Reborn in the Three Kingdoms: My Father Is Jia Xu, but He Won’t Teach Me

After dying suddenly, he was reborn as Jia Xu’s son. Others who are reborn in the Three Kingdoms bring a System, gunpowder, or modern armies, then immediately set out to conquer the land. Not him. His father, Jia Xu the Poisoned Scholar, left when he was six, saying only, “Watch the world with cold eyes.” He taught him no military tactics, no stratagems, and no martial arts. At seventeen, he left home with no ambition to contend for the Central Plains. Cao Cao summoned him, but he refused. Liu Bei visited three times, but he missed him. While others fought over Guandu and Chibi, he farmed in the mountain valleys of Wudu: improving the field-rotation method, building ponds and embankments, raising walled towns, and training elite crossbowmen. He recruited Zhang Liao, invited Xu Shu, and married the girl who had grown up in his family, six years his senior. At Changban Slope, he killed Xiahou En before Zhao Yun could and took the Green Gang Sword. At Chaisang, he intercepted Sun Shangxiang, who was supposed to marry Liu Bei. Years later, Sima Yi stood before the gates of Wudu, gazing at the calm man atop the walls, and remained silent for a long time. He searched for three years and still couldn’t find out who “Zhuge Qingfeng” really was. Jia Qingfeng simply wiped down the four-stone bow in his hands. My father is Jia Xu. But he never taught me this path.
