After hearing this, Xia Xun thought to himself: "This person's ancestor was actually a county king? He is really a descendant of a famous family. Huh? No, the Tang Dynasty was dominated by the Li family, but his surname was Guo... Oh, I think it was a king with a different surname. Chao... a king with a different surname surnamed Guo... that is..."

Before he had time to connect the title of King of Fenyang County with a Tang Dynasty Guo surname, Liu Yujue was taken aback, and said in awe: "It turns out that the old gentleman's first lease is the one who's power over the world and the government is not afraid, and the meritorious Guo Ziyi, Mr. Guo Laoling, who is one generation and the Lord is not in doubt?"

Guo Yixuan smiled and said, "It's the rent first!"

What Liu Yujue said made Xia Qing think of it, and the two hurriedly saluted together: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Guo Yixuan laughed and said, "That's just the glory of our ancestors, it happened hundreds of years ago, so it's not worth mentioning."

He said modest words, but when he mentioned the glory of his ancestors, he couldn't help showing a look of complacency on his face.

Guo Yixuan sighed and said: "Since the Tang Dynasty, my Guo family's family has been in decline. Until the Jin Dynasty, the ancestor of my Guo family, Yuchen Gong, was proficient in astronomy, knew the art of war, and was good at riding and shooting. He was appreciated by the emperor of the Jin Dynasty. He also accumulated meritorious service and was granted the title of Duke of Fenyang County, revitalizing the Guo family.

But not long after, the Jin Dynasty was exhausted and was destroyed by Mongolia. Baoyu Gong surrendered to Mongolia and moved to the Central Plains with General Mu Huali.This is the period when my Guo family was rejuvenated. Yuchen Gong followed the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty to crusade against the Khitan remnants. He defeated Yiduo and other cities in the ancient Xugui Kingdom, and defeated more than [-] of his soldiers.Take away the cities of Bieshubali, Bieshilan, Mali and so on.He also took Khitan, Bohuo and other countries from the two pioneers of Zhebai and Subotai, which can be described as a great contribution.

Hehe, when the ancestors personally conquered the Western Regions Biesha Bali, Bieshuran and other places, they were recovered from the Khitan survivors by the ancestors. Unexpectedly, a few hundred years later, Guo would have the opportunity to come here again, so every plant and tree here is treated with care. The grains of sand and the clouds are very friendly, and I like to walk around when I have nothing to do, but I ran into you here, my little brother. "

Xia Xun didn't know that Guo Ziyi's descendants were high-ranking officials in the Jin and Yuan dynasties. He introduced his identity just now, and thought that during the Five Dynasties and Ten Siege period, the Guo family had been exiled in a foreign land. Some conflicts suddenly arose in the experiencer's heart.

In fact, the family of famous Han generals in the Yuan Dynasty is really unnecessary. For example, the famous generals of the Yang family, and their descendants have made military exploits to the generals of the dragon and tiger in the Yuan Dynasty.Another example is Shi Tianze, Liu Zheng, Dong Jun, Li Fen... The Zhang family of the Yuan Dynasty Han general family is not inferior to the famous family of the Guo family.

Zhang Rou of the Zhang family was named Cai Guogong by the Yuan court because of his military exploits. His eldest son was Ke Hangzhou. He captured the five-year-old Emperor Song Gong, Queen Mother Xie, and Queen Mother Quan. Zhang Hongfan who watched the young master Zhao Bing jump into the sea and died.The second son was Zhang Hongzheng, who had captured Song Prime Minister Wen Tianxiang.

The credit of the Zhang family is mainly in the Central Plains, and the credit of the Guo family is mainly in the Western Regions.If the descendants of the Zhang family were here, it would be even more difficult for Xia Xun to accept it, but for these famous families of Han officials in the Yuan Dynasty, it was just that they were their masters at that time, so they didn't think much of it.

