Taste the crab with cold eyes, and see how long you are rampant. -----Bright. Anonymous "Jingshi People for Yan Songyu"

It is said that Chen Long and others visited the magnificent scenery of Huashan all the way, and they were very tired, and when they stayed in Chang'an Tongwen Inn, dinner was in the inn, arranged by the boss Zhong Yu. I wanted to understand the customs of Chang'an and chatted with Boss Zhong, but I saw that Zhong Yu's eyebrows were melancholy.

Chen Long was originally a warm-hearted person, hesitated for a moment, and still asked Boss Zhong what was on his mind. Boss Zhong sighed and said: "My name is Zhong Yu, this Yingchuan people, and my nephew Zhong Yu have been here for many years, and they have accumulated a little and opened this inn for a living. My nephew has always been loyal, talented and learned, summoned by the imperial court, and is now engaged in Yongzhou. Unexpectedly, I offended my boss for some reason, and I was arrested and imprisoned in the government a few days ago. I have been working for a few days, but I can't enter the door, so I am worried. ”

When Long Chen heard the name Zhong Xuan, he seemed to be very familiar, and the light brain in his brain had already begun to investigate. Guo Jiayan said: "Yingchuan Zhong Xuan? But what is the Zhong Yuanchang who is good at seal, li, true, line, grass and other calligraphy? ”

Boss Zhong nodded hurriedly and replied, "Exactly!" Little brother knows Yuan Chang? Dare to ask the little brother his name? ”

At this time, Chen Longguang also called up Zhong Xuan's resume in his mind, this person turned out to be Cao Cao's important minister, widely strategic, more good at internal affairs, once served as a former military division, although not as good as Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and other famous names, but also Cao Wei Xiangguo, and finally with the famous ministers Hua Xin, Wang Lang and to the third duke, especially good at calligraphy, known as the "originator of regular script" in history, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty Wang Xizhi is equally famous, and called "Zhong Wang".

The more Chen Longzheng investigated, the more interested he became, and he only heard Guo Jiadao: "The name of Yuan Chang, I heard the elders mention it when I was very young, and they all said that it was the master of calligraphy in the world. My surname is Guo Mingjia, the word Fengxiao, after the Guo family in Yingchuan. ”

Boss Zhong said in awe: "It turned out to be a descendant of the Yingchuan Guo family, and it was disrespectful and disrespectful. Then these people are not ordinary people, are they? As he spoke, he stretched his brows and looked at everyone with a smile.

After some investigation, Long Chen already had a full impression of Zhong Xuan, and gradually had the intention of coming to the rescue. In addition, Emperor Han Ling has become an idiot, and the government is controlled by Empress He, and Chun Yuqiong is far away in Luoyang, and Empress He will not let him have any follow-up pursuit and killing actions. He no longer concealed his identity, and said with a smile: "I can't hide it, we are all court officials, and we were ordered to secretly inspect the front-line soldiers who fought against Han Sui and Bianzhang rebellions. My surname is Chen Minglong, the word Wenlong, is the general of the rebellion in the dynasty, and the south is also waiting. ”

Boss Zhong was overjoyed when he heard this, stood up and bowed deeply: "Disrespectful, disrespectful!" But General Wenlong, who exterminated the Yellow Turban Zhang Jiao in half a month? ”

Chen Long laughed and said, "Exactly! As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to help Zhong Yu.

Zhong Yu refused to get up, and said with tears: "My nephew is in prison, although I try everything, I can't think about it. I see the general as a righteous man, please save my nephew! ”

Chen Long groaned in his heart, frowned slightly, and said, "Boss Zhong, if you don't get up, how can we discuss the matter of saving Yuan Chang?" ”

Zhong Yu was overjoyed and said, "The general agreed?" The general is a member of the court, and there must be a way, and I am willing to give as much money as I want. ”

Zhou Budo asked on the side: "Boss Zhong, whether we can think of a way or not, we must always ask things first." What crime did the nephew commit? ”

Zhong Yu got up and looked up and asked, "What do you call this little brother?" ”

Chen Long said: "He is Zhou Yuanzhi. Don't look at his young age, but he is resourceful. Tell me about the cause and effect. Who is Mototsune's boss? ”

Boss Zhong finally sat down, thought about where to start, and said slowly: "After Chen Yi, the former assassin of Yongzhou, was killed by the rebels, it was Li Dao and Li Zhiran who acted for Yongzhou. ”

In Chen Long's heart, a monstrous wave surged, but he didn't expect that after Dong Zhuo's death, the great warlord Li Dao, who caused trouble in Chang'an, appeared at this moment. blurted out: "Li Dao, Guo Yan? ”

Boss Zhong felt slightly strange, and hurriedly said: "General Chen knows Li Dao and Guo Yan? ”

Guo Jia, Zhou Budo, Zhang Ning and others have long been familiar with Chen Long's geographical figures. Chen Long hurriedly said: "You said that Zhong Xuan offended Li Dao? ”

Boss Zhong nodded slightly: "Exactly." Li Dao turned out to be Dong Zhuo's subordinate, because Dong Zhuo was recruited by the imperial court to Hebei to exterminate the main force of the Yellow Turban Zhang Jiao, so Li Dao was asked to guard the Chang'an border. ”

