was young, his words were very organized. He first thanked Xun Zhen for his love, then politely refused, and finally wished Xun Zhen another achievement.

This made Xun Zhen fall in love with him even more, and thought: "You are so good at a young age, how can you be so good in a few years?"

Before coming here, Xun Zhen regarded Zhao Yun as the future of Wu. After coming here, after this short contact, he no longer regarded Zhao Yun as the future of Wu. Like Xin Ai, he regarded Zhao Yun as a scholar. Son, he thought: "There are not many Confucian scholars under my account, Li Bo and Shi Nuo are ordinary people. They can usually do some papers, but I really don't feel comfortable leaving important things to them. Xuankang is simple and lovely. Although it has potential, it has not yet matured, and it cannot be of great use at the moment. The only people who can use it are Gongda and Zhicai. If I can get Zhao Yun, it will be a big help for me."

His officials are getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more places where he needs to employ people. When he was the postal governor of the county, he didn't feel it, but when he was promoted to Sima by Huangfu Song and led thousands of people to fight, he already felt that the account was available. There are too few people, so he has to do everything by himself, and many things have to be done by him. Now he has been promoted to lieutenant of Zhao State, responsible for the military affairs of one country and five cities. The feeling of being stretched thin, if Zhao Yun was just a warrior, then he would not be so eager to recruit him. The key is that Zhao Yun is not only brave, but also talented, enough to entrust major affairs. A big help.

Having said that, Xun Zhen also knew that it was impossible to easily recruit Zhao Yun to his command, and was ready to fight a protracted battle. After hearing Zhao Yun's refusal, he was not disappointed, he laughed and said: " Chengjun auspicious words, if I can do meritorious service in Zhao Guoli, I will not forget to thank you." Since Zhao Yun declined, he did not say more, pointed at the pear tree, and smiled, "The pear tree in Jun's family bears many fruits. It's a good life, I've been talking for a long time, but I'm a little thirsty, I don't know if I can ask two pears from the king's family to eat?"

Zhao Yun thought that Xun Zhen would be angry after hearing the rejection, but he didn't expect him to act as if nothing had happened, still chatting and laughing cordially, unconsciously saying: "Master Xun has made great achievements in battle, he is a powerful yellow turban, and he is an official who is more than two thousand stones. , neither arrogant nor arrogant, bowing down to others, riding lightly and simply obeying, not leaving long distances, personally came to my house to recruit me, but after being rejected by me, he didn't get angry, he talked and laughed freely, this man is a measure of Yawei." He got up. He said with a smile, "I couldn't hold the fruit in the water, but Yun was disrespectful." He asked Yan Meng to bring a ladder over, support it on a tree, climb up, pick some pears, wash them with well water, and put them in On the plate, I served it to Xun Zhen and others, and invited them to taste it to quench their thirst.

Pineapples are rich and juicy. In order to prevent the juice from getting on the clothes, Xun Zhen, Xun You, and Xuan Kang all stuttered. He was beautiful, but his pear-eating appearance was the same as Dian Wei, the burly and burly man, which attracted Yan Meng's attention. Zhao Yun scrupulously obeyed the etiquette, and although he was surprised by Xin Ai's appearance, he didn't look at it much. When Xun Zhen finished eating a pear and washed his hands, he said, "If you want to recruit talented people, Yun has someone who recommended it."

"Oh? Anyone?"

"This person's surname is Xiahou, and he has a single name with the Chinese character Lan. Yu Yun is a native of the village. He has passed down the law in his family and is clear about the law."

"Xiahoulan?" Xun Zhen turned her eyes sharply.

Yan Meng said, "That's right, it's the guy who shot arrows by the stream in the village."

Zhao Yun asked, "Have you met Xiahoulan?"

Xun Zhen said in his heart, "I remember that in "Romance" it said that Xia Houlan was a young general who carried a sword for Cao cāo, but why is it in Zhao Yun's mouth, he knows the law?" He did not doubt Zhao Yun, but doubted that he remembered wrongly. , or maybe it's written in the "Romance" incorrectly. He said: "On the way I came here, I happened to see several people shooting arrows under the willows by the streams in and outside the village. One of them shot three arrows in a row, and all of them hit the target fifty paces away. He had excellent archery skills. Uncle Ye thought it was you, but Xiao Xiong said he was Xia Houlan."

