Chapter 43: See Kong Rong

When Mi Fang arrived, Han Yan had actually arrived in Beihai Kingdom, and when Mi Fang was sent away, he rushed to Anqiu City that night. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The county magistrate of Anqiu City had obviously seen Hu Min a long time ago, and by the time Han Yan arrived, he had already prepared enough grain and grass, and had packed up a piece of woodland from outside the city for Han Yan and the others to station.

The banquet of the Anqiu City County Order, which politely declined, Han Yan took his subordinates on the road early the next morning. In any case, the cost of this food and lodging is the people's money, and Han Yan still doesn't seem to disturb the place.

Out of Anqiu, through Chunyu, go west to Yingling, go north to Pingshou, go west to Xi County. Within ten days, Han Yan took more than 4,000 of his men to Kong Rong's city.

Sitting on the horse, Han Yan saw a large number of people emerging from the gate of the drama county from a distance, one of them was dressed in Confucian clothes, about thirty years old and less than forty years old, with a thick lip and a half-foot beard under the chin, obviously the world-famous Kong Rong.

There were about seven or eight people standing next to Kong Rong, but except for Hu Min, only two or three people stood close to Kong Rong, and most of the others were far away from Kong Rong. And the people standing behind Kong Rong all had smiles on their faces, but this smile seemed to Han Yan to be very reluctant, as if there was something unspeakable.

There was still a mile away from the city, Han Yan restrained his mount, followed by a wave back, and stopped the people behind him. Then, Han Yan beckoned to Huang Zhong and Sun Guanyi, and led the two of them to gallop towards the city gate, while Chang Yan and Yin Li were left by Han Yan to take care of the more than 4,000 people behind him.

Han Yan rode a horse, naturally fast, from stopping the mount to galloping in front of Kong Rong, it was just a few breaths. After holding the reins seven or eight steps away from Kong Rong, Han Yan turned over and dismounted, and walked towards Kong Rong.

Before Han Yan could get closer, Kong Rong had already taken the lead in clenching his fists and walked over to Han Yan, laughing loudly, "Hahahaha!" This is 'Han Qianyan', Young Master Han, right? Look up for a long time, look up for a long time! ”

"You're so polite!" Han Yan hurriedly took two steps under his feet, stretched out his hand to support Kong Rong, who was about to bend down to salute him, and said politely, "I didn't expect that the raised hand of the adult actually passed the name of the kid, which really flattered the kid!" ”

The mouth is polite, but Han Yan's heart is like a mirror. Kong Rong definitely doesn't mean that he admires his talent or cares about his identity as a 'young master', as a descendant of Confucius, Kong Rong has enough capital to despise most people, but Han Yan's background and hidden connections behind him make Kong Rong have to be polite. Even so, Kong Rong wanted to salute Han Yan, but Han Yan still couldn't let the other party really get his wish. After all, Han Yan is just a junior.

"Hahaha! I really didn't expect the young master to be so humble, it's really rare! It's rare! ”

As soon as Han Yan's hand reached over, Kong Rong's movements stopped, and then when Han Yan touched him, Kong Rong's movements directly took advantage of the situation to put it away, followed by a burst of compliments.

"Hey! What young master has not many divisions? Isn't this all for outsiders? Smiled and waved his hand, Han Yan ignored the other party's compliment, his face changed, and he said sincerely: "I am also friends with Yang Wei, Taishou you are my elder, what is the name of 'young master' or 'young master', you can call my cousin!" ”

"Table words? This...... Not quite right, right? ”

Although he is very useful in his heart, Kong Rong has already taken this posture.

Seeing that Kong Rong was still holding a posture, a big man who was more than eight feet tall next to Kong Rong spoke, "What's inappropriate?" Suitable, naturally suitable! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Nature is suitable! ”

Glancing at the big man beside Kong Rong, Han Yan immediately felt that the other party should be a general under Kong Rong, otherwise, he would not have this identity to speak.

"This ...... In this case, if you have a letter, don't shout anything too guarded, just call me uncle! ”

Kong Rong, who was still holding a posture just now, saw that the steps had been paved, so he immediately changed his mouth and got in touch with Han Yan.

"Hehe, this ......"

When Kong Rong said this, Han Yan was a little stunned.