Chen Long nodded slightly, thinking that Dong Zhuo was cruel and unkind, and Li Dao was no better, no wonder Zhong Zhuo could not be tolerated. Boss Zhong continued: "Yuan Chang has always been dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo, and he can't get used to seeing him flying and domineering. Since Dong Zhuo left, Li Dao led the troops to camp in the periphery of Chang'an, and the military discipline was chaotic, harming the people and disturbing the people, and Chang'an officials often discussed among them. Since Li Wei led the Yongzhou assassination history, he has become even more unscrupulous, and all officials who raised objections have been retaliated against. The day before yesterday, Yuan Chang privately talked to someone about Li Dao's army disturbing the people, and his language was disrespectful, but he was unexpectedly reported, and he was arrested and imprisoned by Li Dao's people at that time, and he was not asked about the crime. ”

Chen Long said: "I see. Boss Zhong, tell me how the troops of Chang'an are, which generals are leading, I have a good idea, and then see who can save your nephew. ”

Boss Zhong said: "Dong Zhuo has four generals under him, namely Li Dao, Li Zhiran, Guo Yan, Guo Duozhi, Zhang Ji, Zhang Zuli, Fan Chou, and Fan Jincheng. Each brought 10,000 Xiliang iron cavalry to defend Chang'an, all of which were capable of conquest and habitual warfare, among which Li Wei's Flying Bear Army was the most well-known. Chang'an is too guarded by Shao, leading 10,000 troops to defend the city, and is responsible for the security of Chang'an City. ”

Chen Long nodded slightly, these four generals were the culprits who later troubled Chang'an and robbed Emperor Han Xian and all the ministers, it turned out that the current Chang'an was actually their world. A few days later, Dong Zhuo's army came, I am afraid that it will be another storm, Dong Zhuo got the help of the four generals, and when He Jin listened to Yuan Shao's instigation, he summoned all kinds of troops and horses into Beijing, and finally smashed Luoyang, causing Dong Zhuo's rebellion in Luoyang, which was burned alive in the ancient capital of Luoyang.

Zhou Budo suddenly asked, "Who is the one who reported Ling's nephew?" ”

Boss Zhong sighed: "Speaking of this person, it's very hateful. This person is rich and resourceful, but he has a gloomy personality, and he has always been a friend of him, but he didn't expect to be secretly reported by him. This person's surname is Jia Mingxu Zi Wenhe, a native of Guzang, Liangzhou, who was originally Dong Zhuo's general, and is now also engaged in Yongzhou. ”

Zhou Budo, Guo Jia and the others were not very surprised, Chen Long suddenly stood up and said, "Jia Xu Jia Wenhe? I didn't think he was here! ”

Boss Zhong was surprised, he was scared in his heart, and said tremblingly: "Jia Zhi is just a little general in Yongliang, does General Chen also know ....... Jia Zhan?" Where you have sinned, forgive your sins. ”

Chen Long hurriedly sat down and said, "Boss Zhong, you misunderstood, I just heard that this person is resourceful, some people have always called him a 'poisoner', and your nephew can be regarded as careless in making friends." ”

Zhong Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's fine." Na Jia Xu is indeed a poisoner, his position was originally under Yuan Chang, but with this report, he became a celebrity under Li Dao. ”

Chen Long naturally knew how powerful Jia Xu was, and he wanted to face such a figure whose wisdom was no less than that of Zhuge Kongming and Sima Zhongda, and he must be careful every step of the way. asked again about the location of Zhong Xuan's detention, and Boss Zhong answered them one by one.

After dinner, Long Chen said to Zhong Yu: "This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, and I will wait until I go back to the room to study a plan to rescue Yuan Chang, and we will meet tomorrow morning." Zhong Yu hurriedly sent everyone back to the room.

Chen Long ordered Lu Chang to inspect the door outside, sit with several conspirators, and discuss in the bedroom. Guo Jiadao: "The lord seems to be very jealous of Jia Xu, but why? I've never heard of this person. ”

Chen Long said nonsense: "I am very jealous of Dong Zhuo, so I have checked his information in detail. Jia Xu is Dong Zhuo's think tank, Dong Zhuo can be ordered to crusade against the Yellow Turban, it is this person's strategy, just like Feng Xiao asked me to take the throne to pick the fruits of victory over the Yellow Turban. Do you say that Jia Xu's intelligence is similar to yours? And he is spicy and vicious, I am afraid that his conspiracy is not under the conspiracy of Fengxiao. ”

Everyone who said a few words was silent, and Chen Long continued: "However, I think there is still a chance to rescue Zhong Xuan. ”

Zhang Ning knew Chen Long's character best, and knew that he would rise to the occasion in the face of difficulties, so he smiled and said: "Among the generals Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji, each of them commands heavy troops, and they are stationed in one place, and they are loose in military discipline, so I am afraid that there is not harmony between them." Husband thinks, can there be a gap to be found? ”

Chen Long smiled: "I knew that Mei Niang was resourceful. I'm trying to take advantage of the contradictions between them. It's just that it's easy for me to save Zhong Xuan's life, but it's difficult for him to continue to stay here as an official. ”

Zhou Budo was puzzled: "Does the lord want Zhong Xuan to become our spy in Chang'an?" ”

Long Chen smiled and said, "That's exactly what I mean." According to Xun You's plan, I will inevitably come to Chang'an in the future to lead the army of pacifying Han Sui and Bian Zhang, Dong Zhuo's old general, who will listen to me? I want Zhong Xuan to continue to be an official, and secretly help me sweep away all these turtles and crabs that are rampant in the west. ”

Zhou Budo and Guo Jia both thought deeply, and Chen Long suddenly smiled and said: "I expect Dong Zhuo to come west soon, and there must be four old generals and a think tank who wrote to him first, why don't we take it and take a look first, and then make a decision?" ”

Zhou Budo and Guo Jia's eyes lit up, and Guo Jia smiled: "If you can catch some tricks from Li Dao, why worry if he is not obedient?" ”
