It was not only Cheng Yu who set off from Shouchun, but also Jia Xu.

The two of them went east and west, one went to Qingzhou, and the other went to merge with the state.

During the Battle of Guandu and the Battle of Cangting, Yuan Tan confronted Zang Ba under Cao Cao in Qingzhou.

Cheng Yu first went to Zang Ba's army, and then went to see Yuan Tan.

Jiang Gan, who was ordered by Yuan Xu to go to Qingzhou, had not left yet, and Cheng Yu came again.

Yuan Tan invited Xin Ping and Xin Bi brothers to the study.

When the brothers entered the house, Xin Ping asked, "Did the son summon us for the fourth son?" ”

Yuan Tan replied: "His people haven't left yet, Cheng Yu is here again." Who do you think I should meet? ”

Xin Ping asked: "The lord handed over Hebei to the fourth son, what does the son think?" ”

Yuan Tan lowered his face coldly: "My father favors him, what can I do?" ”

"It seems that Childe has agreed." Xin Ping said: "It's better to tie up Cheng Yu and send him to Yecheng." ”

"The third brother was assigned to the people, but the second brother kept the position of assassin, but the military power was taken away." Yuan Tan asked, "Do you think he will let me keep my military power?" ”

"Childe is different from them." Xin Ping replied: "Zang Ba's heavy troops are entrenched in Qingzhou, if it weren't for Gongzi, he would have driven straight into Hebei a long time ago." Can't the fourth son see it? ”

"He has many of his subordinates, and if he sends one of them at will, he can replace me." Yuan Tan shook his head.

Xin Ping's meaning is very clear, since he agrees with Yuan Xu, he captured Cheng Yu to show favor to Yecheng.

Yuan Tan didn't want to do that.

Xin Bi asked, "Gongzi wants to take back Hebei from the hands of the fourth prince?" ”

"He will drive the dead, who are our enemies?" Yuan Tan looked annoyed: "Even Cao Cao has suffered at his hands again and again, let alone me?" ”

"Since you don't have a chance of winning, why don't you show favor earlier?" Xin Ping also said: "The third prince has a lesson from the past, but he can't be like him." ”

"What if he really robs me of my military power?" Yuan Tan was still worried that the military power would be taken away by Yuan Xu.

"At least you can keep the history of Qingzhou's thorns." Xin Ping replied: "The fate of the second son and the third son is different. ”

Xin Ping and Xin Bi both tended to take refuge in Yuan Xu.

Yuan Tan was silent for a long time, and then ordered the guards: "Invite Jiang Ziyi." ”

The guards invited Jiang Gan.

Jiang Gan entered the door and greeted Yuan Tan and the others: "When does the eldest son plan to leave?" ”

"I'll just ask you." Yuan Tan asked, "If I go to Qingzhou, what does the fourth brother plan to do to me?" ”

"The son and the eldest son are the same father, can they still cause harm?" Jiang Gan asked, "Dare to ask the eldest son, what do you want?" ”

Yuan Tan was stopped by him, and was stunned for a moment and asked, "What can he give me?" ”

"What the eldest son has, most likely will have." Jiang Gan replied: "Before Duke Yuan died, he handed over Hebei to the fourth prince, didn't he want him to take good care of his brother?" ”

"Can you keep me the military power?" Yuan Tan said: "After bringing soldiers for so many years, the soldiers have long been accustomed to going into battle with me......

"If Duke Yuan hands over Hebei to the eldest son, but my son-in-law has a heavy army, I don't know ......" Jiang Gan did not finish his words.

Yuan Tan understood what he meant: "Ziyi will go and rest first, let me think about it." ”

Jiang Gan retired.

After he went out, Yuan Tan grabbed the cup on the table and threw it out.

"Childe is angry." Xin Ping and Xin Bi persuasion.

"Did you hear what he said?" Yuan Tan pointed to the door, with an angry face: "It's clear that I want to take away my military power......

