Cao Cao made a straight face and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Chang, this person, when I was in the Tiger Prison, I also had a fate, his fashion was immature, and he looked harmless to humans and animals. Now that I think about it, it's this son who hides it well. Now, he sits in the land of Youzhou, and finally revealed his ambitions, which should not be underestimated. ”

"What the lord said is exactly what he said!"

Xi Zhicai got up, looked around, and said in a condensed voice: "My subordinates have sorted out what Yuan Chang has done in the past these days, and found that Youzhou Mu is indeed extraordinary. Yuan Chang first followed Yuan Shao in the Tiger Prison Pass, and then was appointed by Yuan Shao as the county commander of Dongping County, when the Yuan family elected the patriarch, Yuan Chang helped Yuan Shao win the position of the patriarch, and then was appointed by Yuan Shao as the Taishou of Bohai County, Bohai County is the place where Yuan Shao made his fortune, Yuan Shao actually handed over this place to Yuan Chang to manage, which shows Yuan Shao's trust in him; after taking over as the Taishou of Bohai County, Yuan Chang encouraged business, developed agriculture, and reformed greatly, and Bohai County was flourishing under his leadership. Immediately afterwards, Yuan Chang led the soldiers of Bohai County and Yuan Shao to attack Youzhou, and for some reason, Yuan Shao handed over Youzhou to Yuan Chang to manage, but the reason for this is unknown. In addition to Yuan Chang himself, there are Guo Jia, Xun Chen, Dong Zhao and others under his command, and Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Tai Shici and others are all handsome at the moment, which can be described as strong soldiers and horses, if the lord wants to compete for the general trend of the world, Yuan Chang must be a strong enemy. ”

"The others don't know how, this Xun Chen is a member of the Xun clan?" Cao Cao thought for a moment and turned his head to look at Xun Yu.

"The lord is right, Xun Chen is a subordinate brother. ”

Xun Chen is Xun Yu's brother, there is no way to hide this, and there is no need to hide it. From ancient times to the present, the children of the family are scattered to follow different forces, even if one side fails, there will be others who succeed, which is why there is a saying of "a hundred years of dynasty and a thousand years of family", as long as they have always arranged the children of the family in this way, they will not let the family decline. Moreover, everyone's opinion is different, Xun Yu thinks that Cao Cao can achieve great things and follow Cao Cao, others may not think so, everyone follows the Ming Lord, and no one has anything to say.

"I see, how does Xun Chen compare to Wen Ruo?"

"Don't dare to deceive the lord, although the elder brother is not famous, but his talent is on par with his subordinates. Xun Yu didn't have reservations, and said with a straight color.

"I don't want Xun Chen to have such a talent, but he can't be used by me, it's a pity!"

Yingchuan Xun is a scholarly family, and its appeal in the world is very great, just a Xun Yu's refuge has allowed Cao Cao to gain a lot of talents. Moreover, Xun Yu is an elite who is evaluated as having the talent of Wang Zuo, and Xun Chen is on a par with Xun Chen. However, it is clear that there is no chance now. If Yuan Chang and Yuan Shao were all the way, Cao Cao was confident that he would still have the opportunity to recruit such talents, but it was obvious that Yuan Chang was different from Yuan Shao. rushed to Yuan Chang to go to Chang'an to greet the Son of Heaven, and you can know that Yuan Chang and Yuan Shao are not all the way.

"Lord, my brother's subordinates are not very worried, then Guo Fengxiao is the one who worries his subordinates. After hesitating for a moment, Xun Yu finally brought Guo Jia out.

"Oh, why is that?"

Cao Cao was a little surprised, Xun Chen had the same talent as Xun Yu, and he was afraid that he could count it on both hands in the world. However, Xun Yu actually said that Guo Jia is more worrying, could it be that Guo Jia's talent is stronger?

Sure enough, I only heard Xun Yu say: "Guo Jia is from a poor family in Yingchuan, and he and his subordinates both studied in Yingchuan Academy, and his subordinates talked to him, knowing that he has a wealth of knowledge and talents. If it weren't for the influence of some mundane things, I couldn't participate in Xu Shao's Yuedan review, otherwise, Guo Jia's comment would be above me. In terms of ability, Guo Jia is ten or a hundred times better than his subordinates. ”

"What, Guo Jia has such talent?"

Cao Cao was shocked, Xun Yu was originally rated by Xu Shao as a strategist with Wang Zuozhi's talent, and his talent was self-evident. However, Xun Yu said that Guo Jia's talent was ten or a hundred times more powerful than him, which was quite amazing. As for Xun Yu talking nonsense, it is naturally impossible, as the so-called Wen has no first, Wu has no second, and literati are also arrogant, and they will not casually belittle themselves and elevate others. Xun Yu said this, obviously this is true.

Cao Cao's face was solemn, and he asked, "Wen Ruo, you know Guo Jia, can you let him switch to my command?"

