Chapter 284

"God, what's going on, a few days ago, I was full of sun, and people were dizzy, how did I become like this today..."Looking at the gloomy sky overhead, and the cold wind that suddenly blew up for some reason, Zhang Yu, who was standing in front of the gate of the State Pastoral Mansion, couldn't help but curse. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

Originally, Cao Cao withdrew from the army, and Xuzhou turned the corner to safety, which is the time when everyone should celebrate, and the follow-up development seems to be the same. I don't dare to say that the wind and rain are smooth, at least there are a few sunny days, as if to sweep away the haze of the front time. Although the weather is a little hotter and sunny, the people are also happy when they think of the feeling of a catastrophe not long ago.

Who knew that it had only been a few days before this kind of ghost weather came. Those successful people are okay, but they are great and don't go out at home, anyway, they have experienced a lot of such things, and it is not bad this time. But Zhang Yu and they are different, as the guards of the state pastor's mansion, they have no way to hide in to keep warm, even if it is cold outside, they can only stand here, and they can only suffer directly, which is really painful.

Just when these guards were almost dripping tears from the wind, a crisp sound of horses' hooves suddenly came, just along with the cold wind, clearly reaching the ears of these guards.

Hearing this voice, the faces of the guards changed, and they quickly straightened their waists and made a majestic appearance without squinting, but while doing so, they couldn't help but glance in the direction where the voice came from. After a while, dozens of riders appeared at the end of the street.

In this kind of ghost weather, there are few people who will choose to go out, not to mention that this is still in front of the gate of the state pastor's mansion. Although Tao Qian was not so domineering as not to let the people pass in front of the state pastor's mansion, the people still instinctively avoided this place, especially in this weather, it was even less pitiful to the extreme, only three or two sporadically.

Originally, they were also enduring the cold wind and wanted to go home early, but now when they met this large group of men and horses, they hid by the wall when they saw the burly and majestic knights on horseback. Looking at the knights who came to the gate of the state governor's mansion, they whispered one after another.

"Where did this come from, could it be the general's headquarters soldiers..."

"Please, how many days have you not been out? How could I have such majestic soldiers and horses in Xuzhou? These are all people from the Qingzhou Army, and I'm afraid they're here to visit Tao Fujun this time..."

Compared with those ordinary people, Zhang Yu and they have a better understanding of the situation. Although he lamented a little why the relationship between the two families was so bad, he hurriedly walked over and greeted him. "Envoys, generals, Tao Mansion has been waiting in the mansion for a long time..."

Yan Shao was not a person who liked to put on a show, let alone Zhao Yun or Guan Hai. In the past, when I came to this state governor's mansion, even if I ran into the samurai in the mansion, I would smile and nod my head as a courtesy, but this time I just snorted coldly and ignored it.

The knights who followed behind Yan Shao followed behind one by one, obviously planning to follow Yan Shao into the state pastor's mansion. Noticing this, the guards behind Zhang Yu were shocked and wanted to step forward to stop them, but they were stopped by Zhang Yu and several other team leaders.

As a person in the governor's office, I have some understanding of the recent situation, and I know that the relationship between Qingzhou and Xuzhou has not been harmonious recently, and now is not the time for conflict. And the government has already explained this matter, so there is no need to do more things that should not be done.

It's just that...

Looking at Yan Shao and his entourage, Zhang Yu's expression was a little worried.

The performance of the Qingzhou Army has confirmed one point, that is, the rumors that came out not long ago are not false, and the fragile relationship between the Qingzhou Army and Xuzhou is only afraid that it will really not be maintained this time, otherwise Yan Shao would not even follow such a little superficial etiquette.

The only thing he could do was to send someone to lead Yan Shao into the mansion, which was to send another person to report the news to the mansion, so that the people in the mansion could prepare early.

As for other things?

It's really not up to him to decide...

―――――――――― dividing line――――――――――――

Perhaps Tao Qian also knows what this visit means, he has been lying on the hospital bed in the past, and he rarely got up from the bed. The more high-status ones in Xuzhou also arrived one by one, such as Chen Deng, Mi Zhu, Cao Bao and even Cao Hong, etc., and none of them were left behind.

Tao Qian himself even took some medicinal decoction in advance to make himself more energetic. It's just that the atmosphere in the room is a little dignified, everyone is silent, there is no sound at all, this atmosphere is also infected to the people in the room, and they don't dare to make a sound, for fear that they will disturb those adults, and they are even more afraid that these adults will be angry with themselves.

"Fu Jun, Yan Qingzhou, they have arrived..."

Just as Tao Qian was taking care of the subordinates around him and drank a cup of medicinal soup, a housekeeper in the house ran in from outside and bowed to Tao Qian.

"Oh?" Hearing the news, everyone present looked over, and then looked at Tao Qian who was sitting on the upper seat.

Although Tao Qian was a little incompetent, he had sat in the position of state pastor for many years, and he only said lightly when he heard the words. "Invite him in..."

"Yesβ€”" The butler nodded, and turned and ran out again.

A group of people below Tao Qian also stood up from their seats one after another. Tao Qian said that he was seriously ill, so it didn't matter if he didn't go out to greet him, but if they followed him motionlessly, it would inevitably seem a little too rude.

