117. [114] Two minds

It took Shen Xian a little effort to understand who the lucky one who was left behind in Jia Xu's mouth was.

is also a royal child surnamed Liu, and now he is helping Shen Xian in Yangzhou to conscientiously guard Liu Xuan, a border important place in Lujiang.

After thinking about the true meaning of Jia Xu's words, Shen Xian felt a chill all over her body for a moment.

What Jia Xu means is that except for Liu Xuan, the Liu family who has been divided into his own categories, the rest of the people, whether they are the real Han bloodline or those who swagger and deceive in the name of the Han family, will all be destroyed, and they can destroy the corpses and destroy the bones and scatter ashes so that they can no longer threaten Shen Xian's status, even if they don't do it so desperately, those people will not be able to escape the fate of imprisonment in the end.

In a word, all overt and potential dangers must be strangled in the cradle.

Jia Xu's mention was unanimously approved, and everyone present except for Shen Xian, who had been trembling, no one felt that Jia Xu's behavior was too aggressive for a moment, and even Xun Yu agreed after thinking for a while.

It is true that Jia Xu's trick is really scary, but there is a reason for it, after all, the battle for the throne has always been bloody and cruel, and the winner stepped on the bones of countless people to reach the last position.

Perhaps seeing Shen Xian's unbearability, after the others left, Guo Jia said to Shen Xian slowly: "Think about how that person treated you, lord, don't be soft-hearted at this time." ”

"I didn't." Shen Xian rubbed her face: "I was just thinking, he poisoned me, and I will bully others again, in fact, there is no difference between us." And even if there is no Liu Jingsheng, Liu Xuande, and their son, their son's son, all kinds of messy family ......"

Killing will never solve the problem, it will only produce a bunch of problems left over from history.

"The dead are the most obedient, but they are also the most troublesome." Guo Jia smiled: "Wen He doesn't want to kill them all, he said that in order to highlight the severity of the problem, the lord you can understand it according to Cheng DΓΉ's light aspect." ”

Cheng dΓΉ tap ...... That's house arrest, right?

"Containment." Guo Jia endured it for a long time and didn't hold it back, and secretly stretched out his paws to smooth Shen Xian's soft and straight long hair.

Shen Xian was pondering Guo Jia's word "containment", and she didn't notice Guo Jia's small movements for a while, and when she realized that someone was eating tofu while no one was eating tofu, Guo Jia had already sat upright, his face was full of innocent expressions, as if the person who stretched out his paws just now was not him.

Shen Xian stared at Guo Jia for a long time, and suddenly felt that she especially wanted to pick up something and smash it on Guo Jia's face. This temper tantrum came like a gust of wind for no reason, so when Shen Xian came back to her senses, she had already put her thoughts into action.

Guo Jia picked up the bamboo slip thrown by Shen Xian with a shocked face: "Lord, what's wrong?" ”

Do you want to be beaten if you touch it? What can I do after that?

"I ......" Shen Xian was stunned, and then she snatched back the bamboo shortcode in the corner of the table: "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired." ”

Guo Jia, who was skeptical, coaxed away, and Shen Xian threw herself on the table like a soft piece of paper and didn't move.

I don't want to think about anything, I just want to empty myself, and I don't want to move lazily......

It took a long time for Shen Xian to overcome her lazy cancer and get up, and she muttered and complained that it was really boring to be alive, while slowly starting to prepare for the next plan.

It's still Xun Yu who stays behind.

Xun Yu stayed behind so many times Shen Xian couldn't bear it, she specifically asked Xun Yu if she wanted to go out with her to grab the land, and got a strange look from Xun Yu: "Lord, I think Chengdu is very good, after all, it is close to home." ”

…… All right.

Xun Yu finished it was Cai Yan's turn, Shen Xian originally wanted Cai Yan to go to Jiangxia or Nanjun Town to keep an eye on Liu Biao, and if necessary, he directly attacked and beat him, but Cai Yan slowly refused.

