Seeing Liu Biao's fuss, Yuan Tan and the others were a little disdainful, only Zhang Chao knew it and knew that the goal had been achieved. He endured the smugness in his heart and patted his stomach with a look of surprise. "Jingsheng knows this knife?"

Liu Biao didn't care about Zhang Chao's ridicule, pulled Yuan Tan's sleeve, and the fingers holding the knife quietly tapped the part of the knife. Yuan Tan glanced at it, and his eyes suddenly shrank. There is an inscription on the blade, which is very simple, but the meaning is profound, even serious.

Nanyang, this knife is from Nanyang!

Xin Bi has news sent to Yecheng every few days, Yuan Tan has the opportunity to contact, knowing that Nanyang Tieguan is a mysterious place, Xin Bi spent a lot of thought or can't learn more news, only know that Nanyang Tieguan is presided over by Huang Chengyan, a famous man in Nannan, and has recently made a breakthrough in the iron-smelting process, and the army under Sun Ce is gradually changing its clothes.

Zhang Miao has a deal with Sun Ce!

Yuan Tan was frightened and frightened, and there was some indescribable nervousness. He thought that as long as he lowered his posture and took the initiative to come to Chen Liu to meet him, satisfying Zhang Miao's vanity, Zhang Miao would return the favor and support him vigorously. Unexpectedly, it was a result, Zhang Miao not only did not intend to support him, but even did not hesitate to make a deal with Sun Ce, which meant that he wanted to break the net.

What happened to make Zhang Miao so decisive?

In any case, Chen Liu is not safe, and he must leave as soon as possible. Yuan Tan looked at Zhang Chao and said, "It seems that I came unfortunately, I don't know when Zhang Fujun will come back?" ”

"It shouldn't be too long." Zhang Chao saw Yuan Tan's uneasiness and knew that the goal had been achieved. "My brother left in a hurry, and he didn't have time to inform the envoy, which is really rude. Please wait a few days, and my brother will rush back after taking care of the affairs, and then ask the envoy in person. ”

"Zhang Jun's words are serious." Yuan Tan shook his head politely. "The Black Mountain thieves are attacking Dongjun, and I want to rush to Puyang immediately and organize a counterattack with Zhu Ling. Zhang Jun, when I first came to Guizhou, Xian Kunzhong became good friends with my father again, so I asked Xian Kunzhong in the south. ”

"Please rest assured, as long as my brother has a breath of air, he will ensure that Chen is not lost." Zhang Chao arched his hand and was impassioned.

——

Yuan Tan came in a hurry and returned in disappointment, his face was ugly. He quickly turned around and hurried all the way, until he crossed Jishui and entered Pingqiu County, he breathed a sigh of relief and summoned Liu Biao, Bian Rang and others to discuss the matter.

Liu Biao and Bian Rang were also a little confused. They were completely unable to understand the thinking of the Zhang Miao brothers. Zhang Miao was Yuan Shao's confidant, and he rescued the party members with Yuan Shao back then, contributing money and efforts. When they were courting Dong, it was their brother Zhang Luo who was busy with the front, and Zang Hong, who presided over the Sour Jujube Alliance, was brought by Zhang Chao from Guangling, and most of the food for the army was also provided by Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao. Why did Zhang Miao's attitude suddenly change so much, and he even did not hesitate to collude with Sun Ce?

"In between...... Is there some misunderstanding? Bian Rang looked at Yuan Tan, frowning. Sun Ce is notorious, and if Zhang Miao is really forced to Sun Ce's side, Chen Liu may be in trouble. He is a Chen Liuren, and he can't help but pay attention to it.

Yuan Tan smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Bian Jun, I'm just as confused as you."

Liu Biao thought about it and motioned for Bian Rang not to say any more. He understood Bian Rang's worries, but he also knew that Bian Rang was too worried. "Wenli, even if Zhang Mengzhuo buys Nanyang's weapon, it may not be in collusion with Sun Ce, otherwise we can't sit here at the moment."

Bian Rang said angrily: "Jingsheng, can Sun Ce sell such a sharp weapon to Zhang Mengzhuo?" ”

"Why not?" Liu Biao asked rhetorically: "Even if this knife is sharper and tougher than ordinary knives, it is just a knife." There are only virtuous people living in the world, how can they be powerful people? ”

The side let the opposite lip sneer. "You lost Xiangyang, is it because your virtue is not as good as Sun Ce?"

