Xu Chu sent a guide to come, it must not be as simple as touting and showing favor, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin knew it, so they asked, "What's important about Xu Hou?" ”

Qian Zhao first said bluntly: "The prince thinks that the second monarch is a heroic and righteous man, and he doesn't want to be an enemy of the second monarch." Then he said: "Don't hide it, before the prince went to the county this time, he had received some news, and I am afraid that someone in Yangzhou will be unfavorable to the prince." Who this person is, the prince knows in his heart, and he must have heard of it a little bit. ”

Zhou Tai subconsciously nodded slightly, and Jiang Qin snorted, "I'm waiting for Xiaomin, even if I know some gossip, it's not enough!" ”

According to Xu Chu's inference, at this time, there should have been changes in the west and east of the county, and Danyang Taishou Zhou Xin wants to deal with his own affairs, which is probably something that is known to everyone in Yangzhou and is not easy to publicize. Draw the trick to explain the intention first, and then make this a little lighter, just to make Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin believe that they are sincere.

He said: "The prince and the prince came to Lujiang County with 5,000 people from the Yingchuan tribe, in order to protect the territory and the people, and to serve the court, and did not want to cause disputes and put the people in fire and water. However, some people are narrow-minded and can't tolerate 'martial artists' like Junhou, so they do their best to exclude them, wanting to make Lujiang chaotic and discredited Junhou. The second gentleman said, is this move reasonable? ”

The word 'martial artist' deeply pierced the hearts of Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, they are also martial artists, and they are also from humble backgrounds.

Zhou Tai said: "Please speak clearly." ”

Zhao suddenly sighed: "It's a pity that the world is in turmoil, but you and I are still fighting meaninglessly!" Dare to ask Erjun, don't you feel sorry? ”

These words were half taught by Xu Chu face-to-face, and half were taught by himself. Xu Chu's face-to-face teaching is appropriate because once Xi Zhong talked to him about the Zongheng family in the pre-Qin and Warring States periods, saying that all clever lobbyists have always to remember one sentence - the language is not amazing and endless. Because only in this way will the other party's mind be shaken and the other party will gradually enter the trap laid by himself.

So prescribe the right medicine, so that the lead must remember the words 'the world will be chaotic', and throw it out at the right time. After all, he is not a real eloquent person, so his grasp of tone and timing is not mature enough, if Guo Jia and Xi Zhong are here, they can stand up in shock to Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin.

Rao was like this, Jiang Qin was still taken aback, and said, "Why do you say this! "Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin are not completely unaware of this, but when it comes to having a deep understanding of 'the world will be chaotic', they are definitely not as good as scholars like Chen Wen and Zhou Xin.

But after listening to the move, he said: "Jiang Jun knows why Jizhou assassinated Wang Fen?" ”

Where did Jiang Qin know that the Jizhou Thorn History that the eight poles couldn't beat, it was still 'old', shook his head, and replied: "I don't know." ”

"Wang Fen's character Wenzu is from the same county as the current Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Miao and Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao. This person is still alive when the first emperor is still alive in Jizhou, he passed on his old friends, party henchmen, and wanted to abolish the Son of Heaven, and then committed suicide because of the revelation of the matter. ”

"Oh? How can there be such a thing? Jiang Qin touched his chin and sighed. He didn't know Wang Fen, but when it came to Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao, he knew. Guangling County belongs to the Xuzhou Thorn History Department, just east of Jiujiang County to the north, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai occasionally go there to fight the autumn wind, so they know Zhang Chao a little. On the side, Zhou Tai also looked surprised, and pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

Wang Fen plotted to abolish the establishment of the Son of Heaven, and Xu Chu also told him. This incident happened in the Zhongping period, not many people knew at that time, after Wang Fen's suicide, it gradually became known to many people, and now Xu You, the mastermind who is following Yuan Shao, is involved.

Zhou Taixin said: The words of the lead do not seem to be fake. Therefore, the Son of Heaven is alive, and some people want to abolish the Son of Heaven, needless to say that the Son of Heaven is young now, and the court has the power to arbitrarily exercise power. I know some people who fled to Yangzhou from Youliang and Liang, and they all say that the rebellion in their hometown is getting more and more intense, and it is difficult for the people to survive, so isn't the world about to be chaotic!

