"Everyone, scholars and scholars from all over the world, high officials and dignitaries, it has been a long time since we last met.”
"This year is a year of chaos and disaster. Of course, there are also gods who descended from the sky to quell the disaster. The first person we're going to talk about today is probably familiar to everyone.”
Xu Jing and Xu Shao echoed each other. Xu Zhen was quite happy to watch from the side. It was a little like the De Society. It was even cadenced. The words that came out of his mouth were very attractive.
"This god and Sikong Cao Cao opened up Yanzhou during this year's disaster. They helped the people and gathered the current generation's miracle doctors, allowing the people to survive.”
"Oh? Then what should I use?" Xu Jing asked.
" Merit," Xu Shao said with a smile.
"Only merit can show this lord's talent.”
"I believe that everyone should have guessed who it is by now.”
"That's right, it's our Xu Zhen, Lord Xu."”
"Lord Xu was originally from Hebei, but he also came to Yanzhou to take refuge. His talent was discovered by Cao Gong, so he was able to display it. Therefore, I have to praise Cao Gong for his insight. No one in the world can surpass him…"
"The comment that we brothers gave was that he was a literary song in a chaotic world and a banished immortal who had descended to the mortal world.”
A banished immortal…
Xu Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and his expression immediately turned bitter.
Motherf * cker! No matter how much he thought, he did not expect this comment!!! He was too good at bragging!
She was blown into a banished immortal!
Guo Jia nodded." It's fair. Your Excellency deserves such a comment."”
Xu Zhen turned his head and said," I'm only on good terms with Boss Cao. If I'm not on good terms with him, I'll be dead. Do you believe me?"”
"I believe you."
Guo Jia nodded seriously.
……
After talking for more than ten minutes, Xu Zhen did not pay much attention to it after listening.
At this moment, he noticed a middle-aged man with a big beard under a big tree to the side.
He immediately took a closer look.
Cao Cao…
Why is Boss Cao here?
Moreover, it felt like it was coming in secret.
He was dressed in ordinary clothes, and the place he was standing at was also quite hidden. Only Xu Zhen could see him. Cao Cao noticed Xu Zhen's gaze and smiled as he greeted him. He even made a "yeah" gesture.
This gesture was taught to him by Xu Zhen. It represented the joy and pride in his heart.
" This Old Cao…" Xu Zhen pursed his lips and didn't expose his location.
Presumably, he was only here to listen to the Xu brothers 'comments.
Guo Jiawen's voice was as calm as the surface of a lake." The reopening of the monthly review this time is actually based on talent. Your Excellency, you have convinced Xu Jing and Xu Shao. In fact, you have already helped Cao Gong quite a bit. However, there are indeed many people coming from the south and north.”
"Look, that person's aura is steady, and the patterns on his clothes are different from others. There are barbarian embroidery, so he's probably a guest of Sichuan.”
Guo Jia pointed at another person.
"That person was wearing a jade pendant, not a sword tassel or a sachet. The north doesn't like to wear it. These are probably the followers of Liu Biao or Yuan Shu in Yangzhou.”
"Although the Moon Festival is a gathering of scholars, the true hermits are still waiting for the right price.”
"So people who are truly like true dragons are not among them." Guo Jia said indifferently.”
Xu Zhen quite agreed with these words.
Therefore, they were just there to watch the show. Even Boss Cao only asked for a comment back then, just like how he received the " admission notice." However, the Xu brothers had nothing to do with their true abilities.
The effect of their " media " was just publicity.
"Hey, now that you mention it, I've thought of a way to make money.”
"I'm willing to hear the details."
"Selling!"
Xu Zhen smiled.
……
The monthly evaluation was still ongoing. Not many people knew of Cao Cao's arrival. However, after Xu Zhen, many of the people evaluated by the Xu brothers had lost their fairness. They were either not as good as Xu Zhen or they were not well-known. No one knew what was going on.
This made the two of them feel anxious on the bridge. This was all because of Lord Xu's reputation…it was already too high.
Even among those aristocrats who valued the benefits of Confucianism, no one could compare to them.
Fortunately, it was about to end.
"The person we are going to talk about next is a rising star.”
"Another rising star?"
"And it's the finale…How could this be?”
" Lord Xu actually didn't make the finale. As the saying goes,'throw a brick to attract jade'. But the Xu brothers have miscalculated. What they are throwing is clearly jade…"
However, it attracted a pile of bricks.
No matter what the Xu brothers said or how they described him as a young genius, they were all so pale and powerless.
"This person is the son of Grand Marshal Yang Biao, Yang Xiu.”
"Ai, his name is Dezu. According to our understanding, the villagers have long regarded Yang Dezu as a genius. He has a photographic memory for reading and is proficient in poetry. At the age of thirteen, he can already see through the world's major events.”
"Such a person can be summarized in one word," said Xu Jing.”
"Which one?" Xu Shao asked.
"The root is red."
……
For a moment, all the scholars were stunned.
There was nothing else to say.
"Isn't this contradictory to talent?”
"Disappointing. This month's review is actually like this? Could it be that Grand Marshal Yang Biao was beating them up from behind, so the Xu brothers were hindered by the dignitaries…"
"If that's really the case, I'm afraid that the Great Han…sigh…"
Many people sighed. These Confucian scholars were not mediocre people. Those who could come here and were interested in the monthly review all had their own opinions.
And this year was a very rare time when they had no objections to any of the finale characters.
However, Lord Xu wasn't among the finale.
"However, Lord Xu is now the finance minister. How noble is he? I'm afraid he doesn't care about this."
"Naturally."
If he were to forcefully elect them, wouldn't it also give others a false excuse?
Sima Yi, who was hiding in the dark, thought of something but did not show it. His expression became more and more humble.
As for Liu Bei, he was stroking his beard, his hands clasped behind his back. He was already in a daze.
"I see…I see.”
He muttered a few words and no longer spoke.
Cao Cao nodded his head from afar.
He said to Zhang Liao beside him,"As expected of Yixuan. This move is too wonderful."”
Zhang Liao didn't understand. Although he was smart, most of his methods were military warfare. He had nothing to say about the conflict between scholars.
"My lord, what do you mean?"
Cao Cao said,"Wenyuan, Yixuan's wisdom is far beyond yours. You have to learn more."”
"Of course. Otherwise, how could I have been captured?" Zhang Liao said indifferently.”
Cao Cao laughed at him and liked Zhang Liao more and more. This person's temperament, martial arts, and leading troops in battle were all excellent.
However, he really wasn't captured by a resourceful person.
Chen Gong thought highly of him and thought that Xu Zhen was a Confucian scholar who would be reasonable and abide by the rules. He accompanied Xu Zhen to lobby, but he was beaten up and arrested.
In the end, they surrendered.
"Xu Zhen's method has almost ruthlessly defeated Yang Biao. He raised Yang Xiu to be the finale, but he didn't make any contributions. If this is the case, how can these Humble Class disciples not be angry?”
Cao Cao was instantly relaxed." As expected of Yixuan. Even I couldn't think of such a vicious plan!" No, it should be a brilliant plan."
Zhang Wenyuan also nodded and looked deeply at Xu Zhen's side profile.
……
At this moment, Xu Zhen suddenly whispered," Oh no!"," F * ck, I'm doing this. Am I accidentally harming Yang Biao…"
Guo Jia was beside him, so she heard him clearly. She turned around strangely and stared at Xu Zhen for a long time before saying,"Didn't Milord think so? This is a brilliant plan."
Xu Zhen smacked his lips and said," What? Don't imagine it…I just don't want to be too famous…"
