At the banquet, Governor Li Min introduced everyone.
Sun Ce felt a burst of heat from time to time as he listened!
Yingchuan Xun Clan! The descendants of Xun Zi, Xun Yu's clan!
Yingchuan's Chen family! Chen Qun was born in this big family!
Yingchuan Zhong Clan! Zhong Yao and Zhong Hui both came from this family! This was another big family that produced famous people for generations!
Yingchuan's Shi Family! Shi Tao came from this clan! This person might not be very famous, but his friends, such as Zhuge Liang, Cui Zhouping, and Meng Gongwei, were all legendary figures!
There was also the Yingchuan Xin family! Xin Ping and Xin Pi's family!
"These are all extremely valuable families! If he could collect them all in one net, he would not have to worry about not achieving great things in the future!”
Sun Ce almost drooled!
However, even though his idea was good, he could tell from the looks of those people that they were all arrogant. As a result, Sun Ce no longer had the mood to compliment them. He didn't even have the mood to raise his glass and drink with them.
Li Min could also tell that the other great clans didn't care much about Sun Ce. He also saw Sun Ce's dissatisfaction, so he felt awkward.
"Auntie, this place isn't suitable for us. Let's leave.”
Sun Ce pretended to be in low spirits, which immediately aroused the old lady's love.""Don't be sad. You're a general in the court. You don't have to look at their expressions!”
"Sigh, what a pity. I'm thirsty for talents now. If there are talents that I can use, I'll definitely befriend them!”
Xu Shu's mother couldn't help but sigh." My son, Xu Shu, has been smart since he was young. He should be able to help the general. Unfortunately, we don't know where he is now!"”
After the two of them bid farewell, they left the prefect's manor. However, an old man followed them in a low-key manner.
"General Sun, please wait!"
Sun Ce turned around and saw that it was Sima Hui, one of the few people at the banquet who didn't show any disdain towards him.
"General Sun, Yingchuan is home to many wealthy families. They are used to living a life of luxury. Even in today's world, they are all drunk and arrogant. However, I can see that not only do you have outstanding military achievements, you also have a benevolent heart that cherishes the people. If you are interested, why don't you come to my Yingchuan Academy tomorrow and have a chat?”
Yingchuan Academy!
Sun Ce suddenly remembered that the Dean of the Academy was Sima Hui.
Sima Hui had invited him to Yingchuan Academy. Wouldn't that mean that he could openly make friends with the talents there?
Xu Shu should be in the Academy. Sima Hui's invitation came at the right time!
"Since the old master has invited me, I will definitely go and have a chat!" Sun Ce immediately smiled.”
Sun Ce went back to his mansion with satisfaction, looking forward to the trip to the Academy tomorrow.
Sima Hui's heart was also surging. He was looking forward to tomorrow's meeting.
"Now that the world is in chaos, it's inevitable that heroes will rise in the future! Who among my students can meet a wise master? "Sun Ce is the person I think highly of, but unfortunately, his background is ordinary. None of those great clans think highly of him, and I'm afraid most of my students are the same…However, there might be more variables, who knows?”
Therefore, in order to prepare for the next day, he immediately called over a few of his proud students.
Soon, Xun Yu, Xun You, Chen Qun, Guo Tu, Xin Ping, Xin Pi, and Xi Zhicai walked in.
"Sir, why did you call us here?”As Sima Hui's favorite and closest student, Xun Yu immediately came up to ask.
Sima Hui stroked his beard and smiled." This old man is attending the banquet today to accompany the newly arrived Nan Zhonglang, Sun Ce. You are all descendants of great clans, so I'm sure you already know about this matter."”
Everyone shook their heads.
"Then, this old master would like to ask you what you think of Sun Ce…Wen Ruo, you can start with the introduction.”
Xun Yu was stunned for a moment before he smiled." There's nothing much to say. Sun Ce destroyed the Xianbei outside the Great Wall, helped Huangfu Song out of trouble in Changshe, and now he saved Yingchuan. He's indeed a good general." However, that was all there was to it. Without the support of the family and the help of old disciples, it was not enough to achieve great things.”
Xun You also said," A person without a foundation, even if you think highly of his courage, you can't even marry him. He's destined to be isolated and helpless. Once he makes any mistakes, he'll be beaten back to his original state.”
Sima Hui then looked at Chen Qun and asked,"What about you?" What do you think of this person?"
"A martial artist, there's nothing worth evaluating." Chen Qun said disapprovingly.”
The others were also cold and disdainful.
However, the errand boy who was serving tea and water to them had a strange look on his face when he heard what they said. It was as if he did not care about them.
Sima Hui noticed his expression, so when he asked everyone to leave, he stopped the errand boy.
Sima Hui closed the door and whispered something inside. The people who walked out did not know what Sima Hui and the errand boy said. They only saw that when the errand boy came out, he was like a spring breeze and had a happy expression.
Chen Qun then approached Xun Yu and curiously pointed at the errand boy and asked,""Who is this errand boy? Why was he able to have a private conversation with the dean? It was the secret code to close the door! Look at how smug he was when he came out!”
Xun Yu shook his head." I don't know. I don't know any famous people in Yingchuan. Maybe he's just a poor student. Otherwise, he wouldn't have served us tea."”
"Humble Class?" Everyone immediately lost interest and could not be bothered to pay attention to the errand boy anymore.