Liu Biao was annoyed and ashamed, his white skin turned purple, he stood up, shook his sleeves, and sneered: "What Guo Linzong said is not bad, today is considered to be insightful." After speaking, he walked away and hung Yuan Tan, Bian Rang and others in the tent.

Yuan Tan was very embarrassed, and Bian Rang turned pale with anger. Liu Biao's words sound endless, but they are the most merciless humiliation of him. Back then, he once went to visit Guo Linzong with Xie Zhen, a famous man in Runan, thinking that he was a young talent and had a good reputation, and it was reasonable for him to get a good comment from Guo Linzong, and then he would be famous all over the world. Unexpectedly, Guo Linzong was not optimistic about them, and his attitude was very cold. Later, news came out that Guo Linzong told the disciples that he and Xie Zhen were talented, but they did not enter the Tao and their achievements were limited.

This is almost a lifelong regret for Bian Rang, and now he is disobedient to Liu Biao in person, where can he bear it, and he has no celebrity demeanor.

"Meng Mingshi is just a martial artist of the tyrannical Qin, he can still be defeated and fought repeatedly, Liu Jingsheng is ranked among the eight handsome, was he not as good as Meng Mingshi?"

Yuan Tan coughed and hurriedly dissuaded. These two people are celebrities he invited, and they can be called right-hand men, but now they are turning against each other for a trivial matter, and they are really undignified. Bian Rang was angry, thinking that Yuan Tan was biased towards Liu Biao, and he was so angry that he brushed his sleeves away.

The atmosphere in the big tent was even more embarrassing, and Yuan Tan was also very angry, but he couldn't have a seizure, so he had to squeeze out a smile and say to Don't Drive Wang Yu: "What do Don't Drive teach me?" ”

Wang Yu stroked his beard, thought for a while, bowed down and said, "Envoy, Yu is dull, and he has no plan for a while. However, Yu can recommend a person, who may be able to help you. ”

"Don't drive, please speak."

"Cheng Yu, who is a disdainful county, can decide big things. If you can pay homage to him, you will definitely be beneficial. ”

Yuan Tan thought about it. "Is it Cheng Yu who persuaded Liu Yuanjun to break off his friendship with Gongsun Zhan?"

"Exactly."

"That's great, where is he?"

"In Dong'a."

Yuan Tan was a little disappointed. "It's hard to quench your thirst in the far water, who else has a plan, please speak freely."

At this time, a person stood up in the corner and arched his hand at Yuan Tan. "The contemptible Pingqiu Ling Xiao Ran, there is also someone to recommend."

Yuan Tan hurriedly straightened up and greeted Xiao Ran. "Please Xiao Ling come forward and speak."

Xiao Ran walked out and came to Yuan Tan. He was Pingqiu Ling, and he rushed to meet Yuan Tan, but his reputation was weak and his status was poor, so he didn't dare to sit at the same table with Bian Rang, Liu Biao and other celebrities, so he could only sit in the corner. Seize the opportunity at this moment, and naturally let Yuan Tan see it clearly.

"There is a scholar in the county, surnamed Mao Ruju, the word filial piety, not only honest and fair, but also has a big mind, which can help the king plan."

Wang Yu was a little unhappy and lowered his eyelids. He is a state driver, an important assistant to Yuan Tan, and it is his duty to recommend talents to Yuan Tan. What is the origin of this Xiao Ran, he actually wants to grab a piece of the pie. "Mao Jue? How I haven't heard the name. Where is he now, and where does he live? ”

Xiao Ran knew that Wang Yu was unhappy, so he hurriedly turned around and saluted Wang Yu. "Go back and don't drive, Mao Jue is outside the camp, he is the county magistrate of this county."

"The Ming court can take a scholar as a leader, which shows that the Ming court is quite popular with the people of Pingqiu." Wang Yu laughed indifferently: "Failing to recommend it to the envoy in time, I am very derelict in my duty." ”

Yuan Tan had a headache. There are many talents, but it is also troublesome, no one speaks when solving the problem, but when the wind is fighting, one is braver than the other.
