After finally coming to the Central Plains, Chen Fei did not return to Chang'an immediately.

In the next month, he visited the pastoral scenery of several nearby counties around Juancheng, allowing him to relax after traveling through time, and also consider his recent plans.

Cao Cao went east to Tao Qian, and this battle of revenge would definitely not end in a few months. Jia Xu, who was filial to the filial piety, was not in a hurry to reach a consensus with him. He might be back.

But... he suddenly felt a little unwilling to accept it.

It is true that you can learn a lot of knowledge around Jia Xu, but the Central Plains is the hottest stage of the dispute between heroes, and Jia Xu has to be filial for nearly two years. In the past two years... Do you want to be a spectator?

On the eighth day of the seventh month, Chen Fei, who was worried, returned to Juancheng again and heard the news that Cao Cao had won a great victory in Xuzhou.

"General Yu Jin captured Guangqi County! The troops headed straight to Pengcheng!"

"General Cao Ren defeated the enemy general Lu You!"

"Governor Cao won consecutive victories, and the governor of Xuzhou Tao Qian fled in a panic like Yuan Shu. Governor Cao took advantage of the opportunity to chase Tao Qian for nearly 300 miles. There were countless counties in Xuzhou who surrendered!"

Ordinary people only know that the troops in Yanzhou are advancing rapidly, so most of them are rejoicing about it. Only Chen Fei knows that the offensive and defensive battle in Xuzhou, which has lasted for many years, will kick off!

And when he visited Xun Yu again, this master of strategy with great wisdom and strategy could not hide his worries.

"Duke Zhongde is right. Governor Cao is really angry when he sends troops this time."

Xun Yu looked at the official documents on the desk and couldn't help but tremble slightly:

"Pengcheng, Langya was almost burned into ruins by war! There were no less than 100,000 soldiers and civilians who died under the sword!"

Wan Qian was worried:

"This matter must be advised, otherwise...even if the governor Cao can take Xuzhou all, it will definitely cause criticism from the world!"

Cheng Li nodded in agreement, while Mao Jie sighed, obviously everyone believed that Cao Cao's massacre of the city had exceeded the level that the world could accept.

Xun Yu had already spread out the bamboo slips, lifted his sleeves and picked up his pen, and wrote a letter of advice after a moment of thought.

The other three people either looked through the bamboo slips in silence or talked in a low voice, and the atmosphere in the hall was very quiet.

But in a moment, Xun Yu had already finished writing this hundreds of words of persuasion. He let out a long sigh, carefully checked it, and then sealed it into the book bag and called his subordinates:

"You set off immediately and be sure to hand this book over to the governor Cao!"

The tiny official took it carefully, put it into his clothes with great importance, and then lowered his head and quickly withdrew, so that he almost ran into another sector.

The doorman stabilized his body and then bent down and said:

"Report to Sima Xun and the Minister of the Shangshu Chen Fei asked for a meeting outside the door!"

-

"I heard that the governor Cao had already captured Pengcheng and Langya, and his troops were aimed directly at Tancheng, the capital of Xuzhou. Tao Gongzu fled when he heard the news. Xuzhou is just around the corner, but it is really a pleasure to congratulate!"

Chen Fei's ceremony was finished and he sat in the last seat very consciously.

Of course he noticed the expressions of the four people in the hall, and only heard Xun Yu shook his head and said:

"Weapons are the most dangerous things. No matter what victory or defeat, the people will suffer greatly, and it is not worthy of joy."

Chen Fei bowed to him:

"Xun Sima is a true gentleman, and I admire him. In the past month, I have traveled to Jiyin, Dongjun, Dongping and other places, and I deeply feel that the people's livelihood under Yanzhou is far superior to Guanzhong. Although the power of Cao's governor, there are many achievements of Xun Sima and his lords."

