Chapter 12

"Now it seems, I was indeed right."

Although Hua Xiong's status in the Xiliang Army was previously below the "Xiliang Army F4,"

this did not mean Boss Dong was not good to him.

On the contrary, Dong Zhuo valued Hua Xiong very much and had been promoting him for a long time.

"Lord, this subordinate is just a martial man who charges into battle."

"Being able to crush that group of Guandong rebels is mainly due to Mr. Gu's strategy."

Hua Xiong did not claim credit or be arrogant, but truthfully gave the credit to Gu Yi, who was standing beside him.

"Gu Yi, is it?"

"You lad seem quite compatible with me."

"How old are you?"

Dong Zhuo had actually noticed Gu Yi standing behind Hua Xiong long ago.

But adhering to the principle of letting Hua Xiong introduce Gu Yi,

Dong Zhuo did not take the initiative to speak just now.

At this moment, focusing his gaze on Gu Yi,

Dong Zhuo became more and more delighted the more he looked.

That appearance was exactly like a father-in-law looking at a son-in-law who satisfied him.

Of course, for old Dong, it should be said that he was looking at a grandson-in-law who satisfied him.

After all,

who could not be confused by Gu Yi's super high appearance?

If we talk about someone whose appearance can surpass Gu Yi, it can only be the handsome reader who is reading this book!

PS: So, handsome reader, can you support me with some data? Flowers, evaluation tickets, monthly tickets are all fine; I don't dare to ask for tips.

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, this humble one just turned eighteen this year."

Although Gu Yi was over twenty years old before he transmigrated,

the age of this body after transmigration is indeed only eighteen.

"Hahahaha, I see you are a man of talent; have your parents or elders given you a courtesy name?"

Learning that Gu Yi was only eighteen, Dong Zhuo calculated in his heart that he was only one year older than Dong Bai; the two were simply too suitable!

Therefore, Dong Zhuo intended to ask about Gu Yi's family background.

This appearance was very much like a father-in-law seeing his son-in-law for the first time in his previous life.

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, this humble one is alone and drifting."

"I have not yet received a courtesy name."

Speaking of this, Gu Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He didn't feel fatherly or motherly love in his previous life, and in this life, his parents were also dead.

Hearing this, old Dong seemed to have thought of something.

He couldn't help but sigh.

Then, he placed his right hand on Gu Yi's shoulder and said:

"From now on, wherever my Xiliang Army is, that is your home."

"Don't be too distant with me."

"As for the courtesy name, I am not a very cultured person, so I can't think of a very good one."

"After returning to Luoyang, I will help you find Cai Bojie and let him choose a good courtesy name for you."

Gu Yi, who is familiar with this period of history, naturally knows who Cai Bojie is.

This person is the leader of the current Han literary world, Cai Yong, Cai Bojie.

Of course, compared to Cai Yong himself, his daughter Cai Zhaoji is undoubtedly more famous.

It is worth mentioning that.

Cai Yong is one of the few literati who does not oppose Dong Zhuo.

On the contrary, he and Dong Zhuo have an extraordinary relationship; the two have known each other for decades.

Historically, after Dong Zhuo died, Cai Yong risked offending Wang Yun to cry for him, which eventually led to his execution by Wang Yun.

From this, it can be seen that the friendship between the two cannot be explained in a few words.

Seeing Dong Zhuo value Gu Yi so much, the expressions on the faces of the people around were varied.

After thanking Dong Zhuo,

Gu Yi was about to turn around.

Suddenly, he felt two burning gazes cast from behind.

One of them was nearly two meters tall, wearing Xichuan cloud-pattern armor, wearing a light white feather crown, and filled with dignity between his brows.

This person looked at Gu Yi with a hint of hostility.

The other person had a mediocre appearance, a common face that is very easy to disappear into the crowd.

This person was always expressionless.

But Gu Yi could clearly feel that this person had been secretly observing him.

"Friendly and harmonious" colleague relationships are very important in Gu Yi's view.

So, he immediately turned around and said to the two:

"I presume the two generals are Lu Bu and Xu Rong, whom the Prime Minister relies on?"

The two clearly did not expect Gu Yi to turn around suddenly, nor did they expect Gu Yi to guess their identities at once.

Therefore, a flash of surprise crossed their faces.

Lu Bu was a bit better.

After all, his recognizability is too high.

Although the father-killing artifact, the Fangtian Halberd, was not brought to the camp today,

with his appearance, it is easy to identify him.

But Xu Rong is different.

He has been a poker face from beginning to end.

Gu Yi was able to guess his identity at once, which is truly not simple.

As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person.

Even if Lu Bu had a natural hostility toward Gu Yi because he was recommended by Hua Xiong,

he could not show it at this moment.

Xu Rong was simply curious about Gu Yi, and there was not much hostility to speak of.

"Hahahaha, Gu Yi, your eyesight is really good."

"These two are indeed my excellent assistants."

"Before I could even introduce them, you were able to identify them yourself."

Dong Zhuo, who was on the side, came over with a smile to smooth things over.

Dong Zhuo was also quite shocked that Gu Yi could instantly identify Xu Rong and Lu Bu.

"It's just that the aura of the two generals is too powerful."

"Even if I wanted to not recognize them, I couldn't."

Gu Yi smiled.

Although he joined Dong Zhuo's army through Hua Xiong's connection,

it does not mean that he must hold a contemptuous attitude toward the Luoyang Imperial Guard and Bingzhou Army factions like the Xiliang direct line.

The importance of Xu Rong and Lu Bu to Dong Zhuo's camp is self-evident.

Especially Lu Bu.

If not handled well,

this fellow might become a "Thanos (Father) Killer!"

As for Xu Rong, don't look at this brother who has always had a poker face.
