Chapter 52: Zhao Yun, Brother can only help you get here
Li Ru, Li Wenwei, a complete poor family, Dong Zhuo's think tank, and his son-in-law. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Ru is an ordinary literati, with his status as a humble family, and he has no chance to be a big faction, it is not easy to learn a strategy.
However, it is precisely because of this that he is the real terrifying existence. is different from Guo Wen, who was born in a family, Li Ru's ruthlessness and bottom line are by no means comparable to Guo Wen's children of this family, otherwise in the original history, how could he assist Dong Zhuo to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes.
Even in this time and space, Su Chen didn't dare to underestimate this seemingly harmless person, as if a finger could pinch him to death, but if you really think so, then you are very wrong.
In terms of ruthlessness and viciousness, perhaps in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, there is only one person who is better than him, and this person is the famous poisoner Jia Xu.
Unlike Li Ru, Jia Xu can be said to be from a famous family, the ancestor Jia Yi, a famous scholar of the Western Han Dynasty, known as Jia Sheng, even Taishi Gong also passed it on with Qu Yuan, and later generations called it "Qu Jia".
Jia Xu's great-grandfather Jia Xiuyu was once the Taishou of Wuwei, his grandfather Jia Yan was the assassin of Yanzhou, and his father Jia Gong was the general of light cavalry, and his descendants were all high-ranking officials, which mostly depended on Jia Xu's self-preservation.
Jia Xu once proposed the five realms of strategists: seeking oneself, seeking others, seeking soldiers, seeking the country, and seeking the world.
Only such a person can make future generations stand tall and enjoy wealth in the previous battles for the throne.
Su Chen walked into the courtyard and found that Li Su was not there, thinking that he had gone home to visit his family.
As soon as he entered the door, Li Ru greeted him and said hello again: "Congratulations on the wedding of the son, Li has been waiting for a long time." ”
"Please!"
Ming people don't say secret words, Su Chen sat down and asked straight to the point: "Li Gong is here, I don't know what Dong Zhonglang will order?" ”
With the current status and strength of the Su family, it is impossible to wrestle with Dong Zhuo, although the three major grandmasters endorse him, he still puts his posture very low.
Li Ru listened to it and said with a smile: "Gongzi is serious, Gongzi and General Li are friends for eight worships, and now General Li is deeply valued by his father-in-law, so in this way, we are all a family." ”
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and said: "Speaking of which, my father-in-law can be promoted to Zhonglang General, thanks to Gongzi and his son, if it weren't for Gao Changshi and Su Sima's big victory in the battle of Xianbei, my father-in-law would not be able to be crowned a marquis because of his official duties, so my father-in-law was thinking about Ling Zun in the market, saying that Su's father and son, a double master, only hated him for being busy with official business, and he was destined to be a friend." ”
"I don't dare to praise Dong Gong, my father just did his duty." Su Chen just listened to this, but he didn't dare to take it seriously.
After that, he further said: "My father often tells me about Dong Gong's heroic deeds, and I also admire it, and my Su family often has business dealings with the Xiongnu tribe, and I need Dong Gong to take care of it more in the future." ”
"Support each other, support each other!"
Li Ru is not modest, as soon as Duan Ying died, Wang Fu fell again, and Dong Zhuo's in the court suddenly had no backer. If the original Su family couldn't get into Dong Zhuo's eyes, the Su family has now become Cai Yong's in-laws, and Su Chen is Cai Yong's son-in-law and disciple, becoming a clear stream.
Moreover, coupled with the fact that Wang Yue is his master, such a large force can't help but Dong Zhuo doesn't pay attention to it, and now he has treated the Su family as an ally. That's why Li Ru was sent to say goodbye.
After Li Ru saw the three great masters gathered, he had another feeling in his heart, although the Su family had not yet risen at this time, but the potential of the hidden dragon had been achieved, and when the time came, he would be able to roar for nine days, thinking about it, he should go to a higher level to treat the Su family.
The other party intended to make friends, Su Chen did not shirk, and talked about the horse business, Li Ru followed Dong Zhuo's instructions, and also intended to deepen the relationship with the Su family, the two hit it off, and negotiated the horse business in less than a stick of incense.
Li Ru patted his chest and said that he could trade 3,000 war horses and 10,000 horses with the Su family every year, but Su Chen did not accept his proposal, but exchanged all of them for horses, and finally the two negotiated a deal, 20,000 horses per year, exchanged for Su wine, grain and refined iron.
Looking at the other party's confused expression, of course Su Chen would not explain, if everyone knew that his Su family had something that turned a horse into a war horse, it would be troublesome, at least for the current Su family.
Su Shuang is not worried about it, not to mention the kinship between the two families, just in terms of interests, Su Shuang will not shout everywhere, after all, he can become a big businessman in Zhongshan, if he doesn't even have this bit of faith, who else will want to do business with him in the future. What's more, the two families are still grasshoppers on the same rope, and they are a community of interests.
Next, Su Chen also expressed his admiration for Dong Gong, he is now an adult, and he is the de facto head of the Su family, in the face of Li Ru, he only needs to interact with his peers, and the other party does not dare to underestimate him.
