Chapter Twenty-Four: Advice Against Ear

Wang Yun walked out of Dong Zhuo's mansion with the civil and military officials, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, although he did not use the princess to trap Dong Zhuo, but he also cleared the suspicion that he left Luoyang in a hurry that day, and next, he had to find Lu Bu for the next step.

Coincidentally, Wang Yun didn't go far before he saw Lu Bu riding a red rabbit horse coming towards him, Wang Yun hurriedly greeted him and said, "Where did Wen Hou come from?" Wang Yun was polite. ”

When Lu Bu saw that it was Wang Yun, he hurriedly jumped off the horse, "Situ, Lu Bu has looked for you several times, but he hasn't met you, and he didn't expect to see him here." ”

Wang Yun smiled, "How can Yun have it, dare to visit Lao Wenhou several times?" ”

Lu Bu's face was flushed for the first time, and he muttered: "Bu Na day saw Situ Ai's concubine Diao Chan, and he loved her very much, Bu took the liberty of asking Situ to cut his love, I don't know if Situ Yun is it?" Although Lu Bu took Diao Chan home, Diao Chan didn't say a word after waking up, just crying day and night, Lu Bu tried all kinds of means, and couldn't let her say a word, but after these few days of contact, Lu Bu's love for Diao Chan has increased unabated.

Wang Yun couldn't help but feel distressed, and said with a smile on his face: "Wen Hou misunderstood, Diao Chan is Yun's righteous daughter, why do you say that Yunzhi loves her concubine?" ”

Lu Bu's eyes widened, he almost couldn't believe his ears, he admired Diao Chan incomparably, the only regret was that Diao Chan had been Wang Yun's concubine, but he didn't expect Wang Yun to say that Diao Chan was not his concubine, but a righteous daughter, so ......

Wang Yun leaned into Lu Bu's ear and whispered: "Wang Yun's family style is strict, Diao Chan is as beautiful as a fairy, Wang Yun disciplines her very strictly, if Wen Hou doesn't believe it, you can personally ask Diao Chan, is she a virgin?" ”

Lu Bu's mouth couldn't close with a smile, his hands danced, and suddenly remembered the matter, and he arched his hand towards Wang Yunyi, "Lord Situ, since this is the case, Lu Bu has the courage to ask the adult to marry his beloved daughter to the young general, if so, he is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." ”

Wang Yun laughed, so he said generously: "Although Diao Chan is Yun's righteous daughter, she can be treated like a daughter, and she also wanted to find a good son-in-law for Diao Chan, but all the people in the court, none of them can match my daughter, and those who are in the top position, such as Wen Hou You, are afraid that they can't look down on Diao Chan, and Yun doesn't dare to speak." I don't want this woman to be blessed, but she is favored by Wenhou, and it's too late for Wang Yun to be happy for Diao Chan, so dare not agree? ”

Lu Bu jumped three feet high and shouted: "Great, I'm going to invite my father-in-law to your mansion to propose marriage, I want Ming Media to marry Diao Chan." After finishing speaking, he rushed to Dong Zhuo's house.

Wang Yun hurriedly grabbed Lu Bu, "Wen Hou, the Taishi was unfortunately assassinated, and he was injured, so don't work when he is old, please Wen Hou go to our house to sit down, how about I discuss with Wen Hou?" ”

Lu Bu thought about it, the anti-righteous father agreed to accept Diao Chan by himself, so it was better to discuss the date by himself and surprise the righteous father when the time came. "Okay, then Lu Bu will be presumptuous."

