Chapter 217: Lying and talking about old things, Qin Xu confused Cao Ang
"Brother Zixiu thinks highly of Qin, you are the eldest son of Yanzhou Mu, but Xu is already white now, so he is embarrassed to meet you because Yan'er belongs to the same family as you, otherwise, I am afraid that I will already be too ashamed to see people!" Fortunately, Qin Xu has long known that Xu Huang's prestige in history is to shine from Cao **, the original solicitation is to value Xu Huang's character At the same time, he just wants to stumble on Cao **, Cheng is also happy, and if he doesn't succeed, he has to be happy, in addition to some regrets, he also has some expectations for Xu Huang to soar into the sky since then. Seeing Cao Ang's somewhat unnatural words after he greeted Xu Huang, Qin Xu smiled slightly, made a self-deprecating tone, and said.
"Brother Zhongming has done a good thing, and he has obtained so many military resources and grain and grass for Qingzhou, how can he ......" Cao Ang is not like Qin Xu after all, he has the experience of being a human being in two lives, and under Qin Xu's intentional or unintentional guidance, he moved closer to the original intention of coming to Qingzhou this time, and asked with some curiosity.
"Zixiu may have heard that I came here after hundreds of thousands of stones, grains, grass, and countless military coins in Qingzhou, right?" Qin Xu let Cao Ang and Xu Huang into the living room of the middle hall, and asked directly, before he could still hide his emotions, Cao Ang, who was a little embarrassed by what Qin Xu said directly, opened his mouth, and pretended to be helpless and said: "Zixiu, although you and I belong to two parties, at least they are like-minded, and your intention to come here should be the same as that of the envoys sent by Yuan Shao and Tao Qian, so you can't hide it from me!" ”
"This, Zhong Ming, Ang ......" Cao Ang, who was a little blushing by Qin Xu's words, didn't expect Qin Xu to point out the fundamental intention of the envoy sent by Yanzhou so unceremoniously, and it was a little difficult to speak for a while, as if he had thought about it for a long time, before taking a deep breath and saying: "Ang doesn't hide from Zhong Ming, Ang came here on the order of his father this time, although he did have the idea of asking Qingzhou to find a way to relieve the disaster, but it was also because he couldn't bear to be in this year of drought in the Central Plains, and the people were affected by the disaster. At least Ang's original intention was not the same as the messenger sent by Yuan Shao. ”
"Zixiu misunderstood what Xu Zhi meant." Seeing that although Cao Ang had changed a little in his actions, his original surname was difficult to change, and after only a few words of excitement, he restored his true state, which made Qin Xu feel a little guilty. I don't know that Cao ** knows that his eldest son is benevolent and not suitable for doing this kind of extortion, but he still sent Cao Ang here, doesn't this make people have psychological obstacles when they talk and fool? A trace of apology flashed in Qin Xu's eyes, and he said with a smile: "Xu didn't mean anything else, he just sighed that whether it was Yuan Jizhou or General Cao, he might have to do useless work this time!" ”
What did Zhong Ming mean? Could it be that the news that came back was sent back in detail? Hmm...... "Cao Ang is an honest child, he has always had a good sense of Qin Xu, and he also has the same friendship with Cai Yan, seeing Qin Xu's heart-to-heart appearance, he accidentally almost took out the old bottom, but his face was full of embarrassment but he already asked with questions.
"This is the normal situation in this world, Zixiu doesn't need to be embarrassed!" Qin Xu didn't seem to hear Cao Ang's words, and said with a smile: "I don't know if Zixiu also heard the reason why Qin was dismissed from office this time when he heard the news that my Qingzhou had to take the traitor Kan Xuan's hiding?" ”
"This is also where Ang Bai is puzzled, and he is about to ask, but he is afraid that Zhong will be surprised!" Cao Ang said with some embarrassment: "I have known that Zhongming is quite important in General Lu, and he is favored by Miss Lu, he should have risen to the top, and his official road is prosperous, how can he ......"
"Alas...... Zixiu doesn't know anything! Qin Xu pretended to be depressed, sighed and said: "Everyone in the world now believes in rumors, and under the clouds, the three of them become tigers, and everyone has no way to defend it." Although Xu was trusted by the lord before, no one was willing to listen to Xu's truthful words, and he was really depressed. Although Zixiu belongs to another party, Xu treats you as a friend, and you and I have the right to chat between friends. Of course, what Xu Zhi said, he didn't ask Brother Zixiu to believe it, as soon as he said it, Zixiu you will listen to it, what is it, and ask Brother Zixiu to realize himself. ”
"Zhong Ming, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it, Ang is actually curious." Seeing Qin Xu's heart-to-heart appearance, Cao Ang had already won a lot of Cao Jun's civil and military affairs before coming to Linzi in the future, and even Cao **, all of them were reminded by Mingli that Cao Ang should not pay attention to anything else, and he must beware of Qin Xu's words when he opened his mouth, and frowned and asked.
