Now the situation of the Kwantung princes is roughly divided into two factions, one faction is represented by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Biao are Yuan Shao's younger brothers, and only Yuan Shao is the leader. (Of course, it was only temporary, and when Cao Cao became stronger, he no longer took Yuan Shao in his eyes.) ）

The other faction, represented by Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan and Tao Qian are Yuan Shu's younger brothers.

Yuan Shu learned that Cao Cao had sent Xiahou Yuan, and secretly sneered in his heart, "Cao Mengde, you are really self-conscious, you haven't wiped your butt clean, you want to meddle with my affairs, it's just looking for death." ”

Yuan Shu immediately wrote to Gongsun Chan and Tao Qian, asking them to send troops to put pressure on Cao Cao, Gongsun Chan and Tao Qian, although they would not send troops to help Yuan Shu fight, but they were still very good at doing it, Gongsun Chan ordered that Tian Kai should be stationed on the plain, and Liu Bei would advance into Gaotang and pose a posture of going south; Tao Qian also sent people to increase troops on the border between Yanzhou and Xuzhou.

In the romance, Tao Qian is an honest man and a bad person, but in fact, he is not only not afraid of Cao Cao, but also dares to take the initiative to provoke.

When they were young, Tao Qian and Cao Cao were almost out of the same place, idle, debauched and uninhibited all day long, and they were a 'problem child' who gave the family a headache.

At the age of 14, Tao Qian still didn't know how to restrain, he was recognized as the king of children, Cangwu Taishou Gangong saw Tao Qian on the way out, and was attracted by his very good looks, so he decided to marry his daughter to Tao Qian.

Gan Gong's wife was very dissatisfied and said that she would not agree to anything, but Gan Gong thought that Liu Biao was extraordinary in appearance and would become a great weapon in the future.

Gan Gong has a unique vision, and like Lu Gong, who is optimistic about Liu Bang, he has made accurate predictions. Gan Gong promised his daughter to Tao Qian, and Lu Gong promised his daughter Lu Pheasant to Liu Bang.

Under the guidance of Gan Gong, Tao Qian began to study hard, and the trajectory of his life began to change.

He did the county order of Shu County (that is, the place where Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao were captured), Shu County was under the jurisdiction of Lujiang County, and the Lujiang Taishou at that time was Zhang Pan, and Tao Qian's father was a good friend, but Tao Qian looked down on him, and never met Zhang Pan with private matters, once, Zhang Pan invited him to a banquet, during the banquet Zhang Pan let Tao Qian dance, Tao Qian was forced to have no way, and just a few random gestures.

Zhang Pan asked him, "Does this dance not turn?" ”

Tao Qian said in an arrogant tone, "I can't turn, and if I turn, I will win people." ”

Zhang Pan was greatly displeased, and since then the two have a disagreement, and later Zhang Pan wanted to find Tao Qian's fault and wanted to rectify him, but Tao Qian was an honest official, and it was difficult to find a handle, and then Tao Qian simply abandoned the official and left in style.

After that, Tao Qian did the history of Youzhou Assassination, with Huangfu Songping rebelled against Xiqiang, crusaded against Bian Zhang Hansui, and repeatedly made military exploits, which was deeply used.

However, his arrogant temper never relented, and at a celebration banquet, he severely humiliated Sikong Zhang Wen.

Zhang Wen, who had a mild temperament, couldn't bear it, so he went to the court and exiled Tao Qian, and was later persuaded by everyone to intercede for Tao Qian many times, and Zhang Wen agreed to transfer Tao Qian back.

After coming back, the officials persuaded Tao Qian one after another and asked him to apologize to Zhang Wen in person, but Tao Qian still didn't take Zhang Wen in his eyes, and when he saw Zhang Wen, he was still very arrogant, "Humility thanks the court, how can it be for the public!" ”

The implication is that the court has pardoned me, and I am only grateful to the court and do not owe you any favors.

