The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

Chapter 127 Yingchuan Friend, Came with Mother
As soon as the new year is over, the first month of the second year will come quietly.

The weather is still bone-chillingly cold.

If Xi Yu remembers correctly, this period happened to be the most severe Little Ice Age in history.

And throughout the dynasties and dynasties, whenever you encounter a small ice river.

A series of impacts on the population economy are extremely obvious and serious.

These Little Ice Ages basically appeared at the end of the dynasty.

It first appeared at the turn of Shang and Zhou Dynasties.

The huge Shang Dynasty was more or less replaced by the Zhou Dynasty.

Of course, among these, the reason of Little Binghe may not be the most serious, but he is a very important factor.

And the second ice age that followed was the era of the end of Han Dynasty.

Little glaciers bring with them a litany of weather factors.

This is more or less an indirect factor of the Yellow Turban Uprising, and the princes who followed immediately fought and slaughtered each other.

It was the last straw that crushed the entire Han Dynasty.

And the third time was the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period at the end of Tang Dynasty.

It was also a very chaotic and dark time.

And whenever the Little Ice Age is encountered, the population on this land will begin to decline on a large scale.

The Little Ice Age that is closest to later generations is the Little Ice Age of the Ming Dynasty, and the continuation of time is a cutscene.

Basically the entire Ming Dynasty was spent during the Little Ice Age.

It may not be obvious at first, but every year the weather is actually getting cooler.

In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the impact of some things, natural disasters and other factors became more intuitive.

The disasters in various places forced the people to revolt one after another.

In the end, the entire dynasty was dragged down because of the Little Ice Age.

Of course, the factor of the demise of the Ming Dynasty, perhaps more important is the factor of those officials.

Few people think about the weather factor.

But in later generations, Xi Yu, who had read the research specially, knew it clearly.

Of the four Little Ice Ages, the Ming Dynasty was actually not the most influential.

If it is said that the most serious impact was the Little Ice Age at the end of the Han Dynasty.

Because of the decades-long separatism of the princes and the political situation of the Three Kingdoms, it has been difficult for the population in this period to recover.

Right now, although Xi Yu has brought out things like Shi Nie ahead of time.

But this thing is only a slight relief after all.

In the Xijia's backyard, as soon as Xi Yu came out of the house, Cai Yan behind him took the initiative to put a cloak on Xi Yu.

Cai Yan carefully went back and forth to help Xi Yu organize the clothes.

Xi Yu couldn't help but look in the direction of the Xuchang government office.

After the New Year's Eve, although the weather is still a bit cold, the craftsmen in Xuchang City have already started to build the imperial capital and some fortifications.

Even the school that was originally planned has also begun to be built.

As Xi Yu who proposed the plan, he naturally cared about the school affairs very much.

"Husband, it's a bit cold, be careful!"

Cai Yan tied the thin belt on Xi Yu's body, with a hint of concern on his face.

Xi Yu smiled softly.

With his physique, things like cold and heat can only be said to have negligible impact on him, but he is still very useful for his wife's concern.

"Don't worry, Yan'er, you still don't know about your husband's body!"

Can't help laughing, Xi Yu didn't pay much attention to it, now the school has started construction.

Once the school is established and wants to recruit students, the most important thing is the school's faculty.

But now, the gentry headed by Xu Changnei, although there is no way to stop Xi Yu's vision for the school.

But on the teacher's side, I want to make the school fully operational.

The existence of these gentry clans still had some influence.

In this era, knowledge is still controlled by a few people after all, and these so-called few people are naturally the big Han gentry today.

"Husband, if you can't find a teacher, I can..."

Cai Yan looked up at Xi Yu.

As someone who shared the same bed, she naturally knew how much Xi Yu valued the school.

The recruitment of teachers seems to be a little hindered now, so she can't help but want to do something for Xi Yu.

Hearing what the people around him said, Xi Yu turned to look at Cai Yan.

Reaching out to put the opponent's small hand in the palm of his hand, Xi Yu patted it lightly.

"Don't worry, just trust me!"

"With your collection of more than 4000 books, it is already a great help to my husband!"

