"Haha..." Xun Yu laughed and said, "Brother Xian's words are really white. ”

"I'm a straight-hearted person and don't beat around the bush." Xun Kan said with a serious expression: "I need to make it clear that I came to Xuchang not to ask for food." Instead, give Cao Cao a chance. If he doesn't know how to cherish it, that's it.... ”

"Brother Xian, I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I'll take you to see the prime minister tomorrow. As for compensation, you can talk to the prime minister, and I won't have to ask. Xun Yu said.

"Okay, let's decide..."

Xun Kan snickered in his heart.

Next.

Xun Yu took him to the Prime Minister's Mansion to meet him.

Cao Cao was also like Xun Yu, and asked bluntly: "Xun Kan, you came here just to get a compensation, I don't argue with you, you just say, how much do you need?" ”

"Fifty million!"

Xun Kan did not refute Cao Cao's insult to him, and directly said a sky-high price.

Fifty million five baht is nothing to Yuan Xi, and even the Zhen family can take it. But Cao Cao fights every year and uses money every year, how can there be so much?

Not to mention 50 million, even if it is 20 million, he can't take it out.

"Are you kidding? Million? ”

"There is no joke under it. This is the original word of my Lord. If... If the prime minister can't take out 50 million, then within a month, our Hebei army will march south again, and then.... ”

"You dare to threaten me?" Cao Cao is also a proud person, how can he be threatened by this.

"Don't dare."

Xun Kan lowered his head and arched his hand slightly.

He realized that his words were a little heavy...

Because Cao Cao is different from Xun Yu.

Xun Yu is his clan relative and Cao Cao's subordinate, so it is very necessary to show his identity and retrial position in front of him. Moreover, Xun Yu will not be angry.

But Cao Cao was different.

Cao Cao is the master of the people, how can he not be annoyed in the face of Yuan Xi's difficulties and blackmail?

What's more, Cao Cao's strength is strong, not much weaker than Yuan Xi, why should he accept blackmail?

Whew...

Cao Cao exhaled softly, as if calming his mood.

Then he said: "Xun Kan, for the sake of you being a relative of the Xun Yu clan, I don't care about you." However, the battle of Luoyang was provoked by Yuan Xi first, and I purely wanted to protect myself, why should I be compensated? ”

"The Prime Minister's words are not good." Xun Kan said according to Yuan Xi's instructions: "My troops stationed in Xiaopingjin are only on routine patrols. Dare to ask the prime minister, did they attack Luoyang? Has there been any damage to a single grass or tree in Luoyang? Why did the prime minister order to send me 20,000 soldiers.... Does the prime minister remember the Pengcheng Alliance? What you're doing now, dare you say it's not wrong? ”

"Hmph, quibble!"

Xu Chu, the commander of the Tiger Guard, who was standing aside, said: "If it weren't for General Cao Xu who killed 20,000 of you, I'm afraid that you would have captured Luoyang by now, right?" Shame on you to say this now! ”

"You..."

Xun Kan looked angry, pointed at Xu Chu, shook his hand and said, "I don't talk to the puppet!" ”

Cao Cao stopped Xu Chu and said to Xun Kan: "Let's not talk about the responsibility of the Battle of Luoyang. You just said that you need 50 million money, is this really what Yuan Xi meant? ”

"Yes."

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Even if it's what he meant." But... The imperial court really can't come up with this money, so what can it do? ”

Xun Kan seemed to have expected this situation for a long time, and he also had a way to deal with it, and chuckled: "Why should the prime minister worry? As long as the prime minister writes a document promising to owe Hebei 50 million and pay it off within two years, we can wait. ”

"It's as simple as that? Will Yuan Xi agree? "Cao Cao said in his heart that Yuan Xi sent a messenger to Xuchang just to get a document? I can't figure it out no matter how you look at it.

"The Lord Guild agreed." Xun Kan smiled: "Besides... In the next and Wen Ruo is a clan, in the final analysis, we are our own people, how can there be our own people who don't help their own people? Even if the lord doesn't agree, I will take care of it. ”

That's not sincere.

Cao Cao didn't take it to heart.

Jia Xu, who had not spoken, slowly got up and said, "Since Mr. Xun has made such a concession, the prime minister may as well agree." It is limited to two years, and 50 million dollars are paid. ”

"Do you think it's okay?"

"There's nothing that can't be done, isn't it just 50 million, I am a dignified Han court, can't I even take out 50 million money?" Jia Xu laughed a few times and said, "That's really a joke." ”

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Okay." ”

"Xun Kan, what you just said, I should go."

"The prime minister is really refreshing. It's not in vain that I came thousands of miles away, and I finally fulfilled my mission. Ignorance.... When can I get the paperwork next? It's better to go back to Hebei and return to the lord. ”

Cao Cao said: "It's getting late today. Tomorrow at noon, I will deliver the paperwork to you. ”

"Prime Minister Xie."

After the conversation, Cao Cao left Xun Kan in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

With Xun Yu and Xun You's uncle and nephew as accompaniment, Xun Kan had a lot of fun. But from beginning to end, he kept one eye open, constantly observing and analyzing the people present.

According to his observations, he found that the people of the Yingchuan family, under Cao Cao's hands, did not seem to be very important.

On the contrary, it was Jia Xu, who was born in a poor family, no matter what he said, Cao Cao listened to him.

Xun Kan asked Cheng Yu and said that Guo Jia recommended it to Cao Cao's adviser before his death.

So he understood.

The strategists recommended by Guo Jia, of course, Cao Cao attaches great importance to them.

..........

The moon stars are scarce.

The house is brightly lit.

In order to show the importance he attaches to Xun Kan, Cao Cao called a lot of literati and generals to accompany Xun Kan.

The dinner under the moon is also extremely rich.

The sound of the piano is melodious, and the female concubine dances.

At this time, Xun Kan was drunk, and suddenly ran to the middle of the crowd, holding a wine bottle and shouting: "Everyone... Everybody listens to me. I came to Xuchang from Hebei this time, it was.... The prime minister has promised to give me the paperwork and pay off 50 million yuan within two years. I, Xun Kan, can be regarded as worthy of my mission. Come, let's have a drink. ”

The people present were all figures with heads and faces, not only Cao Cao's henchmen, strategists, and generals, but also courtiers who were interested in the Han Dynasty, as well as the scholars of the family in Xuchang City.

After hearing Xun Kan's drunken words, most people were stunned.

If this is true, Cao Cao will owe Hebei 50 million money. What a huge sum of money is this, and what will Cao Cao pay back? Of course, this is not the most important thing.

Xun Kan said it in front of so many people, not to make trouble for Cao Cao.

He's going to sit on it.

Now everyone knows that Cao Cao's promise to pay Yuan Xi 50 million yuan is already an ironclad fact, even if Cao Cao wanted to regret it before, he can't regret it now. He could only obediently hand over the document to Xun Kan.

"Get him down, he must be drunk." Cao Cao instructed Xu Chu.

"Let's go!" Xu Chu ran over in three steps and two steps, grabbed Xun Kan's hand and dragged him outside the yard. In this way, Xun Kan was taken away from the scene.

It looks a little incredible, and it's a little embarrassing. But Xun Kan is also smart, when Xu Chu grabbed him, he pretended to be asleep, and everything had nothing to do with him.
