Yuan Shu took advantage of the holiday to visit He Jin and told He Jin that Guo Peng had returned to Luoyang to visit relatives. He Jin could invite Guo Peng to come to the mansion to have a conversation.

"Guo Zifeng is a famous scholar in the Central Plains. He is very famous in Luoyang and Yuzhou area and has the ability to command troops. The general should take this opportunity to get close to Guo Zifeng."

He Jin was right when he heard this.

He was a butcher, and his identity was not good for scholars, so he tried his best to recruit scholars as his staff to improve his reputation.

But even so, many scholars did not buy his account. How could he call him? Those noble scholars ignored him, which made He Jin very distressed.

During the Battle of the Yellow Turbans, He Jin was a general, and Guo Peng was just a small deputy general, and He Jin did not pay attention to him.

When Guo Peng was in a prosperous battle in the north and became the prefect of Shanggu, He Jin felt that he had missed the best opportunity to win over Guo Peng.

Now, with the recommendation of Yuan Shu, he was able to establish a relationship with Guo Peng, a gentry from Yingchuan. He Jin thought it was also very good. He was the time to need the support of wise men from all directions.

So He Jin took the initiative to send someone to invite Guo Peng to the mansion to discuss, showing his attitude and etiquette.

Guo Peng didn't expect that He Jin came to invite him, so he adjusted his clothes and took the car sent by the General's Mansion to the General's Mansion.

Fame is really metaphysical.

It is invisible and intangible, and it is illusory, but when it is used, it reflects its irreplaceable special attributes and can ignore age to a considerable extent.

Xun Yu became a talent for Wang Zuo when he was very young. No one said he was not suitable, right?

Cao Cao was rated as a hero in troubled times at the age of nineteen. No one said he was not suitable, right?

As long as everyone thinks this way, you are, and you are not.

Unless you play it off.

So Guo Peng went to see General He Jin as a famous scholar.

When we arrived at the gate of the General's Mansion, we would welcome him by our subordinates.

"The general has been waiting for Guo Jun for a long time, Guo Jun, please."

Guo Peng thanked him, so he followed the person to visit He Jin. He had some conversations on the way and learned that the person was named Chen Lin and his name was Kong Zhang. He was currently serving as the chief clerk of the General's Mansion.

Guo Peng instantly remembered the person who cured Cao Cao's headache, which was Chen Lin.

On the eve of the Battle of Guandu, Chen Lin scolded Cao Cao so much that he was worthless. He tried his best to reveal Cao Cao's past. Not only that, he also spread rumors and desperately slandered Cao Cao.

But his articles are still written in a colorful way, with gorgeous rhetoric and magnificent literary style. Cao Cao had no choice but to do anything about him. Every literati under his command could write about Chen Lin in his article.

Later, after defeating Yuan Shao, Cao Cao was reluctant to kill Chen Lin, and kept Chen Lin for his own use and wrote articles to praise him.

Chen Lin had no moral integrity, she was just a royal literati. He took this appointment and honestly wrote articles to praise Cao Cao.

It's still so colorful and full of literary talent.

He has no talent, but he is a little smart and knowledgeable, otherwise he would not be the chief clerk of the General's Mansion.

For example, when Yuan Shao had bad intentions, he asked He Jin to recruit foreign troops from all over the world to force Empress He to kill the eunuchs, the two people who desperately persuaded He Jin not to do this, one was Cao Cao and the other was Chen Lin.

But Chen Lin's integrity is...

However, this person is so talented that the superiors are reluctant to kill him.

Put yourself in your shoes and think about it. If Guo Peng was in Cao Cao's position, he would not be willing to kill such an obedient imperial scholar.

Then, Guo Peng met General He Jin.

Many people understand He Jin as a butcher, as a pig slaughter, but it is not, pork will be popular in the private market for a long time.

The He Jin family killed sheep, was a big landlord and a big powerful man.

At this time, meat is not affordable to ordinary people, but is only for rich families and for the aristocratic people.

The He Jin family made a fortune by slaughtering sheep. When He Jin's generation came, it was naturally impossible for him to kill the sheep himself. He lived in a good living environment since he was a child, studied and practiced calligraphy since he was a child, and his cultural level was not bad.

So when Guo Peng saw He Jin, he thought He Jin was pretty good-looking, strong, upright facial features, and had his own majesty.

"Secretary Guo Peng, pay homage to the general."

Guo Peng used the etiquette of meeting Shangguan to pay homage to He Jin.

He Jin stepped forward and supported Guo Peng in a few steps, and said with a smile: "Why is Zifeng so dissatisfied? You were my subordinates, and you worked together to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion. I still remember you very much!"

He Jin smiled and invited Guo Peng to the table, and asked someone to serve some water, wine and fruits.

"That's all the generals who have the right command. We can only let go of the battle under our command. Without the generals to help, I'm afraid that this battle will not be won."

He Jin felt a little comfortable, and felt that Guo Peng said it well.

If he really wants to count all the credit on He Jin, He Jin feels that he doesn’t have that much credit and feels uncomfortable.

Keep a little, focusing on highlighting He Jin's contribution to the coordination of food and grass, he feels more comfortable, and he also likes Guo Peng more.

Before Guo Peng came, He Jin asked about some of Guo Peng’s past events from Yuan Shu and learned that Guo Peng was once excluded by the gentry for marrying the daughter of Cao as his wife, and his life was once very difficult.

Later, because he became a disciple of Lu Zhi, his reputation began to rise and he achieved his current achievements.

So Guo Peng should be able to understand some of the unpleasant experiences of He Jin because of his low background.

In fact, this is true. Guo Peng can indeed understand He Jin's feelings very well, so he treated He Jin in a relatively low manner.

Sure enough, this attitude made He Jin very happy. He felt that Guo Peng did not forget his roots and respected others, which was a good behavioral habit.

So He Jin said a lot of praise to Guo Peng, and Guo Peng also responded a lot of praise. After drinking for three rounds, he said everything he should say, and the time was almost done. Guo Peng pretended to be unable to drink and took the initiative to say goodbye.

He Jin did not try to keep Guo Peng out of his mansion.

Then, Chen Lin came to He Jin and whispered: "How does Ming Gong feel about this person?"

"It's very comfortable to talk to him, and there is no trace of unpleasantness to me. Even the farewell is just right. I don't need to speak. If someone like this helps me, I will undoubtedly save me a lot of trouble."

He Jin smiled and said, "Guo Zifeng is also a person who has suffered and been rolled in his eyes. He understands me and understands my feelings, so that I will be so comfortable, like a spring breeze."

"Since that is the case, why didn't Ming Gong keep this person in the capital or surrounding areas and serve as the wings of Ming Gong? This person has never been summoned by the Duke's Palace and prefectures and counties, and is not someone else's disciple."

Chen Lin looked at He Jin.

"No hurry, there is always a chance. Only by doing the right thing at the right time can you achieve the best results. Now is not the right time. Northern Xinjiang needs Guo Peng more than I do."

He Jin smiled, shook his head, and then turned around and left.

Chen Lin didn't understand He Jin's idea, so she simply didn't want to.
