Early in the morning of the second day, Liu Lan opened his eyes slightly, and there was still the moving beauty of yesterday beside him, and with a slight sweep, he saw that the beautiful woman was dressing up before dressing, and while smiling slightly, he was tilting his back to look at the little red, until this moment Liu Lan still couldn't believe his eyes, Mi Zhen was still perfect.

He didn't believe that Cao Yi was a eunuch, and he didn't believe that Mi Zhen was cheating, so there was only one explanation, maybe that day before Guan Yu went to save Mi Zhen, that Cao Yi didn't succeed, and then the rumors in Xuzhou were more like Cao Bao's helpless move, thinking about this, Liu Lan got off the bed lightly and walked behind Mi Zhen.

In fact, Guan Yu said vaguely, because of Mi Zhen's reputation, Mi Zhen didn't know the truth, and Zhao Yu helped him put on his clothes, after all, in ancient times, women only had to go to see the bottom of the box on the night of marriage, plus Cao Yi released a rumor that he occupied her body, this matter was spread in Xuzhou, that is, Mi Zhen had to believe it, and he didn't want to make a mistake but fulfilled Liu Lan!

Mi Zhen, who was dressed, saw Liu Lan without a trace through the bronze mirror, his cheeks were slightly red, and he said shyly: "Xianggong is careful of catching a cold, you wait first, and wait for the slave family to change clothes for Xianggong later." ”

Looking at Mi Zhen who had changed to a high bridle in front of her, she turned her head and suddenly made his eyes light up while she was lightly swept away, and her lower body couldn't help but be a little ready to move, wrapped her slender neck like snow from behind, and whispered in his ear: "..."

"What?" Mi Zhen exclaimed in surprise, and he couldn't care about Liu Lannai's naked body at this time, and said in shock: "What Xianggong said is true? At the end of the speech, he said in a low voice: "Don't make fun of Zhen'er." ”

"How could I joke with you about such a thing?"

Liu Lan said very seriously, but at the same time, he whispered in Mi Zhen's ear: "It seems that I still have to thank that Grand Master Cao, otherwise how could a proud girl like you marry me Liu Lan?" As he spoke, he bit Mi Zhen's earlobe. Slowly move from the earlobe down the neck.

Liu Lan's lust for months can be let go, how can he still control it. As soon as he left Mi Zhen's neck, he hurriedly picked him up by the waist. Walking towards the edge of the couch, but before he moved, he saw Mi Zhen, who was holding Liu Lan's neck with both hands, panting and saying, "Xianggong, no, no, there is something to do today." ”

"Anything could be more important than this." Liu Lan replied casually, but at the same time, he ignored him and walked towards the edge of the couch.

Mi Zhen pouted and said, "Yesterday, my sister sent a maid to say: 'The bride will enter the house, and she will need to offer tea to her sister in the future. ”

"Huh?" Liu Lan looked at Mi Zhen in disbelief, and knew that the 'sister' in her mouth was Zhen Jiang without thinking about it. Secretly said: "Could it be that there was a saying about offering tea in the Han Dynasty?" Liu Lan nodded, only to hear Mi Zhen continue: "It seems that my sister wants to give Zhen'er a dismissal." At the end of the words, there was a trace of disbelief.

"It's not appropriate to use Ma Wei, it's just that she wants me to see it, and she wants you to understand that she is the eldest lady of the Liu family, after all, she still has the final say in the affairs of this inner house, so I won't mix it."

As he spoke, he put Mi Zhen down, and thought regretfully: "It seems that I will only come to clean up this delicate little lady at night." ”

After accompanying Mi Zhen to offer tea, Liu Lan walked straight to the mansion and just entered the yamen. When he was far away, he saw Jian Yong and shouted, "Xianhe, I have something important for you to go." ”

"What stumped my lord?" Jian Yong asked.

"You and I talk as we go."

Liu Lan and Jian Yong thought about the mansion and walked over, and said as they walked: "In addition to Taozhou Mu, Shijia, and Danyang Army, Xuzhou also has another ...... forces."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Jian Yong say: "The lord is talking about Zang Ba of Kaiyang?" ”

"Yes. This is the person. ”

Liu Lan said solemnly: "At this time, the Xuzhou family has fully supported me, and the Danyang army is divided into two, so it is no longer worrying. So now it depends on the attitude of this person. ”

"So the lord wants to make Xianhe go?" Jian Yong immediately understood Liu Lan's plan.

"Exactly."

Liu Lan nodded and said, "I want to know that Zang Ba is also interested in Xuzhou?" still wants to guard Kaiyang's one-third of an acre. Saying this, he looked at Jian Yong with burning eyes. said: "So this matter can only be done by Lao Xianhe personally to find out what this person really thinks." ”

"It's as simple as that?" Jian Yong looked at Liu Lan playfully. Said: "If it's just for this, the lord won't come in person, right?" "Jian Yong knows Liu Lan's personality too well, if it is not an important matter, then this matter will only be raised in every routine meeting, if Liu Lan comes to the door in person, then this matter will never be a trivial matter.

