Chapter 79 Curve Operation
Guan Yu fell into silence. The advice given by Ye Zhao was undoubtedly to let him escape and break out of the dispute. Whether for him, for Liu Bei or Gongsun Zan, Guan Yu was the best choice.
But... Guan Yu always feels that escaping like this is not what a gentleman does.
"It will be easy to break even if it is too tough." Ye Zhao saw Guan Yu's entanglement and shook his head with a smile: "Sometimes, avoidance is not something that cowards do. If Yun Chang goes back, whether it is Brother Bo Gui to attack Liu Youzhou or Liu Youzhou to attack Bo Gui, Liu Bei will definitely participate in the war. How do you deal with it at that time?"
Then, Ye Zhao looked at Guan Ping again and said, "Besides, I think I should study hard. Now Chengdu Academy has become a master. My teacher, great scholar Ren An and other famous scholars are coached. There are also famous generals in the military, including me, who will go to the academy to explain military strategies and strategies to their disciples. If Brother Yun is willing, he can take advantage of this time to let the child study in the academy, which is better than wasting his time. To be honest, with the child now, it is already a little late. If you run around with you and cannot calm down and study, your life will probably be limited."
When Guan Yu heard this, he looked at Guan Ping, and was a little shaken.
Ye Zhao stood up and smiled and said, "Have you ever thought about why we are different from noble families? Children of aristocratic families can receive teachings from famous scholars since childhood. Although they are not said to be able to become talented, if the talent is similar, the children of famous families can be taught from famous teachers since childhood, but the children of poor families can only rely on opportunities. Now, the establishment of Chengdu Academy is to give poor children a journey to study. We are busy all our lives, so that we can also win the wife and children, so that our descendants do not have to ask for help everywhere in order to study like us?"
"Captain Yun thinks that your journey is exhausted, so I won't disturb you today. Someone will arrange for you to wait for accommodation and have a good rest. The next day I will hold a banquet at the General's Mansion to invite envoys from all sides. Brother Yun must come here." After Ye Zhao asked someone to arrange accommodation for Guan Yu and others, he took Dian Wei and left directly with him.
Guan Yu is a human being... a person who believes in the truth. When he met in Nanyang, Ye Zhao actually had the intention to recruit Guan Yu.
At that time, once a person like Guan Yu identified someone, it would be difficult to change. Even if Liu Bei was poor and nothing was wrong at that time, Guan Yu still firmly followed him.
Therefore, Ye Zhao did not speak at that time. Taking on a powerful general was like chasing a woman. Exposing his demands too early would only reduce his value in the other party's heart.
It is actually not difficult to raise your own value. Before you are absolutely sure, don’t speak up, and then you can find ways to deepen the relationship between the two parties and enhance your own value. In addition, you can also use some external tricks.
For example, Ye Zhao took advantage of Lu Zhi's pleading for mercy and sent Liu Bei and Guan Yu to Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan's tent respectively.
Liu Yu was a relative of the Han Dynasty and had a great prestige among the royal family. Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei were of the same family and had a good relationship. At that time, Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu were not as nervous as they are now. They were also in Youzhou. With Liu Bei's eyes at that time, it was impossible to see that Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu would become more powerful and powerful. The conflict between Li Yong and Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu divided the friendship between Liu Bei and Guan Yu.
After all, Guan Yu just recognized his elder brother, but he did not. Strictly speaking, Guan Yu's current lord is Gongsun Zan, but because of Liu Bei's relationship, he is now alienated by Gongsun Zan. This period is the most confused period for Guan Yu and the time when Ye Zhao decides to take action.
However, we still can't be too impatient. Guan Yu's inner entanglement is still wandering between Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan. At most, he is just grateful to Ye Zhao. It is too early to expose his intentions at this time, so he can easily scare Guan Yu away, so Ye Zhao decided to save the country on a curve.
It is difficult to recruit Guan Yu, but Guan Ping is different. A 14 or 15-year-old boy is at the age of passion and impulsiveness. It will undoubtedly reduce the difficulty of keeping Guan Yu and keeping Guan Ping.
Unlike in the Romance, Guan Ping was Guan Yu's own son. Guan Yu was angry and killed people and wandered in a foreign land, but the wife in the family gave birth to a son for him. Judging from his appearance, he was undoubtedly Guan Yu's son.
In his early years, Guan Yu was wandering around like a rootless floating duckweed. Even after following Liu Bei, he still ran around and naturally could not bring a scoop. Later, Guan Yu worked under Gongsun Zan and was highly valued. When he returned to his hometown to visit relatives, he found that he had a son, and his mother was dead. Guan Yu naturally could not let his son continue to wander outside, so he took Guan Ping to him and taught martial arts.
With a son, there will naturally be a ties, especially when Guan Yu has not decided who to go to. Guan Ping's opinion can influence Guan Yu's decision to a certain extent. Therefore, Ye Zhao suggested that Guan Ping enter Chengdu Bookstore/Academy to study.
The mentality of hoping that your son will become a dragon has been the same since ancient times, so Guan Yu naturally cannot avoid the vulgarity. Moreover, Ye Zhao's words hit Guan Yu's weakness, and it is actually not difficult to understand, just like the reason why parents say that children cannot lose at the starting line now.
