Wang Can was walking at the front and saw Mr. Pang De and Sima Hui approaching. Without waiting for the two to speak, he bowed to them, cupped his hands and said, "Can, hello to you two gentlemen!"
Pang Degong stroked his long beard under his chin and said with a smile: "First of all, I said goodbye to the Prefectural Mufu Mansion that day. De Cao and I were waiting eagerly in Xianshan. We have been waiting for many days, and finally we are expecting you to come. Let's go and invite you inside.
"
Wang Can smiled and said: "Please, gentlemen."
Pang Tong looked at Duke Pang De and then at Sima Hui, with a look of surprise on his young cheeks.
My uncle, when did he become so kind to outsiders?
Pang Tong lived with Duke Pang De, and knew that Liu Biao had come to visit Duke Pang De several times, but he had not received any good looks. However, Wang Can was young and had some abilities that made him so favored by Duke Pang De. He glanced at Wang Can again and stood aside.
Sima Hui, who was standing beside him, saw Sima Hui nodding and smiling, with a look of approval in his eyes. He felt very strange in his heart. Why did these two proud elders suddenly change their personalities and seemed to be different people.
Pang Tong didn't know why. Wang Can, Mr. Pang De, and Sima Hui were already chatting and laughing with each other, and walked to the living room. Zuo Ci followed Mr. Pang De and asked, "Brother Pang, do you have a place for me?"
Pang Degong stopped, turned around and smiled but did not answer. Sima Hui smiled and said: "Brother Taoist, please!"
In the living room, the guests and hosts were seated.
Although Pang Tong was young, he had a sharp eye. He noticed at a glance that Wang Can was wearing a linen coat worn by ordinary people, and Dian Wei next to him was also wearing a linen coat, which was short and ill-fitting. He rolled his eyes and asked: "
Wang Yizhou, you came to Xian Mountain to visit your uncle, why are you wearing unfitting coarse linen clothes? Could it be that my uncle and Mr. Sima live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, just like mountain villagers, don't they deserve courtesy?"
In one sentence, it directly provokes a dispute.
Pang Degong glared at Pang Tong, while Sima Hui smiled slightly.
The two of them were so thoughtful, how could they not notice that Wang Can and Dian Wei were wearing ordinary people's coarse linen clothes, which was nondescript and very weird. However, the two of them took Wang Can's face into consideration and did not bring it up, so they avoided the important and took the matter lightly. Unexpectedly, Pang Tong had no taboos.
, he revealed the matter with just one sentence after sitting down, making the atmosphere a bit awkward.
Zuo Ci was overjoyed when he saw Pang Tong asking questions.
He secretly thought that it would be best if Pang Tong said something and drove the two of them away.
When the time came, he came forward to keep Wang Can and Dian Wei as guests at his residence. In this way, he could carefully consider their faces. Zuo Ci sat at the table, his expression calm, but there was a feeling in his heart.
I secretly rejoiced that Pang Joker was a good person, he knew what he wanted and said what he said.
Sima Hui and Pang Degong looked at each other with a wry smile on their faces. They didn't know that Wang Can was assassinated by Li Lian's men, so they didn't understand why Wang Can was wearing coarse linen clothes.
When Wang Can heard this, he smiled at Pang Tong and said slowly: "Young Master Pang doesn't know something. It's not like that."
Pang Tong then asked: "Wang Yizhou, please clear up the doubts."
Wang Can explained: I set out from Xiangyang City in a carriage with my guards. On the way, I was intercepted and killed by more than a hundred dead men. I was quite embarrassed. Fortunately, Huang Hansheng led the cavalry to rescue me and I was able to save my life. Because the clothes on my body were stained with blood.
, and a lot of damage. It would be too rude to go up the mountain to meet Mr. Pang and Mr. Sima. Therefore, Can found a house at the foot of the mountain, put on a set of clean clothes, and then went up the mountain to meet the two gentlemen. As for the clothes on his body,
Clothes that don’t fit you are helpless.”
Hearing this, Pang Tong showed a hint of apology on his face.
However, he did not apologize to Wang Can, but continued to sit where he was and remained silent.
When Pang Tong saw that Pang Tong was motionless and did not retreat, he secretly sighed that Pang Tong was too strong and had a bad temper. He thought about it and asked, "First of all, have you ever found out the situation when you were assassinated by a dead soldier?"
Wang Can shook his head and said: "The situation has not been investigated."
Dian Wei frowned slightly. He knew the situation and knew that the person who assassinated Wang Can was sent by the Li family, but he didn't understand why Wang Can denied it. Seeing Dian Wei hesitate to speak, Pang Degong said: "First, you
I’m afraid what you said is not true, look at the expression on your guard’s face, it’s clear that he has found out the situation, why do you say you don’t know?”
Wang Can still shook his head and said: "Mr. Pang, it is indeed unknown."
Regarding Li Lian's matter, Wang Can had no intention of escalating the matter other than pursuing the person responsible. Therefore, Wang Can had no intention of telling Mr. Pang De. When Dian Wei saw that Wang Can persisted, he knew that Wang Can had his own plans and sat quietly behind Wang Can.
, no action.
Pang Degong had a clear mind and understood Wang Can's meaning as soon as he heard Wang Can's words. Since Wang Can didn't want to make it clear, he had no intention of meddling in Wang Can's decision.
Pang Degong put aside the topic and talked about other things.
In this way, the two sides had a very lively conversation.
"Boom! Boom!"
At this time, a steady sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the hall. After Pang Degong heard it, his face suddenly showed a touch of joy. Looking around, he saw four young people walking one after another outside the hall.
The leader is about twenty-four or five years old, with a heroic appearance, wearing a plain scarf on his head and a maroon robe. He has a thin cheek, eyebrows like swords, and piercing eyes, but he has an air of elegance.
