[Three Kingdoms] The daily struggle of female counsellors

In the early morning of the next day, Guo Jin went to Yingmao of Taishi Mansion to check in as usual, and stepped out happily after discussing with all the staff.Before he reached the door, he heard someone calling from behind him: "Guo Lang stay!"

Guo Jin turned around in doubt, looked at the nearly forty-year-old man in official uniform behind him, and a name slowly climbed up in his mind——Zheng Tai, Zheng Gongye.

Zheng Tai had no intention of being in the officialdom, but Dong Zhuo's dictatorship forced him to come here. In the near future, this person will plot with Xun You to kill Dong. Although he failed, his integrity is commendable.

Guo Jin cupped his sleeves and bowed, "It was Zheng Yilang."

Zheng Tai was also not polite, he stepped forward directly, bowed back and said: "Mr. Xun is hosting a banquet tonight. If Guo Lang is free, why don't you and I go to the meeting together with Mr. He?"

Xun Gong?He Gong?

Guo Jin thought about it, and the only one in Chang'an who could be called Duke Xun was Xun Yu's uncle Xun Shuang.And this Mr. He is presumably the He Yong and He Boqiu who even Dong Zhuo dared to ask for help.

Thinking that this is a celebrity Qingliu Bureau, although I am familiar with Xun Shuang, since "embracing" Dong Zhuo's thigh, Xun You and Xun Shuang have very little contact with him, so rare that Xun Yu kindly persuaded himself, it was all secretly He ran with his uncle on his back.

Guo Jin couldn't help feeling a little sad, for both Xun Yu and herself.

Thinking of this, Guo Jin bowed regretfully and said, "Although Jin yearns for it, but relatives and friends at home are coming soon, so I may not be able to make it. I hope Zheng Yilang will not be surprised."

The implication is that the other party rejected your team application.

Zheng Tai sneered, and said "Sure enough" in front of Guo Jin. After saying that, he didn't say goodbye to her, but walked away.

Guo Jin: "..."

On the nth day of being despised, my mood was not disturbed.

Guo Jin silently patted the bag she carried with her, feeling the heavy weight of the copper, and then calmed down and went to the iron official's place alone.

The so-called iron official is a characteristic institution in charge of smelting during the Qin and Han Dynasties in China, managing smelting, casting and trade.Regarding the level of smelting at that time, the block iron carburizing method was still the main method in the Western Han Dynasty, the crucible steelmaking method was also used in the Han Dynasty, and "cast iron decarburized steel" was developed in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

Guo Jin got on the carriage, turned around and headed east.The Tieguan is located in the east corner of the city, and there is a canal nearby that is only used by the Tieguan.Guo Jin dismounted and walked straight up the water, but within a few hundred steps, he saw a not-so-obtrusive official office.

As soon as the servant entered the door, Guo Jin was attracted by the iron ore piled up in front of him. Not far from the water source, there was an iron smelting blast furnace with the height of two people. Add glowing charcoal fire.

Guo Jin stopped a schoolboy who was bending over to clean up the slag. Seeing the other party looking back innocently, Guo Jin hurriedly introduced himself and claimed that he wanted to pay homage to Tie Guancheng.

After the other party heard her identity, there was a bit of hesitation in his expression. After a while, under Guo Jinbulingbuling's gaze, he walked in the door to ask for instructions.

Guo Jin maintained a standing posture as tall as a pine and cypress, and saw an old man with a copper seal and yellow ribbon staggering towards the door not far away, Guo Jin bowed his sleeves and greeted calmly: "Junior Guo Jin, I pay my respects to Tie Guancheng." .”

Tie Guancheng was flattered, and exclaimed in amazement: "This old man has poor eyesight, but unexpectedly he is Guo Lang, a famous papermaker in Luoyang?"

Guo Jin: "..."

Well, she admitted that compared to Tian Guolang, this title seems to be an upgrade?

