Chapter 591 The Dominance of the Xun Family

Whether it should be said or not, the two of them still had a little bit of joy in their hearts about being able to come to worship Gongsun Zan with Liu Bei.

To be able to share this matter with Liu Bei, to share with Liu Bei the emotions in his heart, to share his worries and nostalgia, and to accompany him to handle a not-so-important private matter, this is the deep trust of the two of them reflect.

However, compared to two people sharing this kind of trust together, both Jia Xu and Xun You seem to hope to surpass each other and enjoy Liu Bei's trust alone.

Sharing profits is not considered a real skill, but exclusive use is considered a real skill, and being able to gain Liu Bei's full trust is their goal as confidantes.

So inexplicably, the two looked at each other while riding on the horse, and then smiled together——

The kind of smile that is not a smile on the skin.

The relationship between Jia Xu and Xun You is still very complicated.

After a while, Liu Bei suddenly turned to look at Xun You.

"Gongda, I heard that Duke Xun is seriously ill. Have you gone back to see him these days?"

Xun You was taken aback by Liu Bei's sudden question, but he immediately reacted and shook his head.

"Before, you were banned from entering the Xun Mansion, and you didn't know much about what happened in the Xun Mansion."

There was news before that Xun Shuang was sick, and the disease was quite serious. Luoyang's famous doctors rushed into Xun Shuang's mansion to treat Xun Shuang, but he didn't know the specific situation.

Liu Bei thought that Xun You knew about it, but he didn't expect that Xun You didn't know much either.

"You won't be allowed in?"

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Grand Xun is really too. How can you still do such a thing at such an advanced age? The mind is too small, it is difficult to last long."

"You said so."

Xun You shook his head and said: "What happened to the Xun family, you have no will to do it. Now it is like this, and it will be hard to say in the future. I hope there are wise people in the family and don't make mistakes again and again, otherwise it will be very difficult for you. Guaranteed what."

Liu Bei glanced at Xun You.

"Gongda, the Xun family has always been a family that pays attention to change, that's why it was able to survive so many years of ups and downs. In my impression, the Xun family has never been a family that accepts death.

The current appearance is quite strange to the Xun family, but in my heart, you are a person who is unparalleled. In my opinion, you and the Xun family are quite a match. "

"…………"

Xun You froze for a moment, but didn't speak.

Jia Xu immediately turned to look at Xun You.

This word...

It's kind of interesting.

Is Liu Bei saying this to imply that Xun You wants him to explore the dominance of the Xun family after Xun Shuang's death?

Xun You was surprised for a while, then habitually turned his head to look at Jia Xu, and seeing Jia Xu looking at him with strange eyes, he immediately came to his senses.

"Your Majesty, I..."

"Gongda, I don't mean anything else, I just want to say..."

Liu Bei said slowly: "No matter what the Xun family thinks of you, you Xun Gongda will always be my indispensable good assistant, I will always have a place for you here, even if you want to leave me, I will not allow you to leave mine."

"Your Majesty..."

Liu Bei's sudden expression caused a ripple in Xun You Gujing Wubo's heart, and a rare look of excitement appeared on his face.

Jia Xu smacked her lips and said nothing.

Liu Bei never said this to him, but Liu Bei had told him about the specific meaning before he set off for Luoyang.

Jia Xu felt that so far, he was still ahead of Xun You.

But if Xun You really wins the dominance of the Xun family, then...

Supplemented by the power of the Xun family, Xun You's weight on Liu Bei's side is far from what he is now alone, but the Jia family behind him does not have that much power.

Moreover, Jia Xu didn't intend to let the Jia family have such a big influence. Based on his understanding of Liu Bei, he could feel that Liu Bei didn't like people with too much power in the family.

and so……

You have to further gain more trust from Liu Bei.

Jia Xu never wanted to lose to Xun You in this matter. He firmly believed that his loyalty was higher than Xun You's, so he didn't want his position to be inferior to Xun You's.

The three of them marched all the way under the protection of the guards, crossed a small hill, and saw a lone grave at the foot of the hill.

When they came to the solitary tomb, the three of them got off their horses. Liu Bei came to the tombstone with some offerings and a bottle of wine. In front of the tombstone, a wine glass is held by itself.

"Brother, this is wine from Zhuo County. Back then, you liked to drink wine from Zhuo County very much. Once you drank it, you would get drunk. You also said that wine from Zhuo County is better than wine from your hometown. I don't believe it, so this time I called Lingzhi. When I was in the county, I specially made some wine from Lingzhi County. After a taste, it was really the same.

