Yuan Yun always thought that a fat man like Wu Yong was the only one in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, but he didn't want to find out that Wu Yong was still slender when he saw Zhang Lu.

At this moment, Zhang Lu piled all the fat on his body in the seat, and even his two arms looked as if they were oozing out of the fat mountain of meat, rolling layers of oily thick skin, and every time Zhang Lu breathed, he would tremble slightly, which seemed very rhythmic.

The facial features on Zhang Lu's face seem to have lost their effect at the moment, no matter what kind of expression he has, others seem to be smiling, and the most impressive thing is that his layers of chin flesh are almost directly spread on his chest, making him look as if he has a big neck disease.

"Yuan Hou hasn't seen him for many years, but he doesn't want to have the honor to visit today, Ben Hou is really ecstatic." When Zhang Lu spoke, his voice seemed panting.

Although Yuan Yun heard Zhang Lu's words, he didn't mean to answer for a while, but was still looking at Zhang Lu's obese appearance, this product definitely deliberately made himself like this, because looking at Zhang Lu like this will only make people feel disdainful, thinking that this product is just a stupid idiot.

Maybe this is what Zhang Lu wants others to see, or hopes that others will think so, so that he can survive safely, this Zhang Lu seems to be a smart person, he used to be a hegemon, and he is really not a simple character.

"Zhang Hou looks very blessed, it seems that the water and soil in Luoyang are really very nourishing." Yuan Yun finally replied, which immediately made Zhang Lu put down a hanging heart.

If it weren't for Zhang Lu's acceptance of Yuan Yun's coercion and the provision of a lot of money and food for Luoyang, I believe that this festival would definitely make Zhang Lu unable to sleep without knowing the taste.

It's just that yesterday when he received a letter from Yuan Yun, saying that he was going to come to the door in person, Zhang Lu's heart that was originally put down mentioned his throat again, others may not know Yuan Yun very well, but Zhang Lu has fought with Yuan Yun, he knows best that Yuan Yun seems to be amiable, but it is definitely a demonic existence to kill, and the countless bones in Hanzhong back then were created by the Hou Ye in front of him.

After suppressing the panic in his heart a little, Zhang Lucai cautiously asked, "I don't know why Yuan Hou came here today?" ”

"It's uneven!" Yuan Yun replied casually.

In just one sentence, the fat on Zhang Lu's face began to shake again, and he immediately hugged his fists and said: "I'm afraid Yuan Hou has some misunderstanding, I, Zhang Luke, have never bullied anyone, and I am even more respectful to the upper and lower levels of the Yuan Mansion, and I never dare to lose my courtesy, if there is really any conflict between the people below, I Zhang Lu immediately admit the punishment, and Yuan Hou will make an offer." ”

Before Zhang Lu's words fell, Yan Pu, who was sitting on the side, immediately answered: "Yuan Hou don't want to be angry for such a trivial matter, I heard yesterday that Yuan Hou was going to come to the house for a while, and my father-in-law prepared a pair of golden calves, which I plan to give as a gift." ”

Looking at the panic on the faces of Zhang Lu and Yan Pu, Yuan Yun smiled bitterly in his heart, it seems that there is no need to track down how Sima Yi blackmailed Zhang Lu, it is estimated that he sent someone to send a message over, Zhang Lu was frightened and obediently handed over the money.

Shaking his hand, Yuan Yuncai smiled and said: "I'm afraid Zhang Hou is a misunderstanding, Ben Hou is not here to be held accountable, but I heard that the Zhang family has been made difficult recently, so I came over to greet you, so I can help you solve these things, after all, Zhang Hou is also an important minister of the dynasty now, and he can't be bullied at will." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Lu's eyes immediately turned quickly, and he was silent for a long time before he said carefully: "Is Yuan Hou going to deal with Sima Yi......?"

"Ahem." Before Zhang Lu spoke, he heard Yan Pu cough a few times, so he immediately chose to shut up.

