"What?" Zhao Yu exclaimed in surprise and said, "Zibu, do you really want to move your family to Jiangdong?" Zhao Yu looked at him in disbelief, Jiangdong in this era was not a later generation, and it was still very backward compared to the Central Plains, so after hearing him say this, he would inevitably be surprised.

"Exactly." Zhang Zhao did not allow him to do anything. Then he looked at Liu Lan again and said, "So make Jun Ke think about it, if you let the old man leave this time, the old man will move to Jiangdong in a few days, and it will be too late for Jun to regret it." ”

Liu Lan's eyes flashed, if a talent like Zhang Zhao is not used for himself, if he will serve Sun Ce in the future, it must be a big threat, since he can't use it for himself, then the best way is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, this thought flashed in his heart, but there was no trace of desire to kill Zhang Zhao and then happy, pondered for a long time, and said: "Since Mr. Zhang insists on this, how dare Deran force it." After speaking, he shouted outward: "Release people." ”

Zhang Zhao didn't expect Liu Lan to really agree to release him, so he inevitably looked at him differently, arched his hand, and said, "Since this is the case, the old man will leave and return to Pengcheng." ”

"Wait." Liu Lan said suddenly.

Zhang Zhao looked at Liu Lan with cold eyes: "Could it be that you regret it?" ”

Even Zhao Yu on the side thought that Liu Lan had repented, so he was stunned in place, but he didn't want to hear him say: "There is no reason to take back what you say, even if you say it, how can you regret it?" He looked at Zhang Zhao and reminded him, saying: "It's just that now Guangling is restless, Mr. Zibu wants to move to Jiangdong, he must pass through here, I don't know if I can wait, after I calm Guangling, how about crossing the river safely?" ”

Zhang Zhao was stunned, how could he not know that Liu Lan was saving himself in disguise. Hoping to persuade himself during this time, he sighed slightly after a while. Said: "Since the envoy is so thoughtful, the old man can only obey the order." But in his heart, he thought, the old man should take a look, and wait for Guangling to calm down. What tricks will you play to keep the old man in Xuzhou! ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Liu Lan left after receiving Zhang Zhao warmly, while Zhao Yu sent Zhang Zhao out of the city.

Under the escort of the guards, he returned to the county government and fell into the golden Wuxi, the jade rabbit was born, and as soon as he arrived in the backyard, he saw Mi Zhen's personal girl Dongmei looking around, and after seeing himself, he ran over with a smoke, panting and said, "Master." You're back. ”

"How?" The little girl in front of Liu Lan ran over in a hurry.

"Madame, she invites you to come over." Dongmei said with a slight urge.

Liu Lan's expression was complicated, he knew that Mi Zhen was for the Cao Bao family's affairs, nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Dongmei led the way, and Liu Lan's voice suddenly sounded: "Dongmei, why is your young lady looking for me?" ”

Dongmei paused for a moment and a half, and then her big bony eyes just rolled like this, and she shook her head and said, "The slave doesn't know, doesn't the master know everything when he goes?" ”

Liu Lan didn't know if the little girl was telling the truth. Turning his head and changing his face, there was a little sternness in his voice, and he said, "Did your young lady come to me for the Cao family's affairs?" ”

Dongmei was startled and secretly glanced at Liu Lan, who had an elongated face. Hurriedly shook his head, not wanting Liu An to hurry over from afar, Shi Li said, "The head of the family." Mi Zizhong asked to see him. ”

Liu Lan looked at Dongmei and smiled bitterly, and said, "Dongmei, you go and tell your young lady." So he said that I would go to him when I was done. ”

After speaking, he followed Liu An to the conference hall. As soon as I entered the hall, I saw Mi Zhu sitting in the hall, his brows furrowed, and he was staring at the tea cup in front of him a few times ago, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Mi Zhu wouldn't have come for the Cao family, right? Liu Lan frowned slightly, his sister Mi Zhen didn't know how to prioritize or not, could it be that Mi Zhu was so confused? Is it difficult to bury Xuzhou for personal revenge? His expression turned cold instantly, but he still pretended to be smiling, and said, "Zizhong, I don't know what to do when I came here at this time?" ”

"I've seen Liu Yuanjun." Mi Zhu bowed down to salute, but he didn't make his intentions clear, only waiting for an envoy to pour tea and water for the two of them, and after bringing the fruits and leaving, he whispered: "Lord, there is a person who came to visit Zizhong today and wants to transfer this matter to Zizhong to the lord." ”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of Caihou paper from his arms, cherished it and handed it to Liu Lan, and said, "Zizhong doesn't dare to slack off, so he specially brings this thing to the lord to see." ”

Liu Lan looked at Mi Zhu suspiciously, stretched out his hand to take the Cai Hou paper handed by Mi Zhu, and read the list, only to see that many names were densely written on it, and the first two were Xu Tan and Zhang Xu.