The wine from our Zhuo County is more fragrant and mellow, which makes the wine from Zhi County more bitter to drink. So this time when I came back from the Northern Expedition, I specially bought some wine from Zhuo County and brought it back. You moved so fast, you were beheaded before I came back.

In fact, don't blame me, and don't blame the teacher. This matter is really your own fault. Even if you are defeated, as long as you don't disobey the military order and take the initiative to attack, if the teacher doesn't protect you, I will protect your life, but you just disobeyed Military order, so, it's really your own fault.

Don't be angry, I know you have always had such a temper, you are unreasonable, unreasonable, and unreasonable. Do you know that what I hate the most is your temper?Transferring you to the Liaodong vassal state to drink wind and eat sand, and ignore you for so many years, I thought it would grind your temper, but who would have thought that you have not changed at all. "

Liu Bei touched the wine glass with the wine glass in front of the tombstone, drank it in one gulp, and then poured himself another glass.

"To be honest, I'm really angry, and I really wanted to teach you a lesson, but when I found out that you were dead, I felt like there was a void in my heart. I always felt that something was wrong. No, I just came back , I took the time to see you.

Change your temper, don’t be so self-righteous anymore, and don’t always think that everyone in the world owes you. I have suffered much more than you, and I don’t feel that God owes me. As long as God doesn’t treat you with a genetic disease, you will I don't owe you, so don't always be so angry.

Remember my words, reflect on yourself below, think about what you did wrong, how to correct it, and how to be a good person next time. In this way, after 18 years, you will definitely be a good man again, and it will not be in vain You suffered such a big loss, didn't you? "

After drinking another glass of wine, Liu Bei sighed and poured himself another glass of wine.

"This is the last drink. I have a lot of things to do and I don't have enough time. This time I took the time to visit you. I still have a lot of things to do when I go back. Many people pointed at me for promotion and prosperity. You could have been one of them, but... ...you are useless yourself!
Alright, let’s stop here this time. I will come to see you every year on your death day. Also, don’t worry about your wife and son. Although I can only live as a commoner, I will take care of you. Taking care of them so that they have no worries about food and clothing is worthy of our friendship over the years. "

After finishing the last glass of wine, Liu Bei spilled the glass of wine in front of Gongsun Zan's tombstone on the ground, and then stood up.

"Brother, take a good rest. You have been striving for strength and victory all your life. In the end, what are you left with? In your next life, try not to be born in this troubled world. Find a peaceful and prosperous world, where you will be born in a gentleman's family, read books, write poems, To be a romantic and gifted scholar, such a life should be very happy, right?"

Liu Bei stood in front of Gongsun Zan's tombstone for a while.

Looking at Liu Bei's slightly lonely back, Jia Xu was quite emotional.

"If Gongsun Bogui didn't die, he should be able to be reused by the junhou, so that he wouldn't become such a lonely ghost. It's a pity that he failed the junhou's trust in him."

"How could he not die?"

Xun You shook his head and said, "If he doesn't die, how much responsibility will the Lord have to bear for him? I don't think he has anything worth using. The most important thing for a subject is loyalty, which is to obey orders, and only disobey military orders. That's enough for him to die several times."

"That's true."

Jia Xu smiled slightly and looked at Xun You: "Let's not talk about Gongsun Bogui, the dead have nothing to say, but you, Gongda, did you hear what the lord meant just now?"

"I'm not an idiot, of course I can tell."

Xun You said without changing his expression: "Of course I know the ardent expectations of the princes for me, but the Xun family is not that simple. power?
Wenhe, it's easy for your Jia family to master. As long as you have power and power, you are the master of the family. But the Xun family is different. The Xun family not only needs power, but also needs a name. "

"Really? Then the Xun family will marry the eunuch back then?"

Jia Xu sneered and said: "In my opinion, Junhou is right. The Xun family is such a family that is good at changing. They don't really care so much about the so-called principles and the so-called main line. Shocking, Nei Li, it's just talking, anyway, you are all surnamed Xun, Gongda, sometimes names don't matter that much."

Xun You was silent for a while, lowered his head, and did not speak.

Of course, he knows the nature of the Xun family better than anyone else, but the hurdle in his heart is not so easy to get over.

After the silent mourning, Liu Bei turned around and walked towards the place where Jia Xu, Xun You and the guards were not far away.

"Let's go back."

Liu Bei got on his horse silently, and steered the horse to go in the direction it came from.

Jia Xu and Xun You glanced at each other and followed Liu Bei's actions.

The group quickly returned to Luoyang and continued what they were supposed to do - completely destroying the Modern Literature School.
