Chapter 444 Xun Yu
"Xun Yu Xun Wenruo?"
Shang Ji was still stunned by his identity as a small official, and blurted out an exclamation.
Shang Ji never expected that the little official who was sweating profusely to help him move things in the meritorious service turned out to be the famous Xun Yu!
Xun Yu is said to have little talent, and is known as the talent of Wang Zuo. He was the chief counselor and hero of Cao Cao's Dingding North in history, and was proudly called "My Son's House" by Cao Cao.
"With Wenruo's family background and talent, how could he waste his time in a place like the meritorious service? Is there something I don't know about it?"
Knowing that the person in front of him was Xun Yu, Shang Ji's curiosity was immediately aroused.
Needless to say, Xun Yu's family background, the famous Yingchuan Xun family, the grandfather is Xun Shu who is known as the "God King", and his father is Xun Yu, one of the eight dragons of the Xun family. Going back further, the ancestor of the Xun family is Xunzi, a great thinker and educator in the Warring States period. The Xun family can be regarded as a top gentry in the world.
And Xun Yu was famous for his talent, and his fame spread all over the world at a young age. And where is the place of meritorious service? That is an institution for the elderly, and people with lofty ideals who are a little bit ambitious and revenge are not willing to work in the meritorious service.
When Xun Yu heard what Shang Ji said, his face turned bitter, he let out a long sigh, and explained the reason slowly.
At this time in history, Xun Yu was still studying or taking care of him, but because of the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Emperor Han Ling was influenced by the players and recruited a group of famous scholars in advance. Xun Yu is the most well-known one among them.
Although Emperor Han Ling recruited them, for some unknown reason, he did not give them important tasks, and Xun Yu only served as the guard of the palace.
His garrison order has not yet been firmly established, the world is changing, Liu Hong and He Jin died one after another, the eunuch party headed by the ten permanent servants disappeared, and Dong Zhuo and Zhang Jiao took control of the world.
And Xun Yu was sent to the meritorious service to sit on the bench!
In fact, Xun Yu's status in the Xun family is not as high as imagined!
The Xun family is a powerful family in the world, and the eight dragons of the Xun family are all noble and knowledgeable in the eyes of outsiders. However, the so-called Xun's Eight Dragons are quite suspected of commercial bragging.
At least what Xun Yu's father, Xun Yu, has done is not worthy of the words "high and clean character"!
During the period of Emperor Huan, there was a little Huangmen named Tang Heng. Together with several other eunuchs, he assisted Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty in killing Liang Ji, the powerful general, and was promoted to Zhongchang Shi, granted the title of Marquis, and formed the "Five Marquis" with the rest of the Marquis, with power over the world.
Tang Heng had a daughter. He originally planned to marry her to Fu Gongming, a famous scholar in Runan at that time. But Fu Gongming despised Tang Heng's behavior and resolutely refused.
At this time Xun Yu appeared on the stage. He admired Tang Heng's power and took the initiative to take over the offer and let Xun Yu marry Tang Heng's daughter.
This made Xun Yu miserable, colluding with eunuchs was the most despicable act in the public opinion environment at that time, especially for a child of a family like Xun Yu, Xun Yu was ridiculed for a while.
However, Xun Yu also really has a great ability, forcibly relying on his talent to reverse his image in the eyes of the world.
However, it can also be seen from this incident that Xun Yu was not valued in the Xun family at the beginning, and he was a victim that could be used to make "marriage" with eunuchs.
Because of Tang Heng, Xun Yu was more or less labeled as an eunuch. Dong Zhuo put the big hat of Liu Hongzhi's death on Zhang Rang's head. From a political point of view, the eunuch party must be thoroughly cleaned.
Xun Yu, the half of the eunuch party, was naturally also affected, and was sent to serve in the meritorious service.
However, Dong Zhuo also intends to subdue Xun Yu, and has repeatedly hinted that as long as Xun Yu is soft and works for Dong Zhuo, he will naturally be able to rise to the top. However, Xun Yu felt that following Dong Zhuo had no future, and he didn't despise Dong Zhuo as a man, so he kept pretending that he didn't understand Dong Zhuo's hints.
