My subjects are too rebellious!

As Qin Chuan finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire hall changed.

An air of looking down on the world emanated from him.

He waved his hand and said in a loud voice: "Fengxiao, at the banquet today, I have announced publicly that I will grant Meng De the right to establish a vassal state overseas. This matter is of great importance and requires the assistance of people who are both wise and brave. You and Xun Yu are both my loyal ministers, so I will entrust this important task to you two. You two need to work together to help Meng De gain a firm foothold overseas, expand the territory for the Wu Dynasty, and enhance the prestige of our country!"

Guo Jia and Xun Yu were both shocked when they heard this. They stepped forward, bowed, and responded in unison: "We obey your orders and will not let your majesty down!"

Qin Chuan nodded with satisfaction. He believed in the ability and loyalty of Guo Jia and Xun Yu, so he waved his hand again, signaling the two to retreat and prepare.

Before leaving the hall, they bowed to Qin Chuan again and then retreated.

.........

Is there anyone in this world who can judge the situation and fight without competing?

Of course there is.

First of all, his name is Xun Yu, not Gou Huo!

Or, you can call him Lord Yan.

That’s because, in the eternal night, even a faint light will make you involuntarily follow the light.

Xun Yu was not a royalist, but a pro-Han person. He did not care how Cao Cao treated Emperor Xian of Han. However, when Cao Cao wanted to make himself king, Xun Yu disagreed.

Cao Cao sent the empty box not to kill Xun Yu, but to tell Xun Yu that the Han Dynasty was empty and had nothing left, and to tell Xun Yu not to be blindly loyal.

Xun Yu also understood what Cao Cao meant, but Xun Yu was blindly loyal. It was impossible for him to betray the Han Dynasty. Even if he died, he would still be a Han minister.

Cao Cao was heartbroken over Xun Yu's death, and finally gave up the idea of ​​committing suicide. He still had no suicide until his death.

Xun Yu chose Cao Cao because they shared the same ideals.

At the beginning, Cao Cao's ambition was not to become an emperor and bring peace, but to bring peace as a Han official.

This is consistent with Xun Yu's philosophy.

Later, Cao Cao was crowned king and given the Nine Gifts. What do you think he would do next?

Cao Cao still wanted to bring peace, but it was no longer for the Han officials.

This is different from Xun Yu’s philosophy.

Many people say that Cao Cao had no choice but to do so because he had no way back.

But is it really impossible to remain loyal to the emperor and bring peace to the world?

The answer is yes.

It’s just that the cost is higher and the road is more difficult.

But it was precisely because the road was difficult that Xun Yu approved of Cao Cao who chose this thorny road.

Cao Cao became cowardly, or he forgot, or he became obsessed with royal power and wealth. In the final analysis, Cao Cao forgot his original intention, but Xun Yu still remembered it.

Therefore, those with different ideals cannot work together.

Xun Yu's loyalty to the Han Dynasty, in addition to his own persistence, also represented the thoughts of some aristocratic families and officials at that time. Perhaps they were not the mainstream, but they were definitely a force.

Cao Cao's main team at the beginning was the team assembled for him by Xun Yu. After 20 years, some left for the sake of Han ministers' ideals, but some stayed.

Life may be worthless, but when you really see someone truly giving their life to stick to something, you will also become firm.

Today there is Xun Yu who died for his loyalty, and tomorrow people will line up to hang Cao Cao.

As a result, he was the master strategist who extended the life of the Han Dynasty for several more decades.

Speaking of strategists, Xun Yu was the strategist of the Han Dynasty, not Cao Cao.

That's what I said. I have never been loyal to anyone. I am loyal to this country.

I saw a question during the Mid-Autumn Festival before. If there were eight mooncakes with normal fillings, standard specifications, non-toxic and edible, who from the Three Kingdoms period would you invite to eat them?

Answer: Xun Yu. It was placed in the food box in the 17th year of Jian'an.

My tears suddenly came out.

I once read a comment that said Xun Yu could tolerate Cao Cao being Huo Guang, but could never tolerate Cao Cao being Wang Mang. This is very appropriate.

At that time, the Han Dynasty was on the verge of collapse. It was like a broken house with leaks on all sides. In such a precarious situation, a strong-handed person was needed to step forward, and he had to hold absolute power in order to turn the tide.

Xun Yu believed that Cao Cao was the man who could save the collapsing empire, so he assisted Cao Cao all the way. He didn't care even when Cao Cao really became a powerful official who was arrogant and had no respect for the emperor.

To put it bluntly, he just wanted to revive the Han Dynasty. In addition, Emperor Xian of Han at that time lacked the courage of a heroic ruler, so Xun Yu had no confidence in him at all.

With Xun Yu's death, no matter whether Cao Cao intended to harm him or not, he could not survive.

"What is Xun Yu?"

"Wen Ruo, your Majesty likes to use incense."

"Can you be more specific?"

"Yingchuan, a scholar, is upset."

"Can you be more specific?"

"Wang Zuo, you have good manners, and you can take care of Zifang."

"I still don't understand."

"Hanchen."

All these high-ranking officials are incompetent Han ministers, and none of them have any integrity, except you, the Lord!

Your Excellency, you are a gentleman!

I'm not just writing nonsense, nor am I expressing my personal opinion. I simply want to write about Xun Yu and write about him well.

But...I thought about it over and over again, but I still don't know how to start.

..........

After Qin Chuan saw off Guo Jia and Xun Yu, he slowly turned around.

He walked back to his bedroom with steady steps.

The moonlight shines through the window lattice and falls on the floor, adding a touch of softness to the quiet night.

As soon as you step into the bedroom, a faint scent of incense hits your nose, making you feel peaceful.

The maid had been waiting by the side. When she saw Qin Chuan coming back, she immediately stepped forward, holding soft clothes in her hands, with a gentle smile on her face, and whispered softly: "Your Majesty, I will help you change clothes and go to bed."

Qin Chuan nodded slightly and let the maid carefully take off his brocade clothes and change him into comfortable pajamas.

After changing his clothes, Qin Chuan sat on the edge of the bed and the maid made the bedding for him.

After making sure everything was just right, she said softly, "Your Majesty, it's late, you should go to bed early."

Qin Chuan smiled slightly, patted the bed gently, and signaled the maid that she could leave.

The maid bowed, said her leave quietly, left the bedroom, and closed the door.

As the door closed gently, the bedroom returned to silence again.

Qin Chuan sat alone on the bed, looking at the moonlight outside the window, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.

After a long time, he slowly lay down and closed his eyes.

Soon, he fell into sleep.

In his dream, he stood on a vast land, surrounded by endless mountains and boundless plains. In the sky, the sun and the moon shone brightly.

In this land, there are many cities, many merchants, and the traffic is bustling.

In the farmlands, the rice is golden and the fruits are abundant. The farmers work hard, their faces filled with the joy of the harvest.

The streets are bustling with people, all smiling.

Children were playing and laughing in the streets.

In this dream, Qin Chuan also saw those vassal states far away overseas.

They also enjoyed the grace of the Wu Dynasty and maintained close contacts with it.

At this moment, wherever the sun and the moon shine, it is the territory of the Wu Dynasty.
