As Qin Xu expected, as soon as Lu Bu heard the news from Song Xian, his face suddenly turned pale, and his voice became a lot rougher. Almost pointed at Song Xian's nose and scolded: "What? What did you say? Kong Rong, a big living person, inexplicably disappeared in the thousands of elite guard battalions? Are you crazy or are you crazy? It's surrounded by thousands of pigs, and if you want to escape, there will always be a little movement, right? How did you become the commander of this battalion? Pigs are not as good! ……”

Qin Xu finally saw Lu Bu's real kung fu of scolding people under anger, and only then did he know how "gentle" Lu Bu was to himself before, just Lu Bu's hot surname, even a clay man can give you a bit of a fire surname. It is no wonder that the "three people who have been loyally following Lu Bu's side in history" will break out because of a trivial matter of winemaking, and directly turn against Lu Bu, making Lu Bu regret the defeat of Baimenlou.

"The Lord is angry!" There was no way, Qin Xu saw Song Xian's face turn from blue to white, from purple to black, so he almost wiped his neck in front of Lu Bu to extinguish Lu Bu's anger, Qin Xu had no choice but to harden his head and say loudly before Lu Bu became angrier and angrier, and before he was about to go berserk: "Xu thinks that although General Song Xian is not guilty of this matter, he is also meritorious!" ”

"What nonsense!?" Lu Bu snorted with a cold face, and looked at Qin Xu like a knife. Fortunately, this time Qin Xu was already mentally prepared, so he was barely not frightened by Lu Bu's intimidating gaze, and said in a calm voice with a calm face: "Lord, Xu Yan said that although General Song Xian's move was made, it was also meritorious!" ”

"Meritorious? You waited for several months to plan and mobilize countless manpower, troops, and financial resources in Qingxu and Xuzhou, so that this thief Kong Rong, who wanted to subvert Qingzhou, got carried away and exposed his ugliness. It's been less than two days now, and he just let him run, under the guard of thousands of guards, and there is more than one! But you just came to talk to someone about merit? Where's the work? Lu Bu asked Qin Xu almost with his eyebrows raised. Hearing this, Lu Bu already had a habitual trust in what Qin Xu said, although Qin Xu's words were too unbelievable, but Lu Bu's tone of voice was obviously an octave lower than his previous attitude towards Song Xian, which made Song Xian feel a little hopeful, although Song Xian was also taken aback by Qin Xu's words.

"Lord, Kong Rong is so hateful, there are just two points, one is the prestige and special status of his saint family in the Great Han Shilin, and the other is that most of the six counties and three places in Qingzhou are his protégés and former officials, if there is a problem, Qingzhou will be in danger!" Qin Xu talked eloquently, seeing that Lu Bu was listening, and Song Xian almost brackezed his ears for fear that Qin Xu would miss a word, and continued: "Before, when Kong Rong was hiding his identity in Qingzhou and making waves, even if Wenhe and Fengxiao had already seen through that everything was related to him Kong Wenju, but there was no direct evidence, so he would never dare to move lightly because of his identity. It wasn't until this guy entered the palace by himself, exposed his feet, and publicized the matter of the private (communication) Xuzhou rebel generals and the remnants of the Yellow Turban to the world, so that we turned the passive into the active and arrested him. In fact, the lord must also know that although this Kong Rong's evil deeds are well-known in the world, after all, his surname is Kong, and Qingzhou still needs to rely on his subordinates to serve in a short period of time, so he has resorted to a plan to lead the way to the west, wanting to throw this hot trouble to the ill-intentioned Cao Mengde, making it difficult for him to go, so as to solve the embarrassing situation that my Qingzhou will be faintly the enemy of the world's corporal clan. ”

"Not bad! Although Kong Rong intends to confuse Qingzhou, after all, he is the best in the world, and there are many followers of his crooked heresies, if he stays in Qingzhou, regardless of life or death, it will be a big trouble for our army after all! Lu Bu nodded, glared at Song Xian who was worried again, and said: "But now that Kong Rong is lost, what if he takes advantage of this matter to hide and continue to secretly plot against Qingzhou?" At present, there are only fifty students available in the Jixia School Palace, and there will be no way to force those redundant officials of the Beihai Department in terms of governance methods. If these people secretly obeyed Kong Rong's orders and connected together, then Qingzhou would repeat the previous chaos almost instantly. ”

"The Lord is serious!" Qin Xu saw that Lu Bu's anger calmed down a little, at least he was already more logical in speaking, so he gave Song Xian a reassuring look, and said with a smile: "The lord is also too high to think of that hole melting." Kong Rong had been plotting for so long with the person who secretly funded his success, and he assassinated Xu in Chen Liu, and he made some fraud cases in Beihai and Plains to confuse the public, and the pattern was quite large, but in fact? Those officials from the Beihai Department in the six counties and three places of Qingzhou actually did not participate in Kong Rong's words, and no matter if they had any follow-up moves, but at least what the lord saw the night before, Kong Rong relied on, at most forty or fifty people, and the so-called 'righteous army' outside the city was also full of rabble, and they didn't even have the ability to fight with the trapped camp. ”

"Overestimated? Hum! Kong Rong has always been ghostly, and now he has escaped like this, it seems that I have underestimated it. And it is indeed difficult for the officials of the Beihai prefectures and counties around me to believe that these are great hidden dangers. Besides, as you said, it seems that someone is supporting Kong Wenju's every move behind his back, and the purpose is also in Qingzhou, and now Kong Rong has escaped like this, but it is really as they wish. Lu Bu paced a few steps and said in a deep voice.

