Han Shimou

When Cao Cao heard this, his pair of eyes that could swallow the world suddenly burst into flames, and he shouted sharply.

"The Prime Minister has already cleared the Central Plains. Yuan Benchu, Yuan Gonglu and other rebels are dead. What kind of thieves are there?"

Cao Cao's shout was like a thunderous bombardment, shaking the whole lobby.Zhang Song didn't panic, but spoke slowly.

"There is Sun Ce in the south of Yizhou, Wenhan in the north, and Liu Biao in the east. At least there are more than [-] armored people. The roads are all blocked, and it is difficult for Yizhou to enter the Central Plains without a road. How can it be peaceful!!?"

"you!!!!"

Cao Cao first saw that Zhang Song was wretched and ugly, so he was very displeased, and because of Liu Bei's incident, he was in a bad mood. Later, he heard the words collided, so he got up and went to the back hall.

When Cao Cao's men and women saw this, their expressions changed one after another.Several people blamed Zhang Song and spoke out.

"For your mission, why don't you be polite and blindly rush? Fortunately, the prime minister saw you from afar, and you didn't see any guilt. You can go back in a hurry! Otherwise, your life will be lost!"

Hearing this, Zhang Song said with a smile instead.

"I, Xichuan, have no sycophants. This time I came here at the command of my lord. I have not completed my mission, how can I leave!"

As soon as Zhang Song's words fell, suddenly a person under the steps shouted angrily.

"You, Xichuan, don't know how to flatter, so is there any flatterer in the Central Plains?"

Hearing this, Zhang Song turned his eyes and took a closer look. He saw the person, with single eyebrows and narrow eyes, red lips and white teeth, and a fair appearance.After Zhang Song looked at it, he secretly paid Zhen to be a hero.Then he asked his name, and the man answered.Only then did Zhang Song find out that this person was Yang Xiu, the son of the Taiwei Yang Biao, whose style name was Dezu, and who is now the master bookkeeper of the Prime Minister's family.

Yang Xiu is erudite and able to speak, with extraordinary knowledge, eloquent and quick-witted.Zhang Song knew that Yang Xiu was an eloquent debater, and he had a hard time with it, so he showed his talent and attracted Cao Cao's attention.And Yang Xiu also relied on his talent, underestimated the people of the world, and deliberately shocked his edge.

At that time Yang Xiu saw Zhang Song's sarcasm, so he invited him out to the academy, and sat down as guest and host, the expressions of the two were different, Zhang Song was determined, Yang Xiu was sharp.

After a while, it was settled from serving tea.Yang Xiu spoke first.

"The road to Shu is rough, and it's hard work from afar. It's not like the Central Plains. The land is vast and the people are outstanding. It's better to live here for a few more days."

Yang Xiu insinuated that Xichuan was too crowded, Zhang Song listened to it, but said it with concentration.

"Follow the lord's order. Even though we have gone through fire and water, how dare we resign. Although the Central Plains is good, it is not where I am. The mission is completed, and I will return to Xichuan as soon as possible."

"Oh? I don't know what the climate is like in the middle of Sichuan? How can you miss it so much?"

"The land of Shu is Xijun, with the ancient name of Yizhou, also known as Xichuan. The road is as dangerous as the Jinjiang River, and even the heroes of the Jiange are in the land, and it is rare for a million soldiers to enter. It is [-] miles back and forth, more than [-] miles in length and width, and the land is vast and magnificent. , the world is unique. Moreover, the crowing of cocks and the barking of dogs are heard, and the market is full of people. The fields are fertile and the land is luxuriant. There is no worry about floods and droughts every year. The country is rich and the people are rich, and there is sometimes orchestral music. It is a paradise on earth. Things are different in a variety of ways, and the mounds are like mountains. No one can match them in the world!"

Yang Xiu's face changed continuously when he heard this. In Yang Xiu's impression, Shu was remote and mixed with barbarians, but it was a wild place that had not yet been reclaimed.But under Zhang Song's sharp mouth, Shu has become a paradise in the world.Yang Xiu secretly exclaimed, then asked again.

"Although the place in the middle of Shu is good, how about the characters?"

Zhang Song smiled brightly, and then talked freely.

