Jiushou's residence was located in the center of Ye City. It was not very big and did not match his status. However, he was relieved. It seemed that there was still a big difference between Jiushou and history.
In history, Cao Cao was not willing to kill Qiushou after he was defeated and captured. He even said," If I can get you early, there is nothing to worry about in the world." This made the other strategists under Cao Cao feel ashamed.
After Jiushou was captured, he tried to escape, but was killed by Cao Cao. In fact, from this, one could see the role of Jiushou. Cao Cao's life was based on the principle of loving talents. Even if Jiushou really wanted to escape, Cao Cao would not have the intention to kill him. It was because Cao Cao was afraid that Jiushou would go back and assist the Yuan family again, so he killed him. This also showed Cao Cao's fear of Jiushou.
" Fourth Master, please follow me." Just as the servant was about to bring Meng Yi inside to receive the gift, he had already come out to welcome him.
"Sir, it's really an honor for you to come."
"Commandant Qi is too polite. This Meng Yi is only a county's duty officer. How could I let Commandant Qi personally welcome me? I hope Commandant Qi can forgive me."
Meng Yi smiled faintly. His actions were sensible and reasonable, giving people a feeling of being bathed in the spring breeze.
This kid was indeed not simple.
Qiushou couldn't help but compare his son to Meng Yi, and found that the difference was like heaven and earth.
"Sir, please come in and offer tea." Ju Shou had a request, so he naturally wouldn't lose his manners.
The two of them sat on the ground in Ju Shou's study. There was a teapot beside them, which was steaming hot. It reminded Meng Yi of Cao Cao and Liu Bei's famous story of boiling wine to discuss heroes.
"Mister has moved to the Western Regions for several generations. I wonder if Mister can talk about the local customs of the Western Regions so that Ju Mou can see the outside world?”
When Meng Yi heard this, he thought to himself that this old fox was still obsessed with his origins.
In fact, the reason why he said he was from the Western Regions was to avoid being investigated. It was just to save trouble.
"The customs of the Western Regions are similar to those of the barbarians. I wonder if Commandant Qi has heard of the Persian Empire?”
"Persian Empire?" Qiushou frowned for a long time before he said,"I once heard that there is a country called Persia in the west of the Western Regions."
"Country?" "The Persian Empire has a population of tens of millions. It's located in the Western Continent, and it's a super empire that isn't weaker than our Great Han Empire." Meng Yi smiled.
"Really?"
Qiushou obviously didn't believe him. In his eyes, the Great Han Dynasty was the entire Central Plains, the entire world, and the rest were just barbarians.
"This is absolutely true. Back then, when the Imperial Emperor opened the Silk Road, he found out that there were other countries outside the Western Region. The world is so vast and boundless. To the west of the Persian Empire, there is another empire called Rome, and it's not any weaker than our Great Han Empire."
This time, Qiushou's brain was not enough.
Because he had never heard of such things since ancient times, he had no way to verify what Meng Yi had said. However, his intuition told him that it was probably true, because Meng Yi had no need to lie to him.
"I wonder how you learned about this?”
"At that time, I was young and had also gone to the Persian Empire."
Great Military Advisor Meng Yi began to make things up again. He matched his superb imagination with what Persia looked like in his mind.
Hearing this, Lord Chushou had a yearning look on his face.
"One day, I, Ju Shou, will definitely go and see the Persian Empire that you speak of."
"Alright, if there's still a chance, I'll definitely lead the way for Commander Qi."
Great Military Advisor Meng Yi's words pulled Qiushou back to reality from his fantasy. Qiushou originally wanted to test Meng Yi's background, but he didn't expect to fall into his trap.
Great Military Advisor Meng Yi's words had other meanings. If there was still a chance?
What was this?
As a top strategist in the world, how could Qiushou not know what Great Military Advisor Meng Yi meant?
Stop me if you don't want to die!
"Mister is extremely intelligent, but in my Jizhou, you are only a county scholar. You really have wasted your talent. In the future, I will definitely report to the provincial governor to hire you as the other driver of my Jizhou.”
Qiushou's words were also trying to recruit Meng Yi. Military Advisor Meng Yi found it funny. It seemed that his reputation was indeed growing.
"Jizhou is currently in a troubled period. My family's provincial governor is the Imperial Censor's Deputy, the former emperor's appointed Jizhou provincial governor. Now that the world is in chaos, Jizhou has many soldiers and generals, and is the wealthiest in the world.”Qiushou, this old fox, couldn't see through Meng Yi's thoughts and added fuel to the fire.
Meng Yi thought to himself, Why don't you take a look at what kind of person Han Fu is?
This Liu Bei was the famous Emperor Zhaolie of the Three Kingdoms. Of course, Meng Yi did not dare to say this now. No matter how useless Han Fu was, he was still the governor of Jizhou. Both he and Liu Bei were still under Han Fu.
"Commandant Qi only knows that the Provincial Governor is the Imperial Censor of the current dynasty and the Provincial Governor of Jizhou appointed by the former Emperor. However, he doesn't know that my County Governor is the descendant of Liu Sheng, King Jing of Zhongshan and the great-great-grandson of Emperor Xiaojing. He is a member of the Han clan and is respectful to the wise. He is loyal and generous and is a wise ruler of the world. Although his luck is bad, I believe that he will soar to the sky one day.”
If that was the case, Meng Yi would be able to do it now.
Qiushou was confused by Great Military Advisor Meng Yi's words.
Wasn't Big Ear Liu born to weave straw sandals? When did he become a relative of the Han royal family?
"Shh! Mister, you can't speak nonsense. Pretending to be a royal relative is a great crime of beheading. Mister, you can't speak nonsense."
Qiushou made a gesture to keep quiet, looking as if he was thinking for Meng Yi, which made Military Advisor Meng Yi want to laugh.
"Commandant Qi should know that Meng Yi is not a reckless person. Our county governor is indeed a descendant of the Han Emperor.”
Not only did Great Military Advisor Meng Yi not say anything, his voice became much louder. This time, even Jiushou was surprised. Meng Yi did not look like he was faking it. Could it be that Liu Bei was really a descendant of the Han Emperor? Regardless of whether it was true or false, Qiushou somewhat believed it.
"Oh, I didn't expect County Chief Liu to be a relative of the Han clan. It seems that I'm blind.""I wonder if Mister thinks Dong Zhuo can become a tyrant?”
Meng Yi was stunned when he heard that. Although this fat Dong was not a good person, he was still in charge of the government. If Meng Yi was good, he would have offended the world. If he was bad, he would not be able to offend this fat Dong. However, Great Military Advisor Meng Yi did not know anything else, but he was still good at playing Tai Chi and making things smooth.
"Meng Yi is just a nobody. How would he dare to talk about national affairs?”
" It's alright, Mister. I heard what you said, and no one else will know." Qiushou seemed to have noticed Meng Yi's dilemma and patted his chest.
"I'd be a fool to believe you."
Great Military Advisor Meng Yi felt a wave of slander in his heart and said,"Back then, the Ten Attendants of the Imperial Court controlled the government, General He was killed by eunuchs, and Dong Xiangguo led his troops into the capital. Only then did he manage to stabilize the Great Han Empire.”
