Zhou Buyi returned home in despair, like a deflated rubber ball.
Cao Peng could see the clues. Did Cao Cao also see the clues? When he thought that everything he had done was just a clown-like behavior in the eyes of others, Zhou Buyi couldn't help but shiver and his hair stood on his head. Did he still want to continue?
What about staying in Xudu?
Zhou Buyi's background was not as noble as he said.
The mother is Liu Xian's sister and comes from a prominent family.
But in fact, Zhou Buyi's mother was just an inconspicuous concubine from a side branch of the Liu clan. Her situation was quite similar to that of Deng Ji. The ancestor of the Deng clan in Jiyang, where Deng Ji belongs, was Yuntai 28
One of the generals was Deng Yu. But with the gradual decline of the Deng family, the Deng family clan continued to develop and formed today's Jiyang Deng Village. Deng Ji was a side branch of the Deng family.
Generally speaking, concubines are already inferior to others, let alone Shibianzhi.
It was precisely for this reason that Zhou Buyi's mother later married a local boy from a poor family and gave birth to Zhou Buyi.
This is why Zhou Buyi’s name is a double character instead of a single character.
He has been very strong since he was a child, showing intelligence that is different from his peers. He gradually became famous and gained a reputation as a "child prodigy" in the local area.
But this does not mean that Zhou Buyi can be recognized by the maternal clan.
Not only was he not recognized, he also had to do some work within his ability to support himself. As he grew older, Zhou Buyi gained the attention of Liu Xian because of his intelligence, so he let him work as a book boy by his side. However,
He is just a book boy.
By chance, Zhou Buyi followed Liu Xian to visit Shuijing Villa and was praised by Sima Hui.
Later, Zhuge Liang, who was a disciple of Sima Hui at the time, was also very friendly to Zhou Buji and praised him full of praise, which made Liu Xian pay attention to Zhou Buji and officially recognized him as his nephew. When Liu Bei entered Jingzhou, Liu Xian paid him a visit as usual.
Unexpectedly, Liu Bei was very happy when he saw Zhou Buji. He even expressed his willingness to introduce famous teachers to Zhou Buji and also bear all the expenses for Zhou Buji's education. At that time, Liu Bei introduced Liu Ba, a famous scholar from Jingzhou, to Zhou Buji.
I hope that Professor Liu Ba and Zhou Buji can achieve great success.
Liu Ba was from Lingling and had the same clan as Liu Xian.
He is a serious official, born from the direct wife of the Liu family in Lingling, and his status is still above that of Mr. Liu.
His grandfather Liu Yao was worshiped as the prefect of Cangwu; his father Liu Xiang was once the prefect of Jiangxia and a general against the bandits. When Liu Biao was stationed in Jingzhou, the Lingling Liu family did not have a blind date with him. Liu Xiang, who was the prefect of Jiangxia at that time, was even more so.
He had several conflicts with Liu Biao, which made Liu Biao very angry and even had murderous intentions. He detained Liu Ba and tried to kill Liu Ba several times, but in the end Liu Ba cleverly avoided it.
Later, the Jing and Xiang clans turned from confrontation to supporting Liu Biao.
Liu Xiang also resigned from the post of Jiangxia Governor due to physical reasons and was replaced by Liu's cousin Xin Huang Zu, thus easing the relationship.
When Liu Ba was eighteen years old, he became the chief bookkeeper of the household Cao.
Liu Biao campaigned several times and even expressed his willingness to recommend him as a talented person. However, Liu Ba was always wary of Liu Biao and refused to take office.
Speaking of which, Zhou Buyi is also Liu Ba's nephew.
It was a natural thing for him to worship Liu Ba as his disciple. However, Liu Ba was not only disgusted with Liu Biao, but also disgusted with Liu Bei. Liu Bei ran to introduce him, but it was difficult for him to refuse in person, but in the end he thought of a way to tactfully
This request was rejected... For this reason, Zhou Buyi was greatly saddened. He was grateful to Liu Bei, but could not hate Liu Ba. He hated himself as a commoner and felt extremely inferior. At the same time, in his inferiority, he developed a kind of
He had a very strange self-esteem. So, he began to become public.
At the end of the ninth year of Jian'an, Zhou Buyi suddenly received a letter.
The letter was written by Liu Bei, whom he respected the most, and wanted to entrust him with something.
Liu Bei told him that the Han Dynasty was in decline and the imperial court was in ruins, and he needed the help of knowledgeable people. Liu was going to Xudu first, and hoped that Zhou Buyi would go with him. After arriving in Xudu, he should try his best to show his reputation and make friends with the Cao family's children.
, it is best to use this to gain Cao Cao's attention.
At the same time, Liu Bei also told Zhou Buji that he was willing to help him improve the status of his mother's family.
