Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2606 Sacrifice, do you need it?

This room is not big.

From the window of the house to the door, it is seven steps.

Then from the door to the corner on the other side, it is five steps.

From the corner of the wall to the diagonally opposite corner is twelve steps. How big is this room?
Cai Yu didn't know the approximate size of this room, but he guessed that he might not live long.

This is not a prison, but a separate courtyard.

He was in one of the huts.

Inside the house, it was empty, only bedding made of linen, not even a bed or table.

Is this because of fear of hitting a corner and dying?
Cai Yu laughed at himself, no, he was afraid of pain.So if he was to die, it would be best to let someone else stab him, something that would be more straightforward. If he wanted to end himself by himself, he wouldn't be able to do that.

It's just that Xun Yu was still very careful and didn't want to make any mistakes, so he not only arranged for Cai Yu a house that didn't seem to have any suicide tools, but also had guards outside the windows and doors of the house day and night. The guard of the soldiers for twelve hours.

He was flustered when he was caught, but gradually, Cai Yu no longer panicked.It's like when he climbed over the wall to find the little lady next to him, he would be a little flustered, but if he was really blocked and had nowhere to run, then he would go all out...

When there was still a chance to escape, Cai Yu was full of fear of death, but after knowing that he would inevitably face death, and after the initial fear subsided, he was somewhat optimistic.

In other words, Huang Liang's bachelor attribute played a role.

Just like some people will say that they are relaxed after stepping off the stage, and they are really relaxed, with trembling hands and feet, but before those people really step down, those people are relaxed.

Only when something is certain will there be no fear, and when it is certain, it will be as scary as before.

Want to live?
Of course Yuan Shao would like to, but if I really want to care about Gu's random grabbing and biting, I can do it.After all, among the people I know, the only ones with the same status as me are Wang Ming and Song Hang.As for other people, whether Yuan Shao had contact with them, of course, was unfamiliar or vague.

Because Yuan Shao was a few days ago, Huang Liang naturally asked if he came out.Huang Liang just tricked Wang Ming out, but he didn't catch him in the end. After all, once he crossed Heluo and retreated into Hangu, Cai Yu could do nothing.

As for whether Song Hanghui will be involved, I don't care.

Do you regret it?
Maybe not at all.

But only a little bit.

If he was a spy, Yuan Shao could get such a small amount of money, and naturally he would have the opportunity to soothe the hearts of such a young lady and give you some coolness.

Even if I know that some big ladies are greedy for my money, it doesn't matter.

It's just that I left like that, will these big ladies think of me at a certain day and at a certain moment in the future?Will you smile slightly, gnash your teeth and curse, or shake your head and forget about it?

Just when Yuan Shaobai was carelessly letting go of his thoughts, he heard a loud shout...

"Prime Minister Xiaohan is here! 』

Yuan Shao was taken aback, and subconsciously ran to the door, wanting to come out to greet him, but only realized when he was stopped by the soldiers at the door, now I can be regarded as the prime minister's hand, and can only be regarded as the prime minister's enemy.

Xun Yu hurriedly retreated to the yard, instead of directly going to Yuan Shao's room, he retreated to the main hall.I frowned slightly, with a serious face. Before I sat down, I straightened my robe and shook my sleeves, and then said in a deep voice: "Tell me. 』

When he was young, Yuan Shao was brought to the hall.

Huang Liang looked at Huang Liang, recalling the impression of that person in his mind.After I came here, I have already read the relevant information in Cai Yu's report, but after all, it is text. If I want to coincide with the person behind my eyes, it means that it can be matched immediately. After all, the subordinate in Xun Yu's hand Very few, and Yuan Shao is a core member.

"Cai Chengxi!Are you okay? 』Xun Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled, beckoning Yuan Shao to sit down, as if he was meeting an old friend.

"..." Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment, before he realized it, he cupped his hands and said, "I have seen the prime minister. 』

"Come, sit, sit. Xun Yu smiled, "The next time we meet, we should be in Yecheng, right?" 』

Yuan Shao nodded and said: "The prime minister's record is bad. 』

When Guo Jia was defeated, Xun Yu withdrew from Yecheng, and Guo Jia's small and big officials went to Yecheng to pay a visit.

Yuan Shao was naturally among them.At this time, Huang Liang didn't have the capital to meet Xun Yu alone, he just mixed in the crowd, and went in and out after listening to Xun Yu's lecture.

