Chapter 100: Xiao He's Peerless Insight!
Xiang Bo's mansion is not big, only three entrances. This is just a place for Xiang Bo to stay temporarily, and after Xiang Yu divides the world, he still has to go back.
Naturally, Xiang Bo, who has always liked luxury, has no intention of building a high-gate mansion.
This point has to start with Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu, as the general of the alliance of princes, is the king of the world this time, and his mansion is only three entrances.
Xiang Bo, as the right commander of the Chu State, has no power but power, and this power still comes from Xiang Yu. Therefore, Xiang Bo restrained his nature.
The first entry into the mansion is for the exclusive use of guests. The second entry is the residence of Xiang Bo. The last one is a small garden of about one acre, with a small thatched house courtyard next to it.
Since Xiang Bo was alone and had no one to live at home, he was naturally clean and quiet.
Zhang Liang followed the elders of his family and stepped into the small courtyard. Except for Xiang Bo, no one has been able to set foot here. Naturally, it became a place for Xiang Bo to meet important guests.
The courtyard is not large, with an old mulberry tree in the middle and five poplars on each side. There are more than a dozen thatched huts on three sides, and a high bluestone wall without doors around it, separating the courtyard from the outside world.
β¦β¦
Walking to the door, the old man smiled at Zhang Liang: "Mr. is at his own convenience, and the right Ling Yin is in the courtyard." He turned around and walked away.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Liang was slightly stunned. Obviously, all this was arranged by Xiang Bo, Zhang Liangzheng felt funny, and a slight sound of footsteps gradually became clear.
"Brother Zifang, you are really here!"
Zhang Liangjin bowed deeply at the stone gate and said, "Uncle Xiang, Zhang Liang is disturbed!" β
Everything that happened at the banquet that day was not happy. But Zhang Liang knew that after Pei Gong Liu Ji left, what would inevitably happen.
Otherwise, Xiang Bo would not have revealed that Xiang Yu sealed Liu Ji in Liaodong!
β¦β¦
Xiang Bo glanced at Zhang Liang and arched his head: "Uncle Xiang is sluggish, forgive me in the ovary!" β
"The humble house is simple, inside the ovaryβplease!" As he spoke, he turned around and walked under a poplar tree in the sunny part of the courtyard.
At this time, there were already two maids sweeping the fallen leaves, laying a seat to make tea, the weather in early spring was still a little cold, the carbon fire was rising, and there was a faint warmth.
"Uncle Xiang, when did you change to tea?" Zhang Liang smiled faintly, and sat down without waiting for Uncle Xiang to do it.
"The ovary is here to find Uncle Xiang, I don't know why?" Xiang Bo sighed, then laughed again.
Zhang Liang smiled and said, "Uncle Xiang, between you and me, Ming people don't say secret words. There are 2,000 taels of gold and 20 liters of pearls, which are the care of Uncle Xiang at the banquet. β
"Haha......"
laughed, and Xiang Bo showed a trace of bitterness on his face: "Ovary, the old man knows why you came from." It's just that the old man and Xiang Yu have a complete falling out, I'm afraid I can't help you! β
"Moreover, the division of Pei Gong and Liaodong, Naiya's father Fan Zeng insisted, and the general agreed, this is an impossible fact!"
Hearing this, Zhang Liang's heart sank, and he knew that this matter could not be turned around.
"Uncle Xiang, since it is no longer possible to turn around, it is difficult to change. I also ask Uncle Xiang to take care of Pei Gong's one or two, and the right Beiping is close to Liaoxi! β
"If Pei Gong is willing to live in Beiping on the right and lead Liaodong. Can you ask Uncle Xiang to ask the general to give the right Beiping to Pei Gong? β
In desperation, Zhang Liang could only retreat. Only by expanding the territory can Pei Gong Liu Ji have the opportunity to enter the Central Plains. What's more, two thousand taels of gold and twenty liters of pearls cannot be given away for nothing.
"Good!"