Seeing this, Liu Lan knew what the meaning of this paper was no matter how stupid he was, but he still looked at him and confirmed: "What is the name in this paper?" ”

"These people are Cao Bao's heart." Mi Zhu's answer confirmed Liu Lan's thoughts, pointed to Cao Hong's name above, and said, "This Cao Hong is also Cao Bao's heart?" ”

"I don't know this, but Zizhong knows that Cao Hong is a distant relative of the Cao family, and how to determine whether he is Cao Bao's party still needs to be cleared."

Liu Lan was in a very good mood when he saw this list, which could enable him to control the Danyang Army in the shortest possible time, but when he heard Mi Zhu say this, a trace of coldness flashed in his heart, after all, if Mi Zhu could 100% guarantee that these people were Cao Bao's henchmen, then he would definitely not doubt it, but judging from Cao Hong's matter, his hesitation was a little more tired.

After carefully looking at the names on the paper, he immediately found more strange things, pointed to the list and asked Mi Zhu, "Why is there no Lu You on it?" ”

Liu Lan's face suddenly became fierce, Mi Zhu was shocked, and hurriedly explained: "Lord, the person who sent this list is not listed by others, it is Lu You. ”

Liu Lan reacted to what was going on and muttered to himself: "So that's the case." Suddenly laughed, and said, "Zizhong, what do you think about this matter?" ”

"Forgive Zizhong for being ignorant." Mi Zhu said so, but he still analyzed it carefully, and said: "There are no more than two possibilities for this matter, one is that Lu You will announce it to the lord again, and the other is to use the hand of the lord to eradicate dissidents. ”

Liu Lan nodded slowly, Mi Zhu thought of his thoughts, his heart moved, and asked: "Zizhong knows more about the Danyang Army than I do, and this Danyang Army has always been obedient to Cao Bao and Zhenrong or has it become a separate force?" ”

Mi Zhu said without thinking: "It has always been Cao Bao and Zhen Rong's obedience. ”

Liu Lan immediately solved the confusion in his heart. Said: "That Zizhong thought there would be another possibility." As he spoke, he stared at Mi Zhu's eyes and said, "Actually, Lu You has been working for Zhenrong. At this time, he pretended to serve me and sent the list of Cao Bao's descendants. After I eradicate Cao Bao and his descendants, he will be able to secretly control the Danyang Army. ”

Mi Zhu broke out in a cold sweat in his heart, but when he calmed down, he felt that Liu Lan's analysis had his unique insight, but it also had its one-sidedness, and said: "Why did Lu You do this in the first place, although he eliminated dissidents, what good did it do to himself?" After all, he and Zhenrong are one in the south and the other in the north. Unless ......" tightened his heart, he completely understood what Liu Lan's words really meant, as if he was standing in the cold wind, his body was full of goosebumps, and he said in a trembling voice: "Unless Zhenrong conspires with him inside and outside Xuzhou, how can it be done?" ”

A hint of murder flashed in Liu Lan's eyes, and he said coldly: "No matter what Lu You's purpose is, there is always one thing that is true, that is, the content of this list is not credible. If this list is full of people that Lu You wants to get rid of, then the generals who are not on the list are definitely his henchmen. ”

Mi Zhu's eyes lit up, and he was greatly admired for his ability to know everything. Hurriedly said: "I don't know how the lord is going to deal with this matter?" ”

"You come here." While Liu Lan was talking, he whispered in Mi Zhu's ear.

"What? Mi Zhu exclaimed in surprise and said, "Lord, let Lu You go to Gong Rong." I'm afraid that Lu You will be gone forever. ”

"What if you let Cao Bao go with you?"

Mi Zhu thought about it, but shook his head. Said: "It's like water, it's hard to take it back." ”

"Haha." Liu Lan smiled noncommittally: "Then let's wait and see." "Received the paper in your arms. said: "Zizhong, come with me to Cao Bao's mansion." ”

A hint of joy flashed in Mi Zhu's eyes, and he praised: "It turns out that the envoy wants to kill two birds with one stone, let them eat dogs?" After speaking, he couldn't help but high-five and praised: "This trick is really wonderful." ”

"Danyang Army?" Liu Lan said confidently: "From this moment on, it is no longer worth mentioning. ”

Cao Bao's study is not as bookish as the literati, but has a strong martial arts atmosphere, there is no qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, just a big bow, a spear hanging on the wall, the low table is made of yellow rosewood, and the bookshelf is not furnished with books, but some Yue kiln porcelain and some jade and bronze, the shape is divided into categories, vivid.

"Father." Cao Yi pushed the door in, these days his family was called by Liu Lan: 'Protection' is really imprisoned, such days make him almost crazy, push the door in, and say angrily: "Father, how long will it take for such days to be over?" ”

Cao Bao slowly closed his eyes, he really didn't want to see this unfilial son, but under Cao Yi's questioning, he completely made him angry, and shouted: "What is the noise, it is fortunate to be able to keep the skull on the neck, what are you still making noise here?" ”

"Father, but you didn't say that you just ...... the girl," Tao Yi said with a weak heart.

