The sound of cicadas chirps into my ears, and it is hot and dry in midsummer, and the heat is transpiring, and my body will be soaked in sweat after going out for a while.

Because Yuan Huan was in poor health and needed to recuperate, insects and birds were rarely heard in the house. Even if stray birds came in, they were quietly caught and let go before disturbing the owner.

Let the inedible ones go away, and the edible ones in the kitchen.

It's hot outside, and the mansion is clean and cool, but no matter how cool it is, it can't compare to a room with an ice basin to cool off. Since summer, Guo Jia is not too happy to run here, and even if he comes, he will come in the evening.

Their lord is weak, and the charcoal basin in the room was not removed until March. Every time they went there, they would sweat profusely from the heat, and they couldn't let the lord freeze because they were afraid of the heat, so he was witty every time. Change into light clothes before the next pass.

It's okay to do this in spring, but it's hot everywhere in summer, he just wants to stay in the room with the ice basin all day long and not go out, if it's not that the government office closes in the evening if there is no important business, he can even spread out in the council hall Mat to sleep.

The sun is westward, and the sun is no longer as hot as at noon. The lotus flowers in the pond in the backyard are curling up, and the breeze is blowing, and the fragrance is very pleasant.

Guo Guicai breathed a sigh of relief while drinking the ice-cold sherbet, looked at the lord who was dressed neatly behind the desk but couldn't see a trace of sweat, blinked and gulped down all the sherbet in the cup.

Comparing people to people, he was so pissed off, he even suspected that even Heat would not bother their lord because of his good looks, otherwise he wouldn't be able to see a trace of sweat.

Yuan Huan carefully read the things Guo Fengxiao sent, raised his eyes to see Guo Jia's appearance, couldn't help but said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, Mr. Guo is good at it."

"Isn't it? Going to one place and harming another place, there is really no one in the world who has such a great ability except him Guo Gongze." Guo Jia replied angrily, and asked the maid waiting outside to pour him another drink. Sherbet filled with ice cubes, turned around and continued, "Fortunately, it was someone else who harmed him this time, but by mistake, he helped the Lord a lot."

The emperor's star is weak, the princes are rising together, the strong cross states and counties, the weak slaughter counties, and states and counties attack each other, but no one dares to fight under the banner of fighting for territory openly.

Even when the Kwantung Alliance had just disbanded, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu brothers were fighting fiercely, and they still sent troops in the name of suppressing thieves. After all, the world is dominated by the big men. No matter how busy the court is now, they can't expose their thoughts to the bright side.

It doesn't matter if Chen Wang Liu Chong doesn't move, his movement will affect his whole body, and if the clan members of the Liu surname come to initiate this, the chaos that will follow will be different from before.

The old Liu family started to mobilize troops. If the imperial court wants to control it, it must first control the rebellious royal family members. If they can't even control the old Liu family's own people, what is there to do to calm the world?

That guy Guo Tu really dozed off and gave him a pillow, it was so considerate.

Yuan Huan put down the bamboo slips and said with a smile, "He urged Chen Wang to take Yuzhou. Chen Wang himself is not good at holding an official position. I'm afraid he is waiting for others to recommend him to be Yuzhou shepherd."

Liu Chong didn't have many useful people around him. In such a big Chen country, besides himself, there was nothing like Guo Tu's chancellor Luo Jun, but Luo Jun was a practical person, and flattery and flattery were no match for Guo Tu.

At that time, Guo Tu, not Luo Jun, would be most likely to be promoted. Although Luo Jun had a hard time presiding over the internal affairs, it would be even harder for Guo Tu to be with the prince to advise and advise.

"Come on, with his ability, any official given to him will harm the people." Guo Jia sneered, not hiding his disdain.

Having said that, when the battle in Yuzhou is over, it is time for Mr. Guo to get seriously ill or die. As early as when that guy instigated Yuan Shu to come to Yecheng secretly, Xun Gongda said that he could not stay, but Yuan Shu drove him back to his hometown , The man went round and round again to Chen Guo.

People can't find a reason to want to keep his life.

Guo Jia's eyes dimmed, and the corners of his lips slightly raised, and soon returned to normal, "Master, King Chen is nothing to be afraid of, but Wang Situ in Chang'an City seems to be unable to hold back. If King Chen dies on the battlefield, the court may use this Opportunities are hard for Yuan Gonglu, Liu Chong is a member of the royal family after all, even if he made a mistake, it can only be dealt with by the court Zongzheng, Yuan Gonggong is ruthless this time, and I am afraid that he will be criticized."

