Everyone laughed for a while and found that Qu Yi was crying, so they all stopped laughing in embarrassment.
Only Zhou Yuanfu kept laughing, Xu Shu secretly pulled him, and Zhou Yuanfu stopped just now. When he saw Qu Yi crying, he felt very embarrassed.
"Sorry, I drank too much and talked nonsense. Don't take offense. I will punish myself with three drinks!"
Ju Yi just shed tears and did not answer. After Zhou Yuanfu finished speaking, he wandered around to get the wine glass.
Yan Zhong grabbed the wine glass and said, "General, wait a minute, it is not the general's fault. There is another reason for this. Please listen to me in detail."
It turns out that more than 170 years ago, Emperor Ai of the Western Han Dynasty Liu Xin was in power. This emperor was the third to last emperor of the Western Han Dynasty and loved his male favorite Dong Xian. Emperor Ai really loved his male favorite Dong Xian very much, and one time Dong Xian suppressed him while sleeping.
Emperor Ai cut off the sleeves of Emperor Ai. After Emperor Ai woke up, in order not to wake Dong Xian, he cut off all the sleeves, which also left the idiom "the habit of cutting sleeves". If a woman's hair was pressed down by her lover, she would have to use scissors in order not to wake her lover.
Cutting your own hair is an expression of love.
Emperor Ai was not in good health. In the third year of Jianping, he became seriously ill and never got better. At this time, a strange thing happened in Dongping, a feudal state. This Dongping state is near Jining, Shandong today. There is a mountain in the northwest called Hushan.
There is a large stone on the mountain. This stone is about 3.2 meters high and lying on the ground. It is not a spectacle at first.
But one day, the stone suddenly stood up on its own and moved three meters away from its original position. The stone weighed ten thousand kilograms. In ancient times, there were no heavy equipment and there was no way to move it, so it quickly became a legend in the local area.
anecdote.
Passed from one to ten, then to a hundred, this strange incident reached the ears of Liu Ping, King of Dongping. Originally, these princes and kings usually had nothing to do and just enjoyed themselves every day. After hearing about this incident, they naturally wanted to take a look. It was originally a rare sight.
It's nothing. King Dongping, who can burn buns, not only led his children to worship, but also built a temple to worship this stone.
This may have been a nonsense, and at most it would have promoted the local tourism industry, but someone with good intentions found out about it. At that time, it was popular to report to the emperor, saying that so-and-so had the intention to rebel, and that so-and-so was disrespectful to the Holy Emperor. Emperor Ai Liu Xin also liked to hear it.
They wanted to follow suit and inquired about these strange things. When they found out that King Dongping worshiped the giant stone, they were extremely happy, so they reported the matter to the emperor.
The report said that Liu Ping, the king of Dongping, had evil intentions in offering sacrifices to the huge stone, which was to curse the emperor to get sick. After receiving the memorial, Emperor Ai Liu Xin was furious and deposed King Dongping as a commoner.
There were also people in the court who complained for King Dongping, and one of them was Ju Tan, the minister. Ju Tan felt that something was fishy and wrote a letter asking the emperor to review the matter. Emperor Ai Liu Xin was not willing to listen, so he simply demoted all the people who wrote the letter to common people. This
Ju Tan was originally from Pingyuan County. In order to avoid disaster, he traveled thousands of miles and moved his family to Huangzhong, Jincheng County, Liangzhou. He changed "Ju" to "Qu" to avoid disaster.
When Qu Yi heard this, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
"I am a descendant of the Ju family. My ancestors fled to Liangzhou to avoid disaster. Since then, there has never been a day when the descendants of the Ju family have not wanted to return to the Central Plains and restore their original surname!"
Zhou Yuanfu was half sober from drinking at this time. Seeing such a majestic man like Qu Yi crying so sadly, he didn't know how to comfort him.
"Brother Ju Yi, don't be sad. One day, if I can restore the Central Plains, I will make Pingyuan County your fiefdom! I will make you Pingyuan Marquis and let you guard it for generations. It will be hereditary!"
Qu Yi was overjoyed when he heard this. He had received the promise before he had done anything, so he paid homage to him.
