Chapter 232: The General's Banquet (Part II)
The book is picked up again.
He Jin opened his mouth and said, "Hussar General, what do you think of the Northern Army?" ”
Li Zhi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he understood what He Jin meant, and his heart was churning.
He didn't expect He Jin's hand to be able to reach into the Northern Army.
You must know that the Northern Army is the army that guards the safety of the Beijing Division, and it is also the army that Liu Hong values the most.
Countless pairs of eyes were staring at the Northern Army, but no one dared to interfere with the Northern Army, for fear of angering Liu Hong.
Even those big families are just sneaking two people into it to make an eyeliner.
He Jin dared to openly and openly install his own forces in the Northern Army, wasn't he afraid that Liu Hong would blame him?
Looking at Li Zhi's shocked expression, He Jin knew that he had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "It's just a battalion, not all the Northern Army." ”
"Huh......" Li Zhi let out a long sigh of relief, he was startled just now, and thought that the power of He Jin had swelled to such a point.
If it's just a battalion, then it's nothing, after all, the Yuan family also planted a shadow in the northern army and controlled a battalion of soldiers and horses.
Not only the Yuan family, but also Li Zhi, the brother Guan Yu, is a captain in the Northern Army, everyone is the same, and there is nothing.
But thinking about it this way, Li Zhidu felt sad for Liu Hong, the military power he had grabbed was slowly divided by the ministers in Beijing little by little, and Liu Hong didn't know anything.
He Jin was stunned again when he saw Li Zhi, and asked impatiently, "What does the hussar general think of the Northern Army's horses?" ”
Li Zhi was awakened by He Jin, and when he saw his anxious appearance, he thought to himself: "It seems that this He Jin was forced by the family to be in a hurry, otherwise he would not have invested such a large amount of money to win me over." ”
Thinking of this, Li Zhi said to He Jin: "The soldiers and horses of the Northern Army are very majestic, and Benhou admires them. ”
When He Jin heard this, he gritted his teeth and said with a face full of regret: "General Ben heard that there is a lack of a leading lieutenant in the Northern Army, I don't know if the hussar general can be recommended?" ”
When Li Zhi heard this, he smiled, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "Benhou has a brother whose surname is Xu Ming, and during the Battle of the Yellow Turban, he made great contributions.
But because there was something to arrange for him, his reward was delayed.
Now that there are vacant positions in the Northern Army, why don't you arrange my brother in the Northern Army, what does the general think? ”
Hearing this, He Jin closed his eyes and said with a painful face: "But! ”
"Hahaha..."When Li Zhi heard this, he laughed, raised the wine cup and saluted He Jin: "The general is happy, Ben Hou borrows the general's wine to toast the general, please." ”
Hearing this, He Jin opened his eyes, looked at Li Zhi for a while, nodded expressionlessly, and then raised the wine cup to Li Zhi and responded: "Please"
After speaking, He Jin drank all the wine in the cup.
After Li Zhi finished drinking, He Jin asked impatiently: "Can the hussar general agree to the matter of the family?" ”
Hearing this, Li Zhi nodded, and said nonchalantly: "Ben Hou and the family are not on good terms, but now that there is a chance, Ben Hou will naturally not let it go, I don't know what arrangements the general has?" ”
After speaking, Li Zhi looked around, and then looked at He Jin with a smile that seemed to be not a smile.
After hearing Li Zhi's words, He Jin's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said what he had already prepared: "General Ben wants to ...... with those people."
Speaking of this, He Jin felt that someone was pulling his sleeve.
He Jin knew that it was his staff again, turned his head, and looked back impatiently and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”
The staff didn't care about He Jin's attitude, he gestured around with his eyes, and whispered to He Jin: "The general is cautious, and the villain is too talkative." ”
He Jin was stunned when he heard this, he was not a fool, he knew that there were many people, and dealing with it was a matter of the family, so he really couldn't say it in public.
Thinking of this, He Jin suddenly thought of another thing, and hurriedly asked this staff: "Presumably that Li Zhi also knows this truth."
Then why did he dare to agree to General Ben to deal with the family in public? ”
When the staff member heard this, he smiled bitterly: "The reason why the hussar general did this is just to wait for the price to sell." ”
"Sell at a price?" He Jin asked inexplicably: "What do you mean, you quickly explain it to me!" ”
The staff glanced at Li Zhi and said with admiration: "The hussar general knows that today's conversation with the general will definitely reach the ears of the family.
At that time, the family had three options, the first was to deal with both the Great General and the Hussar General.
The second is to win over the hussar general, or let the hussar general choose neutrality.
The third is to concentrate your strength and deal with the hussar generals who seem to be easier to deal with."
Speaking of this, the staff member looked at He Jin and asked with a bitter face: "If the general is a member of the family, how will he choose?" ”
When He Jin heard this, he thought for a while and replied, "General Ben naturally has to go first
Deal with Li Zhi, after all, persimmons pick up soft pinching. ”
After hearing He Jin's choice, the staff shook their heads: "The hussar general is not a soft persimmon, maybe it used to be, but since he exposed that secret method, few people dared to provoke the hussar general.
