Chapter 216: There is an opportunity in the chaos, and they meet as strangers
PS: Thank you for the support of the two monthly tickets of the "sick Jiaoyin" students! Bow and thank you!
What happened in Linzi in the past few days was so bizarre that the spies of other forces in the city were quite overwhelmed by the news. First of all, the exposure of the fraud cases in the Beihai Plain vaguely exposed the "good" news that Lu Bu's actual control over Qingzhou was insufficient; Before the joy passed, even more exciting news came out, Qin someone, the head of General Zuo's Mansion that Lu Bu had always relied on, actually got the collection of Kan Xuan, a traitor who claimed to be the Son of Heaven before, which made Qingzhou's strength suddenly rise a lot. The news of Kan Xuan's plundering of the rich Xuzhou is known to the world, and there must be a lot of hidden treasures, just looking at the nearly 10,000 people sent out before and after Linzi, the number of these goods can be roughly guessed, it is definitely a coveted number!
Originally, such a good thing, in addition to the sudden and poisonous forces of all parties who had been poisoned by a drought that was rare in a century, they were looking for an opportunity to get a piece of the pie, and they sent envoys to Qingzhou one after another.
As Lu Bu's quasi-son-in-law, Qin Xu presented this "big gift", not only did he not win the appreciation of his father-in-law Lu Bu, but even his official position as the head of the Qingzhou Pastoral Mansion and the Zuo General's Mansion was given by Lu Bu, who did not care about Weng's son-in-law's feelings at all. Is there anything else going on here? How much treasure did Kan Xuan have? In this case, Lu Bu's strange attitude and Qin Xu's "encounter" caused all kinds of speculations to fly around for a while, and there were different opinions. It's getting more and more confusing.
"Zhong Ming, you are so stupid, you are about to be beheaded by Sister Yan, you should be killed here!" Although he got the "task" of thoroughly investigating the fraud cases in Beihai and the Plains assigned by Lu Bu. But who let Qin someone have such a "family general" like Jia Xu who has unparalleled wisdom and a shadow in his hand, and Qin Xu still has to spend his brain cells in this strategy that is clearly made by someone who can't see the gradual and stable development of Qingzhou, it is better to lean on the blushing Lu Lingqi and Mi Zhen's soft body in the mansion, and in the name of visiting Du Yan, sneak over to learn to play chess, how fast.
"What a gentleman who is silent when watching chess, Ling'er! You see Zhen'er is not so straightforward! Pingbai was seen as a joke by Lu Lingqi. Even Qin Xu, who couldn't help but smile at Mi Zhen, had a tendency to turn black, this black and white seemed simple. But if you really get down, you can only say that it is too bullying, even Lu Lingqi, a martial arts girl, can kill Qin Xu, who loses his armor, let alone Cai Yan, who has a family history. As if to confirm what Lu Lingqi said. The smiling black-bellied beauty was not gentle at all after Qin Xu fell. With a light wave of his hand, he seemed to be a random point, and then slowly picked out the chess pieces of Qin Xu's side one by one, and he was about to suffocate Qin Xu to death. was so ugly in front of the three beauties, Rao is Qin Xu's cheekiness was a little unbearable.
"Second brother, Mr. Jia's servant sent a fire sealed letter, saying that it was something you wanted, second brother." In Qin Xu's gentle township where he was enjoying pain and happiness, when he was teased by the third daughter because his hands were too smelly, the voice of Hao Zhao, who was assigned by Beilu Bu to be in charge of the Qin Mansion's guards, came from outside the door. It can be regarded as relieving Qin Xu of the embarrassing situation.
"It seems that Mr. Wenhe's Shadow is indeed very efficient, and it has only been a few days. There is a result, well, the state is important, I'll go and see, let's count it as a draw! Qin Xu said unashamedly. In the surprised eyes of the three girls, they shamelessly messed up the chessboard, made a look of worrying about the country and the people, and took advantage of the three daughters to be careless, and escaped from this painful and happy gentle township.