There was a long sword hanging on his waist, and he strode in, giving people a feeling of calm as a mountain.
Wang Can's eyes lit up when he saw the young man walking in.
He had seen the young man in front of him before. When Liu Biao hosted a banquet, the young man had been at the banquet, but he was sitting at the end and did not stand out.
Pang Degong pointed to the young man and introduced: "First of all, this man's name is Xu Shu, his character is straight, he has thousands of strategies in his mind, and he can encompass the opportunities of the universe. He is a rare talent."
When Wang Can heard this, he was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that this person was Xu Shu.
He stared at Xu Shu, his eyes shining brightly, this was a great opportunity to kidnap talents.
If Xu Shu can be taken over for his own use, Wang Can's overall strength will increase a lot. Of course, Wang Can's main goal is to find some county guards. He commands Yizhou, and all nine counties in Yizhou under his command need people.
Governance. Although Wang Can came to Chengdu to open an examination to obtain scholars, most of the talents he obtained were at the county magistrate level. He did not directly appoint people at the county magistrate or county magistrate level. If he wanted to become a high official, he had to start from the county magistrate level.
Climb up step by step from the grassroots level.
However, the people around Mr. Pang De are different. They are all talented people and should be treated differently.
Wang Can bowed his hands to Xu Shu and said, "Mr. Xu, you are polite!"
Regarding Xu Shu, Wang Can could be said to have lowered his attitude and called him "Sir". In ancient times, the word "Sir" literally meant someone older than his father's brother. However, it was also used to refer to people who were virtuous and knowledgeable.
Wang Can called Xu Shu "sir", which undoubtedly identified Xu Shu as a learned person.
Xu Shu bowed his hands in return and sat down in the hall.
Following Xu Shu, another young man walked in.
This young man has a white face and no beard, red lips and white teeth, black hair as black as ink, and is wearing a black robe. He looks serious and seems a little reserved when walking. After he walked in, Pang Degong immediately introduced: "First of all, this person's name is Shi Tao, whose courtesy name is Guangyuan.
, he has a reserved temperament and behaves well. He is a talented governor and county guard. However, if Guangyuan enters the court as an official, it is best to serve as a censor."
When Wang Can heard Pang Degong's comments, he straightened up in his heart.
He is an incredible talent to be praised like this. With a faint smile on his face, Wang Can straightened his body, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Shi, you are polite."
Shi Tao cupped his hands and said, "I've met Wang Yizhou."
After finishing speaking, Shi Tao walked to the seat and sat down next to Xu Shu.
Shi Tao and Xu Shu were originally from the same hometown and were both from Yingchuan. They had a very good relationship and went south to Jingzhou together to study under Pang De Gong and Sima Hui. Although neither of them studied under Pang De Gong and Sima Hui, they were called friends with Pang De Gong.
But in fact, there is a mentor-disciple relationship between the two of them and Pang Degong.
After Shi Tao, another tall and slim young man walked in.
This young man was wearing a white Confucian robe. He had a strange appearance and was quite ancient. Without waiting for Mr. Pang De's introduction, the young man paid homage to Mr. Pang De and Sima Hui and said, "Student, please pay homage to Mr. Pang and Mr. Sima."
Immediately, he bowed to Wang Can and said: "Meng Jian and Meng Gongwei of Runan, pay homage to Wang Yizhou."
Wang Can said in surprise: "Mr. Meng is from Runan?"
Meng Jian nodded and replied: "Exactly!"
Wang Can laughed and said: "Mr. Meng, you don't know. Can is also from Runan. I didn't expect that Mr. Meng and Mr. Meng are from the same hometown." Wang Can's face was full of surprise. With this level of identity, he recruited Meng Gongwei.
At that time, there was a step to recruit Meng Gongwei more smoothly.
Pang Degong smiled and said: "For the first time, you have a good fellow countryman. His public power and talents are outstanding, and he is qualified to be the governor."
Meng Jian lifted up his robe and sat on the table.
The last young man was wearing a soap cloth robe with fluttering skirts. He had three short strands of beard under his chin. He had sword-shaped eyebrows and bright eyes. He was handsome and had a majestic appearance. He wore a Xiaoyao scarf on his head, revealing a flowing air.
The feeling of ecstasy is like being a hermit in the mountains, coming from the world and going to the mountains.
Pang Degong pointed to the young man and introduced: "First of all, this is Cui Jun, whose courtesy name is Zhouping. Like Yuanzhi, Guangyuan, and Gongwei, he has thousands of strategies in his mind, has the talent of being an governor, and can shepherd and guard an area.
Good material."
Wang Can cupped his hands again and said: "Can meet Mr. Cui!"
Cui Zhouping nodded, replied, and returned to his seat to sit down.
Wang Can glanced at the four people, then glanced at Mr. Pang De and Sima Hui, who were smiling, and felt a little confused. With such a solemn introduction, Mr. Pang De wanted them to serve in Yizhou? If that was the case, Wang Can would
Returning with a full load, Liu Biao's foundation was emptied out. Thinking of this, Wang Can's eyes flashed with heat.
It is really a good thing that so many talented people have become his favorite.
Pang Degong sat above, glanced at several people, and said with a smile: "I am the first to come to Xianshan today. It is my honor to come to Xianshan. The reason why I have brought you here is to introduce you first. You know how to make friends through literature.
The leader is quick-thinking and has great strategies. It is a great blessing for you to have a conversation with him, so be sure to take advantage of it."
These words were actually for Wang Can and Xu Shu to communicate. Subtly, Pang Degong was recommending Wang Can to Xu Shu and others, asking them to test Wang Can to see if he met the conditions for becoming an official.
However, whether Wang Can can withstand the test of several people depends on Wang Can's own ability.