"Humph!" Cao Bao snorted coldly and said, "Thanks to your brother who joined Lu Bu by chance, otherwise you still want to keep your head?" ”

"But......" Cao Yi just wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Cao Bao and said, "But what is it!" He glanced at this unfortunate son coldly, and snorted: "His Mi family can marry his sister to Liu Lan, but I can also give my little girl to Lu Bu!" ”

At this moment, I only heard the whisper of the people outside the house, "The head of the family, Liu Zhoumu came to visit, and now it has passed the atrium, and it will be there soon!" ”

"Got it, you step back first!" Cao Bao said on his lips, but he was thinking about the purpose of Liu Lan's sudden visit. Just when Cao Bao was thinking hard in his heart, a laugh came from outside the door, and then he saw Liu Lan, Mi Zhu and Xu Chu, who had recovered from his injuries, pushed the door and walked out of the house, and said, "General Cao, don't come to harm!" ”

"Liu Lan!" Cao Yi on the side looked at him angrily, calling his name viciously, as if he wanted to bite him to death.

"Where is there a place for you to talk here, get out of here for the old man." Cao Bao glared at Cao Yi, and said with a smile to Liu Lan: "The last general Cao Bao has seen Liu Yuanjun!" ”

The corners of Liu Lan's mouth drew an arc, looking at the back of Cao Yi leaving, but he thought in his heart that this Cao Bao was not comparable to his stupid son after all, just the performance in front of him really doubted that Cao Bao would agree with Cao Yi to do those things. Thinking about it, he stepped forward and helped Cao Bao up: "General Cao doesn't have to be polite!" ”

"Envoy Liu, please take a seat." Cao Bao got up and said with a smile on his face: "I don't know what happened to Liu Yuanjun's arrival?" ”

Liu Lan waved his hand, did not sit down, stared at him closely, and said after a while: "I came here today just to show you a piece of jewelry." ”

Cao Bao was stared at by Liu Lan's heart, and it took a while to hear him say that he had something to show him, covering up the worry in his heart, pretending to look at him with a puzzled expression, and said quietly: "I don't know what the envoy will let the last general see?" ”

"It's just a list."

Liu Lan casually took out a piece of Caihou paper from his arms, handed it to Cao Bao, and said, "Someone handed me this list today, so I brought it to General Cao to see." ”

Cao Bao heard that he didn't say that he was secretly married to Lu Bu, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and took the paper, just at a glance, the paper seemed to suddenly become more than a thousand catties, so that he could no longer hold the thin paper in his hand, and with a bang, it fell to the ground.

Liu Lan glanced at Cao Bao, but his face was still calm and calm, he squatted down and picked up the paper that recorded Cao Bao's henchmen, and at the moment when Cai Hou's paper returned to Liu Lan's hand, Cao Bao's face suddenly became pale, and the feeling of tightness in his chest made him squirt out a mouthful of black blood, and his mouth was coughing again and again.

Liu Lan looked at Cao Bao with deep meaning, he couldn't be stimulated anymore at this time, otherwise he would really die on this, and comforted: "General Cao doesn't have to be angry, if I intentionally eradicate these people, I won't show them to you!" ”

Lu You, Lu You, I am not thin on you, but I didn't expect you to be ungrateful, I Cao Bao and you are not in the same day! Cao Bao scolded in his heart, although it was only a short moment, but he saw who said this letter, not to mention the familiar notes, even the sycophantic Cao Hong was on the list, but there was only no Lu You, how could he not guess who wrote this letter?

Holding back the anger in his heart, he said, "Since you didn't come for this, you don't know why you came?" ”

"I heard that General Cao and Zhenrong have some enmity, recently Liu is thinking about entering Guangling, wanting to make General Cao take charge of the army, I don't know what General Cao wants?"

"This ......" Cao Bao hesitated, he was completely confused, and he didn't understand what Liu Lan was going to do.

"Don't worry." Liu Lanlang laughed and said, "As long as General Cao can capture Guangling, then I can guarantee that the Cao family will never be touched!" ”

Cao Bao asked in disbelief, "Really." ”

Liu Lan looked at him with burning eyes, nodded heavily, and said, "If General Cao agrees, then I will leave." ”

After speaking, Xiang Mizhu winked meaningfully, and at the same time turned to leave, just walked to the door, suddenly looked back, and said: "By the way, the families of the people above are all in Xuzhou City, right?" ”

Cao Bao was shocked in his heart, only to hear Liu Lan say again: "So General Cao had better not have some unrealistic ideas, otherwise Liu Mou will have to take these people's family sacrifice knives first!" (To be continued.) )