"What Xu Zhi said is overestimated, and what he is talking about is the impact of this Kong Rong's escape! In fact, if you think about it carefully, it is also beneficial to our army! Qin Xu pointed to Song Xian, who was kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to get up, and said with a smile: "As the lord said, the reason why Kong Rong is in such a hurry is also related to the fact that the forces behind him can't wait. After all, since Kong Rong entered Qingzhou, although he was named Qingzhou Zhizhong, he never took care of political affairs, as the great sacrificial wine of Jixia Xuegong, and he did not dare to do anything in order to make it easier for the lord not to be suspicious of him, the advantage of this is that it does play the purpose of protecting himself, but in fact, it is also gradually weakened with his subordinates in Beihai. After all, the world can see the form of Qingzhou clearly now, and no one will joke about their future. Besides, these people are not like those protégés of the Yuan family where Yuan Shao is located, even if Kong Rong is from a family of saints, he is not a saint himself, and he is just a Beihai Taishou who breaks the sky. Those people sang a few words of praise when Kong Rong was smooth, and carried a sedan chair for Kong when he was in power, if he really encountered something, just like the night before, it can be seen that Kong Rong's so-called threat to Qingzhou is actually just a paper tiger. ”

"Do you mean that in fact, whether Kong Rong stays or can't stay, in fact, it doesn't matter?" Lu Bu was a little confused by Qin Xu, if you want to say that Kong Rong is such a dispensable thing, why didn't he design such a big game to earn Kong Rong in the first place?

"Lord, the danger of Kong Rong is that no matter whether he has any substantial harm to Qingzhou, as long as he Kong Rong is there, it is a big bow that will always be full of strings, and it is easy to give people with ulterior motives an excuse to attack Qingzhou!" Qin Xu said: "And the original plan to dedicate Kong Rong and others to Your Majesty is actually an expedient measure, Your Majesty, or Cao **, what can you do with Kong Rong?" There is no need to think about killing him, and Cao ** is not a stupid person, he naturally will not take the trouble of killing the Great Confucian on his head, not to mention from the point of view of the so-called volunteers, there is also some discord between Cao ** and Kong Rong. Therefore, even if Kong Rong is sent to Xuchang, to be honest, maybe it is better than in Qingzhou. Therefore, Kong Rong's big trouble is not to stay in Qingzhou, and it is actually not appropriate to send it to Xuchang. It's better to let him run on his own. ”

"Is it possible to make this old puppet so cheap for nothing? It took so much effort to catch him easily, although what you kid said also has some truth, but after all, he still can't swallow this breath! Qin Xu's words analyzed Kong Rong's "troublesome surname" of a guy who didn't look big, but was actually very pestering, and Lu Bu also thought so. If it is really as Qin Xu said, Kong Rongzhi is actually like a dough stuck in his throat in Qingzhou, and outsiders see that he has eaten it in his mouth, but he knows his own suffering, and the taste that can't be swallowed and spit out is actually the most unbearable.

"Don't talk about the lord! No one can swallow this breath. Not to mention this cold day, the soldiers of the Manchu army accompanied him, the old man, to toss in poverty, just because Xu was assassinated before, and almost left his life in Chenliu, it can be seen that although this old man is a saint, his conduct is indeed not much better. In addition, the fraud cases in the two places that were carried out before were enough to make the people of the two places who almost ran out of food again in the midst of the great drought hate them to the core. Seeing that Lu Bu finally recognized his statement, Qin Xu glanced at Song Xian, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said to Lu Bu Zhengse: "Therefore, since this Kong Rong is now helping me solve such a difficult trouble, and his intentions are very sincere, shouldn't I also help him?" ”

"Huh? What do you mean by that? Lu Bu just heard that Qin Xu really didn't have a good impression of Kong Rong, although his words made Lu Bu a lot less angry at Kong Rong, but after all, there was still a small pimple in his heart, seeing Qin Xu say this, he immediately asked with interest.

"The lord can let out the wind, on the one hand, the ins and outs of this matter, play the son of heaven, and at the same time make it clear and spread it all over the world, just say that Kong Rong was entrusted by the lord to the important task of governing Qingzhou, and he didn't think about protecting the territory and the people and educating the people to repay the favor of the lord and the public, but colluded with the rebels in Xuzhou, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans and other rebels in the country, and wanted to cause trouble in Qingzhou first, and then rely on his identity as a saint, it is difficult to say whether there will be unspeakable ambitions." Qin Xu's eyes flashed with a bit of fierceness, and he said.

"Does that work? Will anyone believe it? Lu Bu was very worried about the effectiveness of Qin Xu's seemingly innocuous solution, and asked.

"Regardless of whether he is effective or not, what I have to do is just to start this topic, and the next step is to take the remnants of the Yellow Turban rebels, together with the rebellious thief Zhang Min and this so-called 'volunteer soldier' to capture the Son of Heaven as a New Year's gift, it is estimated that Cao ** will help us to improve the next step." Qin Xu smiled a little cunningly. The ** war of later generations, which is not the tightness that seems exaggerated and childish at the beginning, and then after the weight of the people step by step, when the atmosphere is set to a certain extent, things have been led to a place where they cannot extricate themselves. At that time, the truth and falsehood will still be so important?

"But isn't Cao ** very likely to have something to do with that Kong Rong? Will it vigorously cover up for Kong Rong? Lu Bu asked with some concern.

"Cao ** is a smart person, so naturally he won't do stupid things! Moreover, who can guarantee that Kong Rong only sheltered the Cao ** family ......" (to be continued.) )
