"Over there in Nanyang, there are two more letters here, which were written by Mr. Tian this morning. Find an opportunity to get people out today. This is a family letter, Yingchuan's, just feel free. There are three letters from Youzhou, oh, there are two more from Jizhou here, and they will be sent to Fanyang Fu's house by the way, and then let the Frustrated family transfer it to Fu Gonghe, and he will take care of it. Brothers may need to do some work on the way out, let them bring more money and, this is my private letter, I need to find two people to send it to Zhuo County quickly. Urgently, the kind of eight hundred miles that is expedited. ”

There was a lot of noise outside the camp tent, and inside the camp tent, Liu Zheng was talking to Li Chengzheng about the arrangement of the letter.

Although there is no strict review of sending people to pass on the letters, there will be people who pay attention to who leaves the camp on weekdays, and the amount of letters this time is a lot, which is inevitable for others to speculate, or let people with ulterior motives send people to rob the imitation notes and seal the letters, Tian Feng asked Liu Zheng to take advantage of the competition to send the letters out by the way.

The first batch was sent out when I ran at night last night, and they were all some arrangements for Tian Feng to check and fill in the gaps, such as forming alliances with other people, the flow of information from all sides in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, as well as the adjustment of troops, the transfer of family members, and the recruitment of heroes and bandits from all over the country.

Li Cheng took it one by one, and then also talked about the movements of this night, "I waited for this morning to investigate, and there were many people under the command of other generals who escaped at night last night, and the most were under the command of Zhang Chao, the Taishou of Guangling. The people he invited over were all from Guangling, and when they found an opportunity, they left. Later, many were captured by Guangling Gong Cao Zanghong. Lord, I see that Zang Hong has a good way, those soldiers are ashamed when they meet him, this morning in the military camp has also changed compared to yesterday, there are more military appearances, this person should have some ability. ”

He paused, "Also, the leaders and generals of all parties have also made arrangements according to Mr. Tian's instructions. The several disputes that occurred yesterday can probably show the attitude of some generals, lieutenant generals, and lieutenants towards us. Youzhou is Gongsun Ji's face, he did not send a letter to me, but he deliberately took advantage of the crowd to ask me to tell you, the water in the camp is deep, if it is not necessary, it is better not to be too ostentatious, lest the cavalry captain have to clean up the aftermath for you after coming here This is probably what it means, it is a warning. The other situations are still being sorted out, and I'll let Che Huan rush out and hand it over to you when I go back. ”

"It seems that our brother Ji Kuang is afraid of revealing flaws" Liu Zheng smiled, feeling that there was nothing missing, let Li Cheng go to sleep when he was done, just sat down and drank a sip of water, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the camp tent, and it approached quickly, and then the inquiries of Li Cheng, Che Huan and others sounded, what did Zhao Yun say, causing Li Cheng to shout a few times, as if he was gathering people, Liu Zheng was just about to go out to ask what was going on, Zhao Yun ran in, "Lord, Mr. Tian has been arrested!" ”

Liu Zheng was stunned, and when he asked about the beginning and end, he knew that Tian Feng and Xin Ming were each confined in a camp tent by Zhao Fu, scratched his scalp a few times, and said with a deep smile: "It's this Xin Ming again." ”

Li Cheng had already come in, and said angrily at this time: "Lord, Xin Ming is too deceitful, a certain family has gathered fifty brothers, why don't we just bring someone to rush in and kill him?" ”

"He's slandering, if he kills him, what if Feng Ji also kills Mr. Tian in retaliation? It's not worth it to deal with this kind of person. You go and get busy first, and then you catch up on sleep when you're done. Think about it. Liu Zheng waved his hand, saw Che Huan and Fan A still standing aside, and said with a smile: "Let's all be busy." Commander Che, you find someone to go to the south gate to inform Zhang Qushuai, if the brothers over there know, let them continue to compete, don't worry about here. I have my own plans for this. ”

Li Cheng, Che Huan and the others hesitated for a moment, and then led the order out, Liu Zheng pondered for a moment, held a gun and a sword, and smiled at Zhao Yun: "What do you think?" ”

Zhao Yun was still ashamed that he didn't do a good thing, and he was stunned when he heard this, there were such things in the past, but at this time, the situation was urgent, and he didn't expect Liu Zheng to suddenly ask him this question.

