Volume 2 Qingzhou Zhipeng Section 85 Qingmei boiled wine / Fu Chang ~
The seeds tumble up and down in the clear water wine, and the enticing aroma of the wine looms among the green curtains. There is a saying that green plum boiled wine is a hero. At this moment, Cai Ji was boiling green plum wine in front of him, and he was lighting a bottle of agarwood in his hand, but what he was talking about was not "the hero of the world, only the king and the ear". When she saw her in a plain shirt and long skirt, she gently knocked on the tiger's mouth with a folding fan in her hand, and stared at the battle report placed on the case, and sighed to herself, "I never thought that Lu Bu would dare to oppose Yuan Shu after marrying his daughter." ”
In the face of Cai Ji's exclamation, Jia Xu, who was sitting opposite, seemed quite unimpressed. The old man was dressed in a blue-gray robe as usual, and coughed dryly on his slightly fistula back, "Yuan and Lu are both greedy and overturned, and it is true that they are married, but they are just teachers of the pawns, and they have no choice and cannot maintain each other. Therefore, it is not surprising that the two thieves turned against each other. ”
"Having said that, Lu Bu's surprise attack on Shouchun was a bit of a child's play, which made the world dumbfounded." Cai Ji shook his head with deep feeling. Although Lu Bu's capricious history books have long been recorded, this time Lu Bu's surprise attack on Shouchun still made Cai Ji have to sincerely marvel that this Lu Wenhou's thinking is really different from ordinary people. Doing things so willfully and recklessly, it is no wonder that even Cao Cao, who has always been thirsty for talents, can't tolerate him in history, and a generation of unparalleled fierce generals finally had to die in the White Gate Tower.
However, Cai Ji's words had just fallen, but Jia Xu twisted his three long beards and said in a deep voice, "Lu Bu's move, in the Central Plains, may be forgetting righteousness for profit; But in the border land, it is a matter of course. It must be known that people in the border areas do not know the five constants, and it is a natural principle to eat the strong by the weak. Since the lord has the heart to go through the border areas, he will have to deal with the border heroes in the future, and he must take this matter as a warning, and do not repeat the mistakes of Yuan Highway. ”
Jia Xu's "frontier people" refers to the many warlords and alien leaders stationed on the frontiers of the Han Empire. They chase fame and fortune, chase wealth, and follow the natural law of the strong like wolves. In fact, these frontier people are no more despicable and murderous than the princes of the Central Plains, they are just not good at using "benevolence, righteousness and morality" to hide their desires. In the same way, you can't expect these border warlords to take care of "face" like the princes of the Central Plains and play their cards according to the rules of the game in the Central Plains.
Fortunately, Cai Ji's soul comes from the era of "natural selection" 1,800 years later. Therefore, in response to Jia Xu's admonition, Cai Ji not only did not resist psychologically, but solemnly sat upright and responded with his hands, "Teachings, Ji keep them in mind." ”
As far as the respectful attitude of the girl in front of her is concerned, Jia Xu is still very useful. Because Cai Ji was born in a scholarly family, and his father was a famous Confucian in the officialdom, this made Jia Xu once worried that this female baby would not be able to accept the darkness of the scheme. But after a period of contact, Jia Xu's worries were all superfluous. Although Cai Ji is young, he is an extremely pragmatic person. She is neither a generation of Song Xianggong nor a member of Dong Zhuo. This girl knows very well the advantages and disadvantages of her own conditions, and how to make up for her own shortcomings. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is well versed in the art of power schemes. Since the other party is a smart person, Jia Xu has less worries when making suggestions.
But seeing that the old man with a solemn expression did not sell Guanzi, he said his thoughts in front of the girl's lord, "Lord, the alliance between Yuan and Lu has been destroyed, and the battle of Xuzhou can also be suspended." ”
Regarding Jia Xu's sudden armistice arguments, Cai Ji did not express surprise. In fact, after getting the news of Lu Bu's raid on Shouchun, Cai Ji's first reaction was also a "truce". Lü Bu's act of marrying a daughter once made Cai Ji think that history had been greatly revised, but Lü Bu's rebellion again made history seem to return to its original trajectory. It must be known that in history, at this moment, Lu Bu should have fought with Yuan Shushi under the instigation of Chen Qi's father and son and Cao Cao. It was not until both of them were defeated that Cao Cao, in the name of Emperor Han, joined Liu Bei to conquer Lü Bu first, and then clean up Yuan Shu. However, although Cao Cao has won a new victory over Yuan Shu, Cao's army has suffered a lot of losses in the previous battle of Runan. Whether it was to maintain morale or to recuperate, Cao Cao would suspend the offensive against the Lü and Yuan families as he had done in the original historical process, which can be seen from his act of allowing Yuan Shu to cross the Huai River. Since Cao Sikong, who is the leader, has the heart to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, Cai Ji, as a small warlord, will naturally not foolishly bet his net worth in Xuzhou to continue to fight with Lu Bu. However, it is something that anyone with a discerning eye can understand, but it cannot be said and done directly in front of the world.
