Chapter 612
Seeing Liu Xie staring at him viciously, Xu Shu's heart felt helpless and hesitant for a moment...

At that moment, for some reason, a feeling of despair filled Xu Shu's body, and he couldn't drive it away even if he wanted to.

Can a monarch who cannot admonish his loyal ministers be regarded as the lord of his career?Xu Shu asked himself in his heart.

Back then, when I was under Liu Bei's command, I heard Liu Bei bluntly compare himself with Cao Cao many times to the generals.

At that time, Liu Bei said three words very frankly about the comparison between himself and Cao Cao: "It's not as good as it is!"

This is the magnanimity and calmness that the owner of a career should have.

Up to now, saying that you are not as good as Gaozu is to give you face. Could it be said that you have the same talents as Gaozu Liu Bang?
If you are like Liu Bang, then you won't be bullied by Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, Yuan Shang and others like the third grandson!

A lord who can see clearly the gaps and shortcomings between himself and the enemy is the real lord, who has the qualifications to compete for world hegemony and compete with the lords of the world; and the lord who thinks highly of himself and arrogantly treats others like nothing will sooner or later be dismissed by the times. Eliminated by huge waves, submerged in the turbulent river of history.

Originally, in Xuchang, the emperor who respected him very much and had a humble heart no longer existed. Since he arrived in Luoyang, Xu Shu could clearly feel that the emperor was becoming more and more dependent on the important officials of the royal family and famous families, while he was increasingly relying on himself. Alienation, even if he helped him escape from Xuchang at the beginning, Xu Shu was the one who served Liu Bei first and then Cao Cao after all, so he was not considered a direct descendant of the emperor.

Just escaping from Xuchang and occupying the small land of Luoyang to stand on his own made the emperor feel elated and powerful. How could such a person be the opponent of Yuan Shang, Liu Bei and others?

Xu Shu helped the emperor not because he admired Liu Xie, but because of his own standpoint. If Liu Xie was proud of him, he would naturally say what he should say and do what he should do... But if Liu Xie was not satisfied with him, Why did he bother to be mean?

A student of Shuijing, he is a person whose eyes are higher than his head!For example, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were condescended by Liu Bei to visit them several times. Although Xu Shu was not as famous as the two, he was as proud as them!

If you don't want to listen to me, then I just don't say anything!It's up to you to mess around.

Don't think I should help you!Shuijing students never knelt down and begged others!The Son of Heaven is no exception!
Thinking of this, Xu Shu drooped his eyelids, without even looking at the teacup Liu Xie threw on the ground, stepped back, stood among the crowd, and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Liu Xieqi was even more mad. This Xu Shu thought he was talented, and he didn't take himself as the supreme being in his eyes at all. If it wasn't for the great contributions he made to him in the past, he would have to give him some color!

Who am I?It's the Son of Heaven!He is the Lord of the peoples!He is just Xu Shu, how dare he play tricks on me?
He coldly turned his eyes away and stopped looking at him. Liu Xie pondered for a while, and said: "For the sake of the country of the great Han, to expand the territory, and to suppress the rebellion, this risk is worth taking! Li Ru's pardon and edict For Tuoba Liwei's kingship, I can issue an imperial edict, but I have to send someone to tell them that the imperial edict must be kept in a safe place before the major event is settled, and should not be shown to others..."

Behind Dong Cheng, Huangfu Li remonstrated: "Old servant Ge Gong is loyal to His Majesty, Your Majesty might as well send him to go secretly, announce the imperial edict, and explain the benefits to Li Ru and others by the way..."

"........."

"........."

When I was young, all the emperors finished their research, and the important officials walked out of the Luoyang palace. At this moment, the sky outside the palace had unknowingly started to drizzle. Xu Shu looked up at the sky, but saw dark clouds, faint The thunder was rolling, and it seemed that there would be a downpour soon.

"The general trend is over." Xu Shu muttered silently, shook his head and walked down the steps.

************************
Xuchang, the residence of Xun Yu.

Today's Xuchang is sunny and full of warmth, Yuan Shang has nothing to do, he pulls Sima Yi over, the master and servant are chatting and laughing, while under the secret protection of the guards, they stroll to Xun Yu's mansion as a guest.

At this moment, Xun Yu's mansion is getting colder and less popular.

It's no wonder that with the imperial edict of the emperor, the Xun family fell from the first prominent family in Yingchuan to the bottom of the valley. Killing the path to becoming an official is tantamount to falling into a poor family!Many scholars avoid it, who would like to be dependent on them.

That's what people say when their tea is cold.

Seeing Yuan Shang and Sima Yi coming to the Xun Mansion, the old steward of the Xun Mansion rushed out to greet them. How could he not know who these two were?Nodding and bowing, he said authentically: "The general is here to visit! The Xun Mansion is very fortunate, please stop for a moment, the old man will go in and pass on..."

"The general wants to go in, do you still need to report? Get out of the way!" Sima Yi raised his hand and pulled the old housekeeper aside. The pair of lords were like hooligans running rampant in the market, regardless of whether they wanted to or not. If you want to go to Xunfu.