In fact, as early as the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, when the Central Plains were in turmoil, they were placed under the rule of Liao most of the time. In the Southern Song Dynasty, they even became the Han people in the area ruled by the Jin Dynasty. Many of them were from the Song Dynasty. Since its establishment, it has never had any contact with the Han government in the Central Plains.

Among these famous generals of the Yuan court, there is only one Liu Zheng, who was once a general of the Song Dynasty.Later it fell to Mongolia.But even he was originally a Han Chinese under the rule of the Jin people, but later Mongolia destroyed the Jin. Between Mongolia and Song, he chose to lead his private army to vote for Song.It's a pity that the traitor Jia Sidao ruled out dissidents, and forced him to the side of the Mongols.

At that time, in order to fight for power, Jia Sidao took many famous heroes and generals to prison, and died alive. Even Wang Jian, who made great contributions to Dazhai in the Battle of Diaoyu City, fell into Jia Sidao's scheme. Let alone Liu Zheng?Liu Zheng once sent someone to Hangzhou to file an imperial petition, but he did not accept it at all. Seeing that the butcher knife was about to reach his neck, he surrendered to Mongolia with 30 households in Luzhou and its fifteen counties.

Liu Zheng not only put forward the strategic concept of taking Xiangyang first for the Mongols, but also formed a powerful navy for the Mongols, which wiped out the advantage of the navy in the Southern Song Dynasty.It was Liu Zheng who prompted the Yuan Dynasty to make a major strategic adjustment, which led to the demise of the Nanzhai Dynasty, which had been in the south of the Yangtze River for more than 140 years.

The Southern Song Dynasty can be said to be a self-destructive pillar. If it weren't for the traitor Jia Sidao, the Southern Song Dynasty might not have perished.

Although Xia Xun was hostile towards Guo Yixuan, he couldn't show it on his face. Seeing that he was chatting with Liu Yujue excitedly, he hurried forward and said, "Mr., it's rare to meet people from my hometown here. Please sit down and talk, but it's too late here." The house is simple, there is no tea and water, and the hospitality is not good, please don't blame it!"

Xia Xun's complexion has turned Li Hei, and he has a beard. At first glance, Guo Yixuan didn't realize that he is also a compatriot, but he thought he was a Mongolian. He was surprised when he heard his gentle words. :"Who is this……"

Xia Xun sighed and said: "It's hard to say, old man, please sit down, let's talk slowly!"

Guo Yixuan was not too polite, seeing that the top of the box was a neat job, so he used it as a seat.This Guo Yixuan was very excited to see the compatriots from the Central Plains here, he was very talkative, and at the same time he was very proud of the achievements of the Guo family, when Liu Yujue asked, he began to talk endlessly.Speaking of which, since the Tang Dynasty, the Guo family really did not regain its glory until the Jin and Yuan Dynasties.Since Guo Baoyu, famous generals of the Guo family have emerged in large numbers.Guo Dehai, the eldest son of Guo Baoyu, once defeated Peng Yibin, a general of the Song Dynasty.Guo Baoyu's second son, Guo Deshan, also made great military exploits, and was later named Marquis of Wanhu.

His grandson Guo Kan is even more powerful. As the deputy marshal of Mongolia's Western Expedition, Guo Kan followed Hulagu to India, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Syria, Egypt, and Frank, and broke more than [-] cities. The Celestial General became the only Han general to conquer Baghdad, drink horses in the ground, and defeat the Crusaders.

In addition to martial arts, the Guo family later produced another big celebrity, that is, Guo Shoujing, a famous water conservancy expert, engineer and scientist in the Yuan Dynasty.

However, a family of Han generals in the Yuan Dynasty like the Guo family was in an extremely embarrassing situation when the Yuan Dynasty fell.Zhu Yuanzhang was merciless to the officials of the Yuan Dynasty who were captured. Many officials were demoted to humble status and became slaves.

