In fact, according to common sense, Guo Bin, as the Yingchuan Taishou of 2,000 stones, as long as he releases the news, it is not rude to sit back and wait for Zhu Fu to come to the door, because the assassin is supposed to supervise high-ranking officials with low-ranking officials. Zhu Fu has not been in the officialdom for a long time, and he has been stained with the light of Zhu Jun, the general of the right chariot, so his official rank is only 600 stones.

But after all, this is in Jiaozhou, in Zhu Fu's land, and the counties of Jiaozhou are bound to face him. Because Zhu Fu has the future of the county guards in his hands, they will be officials for a long time, so they have to make friends with Zhu Fu. If Guo Bin is too arrogant and rude, and Zhu Fu makes his face look bad, it is also an insult to the guards in Jiaozhou, and he will offend people unconsciously.

Besides, Guo Bin, as the parent official of Yingchuan Taishou and the shepherd, should not leave without authorization, if he waits for Zhu Fu to come to see him like this, it will be really too arrogant. Since Guo Bin wanted to see Zhu Fu as soon as possible to determine his attitude towards Lin Yi, what if he simply lowered his status and went to visit? Anyway, it is not a shame to meet the history of 600 stone thorns with a county guard of 2,000 stones.

Tao Yuanming in the Eastern Jin Dynasty did not bend his waist for five buckets of rice and refused to meet the young and domineering superintendent, because he had already seen the world thoroughly and had no pursuit. Guo Bin is different, he is burdened with a heavy responsibility, not only the people of Fulong Villa and Guojiazhuang are pressing on him, but now the entire Yangzhai County and even Yingchuan County are watching him, he has been moving forward with a heavy load, where is the room for hypocrisy?

In fact, it is quite taboo for Zhu Fu to have a relationship with Guo Bin, the Yingchuan Taishou. One of the two sides is a supervisor sent by the imperial court to supervise the administration of a state, and the other is a local powerful person who holds military power.

Fortunately, Zhu Fu is the assassin of Jiaozhou, and Guo Bin is the Taishou of Yingchuan County, and the two sides are far away from each other, and they can't reach the boundary at all; Besides, Jiaozhou is thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, and the imperial court's control over this place is extremely weak, and the warriors of Linyi are there in a hurry, where can they take care of these messes?

However, Zhu Fu is obviously not a fool, he knows the difference in status between the two sides, so he did not accept the post in a big way, but sent someone to Shifu early the next morning to return Guo Bin's post. The subordinate who talked was also very clever, and Guan Yu, who received the post, said: "My lord wanted to come to the mansion to meet Guo Yuanjun in person, but he was entangled in mundane affairs, and he really couldn't get out." My lord said that he didn't dare to accept Guo Yuanjun's post, and he ordered the small one to return it. Speaking of words, it is obvious that he has memorized these words well in advance.

It was from nine to eleven o'clock in the morning, so early the next morning, Guo Bin took Guan Zhang and the others to Zhu Fufu's mansion. Zhu Fu came to the gate early, opened the middle door to greet him, gave Guo Bin enough face, and saw that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei couldn't stop nodding, and the good impression of this Zhu Fu in his heart naturally doubled.

Guo Bin has been in the officialdom for so long, so he will naturally say something about the scene, at least when facing Zhu Fu, there is no stage fright.

Speaking of which, although Guo Bin had a little unpleasant trouble with Zhu Jun, Zhu Jun also took the original matter to heart, but the two sides still cooperated after all. Guo Bin's resettlement method for the Yellow Turban is a good strategy for several parties to benefit, and Zhu Jun is also one of the beneficiaries of the establishment of the three cities outside the Saiwai. The method used by Guo Bin is his consistent style, and that is to share benefits. Whether it is Huangfu Song or Zhu Jun, they have their own land in the three cities outside the Saiwai, and this land, which was not valued by the two at the beginning, is now building a large-scale storage base, which has continuously sent income to the two families.

In officialdom, the relationship between superiors and subordinates is highly valued, but this subordinate refers to subordinate officials, that is, subordinate officials who are promoted by superiors. If you use an analogy, such as Zhu Jun and Sun Jian, such as Huangfu Song and Yan Zhong, and Guo Bin and Xu Shu, etc., are all so close that people can see them as one.

However, although Guo Bin was not personally promoted by Zhu Jun, the two sides have worked together for a period of time, and there is a love affair. Therefore, when he meets Zhu Fu now, he is a little less embarrassed than strangers, at least on the surface, he is indeed a harmonious and happy group.

After the greetings, Guo Bin went straight to the point and said: "In the next south, there was something else to do, but I happened to hear the news that the Linyi warriors were coming to Jiaozhou to make trouble, so I thought about staying, and I could help a little bit." I think Brother Zhu has already gotten the news, right? ”

Zhu Fu listened to Guo Bin's words, his face was also solemn, and he pondered for a moment and said: "In the lower body, as the assassin of Jiaozhou, the responsibility is to be the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven and the imperial court, how can I not know about the affairs of Linyi?" Now that the new army is recruited, in addition to appeasing the place, and even when there is something in the imperial court, you can lead the army to serve the king in an emergency, but it is not a matter of this Linyi? ”

