After this episode, Xu Chu was not in the mood to ride in the same car with Zhang Yun and Xie Zhen. Zhang and Xie are the Gongcao and the chief bookkeeper of Lujiang County, and the new Taishou has not yet arrived in the county, and he is also a little shameless to face Xu Chu.

Guo Jia specially came to Xu Chu to find a good plan with Xu Chu about what happened just now.

Sitting in the car, Xu Chu was actually full of doubts in his heart, and without waiting for Guo Jia to speak, he first asked, "Does Feng Xiao know about Zhou Qiao?" ”

Xie Zhen said that Zhou Qiao was a member of the Huiji Zhou clan, and Cao Peng, a soldier of Wu County at the time, thought of the previous Danyang Taishou Zhou Xin, Xu Chu always felt that there was some conspiracy in it.

Guo Jia said: "Zhou Qiao, the word Renming, is the younger brother of Zhou Danyang." Zhou Danyang has two brothers, one is named Zhou Ang, and the other is Zhou Qiao. Speaking of which, this Zhou Ang, although he is endowed with hope in his family, is the most famous of the three brothers, and he had a friendship with Yuan Sili in his early years. ”

"Feng Xiao really knows everything about the corporal in the world." Xu Chu exclaimed.

Guo Jia smiled, "Where the duty lies, don't dare to be ridiculous." ”

One of the three brothers of the Zhou family is 2,000 Shi Taishou, the other is Cao Peng, a soldier in the county, and there is a more famous one in Yangwang, whose status and influence in the state should not be low. Zhou Xin dared to speak to the assassin in a bright and bright way, and he couldn't do without the foundation and connections laid for him by the clan.

Zhou Ang's hope is a common thing in this dynasty and even in the entire history of China. What is the purpose of raising hope, it is to win a greater reputation and seek a higher position, but in Xu Chu's opinion, Zhou Ang is still staying at home at this time, but it is not a wise choice.

If there is no Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, Zhang Zhao and other generations of famous ministers, it is better to do less to raise hope, it is better to go out early and lay the foundation early.

Referring to the fact that the officials led by him before claimed to have come to Lujiang to levy military rations on the orders of Cao Pengzhou, a soldier of Wu County, Xu Chu felt even more strange.

"Zhou Danyang and Uncle Fang are not in harmony, how could Uncle Fang let Zhou Qiao go to Lujiang County to recruit military rations? Moreover, it is rare to see such counties acting in a county-to-county manner. After a pause, Xu Chu said again: "Could it be the order of Duke Sheng of Wu County?" ”

Guo Jia groaned: "It shouldn't be Sheng Gong's meaning. Jia Zeng heard that Uncle Fang and Gong Sheng have always been friends, and Uncle Fang has contributed to the position of Wu Juntaishou. If Sheng Gong hadn't lost his mind, he would have been able to dig into his own corner and offend the lord for Uncle Fang. ”

Guo Jia's guess is that Chen Wen or Sheng Xian are not behind this matter, but someone else. The mastermind behind the scenes may be Danyang Taishou Zhou Xin, or it may be some people in the Yangzhou clan who are not very friendly with Chen Wen.

"This matter is very strange, and it should be discussed with wise people such as Zhicai and Yuan Zhi in the long run. For the sake of today's plan, it is necessary to deal with the people of Wu County who were tied up quickly. Guo Jiarong said.

Xu Chu said: "Feng Xiao thinks what to do? ”

Guo Jia replied: "Just now, I asked Wen Qian to carefully check the things that those people were carrying, and they were indeed the scholars and gatekeepers under Cao Peng of Wu County, and the person who was the leader was Cao Shi, a soldier of Wu County. In my opinion, it is still necessary to escort these people to Wu County and Wu County as soon as possible, one to make a clear position, and the other to listen to the truth. ”

Xu Chu accepted his words and said: "On the people of the Yangzhou scholars, Wu County should be the leader. Fengxiao, if you want to handle this matter decently, you or Zhicai have to go in person. ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The lord is heavy, and Jia Tizhi has only thanked him." But when everything is about to happen, it will take a long time to travel between Lujiang and Wujun, so it is better to let others go. ”

"How is Wen Qian?"

"Le Wenqian is brave and resolute, but it's a pity that he is quiet and introverted, and he is not good at words."

Xu Chu thought about it after hearing this, slapped his thigh and said, "Li Wenda can!" ”

Li Tong is also a very heroic person, but he and Le Jinyi are more eloquent than Li Tong, from the first meeting in Yanling County to the way to Lujiang, Xu Chu has carefully observed.