These Han officials of the Yuan court were worried about being discriminated against and abused by the Ming court, so when the Yuan dynasty withdrew from Dadu, they all fled one after another. Some of them fled to Mobei with the Northern Yuan court, and more fled to the Western Regions. , because at that time the Western Regions returned to the Khanate established by the Mongols, the Guo family fled to the West at that time, and fled from the Central Plains for more than 40 years.

After Guo Yixuan finished talking about his own experience, he curiously asked about Liu Yujue's experience. In his opinion, someone like Liu Yajue with such a solid background in Sinology must have come from his homeland, the Central Plains, if not from a Han family in the Western Regions.Xia Xun made a careful plan for Liu Yajue's background. At this time, Liu Yajue told Guo Yixuan according to the previously agreed statement.

Liu Yujue's argument was that he was the son of a wealthy gentry in Jinan Prefecture, Shandong Province. During the Battle of Jingnan, his family fully supported Tie Xuan, the governor of Shandong Province, against King Yan. When King Yan won the world, his family was liquidated At that time, a whole family of young and old were slaughtered, and Qi Wei, the loyal steward of the Bai family, was entrusted by the master to escape with Liu Yujue, who was still a boy at that time, so that the Bai family's incense could not be destroyed.

The manager Qi Wei who saved him is now Xia Xun, a circus buster.The two were hiding in Tibet at the beginning, because they didn't dare to stay in the Central Plains for a long time, so they fled all the way to a remote area. Later, they were forced to live in a circus troupe. After ten years, they had already moved to a foreign land.

Speaking of sad, Liu Yujue couldn't help but shed tears.Liu Yujue's expression of true feelings was not fake at all, because he thought of his old father.The old father only lived with his only son, and because he was an adult, he had been refusing to start a family before, and he didn't know how sad he made the old man. Now that he was living in the Western Regions, his father must have thought that he was dead.The old man is old, how can he still suffer such a blow. "I, Liu Yajue, am not filial!"

The more Liu Yujue thought about it, the more she shed tears, and the more she felt guilty, she secretly decided in her heart: If she can escape from birth this time and return to the Central Plains, even if she doesn't like it, she must choose a woman to start a family and give birth to a child. Son and half daughter, to comfort the old father's heart.

Seeing him so sad, Guo Yixuan couldn't help being moved, and sighed softly: "I've heard about the battle of Jingnan, and I heard that the most tragic battle at that time took place in Jinan. It's just the dead, little brother, don't let me die again." Sad. This time Timur Khan is marching eastward, determined to win! Only when Timur Khan takes over the Central Plains and destroys the Zhu Dynasty, your blood and deep revenge will be avenged, and then you will be able to be fair Returning to my hometown..." At this point, Guo Yixuan showed yearning, and after a while he said leisurely: "My old man left home when he was young, and the hometown of Dadu, I only have this vague impression, and every time I think of it, I feel sad..."

Guo Yixuan let out a breath, and cheered up: "Little brother, tell me more about my hometown. Speaking of which, my hometown is not too far from your Jinan mansion."

For Zhongyuan, Guo Yixuan can only remember his childhood appearance.It was at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, when he left home when he was young, and everything Liu Yujue said, although it was a few years ago, was still very fresh to him. Listening to Liu Yujue's narration, he vaguely remembered the past in his childhood, Guo Yixuan couldn't help crying Eyes full.

The Guo family was an aristocrat in the Yuan Dynasty, and they were quite hostile to the Ming Dynasty that overthrew the Yuan Dynasty, but they had deep feelings for their homeland and its people.Love for homeland and hometown, these are the most basic emotions of human beings, and they transcend countries and families established by groups of different forces.In addition, both he and Liu Yajue were persecuted by Ming Dynasty, so they feel more intimate.

The two chatted for a long time as soon as they started talking.The previous performance was over, the audience dispersed one after another, and everyone was busy packing up all kinds of equipment. Guo Yixuan still held Liu Yujue, trying to recall the places and things he experienced in his childhood, and then asked him about them one by one.

