Chapter 33: Parting
"Teacher leaving?" In the government office, Chen Mo looked at Zang Hong speechlessly, he thought that he could rely on this method to keep Zang Hong, who knew that he would have to leave in the end, which made Chen Mo a little helpless, and pulled Zang Hong and said: "But what's wrong with the disciple?" ”
"Bodao, you are not young now, and you are the master of one party, don't be like this!" Zang Hong looked around, and looked at Chen Mo with a pitiful face a little speechless: "The teacher has already said that he will leave after helping you take care of these things, and you don't want to be assassinated all day long, right?" ”
During this time, Zang Hong was offended by the wealthy gentry of Hedong and even Taiyuan, and if he didn't leave, he was really worried that he would be beaten by the crowd one day when he walked on the road.
"The disciple also knows, it's just ......" Chen Mo sighed: "Farewell today, I don't know when I will see you again, the disciple has some ...... in his heart after all"
"I'll see you again." Zang Hong said with a smile: "Bodao, now you are the assassin of the state, although there are only two counties now, but with your means, it should not be difficult to take the Shangdang, Shangjun, Yanmen and other places." ”
"The teacher is overrated." Chen Mo said modestly.
"Again, don't do too much in everything." Zang Hong looked at Chen Mo and smiled: "Leave room for others, and leave some room for yourself." ”
"The teacher means something this time." Chen Mo smiled and asked, "But about this criminal law?" ”
"Although the criminal law is a bit excessive, you let the teacher do it, but it also leaves a little leeway." Zang Hong smacked his lips, looking at his young disciple, who was really a person who did big things, and even took advantage of the teacher: "I have seen Xu Rong." ”
Since Xu Rong was captured by Chen Mo, Chen Mo did not treat him harshly, living in Anyi, Chen Mo arranged a manor for him alone, and there were domestic servants and maidservants in and out After that, in addition to the restricted movement, the treatment was definitely good among the captives.
Chen Mo was not surprised by this, anyway, the person was already with him, with the current situation, even if Yuan Shao knew, he would choose not to know.
"Although Xu Rong is Dong Zhuo's general, but this person's talent, the teacher should know, is a rare handsome talent!" Chen Mo smiled.
"It is precisely because of this that you shouldn't arrest him, this kind of talent, you should accept his heart, not imprison, for the teacher to know that there is a gambling contract between you, but Bo Dao has ever thought that if he is defeated by Dong Zhuo, then Xu Rong will vote for you according to his words, will he be fully loyal to you? Or can you trust him? Zang Hong asked with a smile.
Chen Mo nodded when he heard this, he naturally considered this problem, if such a talent is killed, he will naturally not bear it, but if he is put back, if he is an enemy of himself in the future, it is Chen Mo who has confidence in his own war, in the face of this kind of person, Chen Mo does not dare to say that he will win, although he may not be willing to give himself filial piety in the future, but at least he will not become his enemy, even if he messes around, Chen Mo will at least not worry about one day such a person standing on the opposite side of himself.
"I know you have your own plans, but ......" Zang Hong lowered his body and grabbed a handful of dry soil and held it in his hand: "It's like this sand between your fingers, the harder you push, the harder it is to grip." ”
With Zang Hong's movements, the sand in his hands was constantly squeezed out and scattered with the wind.
"Thank you for the teacher's teachings, and I will remember it!" Chen Mo nodded and said.
"What the teacher can teach you, in fact, has already been taught, everyone's path is different, the teacher will not force you to take the road of the teacher, but the way forward, you need to walk by yourself, how to do it, no one can help you anymore!" Zang Hong shook his hand, threw away the sand in his hand, touched Chen Mo's head and sighed.
Chen Mo: "......"