After a while, a thought suddenly flowed in his mind, Zhao Yun looked at Liu Zheng's short hair, "Lord, Yun remembers that you said yesterday that shaving your hair is an excuse, do you really want to shave?" Just because it's too hot? ”

This question has been suppressed in Zhao Yun's mind for a long time, and since he was going to ask it at this time, he didn't pause, he knew that Liu Zheng treated him well, and some words would not be hidden from him.

"Uh, that's an interesting question, I'm afraid I'll do whatever it takes to achieve my end? Or is it "

"No, the lord, the lord, don't misunderstand, Yun was lucky to hear it yesterday, I want to ask to understand that Yun thinks that the Lord Gong must have a deep meaning."

"Where is the deep meaning, to tell you the truth, it was originally because of the hot weather. But then it was the situation at that time that I couldn't make too many choices, so it contributed to this matter. In fact, I was really shaved, and I couldn't bear this long hair in my heart. But the rules are all set by people, not necessarily can't be broken, it seems to be different from ordinary people, but it is actually breaking a shackle, and it may not be clear to you. You're a little uncomfortable, aren't you? Then I won't do it anymore. Come by the rules. ”

Seeing that Liu Zheng was so honest, Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and said with some emotion: "Lord, Yun knows that as long as he does not deviate from the righteousness, he is not inflexible. I think about today's matter, I think this matter involves Dong Zhuo, let's not be too strong, and we have to be like the lord yesterday, overcome rigidity with softness"

Liu Zheng raised his eyebrows.

Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment, and said expectantly: "Didn't the lord say that he had a companion?" Now that he is being harassed, can he come forward? If we continue to fight, I'm really afraid that before Gongsun Duwei arrives, we will already be isolated. ”

Liu Zheng patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder, laughed and went out: "It was a good idea. ”

"Oh" Zhao Yun was a little lost, and he hung his shoulders to follow, and heard Liu Zheng say again: "But as soon as Mr. Tian came, I have many allies now." So, it's about getting all your allies moving. Let's go, let's go find Brother Li again. ”

Zhao Yun looked surprised, and hurriedly nodded and walked quickly.

In the camp tent.

Feng Ji sat in the first seat, a middle-aged staff member stood on the right hand, and in the open space in front of him, Yang Huang trembled and narrated the beginning and end of the matter to Feng Ji. Yang Huang is not stupid, he didn't reveal half a word about instigating Xin Ming to find Min Chun, only said what happened, and also said that there was a festival between Xin Ming and Tian Feng, Feng Ji asked him why Xin Ming went over, and he also explained that it was for the sake of grain and grass.

Yuan Shao's subordinates and subordinates are in charge of their own affairs, and as long as the amount of grain, grass, and armament does not exceed a certain amount, they only need to report here in Fengji to make their own decisions. Feng Ji knew that in private, those generals cooperated with Min Chun's side, some of them wanted more grain and grass to be divided when the time came, and some simply made false reports to profit from them.

This kind of thing happens a lot, Xin Ming is also one of the participants, Feng Ji guessed the possibility of this, and secretly scolded Xin Ming in his heart for going out in person to lose face in order to make a profit, he was an idiot, and then turned away from Yang Huang and looked at the middle-aged staff on the side, "Dong joins the army, it just so happens that you are here, what do you think about this matter?" ”

The middle-aged man named Dong Zhaozi Gongren was in his early thirties, with a decent appearance and a bookish atmosphere, and at this time he arched his hand, "Feng Junshi, Dong thought that the purpose of Xin Zhonglang's trip was definitely not like this." Although Xin Ming was often referred to as a general in the army, he also called himself a general, but like most people, this title was only an honorific title, and his actual position was that of a lieutenant general.

This Dong Zhao has always been quite thoughtful and far-sighted, if he hadn't followed Yuan Shao first, maybe even the position of the military advisor would have to be given to the other party, but at this time, Yuan Shao would keep him here, and he also felt that he could help himself. Hearing that the other party had thought about some more things than himself, Feng Ji felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he also asked, "How can you see it?" ”

"Regarding the matter of grain and grass, Li Xin Zhonglang will definitely arrange it on weekdays. Yesterday, although General Xin Zhonglang's prestige was discredited, it was a matter of grain and grass, and it was absolutely impossible for him to let the same party centrifuge so quickly. Therefore, it will be impossible for Xin Zhonglang to go out injured. If Dong Mou's expectations were not bad, if he didn't know the whereabouts of Tian Yuanhao and waited for an opportunity to take revenge, it was to find Min Beijia. ”

"Don't do anything to find Min" Feng Ji asked halfway, and also thought of the fact that he was going to treat Xin Ming's crimes, plus the matter of Min Chun's snubbing of Liu Zheng early in the morning had also reached his ears, he frowned and said: "You mean, General Xin wants to find trouble with Liu Zheng through Min Chun?" ”

"What the military advisor said is extremely true."

