Chapter 34: The Storm Rises Again
Cao Ang's change made many people vigilant, not just one Jiang Gan, when Cheng Yu suddenly said that he wanted to tell the old man earlier, he didn't think about it so much, and then Xun Yu refused to go out of the mountain again, all of which revealed all kinds of information, but it wasn't until this moment that Yuan Yun discovered the cleverness of these people.
As Cao Cao's old subordinates, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu have never experienced any ups and downs, so they should have understood the difference between Cao Ang very early, and the people who fight the world and those who govern the world are also very different in nature.
In wartime, as long as you are talented and can win the battle, then no matter how you are not treated well, you can still be in the mix, but in peacetime, especially in front of the new generation of emperors, you are not so comfortable, and you are likely to lose your head because you accidentally say the wrong thing.
For smart people like Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, they naturally saw through it a long time ago, so they chose to avoid it early, only when Cao Cao was still there, they chose to dodge, so that they could not only retreat with their whole body, but also not offend Cao Ang, it can be said that they kill two birds with one stone, and they are good people inside and out.
After Jiang Gan got Yuan Yun's promise, he left satisfied, and walked very easily, which seemed to solve a major event in his heart, but what Yuan Yun didn't expect was that after a few days, Wu Yong also came over, this goods are still the same as in the past, every time he visits, he has to bring a large number of gifts, and the Yuan Mansion in Yecheng is not big, and several cars of gifts are directly piled up in the front yard.
Looking at the fat Wu Yong, Yuan Yun simply didn't bother to arrange a seat, and directly chose to sit down on the lawn in the courtyard with him.
As soon as Wu Yong's buttocks hit the ground, he immediately shook the fat on his face and said with a smile: "Yuan Hou, this trip to Yecheng can be regarded as a small gain." ”
Yuan Yun frowned, and said suspiciously: "You followed Cao Zhang and Zhao Yun to rob Xianbei and Karasuma before, how much can you gain?" What else do those barbarians have to plunder but cattle and sheep? You're not going to do human trafficking, are you? ”
Wu Yong saw that Yuan Yun was getting more and more serious, and hurriedly shook his hand and said: "No, no, this kind of thing is too unvirtuous, and Yuan Hou has never liked it, how can the little one do it?" ”
Yuan Yun was slightly stunned when he heard Wu Yong finish speaking, and then asked, "Accumulate virtue?" When did you start practicing Buddhism? ”
Wu Yong's face instantly panicked, because in his impression, Yuan Yun seemed to like Buddhism too, and now he was unlucky to reveal his stuffing because of two words.
Looking at Wu Yong's nervous appearance, Yuan Yun pondered for a moment, as if he had figured out something, so he continued to ask: "You go to Buddhism, won't it be just to earn the money of those monks?" ”
Wu Yong's face at this time had changed from panic to embarrassment, and he pondered for a while before nodding cautiously and replied: "Yuan Hou can see through it at a glance, the little ones are indeed greedy for the money of those bald people, you don't know, these monks' money is very profitable, and they have a lot of money......"
"Stop, stop, there is no need to say much about the monk's affairs, in short, I don't care if you make money, it's better not to mess around, these monks are not simple, now there are many things to do, so I didn't pay much attention to them, and when the matter in Yecheng is almost over, I'm going to go to them to have a good chat, in the past few years, the White Horse Temple has not collected less incense money from believers, and even purchased a lot of land, and now they are almost richer than Benhou, so they have to cut some meat."
Wu Yong was not very surprised when he heard Yuan Yun say this, and immediately replied cheerfully: "When I return to Luoyang this time, the little one will immediately put aside the relationship with the White Horse Temple, and Yuan Hou can rest assured." ”
Yuan Yun snorted, then changed the topic and said, "Tell me, you came half a year earlier than Ben Hou, what kind of wealth did you make, and you actually bragged in front of Ben Hou." ”
Wu Yong smiled and said: "Didn't Yuan Hou see the treasure called ginseng in the mansion before, so when the little one went to Xianbei, he didn't buy less, and there was a two-hundred-year-old good ginseng in the gift given to Yuan Hou just now, but Yuan Hou was well-informed, so he naturally didn't care, just a small ......."
"Hehe, okay, didn't you just look at the gift list, and then you thought you gave a batch of gifts for nothing, right?" After Yuan Yun finished smiling, he immediately patted Wu Yong's shoulder and continued: "I told you a long time ago, our relationship has only been established for so many years, unlike those people outside, every time you come to give gifts, then you will see the outside, so Ben Hou is too lazy to look at the large list of gifts you listed, next time you come empty-handed, the gift I sent just now Ben Hou also sent someone to send you back, but now I heard you say that ginseng, Ben Hou thinks it's better to stay." ”
After listening to Yuan Yun's words, Wu Yong's heart was naturally extremely moved, after all, Yuan Yun's identity and his Wu Yong are simply the same as heaven and earth, but the sky in front of him is still the same, almost no different from the past.
Sighing deeply, Wu Yong couldn't help but mutter: "Yuan Hou is still the Yuan Hou of the year, but unfortunately His Royal Highness King Wei is no longer ......"
"Be careful!" Yuan Yun saw Wu Yong casually say that Cao Ang hurriedly reminded him, because of this sentence, he Yuan Yun said that it was okay, but Wu Yong was different, if he was still so imprudent outside, if he sued Cao Ang, there would definitely be no good result, especially Cao Ang's anger at the moment.
