However, Liu Ye's speech and behavior still reflect good self-cultivation.

Guo Jia noticed that his hands had a thick layer of calluses on the fingertips, tiger's mouth, etc., not like the hands of a scribe, but more like someone who wields a sword.

These days, the six arts of gentlemen are emphasized, and the children of the gentry who are both civil and military are the mainstream, but for civil servants who do not need to participate in the battle, the sword is a symbol of the status of the nobility and gentry, as well as an ornament, usually only for beauty, not practical.

However, Liu Ye's saber is definitely not that kind of flashy decoration. He wears an epee with ruby ​​inlaid on the scabbard. The simple and heavy long sword does not match his slightly gloomy temperament.

Liu Ye's attitude towards Guo Jia was a bit strange, and he maintained a strong sense of vigilance when they first met.Guo Jia chatted a few elegant and interesting things casually to guide him to relax his guard, but every time Liu Ye was about to reveal his own situation, he would suddenly stop and say some insignificant words to cover it.

Generally speaking, there are two main possibilities for this kind of reaction: [-]. Liu Ye is autistic, has some subtle barriers with the world, and refuses to communicate with others.Second, Liu Ye is the one who advises the little emperor Liu Xie. He has ghosts in his heart, and this kind of defense is only aimed at Guo Jia, the "sufferer".

In fact, it is not considered a sufferer, and Liu Xie's plan of divorce did not play any role.After all, Guo Jia is only a descendant of Yangdi Guo, and the family's support for him and his maintenance of the family are very limited. Compared with Xun Yu and Chen Qun, who are the direct descendants of the family's mission, Cao Cao trusts him more. Relatively free Guo Jia.

If it is the second type, there is no point in continuing to test each other.

Xi Yan asked Guo Jia to inquire about it, but the progress bar was always stuck at [-]%.Liu Ye was very wary, and after confirming that the people he was staring at were General Zuo Zhonglang and Zuo Junjun Xi Zhicai, he began to deliberately change the subject.

Guo Jia waved the folding fan casually, and the wind was blowing from the bottom of the fan: "Zi Yang (Liu Ye) is very courageous and wise. I wonder if he is willing to work for Duke Cao? Jiake can recommend it on his behalf." Working for Duke Cao is just an excuse, and I want it Put Brother Zi Yang under your nose to watch, so you can rest assured.

Liu Ye was secretly startled, could it be that Guo Jia had already guessed that it was he who set up a divorce plan for His Majesty?If so, Guo Jia's proposal cannot be rejected.Guo Jia is not a good stubble, and if he wants him to ignore the past, he can only obey the arrangement.

Liu Ye folded his arms subconsciously, pretending to be calm, and said: "Ye is talented and unlearned, if Guo Jijiu is willing to support him, I will be grateful."

Guo Jia: The posture of folding arms shows that Liu Ye lacks a sense of security.

Since he wanted to be a referrer, it was not too much to inquire about Liu Ye's previous experience, so someone asked questions bluntly.

First understand Liu Ye's family studies, what classics Pingzhi wrote (mainly study what Confucian classics).Also discussing the general trend of the world, the two sides had a very happy conversation and have begun to call each other Biaozi.

However, just when Liu Ye put down his guard and indulged in pointing Jiangshan, Guo Jia asked abruptly: "Is Xi Zhi good-looking?"

Liu Ye's face changed color in an instant, and Xi Zhicai pressed his hand on Guo Jia's shoulder, whispering, that kind of intimate interaction flashed before his eyes.The veins on his forehead twitched again, and he said in a low voice, "It's useless to have sex with him. I heard that Mr. Xi and Feng Xiao are from the same town. How has he been... all these years?"

The crowning ceremony is still going on. For the third time, the Jue Bianguan (a kind of ceremony crown) will be added. Xun Yu blessed: "With the righteousness of the year, with the order of the month. Xianjiaer is served. Brothers are here, so that Juede can be achieved, Huang Lao Boundless, celebrated by heaven."

Chen Qun went to propose a toast to Xi Fan. Although they didn't have a good relationship at the beginning, they were classmates in the academy after all.

Xi Yan smiled meaningfully: "If you don't go to the police, it turns out that Changwen will say things against your will."

Chen Qun was annoyed: "Following filial piety and despising etiquette, we should not govern and practice frugality."

Xi Yan drank the wine in his glass and said quietly: "Changwen (Chen Qun) really hates Fengxiao so much, or because he said things you dare not say, did things you dare not do, and lived a successful life." Does it look enviable to you?"

Chen Qun was speechless for a long time.

Not far away, Guo Jia was sitting in a casual posture, with his outer robe half-opened, the hem and sleeves hanging down naturally, with a kind of detached lightness and elegance. He was drinking with a young man in brocade clothes.

It is undeniable that Chen Qun really envied this prodigal son.

Suddenly, Chen Qun's eyes widened: He just picked up the flagon and drank wildly?What a system!Hmph, there is one more argument for the military commander's sacrifice of wine and frugality.

Not long after, Guo Jia weighed the jug, and he had swept away all the wine in Liu Ye's place. Holding a folding fan in one hand and a wine glass in the other, he came towards Xi Fan again.

Someone made up his mind: while Xun Yu couldn't get away from him, he secretly got drunk.

Xi Yan: "When Wen Ruo and Gong Da are all here, let's go to respect Mr. Zhongde (Cheng Yu) together."

Cheng Yu's life is not going well recently, he has a violent temper and has made too many enemies.In order to raise military rations for Cao Cao, he led troops to plunder the food stored in the homes of the people in Dong'a, which ruined his reputation.Interested people spread rumors that Cheng Yu added dried human meat to the military rations. The number of times he was impeached by hundreds of officials far exceeded Guo Jia, and he was far ahead, firmly ranking first.

