Compared with the chickens and dogs in Jizhou, Yan and Henan are very calm.

Because Cao Cao had already implemented the tuntian system, therefore, in terms of grain requisition, it was natural that those soldiers could be directly handed over and directly transported to the front line. And the part of Mintun, although it is also like Jizhou, the county soldiers are responsible for supervising the grain and levying Ding, but Xun Yu first posted a list to tell the people, and then the county government and the county government collected it, and strictly ordered not to rob and disturb the people, and those who violate the order will not be pardoned.

Therefore, although the entire Yan and Henan prefectures are also densely populated with the atmosphere of imminent war, the entire people's will is still stable and the order is acceptable. And those subordinates of the Cao family, although their hearts were heavy, no one complained, silently took the warrants issued by Xun Yu, and was busy where they should be.

I still remember that when Cao Cao led the army to Guandu, everyone bowed down and swore an oath together. The ministers expressed their willingness to follow Cao Gong and serve the country loyally - Cao Gong must repay the kindness of the encounter, as for the Han family, just shout.

Every time he thought of that scene, Xun Yu's heart was inexplicably sad. But in the next second, he was overwhelmed by the huge and complicated matters, and he was too busy to think. And the only belief that supports him is that Cao Cao is not there, he is the supreme guardian of the entire Xu Capital, and no one will be allowed to threaten it.

Xun Yu is not only Cao Cao's right-hand man in politics, but also the Shangshu order of the imperial court. This dual identity made Xun Yu set a heavy goal in his heart: he wanted to share Cao Cao's worries, but also ensure the dignity of the imperial court.

Shaking his head a little tiredly, Xun Yu expelled these irrelevant thoughts from his mind, picked up the brush again, and sighed with his mouth that he was still a wolf who had not escaped the fate of being frozen, and continued to deal with government affairs.

Cao Cao's army is now on the way to Guandu, and the work of pacifying Xu Du and even the entire rear falls on his shoulders. Documents from all over the world flew into his small Shangshutai like snowflakes, and almost every one of them was stamped with the symbol of "urgent report", and he had to make decisions instead of Cao Cao—this is a trust, but also a heavy responsibility.

What's more, the emperor is seriously ill, and he has already passed the edict without seeing the foreign ministers, and many court requests and proposals have to be forwarded by him.

"The world is in chaos, and the state affairs are not over........" After Xun Yu was busy for a while, he rubbed his sore eyes, turned the oil lamp on a brighter, and tightened the big fur wrapped around his body. Staying up late for several days in a row made this humble gentleman with a face like a gentle jade look haggard, subtle wrinkles quietly grew between the corners of his eyes and forehead, and the long black hair hung down under his chin, which was slightly curled.

However, it was at this time that as soon as he looked up, he found that he didn't know when, the ghost-like drama Zhicai had come to him at some point. His face was calm and motionless, like a sculpture: "Cao Gong is gone, and those royal factions, after losing Cao Gong's deterrence, have begun to move again." ”

"Isn't it just stealing beams and changing pillars and getting more than 2,500 soldiers?" Xun Yu was slightly stunned, and then spoke.

If any of Dong Cheng's subordinates were here, they would definitely be frightened by Xun Yu's understatement: it turned out that the clever plan they thought they didn't know and ghosts didn't know had already been seen through by Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai!

"Just for the sake of Your Majesty's safety, you can be a little too sensitive." Xun Yu motioned for Xi Zhicai to sit down, pulled his thoughts out of those official documents, and spoke.

"Don't speak for them, you know, they have long regarded you as a traitor in their hearts." Xi Zhicai grinned and seemed to smile. However, he didn't refuse Xun Yu's invitation, and after sitting next to Xun Yu, he continued: "I just can't understand, why do you defend those beam-jumping clowns like that? ”

Xun Yu heard Xi Zhicai say this, and knew that the concepts of the two could not be said together at all. So he smiled, shook his head silently, and said no more.

