In early August, golden autumn is approaching in the blink of an eye.

Sun Ce, who returned to Wu County from Xuchang, immediately took Zhou Yu and other cadres and generals with the imperial seal and headed straight for Shouchun.

"Is this the imperial seal?"

On the way to Shouchun, Sun Ce took Zhou Yu and others to camp halfway to rest.

Sun Ce couldn't help but took out the imperial seal from his arms.

The expressions of the cadres and generals nearby, including Zhou Yu, changed a bit.

They are all confidants of the Sun family. At this moment, Sun Ce did not hesitate at all. After taking out the silk brocade wrapped with the national jade seal from his arms.

Opening the brocade, a seal as big as the palm of your hand appeared directly in front of everyone.

Its shape is four inches in diameter, with five dragons on it. The whole body is made of blue and white jade, but one leg is made of gold.

This corner was caused by the Empress Dowager of the Han Dynasty falling to the ground when Wang Mang usurped the throne.

There are eight seal characters of birds and insects engraved on the front of the jade seal, the content of which is, if you receive orders from heaven, you will live a long and prosperous life.

Looking at the jade seal in front of me, a general nearby couldn't help but murmur.

Objects like the Imperial Seal are like divine objects in the eyes of people in this era.

Nowadays, we can see the jade seal passed down from the country, for these generals who have always been at the bottom of the times.

That is a great blessing.

Sun Ce held the jade seal passed down from the country, his eyes sparkling.

He was somewhat reluctant to part with such a divine object, but for the present, he had no other choice.

Handing it over to Yuan Shu will definitely give him the power under his father's original command, and he can even break away from him and strive for freedom.

This time I took out the jade seal, but I was a little reluctant to part with it.

Shouchun is not far away. When Shouchun arrives, this thing will no longer be so easy to hold in the palm of your hand.

"Young General, why should we hand over such a magical object to that old thief Yuan Shu!"

Some generals were a little angry at this time.

There were quite a few echoes from the crowd, and they probably felt that it was too unworthy to hand over the imperial seal to Yuan Shu.

But for Sun Ce, as Xi Yu and Zhou Yu said, if this thing is left in his hands, it is just a dead thing after all!

Sun Ce casually handed the jade seal to Zhou Yu: "Gong Jin, let everyone take a look. This is how the jade seal is passed down to the country!"

His tone was quite relaxed. Maybe saying this would make him feel better!

Zhou Yu took the jade seal, looked at it carefully, and then handed it to Cheng Pu beside him, and then a group of generals gathered around to examine the jade seal.

The more they looked at it, the more unwilling these generals were to let Sun Ce hand it over to Yuan Shu.

"Lord, this thing cannot be handed over to Yuan Shu!"

Someone is here to give advice.

Hearing this, Sun Ce smiled bitterly.

"Nowadays, most of my father's generals are under the command of Duke Yuan. If I don't give you this imperial seal, how can I get back my father's brothers?"

"To me, Yuxi is just a dead thing after all. How can he compare to the brothers who have been following my father in the war!"

"Yu Xi is dead, but you, as well as all the brothers of my late father, are all living people!"

Sun Ce spoke with sincerity.

At this moment, all the generals were shocked, and then they all had tears in their eyes.

As the saying goes, a scholar will die for his confidant. Sun Ce's words are too true for their importance, not to mention something like the national jade seal.

"How dare you not die in service to your lord!"

As Cheng Pu took the lead in speaking, all the generals expressed their moved expressions.

Zhou Yu couldn't help but nodded in his heart. Bo Fu took out the jade seal and made some remarks, which gathered the hearts of these Jiangdong generals.

For today's world situation, the most important thing is people.

A jade seal like this is just a dead thing after all.

Only people like Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao would value the jade seal so much!

When the jade seal returned to Sun Ce's hand, the latter did not hesitate to wrap it up again and put it in his arms.

Sun Ce led everyone to break camp and go to Shouchun again.

On that day, Sun Ce and a group of people arrived at Shouchun City.