The old housekeeper was sweating anxiously from behind, but he still didn't dare to offend, so he could only follow behind Yuan Shang and Sima Yi step by step.

The two came to the main hall swaggeringly, but they saw the incense table for confession in the courtyard outside the hall, which was full of memorial tablets, and the words were sparsely written.

Xun Yu was dressed in plain clothes, squatting on the ground, holding a roll of white silk in his hands, and three or five spirit tablets were erected in front of him, staring at those spirit tablets in a daze, as if he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing this, Yuan Shang couldn't help squinting his eyes, frowning tightly, and said in a low voice: "Look, Zhongda, what does that guy Xun Yu want to do with his posture?"

Sima Yi was taken aback when he heard the words, and said: "I don't know, is it because the Xun family was punished by the emperor, and the mood was offended? General, why don't we hide? I heard that people with mental illness are very dangerous. , committing insanity can bite people to death..."

Yuan Shang wrinkled his eyes, looked silently at Xun Yu who was holding a white silk in his hand, squatting there holding a white silk in his hand and staring at the memorial tablet in a daze, suddenly his heart tightened, and he said, "No! He is going to hang himself!"

Having said that, Yuan Shang didn't care too much, stepped forward quickly, and kicked Xun Yu's ass.

Xun Yu was in a trance, and was suddenly kicked in the back of the mound by someone. Before he could react, he fell to the ground and fell to the ground. It was black and black.
"What a good man, who will live and die after a few setbacks, is simply a typical example of not seeking to make progress! Can death solve the problem? Can suicide solve the problem? Get up wherever you fall! You do this, it is simply A cowardly act!"

Yuan Shang's face was full of righteousness, and he scolded Xun Yu with an indisputable anger.
Xun Yu stood up, threw the dirt off his body, turned around with fiery eyes, and stared at Yuan Shang angrily.

"Who said the old man is going to die!" Xun Yu hissed through gritted teeth.

Yuan Shang sneered and said: "With a roll of white silk, it is clear that you are going to hang yourself, how dare you argue?"

Xun Yu's face turned pale, and he pointed to the scattered tablets on the ground and said, "I want to worship the ancestors! Worship the ancestors! Do you understand?"

"Why did the ancestors take the white silk? You treat me like an idiot!"

"You don't wrap white cloth and flowers on the ancestor worship tablet? Are you really stupid!"

Yuan Shang: "..."

At this moment, Sima Yi, who was behind Yuan Shang, rushed over and said in a low voice, "My lord, it seems that he is really offering sacrifices to his ancestors and has no intention of hanging himself."

"how do you know?"

"Have you ever seen someone hang himself from a beam and hang himself in the yard? There is no beam in this yard, so where did he hang himself?"

"........."

Facing Xun Yu's eyes that seemed capable of killing people, Yuan Shang's face turned hot and he was slightly embarrassed, but he quickly returned to normal.

As soon as he stepped forward to hold Xun Yu's hand, Yuan Shang said with a smile: "I heard that Xun Lingjun is offering sacrifices to the ancestors at home today, and Yuan is not talented, so I came to accompany Ling Jun to mourn the seniors of the Xun family. Wang Lingjun, don't blame... Hey, Mr. Xun, what happened to your mouth? It's red a lot, could it be that you miss your ancestors and get angry?"

Xun Yu gave Yuan Shang a hard look: "I didn't get angry, but you kicked me and fell to the ground!"

Yuan Shang was taken aback when he heard the words, then chuckled, and said: "Misunderstanding, what a big misunderstanding! It was just a moment of impatience. Xun Lingjun is a big-bellied person, so don't take it to heart."

Xun Yu turned his head, not bothering to look at him.

Yuan Shang chuckled, turned around and took a gift box from Sima Yi's hand, stretched out his hand and handed it to Xun Yu, saying, "When visiting, some gifts are not considered as respect, and I hope Duke Xun will accept them."

Xun Yu casually glanced at the gift box, his anger eased a little, and he said, "During this time, you have sent people to my house to send gold and silver every now and then, and silk and satin are constantly coming. Now that you are visiting, why bother?" Bring your own gift..."

Yuan Shang chuckled, and said, "One yard is worth one yard. Since you're here, there's a reason to hold it empty-handed."

Xun Yu nodded when he heard the words, and said, "Forget it, no matter what, you still have some etiquette of the fifth generation and three princes on you... What's in it?"

"Tea, good tea!"

"Oh, thank you for being considerate...Huh? Tea?...Wait a minute!"

Speaking of this, Xun Yu seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly raised his hand to open the gift box, carefully looked at the tea inside, took a deep breath, and almost took it out of breath!

"Why does this tea look so familiar?"

Yuan Shang was taken aback when he heard the words: "There is no human face on the tea leaves, how can you tell if they look familiar?"

"Nonsense!" Xun Yu stared, and said angrily: "This is the best tea you stole from me last time, you pretend I can't see it! The surname is Yuan, are you stupid as an old man? !"

"........."
