Qin Xu originally only planned to use the speculation of what might happen in Hebei to arouse Lu Bu's interest in Hebei. As long as Lu Bu revealed that he wanted to take action against Hebei, Qin Xu believed that with Cao Cao's suspicious temperament, and although the control of the state was in hand, the power of the Yuan clan could not be eliminated in one or two days after all, and Cao Cao's control of the state was far from being as detailed as it seemed on the surface, so he would inevitably turn his attention to it. In this way, the danger of Wancheng may be delayed for a while, at least it can buy Jia Xu enough time to plan.

But this sudden delivery by Hao Zhao was very likely to be information from Zhen Jiang, the second lady of the Zhen family, but even Qin Xu himself was taken aback. Needless to say, the strength of the Zhen family is self-explanatory, and there is no possibility of joking about this matter at all, and there is a dark shadow, and it is impossible for the conversation between him and Jia Xu to be known by the girl in advance, so this news that seems to be annotating the slightly exaggerated words he just made is very likely to be true.

Lu Bushang was pondering the situation in Hebei analyzed by Qin Xu, Zhang Miao lowered his eyelids, and seemed to have no interest in it, but knelt behind Zhang Miao, as if he was serving Zhang Miao, who was already slightly drunk, although he also lowered his head since he came in, he was listening with his ears on his ears.

Liu Bei, this is going crazy! Qin Xu's almost paranoid obsession with Liu Bei, both in history. Or in the actual contact, there is a deep experience. It is almost every time there is Liu Bei's peace, whether it is the pacification of Beihai or the Pingyuan fraud case. Or the battle for Hebei, although the final result was that Lu Bujun's side won, but every time it actually didn't get too much favor. Liu Bei was released by Kong Rong when he was in Beihai, but Kong Rong almost took Linzi when Lu Bu and Qin Xu went to Xuzhou; The plain fraud case caused Lü Bu's army to lose nearly 100,000 precious stones of grain and grass in the most difficult drought in the Central Plains, which almost made Lü Bu have the idea of abandoning the plain from the realm; Not to mention all the things in Hebei, whether it is the attack and defense of the plains, or the battle for Yecheng. In fact, the number of victories and defeats is only two, and even Lu Bu was almost killed by Liu Bei with a poisoned arrow because of Zhang Fei's matter. And this time. Liu, who has never stopped, even dared to hit the idea of Jizhou, how did Lu Bu think about this Han clan relative Qin Xu, who was ignored and even despised by him in the past, didn't know, but Qin Xu thought about it. If Liu Bei is allowed to toss like this again. With the few pieces of material around Yuan Shang now, it may not be Liu Bei's opponent, and it is difficult to say what the future holds.

"Can this be verified?" Lu Bu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked. Based on Qin Xu's understanding, under normal circumstances, when Lu Bu asks such a word, it means that he has heard the words in his heart and begins to consider whether he wants to take action.

"Don't worry, my lord. The intelligence sources of our army on the Hebei side are still quite powerful. This news is a top-secret message from the inside line that the other party placed in Yuan Shang's mansion. The inner line is extremely high-level in Yuan Shangfu, and it can completely touch the most core things. Therefore, there is no doubt about the authenticity of this news! Qin Xu said with an oath.

"Huh? We...... Ahem, then in your opinion, how should Hebei deal with it? Since the previous Yuan Shang's mother and son and Tian Feng and others returned to Yecheng, they have been paying tribute to the army, and they have always been respectful and full of respect, and they have been careful not to find fault with the number of annual rituals for us. If this matter is difficult to prove, it is true, but we are not too good to interfere too much in the affairs of Jizhou, right? Lu Bu was almost about to question most of the compliments in Qin Xu's words, but it was also thanks to Qin's eyelids that were about to blink and cramp, so Lu Wenhou suddenly changed the topic and said the scruples in his heart.

"My lord! Rong Xu said something inappropriate, at the beginning of your struggle, but because Yuan Ben originally expressed you as a Qingzhou pastor, you have soared to the sky since then, Yuan Gong's great kindness, we have not repaid it! Now that the original is gone, only orphans and widows are left, and Jizhou is withered, Gongsun Zhan's old enemy is still in the north, Yuan's rebellious thief is immortal in the west, and there are unscrupulous people in the south who covet the foundation, and now there is Liu Bei in the east, a thief who wants to be confused! Whether it is from your responsibilities as a general, or from repaying Yuan Gong's kindness in the past, for this Hebei will encounter something, it is the responsibility of the public and private, and the lord is duty-bound, how can it be said that it is interfering in the affairs of Jizhou? According to Xu, if Yuan Shang's mother and son may misunderstand the actions of the lord before they know the truth, but after knowing the truth, they will inevitably feel inexplicable admiration for the lord, that is, Yuan Benchu, who is already under Jiuquan, must also be grateful to the lord for protecting his wife and children, and will not be deceived by the hypocritical Liu Xuande! The lord has the heart of a benevolent man, and he does this righteous thing, and after the people of the world know the truth, they will inevitably praise the friendship between the lord and the original prince who entrusts his wife and children! Listening to Lu Bu's concerns, Qin Xu glanced at Zhang Miao and the others with a smile, and said righteously.