Lu Bu didn't care about any etiquette, so he went to discuss the wedding date with Wang Yun, and walked a few streets, Wang Yun suddenly pointed to a person behind him and whispered to Lu Bu: "Wen Hou, why did that person follow us so far, could it be that Yang Fengyu was looking for an opportunity to assassinate Wen Hou?" ”

Lu Bu looked back and saw that the man hurriedly hid in the dark, Lu Bu, who was on the rise, couldn't help but be furious, slapped his horse forward, and without giving the man a chance to distinguish, he stabbed him to death with a halberd, shouting: "Come on, drag this Yang Fengyu Dang to feed the dogs!" ”

……

Kang Peng didn't know at this moment that the person he sent to follow Wang Yun had been mistakenly killed by Lu Bu, but was counted down by Li Ru in the study, "Father-in-law, you are too confused...... If you made a mistake, why didn't you agree to the proposal of the ministers of the DPRK and China? This is a good opportunity, the father-in-law married the princess, not only to marry the royal family, but also to continue to control the government in the name of justice. Didn't you agree yesterday, why did you regret it again? ”

Kang Peng shrugged his fat shoulders, "Don't ask me, it was Wen He who signaled me not to agree, he must have seen what is famous in the middle, you go and ask him?" ”

Li Ru hurriedly looked at Jia Xu, Jia Xu shook the folding fan lightly, "Xianjia, after I went back last night, I thought about it carefully, and found that the princess married the princess, which really did more harm than good." Xianjia still remembers the proclamation that 'slandered' the Grand Master? ”

Li Ru nodded, "Of course I remember, Luoyang City has been completely cleared. ”

"Although the notice in Luoyang City has been cleared, it has become a rumor in the government and the opposition, and everyone knows it." Jia Xu continued: "The mastermind behind the scenes has not yet been caught, who can guarantee that the proclamation that 'slandered' the Taishi will not be widely spread to the world? If the Taishi marries the two princesses now, in the eyes of outsiders, wouldn't it be that the Taishi himself acquiesced in those 'slanders' and wanted to cover them up? At that time, the reputation of the Taishi's painstaking management was ruined. ”

Jia Xu paused, "After the Battle of Tiger Prison and the Yang Feng Rebellion, our army has suffered huge losses in soldiers, and most of the materials have been consumed. If the reputation of the Taishi is ruined again, and the princes of the Eighteenth Route repeat it again, there are tens of thousands of refugees in Luoyang waiting to be fed in our army, and there are strong enemies outside the border, how can we resist? ”

After Jia Xu's analysis, Kang Peng and Li Ru suddenly realized that Kang Peng was secretly frightened, he almost fell for a big fool, this trap is not something that ordinary people can see through. Li Ru scolded, "Old thief Ma Ridan, my father-in-law respects him so much, he actually assassinated my father-in-law with such vicious means!" ”

Kang Peng waved his hand, "Xianjia, Ma Ridan is just doing this to maintain the dignity of the imperial court, if the dignity of the princess gives birth to a child out of wedlock, the face of the imperial court will be gone, and he is just being used." ”

Li Ru blurted out, "Wang Yun! It must be Wang Yun! When he returned to Luoyang today, the first thing he went to was Ma Ridan's house, and then there was a matter of persuading his father-in-law to marry the princess. ”

Kang Peng also suspected that these were Wang Yun's tricks behind his back, and wondered in his heart that this Wang Yun's ghost was still lingering, whether he was looking for an excuse to kill him once and for all. At this time, Jia Xu suddenly said: "It's not Wang Yun!" Even if Wang Yun has something to do with this, he is just a pawn. ”

Kang Peng said, "How can you see it." ”

"Wang Yun is not so smart, if Wang Yun is the person who decides, then he has the evidence of what the Taishi did in the palace before, and he should secretly spread it to various counties and prefectures, instigating Liu Biao, Liu Yan and other Han clan relatives to send troops, and when the Taishi leaves Luoyang to meet the enemy again, he will suddenly attack in Luoyang, provoke Yang Feng to mutiny, and attack the Taishi inside and outside, so that he has a chance to win. But he didn't see this only opportunity at all, so he hurriedly provoked Yang Feng to rebel, just a dragonfly shaking the tree. Jia Xu sneered: "This person who gave Wang Yun an idea, what a master!" He dared to say that he had asked Wang Yun to send people to scatter the evidence and the real situation of Luoyang to various places, and instigated the heads of various counties to raise troops. ”

Li Ru was anxious, "Sir, then what should we do?" "He is Dong Zhuojun's financial officer, and he knows Dong Zhuojun's current situation best, and he will definitely not be able to withstand another big war.