"Kong Rong! Liu Bei! Jia Xu's message was very simple, only four short words, but it made Qin Xu's brows furrow. Kong Rong came in, but it was not Qin Xu's expectation, after all, half of the officials in the ruling plain were originally officials of Beihai, which was not surprising, but the name of the big-eared Liu also appeared, which made Qin Xu's heart feel cold.
Ping was originally recommended by Gongsun Zhan and led by Liu Bei, this guy has no other skills, and his martial arts are not on the table, but this ability to manipulate people's hearts and Lu Bu's Fang Tian painting halberd may not be able to penetrate the face, but it is unparalleled in the world. Although it has been some time since the Plains Kingdom returned to Qingzhou, I have to say that in the Plains, Liu Bei's influence is still not low, so what Jia Xu said about the two places will be related to Liu Bei, so he said it in the past.
Although the path taken by Liu Bei at the moment is different from that in history because of Qin Xu, it has to be said that the person chosen by history will inevitably have his chances. Since being "persuaded" by Kong Rong to take the initiative to leave the plain, Liu Bei threw himself into the arms of Gongsun Zhan, who was fighting with Yuan Shao, and Gongsun Zhan had studied under Lu Zhi with Liu Bei. Liu Bei hated Lu Bu, and Gongsun Zan was also rejected by Lu Bu to cooperate, so that the Qingzhou Thorn Shi recommended by his own family did not dare to leave Beihai City, and finally could only return to Youzhou in disgrace, and this hatred was not small. I can't say anything about this plain land, maybe there is also the shadow of that Gongsun Taishou behind it.
Kong Rong! Liu Bei! Gongsun Chan! The bright ones don't work, and the dark ones start to come? Look at it, at present, Qingzhou is busy dealing with the drought and the surrounding forces that want to fight the autumn wind, and for a while they can't spare their hands to pick up the big-eared Liu who escaped that day, as long as Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Tao Qian really enter the three families this time, it's a big deal to promise some benefits with the help of Yuan Shao's power to Youzhou to be ruthless, anyway, the battle of Yuan Shao's Gongsun in history ended with Yuan's victory, even if the situation at the end of the Han Dynasty is now very different from history, but with the power of the two states against the bitter cold Youzhou, as long as Yuan Shao is not too stupid, It should still follow the inertia of history, right? Qin Xu subconsciously broke the bamboo piece in his hand one by one.
"Recently, someone has come to the house to vote for a post? It stands to reason that it should have arrived. Qin Xu tucked the broken bamboo slip into his sleeve and asked Hao Zhao, who was standing aside. In the past few days, Qin Xu has already received the news, Yuan Shao's distance is far away, and the envoy should still be on the way, but Tao Qian doesn't know what to settle down, and he actually sent Mi Zhu, who has always been quite ambiguous with the forces of Lu Bujun in Qingzhou, as the envoy to Qingzhou to Linzi, because the journey is the closest, the first one to arrive in Linzi, after talking with Lu Bu and Guo Jia for an afternoon, they stayed in the post house with peace of mind, and they didn't know what Lu Bu commanded, so they didn't even come to Qin Xu's mansion to meet their little sister. Mi Zhen, who learned about it, was aggrieved for a long time before calming down in Du Yan's appeasement. As a nominal ally of Qingzhou, the forces of Yanzhou Cao Cao had long heard that they had sent envoys to Qingzhou to fight the autumn wind, but they had never seen it.
"This is not yet, it may be that the officials of Qingzhou came to visit the second brother before, and after being reprimanded by the lord, they didn't dare to come again, right?" Hao Zhao scratched his head, not understanding who Qin Xu was referring to, and said, "Why don't I go to the door again?" ”
"No need, I'll go by myself, there will be no danger in this Linzi City, I've worked hard for you these days, go and greet your sister." When he returned to Linzi that day, Hao Zhao and Du Yan's attitude, despite the oolong, Qin Xu was still very affectionate, seeing that Hao Zhao had been ordered by Lu Bu to guard Qin Xu's mansion in the past few days, he was quite a bit of a waste of sleep and food, and even Du Yan rarely went there, so he said.
