One thousand one hundred and forty-four tears, flowed down
Yuan Si was the prime minister of Chen who was arranged to be in Chen when Yuan Shu was still alive.
Later, when Yuan Shu became emperor, Guo Peng led his army south to attack Yuan Shu, Yuan Si was frightened and did not resist. He chose to surrender and surrendered to the State of Chen.
Later, Yuan Shu and his family were executed by Guo Peng because of great political stains. Including Yuan Shao's previous group was tortured by Yuan Shu and more than half of them died, the Yuan family in Runan completely declined.
The reason why the Yuan clan in Runan declined rather than perished was because of the existence of Yuan Si.
He is the only remaining male representative in the Yuan family. Everyone else is dead, only he is still alive, and he lives quite well under Guo Peng's rule.
There are many reasons why Guo Peng saved his life.
For example, although Yuan Shu was killed by Guo Peng for his open rebellion and murder of the three clans, he really couldn't bear to kill the Yuan family because Guo Peng was a nostalgic person.
So he kept the cowardly, incompetent, timid and afraid Yuan Si, and let him live on behalf of the Yuan family in Runan.
For example, when Guo Peng needed Yuan Si, when he needed it, he would do something for him in the name of the last survivor of the Yuan family in Runan and the master of family classics so that Guo Peng could make his reputation justified.
It should be said not to say it. After the Yuan family in Runan was almost destroyed by Guo Peng, only Yuan Si's branch was still surviving.
In order to survive better, the family members worked with Yuan Si to do something for Guo Peng as much as possible.
For example, helping Guo Peng guide students in their studies, being a doctor of the Book of Changes, etc., when scholars avoided Luoyang Imperial College, they went to Luoyang Imperial College to help support the storefront.
In addition, because his identity is very special, Guo Peng also needs him to play the role of a person who waves the flag and shouts during the Great Punctuation Revolution.
If necessary, Guo Peng needs Yuan Si to give up all inheritance, everything he manages, everything he expects and has, and shout for Guo Peng.
He will definitely do this.
Moreover, Guo Peng would not let him suffer any losses. Of course, the benefits he should give must be given, even if it is a political marriage.
The appeal of a leading family is beyond the reach of hundreds of second- and third-rate little gentry.
Thinking of this, Guo Peng decided to call Yuan Si in front of him and discuss the matter with him.
Over the years, he has raised Yuan Si's family with delicious food and drinks. Now it is time for Yuan Si to repay him a little.
Mr. Guo’s salary is not something that can be eaten so easily, and he has been eating it for so many years.
But to be honest, Yuan Si has lived a very comfortable life these years, and he is really relieved.
Since surrendering, he has been living like this. Yuan’s family is finished, he is still alive, and he has become the only person in charge of Yuan’s family in Runan.
He knew that he had little effect on Guo Peng. It was probably Guo Peng's biggest requirement to live well and not behave in evil, so he always implemented his own laws of survival-
Never cause trouble for Guo Peng.
He lives very transparently and easily. He almost does not exist in the entire historical tide, but he does exist.
In the past, Guo Peng sometimes couldn't remember that he still had such a person, but now when the time is ripe, Yuan Si needs to stand up and show his sense of existence.
Yuan Si definitely didn't expect that he would have the day to appear on the stage of history, so when the eunuch announced that Guo Peng would summon him, he looked confused.
He was honestly scrambling to die, but how could he be summoned by the emperor?
Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
He was very worried and came to Fengtian Palace study tremblingly and saw Guo Peng with a gentle smile on his face.
"Yuan Qing, I haven't seen each other for a long time. I still... or..."
Guo Peng seemed to have forgotten when he last met Yuan Si.
Fortunately, Yuan Si felt a little confused and immediately came forward and said, "I have not been willing to eat the ham I gave to me at the birthday party of Your Majesty. I still keep it at home to pay tribute to you at any time, so that I can thank Your Majesty for giving me the kindness of the meat at any time and anywhere!"
Guo Peng was a little embarrassed.
I just thought about everything, but I actually forgot that the last time I met Yuan Si was on my 41st birthday.
This year's 42nd birthday was handled on the grassland because of the Northern Expedition, and the ministers were summoned to celebrate it. It was the 41st birthday of Yande's fourth year.
In other words, I haven't seen each other for more than a year.
Although it is true, Mr. Guo doesn’t remember seeing Yuan Si more than a year ago, and even Yuan Si’s appearance just now.
However, none of these matters. Anyway, calling him here today is to cheat him.
Just a tool guy.
After not seeing him for a long time, Guo Peng still had to do it, let Yuan Si sit down, give him tea and refreshments, and talk with him about family matters to show his closeness.
For example, ask about his family’s situation, the children’s situation, the other family’s situation, etc., and learn that they are all doing well.
"It depends entirely on Your Majesty's great blessings, so that I can survive. My family relies on Your Majesty's power to this day and have no other choice. I can only be loyal to Your Majesty's humble idea."
Yuan Si lowered his posture to the point where he could not be lower, which made Mr. Guo a little embarrassed.
No, as the emperor, Guo would never feel embarrassed. He would only think that Yuan Si is very good at speaking and has a strong desire to survive.
Seeing that he didn't know why he summoned him now and looked worried, Guo Peng knew that he was an existence who kept breaking through the bottom line after breaking through the bottom line. He did not have a bottom line, but only looked at where he could break through.
In order to survive, there is nothing that this person cannot do.
Guo Peng, who had figured out Yuan Si's essence, would of course start to bully him unscrupulously.
"Yuan Qing was able to do things safely in the court, manage the Imperial Academy, assist Mr. Cai, and carefully teach students' knowledge. I felt very pleased. I thought that Yuan Qing was the real pure minister... Alas, when I think of this, I think of the road.
Highway, why do you have to do that kind of thing? Back then, Gu learned that the highway did that kind of thing... Yuan Qing, do you know how heartbroken Gu was at that time? Gu's heart hurts as much as being hit by someone with a stone to the ground!"
As Guo spoke, his eyes turned red: "Gu got to know the highway at the age of eight, and became friends with the highway at the age of fifteen, and then supported each other for more than ten years. The reason why Gu gained a foothold in Qingzhou was because of the highway helping Gu to obtain the position of governor of Qingzhou. This is all the help of the highway to Gu!
But who would have thought... who would have thought that something would happen? Although the Han Dynasty had declined, the road could not be directly called emperor in such a way. That would have been a dead end! Do you know how uncomfortable the Lone was at that time? When the ministers were forced to attack the highway, the Lone felt uncomfortable!"
Tears shed.
Mr. Guo was crying, almost crying. Yuan Si also cooperated and sighed repeatedly, with a sad expression.
The eunuch Su Yuan quickly took out his handkerchief and handed it to Mr. Guo.
Mr. Guo took it, wiped his eyes, and sighed deeply.
"This incident has passed by almost ten years, but for Gu, it seems to have happened yesterday. Whenever Gu thinks of it, he can feel the pain in his heart. For the sake of the world and for the people, Gu is so difficult.
Do what you don’t want to do, kill people you don’t want to kill, fight friends you don’t want to conquer, and say what you don’t want to say. All the helplessness and sorrow are to be borne by one person. Is there anything even more unfair in the world?"