Shooting the case, Xiang Bo's eyes flashed with a touch of determination: "The old man doesn't want to let go of the old face, go for Pei Gong!" Don't forget the appointment of the day! β
Xiang Bo was very optimistic about Liu Ji, and he was obviously serious about the verbal appointment of his children's in-laws that day.
"Haha......" laughed, Zhang Liang arched his hand and said, "Brother Xiang's matter, Zhang Liang has neglected anything!" β
β¦β¦
Xiang Bohao attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and he regards Zhang Liang as a friend of life and death. Since the banquet, he and Liu Ji have made a verbal appointment to marry their children, and they regard themselves as Liu Ji's protector and have always taken care of Liu Ji.
Xiang Bo is short-sighted and greedy for small profits, Liu Ji respects him as a brother, and asks to marry his children, and he is very useful in his heart.
And Zhang Liang personally brought a lot of gold and treasures, and Xiang Bo also felt that he deserved it.
In addition to this, the reason why Xiang Bo agreed to Zhang Liang was because he was in the same boat as his father Fan.
At the banquet, Fan Zeng instructed Xiang Zhuang to dance the sword and be sure to kill Liu Ji. He resolutely objected, and did not hesitate to jump out and draw his sword to help, and even stabbed Xiang Zhuang, causing Xiang Yu to be furious.
And this time, the matter of discussing the division of the seal was presided over by Fan Zeng, the father of the second father, in person, but he didn't even have a chance to be next to him.
Xiang Bo knew that the rift between him and Fan Zeng had arisen, and it was impossible to resolve it, so he could only go to the black.
β¦β¦
He really didn't think much of Fan Zeng's harsh plan to block Liu Ji in Liaodong, and this time he sent a message to Zhang Liang to show favor to Liu Ji.
At the same time, in order to protect Liu Ji again, he killed Fan Zeng's aggressive momentum. Let the people of the world know that he is the second power position in the world below Xiang Yu, above Fan Zeng, and second.
Because of this, Xiang Bo agreed to Zhang Liang's request! This strategy of killing birds with one stone is a decision that Xiang Bo has been thinking about for a long time.
β¦β¦
Liu Jijun's camp!
β¦β¦
"Pei Gong, there is no change in the matter of dividing Liaodong. In Xiayang, he begged Xiang Bo to ask the general to seal the right Beiping...... "Zhang Liang came to Liu Ji's camp with a somewhat lonely expression.
β¦β¦
"Xiang Yu'er, you deceive people too much!" With a roar, Liu Ji shouted and said, "Fan Xu immediately purge the three armies, Lao Tzu wants to fight with Xiang Yu to break the net!" β
When the news came, Liu Ji was humiliated for a while, sad and desperate. Under impulse, he was ready to take risks, planning to use his army to sneak attack Xiang Yu and break the net.
"Pei Gong, no!" His cronies Fan Hao and others grabbed Liu Ji and stopped his impulsiveness.
β¦β¦
At this moment, Liu Ji had quieted down. But he is still in despair and cannot extricate himself, and he is lost and silent.
At this time, Xiao He stood up and said: "The three counties of Wang Liaodong, although they are hateful and hateful, they are still a good way out compared to seeking death and destroying themselves. β
Hearing this, Liu Ji was a little touched: "It's better to find a way out than to die, how can you say this?" β
Xiao He bowed solemnly and said: "In terms of the strength of the army, it is impossible for us to confront Xiang Yu at all, once there is a conflict, it can be said that we will be defeated in a hundred battles, what is this not seeking death?" β
"Historically, King Shang Tang and King Wen of Zhou. are able to submit to others for a while, and finally be able to convince others. β
"The last general thought that Pei Gong could take them as an example and follow Mr. Zifang's arrangement, first of all, please get Youbeiping, and take Youbeiping as the foundation of the royal industry."
"Raise the people and recruit talents, and then collect the material and manpower of Liaodong and Liaoxi, and go south to the Central Plains, such a major event in the world, there may not be no chance to overturn it and start over!"