Kang Peng understands his current situation, Dong Zhuojun has a strong military on the surface, but there are many internal crises, the first is that Lu Bu is very unreliable, it is a time bomb, but he can't kill him because of his reputation, and the second is that Dong Boss did those good things before, and a group of capable ministers and generals gathered by himself with the will of the fake emperor are all loyal to the Han Dynasty, once their reputation is ruined again, they are the first to rebel. The third is in terms of logistics supply, Dong Zhuo's control of Luoyang Central and Yong, and the two prefectures, Luoyang Central has many people and little land, and the grain production is only enough for self-sufficiency, while the Yongzhou and the two prefectures have fewer people and more land, agricultural production is underdeveloped, and there is not much food that can be provided for the army.

Kang Peng thought farther and farther, from the Yellow Turban Uprising to the Three Kingdoms to one, after 96 years, the land of China was in turmoil, natural disasters and man-made disasters continued, the white bones were exposed in the wild, there was no rooster crying for thousands of miles, the people were cannibalistic, the army used human flesh to satisfy hunger, the Chinese mouth from 50.07 million at the end of the Han Dynasty to only 1.4 million after the Battle of Chibi, the horror of the sharp decline in population was unprecedented, and China's vitality was greatly damaged, which led to the later Wuhu Chaohua, Chinese was enslaved by foreign races for the first time. Now that this time is the only opportunity to avoid this great regression of Chinese history, what should I do to avoid the turmoil of the Three Kingdoms?

"Father-in-law, father-in-law, what are you thinking?" Li Ru saw that Kang Peng didn't speak for a long time, so he had the courage to wake him up.

Kang Peng reacted at this time, and said to Jia Xu: "Mr. Wenhe, he has the ambition of the world, but he is unwilling to kill, please give me advice." ”

Jia Xu also pondered for a long time before he said: "Taishi, there are three strategies for upper, middle and lower, I don't know what strategy Taishi is willing to use?" ”

Kang Pengxin said that you kid learned from Pang Tong to come up with ideas, be careful of being shot to death by random arrows! "I want to hear about it."

"The Taishi immediately proclaimed himself emperor, and our army immediately took action to kill the royal family, the imprisoned princes and the ministers who did not want to submit to the Taishi, and then the troops went out of the Bishui Pass, and took supplies from the wild valleys in various places, and Latin supplemented the source of troops, fed the war with war, and seized the world by force, which is the best policy."

Kang Peng shook his head when he heard this, since ancient times, fighting to raise war will inevitably bring huge losses to the people, which is the last thing he wants to see. "It's too urgent, it's not appropriate, would you like to hear the right policy?"

Jia Xu was very disappointed, although this trick was vicious, it was very appealing to him, and Dong Zhuo would be too boring if he didn't use it. Jia Xu sighed and continued: "The middle strategy is to release the princes of the Eighteenth Route to return to the county, borrow their hands to contain the military horses from all over the country, and the Taishi coerces the Son of Heaven to order the princes and provoke them to kill each other. ”

Kang Peng and Li Ru jumped up at the same time and shouted, "This is even more inappropriate!" Kang Peng was disdainful in his heart, because you Jia Xu is still one of the four major military divisions of the Three Kingdoms, you actually came up with such a bad idea, it is really better to meet than to meet. Release the Eighteen Princes? Isn't this a return to the mountains? Not to mention anything else, just Cao Cao and Liu Bei are big trouble!