How could Cao Cao, such a talent, give up, it's just that Xun Yu looked bitter and sighed: "Don't dare to deceive the lord, when his subordinates came to serve the lord, they had already sent a letter to Guo Jiatong." Originally, Guo Jia had also replied that he was willing to come and meet the lord, but for some reason he later joined Yuan Chang's command. The subordinates know that Guo Jia is a person, and since they have identified Yuan Chang, they will not change easily, so if they want Guo Jia to join the lord's command, I am afraid that it is hopeless. ”

"There is such a thing!"

After listening to Xun Yu's words, Cao Cao couldn't wait to beat his chest, but he didn't expect that such an outstanding talent would miss him. However, it is useless to say more about it.

"However, Yuan often has Guo Jia, and I also have ambitions, but I am not afraid. ”

"The lord praises falsely, and his subordinates dare not be ashamed!"

Xi Zhicai bowed and responded modestly. Speaking of which, Xi Zhicai was also recommended to Cao Cao by Xun Yu, and like Guo Jia, he was from a poor family. As a child of a big family, if Xi Zhicai has no talent, how can Xun Yu intersect with Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia. Originally, Xun Yu wanted to recommend Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia to Cao Cao, and with the assistance of two people, Cao Cao's great achievements were naturally not a problem. Who knows, Guo Jia was actually cut off by Yuan Chang.

And Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia naturally know each other, and they can be said to cherish each other. Not to mention that the two of them are from poor families, and even their personalities are inseparable, although they met because of Xun Yu's relationship, but, in comparison, their relationship is closer than Xun Yu. Originally, there was still a chance to be a colleague, but who knew that now it was going to become an opponent. However, Xi Zhicai's heart is also full of fighting spirit, when he met Guo Jia, in his words, he knew that he was slightly inferior to Guo Jia, but Xi Zhicai would not be afraid of Guo Jia. This time to welcome the Son of Heaven, it seems that there is a chance to fight and compete.

"Everyone!"

Cao Cao shouted, attracting everyone's attention, and then said: "Originally, I was worried that Yuan Shao would intervene, but who knew that Yuan Shao had no intention of this, but there was an opponent who was more difficult than Yuan Shao. However, our Yanzhou soldiers are strong and strong, and you are also dragons and phoenixes among people, this time we must repel Yuan Chang, let him know that my Yanzhou is powerful, but I have confidence!"

"Victory!"

"Victory!"

The voice in the conference hall was boiling, and everyone was full of confidence. However, only Cao Cao, Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu were worried, of course, they naturally would not show it, so as not to hit their morale.

……

Xuzhou, the government of Picheng under the city

Liu Bei also actively gathered his subordinates together to discuss matters, and the discussion was naturally the order of Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty to convey the order of King Qin in the world, and the news that Yuan Chang conveyed to all forces in the world to go to King Qin.

In fact, from this point of view, the gap between Li Dao, Guo Yan and Cao Cao is really not ordinarily large.

Li Dao, Guo Yan and others held the Son of Heaven hostage, and they were able to make the Son of Heaven edict King Qin to the world; on the other hand, Cao Cao, after the Son of Heaven was held hostage by Cao Cao, he could not do anything except be a puppet. Even if you want to murder Cao Cao, you have to sneak around and get a cloth edict or something, but the result is not successful. Of course, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others can only be regarded as martial artists, and they have no strategy, so they are naturally not comparable with politicians like Cao Cao. However, Li Wei, Guo Yan and others have Jia Xu under their command, but Jia Xu was willing to give advice just to save his life, as for other suggestions, with his wise character to protect himself, he naturally won't say much. Otherwise, how could Jia Xu enjoy his old age in peace, from Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, Guo Yan, to Zhang Xiu, and later to Cao Cao. It can be said that Jia Xu has been reused all the way, and in the end he has not been connected, who can compare with him in terms of success? Therefore, Jia Xu's poisoner really deserves his name, in addition to his methods, it can also be said that his vision is vicious.

Since winning Xuzhou, Liu Bei can be described as high-spirited, as if he had a second spring, so he also accepted a second-room concubine. Of course, Mi Zhu has secretly taken refuge in Yuan Chang, and the reason why he stayed in Xuzhou is just to be an internal response, and when it works at a critical moment, it is naturally impossible to marry his little sister to Liu Bei. Therefore, Liu Bei's wife Nagant and the original Tao Qian's daughter took Cao Bao's daughter as a concubine.

Mi Zhen did not marry Liu Bei, which may be a good thing on the other hand.

Today's Liu Bei is an uncle in his thirties, although he says that he controls Xuzhou, but the Mi family has been in business for generations and has a lot of wealth, so there is no need to befriend Liu Bei. In history, Mi Zhu married Mi Zhen to Liu Bei, and also funded 2,000 slaves and countless gold and silver, so that Liu Bei had a chance to regain his strength. However, what is the ending of the Mi family in the end?

