The Fourth Round (2)
There was Zhuge Liang in literature and Huang Zhong in martial arts. They became the basic team for Jin Xuan's grand plan. There were still many talents on Jin Xuan's recruitment list. Jin Xuan's ability to predict the future came from the heroes in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Due to his understanding of Zhuge Liang in the past few days, his worries about his name were dispelled. Romance of the Three Kingdoms was more accurate in remembering the names of famous people, but the age of the characters and the time of the events did not match the reality. The transmigration of Jin Xuan could also change many people and things in this time and space.
Jin Xuan arrived in Xuzhou along the Lujiang River and Shouchun. When he heard that Qiao Xuan was the prefect of Puyang, he decided to take a detour to Puyang. Jin Xuan did not regard Qiao Xuan as a great talent in his heart, but Qiao Xuan's two daughters were famous for their later generations. They were the famous Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao. (Some people are not convinced. Aren't Big Qiao and Little Qiao in Jiangnan? Why did he come to Jiangbei? Hehe, Qiao Xuan, the elder of the Qiao Kingdom, retired in Puyang and settled down in River East.）
Puyang prefect's house, Jin Xuan handed over the name card to see. Qiao Xuan went out and did not return. His younger brother Qiao Mao came out to meet him. The two brothers were both talented. It was recorded in the history books that Qiao Xuan retired due to illness and elected Qiao Mao to replace him as prefect. The world suspected that Qiao Xuan had selfish motives. Qiao Xuan said,"You don't avoid relatives when you raise talents." Later, Qiao Mao was indeed outstanding. The affairs of the whole county were in good order. People began to believe that Qiao Xuan was selfless.
After taking a seat, Jin Xuan went straight to the point."I came today to hear that the two daughters of Governor Qiao are beautiful and virtuous, so I came to propose marriage.”
Qiao Mao looked at Jin Xuan in surprise and said,""Mao will definitely tell my brother about this. However, why did the dragon come thousands of miles away?”Jin Xuan had an idea and remembered that the ancients paid attention to the divination of the Book of Changes. He replied,"Xuan's master is Mister Mingjing, who is proficient in the Book of Changes. I predict that Xuan will be very noble in the future, but I need your help. And your niece and Li Xuan have a long-term marriage. As the saying goes, a thousand miles of marriage is tied by a thread. So I took the liberty to come and ask for your help.”
A profiteer was indeed a profiteer. His ability to adapt to the situation was high, right? He even sold his teacher in.
"My brother is very important to the family.”Qiao Mao saw that Jin Xuan's character was elegant, his face was like jade, and he did not have a weak air, so he could not help but have a good impression of him. However, he understood Qiao Xuan's temperament, so he kindly told Jin Xuan. "Although I am a white body, I will definitely accomplish something in this trip to the capital. Soon after, he thought that he had the ability to help the world. If he could get an inch of promotion, he would certainly become a dignitary.”If his words didn't shock people to death, he would first make Qiao Mao pay attention to it.
"My brother is out on business today and will only return in the evening. How about we discuss this matter tomorrow when Long Teng personally sees my brother?”Qiao Mao heard that Jin Xuan's payback was not small and had great ambitions. He felt that talent was rare. However, this matter required Qiao Xuan to nod his head and set a time to meet with Jin Xuan. Jin Xuan saw that the matter had progressed and bid farewell.
Puyang City was located in the Central Plains. It was a prosperous place, much more lively than the Wu Ling County. It was almost noon, Jin Xuan walked towards the restaurant. There weren't many people in the restaurant. There was a handsome scholar who stood out like a crane in a flock of chickens and was particularly eye-catching.
"Mister, you are a dragon and phoenix among people. You must be a famous person. May I know your name?”Upon seeing this person, Jin Xuan felt a sense of appreciation and stepped forward to salute. "I'm Guo Jia. "May I ask who you are?" Guo Jia returned the greeting.
"Wuling Golden Whirlpool. It's fate that we met. How about we drink a few cups together?”When Jin Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. Guo Jia was Cao Cao's number one strategist, but unfortunately, he died young. After Cao Cao's defeat at Red Cliff, he said,"If Fengxiao was still here, how could he have lost?" This showed how much importance Cao Cao placed on Guo Jia. Later, there was a poem praising Guo Jia, saying,"Born to be Guo Fengxiao, a hero among the heroes: In the belly is the sutra history, in the chest conceals the armor weapon; His strategy is like Fan Li's, and his decision-making is like Chen Ping's. It is a pity that he died first, and the beam of the Central Plains collapsed.”However, according to the historical records, Guo Jia should only be in his teens. (The younger Zhuge Liang was already an adult, so there was no need to make a fuss.）
Jin Xuan saw such a great sage, how can he let go, invited Guo Jia to drink to discuss things. Guo Jia originally had the intention of choosing a master for this study tour, but seeing Jin Xuan's knowledge and perspective, he couldn't help but be moved. After Jin Xuan repeated the words that he had used to convince Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia was immediately convinced and called him his lord. Guo Jia surrendered, and Jin Xuan was overjoyed to see that his talent was not inferior to Zhuge Liang. He drank and chatted with Guo Jia. It was already time to light the lamp. The two were drunk.
