"Second Young Master, there is a secret letter from the master." An ordinary-looking messenger knocked on the door of Yuan Xi's residence one night, and delivered a message from Yecheng, Hebei.After breaking the wax paint on it, I saw familiar handwriting.Yuan Xi's heart sank quickly. That night, the light in his room was on all night.

Yuan Xianyi's vacation is over.

The next day, Sima Yi followed his usual schedule and got up at dawn. There was no doubt that his neighbor was still silent.Suddenly, he felt something, and went out to open the door in the cold air of two or nine days. Not surprisingly, he saw Yuan Xi standing outside the door with panda eyes on his face. Although he still wanted to put on a hearty expression, But the black background behind it is almost thick enough to be concrete.Sima Yi asked the book boy to lead him to the study, and brought him a bosom stove with a mouthful of hot soup, and then he was going to see what caused this man to have a convulsion early in the morning.

"Xianyi, you haven't slept all night. You must have something to worry about. Although I'm not talented, I'd like to do my best to make you and I acquainted." Sima Yi has seen Yuan Xi in the bloody storm, and knows that in the sunshine The haze behind the smiling face, but this is the first time that Yuan Xi has shown the most real side of his emotions in front of him.Yuan Xi and him are both the second sons in the family, and there are some similarities in the embarrassment of the situation, which is the reason why the two are close.As the second son of the family, their status is valuable, but they do not need to be heirs. At the same time, the family's expectations and resources will not be tilted towards them. When they become adults, they must rely on their own abilities to establish themselves.Speaking of them, Cao Pi is similar to them, but since his mother is a kabuki, if the mother does not support her, according to the principle that a son is more valuable than a mother, these two will be disdainful to Cao Pi.

Time rewinds a little bit to the previous point.

"Isn't the second son of the Sima family a classmate of yours? You might as well ask his elder brother what he thinks of the lord?" Guo Jia said this to the two cats in the Green Wave Corridor yesterday, but the old cat's reaction was to reply on the spot. He rolled his eyes.Not to mention the real relationship between Sima Yi and his elder brother, no matter how stupid, a subordinate would not criticize his superior in front of an outsider.

"Guo Fengxiao, do you think Sima Lang is so stupid that he speaks ill of Boss Cao in front of me? Or is it because Sima Yi has such a low IQ that he passes this on to me?" Becoming Cao Cao's aide is certainly a shortcut to promotion , but for the current old cats and sugar cats, this is just a temporary residence. They are more concerned about the missed midterm and final exams than what kind of promotion they can get by Cao Cao's side.As long as there is a suitable location to ensure that the current standard of living is not affected, and it will not be troubled by others.Compared with many strategists, Lao Mao is more inclined to play soy sauce among all living beings. "Don't worry, you have your share in all our properties, and if there is anything, you will be aware of it..." Lao Mao dispelled Guo Jia's doubts in an open and honest manner.

Just as the old cat guessed, or guessed from history, at this moment, what people respected at the moment was not King Sima Xuan who had not ascended the throne, but Sima Lang, the eldest son of the Sima family.As the second son, his father's expectation of him is nothing more than to be successful, and he doesn't need to be too good. Being a good assistant to his elder brother is the key to the prosperity and stability of the family.As for why the Sima family was led by him later, it is estimated that Sima Lang's early death was also one of the important reasons.

"Zhongda, do you know? My father sent me a letter asking me to go home for the New Year." Facing such information, Sima Yi raised his eyebrows calmly. Statement from one perspective, "Wouldn't that be nice?"

"Yeah, of course it couldn't be better." Although he said so, the smile on Yuan Xi's face gave people a great sense of disobedience, as if something wanted to break free. "In the coming year, I will be the governor of Youzhou." In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the rank of governor was two thousand stones, and he was actually the chief official of a state's military administration and the superior of the prefect, and the two-level state and county system was formed accordingly.The position is second only to the state herdsman. In layman's terms, it means that (sorry, the style of painting suddenly collapsed) in the year of being weak, the herdsman side, I have to say, this is only the Yuan family with four generations and three fathers. One must know that Yuan Shu is nothing more than Feng Zhouyu, the head of the nest.

