I am Li Shimin of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 34
"When did the big man get out of you humble people? It's really embarrassing for me, a big man."

Li Shimin couldn't bear it anymore, he stood up and said righteously: "Since Emperor Wu, I have been famous for being brave and tough. The general Wei Qing swept Mobei, and the barbarians were powerless to fight back; the champion Hou Huo Qubing sealed the wolf Juxu, what an honor it is to run thousands of miles and become a god in one battle. When all the foreigners saw us Han people, they called out to be a hero, a man. Wrapped in horse leather, dying for the country is a memory that flows in the blood of the Han people. How did you get into your mouth? I only know how to survive, what is the blood of a big man?"

Two students in the crowd applauded secretly, feeling that this person is upright and a rare hero.

Zhang Rui, who was sitting on the side, was also deeply attracted by Li Shimin's heroism, and his eyes were full of admiration.

Yang Tingjie was so angry that his lungs exploded. This is an ignorant person who came out of nowhere. He dared to fight against himself. It was too rampant. Besides, do you know what benevolence and morality are?

He said a little angrily: "Does it have to make the Hu and Han clansmen meet each other, and there are countless casualties before they are willing to give up? I am a country of great Han etiquette, rich in the world, Hu people are vulgar, shameless, and my country is based on benevolence and righteousness. Isn’t it worth taking a step back in exchange for the peace of the world? Could it be said that blood flowed into rivers and countless people lost their lives because of it, and is it called a hero?”

Li Shimin said with a facial expression: "Big men must have backbone and blood. We are not sheep, we are hungry wolves, or tigers. Even if the Hu people have an army of one hundred thousand or one million, if they attack us, as long as we have a breath, we will never surrender. Even if a big man lives and dies on the battlefield, he will never kneel down to survive. Life is what I want, and righteousness is what I want. I can’t have both, and those who sacrifice their lives for righteousness; I have never regretted it, do you understand?"

"I don't think this scholar's conference is anything more than that, please leave." After saying that, Li Shimin left without looking back.

Everyone was moved by this man's aura, his patriotism, and his courage to risk his life in pursuit of national righteousness made all the scholars feel amazed and ashamed.

Later, a scholar from an aristocratic family who knew him said: "This person is Li Shimin, the magistrate of Mayi County, the grandson of Li Ying, the head of the "Eight Talents", and the son of Li Zan. He has made great contributions to the battle of Mayi in Bingzhou..."

Zhang Rui looked at Li Shimin from a distance, and felt that this man was so stalwart, he had the world in his heart, and he was a real hero.The inherent heroism is something that these white-faced scholars do not have, and a heart has secretly belonged to them.

When Li Shimin walked to the door and was about to ride a horse, two scribes stopped him, kneeling in front of the horse, with excited expressions and adoring eyes.

Li Shimin quickly got off his horse, helped the two of them up, and asked very puzzled: "Why do you two do this great gift, please get up quickly!"

General, next Xi Zhicai, from Yingchuan;
General, I am Xu Shu, a native of Yingchuan.

Unexpectedly, one of these two young people is Xi Zhicai and the other is Xu Shu.These two people are all-round talents who can run the army when they are on horseback and calm the people when they are off their horses. Li Shimin thought to himself, this is probably a gift from heaven.

It turned out that the two were from the same hometown, and they were both children of poor families. They made an appointment to go out to study together. When they arrived in Bingzhou, they heard that there was a scholar's meeting here, and they wanted to come and join in the fun.

At that time, Xi Zhicai was highly valued by Cao Cao. He made suggestions for Cao Cao and worked hard. Unfortunately, he died young. After his death, Xun Yu recommended Guo Jia to Cao Cao.

There is also a saying that Zhicai never dies, and Guo Jia does not come out, which shows that this person is by no means an ordinary person.His resourcefulness is comparable to that of Guo Fengxiao. If this person is alive, then Cao Cao will be like a tiger with wings added.

Not to mention Xu Shu, who is comparable to a crouching dragon and a young phoenix.This person was born in a poor family. He took revenge for others in his early years and changed his name to Xu Shu after he was rescued.Later, he took refuge in Jingzhou with Shi Guangyuan from the same county, and had close contacts with Sima Hui, Zhuge Liang, and Cuizhou Pingping.

With Xu Shu, Li Shimin has the opportunity to contact the wise sage Zhuge Liang through this person. Wasn't Zhuge Liang introduced to Liu Bei by him back then?

When Xu Shu went south, because his mother was captured by Cao Cao, he bid farewell to Liu Bei and entered Cao Ying.If it wasn't for his mother, this person would definitely shine brightly in the history books.

Hearing these two names, Li Shimin was very pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect to meet these two great talents in this boring scholar meeting, and he immediately wanted to recruit them.

Li Shimin clasped his fists and said, "I've heard of these two virtuous names for a long time, and seeing them today is really a blessing for three lives, and it's enough to comfort my whole life."

The two also hurriedly returned the gift, and Xu Shu said excitedly: I heard people say that the barbarian who made a lot of noise this year was the general who planned strategies and offered strategies to defeat the enemy. The prefect of Huangfu called you a unicorn. At first sight, indeed, there is no one worthy of fame! "

Xi Zhicai also nodded in agreement: "Yuan Zhi's words are true. If we hadn't met today, I'm afraid we would regret it for the rest of our lives. Zhicai has read poetry and books since he was a child, and knows a thing or two about the art of war. Do your best for the common people of the world. If you don’t give up, I’m willing to do the work of a dog and a horse, and I ask the general to make it happen.” Said Xi Zhicai and knelt down.

Seeing this, Xu Shu quickly knelt down and said, "Shu is also willing to join the general's command, and I will be willing to do anything."

Li Shimin was very excited when he saw that the two great talents were willing to join him, and they were the talents in internal affairs and strategy that he lacked.

Then he took the two of them's hands and said, "Let's go, go drink today, we won't return until we're drunk, haha."

To get two famous counselors at once, Li Shimin could almost wake up from sleep laughing.

After Li Shimin left, the Scholars Conference gradually calmed down, and the atmosphere was not as enthusiastic as before. This was the first time in so many years.

All the students also left one after another full of thoughts. Seeing this, Linghu Yu was also very helpless. Without self-deprecating, he had done the worst this time.

Of course, the most embarrassing thing for him was that he spent a lot of money to invite Yang Tingjie to meet him. He intended to curry favor with this person and give him a chance to make a name for himself in Bingzhou, but he didn't realize that it was a window screen wipe.

He didn't dare to look directly at him, so he could only bow his head and bow, asking his senior brother to forgive him.

Yang Tingjie is a narrow-minded person, seeing that today he has been refuted successively by Li Shimin and Li Shimin, he lost all face, and was very angry.

He secretly made up his mind that the two of them must look good, and he didn't even have a good look at Linghu Yu.

It turned out that he had already asked someone about it, and the student at the beginning was Xi Zhicai.

He left angrily, and before he left, he glanced at the pavilion, seeing that the beauty in his heart had disappeared, and the resentment in his heart deepened a bit.

Yang Tingjie has a deep affection for Zhang Rui, she won't marry because of right and wrong.It's just his wishful thinking.Zhang Rui is not interested in him.

Originally, he wanted to show off his talents through this scholar meeting, but he didn't expect to be humiliated by the two of them.
