Chapter 142: Clever Schemes and Tigers Fight
In Chang'an City, in a luxurious mansion, a young man came to the bedroom and said to a middle-aged man with a weathered face: "Father, the news came, today Li Wei really killed Fan Chou, the child has already inquired, and now the generals in the Xiliang Army are all in danger, and even Guo Yan is a little dissatisfied with Li Wei's behavior of killing Fan Chou without authorization." β
The middle-aged man sneered when he heard the words and said: "I have said a long time ago, Li Dao and Guo Yan are all small vertical sons, Fan Chou is a mediocre child, there is no other long-term vision, there is still hostility between each other, there will definitely be infighting, we just need to take the opportunity to take the matter, the big thing will come true, the person I am worried about is just Li Ru'er, now Li Ru has been stabbed, there is no wise man in the Xiliang army, I only need a little trick, I can let them kill each other, but it's a pity that Chong Fu, Ma Yu and Liu Fan did things carelessly, exposed their identities, and were killed by Fan Chou, And Zhang Chao also left with Pei Qing, it is said that he has become an important adviser under Pei Qing, and he is highly used, and Xu Xuan does not know where to go, otherwise, with more than 2,000 soldiers under Zhang Chao, we will have greater achievements......"
This middle-aged man is, of course, the famous general Zhu Jun at the end of the Han Dynasty, the reason why he chose to cooperate with Li Dao Guo Yan was actually just a hypocrisy, and then took the opportunity to make trouble, but he didn't expect that whether it was Zhang Chao or Xu Xuan, he didn't understand his intentions, he was extremely disappointed in him, and he turned to the Ming Lord, even Zheng Hun followed Zhang Chao to join Pei Qing, which made Zhu Jun very bitter in his heart, but no matter what, his loyalty to the Han has never wavered, in his opinion, for the sake of the Han, a little loss is nothing at all, When everything comes to light in the future, I believe everyone will understand their loyalty.
At this moment, I only heard that a family member outside the door came to report, saying that Jia Gong, the nephew of Jia Xu, was asking to see him.
Zhu Jun was immediately surprised when he heard this, and said to himself: "What is he doing here?" β
The young man beside Zhu Jun was his son Zhu Hao, and after hearing this, he immediately said, "It must be on behalf of Jia Xu." β
"This is natural, this Jia Xu is not ordinary, this person knows the way to advance and retreat, after breaking Chang'an, Li Wei and Guo Yan two thieves wanted him to do Shang Shuling, but Jia Xu insisted on not doing it, so he did the waiting, even so, Jia Xu is different from the general waiting, even if it is Shangshu Ling Pei Mao, he does not dare to underestimate Jia Xu, especially his son Pei Qian is still in Pei Qingying, many things are actually unable to make decisions. Since Jia Xu is a member of the Xiliang Army, sending his nephew to visit at this time must have a deep meaning, and we must be careful. β
When Zhu Jun said this, he no longer had the high spirits just now, and his face was silent and vigilant.
However, although Zhu Jun has now been appointed as a lieutenant, he can't refuse it, after all, Jia Xu represents the generals of the Xiliang Army, and now is not the time to compete with the other party at all.
So Zhu Jun asked Zhu Hao to go to the door to greet him.
After a while, Jia Gong came to the hall and saluted Zhu Jun, and after the greetings were over, Zhu Jun opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know what the virtuous nephew is doing in my mansion?" β
Jia Gong hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Tai Lieutenant, the reason why Xia Guan came here is mainly to be ordered to come to report the killing of Chong Fu and others, after Chong Fu, Ma Yu and Liu Fan were killed, Fan Chou brought his body back to Chang'an to show the public, and his family members were also killed, and now Fan Chou has been executed, but several of them have not been posthumously given positions, what does this mean, there is no need for Xia Guan to say it, right?" However, yesterday, when the lower officials were ordered to investigate several of their masterminds who reported the news to Ma Teng, they found a detail that could not be ignored, the lower officials found that these people had frequently haunted the Taiwei Your Mansion, and the Xiaguan learned after investigation before that several of them were originally Taiwei Your protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials, if this matter is known to the two generals Li Guo, will it be suspected of Taiwei you? β
"This, hmph, this is simply a bloody mouth, a few of them did come and go in my house at the beginning, and they also said that they wanted me to take the lead in dealing with the two generals Li Guo, but I resolutely refused, and what they did after that, but I don't know." Zhu Jun hurriedly defended when he heard this, and at the same time secretly broke out in a cold sweat, he really didn't expect the other party to investigate so carefully, when he secretly gave instructions to Chong Fu and others, every time it was in the middle of the night, I didn't expect that this was also touched to the bottom of the truth, which shows that this Jia Gong's ability is not ordinary, and this Jia Xu is even more terrifying, because he can think of looking for a breakthrough here.
"It seems that I still underestimate this Jia Xu, although he is low-key, but his eyes are vicious, and his calculation ability is not much worse than Li Ru, I originally thought that without Li Ru in the Xiliang Army, I would be able to dominate the world, but I didn't expect that there were still masters here, but since he took the initiative to come to the door, it proves that he does not intend to tell this secret, but just to blackmail himself."
However, although the so-called snake hits seven inches, the current Zhu Jun feels like a snake, he could have done anything, but now his seven inches are exposed to Jia Xu, putting himself in danger.
Sure enough, then I saw Jia Gong spread his hands and said: "Tai Lieutenant, it seems that it is useless for you to explain these things to the lower officials, and you need the two generals Li Guo to believe it." β
This sentence undoubtedly threw out the last hole card, which made Zhu Jun unbearable at all, so Zhu Jun snorted and asked in a deep voice: "What do you want?" β
Jia Gong didn't go around in circles, he said with a smile: "Tai Lieutenant, don't be angry, Xia Guan has no other meaning, Xia Guan just informed Tai Lieutenant, such a thing has been suppressed by Xiaguan, and the investigation results will definitely have other explanations, but once the Xiliang generals fail in the future, please raise your hand." β
Zhu Jun was immediately relieved when he heard this, it seems that Jia Xu also has a sense of loyalty, and he also saw through his plan, this time he came to warn him, don't think that there are no capable people in the Xiliang army, and in addition, he is also making a deal with him, as long as you are willing to forgive me in the future, then I will not expose your scheme, otherwise, everyone will be dead to death.
For Zhu Jun, the most harmful to the country are Li Dao and Guo Yan, Jia Xu is not too harmful in this, and it is impossible to leave him alive.
So Zhu Jun immediately said: "Although the virtuous nephew is relieved, I know that you Wuwei Jia are all important ministers, but you are forced to have no choice but to be a thief and a snake, this is actually no different from me, we are all serving the country, in the future, you will not only have no fault, but will have merit, if there is a difference, the old man is willing to bear it." β
"Thank you Zhu Gong," Jia Gong was overjoyed when he heard this, immediately thanked him, and then said: "Xia Guan has a plan, which can help Zhu Gong, now that Li Dao has killed Fan Chou, Guo Yan must be suspicious in his heart, Zhu Gong Ke suggested that Li Dao give Guo Bi a concubine, in order to calm his heart, Guo Bi's wife is jealous, and will definitely create contradictions, so that their differences will be further increased, so that the Xiliang Army is completely divided, Zhu Gong is determined to achieve great things, and Xia Guan still has other things to deal with, so he will resign."
After finishing speaking, Jia Gong said goodbye, and Zhu Jun was full of surprise, and said with admiration: "This Jia Xu, it is really a last resort, if I achieve great things, I will definitely recruit this person to my command, isn't it worth a hundred Zhang Chao and Xu Xuan?" β
