Chapter 1161 The Han family boy grew up at the beginning of the year

Looking at Lu Bu's obviously excited but deliberately pretending to be embarrassed, Xun Yu's expression turned cold. Just as he was about to refute, the emperor held his hand at the right time.

"Who's the news?"

"Shishou Zhao Zirou (Zhao Wen)." Lu Bu's eyes dodged for a moment and said, "Wuguan Duwei Xu Yuanzhi also sent a message, hoping that I can arrive at Wuguan as soon as possible to receive food."

"Okay, okay." The emperor sighed with his palm and smiled. "With this 300,000 stone of grain, the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the king and the emperor are also in a glimmer of hope.

Lu Bu grinned and felt happy. With the words of the emperor, he felt at ease. Because of his relationship with Sun Ce, Ma Teng and Han Sui had already raised enough food through gifts and trade, but the Bingzhou army could only rely on the allocation of the court, and the court had no food, which had delayed him for almost two months. Now that Nanyang food is delivered, Sun Ce designated him to escort it, so he naturally gave him the opportunity to give priority to military food. However, after all, this food was nominally given to the court. Only when the emperor nodded, he could just be justified.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, after receiving the food, I will immediately send you 20,000 stones to Your Majesty. Your Majesty can live here until autumn with peace of mind."

"Then I'll have a love for you."

"Don't dare." Lu Bu stood up and bowed to salute. "Disaster relief is like putting out fires. I will not waste time, so I will say goodbye."

The emperor stood up and saw him off. Lu Bu was extremely satisfied and said humble for a few words, indicating that the emperor would stay. He took a few steps back, jumped onto the horse, and galloped away with Zhang Liao and others. Seeing them disappearing from a distance, the emperor sat back, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, shook his head with a smile. Xun Yu couldn't help but mutter: "What a reckless man, he was bribed by someone for a few stones of grain."

The emperor glanced at Xun Yu. "Is there food unhappy?"

Xun Yu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, with this food, the situation in Guanzhong can indeed be stabilized, but the population loss is difficult to make up. The court..." He couldn't bear to say anything more, so he could only sigh and lower his head weakly.

"Yes, the court is now swimming under the cauldron. No one can say how many days it can last. However, if you want to be strong, you should cure the disease first. If you don't find the root of the disease, you can't make yourself stronger even if you spend a lot of effort." The emperor held a branch and slashed it on the ground casually, as if he was talking, but with a touch of confidence in his chest.

Xun Yu looked at the emperor, especially when he saw the faint smile on his lips, he was suddenly shocked and his mouth suddenly felt a little bitter. The emperor felt Xun Yu's strangeness and his eyes turned. In an instant, Xun Yu subconsciously avoided the emperor's eyes.

"Lingjun?"

The emperor called twice before Xun Yu came to his senses and quickly apologized to the emperor. The emperor waved his hand. "There is one thing that I want to discuss with you."

"Please say it, Your Majesty."

"The last emperor's sons are poor, and the emperor's brother unfortunately died early and did not leave any descendants. Now only our sister and brother are dependent on each other. My sister is in her prime, so should I find a handsome young man with both virtue and talent to marry her, so that you can have a suitable candidate?"

Xun Yu was very ashamed to face the gentle gaze of the emperor. It was not just the princess who wanted to carry out marriage, but the emperor was also an important matter. The court was full of crises and needed strong support. Marriage relationship was a very good choice.

These things were originally planned by him for the emperor. Although he was removed from the position of Shangshu Ling, the emperor still treated him with closeness. However, he became lazy because of his illness. He also asked the emperor to remind him specifically that he had lost his duty as a minister and was ashamed of his trust and respect.

"What Your Majesty said is that I am sick for a long time and have been indifferent and have not been able to plan for Your Majesty thoroughly. I am guilty of my crime." He paused and said, "A story of the Han family, those who respect princesses must be marquis. Nowadays, it is a chaotic world. You cannot only focus on your family background, but also have real talents and knowledge. Loyalty and filial piety are indispensable. Only in this way can you be worthy of the princess' honor. I should carefully distinguish it, so as to live up to your Majesty's entrustedness and not miss the princess for life."