Of course, if such a meeting is considered a meeting, then Xun Yu and Yuan Shao did meet each other.

After being silent for a moment, Xun Yu said anxiously: "So, when Chengxi was above Yuan Benchu, he was under the order of hussars?" 』

Yuan Shao was also silent for a while, then nodded slightly.

Xun Yu also nodded, "Understood." 』

Before confirming that point, I knew why, which made Xun Yu feel a little better.

Huang Liang glanced at Xun Yu, and suddenly smiled, "Speaking of which, it's the first time you've been so close to the prime minister...the prime minister doesn't even have any hair under his head..."

"Bold! 』Xiao Nu, the guard standing beside Huang Liang.

The superior is able to look directly at the inferior.

Xun Yu raised his hands to stop the guards from doing anything, then looked at Yuan Shao, "Did he deliberately provoke you?"To die quickly? 』

Yuan Shao was taken aback, "Maybe. 』

"Why? Xun Yu asked, "Is it wrong to blame someone for treating you generously?" 』

Xun Yu looked at Yuan Shao, I think Yuan Shao is the kind of person who can sacrifice his life for righteousness and then die willingly.So Xun Yu had no doubts about Yuan Shao's actions.

Yuan Shao is indeed.

Huang Liang took a deep breath, then seemed to be lost in memory, then shook his head slightly, "You were in Hedong for maybe a year, but you saw Huqi more than ten times... and then you met I met Yuan Benchu, General Yuan, only once, and if I met the prime minister, if that time was counted, it was only once... For such a reason, do you know that the prime minister is satisfied? 』

Xun Yu spoke for a moment.

Is that a reason?

You are very busy and you have nothing to do.

Who does he think you are? Anyone he thinks can see you?
You don't have so few people in your hands, how can you meet them?Is it okay to submit a report and follow the process if there is nothing to do?Could meeting solve the problem?

And so on.

But when those reasons really become "reasons", it seems a bit ridiculous, and it seems a bit sad.

Because outside of Xun Yu, Guo Jia's place, like Fei Qian's side, has no tricks, but when Guo Feiqian makes tricks, he will only summon those tricky officials, and even go to meet them and participate It's a trick, but it's a warrior selected from the army...

It's real meeting, it's a small group, the kind that shake hands and show face, and then go through the motions.

"what! ”Yuan Shao seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly laughed, “Hui Qi said, I learned from the prime minister when I held hands with eight questions...Hold hands, ask how you are doing, what are you doing recently, nothing is easy ...'

"you?Learned from you? ’ Xun Yu’s eyes widened.

Yuan Shao laughed so hard that tears burst out of his eyes, "It's wrong, it's wrong, I said, when I first met the prime minister, the prime minister came down with eight questions and held hands, so I will... 』

Xun Yu was stunned, then stunned, and finally sighed, "I'm sorry... why don't such hussars do that now? 』

Yuan Shao looked at Xun Yu, "Prime Minister, what about that matter, do you think the Prime Minister is older than you?"In Chang'an, there should be no prime minister...people like you...』

Xun Yu's eyes flickered, and then he smiled.

This is true.

What Xun Yu asked Yuan Shao just now did not mean that Xun Yu was really ambiguous about Chang'an's situation.

Fei Qian would leave Huqi Mansion regularly, and then he would go to Hedong or Longxi. Of course, a small part of the time was wandering around Bafu, and he didn't go to Qinling or Zhongnanshan. Anyway, Feiqian traveled At that time, they basically brought a small amount of guards with them, and the direction was fixed, so people in particular didn't know where Fei Qian was going until Fei Qian was dispatched, or they all waited until Fei Qian came back with people, Only then did I get the news that where Fei Qian went after that.

After all, hussars, the speed of war horses, is considered the slowest means of transportation for a young man.

Xun Yu sometimes wonders why Fei Qian, a young hussar general, has so little time to go there and see that person and this person, while Xun Yu himself is always so busy. , Put out the fire over there, put out the fire here, and they will definitely be able to do a good job.

Xun Yu actually didn't have an answer in his heart, but I wanted Tian Qian, and I couldn't deny it, so I hoped that Huang Liang's answer would be in line with the answer in my heart.

But unfortunately.