"Does Zixiu know that the two 'fraud cases' in the plains and Beihai that happened before in Qingzhou were not very faceless?" Qin Xu put on a posture and talked eloquently, without waiting for Cao Ang to answer, and continued: "Actually, everything started from the events of these two places. When Qin came to the aid of Xuzhou with the lord, in fact, he only heard that Xiapi was in danger of breaking the city, and we were worried that Xiapi would be captured by thieves, and it would not be tolerated by the majesty of the Han Dynasty. Even after the coalition of the Kan Xuan thieves and the Xuzhou Yellow Turban was defeated by Wen Hou, the rebels and others were also ordered by Tao Xuzhou to be imprisoned, and said that in order to vent the hatred of the thieves besieging the city, they were all executed, and these things are believed to be known to everyone at this time. ”
"Yes, Ang also heard the news before, and when he talked about this with his father, he also sighed that in addition to General Lu's righteousness, he also had a lot of complaints about Tao Gongzu's methods." Hearing that Qin Xu even said clearly the amount of remuneration between Lu Bu and Tao Qian, Cao Ang first believed what Qin Xu said, and then Qin Xu's words.
"Yes, if it weren't for the fact that Ling Grandfather was injured by the old Xuzhou general Zhang Min, and provoked General Ling Zun Cao to fold his army and go to Xuzhou, and said that he would slaughter the people of Xuzhou, maybe when the siege of Xiapi was lifted, I would have returned to Qingzhou, after all, there was a warning of the great drought in Qingzhou, and General Lu was worried about how the people of Qingzhou would start a war with their friendly neighbors?" The highest way to deceive people is to match the true and the false, like an antelope hanging its horns without a trace. Qin Xu made a foreshadowing of the previous rescue of Xuzhou by Lu Bujun, so that Cao Ang had a preconceived concept, that is, Lu Bu was just helping for the sake of food that could save the lives of the victims in Qingzhou. Seeing that Cao Ang nodded again and again after hearing this, Qin Xu smiled secretly in his heart, but his face still had a serious expression, and said: "And because Ling Zu was seriously injured, and he was quite concerned about Zixiu who was in Linzi at the time, Qin Xu entered Cao Ying alone, resolved the misunderstanding, and brought the old lady back to Qingzhou to recuperate and meet with your son, and then not only returned your ancestors and grandchildren back to Yanzhou, but also told General Cao the news of the great drought kindly, in order not to hurt the harmony of Qingyan Erzhou." ”
"What Zhong Ming said is very true, if it weren't for the news from Zhong Ming, Yanzhou would be a little prepared, I believe that under this natural disaster, I don't know how many Yanzhou people will suffer innocently, but Ang still wants to thank Zhong Ming for his righteous actions." Although he didn't know that Qin Xu was obviously going to talk about the gains of Kan Xuan's looting in Qingzhou, but he was all about these things, but when he heard Qin Xu talk about the news of the drought and made Yanzhou prepare in advance, Cao Ang still got up and said solemnly to Qin Xu.
"Whether it is Qingzhou, Yanzhou or other states and counties, they are all people of the Han Dynasty, but Zixiu is very polite." Seeing that Cao Ang had already begun to follow his own thinking, Qin Xu smiled secretly and continued: "But at this moment, the newly restored plains and Beihai in Qingzhou suddenly exposed a fraud case, and more than 100,000 stones of grain disappeared, causing the hearts of the people in the two places to shake, and the situation was critical. But there is not much grain in Linzi, and there are still not enough hundreds of thousands of people in the city, so how can it be possible to provide relief again? But the drought has come, if you don't save it, there will be changes, and Qingzhou, which is easy to stabilize, will fall into chaos again. As a last resort, Xu could only ask Wen Hou to transport back the 100,000 stone grain and grass paid by Tao Qian to be stored in Jinan for backup, but unexpectedly, when he was in Jinan, he caught a few yellow scarves. Zixiu should know that Wen Hou's repeated actions in Qingzhou have long made the Qingxu Yellow Turban frightened, and even when the Xuzhou soldiers surrounded Pi, together with Langya County, which is the closest border to Qingzhou, was regarded as a forbidden land, how could there be a remnant of the Yellow Turban in such an important town as Jinan? Xu was interrogated overnight, but he was shocked and got a shocking news. ”
"Could it be the hiding place of the looted things that Kan Xuan plundered?" The honest boy Cao Ang has been attracted by Qin Xu's "story" this time, in fact, he should really listen to the words of his father's wife Cao, but unfortunately it is ** now.
