Chapter 179: Can't be too indulgent
led Yuan Xu and Guo Jia into the house, and Cheng Yu instructed his subordinates to buy dishes.
Guo Jia opened the wine bottle and handed it to him: "Cheng Gong smelled it." ”
Cheng Yu sniffed it, the wine was strong, he had never smelled such a mellow smell of wine.
"Childe even makes this kind of wine." Cheng Yu said: "If it is sent to the market, it must not be a sky-high price? ”
"The process is complicated, and if I don't sell it at a sky-high price, won't I lose a lot?" Yuan Xu replied with a smile: "I didn't come here to drink, but to ask Zhongde about other things." ”
"What Childe wants to ask, is it information about Liaodong?" Cheng Yu was clear, and explained the words first.
Yuan Xu nodded: "What I want to ask is about Liaodong." ”
"Gongsun Du of Liaodong is seriously ill, and now Gongsun Kang is in charge." Cheng Yu replied: "I went to persuade Gongsun Kang to send troops, but not only did he not agree, but he also asked people to tie me up and send me to Hebei, which shows that he is afraid of Gongzi." ”
Cheng Yu mentioned that he was tied up by Gongsun Kang, and Yuan Xu laughed: "Wronged Zhongde." ”
"It's not self-inflicted." Cheng Yu sighed and shook his head: "When I followed Cao Mengde, I didn't cause trouble for my son. ”
"If you hadn't caused me trouble then, I wouldn't have dared to reuse it." Yuan Xu said: "The more trouble you cause me, the more capable I become." What I like is people who have the ability. If I am given a bunch of mediocre talents, even if I get the world, who can help me keep it? ”
Looking at Yuan Xu in astonishment, Cheng Yu looked dazed.
He didn't expect that Yuan Xu would be so generous to these people under Cao Cao.
"Childe!" Cheng Yu stood up and bowed to Yuan Xu: "I am willing to go to Liaodong again and persuade Gongsun Kang to surrender." ”
"Of course you want to go." Yuan Xu replied: "But he didn't go alone, but with me." ”
Cheng Yu looked confused and asked Yuan Xu, "Childe wants to go in person?" ”
"Although Liaodong is a small place, it is also very important." Yuan Xu replied: "Allowing Gongsun Kang to sit there will be a disaster sooner or later." Of course, the sooner it is resolved, the better. ”
"The whole north needs to be resolved as soon as possible." Cheng Yu said: "Ma Teng and Han Sui of Xiliang have self-respecting troops, and with the support of the Qiang people, they have not paid tribute to the imperial court for many years. If it is allowed to grow, it will be more troublesome than Liaodong. ”
"Cao Mengde also told me this." Yuan Xu nodded: "I'm also thinking, it's indeed time to set up a rule." ”
"Ma Teng has a son Ma Chao under his knees, who is brave and martial, and the son can detain him in Yecheng as a hostage." Cheng Yu said: "Without Ma Chao, even if Ma Teng wants to turn his back on the imperial court, his strength will be reduced by half." ”
"Xiliang, I'm going to go in person." Yuan Xu replied: "The world has been in dispute for many years, and heroes have arisen everywhere, and Ma Teng and Han Sui have been entrenched in Xiliang for many years. If you don't let them see something, they won't do it easily. ”
"What Childe said is that just going to Xiliang is too time-consuming." Cheng Yu frowned.
Yuan Xu also frowned.
His sitting unicorn ran fast, but if he wanted to go to Xiliang alone, he was completely out of momentum.
I've got to figure out how to get some fast horses......
As he pondered, the voice of the magic voice echoed in his ears: "Congratulations to the lord, start the mount mission." ”
Yuan Xu looked confused.
Where is this?
How did you start the mount quest again......
He asked the demon voice in his heart, "Where is the mount mission completed?" ”
"The lord already has an idea, sooner or later he will enter the task." The magic voice replied: "The specific place to open still needs to be found by the lord himself." ”
"You're getting worse and worse now." Yuan Xu muttered: "I just said that I started the mission, and I didn't even tell me where it was, where do you want me to find it?" ”
"It's a task, but of course it's going to get harder and harder." The magic voice replied: "Don't worry, my lord, it will be able to open sooner or later." ”
Dropping this sentence, the magic sound disappeared.
Yuan Xu was still stunned, wondering where to start the mount mission.
What are the mounts obtained from the mission......
He didn't speak for a while, and Cheng Yu asked tentatively: "Childe, is this so?" ”
Yuan Xu was stunned for a moment, and Chong Chengyu smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that I thought of something by chance." ”
"When does Childe plan to go to Liaodong?" Cheng Yu asked again.
"I'll be gone in two days." Yuan Xu replied: "Just back to Yecheng, some things here still have to be taken care of." ”
"When Childe is leaving, just say hello." Cheng Yu said: "I am willing to do my best for my son." ”
Leaving Cheng Yu's residence, Yuan Xu remembered someone again.
He asked Guo Jia: "What happened to Xu Zhongkang?" ”
Guo Jia replied: "He also served Gongzi, and when he learned that Cao Mengde was defeated and captured, he had already made Gongzi's master book, and he couldn't believe it." ”
"Most of the brave generals are tendons." Yuan Xu instructed: "Invite him to my study later." ”
Guo Jia agreed, and ordered a guard to ask Xu Chu.
Back in the mansion, Yuan Xu and Guo Jia waited for Xu Chu to come in the study.
Taking advantage of this time, Yuan Xu learned something about what happened in Hebei from Guo Jia.
The two were talking, and the guard reported: "Childe, Xu Zhongkang has arrived." ”
"Ask him to come in." Yuan Xu commanded.
The guard led Xu Chu into the study.
Seeing Yuan Xu, Xu Chu bowed.
Yuan Xu got up and said to him, "Zhongkang doesn't have to be polite, sit down and talk." ”
"I don't sit." Xu Chu replied simply.
"What? Could it be that I offended Zhong Kang? Yuan Xu asked him with a smile.
"Nope." Xu Chu replied: "It was I who offended my son." ”
"Oh?" Yuan Xu looked surprised and asked Xu Chu, "When did Zhongkang offend me?" How come I don't remember? ”
"Childe doesn't remember, but I do." Xu Chu replied: "When the son surrendered, I refused to ...... death."
"That's Zhong Kang's affection for Cao Mengde." Yuan Xu replied: "When Fengxiao and others voted for me, didn't they also bargain with me? ”
mentioned that he defected to Yuan Xu at the beginning, Guo Jia smiled.
Xu Chu wondered: "Fengxiao took refuge in his son, what price did he bargain for?" ”
"They will not be an enemy of Cao Mengde." Yuan Xu replied to him bluntly.
Xu Chu asked in disbelief: "Childe agreed?" ”
"Of course I agree." Yuan Xu replied: "Either kill them, or agree to the conditions and take them under your command." Does Chung Hong think there is any reason why I should not agree? ”
"Since I voted, I still mention these." Xu Chu scratched his head: "I don't understand ...... very well"
"Feng Xiao and others used their way to prove loyalty." Yuan Xu said to Xu Chu: "Zhongkang is also using your way. Loyal and righteous people have always been rare, how can I hold a grudge against you because of this? ”
Xu Chu finally understood what Yuan Xu meant.
He said to Yuan Xu: "Childe doesn't hold grudges, but I will remember it." Now there is nothing to repay, and when you go to the battlefield in the future, you will definitely not disappoint your son. ”