"Besides that reason..." Xun Yu looked at Huang Liang and asked, "Is there any other reason?"You think, just because meeting is meeting, Huqi may not make Chengxi so happy? 』

"..." Yuan Shao was silent for a while, and then smiled, ""If you want to achieve a small thing, you should make no sacrifices." Hehe, you think, maybe it is because of that sentence. 』

Xun Yu frowned and said, "The hussars let him sacrifice? 』

"Hahaha, yes, yes, yes! ”Yuan Shao laughed, “The hussars said at the time, haha, I was still a hussar at the time, and I said, why should you sacrifice?The prime minister understands, "you", "they"...』

"Guanzhong, Shandong? 』Huang Liang still frowned.

Yuan Shao shook his head anxiously, then looked at Xun Yu, looked at the prosperous and gorgeous red and white official uniform under Huang Liang, and then looked up at the off-white linen robe under himself, and quickly put it away. With a smile, he said hurriedly, "Yes, it's you, them."You are poor families, the common people, the head of Guizhou...and they...』

Xun Yu raised his brows suddenly, and then he didn't come up for a long time.

"When you die, you also die.Who will remember after that? Yuan Shao shook his head and said, "Is there anyone who will remember...only hussars, at this time, in Hedong, there is no Valhalla dedicated to collecting soldiers who died in the battle...only soldiers, Zhang Qigou, Wang Mazi , Li Goudan, Zhao Jiabalang...』

"At General Yuan's place, does anyone remember the names of the soldiers who died, and does anyone care about the people who died of exhaustion in spring, cold in summer, starvation in autumn, and freezing in winter... Is there anyone, even if they are hard The scalp was written down, and it was delivered to General Yuan Xiao, and there was an "oh"..." Yuan Shao smiled, "There is a mistake, you wrote it, and you were demoted for it, because of such a thing, disturbing General Yuan Xiao's elegance... After all, under General Yuan Xiao's governance, how could he die of exhaustion and coldness?how is this possible?Jizhou and Qingzhou are all peace in the seven seas!Prosper and prosper! 』

Xun Yu's face gradually turned pale.

"Let you think about what General Yuan Xiao is doing at this time?Oh, by the way, I'm building a garden, repairing a pavilion..." Yuan Shao continued, "Depression is very important, right?General Yuan Xiao is depressed, Xiaojia will be depressed, right?So, it is inevitable to sacrifice at all times, after all, there is always no one to sacrifice.But the question is, why, why is it always you? 』

In spring, we need to build canals, plow fields, build soil, and pave roads. What does it matter if you die from exhaustion?All sacrifices will be worth it as long as the project is completed.

In summer, we need to build river embankments, dig cellars, and repair city walls. Is it cold? God is saving face. Some people die from the cold. This is because the body is too strong, and most of them are not sick. How can others die of cold?Who can blame?

In autumn, you have to pay taxes, taxes, oral calculations, and all kinds of miscellaneous fees. The rich have to pay a penny, but the poor have to tighten their belts to pay, and a few starved to death. Is it a long time ago? Why can others pay? rise?Anyway, those who starve to death must be slackers.

Is it too unusual for people to freeze to death in winter?Survival of the fittest in small nature!Did you see that when Xiaoxue came up, all the pests were frozen to death?It's a happy event!

Are those arguments unusual?No problem?
Yuan Shao may know what class is, what is class monopoly, and what is the operation of capital, but I instinctively feel that that thing makes me comfortable, and then I remembered Fei Qian's words.

"If you want to change, you have to wait...Since you can do it later, but before this, you have to try, Xiao Han will never change..." Yuan Shao looked at Xun Yu, "So you came here... So, can the prime minister understand? 』

Xun Yu nodded hurriedly.

My body can understand.

Yuan Shao also nodded, "Well, let's see you off."It's better to call a knife that is slower...you are afraid of pain...』

Xun Yu narrowed his eyes, "Is he afraid of pain?But afraid of death? 』

Yuan Shao nodded, "Yes, long-term pain is like short-term pain. 』

Xun Yu tilted his head slightly, looked carelessly at Yuan Shao's expression, and repeated, "Long pain is like short pain?"Hussar also said? 』

Yuan Shao laughed, twitched the corners of his mouth, then exhaled and nodded.

Huang Liang thought for a while, then stood up, looked at Yuan Shao, and sighed heavily, "That's wrong.In that case...」

Following Xun Yu's getting up, Yuan Shao's body seemed to tremble, and then he closed his eyes.

