Chapter 175: Have You Been Polite?
Nanyang County is the foundation of Yuan Shu.
However, Yuan Shu provoked Cao Cao in Yanzhou two years earlier, and Cao Cao led his army to defeat him, and he had to withdraw all his troops from Nanyang County.
Yuan Shu is gone, and the big families in the counties of Nanyang County can't go.
So they took out money and food on their own, recruited troops and horses, and formed an army to prevent the invasion of other forces.
Because they finally understood a truth: it is better to rely on no one than on yourself.
When Han Cheng led the army of Fenwu and arrived thirty miles north of Wancheng County, Nanyang County, the chief general of Wancheng County ordered the soldiers to go to the city, the whole city was on guard, and sent men and horses to Han Cheng's army to inquire about the news.
Han Cheng treated the people who came to inquire about the news with courtesy, and explained the situation to them in detail, so that he believed that the Fenwu Army had no intention of attacking Wancheng County.
Because Han Cheng knew that the Xiliang army of Li Dao and others was behind him, and he would be able to come in a few days.
I must open the road as soon as possible, and if I walk a little more, I will have more vitality.
The main general in Wancheng County had not gone through several major battles, and he was not very sure about the battle between the two armies, and when he heard the news, he came back to tell Han Cheng about the peace he had released.
With great joy in his heart, he arranged a marching route for the Fenwu Army, arranged for his subordinates to be sent to Han Cheng's army, and let Han Cheng quickly lead the army out of Nanyang County.
Han Cheng had a route, and he was very grateful to this lord in his heart, so he ordered someone to send three thousand taels of gold to express his gratitude.
After receiving Han Cheng's three thousand taels of gold, the master felt that he could not accept Han Cheng's three thousand taels of gold in vain, so he ordered someone to send a large amount of grain and forage, and reached a good friendship with Han Cheng.
After Han Cheng got a large amount of supplies, he left Nanyang County non-stop and rushed to Yingchuan County according to the route given by the main general of Wancheng County.
......
Yangzhai County, Yingchuan County, where the county is located, as long as you want to pass through Yingchuan County, or go north or south, you must pass through Yangzhai County, so the location of Yangzhai County in Yingchuan County is becoming more and more important.
Not far from Yangzhai County near the East City Gate, there is a "Taibai Restaurant", which is a comprehensive restaurant, which can eat, stay, as long as you have money, there are singing and dancing and sleeping and so on.
The signature dish of the store, Taibai braised fish, is sweet and fat, and its flavor is endless. It is famous throughout Yangzhai County, and even in the entire Yingchuan County.
On this day, a scribe dressed in white cloth and wearing a square scarf came to the restaurant.
I saw that above his handsome face, under the sword eyebrows, his narrow eyes were like gurgling spring water, warm and moist like a spring breeze; The nose is like a gall, as straight as a distant mountain in the blue color, and the corners of the mouth are slightly hooked, which seems to be polite and polite, revealing a 'flow of air'.
As soon as the man in white entered the door, he shouted to the guy in the store, "Stay in the store for five days." ”
The guy in the shop had a fierce eye, and saw that he didn't bring an entourage, and he didn't look like a noble child.
said in a lukewarm tone: "This guest officer, staying in this hotel, needs to pay the room fee first. ”
The man in white took out the usual copper coin from his bosom and said, "Is it enough?" ”
When the guy in the store saw the copper coin, his face immediately changed, but he still said seriously: "Traditionally, the money can live for three days, and the guest officer has to live for five days. ”
A trace of distress flashed on the face of the man in white, and he took out the usual copper coin from his arms, and said in a subtle voice like a mosquito that only he could hear: "I have saved money for several years." I originally wanted to try the braised fish in Taibai, but it seems that I have to wait for Han Cheng to treat him. ”
Three days later, in the early morning, the man in white got up early and sat on the second floor near the window, with only a small plate of peanuts and a pot of wine on the table, but the wine was already cold.
The man in white looked at the East City Gate intently, and said in his heart: "Calculate the foot strength, you should have entered the city yesterday, why is this Han Cheng so slow?" Could it be that something has changed? ”
When he was thinking about it, he saw a team of about twenty people coming to the east city gate, and the young man in the middle was extraordinary, and he raised his hand to reveal the posture of a person who had been in the top position for a long time.
When the man in white saw it, he was immediately overjoyed and came to pay.
He said to the guy in the shop, "Man, bring me a portion, oh no, two servings of braised fish, four specialty dishes and two pots of hot wine." I've been hungry these days, and I'm going to make up for it. ”
The guy in the store looked confused, what's wrong? Did you sleep last night?
The man had been seeing him for about half an hour, but the guy in the store was still going his own way, unmoved, and said slightly angrily: "Why don't you go quickly?" Afraid that I don't have any money? ”
When the guy in the store saw the man in white so serious, he knew that this brother was really ordering, not joking.
In line with the principle that a businessman must make money if he has money, he said to the man in white: "This guest officer, our chef has not come yet, you wait a while, I will call you?" ”
After listening to the words of the guy in the store, the man in white turned red, and he didn't know whether he was angry or anxious.
