Chapter Thirteen: Restaurant Encounter
Yuan Shu noticed that something was wrong with his son's mood, but Yuan Shu did not comfort him, but said directly: "Since Gong Jin and Ce'er have already joined the army, then Yao'er, I will give you a chance."
"Half a year, I'll give you half a year. If you can survive Ce'er's full attack for ten rounds during this half year, then I will also allow you to join and become a hundred-man general."
Yuan Shu's words were as calm as water, without any emotion.
Yuan Yao raised his head and looked at his father blankly.
After a long moment, he nodded firmly.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu on the other side also noticed Yuan Yao's reaction.
Sun Ce walked up and said carelessly: "Third brother, you have to work hard. I won't let you go when the time comes. Don't be unable to take three moves."
Yuan Yao jumped out of Yuan Shu's arms like a furry cat, pointing at Sun Ce's nose: "You barbarian, I will beat you to pieces when the time comes!"
Sun Ce didn't answer, turned his face with a disdainful expression, and made a light cut.
Zhou Yu smiled as he watched his stupid elder brother teasing his stupid third brother.
Yuan Shu also happily watched his sons quarreling and fighting without paying any attention to them.
Finally, Sun Jian couldn't stand it anymore: "You three brats, have you quarreled enough? If you have quarreled enough, continue training. Run two laps around Luoyang City. I will help you five laps. Go quickly!"
After hearing Sun Jian's words, the three of them immediately became obedient and ran out of the yard in a panic.
Yuan Shu was very satisfied with Sun Jian's reaction, and he should be stricter in disciplining boys.
But thinking about Sun Jian's words about running around Luoyang City twice, Yuan Shu couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his eye.
"Wentai, are you sure they can run around Luoyang City twice?"
Yuan Shu deeply doubted whether he had heard wrongly.
Luoyang City is about nine kilometers long and six kilometers wide, and a circle of at least thirty kilometers.
Even if the people in this world are physically very strong, it is impossible for such a small child to run two laps.
"Don't worry, my lord, the weight on Yao'er and Gongjin's bodies is only one hundred kilograms, and they should be able to hold on for more than half a circle. If they collapse in the end, Ce'er will carry them back."
Sun Jian said without caring.
Hearing this, Yuan Shu opened his mouth in surprise.
And the weight! A hundred kilograms of weight!
Oh my God! Son, what did you go through yesterday?
Thinking about Yuan Yao throwing himself into his arms with sparkling tears at that time, I just thought that he was a little unwilling and hated himself for being incompetent.
Now that I think about it, I cried because I was made worse than dead by what I probably experienced yesterday!
No wonder I felt that his body and emotions were a little strange at that time.
Yuan Shu looked at Sun Jian, who looked accustomed to it, with a dark look on his face.
I seriously doubt that my son may die not on the battlefield, but in the hands of this guy.
When Sun Jian saw Yuan Shu's strange eyes, he was also a little confused and touched his head at a loss.
Forget it, Wentai’s education method should be fine.
After all, none of his children died halfway through history, and all of them were extraordinary.
Yuan Shu comforted himself with this thought.
Suddenly, Yuan Shu saw at his feet the stick that Sun Ce and the others used to fight just now, and he reached over and tried to get it on the shelf on the side.
As a result, I pulled it gently, but it didn't pull, and I almost fell down and squatted down.
Oh My God!
Yuan Shu quickly used all his strength to pick up this seemingly ordinary iron rod.
"Wentai, what is this?"
"Oh, lord, this is an iron bar specially made by my subordinates for training. The one you are holding is used by Yao'er, and it weighs about fifty kilograms."
Yuan Shu could no longer complain.
Any iron rod is so magical! No wonder the little ghosts danced so hard at that time.
"What about Ce'er and Gongjin?"
"Gong Jin said it was one hundred catties, but because Ce'er is much stronger, the one he holds in his hand is two hundred and fifty catties."
My God!
