The man who came to Chang'an to report a letter was in a panic and sad face.

Xun Zhen's heart was thunderous and he asked, "Who is coming from the letter? What happened in the letter?"

"Duke Sikong is dead!"

“…, when will it happen?”

"It was a few days ago that Sikong died of illness. After his death, Chang'an stepped up his express letter and just arrived."

It was originally agreed to perform actual combat, but suddenly I heard that Xun Shuang had passed away, so I definitely couldn't go to this exercise. Xun Zhen immediately called Xi Zhicai and Xu Zhong, and ordered them to be fully commanded by both of them. Xun Cheng, Xun Yu, Xun You and other Xun's children in the army were summoned to inform them of the news that Xun Shuang had died of Chang'an. For a moment, when I heard this bad news, Xun Cheng, Xun Yu, Xun You and others were all sad and crying.

Although everyone is a child of the Xun family, they are not all from the same lineage. For example, in terms of the distance between relatives and distant bloodlines, Xun Yu and Xun Shuang have a close relationship. Xun Yu is Xun Yu's follower, and Xun You and Xun Shuang have a slightly farther relationship, and Xun Cheng and Xun Zhen are even further away.

Although there are differences in closeness and distance, most of them have sincere feelings for Xun Shuang. No matter what, after Xun Fu passed away, Xun Shuang was already the leader of the Xun family in Yingyin. He was knowledgeable and elegant, and always caring for the children in the clan. Now he was on this storm and thunder in the world, he suddenly passed away and let go of immortals in Chang'an. It was obviously a considerable loss for the entire Xun family. For Xun Zhen and other children in the clan who had been caring and caring for him, he was even more sad about it.

Xun Zhen was actually mentally prepared for this.

Because he has memories of his previous life, he vaguely remembers that Xun Shuang seemed to die of illness while he was trying to deal with Dong.

Therefore, although Xun Zhen was also mourning, he was not like Xun You, Xun Yu, Xun Cheng and others because they were "off guard" and only mournful for a while was filled with his chest and abdomen. He could not imagine anything else and could not care about it. In contrast, he had to be much calmer in his words and deeds.

After Xun Yu and others cried for a while, Xun Zhen wiped away his tears and said, "Wen Ruo, Gongda, Zhongren, things have come to this point, Sikong has passed away, and it is useless to be sad. At this moment, in my opinion, we should immediately notify the clan of the funeral and discuss how to welcome Sikong's coffin back to his hometown... These two things are the most important things."

Xun Yu wiped away his tears and choked and said, "Brother said so much. I will immediately return to the middle school to report the death of the middle class."

Xun You sobbed and said, "The road in Chang'an is far away, and there are Dong Zhuo separated from each other. It is easy to carry the funeral, so it is not easy to welcome Sikong's coffin to return home."

Xun Zhen said: "What we are fighting with Dong Zhuo now is a state affairs; Sikong died of illness and welcomed the coffin back home, which is a family matter. I will send someone to Dong Zhuo as a letter and ask him to send Sikong's coffin to the boundary of Yingchuan County."

"I'm afraid he won't."

"How could the three princes die of illness and the coffin cannot return to their hometown? I will tell him in the letter: If you do not respond, you will lose the hope of the world."

"If he still doesn't?"

"Jia Xu, a wise man from Liangzhou, even if Dong Zhuo refuses to respond, he will definitely see the pros and cons of it and persuade me."

"If Dong Zhuo still doesn't respond?"

"Then there is only the last way: Xu Rong has a good relationship with me, so I can ask Xu Rong for help and make a move for me."

Because of Xun Zhen's "disaster plan", Xu Rong had suffered. Although he did not resent Xun Zhen because of this, Xun Zhen asked Xu Rong for help again, and probably in nine out of 10, Xu Rong would not help. Therefore, Xun Zhen said that this was the "last path" and there was no way.

"That's all I can do now."

Seeing that he had agreed on how to return to Xun Shuang's coffin, Xun Yu immediately left and returned home and went to the clan to report the death.

Xun Shuang's reputation is everywhere. He cannot just inform his clan members of his death. It is fine if it is too far away. However, Yingchuan County, Runan, Nanyang and other neighboring counties still need to send people to report separately. When Chen died, more than 30,000 people were mourning in the sky and thousands of cars were carriages. For example, Xun Shuang and Han Rong wore mourning clothes and held the etiquette of their descendants. Although Xun Shuang's reputation may be less than Chen's age, and he is not as good as Chen's "

", Chen Shi was 84 years old when he died of illness, and Xun Shuang was only 63 years old this year. However, in this case, in peacetime, the reputation of Xun Shuang would be at least more than ten thousand, and even inadequately, there would be thousands of people. However, in the current war, there may not be no notifications in places like Sili, Jizhou, Jingzhou and other places. Secondly, it may be notified. Most people may not be able to come because of the war.

