"Mr. Guo, it's not good!" Just as Guo Tu couldn't get to see Lu Bu because he wanted to see him, he just got a good deal of words from the front of Lu Bu's mansion, but he was ridiculed by Sima Mao for a while, and he was lost face by Qin Xu, and he was thinking about whether to write a letter to Yuan Shao, who was anxiously waiting, and thought about saying more bad things about Lu Bu. Thinking of the scene where Lu Bu's army was shattered at that time, and Qin Xu and Sima Mao knelt in front of him begging for mercy, Guo Tu's eyes flashed with a little excitement, but before Guo Tu could wake up from his dream, he was interrupted by the shouting of the servants who came.

"What's the alarm? Could it be that Lu Bu was determined to go against the lord and sent troops to arrest me? Guo Tu had a ghost in his heart, and he jumped up like a rabbit and asked anxiously.

"No, Lu Bu didn't make any changes, but now there are people in Linzi City who are deliberately spreading the news, and the words spread are extremely unfavorable to Yuan Gong and Mr. Guo!" Seeing Guo Tu's reaction like a frightened bird, he didn't dare to talk about anything else, and hurriedly said: "They said that Yuan Gong sent Mr. Guo to Linzi this time, in order to trick Lu Bu into promising to help Yuan Gong with all his might, and after the matter is completed, he will cross the river and demolish the bridge to calculate Qingzhou; What else did Yuan Gong say that he wanted to set up a new emperor before, and he planned to 'coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes' or something, in short, it was not very good, and now it has been spread all over the city, and according to small observations, there are also a lot of eyeliners of other forces around our post house. ”

"What? Have you ever found out where this information came from? But are you waiting for someone to leak out? After Guo Tu listened to what people said, his face immediately changed. This is good from what the person just said, if Yuan Shaode knows, where will it be unfavorable to himself, it is simply to roast Guo Tu on Yuan Shao's anger. "Coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes", this is just a matter of saying it in private, can it be spread casually? Now the Han court is still there, the Son of Heaven is the orthodox surname Liu, although he has been in the hands of thieves for a year, but he is still the nominal head of the Han Dynasty, not to mention the coercion of the Son of Heaven, if it is placed in the previous few years, this crime of slandering the Son of Heaven and attempting to rebel is enough to make the Yuan family, the family of the four generations and the three princes, become the target of the world.

"Mr. Guo, this is the first time I have heard of such a big event, even the small one, and I thought that Cao Ying deliberately spread rumors to smear the lord and Mr. Guo......" Congren hurriedly argued, it can be seen that Guo Tu's gaze became more and more ruthless, which suddenly reacted to the fact that what he said just now was extremely inappropriate, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

"Cao Ying! It must have been Cao Yingyou's spy in Jizhou who got the news and ordered his envoy to spread it in Linzi, the purpose of which was to make Lu Bu hesitate about his reputation and not dare to bear the infamy again! Sending away the honest and frightened servants, Guo Tu turned around in place a few times, suddenly slammed his hand, looked at the direction of Cao Ang's residence of Cao Ying's envoy, and said to himself with certainty.

"Young Master, General Qin is here!" Cao Ang has been in Linzi for two months. Before Qin Xu went to Xuzhou, Cao Ang, who had received 30,000 stone of military rations, really wanted to ask his father for help in Xuzhou for Qingzhou to say a fair word. After all, what Qin Xu said at that time was quite reasonable, and he took the initiative to ask Cao Ying to help preside over "justice", and even helped generously when the drought in Yanzhou was also quite serious, so that Cao Ang had a good impression of Qin's "senior brother-in-law".

But before Cao Ang sent the written letter back to Cao Ying, who was in the division to reorganize the army, the news of Qin Xu in Xuzhou kept coming, first he was attacked and defeated by foreign cavalry halfway, and then helped Xuzhou to drive Yuan Shu away, and finally Tao Qian gave him Xuzhou, which Cao Ying had coveted for a long time, before his death, Cao Ang had no other ideas, but felt that since Xuzhou had changed hands, the previous thing he asked for was gone, so he got 30,000 stone of military rations, and Lu Bu had no intention of going back. It made this honest boy feel a little guilty that he couldn't help Qin Xu but took the benefits in vain.

Coupled with the fact that Yuan Shao's envoy has arrived belatedly but has brought a "request" to pick Cao Ying's peaches, Yanzhou may be facing a situation where he is facing enemies on three sides, and at this time, Lu Bu's attitude is crucial. Although he did not explicitly agree to Yuan Shao's request, and even turned away Yuan's envoy, he had no intention of contacting Cao Ying, which made Cao Ang unable to let go for several days.

When Cao Ang was waiting for his father to reply to the letter on the handling of this matter, he suddenly got Xu Huang's communication, which almost made Cao Ang think that he had heard it wrong, and he thought that Qin Xu, who was in Xuzhou, was visiting at this juncture, which was enough to explain a lot of problems.

"Please, see you in a change of clothes!" Cao Ang hurriedly commanded. Although he was a little embarrassed in the face of Qin Xu, he urgently needed to know Lu Bujun's attitude before Cao Ying replied to the letter, and Cao Ang couldn't help but pay attention to it. Besides, because he got so much military rations before, and he felt quite close to Qin Xu, he was still persuading Qin Xu not to be sad because he was taken off his official position, and in the blink of an eye, Qin Xu was already a general of Fenwu, the assassin of Xuzhou, and he was in charge of an army of 20,000 people in his hands, and he was a figure with the same official position as his father on the surface, no matter how free and easy Cao Ang was, he still had envy in his heart, and he wanted to see how Qin Xu did it.