First of all, Mi Zhu has been treated by Liu Bei as a guest, and later Mi Fang surrendered the city, resulting in Guan Yu's defeat and death, Lu Zhu tied himself up to ask Liu Bei for guilt, Liu Bei comforted him in turn, thinking that his brother's sin had nothing to do with his brother, and treated him as before. But Lu Zhu became ill of shame and hatred, and died more than a year later.

Not to mention whether Liu Bei at this time was deliberately putting on a show or something else, just saying that Mi Zhu was treated very well under Liu Bei. However, he has no real power at all, and the official positions he has been sealed are just good reputations. Of course, Mi Zhu's death from illness can't say anything else.

As for Mi Fang, it was really miserable.

The final outcome was that he was killed by his brother-in-law, and the reason was naturally because Mi Fang killed Guan Yu. At that time, Sun Quan was preparing to attack Jingzhou, and Guan Yu naturally responded positively. He sent Mi Fang to prepare supplies, perhaps because of his fame after flooding the Seventh Army, Guan Yu was a little proud. Mi Fang is Liu Bei's brother-in-law, and Guan Yu is Liu Bei's sworn brother, so it stands to reason that the relationship between the two should be close. It's a pity that Guan Yu was too proud and didn't take these things into his eyes at all, so that Mi Fang had to severely punish Mi Fang after missing the time, so that Mi Fang finally took refuge in Dongwu in fear. Many people think that Mi Fang deserves it, Guan Yu is just engaged in military law, Guan Yu is at fault?

However, everyone should think about the mistakes Guan Yu made in Huarong Dao at the beginning, isn't it more serious than Mi Fang?

If it weren't for Huarong Dao Guan Yu to release Cao Cao, Liu Bei might have fulfilled his wish for unification long ago. Guan Yu also made a military order, and in the end, he did not cut off his head to apologize. Therefore, in this incident of Mi Fang, Guan Yu, Mi Fang, and Liu Bei are all at fault, and Liu Bei should not kill Mi Fang, at most beheading, why should it be so?

Finally, let's talk about Mi Zhen!

Before Liu Bei married Mi Zhen, Liu Bei had already had several wives, but because Liu Bei often fled from place to place, his wives all died, after all, how many people could stand such a day? Then, Liu Bei married Mi Zhen as his wife, however, among the concubines of Shu Han, there was no record of Mi Zhen, which was a bit unkind.

In Shu Han's "Biography of the Two Princesses", only Liu Bei's two wives and concubines are recorded, one is Liu Bei's Empress Gan (lady), that is, Liu Chan's biological mother. The other is Empress Mu, that is, Mrs. Wu, the sister of Wu Yi. But these two women have their own peculiarities, Mrs. Gan was originally Liu Bei's concubine, and Mrs. Wu was the widow of Liu Bei's fellow Liu Mao, and there is no clear record of the heir. Compared with these two women, Mrs. Elk can be said to be the only famous first-married main room in the historical records of Liu Bei, so in this regard, Mrs. Elk is the most qualified to enter the biography of the concubine, but why she failed to enter the "Biography of the Second Concubine" is very intriguing. If according to the traditional standard of "mother is more precious than son" under the feudal patriarchal society, Mrs. Elk was not included in the "Biography of the Second Concubine" because she had no heirs, then what will be the explanation for Mrs. Wu's unrecorded heirs in history who entered the "Biography of the Second Concubine"?

If Liu Bei Na and Mrs. Wu are interested in the power of the Dongzhou Group behind her, then Mrs. Elk's death also represents the Elk family's great help to Liu Bei. What's more valuable is that the Elk family's funding for Liu Bei was when Liu Bei was poor and white, and made Liu Bei make a comeback, and the three brothers and sisters of the Elk family can be said to have abandoned their families and careers to follow Liu Bei, and the material support for their careers and their spiritual inseparability are enough to support Mrs. Elk to enter "The Biography of the Second Concubine".

However, in fact, Mi Zhen was not recorded in Shu Han's "Biography of the Second Master Concubine", but only flashed in the biography of Mi Zhuben, which is unreasonable.

In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it is said that Mrs. Mi died by throwing herself into a well, however, in fact, Mrs. Mi's whereabouts are a mystery.

contributed the family business to Liu Bei, in addition to the eldest Mi Zhu's nominal official body, the endings of the second Mi Fang and the third Mi Zhen can be described as unsatisfactory. And now, Mi Zhu has thrown himself under Yuan Chang, and the ending has naturally changed, as for what kind of development it will become, it is unknown.

Liu Bei Chunfeng looked at his subordinate Wenwu with a full face, and asked, "If the son falls into the hands of thieves today, what good strategies do you have to teach me?"

It's just that in the face of Liu Bei's inquiry, everyone was speechless for a while, and the air was frozen for a while.