It has to be said that the collection of books left by Cai Yong is extremely attractive after all.

It will be some time before the school wants to be finished.

He is in no hurry.

At worst, go in and be a teacher by yourself, even with Xun Yu and others, he has a way to pull them in.

Xi Yu tidied up his clothes and took Dian Wei to the Xu County Government Office.

at the same time.

Outside Xuchang City, a very ordinary carriage was slowly passing by the gate of Xuchang.

There was a young man leaning on the carriage, holding the hemp rope in one hand, and looking up at the imperial capital in front of him with his eyes.

“Really a nice place!”

The young man murmured, the carriage had passed the newly built city wall of Xuchang.

"Feng Xiao, thank you for your hard work!"

At this time, a slightly soft voice sounded from inside the carriage.

Hearing the sound, Guo Jia outside the carriage couldn't help but straightened himself up.

"Auntie, you're welcome. Since Yuan Zhi entrusted you to me, I will naturally treat you as my mother. These things are not hard work!"

He responded to Xu Shu's mother in the carriage, but Guo Jia didn't take it seriously.

"Yuanzhi has no news recently, so I don't know about him!"

Speaking of Xu Shu, Xu's mother in the carriage couldn't help but look a little sad.

My son killed someone and fled, but now there is no news.

If Guo Jia hadn't taken care of her these past few years, it would be difficult for her to survive in this troubled world as a woman.

"Don't worry, Auntie, that kid Yuanzhi is smart, and he will be fine!"

Guo Jia comforted, but the corners of his mouth could not help but pull down.

Damn Xu Shu, he ran away after killing someone, and the news of these years is even more pitiful.

Now that the world has changed, based on his understanding of Xu Shu, that guy must be fine.

I started talking about helping the other party take care of my mother for three years.

Now three years have passed, but there is no news from Xu Shu.

After three years and three years, Guo Jia is almost numb.

Originally, he was alone, and he didn't feel much pressure. With his family background, he could still deal with it somewhat.

However, in recent years, natural disasters and man-made disasters have continued, and grain harvests in various places have begun to fail.

Even with him, it seemed a bit difficult to live on.

What's more, I don't know what happened in the past two years. The weather in this winter is getting colder every day.

Originally, Guo Jia thought about waiting.

But who let him hear the news in Yingchuan a few days ago.

What kind of drama is Fengyi, and he even came up with something like floor heating, which can be like a warm day in the cold winter.

This made Guo Jia greedy.

In addition, a few days ago, that fellow Xi Zhicai wrote to invite him to come to Xuchang.

Think before and after.

Guo Jia made a decision.

This cold winter is really hard.

Although he was young, he was not in good health, and he couldn't stand the cold.

What's more, there is Xu Shu's mother.

After thinking about it, Guo Jia still found a carriage, and brought Xu Shu's mother over to join his good friend.

The newly built Xuchang City was built in contrast to the old capital of Luoyang.

From the outside, the whole city still has the aura of Luoyang City back then.

A few days ago, the imperial court issued a recruitment order, and now there are not a few scholars who come and go to Xuchang.

There are people coming and going on the streets of Xuchang.

The six lanes are divided, and the vehicles travel on the left and right.

Guo Jia has already straightened up from the leaning position, looking up and down at everything around Xu Chang.

Perhaps it was just after the New Year's Eve, even though it was a bit cold, the atmosphere on the street was extremely lively.

There are endless greetings from business travellers.

Guo Jia narrowed his eyes.

Unexpectedly, in just a few years, the changes in the entire Cao Ying have been so obvious.

When he defected to Yuan Shao at the beginning, he naturally wanted to turn his career around in today's era, but only after seeing Yuan Shao's true nature clearly.

Guo Jiacai dispelled the plan in his heart. When he was in Yanzhou, he did not agree to the invitation of Xi Zhicai and others.

And for a few years, the entire Cao Ying has indeed been advancing step by step.

It's better than he imagined.

Looking at the current situation, Cao Ying must be one of the princes who can make a fortune in this troubled world in the whole Han Dynasty.

