Gongsun Xun actually doesn’t have much to say if he doesn’t go to see these famous people in Yingchuan... To put it bluntly, it’s useless to go see them now!
Those old people were probably all dead by the time Gongsun Xun began to serve as an official;
Those who are still in their prime, it is estimated that when the evil of the party is lifted and they ascend to high positions, the Han Dynasty will also collapse;
Those young ones, whether they are Xun Yu or Chen Qun who have not yet tied up their hair, or Xun You who is about the same age as himself, or Zhong Yao or Guo Tu who are already serving as officials, what if we get to know each other? Should we talk to them about the general trend of the world? Will they treat you, a country bumpkin from western Liaoning, like a guest of honor? People must be self-aware, know what kind of person they can handle at what position, and have a sense of proportion in their hearts!
If you go to meet at this time, the so-called meeting is just a meeting, but it will waste time.
As for asking for a review and then becoming famous... it's not impossible, but Gongsun Xun really doesn't want to anger Teacher Lu Zhilu, who has a dark face all day long but has a brighter heart than anyone else.
I asked you to go to Runan to deliver a message. Why did you suddenly follow the trend of the world in Yingchuan?
So, let’s go to Runan to get things done first!
From Goushi to Runan, it looked like it was passing through a state and a county, but in fact it just crossed a Yingchuan County. In addition, the road in the hinterland of the Central Plains was flat, so within a few days, the group had arrived at Runan County.
These days, Runan County has 37 counties under its jurisdiction, with more than 400,000 registered residents and a population of more than 2 million. It is the essence of the Central Plains. But after Gongsun Xun, Lu Fan and their entourage arrived in Runan, why didn't they go to Lu Fan's house? , but from north to south, according to geographical distribution, he delivered letters to the homes of several ancient scholars, famous families, and idle officials to explain the situation. And after all this busy work, he finally went to Pingyu to pay an audience to the current governor of Runan. After that, seven or eight days passed.
"Junior brothers." After receiving the promise from the county guard, Lu Fan took the initiative to hand over everyone as soon as they went out. "Since these junior brothers have come to Runan, even if my family, Lu Ziheng, has to fulfill my loyalty as a landlord, why not come to me?" As soon as we leave our hometown of Xiyang County (today’s Taihe, Anhui Province)? This place happens to be downstream of the Ying River, so we can go back there on our return trip."
"That's exactly what I meant." Gongsun Xun was not polite. "I have finished what my elders told me to do. There is really no reason not to go to Xiyang."
"Exactly, exactly." Liu Bei also nodded hastily, as if he didn't want to return to Lu Zhi so soon.
"Now that I'm here, there's absolutely no way I won't visit my senior brother at home." Gongsun Yue also simply agreed. "It doesn't matter if you live in a poor family. Even if you drink and eat, that's where etiquette comes from."
"Since the three junior brothers don't mind it, let's go to Xiyang." Lu Fan immediately smiled and said. "The three of you, as well as Han Yigong who didn't know where he went to ask about customs, are all from Youzhou. People, I’m afraid you don’t know that our Xiyang saltwater ducks are one of a kind. No matter how poor I, Lu Ziheng, am, can’t I still treat you to a few ducks?”
Everyone laughed and shouted that they were going to Lu Fan's house to eat duck. Then they rode off in front of the county mansion and went straight to Xiyang.
The straight-line distance from Pingyu to Xiyang is less than 200 miles, separated only by the Ying River. Everyone didn't bring much to salute, and they were all teenagers. If they didn't skimp on their horsepower, they could actually get there in a day and night. But. In fact, it was probably because they were in a hurry and had not experienced the scenery of the Central Plains properly, so the group walked very slowly. Liu Bei asked questions all the way, and Gongsun Xun also visited the countryside from time to time to inquire about customs. Ask about the geography of this place, ask about the people's livelihood in that place... In the end, this journey actually lasted four days and nights!
What left Lu Fan most speechless was that on the evening of the third day, he had already crossed the Ying River and could see the city wall of Xiyang County with the naked eye. Gongsun Xun suddenly said that he would stay overnight by the Ying River to pay tribute to the ancient sage Ying.
Uncle Kao... I don't know where he learned that Yingshui got its name from Uncle Kao of Ying, and I didn't see him chasing him in Yingchuan!