"Lord, I'll stay in Chengdu to supervise the grain and grass and military supplies." Cai Yan smiled slightly, reached out and put a handful on his lower abdomen: "I'm pregnant." ”

Shen Xian: ".................."

Shen Xian almost roared, but her reason reminded her that she must not yell at a pregnant woman, in case she frightened someone's baby, it would be dangerous.

"Are you sure?" Shen Xian stepped forward with a lunge and grabbed Cai Yan's wrist and touched it: "Have you seen my master?" ”

"Where does this little thing need to bother Doctor Hua?" Cai Yan waved his hand indifferently: "I'm a doctor myself, can't I get a slippery vein?" ”

After really feeling the feeling that the veins under her fingers were fluent and smooth, like small beads rolling in turn, Shen Xian carefully put Cai Yan's wrist back on the table, and then she began to clean up the miscellaneous things on Cai Yan's desk, such as inkstones, paperweights, or sharp or heavy things were taken away, and finally the table was clean and there was nothing left.

Cai Yan couldn't cry or laugh, seeing that Shen Xian still wanted to continue to clean up the things around her, she hurriedly said, "Hey, lord, forget it, don't be so troublesome." ”

"No, no, no." Shen Xian said seriously: "Gongda can entrust you to me before leaving, I have to take care of you." ”

Shen Xian immediately called for red sleeves and put a bunch of pickled plums on Cai Yan. Although Cai Yan is still not happy, in Shen Xian's expectant gaze, she picked up one and tasted it with a heroic and righteous mood, and unexpectedly found that it was really delicious.

So Cai Yan talked to Shen Xian while gnawing on sour plums: "You don't have to worry about Nanjun, even if I don't go, with Gu Zisian and Fa Xiaozhi staring at them, there won't be any big problems." ”

"It's because of them that I'm not at ease, okay?" Shen Xian pouted: "Fa Xiaozhi is enough to come to Hu, Gu Zisian may not be able to suppress it - it's good that the two of them don't work together, and there is also a Taishi Ziyi ......"

Once Tai Shi Ci and Fa Zheng hit it off, it was really a rhythm that would turn the sky every minute.

"Then let Xingba go?" Cai Yan said: "Although Xingba looks like Hang'er Langdang, it is actually quite reliable. ”

Shen Xian shook her head: "You can't send all the manpower out, and Yizhou has to keep him to command the army." ”

After tossing for a long time, she couldn't choose someone, and finally Shen Xian simply gritted her teeth: "Come on, I'll run it myself." ”

Cai Yan smiled: "I think you might as well go directly to Hanzhong." ”

Shen Xian became interested, she picked up a sour plum and threw it into her mouth to chew, and asked without changing her face: "What do you say?" ”

Cai Yan looked around and made sure that no one else was approaching here before he hooked his finger at Shen Xian: "I'll just think about it, just listen to it." ”

Cai Yan meant that although Yuan Shao released 60,000 people in Chencang Pass to scare Liangzhou and Yizhou, it did not mean that if Shen Xian sent troops from Hanzhong, the 60,000 people in Chen Cangguan would be able to immediately fight Shen Xian.

The reason is very simple, that is, food and grass and military supplies.

Yuan Shao's current strength, a steady stream of food, clothing, shelter and transportation for 70,000 people, and the distribution of weapons to them to attack Yanzhou, can last about a year or so is not a problem, but if another 60,000 troops are divided to start a two-front war, Yuan Shao will not be able to hold on.

Of course, Yuan Shao can also shorten the battle time with Yanzhou, but who can say how long it will take him to take Yanzhou? Yuan Shao is not a fool, he tried his best to consume himself to nothing, even if he really killed Cao Cao? There is also a Shen Xian in the back, and when Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are both defeated, they let Shen Xian pick up the cheap.

Therefore, the 60,000 defenders of Chencang Pass will not attack unless they have to, and they stay there only to serve as a deterrent. After all, the collecting troops usually grow their own fields, self-sufficient, and it is easy to solve the problem of food and clothing, but once the war starts, everyone goes to the battlefield, and no one grows the land, so they have to let the rear rumble and mobilize, and the people not only have to bear their own lives, but also make up enough food and grass for the soldiers, double or even triple the burden, and they will soon be unable to bear it.

