How to judge a person's quality is a very interesting proposition.

Take Lu Bu as an example. In another time and space, he first angered his benefactor Ding Yuan and defected to Dong Zhuo, then killed his new benefactor Dong Zhuo and then followed his fellow countryman Wang Yun. Then, he had some promiscuous subordinates including his wives and concubines.

A kind of magical operation... From these perspectives, Lu Bu's personal morality is definitely the kind that is rotten to the core.

Therefore, no one with normal thinking ability should trust him... Have you not seen what Cao Mengde and Liu Xuande are doing at the White Gate Tower? It is obvious that the two most tolerant and employing people in the world can be disgusted like this.

They were really disgusted by this guy.

However, what if these things haven’t happened yet?

From Gongsun Xun's point of view, he can certainly judge the talents and qualities of some people based on his mother's stories and make good use of them... However, if there is a person with good qualities in the story, Gongsun Xun can appreciate it without hesitation.

, support and win over, isn't it a bit strange to presume guilt for a person who is said to do bad things in the future before he does bad things?

Haven't you seen that Lu Fan and Lou Gui are both so serious? In their eyes, Lu Fengxian at this time is a standard innocent person. There is no reason to use extreme means to deal with him. Even once he is dealt with, he will probably use Gongsun Xun.

Reputation was dealt a huge blow.

Besides, this is Lu Bu after all. He is the unparalleled man in front of Hulao Pass in the story, and he is also the man who has no foundation at all as soon as the flying general comes out of the Central Plains.

"The Duke of Ming will march forward, and the general Bu will ride, then the world will not be stable"...Is this a false statement?

In fact, the reason why Gongsun Xun specially summoned the three most trusted people to discuss here shows that he hesitated... The time is different, the identity is different, and the thoughts are naturally different. When Gongsun Xun met Lu Bu for the first time that day, he only asked for

Living in troubled times, of course, he wanted to stay far away from such people; but now, Gongsun Xun finally persuaded his mother to escape and come to Hebei, in order to achieve great things in the future, and to make great achievements one after another, he was unstoppable, how could he not be wrong?

Is this current tiger general tempted?

But then again... the Lu Bu in the story was indeed a bit too screwed up! That's why Gongsun Xun wanted a way to get the best of both worlds.

……………………

"Mr. Cai has come all the way, I shouldn't have troubled you." In the evening, when the wine was in full swing, Wei Song finally got up from the table under the hints of a group of celebrities from Hebei and powerful local families in Zhao.

, stretched his body to worship Cai Yong and Cai Bojie who was sitting at the top. "But most of us Hebei scholars have only admired the famous name for a long time, but have never seen Cai Gong's magical skills of immortal music. I don't know..."

This obviously means that these people want to listen to Cai Yong's world-famous music so that they can go back and brag about it.

In fact, when you are drunk and your ears are warm, it is the most suitable time to play music or dance.

Let me say one more thing here: the reason why Cai Yong fled to Gongsun Xun in panic was because he acted inappropriately during the banquet!

By the way, after this guy was pardoned, Zhao Yan, the governor of Wuyuan County, held a banquet to see him off. During the banquet, he danced for him, but Cai Bojie didn't know which muscle he had cramped, not to mention singing a long song with a piano.

, he didn’t even want to stand up and chat with the other person or say a few words in the wine shop. He actually rolled his eyes and pretended not to see the other person!

Zhao Yan is Zhao Zhong's younger brother. Of course he knew that the other party looked down on him, and since he was always arrogant, he immediately cursed, causing the two of them to break up on the spot!

However, it was fun to put on airs for a while, but the consequences were very serious. After all, Zhao Yan was a serious eunuch with two thousand stones, so he immediately publicly submitted a letter when he returned, saying that when Cai Yong was under supervision here in Shuofang, he often felt sad

Holding grudges and slandering the imperial court!

On the other side, I guess he will secretly write a letter to his brother Zhao Zhong, asking him to vent his anger on him!

Of course, Cai Bojie was not a fool. After returning home, he slept all night. When he woke up, he knew that he had been in big trouble again... On that day, one of their uncles and nephews was ranked as the ninth minister, and the other was the Yilang, but they also offended him.

The whole family was exiled. Now that they are both white men, how can they deal with those people when they return to Luoyang?

And if I go home, I'm afraid it will bring trouble to the family.

