Chapter 386: Plotting Chaos in Hebei (Part II)
Although the arrival of the Zhen family was reasonable, it was indeed unexpected by Qin Xu, he didn't expect that the three states of Hebei had been in chaos to such an extent.
According to the intelligence of the shadow, Yuan Tan, who had successfully accepted Yuan Shao's power in Bingzhou, was arrogant at the beginning, intending to receive Yuan Shao's "inheritance" in its entirety, but it was the idea of provoking Cao Cao, although Cao Cao was scared half to death by Cao Cao's sword and Chen Bing across the river, but after all, Cao Cao didn't want to fight on both sides because of Yuan Shu's affairs at that time, and he didn't take Yuan Tan seriously. But it's a little more inevitable.
"Yuan Tan is going to make a move on Yuan Xi!" When Qin Xu asked Jia Xu, the old poisoner of his big-name "doorman", Jia Xu thought for a while and came to this conclusion.
"Yuan Tan is afraid! Also waiting! Jia Xu sat on the low couch, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, with a casual look, and said: "The death of Yuan Shao said by the head of the Zhen family, eighty percent and these two brothers are inseparable. The secret that the two people know is no longer a secret, not to mention that even the 'outsiders' know about it. If the news comes out, Yuan Tan will inevitably make a move! ”
"It seems that Yuan Tan is still very nostalgic for the old, and he didn't start until now, he really takes into account the brotherhood!" Qin Xu sneered and said: "Okay, if our speculation is true, then this Yuan Xiansi, the pastor of Bingzhou, for the sake of the so-called foundation, killed his father and his brother, and did everything he could, and he was really a 'character'!" It's a pity, compared to Cao Cao. It's not enough to see! ”
"Cao Mengde is the hero of the world, naturally not comparable to Yuan Tan Xiao'er, but General Qin, you. Could it be that Chengming watched Cao Cao take the opportunity to seize the state and then peek into Hebei? Jia Xu didn't believe that Qin Xu came today just to chat with him about these Hebei things. has been together for two years, and Jia Xu has long understood his temper for his own "master". It's very similar to himself.,It's definitely a master who advocates prevention before it happens.,It's okay to say that you don't know about it.,Now that I've come to ask myself.,I'm definitely going to take action again.。
"I can't beat it!" Qin Xu said with a wry smile: "It's not that Wen He doesn't know. In the past two years, the soldiers under the command of the lord fought in the south and the north, and fought in the east and west, which finally stabilized the foundation of Qingxu and Xuzhou. However, one after another were natural disasters and man-made (disasters), the troops and people of the two states were extremely exhausted, and the military resources and military rations also reached a critical point that they could bear. If it is not good to recuperate, I am afraid that our army itself will be abolished! The previous Yangzhou incident. Wen He must also know. If it weren't for this drawback, how could they have done such a self-respecting strategy and allowed other forces to stir up peace there? I have already won it in one fell swoop! This is followed by Hebei's matter, and this time there is really nothing to be done! Let's take it as a bargain, Cao Cao! ”
"General Qin gave such a big gift to Cao Cao, did he have to take refuge in Cao Gong?" Jia Xu didn't know what the intention was, and suddenly came to such a sentence without a beginning or an end!
"I really wanted to come here before!" Qin Xu didn't seem to be a fake, chuckled, and followed Jia Xu's words: "I really don't know how that Meng Degong governs. The land of the three states was well governed by him. At the beginning, Yanzhou was also a succession of wars, and it never stopped. It's as if the troops and military funds can't be used up! This was the case after the Battle of the Nameless Valley at the beginning, and it was like this again after the Battle of Chang'an! Not only Qin, but also the lord has to learn how to turn stones into gold with this 'capable minister of the world, hero of troubled times'! ”
"Cao Mengde naturally won't turn stones into gold! But someone will! Jia Xu smiled weirdly and said, "General Qin's authorities are confused! Jia remembered that General Qin once said that fighting a war is logistics! As long as there is food in his hands, then Cao Cao will naturally not panic in his heart! ”
"Hmm! Wen He is talking about Hedong Wei's? Qin Xu seemed to have sensed a little bit of Jia Xu's thoughts, and asked tentatively: "But after all, the Hedong Wei clan is a great family that can be counted by the Han Dynasty, and from the fact that he only threw out a Chen Liuwei clan to contact Cao Cao, it can be seen that there are too many things between them that cannot be put on the table, and many things cannot be put on the surface, at least not for outsiders to know." So where did Cao Cao get the confidence to have so much confidence? Is it just a Chen Liuwei clan who exists in name only? ”
"There is news that Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Ang, will get married at the end of this year. Mrs. Zhengmu, it is the daughter of the Hedong Wei family......" Jia Xu looked like you understood, and winked at Qin Xu in a rare way.