"No!" Xu Huang responded. In fact, Xu Huang was also very surprised, if it weren't for Cao Ang in Linzi, Xu Huang wouldn't want to stay longer for a moment. For Qin Xu, the first person to throw an olive branch to himself, Xu Huang always felt a little guilty of being untrustworthy when he saw Qin Xu. In fact, at that time, Qin Xu's clumsy solicitation methods, Xu Huang had already noticed, but at that time, Qin was just the lowest level of the internal government master among the subordinate officials of General Fenwu, which was similar to the housekeeper in a large family, and Xu Huang was already a cavalry captain, the gap was not only the ratio of cloud and mud, although due to the situation at the time, Xu Huang did not explicitly refuse, and always felt that Lu Bu was so embarrassed to defeat Chang'an, and the chance of a comeback was very slim, even if he had to save his surname, he must be a wolf who was chased by others, wandering around, He didn't take the heart-to-heart words that Qin Xu said before to heart. But who would have thought that it was only a year ago, not only did Lu Bu gain a foothold in Qingzhou, but Qin someone, who had not been taken to heart by himself before, also had this encounter from a family general.

"Qin Envoy Jun! Ang said before that his brother would definitely not hide in the mud and sand, and before he thought about a farewell for two months, his brother had already become a state assassin, General Fenwu, it was really gratifying! "After Cao Ang returned to Chenliu from Qingzhou as a proton, he followed Cao Ying's strategists to learn the mental art of the superior, although it was not mature, but after these two meetings, it was a lot more mature than before, and this time he came to Qingzhou as a representative of the Cao army forces in Yanzhou, and it can be seen that Lao Cao's hopes for Cao Ang, the eldest son who is much older than other sons, are quite large. Seeing this official rhetoric, what he said became more and more the demeanor of a young lord of a state.

"Brother Zi Xiu, don't do this! You and I have fellowship, the righteousness of friends, and it is thanks to Brother Meng's enlightenment that Xu will not be depressed, if this meeting is related to official state affairs, it seems far away! Qin Xu looked humble and said very sincerely.

"What Brother Zhongming said is, but I don't know that my brother suddenly returned to Linzi this time, and he didn't rest for a few days before coming to find Ang, but there is something to teach him?" After all, Cao Ang is only seventeen years old, not as good as Qin Xu, an old man, even if he has learned some tricks and changes, he still can't bear the surname after all, and after seeing Qin Xu's greetings, he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, and he also knew that Qin Xu must have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, so he asked.

"What? The matter between you and Yuan Benchu in Jizhou has already spread, does Brother Zixiu still want to hide it from the younger brother? Seeing Cao Ang asking, Qin Xu immediately made a smirk and said with a displeased: "The junior brother is here to ask General Lu if this news is the final decision made by General Cao." ”

"Something with Yuan Shao? What Brother Zhong Ming said, but a few days ago, the Yuan family in Jizhou also wanted to welcome the Son of Heaven? Cao Ang was also confused, since he learned that Yuan Shao wanted to send troops from Hanoi with Lu Bu to attack Chang'an by shortcut, Cao Ang was young and did not dare to specialize, did not dare to specialize, sent a letter to Cao Ying, who was far away in Sili, even if it was six hundred miles expedited, the fastest round trip would take five or six days, these days happened to be the time when Cao Ying sent a reply, Cao Ang had been waiting in the post house, and the news that was now known to the spies of various forces in Linzi City was not clear, and now he was asked by Qin Xu, and he was stunned and asked tentatively.

"Brother Mo Feizi really doesn't know? It shouldn't be! Qin Xu pretended to be puzzled, and said hesitantly: "Recently, there was a news circulating in Linzi City, saying that the original intention of Jizhou Yuan to unite with my lord Lu Wenhou to 'help' General Ling Zun Cao and save the Son of Heaven in danger was actually to do the thing of 'coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes', and said that the source of this news is very likely to be transmitted by you, and it is also extremely consistent with Ling Zun's style', so this time Qin came here, it was on behalf of my family, Gonggong General Lu, who came to inquire about General Cao's meaning! If there is any misunderstanding with Yuan Benchu, Wen Hou sees that the two families are for the sake of supporting the Han, and he is willing to mediate one or two. ”

"Huh? How? This ...... "Cao Ang is young after all, although he has been learning government affairs by the side of Cao Ying's Neng Chen for a long time, and recently he has been learning the art of power and contrivance, but when he heard what Qin Xu said, Cao Ang was still taken aback. Cao Ang knew that the original ally Yuan Shao and Cao Ying were in trouble in the matter of Chang'an, but although the two families had their own actions, they still maintained considerable restraint on the surface, as soon as this news came out, it was equivalent to tearing off the last fig leaf between the two families, and became-for-tat. It was also enough to come to the city before the county guards who had been transferred most of their troops by Cao Ying because of the incident in Chang'an reacted. The matter of whether or not the two states will exchange troops is very important, and it is no longer something that Cao Ang can give Qin Xu an accurate answer.

"Master Qin! Oh, no, should it be General Qin or Qin Envoy? These words to fool the village men and women are just rumors deliberately made up by some people with bad intentions. As for the purpose, I heard that Qin Envoy Jun had just come from Xuzhou, so he must not be very clear, right? In this way, if you only listen to the words of my Yanzhou family, I am afraid that it will be said that it is biased, it is better to wait for Lu Qingzhou to make a decision, and then discuss this matter with my eldest son, what is the intention of the Qin envoy? Seeing that Cao Ang was about to be confused by his own news, when he set out Cao Ying's hole cards, suddenly a voice that made Qin Xu feel very familiar came from outside the door, and the secret slander against Qin Xu in what he said could also be heard by deaf people.

"Mr. Chung-tak? Mr. Ang Jiuhou has been waiting for a long time......" (To be continued.) )