The emperor looked slightly. "Don't worry about this matter, you can drink it slowly. There is another thing that I have always wanted to ask Lingjun, so the Grand Marshal Zhu Gong wrote a letter to recommend General Sun Jian, the General of the East, as the Weiwei. How are you thinking about it?"

Xun Yu was stunned. The emperor first mentioned the princess' marriage and Sun Jian's entry into the court. Was it a coincidence or intentional? Did he want to marry the Sun family? Sun Ce had a strong momentum and was born in a humble background, so he needed the moral support of the court. He was indeed a good marriage partner, but Sun Ce was ambitious. If he became a relative of the foreign country, not only would the gentry lose control of the government, but His Majesty would also find it difficult for His Majesty to regain power from him.

Sun Ce is only a few years older than the emperor, and he is said to have the talent for practicing Taoism. Unless he died on the battlefield, he is likely to live longer than the emperor.

This matter cannot be too hasty. At least we should talk about Sun Ce, the prime minister, otherwise it is very likely to be a drinking poison to quench thirst. Xun Yu hesitated for a long time and couldn't help reminding the emperor. "Your Majesty, the population loss in Guanzhong is serious. Even if the situation is stabilized, it will be very slow to recover. Now there are Bingzhou Army and more than 50,000 Xiliang Army soldiers, which are difficult to support. If Sun Jian enters the pass, the burden will be heavier, I'm afraid..."

The emperor smiled. "You are worried that there are too many troops in Guanzhong and that they are not subordinate to each other? There are already Liangzhou Army and Bingzhou Army, what can I do if there is another Jiangdong Army? As for money and grain, since Sun Ce can provide grain for Han Sui and Ma Teng, now he supplies grain for Lu Bu, can he still make his father hungry? If Sun Jian is willing to enter the pass, it will be more beneficial to the court than to harm the court. I am not worried that Guanzhong cannot afford to support him, what I am worried about is that he will not come."

Xun Yu pondered silently and quickly weighed the pros and cons of Sun Jian's entry into the court. He was a little sick and couldn't cheer up. When he first thought about things, he seemed to have become a different person, focused and even a little excited. His eyes, which were originally not very bright, illuminated, and a little luster appeared on his pale face, just like beautiful jade peeling off the rough skin, and after careful consideration, it emitted a warm light.

The emperor saw it and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He glanced at Tang Ji. Tang Ji was looking at Xun Yu's instinct. She was attracted by Xun Yu's spirit, but she didn't notice the joke on the corner of the emperor's mouth. The maid touched her for a moment before she came to her senses. Her face was flushed with shame and couldn't help but angrily look at the emperor.

After a while, Xun Yu let out a sigh of relief and relaxed his body. "Your Majesty said very much. The strong and weak branches are the secrets of the court. Sun Jian's entry into the court can not only strengthen the strength of Guanzhong, but also influence the situation in Guandong. I think it can be considered and if necessary, I can discuss the court. I have another suggestion, urge Your Majesty to pay attention."

"Oh?" Seeing Xun Yu take the initiative to offer his advice, the emperor was very satisfied. Xun Yu had not been so active for a long time. It seemed that his reminder just now had worked. The smart and wise king Zuo was back, and he was one step further away from Yuan Shao. Sun Jian's entry into the court was equivalent to squeezing Yuan Shao's power in the court. Xun Yu could not have realized this.

"The royal family is the guard of the imperial court. If there is a great chaos today, it is just the support of the royal family. King Chen is both virtuous and talented, loyal to the emperor and the people, and can be the pillar of the court. He is unparalleled in shooting skills and was hired by Sun Celi as a archer to teach his younger brothers and sisters to learn shooting. If Your Majesty summons him to the capital, Your Majesty will have more strong support, and you can also learn shooting virtues and practice the excellent archery skills."

The emperor was surprised and happy, and a little dissatisfied. "There are such talents in the royal family. Why didn't anyone mention them? Explain them quickly."