Yuan Shu was extremely happy when Sun Ce came, and he enthusiastically brought Sun Ce into his presence, thinking that the other party was planning to completely surrender to him.

In fact, at this moment, Yuan Shu had already made plans to regard Sun Ce as his adopted son.

"Bo Fu comes to Shouchun this time, but he wants to stay permanently?"

"In this Shouchun City, I will definitely choose a good residence for Bo Fu!"

When Yuan Shu opened his mouth, his words showed how much he valued Sun Ce.

Hearing what the other party said, Sun Ce did not hesitate.

He glanced to the left and right: "General, I have something that I would like to offer to the general. Please step aside, general!"

Sun Ce spoke frankly, and when Yuan Shu heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

What does it mean?

Need to scroll back to left and right?

What?

At this moment, Yuan Shu thought a lot in his mind, but he didn't think much about it.

As for whether Sun Ce would take this opportunity to hurt him, Yuan Shu thought that the other party would not be that stupid.

On the one hand, Sun Ce had no reason to assassinate him; on the other hand, Sun Ce wanted to assassinate him.

He can't leave Shouchun City either.

Yuan Shu waved his hands to the left and right side without any hesitation.

After they left, he looked at Sun Ce.

"What does Bo Fu need to offer to me?"

Yuan Shu was a little curious, but Sun Ce did not pause. He directly took out the brocade wrapped in the national jade seal from his arms in front of Yuan Shu.

Before this thing was opened, Yuan Shu's eyes were fixed involuntarily.

What else could it be that could be wrapped in gold, jade, and silk brocade, not to mention that the shape of the object was already extremely obvious.

This is it!

He has always been thinking about the national jade seal.

Did the Sun family really get it?

I never thought that Sun Ce would actually take out this thing at this time. It seems that this kid is planning to follow him wholeheartedly.

At this moment, Yuan Shu was in a great mood.

Without waiting for Sun Ce to step forward, he took the initiative to approach him.

Sun Ce did not hesitate, and after opening the brocade, the shining imperial seal appeared in front of the two of them.

"General, this is the jade seal passed down to the country. It was obtained by my father before his death. Ce originally wanted it to be buried with my father, but after all, this thing is a national treasure! It supports the weight of the country and cannot be buried underground."<

/p>

"Ce feels that now that the destiny of the Han Dynasty has been moved, only those who belong to the destiny can bear this thing!"

"My father has no life to bear it and has already died!"

"General, I decided to present this thing to the general today because I feel that only the general can keep it..."

Sun Ce's words were very direct, you Yuan Shu are more capable than me, so holding the jade seal should be fine.

Take it!

Yuan Shu did not hesitate and quickly took the Imperial Seal from Sun Ce.

After placing it on the palm of his hand, Yuan Shu stared at it carefully and couldn't help but nodded.

It was indeed a national jade seal. He had been lucky enough to see it before!

Now that we see each other again, I never expected that it would be in such a way.

Under such circumstances, Yuan Shu couldn't help but feel a little agitated.

"Okay, Bo Fu really gave me a valuable treasure!"

Yuan Shu's eyebrows trembled, then he held the jade seal in one hand, and couldn't help but patted Sun Ce's shoulder affectionately with the other hand.

"My dear nephew, if you have any requests, I, as your uncle, will grant them all!"

After getting the jade seal, Yuan Shu was in a good mood, and he casually made promises to Sun Ce.

This was a good time, so Sun Ce naturally didn't hesitate at all.

"Since my uncle heard about it, Ce spoke up!" Sun Ce smiled and nodded.

Yuan Shu narrowed his eyes. Since the other party could dedicate the jade seal to him, he didn't care what he asked for.

"Okay, Bo Fu, just ask!"

Sun Ce didn't look at Yuxi anymore. After hearing Yuan Shu speak like this, he took a step back and continued to salute.

"I also ask Bo Fu Yunce to station himself in Wujun. In addition, Ce's troops are insufficient, so I also ask my uncle to help me. If possible, I would like to take those brothers of my late father with me."

At this time, Sun Ce directly stated his purpose.

