Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle
Chapter 209: Recruiting Guo Jia (1)
Since Guo Jia came to Chang'an City, Man Chong would take a jar of wine from Liu Yu every day.
He brought the jar of wine back home, and the final outcome was similar to the first time, with most of the wine going into Guo Jia's stomach.
After drinking for seven days, Guo Jia finally decided to go and meet Liu Yu.
"Bo Ning, it's not a good idea to always drink Uncle Liu's wine. Come on, accompany me to meet Uncle Liu."
Man Chong looked up at the sky.
"Fengxiao, it's getting late. The emperor's uncle might have already gone to bed. Let's go early tomorrow morning."
Guo Jia stood up, walked out the door, and stared at the starry sky in a daze. After a long while, he slowly said, "Just send someone in to report. If he is indeed resting, we can go another day."
Seeing that Guo Jia insisted, Man Chong said nothing more.
The two of them walked out of the mansion and headed towards Liu Yu's residence.
It was already curfew time in Chang'an City, and the streets were quiet and empty.
If ordinary people appeared on the street at this time and were caught by patrolling soldiers, they would be punished immediately. But Man Chong was different. He was close to the emperor's uncle and was responsible for the public security of Chang'an City. Naturally, he was different from others.
The two mansions were not far from each other, and the two soon arrived at the gate of Liu Yu's mansion.
Guo Jia looked at the two red lanterns hanging high in front of the mansion gate, with an ambiguous smile on his face.
Liu Yu was sitting in the study, reclining on the couch, daydreaming quietly.
He had been in the era for quite some time, but he still hadn't gotten used to lying in bed to rest at the beginning of the night.
Can't sleep, can't sleep at all.
If it were in the previous life, the lights would have just come on at this time and the nightlife would have just begun.
Even if they don't want to go out to eat, drink and have fun, they just stay at home and look at their phones.
The habits formed over the years are not easily changed. When others are resting, Liu Yu will mostly sit in the study room and stare blankly.
Not only was he not sleepy, he became more and more energetic.
"I didn't realize it before, but now I know that I am also a night owl."
"My Lord, what is a night owl?"
Chen stood aside, very puzzled.
When he heard Chen Dao's voice, he remembered that Chen Dao had always been by his side. He smiled and explained: "This is the local dialect in my hometown, which means that I can stay up late."
After hearing Liu Yu's explanation, Chen Dao felt that he was weird, but he couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.
At this moment, the soldiers outside the gate reported: "Uncle, Man Boning and Guo Fengxiao are outside the palace asking to see you."
Liu Yu sat up suddenly to make sure he had not heard wrong.
After Guo Jia had been in Chang'an for so many days, his ultimate test officially began.
While Liu Yu ordered people to prepare the banquet, he began to take off his clothes.
When someone came, Liu Yu not only did not tidy up his clothes, but took them off instead.
This operation made Chen Dao, who was standing by, dumbfounded. What was the lord doing?
During this period, Liu Yu often mentioned Guo Fengxiao. In Chen Dao's mind, Guo Fengxiao's name almost made his ears calloused.
The counselor whom I have worked so hard to recruit is coming to visit my house. Shouldn't I tidy up my clothes and go to greet him?
In a blink of an eye, Liu Yu not only took off all his outer clothes, but even took off his shoes.
"My Lord, why are you doing this?"
Liu Yu stood barefoot in the study, looking at Chen Dao who was in amazement, with a cunning smile on his face.
"There's nothing we can do. These scholars are too cunning. If we want them to surrender smoothly, we have to resort to some unconventional means."
Chen Dao didn't quite understand. Liu Yu ruffled his hair again, took a look at himself in the bronze mirror, and was somewhat satisfied with the degree of the mess before quickly walking out.
When he was almost at the gate of the mansion, Liu Yu changed from walking to running, and his voice was rang out at this time.
"Open the door quickly and invite Bo Ning and Feng Xiao in."
As soon as the door opened, Liu Yu rushed to the gate of the mansion like a gust of wind.
Seeing a carefree young man standing next to Man Chong, he went straight up to him, held his hand, and muttered something.
"Fengxiao, Fengxiao, I've finally got you. With your help, there's no need to worry about the revival of the Han Dynasty."
Man Chong was a little confused. If he hadn't heard Liu Yu's voice, he wouldn't have known who was coming.
He was unkempt, unkempt, and didn't even have shoes on.
In Man Chong's impression, Liu Yu was handsome and elegant. He had never seen him like this before.
Liu Yu's situation gave Guo Jia a different feeling.
Judging from Liu Yu’s current condition, it is obvious that Liu Yu has already rested.
He must have heard that I was visiting, so he hurriedly got up, not caring about his image, and was so happy that he didn't even put on shoes and came out barefoot.
Thinking about the cold shoulder he had received in Yuan Shao's camp, he looked at the enthusiasm shown by Uncle Liu now.
Even Guo Jia, who was always unruly, was slightly moved.
"I have long heard that my uncle is a man of unparalleled kindness and righteousness, and he is courteous to the wise and humble. Seeing him today, I find that his reputation is indeed well-deserved. My dear uncle, please accept my greetings."
After saying this, he bowed down.
Judging from Guo Jia's reaction, it was obvious that his outfit had successfully left a good impression in Guo Jia's mind, otherwise why would the unruly Guo Fengxiao take the initiative to salute.
Liu Yu pulled Guo Jia and said with a smile: "Feng Xiao, there is no need to be so polite. The title of the emperor's uncle can only intimidate those mediocre people. How can a national hero like Feng Xiao accept these vulgar etiquette?"
After saying that, he pulled Guo Jia and walked into the mansion.
"Feng Xiao, Bo Ning, come in quickly. I heard that you two were coming, so I have already asked people to prepare a banquet. The three of us will not go home until we are drunk tonight."
When Guo Jia heard that the wine and food were ready, he immediately became excited.
The two of them hurried to the hall, and sure enough, the banquet was already prepared.
After sitting down for a while, Liu Yu smiled awkwardly.
"I had just laid down and was about to go to sleep, but when I heard Feng Xiao coming, I got excited and ran out, my clothes were disheveled, and I was rude."
Only then did Man Chong realize that Uncle Liu was in such a state because he was overly excited.
He recalled the scene when he first met Liu Yu and the expression Liu Yu showed at that time. He even thought that Uncle Liu was a homosexual.
Although not many people came to him for help, he clearly felt that it would be difficult to find many people in the world who valued talents as much as Liu Yu.
Seeing Liu Yu's enthusiasm, Guo Jia was deeply touched. When he was in Jizhou, he wanted to meet Yuan Shao, but he was not even allowed to enter Yuan's mansion.
Every time I went to ask for a meeting, the answer I got was the same: Yuan Benchu was busy with military and national affairs and had no time to see me today.
Later, with the introduction of Guo Tu, he finally met Yuan Shao.
Guo Jia saw that Yuan Shao was very graceful in his speech and was very friendly to him, which left a good impression on Guo Jia.
The Yuan family has three officials in four generations and a profound foundation. Yuan Benchu has always been known for his virtue. It seems that all this is true.
