That day.
In the Minister's Residence.
After two hours of conversation.
"Fengxiao has already said what he should say."
"Prime Minister is thirsty for talents, please reconsider!”
"Pardon me for being blunt, but you are only thirty-five years old, the peak of your talent. In today's world, there are bandits everywhere and the people are in dire straits.”
"Your talent and ambition have been buried by your narrow and foolish loyalty. You have let down the common people, the world, and your identity as a scholar.”
Guo Jia stood up and said goodbye.
He left in an incomparably carefree manner.
Xun Yu fell silent.
Xun Yu was thin, with proper facial features, thick eyebrows, and big eyes. He had the typical temperament of a scholar. Guo Jia's words touched him deeply.
Cao Ang massacred Xuchang Palace.
Xun Yu was also one of the ministers present.
He would never forget Cao Ang's imposing manner. The scene of Liu Xie killing Dong Cheng was like a thorn in Xun Yu's heart.
A few days ago.
In the court.
Xun Yu, as the official, was placed in the front row of the courtiers.
The closer he was to Cao Ang, the more he had the illusion that Cao Ang was the real Son of Heaven, compared to the cautious and cautious Son of Heaven. His elegant demeanor had deeply shocked Xun Yu.
At this moment.
"What are you hesitating for?"
A scholar in his forties walked in.
Xun You is Xun Yu's nephew.
However, he was six years older than Xun Yu.
Xun Yu was steady, upright and rigid.
Xun You was more like Guo Jia. He was well-read in military books and was the most resourceful and flexible.
Guo Jia only came to talk to Xun Yu, but not Xun You. He knew that Xun You did not need to be persuaded. He would definitely join the lord.
"I know that you have made a great wish to help the Han Dynasty.”
"But Tian Zi, you saw it yourself. Do you think he can pacify the chaotic world?”
"Fengxiao is right. The world is in chaos now, and the people are in dire straits. There are starving people everywhere, and countless lives are lost every day.”
"Confucius and Mencius once said,'The people are the most important, the state is second, and the monarch is the least important.' Helping the Han Dynasty is only a small benevolence and righteousness. Helping the people of the world at dawn is a great benevolence and righteousness. If we give up the big and take the small and put the cart before the horse, wouldn't it violate the destiny?”
Xun Yu was touched.
He glanced at Xun You,"You seem to have thought it through."”
"That's right. The First Emperor destroyed the six countries and won the world. Emperor Gaozu destroyed Qin and Chu and won the world. The 400-year fate of the Han Dynasty had come to an end. Prime Minister Cao had the appearance of Emperor Gaozu of Qin Dynasty. He wanted to use his life's knowledge to assist the emperor.”
He sighed.
Xun Yu slowly stood up.
He tidied his clothes and walked out.
"Where are you going?" Xun You asked.
"Where else can we go?" Xun Yu asked. Let's go pay our respects to the Prime Minister!"
Xun You was overjoyed. Had his blockhead uncle finally been enlightened?
In fact, Xun You understood Xun Yu's obsession very well. Even Cao Cao would find it difficult to make him let go of this obsession, but Cao Cao's young son, Cao Ang, did it.
This was not only because Xun Yu was too disappointed with the current emperor.
Moreover, Xun Yu recognized Cao Ang and even surpassed Cao Cao.
…………
The Prime Minister's Estate.
Cao Ang was flipping through a book.
Cao Ang listened to Guo Jia's suggestion and decided to postpone the attack.
According to historical knowledge, there was a great drought in the autumn of the second year of Jian 'an.
There were disasters everywhere.
Jianghuai is the most serious.
That happened to be Yuan Shu's territory.
The drought caused the farmers to lose their crops. From the Jianghuai region to the Central Plains, people were starving to death everywhere. Cannibalism could be seen everywhere. Hundreds of thousands of people starved to death. At the same time, bandits rose everywhere and countless refugees.
He had the advantage of being a prophet.
Cao Ang naturally planned to do something.
The natural disaster was an opportunity for Cao Ang.
If they could recruit the refugees from the famine, not only would they gain a good reputation, but they could also quickly expand their troops. However, providing relief to the refugees required a large amount of food.
Food was the most important strategic resource in the war-torn era. From the countryside to the aristocratic families, everyone had their pockets tightly covered. It was definitely a thankless task to buy food from them.
Send Cao Yi?
This guy was ruthless and unscrupulous.
He would definitely cause the families of the rich and powerful to be destroyed and obediently offer food.
As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, Cao Ang rejected it. He was someone who wanted to do great things. He couldn't do such a short-sighted thing for a bit of food.
It was fine to take grain from the big families.
However, he had to use proper methods.
From now on, when the drought broke out, they should be able to gather a large amount of food and grass, at least to help a small portion of the disaster victims.
"Looks like we don't have enough manpower!"
"I'll just hire one or two more people to help!"
Cao Ang had around 3,000 Fate.
It was not a problem to draw two ordinary Heroic Souls.
"You have obtained the Heroic Soul of Shen Kuo!"
"Received Jia Sixie's Heroic Soul!"
Cao Ang couldn't help but be stunned when he received these two Heroic Souls.
The two of them were neither famous officials nor generals. They were both special talents.
Shen Kuo was from the Song Dynasty. He had written works such as Dream Stream Pen Talks and Good Recipes. He was the most all-rounded scientist in ancient China. He had made considerable achievements in mathematics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, geography, water conservancy, medicine, economy, and art.
He was known as China's Da Vinci.
Jia Sixie was from the Northern Wei Dynasty and was the prefect of Gaoyang. His work, Qi Min Yao Shu, was the earliest and most complete agricultural encyclopedia in the later generations of the Celestial Dynasty.
Jia Sixie's political and military abilities were average, but he had a deep understanding of agriculture and production. He had a very high understanding and understanding of farming, grains, vegetables, fruit trees, trees, livestock, brewing, and seasoning.
Cao Ang was overjoyed.
He lacked all kinds of talents now.
The two of them weren't the talents Cao Ang urgently needed.
Not famous officials like Xiao He, Zhang Liang, or Shang Yang.
However, one was engaged in scientific research and the other was engaged in production, which could make up for Xuchang's shortcomings in this area.
At the same time.
Another system notification sounded in his mind.
"Host has consumed more than 10,000 karmic luck.”
"The function of the mall has been unlocked. Please check it in time.”
"The system…has automatically upgraded?" Cao Ang muttered.”
