Zhao Xin thought that the most important thing now was to get a piece of land as soon as possible, but he had no name, no power, and no money. How should he get it? Zhao Xin paced in the room and thought that he couldn't get money quickly, let alone power. Right, with his reputation, he could easily get it with his knowledge and more than a thousand years of common sense. It seemed that he should discuss it with Xun You tonight. First, he would win Xun You over. Then, when his reputation was resounding and he had territory, with his understanding of the talents of the three countries, he would capture those who had not yet become officials. By then, who in the world could match him?
When Xun You came back in the evening, Zhao Xin asked him to have a secret talk in his room.
Zhao Xin went straight to the point,"Gongda, I want to achieve something. I hope Gongda can help Zhao Xin!" "
Xun You had been extremely impressed by Zhao Xin during this period of time. When he heard Zhao Xin say such words, he immediately understood Zhao Xin's intentions.
Xun You said,"How can I help you, Zicheng? Perhaps I should call Zicheng Lord." "
Zhao Xin said,"We'll talk about this later. Gongda, do you remember what Zhao Xin said that day? The world will be in chaos soon. Zhao Xin wants to take a place before that and then manage it until the right time." I want Gongda to help Zhao Xin become famous among the princes and nobles, fight for an official position, and then become the governor of a county or the ruler of a county. "
Xun You said,"With your talent, it is easy for you to make a name for yourself, but you still have to consider where to make your home. "
"Gongda's concern is very good." Zhao Xin whispered in his ear. I want you to do this for me.
Xun You said,"Don't worry, my lord. I will do my best and not delay my lord's important task." "
"I'm not used to the way you address me," said Zhao Xin."It's better to address me as before." "
"My lord," said Xun You,"you must distinguish between master and slave. "
Zhao Xin said,"Alright, it's up to you then. But don't call me that in front of outsiders." "
"You'll save me," replied Xun You. "
"Also, as far as Gongda knows, who are the talents that can be used by Xin? "Zhao Xin said.
Xun You replied,"My good friend Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao of Yingchuan are both from the same village. They are well versed in stratagems and worldly affairs. They can be of great use. If my uncle Xun-Xunwen had the ability to assist the king, he would have been very useful. "
Zhao Xin replied,"I have heard of these two men. Gongda, please help me get rid of them. If my plan is successful, I will go and ask them to leave the mountain." "
Thus, Zhao Xin waited for a few more days in Xun You's residence. During these few days, Zhao Xin desperately read the history books and the art of war.
One day, Xun You came to tell Zhao Xin that the matter was settled. Zhao Xin quickly prepared himself and followed him out. Today, Xun You brought Zhao Xin to visit the Cheji General Huangfu Song.
After entering Huangfu Song's residence, Zhao Xin and Xun You paid their respects to Huangfu Song and the three of them sat down.
From the moment Zhao Xin walked in, Huangfu Song could tell that this person was not simple. His gaze was firm and his actions were calm. He thought that this person was the so-called stalwart and extraordinary man.
Zhao Xin looked at Huangfu Song. He was about fifty years old and had a long beard that reached his chest, but he was very energetic. He thought that this person, Lu Zhi, and Zhu Juan had put down the Yellow Turban Rebellion together, and he really lived up to his reputation.
From Xun You's introduction, he said some flattering and humble words before slowly entering the main topic. The content of the conversation involved the art of war and military affairs. Zhao Xin could answer them fluently. Some of his insights even shocked Huangfu Song deeply. Xun You stood at the side, occasionally adding a sentence or two.
Gradually, Zhao Xin and Huangfu Song became more and more congenial. Zhao Xin also asked Huangfu Song many things about the military, and Zhao Xin's talent surprised Huangfu Song.
In the end, when Zhao Xin proposed to take Huangfu Song as his master, Huangfu Song was obviously surprised. However, he happily agreed after a while. Immediately, Zhao Xin told him that he would come back three days later to perform the ceremony of becoming his disciple. Huangfu Song smiled and sent them out.
During these three days, Zhao Xin was preparing gifts for his apprenticeship. Of course, the money was paid by the rich Xun You. At the same time, he was learning the etiquette of this era.
Three days later, Zhao Xin officially acknowledged Huangfu Song as his master. After that, he began to learn military and art of war from Huangfu Song. Not long after, recommended by Huangfu Song, Xun You helped Zhao Xin get through the back door of Zhang Rang, one of the Ten Generals. Zhao Xin immediately became a lieutenant in the North Camp of the Imperial Army.
In the days after he became his disciple, Zhao Xin and Xun You were planning how to make Zhao Xin famous in Luoyang. One day, Xun You's great-uncle Sima Xunshuang had a gathering of Luoyang officials and celebrities. Zhao Xin and Xun You ran over.
When he arrived, he saw that there were quite a number of people. There were many famous figures, such as Liu Tao, Huang Wan, Situ Chen Dan, Yuan Kui, and Cai Yong. What surprised Zhao Xin even more was that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were also there. When it came to introducing them, Xin Zhao couldn't help but be shocked. He almost stood there, his mind blank.