"Then the teacher's path is just the righteousness of friends?" Chen Mo suddenly frowned and asked, "This is a small righteousness!" ”
"There is no difference between righteousness and righteousness, and as a teacher, I don't think that righteousness is much more noble than righteousness, but it is just an inherent evaluation in the hearts of the world." Zang Hong said casually, Zhang Chao may not be as brave and decisive as Chen Mo, but Zhang Chao can trust him with his life, treat me as a countryman, and I will return it as a countryman, this is Zang Hong's way.
"Disciples are taught!" Chen Mo sighed, his teacher, is actually a little paranoid, and the nine cows can't pull it back.
Zang Hong glanced at Chen Mo with a smile and said, "Don't come tomorrow to send it, this kind of thing is still not very comfortable after all." ”
"Hmm." Chen Mo nodded, and after accompanying Zang Hong around the city, he sent Zang Hong back to the guest room before returning to the room to rest.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Zang Hong went out with his bags on his back, but saw a person waiting outside the door.
"Dalang?" Zang Hong looked at Da Lang standing with a knife in amazement, and said with a smile: "Why are you here?" ”
"The lord is afraid that the teacher will be assassinated, so he specially ordered the teacher to cross the river!" Da Lang saluted Zang Hong and said solemnly: "The chariots and horses are already waiting outside the mansion." ”
"Sometimes, it's not a good thing for a disciple to be too smart!" Zang Hong shook his head and sighed, feeling that he did not have the slightest privacy in front of this disciple.
Da Lang didn't speak, he was already a little withdrawn, this year, he trained in the army, practiced martial arts, studied the art of war, and talked even less, even if Zang Hong watched himself grow up, but he couldn't find any topics.
Da Lang brought two hundred elites this time, all of whom were brave in the army, and were specifically responsible for escorting Zang Hong across the river.
The morning sun was rising, dispelling the boundless darkness of music, Chen Mo stood at the door and looked at the direction where the carriage and horse left, his shoulders suddenly sank, and a pair of plain hands helped Chen Mo put on a cloak.
"Since the husband is reluctant, why not send him off in person?" Cai Yan stood behind Chen Mo and wondered.
"The teacher's order cannot be violated, the parting is sad after all, the teacher is unwilling, and the husband actually doesn't want to face the parting, and I don't know when we can see each other this time." Chen Mo turned his head and took off his cloak and put it on Cai Yan and said with a smile: "Madame was tired all night last night, don't get up so early." ”
Cai Yanqiao's face flushed, and she said lightly: "Husband always says such vulgar words. ”
Chen Mo: "? ”
That rude?
"I'm going back." Chen Mo beckoned to Cai Yan and walked towards his mother's room: "In a few days, my husband will go to Taiyuan, the time may be longer, and the family affairs still need to be bothered by the wife." ”
"When is the husband going to leave?" Cai Yan was a little reluctant, although Chen Mo often laughed at some meat things, but it also brought Cai Yan a lot of experience that he had not experienced, and now that he has just gotten married, he will be separated, so he is naturally reluctant, but a man is busy with his career, and as a wife, he can't be rude to keep it.
"Let's save my relatives." Chen Mo said with a smile, the reason why Cai Yong didn't leave was to wait for the provincial relatives to return to Chang'an, the situation in Shangdang and other places has begun to be laid out, Chen Mo is not too anxious here, in addition, the Yanmen guards and Taishou have sent people to contact many times, and there is a sense of attachment, which can be regarded as a gift left to him by Zang Hong, Zang Min has a lot of old departments in Bingzhou.
"The concubine has made up a repertoire for the music of the military formation, can the husband listen to it later?"
"Madame should rest first, and it will not be too late to play in the afternoon."
Although it is still a newlywed, Chen Mo, as the principal of the entire state now, naturally can't linger in the private affairs of his children all day long, and spend most of the morning in various government offices, this time the court hopes that Chen Mo can supply salt to Chang'an here, and Chen Mo has the most important thing to grasp Hedong is also in this point, especially Shuzhong is still in chaos, Liu Yan broke off the connection with the court after entering Shu, and the salt of the court can only be taken from Hedong.
