Lang Lang's clear sky, the breeze blows slowly, the chrysanthemum garden is fragrant, the so-called "the moon of the autumn season, Ju has Huanghua", "the fall of the morning drink magnolia, the fall of the autumn chrysanthemum at the evening meal". What is described in his elegant sentence is this natural wonder.

As far as the eye can see, there are big yellow chrysanthemums all over the ground, and the potter's heart can't help but sigh very much.

The first time I burned incense and kowtowed to someone else...... It's going to be carried out in these big yellow chrysanthemums.

I don't know if it's my luck or misfortune.

Pei Qian and other soldiers of the Tiger Guard arranged arrangements for the potters and the other three during the scene, burned incense and placed the stove, placed tributes, prepared three animals, and set up a table.

Xu Chu and Guo Jia looked at each other with their shoulders on the side, and the gaze in their eyes was complicated and inexplicable.

The eyes of the two were not jealous at all, but a little ...... Sympathy.

The potter beckoned to the two of them and said, "Otherwise, it will be counted as a share of the two of you?" ”

Xu Chu and Guo Jia glanced at each other.

Then I saw Xu Chu smile weakly and shook his head vigorously.

Guo Jia also cleared his throat and said, "Guo is a literati, and he is not interested in worshipping...... Go on! Ignore us. ”

To tell the truth, in the hearts of both of them, it may not be a good thing to be a sworn brother of a potter.

Zhao Yun and Tai Shici, it was because they didn't see their true colors clearly, so they fell into the Tao surnamed Tao.

Xu Chu and Guo Jia are different, they know the potters too well.

Worship with him, nominally a brother, and it is estimated that in the end it will be similar to calling his son.

When he was young, after everything was ready, he saw the potter, Tai Shici, and Zhao Yun kneeling at the same time, kneeling to the sky, knocking on the ground, and chanting the oath of not seeking to be born in the same year, month, and day, etc., under the observation and witness of everyone, they formed three brothers with different surnames.

Tai Shi Ci is twenty-eight years old, the eldest, the eldest brother.

Zhao Yunnian is twenty-five years old, followed by the second brother.

The potter is twenty-one years old and the third brother.

After drinking, the rites are completed.

The three brothers of Chrysanthemum, in the early peace period, officially appeared in the land of the Han Dynasty.

……

Puyang City, Jia Xu's mansion.

The report from the front line has been sent back to Puyang, and what happened in Fan County was naturally brought back to Jia Xu by the eagle soldiers of the Eagle Snake Mansion.

After learning about the potter's official sale, Jia Xu was a little stupid for the first time in his life.

That's not right!

What is this situation?

Originally, he drew a path for Liu Xie, the son of heaven, and asked him to canonize the potters as generals, so that the potters would become the main targets targeted by Yuan Shao in the future, so as to use Yuan Shao to retaliate against the potters.

But as a result, the potter not only did not become the general, but also sold the position of the general to Yuan Shao.

I heard that the princes bought the official positions from the potters and helped him raise money to build a palace for the Son of Heaven in Fan County and rebuild the imperial court...... In this way, how could he have been appreciated by the Son of Heaven?

After hearing about this, Jia Xu suddenly panicked.

Things have developed to this point, which is really unexpected by the old poison.

And if Jia Xu didn't think about it, the potter must have known that the person who offered advice to the Son of Heaven was himself.

No matter which channel the pottery will know about itself, there is no doubt that his secret identity as a wise man must have been discovered by this kid.

Jia Xu's heart couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved.

After living for fifty years, I never imagined that my poisonous plan would be cracked by others!

And the person who cracked his plan is not as old as his own son.

This is really a great shame for Jia Xu.

And if the surnamed Tao really learned about his ability from the Son of Heaven, it would be really detrimental to his future safety.

Jia Xu is a person who does not want to be in the limelight, he likes to hide behind the scenes and manipulate everything, so as not to let others see through his true body...... To put it bluntly, such a person may also have something wrong mentally.

But in this way, knowing that Jia Xu is a potter who is a wise man in the world, in the heart of the old poison, he has become a character who must be killed.

This son is young, he has such a means, he can dissolve his poisonous plan lightly, and when he matures in the future, will he still have it?

Thinking of this, Jia Xu made a little plan in his heart, and had a plan, and then put pen to paper, preparing to offer revenge to Cao Cao.

……

After the affairs of Fan County were settled, the soldiers and horses of the princes began to slowly withdraw towards their territories, and the envoys of the princes had already set off and returned to their lords.

The Son of Heaven sold a total of more than 30 officials this time and obtained a large amount of money, enough for the Son of Heaven to build a palace and establish a dynasty in Fan County, but there were not enough men in the hands of the Son of Heaven, so he asked the Taifu potters for help.

Helping the Son of Heaven to build a palace is also a major matter related to the face of the world, and Tao Shang agreed to Liu Xie without hesitation, saying that after he returned to Xuzhou, he would naturally recruit people to come to Fan County to help Liu Xie build a palace.

Facing the unshirkable potter, Liu Xie's heart was once again full of gratitude.

Mrs. Tao, what a particular person.

Tao Qian's Xuzhou army had already withdrawn first, but Tao Shang's Jinling army did not act in a hurry.

He also had to wait and see for a while, lest any of the princes really be shameless, go and return, and kidnap the Son of Heaven regardless of the interests of the other princes.