"In ancient times, there was the wisdom of Lin Xiangru in literature, and the talent of Fubo in martial arts. Today, there is also Huang Gongheng's strategy to rule the country, and Zhang Guyi's martial arts to stabilize the country. The art of medicine and divination, there are all strange people. The nine streams and three religions are outstanding. Everyone is amazing, every hero is indescribable, how can I count them all!"

Yang Xiu's eyes rippled, and he asked again.

"How many of Liu Jiyu's subordinates are still like the public?"

Zhang Song stared at Yang Xiu indifferently, and said slowly.

"All-round talents in civil and military affairs, both wise and courageous, loyal and patriotic, there are hundreds of them. It is difficult to be elegant if you have little talent and little learning. For example, there are countless people who are not talented!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiu's heart was agitated, he secretly sighed that there are so many talents in Sichuan, just like the stars in the sky, they should not be underestimated, then asked again.

"I don't know what your job is next to you?"

"Indiscriminately filling the post of another leader, lacking talent and lack of ambition, very incompetent. Fortunately, my lord favored me and took over this position temporarily. Dare I ask you, who is the official of the court?"

Yang Xiu's expression turned slightly gloomy upon hearing this.His father, Yang Biao, once ranked among the three princes, is a giant in the literary family, compared with his father's generation.Yang Xiu was really a little embarrassed.Hearing this, Zhang Song smiled brightly and said regretfully.

"I have heard for a long time that you have had hairpin tassels from generation to generation, and the Yang family is an outstanding individual. Why don't you follow your father's example and stand in the temple and assist the emperor by his side. Why do you have to bow down and be a mere official in the Xiangfu?"

Zhang Song expressed the unbearable feeling in Yang Xiu's heart. Yang Xiu was ashamed, but he still replied with a strong face.

"Although a certain person lives in Xialiao, the prime minister entrusts the military, administration, money, and food. Although it is a chore, he can listen to the prime minister's teachings sooner or later, which is very developed, so he took up this post. Besides, a certain person is still young, a fledgling, with little talent and experience. How dare you take such an important position. However, the prime minister appreciates a certain one, and promises to take a low position. A certain day and night toil, do your best, and dare not bear the prime minister's great cause of ordering the country and calming chaos."

There is something in Yang Xiu's words. He implies that Cao Cao is like the emperor, serving under his command, like assisting the court and society.Zhang Song also laughed it off, and then said again.

"Song heard that Prime Minister Cao is a capable minister of governing the world, but his writing is still incomparable. The way of Confucius and Mencius, Wu did not reach the opportunity of Sun and Wu, but he specializes in tyranny and occupies a high position, controlling the court. An Neng has What is taught, is it open to the public? I’m afraid it’s a bit of rebellion! If you listen to it, you’ll become a bandit!”

Yang Xiu's body trembled violently. Although Cao Cao occupies a high position, with boundless power and power covering the sky with one hand, he was alluded to as a thief of the country by the people of the world.The Yang family has always been loyal to the powerful officials of the Han Dynasty, Yang Xiu didn't feel guilty, but he still sternly shouted.

"The prime minister settled the country and put an end to chaos. In today's chaotic world, there are many rebels, most of whom are destroyed by the prime minister. Fortunately, the Han Dynasty has the power of the prime minister, and the imperial power has been revived. The public lives in a corner, remote and desolate, and knows little about the affairs of the world. Do you know that the prime minister is a great talent? I will try to order the public to see it."

After Yang Xiu finished drinking, he ordered the left and right to take a volume of books from the trunk to show Zhang Song.The title of Zhang Songguan's book is "Meng De Xin Shu".This book was written by Cao Cao, and it is also an extraordinary book. Anyone who reads it is amazed at the profoundness of the book.Zhang Song had also heard about this book, so he immediately restrained his emotions, concentrated his attention, and read the book, from the beginning to the end, there are thirteen chapters in total, all of which are essential methods for military use.

After Zhang Song watched it, he was secretly amazed, but asked calmly on the surface.

"I don't know what you think of this book?"

"This is the prime minister's review of the past and the present, combining the essence of the past and the present, and imitating the thirteen chapters of "Sun Tzu". The public deceives the prime minister and has no talent. Can this book be passed on to future generations?"

Hearing this, Zhang Song laughed loudly and said.

"I am a three-foot child in Sichuan. I can also recite this book in secret. It is catchy. What is a 'new book'? !"

Yang Xiu was furious when he heard the words, he stood up and shouted with Zhang Song.