Guo Jia then nodded and said, "Li Tong is very suitable, so let Chen Boxu go with him." ”

Chen Gong and Li Tong defected to Xu Chu at the same time, if only Li Tong was allowed to go, it was inevitable that Chen Gong would have ideas, and one more person would always be more than one percent sure, Xu Chu thought so, and wrote a letter after stopping that day, stamped with the freshly baked 'Zhaowu Hou' seal, and called Li Tong and Chen Gong to the account.

Li Tong and Chen Gong came together, and when they heard that it was such an errand as an envoy to Wu Jun, they were eager to try. Imagine that not long after the two defected, Xu Chu did not use 'old men' and 'old officials', such as Le Jin, Gan Ning and others, Li and Chen, who were also county heroes, were very happy, which shows that Xu Chu has confidence in them and is of great use.

They were right, of course Xu Chu wanted to reuse them, but Xu Chu also had helplessness. Don't say the quiet Lejin, Gan Ning is a lot of words, but Gan Ning is a 'bold' person, when he was in Shu County, beating and humiliating county and county officials who were disrespectful to him happened from time to time, Jingzhou Assassin Wang Rui didn't like Gan Ning because of this, even if he knew that Gan Ning was strong in martial arts and good at leading troops, he didn't use it. If Xu Chu asked Gan Ning to do this errand, he would have to worry day and night about whether Gan Ning would overturn the tiles of Wujun Taishou's Mansion.

After Li Tong and Chen Gong received the order, they selected a few capable and shrewd subordinates and escorted those Wu County people to Wu County in the starry night.

But it was said that Li Tong and Chen Gong walked under the moonlight, walked to a forest, and the light of the stars and the moon fell on the two of them. After speaking, he took out a gourd of wine from his arms, took a few sips of it on his head, and threw it to Chen Gong.

Chen Gong is an introverted person, and he usually doesn't like to talk much, but in front of Li Tong, who has known him for a long time, he also let go of the chatterbox. After taking the wine gourd, Chen Gong threw it back to Li Tong without drinking it, and said, "Wenda, I have known Junhou for more than a month, what do you think of Junhou?" ”

Li Tong glanced at Chen Gong and let out a sip of wine.

"Junhou Fenwu Yang Wei is an example of our heroes, what can I say?"

"What about the princes under the tent?"

"Well...... this" Li Tong thought for a while and said: "Guo Fengxiao, Xi Zhicai, and Xu Yuanzhi are all children of a poor family. ”

Chen Gong scolded with a smile: "Who told you to say that Guo, Xi, Xu and other strategists, they are self-contained people, but what do they have to do with us?" I'll ask you to tell us about people like us. ”

Li Tong pointed at Chen Gong's nose and said as if he was very rude: "Boxu, are you weak-hearted?" ”

Chen Gong sighed, "Wenda, I know you are a reckless person. You and I are both from Pingchun, making friends with chivalrous warriors in the county, raising doormen, and being called heroes in the Jiangru area! ”

"That's right, this is the Chen Boxu I know!"

Chen Gongfu scolded with a smile: "Don't interrupt you...... However, since he met Junhou and met Gan Ning, Dian Wei, Le Jin and others, didn't Wenda have any ideas? Gan Ning took the heroes of Shu County to take refuge in the prince, and when he was in Yingchuan, he led the power of Sima Zhiquan of other departments to lead an army, and Dian Wei led the elite tiger guard of the prince and marquis, and made many meritorious deeds, that is, Le Wenqian, and now he is also the first to ascend to the dead, and he will be the prince and the prince in the future. On the other hand, you and I are still leading the righteous servants brought from Jiangxia, and it may not be easy to compete with Gan, Dian, and Le. ”

When Li Tong heard this, he walked towards Chen Gong solemnly and hammered the latter's chest, "Bo Xu, I advise you not to hide your thoughts too deeply...... The world will be chaotic, heroes will rise together, you and I can see one or two when we are in Jiangxia. Now under the account of the prince and the marquis, don't you miss the important task of entrusting you and me to envoy Wu County when you and I first arrived? Just do your best, and in the future, what is the difficulty! ”

Speaking of emotion, Li Tong grabbed Chen Gong's hand and said solemnly: "Meritorious service, wealth and fame, you and I will do it together!" ”

Chen Gong finally let go of his thoughts, shook his head and said to himself: "You are right, I think too much, just do things well, and with the wisdom of the prince and marquis, you will not treat me badly." Make contributions, you and I will do it together! ”