"What do you mean? Are you saying that the reason why Wei helped Cao Cao so much was because he and Cao Cao became sons and daughters? Qin Xu was a little incomprehensible.
"Ahem, when General Qin married the Mi family, the Mi family's bride price was almost equivalent to the taxes paid in Qingzhou for nearly ten years at that time......" Jia Xu smacked his lips with envy and said: "There are also those three thousand families, all of whom are strong people, no less than the reserve army of our army's second combat sequence." This is just the dowry of the Mi family that did not enter the stream at that time, Hedong Wei's family, as an old family, has already lived a prominent life when Emperor Wu was in power, and the accumulation of hundreds of years, how can it be more luxurious than the Mi family? ”
"Hmm! That's right! Although Qin Xu didn't quite understand how Jia Xu was involved with him again, Qin Xu listened to this. At the beginning, in order to tie his family to the Qingzhou chariot, the Mi family made Qin Xu and Mi Zhen's good deeds, and first sent the dowry to Linzi to make it an established fact, of course Qin Xu remembered. If you want to say that your two brothers-in-law Mi Zhu and Mi Fang, the utilitarian heart is indeed stronger, but it is really not said to your own little sister. Three thousand strong families, hundreds of cars of silk and satin, treasure coins that can be used as hard currency, were dumped and moved to the Qin Mansion. Until now, Qin Xu hadn't figured out how much money was in his own treasury, but every time Hao Meng, the big housekeeper of Lu Bujun, saw him, he looked like the God of Wealth, which should be a lot.
Just like Jia Xu said, this is still just the Mi family that can be on the table in Xuzhou, with the net worth of the Mi family at that time, it is estimated that it is placed in the world of the Han Dynasty, which has almost been erected for the wealthy family, and it is estimated that it is not even a small shrimp. Just this, it is roughly estimated that the dowry alone is comparable to the ten-year tax payment in Qingzhou at that time, which shows that if the Hedong Wei family is really determined to support Cao Cao, Cao Cao will always have a large army available at critical moments as if he can't be killed. It's not so surprising.
"Wenhe, what plan do you have to teach me? Don't sell it anymore. "Playing tricks with old poisons, it's really looking for death! and Jia Xu have been fighting for so long. In the end, Qin Xu couldn't stand the defeat and asked with a wry smile.
"Hebei Zhen's! Rich enough to rival the country! Jia Xu seemed to sigh and said: "Whether it is Liu Yan or Liu Yu in Youzhou at the beginning; or Jizhou Han Fu and Yuan Shao; Even Ding Jianyang, the former master of General Lu, behind his tyranny, there is actually the shadow of the Zhen family! ”
"Wenhe, you have gone around in such a big circle, how can you say that it is like this? That's not your style! Qin Xu slapped his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Of course I know that if I can cooperate with the Zhen family." The pros definitely outweigh the disadvantages, but you don't know the situation in the lord's place. Because of Mrs. Cao's matter before, I almost even went around Qin! And. Until now, the lord is still ...... Ahem, 'don't dare' get too close to Mrs. Cao! If this comes to Mrs. Zhen again, my God, the lord will have nothing to find fault with every day! ”
"This ......" Jia Xu didn't expect Qin Xu to say so bluntly. Wen Yan touched his nose a little embarrassed. coughed lightly and said, "Jia has a record of the Zhen family's secret discussion here, and General Qin can refer to it carefully!" ”
"What the hell?" I had never seen Jia Xu so "unreliable", Qin Xu took the silk silk in Jia Xu's hand suspiciously, slandered Jia Xu's tricks, and swept it at a glance. But just looking at it like this, it almost made Qin Xu jump up from the low couch: "This girl, do you want to repay your favor or take revenge?" Wenhe. What about the back? ”
It turned out that what Jia Xu handed to Qin Xu was nothing else, it was Zhen Jian who returned to the post house in a huff. What was said and the conversation of Zhen Jiang, Zhen Kun and others. That's it, I didn't expect that behind this record, there would be something about him Qin. But when it came to Zhen Jiang "pointing" him to Zhen Jian Qin Someone, because of curiosity, he kept looking at the Luo Shen Zhen Mi who had not yet grown up at the banquet, which was causing Zhen Jian to scold, but he was persuaded by Zhen Jiang, Qin Xu was curious about how Zhen Jiang persuaded Zhen Jian, and there was no more, which made Qin Xu feel a little uneasy in his heart.