Xun Yu and others did not give in, but heard him continue:

"I am not talented, but I am willing to imitate you and devote myself to pacifying the world. However, I feel deeply that my civil and military shortcomings are insufficient. Fortunately, I am still young and can still concentrate on hard work. I am willing to study in the Central Plains, so that I can not only gain knowledge and communication, but also make friends. Do you think it is okay?"

Xun Yu smiled and said:

"It's natural that young people are willing to learn."

Chen Fei also smiled:

"Yan and Yu are the hearts of the Central Plains, among which Yingchuan is a place where famous scholars gather. There is a heartless request from below. I hope that Mr. Xun will write a short letter for me so that no one will pay attention to me when I visit Yingchuan."

Xun Yu's eyebrows slightly raised:

"You are the Minister of the Shangshu, how could anyone be neglected? Well, since Mr. Chen is willing to visit Yingchuan, Xun Yu is willing to become a beautiful woman."

He spread out another roll of bamboo slips, picked up the brush, and finished it in one go, and his servant carefully handed it to Chen Fei.

Since it is a "short book", the content is indeed not much, and there are only a few dozen words in front and behind. It is nothing more than Xun Yu's introduction to Chen Fei with his reputation, hoping that the major families in Yingchuan can treat each other with courtesy.

Chen Fei rolled up the bamboo slips, took them with great care, and then took out a small box from his waist and placed it gently on the table:

"I am very grateful to you when I disturb Xun Jun twice and I have also recommended the book. But I am very afraid that ordinary things will hinder the friendship between gentlemen, so I dare not act rashly. This time I was in a hurry to go east, and I only had one Lantian jade with me. I would like to express my gratitude. I would like to ask Xun Jun not to dislike him."

With Xun Yu's family background, he certainly disdained ordinary gold, silver and wealth, but giving jade was very consistent with his identity and could even be called "elegant things".

This piece of jade is of great value. It was something Li Jue took from the imperial treasury to reward Jia Xu. Before this trip, he was transferred to Chen Fei by Jia Xu, with the purpose of clearing the relationship when necessary.

Sure enough, when the servant presented the jade to Xun Yu, Xun Yu's expression changed significantly. He reached out to rub Baoyu and asked slowly:

"This...is a royal family?"

Before assisting Cao Cao, he had made the chasing order of the Shaofu, and his main responsibility was to take charge of the emperor's pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and he was naturally very familiar with royal items.

Chen Fei changed his words slightly:

"I dare not deceive. This jade was originally rewarded by Your Majesty to Doctor Jia, but the benefactor often said that in order to save his life, he could not make any comments on the chaos army and should not be worthy of this Han Dynasty treasure jade. Then he sent me to give it to a real gentleman."

Cheng Li smiled faintly:

"If Wen is not worthy of this jade, perhaps there may be no one in the world who can match him."

Xun Yu stood up from the table, closed his hands and bowed to the west:

"My memory, Xun Yu... is ashamed to receive this jade!"

His sleeves flapped outward, and a quiet fragrance slowly spread out.

-

Perhaps it was because of his short staff or because of respect for the royal family, Xun Yu, who put away Baoyu, doubled his friendship with Chen Fei from 5.

Not only that, his attitude changed from politeness to enthusiasm:

"When Dong Zhuo was in trouble in Henan, he sent troops to harass prefectures and counties many times, and Yingchuan was no exception. Many gentry moved to Hebei with their families, or avoided the chaos in Jiangnan, or even avoided the disaster in Liaodong. There were also many people in Jiaozhi. As far as I know, in addition to some members of the Xun family, there are also major families such as the Chen family in Xun, Changshe Zhong family. They are all kind to the Xun family and will inevitably treat each other with courtesy."

He paused for a moment and added:

"The Guo family in Yangdi also has a clan member who stays in this county, but their character is different from that of ordinary people... If you have free time, you can go and see each other, study the classics and history, or sit down to discuss the truth, hoping to help you."

The surnames Xun Yu mentioned are all the most well-known gentry in Yingchuan. Chen Fei smiled slightly and bowed:

"Thank you for your care, I will leave here."