"Actually, the problem in Hanzhong is not big, we pulled most of the troops over, just in case, but if the two sides just look at each other to deter, it will be too wasteful." Cai Yan analyzed: "Yuan Benchu didn't dare to come to beat us, so we can't fight him?" ”

"You mean, we also learn from Yuan Benchu?" Shen Xian said: "Deter Nanyang and Runan County, and then unite with Ma Shoucheng to send troops from Hanzhong to fight Sili?" ”

"Yuan Benchu was sure that we didn't dare to do anything to Si Li, because that was where the Son of Heaven was, and if we rushed to send troops, we would be labeled as a rebel." Cai Yan nodded: "But this kind of thing is also lacking a name, didn't Yuan Benchu occupy the division under the banner of welcoming the Son of Heaven?" ”

Shen Xian's eyes lit up slightly: "If we can get the holy decree of the Son of Heaven, then we will be ordered to be the king of Qin......"

Cai Yan smiled slightly: "The rebellious minister and thief who plotted against him is his Yuan Benchu." ”

"The idea is good," Shen Xian shrugged, "but it's hard to achieve." ”

Since Yuan Shao occupied Sili, he sent a large number of troops to guard the passage between Sili and other states and counties, strictly inspected the passing people, and tried to find out every spy who sneaked into the country.

If you can't enter the city, you can't deliver the news, let alone enter the heavily guarded palace to meet the emperor. And even if Shen Xian could see Liu Xie, she was not sure that she would be able to ask Liu Xie for the holy decree of King Qin, after all, in Liu Xie's eyes, Shen Xian's cheap sister was no different from Yuan Shao, a wolf and a tiger, all staring at the throne under his ass, ready to overturn him at any time.

Cai Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Hmm...... At this time, you need to turn to Wenhe or Fengxiao for help. ”

Although Shen Xian never interferes too much in the affairs of other people's supervisors, everyone will still take the initiative to report to Shen Xian when they open up new business, after all, they have to wait for the boss to approve the funds. Based on this, Shen Xian of course knew that Guo Jia and Jia Xu had applied for a new official system in Yizhou a few years ago, claiming to be named Si Liwei, nominally under Xun Yu's control, but since the day it was founded, Xun Yu had never touched a single cent of Si Liwei's affairs, or that the affairs of Si Liwei handed over to Xun Yu for review were only on the surface.

The Celebrant guards don't care about etiquette, and what they actually do is somewhat similar to that of a secret service.

Under Shen Xian's acquiescence, Xun Yu turned a blind eye and only allocated money to make false accounts, while Guo Jia and Jia Xu took the money and secretly selected countless people, these people may be officials or ordinary people, but when they went through the secret assessment and finally accepted Si Liwei's invitation, they all became Shen Xian's most solid and secret eyes and ears.

These ears and eyes are scattered everywhere, Shen Xian's sphere of influence is there, and there are also zΓ i in other people's spheres of influence. They are like nails hidden in the dark, usually not revealing the landscape, but once they receive orders from their superiors, they will rush out to help their masters clear an obstacle.

Two-thirds of the various secret information that Shen Xian received was provided by Si Liwei, and the remaining one-third was the credit of the Xun family.

Cai Yan mentioned it, Shen Xian felt that this was indeed feasible, raising troops for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, let Si Liwei use his hands and feet to bring her into Chang'an City, and then sneak into the palace to see the emperor......

But Cai Yan flinched at this time, and she shook her head helplessly: "No, lord, otherwise forget it, once you go to the two of them, you are bound to tell the purpose, and the matter of sneaking into the imperial city to ask for the holy decree must be a very weighty person to go, so they will not agree." ”

To put it bluntly, Shen Xian must infiltrate the palace alone, persuade the emperor to get the holy decree, and then turn Chang'an upside down and then retreat. Although Shen Xian felt that with her skills, as long as she had a careful plan, it would be no problem to do this. But others don't think so, everyone takes Shen Xian's safety as the first priority, and they will not agree to her risking her life.