Unlike history or Romance, because Ye Zhao intervened, the friendship between Guan Yu and Liu Bei was not as strong as that in history or at the same time in Romance. In addition, it was uncomfortable to be stuck between two families in Youzhou. Ye Zhao believed that if Guan Ping could achieve something in Chengdu/Du Academy, Guan Ping could first make him feel a sense of belonging to him. In addition, Zhou Cang was also grateful to Ye Zhao, and Ye Zhao's attitude towards Guan Yu... Boiling a frog in warm water will last longer. After Guan Yu got used to life here and integrated into this circle, it would be difficult to leave.
Ye Zhao was walking, and suddenly couldn't help laughing. If this was the case, he would have successfully alienated the three brothers in Taoyuan.
"Why is the lord laughing?" Dian Wei glanced at Ye Zhao with some surprise.
"With your wisdom, it's hard for me to explain it clearly to you." Ye Zhao put away his smile, looked at Dian Wei, and looked mysterious. After saying that, he ignored Dian Wei and walked straight forward.
What's the meaning?
Dian Wei looked at Ye Zhao's back in shock and quickly followed, but he kept savoring the meaning of Ye Zhao's words all the way. He went to the general's mansion and returned to the inner courtyard. Dian Wei realized: "Does the lord say I'm stupid?"
Ye Zhao looked at Dian Wei unexpectedly and said speechlessly: "You have been thinking about this all the way?"
Dian Wei nodded naturally.
"How to say... it's not that you are stupid, sometimes, your speed of thinking about problems is much slower than normal people, and you can't grasp the key points." Ye Zhao finished speaking tactfully, and then went straight back to the house.
Dian Wei thought for a long time and said, "Don't this still say I'm stupid?"
"Ao~" Dabai ran to Dian Wei's feet for some time and shouted, as if responding to Dian Wei's words.
"Get out!" Dian Wei raised his foot and kicked Dabai's head, and said angrily with a muffled groan.
"Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Dian Wei picked up Dabai's ears and said angrily, "This is what I taught you, but you came to kill me. Do you believe it or not and stew you tonight!"
Dabai shivered, suddenly broke free from Dian Wei's palm, and ran away as the screams of a group of servants.
Dian Wei glanced speechlessly at the direction where Ye Zhao left, scratched his head, and turned to arrange a guard. It was because Ye Zhao and Dian Wei had been used to Ye Zhao's attitude of being unrighteous in private for so many years, and it was also a manifestation of closeness. After Dian Wei curled his lips, he decided that when his son grew up, he would definitely send him to the academy to study hard, otherwise he would not be able to react if he was scolded.
Ye Zhao was in a bad mood recently. Since he was taken to Chengdu, he has been depressed all day long. Although Cai Yan was a good sister to her in the past, Liu Wei never thought of serving Cai Yan with her. After all, before that, the Han Dynasty had only said that the official wife and concubines were the ones, but there was no such thing as a fair wife.
Her status at home was divided in vain, and no one would feel good. Although Liu Wei treats Xin'er well on weekdays, it is a mentality similar to giving. Among Ye Zhao's women, although there are only two, she is definitely respected. Now that there is one more person with a status similar to her, Liu Wei will naturally not be happy.
When Ye Zhao came back, Liu Wei was holding Ye Zheng and complaining. When he saw Ye Zhao coming in, he snorted in a depressed voice and turned his head away.
"Father...Dad..." Ye Zheng, who was already two years old, was able to speak. When he saw Ye Zhao, he spread his chubby arms.
"You are so heartless, my mother is with you every day, but she only thinks of your father!" Liu Wei gently patted Ye Zheng's little butt and said in a slight anger.
"Madam is still angry?" Ye Zhao took Ye Zheng into his arms and looked at Liu Wei with a smile.
"How dare I?" Liu Wei snorted.
"This is just like the woman who dared to threaten me with a sword!" Ye Zhao looked at Liu Wei and couldn't help but smile, but remembered the scene when the two met for the first time. Liu Wei treated him as a thief, and chopped him with a sword, but Ye Zhao directly curled up. The feelings were probably planted at that time.
"This child is most sensitive to the surroundings. His mother is frowning and upset every day. In fact, the child will feel it, so Zheng'er is a little afraid of you." Ye Zhao handed Ye Zheng back to Liu Wei's arms and smiled: "I know that the wife is unhappy, but for Zheng'er, the wife should not be resentful all day long."
"I don't." Liu Wei looked at Ye Zheng, and her expression became softer unconsciously.
"Yan'er and his wife are good friends. I know that the wife will not be happy when they marry into the Ye family. However, for the husband, the wife will always be the eldest wife in this family. Even if the fairy in the sky comes, she can only be a child for her." Ye Zhao said with a smile.
"I don't know how many women I want to deceive in my husband's mouth." He glared at Ye Zhao with annoyance, and Liu Wei shook his head and said, "I know that my husband is a big deal. Since my husband wants to marry the Cai sister, Weier is not easy to stop him, but he is really bored in his heart."