Xin Ming's temperament is known to Feng Ji, but Xin Ming didn't come to him, but wanted to retaliate against Liu Zheng through Min Chun, this thought together, Feng Ji thought that Xin Ming might still want to climb up to Min Chun in order to protect himself, and he didn't trust him at all, and his mood suddenly became even more unhappy.

"First crossed the rules and beat people, insulted Liu Zheng, and then slandered Jizhou celebrities for colluding with Dong Zhuo, this Xin Konghao has such a big grudge against the lord?" Feng Ji said hatefully.

The corners of Dong Zhao's mouth twitched, and he heard Feng Ji ask: "Dong Senjun thinks that this matter should be good?" If Liu Zheng knew about this, he was afraid that he would make trouble again. But Xin Konghao is not a general character. Shall I wait for Bao Xin Kong Hao, or to appease Liu Zheng's anger? ”

Dong Zhao frowned, and arched his hand: "Military advisor, the stake in this matter is not here, but whether Liu Zheng is Dong Zhuo's work." ”

Feng Ji said with an absurd face: "How is it possible." If he had been meticulous, he would have been killed with the Yellow Turban Army a long time ago. Didn't you listen to what he said yesterday? 300,000 Yellow Turban Army, if I cooperate with Dong Zhuoli, where will I have a chance to live. ”

"But if the military teacher believes it, others may not believe it."

Feng Ji looked directly at Dong Zhao when he heard this, and his eyes were sharp.

"Dong just wants to say that you Taishou and Thorn Shi believe that Liu is Dong Zhuo's party naturally, and the most important thing is whether the lord believes or not, Liu is Dong Zhuo's party."

Feng Ji leaned over according to the case table and said solemnly: "What do you think Feng should do?" ”

Dong thought that it was one of the things to report to the lord. Waiting for Liu Zheng to make trouble, and seeing what you Taishou and Thorn Shi do, is the second thing. In addition, we must also prepare for the march. ”

"Huh?"

"In order to prove himself, Liu Zheng may send troops to the west, and there will always be witnesses present."

Feng Ji's eyes lit up, the order he got did not send troops, if he became a witness and opened the first case of sending troops, so that in the future, some people wanted to send troops, and even ordered everyone to send troops to the west, he would have no shame to see Yuan Shao.

Feng Ji greeted the eighteenth generation of Xin Ming's ancestors who caused trouble in his heart, and hesitated: "Can this matter only be investigated by his staff, and then slowly settle the matter?" ”

Dong Zhao's face was solemn, "Military advisor, if you blindly give in, it will make the soldiers under your command feel cold." ”

Feng Ji's face became more and more ugly, Yuan Shao's subordinates are composed of scholars, and they are all attached to Yuan Shao because of their interests, to make it clear, they just don't help their relatives, there is no law and discipline at all, if this matter is not handled well, maybe even he will have to be taken out by Yuan Shao as a scapegoat, although it is impossible to die, but Yuan Shao took it out to please others, Feng Ji is not willing.

He thought for a moment, "Dong joins the army, do you have the best of both worlds, and let the matter be put on hold for the time being?" Everything has to be done when a certain letter is written to the lord, and the lord will make the decision after the lord replies to the letter? ”

Dong Zhao was stunned, and after a while, he asked Feng Ji a few words in detail, and after Feng Ji finished speaking, Dong Zhao said all his thoughts.

So, not long after, Liu Zheng came to the door to find Feng Ji Theory, but was blocked by Dong Zhao, "Liu Gongzi, Feng Junshi occasionally felt a cold last night, and he suddenly fell ill. If you have anything, just talk to Dong directly. joined the army under Dong Zhao and Dong Gongren, and met Liu Gongzi. ”

Liu Zheng originally had the intention to break in, just to make a big fuss, to see the reaction of the other Taishou assassins, and also said: "Liar the ghost!" Where is there such a coincidence" to hear this person's name clearly, he suddenly closed his mouth, leaned over and looked at Dong Zhao carefully, and when he could see Dong Zhao's attributes clearly, he looked at Dong Zhao, who was above 90 in politics and intelligence, and was a little afraid of annoying Dong Zhao, but he was designed.

