Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Xun Yu’s reaction made Cao Cao very painful. He always thought that the two of them were a model of the relationship between a monarch and his minister.

The two once swore together to achieve great things.

But now that their careers have not yet succeeded, the two have to go their separate ways.

Xun Yu was a Confucian idealist. No matter whether he joined Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, he had a standard in his mind, which was to support the Han Dynasty.

The motivation behind everything he did was to support the Han Dynasty.

The Han Dynasty has lasted for four hundred years and has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

During the four hundred years, the Han Dynasty left behind too many amazing things.

These styles still shine brightly even now.

Xun Yu bowed deeply to Cao Cao and said slowly: "Since Lady Cao has made up her mind, if Lord Cao does not want to kill me, please let me go."

Cao Cao felt lost. The change in Xun Yu's address had already shown his attitude. If Cao Cao still wanted to concentrate on achieving something, Xun Yu would definitely leave.

Thinking of the friendship and support they had shown each other during this period, Cao Cao choked up and said, "Wen Ruo, you..."

Xun Yu bowed slowly, then turned and left.

Walking slowly forward along the bluestone path in the mansion, my feet made a crackling sound as they stepped on the snow.

The cool breeze blew on Xun Yu's dry face, making it feel a little cold. He walked forward slowly, feeling as if his heart was inexplicably blocked and uncomfortable. When he walked out of the mansion, the corners of his eyes were slightly moist.

Xi Zhicai and Cheng Yu sensed the strange atmosphere just now and followed Cao Cao's order to leave the inner hall, but they did not go far. They saw Xun Yu slowly moving forward from afar and instantly had a bad premonition in their hearts.

The two men walked back into the inner hall and saw Cao Cao slumped on the ground.

Cheng Yu stepped forward to help Cao Cao up and asked, "My lord, you must not be so depressed before you accomplish your great mission."

"Wenruo is leaving." Cao Cao said these four words with difficulty.

Cheng Yu was shocked and advised: "Xun Wenruo is a great talent in the world. Don't let him leave. If he can't be used by the lord, you can kill him."

Killing Xun Yu, Cao Cao was slightly startled, and instantly became a little sober. Xun Yu was his most trusted minister, and Cao Cao had never thought of killing him, but now he had to face this problem.

Before Cao Cao gave an answer, Xi Zhicai said, "My lord, killing Wen Ruo is absolutely unacceptable. Not to mention that Wen Ruo has done his best for you, but considering the influence of the Xun family in the Yingchuan family, my lord cannot do it.

"Since you want to plan for great things, you must gather the best talents in the world. If you kill Wen Ruo, it will surely disappoint the scholars in the world. Killing one person and destroying the hope of the world is not what a wise ruler does."

Cao Cao was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Zhicai's words make sense. Zhicai and Wenruo are close friends. Please persuade Wenruo on my behalf to see if he can change his mind. If Wenruo has made up his mind, I will give him a gift of ten thousand gold coins, which will be regarded as fulfilling the loyalty between the monarch and his subjects."

Xi Zhicai took the order and left. He did not go directly to Xun Yu's mansion, but went out of the city directly and got off the carriage at a pavilion outside the city gate.

He ordered the people around him to start making a fire and cooking wine in the pavilion.

On a snowy day, braving the cold wind, coming to the pavilion to cook wine is a very strange act no matter what.

The servant knew Xi Zhicai's temper and dared not say much. He lit a fire and boiled wine. After a while, the aroma of wine wafted out.

Xi Zhicai did not sit down to drink, but stood in a corner of the pavilion, looking at the official road, stunned and speechless.

The snow fell heavier and heavier, and a lot of white snow fell on Xi Zhicai, but he remained unmoved, like a sculpture.

The servants were very surprised. Looking at Xi Zhicai's appearance, it was obvious that he was waiting for someone. Who would go out in such bad weather in the wind and snow?