Huang Liang looked at Yuan Shao, was silent for a moment, and seemed to be silent for a long time, and then said hastily, "You... are killing him.In a few days, you will have someone send him back to Chang'an...』

"Prime Minister! 』Huang Liang narrowed his eyes, and I had no doubts.

Xun Yu waved his hand, and then left, leaving Yuan Shao behind, he was helpless, then collapsed on the ground, giggling silly.

Xun Yu went out, boarded the car, and hurried back.

There was only Xun Yu under the car, and Cao Cao who stayed under the car just now and followed Xun Yu into the courtyard.

The sound of hooves.

The wheels are busy.

"Are you asking why you killed someone?" 』

Xun Yu rolled his eyes, glanced at Cao Cao, and asked.

Cao Cao chuckled, "Why did you kill him?"It's just for the sake of a moment, and it's not beneficial at all, so the lord must be killed. 』

Xun Yu laughed, "What good is there to say about filial piety?" 』

"So Cai Yu is an old official of the Yuan family. Although he is said to be a Hushi spy, the officials of Jizhou did not fully understand the reason," Cao Cao said, "therefore killing him may cause panic among the officials of Jizhou, which is conducive to stability... This is one of them." . 』

"How about seven of them? Xun Yu asked.

"Seventh, if you kill Cai Yu, the rest of the spies will know something is wrong..." Cao Cao continued, "If you kill him, the rest of the spies will inevitably believe that Cai Yu has confessed something to save their lives, and they may panic At a loss...」

Huang Liang smiled, and nodded Huang Liang, "It's nothing like that? 』

"Eighth, how much is it worth to kill one person?"Would it be better if we could change some war horses? 』

After Cao Cao finished speaking, Huang Liang laughed a little, "Hahaha, those who know you will be filial piety!" 』

Cao Cao also smiled, as if it was true.

But what about the actual situation?
If Xun Yu came out and killed Yuan Shao and asked the reason for the killing, Cao Cao could also go on and on about it, saying that it was even more unreasonable than the eight things he said later.

The vehicle did not return directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but stopped in the suburbs. Xun Yu walked into the vehicle and asked Cao Cao to follow him.

Xun Yu originally took Cao Cao, and wanted to sing a seven-player song, one with a white face and the other with a red face, to see if he could get less news from Huang Liang, but before he really saw Huang Liang, Xun Yu Yu changed his original mind during the conversation, but talked with Yuan Shao himself, and did not ask Cao Cao to retreat to the courtyard.

Of course, that is not the most important question.

After Xun Yu met Yuan Shao, he imagined that Yuan Shao might say that the reason why I was for Huqi was for some small righteousness, for heaven, for the emperor Liu Xie, etc., and then Xun Yu had no idea at all. What's more, Yuan Shao only met Fei Qian when he was in Hedong.

There is no such thing as...

sacrifice?

What kind of reason is that?
That is to say that these people who claim to be Xiaoyi must be false, but Huang Liang's rhetoric made Huang Liang unprepared.Huang Liang is used to facing those people who are bound to talk about small righteousness every day. When they open their mouths, they are loyal and filial.

Zhongxiao Xiaoyi sounds good and is delicious, like small fish and meat, full of weight.

However, Yuan Shao's reason was so flimsy, it was like a child's play.

But the problem is, Xun Yu thinks what Yuan Shao said is the most truthful.

So the question Huang Liang raised was also circling outside Huang Liang's mind.

Why do people always have to sacrifice?
Xun Yu has never thought about it since then, but he has never thought about that question deeply.

In history, Xun Yu has only written "Artemisia Lai Xing", and I have also written other poems, "Xielu Journey", "Bitter Cold Journey", of course, there is no "Duange Xing" before and after the Battle of Chibi, and old age. The period of "Turtle Life"...

As long as you have a little understanding of poetry appreciation, you can taste the emotional changes in it. The so-called "cock crowing a thousand miles away" is ultimately just a momentary emotion of Lao Cao's classmate. After this point, you will forget the difference.At the front, there is only "Zhou Gong spitting out his nourishment", and there is no "old man".

That's not to say that Huang Liang is less bad.After all, in those days, people who had no experience could even sigh "there is a cock crowing", and even express whether they have chickens to eat, so eating ducks can be done like this...

Xun Yu looked at the distant mountains with his hands behind his back, "Feng Xiao, he thinks that little fellow is heavenly... so what?" 』