Guo Jin sighed in embarrassment: "It's just copying the scriptures of the predecessors, and the master is absurd."

Tie Guancheng was slightly surprised.

It has long been heard that the Guo family in Yangzhai is used to producing geniuses, and this young man from the Guo family is even more knowledgeable about the past and the present, with extraordinary ideas. Dong Zhuo is in the same boat.

He originally thought that the other party must also be a follower of power, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he felt that the rumors were too untrue, as if they were just hearsay and had not been confirmed.

The people in front of me are like the breeze and the moon, and they are more like a ray of spring breeze than mediocre people who help the evildoers.

The spring breeze is passing through the wild, refreshing and happy.

Tie Guancheng returned to his senses and smiled, and hurriedly invited Guo Jin into the mansion for a detailed discussion.Sitting and looking at Tie Guancheng, Guo Jin took out the copper block that he had carried all the way, stretched out his hand and handed it to him, "Sir, what do you think of this thing?"

Tie Guancheng looked at it for a moment, "It's gorgeous but not astringent, round and radiant. Although it wasn't made by Tie Guan, it can be regarded as a top-notch product."

Guo Jin took back the copper block, then stood up and walked to the window, seeing the other party staring at him curiously, Guo Jin pointed the copper block at the hot sunlight, and the light and shadow instantly refracted out, Guo Jin slightly adjusted the proportion, and Tie Guancheng was captured. The blinding light made him dizzy, and he hurriedly raised his sleeves to cover it.

"What does Guo Lang mean?"

Guo Jin put away the copper and sat back on the original seat, "Sir, can you see clearly what is under the light just now?"

Tie Guancheng was thoughtful: "It's difficult."

Guo Jin smiled again: "If you make iron armor with this thing..."

Leave blank at the end of the sentence to give the other party room for imagination.

armor?Tie Guancheng seemed to have found a treasure: "Wonderful!"

Seeing that the other party agrees with his point of view, Guo Jin continued his efforts: "Jin has the courage to ask Tie Guancheng to build a body armor according to the pattern of such copper guards on the chest and back."

I thought it would take a while to talk, but the clinker should be straightforward: "This is the job of an iron official. It's a pity that Guo Lang has an ingenious mind. He is old and incompetent. I'm afraid it will be difficult to catch up."

Guo Jin felt guilty for a moment, and then shyly accepted the other party's praise: "So, I will trouble Tie Guancheng."

When the matter was settled, Guo Jin bid farewell and left. When the white-clothed boy in front of him had completely disappeared, Tie Guancheng, who was over half a century old, instantly turned dark and raised his eyebrows with a sneer.

Let this young man be a genius by destiny, but he is willing to be a thief.Those who are not of my race should be punished.

·

After having tea and food in the afternoon, Xun Yu and his wife bid farewell to Guo Jin.

Although Guo Jin was reluctant, she still conscientiously prepared the carriages and horses, set off with Guo Jia, and sent the two of them to the outskirts of Dongcheng.

The corners of Tang Yan's mouth drooped a little, and his expression was quite depressed, so when she held Guo Jin's hands sadly, Guo Jin didn't notice for a moment, and even forgot to withdraw her fingers as soon as possible.

Tang Yan wiped away the tears that were not there, and said goodbye sadly: "This farewell, Guo Lang cherishes it."

Guo Jin squinted her eyes and smiled, wondering how to politely and gracefully put aside the opponent's hands, but suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind.She suddenly felt that this Tang Fan was not as simple as a "nymphomaniac".

There is an unspeakable sense of familiarity in her disposition, even in her temperament principles.

seem……

It seems that he and Tang Wenben are from the same era?

Thinking about it carefully, Guo Jin didn't want to delve into it any further. In the blink of an eye, Tang Fan rushed to his elder brother.Guo Jin smiled helplessly, Xu Shi finally got the time to be alone, Xun Yu walked up to Guo Jin, his eyes were clear and bright, and the dark meaning of last night had long since disappeared.

