three kings

Chapter 22
Farewell to Liu Hua, Sun Can couldn't calm down for a long time. Liu Hua's enemy of ten thousand people gave him too much inspiration, thinking: "When a man is born in this world, he should be vigorous and his name will be left in history! Ban Chao wrote a pen for the country. The prince of tens of thousands of households is about to collapse today, and the foreign invaders are ready to move. Instead of studying hard behind closed doors, it is better to fight the enemy with a sword for the country and the people."

If Sun Can’s joining the army was just an idea, then joining the army at this moment is a belief, a firm belief.

After asking about the route, he walked towards Yunwu Mountain.Although there were still many doubts on Yunwu Mountain, he didn't have the energy to worry so much at the moment. His main purpose of going there was to see if the good horse following him was still there.

Nama and Sun Can have been together for three years, and they have a very good relationship

Walking to the foot of the mountain, a carriage flew past him.A vaguely familiar voice sounded from inside the car, and the man said: "Brother Wei, since that bastard and that grandson kissed me, why are you feeling sorry for that shameless woman! Why don't you be like me, Enjoy and enjoy."

After the man finished speaking, a few more female moans came from the car.

Sun Can frowned slightly, looked back with disdain, and continued to walk forward.

At the foot of Yunwu Mountain, the old man was still sitting by the side, looking a little helpless, as if he had a lot of things on his mind.

Sun Can greeted warmly, and walked to the place where the horses were bound.Perhaps because of the existence of the "monster" in Yunwu Mountain, this person was rare, and his horse was not taken away.

Seeing that the beloved horse was safe, my mood became smoother. The original unhappiness was swept away, and I stepped on the good horse and galloped back to Luoyang.

Luoyang was the most prosperous city in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and there were many pedestrians along the way.Worried about an accident, Sun Can got off his horse and walked slowly while looking at the crowd on the left and right.

Suddenly, several shouts came to my ears.

"Ziyu, Ziyu..."

Sun Can inquired and saw that it was Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.

Sun Can stepped forward and asked, "Ben Chu, Meng De, what's the matter?"

Cao Cao said: "Today is the first day of May. Our group is going to pay a visit to today's celebrity Xu Mingshi in Nanyang. You also go together. We will go to a restaurant to get together later. I still remember to apologize to you for the drink."

"Xu Mingshi? It's the Xu Shao who is known for being good at identifying people." Although Xu Shao is not a high-ranking official, he is known for being good at identifying people like his elder brother Xu Jing.They criticize the township party figures on the first day of every month.The words are realistic and pertinent, known as Yuedan Commentary in the world.Generally, the value of any person who has been judged and appreciated by them will be greatly increased. His name, Sun Can, has also been heard of.

Cao Cao nodded and said, "That's right! Today he happens to be in Luoyang, and we are going to visit him."

Sun Can also found it interesting, a little moved, and asked curiously: "How can we get to know Xu Shao?"

Yuan Shao laughed, and said to himself: "Xu Shao is a good man. Good luck, bad luck, good fortune, good fortune, good fortune, and misfortune. He is regarded as the best in the world. He was famous in the world ten years ago. Scholars strive to see him. He has a high status. Chong, of course ordinary people can meet him. However, he and my uncle are best friends, and he is visiting my uncle's house at the moment, if I introduce you, it will not be any problem at all."

Sun Can listened and smiled, but didn't answer.

Cao Cao urged: "Let's go quickly, don't waste time, let Xu Mingshi wait." He secretly whispered to Sun Can: "Zi Yu, don't take offense, everything is good at first, it's this arrogant virtue that sometimes makes you want to go. People can't stand it, just get used to it. If you want to stay in the officialdom, the first thing is to have a good relationship network, there is no reason to offend the Yuan family for such a trivial matter."

Cao Cao had good intentions, but he underestimated Sun Can. Sun Can had nothing else but a bigger heart than others.He didn't have that look to argue with Yuan Shao.

However, he was grateful for Cao Cao's reminder.

Arrived at Yuan Mansion.It was discovered that there were many talented scholars and low-level officials outside the mansion, and they were all waiting for Xu Shao's interview and evaluation.Some brought generous gifts and lined up for a long time, but still hadn't gotten their turn yet, and some insisted on introducing themselves to a butler-like figure, and handed over tips to go through the back door.