What Han Yan said was just a polite remark, and it was not out of the ordinary for this Taishou to shout his own words. But what's the matter with the other party letting him call his uncle? I am not related to the other party, and my deceased adoptive father and current father-in-law have nothing to do with each other, so why does the other party call himself an 'uncle'? Besides, his father-in-law doesn't think much of Kong Rong, and his politeness just now is just a relationship with him as a sheep, if he really shouts, this matter will be a little messy.

"Huh! My lord came from afar, and he has been on the road for more than half a month, and now he is tired, so he should rest for a while, and then talk to Lord Taishou when the rest is almost over! ”

Hu Min, who had already stood by Han Yan's side, heard a trace of hesitation in Han Yan's tone at this time, and his heart moved, and he immediately stood up and spoke.

It seems that Hu Min doesn't understand things and suddenly stands up to stir up the situation. However, Han Yan knows that Hu Min's interruption is very crucial.

When he first bowed his hand to Kong Rong, Han Yan pretended to be a little tired, forced a smile, and said, "Yes! I walked with thousands of people for more than half a month, and I was really tired! ”

"Oops! Look at my head! Why did you forget to believe that you have been tired all the way? It's time to fight! It's time to fight! As he spoke, Kong Rong raised his right hand and patted it lightly on his head twice, with a look of self-blame, and said: "I believe that you have a lot of cars and horses on the road, and those soldiers behind you are also dusty, why don't you let them go to camp and set up camp, and you can follow me into the city to rest first, how about it?" ”

"This ...... Something isn't quite right? The soldiers haven't rested yet, so I'll go into the city to rest first, and it's always a little ......."

Pretending to look back at the four thousand soldiers behind him, Han Yan turned his head behind him slightly, but his eyes were looking at Sun Guan and he couldn't stop winking.

"Lord, everything here is with me, you can rest assured to enter the city!"

Sun saw Han Yan's eyes, comprehended, stepped forward and hugged his fists and said loudly.

"...... like this"

Although Sun Guan already understood, Han Yan still looked silent, after all, what he did was not to want Sun Guan to understand, but to let Kong Rong express his position!

"Haha! There is faith! You really love your soldiers! Kong Rong didn't think about it so much, laughed twice, raised his hand and patted the shoulder of the strong man next to him, "Zong Bao, you go and help this general arrange it to see how to garrison the army." By the way, go get some wine and meat, these soldiers are also a long journey, and they need to be treated! ”

"With General Zongbao's help, it is naturally the best!" After waiting for a long time and finally waiting for this sentence, Han Yan did not hesitate at all, directly agreed, turned to Sun Guanyi and beckoned, and said, "Zhongtai, you and this Zongbao general go and settle the soldiers for a while......"

After saying this, Han Yan's lips moved again, but he didn't make a sound.

Sun watched clearly, and in the end, Han Yan mentioned 'Chang Li' and 'Yin Li', which probably meant that he would go back and replace Chang Feng and Yin Li.

In this way, it is actually very easy to understand. Chang Yan is rude and irritable, and it is easy to get into trouble, with this kind of person by his side, it will be easier for Han Yan to deal with Kong Rong. As for Yin Li, this person is as cunning as a ghost, although it is indeed not worth mentioning the plot or something, but the intrigue is very rare. And Sun Guan, who replaced the two of them, was the most suitable candidate to reorganize the whole army, of course, as for whether Sun Guan could take this opportunity to take out something from Zong Bao, it was up to him.

Having already given the order, Sun Guan led Zong Bao to the rear. And Han Yan didn't have to wait long, Chang Xuan and Yin Li rushed over.

Qi Qi bowed his hand to Han Yan, and Chang Xuan and Yin Li shouted at the same time: "Lord! ”

"Hmm!" Nodding slightly, Han Yan turned his head to look at Kong Rong, "Lord Taishou, this ......"

"Come, come, come into town! Enter the city! ”

Seeing that everything had been arranged, Kong Rong turned sideways and waved his hand towards Han Yan and led towards the city.

From this point, it can be seen that Kong Rong is actually not so hospitable, if he really invites someone into the city, how can anyone make a gesture and go to the city first? Didn't they all get out of the way, make enough gestures, and the two of them would only enter the city after humbling each other?