Seeing that Guo Bin listened carefully, Zhu Fu was extremely satisfied, and continued: "Since the founding of the country, Lin Yi has not only disobeyed the control of the imperial court, refused to pay tribute, but also repeatedly sent troops and ships to plunder the fishermen of Jiaozhou. Many people died at sea, and many fishermen did not even dare to go to sea. Zhu is a state assassin, how can he not be worried when he sees this situation? He ordered the collection of grain in the city, recruited an army with training, and even ordered people to build large warships, so that one day he could destroy the Linyi Kingdom and restore the old appearance of southern Xinjiang for the Han court. Ma Fubowei's reputation is still there, how dare Zhu not take the hero as an example and work hard? ”

Although there are quite strong words in these words, there is a heroic spirit of their own, and the two Guan and Zhang who are standing on the side are very enthusiastic, and they can't wait to immediately lead the army into the city and pull the king of Linyi to Luoyang to confess. Although Zhu Fu was talking to Guo Bin, he was also secretly observing Guan and Zhang, these two people were brave and good at fighting tigers at a glance, how could they not attract attention? Now seeing the expressions of the two, Zhu Fu is extremely satisfied.

However, Guo Bin listened to it, but secretly noticed it. It is said that the two sides are not subordinate to each other, and Guo Bin is not a messenger sent by the imperial court to inquire about Zhu Fu, but why did he want to explain these plans and plates? He led his troops to surround Zhu Jun's tent, although it was forced by the situation, it really had a very bad impact on the army, and it is conceivable that Zhu Jun's prestige was damaged because of this. Since the two sides have a problem, this meeting can ensure that they can explore each other's intentions in a friendly and harmonious environment, which is rare. Guo Bin came here, the ultimate goal was just to touch Zhu Fu's attitude towards Lin Yiguo, but where did he think that he only said one sentence and told the news to the convenience?

The so-called abnormality of things is a demon, does this Zhu Fu have other appeals? But now at least we can know that this Zhu Fu is consistent with himself in his attitude towards Lin Yiguo, so that things save a lot of trouble, and let Guo Bin's hanging heart let go of half.

At that moment, Guo Bin said movingly: "Brother Zhu is ambitious and people-oriented, Guo admires it!" As for the matter of forming an army to defend against foreign insults, it is a model for our generation. He said with a deep sigh.

Seeing Guo Bin behaving like this, Zhu Fu was extremely anxious in his heart. This Guo Qianyang is the Western Imperial Huns, the brave warrior who broke Xianbei in the north and dared to step on the 200,000 Yellow Turbans in 600 parts! If he had helped me this time, things would have gone much better!

Therefore, Zhu Fu said very heartily: "After I organize and train the new army, if I want to directly attack the city, can Qianyang help me?" ”

Guo Bin was shocked in his heart, it was difficult to understand that Shi Cai had a good chat, why did this Zhu Fu suddenly go so deep? Is there any trap that can't be achieved? The nature of taking the initiative to attack a foreign country is completely different from defending the territory and resisting, and at worst this matter is a vain provocation, and at a large scale, it is a self-respecting army and a conspiracy against the enemy. His brain was running rapidly: Could it be that Zhu Jun didn't want it? Or is this Zhu Fu the history of Jiaozhou Assassin and got the secret edict of Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven? This speculation was immediately rejected by him.

Because although Zhu Jun is indeed experienced in military affairs, and he has also won several battles in the later stage of quelling the Yellow Turban Rebellion, this person has always been a literati, and he has a lot of scholarly anger in his bones. Therefore, he is by no means a high-flying and bold master, especially after the first defeat of the Yellow Turban at the hands of Bocai, his use of troops is more old-fashioned, and it is by no means a character of a sword that goes sideways.

Since it wasn't Zhu Jun's idea to make this son get ahead, could it be the secret edict of the Son of Heaven? But it's unreasonable to think about it! Now that the first phase of the Yellow Turban Rebellion has just ended, the Taiping Road Rebellion has entered the second stage, that is, the stage of scattering and waiting for an opportunity to rise again. These remnants of the Taiping Dao are scattered all over the Central Plains, and the imperial court does not even have the ability to exterminate them, so how could they suddenly use troops against Lin Yi State? Moreover, now that the Qiang people in the northwest are in turmoil, Huangfu Song, a veteran who has long been respected by the world, will be recalled by the Son of Heaven on the charge of ineffectiveness and waste of money and food, and Dong Zhuo is the former general to resist the rebels of Han Sui and Ma Teng.

It can be said that at this time, the central government has transferred the officers and troops under its direct control, except for a part of the division that left to guard Beijing, to the northwest, how can there be troops to attack Linyi in the south? Besides, the small country of Linyi has been self-reliant since Emperor Shun, and it has been decades since then, Liu Hong wants to fight it, is it a brain convulsion? Moreover, even if it is to win a big victory to boost the morale of the army and the opposition, and to prove that Liu Hong is bright and great as the Son of Heaven, where does the imperial court get the money and food? Since the two possibilities of Zhu Jun's intention and the secret edict of the Son of Heaven can basically be ruled out, then the rest can only be Zhu Fu's wanton behavior.

All this is troublesome to say, but it was only in Guo Bin's mind that he had already figured it out, and said quietly: "Brother Zhu is arrogant, and I admire it below." Guarding the land and defending insults is the duty of my generation as an official, but Brother Zhu is sent, and Guo is duty-bound. ”

Zhu Fu listened, slapped his thigh and said, "Okay!" Qianyang is really a hero! When the other day is completed, Zhu will definitely write to the court to show the great merit of the hidden sun! ”

Guo Bin listened, although his face remained unchanged, the impression of this Zhu Fu in his heart fell all the way to the bottom.