After that, Tao Qian was ordered to go to Xuzhou to ask for the Yellow Turban, Tao Qian dared to be outstanding, very strategic, after taking office, he quickly pacified the Yellow Turban who was making trouble in Xuzhou, the same is the Yellow Turban, Tao Qian and Kong Rong are simply worlds apart.

It's a pity that Tao Qian loves fame and fame, and does not reuse the talents in the territory, only treats them as vases, and likes sycophants, which makes Xuzhou very unstable.

Xu Zijiang took refuge in Xuzhou, and Tao Qian treated him well at first, but it didn't take long for Xu Zijiang to stay anymore.

Xu Zijiang is extremely accurate in looking at people, and once commented on Cao Cao as "a capable minister who rules the world, and a hero in troubled times!" ”

He said Tao Qian, "Tao Gongzu admires fame outside, but he doesn't really love talent, although he treats me thickly, his potential will be thin in the future, so it is better to go to other places." ”

Xu Zijiang left without hesitation and defected to Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou.

In a word, Xu Zijiang killed many celebrities who took refuge, Tao Qian, at the instigation of the villain.

What's even more despicable is that Que Xuan made a rebellion and claimed to be the Son of Heaven, Tao Qian did not go to quell the rebellion, but cooperated with Que Xuan.

Although they agreed to cooperate, but about sending troops, Liu Biao and Kuai Yue were not in a hurry to express their position, Zhao Yun knew very well in his heart, not only Liu Biao, any prince, would have this problem, everyone has selfishness, although Yuan Shao agreed very happily, but so far Zhao Yun has not seen Jizhou send a single soldier, Liu Biao, obviously not a bold and generous person.

"It's not early, let's discuss the specific matter tomorrow."

Kuai Yue smiled and said goodbye and left, Zhao Yun just wanted to get out of the city, and Mrs. Cai, who had been silent, spoke, "General Zhao, since you are here, how can we be lazy, it's so late, and it's not convenient to go to the pavilion, so why don't you live here." ”

Saying that, without waiting for Zhao Yun to refuse, Mrs. Cai called Cai Zhong over, "You go down immediately to prepare, don't wait for General Zhao." ”

Zhao Yun wanted to decline, but Cai Zhong had already agreed to go out to make arrangements, so Zhao Yun had no choice but to nod at Liu Biao and Mrs. Cai, and reluctantly agreed.

Cai Zhong arranged Zhao Yun in the east wing, Zhao Yun had just lay down, and suddenly there was a slight sound of footsteps outside, Zhao Yunteng sat up, got up and pushed the door open, there was no one outside, but there was an extra note in front of the door.

Zhao Yun picked it up and glanced at it hurriedly, "I'm waiting for you in the Lotus Pavilion!" ”

The Lotus Pavilion was not far from the room where Zhao Yun lived, and when Cai Zhong brought him here, Zhao Yun happened to pass by the Lotus Pavilion.

The handwriting is beautiful, revealing the fat powder of a woman, how smart Zhao Yun is, with just one glance, she guessed that this must have been written by Mrs. Cai to herself.

Zhao Yun glanced in the direction of the Lotus Pavilion, shook his head, turned around and went back to the room, fell asleep, and ignored Mrs. Cai's invitation.

After Mrs. Cai sent Liu Biao to sleep, she came to the Lotus Pavilion, since she saw Zhao Yun, she was full of spring, Zhao Yun compared with Liu Biao, no matter in any aspect, it is an absolute advantage of crushing.

Mrs. Cai is very scheming, he knows that Zhao Yun wants Liu Biao to send troops, and this is something that Mrs. Cai can easily handle by just moving her lips.

Mrs. Cai deliberately took her subordinates and maids away, and wanted to say a few 'whispers' to Zhao Yun, but she didn't expect that she couldn't wait for the left, and she didn't come to the right, and after half an hour, Mrs. Cai walked towards Zhao Yun, and saw that the light in Zhao Yun's room had been extinguished, and Mrs. Cai stomped her feet angrily.

After thinking about it, Mrs. Cai gritted her teeth and walked straight towards Zhao Yun.