Although the probability of this kind of thing is extremely low, and it may even end up being killed by the rest of the princes, the potter thinks it is better to be careful.

While the potter's Jinling army was standing and watching, a messenger from Cao's army came to the potter's army and delivered Cao Cao's letter.

As soon as he saw that it was Cao Cao's letter, the potter's heart immediately rose to his throat, and he was a little more careful subconsciously.

I read the contents of Cao Cao's letters...... It turned out that Cao Cao wanted to make peace with the potters, and asked the potters to release his clan generals Xiahou Yuan and Xiahouen.

Although the contents of Cao Cao's letters were written very sincerely, the potters did not believe him in their hearts.

According to his understanding of Cao Cao, it is impossible for Cao Cao to simply ransom Xiahou Yuan and the others back, even if Xiahou Yuan is his clan general.

He must have been plotting something, taking the opportunity to kill himself.

"Cao Sikong said, if Taifu is willing to release the two generals in our army, no matter what the conditions are, Sikong is willing to agree." The envoy saw that the potter had finished reading Cao Cao's letter, and then added.

The Tao merchant pondered for a moment, and then said to the envoy: "The death of Mrs. Cao in Xuzhou was really an accident, and it had nothing to do with my father and son...... I don't want to get too stiff with Cao Sikong, since Cao Sikong wants to go back to these two Xiahou generals, then Tao promised Sikong. ”

The envoy couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "I don't know what conditions Taifu wants in exchange?" Cao Sikong said that as long as it is his ability, he can do it. ”

The potter couldn't see any flaws in the envoy's face, and he estimated that Cao Cao might have deceived the envoy.

This person may indeed have been ordered to negotiate with him on the terms of exchanging Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou En, and he didn't know what Cao Cao was doing behind his back.

The potter pondered carefully for a while, and suddenly said: "I heard that in Cao Sikong's stable, there are two good horses in the world, one is called Jueying, and the other is called Claw Huang Feidian, Tao's biggest advantage is that he is more practical and not greedy, if Cao Sikong is willing, he might as well exchange these two good horses with Tao." ”

The envoy was stunned when he heard this.

I thought that the Tao Chamber of Commerce would take the opportunity to make some unbelievable request, but I didn't expect that he would open his mouth to ask for two horses?

Isn't that just a joke?

The envoy looked at the smiling potter in a daze, and said, "Taifu, can you really think clearly?" ”

Tao Shang nodded lightly and said, "I think very clearly, you go back and tell Cao Sikong that Tao only needs these two things, and there is nothing else to ask for." ”

……

The messenger returned to Cao Ying, and immediately reported to Cao Cao.

After listening to the messenger's report, Cao Cao asked him to go down first, and then discussed with Cheng Yu: "Zhongde, in your opinion, the person surnamed Tao saw Cao's intentions?" ”

Cheng Yu thought for a while before he said: "If the potter is trading gold and silver or the city in exchange, maybe he has already seen some flaws, but with two war horses...... Sikong, I heard that when the pottery merchant was fighting with Lu Bu in Shouyang Mountain, he spared Lu Bu's life for the sake of the red rabbit horse, this kid seems to be quite affectionate to the world's good horses, so it seems that the current thing is really not fake. ”

Cao Cao said coldly when he heard this: "Okay, since that's the case, then what if Cao Mou gives him the Absolute Shadow and Claw Huang Feidian?" Let's exchange the wonderful talent back first...... How's Cao Ren's preparations? ”

Cheng Yu arched his hand at Cao Cao and said: "The generals of all the departments are already ready, just wait for the lord to give an order, and the Jinling army will launch a thunderous blow on the way to the Taomer's evacuation of Fan County." ”

"Very good."

Cao Cao clenched his fists vigorously and said in a low voice: "The little thief of the Tao family, Cao Mou lost the Son of Heaven, Cao Mou can't swallow this breath no matter what, and he has to take the opportunity to exchange prisoners to let you know the strength of Cao's troops." ”

……

On the north bank of the Yellow River, Yuan Shao Dazhai.

After Yuan Shao returned his soldiers and horses to Fan County, he suddenly stopped moving.

He summoned Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Xu You, Xiao Ji, and Guo Tu overnight.

"Ming Gong, why did you stop your troops as soon as you crossed the north shore and didn't return to Yecheng?" Tian Feng has the most straightforward personality and asked Yuan Shao questions first.

Yuan Shao's face was gloomy, and he said slowly: "Yuan wanted to return to the army, but suddenly figured out one thing. ”

Xiao Ji looked at him strangely: "What did Ming Gong figure out?" ”

"Cao Apu!" Yuan Shao said word by word: "Yuan has been thinking a lot about the Son of Heaven recently establishing a dynasty in Fan County, and he almost forgot a major event...... It is Cao Apu, with Yuan's understanding of him, the surname Cao will definitely not give up, I expect that as soon as everyone withdraws, Cao Apu will inevitably raise troops to attack the pottery merchant and take revenge for the robbery of the Son of Heaven! ”

Hearing this, he touched his beard and pondered for a long time: "We are not familiar with Cao Cao...... Is this true? ”

Yuan Shao smiled and said, "I've known him for more than 20 years, how can I still not know him?" It's like Cao Cao understands Yuan! ”

At this time, Xu You stood up and spoke: "Ming Gong, don't you want to make a profit?" Take this opportunity to eradicate Cao, Tao? ”
