Chapter 40 Xun Yu joins
After Li Zhi returned to Xun's Mansion by carriage, he walked into the main hall and saw Xun drinking, while Guo Jiaxi and Zhicai were trying to persuade him.
"well……!"
Li Zhi sighed when he saw this situation. It had been two days. During these two days, except for going to Yang Mansion to visit Yang Qiu who was lying ill in bed, Xun had been drinking.
Even after he was drunk, it was still the same after he woke up. He even rarely ate. Seeing this situation, he felt very uncomfortable.
To be honest, he doesn't know whether he should tell him about his affairs now. If he doesn't agree with his plan then, it will cause trouble again.
However, when Li Zhi saw Xun's drunken state, it reminded him of Xun's tireless admonitions to him in the morning when he entered the palace, as well as Xun's generous speech after entering the palace.
Thinking of this, Li Zhi sighed. Seeing him like this, Li Zhi felt a little soft-hearted.
"Brother Wen Ruo is going to Yang Mansion today. How is Mr. Yang doing?"
Hearing Li Zhi ask him, Xun Zui smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"What else can I do? The doctor said it's a heart disease. Of course, heart disease requires heart medicine. But now Cao Jie is still alive and well, how to make medicine?"
Having said this, he laughed bitterly again, then picked up the wine jar and started drinking.
Seeing him like this, Li Zhi hesitated for a long time before speaking to him.
"If there is a chance to kill Cao Jie, brother Wen Ruo, would you be willing to help me?"
"Bang...!"
When Xun heard this, he stood up immediately, but almost fell down because he drank too much.
But he didn't care about this, looking at Li Zhi with bright eyes, even if the wine jar fell aside, he didn't care.
He walked up quickly, grabbed Li's sleeve, and asked him eagerly
"My dear brother, what you say is true. Don't try to trick me."
"well……!"
Seeing how eager he was, Li Zhi sighed.
"Brother Wen Ruo, let me go first, take it seriously, take it seriously!"
Xun became even more anxious when he heard that he had a solution.
"My dear brother, come quickly!"
Seeing him being so helpless, Li Zhi shook his head and said.
"Brother Wen Ruo, do you still remember the plan proposed by Brother Fengxiao when we first came to Luoyang?"
Xun was stunned when he heard this, and then his expression changed drastically.
"Brother Xingzhi said... to ambush Cao Jie...?!"
Speaking of this, his face was struggling, and he was a little undecided in his heart.
Although he wanted to refuse, he couldn't say it when he thought of the miserable state of Yang Gong lying on the hospital bed.
He stayed there for a long time, and finally let go of Li Zhi's sleeves in despair, walked to the seat and sat down, muttering to himself.
"Why is this so? Why is this so...!"
Seeing that Xun was still a little confused at this time, Li Zhi was also a little helpless, thinking: "Please let the general go, instead of provoking him, let's see me provoking him."
"Brother Wen Ruo's reputation is more important than the Han Dynasty? More important than Yang Gong's comfort? More important than the people of the world?"
When Xun heard this, he looked at Li Zhi blankly and said nothing for a long time.
After a long time, Xun thought of Yang Qiu's voice and appearance on the hospital bed, gritted his teeth, took a long breath, and asked Li Zhi.
"My dear brother Xing, what I said makes sense. If you need me in this matter, please feel free to ask me, but I will never refuse anything you can do!"
Li Zhi was overjoyed when he heard this. The last piece of wood was finally put together, and his certainty about the matter instantly increased to more than 90%.
"Brother Wen Ruo has great righteousness. Brother Wen Ruo is in charge of His Majesty's civil affairs. Can he get a blank edict without others knowing about it?"
After finishing speaking, Li Zhi looked at Xun expectantly.
"this……."
Xun was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then thought for a moment, and then said thoughtfully.
"Although the edict is kept tightly, if I think of some ways, I can get an edict."