Liu Zheng thought for a while, and whispered with a strange expression: "Feng Junshi's idea is a bit clumsy, Dong joined the army and didn't help the staff officer?" Among the doctors in the army who specialize in treating wind and cold, if my people dare to say second, no one dares to say first. Okay, I won't pursue him, send a prescription another day and your person will study whether it is poisonous or not. But what do you say about this? My staff is Dong Zhuo's people? Isn't that, I think you're my man. ”

Dong Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he had heard in the past about Liu Zheng's wind and cold healing without medicine, and the manual for disaster relief and epidemic prevention in Jizhou was also from Liu Zheng's hand, so he couldn't help touching his nose and said with a dry smile: "Liu Gongzi said that he was joking, how could Dong easily break the knot." Your prescription is also good medicine. However, regarding the matter of Xin Ming and Gongzi's staff, Dong really couldn't be the master, and he had to be ordered by the lord to come over and make a decision. During this period, Dong will also strictly investigate the case for Feng Junshi, and ask Liu Gongzi to go back and wait with peace of mind for the time being. ”

"Oh, today someone slandered my staff member as Dong Zhuo's fine work, that's okay, right? You said. Otherwise, don't put my Yuan Hao in the Min Bei driving camp, and bring it to you. Prepare a few more tents in the coming days, and Liu will also help you catch a few Dong Zhuo and hiss, wait, I see that Dong joins the army and his surname is Dong, you and Dong Zhuo's own family, why don't you also be locked up for a few days, and I will help you investigate this case strictly? ”

The corners of Dong Zhao's mouth twitched, "Young Master Liu, I know that you will do what you say." But such nonsense will only make things worse. You can rest assured, Dong will definitely handle the case impartially and will never tolerate the traitors. In this camp, Dong will also be the ward to guard and assassinate the history of the investigation. Please also ask Liu Gongzi to stay in the camp with peace of mind, and in the future, your people will not move around for the time being, so he said that last night and this morning, Liu Gongzi's people made a lot of trouble."

Liu Zheng shouted, "What's wrong with my people? Dong joins the army, what do you mean by this, we are going to be grounded with just one sentence, right? Then I'm still going to go. Anyway, General Nanyang Yuan is not impossible to take refuge. It's just a crusade against Dong Zhuo, and in his place, maybe it's more comfortable. If my brother Bo Jue comes in the future, you can tell me about it. Leave! ”

"Ahem! Liu Gongzi stays! In the tent, Feng Ji walked out, he covered his face at this time, his body was bent, his steps staggered out, and his figure looked like a twilight old man, "Liu Gongzi, things must be investigated, if you leave like this, how will those people who have ulterior motives for you think of cough cough?" If they fall, will not your reputation be tarnished? ”

Feng Ji covered the cloth on his face and coughed lightly, "You can stay here with peace of mind." It's a long way to Nanyang, so you have to go, and you have to let your brothers rest for a while, right? Take advantage of the ten days, you can rest in peace, and there is no need to be taboo when you should play the competition, and leave everything else to me to cough. When the time comes, Feng will definitely give you an explanation, and you may not have to leave. ”

Feng Ji scolded his mother in his heart, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are on the same page, once Liu Zheng passes, he will not mention the matter of obtaining the Zhongxing Sword, just let Yuan Shu's strength expand can make Yuan Shao jump like thunder, and he will not be scolded to death by Yuan Shao at that time.

The Xin Ming who suffered a thousand cuts

Seeing that Feng Ji was dressed like him, Dong Zhao also persuaded him with kind words, and Liu Zheng also borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and agreed to the matter. Seeing that Liu Zheng was leading people away, Dong Zhao entered the camp tent and said with a wry smile: "Dong is a hundred secrets, forgetting that Liu Zheng seems to be reckless, and he can excel in many affairs, how can he be so easy to coax." ”

"Don't worry about it, you can come forward for me to stabilize the situation first. Feng thought about how to represent this to the main bus. Feng Ji said, still thinking about Yuan Shu in his heart, and then thinking that Liu Pet also had the intention to win over Liu Zheng, and his heart was extremely upset.