But such an arrangement also means that after Yuan Xi returns to his hometown for the New Year (why is this thick flag swollen), he will not return to Yingchuan Academy next year. "Then I should congratulate you." That's what Sima Yi said, but Sima Yi's expression didn't say that. Although he said that he was close, but as long as he has a basic understanding of today's political geography, he can understand that this is definitely not a good job. The Liaodong region is under the control of Gongsun Zan. Unless the Yuan family completely regains Liaodong and solves Wuhuan, which has become a confidant, it will be just like Liu Bei, the Yuzhou shepherd, who is just a distant leader.Besides, in comparison, even Yuan Shao's nephew Gao Gan (with such an aloof name) was named the governor of Bingzhou. Judging from the division of the territory, Yuan Xi's status in his father's heart is really not that high go. "It's just that Youzhou is a place of bitter cold in the extreme north. Take care of yourself." If you look at the current geographical concept, Youzhou is located in the northern part of Hebei and the southern part of Liaoning. Xi has allocated a good site at the root of the imperial city. You must know that Beijing, as the imperial capital of pure Chinese civilization, is actually only in the Ming Dynasty strictly speaking, and the reason is not only Zhu Di's headquarters, but also the fact that "the emperor guards the gate of the country" inside.Compared with Luoyang, the hinterland of the Central Plains, Youzhou is not a good place.However, Sima Yi knew that it was unnecessary for Yuan Xi to sympathize with such emotions.Only at this time, he would feel that although his own father was a little more rigid and more disciplined, he would never cheat his son like this.

As one of Yuan Shao's current main enemies, Yuan Xi naturally knows what is going on in Gongsun Zan's territory, and it is precisely because he has no great interest in Sima Yi and has some similarities, it is rare that he There was a bit of helplessness in front of Sima Yi.All of this is the decision of General Yuan Shao, that is, his father. He is helpless as a son. Besides, his mother died young, and his stepmother Liu is quite capable. His father remembers that it is a great luck to leave a family property for himself. up.If it really doesn't work, just keep the mountains high and the waters far away, and stay away from right and wrong. In this troubled world, mastering military power is the kingly way. "Not only that, but when I went back this time, my father also talked about a marriage for me."

"Hebei Zhen family, after Taibao Zhenhan, is there a Luo or Mi word in her boudoir name?" Almost subconsciously, Sima Yi blurted out, and there was no uncertainty at all, but it felt like the long-standing speculation had finally come true.After all, compared with his innocent and innocent companion, every word of the old cat has more than one meaning after careful consideration.It can be said that everyone has the heart of gossip, even King Sima Xuan is no exception.

This time it was Yuan Xi's turn to be restless. The so-called girl's boudoir name, if it wasn't for a special situation like Cai Yan, was generally unknown to others, especially when the family had many children.For example, his father told him in the letter that Zhen Mi's family was ranked seventh. In theory, even if she had a good reputation, she would be said to be Qiniang of the Zhen family, not Zhen Mi. "How did you know?" He didn't think Sima Yi was so boring as to investigate the name of a Shang Cailing's daughter.

Sima Yi felt that he should start mourning for his good friend. It seemed that the hostility of the old cat who mentioned the impostor Concubine Mi before for no reason was not aimless, but meant.When Shu Da came, he already knew about Yuan Shao's marriage arrangements for Xian Yi who was far away in Hebei?Unexpectedly, the news came faster than the news from my family, "If there is no accident, Qiqing already knew about this matter, as for whether he told Li Taibai (does anyone still remember? This is Tangmao's vest), then I don't know But more importantly, Xian Yi, what are you going to do?" Although it is possible to take Zhen Mi as his wife and Tang Mao as his concubine (the sound is the same hard, note 1), but as a person of Lao Mao, hehe, he can consider Out of the morality of a friend, I first prepare a good birthday material (coffin) for Xian Yi.Maybe you can also say something like "live great, die glorious" in the eulogy.

Although it is said that Liu Yong's origin is a mystery now, and he does not have a prominent family, it is impossible to change the situation in a short time, but it is not difficult for a person like Sima Yi who is as observant as Sima Yi to learn from the words he published in the Green Wave Gallery. The contempt revealed in it.It's not because of his youthful vigor, but because of his high-level vision, he can smell the breath of the same kind. Liu Yong has his own unique views on the current situation, but he doesn't reveal it to others.

