Zheng Lin was trained in the court, and of course he couldn't argue with Su Jun, but Su Zigao also knew this, so he refused to let Zheng Lin quote the scriptures and cross-examine himself. After saying a few words, he immediately stood up and ordered the guests to be sent off.

Zheng Lin came out of the account in a trance, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "Those who are bad for the world are such people, who talk about the teachings of the saints and plot their own selfishness. Pity the people of Donglai, the scourge of the soldiers will not be extinguished. But he couldn't think about it, and he couldn't really do what Su Jun said, "Go to Guanggu first and persuade Cao Wei to return to the Jin family...... Cao Wei is willing to listen to himself, will the war continue to this day?

He originally thought that Cao Wei was a pure bandit, and he was stupid, but Ju Peng was willing to listen to himself, but it was a pity that he was held hostage by the people of Donglai County, and resolutely refused to surrender to Cao; Su Jun is not only a scholar, but also has always been respectful to himself, so he should be able to easily persuade - as long as Su Jun is willing to quit the army, he will have a reason to go to Guanggu again. It's a pity that Su Zigao is now a big name - it is said that even Dong Wenbo's new compilation of "Surname Chronicles" actually pulled the Su family from Donglaiye County into the family wall, and it happened to be ranked the 100th - selfishness is also heavy, and he can't listen to his golden and jade words at all......

In desperation, he had to leave Mixiang and set off to return to Donglai.

But Zheng Lin didn't plan to go to Guanggu to lobby Cao Wei, Su Jun turned his face, but he couldn't help but worry about this matter - what if Cao Wei listened to the old man's words and really repented and returned to Jin? The imperial court must still let him be the assassin of Qingzhou-if he is not ordered to Qingzhou, but he will not surrender - then the Chengyang County I just won, will it be impossible to give it up? And with Ju Peng's temperament, maybe I will take the opportunity to persuade the county people to welcome Cao Jun into Donglai, then I will not be able to return to my hometown until the Year of the Monkey?

Today's situation is clearly unfavorable to Cao Wei, and the repeated villain may not have the heart to return to Jin, but he has betrayed him once before, and Pei Gong definitely doesn't believe him. But Pei Gong has returned to Yu Luo, the Son of Heaven, and there may not be any foolish people in the court, so in order to reject Shile, he will think of letting Cao Wei go...... Mr. Zheng is a great Confucian, and his reputation is not only resounding in Qingzhou, but also can definitely affect the Central Plains.

No, you can't let Cao Wei return to Jin!

Immediately summoned his cronies, whispered in his ears, and so, and so, and so.

The cronies were ordered to go, and rode a fast horse to catch up with Zheng Lin, saying that the general of my family was excited for a while, and he was disrespectful to Mr., and asked Mr. not to take it too seriously, and now I will give the money of the ancestral road three hundred ......

Zheng Lin raised his head and said proudly: "If you don't follow my good words, why should you feel guilty?" Money is gone. But as soon as he turned around, several soldiers pounced on him, tied Zheng Lin and several of his servants with ropes, tied them with large stones, and sank them into the glue......

came back to report to Su Jun, what did Su Jun hear, did you sink him into glue? The glue is in the east of Mixiang, so he plans to go back to Donglai, not to go to Guanggu to lobby Cao Wei...... That's it, no matter where he goes, sink and sink! Then he said angrily: "What he said, you and the others also heard it?" ”

A few of our cronies said yes, and we heard about it both inside and outside the tent.

Su Jun asked: "Then these people, confusing Huayi's distinction, want me to make an alliance with Cao Wei, and you say, should you kill or not?" ”

Everyone said: "This person reads the book of sages in vain, his knowledge is far inferior to that of a general, and he violates the teachings of the Grand Governor - naturally he should be killed!" ”

Su Jun nodded first, then his face changed, and he instructed: "However, he is a great Confucian in Qingzhou after all, and he is used to inciting people's hearts. Therefore, though he should be killed, thou shalt not divulge the matter, but if he is killed on the way back. ”

All bowed down to receive the commandment.