After learning the location of the Xifu from the passers-by, Guo Jia arrived at the Xifu quickly on his horse.

……

On the other side, Xi Yu had just arrived at the government office when someone notified his family that someone was visiting.

"I think it's Guo Fengxiao who's here!"

Guo Jia came to the matter, and Xi Zhicai on the other side also received the news.

At this time, Xi Zhicai was a little excited, he got up and bid farewell to the crowd, and hurriedly planned to rush back.

Xi Yu paused.

When he came to the government office this time, he originally intended to check the situation of the scholars recruited by the Recruitment Order, and to select and see if there were anyone who could be a school teacher.

Now I heard Guo Jia actually came.

Xi Yu couldn't help but glanced at Xi Zhicai, and Xi Zhicai glanced at Xi Yu at the same time.

Xi Yu understood.

Although my elder brother doesn't show too much on weekdays, the other party still cares about his younger brother very much.

The school is now newly built.

Guo Jia came here at this time, and among them, Xi Zhicai's role was extremely obvious.

After Guo Jia came, Xi Yu was not in a hurry to check the situation on the recruitment order, but turned around and planned to return to the courtyard with Xi Zhicai.

"Bong Xiao is here!"

Xun Yu in the main hall was also a little surprised. Over the years, he had persuaded Guo Jia to come to Cao Ying, but the latter never agreed.

I never thought that I would come to Xuchang now.

"Zhicai, after I finish handling today's government affairs, I will visit the theater later!"

Xun Yu said something to the two playwright brothers, but he was not in a hurry to follow Guo Jia together.

Now that Guo Jia came here, after all, he was looking for Xi Zhicai at the first time, so they must have something to discuss.

Xun Yu is a sensible person, he naturally knows in his heart, speaking of it, his family nephew is coming soon.

Today's Xuchang is more lively than before.

……

After leaving the government office, Xi Zhicai and Xi Yu walked side by side.

"Brother, that guy Feng Xiao came here, you invited him!"

Glancing at Xi Zhicai, Xi Yu asked with a casual smile.

According to Guo Jia's temperament, under the current situation, this guy would more or less choose to come to Cao Ying.

If it wasn't for Xi Zhicai's invitation, it would definitely not appear now.

"That's right!"

Xi Zhicai nodded: "I corresponded with Feng Xiao for a long time years ago, and you and I also know that guy is obviously talented, but now he has no intention of showing it."

"It's nothing more than arrogance and arrogance!"

This matter is easy to say, with Guo Jia's temperament.

If you want to play, you have to choose to play when you are in danger, but right now Cao Ying is thriving.

One less Guo Jia, one more Guo Jia, the impact is really not big.

Just like Guo Jia defected to Yuan Shao back then.

Yuan Shao, who has four generations and three lords, has too many advisers who go to seek refuge. With Guo Jia's status, it is really difficult to appear in front of Yuan Shao.

What's more, Yuan Shao is a guy who attaches great importance to reputation.

In the final analysis, it is to attach importance to noble families, and the Guo family has Guo Tu, so it is naturally difficult for Guo Jia to catch the other party's eyes.

Even if there is a talent in the body, there is no place to display it.

As for the current Cao Ying, the situation is similar.

There are also many counselors under Cao Cao's command now.

But the only difference is that Cao Cao doesn't care about whether he is from a poor family or not. What Cao Cao values ​​is ability.

According to the original process.

Xi Zhicai had passed away due to physical reasons last year, and Xi Zhicai, the leader in Cao Ying, was gone.

Xun Yu took the initiative to recommend Guo Jia to Cao Cao.

But now, Xi Zhicai has no physical problems at all, and has become Cao Ying's most important figure.

Being in the post of Zhongshu Ling, Xun Yu will not invite Guo Jia like the original process.

"Thank you, brother!"

Xi Yu knew that when Xi Zhi invited Guo Jia, it was almost as if he was helping him and Xi Yu was looking for helpers.

After all, even he didn't know about Guo Jia's coming.

Not to mention Cao Cao!
"You and I are brothers, since it is your business, how can you not consider it as a brother!"