Yuan Huan shook his head with a smile, and said slowly, "Wang Yun might trip up Yuan Shu, but by then, he probably won't have the chance to cause trouble for others."

According to news from the capital, the imperial granary can’t last for a few months. Since the batch of grain was delivered last year, Jizhou has never sent anything to Chang’an. I care whether the imperial court can still issue a salary.

Sun Rui, a senior farmer, went to Qingzhou to be a state herdsman. The new senior farmer didn't realize how serious the situation was. Wan Dajun, once the source of food is cut off, sooner or later he will be stretched and unable to eat.

After summer comes autumn harvest, which is the favorite time for the surrounding foreigners to come to fight the autumn wind. The officers and soldiers under Huangfusong must not be paid. Otherwise, the Qiang Hu in Xiliang would take advantage of the chaos and plunder, and the court would suffer even greater losses.

The imperial court can't pay the salary, and there will be chaos at all levels of government offices. It's a blessing that Wang Situ won't make trouble for others, let alone make trouble for others.

There are many aristocratic families in Yuzhou. Before Yuan Shu sent his men to the counties of Yuzhou to serve as the prefects, the whole Yuzhou can be said to be a chaos without a leader.

That kid won Yuzhou and didn't care much about the life of the people under his rule. He just expanded his territory and challenged Yuan Shao. What does the life of the people have to do with him?

When the stupid younger brother first took over Yuzhou, he was unpopular, and could even be said to be full of dissatisfaction. If Xi Zhicai and Zhao Yun hadn't followed him back to Nanyang to help him manage the government affairs of Nanyang County and Yuzhou, he wouldn't have to wait for King Chen and Liu Chong to send troops. I have to be kicked out of Yuzhou.

This world is so chaotic, it is almost impossible to rule the officials immediately. Even a genius like Xi Zhicai can only cut through the chaos quickly, and kill the fatuous officials who oppress the people in the counties and counties. Relegation, killing the chickens to scare the rest of the people, and then re-appointing smart and capable people to serve as parent officials in various places, so that even if the administration of officials cannot be clear, the situation can be stabilized in a short time.

There is no state herdsman in Yuzhou, so it can only do this for the time being. On the other hand, in Jizhou, the people of Jizhou are very protective of the government. Xun Yu, Xun You and others will not be as cautious as Xi Zhicai.

Yuan Shu's prefect was useless, so he could only work hard for his subordinates. If his subordinates were unreliable, it would be a real mess.

Zhicai was alone, and it was really hard work to deal with Yuan Shu at the top and appease the people at the bottom.

Fortunately, the hard times will come to an end soon. When Liu Chong, the thorny head, is resolved and the whole Yuzhou is under his control, then he will find a way to send a suitable person to Yuzhou to be the shepherd of the state. Haunting.

After all, there is still not enough talent.

Yuan Huan sighed quietly, took a sip of tea to calm himself down and don't be impatient, he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, he always came when he should come, and he couldn't help if he shouldn't come no matter how anxious he was.

"Guo Gong is by the side of King Chen, and King Chen's defeat was only a moment. Feng Xiao has been focusing more on Xuzhou recently. Marquis Wucheng asked Bo Fu and Gong Jin to take a detour to Xuzhou. There are not many generals there, but Tao Qian's Danyang soldiers Being brave and good at fighting should not be underestimated, don't let those two little ones be bullied outside."

At that time, he just told the two younger ones that if they had any difficulties, they could send someone to Xuzhou to find Mi Zhu and Lu Su. It was uncertain whether Mi Zhu would help them, but Lu Su would be fine.

As evidenced by history books, the relationship between the few people was very strong after they met. With the level of local tyrants in the Linhuai Lu family, they can help them settle any problems with money.

He asked Sun Ce and Zhou Yu to go back to Jiangdong. He didn't want them to do any big things. It would be great if they could muddy the water.

Going to Xuzhou when you have difficulties, and going to Xuzhou by detour, it sounds like you know it's not the same thing at all, and I don't know what Wu Chenghou said to them, why did the two boys go to find Tao Qian first? ?

Guo Jia shook his head with a smile, "My lord, don't worry, they are the only ones who bully others, and no one bullies them."

Sun Bofu is quite like his father, even Lu Fengxian is not afraid of recklessness, knowing that he can't beat him, he goes up to him to fight, but his tenacity is a headache, his friend Zhou Gongjin looks gentle and quiet Jing, Nei Li is not a simple person either.