"Since you have seen Xiahoulan, you should already know a little about it."

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "The king said that his family passed down the law, so I don't know whether his family knowledge is better than his archery?"

Xun Zhen had a shortage of all kinds of talents, but only those who understood the law. The teachers of Xuankang, Li Bo, Shi Nuo and others, Xixiang San Lao Xuan Bo studied the law under the Guo family in Yangzhai when he was young. Later, he also served as a judge in Yingyin County. Many unjust cases are praised by the county and township. The teachers are proficient in the law, and the students are not bad.

Zhao Yun replied, "Xiahoulan's archery skills are not as good as his family learning."

Hearing what Zhao Yun said, Xun Zhen started to take it seriously. Lianzhu arrows were rare, but such excellent archery skills were not as good as his homework, so this Xia Houlan was a talent. He said, "Can you introduce me?" The normal procedure for making friends between Han and Han is: If two people who have never met before want to become friends, they must have someone who knows both of them to introduce them to each other. No loss of etiquette. Strictly speaking, it was rude for Xun Zhen to rush into Zhao Yunzhi's gate, but he was a "respectful elder", and doing so was called a corporal of Lixian.

Zhao Yun has no objection.

The process of getting to know Xiahoulan went smoothly, and the process of recruiting Xiahoulan was also smooth. As soon as she heard that the person who recruited her was Xun Zhen, the new lieutenant of Zhao State, Xia Houlan agreed without much thought. When I came to Changshan, I didn't recruit Zhao Yun, but got Xia Houlan, who "understands the law", but finally did not make a free trip.

Xun Zhenxin worshipped Lieutenant Zhao Guo, and could not stop in Changshan for a long time. He stayed at Zhao Yun's house for one night, and left the next day. Xia Houlan followed suit. Zhao Yun and Yan Meng kept sending Xun Zhen and others out of the county border and watched them ride their horses away before turning back.

On the way, Yan Meng asked Zhao Yun incomprehensibly, "Brother Xun, who is famous for attacking the yellow turban in front of his army, and Xin Ai under his tent chases and slashes Zhang Jiao. Yin Yin, over twenty years old, is already a lieutenant of a country, he invited you, why did you refuse?"

"A mediocre person is a king, and a wise man should not be called by him. When a wise man is in power, a wise man will not be called. Why? Being an official under the Ming ruler can display his talents, while being an official under the dim master may lead to his own danger. , or depression and aggrieved, even if he hangs the seal and leaves, he will be laughed at by the world. In the past, Zhi Yun was Ouyang She's hero, because he refused to listen to his advice, so he said that he retired from illness. The officials and officials choose the monarch, just like the field chooses the sky. If the weather is good, the four fields will have a good harvest. If the weather is bad, the grain will not be harvested. How can I be careless? What kind of nature does he have, so he declined."

…

Facing the turbulent autumn wind, Xun Zhen felt cold all over her body, and she regained her mind and stopped recalling the events before she came to Zhao State.

After he left Zhending that day, he continued on the road. He arrived in the territory of Zhao State in the evening of the next day, joined with Xi Zhicai, Xu Zhong, etc. After entering the city, he first met Zhao King Liu Yu, Zhao Fu Huangzong and Zhao Prime Minister Liu Heng, and then met many officials in the country such as Lang Zhongling, servants, Changshi, Zhishu, etc., and then he officially took office.

It has been more than ten days since he took office. In addition to socializing with the officials of the kingdom, he has spent most of his time getting acquainted with the county soldiers and places. With the help of Xun You, Xi Zhicai, Xin A, etc. The situation of the local officials and people has been roughly figured out. They have been busy for more than ten days and have not been out of the city. Today, Chongyang, I was busy taking time out, so I brought everyone out to play.