"The lintel of an actor depends entirely on you and me!"

"Furthermore, now your name is much louder than being a brother!"

Xi Zhicai couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Why did he choose Cao Cao? One reason is that he can display his talents.

On the other hand, it is natural to want to revive the lintel.

Since the decline of Xijia, Xi Zhicai's only thought is to make his family shine again.

But today's dramatists, although he and Xi Yu are the only ones, are no worse than those wealthy families.

"Speaking of Feng Xiao, I guess, this guy can't hold back anymore!"

"Nowadays the winter is bitterly cold, as far as that guy's body is concerned, you and I can't understand, how can that guy resist, not to mention, he also helps Xu Shu take care of his mother!"

"That guy heard that when he corresponded with me a few days ago, he was asking about your floor heating between the lines!"

The two were joking all the way, and not long after, they had returned to the opera house.

The two of Xi Zhicai crossed the corridor all the way, and when they reached the main hall of Xijia, they raised their eyes and saw a figure lying on the main hall of Xijia.

"This guy really doesn't treat himself as an outsider at all!"

Seeing the situation in front of him, the corners of Xi Zhicai's mouth could not help but curl up.

Xi Yu could see the joy in his brother's eyebrows.

Speaking of the relationship with Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia are closer than him.

The two of them are like a gourd, split from the middle, each person has a gourd, one goes from east to west, and the other goes from south to north.

……

At this time, I heard movement outside the main hall.

Guo Jia, who was lying in the hall, moved his body, directly leaving a back for the two opera brothers.

It's like sleeping.

Xi Zhicai shook his head and smiled, followed two or three steps up, raised his foot and kicked Guo Jia's rear.

"hiss!"

"What an Xi Zhicai, that's how he treats visitors!"

Guo Jia, who had been kicked, turned over and stood up, fixed his eyes on Xi Zhicai, and grinned his teeth, without the demeanor of a scholar at all.

Xi Zhicai was not polite to the other party either.

Sitting directly on the ground of the main hall, he grinned and laughed.

"Heh, how can there be a guest lying in the main hall of the main house, using himself as an object to block the way?"

The two exchanged a few words with each other, but then they returned to normal.

Xi Yu sat cross-legged on the other side and looked at Guo Jia.

The other party is still not much different from before, but compared to a few years ago, the beard under his chin is a little longer.

"How is Auntie?"

After getting serious, Xi Zhicai was the first to ask Guo Jia.

The latter grinned softly, "It's in the back hall now!"

"Speaking of which, the floor heating made by Fengyi is really amazing!"

Guo Jia touched the slightly warm ground with his hands, as if he couldn't put it down.

"If I knew there was such a warm thing, I should have come earlier!"

Although this is what he said, Xi Yu and Xi Zhicai didn't care at all.

"In the future, what are your plans?"

Xi Zhicai asked Guo Jia.

If the other party had plans to serve Cao Ying, he would naturally help Guo Jia recommend him in front of Cao Cao.

With his recommendation, some things will naturally be easier.

Hearing what Xi Zhicai said, Guo Jia followed suit and shook his head.

"No no no!"

"I look at the world today, and the rise of Cao Ying is already unstoppable. I don't have much influence!"

"Looking at the lords of the world, Yuan Shao of Hebei has no plans. With his background, this person may be able to become a lord along the way, but it is difficult to achieve great things!"

"Yuan Shu in Huainan is eager for quick success and quick profit, and he is not worried about it. He is expected to set himself on fire soon."

"Liu Biao of Jingzhou, more than conservative, less aggressive!"

"And the newly emerged Jiangdong Sun Ce is a bit interesting, but after all, he just lacks some momentum, and the future is still unknown!"

"As for Bingzhou Lu Bu, a dog in mourning, and Yizhou Liu Zhang, a pool of stagnant water is like a turtle in a urn!"

"The structure of the world is so clear, I guess your brothers can see it clearly too!"

Guo Jia smiled, opened his mouth and yawned. For him, he still prefers difficult things.

Taking advantage of the wind like this made him lose too much interest.