However, after all, the group of people was vaguely led by Gongsun Xun, and what he wanted to do was really something that no one could resist, so everyone had no choice but to hold their noses and stay in a pavilion by the Yingshui River for one night.
Had a nice bath in the river.
And when Lu Fan got up early the next morning, he immediately dressed up carefully... After all, it had been half a year since he left home, and when he entered the county, he would probably meet all acquaintances, so it was always good to dress neatly. But that said
It's dressing up, that is, choosing from several silk robes given by Gongsun Xun on the day of my crowning.
As the saying goes, people are more irritating than others. Although Lu Fan has never been shy about talking about the poverty in his family, how could a young man who was just twenty years old not care about these things in his heart? His parents died early, and his brother and sister-in-law were not good to him.
After tying up her hair, the family was separated. What she said about her family being surrounded by walls was really a lie. I am afraid that the entire family's possessions are not as good as this silk robe. And this time I said that I would treat these junior brothers to a duck, but I'm afraid the money for the duck would be too much.
You have to get rid of the silk robe this person gave you!
It's a pity that I have a lot of money and good looks, but because my family is poor, I am looked down upon by my fellow villagers. As a result... I don't know when this kind of life will end!
Thinking about it, Lu Fan suddenly looked at the boots under his bed with a wry smile - Gongsun Xun seemed to be a man who could achieve great things, but why were his family so careless? He only gave him robes, a crown, and a horse, but
I didn't expect to give myself two pairs of good shoes, but I actually had to wear a silk robe on top and patched boots on the bottom to go back to my hometown. I didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
However, now that I’m thinking about it, I’d better decide which silk robe to wear... Needless to say, I’ll just wear whichever one can better cover my boots!
After finishing cleaning up, Lu Fan opened the door of the pavilion, but unexpectedly saw Gongsun Xun standing outside the door in full dress, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
"Brother Xun, what does this mean?" This situation made Lu Fan, who had always been alert, uncontrollably startled and confused.
"It's just me being careless." Gongsun Xun put his hands behind his hands and said with a smile. "It's rare for Brother Ziheng to return to his hometown. How can he not wear brocade clothes to make himself famous among his neighbors?"
After saying this, two little maids who didn't know where they came from came out from behind Gongsun Xun, one of them was holding a Shu brocade robe!
Lu Fan swallowed and quickly shook his head: "This won't work, it's too expensive!"
How could it not be expensive? This is a robe made of Shu brocade!
You know, for today's Han Dynasty families, there is a saying that whether a family is really rich depends on whether his family has Shu brocade from Yizhou, wine from Liangzhou, pearls from Jiaozhou, and
Youzhou's ginseng... If these four things are fully prepared, then you can be considered a prominent family!
As for how this inexplicable statement came up, you have to ask Amway, which has a monopoly on the emerging supplement ginseng, and has been secretly brewing "Liangzhou" brand wine for a long time.
"Brother Zi Heng said something serious." Gongsun Xun disapproved and motioned to his maid to change Lu Fan's clothes. "It's just a vulgar thing. If it can help Brother Zi Heng gain face in front of his neighbors, then it can be considered a good use."
Lu Fan was at a loss and could only let the two maids help him change into the Shu brocade robe at the door of the pavilion dormitory.
"What a handsome Lu Ziheng!" When the other party put on his brocade clothes, Gongsun Xun couldn't help but praise him with his hands. "But there is still one thing missing."
Before he finished speaking, another maid appeared from behind, holding a crown inlaid with pearls in her hand!
Lu Fan took a breath, but no longer resisted... Why didn't he want to return home in glory?
Just like that, after putting on the Shu brocade silk robe and the pearl-stepped crown, Lu Fan was dragged to the main courtyard of the pavilion by Gongsun Xun in a daze, and then met Liu Bei leading a white horse!
"Brother Xun," Liu Bei shouted excitedly. "A tall horse is the true nature of a man! Why don't you let Brother Ziheng ride your handsome white horse into the city?"
"Fart!" Gongsun Xun walked over and took the reins of the white horse with his hands, but then stuffed it back. "For ignorant people, riding in a car is the highest position. Where is the saying about riding a horse?"