"Ahem!" Qin Xu's eloquence is now very famous in the Central Plains and Hebei. Others only know that Xu Yu was once hit by a trick and vomited blood angrily, Cao Cao was also hit, and the headache that was scolded was cured, but it was just a legend. Now that he has seen Qin Xu's ability to almost say that a dead person is alive, reversing black and white is a matter of seeking a family's foundation, saying such a righteous and awe-inspiring thing, Zhang Miao is okay to say, but he looked at Qin Someone, the "son of the old man", and looked a little bitter, but the servant behind him with a suspicious identity showed that he was choked by such bottomless words and couldn't breathe. Zhang Miao, who was disgusted, glanced at it meaningfully several times, and barely lost his temper.

"You kid, one mouth is worth a thousand soldiers." Lu Bu was also stunned, but after all, he was used to hearing Qin Xu's "high theory" that often popped up, and he recovered very quickly, scolded Qin Xu with a smile, and said, "But what you say is quite an appetite for so-and-so!" Yuan Benchu was an official in the same dynasty as a certain person, and he was a friend who was as close as a brother, how could he sit back and watch his widow and heir be deceived by the villain, and give away the foundation that he had worked so hard to lay at the beginning? This is indeed something to be taken care of! It's just that...... Now that the time for the summer harvest is approaching, if the mobilization of troops will inevitably affect the harvest of the entire territory of the army, how can a certain person bear to let the people in this territory repay the original favor for a certain one? ”

"The lord is too worried!" Lu Bu has said everything here, and he basically agrees with Qin Xu's advice. The reason why I got involved with these again may also be because I noticed that there was another ghostly character around Zhang Miao, and seeing that Qin Xu seemed to have other intentions in his words, out of years of "tacit understanding", Lu Wenhou also quickly "entered the play" and followed Qin Xu's meaning. For Lu Bu's cooperation, Qin Xu only wanted to his thumb, and glanced at the Miao Congren who was listening attentively with the corner of his eye, and then Lu Bu said: "The lord doesn't know, now in addition to Qingzhou and Xuzhou are planting grain, Yangzhou Jingzhou is planted with rice, and the farming time can be completely staggered, and although this time under Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and other peerless fierce generals are minions, but after all, there are only 20,000 soldiers and horses, and they have to guard the land of the two counties. Our army does not say that the lord is known as the first fierce general in the world, and Guan Zhang is a defeated general under the lord, that is, the two generals of Dian Wei and Huang Zhong, and they may not be weaker than those three people, so the troops and horses mobilized do not need too much, and they will not delay the auxiliary army and agricultural affairs. And according to the recent census statistics of Lord Sima Zanghong, although Qingzhou now has a standing army of 70,000 people, but in the past few years, because of the policy of displaced people, plus the benevolent and righteous people of the previous Muhua lord, there are nearly 300,000 households in Linzi County alone, and the population of the seven counties in the whole state has nearly 800,000 households, a total of nearly 4 million people, although Xuzhou is not as good as Qingzhou, but the six counties also have nearly 500,000 households, more than 2 million people! The land in these two states alone accounts for one-third of the total land, and it is not the time when there was a great drought three years ago, and people are helpless. Moreover, although the lord is supporting the righteousness and going out to fight this time, the purpose is also to help Jizhou not fall into the hands of villains, even if the lord is high-spirited, he will not go to the orphans and widows of Yuan Benchu's family in Jizhou to worry about the loss of personnel and armor brought to the army because of this matter, but there is a saying that the emperor is not bad hungry soldiers, we bother to do our best to run for it, this money and food, but it is not good not to support some, right? ”

Shameless! Before the servants behind Zhang Miao could finish listening to Qin Xu's tirade, their eyes were almost bursting into flames. Indeed, this person is placed next to Zhang Miao, and it was personally arranged by Cao Cao Cheng Yu, after all, Zhang Miao is also a Yanzhou official anyway, even if he was treated coldly by Cao Cao, and sent to Linzi on an errand to show that he Cao is a person with a broad mind and magnificence, but if Zhang Miao is really short of a tendon, he really swaggered to Lu Bu, and Cao Cao's face must not be very good-looking, so he sent a person to "take care" of his former friend of Cao Cao along the way, which became the reason for this person to come to Linzi. And before this person came to Linzi, he didn't hear his own Shangfeng say that in Linzi, Lu Bu was actually not the most difficult to mess with. After all, Lu Bu's terrifying thing lies in the force, and there were some rumors that Lu Bu was moody, mean, and inconsiderate of the people below, but from what he saw and heard in Linzi, it was just the opposite of the current Lu Bu, and he saw Lu Bu talking with Zhang Miao very happily, and his words were quite bold and straightforward, and it was not as terrifying as the rumors. But as Lu Bu's son-in-law, Qin Xu, the second person in Lu Bujun, is different, it is said that this guy is from a humble background, and he can't pick his shoulders, he can't lift his hands, he can't go to the battlefield, and he can't go down to the study, so he can only rely on a sharp mouth and cunning tricks. Originally, this person was still thinking that Qin Xu was now a famous figure all over the world, Ping Huang Turban, Warring States thief, and saving the Son of Heaven were also considered to be outstanding achievements, and I heard that he had never been defeated since he came out of the mountain, and even his own lord Cao Cao had not been favored by his subordinates, and finally embroidered this person's name under the robe. is such a character, no matter how you say it, it should be a no-void person under the fame, but since seeing Qin Xu, this has changed his opinion. I only feel that my own Shangfeng must have a friendship with this Qin someone. Where can this guy be just a mouthful! The viciousness of his intentions, the ruthlessness of his schemes, and the thickness of his cheeks have simply subverted the once pure worldview of people...... (To be continued......)