"I, Qu Yi, officially resume my ancestral surname today, and will change it to Ju Yi from now on! Ju Yi is willing to go through fire and water for the general, even if he dies!"
Everyone saw this with envy in their eyes.
When the banquet was over and everyone dispersed, Tian Feng stayed.
"Yuan Fu Meng Lang! The great cause has not been accomplished, so how can we talk about enfeoffment? Besides, your reward is too generous."
But Zhou Yuanfu didn't care, "It's just a big pie. Don't blame Uncle Tian. We are an entrepreneurial team. How can we retain talents if we don't paint a big pie?"
Tian Feng didn't find it strange when he saw that Zhou Yuanfu drank too much and talked nonsense.
"If you only ennoble Ju Yi, then other brothers will have ideas."
"Uncle Tian's words are reasonable, but they are indeed inappropriate."
Tian Feng saw that Zhou Yuanfu finally listened to his advice, so he stroked his beard and smiled.
"Children can be taught."
"Everyone should draw a big cake. What does Uncle Tian want? Can the Prime Minister do it?"
"Shu Zi can't be taught!"
…
On the second day, the brothers worshiped again, and Ju Yi officially became the eighth brother.
Cui Niupi routinely tricked Yan Zhong into joining the gang. Yan Zhong had a bigger temper than Tian Feng. He grabbed Cui Niupi and beat him up. In the end, Zhou Yuanfu came to the rescue. He still joked that if he found the three old men, he would become their sworn brother. Everyone laughed.
After Zhou Yuanfu sobered up, he remembered who Ju Yi was. Ju Yi was mentioned in only two or three paragraphs in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Ju Yi was a general under Yuan Shao. In terms of martial arts, he was inferior to Yan Liang and Wen Chou. He was stabbed to death by Zhao Yun.
, I think he is an ordinary military general, and I feel inexplicably disappointed. A county was sealed for these third-rate military generals. I guess this was called "buying horse bones for a thousand gold" in ancient times. I hope that the heroes from all over the world will come together to join forces when they see that I am so generous. Then this
The transaction is not considered a loss.
After the sworn vows were completed, Cui Niubi encouraged everyone to compete. As a result, Guan Yu won the first place without any suspense. But what was shocking was that Ju Yi actually fought Guan Yu for a hundred rounds without losing. Everyone was also shocked, but they all thought
It was because Guan Yu wasted too much energy in the battle with Xu Huang that this happened.
Everyone competed in archery again, and the result was shocking again. Ju Yi hit ten shots in a row, and the last arrow actually split the body of the first arrow. Everyone was speechless. Thinking of Zhou Yuanfu's words last night, they suddenly
He felt that Zhou Yuanfu was unfathomable and very foresighted. With his martial arts skills, it would not be difficult for him to become a marquis in the future.
Zhou Yuanfu himself was confused. He asked Guan Yu privately what his chances of winning were if he only competed with Ju Yi. Guan Yu smiled bitterly and said that he was only 60% sure. Zhou Yuanfu asked Guan Yu again what would be the result if Zhao Yun had mastered the marksmanship and competed with Ju Yi.
It is also said to be a number of five to five.
Zhou Yuanfu was even more confused after hearing this. Did he find a treasure? Then it was probably a fluke that Zhao Yun stabbed Ju Yi to death. This is why the so-called famous general died in the chaos. From now on, it is better for him to be alone and not to be so easy.
Go into battle, otherwise it would be unjust to die in the rebellion before you can become emperor.
In real history, Ju Yi did serve as a general under Yuan Shao, but he was not killed by Zhao Yun with a single shot. It was just because he was arrogant about taking credit. Yuan Shao was afraid that his achievements would shock his master, so he had him killed. It was a pity.
After the competition was completed, everyone returned to the hall to discuss matters.
Tian Feng was still meticulous and always dealt with official matters in a straight-forward manner, "General Lei Gong, five thousand strong men selected from the defeated Yellow Turban army in Jizhou have already set off, either disguised as refugees or merchants to go to Hanzhong, do we have to plan too?"