After solving Zheng Lin, Su Jun held Ju Peng's letter in his hand, lingered in the tent for a long time, and began to have a headache again - where should I go?

Ju Peng handed over such a big piece of fat from Donglai County to the front, and if God didn't take it, he would be blamed. If I can return to my hometown, with the hatred of the Donglai people for Cao Wei, I believe that I can recruit tens of thousands of troops in ten days! These troops are dedicated to guarding the township, and they may not be able to run far with me, but if they say that they will fight Guanggu, they will definitely follow. With this army of soldiers and horses, I can run rampant in Qingzhou, even if Cao Wei is completely wiped out within a year or two, it is no longer a fantasy.

However, if I go to Donglai, I will make room for the other side to go back, and Cao's army, which is stationed between Pingshou and Yingling, can stride south and recapture Chengyang County. Although I lost Chengyang, I gained Donglai, which was not a loss, but if Chengyang was lost, Cao Jun could enter the East China Sea and Langya...... With the 3,000 people under Xi Jian, as well as the few county soldiers of Bian Envoy, he will definitely not be able to stop it.

It is a trivial matter for Xuzhou to lose a few counties, if it is a big county, how can I explain it to the governor? The governor of the capital sent me to the east, not to capture Qingzhou, but to protect Xu Fang, but I went to take Donglai County myself, but I lost most of Xuzhou, no matter how you calculate, it is impossible to atone the credit!

Even if we don't take into account the thunderous wrath of the Grand Governor, after all, it is too far away, and I still have the possibility of salvaging the situation - the veterans of Xuzhou, the main force of our army, will surely resent me because of this. No matter how brave the Donglai soldiers are, no matter how brave they are, no matter how they have a grudge against Cao Wei, and then they are fellow villagers, after all, they are new, and they are not trained, with such 20,000 soldiers, I will not exchange 2,000 Xuzhou veterans!

And if Chengyang and even Donghai and Langya are lost, I will be alone in Donglai, and there will be a lack of response, and the situation may not be better than Shao Xu in Hebei. Will there really be the strength to attack Guanggu at that time? Won't be like Ju Peng, but will be pressed and beaten by Cao Wei, right?

But...... If such a good opportunity is missed, who knows if Ju Peng will change his mind and refuse to give Donglai to me again in the future? When the people of Donglai saw that I was approaching with my troops, but they didn't dare to enter the county, would they complain about me? What should I do......

——————————

Let's not mention Su Jun's hesitation, and say that Wen Qiao went south on Liu Kun's order, first went to Shao Xu to say that Shao Xu was anyway, and then went south to Dongguan, meeting Xi Jian - he didn't go to Su Jun, he just looked down on that martial artist - and then turned to the west, successively visited Xu Gong, Huan Xuan and others, and under the escort of their troops, they successfully arrived in Luoyang.

In Luoyang, he first met the Son of Heaven, and then talked earnestly with Zu Ti, Xun Group, Liang Fen and other people in power. Zu Ti said that if Liu Sikong could join forces with Duan Xianbei and go south to attack Jizhou, the imperial court would naturally be happy to see it, however, this time was not very good, Henan had a bad harvest last year, Yan and Yu were only ordinary years, plus repairing Luoyang and returning to the east, etc., the material loss was very large, and it was really difficult to send a large army to respond - "Waiting for thousands of people, but trying to scratch the back of the slaves, so that they did not dare to resist Liu Sikong with all their might......"

