"And what the hell is Xu Shao? Unheard of."

Lu Bu's mood, which had just gotten a little better when he saw his own gentleman first look confused, then his eyes lit up and he instantly brushed him aside, smiling warmly and letting his subordinates lead him into this place, took a sharp turn for the worse.

Yan Qing guffawed and corrected in a gentle voice, "Xu Zi will be a famous scholar in Ru Nan, not a thing. My lord, this statement is inevitably light on the suspicion of neglect, in front of the Qing talk about it, absolutely do not tell others to listen to it."

Lu Bu made a fussing oh and pursued the question with intent, "He is an old acquaintance of Shiguang?"

Yan Qing raised his eyebrows, ''How could that be? Qing and Xu ZiGong have never met. It is just that this kind of celebrities who are known to the world, who have the reputation of knowing people, and who are convinced by the public, and who are willing to come all the way to join us, are really a beautiful thing to ask for, in terms of both feelings and reasoning. I, etc. when the hospitality to welcome, grant asylum, make an example, so that the world of scholars know that the Lord's reputation and ambition, has been different from the past."

For Xu Shao, who was desperate for a safe and reliable political refuge, it was a case of getting what he wanted.

Cao Cao, born in a family of eunuchs, when young and wild, also had a period of sex days, can finally be among the scholar class, in addition to his own talent and hard work, with the teacher Cai Yong and other Confucian masters of the teachings and reputation is also inseparable from the relationship.

He later through coercion, but also to get an evaluation from the mouth of the then famous Xu Shao, mostly to obtain a recognized by the scholarly sign, the most important thing is the symbolic significance of it, and not in this half-hearted treacherous criticism itself, but also to call the year 20 years was elected filial piety Lian seems logical up.

Yan Qing although I do not know why the always keen and cautious Xu Shao would feel that the usually fierce and famous, only recently called the reformed Lu Bu would be safer than looking at the kind Tao Qian, people since they are here, he absolutely want the other party to stay, but also to help get the moon Dan evaluation back up.

This is different from those godly, ambiguous magicians, even if the comments are not free from bias, Xu Shao, as one of the former leaders of the scholars, and the best of the experts in character study, the ability to recognize and identify people is extraordinary.

Soon after meeting him, he was able to accurately and ruthlessly see through Cao Cao's lordly nature, and the hidden murderous intent of Tao Qian, who treated him with courtesy and warmth.

Let Xu Shao reopen the month Dan evaluation, continue to openly phase people, both can call his own fame, and to the evaluation of the people who tend to rush in no shortage of talented people, but also when flocked to the show Lv Bu Hai Nai Chuan, Ming Yin Ying Shi's broad-mindedness, but also to undertake the near water tower first to get the moon of the convenience.

Most importantly, Lu Bu was in need of a way to clear his reputation as a "reckless man" and a "slave of the Three Families", and Xu Shao's arrival was a timely rain.

From the time whether it is origin or personality, are generally despised Cao Cao to his 'humble words and generous gifts', are not as good as pinching the handle after threatening a good use of the old news, Xu Shao is stubborn, but the bones do not claim to have much hard, but quite aware of the times.

In this way, Yan Qing had more than enough ways to get him to agree to give Lu Bu a comment that was at least not unpleasant.

See Yan Qing corner of the eyes and eyebrows are containing a smile, more and more set off by the crystal jade face elegant, Lu Bu's heart and mind can not help but slightly swing, also with the collection of unimpressed expression, nodded his head squarely: "That is indeed worth seeing."

Yan Qing really just couldn't help but look at him one more time, relieved and joyful, "The Lord is so deeply righteous, Qing relieved extremely."

Lu Bu raised his eyebrows in triumph, but on his lips, he still pretended to be modest: "If Bu has not made any progress, wouldn't he have to labor on everything, how can he be a human master?"

Yan Qing couldn't help himself, "Then Qing needs to ask for the Lord's cooperation."

In contrast, the one who is more solicitous is Xu Shao rather than them, so he has to keep the initiative firmly in his hands, and he will receive them, negotiate the conditions, and then let Lu Bu come out, so that he will not fall out of the picture.

