In addition to the beginning of spring, there are some climate troubles in this year, the rest of the time is OK, with a little lack of rain, but it is not considered a severe drought, and there is no major flood. Therefore, the grain harvest north of the Yangtze River is generally considered to be around the average year, and may not be as good as a bumper year, but it will not be much worse, especially in Yuzhou, where there is no war, and land farming should be relatively stable, so the price increase is somewhat doubtful.

Xun You considered strategic matters, which was his responsibility, but he did not expect that he only considered the general direction but ignored some small problems, or small details...

Xun Shi held up the letter and looked under the light. Suddenly, he seemed to have found something, and hesitated, "Sir, Father... look here..."

"Hmm?" Xun You was stunned.

Xun Shi raised the letter and saw that under the lights, some words in the letter were not known because of the ink color or the poor paper quality, which seemed to have some words penetrated the back of the paper and formed spots on the back of the paper.

Xun You read it over and over again several times. The letter started from "My Father's knees" to the end "Keep the father's blessings". It reads ordinary, which tells the story of family matters and the rise in grain prices in Yuzhou. It seems to be nothing different, but if you turn the paper over and look at it, the ink words passing through the back of the paper seem to have written some other problems...

After Xun You looked at it, his face suddenly turned pale. Then he turned around in the study with his hands behind his back, then sat down and said to Xun Shi: "It's getting late, so you can rest early."

Xun Shi was stunned for a moment, hesitating a little.

"It's okay. I'll deal with it." Xun You waved his hand and said, "Go and rest."

Xun Shi then bowed.

Xun You and Xun Shi left, and read the letters over and over again several times. A wise man must have a mistake, because Pang Tong left Chang'an, and most of the matters of Shangshu Ling were handled by Xun You as the main person in charge, especially as the autumn harvest is approaching. Whether it is granaries, personnel arrangements or vehicle dispatches, they all need to be prepared in advance. Even the food and grass eaten by the animals of the transport vehicles must be arranged in advance. Otherwise, if there are any mistakes in a certain link, more problems may arise...

So Xun You was very busy and almost missed the hidden news in the letter.

Fortunately, his child found out.

Although Xun You was calm in front of his children, after his children left, he sat alone in the study. When he thought about the consequences of missing this information, Xun You couldn't help but sweat a lot...

At dawn the next day, Xun You got up, wash, eat, go out according to his usual habits, and even the expression on his face was no different from usual. He kept it to the Shangshu Desk. After taking the summary of the articles, he met Fei Qian. Then he first reported the summary of the relevant matters, and then paused for a moment, showing a little worried expression.

Seeing this, Fei Qian asked, and then Xun You said the letter for a moment and presented it to Fei Qian.

Fei Qian looked at the letter, and then with Xun You's guidance, he found that there were "abnormalities" in some words in the letter.

If the texture of the paper is poor, the characters with more strokes will be stained with ink, and even through the back of the paper. This is normal, but if the characters with less strokes appear, the characters with more strokes will also stain the back of the paper...

"Well... Lu, no, An..." Fei Qian looked back and forth while pronounced the words that seemed a little abnormal. The strokes of these words were very few, but the ink color on the back of the paper was a bit heavy, just like someone wrote it first and then added ink color to the strokes.

So it should be "Lu Buan"?

Fei Qian subconsciously thought of this and then felt that something was wrong.

"The word Lu has been three times... It should be taken as Lu Ling..." Xun You explained on the side.

So is it "Lululu uneasy"?

Well, not either.

Fei Qian frowned slightly, then recalled the "Lu Ling" in the Book of Songs, and then moved his heart and looked up at Xun You, "Gongda, the meaning of this letter is... to make the young master in danger?"

Xun You was silent for a moment, nodded slowly, and some sadness appeared in his eyes, "I think...this is the same..."

"Lu Ling" is generally a poem describing the skills and virtues of hunters. It means that someone takes a hunting dog and then has a kind character, curly hair and beard, and has the appearance of an elder.

"Lu" is a black hunting dog. The three Lu refers not only to the three-part chapters of "Lu Ling", but also to express another meaning, the utensil for eating.

As for hunting, it is better to understand, killing, seeing blood.

Either a hunter or a prey.

If you extend it casually, you will see "the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys are cooked". In addition, "Lu Ling" means "Lu Ling" in the preface to Mao's poems, "Lu Ling" means "thorn"...

On the surface, the letters say that the price of grain is high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to eat now. What is the use of utensils for eating? Doesn’t it just echo this hidden meaning?

The "Book of Songs" was taught in the Han Dynasty. The four schools of Mao's long-born poems were written by the Zhao people, called "Mao Shi". The books he explained the Book of Songs were also commonly found in the Xun family. Therefore, although the "sting" in Mao's preface is ironic, the two words "uneasy" added with the emphasis and subsequent words "uneasy" generally mean "assassination" and "danger".

Of course, Fei Qian came up with this implicit meaning thanks to a noun from later generations, "Boards".

In the Han Dynasty, the word "Wang" has no meaning, but the orthodox "lofty, vast" meaning, so I really understand this secret "Lu Ling" by hunting to metaphorize blood and difficulty in eating to metaphorize the danger of the vessel. Fei Qian thought of Xun Wang directly through the black hunting dog, and immediately understood...

It can also be considered a different path to the same end to some extent.

Xun Wang is dead.

Xun may come back to take charge of Xun's family.

Of course, the big storm cannot be overturned, but under the calm water surface, there may not be no undercurrents.

The fall of Xun Wang means that many people who had previously attached themselves or had close ties with Xun Wang were unlucky because of this. Some people died with Xun Wang, and some people survived, but lost their authority and interests. Among these people, will everyone be willing to accept this result with peace of mind? Will there be no resentment towards Cao Cao or Xun?

Obviously impossible.

Just like some people in later generations did not dare to seek revenge directly for power because of certain things, but instead targeted those weak people. They were bullied by a boss and did not dare to cause trouble for that boss. As a result, they knocked an irrelevant and completely unfamiliar woman who passed by her side to death.

Why?

Because I dare not beat the boss who appears to be strong, I only dare to beat the stranger who appears to be weak. Maybe it is the unlucky woman, maybe it is even weaker, such as a child...

The situation in Yingchuan is generally similar.

These people did not have the courage to trouble Cao Cao and Xun You, but they showed malice to Xun You's children who remained in Yingchuan.

Xun You and Xun may have a relative relationship, and Xun You is in Chang'an again, so there is even more reason.

Is it equivalent to killing Xun You's children? Then rounding it up is just like killing Xun Or's children?