After Zhang Lu stopped talking, Yan Pu said to Yuan Yun: "Yuan Hou is an immortal fight, how can we such small people withstand it, so we will definitely not participate in it, Yuan Hou doesn't have to come over to test, we just want to live a stable life now, we don't want to join any party, and ask Yuan Hou to let us go." ”

Yuan Yun saw the sincerity of what Yan Pu said, and knew that what he said was indeed true, such as the most powerful person today is naturally Cao Ang, and the person Cao Ang trusts the most is him Yuan Yun, and Sima Yi is recognized as the most powerful minister, so if these two go to war, Zhang Lu will naturally choose to hide far away, otherwise he will inevitably be involved in it if he is not good, and he will never be able to turn over.

"Yan Hou and Zhang Hou seem to have a deep misunderstanding of Ben Hou, this time Ben Hou just wanted to ask how much money Sima Yi took away from you?" Yuan Yun said lightly, and then waited leisurely for the following, he didn't worry about the other party not answering.

Sure enough, after Yan Pu weighed it twice, he said in a deep voice: "We only need to pay 10,000 gold every year, so that Sima Zhongda will give us some convenience in the court." ”

Yuan Yun was shocked when he heard this, 10,000 gold is definitely not a small amount, Zhang Lu has to pay so much every year, it seems that he is indeed wealthy, but this wealth is not too coarse, even if Zhang Lu has been searching in Hanzhong for many years, it is impossible to have so much.

Seeing Yuan Yun's puzzled face, Yan Pu frowned, and finally resolutely explained: "When we were in Hanzhong back then, we once discovered a gold mine, and more than ten years of mining naturally received a lot of money, and the imperial court did not confiscate this money, so we have so much gold. ”

After hearing this explanation, Yuan Yun finally believed it, it seems that it was rumored that Zhang Lu was under the mansion and that it was a foundation made of gold, and there was some truth to this.

After thinking about it, looking at the nervousness on Zhang Lu and Yan Pu's faces, Yuan Yuncai smiled and said, "The two of you don't have to worry that Ben Hou is also here to blackmail like Sima Yi, Ben Hou just wants to find out, how did you give such a large sum of money to Sima Yi?" ”

Zhang Lu finally had a little courage to answer at this time, so after looking at Yan Pu, he immediately replied: "It's all consigned through the boats on the big river, as for how Sima Zhongda stored this money, I really don't know, otherwise I must tell the truth." ”

"When will this 10,000 yuan be paid this year? Where else is it delivered? Who receives it? Yuan Yun asked again.

I only heard Yan Pu reply: "We will never offend Yuan Hou, and naturally we don't want to offend the Sima family, so after this money is delivered, we will not have any responsibility, I hope Yuan Hou can be a personal guarantee." ”

Yuan Yun nodded and said, "Even if Ben Hou wants to do it, it will be after you deliver it, because Ben Hou wants to know where the money goes, so you don't have to worry about anything." ”

Yan Pu nodded, and immediately replied: "The end of this autumn is the time to pay this arrears, and in five days there will be a transport ship with green sails on the river, and we will seal all the money and property in wooden boxes at the dock, and then transport all of them onto the ship. ”

Yuan Yun was stunned when he heard this, and said suspiciously: "With so much money flowing, don't the officials at the dock ask?" ”

Yan Pu sighed and said, "I'm afraid Yuan Hou hasn't been active outside for too long, those officials at the dock are now very corrupt, Sima Yi can naturally easily control this group of people." ”

When Yuan Yun heard this, he had already chosen to believe it completely, because Zhang Lu and Yan Pu, who were now frightened, would never lie, because he would never dare to offend himself, which Yuan Yun confirmed very much, and now these two people just want to ask for neither side to participate in the offense.

Now that he has got what he wants, Yuan Yun immediately smiled with satisfaction, and then arched his hand and said: "Ben Hou will naturally deal with these things in the future, and the Zhang family will definitely not be involved......

Speaking of this, Yuan Yun paused slightly, then his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he looked at Zhang Lu and continued: "But if Ben Hou finds out that you and Sima Yi have other deals besides these, don't blame Ben Hou for turning his face and being ruthless. ”

Seeing Yuan Yun leave a sentence menacingly, and then leave the lobby with the general, Zhang Lu wiped the sweat on his face fiercely, and immediately said to Yan Pu: "Hurry up, hurry up and send someone to inform the shopkeeper of the Sima family about this matter, so as not to ......"