Isn't this playing with people! It's like reading a novel at a certain point in my previous life, and I was seeing the highlights, and suddenly I jumped out with a "I want to know what the future will be, and listen to the next decomposition"! It is especially possible that the old man of the Zhen family misunderstood this matter, and maybe he was trying to coerce himself, and then he was gone. If you knew this, it would be better not to look at this half-pulled information.
"The woman who Zhen Jian wants to marry General Lu is very scheming, and the ...... behind her The latter really didn't find out. Jia Xu actually blushed a little and said: "But the general meaning, Jia can deduce one or two!" ”
"Huh? Wen He ......, forget it, let it be inferred! With the power of literature and harmony! That little girl will definitely not escape from the palm of your hand! "Seeing that Jia Xu, an old poison, is rare to be so shy, if it weren't for Jia Xu's old wife and young children all in Linzi, Qin Xu would really think that Jia Xu, the old fox who knows the way of restraint and has always been wise and wise, is also a spring heart.
"This time, General Lu escaped a catastrophe, but I can't say that Jia is going to bleed again to prepare a congratulatory gift for General Qin!" Jia Xu's expression flashed with a smile, and he said to Qin Xu.
"Hmmm! Well? What the? As soon as Jia Xu's words fell, Qin Xu, who had not yet reacted, subconsciously responded, and even felt that something was wrong. What is Lu Bu who escaped a catastrophe, and he Jia Wenhe is going to bleed to congratulate him Qin someone? This seems to have something to say!
Qin Xu is not a fool. Naturally, I understand that although what Jia Xu said is a bit "alarmist", it is not impossible! Just look at what this old Zhen Tou is going to do!
Originally, Qin Xu thought that if he still put Cao Cao and Lu Bu on the same level, and planned not to offend each other, this matter would pass like this, just after a while, when Lu Bu was angry, and then he would say a few good words, and the events of the day would pass like this, after all, no one would deal with the God of Wealth, and Qin Xu had already done a "preventive shot" in front of Lu Bu when the day's events were over.
After seeing what was in Jia Xu's hand, especially the part that was finally wanted was not discovered, it was undoubtedly a little up and down in Qin Xu's heart, and he hung fifteen buckets.
Looking at the meaning of Zhen Jiang's girl, it seems that she wants to persuade the old Zhen to "plan the plan"! This made Qin Xu a little blindfolded! Although Qin Xu is not opposed to such a "win-win" "cooperation", he ...... Lu Bu's illness. He seems to have someone too!
"Wenhe, you're a monkey...... Oh no, are you the rescuer invited by Zhen Jiao? How do I feel that this thing smells of yin from the inside out. How do you look like your Jia Wenhe's handwriting? Qin Xu said suddenly. No, no, no, no! Qin Xu seemed to have a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly had a little enlightenment!
Regarding the abnormal behavior that Jia Xu has been behaving since he asked Jia Xu today, Qin Xu has no doubts. After all, Jia Xu is also a human being, and since he is a human being, there must be something wrong with it. For example, Guo Jia, it is not an exaggeration to call him the smartest person in the world, isn't he also left in Yangzhou to fight with Liu Xuan? Jia Xu is not an immortal. Naturally, there will be times when it gets stuck.
But although Jia Xu's methods of manipulating people's hearts and calculating people are first-class, this is a deception of the gong and the drum in front of the face, especially this kind of master and servant who are not master and servant. Colleagues are not colleagues, perhaps in front of Qin Xu, who has a more appropriate relationship with him as a friend and teacher, it is estimated that Lao Jia does not have much experience in this area. Just a blush and a few words that didn't go well made Qin Xu see the clues.
