Chapter 131

Suddenly, he understood in his heart: "It seems that the fruit is ripe, and there are people in the imperial court who cannot sit still and want to reap the rewards!"

"Interesting! Who could it be? He Jin?"

"No, no! He doesn't have the brains for this!"

"I remember that Lu Zhi's successor, Dong Zhuo, is ostensibly He Jin's student, but in reality, he was promoted by Yuan Kui;"

"Therefore, the one who truly wants to frame Lu Zhi and reap the rewards is the Yuan clan!"

"Tsk tsk! It's you guys again! You are everywhere!"

Su Xuan was also speechless in his heart.

He himself was, and Lu Zhi was now too.

The Yuan clan's hands really reached far.

However, he remembered the letter Confucian Xun Shuang Shuang had sent someone to deliver a few days ago.

It said that Confucian Xun Shuang Shuang had contacted the Yuan clan, the Hongnong Yang clan, and others not to target him, and if necessary, to help him obtain rewards.

It also mentioned that the Yuan clan hoped for reconciliation and wanted him to act as a middleman to mediate.

Confucian Xun Shuang Shuang advised Su Xuan that if possible, he should temporarily choose to reconcile with the Yuan clan.

After all, the Yuan clan's power was too great now, and clashing head-on with them would not be good for Su Xuan's future.

Confucian Xun Shuang Shuang was indeed very good and considered things very thoroughly.

Fearing that Su Xuan was young and hot-headed and unwilling to bend, he specifically told Su Xuan that it was only temporary forbearance and reconciliation.

In the future, when Su Xuan felt that his back was strong enough and the time was right, Su Xuan could completely take revenge then.

A gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late!

One must know how to be circuitous and so on.

Su Xuan was a bit dumbfounded after reading it at the time!

But he was also very moved.

This kind of thing, someone who doesn't truly care about you wouldn't tell you.

This shows that Confucian Xun Shuang Shuang truly recognized him as his son-in-law and truly treated him well.

Su Xuan himself was not a stubborn person, so he naturally agreed.

Therefore, at present, the Yuan clan and Su Xuan are ostensibly reconciled.

The Yuan clan specifically guaranteed that when Su Xuan and Xun Cai get married in the future, they will send a generous gift as a compensation for the reconciliation.

"You have worked hard, Lord Zuo!"

"However, the local specialties that should be there must still be there. I will order the manager of the chamber of commerce in Luoyang to send them to the residences of Lord Zuo and Lord Zhang. I hope Lord Zuo will not refuse!"

Su Xuan said with a smile and a bow.

Zuo Feng's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he was very happy in his heart.

He felt that this Su Xuan was really thorough in his considerations when dealing with people and things!

He handled things in a way that made him extremely comfortable.

If so, he naturally would not hesitate to exchange sincerity for sincerity, and immediately bowed and said, "Then I will not decline!"

"However, I will give the General a reminder: there will likely be a major variable on the Jizhou battlefield next, and at that time, there should be an opportunity for the General;"

"The General might as well pay more attention to it. Perhaps, you might be able to perform another miraculous feat and advance even further."

"I have said all I can, remember, remember! Farewell!"

After speaking, Zuo Feng did not wait for Su Xuan to ask him to stay, and turned around and left.

"Oh?"

Su Zhan also smiled knowingly at Zuo Feng's reminder of returning a peach for a plum.

He felt that this Zuo Feng was also an interesting person.

Can they be considered to be mutually beneficial now?

After Zuo Feng had gone far away, Huangfu Song walked over unhurriedly, first bowing to Su Xuan to congratulate him: "Congratulations to Boyuan for advancing further and becoming a General of the Household for Suppressing Rebels;"

"Now, you can be considered on equal footing with me, and your future prospects are limitless!"

When Huangfu Song said this, he also felt very emotional in his heart.

His Majesty truly values Su Xuan!

At only 17 years old, he is already a General of the Household.

His son is much older than Su Xuan, but now he is neither good at literature nor martial arts.

There is no comparison!

"Not at all!"

Su Xuan, upon hearing this, immediately replied humbly: "This youngster is just a junior, and there are still many places to learn and grow. How can I be mentioned in the same breath as a famous general like you, General Huangfu?"

"I just had a bit of good luck, and was valued by His Majesty, so I was promoted repeatedly!"

"Moreover, the General's previous merits are more than mine. The reason why you haven't received rewards immediately is just that they are temporarily accumulated and postponed;"

"After all the rebellions are suppressed, it will be a simple matter for the General to be appointed as a general and enfeoffed as a marquis, and to rank among the Three Excellencies and Nine Ministers."

He indeed has the capital to be proud now.

But it also depends on who he is facing.

He would not truly think that because he is a General of the Household and Huangfu Song is also a General of the Household,

that the two of them are truly on equal footing.

Regardless of seniority or background, there is still a long way to go.

"Boyuan is being humble!"

Huangfu Song said this on the surface, but in his heart, he was very satisfied with Su Xuan's attitude and appreciated him even more.

He immediately gave a hint: "If you can guard against arrogance and impatience, your future achievements will likely be even higher than I imagined!"

"However,"

Speaking of this, he frowned slightly and looked at Su Xuan, saying: "I will say something that may be too deep for our level of acquaintance. Boyuan, listen if you are willing; if not, just pretend I never said it."

"I ask for the General's instruction!"

Su Xuan, upon hearing this, quickly bowed and said.

Huangfu Song's words were clearly meant to be heartfelt advice, so he naturally had to set his attitude right.

"Hmm!"

Sure enough, Huangfu Song was very satisfied and immediately said: "I observed that you, Boyuan, were very polite to Zuo Feng before, and your conversation was quite familiar;"

"As Zuo Feng is an imperial envoy, this is naturally as it should be;"

"But nowadays, in the imperial court, eunuchs are in power, blocking the holy hearing, and are in opposition to us scholar-official officials;"

"Your ancestors, Boyuan, were Su Wu, and you belong to the scholar-official side. To avoid being misunderstood as a lackey of the eunuchs, you need to grasp the degree of your contact with eunuchs in the future;"

"You can avoid offending them, after all, they are villains, and offending them is easy to ruin things;"

"You currently lack a foundation in the imperial court, and offending them is very unfavorable to you;"

"But at the same time, don't get too deeply involved with them, otherwise, I'm afraid you will be labeled as a eunuch party by those with ulterior motives, be excluded by scholar-official officials, and your future will be ruined. Remember! Remember!"

After speaking, Huangfu Song did not say anything more, turned around, and prepared to leave.

"Many thanks for General Huangfu's instruction! Su Xuan will keep this kindness in his heart."

Su Xuan immediately bowed deeply to Huangfu Song in thanks.

Of course, he knew all this.

After all, he is a transmigrator.

He has a good understanding of the situation of the several major forces in the imperial court.

But Huangfu Song didn't know that!

For someone to be able to remind him like this, it is indeed a good intention for a junior, fearing that he would take the wrong path and ruin his future.

Su Xuan must acknowledge this kindness.

"Haha! As long as you don't blame me for being meddlesome!"

Huangfu Song, upon hearing this, waved his hand without looking back, and while leaving, said: "Celebrate well today, we will set off for Dong Commandery tomorrow."

"Yes!"

Su Xuan immediately bowed and agreed.

Although he is already a General of the Household for Suppressing Rebels, Huangfu Song is a General of the Household holding the tally, the commander-in-chief of Yanzhou personally appointed by His Majesty.

Su Xuan naturally has to listen to his dispatch.

After Su Xuan returned to his own commander's tent,