However, Xuzhou has sufficient grain, although Pei should have pulled all the main forces to Guanzhong, it is reported that Su Jun has re-summoned nearly 10,000 people on Gonglai Mountain, then-"If Su Zigao is willing to send troops north to attack Cao Wei, he will have no worries, or he can echo Qing and others." ”

Wen Qiao begged: "In this way, I hope that the imperial court will issue an edict and order Su Zigao to lead the division north." ”

Zu Ti nodded, and said Of course this is okay, it's just-"Duke Pei stayed in Chang'an, Taiwan, and Su was ordered by him, if Duke Pei agreed, Su Zigao would not dare to disobey his order." The implication is that it is not enough for the imperial court to give an order, Su Jun can find all kinds of reasons to prevaricate, unless Pei Gai also gives him an order at the same time.

Not to mention the troubled times, even in peacetime, there is the so-called "will be outside, the king's order is not affected", Su Jun is in Dongguan, far away from Luoyang, so according to the specific situation, delaying or even disobeying the orders of the imperial court is not a big crime - as long as you don't act like yin and honestly make up some reasons, send someone to Luoyang to fight a lawsuit. Therefore, in this regard, Zu Ti, Xun Group and others were helpless, so they suggested that Wen Qiao go to Chang'an again.

Wen Taizhen sighed, and said in his heart that I was the life of running errands, last time I came out of Jinyang, and ran to Jiangzuo in one breath, this time from Jicheng, and the destination was far away in Guanzhong - almost to beat the world to the right place.

But for the sake of his uncle's career, Wen Qiao had nothing to complain about, so he had to say goodbye to Zu Ti and others and drive into the customs. When he entered Chang'an City, he asked the guards, where might Da Sima be in this Chenguang?

The guard instructed, "Work in the house." ”

Pei Gai originally went to work in Shangshu Province in the small city of Chang'an, and moved back to his mansion when Xun was waiting to give birth. He later pondered, although the name remains in Taiwan, in fact, the shogunate, I should not return to the small city - since Chang'an has been upgraded to Xijing, the palace in the small city is the palace, and it is not suitable for people and ministers to live. And more importantly, it's too inconvenient......

So the Great Sima Mansion was expanded, forming a pattern of front offices and back residences, and the small city of Chang'an was completely vacated, and only ordered people to repair and clean it day and night, in case the Son of Heaven came - of course, Pei should not want Sima Yezhen to come back.

Theoretically, if the world is peaceful, the Son of Heaven can hunt in the west and temporarily live in Beijing; But if there is chaos in the sky today, and you have just returned to Luoyang, why are you going back to Chang'an? Unless he was beaten and fled twice......

Wen Qiao listened to the instructions, and immediately went straight to the Great Sima Mansion and threw an assassination to meet him. Pei should invite him in, talk earnestly, ask Liu Kun about his current situation, and carefully inquire about the situation in Youzhou and Hebei. When Wen Qiao mentioned the matter of sending troops to respond, Pei Cai immediately agreed, saying that I will write Dongguan and order Su Jun to go north - it may not be able to kill all the way to the bank of the Yellow River, but it should not be difficult to tie Cao Wei for the time being.

Wen Taizhen got Pei Gai's promise, and was overjoyed, thanked him again and again, and then quit. But when he went out, he had just boarded the carriage when he suddenly heard someone shouting, "Wen Jun go slowly!" ”

Wen Qiao turned his head and took a look, only to see a person rushing out of the mansion, but he recognized it--he had reported his name in front of Pei Gai just now-it was Hu Yan and Hu Ziyan, who had joined the army. Wen Qiao hurriedly turned around and saluted: "Hu Jun called me, I don't know what's wrong?" ”

Hu Yan panted and said: "It's not me who calls you, it's Pei Gong who summons you to come in and see you again." ”

Wen Qiao couldn't help but wonder, and said in his heart what was going on? I was in front of Pei Gong, everything I had to say was finished, and I also answered all kinds of questions from Pei Gong one by one, why did you call me back in such a hurry? It's such a time in the sky, it's impossible for me to leave Da Sima Mansion and leave Chang'an City directly, what's the urgency that can't wait until tomorrow, I have to order Hu Senjun to chase me out?