Kang Peng was disappointed in Jia Xu, originally he planned to invite Jia Xu to be his military advisor again today, but now he was so angry that he not only didn't want to invite again, but he didn't even bother to listen to Jia Xu's strategy. Kang Peng was about to find an excuse, when Zhao Yun outside the study said: "Master, Miss Cai is here, she seems to be very angry and says she wants to see you." ”

Kang Peng took the opportunity to bow his hand to Jia Xu, "Wen He will sit down for a while, and I will go to see Miss Cai." Xianjia, you come with me. ”

Kang Peng and Li Ru went out together, leaving Jia Xu alone in the study, how could Jia Xu not see Dong Zhuo's thoughts, he didn't argue, just shook the folding fan and sat down, after a long time, Jia Xu said to himself in frustration: "Loyal words, I don't even want to listen to my decision......"

After a long time, Jia Xu said silently: "It's okay if you don't listen, I can also worry about it." After reading, Jia Xu got up lightly and floated away.

……

Kang Peng and Li Ru walked all the way to the outside of the hall, and Kang Peng whispered to Li Ru: "You go and arrange people, assassinate Wang Yun tonight, and then blame Yang Fengyu's party." Also, there will be people who will come to participate in the Confucian Lin Wenhui in a few days, you pay attention to three people, one is called Zhuge Liang Zi Kong Ming, one is called Sima Yi Zi Zhongda, and the other is called Guo Jiazi Fengxiao, as long as they enter Beijing, no matter what means you use, you must come to see me! Jia Xu disappointed Kang Peng, and Kang Peng had to take up the idea of other old foxes and find his own military advisor.

Li Ru nodded, "The son-in-law understands, so I'll arrange it." Li Ru paused when he said this, and then said: "Father-in-law, although Mr. Wenhe's plan is clumsy, he is dedicated to the good of his father-in-law, so you still don't underestimate his role." ”

Kang Peng waved his hand impatiently, at this moment, Kang Peng's heart had already flown to Cai Wenji's side, and he could still listen to Li Ru's words, "I know this, you can do it quickly." Li Ru had no choice but to retire.

"I heard you're going to marry two princesses?" As soon as Kang Peng walked into the hall, Cai Wenji didn't care if there were servants by his side, so he asked with a face: "You are so old, isn't it enough to harm a Xiu'er?" Do you want to pit two princesses again? ”

Kang Peng smiled bitterly, this girl's fiery temper really can't be changed, but it's okay, I'm jealous again, I still have a status in her heart. Kang Peng said with a smile: "Of course Benxiang knows, didn't Benxiang refuse?" ”

Cai Wenji's anger subsided a little, "Hmph, if you dare to harm the two princesses, I will never ignore you." ”

In front of Cai Wenji, Kang Peng was so humble that he was like a slave, nodded and said, "Of course, of course, I don't dare." Kang Peng added in his heart, I don't marry a princess, can I marry you to compensate?

Kang Peng's groveling appearance made Cai Wenji smile again and again, "Taishi, do you know? My Zhongdao brother has returned to Luoyang. Kang Peng's face sank, and his heart said that hypocrite came back, why did you tell me? Want to drive me mad?

Cai Wenji didn't notice Kang Peng's face, and said with a coquettish smile: "Taishi, the simplified Chinese character you taught me is really powerful, Brother Zhongdao doesn't know a word, and he admires me very much." ”

Brother Nakamichi? The call was really affectionate, and Kang Peng was even more apprehensive in his heart. At this time, Cai Wenji was accustomed to holding Kang Peng's thick arm and swaying: "Taishi, you are injured and can't manage politics, can you teach me more simplified Chinese characters these days?" I'm going to Brother Zhongdao to death. ”

Kang Pengxin said that you really him off, but I was relieved, and I married you directly. But Cai Wenji's request Kang Peng will never refuse, "Okay, I can't go to court these days, so I'll teach you more." ”

"Great, Master, you're so good!" Cai Wenji cheered.
