The strange guest, aged about forty years old, with a mediocre appearance, dull eyes, and a black dress covering his body, silently followed Yang Hong to the secret room, and opened the burden in his hand with a calm expression. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Yang Hong's small eyes immediately narrowed together, and he took a closer look with a smile, and then picked up a silver ingot and checked it in his hand.

"In these troubled times, there is nothing better than real money. It's just that although the silver of the white flowers is a good thing, it must also be worth it! ”

Yang Hong put the silver ingot back, clapped his hands gently, and said sarcastically: "Your Excellency, are you from Hebei?" ”

The man in black was stunned for a moment, and then praised: "Yang Changshi really has good eyesight, he doesn't say secret words in front of the Ming people, and he is from General Han's command!" ”

Yang Hong nodded with satisfaction, and said: "I'm a person, I like to get straight to the point, since Your Excellency is also a happy person, then let's also tell the purpose of your trip." ”

The man in black completely opened the package, revealing the white flowers inside, which made Yang Hong's breathing heavier and his heart beat faster.

"Fifty catties of high-grade silver, just to exchange Yang Changshi's words!"

Yang Hong asked with a smile, "Is it just that simple?" ”

The man in black nodded heavily, "It's that simple! ”

Yang Hong snorted coldly, "What kind of sentence is that?" ”

The man in black said: "Suggest in front of the general, send troops to attack Cao!" Cao Jun has been fighting for many years, and now it is sleepy and tired, with the courage of the tiger and wolf under the command of the general, it will be possible to get Yan and Henan without much effort, recover the old capital, and become famous all over the world! ”

"Send troops to attack Cao?"

Yang Hong's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and then he chuckled and clapped his palms and said: "Xi'an Pinghou is really calculating, the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman profits." With only fifty catties of silver, you can sit back and watch my lord and Cao Mengde lose both, and it is really worthy of being a talent who has only been produced by the Han Dynasty in a hundred years! ”

The man in black also smiled: "If the general and Yang Changshi are willing to retreat in this mere county, I won't be here today!" In the land of the Central Plains, since the general is not interested, he can only wait for my lord to personally lead 100,000 iron horsemen to the south to fetch it! ”

The words of the man in black deeply hurt Yang Hong's self-esteem. It is true that he is greedy and loves money, but he is also loyal to Yuan Shu, because he knows very well in his heart that everything he has now is based on Yuan Shu's trust in him. Therefore, it is impossible for him to betray Yuan Shao.

Gritting his teeth fiercely, Yang Hong clenched his fists, glared coldly at the man in black, and said word by word: "Aren't you afraid of death?" ”

The man in black smiled and said indifferently: "After I die, my family will be taken care of, and I will receive a large amount of bereavement." My son is studying at Jinyang Academy, and he will definitely do something in the future. Why should I be afraid of death? On the contrary, it is you Yang Changshi, today I can quietly appear in front of your house, and in the future, are you sure that our people will not appear quietly in front of your bed? I am of humble status, and my life is rotten, and it is not a pity to die. Your Yang Changshi's good future has been ruined like this, but it's a pity......"

"Shut up!"

Yang Hong slapped the table fiercely and interrupted the man in black to continue, most people who are greedy for money are afraid of death, and Yang Hong is naturally no exception.

Therefore, he could only calm himself down, and asked: "Since you covet the land of the Central Plains, why does Xi'an Pinghou not move?" ”

The man in black said: "Cao's army has been fighting for many years, and so is our army, not to mention that between Youyan and the Central Plains, there is still a Yuan Benchu, the battle of Xuzhou years ago, the reason why my lord hastily withdrew his troops is because Yuan Benchu raised troops to invade the territory, and he had to lose a good opportunity to destroy Cao and retreat to Hebei to protect himself. ”

Yang Hong twisted his beard and muttered: "Yuan Benchu and your army have clashed repeatedly, and there has never been a victory, it should not be difficult to destroy it, why is Xi'an Pinghou unwilling to send troops south?" ”

The black man smiled bitterly: "Yuan Benchu is incompetent, and he is also after the Yuan family. Runan Yuan's family, the fourth and third dukes, protégés and former officials all over the world, not to mention, in the folk prestige is also very high, if my lord has no very reason to raise troops, attracting the criticism of the world, it will be worth the loss. ”

Yang Hong nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, believing the words of the man in black, and a sense of pride also surged in his heart. Although he is not a member of the Yuan family, the lord he serves is, and he is also the official concubine of the old Yuan family, compared to Yuan Shao's "concubine" bloodline, he is not much more noble.

When he was in a good mood, Yang Hong spoke a lot more politely, and there was a hint of a smile on his face, "Then do you know that my lord and Cao Mengde are traveling together, and the relationship is irreversible, and my lord is the most affectionate, the word righteousness, I'm afraid I can't bear to send troops to bully each other!" ”

The man in black sneered: "Then Yang Changshi knows that there is also a person named Zhang Miao who traveled with the general and Cao Mengde when he was young?" The relationship between Zhang Mengzhuo and Cao Mengde is no worse than that between the general and Cao Mengde! Could it be that the general wants to be the next Zhang Mengzhuo? ”

"You are presumptuous!"