He was displeased: "Go!" I'm hungry, and someone will settle accounts with you. ”
The guy in the store retreated with an aggrieved face.
He muttered quietly, "I've been hungry for days, and no one has come to settle accounts with me." Are you hungry, mainly because you have no money, what are you angry at me, and what does it have to do with me? ”
The man in white saw that the guy in the store was finally busy, so he stood up and sorted out the white and gray clothes he had been wearing for the past three days, and regretted this in his heart: "The first time I wore white clothes, I didn't know that they got dirty so quickly, if I had known earlier, I would have worn the previous clothes first, and when I saw Han Cheng coming, it would be too late to change my clothes and go out." ”
The man in white walked out of the door of the "Taibai Restaurant" and walked straight towards the group of people who had just entered the East City Gate.
When he was still ten steps away from the young man in the middle, the man in white was held up by two big men with a tiger's back, and one of them asked angrily, "How did you walk?" Don't you see my son-in-law? I also deliberately bumped into it, did I want to find trouble? ”
The man in white smiled, and said lightly: "I don't dare to look for trouble, but I can solve a lot of things this time." ”
The young man in the middle frowned, it was Han Cheng.
It turned out that a few years ago, when Li Dao was still serving as a lieutenant under Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu, he was sent to Zhongmu County to fight Zhu Jun.
After defeating Zhu Jun, Li Dao led the Xiliang army to plunder Yingchuan County and other places.
Yingchuan County has a large number of talents, and many of them are officials in the imperial court.
In order to protect his hometown of Yingchuan County from such military disasters, he sent elite soldiers from all over the country, and accumulated a large number of them, forming a new military force in Yingchuan County.
Yangzhai County, as the county governor, is the top priority of Yingchuan County, and of course it will be guarded by the most elite soldiers.
The Fenwu army wanted to go north, but it had to pass Yangzhai County, but without the consent of the Taishou of Yingchuan County, it was impossible to get through Yangzhai County, unless it was forced.
With 7,000 troops, against a county and on someone else's territory.
The time, the location, the people are on the opposite side, and you can't break through until you have to.
Therefore, Han Cheng asked the army to stay fifty miles north of Yangzhai County, and then personally led more than a dozen personal soldiers into the city to find out the news.
Let's see if there is any way to get through Yingchuan County without alarming the Taishou of Yingchuan County.
After all, people with a little heart know the importance of Emperor Han Xian in Han Cheng's hands.
Han Cheng couldn't guarantee that Yingchuan County Taishou didn't have such thoughts.
Therefore, Han Cheng frowned, but he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the city gate, he met such a wonderful person, and he actually claimed to be able to solve his own problems.
After listening to his words, Han Cheng saluted him and said, "It's really a nap and someone sent a pillow." I don't know this gentleman, do you know what my current predicament is? ”
The man in white smiled slightly, and said in his heart: "It seems that this is the first exam question." However, this question is too simple. ”
said calmly: "This son wants to go north, but now he is in a dilemma. He wanted to go into the city to find Taishou to let him go, but he was afraid that Taishou would covet the treasure in his hand. ”
When Han Cheng heard this, he was such a powerful gentleman, and he penetrated into the analysis of his own situation.
Han Cheng immediately bowed deeply to the man in white and said, "The stakes are very high, please teach me how to do it." ”
The man in white said lightly: "This matter is simple, and it can be broken at will. But it's almost noon, so why don't we go to the 'Taibai Restaurant' and talk while drinking." ”
When Han Cheng heard the promise of the man in white, he said energetically, "I listen to Mr. ”
When he arrived at the Taibai Restaurant, the man in white asked the guy in the store, "Is the meal ready?" ”
The guy in the store saw that the man in white had brought more than 20 big men, and said in his heart: "The big deal is coming." ”
said to the man in white: "Don't worry, the guest officer, it's all ready." ”
The man in white made a gesture of invitation to Han Cheng and said, "Please." After Han Cheng was polite to him, he went up to the second floor with him.
As soon as he sat down, the man in white devoured it, and the food on the table was wiped out like a whirlwind.
The problem was not solved, and Han Cheng's heart was full of worries, so he could only wait quietly while watching the man in white eat.
Judging from the appearance of the man in white, he must be a man of temperament.
When the man in white finished eating, Han Cheng asked, "How is the gentleman eating, do you want to have another one?" ”
The man in white was happy in his heart, this lord is good.
Careful, well-managed, and with a good attitude.
Then he said, "Can you give the bill?" I can eat one serving. ”
Han Cheng: "......"
Immediately called the guy in the store, took out a tael of gold, and said, "This is the money for the meal just now, and the rest, according to the standard just now, two more portions." ”
The guy in the shop saw the gold, his eyebrows were smiling, and his little eyes were squeezed together.
said to Han Cheng: "Please wait a minute, officer." ”
The man in white said to Han Cheng, "You don't have to order so much, I can only eat one serving." ”
The corners of Han Cheng's mouth twitched, and he said, "I ordered it for myself, I haven't eaten, I'm hungry." ”
The man in white said, "That's it, then you're welcome." ”
Han Cheng exclaimed in his heart: "Have you been polite? ”