So after thinking for a while, Cai Ji sighed at Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe is reasonable. It's just that the division must be famous, and the truce must also be justified. Cao Gong may be able to use Zhang Xiu's threat to Xu Du as an excuse to move his troops to crusade against Zhang Xiu and secretly provoke Lu and Yuan to fight. Sun Ce in the south can also use the banner of 'avenging his father' to attack Huang Zu. And Ji now has neither national hatred nor family hatred. The two thieves of Yuan and Lu have not been destroyed, how can Ji, as a Hanchen, easily cease the war? ”
Cai Ji's analysis of Cao Cao and Sun Ce's movements made Jia Xu, who was originally calm and relaxed, unable to help but raise his eyebrows slightly. In fact, this is not the first time Cai Ji has surprised Jia Xu. In Jia Xu's view, his little lord is quite "knowledgeable". This sixteen-year-old girl is often able to analyze her opponent's movements according to her temperament. As far as strategists go, Cai Ji is undoubtedly excellent. But Cai Ji is not a strategist, Cai Ji is a lord. As a lord, you must not only have the knowledge of people and be able to predict the trend of the general trend, but also have self-knowledge and be able to see the road under your feet. It's just that compared with the analysis of others, Cai Ji is not so decisive about his own direction. But if it weren't, why bother Jia Wenhe to sit here.
In the face of Cai Ji's exclamation, Jia Xu raised his eyelids and asked, "The reason for the truce?" The lord has forgotten General Yuan in the north? ”
"What does Wen Hegong mean to increase troops in Youzhou on the order of Yuan Shao?" Cai Ji pondered for a moment, then turned around and took a letter and handed it to Jia Xu and said frankly, "Wen Hegong, please see, even if Ji has the heart to go north to help in the war at this moment, I am afraid that General Yuan will not treat Ji as a friendly army." ”
Jia Xu took the letter and opened it, and knew that it was written by Guo Jia. It was mainly to explain to Cai Ji the situation of the bureaucrats and gentry in Donglai and Beihai during this period. It must be known that since Cai Ji went south, the two counties of Donglai and Beihai have been handed over to Tai Shici and Guo Jia. Tai Shi Ci has been on the battlefield for a long time and is a native of Qingzhou, and it is Cai Ji who is under his command of the rear Cai Ji can go south to attack Langya with peace of mind. However, no matter how impregnable a fortress is, there will inevitably be undercurrents. And it is the seemingly cynical Guo Jia who is monitoring this undercurrent.
And just as Jia Xu looked down at the letter, Cai Ji subconsciously cast his gaze over the curtain to another sky. It was a world of blue waves with the sea and the sky. The blue sea is sparkling, and the waves beat against the cliffs in a breathtaking rhythm. And the pavilion where Cai Ji and Jia Xu are located is located on the cliff, called "Langya Terrace".
Langya Terrace is also known as Wangyue Tower, it is said that it was built by Goujian, the king of Yue, one of the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period. Six hundred years ago, Gou Jian, the protagonist of the Yue Kingdom, first destroyed the Wu State, and then went north to conquer the Song, Zheng, Lu, Wei and other countries, and moved the capital from Huiji to Langya. Out of longing for his hometown, Gou Jian ordered Langya Terrace to be built soon after moving the capital, so that he could look south from here to his hometown Huiji. However, a Langya platform could not offset the homesickness of the soldiers of the Yue Kingdom, coupled with the lack of roots of the Yue State in the north, the newly annexed Wu State was ready to move. Gou Jian finally chose to meet the princes of Langyatai in Langyatai, swore a blood oath, and supported the Zhou room together. King Zhou Yuan ordered his ministers to give Gou Jian and named him Uncle Hou. Gou Jian has since become the last overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the road to hegemony of the Yue Kingdom has come to an abrupt end.
Cai Ji is not Gou Jian, and he is far from reaching Cheng Dù, who dominates the Central Plains. But now she is in Langya Terrace, but she has encountered a bottleneck similar to that of Gou Jian back then, that is, the lack of foundation. Although Cai Ji used his understanding of the historical process and some advanced consciousness to overcome the disadvantages of gender and age, he became a small prince who controlled the military and government in just two and a half years. But under the aura of rapid rise, both Cai Ji herself and her subordinates know in their hearts that half of Cai Ji's status today is borrowed by "borrowing". Borrow the power of Yuan Shao, the power of Gongsun Du, the power of Cao Cao, the power of Lu Bu, and the power of the general trend of the world.
Since there is "borrowing", there must be "repayment". At least for now, Yuan Shao's side has the intention of collecting debts from Cai Ji. According to Guo Jia's report, Donglai County, which used to be Cai Ji's "help", is now secretly communicating with some characters in Donglai and even Beihai. Among them, there are not only local tyrants who grovel in the name of the fourth and third princes, but also people who are active like Qian Mao in Changguang County. And what kneaded these people together was not so much the strategy of the management system, but the strength of Yuan Shao. Compared with Cai Ji when he first came to the end of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao has become the northern land after more than two years of operation, no, it should be said that he is the strongest prince in the Central Plains. Neither Gongsun Zan nor Gongsun Du could shake the fact that General Yuan dominated the North. In this case, anyone with a little ambition will inevitably want to get close to Yuan Shao. What's more, there is Cai Ji, a ready-made living role model.
