It is hoped he will continue his efforts to pacify the Yellow Turban rebellions in all regions as soon as possible. Respect this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This subject accepts the decree and offers thanks!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan immediately bowed in gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"General of the Household Su, congratulations once again!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing the decree, Zuo Feng held it out to Su Xuan and offered his congratulations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan took the decree, and at the same time, secretly slipped a money bag to Zuo Feng, smiling modestly: \"Many thanks, Lord Zuo, you have worked hard!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then extended an invitation: \"Why not come to my tent for a chat, Lord Zuo?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Zuo Feng waved his hand this time: \"Delivering the decree to General of the Household Su was actually just on my way. I still carry a heavy responsibility; I must go to Jizhou to find General of the Household Lu and ask him questions on behalf of His Majesty to understand the situation. Therefore, I cannot stay long and must leave now! Next time! Let's do it next time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that's how it is!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Su Xuan was slightly startled, suddenly recalling the events regarding Lu Zhi from his previous life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could this be the incident where Lu Zhi offends Zuo Feng and is subsequently taken to Luoyang in a prisoner cart?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems this matter is not that simple!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At the very least, it is not as simple as merely offending Zuo Feng. I fear there is someone else behind the plot against Lu Zhi.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he thought of the situation on the Jizhou battlefield reported by the Secret Guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He immediately understood: \"It seems the fruit is ripe, and there are people in the imperial court who can no longer sit still and want to pluck the peach!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Interesting! Who could it be? He Jin?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no! He doesn't have the brains for this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I remember that Lu Zhi's successor, Dong Zhuo, is ostensibly a protégé of He Jin, but in reality, he was promoted by Lord Yuan Kui.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Therefore, the ones truly framing Lu Zhi and plucking the peach are the Lord Yuan clan!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk tsk! It's you all again! You are everywhere!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan felt quite speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He himself was, and now Lu Zhi was too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lord Yuan clan's reach was truly long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he remembered the letter Xun Shuang had sent people to deliver a few days ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It stated that Xun Shuang had contacted the Lord Yuan clan, the Hongnong Yang clan, and others to stop targeting him, and if necessary, to help him obtain rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It also mentioned that the Lord Yuan clan hoped for reconciliation and wanted him to act as a middleman to mediate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xun Shuang advised Su Xuan that if possible, he should temporarily choose to reconcile with the Lord Yuan clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the Lord Yuan clan's power was currently too great, and clashing head-on with them would not benefit Su Xuan's future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xun Shuang was indeed very kind and considered things very thoroughly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fearing that Su Xuan was young and hot-headed and unwilling to bend, he specifically told Su Xuan that this was only a temporary forbearance and reconciliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the future, when Su Xuan felt his back was strong enough and the time was right, he could completely take revenge then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gentleman's revenge is never too late!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One must know how to be circuitous and the like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan was somewhat amused after reading it at the time!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was also very moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such things would not be said to you by someone who did not truly care for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This showed that Xun Shuang had indeed recognized him as his son-in-law and was truly good to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan himself was not a stubborn person, so he naturally agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, for now, the Lord Yuan clan and Su Xuan had ostensibly reached a reconciliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lord Yuan clan specifically guaranteed that when Su Xuan married Xun Cai in the future, they would send a generous gift as an apology for the reconciliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You have worked hard, Lord Zuo!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, the local specialties that should be given must still be given. I will order the manager of the chamber of commerce in Luoyang to send them to your mansion and Lord Zhang's mansion. I hope Lord Zuo will not refuse!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan said with a smile and a bow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Feng's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he was very pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt that Su Xuan was truly comprehensive in his consideration of people and things!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Handling matters in a way that made him extremely comfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If so, he naturally would not begrudge exchanging sincerity for sincerity, and immediately bowed: \"Then I will not decline!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, I will give the General a word of warning: there will likely be great variables on the Jizhou battlefield next, and at that time, there should be an opportunity for the General.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The General might want to pay more attention to it; perhaps you can perform another miraculous feat and advance even further.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is all I will say. Remember, remember! Farewell!