Shen Xian sighed and felt a little irritable: "If you don't tell me, forget it, you can't do it, I scratch my heart uncomfortably." ”

"You're not going to want to sneak away, are you?" Cai Yanhu stared at Shen Xian suspiciously, and saw through her thoughts at a glance: "Lord, this kind of thing can't be joked, you are sensitive now, even if there is the slightest possibility that Yuan Benchu knows the truth, we will be completely in a passive place." ”

"Then why are you telling me this!" Shen Xian said sadly: "You have to recruit me!" ”

"It's just talking......" Cai Yan scratched his head: "If you have an idea, don't let me say it, I can't help it." ”

Shen Xian: "......" pregnant women are the biggest, and I can't be angry with her.

In the end, Shen Xian left helplessly, and Cai Yan told her with a smile on her face: "Lord, you must not come nonsense, I want to sue SΓΉ Fengxiao and Wenhe for this matter!" ”

Shen Xian waved her hand: "Got it!" ”

Cai Yan shook her head and withdrew her gaze, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of the crystal plate on the corner of the table, and found that the plate full of sour plums was gone.

Cai Yan was shocked: "...... Is it all I eat? Not at all! ”

After thinking about it, Cai Yan was sure that he only contained a few pieces, so where did the rest of the words Mei go?

Belch...... It won't be ...... It's in Shen Xian's stomach, right?

Staring at the empty plate, Cai Yan thought helplessly: What kind of hobby is Shen Xian, such a sour plum can bite down.

Running into walls in Xun Yu and Cai Yan made Shen Xian a little unhappy, so she went to Jia Xu angrily.

Only Wenhe is the most reliable, and he will not disappoint me. Shen Xian thought silently.

Jia Xu really didn't disappoint Shen Xian, Shen Xian wanted to send him to Hanzhong to help Zhang embroider the mallet head, Jia Xu agreed without saying a word, but he had a request, he wanted to bring Diao Chan.

"......" Shen Xian lifted the table: "What are you taking people to do!" Do you want to be a maid! ”

Jia Xu shook his head: "Lord, you underestimate her ability too much...... I want her to lead the troops. ”

"Oh?" Shen Xian blinked, deliberately stimulating Jia Xu, hoping to see the word jealousy from him: "Is it so powerful?" I wanted her to find something to do, but she just wanted to bring me a cup of tea next to me and give me a leg beat, oh yes, she fed me grapes! ”

Jia Xu looked at Shen Xian speechlessly with a triumphant expression.

After a while, Jia Xu nodded very calmly: "Yes, she ...... He used to be the secret guard of the Yang Mansion. ”

"I know, you said that." Shen Xian said very casually: "And she also mentioned it to me." ”

"So...... She's amazing. Jia Xu said in a low voice.

Is there any necessary connection between this? And you don't have to repeat it over and over again, Diao Chan is so handsome and powerful, we all know it, thank you. Shen Xian just wanted to complain, but when she saw Jia Xu's expression, she understood at that moment.

"You want her to be in the Celestial Guard?" Shen Xian frowned slightly: "Isn't this okay?" ”

Jia Xu thought that Shen Xian was doubting Diao Chan's loyalty: "She won't-"

"That's not what it meant." Shen Xian said helplessly: "Have you asked her opinion?" Since she has the talent to command the army, you press her into the kind of organization that carries out assassination, don't you feel wronged by her? ”

Jia Xu: "...... Lord, we are not engaged in assassination. ”

"Pretty much the same thing." Shen Xian shrugged: "That's not the point. ”

"The point is, why can't she live in the sun? Why do you want to pull a good girl into the abyss? ”

Although Jia Xu did not disappoint Shen Xian, the two could not reach a consensus on the issue of Diao Chan temporarily, Jia Xu insisted on taking Diao Chan with him, and Shen Xian thought that Jia Xu could not arrange Diao Chan into Si Liwei so hastily. So in the end, both sides took a step back, Jia Xu first promised not to let Diao Chan contact Si Liwei's affairs, and Shen Xian agreed that Jia Xu would take Diao Chan to Hanzhong together.