Before that, Dong Zhuo and Xun Yu were in a state of hawking, competing with each other.
However, as time passed, Dong Zhuo's patience was gradually exhausted, and Xun Yu's situation became more and more dangerous. At this time, Shang Ji extended an olive branch, and Xun Yu went down the donkey to accept the invitation, planning to go to Pingzhou to avoid the limelight.
Shang Ji only felt that today is really a lucky star, he completed the merit exchange without any damage,
Returning to the world, he recruited top civil servants like Xun Yu like a pie.
"Wen Ruo, once Thief Dong finds out about your departure, he will definitely be furious. There is also a possibility that the entire city will be sealed off for search and arrest. We need to get out of the city as soon as possible and leave Dong Zhuo's sphere of influence!"
After finally catching a top civil servant, Shang Ji raised his heart all of a sudden.
Shang Ji was willing to hang up himself once, and he didn't want Xun Yu to fall into Dong Zhuo's hands again, so he immediately urged him to leave Luoyang City as soon as possible.
After leaving Luoyang City, Shang Ji and his party of five people, even if Dong Zhuo has the ability to reach the sky, he would not be able to find them in the vast crowd.
Xun Yu also understood the seriousness of the matter, nodded immediately, and rushed out of the city with Shang Ji.
Thanks to the magnificence and prosperity of Luoyang City, with hundreds of millions of people as a cover, it is still very easy to hide a few people.
An hour later, after simply dressing up in disguise, the three of them left Luoyang City.
Outside Luoyang City, Huang Zhongyu and Zhao Yun were waiting anxiously.
The two of them were ambushing outside the Merit Exchange Office, but they suddenly saw Chu Feiyan surrounding the Merit Office with a large number of Yellow Turban Immortals. The two of them didn't know that Shang Ji must have been exposed.
He was about to make some noise on the outside to attract the attention of the Yellow Turban Army and help Shang Ji escape from the place of meritorious service.
In the end, they received a communication from Shang Ji, strictly ordering the two not to do anything, immediately exit Luoyang City, and wait outside the city.
The two had no choice but to obey Shang Ji's order after struggling for a while.
Suddenly seeing three fast horses galloping towards them, Huang Zhong's eyesight was far superior to that of others, and he looked closely, and immediately found that the leader was Shang Ji.
"Zilong, it's the lord!"
The two were overjoyed, got on their horses, and went to meet Shang Ji.
"My lord!"
"The situation is urgent, so don't talk about these hypocrisy, turn around immediately, and get out of Sansuke's range as soon as possible!"
Shang Ji didn't have time to explain, and shouted at the two of them.
Just now, news came from the dark line arranged by Shang Ji in Luoyang that Luoyang City was under martial law and the city gates were sealed off. Zhang Jiao and Dong Zhuo personally dispatched and mobilized a large number of troops. In name, it is to chase after the remnants of the eunuch party, but Shang Ji knows very well that this is aimed at himself.
Shang Ji is now very grateful that he left the city one step earlier, otherwise Shang Ji would not have the confidence to break through the 30-foot-high city wall of Luoyang City, let alone Xun Yu and his servant boy.
But don't be careless at this time, Zhang Jiao's methods are all kinds of strange, who knows if there is any tracking secret method. Now it is the best policy to leave Sansuke's land as soon as possible and get out of Dong Zhuo's sphere of influence.
Needless to say Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Shang Ji, the warriors who fight on the battlefield are naturally good at equestrian skills.
Xun Yu's servant boy also shoulders the responsibility of protecting Xun Yu's safety, and he is also a first-class general at a young age. Although Xun Yu was a literati, the Confucian scholars of this era paid attention to the six arts of a gentleman.
It may be difficult to fight on the battlefield, but it is still no problem to leap the horse and draw the bow.
A group of five people galloped on horseback and ran away in a hurry.