Just as everyone was puzzled, a convoy slowly drove over from a distance. It was called a convoy, but it only had a few horse-drawn carriages.

Xi Zhicai shook off the snow on his body, took two steps forward, and said, "It's cold, Wen Ruo, have a cup of hot wine before you go."

The convoy, which was moving forward quickly, stopped suddenly when they heard the sound. Xun Yu got off the carriage, came to Xi Zhicai, saluted and said, "Zhicai, the weather is cold, and I am very grateful for your help in seeing me off."

Xi Zhicai smiled and said, "Wen Ruo, you are my best friend. If you hadn't introduced me to the lord, I would probably still be trapped in the countryside, doing nothing, and there would be no achievements today."

Xun Yu shook his head and said, "Zhicai is a man of extraordinary knowledge and strategy. He must be a man of extraordinary ability. Even without my recommendation, how could he be buried with his ability?"

After Xun Yu finished speaking, he sighed slightly and said, "Looking at Cao Gong's performance now, I don't know whether it was right or wrong to recommend you to come here?"

Xi Zhicai smiled faintly and said, "Wen Ruo, I have different ideas from you. My lord has great ambitions, so I have the opportunity to display my talents.

In my opinion, the reason why the Han Dynasty came to this point was not entirely due to the emperor’s stupidity and the eunuchs’ monopoly of power, but mainly due to the corruption of the system.

The Han Dynasty is like a tree that is hundreds of years old. It seems to be still standing there, but in fact it has already become a hollow tree.

Even if Uncle Liu has the ability to keep a tree like this from falling down, how many years can it live if the hole inside is not changed?

If we want the people to have a safe place to live, we must uproot this tree and plant a new one. Only in this way can we truly have a new life.”

“What Zhicai said may make sense, but I don’t think the tree has rotted. Since it has been standing on this land for four hundred years, it has completely adapted to this land.

The reason why it is in this state now is because there are spots on the tree. As long as these spots are removed, the tree will be rejuvenated.

This life will be very dazzling, just like the light that has burst out in the past four hundred years, dazzling and dazzling, and you can’t look directly at it. "

Two theories, two viewpoints, neither can convince the other. As for right or wrong, only time can verify.

Both of them are the world's top wise men, so they naturally understand each other's beliefs.

Xi Zhicai smiled faintly, raised a glass of wine and said: "Wen Ruo, after we say goodbye today, I don't know when we will meet again. Come, I will toast you a glass."

Xun Yu picked up a glass of wine and they both drank.

Xi Zhicai continued to ask: "Wen Ruo is going to seek refuge with Uncle Liu?"

"Exactly."

"At this moment, besides my Lord, only Uncle Liu is qualified to be your Lord.

My lord ordered me to bring ten thousand gold coins to Wen Ruo. Would Wen Ruo accept it?"

The cold wind blew, and a gust of winter snow came into the pavilion. Xi Zhicai looked at his best friend with a half-smile.

Xun Yu's eyes were clear, and he sighed slightly, "Zhicai, now there is chaos and disorder, and I am going on the road with millions of gold, which is a way to bring disaster.

Now I am still in Yanzhou. If Cao Gong wants to spare my life, he can just do it directly. Using such a dirty trick makes me underestimate him. "

Xi Zhicai smiled faintly and said, "Wen Ruo is worrying too much. The lord has absolutely no such intention. Since Wen Ruo cannot accept it, I will take the ten thousand gold back first."

The two drank a few more glasses of wine. Xun Yu glanced at the sky, stood up, said goodbye and left.

Xi Zhicai looked at the carriage going further and further away, and couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Close friends who once fought side by side are now going their separate ways in the blink of an eye.

If they meet again next time, even though they are close friends, they will inevitably compete with each other.

Thinking of this, Xi Zhicai inexplicably felt a sense of heroism.

Since we can't be friends, being able to compete with Xun Wenruo would be a great pleasure in life!