Since that teenage girl can climb Yuan Benchu through guò and then become the guardian of a county, or even the pastor of a state. Can't it be done with Lao Tzu?
Many Qingzhou "celebrities" will more or less sprout similar sighs when they learn that their daughter's Cai Ji has become too punctual in Donglai. However, in the face of the jealousy of those who are about to move, Cai Ji does not feel annoyed, nor has he the heart to argue. This is the chaotic era of the late Han Dynasty, and there are no inspirational and ambitious epitaphs everywhere. As long as you have the heart, anyone has the opportunity to show their way. The difference is only that some people leave their names in the history books, while others turn into dust.
What's more, it's not just her Cai Ji family who has similar troubles. Cao Cao, who has become the commonplace of the dynasty, is also surrounded by such snakes and rats. Or how to come to the allusion of "Cao Cao burning letters" in the future. In the final analysis, Cao Cao and Cai Ji both borrowed Yuan Shao's strength, so it is no wonder that the people around them are inextricably linked with Yuan Shao. It's just that Cao Cao finally got rid of Yuan Shao's shadow and relied on a decisive victory on the battlefield. And now there are more than three years left before the battle of Guandu. So how should she, Cai Ji, deal with the eager wallgrass and careerists behind her?
"But the lord wants to clean up the portal?"
Jia Xu's inquiry interrupted Cai Ji's thoughts. At the same time, an eagle leaped out of its nest in the cliff. The lone shadow with wings spread in the wind looks very small against the backdrop of the ocean, but it is also extremely tenacious. The dark and plump wings did not sway in the slightest because of the headwind, on the contrary, for the eagle, the strong sea breeze was the help of its hovering upwards. Faced with this tenacious Sky Lone Wanderer, Cai Ji suddenly made up his mind. So the next moment, the girl turned her gaze to the old man and announced, "This house is going to draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle."
The four words of the bottom of the kettle seemed to have some kind of magic, which made Jia Xu's face smile for the first time. I saw him casually throw the letter into the clay oven where the wine was boiled, and said, "Since the lord has the heart to draw salary, he should go north." You must know that if you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger. ”
Since Cai Ji claimed that she wanted to draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle, it means that she has made up her mind to put aside the interference of the sprites and point the finger at Yuan Shao. In view of the current situation, it is the safest way to alienate Yuan Shao in the name of Emperor Han and switch to Cao Cao. But at this moment, according to Jia Xu's meaning, the other party seemed to want her to get closer to Yuan Shao. This made Cai Ji wonder and asked, "What is a tiger?" ”
"Dayi" After Jia Xu said words that were completely different from his personal style, he didn't wait for Cai Ji to ask, but explained to himself, "Everyone in the world knows that Yuan Shao is kind to the lord. If the Lord openly antagonizes him, he will be regarded as ungrateful. However, if Yuan Shao is like Yuan Shu, he holds high the anti-flag......"
"This mansion can learn from Sun Bofu in Jiangdong to destroy thieves with righteousness." Cai Ji took over the conversation with understanding. In fact, Cai Ji has not considered this possibility. It's just that both the historical data and the current situation show that Yuan Shao will not take the emperor lightly. Thinking of this, Cai Ji couldn't help but change his tone and said, "Wen Hegong's words are reasonable. However, in terms of courage, Yuan Shao is not comparable to Yuan Shu. Although Yuan Shu is extravagant and presumptuous, at least he dares to act. As for Yuan Shao, I'm afraid that there is a thief but no thief. ”
Jia Xu doesn't need to predict the future, and the historical data knows that Yuan Shao is the kind of person. Otherwise, he would not have rejected the olive branch offered by Yuan Shao when he was in the prime of life, and turned to small warlords like Zhang Xiu and Cai Ji. However, in the face of Cai Ji's accurate analysis at this moment, Jia Xu was unmoved, and still said categorically, "Then please ask the lord to put the jade seal in front of Yuan Shao to strengthen his courage."
Yuxi, Yuan Shao, to strengthen his courage...... At this moment, Cai Ji suddenly realized that the old man in front of him did not want her to wait for the official crossing, but asked her to create a zào official crossing
Hello everyone, it's even a black willow. First of all, I would like to apologize to the majority of book friends for the previous bounce. I said that I would stop the shift for a month and resume it in September, but it was delayed until mid-October to fill the hole, which is really sorry. In other words, pregnancy is really harder than even imagined. I thought it would be over the first three months, but I didn't expect that the fourth month was still reactive. The family also does not support the use of computers by even the elderly. Now I really don't dare to pat my chest at will to ensure that the update is guaranteed (╯□╰)~~~ But "Phoenix Wear" will still be written evenly, please rest assured that this point is still available.
After talking about the situation, let's talk about the progress of the book. As mentioned in this chapter, Xiao Cai's next stage will shift from Qing and Xu Erzhou to Hebei. Therefore, the third volume of "Dingzhi Spring and Autumn" will be a decisive battle between Xiao Cai and Yuan B's family, and a brawl between the Central Plains and Big B. Stay tuned~~~