Fortunately, the one at my feet was not the iron rod used by Sun Ce, otherwise I would have been in a big embarrassment.
Two hundred and five! I can only say that he is worthy of being the Little Overlord of Jiangdong!
"Okay, Wentai, we've almost finished chatting today, so I'll leave first."
"Lord, walk slowly."
After leaving Sun Jian's mansion, Yuan Shu stretched his waist and walked towards the street with great joy.
Behind him was Ji Ling who was still inseparable, while Xun You left first to sort out some information about Yangzhou and prepare to set off.
I habitually came to a restaurant where Yuan Shu often visited in the past.
I was about to open a private room upstairs for dinner when the waiter suddenly told me that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were in room No. 1 of Tianzi and asked me if I wanted to go.
In the past, as the three most handsome men in Luoyang City, the three of them often came to this restaurant to eat and chat together.
Now that we have encountered it, how can we avoid it?
Yuan Shu also wanted to personally see the historical overlords of Hebei and Emperor Wu of Wei.
Without the waiter leading the way, he went directly to the door of the room, asked Ji Ling to wait outside, and pushed the door open directly.
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were changing cups and cups, chatting about the past and the present. When they were chatting happily, they suddenly heard the sound of the door being pushed open.
Suddenly the two of them looked at the door with unhappy expressions.
When he saw it was Yuan Shu, his anger suddenly turned into joy.
"The highway is here just in time. Come and sit here."
Yuan Shu was not polite, he sat cross-legged on the ground, poured himself a glass of wine, raised his head and drank it all.
"Mengde, brother, what are you talking about?"
Yuan Shao smiled and said: "Mengde and I are talking about our respective ambitions."
"Oh? This is quite interesting, but I don't know what the ambitions of eldest brother and Meng De are?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Shu suddenly became interested.
But I don’t know what the current ideals of the two people who have not yet grown into princes are.
Cao Cao drank a glass of wine and stood up with high spirits: "My ambition is to be the general of the Han Dynasty in the Western Conquest. I will imitate the champions of the past, protect the border, sweep through the barbarians, and seal the wolf as a slave!"
Yuan Shao shouted: "Okay! Meng De is very ambitious. Now that the barbarians in the north are in chaos, it is a great opportunity for Meng De to make contributions."
Yuan Shu looked at the sincere and passionate patriotic young man in front of him with complicated eyes.
Cao Cao, who was known as a traitor in history, turned out to be such a loyal and patriotic man.
So how did Prime Minister Cao appear later who held the emperor hostage to order the princes?
Is it forced by the situation, or is it smeared by later generations, or can environment and status really change so much a person's temperament and ambition?
The Cao Cao in Yuan Shu's memory was once a very upright and patriotic young man.
He is loyal, upright and upright.
The memory of killing uncle Jian Shuo with a five-colored stick and stick that once made the capital famous is still fresh in his mind.
But it was these two things that caused Cao Cao to be transferred and exiled, and his official career has been bleak since then.
It was also from that time that Cao Cao became cunning.
He learned to be tolerant and ruthless, but what remained unchanged was his passion for serving the country.
After Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang and moved west to Chang'an, only Cao Cao pursued him for the sake of the Han Emperor.
Doesn't he know how powerful Dong Zhuo is?
Doesn't he know his own weakness?
Doesn't he understand that what he is doing is striking a stone with an egg and is extremely risky?
If he was really selfish, he wouldn't be so crazy to take this risk.
Because what if Emperor Han got it?
At that time, the eighteen princes were blocking Hulao Pass. So what if Cao Cao had the Han Emperor? He probably had to compromise and hand over the Han Emperor obediently.
Judging from the behavior of all the princes, we know that they all have selfish motives, and naturally they cannot let Cao Cao possess the Han Emperor.
The reason why he did this stupid thing was because Cao Cao was loyal to the Han!
Even if there is only a small chance, he is not willing to give up on recovering the great man!
In Yuan Shu's view, at least Cao Cao was an out-and-out loyal minister before his failure to challenge Dong.