Tao Qian is from Danyang, Zhou Yu is from Lujiang, both of them are in Yangzhou, Tao Gongzu is old and frail, Zhou Gongjin is in the prime of life, and he has a capable uncle who is an official in Yangzhou, it is really uncertain who will bully whom.

Just wait and see, Tao Qian might be tossed into what kind of appearance by the two of them.

Yuan Huan pondered for a moment, thinking of the style of the two people in history who tied them to their side and forced them to work for them, and realized that his worry was unnecessary.

Guo Jia covered his face and yawned, and said almost what he wanted to say. After sitting with his head empty for a while, he finally remembered that there was one thing he missed, "My lord, Yecheng Academy has all the preparations, just waiting for your choice." Let’s go there in person on a good day, and celebrities and Confucians can go there to give lectures and lead students.”

Yuan Huanning thought for a while, "It will be half a month later."

The academy has been in preparation for more than half a year, and finally it can be put into use. The dean is Zheng Xuan, a great scholar who is full of peaches and plums.

Guo Jia nodded, and had no problem with this arrangement at all. Anyway, it will be hot any day, and it doesn't make any difference whether it is early or late.

The two discussed a few more words, seeing the sky darkening outside, Guo Guicai still had no intention of leaving, he has stayed until this time, does the lord not care about food?

Yuan Huan scolded with a smile, packed up the bamboo slips and paper on the desk, and took the guy with a thicker skin than the city wall to eat.

I don't know why this guy likes Cengfan so much. Obviously, the food at his own house is no different from that here, but he just doesn't want to go back to eat.

Could it be that because Yi'er didn't go home, the widowed old father couldn't bear the loneliness, so he was thinking all the time and just wanted to find a meal friend?

Tsk, it's pitiful to be an empty nester at such a young age.

Guo Jia paced behind their lord, unable to see the expression of the person in front of him, and didn't know what he was thinking. From one bottle per day to one pot per day.

He has devoted himself to the master's great cause these days. Seeing that he has done so much work, the master can no longer abuse him.

The two went to the hall and sat down. Guo Gui then tapped on the food table with his fingertips, speaking righteously for his own benefit.

Yuan Huan chuckled and looked over lightly, "If Feng Xiao can keep up with the training of recruits in the barracks, I will grant your wish."

"Training?" Guo Jia was startled and subconsciously leaned back. There was no one else in the room, and he didn't bother to pay attention to his image. After sitting back, he immediately said, "My lord's words are wrong. Jia is a civil servant. The distinction between civil servants and generals is like a natural moat. It is not appropriate for a weak literati like Jia to go to the barracks, if Jia is so talented, how can the recruits in the army withstand such a blow?"

No way, no matter how you think about it.

Is it okay if he doesn't drink this wine? The lord is also true. Why do you want to write crooked ideas to toss people? It's really not prudent.

Yuan Huan just smiled and said nothing, just as the maid was bringing the food, so he said thoughtfully, "Pour a glass of sherbet for Guo Jijiu, don't let it be cold, he has already drank a lot of cold ones today, and if he drinks it again, he will be hurt." catch a cold."

Guo Jia:? ? ?

No, why is there no more sherbet?

What's wrong with the cold drink on this hot day? The lord can't drink it himself and forces others to join him. Is this reasonable?

Guo Fengxiao looked at the person in the seat full of anger, he was obviously a delicate and beautiful human immortal, but in his eyes, he looked a little hideous, with such a "vicious" heart, he was indeed non-toxic and not a husband!

angry!

The original boss smiled and watched him bite the soft steamed bun viciously, as if biting the steamed bun like someone who wouldn't let him drink alcohol or cold juice, and couldn't help feeling happier.

The sage said it well, you can double your happiness by building your own happiness on the pain of others. Looking at it now, the sage does not deceive me.

As for which saint said these words, of course it is the former saint who has experienced the impact of the Internet in later generations.

As the sun set, the heat dissipated, the state pasture mansion was shaded by flowers and plants, and the cool breeze blowing gently on the body was very comfortable.

The rainy season came unexpectedly. It was sunny a few days ago, but suddenly it began to rain. The continuous rain fell on the roof, and the eaves looked like broken beads.

It rained heavily for several days, and when Yuan Huan was about to postpone going to Yecheng Academy, the weather finally cleared up.

The weather was sunny after the rain, and there was a fresh smell in the air. Lu Bu came to the door of their lord early in the morning, guessing that it was a bit early, so he picked a grass stalk and put it in his mouth.