Guo Jin thought, he finally let go.

Patting the other party's shoulder, seeing Xun Yu laughing a little tiredly, even a little downcast, Guo Jin couldn't bear it, and asked again with concern: "Brother Wen Ruo is sick?"

Xun Yu thought about it and said, "No problem."

He is heartbroken.

Heart disease, no doctor.

But fortunately, it's all over, he found his "good medicine", and Ah Jin's heart is no longer with him.

Or maybe, it never stayed on him.

Everything is just his dream, nothing more.

Guo Jin heard the sound, and only thought about it and said goodbye: "I only hope that the future will be unlimited, and there will be a period later!"

Xun Yu tilted his head and smiled, his voice was full of determination: "Yes."

You and I will meet again at the top of the mountain.

……

After Xun Yu and his wife left, Guo Jin and Guo Jia set foot on the carriage for the return journey.

There were only her two companions in the car, and Guo Jia's gaze was erratic, as if he was looking at her, or just watching the boundless blue sky behind her.

Guo Jin stared straight at the other side, her elder brother was very different from the past at the moment, he obviously had such a laid-back temperament, but now just being looked at by her, his face was already rosy, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, he didn't know what he was shy about. Even the neck, which was as white as snow, was stained with an inch of red in an instant.

Guo Jin moved over worriedly, and put her fingers on the other's forehead thoughtfully.

It was very hot, as if being scorched by boiling water, and even Guo Jin's fingers trembled and became hot.

Guo Jin touched each other's shoulders and asked sincerely, "Brother, did you catch the cold?"

Seeing her innocently staring at him, Guo Jia obviously paused, his heart, which was originally hot and enthusiastic, suddenly seemed to be covered with ice and snow.

Seeing that he was stunned and silent, Guo Jin couldn't help but bent over and took the felt blanket she carried with her, carefully draped it over his shoulders, and continued to care: "If brother is sick, he should seek medical attention earlier, don't delay."

Guo Jia was completely speechless.

He thought about a hundred kinds of Ah Jin's reaction to last night's situation after waking up, but what he didn't expect was that the other party chose to refuse to admit it.

I don't know if she really forgot, or if she was pretending to be stupid.

Guo Jin retired and sat back in his original position.On the surface, he is elegant and comfortable, but after feeling the fiery gaze of the other party, his heart is beating like a drum.

Her mind was full of the ambiguous scene of the two being entangled together last night. The elder brother pinned himself on the couch so forcefully, not allowing her to escape for a moment, but his voice was charming and bewitching.

He asked, "Ah Jin likes me?"

He could ask such a shameful question, but Guo Jin couldn't answer it.

Therefore, under the premise of being blinded by alcohol, Guo Jin still did not forget to push the opponent's arms angrily, and must not surrender and let him do whatever he wanted.

Guo Jia saw that she lost her temper, and the strength in her hands remained unabated, but her voice was so gentle that she almost spit out water, "A Jin likes me, right?"

With such a mood, it seems that if Guo Jin doesn't answer, he can persist until the end of time.

Guo Jin was so irritated by him, she just muttered in a low voice: "So what if you like it?"

Hearing the sound, Guo Jia couldn't hold back the smile on his lips anymore, he suddenly lowered his head, the tip of his nose was about to touch Guo Jin, and the distance between their lips was only a hair's breadth.

The movement of leaning forward to kiss directly stopped suddenly.Thinking of something, Guo Jia held his breath slightly, and just stared straight at Guo Jin.

Guo Jin was so confused by his teasing, her heart itched unbearably, seeing that the other party refused to move, she just pouted lightly, and took the initiative to stick Guo Jia's rosy lips.

Very comfortable.

Guo Jin thought contentedly, the ice is cold and soft, making people want to take a bite.

Thinking so, a certain female hooligan really did this...