"Those who know me are also constitutional." Liu Lan said with a smile: "The most important thing is to let Xianhe go and see if he can take Zang Ba for his own use, if he can take it for his own use, it will be a big help." ”

"I'm afraid it's going to be difficult." Jian Yong shook his head slightly and said: "I don't know anything about this person, let alone know each other, if I know each other, I may be able to persuade one or two, if I go this time and make a rash proposal, I'm afraid the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Liu Lan nodded and agreed: "I didn't think of what Xianhe said, so I handed over this matter to Xianhe." ”

Jian Yong realized at this time: "I understand what the lord means." ”

"It's good to understand, as long as you build a good relationship first, even if he doesn't want to for the time being, as long as he can be used by me in the future." said this, but looked at Jian Yong with a thoughtful look, and said, "When the time comes, Xian and you will be a great contribution." ”

"The lord is gracious." Jian Yong smiled: "I just don't know when to go?" ”

"The sooner the better, only by stabilizing the external instability factors in Xuzhou as soon as possible, can we take this as the foundation to develop around."

"Kenwa knows."

~~~~~~~~

Zang Ba is tall and strong, a pair of bright eyes seem to be able to penetrate people's hearts, his jaw bones are taller than ordinary people, and his angular lips and jaw are covered with a beard like steel needles, judging from his face, he is at least in his forties, in fact, he is only in his early thirties this year.

He has such an old face since he was very young, it can be said that he has not changed his appearance for more than ten years, and he is pacing in the room at this time, although the yellow scarf in Qingzhou is not as fierce as before, but he still does not dare to relax a little, although there are only 10,000 people under his command. But the number of troops actually under control has remained at 30,000, and it is no longer a secret in Xuzhou.

But Tao Qian, as always, only allocated him 10,000 people of grain and grass. But the rest of the grain and grass had to be raised by himself, if it was on weekdays. The 20,000 people's food and grass can barely be maintained by the encouragement of a county, but now it is different from the past, since Cao Cao's large-scale invasion of Xuzhou, such a self-sufficient equilibrium has been completely broken.

He wrote to Tao Qian many times to ask for food, but the letter seemed to sink into the sea, and there was no news.

Zang Ba's face sank. He shouted, "Call him in." ”

After a while, Jian Yong raised his head and chest, stepped into the tent with a chic temperament, his face was calm and calm, without a trace of nervousness, he looked at Zang Ba with a smile, and smiled and saluted.

"I have no friendship with Liu Lan, what is the so-called thing that he sent you here this time?" Zang Ba came to the living room and sat down, and looked at Jian Yong who was looking down and said.

Jian Yong didn't seem to hear what the boss Zang Ba said, but he just looked left and right and said, "This Kaiyang is really a good place. ”

"Huh." Who is Zang Ba? Where can I not hear the meaning of Jian Yong's words, and snorted coldly: "I also heard that Xiaopei is also a good place in Kaiyang, and I have the opportunity to go around in a fixed place." ”

"I think my lord will be waiting for the general." Jian Yong replied calmly, but sighed slightly: "I'm afraid that General Zang won't have a chance." ”

"Whether there is a chance to know for yourself. And why do you need to take advantage of your tongue at this time? ”

Zang Ba regretted it as soon as he said it, as if he was really afraid of him Liu Deran couldn't do it, and sneered: "But I can let you be in a different place before that day comes, do you know?" ”

Jian was convinced. Saying that, Jian Yong said firmly: "But I believe that the general will never kill me." It doesn't have to be served with wine. ”

Zang Ba's expression was cold, and he snorted: "Do you really think that the sword in someone's hand is just an accessory for you and other literati?" As he spoke, he unsheathed the sword from his waist. It's really like a cold light.

"Haha." Jian Yong laughed presumptuously: "I believe that the general's sword is a murderous sword rather than an accessory, but if the general insists on killing him." Then the state of the present day will be the future of the general. ”

"What a good tooth." Zang Ba looked at Jian Yong at the bottom, and the anger that he had been trying to restrain finally broke out and said, "Then I want to see if he Liu Lan has the ability to take Zang's head." Speaking of this, he walked towards Jian Yong.

As if he didn't see Zang Ba walking towards him at all, Jian Yong sat in front of Zang Ba, who was already angry, until the moment when the sword was added, he only heard him laugh and said: "It seems that the general has misunderstood, and the person who will take the general's head at that time is not my father-in-law, but Taozhou Mu." ”

Jian Yong looked at the sword that was about to behead him out of the corner of his eye, and he was already in a cold sweat in his heart, but at the moment when the sword was about to arrive, he saw that the sword with the sound of breaking the air suddenly stopped, and Zang Ba was even more stunned, looked at him with a sneer and said, "Shaft, Hugh is doing a plan to sow discord in front of Zang." ”

"Is it sowing discord, doesn't the general know?" Jian Yong contended with each other: "Could it be that the general still doesn't dare to face it directly?" ”

"What am I afraid to face?" Zang Ba said with three points of weakness and three points of difference.

"General, the whole of Xuzhou knows about it, is it possible that only the general you don't know?"