Yuan Xi stretched out his hand, covered his eyes, and took a deep breath, "So that's the case, no wonder..." He always believed that the old cat's hostility towards him was due to childish possessive desire, or other superficial reasons, because from the appearance From the looks of it, Lao Mao, who was only in the prime of his life, was obviously a young boy. In his understanding, Tang Mao was Lao Mao's cousin or something, so it was just a child's mentality that he didn't want to be snatched away as a playmate. ——Although I said that, I can't go wrong there.By now, he finally understood why the old cat always showed disapproval of the relationship between the two of them. "I……"

Unlike Yuan Xi who is facing the entanglement of life choices, Lao Mao and Tang Mao are now also facing their last and most important final exam in this era.That is to face the most powerful man in the entire Central Plains - Cao Cao in the next 20 years.It was Guo Jia who arranged the meeting for them, and it was defined as a private meeting, so there was no need to wear official clothes.However, in order to reduce their pressure, or out of some unknown evil taste, Guo Jia did not mention to them that this was the first time he recommended talents after joining Cao Cao's command, because this is really not his profession. So it was inevitable that Boss Cao would look sideways.

As for Boss Cao, he was almost put under a microscope in later generations and studied repeatedly. On the one hand, in this era of judging people by their virtues, he can put forward the slogan of meritocracy, and he has a cross-generational vision. , He also has the generosity to accept advice.But at the same time, he also showed a suspicious and cruel side. For example, those who have no status in the staff are sometimes drawn, and sometimes they are so lustful that they are so brainless that they play with their son to death.Therefore, after discussing with Tang Mao, the old cat is still more inclined to cherish life and stay away from Cao Cao.It's just that, in order not to be disturbed by Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty who seems to be more convulsive, he still properly demonstrated the skill of a technical geek.After all, before the incident of Yidaizhao broke out, there was already an undercurrent between Han Xiandi and Boss Cao, and they only needed to be wise and protect themselves.

Cao Cao's Sikong Mansion is located on the edge of Zhuque Street on Xudu Gandao. Speaking of it, it was originally Cao Cao's mansion, and the temporary palace was built after welcoming Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and Zhuque Street was renamed after that.Occasionally, they would pass by the gate of Sikong Mansion, but since the main entrance was guarded by guards, they were afraid of arousing suspicion. Lao Mao and Tang Mao had never studied it carefully before, or watched it nearby. In-depth research on Cao Cao's hometown 800 years ago is much more interesting than the unknown Cao Cao's tomb on TV.

The wine and meat of the wealthy family stinks, and the road is full of frozen bones. Here, lacquer is used for coloring, and the main body is rammed earth and wooden beams. Since Cao Cao's purse is not rich at this time, everything is kept simple.Since following Guo Jia into the door, the servants saw less than ten people in total, all wearing coarse cloth, which was in stark contrast to yesterday's palace maids and servants who all wore silk and satin, plus incense.

"Guo Jijiu~" A coquettish voice stopped Guo Jia, and turned back in a low voice. If an ordinary man listened to it, most of his bones would be brittle, but Tangmao, who was following Guo Jia, clearly sensed that he was called. That one shuddered, almost bristling.The old cat on the side couldn't help but frowned slightly. The voice was too frivolous. Is it okay to allow her to think about the staff in the special service industry?

Note 1: Concubine Marriage: In the Zhou Dynasty, when a feudal lord married a woman from a country, the woman must marry along with her nephew (brother's daughter) and concubine (sister), and at the same time, one must be invited from each of the other two countries with the same surname as the woman. For the dowry of women, they are also followed by their nephews and younger sisters. There are nine people in total. Only the wife is the main wife, and the rest are noble concubines.媵, send each other off, extended to refer to dowry.If the princes and their main wives die or are divorced, they cannot remarry. They should be replaced by concubines in turn. This system is called concubine or concubine marriage system.There are literature records that noble women in the Han Dynasty did not shy away from being concubine. On the contrary, for powerful families, such as the Yuan family, many people actually squeezed their heads to think about this position.

The author has something to say: This volume has entered the countdown to completion.After a while, because the rhythm of going crazy at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, it is estimated that February will be slightly better.Suddenly, I realized that this volume reflected what would happen in certain universities, such as bad tutors, capable tutors, the pressure of graduation and so on.For Yuan Xi, she is in such a period of confusion, but for Tangmao, she may not be able to understand such pressure at present.The old cat stands on the outside, so he can stay out of the world, and Sima Yi hides behind the scenes, so he may not be without the heart of sorrow for the death of the rabbit.

It is said that technical nerds are the current relatively safe way of self-preservation. This is D’s recent experience in watching dramas. Girls who are still studying should pay more attention. Only those who have the ability and technology at hand will not find you. trouble.If you have time, everyone should really go and read the vernacular version of "Zi Zhi Tong Jian", which is much better than the so-called thick black of later generations.