Without losing his manners, he respectfully invited Lu Bu back to the inner hall, and once the screen was set up, he ordered someone to prepare the guest's tea set in the outer hall, and while waiting for Xu Shao to be led here, he sipped the fine tea in a bland and self-contained manner.

As a result, the one who came first was not Xu Shao, but Guo Jia, who had gone and returned.

He was dressed in a wide robe and wide sleeves, as if he were walking leisurely into the hall, and at a glance he saw Yan Qing, who was seated in the main seat with an out-of-the-ordinary, austere and inviolable relegation to the immortal phoenix, and then laughed out, flirting, "Which honored guest is to come, and is worthy of Chongguang to be this sternly awaiting him?"

Yan Qing winked at him provocatively, instantly becoming auriferous as if a finely carved jade statue had been brought to life by someone with a wonderful brush.

He asked with a flourish, "Xu Zi will be here soon, is Feng Xiao interested in staying or getting a taste?"

Guo Jia is not interested in being judged, even if the other side of a favorable review, it means that stepped on a block of fame and ambition of the ascending stone is not moved, half of the point is not euphemistic refused: "This kind of honor, Jia is not blessed to consume, it is not necessary."

Yan Qing had been speaking casually, and had guessed that he would refuse, and was not surprised, so he asked, "Then what is Fengxiao here for?"

Guo Jia smiled and said: "It is not a big deal, not more important than the heavy light a moment to deceive Xu Zi will stay to be important, to be you after this matter and then mention it, it is not too late. Just Jia and think of another pile to, in my opinion, you most likely do not know about this, intend to remind, I do not know you want to listen to not."

"Oh?" Yan Qing asked with interest, "May I ask what is the matter?"

The corner of Guo Jia's lips raised, colorful said: "Xu Zi will come before, had been Tao Gongzu's guest. One day at a banquet, he asked, 'I've heard that ZiGong has the ability to identify people, and I have a favor to ask.' Xu Zi will ask 'Lord Gongzu but ask no harm, Shao when the effort to solve the puzzle.'"

"I heard Tao Gongzu say that the world was in great chaos, and Qian had the heart to assist the king, but he was unable to help. The world praised Zi will be 'the one who dials Shi,' can you be willing to for the humble dialing the blinding clouds and fog, to say clear and clear, there are which good talent and beautiful jade, can be a world of determination of the miraculous Zuo?'"

Hearing this in a bewildered manner, Yan Qing inadvertently saw Guo Jiazine's impish smile, and then, linking it to the fact that Xu Shao had come to run for no apparent reason, had a bad feeling, "Xu Zi General wouldn't have blurted out Qing's name off the top of his head, would he?"

Guo Jia smiled and admitted, "I really can't hide it from you!"

It's all a big deal!

Although the month Dan evaluation has ceased to be organized, but Xu Shao as the head of its fame, the remaining power does not diminish, can get him a sentence of praise, I am afraid that even the four times the three public officials of the Yuan Shao have to be pleasantly surprised by the smile on the face, fluttering also.

Yan Qing, however, is not a fan of these false names that can cause trouble for him in minutes, if it is placed on his lord, it can still make him happy for a while, but when it comes to himself, he really does not appreciate it, "Who knows about this?"

Guo Jia, however, gloated and continued to tease him, "Chongguang is so confident, why don't you first ask how brother Zizhuang commented on you?"

Just as he wished, Yan Qing threw his pretense of good temper out of the window, and said to him in a vicious voice, "If he despised me, why would he come here? The answer is obvious, why is Feng Xiao still asking with a bad heart!"

Thanks to him, he was happy for nothing, full of speculation that it was because of Lu Bu's good governance and his reputation was getting better.

Seeing that Yan Qingzhen is a bit annoyed, and really not curious about the content of those few comments, Guo Jia then wisely chose to see the end of the good, dashing and free to leave him behind, irresponsible skipped off to go.

As soon as he was out on the back foot, it wasn't long before the dusty and haggard Xu Shao was led in.

Even if you don't need those favorable comments, but in the end by the person in front of you hard to praise a pass, but also intends to draw in this sharp-eyed famous scholar, Yan Qing will not pose a state governor's official authority, but personally rise to welcome, kindly invited him to sit down: "I have long heard of the son of the great name, today I am fortunate enough to see, really elegant, the name is not false."