Observing the expressions on the faces of the two people, they all looked deeply approving, so he immediately said: "The prince said: Zhou Youping and Jiang Gongyi, famous in the state and county, raised their arms and shouted, countless heroes followed, and now they are carrying the name of "**", and they can't fly high, it's a pity!" ”

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin looked at each other blankly, what's the matter? Is this to pull them in?

Xu Chu does have such thoughts, but he also knows that the heat is not enough now. Let the recruitment say this, one purpose is to lay a good front station and prepare for possible solicitation in the future; The other is that even if they can't be recruited, they can't let the two invade Lujiang County again and disturb the counties along the river.

The reason is that Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin are in a very embarrassing situation now. Although the government is powerless to cut them off, it is also difficult for them to strengthen themselves. Thinking from another perspective, if Xu Chu is Chen Wen or Zhou Xin, he can only guard against them, use them, and try not to let them endanger his own jurisdiction. In this case, if Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin want to strengthen their strength, they can only be 'hired' by ambitious officials like Zhou Xin. And if Xu Chu becomes the political 'umbrella' of Jiu**, it will obviously greatly offend the local officials in Yangzhou, and even Guangling, Runan, Xiapi and other places will have a lot of complaints about Xu Chu.

Asking Dong is imminent, for the sake of Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, offended too many local officials, and the disadvantages still far outweigh the advantages.

Therefore, in order to prevent Jiu** from becoming someone's 'mercenary' again, the first thing is to let them understand that they have the hope of 'making great achievements' and do not need to continue to be thieves. Before that, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai had to accumulate a lot of money and do less to make themselves cheaper.

According to the current development of the situation, it is more likely that Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai will finally seek refuge on the side of Sun Jian and Sun Ce. But it is also a helpless thing, who let the Sun family's foundation be in Wu Land, and who let the Sun family in addition to Sun Jian, there is another 'little overlord' Sun Ce? Xu Chu can get close to the water and get the moon first, and cut off Zhou Yu, whose family is in Lujiang County, can he still reach Jiujiang County? It's a bit hard.

The conversation between Zhao and Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin is very complicated about human nature and people's hearts, and the words are said from the mouth of Zhao Zhao, in fact, the one who really negotiates with Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin is counted as a Xu Chu. With Xu Chu's current ability, he can think that this step is still due to the fact that he was familiar with the deeds of Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin in his previous life, and he used the results to reverse the reason, and the expected effect was achieved.

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin are heroes with 'heroic ambitions', and in peacetime, the two of them were at most set up by the county as small officials for catching thieves and arresting murderers, and they were about the same age, and they might become the left and right Cao Shi of the county Cao, and if they were lucky, they might be able to get a Cao Peng. It's already the sky. Now that he is being recruited, the ambition hidden in his heart is suddenly stimulated: If there will be chaos today, it is the time for my generation to seek fame, and I still want to be a Laoshizi**?

Jiang Qin said in a very regretful tone: "It's a pity that I didn't know Zhaowu Marquis early, otherwise Youping and I wouldn't have fallen into the grass." ”

The words landed, and the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell.

"Jiang Jun and Zhou Jun, the words have come to this, can the two of you listen to the next persuasion, make an alliance with the contemptible lord, and no longer fight each other?" After speaking, seeing that the hesitation of the two was almost gone, he took the trick to strike while the iron was hot, and said: "In this battle, both sides have injuries. Some of Erjun's subordinates were seriously injured, and the prince felt his loyalty and martyrdom, and was unwilling to inflict poisonous hands......"

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Tai sighed, "Xu Hou Gaoyi, Zhou Tai admires!" Jiang Qin also said: "After you go back, please convey our admiration and apologies." ”

After the business is over, the guest and the host are harmonious. After drinking a few glasses of wine during the banquet, he said goodbye to Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin. Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin got up and personally saw Jiang Qin off the boat, and after seeing him leave, Jiang Qin said: "Fang Bo Chen Wen and Danyang Zhou Xin are all famous families, but in my opinion, they are not as good as Xu Hou. ”

Zhou Tai looked ahead in silence for a long time, and nodded slightly.
