However, since Yuan Shu asked, Yuan Shu couldn't keep saving his face like before, so Yuan Shu put on a disdainful expression and said, "Take it and see it yourself!" ”

As he spoke, he threw Cao Cao's letter to the ground.

Yuan Jian was not angry at all at all at such an impudent behavior as Yuan Shu, all he cared about now was what Cao Cao said?

So when Yuan Shu threw the letter out, Yuan Shu immediately stepped forward, picked up Cao Cao's letter, and read it carefully.

Everyone looked at Yuan Lian curiously, wondering what was written on it, even Yuan Shu, although he pretended to be very disdainful on the surface, but when Yuan Lian read Cao Cao's letter, he couldn't help but sneak a glance at Yan Xiang, wanting to see how this Yuan Lian reacted.

I saw that after Yuan Jian read the letter, he did not react immediately, but fell into deep thought.

Ji Ling, who was on the side, looked impatient, strode forward, snatched the letter from Yuan Lian's hand, and said loudly: "What are you in a daze?" No wonder the lord looks down on you, and loves to be in the limelight, and after reading the letter, he can't say why, if you don't have that ability, don't be a good man? ”

This Ji Ling is a general under Yuan Shu, if Yang Hong is the most popular among the strategists, then Ji Ling is Yuan Shu's favorite general among the generals.

Seeing Ji Ling say that, a group of generals laughed along, these people are like this, they don't know much, but they like to see people's jokes, they don't want to think about it, why is Yuan Jian so thoughtful after reading the letter?

Ji Ling picked up the letter and glanced at it, everyone saw that he grabbed the letter, and thought that he would take it, but he didn't expect Ji Ling to take a look at the letter, and then stupidly took it to Yang Hong on the side, and said: "Yang Changshi, you still do it for you, read it to everyone!" ”

It turned out that this Ji Ling didn't know how to learn and didn't even know how to write, so after he glanced at Cao Cao's letter, he had to show it to Yang Hong.

Yang Hong is a good person, not only knows how to please the lord, but also knows how to understand the world, although this Ji Ling is illiterate, but he is the favorite general by Yuan Shu's side, how dare he laugh at Ji Ling?

I saw Yang Hong smile and said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, it's just a gesture, then I'll read the letter to everyone on behalf of the lord."

”

As he spoke, he glanced at Yuan Shu to ask for his opinion.

I saw Yuan Shu nodding slightly, indicating that it was okay, Yang Hong saw this, so he read while watching: "My friend highway, Luoyang farewell, in a hurry for several years, I have not forgotten it, I have heard that the highway is crisscrossing Huainan, and I have heard that the highway is chivalrous and courageous, and the evil is like hatred, and I am good at managing the injustice of the world, which is beyond the reach of my brother." Today, Xuzhou Mu Tao Gongzu old thief, human face and beast heart, my family passed through Xuzhou, the old thief saw the wealth, killed my parents, and Cao did not share the sky! The book is not exhaustive, Meng Gong will not give up, and Cao will meet Xuzhou together, kill the old thief together, and divide the land of Xuzhou equally! ”

After Yang Hong finished reading the letter, he respectfully handed it back to Yuan Shu.

Different from the previous way of throwing the letter on the ground in order to be majestic, this time Yuan Shu silently took the letter back, because Cao Cao praised him in the letter, and he was really beautiful in front of his subordinates.

After Yang Hong finished reading the letter, he bowed down and retreated, it seemed that he didn't want to express his opinions casually.

Yuan Shu asked everyone: "Cao Mengde invited me to attack Xuzhou together and divide the land of Xuzhou equally, I don't know what you think?" ”

Ji Ling first said loudly: "Where the lord wants me Ji Ling to fight, Ji Ling will attack the lord wherever he wants, go to the soup and fight the fire, and he will not give up!" ”

Although Ji Ling has no culture, he has served under Yuan Shu for a long time, and he also knows his personality of great joy, and likes to be praised and patted the most, this Ji Ling is far from having the eloquence and knowledge of Yang Hong, so he naturally can't say anything good, but if he wants to please Yuan Shu, he will still say something, just like showing loyalty and courage in front of him, which is a good way.

Yuan Shu really laughed and said, "General Ji Ling is really loyal, and he is the number one fierce general of my Yuan Highway!" ”

After seeing Ji Ling being praised, the other generals were not to be outdone, and volunteered one after another, asking for help in front of Yuan Shu and leading the troops to battle.

And at this time, Yuan Jian finally spoke.

I saw him walk up to Yuan Shu and say, "Lord, Yuan Shu has something to say." ”

Seeing Yuan Shu coming, Yuan Shu said with a disgusted face: "Why are you again."

What do you want to say this time? ”

Hearing Yuan Shu's ridicule, Yuan Jian didn't mind, but said seriously: "Returning to the lord, I think that attacking Yanzhou now is the best choice." ”

After listening to Yuan Shu's words, Yuan Shu tilted his head, touched the thin short beard on his chin, and looked at the sky, with an extremely arrogant attitude.

Seeing that Yuan Shu ignored him, Yuan Jian continued to explain: "This time Cao Cao sent a letter to the lord, he must have worried that our army would take the opportunity to sneak attack Yanzhou, although the Cao army has hundreds of thousands of troops in Xuzhou, but if our army moves quickly enough, it can occupy the entire Yanzhou before the Cao army retreats back to Yanzhou, leaving the Cao army homeless." ”

Before Yuan Jian finished speaking, he heard Ji Ling on the side sneer and said, "Hehe, I thought that the famous Lord Yan would say something shocking, is it just this extent?" ”

At this time, Yuan Shu's general Zhang Xun also smiled: "Isn't it, what's the difference between this and what we think?" It seems that I, Zhang Xun, can also be the master bookkeeper! ”

After Zhang Xun finished speaking, the group of people burst out laughing.

This time, even Yuan Lian, who has always been calm, also felt embarrassed, he tried his best to give advice to Yuan Shu, not for benefits, not for fame, but to fulfill the responsibilities of a courtier, for this reason, he was ridiculed and ridiculed by his colleagues countless times, but he never took these things to heart, and still tried his best to plan for his lord.

But what made him the most sad was not the exclusion and ridicule of his colleagues, but that Yuan Shu, as the lord, even looked down on him and took the lead in humiliating him.

As a talented strategist, he is so big in the world, where can't he get ahead? But because he knew how to repay his kindness, he swore to Yuan Feng, the engong, and swore that he would do his best to assist the new lord.

But it's a pity that this pampered son doesn't have one percent of his father's strength and talent at all, even if he works hard to assist Yuan Shu, in the end he is still not treated by him, on the contrary, he is not as good as some people who can only pat on the back can be reused, and even some charlatans who pretend to be ghosts are more important than him.
