Chapter 31
In the long run, Yuan Shao is a waste who does not live up to his name, and Ding Xiao does not regard him as an opponent at all.
But at the moment, the division of the heroes has not yet begun, and if you face Yuan Shao at this time, it will be really a bit troublesome.
However, it was Lu Bu who directly offended Yuan Shao yesterday, and he had little to do with Zhang Yang, even if Yuan Shao made things difficult, it would not be too much, and there was no need to worry about it at all.
"Otherwise, Feng Xian, you can find a chance to talk to the general and transfer me to your account!" Zhang Yang said suddenly.
"No!"
Ding Xiao hurriedly stopped, "You will stay under Yuan Shao!" ”
"Why?"
Zhang Yang looked puzzled.
"Yuan Shao is full of hostility towards us at this time, we must be guarded against, if you stay with Yuan Shao, you can feedback some news back in time, so that you need it from time to time." Ding Xiao explained with a smile.
Actually, there is one more important reason, which he did not say.
That is, if Zhang Yang follows Lu Bu, then he can only mobilize one army in this Beijing division, but if Zhang Yang stays under Yuan Shao's account as Sima, then at the critical moment, he can have two teams at the same time!
However, he and Zhang Yang have not yet reached the level of friendship, and this matter cannot be explained, so in order to completely dispel the other party's concerns, he turned to say, "Besides, you didn't offend Yuan Shao yesterday, he may not attack you!" Take a step back, even if he does make things difficult for you, I have a solution here! ”
"Oh?"
Zhang Yang's eyes lit up, "What's the trick?" ”
"It's not a clever plan, it's just a small trick."
After a modest sentence, Ding Xiao opened his mouth and asked with a smile, "Brother Zhang, praise people, will you?" ”
"Uh, yes."
The other party came up with such a sentence coldly, which made Zhang Yang very puzzled.
"That's going to be easy."
Ding Xiao smiled, "If Yuan Shao really makes things difficult for you in the future, you just need to praise him!" ”
"Compliment?"
Zhang Yang and Lu Bu looked at each other, "Can this work?" ”
"It has to work!"
Ding Xiao smiled affirmatively, and then emphasized, "Of course, when you praise him, you must master some skills, and you must find ways to rely on the general righteousness, such as Corporal Lixian, discerning and the like, and it is best to be quiet!" ”
"Ding Gongzi, I don't understand this."
Zhang Yang grabbed his hair and smiled bitterly, "Why do you want me to do this?" ”
"The fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family, the statement is far away, although Yuan Shao is the son of the Yuan family, he is a concubine, so he attaches great importance to his reputation on weekdays. As long as you praise him, he will not embarrass you! ”
The trick that Ding Xiao thought of was actually called moral kidnapping, and it only worked because Yuan Shao loved fame! If it were someone else, it wouldn't be easy.
"Oh, I see."
Zhang Yang's eyes lit up, nodded excitedly, and then thanked him repeatedly.
"Brother Zhang fed the tiger for my brother-in-law, I should thank you."
After Ding Xiao said politely, he turned his head to look at Lu Bu, and his expression gradually became solemn.
"Brother-in-law, Brother Zhang is actually not a big deal here, but it is you, you must be more careful in the future!"
Hearing this, Lu Bu put away his smile and nodded heavily, "Then I'll try to put up with him on weekdays!" ”
"Good! Being able to bend and stretch is the wind of a general! Ding Xiao praised from the bottom of his heart.
With Lu Bu's arrogant temperament, it is not easy to say such things. This proves that Lu Bu has indeed grown a lot since this period of time.
This was very gratifying to him.
"Haha, don't say these uninteresting words!"
Zhang Yang spoke at the right time and changed the topic, "Today, Fengxian and I have both been promoted, which is a happy event, and we should be happy!" ”
"Yes!"
Ding Xiao smiled and continued, "Then I will be the east, please have a good meal and celebrate the two of you!" ”
"Ding Gongzi, what are you talking about?!"
Zhang Yang was suddenly a little unhappy, "You came late yesterday, and you encountered the big event of Zhengjun's plot to be a thief, I haven't had time to entertain you well, and today I was promoted because of your suggestion, and I haven't thanked you yet, so this meal should be arranged by me!" ”
"If you want to please, I'll please!"
Lu Bu also joined in the fun, "I have jumped from a grass man to a military captain, and I am on the same level as my father-in-law, which can be described as a step to the sky!" If there is no news from Uncle Ya and the plan of eliminating the younger brother, how can it be done?! So, this meal must be my please! ”
After some disputes, Ding Xiao and the two finally couldn't resist the enthusiastic publicity, and were dragged to the restaurant by the other party, accompanied by one of Zhang Yang's cronies.
After a few people sat down, Zhang Yang introduced, "This is my close general, Mu Shun, who is a fellow villager with me and a person from the state, in the future, if it is inconvenient for me to come out in the army, he will pass the message on my behalf." ”
This Mu Shun is eighteen years old, quite brave, comparable to Wei Xu, Song Xian and others under Ding Yuan's account, and he is loyal and commendable, and he has won the trust of Zhang Yang.
"The last general will meet General Lu and Ding Gongzi!" The young general Mu Shun bowed.
"After that day, there will be labor!"
Lu Bu raised his glass and smiled, "Come, you and I will drink this cup together!" ”
"Please!"
After agreeing, Mu Shun drank all the wine in the cup.
"Well done! Let's have another drink! ”
Lu Bu seemed to like the young player very much, and began to toast continuously, drinking with the other party.
"Mu Shun?"
Ding Xiao felt that the name was a little impressive, and after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but look strange.
In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", this Mu Shun only showed his face once when he was following Zhang Yang's crusade against Dong Zhuo, and was picked up by Lu Bu under the horse and died.
And now, Mu Shun and Lu Bu, a pair of enemies, actually want to sit together and drink.
"It seems that because of my appearance, this plane has begun to be a little chaotic." Ding Xiao couldn't laugh or cry, but in fact, he also had a little expectation in his heart, "This is just the beginning, I don't know what bizarre and fun things will happen in the future......"
"Ding Gongzi, I salute you, if it weren't for your words yesterday that woke me up, there would be no joy for me to publicize today's promotion! Ha ha! ”
Zhang Yang came over to toast, pulling Ding Xiao back to reality from his distraction.
He hurriedly raised his glass to greet him, "Brother Zhang, if you say this again, you will see the outside!" I salute you for this cup, congratulations to Brother Zhang on his ascension! ”
"Rejoice together, haha......"
In a joyful atmosphere, this meal was drunk for a long time.
After the banquet was over, Ding Xiao and the others said goodbye to Zhang Yang and lived in Lu Bu's newly sealed mansion.
Looking at the atmospheric courtyard, Lu Bu sighed with emotion, and sighed to Ding Xiao, "Everything in this house is good, but there are too few people, and there is a little lack of vitality." ”
"I think you miss my second sister, right?" Ding Xiao quipped.
Not long after Lu Bu and Ding Feng got married, it was when Lang's concubine was strong, but he was abducted and brought to the capital, which was indeed a little difficult for Lu Bu.
"Hey, hey."
Lu Bu's face turned red, smiled embarrassedly, and then said, "I have an official position, and it is inconvenient to return to my hometown, why don't you bother to run for me and pick up your second sister and them?" ”
"Brother-in-law, I think it's better not to pick them up for the time being!" Ding Xiao put away his smiling face and said with a straight face.
"Why?" Lu Bu was slightly stunned.
Ding Xiao took a deep breath and said slowly, "Because of the undercurrent surging in Beijing, there will be an earth-shattering change soon!" ”