Before Zhang Lu finished speaking, Yan Pu sighed deeply, he was completely desperate for his lord's IQ, so he could only persuade him: "Lord must not be like this, if you notify Sima Yi, Yuan Yun will definitely know immediately, he came to us today to say so clearly, he will definitely send someone to monitor us, if we really do that, I am afraid that disaster will come in the next day." ”

Zhang Lu slapped his head when he heard this, screamed a few times in confusion, and then fell into a state of weakness in an instant, and then collapsed in the chair and muttered to himself: "How good is this, it's all because I was obsessed with ghosts at the beginning, thinking that Sima Yi could deal with Yuan Yun and revenge our old enmity back then, but I didn't want the main owner to find the door in an instant." ”

Yan Pu arched his hand slightly, and said: "The lord is worry-free, Yuan Yun came over this time, and only said that we were blackmailed, so we will push the boat down the river, and treat it as being blackmailed by Sima Yi, instead of taking the initiative to send money over, so that we can naturally keep it safe." ”

Zhang Lu pondered for a while, and then wondered: "We won't revenge this enmity with Yuan Yun?" ”

Yan Pu frowned, then shook his head and sighed: "In terms of strength, Sima Yi is definitely not Yuan Yun's opponent, I thought that many things could be done in the dark until Yuan Yun was cleaned up by us, but now I can't think like this anymore."

That Yuan Yun's strength is obvious to all, I don't know if it's okay, now he has cheered up and is ready to go all out, in this case, we must not participate in it anymore, it is best to hide far away, otherwise we will definitely not protect ourselves, so I suggest that the lord should turn the spearhead at this moment, and we should deal with Sima Yi. ”

"What? Isn't that putting the cart before the horse? Zhang Lu immediately complained.

Yan Pu also seemed to be a little impatient, so his voice raised slightly, and said: "Lord, Yuan Yun is a man, he single-handedly created Luoyang, and the armaments that defeated us back then also came out of him, plus his foundation in Luoyang is far from being comparable to Sima Yi, we are not on the winning side at this time, do we want to go to hell with Sima Yi?"

Yuan Yun came over to ask us this time, in fact, it was to warn us that if we still don't understand his intentions, I'm afraid he will pull us out first, even if the imperial court is not used, I believe that Yuan Yun will wipe us all out overnight, it will not be difficult! ’

When Zhang Lu heard this, he was shocked, the reason why he chose to surrender back then was actually to be rich and rich for life, and now he was so frightened by Yan Pu's words that he didn't dare to mention anything to keep it, so he quickly eagerly continued: "Yes, you are right, hurry up and send 30,000 gold to the Yuan Mansion, as if we are standing in the Yuan family's vote." ”

Yan Pu heard Zhang Lu say this, and finally nodded, and said: "The lord's decision is the most correct, we not only have to send money over, but also inform Yuan Yun that these money is also the amount given to Sima Yi, so if the two sides are treated equally, I hope Yuan Yun can stop digging into it." ”

A few days later, Yuan Yun was dining in the mansion, and only after taking a bite of the bun in his hand, he was startled by Liu Yiyi, who was laughing loudly, and in an instant, he saw this goblin running over with a huge gold ingot in one hand, and then asked curiously: "Lang Jun, do you say that this is a pie in the world, this morning someone inexplicably put down 30,000 gold at the door of our house, what a lot of money." ”

Yuan Yun finally swallowed the bun that he ate in his mouth, and then said angrily: "Your hotel business, the income in January is more than that, why do you still look like a miser, since this money was sent to the door by others, then we don't have to be polite, you just accept it." ”

Seeing Liu Yiyi nodding his head and leaving happily, Yuan Yuncai turned his head to Deng Ai across the table and ordered: "This time, we must find out all the dock officials who have dealings with Sima Yi, and we must find out the destination of the flow of these money." ”

Deng Ai was also taken aback by Liu Yiyi just now, but at this moment he stabilized his mood a little, and immediately clenched his fists and replied: "Huh! ”