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Zuo Feng did not wait for Su Xuan to ask him to stay, but turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Zhan also smiled knowingly at Zuo Feng's reciprocal warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt that this Zuo Feng was also an interesting person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could this be considered mutual benefit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Zuo Feng had gone far away, General Huangfu Song walked over unhurriedly, first cupping his hands to Su Xuan in congratulation: \"Congratulations to Su Boyuan for advancing further and becoming a General of the Household who Subdues the Rebels.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, you and I are on equal footing; your future is limitless!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When General Huangfu Song said this, he felt very emotional inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Majesty truly valued Su Xuan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At only 17 years old, he was already a General of the Household.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His own son was much older than Su Xuan, but currently had no achievements in literature or martial arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no comparison!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not at all!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Su Xuan immediately replied modestly: \"This junior is but a younger generation; there is still much to learn and grow. How can I be mentioned in the same breath as a famous general like you, General General Huangfu?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have only had a bit of good luck and received the favor of His Majesty, which is why I have been promoted repeatedly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moreover, your previous merits, General, are far greater than mine. The reason you have not received rewards immediately is merely that they are being accumulated and postponed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once all the rebellions are pacified, it will be a simple matter for you to be appointed a general and enfeoffed as a marquis, and to rank among the Three Excellencies and Nine Ministers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did indeed have some capital to be proud of now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it also depended on who he was facing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would not truly think that just because he was a General of the Household and General Huangfu Song was also a General of the Household,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>that they were truly on equal footing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether in terms of seniority or background, they were still far apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Su Boyuan is too modest!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>General Huangfu Song said this, but he was very satisfied with Su Xuan's attitude and appreciated him even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately offered some advice: \"If you can guard against arrogance and rashness, your future achievements will likely be even higher than I imagine!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this, he frowned slightly and looked at Su Xuan: \"I will say something that might be overstepping, Su Boyuan. Listen if you are willing; if not, just pretend I never said it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I ask for your instruction, General!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Su Xuan quickly bowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>General Huangfu Song's words were clearly meant to be heartfelt advice, so he naturally had to adopt the right attitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, General Huangfu Song was very satisfied and immediately said: \"I observed that you were very polite to Zuo Feng earlier, and your conversation was quite familiar.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As Zuo Feng is an imperial envoy, this is naturally as it should be.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But nowadays, in the imperial court, eunuchs are in power, blinding the ears and eyes of the Son of Heaven, and are in opposition to us scholar-official families.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your ancestor was Su Wu, and you belong to the scholar-official side. To avoid being misunderstood as a lackey of the eunuchs, you must grasp the proper measure in your future dealings with them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can avoid offending them; after all, they are petty people, and offending them easily leads to trouble.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You currently lack a foundation in the imperial court, and offending them is very disadvantageous to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But at the same time, do not get too deeply involved with them, otherwise, I fear you will be labeled as part of the eunuch faction by those with ulterior motives, suffer exclusion by scholar-official families, and your future will be ruined. Remember! Remember!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, General Huangfu Song did not say anything more and turned to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Many thanks for your instruction, General General Huangfu! Su Xuan will keep this kindness in his heart.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan immediately bowed deeply to General Huangfu Song in gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he was well aware of these things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he was a transmigrator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had a good understanding of the situation of the major powers in the imperial court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But General Huangfu Song did not know that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That someone could offer such a reminder was indeed a sign of kindness toward a younger generation, fearing he would take the wrong path and ruin his future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan had to acknowledge this kindness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha! As long as you don't blame me for being meddlesome!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>General Huangfu Song waved his hand without looking back, saying as he left: \"Celebrate well today; tomorrow we set off for Dongjun.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan immediately bowed in response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he was already a General of the Household who Subdues the Rebels, General Huangfu Song was a General of the Household holding the imperial scepter, the commander-in-chief of Yanzhou appointed by His Majesty himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan naturally had to obey his orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Su Xuan returned to his own commander's tent,\u003C\u002Fp>",1781,"2026-06-16T22:46:39.318Z","2026-06-16T22:58:39.531Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","d4a8ff81168a7a70228a1bc565e5bf1becae8753980d771ba9f52d5bdf64223c","heaven-defying-comprehension-building-an-eternal-chapter-74","heaven-defying-comprehension-building-an-eternal-chapter-72",467,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheaven-defying-comprehension-building-an-eternal-cover.jpg"]