The heavens are beautiful, knowing that their lord has something to do, even the rain that has been raining for many days stopped before the lord went out. I don't know how the water on the road is, so don't delay the carriage.

General Lu stayed in Yecheng these days and didn't go out. He was really a little bored and panicked. Fortunately, he knew his own ability and knew that he must be indispensable in the war. Now that Jizhou has just been pacified, he, the number one general in the world, can't run around. We must stay in Jizhou to suppress Xiaoxiao.

For example, Liu Chong, the King of Chen in Yuzhou, is not worthy of his attack on such a small land. Even Sun Wentai's soldiers and horses don't need to be moved, and that kid Zhao Zilong can put down the chaos.

There will be more wars in the future. He is the lord's confidant and beloved general, so he doesn't have to worry about being useless. Anyway, he is indispensable by the lord's side. Let others save those small things for military merit.

After all, although he is very powerful, it is not good for others to have no chance to stand out. As a qualified military commander, he should be so worry-free and never cause trouble for the lord.

No, he is the one who can follow the lord when he goes out.

General Lu Da was thinking happily, feeling bright and happy.

Yuan Huan came out of the room and felt helpless when he saw the colorful pheasant feathers dangling outside, "Why didn't Fengxian come in?"

Lu Bu spat out the straw and stood up straight, walked over and grinned happily, "It's still early, don't dare disturb the Lord's rest."

"I have business to do today, and it's getting late. The distance from here to the academy is not short, and it's too late to go." Yuan Huan asked someone to prepare meals, and said as he walked, "Bong Xian can come in and sit down , although it is cool outside, there is no reason for you to stand outside and wait."

General Lu himself felt nothing, but seeing their lord's serious order, he still complied. Of course, it's hard to say whether he will continue to wait outside next time.

Not long after, the well-dressed little guy Yuan Jing also ran over.

He also has a part to go to Yecheng Academy today. Zheng Xuan only wants to teach in the academy, and has no intention of coming to the mansion to be a teacher. Yuan Huan keeps him as the dean of the academy. Let Yuan Jing go to the academy to study together.

The little guy is very smart, and now he can start studying formally. The teachers in the academy are good enough, and it will be good for him to deal with more people. He has been exposed to all kinds of things in the world since he was a child, and he will not be easily deceived by others when he grows up.

In any case, he still has to rely on him to inherit the family business in the future. It is better to cultivate it carefully from a young age than to struggle to get it back when it grows crooked later.

Seeing the long-lost General Lu, the little guy Yuan Jing's eyes lit up. After greeting his father, he immediately moved to Lu Bu. He looked at the purple gold crown on his head with bright eyes, happily grabbed the tip of his beard, and smiled. Showing little canine teeth.

Lu Bu is not restrained in front of the little guy, the little boy's wooden weapon rack has eighteen kinds of weapons, and several of them are learned how to play with General Lu Da.

The child hadn't started to practice martial arts seriously yet, Yuan Huan only found him a martial arts master to take him to exercise, and he only played with Sun Yi and the others with wooden weapons on weekdays, and waving them randomly was not considered a move.

For Yuan Jing, Master Wu is a master of martial arts, and great friends are great friends, where a master teaches with the prestige of a great general.

The children of the surrounding Sun family and the Cao family can't run too far. Their fathers are not in Yecheng, and they all have the ambition to fight in the battlefield. They like to pester the generals who live in the city when they have nothing to do.

Cao Ang is very courageous and dares to stop anyone he sees. Under his leadership, General Lu Fengxian seems to be a new generation of child king.

That is to say, he didn't think a group of children were making a fuss, and they were clearly murderous in the barracks. The soldiers didn't even dare to move when they saw him. Who would have thought that he would play with these children in private.

Seeing them having fun, Yuan Huan suddenly thought of something. Lu Bu is in his prime, and his home is not empty if he has a wife and a daughter, but there are quite a few other people around him who are single.

He has the little guy Yuan Jing by his side now, even if there is a problem with not having a mistress in the house, he doesn't have to remarry. Unless the people around him want to take a shortcut and put people in the lord's backyard, otherwise, they will rarely intervene in order to avoid suspicion Backyard business.

No one around him has mentioned it all the time, and he has completely forgotten about it. Thinking about it now, it seems that there are too many young people under his command who need to solve major marriage matters.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu don't have to worry, even if they don't have any idea themselves, and their elders, but these other people seem to need him to intervene.

Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun...

How can a good young man be alone without a companion?