Now that he already occupies the land of Wu Commandery, saying this is just to give Yuan Shu face.

Its purpose is still those elders who follow Sun Jian.

After hearing this, Yuan Shu did not hesitate and nodded with a smile.

"It's just a small matter, so I agreed!"

……

This is the day.

Yuan Shu did not hesitate to order his subordinates and allocate all the subordinates who originally followed Sun Jian to Sun Ce.

After he obtained the jade seal, he began not to care about Shouchun's political affairs in the past few days.

After Sun Ce got the order, he gathered all the people under Sun Jian's command. After a few days of delay in Shouchun, he hurriedly informed Yuan Shu and quickly returned to Wu Commandery with a group of people.

……

At the same time.

Just when Yuan Shu obtained the jade seal, Xi Yu, who was far away in Xuchang, had been busy.

It is now the beginning of autumn.

It has been less than a month since Xuchang schools started.

Under Xi Yu's orders, the Xu brothers have been advertising the school in Dahan newspapers.

In Xuchang City today, among the many scholars, the thing that talks the most to each other is not the current situation of the world, but the upcoming Xuchang School.

At the same time.

At this moment, Xuchang will be in prison.

The young man covered in dust couldn't help but move closer to his second brother.

"Second brother, the Xuchang school will start soon. Can we finally leave this place?"

Zhuge Dan looked a little happy.

After following his second brother to Xuchang, he originally thought that his second brother would go directly to Mr. Xi.

Who would have thought that after visiting my husband, my second brother would not be in a hurry at all.

After spending all the money he had, his second brother took him to this general prison.

This stay lasted for several months.

Now the school in Xuchang is finally about to start, and these horrible days are finally coming to an end.

Zhuge Dan raised his head and glanced at Zhuge Liang in front of him.

When these brothers first came to Xuchang, they were very popular students!

Nowadays, my second brother and myself look just like these general eunuchs, not at all like scholars.

The second brother stays in the wood pile all day long, and the most he has on his body is sawdust, and he is not much different.

"Didn't the newspapers and periodicals say that school will start in early September? There is still one month left, so why worry?"

Zhuge Liang turned around and smiled at Zhuge Dan, but the movements of his hands stopped.

At this time, Zhuge Dan followed suit and helped.

"Second brother, is this thing you made a tool that is needed for physical experiments in newspapers and periodicals? I think it is not much different from the description in that newspaper and periodicals!"

Zhuge Dan looked at the woodworking objects in front of him. They looked similar to the tracks recorded in the Han Dynasty newspapers some time ago.

I never thought that my second brother would actually do something like this.

"Fortunately, there was nothing I could do in the prison today to help, so I asked a master craftsman to find a piece of wood, and by the way, I tried what the newspaper said!"

Zhuge Liang was a little curious whether it was as what the newspapers said.

After learning Zhuge Liang's idea, Zhuge Dan nodded and started to help.

He is in a good mood right now. Although there is still less than a month left, he feels even better when he thinks that this day will end soon.

At the same time.

Hanoi Sima Family.

At this moment, Sima Yi was lying on a couch in the courtyard of his home, when Sima Fang suddenly walked over from the side.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Sima Yi, then sighed involuntarily.

"Zhongda, you broke your leg to avoid Cao Cao's conquest. Do you regret it now?"

Sima Fang asked Sima Yi, and as he spoke, his old face frowned.

"You know, although your third brother is not as talented as you, he is still serving as a county magistrate!"

"If you agreed to Cao Cao's conquest that day, now that you want to come..."

"Father!"

Sima Yi interrupted Sima Fang, who was chattering away, and smiled: "My child is good like this!"

From his perspective, with the current structure of the world, it is still unclear who will dominate the Central Plains in the future.

Although Cao Cao's ability is not small, he does not want to devote himself to Cao Ying.

Now in Cao Ying, there are people like Xi Yu, Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai, Cheng Yu, Xun You and others.

Wu Youxiyu, Cao Ren, Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Cao Hong, Yu Jin, Xu Huang, etc.