Having said this, he looked at Li Zhi and asked with doubt: "Xing Zhixian brother is going to use the imperial edict to lure Cao Jie out of the palace and then execute him?"
Li Zhi shook his head and explained to Xun.
"I have other ways to lure Cao Jie out of the palace. Let Brother Wenruo get this edict, but it has other uses."
When he said this, he paused for a moment, a little thoughtful. Then his eyes lit up and he asked Xun eagerly.
"When Brother Wen Ruo goes to get the edict, can you get a few more? That's so you're prepared."
When Xun heard this, although he didn't know why he wanted so many edicts, he still nodded.
"This matter is not difficult. I will use a little trick to get a few answers. It's just about punishing Cao Jie. Are you confident about it?"
Li Zhi was overjoyed when he heard this. When he asked him if he was sure, he said confidently.
"Brother Wen Ruo, don't worry. I'm not 100% sure, but I'm still 90% sure."
Hearing this, Xun nodded. Through these days, he also had an understanding of Li Zhi's character. He knew that Li Zhi was a cautious and steady person and would definitely not speak big words.
"Since Brother Xing is so confident, I won't say anything more. When I go to duty tomorrow, I will go get the edict."
After Xun finished speaking, he suddenly realized that because of the past two days, he
Because I was drunk and dreaming of death, I could no longer smell the smell on my body.
Originally, he was so heartbroken that he didn't care even if he found out about it, but now hope arose in his heart, so his expression changed drastically after he noticed it.
After all, he was a bit of a germaphobe, so he couldn't bear it and bowed his hands to the three of them.
"My dear brothers, wait a moment. Go down and take a shower and change clothes. You'll be back later!"
After finishing speaking, he hurriedly walked to the back hall.
The three people left behind looked at each other, and then they all laughed.
Guo Jia laughed and said, "When will brother Wenruo change his habit of being clean? But he hasn't washed himself for two days, so he is so nervous.
If something urgent happens in the future and I don’t have time to wash up for a few days, let’s see what Brother Wen Ruo will do then!”
When Li Zhi heard this, he smiled and said nothing. He also agreed with Guo Jia's words in his heart.
You must know that the future will be a chaotic time, and marching troops to fight will be even more common.
When Xun Yi was a military advisor, he would not have much time to wash him. Being clean was a good thing, but having mysophobia was a big obstacle.
At this moment, Xi Zhicai, who was silent on the side, asked Li Zhi with an incomprehensible expression: "Your Majesty took away Brother Xing's brewing recipe. Did Brother Xing ever hold grudge against Your Majesty?"
Moreover, how will Brother Xing rely on recruiting disaster victims in the future?
How do you want to deal with the more than a thousand victims of the disaster in Guojia Village?"
Li Zhi smiled teasingly when he heard this, and said pointedly: "I only promised to hand over the brewing method to Your Majesty, but I didn't say that I would stop brewing.
Moreover, this brewing method is just a seed. Since Your Majesty is willing to work hard to cultivate this seed for Your Majesty, what can I do if Your Majesty makes some money?
In time, the seed will grow into a towering tree, and after it bears fruit, it is time to pick it.
As for the disaster victims, I don’t know how to make wine. When I was in Guojiacun, I also had some certainty in my mind about the few things I mentioned.
We will be able to do it after we go back, and then we will naturally have a lot of money, so I don’t have to worry about me abandoning the thousands of victims because I don’t have money.”
Hearing this, Xi Zhi felt a little relieved, but then he became very puzzled and asked curiously: "Why does Brother Xing say that the method of making wine is just a seed? Can you help me clarify it?"
Hearing this, Li Zhi shook his head with a smile.
"Don't say it, don't say it...! When the time comes, the wise and talented brother will naturally know."
Seeing that he didn't want to say anything more, Xi Zhicai didn't ask any more questions, but his expression was a bit thoughtful.
At this moment, Guo De's voice came from outside.