After Wu Yong was warned by Yuan Yun, he immediately gave himself a big mouth, and then he arched his hand and said: "The little one can't help it for a while, but fortunately Yuan Hou reminds me, otherwise it will really be a big rebellion." ”
Yuan Yun nodded, not comforting Wu Yong, just hoping that he would remember this lesson, and don't talk outside again.
Wu Yong saw that Yuan Yun didn't answer, so he continued: "The little one who came over this time actually has something to ask Yuan Hou for. ”
Yuan Yun was stunned again, and said suspiciously: "This is strange, in the past, if you had something to ask for, you basically started to play tricks after a few words, how did you endure it today?" ”
Wu Yong didn't react to Yuan Yun's ridicule, and said directly to the topic: "I hope that when Yuan Hou is in the wilderness, he can arrange for the small one to go to the Hexi Corridor, and if he can directly send it to General Xiahoudun's capital protection mansion, it would be the best." ”
Another one!
Yuan Yun muttered a sentence in his heart, and then nodded and smiled: "I let you go there to develop a few years ago, it seems that now it is a small achievement, since you want to go there, then go early, why wait until the day when you go to the wilderness?" ”
Wu Yong smiled and said: "If you don't watch Yuan Hou completely settle down, the small one can't rest assured, and if there is a case, maybe the small one can still be used, so the small one has to endure until Yuan Hou completely settles down, so that he can go to the Western Regions comfortably." ”
This time it was Yuan Yun's turn to be extremely moved, Wu Yong is the most philistine person, and such a person has such a friendship with him Yuan Yun, it is really not simple, so it is impossible not to be moved.
After a long time, Yuan Yun patted Wu Yong's shoulder again, and then said: "It's only been this year or two, when King Wei is proclaimed emperor, he will return to his hometown, and then he will follow you to Xiyuan to take a look at the exotic style." ”
When Yuan Yun said these words with emotion, he found that Wu Yong's brows were furrowed, as if he was still thinking about other things in his heart, which was very strange, Wu Yong was quite well understood, he rarely hid things in front of him, and he was reluctant to say his true intention today.
"What are you here for today? If you are in such a twist and turn, be careful of your temper. Yuan Yun's whole face sank as he spoke.
Wu Yong was stunned when he saw this, and immediately stood up from the lawn, in terms of the fat of his body, this time it was quite laborious, and he didn't expect such an obese person to be so agile at all.
Yuan Yuncai sighed, then heard Wu Yong's sigh, fell back again, and only after falling did he scream: "My legs are numb, unlucky." ”
Yuan Yun smiled bitterly, and then continued to ask, "Say, what is the purpose of your coming today?" ”
Wu Yong rubbed his legs and held back for a while before saying: "Prince Cao Zhang is about to triumph, and it is a pity not to catch up with Prime Minister Cao's funeral, but these are not important, the important thing is that Prince Cao Zhang is probably targeted by the current King of Wei." ”
Yuan Yun's face was full of doubts when he heard this, but he didn't rush to ask questions, just patiently waited for Wu Yong to continue.
Wu Yong glanced at Yuan Yun cautiously before continuing: "This matter will inevitably involve the inheritance of some thrones, the little one doesn't want to say that he doesn't want Yuan Hou to get involved again, but this time Cao Zhanggongzi returned victorious, but the court canceled all the military exploits of Cao Zhanggongzi, which is really unbearable, so the small one dares to ......"
When Wu Yong said the back, he suddenly found that Yuan Yun's eyes turned cold, and he was immediately frightened.
Yuan Yun pondered for a moment before saying, "Has the imperial court's edict been decentralized?" ”
Wu Yong nodded and said, "If there is no edict, how dare the little one talk nonsense." ”
"Can there be a seal from the king of Wei on the edict?" Yuan Yun asked again.
Wu Yong nodded again and said: "Naturally, there is a letter from King Wei, so the little one came to Yuan Hou here to nag a few words, and treating a meritorious general like this will chill people's hearts." ”
After Yuan Yun listened to Wu Yong's words, his mind was full of thoughts about the things behind him, it stands to reason that Cao Ang should not be suspicious of his own brother Cao Zhang, after all, Cao Zhang is different from Cao Pi, Cao Zhang is almost a military general with little scheming.
When he thought of this, Yuan Yun naturally drew three words in his mind: "Sima Yi." ”
Since Sima Yi came to Luoyang, he has been dealing with him Yuan Yun in various ways, although he always wants to frame Yuan Yun, but with Cao Ang, even if he does things practically, he will always be turned into a big thing and a small matter, so Sima Yi has been a lot more peaceful in recent years.
And the reason why I think of Sima Yi is that this product has usurped the world of the Cao family in history, there has been no wind and no waves in recent years, even Yuan Yun was almost deceived by his forbearance, dealing with Cao Zhang is actually suppressing the people around him Yuan Yun, this is probably not only Cao Zhang, Jiang Gan and others want to resign, I am afraid they also feel inexplicable pressure, but they didn't expect Sima Yi, but thought that they were not capable enough, so they wanted to stay away from the court, so they wanted to seek a happy ending.
"I was almost deceived by this product." Yuan Yun said a word, and then beckoned Wu Yong into the study, this matter must be asked clearly.