After sitting down, Zhao Xin began to carefully size up Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. Cao Cao had a square face, thin eyes, and a long beard. He was seven feet tall, and his eyes would occasionally flash. Yuan Shao was a little taller than Cao Cao, with thick eyebrows and a short beard under his chin. Looking at Cao Cao, Zhao Xin was extremely excited. He thought to himself that this was the future infamous treacherous prime minister Cao Cao. A thought flashed through his mind. If he could find an opportunity to kill Cao Cao, he would not know what the world would be like in the future. This thought tempted Zhao Xin, but he eventually gave up. If he killed Cao Cao now, the future situation would definitely be difficult for him to control. His greatest advantage was knowing the trend of history. As for Yuan Shao, Zhao Xin didn't really care about him. Although this person could dominate a region in the future, he wouldn't be able to achieve anything big.
At this moment, Cao Cao was also thinking,"This Zhao Xin, Zhao Zicheng, not only has a tall and sturdy body, but his eyes always contain an expression that shows that he has seen through the world. Moreover, when this person first saw us as officials, his expression was calm and he had a sense of propriety. He was really not simple." "
After the banquet began, everyone talked about some official matters and some interesting things in Luoyang. Zhao Xin only listened quietly from the side. However, Yuan Shao seemed to find Zhao Xin an eyesore. He thought to himself," My Yuan Family's four generations and three dukes are sitting together with such a nobody. I can't help but want to make Zhao Xin look bad." He shouted,"I heard Gongda say that Zicheng is outstanding in literary talent and has high attainments. There are many good people here. Why don't we spar? "
Zhao Xin couldn't help but secretly laugh in his heart. Yuan Shao, you're really tactful. I was just worried that I wouldn't have a chance, and you came knocking on my door. He looked at Xun You and smiled,"How dare I show off my skills in front of you seniors and great sages?" "
"What a 'show off in front of an expert'," Cao Cao praised loudly."From this, it can be seen that Brother Zicheng's literary talent must be excellent. We just wanted to see Zicheng's literary talent. Zicheng doesn't have to be modest. "
"Then I'll show you my embarrassment." He thought to himself,"Wait until I measure Boss Li Bai's wine in front of you. Then I'll see what kind of expression you have."
He stood up and stood in the middle of the crowd. He bowed and said,"I'll write a poem called 'I'm about to drink.'" "
" Don't you see that the Yellow River's water comes from the sky and flows into the sea without returning? Can't you see the bright mirror in the high hall grieve for my white hair? In the morning, it's like black silk turning into snow in the evening. "
After reading these two sentences, the hall burst into cheers. Xun You had already found a pen and paper and started to write it down.
Zhao Xin smiled slightly and continued,"Life must be full of joy, don't let the golden cup empty to the moon." Born Zhao Xincai must be useful, thousands of gold scattered will come back. "
When he read this sentence, the cheers were extremely high. Everyone had smiles on their faces and looked at Zhao Xin with anticipation. Even Yuan Shao, this petty person, lowered his head and pondered. Zhao Xin waited for them to calm down, thinking that he couldn't continue like this. He should finish reading in one breath.
So he continued,"To cook sheep and slaughter cattle for pleasure, you must drink three hundred cups at a time." "Master Cai, Sima Gong, please don't stop drinking." Cai Yong and Xun Shuang raised their cups and smiled slightly.
"I'll play a song with Brother Jun, please listen to it for me. Bells, drums and jade are not expensive, but I hope I won't wake up when I'm drunk. Since ancient times, sages have been lonely, only the drinker left his name. Meng once had a banquet in Pingle, a bucket of wine ten thousand wanton fun. The main reason is why I say that I don't have enough money, so I have to buy wine to drink with you. A five-streaked horse, a thousand gold fur coat, call my son out to exchange for good wine, and I will share the sorrow of the ages with you. "
He changed a few places in the poem. After reading it, everyone present cheered and praised loudly. Soon, Xun You wrote it out and everyone rushed to read it. Xun You looked at Zhao Xin with a fanatical gaze. Zhao Xin thought that this was not good. He had gone too far. Everyone at the banquet copied a copy and went back. It was really a little expensive, and Zhao Xin couldn't help but feel smug.
Zhao Xin did not bid farewell, but no one did. Everyone kept talking about this poem. Seeing that the sky was almost dark, Zhao Xin forcefully pulled Xun You to bid farewell. The group of people actually sent Zhao Xin out together, which made Zhao Xin feel flattered. When he arrived at the door, one asked Zhao Xin to go to his house for a meeting at some time, and the other asked Zhao Xin to drink and talk about poetry. Zhao Xin was really impatient.
Zhao Xin smiled bitterly, wondering if this guy was still Xun You and Xun Gongda, who were both extremely resourceful.
Not long after, Zhao Xin became famous throughout Luoyang because of this poem. In the following days, Zhao Xin kept attending meetings, which almost drained his energy. He had to receive people who came because of his reputation every day, making Xun You's small yellow family assistant minister residence crowded with people. In the end, he couldn't take it anymore, so he brought Taishi Ci and Dian Wei to live in the military camp.
During his days in the military camp, he had a rough understanding of the military establishment at this time. In Zhao Xin's eyes, the establishment at this time was worthless. There were actually no lower level officers. Thinking about it, it was also when Guan Yu and Liu Bei were on the plains. At that time, Liu Bei always had one or two thousand men under him, but Guan Yu was actually a horse archer who was nothing. Zhao Xin thought that he should wait until he had the strength to change this issue, so he led Taishi Ci and Dian Wei to train his troops. Xun You had spent a large sum of money to get Zhao Xin to be the Jianwu Commandant from Zhang Rang. At this time, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were only Commandants with 3,000 Imperial Army soldiers under them.
