Chapter 141 Chen Gong returns, Huang Zhong surrenders(1/3)
At the end of March, the weather in recent days has been somewhat inconvenient.
Counting the days, in a few days it will be the Qingming Festival.
Therefore, Cao Cao planned to set off again after the Qingming Festival.
An army of half a million is not a small number. Just the allocation of personnel and the dispatch of troops are not something that can be completed in a few days.
It seems that Qingming Festival is approaching.
The weather in Xuchang is somewhat gloomy. The sky is covered in gray, as if it can rain at any time.
Huang Zhong and his son have been living in the theater for several days.
And Xi Yu also knew that Huang Zhong went to the pawn shop to pawn something that day because of the money matter.
This matter was considered ignored by him.
For this reason, Xi Yu specially asked Xi Lao to send some money to Huang Zhong.
Huang Zhong was reluctant to take it at first, but the play boss told him that you are now living at your husband's house.
Sir, helping Mr. Huang treat his illness is a favor, since we already have a favor.
A little more, a little less, what’s the difference?
After hearing what Xi Lao said, Huang Zhong finally accepted the money given by Xi Yu.
On that day, Huang Zhong inquired about Liu Bei's guards, and in the next few days he paid back the money that the guards had received.
For this reason, the guards were somewhat reluctant.
……
Because of the penicillin, Huang Xu's situation was barely stable.
The rest of the situation cannot be solved by Xi Yu alone, so Huang Xu can only continue to stay at the Xijia.
After all, during these continuous rainy days, if the theater had not provided floor heating, Huang Xu's symptoms would have worsened if it had been elsewhere.
Now the only thing left is to wait until Zhang Zhongjing is found, maybe it will be possible to cure Huang Xu's illness.
Huang Zhong understands this.
Huang Zhong had heard of Zhang Zhongjing's name to some extent, and he had always wanted to find the right person.
However, communication in this era was too inconvenient, and there were no newspapers all over the world to find people.
Furthermore, that guy Zhang Zhongjing is running around all over the country, who knows where he is.
Huang Zhong cannot lead Huang Xu all over the world to chase Zhang Zhongjing.
Under such circumstances, even if he knew Zhang Zhongjing's reputation, there was not much he could do.
Now, his son's condition is under control, and his husband is helping to search for Zhang Zhongjing in newspapers. Huang Zhong couldn't be more satisfied.
He thought that Huang Xu's illness might not be solved in a short time.
And he is still Liu Biao's lieutenant general.
If we continue to stay in Xuchang to accompany Huang Xuzhi's illness, we will no longer be able to hold the position of lieutenant general.
After discussing with Huang Xu, Huang Zhong wrote to his nephew Liu Pan who was stationed in Changsha that day, telling him that he would stay in Xuchang to help Huang Xu with his treatment.
Let the other party take his place and resign to Liu Jingzhou.
From then on, Huang Zhong planned to stay in Xuchang and take care of Huang Xu wholeheartedly.
……
Qingming Festival is approaching.
It seemed that someone was coming to the theater today. Huang Zhong found that Mr. Xi was waiting in the courtyard early in the morning, dressed and dressed.
He just said hello and did not disturb Xiyu.
Around noon, outside the main gate of the opera house, a middle-aged man wearing a blue Confucian shirt with a dusty face entered the courtyard under the leadership of the housekeeper Xi Lao.
As soon as he saw the person coming, Xi Yu stood up to greet him.
"Brother Gongtai, I haven't seen you for a long time. I never thought that when I saw you today, I realized that Brother Gongtai has lost a lot of weight!"
The person who came was none other than Chen Gong, who had previously agreed to Xi Yu’s help in handling disaster relief matters in Yanzhou and Xuzhou.
It’s just that we haven’t seen each other in just over two years, and the Chen Gong in front of me has already lost a lot of weight.
In fact, there was quite a chilling air as he marched.
Chen Gong was not polite to Xi Yu at all. He sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard and raised his eyes to look at Xi Yu.
"Humph, I haven't seen you for more than two years, but your reputation in Fengyi has grown a lot."
Chen Gong curled his lips.
He promised Xi Yu to help with the disaster relief, and now he is treating Xi Yu right.
In the past two years, Chen Gong traveled from Yanzhou to Xuzhou. Along the way, he not only helped with disaster relief matters, but also led people to fight against some banditry.
This chilling aura was developed from this.
"I thought Brother Gongtai wouldn't come to Xuchang!"
Xi Yu chuckled lightly and took the initiative to help Chen Gong get a cup of tea.
"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have thought I would be here!"
Chen Gong has already sworn that he would never work with Cao Cao.
But now, the pattern of the world is no longer the same as before.
Since Cao Cao welcomed the emperor and established his capital in Xuchang.
There are some situations that even Chen Gong did not expect.
However, it is one thing for him to help Xi Yu, but another thing for him to help Cao Cao.
The two are different after all.
"When Gongtai comes back this time, I plan to take some rest. Now Xuchang is full of waste and is waiting to be renovated. Gongtai is really needed!"
"A lot of waste is waiting to be done?"
"Xi Fengyi, you are a dignified imperial censor, and you are also a great farmer in the Han Dynasty. You should be in charge of the spring plowing in various places!"
"I helped you because it was good for the world, but I didn't recognize you as my master!"
Chen Gong's face turned a little dark.
Nowadays, he is basically responsible for the spring plowing. If it weren’t for Xi Yu’s special letter, he would be running around to preside over spring plowing!
"Gongtai knows that I previously planned to build a school in Xuchang, and now this school has been completed!"
Xiyu spoke with a slight smile on his lips.
Chen Gong raised his eyebrows.
"I've also heard about the school!"
Chen Gong paused and looked up at Xi Yu in front of him.
What Xiyu is doing now seems to be deliberately targeting the major families in today's Han Dynasty.
However, these have nothing to do with Chen Gong.
"Gongtai, can I have a professional title in school?"
Xi Yu asked casually.
Chen Gong frowned: "What do you mean?"
"Of course I don't want Brother Gongtai to waste what he has learned. If we can cultivate more talents, it will naturally be of use to the world!"
To put it simply, if Xuchang School wants to recruit students, it will naturally need more teachers.
Nowadays, most of those aristocratic families will not send anyone to help because of the drama.
There are only a few people Xi Yu can think of, and Chen Gong is one of them.
In the past two years, the other party has been busy traveling around without complaint. To be honest, Xi Yu felt a little bit sorry.
I heard that Chen Gong has been home less often in the past two years, and has even been absent from his home.
This year's spring plowing has also entered the right path, and Chen Gong has also cultivated a group of worthy subordinates in the past two years.
These people are naturally affiliated with Xiyu, so just leave the spring plowing to those people.
"Is this what Cao Mengde meant?" Chen Gong's eyelids drooped.
Xiyu shook his head.
"This is what I mean. Brother Gongtai should understand what is going on between me and the family. This school is short of teachers now. Brother Gongtai, would you like to continue to help me?"
Chen Gong didn't speak, he raised the teacup on the table and poured a sip into his mouth.
"Now, I, Chen Gong, don't have many ideas. Now that you have made a decision, Chen will accompany you!"