After arriving in Xudu, someone will contact him. At that time, he only needs to obey that person's instructions and perform on his own... In the future, when the Han Dynasty is revived, he will be a hero. Not to mention becoming famous, he can become a true
Scholars are respected by people all over the world.
It can be said that Zhou Buyi came to Xudu full of ideals.
It was really smooth at first.
Under the special arrangement of some people, Zhou Buyi met Cao Chong.
At that time, Zhou Buyi was thirteen years old, while Cao Chong was only eight years old. Zhou Buyi's experience and knowledge were far beyond what Cao Chong could match, so he easily gained Cao Chong's trust and quickly established a firm foothold in Xudu. However, Zhou Buyi gained Cao Chong's trust easily.
, I thought that my flawless performance was actually full of flaws in the eyes of those real scholars. Cao Peng could see that Xudu...how many people knew about it?
Zhou Buyi, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
The more scared he was, the more panicked he felt...
A fifteen-year-old child has not experienced too many storms after all.
The composure and competence he had pretended to have before disappeared at this time.
what do I do?
Should you continue to stay in Xudu, or leave?
He was lying on the couch with a look of confusion on his face.
By the way, didn't Duke Xuande say that if there is any danger, you can inform the mysterious man and ask him to help or make suggestions?
In the two years since he came to Xudu, he has not seen that mysterious man.
But he could guess that this person must have an extraordinary status.
By the way, find a way to contact him...
Zhou Bujie turned over and sat up, and a handkerchief fell from his arms. He was about to walk out, but hesitated for a moment. After a while, he squatted down, picked up the handkerchief, and folded it carefully. He held it in his hand for a long time, and he
He sighed softly and put it in his arms again.
Maybe, what he said is right.
I should go home, stay with my parents, study hard...

The street drums set up at the entrance of every street in Xudu are beating, dong dong dong dong... the time of the ban has arrived, and the night ban in Xudu is about to begin.
Cao Peng was sitting in the hall, listening to the sound of street drums coming from outside the house, and his thoughts were wandering.
"Master, Master?"
"Ah, Boss Shi, I'm sorry, I just thought of something, so... come on, let's have a drink."
Shi A had put on clean clothes and was sitting in the hall.
Du Ji kept company, but most of the time, he only listened but did not speak.
"Sir, you seem to have something on your mind?"
Cao Peng took a sip of his wine and nodded, "I'm wondering if that child will be ruined because of today. If so, it would be a pity."
Shi Adao: "Young Master is saying... that Zhou Buyi?"
"Yeah, it feels like it's a bit much."
For some reason, when Cao Peng returned home, Zhou Buyi's lost look always flashed in his mind. There was some pity and some regret in his heart, but more importantly, there was a kind of anger. He hated those who were hiding behind,
A man who plays tricks.
If Zhou Buyi were an adult, perhaps Cao Peng wouldn't have so many thoughts.
But……
He came to Xudu at the age of thirteen and kept provoking troubles.
Even if one day he succeeds, will those people keep his life? He is almost bearing the hostility of the world's scholars on the tender shoulders of a thirteen-year-old child. If those people succeed, what will happen to Zhou Buyi?
, it can also be guessed.
In order to appease Shilin's anger, or in other words to hide himself, Zhou Bujie must die.
After all, of those people he faced, which one was easy to talk to?
Cao Peng smiled bitterly and said to Shi Adao: "Although Zhou Buyi is hateful, he is still a child after all. The person I am angry with is actually..."
He didn't make it clear what it actually was.
But with Shi'a's experience and Du Ji's wisdom, we can guess the clues.
"Young Master has a kind heart. If it were me, I would definitely not feel sorry for him."
"Haha, poor people must be hateful... That's what I say, but when I think of his age, I still feel a little... When I was thirteen years old, my father carried me on his back and fled all the way from Zhongyang Mountain to Jiji.
Yang. Now that I think about it, I am much happier than him."
When Cao Peng talked about himself, Du Ji and Shi A couldn't help but sigh.
Both of them have experienced countless ups and downs. Now that I think about it, I feel the same way.
However, seeing that the atmosphere had become so solemn and depressing, Du Ji hurriedly said: "Young master showed off his talents in Yuxiu Tower today, and it will be a good story in the future. However, Bohou is a little strange, how do you know these many things? What do you think?"
Bohou has never heard of those things he said. Is that virtuous guy very famous? And where are Europe and Greece?"
Cao Peng was startled and immediately felt a headache.
He said it happily at the time, but after he came back, he felt the seriousness of the problem.
Because the things he said cannot be verified at all. In later generations, names like Aristotle may be familiar, but in this era...
When Kong Rong comes tomorrow, he must have an explanation.
Cao Peng was anxious and wise, and said with a smile: "Bohou, do you know who my teacher is?"
"Oh, Mr. Lu Hunshan, Hu Zhao and Hu Kongming?"