Lu Fan couldn't help laughing when he heard this. This Liu Bei is so ignorant... A group of people must have priorities. In any case, Gongsun Xun is the leader of the group. Although he gave himself brocade clothes and pearls and crowns, they were his extra things! Really?
If anyone can easily give away the things he likes and often uses to others, then how could Han Xin be tied up tightly by the great ancestor Liu Bang who took off his clothes and pushed him to eat?
As for the so-called carriage showing more status than horses, it also depends on which carriage and which horse. For example, Gongsun Xun’s white horse, how many carriages do you have to use to exchange for one?
Thinking of this, Lu Fan looked around. Hearing this meant that he had prepared a car for himself, but there was no sign of a car in the yard of the pavilion?
Just as he was thinking about it, Gongsun Xun grabbed Lu Fan's hand and pulled him outside the pavilion. As soon as he went out, Lu Fan was stunned.
Without him, I saw more than a dozen cars lined up on the official road next to Yingshui in front of the gate. The rows were neat and spectacular, some were horse-drawn, and some were ox-horses. And each car had a place on it.
He picked up a big box, and there were maids and slaves on both sides of the car. What was even more shocking was the car at the front. Even though Lu Fan had never seen it before, he knew at a glance that it was a precious car.
The shape, material, inlays, carvings, and paint of the car are all of the highest quality, and you can even smell the incense on it while standing next to the car.
"Brother Ziheng," Gongsun Xun explained with a smile, pointing to the car. "To tell you the truth, I don't like riding in cars, and I couldn't make a good car in a short time. But fortunately, Zhen Yizhen Dayin, who is from the same school as us,
There is a rare treasure car there, and I found a way to get it... Just make do with it!"
With that said, Gongsun Xun directly pushed Lu Fan into the car again, but unfortunately Lu Ziheng was already dizzy at this time, and he got into the car half-pushed. Only when he stood in the car did he notice the man standing on the other side of the car.
Han Dang quickly smiled... He still didn't understand at this moment that Han Dang's disappearance in the past few days was simply because he came here in advance to prepare these things for himself!
"What happened to the shoes?" At this moment, Gongsun Xun on the other side shouted again, as if he noticed the shoes under Lu Fan's feet because he was standing in the car. "I was so confused, I forgot
Prepare shoes for Brother Ziheng... hurry up and get a pair of silk shoes!"
Shoes can be considered the most formal shoes in the Han Dynasty. Etiquette even clearly stipulates that shoes should be worn on formal occasions. The so-called silk shoes are actually single-layer hard espadrille shoes with silk cloth as the upper. They are generally worn by wealthy people. .
"Young Master." After working for a while, a member of the Gongsun family with some status came over to explain. "The matter is urgent. I really couldn't find the silk shoes in my hurry. Can I use other shoes?"
"How can other shoes work?" Gongsun Xun asked with a serious face. "Look for it again! If you can't find it, bring me my silk shoes!"
Lu Fan, who was standing in the car, wanted to persuade him, but when he opened his mouth, no sound came out.
However, the family took the maid around for a run, but came back empty-handed: "Young Master, even your silk shoes are nowhere to be found. The servants are really incompetent."
Gongsun Xun was slightly startled when he heard this, then he picked up his robe and lowered his head to see that his silk shoes were already on his feet... This was embarrassing.
Lu Fan laughed again. At this time, he also regained a little clarity, so he quickly advised: "Just bring a pair of shoes."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Fan lost his voice again. The servants, family members, the chief and soldiers of the pavilion who were watching the excitement, and even Liu Bei and Han Dang were all stunned - it turned out that Gongsun Xun took off his silk shoes directly and turned around. When you come over, you have to put it on for Lu Fan yourself.
Lu Fan was caught off guard, and his two patched shoes had already been taken off. He hurriedly tried to stop him. But he was a poor scribe who could not even eat a few ducks. How could he be a frontier fortress? The opponent of Gongsun Xun, who grew up killing pigs? I saw Gongsun Xun firmly pressing the opponent with one hand, and then pressing his knee against the opponent's feet, making Lu Fan completely unable to move.
At this time, Gongsun Xun operated with one hand and slowly put his silk shoes on the opponent!

PS: I went to see Xia Lu Fan’s data in the Three Kingdoms... Nima, this is the data of Yangzhou Mu, Da Sima and the founding ministers? Is it a mixed bag of soldiers on the roadside?