Xia Xun couldn't get in the way, so he went to work with everyone.

Guo Yixuan listened to Liu Yujue talk for a long time, then picked up his sleeves, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said with emotion: "It's rare for you and me to get together here. There is something in my heart, I don't know if I should say it or not."

Liu Yujue hurriedly said: "Old gentleman, please say something, and Yuluo will listen attentively."

Guo Yixuan said: "Yuluo, I think you have a handsome character and extraordinary knowledge. It would be a pity if you fall like this, and the white jade will be covered with dust. The old man is getting old, and I am very happy to see my compatriots in my hometown today. You are a scholar. It would be a pity if you hang out in the circus troupe. Now the old man is holding an official position in the army of Timur Khan, and I want to arrange a future for you, are you willing?"

Liu Yujue was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "The old man is gentle and refined, he is a man of great learning, unexpectedly he is also a great general who fights in the battlefield!"

Guo Yixuan laughed and said: "Hey, who said that there are only generals in the army, there are many scholars serving him in the Tiemuer Khan military scarf, astronomers, mathematicians, chemists, construction engineers, military architects, etc. Wait, they are all highly valued by the sweat."

Liu Yujue said in surprise, "Then the old gentleman is..."

Guo Yixuan puffed up his chest slightly, and said, "Old man, now he is in charge of the research of military buildings and military equipment in the Timur Khan Army."

Liu Yujue said in his heart: "Brother is worrying about how to get close to Tie Mu'er. If I rely on this person, can I get close to him?"

Thinking of this, Liu Yujue's heart suddenly jumped...

Guo Yixuan expected that he would definitely agree, Niusu smiled and said, "How?"

Liu Yujue thought for a moment, and said, "Thanks to Mr. Favor, Yuluo is very grateful. People go to high places, can be promoted by Mr. Yuluo, and have a real business life, so Yuluo is naturally very willing. It's just that Yuluo has more than one sympathy. Brother's steward is the people in the circus. After getting along for many years, they are like a family. I don't know if the husband can arrange them in the military camp? It doesn't matter if the work is dirty and tiring. Go to the mother-in-law everywhere, who can listen to the pain."

"This one……"

Guo Yixuan couldn't help frowning when he heard this, he felt sorry for Liu Yajue, who was a good-looking talent, but was reduced to earning a living in a circus, and wanted to accept him as his student, but in the barracks, he can enter casually. It's easy for students to bring in.But for individuals, returning women and children, which government has the power to bring them into the military camp for resettlement.

Liu Yujue couldn't help being disappointed when he heard his explanation of his difficulties, but this was a good opportunity to get close to Timur, at least the government had the opportunity to talk about entering the military camp, so he couldn't let it go.

Liu Yujue said sincerely: "Sir, Yuluo is very willing to follow Mr. on the right path, but everyone in this class has shared joys and sorrows for many years, just like a family, especially my steward, who lived and died with me, as They are like brothers of flesh and blood, and it is really difficult for Yuluo to be separated. Mister, maybe allow Yuluo to work hard for a while, and ask Yuluo to discuss with everyone first?"

Guo Yixuan paid more attention to Liu Yujue after hearing it. He still misses other people in such a rare opportunity. This is how kind and righteous. Only by keeping such a person by his side is it worth cultivating.Therefore, Guo Yixuan said emotionally: "Well, I will come to hear your news tomorrow when I am like this, and you can discuss it with everyone in the class!"

"Thank you, old sir!"

Guo Yixuan got up to say goodbye, Liu Yajue respectfully sent him away, and immediately consulted with Xia Xun after returning.When Xia Xun heard this, he said decisively: "Go! Why don't you go! Even if you can learn more about the situation in this camp because of this, it would be good! Tomorrow, you promise him to live in the barracks with him!"