"Sir is my mentor, but actually before Mr. Kong Ming, I had another teacher.
His name is Zuo Ci, and he taught me many things when I was young. These things were all taught by my mentor Zuo Ci, but it’s a pity that I don’t know where he is now.”
He is in Jiangdong!
Cao Peng knew this.
Presumably Kong Rong and others would not be able to go to Jiangdong to visit Zuo Ci.
I heard my senior brother said back then that Zuo Ci was practicing in the mountains and rarely showed up anymore. Ha, even if he could find him, I'm afraid it wouldn't be that easy.
Well, leave it to Zuo Ci.
Anyway, he is busy cultivating to become an immortal, maybe when will he...
Well, let’s survive this moment first.
As for the future, let’s talk about it later!
Cao Peng didn't want to continue discussing this issue, so he changed the topic and said to Shi A: "Boss Shi, you haven't told me yet, why are you in this situation?"
Shi'a's face suddenly darkened.
After being silent for a moment, he raised his head and smiled bitterly: "It's a long story to say."
It turned out that when he was Cao Pi, he went to Qixian first. After staying in Qixian for a year, Cao Pi was not satisfied with his achievements, so he had the idea of joining the army. In the eighth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao sent troops to Yecheng, and the two sides fought hard.
Extremely ferocious. Cao Pi was ordered to go to Zhongqiu to welcome the Black Mountain bandits out of the mountain. He was also full of enthusiasm, hoping to take this opportunity to establish his achievements and be appreciated by Cao Cao.
At that time, Shi A, as Cao Pi's personal entourage, naturally went to Zhongqiu together.
"That night, the Wuwan Tuqi suddenly arrived. Neither I nor the Crown Prince expected it. At that time, most of the people in the Zhongqiu Camp were the old, weak, sick and disabled, and Zhang Yan's main force had not yet left the mountain. When they encountered the Wuwan Tuqi,
The attack caused the entire Zhongqiu camp to fall into chaos.
I was protecting the crown prince and wanted to break out of the siege, but I didn't expect Karasuma to suddenly ride with great ferocity.
During the breakout, we encountered a troop of soldiers and horses. Although I tried my best to cover, I was ultimately outnumbered. The prince died in the fighting, and I was frightened by the horse, fell off the horse, broke one leg, and fell into a coma at the time.
In the past, when I woke up, the Wuwan Tuqi had already left. The entire Zhongqiu camp... Later, I was found by reinforcements and sent to Yecheng. Sikong was extremely angry at the time and hated me for not being able to protect the crown prince Zhou Zhou, so he broke off
I had a hand muscle in my right hand and was driven out of the camp... I was lucky enough to survive. After returning to Xudu, all my friends from the past were like scorpions and tigers when they saw me and hid away. I couldn't help it.
, my wife and children have to survive at home, so I have to find a job. If I hadn’t met the young master by chance today, I planned to take my wife and children back to my hometown in Luoyang some time later. At least there are still a few of my disciples to rely on, even if it doesn’t work out,
We also have several acres of thin farmland at home.”
Shi A's words were a bit despondent.
Cao Peng couldn't help but frown, and after a while he whispered softly: "Are you planning to stay in such a miserable state?"
"What else can I do?"
"Boss Shi, I look down on you."
Shi A was startled and looked at Cao Peng in astonishment.
"Boss Shi, your hands and legs are disabled, but your head is still there.
Master Wang taught you swordsmanship back then, and those swordsmanship skills are still there. You still have your left hand and can still walk, so do you just give up? Although Sikong cut off one of your hands, I believe that was definitely not Sikong’s original intention. If you were still the same as before
Boss Shi, stay here. As long as you still have hope in your heart, let’s do something together... Boss Shi, I just ask you, in your heart...do you have any resentment towards Sikong?"
Shi A was silent!
After a while, he shook his head gently, "It was my incompetence that failed to save the prince's life. Although Sikong cut off my hand, he spared my life. How could I be resentful? But, I really don't know what else to do. You see
I can't even walk, let alone lose one hand... Young Master, I know you value friendship. But you seem to be in trouble now. If you keep me, wouldn't I be blamed by Sikong?"
Cao Peng looked at Shi A and said softly: "I don't know if Sikong will blame me if I keep you.
But I know that if I let you go, there is no way I will blame myself in the future. As I said, you have lost your right hand and your left hand. You are lame, but you can ride a horse. The key is the murderous sword skills in your head...
So, just stay here honestly. As for whether you want to sink like this for the rest of your life, or whether you are willing to work with me to start a career and get rich, it is your choice."
Shi A, silent again!
"By the way, I have one more thing to ask you. At that time, there was another person beside you besides you.
But now I am destined to die, and you are physically disabled... Where is that man? Where is he now? Could it be said that he also died in the rebellion?"