The next day, he got up and remembered that he had to go to the Qiao Estate to propose marriage. He dressed up neatly and called Guo Jia to accompany him as he rushed to the Qiao Estate.
Qiao Manor. "Jin Xuan and Guo Jia are here to see you.”
When Qiao Xuan returned yesterday, he had heard Qiao Mao talk about Jin Xuan's marriage proposal. However, Jin Xuan was not a famous scholar nor did he have an illustrious background, so he wanted to meet him. However, Qiao Mao strongly recommended this person, saying that he was elegant in his speech and had great ambitions. He was definitely not a person in the pool, so he couldn't help but feel a little curious. After thinking for a long time, he finally decided to meet her.
After the ceremony, there were more than ten Puyang celebrities present. Qiao Xuan had specially invited them to accompany him to test Jin Xuan's talent.
Qiao Xuan asked,"I heard that Long Teng (Jin Xuan) is a disciple of Mr. Mingjing. Is he a Shibin?"”
Jin Xuan was secretly delighted. Could it be that they were going to take a poetry examination? Then he would have to thank everyone in the Tang and Song Dynasties. He replied confidently,"Let's try it for now."”
Qiao Xuan thought for a moment and said,"Please recite a poem about this matter, this season, and this heart."”
Jin Xuan stood up and walked a few steps. After thinking for a while, he said,""Spring Thoughts, swallow grass like green silk, Qin mulberry low green branches. When you come back, it's time for me to break my heart. I don't know you in the spring breeze. Why do you enter the curtain?”Jin Xuan presented Mr. Li Bai's masterpiece.
When everyone heard this, no one thought that it would be plagiarism. They thought that Jin Xuan was quick-witted and had created his own poetry genre. It was not limited to one style and was catchy. They could not help but cheer in unison.
"Please use Shi Bin to show your ambition." Qiao Xuan said again.
"Drunk, I light a lamp and watch the sword. Eight hundred miles under his command, fifty strings turn the sound of the Great Wall. on the battlefield, autumn draws troops. The horse galloped like a precious colt, and the bow was like a thunderbolt. To finish the king's affairs in the world, to win the name of life and death. It's a pity that it happened for nothing!" He made a simple change to Xin Qiji's masterpiece, and the aura of a weapon instantly rose.
……
"Good, Long Teng's thoughts are nimble, and he has weapons in his chest. In the future, he will definitely be famous and have great achievements.”After a few rounds of research, Qiao Xuan began to love talents. "I heard that Long Teng is skilled in both literature and martial arts and rarely meets opponents. Today, the famous martial artist from Hebei, Jiang Yiqu, is in my residence. I invite the two of you to spar so that everyone can broaden their horizons."”After that, the group of people went to the training field in the back garden.
The one who came down was a strong man, thirty-two or thirty-three years old. He cupped his fists and saluted,"Hebei Jiang Yiqu, please guide me."
"Please." Jin Xuan returned the greeting with cupped fists.
The two of them exchanged punches and kicks. In less than ten moves, Jin Xuan used a clever move and kicked Old Jiang out of the circle. Old Jiang was not convinced and compared weapons again. In less than three rounds, Jin Xuan used the unique skill "Chain Knife" taught by Huang Zhong. The saber slashed sideways, and Old Jiang Hou blocked it with his spear. He borrowed the force from Old Jiang's force and turned the blade, sending the spear in Old Jiang's hand flying. The blade quickly turned and was placed at Old Jiang's neck. Jiang Yiqu had wanted to seek a future in Puyang, but he had lost face. He stomped his feet and turned to leave without saying goodbye.
"Long Teng is a great talent. It's my family's blessing to have you as my son-in-law. "But Long Teng has no official position now, this..." Qiao Xuan saw that Jin Xuan was outstanding in talent, both civil and military, and had a bright future. He had already made plans in his heart and slowly said this on the way to the living room.
Jin Xuan knew that Qiao Xuan was particular about matching social status, so he said,""Father-in-law, please rest assured. After entering the capital to seek a position, if you don't get a county within a year, this marriage will be considered to be abandoned.”
At the Qiao family banquet. During the banquet, Qiao Xuan asked Jin Xuan where he had gone, and Jin Xuan told him the truth. After Qiao Xuan heard this, he said," I have two good friends. One is surnamed Cai and the other is surnamed Wang. Both of them are important ministers of the current dynasty. Your son-in-law, take my letter and go. Perhaps you can get twice the result with half the effort.”
Jin Xuan was overjoyed and immediately thanked him. (Little brother is really lucky. Cai Wenji, Diao Chan, you must pay attention.)）--