Therefore, Cai Yong simply refused to do anything and followed the message Gongsun Xun had given when he saw him off. He secretly contacted Yanmen's Sima Chengpu and asked for protection. Then he took his family and concealed it from Zhao Yan.

His eyes and ears fled all the way from Wuyuan to Handan! In his words, from now on, he will go boating in the rivers and lakes and not care about worldly affairs!

Of course, Cai Bozhe did not show any face to Zhao Yan, but when he got here he wanted to give face to the scholars of Hebei. Even if he did not want to give face to the scholars of Hebei, he still wanted to give some face to Gongsun Xun and Wei Song.

So, he immediately called his servants and got two of his Aegeans. One played to himself, while the other asked Lu Bu to caress and respond to him.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall immediately became cheerful... Those who understood were naturally intoxicated, but those who did not understand were more intoxicated than those who understood. It is estimated that when they went back to play, they would play better than those who understood.

interesting.

And sure enough, when the song ended, the hall was filled with cheers, and countless people praised Cai Yong incessantly.

However, not to mention that Gongsun Xun was probably the only absent-minded person in the hall before. At this time, he took advantage of the lively scene to secretly wave to Lu Bu who had put away the piano case, invited him to his side, and asked in detail. And Binbin

Lu Bu, who was polite and elegant, was well prepared, and the two immediately exchanged greetings during the dinner.

It turned out that after making a three-year agreement with Gongsun Xun that day, Lu Bu continued to stay in Taiyuan and work in order to seek his family background. However, none of the local officials in Taiyuan really paid attention to these immigrants from the border counties. They were nothing more than

Seeing that his family has some wealth and strength, I just want to take the opportunity to make a fortune!

So, of course, the result is needless to say. In the past year, not only has Lu Bu's job been fruitless, but his family's finances have been shrinking due to his activities. Fortunately, he got married according to the engagement at this time.

My wife, Mr. Wei, received a large amount of dowry as a dowry, so I could barely calm down.

But after this incident, this boy from Wuyuan Border County also understood some things, and gave up the idea of ​​serving as an official in Taiyuan.

But in the spring of the next year, Lu Bu, who had just gotten married, regained his ambition. He also learned that his two former companions, Cheng Lian and Wei Yue, had actually become Qu Junhou, the commander of the army, and they were better than him.

Bai Ding was so powerful that he took the initiative to find Gongsun Xun for the first time, and then found out about his background on the battlefield... In fact, when the imperial court's Northern Expedition to Xianbei came out, he did grit his teeth and go, but he only went to Yan

After the city was leveled, it was suddenly discovered that Gongsun Xun had left there and went to Gaoliusei, and the local person in charge was Zang Min, the Xiongnu Zhonglang general. Zang Min happened to be recruiting troops at this time because of the lack of Han troops.

If you don't do anything, you may not want to be a good person. After Wei Yue, you may also think that Zang Min is stronger than Gongsun Xun, who is more powerful than Gongsun Xun. Gongsun Xun didn't ask about these, Lu Bu

I didn’t say... Anyway, the latter took his wife’s dowry, prepared some weapons and horses, recruited some fellow countrymen, and then voted for General Zang Min Zang.

Not to mention what happened later... Zang Min's army certainly had two tigers, Sun Jian and Lu Bu, but what's the use of the courage of two men in a big rout that collapsed from the very beginning? Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses

, seven or eight thousand were all Huns. As the Xiongnu Chanyu was shot off his horse, the entire army immediately became Tan Shihuai's food!

Lu Bu was almost alone and fled back to Yanmen with the large army in panic!

Unlike Sun Jian, since he, Lu Fengxian, was neither a direct descendant of anyone nor had any significant achievements in the battle, Zang Min naturally raised his hand and dismissed him without even showing his face.

As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly... Not to mention that the last valuable asset of the family (the Wei family's dowry) was lost, Lu Bu's biological father also became ill because of the declining family status and the rumors after the defeat. When Lu Bu returned,

He died shortly after returning home.

After the death of a biological father, one must observe filial piety, so even if Gongsun Xun returns to Yanmen, Lu Bu can only stay at home, practice martial arts, and try to pick up the piano skills of his youth. And when Gongsun Xun

After entering Luo as a man, this poor boy simply lost the news about Gongsun Xun. It wasn't until Cai Yong's family was demoted and he passed through Taiyuan County that his life became a little more troubled.