After all, if he really provoked his murderous intentions, even if the hussar general slaughtered a family, with the hussar general's exploits, it would only be a dismissal from the official. ”
Speaking of this, the staff member sighed: "Now the hussar general only has the power of one blow.
But the force of this blow can be heart-wrenching.
Therefore, as long as they are not pressed, no one dares to provoke the hussar general. ”
When He Jin heard this, he said with a displeased face: "In this way, didn't that general give the position of captain of the Northern Military Academy to Li Zhi for nothing?"
And ......"
Speaking of this, He Jin glanced at Li Zhi from the corner of his eye, and cautiously said to his staff: "Since Li Zhi is so difficult to deal with, then our plan ......"
When the staff heard this, they shook their heads: "Give it away for nothing, and the position of a captain is not worth the general's effort."
Did the general forget? I waited for the hussar general to come today, not for the sake of the family, but for the sake of ......."
With that, the staff member quietly pointed upward, then made a motion to wipe his neck, and then said no more.
When He Jin heard this, he slapped his forehead and suddenly said: "How can this general forget the business, as long as it is done, what a good way to do it!" ”
After speaking, He Jin put a bright smile on his face again, patted the staff on the shoulder, and said appreciatively: "Thanks to your reminder, otherwise, General Ben would have gone astray and would not know it." ”
When the staff heard this, they shook their heads, and saluted He respectfully: "The general has praised it falsely, and he is the general's staff below, so he naturally has to plan for the general everywhere, and it is within the general's job to check and fill in the gaps for the general." ”
When He Jin heard this, the smile on his face became even bigger, and after nodding at him, he turned his gaze to Li Zhi.
Seeing that He Jin was so happy, the staff shook their heads in disappointment, and sighed in their hearts: "He Jin is so happy, not the appearance of the master!" Alas! How difficult it is to choose one of the masters! ”
He Jin didn't know that his staff had already made a big cross against him in his heart, and was exchanging cups with Li Zhi.
Li Zhi was also puzzled in his heart at this time, he didn't know why He Jin was suddenly so happy, didn't He Jin and that staff member see his tricks?
After Li Zhi thought about it for a while, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and suddenly he seemed to understand something, and looked at the enthusiastic He Jin thoughtfully.
At this moment, Cao Cao walked over, took the wine cup and saluted Li Zhi, and then whispered to Li Zhi: "Brother Xian, be careful, don't fall for He Jin's plan." ”
Hearing this, Li Zhi nodded silently, and then drank with Cao Cao enthusiastically, as if nothing had happened just now.
When He Jin saw Cao Cao coming, he asked him, "Who are you?" ”
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, looked at He Jin and asked puzzledly: "The general gave an invitation to the lower official, how could he not recognize the lower official?" ”
Li Zhi also looked at He Jin, and saw that his face was full of confusion, knowing that He Jin was afraid that he really didn't know Cao Cao, so he hurriedly introduced him: "This is Cao Cao Cao Mengde, who now lives in Luoyang Ling. ”
"Oh?" When He Jin heard this, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Cao Cao with interest and said: "General Ben has heard of you, you are a big celebrity in Luoyang City, and many gentlemen in the city have been rectified by you, amazing!" Come, General Ben toasts you. ”
As he spoke, He Jin raised the wine glass in his hand and saluted Cao Cao.
Seeing this, Cao Cao pretended to be flattered, hurriedly picked up the wine cup in his hand, and said to He Jin: "How dare you, it's the general who respects the general, the general, please!" ”
After speaking, he drank all the wine in his hand.
Seeing that Cao Cao was so interested, He Jin nodded with satisfaction and drank the wine in his hand.
Afterwards, He Jin asked Li Zhi, "The hussar general and Meng De know each other?" ”
"That's right," Li Zhi nodded: "When Benhou first came to Luoyang, he had a very good relationship with Brother Meng De.
After the Yellow Turban incident, Brother Meng De and Ben Hou strangled the Yellow Turban together, and they were considered comrades.
Brother Meng De was a wise general on the battlefield, and he made great achievements in marching and fighting, which benefited Benhou a lot. ”
When He Jin heard this, his eyes were full of light, and he looked at Cao Cao and said with enthusiasm on his face: "I don't want Meng De to be a talent for commanding troops, come, General Ben will give you another drink." ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he smiled bitterly: "Xingzhixian... The hussar general has raised the rank of the lower officer, and compared with the hussar general, this little bit of the lower officer's way is not worth mentioning. ”
When He Jin heard this, he waved his hand, and said nonchalantly: "This is a mistake, the hussar general is a great talent who is not born in the world, and compared with the hussar general, anyone is a mediocre talent."
Since Meng De can get a word of praise from the hussar general, he must also have something extraordinary, so Meng De should not be humble anymore
。 ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he shook his head and did not refute, except for Li Zhi, he really hadn't served anyone else, so he drank all the wine in his hand, which was regarded as agreeing with He Jin's words.
