Please use this site to access. When he came to the courtyard, the housekeeper looked at Gongsun Zhan's room in fear and said, "Guan Changshi, if you want to wake up the thorn Shi, you have to knock on the door in person, I'll go first."
The butler hurried out of the courtyard and lingered no more
Guan Jing shook his robe and strode forward, came to the door, and Guan Jing said: "The lord and minister, Guan Jing asks to see," but there was no sound in the room
After waiting for a while, Guan Jing said again: "The lord and the minister Guan Jing ask to see"
There was a little rustling in the room, but it quickly regained its calm
"The lord and minister Guan Jing ask to see"
Guan Jing stood outside the room and raised his voice and shouted
"Here it is"
Impatient voices came from the room
It didn't take long for the door to open
"Huh"
The moment the door opened, a cold light pierced Guan Jing's chest
Guan Jing stood motionless
Gongsun Chan was in an irritable mood, and in anger, he wanted to teach Guan Jing a lesson with a sword, but seeing that Guan Jing did not hide or avoid his eyes, he was surprised and hurriedly withdrew the sword, and finally the long sword stopped three inches in Guan Jing's chest, and did not pierce Guan Jing's chest, Gongsun Chan glared at Guan Jing viciously, Guan Jing said impatiently: "Come in"
Guan Jing entered the room, but his back was already wet with sweat
The move just now was Guan Jing's gamble with his life, betting that Gongsun Chan would not kill him
Luckily, he was lucky
After Guan Jing entered the room and sat down, he saw Gongsun Zhan's face clearly, at this time, Gongsun Zhan's face was pale, his lips were chapped, his eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was extremely dejected
The high-spirited Gongsun Chan has long been a thing of the past
Gongsun Chan casually threw down the long sword in his hand and sat cross-legged and asked, "What's the matter with me?"
Guan Jing replied: "Don't you know the current situation?"
Gongsun Chan looked helpless and sighed lightly: "What can I do if I know, no matter what, I can't change the situation" There was endless helplessness in his words, because Tai Shici was invincible after entering Youzhou, Gongsun Chan was already disheartened, he seemed to see the scene of Yuan Shaozhong's betrayal and separation in the past
There is no difference between him today and Yuan Shao in the past
Guan Jing said: "Lord, we are only temporarily defeated by Wang Lei, and there is no defeat, if the lord continues to be decadent, the final outcome must be death, the clan is destroyed, please look at the lord's sake, and look at the many civil ministers and military generals who follow the lord, cheer up and lead everyone to prepare for war."
Gongsun Chan said, "Even if I lift my spirits, what use will it be?"
Guan Jing said: "The useful lord asked Wang Lei for peace and got a respite for Youzhou"
Gongsun Zhan sneered twice and said: "Guan Jing, you are also a smart person, why can't you even analyze this matter clearly, if you are Wang Lei, can you accept the peace?"
Guan Jing said stubbornly: "If you don't give it a try, how can you know, when you crusade against Dong Zhuo, the relationship between the lord and Wang Lei is very good, as long as you are a confidant, Wang Lei is likely to let the lord go."
"The idea is good, but the reality is cruel"
Gongsun Zan said in a deep voice: "If Wang Lei will take into account the old friendship, after recovering Zhongshan Kingdom, he will not send a large army to kill Youzhou, the matter has come to this point, Wang Lei will not be able to give up, if it is replaced by Yuan Shao, let Yuan Shao's officials and wives blow the wind, Yuan Shao's ears will be soft, and he may spare my life, but Wang Lei is different, Wang Lei is poor, and he pays the most attention to practical interests, he entered Youzhou for the sake of profit, and the wolf travels thousands of miles to eat meat, you and a wolf will not work."
Guan Jing said: "Since Wang Lei is for the sake of interests, give him benefits"
Gongsun Chan asked, "What are your plans?"
Guan Jing said with a serious expression: "Tai Shi Ci led the army into Zhuo County, and did not take Zhuo County for the time being, so he ceded Zhuo County to Wang Lei and let Wang Lei quit the army, as long as Wang Lei let the lord stay in Youzhou, he would still have a chance to turn over."
Gongsun Zan said: "If Wang Lei doesn't agree, in fact, if I achieve an absolute advantage, I will definitely capture the entire Youzhou in one fell swoop, and I will not give the enemy half a chance."
Guan Jing said: "At this point, I can only try"
Gongsun Zhan thought for a while and said: "In other words, if Wang Lei refuses to accept the proposal to cede Zhuojun, what are you going to do?"
Guan Jing said: "At that point, it depends on the lord's plan."
Gongsun Chan asked, "What advice?"
Guan Jing said: "If Wang Lei does not agree to accept Zhuojun's proposal, at that point, please ask the lord to declare himself to Wang Lei, as long as Wang Lei agrees, there is still a glimmer of hope."
"Minister" Gongsun Chan couldn't help laughing, there was endless desolation in his eyes, and he said disdainfully: "In the past, a gangster in Ye County also wanted me to be a minister?"
Guan Jing chuckled in his heart when he heard this
These words are Gongsun Zhan's real opinion of Wang Lei, in Gongsun Zhan's heart, Wang Lei has always been a gangster in Ye County, not the world-famous Jizhou Mu Wang Lei
Guan Jing said: "My lord, what are your plans?"
Guan Jing was unwilling to say this, and wanted to give it a try
in case of
What if Gongsun Chan agrees?
Gongsun Chan flicked his sleeves and said: "It is impossible to be a minister."
Guan Jing's heart was cold and said: "In this case, the minister will try to cede Zhuojun's way of peace, if it succeeds, the lord will have a chance to breathe and counterattack."
"Go, go, go, just let it go"
Gongsun Chan waved his hand and looked very impatient
Guan Jing got up to say goodbye, and as soon as he walked out of the gatehouse, the door snapped shut, Guan Jing looked back at the closed room, shook his head, and strode away
When the envoy set off from Jixian and arrived, Tai Shici had already arrived at Zhuo County, the county seat of Zhuo County
The county order of Zhuo County has also surrendered to Jucheng
The envoy in the barracks met Tai Shici
After the envoy saluted, he said: "General Taishi often recalls the scene of his acquaintance with Wang Zhoumu in the past, and he is very emotional, how his former friend has come to this point."
Tai Shi Ci said coldly: "Your Excellency should know very well how to develop to this point."
The envoy smiled awkwardly, but said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The original thing is indeed the lord's fault, for this matter, the lord has already had a deep reflection on this matter, in view of this, the lord is willing to make peace with Wang Zhoumu, and cede Zhuo County to Wang Zhoumu to compensate for Wang Zhoumu's loss."
There was endless anticipation in the envoy's eyes
Before leaving, Guan Jing took his hand, handed over the future of Youzhou to him, and told him to do his best to complete the task no matter what