"This ...... General Qin laughed. It's a joke! How so! Why bother? Jia Xu touched his nose. For the first time, he smiled a little wryly and said: "Even so, it is for the great cause of General Lu, General Qin is General Lu's beloved son-in-law, this, sacrifice, it should be fine, right?" ”
"Good is like a mountain, and evil is like a collapse! This is not false at all, Jia Xu has learned even worse! Qin Xu was a little helpless.
"Actually...... Ahem. Actually, Zhong Ming, you don't have to worry that General Lu will blame you! Not to mention the tacit understanding and trust between General Lu and Zhongming, just this time, General Lu can tolerate you to save the Zhen family. And without the settlement of accounts after the autumn, it is enough to see that General Lu is actually happy to see that he can connect with the Zhen family in Hebei without his appearance! Jia Xu rarely let go of his figure, and he didn't know what nerves he had, but it was rare to look like a big brother, and he persuaded him with some bitterness: "As for the Mi family, in fact, Zhongming doesn't have to worry too much!" The Mi brothers have now entered the military system, and they are in charge of Xuzhou with Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, and they are also in charge of the money and grain exchanges between Qingxu and Xuzhou. If you really marry the Zhen family, it can be regarded as an indirect Shangmi family and the Zhen family have a bit of incense, why not do it? ”
Wen He ...... Have you ever told you that although you are wise, you can't do such persuasive work? It's too fake! Qin Xu "mercilessly" exposed Jia Xu's scheme, and said with a wry smile: "If Wen He has anything unspeakable and needs Qin's help, just say it!" It's not that you don't have a criminal record, as for making it so complicated? Or is there still someone trying to blackmail Wen and you? No! With Jia Xu's ability, if he doesn't calculate others, even if that person burns high incense, who will be so unhappy! Or is it that the old man of the Zhen family begged Wen He's head? It's not right, Wen He is a native of Wuwei Guzang, and the old Zhen Tou lives in Hebei, even if Wen He has been friends with the Zhen family for many generations, he will not work for him like this, it is not Wen He's style with you! Let someone think about it...... Not? Didn't something happen to Hebei? Wenhe wants to be like the previous times, to have a 'win-win'? ”
"General Qin seems to have seen through Jia's thoughts!" After listening to what Qin Xu said, Jia Xu's face, which was still a little sneering, seemed to be blowing in the breeze, and returned to his previous indifferent color. As if Qin Xu was not talking about him just now, he said with a light smile: "This time, regardless of whether Yuan Tan is really a murderer who wants to kill his father and brother, depending on the importance of the Zhen family, even the head of the family personally came to Qingzhou, it can be inferred that the contradiction between the two brothers of the Yuan family has reached an irreconcilable situation, and it is only a pre-war tranquility, just one opportunity, the war in Hebei is about to break out!" Jia is worried that if there is a mess in Merge Prefecture and Jizhou, Cao Cao and Youzhou Gongsun forces will definitely come in immediately! Hebei is bound to be in chaos! But no matter who wins Hebei in the end, it's not a good thing for Qingzhou! Therefore, since the Qingzhou army is tired and its combat strength is worried, it is better to simply imitate the Hebei incident in Yangzhou. Even if we don't intervene, we must not let Hebei be able to quickly reunify what our army needs! ”
"But even so, as long as the lord treats the Zhen family well! Why did you want to get Qin in the car? Qin Xu asked with a wry smile. Listening to Jia Xu's meaning, this time unconsciously, it seems that he has once again become the focus of life and death related to the life and death of Qingxu and Xuzhou, and it is still the kind that cannot be refused. But the question is, wasn't this matter obviously spread on Lu Bu's head at the beginning?
"What the Zhen family wants is peace of mind!" Jia Xu didn't have the funny just now, and still said lightly as before.
It seems that it is really a red face and trouble! Why do you have to donate yourself again just because you just "looked at her in the crowd one more time"?
"I'm embarrassed!" As a traveler, there is no immunity to this kind of thing! But think about Cai Yan with a big belly, Lu Lingqi who is carrying Fang Tian's halberd, Mi Zhen who holds the key to the treasury in the house, and Gan Qian, the big housekeeper, who are full of vinegar...... (To be continued......)