Xin Ping and Xin Bi were not good at persuasion, so they didn't say anything.

"Invite Cheng Yu here." Yuan Tan instructed the guards: "I want to hear what he can say." ”

"Childe wants to see Cheng Yu?" Xin commented and persuaded: "Once you make a choice, there is no possibility of turning back." ”

"I'm going to hear what he has to say, and then I'll think about it." Yuan Tan replied: "I can't see or see, so I captured people and sent them to Yecheng." ”

The Xin brothers were speechless, so they could only let the guards invite Cheng Yu.

When Cheng Yu came, the brothers didn't look good.

Yuan Tan also had a gloomy face: "You came to see me, what are your intentions?" ”

"I came to Qingzhou to bring benefits to Xiansi." Cheng Yu replied: "What can you do?" ”

"Good for me?" Yuan Tan sneered: "You and I have been hostile for many years, what good is there for me?" ”

Cheng Yu replied: "Yuan Xianxin won Hebei and sent people to Qingzhou, and he should have put forward conditions to Xiansi. If what he mentioned was acceptable, I would have been tied up to Yecheng by this time. So when you see me, it's nothing more than no way out. ”

"How do you know it's not to tie you up?" Yuan Tan said: "I can ask the guards to do it now." ”

Cheng Yu smiled and shook his head: "Xiansi is an understanding person, why bother talking in circles?" ”

"Can give you a chance to speak." Yuan Tan said: "If there is half a sentence that displeases me, you don't have to walk out of this door again." ”

"I came to Qingzhou for Xiansi and for my father-in-law." Cheng Yu said: "Yuan Xianxin got Hebei, can you afford to sit in Qingzhou?" ”

Cheng Yu's words just confirmed Jiang Gan's statement that he had seized military power.

Yuan Tan's eyes narrowed, and he didn't say anything.

"In the battle of Cangting, our army was defeated." Cheng Yu said: "My lord retreated to Huainan, and now he has no strength to seize Hebei, and he only wants to protect himself." ”

"Go on." Yuan Tan motioned for him to continue.

Cheng Yu continued: "Xiansi went to Yecheng, and Qingzhou must not be guaranteed. My father-in-law dealt with Yuan Xianxin alone, and he was by no means his opponent. In the end, he was the only one who benefited. ”

"What do you think I should do?" Yuan Tan asked.

"Unite with my lord." Cheng Yu replied: "Xiansi sent troops from Qingzhou, and our army started from Huainan to break Yuan Xianxin. ”

"Shut up!" Xin Ping shouted: "Cao Cao's evil intentions, don't you think that no one in Qingzhou can see it?" ”

He said to Yuan Tan: "Childe must not trust this person. No matter how bad the fourth son is, at least he can keep the son rich and noble. Cao Cao's wolf ambition is Hebei. Once he breaks the fourth son, can Qingzhou be left alone? ”

Cheng Yu laughed.

Xin Ping asked angrily, "What are you laughing at?" ”

"I laugh at you and you can't see through it." Cheng Yu said: "Our army was frustrated in Cangting, and its strength is not as good as before, even if Yuan Xianxin is defeated, how can we have the strength to crusade against Qingzhou?" I have come to see Xiansi for the sake of self-preservation. Why did he end up with a crime of plotting against Qingzhou? ”

Xin Ping was choked by his question.

Xin Bi sneered: "It seems to make a lot of sense, marching into Yecheng, is there no loss in our army?" Won't the military decay? ”

"If it's a war, of course there will be attrition." Cheng Yu replied: "Don't forget, kill Yuan Xianxin, Hebei is Xiansi." Sitting in Hebei, do you still need to be afraid of my lord? ”

Xin Ping and Xin Bi were about to argue, but Yuan Tan said: "I have made up my mind, drive away Jiang Gan, and send troops to Yecheng on a certain day!" ”

Yuan Tan made a decision, Xin Ping and Xin Bi knew that persuasion was useless, so they could only respond.
