Before Guo Jia arrived in Yecheng, Yuan Tan and Xu You had already received the news at the city gate and were waiting, Guo Jia was late, but the two of them did not have any impatience, Xu You wanted to get some benefits from Guo Jia, as for Yuan Tan, he was to behave well in front of Yuan Shao, and neither of them had any complaints.

Guo Jia got off at the city gate, and after a salute, he learned that it was Yuan Shao's eldest son, Yuan Tan, who personally greeted him, and he had expected that Yuan Shao would agree with this marriage, and he couldn't help but be a little happy.

Yuan Tan led Guo Jia to live in the pavilion, and then Yuan Tan went back to report to Yuan Shao, Xu You stayed, Guo Jia has always been in contact with Xu You, and this time he needs his help, so he has already prepared a generous gift.

"Brother Ziyuan, before leaving, my lord specially instructed that when you arrive in Yecheng, you must first visit Brother Ziyuan, Brother Ziyuan is not only Yanhou's old acquaintance, but now he is the general's henchman, this time Guo Jia also needs Brother Ziyuan's assistance."

"Where, where, I didn't expect Yan Hou to remember that he was here, which really flattered Xu You." Xu You said modestly.

Guo Jia suddenly approached his ear and said softly: "Brother Ziyuan, Yan Hou has prepared two carts of generous gifts for you, and I have asked my subordinates to secretly send them to your mansion, you can see them when you go back." ”

Sure enough, Xu You was very happy when he heard that it was beneficial: "Yanhou is really too polite, Fengxiao must thank Yanhou for me when I go back." ”

"It should." Guo Jia didn't continue to dwell on this topic, but asked tentatively: "Brother Ziyuan, what does the general think about the marriage now?" ”

As the so-called cannibalistic mouth is soft and short-handed, Xu You knows everything about Guo Jiana: "So that Fengxiao knows that the general is still more in favor of the marriage, but the general's adviser Tian Feng is very opposed, thinking that Yanhou is nominally for marriage, but in fact he is delaying time, Tian Feng is like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard, and he has been very unhappy with the general in front of him before." ”

"Brother Ziyuan, if it is said that my lord is not a sincere marriage, it is really a great wrong, my lord and the general are sworn brothers, and they are already close, and now they are close to each other, wouldn't it be good for Youzhou and Jizhou to cultivate for a hundred years?"

"Who's to say it isn't." Xu You felt the same way, "I think the general and Yanhou were like brothers, and they have been friends for more than ten years, others don't know, don't I Xu You know?" ”

"That's, Jia almost forgot, Brother Ziyuan is the old man next to the general, so I don't know what Tian Feng meant by saying these words? Who else is against him but him? Guo Jia attaches great importance to this news.

Xu You thought for a while and said: "Feng Xiao doesn't know, there are several strategists under the command of the lord now, among them, he is good friends with Tian Feng, and I am good friends with Xun Kan, and Guo Tu, yes, speaking of which, this Guo Tu is still Feng Xiao's own family, if Feng Xiao wants to promote this marriage, I am afraid that he will have to visit Guo Tu." ”

"Thank you Brother Ziyuan for your advice." Guo Tu is from Yingchuan Guo's family, Guo Jia is a side branch of Guo's family, he is reasonable, he should visit Guo Tu.

Next, Guo Jia asked some more things, and he also had a general understanding of the situation of Yuan Shao's subordinates, Yuan Shao's advisers were divided into several camps, Tian Feng was a loyal person, and he had a big view of the overall situation, but Yuan Shao couldn't use it.

Xu You is greedy for money, this kind of person is best to deal with, as for Xun Kan, the Xun family has moved to Jizhou in order to avoid chaos, Xun Kan out of Yuan Shao, but to protect the family, among the Xun family, Xun Yu is in Youzhou, Xun Kan is in Jizhou, Xun Yu is in Yanzhou, this is the usual trick of the family, diversify investment, reduce risks.

And Guo Tu and Xu You are a little discordant, the purpose of which is nothing more than to compete for favor in front of Yuan Shao, if you want Yuan Shao to agree to the marriage, it seems that he has to visit Guo Tu.

Guo Tu heard that Guo Jia, the envoy of Youzhou, was visiting, and he didn't want to see him, but anyway, the other party is now the envoy of Yanhou, and he can't trust him, so he met with Guo Jia.

Guo Tu looked down on Guo Jia in the past, but he didn't expect the other party to make a fortune now, so Guo Tu's attitude towards Guo Jia is also much better.

"Brother, I haven't seen you for a few years, don't come here unharmed?"

"Very good! Feng Xiao came to see me today, I'm afraid it's not to greet me every day, right? ”

"Brother, what are you talking about, when Jia Chu arrived in Yecheng, he should come to visit his brother because of his feelings, could it be that his brother is not from the Guo clan?"

Guo Jia's rhetorical question forced Guo Tu into a corner, Guo Tu also put down his identity, and said: "Fengxiao's words are bad, Fengxiao is now deeply used by Yanhou, but it is a good thing for my Guo family, in this troubled era as an official, family strength is particularly important, Fengxiao will contact the family more in the future." ”

"Brother taught me a lesson!" Guo Jia immediately handed over a gift list and said: "Yan Hou knows that his brother is very important under the command of the general, so he prepared a generous gift, and before leaving, he repeatedly told me that after arriving in Yecheng, he must come to visit his brother as soon as possible. ”

"Oh? Did Yan Hou really say that? "Guo Tu's next gift list, open it and take a look, hiss! Good guy, this gift is really not light, the key is that he can't refuse, because half of this gift is books, the books produced in Youzhou are things that can only be used by nobles in the world, and the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce does not sell them to merchants, so even if you are rich and do not have a certain identity, you can't buy it, so this thing is precious.

Guo Tu put down the gift list and thanked him sincerely: "Fengxiao, you go back to thank Yanhou for the gift on my behalf, in fact, I also agree with the marriage, after all, in the whole world, there are not many who can match the general's beloved daughter, Yanhou's eldest son is both civil and military, and he was made a marquis by Emperor Ling when he was a teenager, it can be said that in the eyes of the world, the general's beloved daughter married the eldest son of Yanhou, that is a talented woman, and the door is right." ”

"My brother is right, tomorrow the general will summon me, and I hope my brother will say a few more kind words." When Guo Jia saw him say this, he knew that he was also in favor of marriage.

"Bong Xian rest assured, I will definitely contribute to this good relationship."

"Najia won't bother, let's retire first!"

"Go ahead!"

Guo Jia visited Xun Kan overnight, Xun Kan and Xun You are clansmen, there is Xun You's letter, Xun Kan has nothing to say, and immediately said that he will definitely promote this marriage tomorrow.

Guo Jia originally wanted to visit the former division commander, but there was not enough time, Yuan Shao would summon him tomorrow, and he had to persuade Yuan Shao to facilitate this marriage, which was the most important task of his trip, and it was also related to the future of Youzhou.