Yang Hong was angry again, only this time, it was more of a bluff, because he was poked by the man in black again in his sensitive nerves.

When they were fighting for Yuzhou, Yuan Shu and Cao Cao had already torn their faces, and at this time they were talking about friendship and love, what was it if they were not self-deception?

Glancing at the pile of white flowers and silver again, Yang Hong finally made up his mind, waved his hand impatiently and said, "The silver stays, you go!" ”

Although Yang Hong was born in a family, he was in the middle of the family, and his family was not high, and the reason why he was favored and trusted by Yuan Shu was not because of his superior talent, but because of his ability to observe words and feelings.

Yang Hong doesn't think of himself as a courtier, although there may be many who do. In his own opinion, saying the right thing on the right occasion is the most necessary wisdom, and it is also a must for a capable minister.

Yes, Yang Hong has always firmly believed that he is a capable minister.

As a capable minister, you need to share your worries and relieve your worries for the Lord. Yang Hong knew very well in his heart that Yuan Shu's ambition had swelled violently. Therefore, what he has to do is to increase Yuan Shu's confidence and let his ambition and desire completely explode.

Because, Yuan Shu's status has improved, and his status will inevitably rise with it.

This is a good thing that is both prosperous, and Yang Hong has no reason not to work hard, even if it is just to let the declining Yang family regain its former glory.

Therefore, early the next morning, Yang Hong hurried to the General's Mansion.

"What? Sending troops to attack Cao? ”

Yuan Shu, who was dozing, slammed a spirit, a strange look appeared on his face, and he looked at Yang Hong fixedly, his eyes rolling non-stop.

Yang Hong nodded calmly, although he had privately accepted Han Jun's silver, he had never had the idea of harming Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu's hands clenched two handfuls in the air, took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and waved his hand: "Sit down, tell me your reasons." ”

Yang Hongbi respectfully knelt under Yuan Shu's head, closed his eyes slightly and sorted out his thoughts, and then slowly spoke: "Last year, Cao and the thieves marched to Xuzhou twice, faced the Yellow Turban, and fought against Lu Bu, almost the whole year has been using soldiers, needless to say, the loss of grain and grass is huge, and the soldiers under his command must have become the end of the strong crossbow. On the other hand, our army, preparing for war, fighting hard with troops, high morale, and popular support is a good opportunity to collect the Central Plains. Since the Son of Heaven moved to Wancheng, Cao Mengde has not respected the holy order, disobeyed the will of heaven, and what he did was no different from the rebellious ministers and thieves. ”

Yuan Shu's fists were clenched tightly together, but he was not in a hurry to express his position.

Yang Hong took a deep breath and just wanted to continue to persuade, but saw Yuan Shuyi wave his hand towards the door and ordered: "Go and invite Yan Xiang, Ji Ling, Zhang Xun, and Chen Ji to come to the mansion." ”

Yang Hong knew in his heart that Yuan Shu had already been moved, and the reason why he summoned all these civil and military ministers was probably to listen to other people's opinions.

"If you listen to both, you will be clear, and if you listen partially, you will be dark."

Yuan Shu was able to stand out and become one of the most powerful people today. Although a large part of the reason is due to the shadow of his family background, he himself also has a certain ability and the city government.

The main book Yan Xiang, don't drive Chen Ji, the general Ji Ling, Zhang Xun, plus the long history Yang Hong who is waiting here, these are the most trusted civil and military ministers of Yuan Shu today.

In less than a stick of incense, the people arrived.

Yuan Shugao sat on the head, squinted his eyes and looked around everyone, and slowly said: "I want to send troops to the west to recover Chang'an, what do you think?" ”

Yang Hong was shocked, and almost fell to his knees on the spot, shouting "wronged, help". Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, Yang Hong has a ghost in his heart, so naturally he immediately thought of the news of his private meeting with the envoy, which was known by Yuan Shu.

But soon, Yang Hong calmed down. He is the best at observing words and feelings, and he also has the best understanding of Yuan Shu's character. If his affairs were known to Yuan Shu, I am afraid that Yuan Shu would not bother to go around the bend with him at all.

"Never!"

Yang Hong watched coldly, and Chen Ji, who was over the age of six, was the first to stand up and object: "Although Guanzhong is fertile for thousands of miles, after the Xiliang Thieves Rebellion, there is no one in ten, and the population has decreased sharply, which is no longer the choice to achieve Wang Tu's hegemony." Besides, now that Guanzhong is in the hands of Han Boyan, if the lord raises troops to attack and attracts 100,000 Youyan iron cavalry to retaliate, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss? ”

Yuan Shu's face darkened, Yang Hong immediately understood, stood up and sneered: "Is Yuan Fang Gong really planning for the Lord Gong?" ”

Chen Ji's face was gloomy, and he said angrily: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Yang Hong said leisurely: "Yuan Fanggong's father Chen Taiqiu and Han Boyan's grandfather Han Hao became the 'Yingchuan Four Chiefs' back then, if you want to say that there is no friendship between them, I'm afraid no one will believe it, right?" And as far as I know, Linglang Chen Changwen was just appointed by Han Boyan as the chief secretary of Xuzhou not long ago, and it was the time when the spring breeze was proud! ”