After Cao Cao finished drinking, Li Zhi looked at the staff behind He Jin, and asked in a harmonious voice: "I don't know the name of Brother Tai, can Ben Hou have the honor to have a drink with Brother Tai?" ”
After hearing this, the staff member glanced at He Jin, and after He Jin nodded, the staff member bowed to Li Zhi and said: "There is a hussar general who has asked, and I have seen the hussar general in Chen Qun Chen Changwen in Xiayingchuan." ”
"Chen Qun?" When Li Zhi heard this, he instantly came to his senses, and asked Chen Qun, "Brother Changwen is a member of the Chen family in Yingchuan?" ”
"Exactly," Chen Qun nodded.
Li Zhi saw that Chen Qun was indeed the person he knew, so he asked, "I don't know if Ling Zun is still healthy?" ”
Chen Qun was stunned when he heard this, looked at Li Zhi and asked in astonishment, "Does the hussar general know his father?" ”
"Hahaha......" Before Li Zhi could answer, Cao Cao laughed: "How did Changwen forget, the hussar general is also from Yingchuan."
Not only that, the hussar general is also the owner of Erxianzhuang, could it be that Changwen, as a person from Yingchuan, has never heard of Erxianzhuang? ”
Chen Qun looked at Li Zhi with a shocked gaze and asked in a lost voice, "Is that really the case?" ”
Li Zhiyan was puzzled when he heard this, and nodded with a puzzled face: "That's true, but no one in Yingchuan shouldn't know about this matter, why did Brother Changwen ......?"
Chen Qun saluted respectfully towards Li Zhigong: "The hussar general is merciful, and I admire it."
In the next perennial study tour, I only came home recently, but I didn't know that Erxian Village was set up by the hussar general, and there was a lot of offense, and I asked the hussar general to forgive me. ”
When Li Zhi heard this, he said with a smile: "It's okay, I didn't think too much about it when Benhou set up Erxian Village, I just wanted to find a place for everyone to settle down, but I didn't want to, and unconsciously, there was such a large scale." ”
Speaking of this, Li Zhi didn't want to mention the matter of Erxianzhuang anymore, so he changed the topic and said, "I don't know why Brother Changwen is a staff member in the general's office?"
With Brother Changwen's background and knowledge, it is more than enough to be a local county official. ”
He Jin was not happy when he heard this, looked at Li Zhi and said, "What are the hussar generals talking about?!"
Why is it bad to be a staff member here in General?
With the power of General Ben, isn't it better to end up as a staff member here than to be a local official who is angry everywhere? ”
Li Zhiyan shook his head when he heard this, and said with a sigh: "It's not that it's bad, but it's inappropriate."
The Chen family's learning teaches how to reassure the people and govern the people, not the way of officialdom.
What Brother Changwen learned was more suitable for being a magistrate rather than a staff member. ”
When Chen Qun heard this, he was even more amazed, looked at Li Zhi and asked in disbelief: "How does the hussar general know about my Chen family's family education?" ”
When Li Zhi heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then he shook his head mysteriously, without saying a word, looking unfathomable.
Li Zhi had already slapped himself hundreds of times in his heart: "Let you talk nonsense!" Let you talk nonsense! Don't you know that today's knowledge is closely monitored?
If you talk such nonsense, don't you tell the Chen family that you have stolen other people's knowledge?! ”
Seeing that Li Zhizhi was silent, Chen Qun was very anxious and asked unrelentingly: "Please also ask the hussar general to make it clear, why does the hussar general know about my Chen family's knowledge?" ”
Li Zhi saw Chen Qun's face of not giving up if he didn't achieve his goal, and knew that he couldn't hide.
After thinking for a while, Li Zhi replied ambiguously: "Ben Hou heard an old man talk about your Chen family's knowledge.
But don't worry, he only gave a cursory explanation, and didn't go into details. ”
"Old man?" When Chen Qun heard this, he lowered his head and meditated.
However, he thought about it for a long time, and he didn't think of who this old man was, but since this old man knew so much about their Chen family's knowledge, it must be from the Chen family.
With a full stomach full of questions, Chen Qun asked Li Zhi, "I don't know if the hussar general knows what the old man's name is?" ”
Li Zhi shook his head and said with a pretended wistful: "That old man is like an immortal.
After explaining the knowledge of the world's families to Ben Hou, he quietly disappeared without a trace?
Ben Hou searched for a long time but did not find it. ”
"God... A family in the world?! Chen Qun didn't hear anything else, only the words "family in the world" and was stunned.
Seeing this, Li Zhi nodded: "You don't have to worry about being a brother.
The old man only has a rough understanding of the world's families, and it must be hearsay.
He saw that Ben Hou was pleasing to the eye, so he told Ben Hou about these things, and did not reveal the inheritance in the family. ”
"I see" Chen Qun wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded in disbelief.
Seeing that Chen Qun had finally been fooled, Li Zhi breathed a long sigh ......of relief in his heart......