Therefore, for the Xun clan, there is no need to make too much noise for Xun Shuang to bring funerals this time.

After seeing Xun Yu away, Xun Zhen immediately wrote a letter to Dong Zhuo, writing it out, and ordered someone to send it away immediately.

...

Two days later, in Luoyang Camp, Dong Zhuo received a letter from Xun Zhen and opened it to watch it.

After seeing it, Dong Zhuo lifted the letter, weighed a corner, trembled in his hand, and said to the left and right: "The two Yuans dare not fight, the soldiers of the sour jujube scattered, only Xun and Sun Xiaoyan were against me. Now Xun Shuang left, but Xun Zhen's son still dared to point fingers at me and asked me to send him the coffin!"

Li Ru asked in the seat: "Does the Prime Minister refuse to give it to him?"

"Unless he bows his head and admits defeat, it's just a delusion."

Jia Xu tilted his beard and said nothing.

Dong Zhuo saw Jia Xu's behavior and asked, "Wenhe, what? Could it be that you have any dissent?"

"Can you read the letters of Xun Hou?"

"What's wrong!"

Dong Zhuo signaled the soldiers on both sides and gave Xun Zhen's letter to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu looked at the ten lines at a glance, and finished reading it quickly, and said to Dong Zhuo: "I have a word below, I don't know whether to say it or not."

"What should I say inappropriately? Just say something!"

"I think that there is a very true statement in Xun Hou's letter."

"Oh? Which saying is 'very true'?"

"Mr. Xun said: How could the three dukes die of illness and the coffin cannot be returned to their hometown? If the duke blocks it, he will lose the hope of the world."

Dong Zhuo smiled contemptuously: "I am in this world, do I have any hope?"

Jia Xu remained silent.

When he was told about this, Dong Zhuo was so angry that he pressed the table, helped the soldiers from the left and right, walked to the ground in front of the desk, and said angrily: "Zhou Wei, Wu Qiong, who are the people who say that I should conquer the heroes of the world, recruit heroes from the country to assist the Han Dynasty, and hope for the world. I did what they said, what the result is? All the rats of these people secretly communicated with Yuan Shao! Since the Zhongping, the Yellow Turbans first rebelled, and then the prefectures and counties were in chaos, and thieves were rising, and the world was uneasy. Who can be at peace with the world? Are the three masters who bought with money or like Yuan Shao?

Such useless children of the public? Who else can rest assured to the world? But they are against me one by one! If they are really loyal, it would be fine, Han Fu is also a famous scholar, Liu Biao is also a famous scholar, these are all called "clear streams and sages". They are Jizhou and Jingzhou, but why do they compete with the two Yuans? And the sour people, each of them, are all for their own interests. To be honest, I will embarrass them! ...What are famous scholars and heroes? That is, Cao Cao, Bao Xin, Sun Jian, and Xun Zhen, several sons. Although they are young, they are a little worthy of my admiration because of their young."

Jia Xu said: "Zhou Wei is not virtuous when he is all the people. Since Duke valued Xun Hou and was able to be his opponent, why not give in a little now? Even though the two armies faced each other, they would be followed by Sikong's coffin, which will be passed down from time to time, and it can be said to be a good story in history."

Dong Zhuo said, "When thinking about Zhou Wei and Wu Qiong's contradictory people, anyway, the 'famous scholars' in the world are scolding me. Now I don't ask for good stories anymore. Now I just want to be happy. The more Xun Zhen's son asks me, the more I ignore it!"

Jia Xu can understand Dong Zhuo's mentality very well. It was originally "I will be facing the bright moon". I endured my personal desires, wooed and promoted them. The important scholars were despised and betrayed one after another. The result was only a "black moon shining on the ditches". Since this was the case, it would be useless to give any more. It was already famous all over the world. Seeing that Shandong prefectures and counties were starting to rise, it was impossible to pacify them all. Then, they would simply stop tolerating their nature. Not only did they no longer tolerate their nature, but they even became even more aggressive. Even if people said that they "treat the wrong way", it didn't matter. So even though they knew that returning Xun Shuang's coffin was just a small task, Dong Zhuo refused.

Jia Xu stopped persuading and thought to himself: "Shandong is now rebelling. Although the two Yuans do not fight and the soldiers of the Sourzao are dispersed, they have the foundation of this 'rebellion'. The prime minister takes the land within the pass and is enemies of the country, and he is willful and abandons himself. Even if he has a chance of winning, he may not have many."