Although the relationship between Qingzhou and Xuzhou has reached an extremely tense point now, it is basically almost a little bit to turn their faces, but in the end, they haven't turned their faces yet, have they?

Looking at everyone rushing out of the room, Tao Qian sighed softly, but didn't say anything.

After a while, I saw that Yan Shao had already walked in from outside with Zhao Yun, Gan Ning and others, and those armor soldiers who were carrying them were left outside. As I said before, after all, I haven't completely torn my face...

"Envoy, if you are far away, please atone for your sins, atonement for your sins!"

Seeing Yan Shao leading a group of people over, Mi Fang and the others hurriedly bowed their hands.

Yan Shao also replied. "How dare you..."

"Tao Fujun is inconvenient, and now he is waiting inside, envoy, please go in with us first..."

Yan Shao also understood this very well, and was not surprised, but also made a gesture of please.

The group soon walked into the hall, and at the same time saw Tao Qian sitting on it. I have to say that compared with the previous meeting, this meeting is somewhat embarrassing. Fortunately, the so-called politicians, the most important thing is a cheek, and Yan Shao and Tao Qian are more or less members of the politicians, even if they are thinking about something in their hearts, they can still barely maintain it on their faces.

As soon as he saw Tao Qian, Yan Shao had already made a statement of concern. "How is the health of the prince, I haven't come to visit for a few days, and please don't blame the monarch..."

"How dare you do this..."Tao Qian coughed lightly and said slowly. Fu first led the troops to save Xuzhou, so that the people would not be in the fire and water, such a great kindness and great virtue I will never forget, how can we reverse the priority..."

"Wherever it is, this is all righteousness..."At this time, Yan Shao didn't mind bragging about himself. Cao Mengde went perverse and slaughtered Xuzhou, such atrocities are indignant, even if the other princes sit idly by, it is absolutely impossible for Yan to ignore them..."

Saying this, Yan Shao was fine, but Chen Deng or Mi Zhu on the other side couldn't help blushing, and heard the meaning of Yan Shao's words.

When Cao Cao led his troops to attack Xuzhou, almost none of the princes in the world wanted to help, even Yuan Shu, who was an ally―――――― well, it's not that he didn't help, but it was just not reliable enough, and he hadn't reached Xiapi yet, and he had been driven away by Cao Cao.

At this time, Yan Shao led the troops from Qingzhou, which was very rare.

In this case, are Tao Qian and others in Xuzhou embarrassed to repay their debts?

―――――――――― Dividing Line――――――――――

Yan Shao's words actually contained a touch of irony.

If Xuzhou is willing to fulfill his promise, of course Yan Shao doesn't mind continuing to maintain the previous alliance with Xuzhou, but since Xuzhou doesn't mind, what does Yan Shao have to care about? Don't let this fragile relationship go...

As for Tao Qian, they could only cough extremely awkwardly at this time...

"Speaking of which, at this time, Cao Cao has withdrawn from the army, Xuzhou has turned from danger to safety, and there is no need for Shao here. A few days ago, news came from Qingzhou, Yuan Tan is leading Jizhou soldiers and horses to cause frequent friction with me in the plains, and at this time I am continuing to rush back from Xuzhou to sit in the town, I am afraid that it will not be long before Shao will leave..."

As he spoke, Yan Shao looked at Tao Qian and the others present.

"Before leaving, Shao had to ask, I don't know when you promised when you were in Qingzhou will be fulfilled?"

"If you are in difficulty, Shao is not the kind of person who is difficult for a strong man, even if you send food in batches..."

"This..."Mi Zhu smiled bitterly, and at this time almost everyone's eyes turned to him. Obviously, they had discussed it not long ago, and if Yan Shao really asked about it, he would be responsible for answering. One is because he has the best relationship with Yan Shao, at least in the past, and the other is that Mi Zhu, as the helmsman of the Mi family, is known for his long sleeves, and it is most appropriate for him to speak at this time...

"Envoy, I'm afraid there are some difficulties in this matter...", a little difficult, Mi Zhu said.

This answer was not unexpected, and almost all the generals behind Yan Shao showed anger, but Yan Shao himself pretended to be curious and asked. "I don't know what's the difficulty?"

Not to mention Yan Shao's sneer in his heart for the time being, Mi Zhu replied with a wry smile. "Since Cao Cao invaded Xuzhou, almost ten rooms and nine empty counties along the way, such atrocities are naturally the anger of people and gods, but Xuzhou has also suffered a lot of losses because of this..."

"Right now, taking advantage of Cao Cao's retreat, many people have begun to return to their hometowns, but where should the food for their return to their hometowns come from? My lord is unwilling to break his promise, but let the people of Xuzhou starve because of this, and even the wilderness of violent corpses, this is something my lord absolutely cannot allow, so..."

Therefore, naturally I can only treat Yan Shao badly...

Now that the words have been spoken, Yan Shao is no longer hiding like he did just now, and he said directly when he heard the words.

"Zizhong, it's not that I'm embarrassed for you, but that this was originally a promise you made, and now you're breaking your promise?"

En, I'm sorry, I'll make it up right away, mainly because it's troublesome to find an Internet cafΓ© today, and I don't let it turn on before 12 o'clock, and I finally found one...