"The prime minister's merits and virtues are boundless, and everyone in the world admires it. Zhang Ziqiao, you have insulted the prime minister three times and four times, which is already a serious crime. This time you are slandering! You say that children in Shu can recite secretly, so please recite a table, if there is a word Make a mistake, I will report it to the prime minister and punish you for a serious crime!" Facing Yang Xiu's threat, Zhang Song remained calm in the face of danger, with a calm expression, and slowly got up.

"Let me try to recite it."

After Zhang Song finished speaking, he opened his mouth and recited the contents of "Meng De's New Book" from the beginning to the end without any mistakes.The more Yang Xiu listened, the more amazed he became. After Zhang Song finished reciting, he unconsciously cried out.

"You have a photographic memory, you are truly a genius in the world!"

Zhang Song returned the salute slightly, very modestly.Yang Xiu paid a lot of attention to Zhang Songsui.The two talked for a while, Zhang Songyu resigned.Yang Xiu sent Zhang Song away and said his farewell.

"The public is staying in the building for a while, let someone report to the prime minister again, and order the public to face the king. At that time, Wang Gong will not anger the prime minister again, you should be cautious."

"So there is Lord Lao Ming."

Zhang Song thanked him and withdrew.Yang Xiu then went back to the mansion to see Cao Cao, and after paying his respects, he asked questions.

"Why is Prime Minister Shi Lai slowing down Zhang Song?"

Cao Cao was in a very bad mood, and said coldly.

"The villager in Bianyu doesn't know the general rules, and his language is not rude, so I am slow."

Yang Xiu sighed secretly in his heart, concentrated his attention, and then said again.

"In the past, Chen Lin wrote a letter to offend the prime minister and insult three generations. The prime minister still tolerates Chen Lin, why not accept Zhang Song?"

Cao Cao frowned slightly, and felt a little displeased with Yang Xiu. If it wasn't for Yang Xiu's talent, Cao Cao would have punished him severely for his words.

"Although Chen Lin writes articles and satirizes me, her talent is amazing. I have always loved talents, so I can't bear to kill them. What can Zhang Ziqiao do?"

"Not to mention that his mouth was like a river hanging in the air, and he slipped his words before. Shi Caixiu showed it with the "New Book of Meng De" written by the prime minister. After reading it once, he could recite it in secret, which is rare in the world. That's what Zhang Ziqiao said. All the three-foot children in Shushu can recite secretly, but Xiu thinks that it is because of his photographic memory. This person is quite capable, why doesn't the Prime Minister accept him?"

Yang Xiu immediately told what happened just now. When Cao Cao heard it, his face turned pale, but he frowned soon and said.

"It's just that this person is ignorant of current affairs, contradicts me repeatedly, violates my dignity, and is incompatible!"

"Prime Minister, why don't you invite Zhang Song to come and see the weather of the celestial dynasty? His heart is shocked, and it shows the prosperity of the prime minister and the cowardice of Xichuan!!!!"

Cao Cao nodded slightly when he heard the words.

"Okay. Just as you say. Come to Japan, I will gather troops in the West Teaching Field. You can lead him here first, so that I can see my military strength. Let him know that sooner or later I will calm the world and wipe out the thieves!!!"

Yang Xiu was overjoyed when he heard the words, so he took the order to retreat, so he went to the library to find Zhang Song and gave them one by one instructions.

On the next day, Yang Xiu and Zhang Song went to the West Teaching Field.Cao Cao was assembled early, with [-] tiger guards, led by Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and deployed them in the teaching ground.The Tiger Guard Army was built by Cao Caohua with a lot of money. Each soldier is one of the best warriors in a hundred.Among Cao Cao's troops, his sharp edge is second only to tiger and leopard cavalry.

Zhang Song saw that Dian Wei and Xu Chu were so vicious and majestic, both of them were invincible in courage, there are few people in the world who are as capable as these two.Then I saw [-] tiger guard soldiers, with bright armor, splendid robes, golden drums shaking the sky, and shining spears.In all directions, each team is divided into teams, the formation is strict, and the soldiers are proud.I also saw the flags fluttering, and the people and horses flying into the sky, as if they were about to break the sky.

Zhang Song stared at it intently, secretly sighing in his heart that Cao's army was mighty and unstoppable.After a long time, Cao Cao called Zhang Song to come to see him.