Shen Xian continued to find someone else to arrange tasks, looking at her departing back, Jia Xu smiled lightly, and he said in a low voice: "Lord, it's not that I want to pull her into the abyss, but she has always been there and has never been out of it." ”

Shen Xian continued to be depressed, and she found Zhou Yu and Sun Ce on the spot.

Zhou Yu was playing the piano, while Sun Ce sat next to him with a bored expression. Zhou Yu played very well, but unfortunately Sun Ce didn't know how to appreciate it at all, and he completely chewed peonies.

"It's finally our turn?" Zhou Yu stopped playing the piano, he pressed the strings with one hand, and looked at Shen Xian with a smile: "How is it?" Where are you going to send me? ”

"Lujiang, didn't you choose it yourself." Shen Xian smiled: "It's troublesome for the two brothers to help Cao Mengde stabilize Runan." ”

"More than that." Sun Ce yawned: "Gongjin has sued me, and you want me to say, what's the use of containment, just send troops to beat his mother-"

Zhou Yu picked up the incense burner and smashed it on Sun Ce's head: "Speak well." ”

"Oh." Sun Ce stretched out his hand to grab the incense burner and pouted: "Let's fight, if you hit Runan, you can fight Nanyang, when the time comes, third sister, you will send troops from Nanjun, and I will send troops from Runan, let's go hand in hand and kill Liu Jingsheng together!" ”

The more Sun Ce spoke, the more excited he became, and the light in his eyes flickered slightly.

"Hmm...... I actually ......" Shen Xian has been thinking about Cai Yan's previous thoughts, although Cai Yan has repeatedly begged Shen Xian to forget about it, don't you think about it, but aren't people like this? The more people say things that can't be done, the more they want to try them.

"Actually, what?" Zhou Yu said lightly: "Actually, you want to fight Si Li first?" ”

Shen Xian jumped up: "How do you know?!" ”

"Guess casually." Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes: "You don't still want to find the Holy Lord to ask for a holy decree and then serve the king of Qin, right-"

Shen Xian looked at Zhou Yu with a frightened expression, and Sun Ce patted her on the shoulder and comforted: "Just get used to it, Gong Jin can often guess what I'm thinking." ”

What is there to be proud of! Shen Xian looked at Sun Ce speechlessly, a fool can guess what you are thinking! Because you've got it all written on your face!

"I don't agree." Zhou Yu said decisively: "It's too dangerous, even if you say that you have a well-planned plan and an internal response, it just won't work." ”

Facing Shen Xian's dissatisfied gaze, Zhou Yu sighed: "Your Royal Highness Princess, we can't risk you now, not at all. ”

Zhou Yu said everything about this, Shen Xian had to compromise, she counted with her fingers: "Okay, I'll go to Nanjun, you and your eldest brother will go to Lujiang, Wen He will take Diao Chan to Hanzhong, Wen Ruo Zhaoji and Xingba will stay in Chengdu......"

"Wait." Zhou Yu glanced at Shen Xian: "You bring Guo Fengxiao with you." ”

Shen Xian was inexplicably weak by Zhou Yu, and she cautiously tested: "What to take him for?" He's still recuperating. ”

"Enough of it, during this time, he is just wandering around except eating." Sun Ce unceremoniously smeared Guo Jia: "It's very free." ”

Zhou Yu smiled slightly, and said bluntly: "I don't worry if you don't take him, especially if you put you with Fa Xiaozhi and Ziyi." ”

Shen Xian had just disliked the trio of Fa Zheng, Gu Zheng and Tai Shici with Cai Yan before, but she was disgusted by Zhou Yu in a blink of an eye, and the retribution of the present world came so quickly.