Seeing Xun Yu like this, Xi Zhicai did not continue the topic. After taking out a piece of information from his bosom and handing it to Xun Yu, he spoke again: "However, this time they have played a lot of tricks, Ming Gong is now reorganizing his army to fight, and the entire Yanzhou has not long been recovered, it is the rear of Ming Gong who relies on the war, and its importance does not need me to say more, you can weigh it yourself." ”

After saying this, Xi Zhicai got up and wanted to leave, but Xun Yu stopped him, took the information and said, "Is this information accurate?" ”

Xi Zhicai glanced back at Xun Yu, although he stopped, he did not answer Xun Yu's question. He knew that Xun Yu would understand his silent acquiescence.

Sure enough, Xun Yu slowly led the letter to the oil lamp, watched the letter turn to ashes in the firelight, and said leisurely: "This time, they really played big." Looks like I'm going to make a move. ”

"Yes, it can be seen from this letter that there must be some big man standing behind them. Now that Cao Gong is outside, they can't bear the loneliness, just so that they can jump out one by one......." Xi Zhicai said without any emotion, waiting for Xun Yu's reply.

"You mean to let the tiger go back to the mountain?"

"In other words, it is right to release the birds to their nests, only then can we get their eggs........"

"yes, I see." Xun Yu stared at Xi Zhicai with a complicated mood for a while, and then said slowly: "I will be able to distinguish the priorities, as for the proportion, I need your cooperation." After all, Duke Cao still needs the banner of the royal family. ”

"I understand."

Xun Yu nodded, and no longer had any intention of official business: he knew that Xi Zhicai was best at finding seven inches, and he was never willing to focus on proportion. He is like a poisonous snake, always biting the opponent's vital point at the sharpest angle, and then injecting the lethal venom into it.

Xun Yu has seen it more than once, and he can't talk about liking or disgusting - in the political field, it has always been suppressed and suppressed. Although it is extremely measured, for those who are not able to measure themselves, the drama is not that idle.

And Xi Zhicai also silently withdrew from Shangshutai at this time, and the two ended the conversation as usual. There are some things Xun Yu didn't ask, and Xi Zhicai didn't mention it, and the two of them tacitly focused on the topic in the void, without further discussion and analysis: Xi Zhi knew that Xun Yu's loyalty was not entirely on Cao Gong, so he didn't want some things to be spread out on the bright side, but Xi Zhicai was different.

After he returned to his Jing'an Cao, he sat down quietly and issued several orders. Subsequently, he unfolded the letter and wrote a letter to Cao Cao - as he was only responsible to Cao Cao, he did not feel that this was a betrayal. Because, the content of his pen is very measured. He has always made Xun Yu think that he doesn't understand.

And at the same time, too often in the house.

A bright-eyed maid entered the room and silently cleaned up the paperwork on the desk for Yang Biao. Most of those documents were useless ancient precepts, and the maid simply put them aside. Suddenly, the whole table looked a lot more concise and refreshing. Then, a plate of tea sets was brought to Yang Biao.

"The old man likes a clever woman like you the most, and he always knows the priority." Yang Biao took the maid's tea set and started the daily kung fu tea leisurely.

He really liked this girl's way of cultivating himself and cultivating his temperament very much, and he said while making tea: "Seeing that you are also Yunying's unmarried person, if you don't dislike dogs, are you willing to recognize me as a father-in-law?" ”

"Thank you Yang Lao for your love, but it's a pity that Xiaomi doesn't have that blessing." Tang Xiaomiyan politely rejected Yang Biao's proposal, she already knew that this old man said that to every maid, and the maids in the entire Yang Mansion were all his daughters-in-law.

Yang Biao didn't think it was a pestle, and was about to open his mouth to persuade him again, but he heard Tang Mi say again: "The lord, there is news." ”

Yang Biao's hand stopped slightly, but he didn't splash half a cent of tea, and glanced at Tang Xiaomi indifferently and said, "He is your lord, not mine." But what did he say this time? ”

"The lord said that there has been a fight in Hanzhong, and there will be chaos in the Kanto region. He has no temperament, waiting to see Yuan Shao and Cao Cao fight for a few years........"