As for Sima Yi, his strategy was still a little behind compared to Xi Yu, Xun Yu and others.

In terms of military strategy, although his self-control is not bad, compared with the generals of the Cao family, he can't get anything done.

He doesn't want to join Cao Ying as a small official. To do so, he has to achieve a status like Xun Lingjun.

What's more, it's not Cao Cao who controls Hanoi now.

There is no need for him to chase the other person to lick him and break his leg, it is already a favor to Lao Cao!

"I heard that the Xuchang school was about to open. It was founded by Xiyu, who is now famous all over the world. Do you want me to give it a try?"

Knowing Sima Yi's temperament, Sima Fang felt helpless.

However, among his sons, Sima Yi is the most talented.

At this time, he mentioned the incident at Xuchang School to remind his son that if he missed some things, he might not be able to make it in time.

The school founded by Xi Yu set a precedent in the world. The mathematical content published in the Han Dynasty newspapers and periodicals today is puzzling.

"School?"

Sima Yi raised his head and glanced at Sima Fang.

At first, he originally thought that Xi Yu just wanted to spread books like Confucian classics to ordinary people!

However, it was not until you published the content of mathematics and physics in your newspapers that Sima Yi was somewhat shocked!

Although he is not good at mathematics and science, he still knows some contents.

After all, he has read the Nine Chapters on Arithmetic.

He also has solutions to some complex problems.

However, the mathematical problems published in the newspapers were difficult for him to understand. Although he was idle during this period, he did not think about it less.

"School will start in early September, don't forget it, my son!"

Seeing Sima Yi's reaction, Sima Fang reminded him with a smile, then turned and left.

For the same thing, all the aristocratic families in various places have taken action.

Although the major aristocratic families were opposed to the school founded by Xi Yu, they knew that the school would start in early September.

A group of family members immediately choose their outstanding children and want to go to that school to have a look.

For these aristocratic families, there is no doubt about Xi Yu's ability. Naturally, these aristocratic families will not let go of the contents of the schools he founded.

At the same time, those children from poor families also began to rush towards Xuchang.

This is the day.

The sky is clear and sunny.

When Xi Yu was compiling the textbooks needed by the school at home, he never expected that Cao Cao would come straight to the theater with Xun Yu, Xun You, his uncle and nephew.

As the autumn harvest was approaching, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a little hot again.

His temperament is not the kind that can be tolerated.

What's more, for Cao Cao, he is now over forty.

He doesn't know how much time he has left.

Now is the time to expand his power in one go. Now, except for Yuan Shao, all the princes in the world are not looked down upon by him.

He still wants to pacify the world earlier!

Although the failure of the westward advance was his fault, it was not a mistake in his military strategy, it was nothing more than a man's instinct!

After recovering Nanyang and other places in the previous campaign, Lao Cao's ambitions resumed again.

After this autumn harvest, he had already discussed it with his uncle and nephew Xunyu.

It's a good time to send troops.

He wanted to go north to capture the Hanoi area and bring the entire Sili area back into the domain in one fell swoop. Now that Yuan Shao wants to annex the state, Hanoi and the Sili area will sooner or later become a territory that he and Yuan Shao compete for.

If he didn't take action in advance this time, it would be too late to take action after Yuan Shao captured Bingzhou!

Cao Cao had something in mind, and after asking Xun Yu and others for their opinions, he then thought of Xi Yu.

Before Xi Jin didn’t listen to Xi Yu, but now, it’s time to listen to the other party’s opinion.

With this in mind, he took Xun Yu and Xun You straight to the theater.

When Cao Cao came, Xi Yu was not surprised. He stopped the book he was compiling and brought Cao Cao to the main hall. After he sat down, his eyes immediately fell on him.

"Brother Mengde, why are you here this time?"

Xi Yu asked casually. When he heard this, Cao Cao couldn't help but frown slightly, and then he smiled softly.

"Fengyi, look at what you said, can't I just come and find you as a brother?"

Do you believe what you say?

Xi Yu raised his eyes and looked at the other party, you even brought Xun Yu and Xun You, how can this be okay?