But of course he didn't dare to refuse, so he had to reorganize his clothes and follow Hu Yan to re-enter the Great Sima Mansion. On the way, do you know what Da Sima is in a hurry to call me? Hu Yan obviously hesitated for a moment, and then leaned closer, lowered his voice and said: "Jun Cai will go down to the hall, and Guo will sacrifice wine to ......."

Wen Qiao couldn't help frowning, and hurriedly asked, "Who is Guo Saijiu?" ”

The original meaning of "sacrificial wine" was the elder who officiated at the banquet in ancient times, and later extended to mean "supervisor". The Han Dynasty had a doctor's sacrificial wine, which was used in the Jin Dynasty; When the new mang, there was a teacher and friend sacrificial wine, which was not available to the Jin officials; In addition, Cao Cao set up a military division to sacrifice wine, and Guo Jia was appointed as the chief staff at the beginning, and it was also used in later generations.

Theoretically speaking, Pei should not only open the mansion, but of course he could also set up the position of military advisor to sacrifice wine, but Wen Qiao had never heard of it before. So where is this "Guo Sacrifice Wine" sacred, it must be Pei Gong's confidant and important minister - I have done a lot of homework before I came, and I plan that if Pei Gong does not allow Su Jun's Northern Expedition, I will go to the door of his cronies and help persuade him, why is there no impression of "Guo Sacrifice Wine"?

When Hu Yan heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "It's not a real sacrificial wine, it's Guo Jingchun, a close confidant of Pei Gong, because he is in charge of the paperwork and has nothing to do, so there is this honorific title in the mansion." ”

Wen Qiao nodded, and said in his heart that it was Guo Pu...... I have heard of this person, he was a fellow villager of Pei Gong, Zeng Shi Jiangzuo, and won the trust of King Langya (of course, this is just a rumor), and then came to Chang'an with Liu Kui. So he asked: "Guo Jingchun came, what does it have to do with me?" "It's also that I asked a lot just now, which interrupted your words, please continue, why did Guo Pu arrive, and Pei Gong was in a hurry to summon me?

Hu Yan was about to explain, and when he looked up, he was already in front of the hall, so he waved his hand gently: "You are in the court, and you know it." ”

Wen Qiao was puzzled in his heart, and was a little apprehensive, and hurriedly entered the hall after the doorman passed the pass. Raising his eyes slightly, he saw that there was one more person beside Pei Gai, who he had never seen before, with a long body and a jade face, and excellent demeanor, it must be Guo Pu and Guo Jingchun.

Wen Qiao stepped forward to salute, Pei should ask him to sit down, and then turned his head and asked Guo Pu, "How is it?" ”

Since Wen Taizhen came in, Guo Pu's eyes have not blinked, and he has always stared at him, but Wen Qiao is uncomfortable, like a thorn in his back. waited until Pei Cai asked, Guo Pu looked away and glanced at Pei Gai slightly: "What Chen Shicai saw, there is no mistake." ”

Pei Gai seemed taken aback, so he turned to Wen Qiao and introduced him: "This Wu Ji Room Guo Jingchun is also. Wen Qiao hurriedly bowed and saluted.

To tell the truth, Wen Qiao was only seventeen years old when he became a leader, and he became famous for his impeachment of the famous man Yu Yu, and now he joined the army for Sikong Mansion, leading General Jianwei and supervising the forward military, and his position is far from being comparable to Guo Jingchun. But who called Pei to do things, and Guo Pu was his cronies? In front of Pei Gai, how dare Wen Taizhen be arrogant to Guo Jingchun?

After saluting, he turned to Pei Gai and asked, "Pei Gong called Qiao back, I don't know what happened?" Pei Gai didn't answer, but gestured to Guo Pu with his eyes, that means - you can tell it. Guo Pu took a long breath, then looked at Wen Qiao, and said word by word: "Jun went down to the hall in front of him, I entered from the side, and I saw it from afar, and I couldn't help but be stunned - Jun's face has appeared dead, and I don't know it!" ”
