Chapter 193 Yang Biao, who is arrogant and proud
"Father, why did you ask me to lead my tribe to Jiangdong to join my uncle? Although Liu Xie is dead, aren't everything still under our control?" Yang Xiu was very confused about being sent to Jiangdong.
"Liu Xie's death caught us off guard this time. We can't guarantee whether there will be other accidents in the future. I sent you to Jiangdong to preserve the family and leave a way out." Yang Biao said seriously.
"But why Jiangdong? It's difficult to conquer the world by raising troops in the south. Can't your father understand such a simple truth?"
Yang Biao looked at his talented but arrogant son and sighed.
"Dezu, you think too simply."
Seeing the disappointment in Yang Biao's eyes, Yang Xiu was filled with dissatisfaction.
When it comes to status and identity, he has always been superior among his peers. When it comes to wisdom, he is not inferior to anyone, but why does his father always have a disappointed attitude towards him?
Little did he know that it wasn't that Yang Biao looked down on him, but that he knew his son too well. He was born in a famous family and had a smooth life. He was very smart, but his character flaws were too obvious, and most of them were just small cleverness, and he couldn't see the general trend clearly.
Yang Biao sent him out not only to leave a way out, but also to protect his son.
If he could endure it according to Yang Biao's plan, his son would definitely not be able to bear it, and he would most likely die because of his cleverness.
So it's safe to leave this stupid son to a reliable brother-in-law like Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu's temperament is very familiar to Yang Biao. Although he is a little confused at first, he really values love and justice. Even now Yuan Shu still doesn't change.
This kind of nature.
Why did Yang Biao choose to befriend Yuan Shu instead of Yuan Shao? On the one hand, it was because Yuan Shu was the legitimate son of the Yuan family, and on the other hand, he saw that befriending Yuan Shao was of no use, and befriending Yuan Shu was the truly reliable choice.
Although Yuan Shao is better than Yuan Shu in all aspects and can be called a great talent and strategy, he is unsympathetic and unjust, and it is useless to have a good relationship with him. As long as you are useful to him, he will hold you high, but once you lose your value
Or if it arouses his dissatisfaction and jealousy, he will throw you to the ground hard.
From the perspective of the entire Yang family, it makes no sense whether or not to marry this kind of person. Just stay neutral and maintain your own attitude and integrity. Relying on the strength and network of the Yang family, you cannot suffer any loss.
This is what the Yang family did to Cao Cao in history. Although they often opposed some of Cao Cao's practices, they did not do anything wrong, which made Cao Cao hate them but could not do anything. In the end, Cao Cao had no choice but to find a
Yang Biao dismissed him from his official post on the pretext that he was related to Yuan Shu, and he was later released and still held the post of Taiwei.
This guy is the only person from aristocratic family who can make Cao Cao hate him so much but can't do anything about it. But what happens in the end? Even if Yang Xiu dies and Yang Biao gets old, after Cao Cao dies, the Yang family will continue to prosper.
Therefore, for a very rational hero like Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, relying on connections is not reliable. It is better to just stay calm and not show your face, and just endure this guy to death.
But it's different for a bastard like Yuan Shu who has a clear distinction between love and hatred. If you treat him well, he will treat you better. Only by investing in this kind of person can you get greater returns. Although this guy's character is difficult to achieve, after all,
The old Yuan family has a profound foundation, and it is not impossible to dominate the world.
Like Sun Ce, why was he able to make a fortune and conquer the territory of Jiangdong? In addition to Sun Ce's bravery in battle, it was because Yuan Shu missed his old friendship and felt indebted to Sun Jian. Most of his territory was handed over to the Sun family for management, and he trusted them extremely.
.
Who could be a normal lord and do such a thing? If his subordinates rebelled, most of his territory would be lost. As expected, Sun Ce rebelled and took away half of his subordinates' territory and supplies.
Yuan Shu in history was not a good protagonist, but he was indeed a loyal and friendly person. To put it simply, he was a chivalrous man with a straightforward personality and a flawed brain.
"Dezu, who do you think has the potential to dominate the world?" Yang Biao asked calmly.
"Yuan Shao!" Yang Xiu replied without hesitation.
"Why?" Yang Biao smiled slightly.
"The three heroes of the Central Plains are fighting for food. It will definitely be difficult to achieve results within a few years. Even if they are unified, their vitality will be greatly damaged. Jiangdong is more than enough to separate itself, but not enough to fight for hegemony. Guanzhong has also declined. The other princes are just mediocre people, and only Hebei is the center of the world.
.”
"And Yuan Shao occupies the most elite place in Hebei, Jizhou. It has a large population, sufficient food and grass, and the reputation of the Fourth and Three Dukes, and has countless capable ministers and generals under his command. It is also close to the two states, and there is no shortage of war horses. Once Hebei is unified, it will basically be
The victory was established.”
"The only opponent is Gongsun Zan. However, Gongsun Zan is brave enough but not wise enough. He can be a handsome and fierce general, but he is not good enough to dominate the world and compete with Yuan Shao."
"So I think Yuan Shao is most likely to dominate the world!" Yang Xiu said this with great confidence.
Yang Biao nodded. Although there were still some flaws in what Yang Xiu said, it was basically pretty good. Yang Biao actually thought so too.
"Then do you know what kind of person Yuan Shao is?"
"He is tolerant, well-organized, and can express his emotions and anger without expressing his emotions."
This is Yuan Shao in Yang Xiu's heart, and it is also Yuan Shao in the eyes of many scholars in the world. He is perfect and basically a model of Mingzhu.
Yang Biao sighed lightly: "You only saw Yuan Shao on the bright side, but you didn't see his essence and shortcomings."
The person who knows you best may not be you yourself, but your opponent. Yang Biao, who has been secretly intrigues and competing with the Yuan family for decades, knows very well about Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others who are the outstanding disciples of the Yuan family.
"Yuan Benchu seems to be generous, but he is actually conceited, narrow-minded, and scheming. As you said, this person has the highest possibility of winning the world, but this person is not worthy of the support of my Yang family."
"The relationship between our Yang family and him has always been very bad. In addition, this person has a small belly and chicken intestines. He will never tolerate my Yang family. If he goes there, he will be exploited and suppressed."
"On the contrary, although your uncle Yuan Shu is a bit stupid, he is a true-hearted person and will definitely treat you well. With the land of Jiangdong, let alone unifying the world, it is still impossible to separatist forces safely.
It’s a problem! Once the situation has been decided, you can’t go back to the other side.”
Yang Xiu was stunned for a moment, then he realized what he was doing, and said with a slightly blushing face: "Father, it's your foresight that matters."
"Dezu, you have been smart since you were young, and few of your peers can compare with you. But remember, you must not be arrogant or overly arrogant. The reason why our Yang family can become a family on par with the Yuan family is because of
Be modest and prudent. Remember, trouble comes from your mouth!" Yang Biao was really worried about his son, so he couldn't help but warned him.
Yang Xiu was so ashamed and embarrassed that he couldn't listen to these words at all. He just nodded in agreement as if to deal with it.
Yang Biao had known that this would be the case, so he waved his hand helplessly and said: "Okay, I have been angry with Li Que, Guo Bang and other aristocratic families. You should leave as soon as possible. When you arrive in Jiangdong, remember to give you the letter I gave you