Yan Qing was born with the declining sun's rays in the west, and his temperament was also outstanding, and when he genuinely revealed a smile, even Jia Dang Guo Jia, who was well aware of his insidious and cunning nature, was inevitably blinded by the sensation of a spring breeze brought about by his vision.

Not to mention the days of driving before taking disciples and family members to successfully escape from the hindsight of Tao Qian's pursuers, when it is physically and mentally exhausted, but also on the Yan Qing preconceived with an excellent impression of Xu Shao.

Patiently complimenting each other and exchanging pleasantries for a few moments, seeing Xu Shao unable to hide his fatigue, Yan Qing thoughtfully and apologetically said: "Because I didn't know beforehand that Zi Shao would be coming, even if I had the intention to host a banquet, I'm afraid it would be rushed due to insufficient preparation. Seeing that you are so tired, it would be hard for me to be so insensitive as to keep you here, even if you are still interested in talking. Why don't you come to the residence first and rest for a few days, then allow Qing to treat you well, and clean up for you?"

When he thought of Tao Qian's furious arrest of the guests who had boarded him after learning of his escape, Xu Shao still had palpitations in his heart and did not want to run east and west any more.

Although he knew that what Yan Qing said was mostly polite, he was still touched, but also wisely refused, ""Shao uninvited, it is already rude, how can I be ashamed to trouble Chongguang, who has a lot of business to attend to? I'm not going to lie to you, now that the King of Han is young and surrounded by tigers, the world is destined to be in turmoil, and in order to protect my family, my children, and my disciples, I want to take refuge in Yangzhou under your rule, and I don't know if you'd be willing to take me in?"

Yan Qing guffawed, "There is no country bigger than the world, not to mention Zi generals such as the residence of the high sage and great talent, even a illiterate village boy, willing to travel thousands of miles to come under the jurisdiction of the Qing, but also the great fortune of the Qing, there is not a reason not to sweep the couch to welcome the reason?"

Immediately, he called someone in and arranged for shelter and servants to wait on him.

Yan Qing's warmth and politeness, and his adherence to the rules of modesty and retreat, and his promise of a sound, so different from Tao Qian's honeyed words, immediately put Xu Shao's mind at ease, and he thanked him, saying, "The country is in danger, and it is thanks to Chongguang's generosity in defending the country and loving the people that the people can have some solace! Shao now receives a great favor, although untalented, in the future only need Chongguang ask, will go through fire and water also have no hesitation."

"Qing only hates the fact that he is so weak, how can he afford a word of thanks?" Yan Qing shook his head, sighed softly, and then said in a leisurely manner, "I am ashamed to say that Qing is not worthy of the word. In terms of the great acts of kindness, righteousness and loyalty, Qing is not as good as Lord Fengxian by a long shot!"

In his original plan, it was to arrange for the Lord to go . □□ face, he will clip the gun and sing this black face, so as to take advantage of this moment when Xu Shao has just been frightened by Tao Qian.

Unexpectedly, Xu Shao had such a favorable impression of him, and trusted his character so much that there was no need to do more than that - I'm afraid that he didn't even need Lu Bu to personally show up to create the perfect first impression.

Yan Qing knew that Xu Shao would not judge him on the spot, even if he had been greatly favored and valued true virtue, he would not listen to one-sided words, but would personally examine and test them before making a final decision. But in this huge Yangzhou, after experiencing Yuan Shu's unreasonable plundering and Chen Wen's ineptitude, the people cherish the richness and comfort of the present, all of them miss Yan Qing and Lu Bu's favor, even if they catch a hundred people on the street, they will only praise them.

Even ordinary scholars, for the sake of libraries, academies and paper-making, would consciously accumulate a little bit of virtue.

In a long time not out of the jianghu Yan Qing make bragging watch, one-third is the true feelings, another one-third is the exposition of the facts, the last one-third is the hyperbole modification, oblivious to their own lord exaggerated to the sky, called Xu Shao also listened to the stunned time, do not remember Lu Bu is in the small hall.

It was audible now, and even the deep honeyed complexion couldn't keep the blush off his face.

It turned out that in Shigemitsu's mind, Bu was actually such an upright and noble person with a brilliant and grandiose personality?