Jian Yong stood up, smiled at the tip of Zang Ba's sword, and said, "Tao Xuzhou only allocated this little money and grain for the general, doesn't the general know about it?" ”

"Hmph." Zang Ba straightened up the sword in his hand, so that he could behead Jian Yong at the first time, and sneered: "Zang only has more than 10,000 people, and Taozhou Mu naturally allocates according to the quota, so why not?" ”

"Haha." Jian Yong smiled and said, "I thought that General Zang was a true hero who had a deep understanding of the current situation, but I didn't want to be a reckless man who deceived himself. ”

"The vertical son insults me in every way, and today he will take the dog's head from you." As he spoke, Zang Ba raised his sword again.

"The general is determined to kill me, and it is not too late to listen to my words and kill again."

After speaking, Jian Yong saw that Zang Ba's sword momentum had decreased sharply, and he knew in his heart that Zang Ba was angry at this time, and he really showed his head to the public, and when the time came, not only did the lord's task not be completed, but he also took his life in vain, although he was anxious, like an ant on a hot pot, but on the surface, he was calm, and he said abnormally: "How many people in Xuzhou don't know that General Zang recruited 20,000 county soldiers privately in order to resist the Yellow Turban?" ”

This was originally a good deed of the general to protect the land and the people, but why did Tao Zhoumu not ask the general for recruiting troops privately, nor ordering the general to disband the private army, but turned a deaf ear? Didn't the general think about it? ”

"Maybe Tao Zhoumu doesn't know about this...... Zang Ba said subconsciously, but even he didn't believe in this, although he didn't believe that Tao Qian would deal with him, but he still wanted to hear what this Jian Yong was going to say, only in this way could he know the real purpose of Liu Lan sending him this time.

"I don't believe the general can't see it." Jian Yong looked at Zang Ba with a smile, as if everything was under his control, and continued: "Originally, Tao Qian made General Zang stationed in Kaiyang was a helpless move, how could he be willing to use this as a basis for development and growth? ”

"It's hard to hear, but it's true." Zang Ba nodded, but said again: "But you said one thing wrong, stationing in Kaiyang was not Tao Qian's helpless move, it should be said that he did it on purpose." Speaking of this, he sighed: "Maybe in the eyes of these clans, a small person like me is nothing at all, and he doesn't want me to grow, and he doesn't want Xuzhou to be disturbed by the Yellow Turban, so he uses me to drag the Yellow Turban." When he said this, he smiled abruptly and said, "Maybe it's also the yellow scarf to drag me, after all, only in this way will I not threaten him." ”

"Hey." Jian Yong sighed and said: "At this time, Taozhou Mu is getting older, and at this time, the emperor is out of control, so he naturally has to think about his descendants, so if Taozhou Mu wants to make his son Tao Shang succeed to the throne smoothly, the first person to deal with will naturally be General Zang." ”

"Haha." Zang Ba shook his head and smiled: "What a pair of sharp teeth, I am almost deceived by you." When he said this, he smiled and said: "I don't think it's me Zang Ba who has to worry about it, but Liu Lan who is close to Xiaopei." ”

"If according to common sense, what General Zang said is true, but General Zang doesn't know the inside story, and the clan of Xuzhou is all owned by my lord at this time."

"What?" Zang Ba was shocked in his heart, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a 'dang', and his heart was sad, and it was difficult to accomplish a big thing.

Looking at Zang Ba's dejected appearance, Jian Yong smiled and said: "General, I said that not only will you not kill me, but you will also entertain me with the best wine, I wonder if Jian can say wrong?" ”

Zang Ba nodded and said with a smile: "What you said is right, I will not only bring the best wine to entertain, but also the best dishes and beauties." ”

After speaking, he looked at Jian Yong and said, "I don't know what your lord wants me?" ”

"Now that the situation in Xuzhou is gradually becoming clearer, my lord just wants to know which side the general will be on?" Jian Yong stroked his beard and smiled.

"What if I don't pick either side?" Zang Ba flashed many thoughts in an instant, but in the end, he looked at Jian Yongdao expressionlessly.

"Does the general think he can leave the world alone?" Jian Yong sighed and said: "My lord came to Yongyan and said that the general is a true man who is unparalleled in the world, if he can recruit the best, if he can't recruit it, he can't make it difficult, as long as the general doesn't express his stance or slightly supports when the lord is competing for Xuzhou Mu." ”

"It's not impossible to support it a little, but Xuangao also has a condition."

"Although I don't know what the general's conditions are, my lord once said that as long as General Zang supports him, after my lord enters Xuzhou, the general will not need to worry about the money and food of the 30,000 people."

"Is that all?" Zang Ba's face changed.

"That's all, and these are the words that my lord can't give the general a written promise for the time being, although it is verbal, but he will definitely keep it in the future, even if there is a literal promise, if the lord doesn't admit it, the general is helpless, I don't know if the general thinks it?"

Zang Ba looked at him and talked about him, knowing that Liu Lan would not make any more concessions, but it was already the best result to be able to keep the military power, so he smiled bitterly and said, "You go back and tell Liu Lan, I won't help anyone at that time!" (To be continued.) )