"Zixiu is right!" Qin Xu nodded heavily, and said: "When Wen Hou was able to defeat the coalition of tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans and Kan Xuan's rebels with 15,000 newly recruited soldiers with a single drum, it was because the rebel thief leader Kan Xuan and the Yellow Turban thief leader Yu Fang had an internal strife, and what they were fighting for was what Kan Xuan, who was rumored to have plundered!" It's just that these Yellow Turban remnants only know the approximate location of that batch of military food, and they don't know the specific storage location, Qin was also very sad, but after inquiry, he ...... the truth of this."
"Brother Zhong Ming, is it saying that the rumors that Kan Xuan is hiding are false?" Cao Ang asked with a surprised face.
"After Qin's heavy punishment, I learned after several interrogations that Kan Xuan's looting was real!" Qin Xu said in a heavy tone: "It's just that the number has been infinitely exaggerated. Not to mention that among the two counties of Pengcheng and Donghai in Xuzhou, will there really be hundreds of thousands of grain and grass military funds, that is, Kan Xuan only relies on more than 2,000 people, and the incident is only half a month, how can he transport so many things to the junction of Qingyan and Xu Sanzhou, hundreds of miles away, and specially find a cave to hide? Could it be that Kan Xuan is really the true son of heaven, and every move of his subordinates is protected by the gods? ”
"Then what is the ...... of the goods obtained in Qingzhou this time" Cao Ang finally understood what Qin Xu wanted to express from Qin Xu's often self-justifying statement, and he had already believed it for seven or eight points, but he still asked with some doubts: "It is said that there are as many as thousands of grain trucks and baggage trucks transported from Jinan to Linzi, is it possible?" ”
"It seems that Lao Cao really wants to get the heart of Qingzhou immortal, and even this can be investigated!" Qin Xu said secretly, but after hearing General Cao Ang's suspicious question, he sighed heavily and said: "It's also strange that Qin was frivolous at that time, and he wanted to see the combat power of the flying cavalry battalion that General Cheng Lian, the garrison general of the Jinan garrison, relied on to become famous, so he commissioned General Cheng to find a valley where there were no people to perform the military for a play." Unexpectedly, he actually met the potters of Xuzhou who were confronting a large number of yellow turbans. ”
"Potter? Could it be that at that time, you issued a hunt and kill order to Zhong Ming, and the one who ordered you to rob your ancestors? Cao Ang suddenly asked with an angry face.
"Exactly, but with the old lady, Tao Xuzhou has already made it clear that it was a misunderstanding." Qin Xu pretended to persuade, but in fact, he quietly fanned the wind and lit the fire, and without waiting for Cao Ang to answer, he continued: "When I saw that situation, although Qin also wanted to know what they were doing, but firstly, there were very few people in that place, General Cheng was just to play a military show to relieve Qin's boredom, and he brought very few troops, and secondly, although Qin also wanted to know what they were doing, Qingzhou Xuzhou was a friendly neighbor after all, and Wen Hou had just saved the siege of Xiapi before. Therefore, in line with the intention that more things are better than less things, seeing that they had no intention of embarrassing Qin, they also saw them leave. But who knows...... Alas! ”
"How?" Cao Ang vaguely knew what Qin Xu was going to say, but he still asked with an eager look.
"Alas!" As if he was complaining to an old friend, Qin Xu added fire to Cao Ang, who had already made up for it in his own mind, and said: "Who knew that Qin Mou didn't take what he saw in the valley seriously, and escorted the 100,000 stone grain and grass paid by Tao Qian to return to Linzi, and suddenly his brain was hot, and he had a temporary idea, since it was crazy that Kan Xuan had hidden treasures, why not buy more empty cars, report more military rations, and take Anqingzhou as the two places to cheat and have the intention of floating?" So......"
"So Zhong Ming, you originally wanted to appease the people of Qingzhou, but unexpectedly, it was spread by someone with a heart, and the rumors became more and more outrageous, and finally this matter was rumored?" Seeing Qin Xu's depressed look, Cao Ang thought that Qin had done something good for his good intentions, so he asked tentatively with concern on his face.
"Alas! Time also! Fate! Although the lord is Xu's father-in-law, but this time Xu caused too much trouble, and he had to cut Qin's official position, in order to calm the army's heart, ala......s, "Qin Xu peeked at Cao Ang's complicated face with a little sympathy and "disappointment", and knew that he had succeeded, and he almost didn't laugh out loud at the moment.