"I was living idle at home that day," Lu Bu said with a wry smile. "There was really no news about the monarch, and I was repeatedly bullied by local officials and wealthy families. At this time, the Wang family of Taiyuan suddenly sent someone to recruit me as a swordsman... In order to make a living,

I then made up my mind to apply. Only when I got there did I find out that my mentor had been demoted. He was passing through Taiyuan on his way to Wuyuan. The Wang family in Taiyuan was worried that there would be assassins sent by my mentor's rivals in the court. He also heard that I was outstanding in martial arts and happened to be the

People from Wuyuan asked me to protect them along the way."

"So that's it." Gongsun Xun looked astonished. "Is Fengxian the teacher and student I recognized at that time? I remember that I told you the name of Cai Gong that day. You should have mentioned my name on the way, right?"

Lu Bu shook his head slowly: "To be honest with you, my teacher thought that my piano skills were not good at that time, so even though he mentioned your name, he didn't accept me..."

Gongsun Xun couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Gong Cai was a little angry with me back then. He was afraid that he would become dissatisfied after hearing you say my name, so he deliberately gave you a bad look... To be honest, it's me who has caused you trouble!"

"That's the case. Now it's because of the favor of the king that I can finally become a disciple of my teacher." Lu Bu also replied seriously when he heard this.

"How do you say this?" Gongsun Xun was also curious for a moment.

"Do you know how I met my mentor again?" Lu Bu said with a chuckle. "My mentor was recently rescued by Cheng Sima and wanted to send someone to Handan, but it was difficult for the army to send people out of the country.

Lian happened to remember the past and wrote to me in advance, so we could meet again. And my mentor just heard me talk about the three-year appointment again on the road, so he accepted me as a registered disciple."

"It was also Fengxian's excellent piano skills that attracted Cai Gong." Gongsun Xun secretly scolded Cheng Lian for being nosy, but his face remained casual, but he suddenly put down the wine glass in his hand. "Fengxian..."

When Lu Bu heard this, he quickly put down his cup and bowed solemnly: "Your Majesty!"

"The three-year agreement was made by you and me ourselves that day." Gongsun Xun said seriously. "Therefore, I am not lying to you. Since you have come to Jizhou to find me, then I, Gongsun Xun, will definitely have a background for you.

It’s just that I don’t know where Fengxian’s ambition lies…”

Lu Bu was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately stood up from the table and bowed to him: "Your Majesty, I have experienced three years, and Bu has gone through all the ups and downs. How can I not know that people are difficult? You are willing to take me in, and Bu is grateful enough. As for the

No matter how big or small your duties are, please feel free to assign them to your Majesty!"

"That……"

"Wenqi, Fengxian, what are you two doing?" At this moment, Cai Yong, who had been restrained for a long time and had already become wild, suddenly shouted, interrupting the exchange between the two. "Why do you still pay respects?

Get up... Putting aside this matter, what do Wen Qi think of what Duke Wei said before?"

"What did Wei Gong say before?" Gongsun Xun was confused and held a breath in his stomach.

"You said you..."

"Uh, Lord." Wei Song smiled and stood up, cupping his hands and saying, "We..."

"Wei Gong, please sit down." In front of so many famous people in Hebei, Gongsun Xun naturally wanted to be a good person. "During the banquet, everyone should feel free and feel free to say whatever they want."

"Oh." Wei Song sat down again and said with a smile. "We just discussed the matter of Handan Public School with Cai Gong. Everyone wanted him to stay here to offer wine to the public school, but Cai Gong said that he was

People who have been punished cannot bear the sacrifice of wine, and they only want to enter the library and become the head of the first floor..."

"What is the truth of Mr. Cai?" Gongsun Xun also laughed when he heard this. "You can obviously imitate Confucius as a teacher for all generations, but why are you only willing to imitate the sage Lao Tzu and hide in the treasure room? Could it be that you have been living in Shuofang for a long time and you have abandoned Confucianism?

Are you following the Tao?"

"Wen Qi, don't talk nonsense!" Cai Yong smiled brightly and waved his hands repeatedly. "How can I compare to these two sages? I'm just a wandering man who really doesn't want to do these things of competing for the first place anymore."

"It's not about competing to be the first, nor about favoring one over the other," Wei Song said after confirming Gongsun Xun's attitude. "But when it comes to talent and learning, Cai Gong stands tall among us.

Like a flock of chickens, a tiger roars like a flock of beasts... If Mr. Cai doesn't take the lead, who would dare?"
To be continued...