Sun Can secretly marveled, wondering what kind of ability this Xu Shao has, which made so many people wait for a comment.

Yuan Shao's uncle Yuan Kai received Sun Can and Cao Cao.

Yuan Kai said: "My good friend has a tight temper. If he is willing to see you, it is a good thing. If he doesn't want to see Kai, there is nothing he can do." These words pointed out that Xu Shao was not afraid of power and did not flatter him, which aroused Cao Cao's attention. Yu Suncan's curiosity.

Cao Cao said yes respectfully.

But Sun Can said with a smile: "Lord Yuan, don't worry, if the famous scholar Xu is right, you will have to experience the road ahead sooner or later, so don't be in a hurry. If what you say is not right, it doesn't matter if you don't listen."

Yuan Kai smiled and walked towards the side hall.

After a while, Yuan Kai brought good news, saying that Xu Shao was willing to meet them.

Cao Cao couldn't wait to walk in.

After a long time, he walked out with a big smile. It seems that he should have received a good evaluation.

Then, it was Sun Can's turn.

Sun Can walked into the side hall, and saw an old man with an ancient appearance and a thin figure sitting in meditation in the middle of the hall.He has a neat gray beard under his chin, and some white silk on his temples. He is handsome, but he looks a bit tall.

Sun Can stepped forward and saluted slightly.Although he doesn't like politeness, some etiquette is still necessary.

Holding a long ruler and white beard, Xu Shao asked loudly, "But Sun Can from Luoyang?"

Sun Can replied, "It's exactly Sun Can."

Xu Shao sat on the cloth cushion, pointed to the place in front of him, and said, "Sit down and talk." Seeing Sun Can sitting down, he asked, "What do you usually read? What's your favorite book?"

Sun Can said truthfully: "I don't understand the Four Books and the Five Classics, Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period understands a little, and I don't have my favorite book now." He answered directly, without any embarrassment or shyness.

Xu Shao showed a look of approval in surprise, and said with a smile: "Why do you say there is no such thing now?"

Sun Can said: "Because it hasn't appeared yet."

Xu Shao was asking, "Then what do you know?"

Sun Can replied: "Except for other martial arts, everything else is average."

Xu Shao frowned and looked at Sun Can for a while, then suddenly relaxed his brows, and said with a smile: "I have eight hearts to give to each other, please remember. If you have a big heart, you can tolerate all things in the world; if you have a humble heart, you can accept the goodness of the world; One can trust the friends of the world with one's heart; concentrate one's heart and govern the learning of the world; calm one's heart one can understand the principles of the world; persevere one's heart one can accomplish the world's career; calm one's heart one can discuss the affairs of the world; His heart can respond to changes in the world."

Sun Can listened to each word and felt that these words were profound and useful to him, so he memorized them one by one.

Xu Shao said solemnly: "You are born with a talent for sitting. You need to understand the meaning of this sitting. Remember, this statement cannot fall into the ears of others."

Sun Can said with a little respect: "Sun Can remembers it, and won't tell others about it. I will take my leave."

Xu Shao nodded acquiescingly, and thought to himself: "A superhero capable of literary and military skills, a broad-minded, eclectic, and talented person with unlimited potential, I don't know what will happen between them. The two geniuses came out together. , Is it good or bad for the people of the world?"

When Sun Can walked to the main hall, Yuan Kai was no longer there. Cao Cao warmly invited Yuan Shao and Sun Can to a restaurant for dinner.

Neither Cao Cao nor Sun Can mentioned Xu Shao's evaluation of him, nor did Yuan Shao ask.

In fact, Yuan Shao really wanted to know their comments, but because Xu Shao's comments on him were too harsh, he just said "learn to be a man and come back again", so he didn't want to mention this because he was afraid of Cao Cao and Sun Can. The comments are better than him, and the second is that I am afraid of losing face.

And Cao Cao and Sun Can also have reasons not to mention it.

A group of people walked towards the largest restaurant in Luoyang in a tacit understanding.

On the way, Sun Can was thinking: "What exactly does sitting mean?"
