The book is picked up again.

"Okay, you don't have to be afraid, just keep your head up."

After hearing Yuan Shao's words, the herald immediately raised his head.

Then, he looked at the relieved gaze on Yuan Shao's face, and his mind turned, and he immediately asked ecstatically: "The lord thinks his subordinates' guess is right?" ”

"Hmm" Yuan Shao nodded slightly, and said with a kind smile: "You don't have to be so cautious in the future, just say anything directly."

A true strategist is very firm and confident in his own opinions!

If you want to be a true strategist, throw your low self-esteem far away, or others will look down on you! ”

After hearing Yuan Shao's words, the herald's heart bloomed, because since Yuan Shao said this, it proved that Yuan Shao had planned to make him a strategist!

For the herald, this is no different from ascending to the sky in one step, as long as he becomes Yuan Shao's advisor, then he can call himself a scholar in the future, and he is no longer a pariah!

However, after thinking about it for a while, the herald felt that the matter had not been completely settled, and he was still a little uneasy in his heart.

So after he glanced at Yuan Shao cautiously, he said: "Lord, my subordinates don't want to be so inferior, but my subordinates just succumb to a herald, and I really can't be confident." ”

After finishing speaking, he was afraid that Yuan Shao would be angry, so he immediately lowered his head tightly, but his fists were clenched tightly, for fear that Yuan Shao would not be able to hear his words.

"Hehe......" Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment after hearing the herald's words, then chuckled lightly and said: "Put away your careful thoughts, loneliness is always rewarded and punished!"

If you have made a meritorious contribution this time, you will be a knife and pen officer by Lone's side, and when you make a contribution in the future, Lone will inevitably be rewarded.

As long as you are faithful to work for Lone, Lone will not lose your benefits. ”

Yuan Shao is so particular about so much, although the official position of a knife and pen officer, although it seems to be just a small official on the surface, it is somewhat similar to the current secretary.

But it also depends on whose sword and pen officer he is, if he is just a knife and pen officer of the county order, it is really nothing.

But if you are a sword and pen official of Yuan Shaode, it is not worse than the status of an ordinary strategist!

No one dares to underestimate the knife and pen officer next to Yuan Shao, because being a knife and pen official next to Yuan Shao means that this person is Yuan Shao's close minister and confidant, and this is what the seven officials in front of the prime minister said.

And Yuan Shao did this to protect this herald.

The herald just said a point of view that he didn't know if it was true or false, and if Yuan Shao immediately made this herald a high-ranking official, it would definitely cause other people to be dissatisfied.

When the time comes, the herald is in Yuan Shao's

It's going to be difficult.

And appointing this herald as a sword and pen officer will not cause dissatisfaction among others, but it will allow him to enter the core of his team, Yuan Shao's move can be described as well-intentioned.

But the herald didn't notice Yuan Shao's good intentions, he was very dissatisfied after hearing that Yuan Shao was just a sword and pen official for him, and thought: "Good you Yuan Shao!" I have worked hard to give you advice and made such a great contribution.

In the end, you only gave me a small official, which is really inappropriate! ”

Of course, he didn't dare to say this directly, not only did he not show any dissatisfaction, but he bowed deeply to Yuan Shao with a happy face, and thanked: "Thank you for your support, in the future, my subordinates will do their best to give advice to the lord, and they will never live up to the expectations of the lord!" ”

Yuan Shao nodded with satisfaction after hearing the herald's words.

He just deliberately didn't point out his good intentions, just to see if this herald could detect his arrangement.

If you can perceive it, then this person is worth cultivating, if you can't detect it, then you should quit the officialdom early, otherwise, you will inevitably be eaten to the bones.

After seeing the herald happily thanking him, Yuan Shao took it for granted that the herald already knew his good intentions.

So he nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's good that you can understand Lone's good intentions, Lone is still afraid that you think the official is small, hehe......"

Yuan Shao, who thought he had made a joke, waved his hand happily and said, "Okay, I won't stay any longer, let's go back to Yecheng quickly, and I want to see if Gao Ran can atone for his sins." ”

After finishing speaking, he turned on his horse and waved to the army in the distance, and slowly walked towards Yecheng.

After Yuan Shao left, the herald looked at Yuan Shao's back, spit a mouthful, and complained in a low voice: "Do you still know the official who gave me the title?!"

In that case, then why don't you give me a big official? Are you worthy of my good intentions?!

Others say that you Yuan Shao has clear rewards and punishments, but now it seems that rumors are rumors! It's all nonsense!

Maybe it's all rumors you spread yourself in order to put gold on your face, phew! What is it! ”

After saying this, he suddenly looked around with a thief's eyebrows as if he was afraid of being heard.

He was secretly relieved to find that no one had noticed him.

Then, he didn't dare to scold Yuan Shao anymore, so he immediately came to his side of his war horse, turned over his horse, and ran towards Yuan Shao quickly.

…………

Considered by Yuan Shao to be the atonement for his sins, Gao Ran was full of excitement at this time

Asked the adjutant general on the side: "It's strange to say, in the past, a certain family has always felt that betraying the four lords and taking refuge in others is a shameful act!"

But now after a certain family has done something shameless in the past, he feels very excited, and there is a sense of the vastness of the world, why do you say this? ”

Gao Ran was in a very good mood at this time, I don't know why, since he made up his mind to betray Yuan Shao, he actually had a feeling that the world was vast and he could travel by himself.

"Hehe......" After hearing Gao Ran's words, the adjutant general chuckled lightly and said: "This is because, in the past, the general knew from the bottom of his heart that Yuan Shao was an unworthy person.

But the way of loyalty that the general learned imprisoned the true thoughts of the general's own heart.

Now, this cage has been broken by the general himself, and the general will of course feel that the world is vast. ”

After the lieutenant general said these words, he fell into a memory, and he also had the same feeling as Gao Ran.

When he was just a civilian, he only knew how to work hard and live, and he had always lived very numbly, and he never thought that he could become a big official.

But since he came into contact with reason, he suddenly seemed to have been opened a door that had never been opened, and he sensed the vastness of the world.

At that time, he suddenly found that he could even become a big official, and his feeling at that time was exactly the same as the feeling of Gao Ran now.

"......" After hearing the deputy general's explanation, Gao Ran thought for a while, then nodded and said: "You are right, in the second year of following Yuan Shao, I found that Yuan Shao's mud could not support the wall, and it was unbearable!"

But because a certain family has learned the word loyalty since childhood, they really can't pass the level in their hearts, so they have been following Yuan Shao in a daze.

But after the previous events, a certain family suddenly found that they had other choices, so they had this feeling of being high and the sea wide. ”

After saying this, Gao Ran's mood was quite melancholy, no matter how he said it, this could be regarded as a betrayal of the master, and it was really not a good thing.

Then, he waved his hand in a pretended chic manner and said, "Okay, I'll stop talking about these troublesome topics, I'd better say something else, be happy." ”

After hearing Gao Ran's words, the adjutant general rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Is it a subordinate who wants to say this?" Isn't that your first step?! ”

Because they will become colleagues in the future, not to mention that the two of them have been born and died for many years, and they have already become brothers with different surnames who have not sworn to worship, so he doesn't care too much about the superiority and humility when he speaks.

After complaining, the adjutant general touched his nose and said with a wicked smile: "General, you say that when Yuan Shao finds out that the general has betrayed him, how will he be furious?" ”