If Chen Mo refuses, I'm afraid Dong Zhuo won't give up, if Chen Mo hadn't occupied Hedong first, Dong Zhuo would definitely let his henchmen come to Hedong.
But if you want to worship for free, Chen Mo is naturally unwilling, but you can't say this kind of thing clearly, so although Chen Mo agreed to Dong Zhuo's request to offer salt every year, but the same two places are interconnected, especially in food, Chen Mo complained to Han Rong for two days this time, and the state is tired, the people's livelihood is withering, and a large amount of food is needed for emergency, Han Rong can't replace the imperial court, so he just brought a batch of salt back, but whether he will return the grain, there is no answer for the time being.
However, Chen Mo estimated that the imperial court would still agree to himself, after all, these salts looked like a lot, in fact, it was the consumption of the entire Guanzhong for a year, but Chen Mo asked the people to communicate with each other, and Han Rong agreed very happily.
In terms of business, not only Guanzhong, but also Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Jizhou and even Qingxu have reached cooperation, of course, this is under the premise that there is no war, if the war is together, the places that can communicate with each other will shrink.
Although he promised to study the repertoire with his wife in the afternoon, Chen Mo still couldn't go back in the end.
In Xu Rong's courtyard, Xu Rong silently added a drink to Chen Mo, seeing that Chen Mo had not spoken, Xu Rong couldn't help frowning and asked: "Just after the wedding of the king, how did you think of coming here to accompany your wife at home?" ”
"General Xu, if Dong Zhuo is defeated within five years, will you really use it for me?" Chen Mo fumbled for the wine buds and looked up at Xu Rongdao.
"Although the last general is not a hero, he also believes in his word." Xu Rong said solemnly.
"Will you hate me?" Chen Mo was obviously not satisfied with this answer, Xu Rong would be used by Chen Mo because of Xinyi, Zang Hong's words still had a deep impact on Chen Mo after all.
"Hate will not, the two armies are fighting, each has its own tricks, and the defeated is not qualified to ask for anything." Xu Rong shook his head and said.
"Since that's the case...... Chen Mo drank all the wine in the middle of the wine, looked at Xu Rong and said: "Then I will let General Xu go back to Chang'an, and on the day of Dong Zhuo's defeat, how about the general come back to fulfill the contract?" ”
Xu Rong raised his head, looked at Chen Mo unexpectedly and said, "So that you are not afraid of revealing what you are planning?" ”
"Don't be afraid, Dong Gong is alive for a day, and Mo is still a minister of the Han Dynasty!" Chen Mo shook his head and said with a smile, as for his things, in fact, the imperial court must know, but Dong Zhuo has just returned to Chang'an, what he wants at this time is stability, as long as Chen Mo is not clear about what he is doing against Dong Zhuo, at this time, it is impossible for Dong Zhuo to raise troops to beg.
"If it is really as the envoy said, he will be defeated by Dong Gong in the future, but the last general will not return......" Xu Rong looked at Chen Mo and said.
"I know you're not convinced." Chen Mo put down the wine buds, looked at Xu Rong seriously, and said: "But I believe that the general is a human being, and if the sword is not sharpened from time to time, it will lose its sharpness, I don't want the general to be abolished here!" ”
"If that's the case, thank you!" Xu Rong got up and bowed to Chen Mo.
"Leave, while I haven't changed my mind." Chen Mo pointed to the package he brought: "There are some documents here, some food and coins, which can be used on the road." ”
Xu Rong bowed deeply to Chen Mo, grabbed the package and turned to leave.
Looking at Xu Rong's back, Chen Mo's eyes were a little complicated, people's hearts are actually difficult to speculate, maybe now Xu Rong has made a decision that if Dong Zhuo is defeated, he will definitely vote, but if it is a year or two, who can say for sure?
Just ...... Bet it once! You can afford to gamble!