Following behind Kong Rong, Han Yan carefully looked at the people who greeted him on both sides of the road, and the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became.

Although these people said that they looked well-fed, their eyes were full of sluggishness. Look at the smiles on their faces, although they can be seen to be smiles, but they are like puppets that have been portrayed, and they are indescribably wooden.

Looking at the back of the not very tall man in front of him, Han Yan suddenly had an impulse to kill the other party directly on the spot!

However, Han Yan didn't really do anything with anyone else after all, and the only time he had a conflict with the counselor Xia Mu during the selection of the eighth lieutenant of the West Garden. However, because of this, Han Yan did not reveal his inner thoughts, and replaced Cao Cao or whoever came, Kong Rong, who was walking in front, should now stand upright.

After entering the city and following Kong Rong into the Taishou Mansion, Han Yan's face improved slightly.

Although from the looks of those people outside the city, it seems that this place of Kong Rong's governance is a mess, but looking at the situation in the Taishou Mansion, Kong Rong is not a big traitor. The simple gate and some dim walls all show the brief spectrum of Kong Rong's usual life. In the Taishou Mansion, looking at most of these people who come and go, it can also be seen that Kong Rong's life is not luxurious.

However, Han Yan did not change his opinion of Kong Rong because of this, after all, doing things and being a person have never had anything to do with it.

When Han Yan led the army to the outside of the drama county, it was almost noon. It didn't take a lot of time to meet Kong Rong, and the next time had to leave room for himself to rest, so the arrangement of the banquet was actually set for tonight.

After saying hello to Kong Rong, Han Yan followed the subordinates assigned by Kong Rong and walked in the direction of the guest room to take them, and Hu Min and the other four people also followed behind Han Yan and walked in the direction of the guest room.

Han Yan's guest room is a single piece, a little outside the guest room, while Hu Min and the others are in a dark corner inside, and the difference in treatment can be seen.

With a wave of his hand, Han Yan drove away Chang Xuan and Yin Li, because they were not needed now, it was better to let them rest first, after all, only by recuperating their energy could they play their 'role' well.

Seeing that the subordinate who brought him had already walked away, and there was no one nearby, Han Yan waved his hand and took Hu Min and Huang Zhong into his guest room.

After entering the guest room and looking around, Han Yan confirmed that this Kong Rong was really a simple score! The beds without the slightest decoration and the simple armchairs all show the hard and simple characteristics of this Taishou Mansion.

Gently wiped it on the chair, and after Han Yan confirmed that there was no dust, he sat down, beckoned to Hu Min and Huang Zhong, and said, "Sit down!" ”

"Yes!"

At the same time, Hu Min and Huang Zhong forgot each other's glances and sat down at the same time.

"Tongda, you say...... How is this hole melting? ”

Pouting, Han Yan really didn't know where to start, so he simply asked Hu Min what he thought first.

"This ...... There's a saying I don't know whether to say or not. Hu Min said in his mouth, but he didn't hesitate at all, and without waiting for Han Yan to speak, he had already taken the first step and said: "This person thinks very highly of himself, but he really has to do something......

"How?"

Seeing that Hu Min closed his mouth, Han Yan hurriedly asked.

Questioned by Han Yan, Hu Min's expression became gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "If the army is governed, the army will be defeated, the people will be dispersed, and the administration will be ...... Political turmoil! ”

"Then, what about the other people around Kong Rong?"

After listening to Hu Min's evaluation of Kong Rong, Han Yan was not surprised at all, so he was not interested, and asked about the people around Kong Rong instead.

"This, there are not many people around Beihai Taishou, most of them are just diners attached to his door, and there are only two or three people who will stay if they really want to have something."

Recalling the news he had found these days, Hu Min couldn't help but feel sad for Kong Rong.

"Only two or three of them?" Thinking about it carefully, there were really not many people standing by Kong Rong's side today, and Han Yan understood at that time, "Who are those two or three people?" ”

"The first is the only general by Kong Rong's side, Zong Bao; Then there is the high secret collar Wang Xiu; There is also the local celebrity Teng Tan; And after that...... There is also a half-grown kid named You Heng, who seems to have a very good relationship with Kong Rong. ”

After thinking about it carefully, Hu Min said four names.