"It's okay!" Hao Zhaohan said with a smile: "Sister said, second brother, you are now the head of the family, the most important thing, let Zhao everything focus on you as the second brother, Zhao will go to the front door to see." ”
Thanks to the company of the three beauties in the past few days, Qin Xu's immunity to his beautiful widow has increased a little, but at this time, when he heard Hao Zhao relay what Du Yan said, Du Yan's smiling and charming appearance appeared in his mind for no reason.
"Brother Zhongming, your mansion is even more difficult to enter than Wen Hou's mansion!" I just couldn't help but think, just now I was still wondering how Cao Cao, who had always been a thief in Qingzhou and had suffered a lot in Yanzhou, would not do anything at such an easy opportunity, so I saw Hao Zhao, who had just gone to the front yard, leading the two to the middle hall, and the first person was Cao Ang, who had a good personal relationship with Qin Xu and made Qin Xu regret his fate several times. It's just that Qin Xu always feels that since he left Chen Liuyi, he doesn't know what this tragic son in history has experienced, but now Cao Ang is a little less childish, and this greeting is also a little more sophisticated.
"Brother Zixiu, don't come unharmed! Not...... Komeito? How's it going? Qin Xu returned the salute perfunctorily, but his eyes were fixed on the person who was following Cao Ang, revealing a somewhat wry smile. It's no one else, but it's Qin Xu's method of following the big-eared Liu Chao Zhao Yun a year ago, and he wants to keep an "undercover" product in Chang'an, Xu Huang, Xu Gongming.
"Master Qin, I haven't seen you for a year, don't come unharmed!" Xu Huang was also a little surprised to see Qin Xu, after all, Qin Xu could be said to be very sincere at that time, and the two had agreed that if Xu Huang did not vote, he would definitely come to find Qin Xu to join Lu Bu's army, but unexpectedly, the world is unpredictable, or maybe it is the inertia of history, Xu Huang was gradually intolerable by Han Xian after offending Han Xian's nephew Han Mou because of Qin Xu, and Yang Feng, who had a good personal relationship with Han Xian, gradually alienated Xu Huang, and even made a general like Xu Huang and the attacking Ma Teng Han Sui coalition army have no chance to fight and make meritorious contributions. was sent to the Chang'an main road to carry out the "trivial matter" of blocking the news, and after discovering Cao's army, he fought a battle and was captured by Cao Cao's design. Cao Cao loved his bravery, treated him warmly, and tried his best to solicit things, Xu Huang was grateful for a while and was under Cao Ying's involuntary body, and finally lowered Cao Cao as in history. This time is also because other states are affected by the advent of the drought, and the people's hearts are fluctuating, but Qingzhou not only does not see the slightest chaos, but also obtains a large number of grain, grass and goods that "belong" to Xuzhou, under the guise of mediating disputes between Qingzhou and Xuzhou, replaced the position of Yu Ban, and served as the general of the eldest prince Cao Ang, who came to Qingzhou to fight the autumn wind, but did not expect that Cao Ang came to visit Lu Bu here, and did not know for what reason, he came to visit Qin Xu's mansion as soon as possible.
"It seems that Brother Zhong Ming is not only well-informed, but even Cao, the attendant, is also familiar with Brother Zhong Ming, it seems that Ang is not as good as you, Senior Brother-in-law!" Originally, Cao Ang called out the words that Qin Xu had just been crowned with since he saw him, and he also sighed a little at the wide range of Qin Xu's sources, but seeing that Xu Huang and Qin Xu seemed to have known each other for a long time, and they reunited after a long absence, he couldn't help but joke with a wry smile.