After talking about the matter, Li Ru resigned, his goal had been achieved, not to mention that he also needed to send the news here back as soon as possible, so that the Su family could attract Dong Zhuo's attention.
Not only Li Ru, the next day, the guests who came from afar said goodbye one after another, Su Chen was dragged by his father to see them off one by one, and finally when it was Tong Yuan and Li Yan's turn, Su Chen asked with a little meaning: "Uncle Tong, Uncle Li, are you two also ready to go back?" ”
"Yes, come out and drink a glass of your boy's wedding wine, it's time to leave." It was still Tong Yuan who spoke, "Besides, I came out with my second brother just for the sake of a heart, look at this old guy's apprentice, now that the goal has been achieved, it's time for me and my second brother to go back to retreat, this retreat, if the two of us don't break through to the realm of divine martial arts, I'm afraid we won't go out of the mountain." ”
And so it was!
Su Chen pondered for a while, but still mustered up the courage to say: "Uncle Shi, my nephew knows a little about divination, if Uncle Shi believes in my nephew, you might as well take a detour to Changshan Zhending, there is a family surnamed Zhao, there should be a future apprentice of Uncle Shi!" ”
"Oh?" When Tong Yuan heard this, he looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Shouldn't you be a confidant with that surnamed Zhao, that's why you recommend him to me." ”
"Naturally not!" In fact, Su Chen also hesitated for a long time, according to records, Changshan Zhao Zilong is Tong Yuan's closed disciple, because of his chance, Tong Yuan will retreat when he goes back this time, so in this way, Zhao Zilong and his master-apprentice relationship will be cut off soon?
Although he may have one more powerful opponent in the future, when he looks at the Three Kingdoms in later generations, he especially likes the loyal and righteous Changshan Zhao Zilong, and if he ruins his opportunity with his own hands, he will feel deeply uneasy in his heart.
Moreover, with his current relationship with Tong Yuan, coupled with the Seven-Star Dragon Yuan Sword in his hand, and the grace of his recommendation today, after Zhao Yun Xuecheng descended the mountain, he would at least come to him to take a look in the future.
At that time, he was confident that he would retain this future second fierce general in the world, so after thinking twice, he still recommended Zhao Yun to Tong Yuan.
Tong Yuan saw that he was not lying at all, and he no longer delved into it, nodded and said: "Okay, although the first two apprentices of the old man have good qualifications, they can't inherit the mantle after all, Wang Lao'er has accepted a good apprentice, and the second brother has also accepted a good apprentice, this time I will believe you, go to Changshan and really go to a trip, if your words are true, it will come from your benefits!" ”
Su Chen didn't ask what the benefits were, and he didn't care, Tong Yuan could pass on all the Seven Star Dragon Yuan Swords to him, which in itself was a great benefit.
Before leaving, Su Chen asked the housekeeper to send two carts of Wuyuan Immortal Liquor, he knew that the two uncles were good drinkers, but he didn't care about gold and silver and other vulgar things, so he had no long things, and gave two carts of fine wine, which was in line with the hearts of the two.
After sending Tong Yuan away, Su Chen thought in his heart: Zhao Zilong, Zhao Zilong, I can only help you get here, if you really have a fate with Tong Yuan, I believe that under the guidance of the longevity formula, I am afraid that the height of your life will surpass that number one military general in the world.
"I hope I won't regret what happened today in the future!"
It's not that Su Chen is not confident, it's that he is too jealous of the talents of famous generals like Lu Bu and Zhao Yun, once they are given good soil, they will definitely grow into towering trees.
If Zhao Yun still followed Liu Bei in the future, he would have nothing to say, but no matter what, he believed that the two would not be enemies in the future, after all, he was the loyal and righteous Zhao Zilong through the ages.
After sending off all the guests, Su Chen returned to the small courtyard and accompanied Cai Yan with peace of mind.
He had been messing with Cai Yan for a month before he was pulled out of the gentle township by Gao Shun on the grounds that the envoy from Luoyang had arrived.
What is the matter with this messenger?
It turned out that Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong also sent people to prepare congratulatory gifts to congratulate Su Chen on his wedding, of course, Su Chen's return gift was more than ten times more than that congratulatory gift.
He begged Zhang Rang for two main things, the first thing was the ownership of Wuyuan Taishou, he spent twice as much money to buy officials in order to let Gao Shun replace Wang Zhi as the new Taishou, and one of them went into Zhang Rang's pocket.
Fortunately, the Su family now has a big business, and it is not a problem to take out this money, so it can be said that they haven't blinked.
The second thing was to ask Zhang Rang to help advise the emperor to pardon Cai Yong's crime of exile and allow him to temporarily reside in Wuyuan on the grounds that Cai Yong was old and sick.
Zhang Rang failed to do these two things, so he ordered the envoy to come and explain the situation.
The other party meant to let him wait, because now the eunuchs of the imperial court are pinching each other with Situ Liu He and Wei Wei Yangqiu, and at this juncture, it is not good to discuss Cai Yong's affairs, so as not to be caught by the other party.
Su Chen had no choice but to wait slowly, and after a few months, he finally saw the moon when the clouds opened, and there was really good news from the imperial court.