Those people poured all kinds of dirty water on Cheng Yu's body. Last month, an official from Yushitai even heard about it, saying that he was rebellious.

When I was young, in Yingchuan Academy, the scene where Mr. Zhongde invited everyone to a banquet is still vivid in my memory.Chen Qun sighed, nodded and said, "It should."

Xi Fan was a little absent-minded and didn't speak again.

Hearing Guo Jia cough, Chen Qun said with a somber face: "For filial piety, moderate amount is enough, but it's not good to be disrespectful after drinking." , Even after drinking several glasses of wine, he became more and more personable, except that his robe was a little out of style, I really can't fault it.Wen Ruo said that he was drunk, what happened?

Guo Jia's light-colored lips curved slightly: "Even if you die tomorrow, drink this cup first."

Chen Qun snorted coldly and drank as much as he said.

Guo Jia saw Xun Yu from a distance, separated by hundreds of guests, and Xun Yu seemed to sense it, and looked over at the same time.Guo Jia immediately put down his glass and stopped drinking.

Cao Ang's coronation ceremony was only halfway through. Next, Cao Ang would use food and fine wine to worship his ancestors and meet his parents.

That's how you become an official adult.Cao Ang went back to the house again and put on a Xuanduan dress. When he came out again, he was an adult with various rights and obligations.Cao Ang saluted the guests, and all the guests had to return the salute.Except for the elders in the family, everyone else has to change their mouths and can no longer call him by his first name.

However, since Cao Ang was the eldest son of Cao Cao, all officials called him the eldest son tacitly.Only Guo Jia stretched out his sleeves, bowed meanly, and called him with a smile: "Zixiu."

Cao Ang, courtesy name Zixiu.From "Poems Three Hundred Daya King Wen", "Yu Xiu Jue De." The free translation is: to cultivate one's own virtues, inherit and carry forward the virtues of the ancestors.

By the way, Cao Cao's word Mengde is likely to be taken from "Xunzi Encouraging Learning", "Life is as it is, death is as it is, and the husband is called morality." The fate of Cao's father and son with "virtue" is quite deep.

The adult gift Guo Jia gave to Cao Ang was a Kunlun black jade inkstone, plus a sandalwood pendant. On the pendant, which was less than two inches long, one hundred "Fu" characters of various shapes were engraved.

In order to prepare this gift, Guo Jia filled two large boxes with the latest fried tea, fragrant ink, and dozens of kinds of flower paper produced by Qiwuge, and gave them to Hu Zhao and Zhong Yao, two famous calligraphers, respectively, and asked them to write. .

Cao Cao and Cao Ang are in the final stage of the crowning ceremony: reward Zheng Xuan and Zan Guan Xun Yu with sweet wine, silk, and deerskin, and send them out of the house.

After finally waiting for the show to end, Xi Yan secretly made a gesture to Xun Yu, which was regarded as a greeting, and couldn't wait to drag Guo Jia away from the crowd.They walked along Xuanwu Street for a short distance, made three turns and two turns, and came to a wine shop.

Sitting down in the private room on the second floor, Xi Yan was a little anxious: "Are Liu Ye and Liu Hua the same person?"

Guo Jia took the opportunity to blackmail: "A jar of white pear blossoms."

Xie Yan cast a sideways glance at him.

Guo Jia lowered his voice very low: "It's a person, and he misses you very much. It doesn't seem like he holds grudges, but he seems to be unable to let go." Forget who said similar words: the opposite of love is not hatred, but indifference, forget.

Sometimes, I still hate, maybe because I still have expectations, or even love, and I can't get what I want.

Xi Yan's Adam's apple moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't make a sound.

"Two leaves of duckweed return to the sea, where life does not meet again."

Ten years apart, the old friend who thought he would never meet again, the past that he never had to look back on, just came to him unexpectedly.

Xi Zhicai's surname was not Xi, but his surname was Yin, and he was born seven.Yin Qilang was born in a family that had been brilliant but then declined, so he was considered poor.

These days, ordinary people are called Qianshou.The so-called poor families are not poor families, but small and medium landlords. (During the Han, Wei, and Jin Dynasties, the poor family means that the family status is not comparable to that of the aristocratic family, and it is also the landlord class.)

Xi Zhicai's biological mother's surname is Xi. In my impression, she was a very weak woman with a bad birth. As a concubine, she was irritated everywhere at home.Even his childhood was extremely bleak, with few happy things.

At that time, although there was no turmoil as big as the Yellow Turban Uprising, small-scale rebellions in counties and counties occurred every year.Thousands of refugees break through the county seat, kill the county magistrate, and the leader dares to proclaim himself emperor, doesn't it sound a little funny?

Xi Zhicai's home disappeared in this ridiculous farce, and what's even more ridiculous: the rebels who rushed into the city just took away the property of Yin's family and injured his elder brother.They waited day and night, and finally saw the officers and soldiers who came to put down the rebellion, but the officers and soldiers killed his father, brother, and many innocent people, just to collect two thousand more heads and increase the credit for the rebellion.

Before the incident happened, Xi Zhicai and Xi's mother had long been driven to live in the servant's room, and they narrowly escaped unharmed.Mother and son depended on each other, wandering to Huainan, the opera mother was very good at needlework, she was taken in by a servant in Liu Pu's mansion of the great Han clan, and worked as an embroiderer in the embroidery workshop.

Xi Zhicai was handsome, intelligent, witty, literate and hyphenated. After several months of odd jobs, he was selected to receive some special training.
