"That's it, then Chen Zhipifu should have been ordered by the pottery thief, and only after getting close did he convey the pottery thief's request to Jue alone, saying that as long as the prime minister agrees to him one of the conditions of the pottery thief, then whether he wants the pottery thief to withdraw from the army, or the pottery thief and the prime minister to form an alliance against Yuan, you can sit down and discuss. But what are the specific conditions, the pottery thief did not explain to Chen Zhipifu, but just asked Chen Zhi to say that what he wanted most from the pottery thief, you know, Xun Yu, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu also know, but the prime minister is reluctant to give, so he has been pretending to be deaf and dumb. ”

After listening to Chen Zhiyuan's words brought by Mao Jue, Boss Cao smiled bitterly, and Xun Yu's uncle and nephew, Guo Tuberculosis and Cheng Heixin, who were named by Deputy Director Tao, also looked helpless, or smiled bitterly, or shook their heads, but no one spoke. After waiting for a long time without seeing Boss Cao's voice full of curiosity, Mao Jue couldn't help but be even more puzzled, and couldn't help but ask carefully: "Prime Minister, what conditions does the pottery thief want?" Would the Son of Heaven please move to Xuzhou? ”

"Of course not." Guo Jia coughed and answered for Boss Cao, and then asked, "Didn't Mr. Xiaoxian think about it?" The pottery thief asked the Son of Heaven to move to Xuzhou at this time, what is the effect on him? In addition to diverting Yuan Shao's anger for our army, what substantial benefits can it bring him? ”

"Of course, the pottery thief doesn't want the Son of Heaven." Xun Yu also said with a gloomy face: "Yuan Shao and our army turned against each other, and the move of the Son of Heaven to Xuchang is one of the important reasons. The pottery thief forced the Son of Heaven to move to Xuzhou at this time, but it had no effect except to provoke the fire. ”

"What kind of conditions does the pottery thief want?" Mao Jue was completely confused.

"The pottery thief wants me to go to war with Yuan Shao." Boss Cao finally spoke, and said expressionlessly: "As long as I fight with Yuan Shao and completely form a momentum of fire and water, the pottery thief will immediately withdraw from my southern front, and he will also help me at a critical moment, which I have indeed known for a long time." ”

"We're already at war with Yuan Shao?" Mao Jue was even more surprised.

"It's just a declaration of war, and it hasn't really started yet, let alone completely torn its face." Boss Cao's black face was even more ugly, and he said gloomily: "Although I ordered Cao Rentun to cross the army, ordered the forbidden soldiers to guard Yanjin, ordered Liu Yan to guard Dongjun, and Yuan Shao also ordered Yan Liangtun to Liyang, and confronted our army across the river, but there was no battle, and there was still hope for reconciliation, so the pottery thief did not dare to withdraw from the southern front casually, let alone directly form an alliance with our army to resist Yuan, what I was afraid of was that Yuan Shao was angry with him and turned the spearhead to attack his Xuzhou, and I was even more afraid that our army would form an alliance with Yuan Shao and join forces to invade him, only our army and Yuan Shao would start a full-scale war, Only then can the pottery thief be assured to do what he wants to do boldly. ”

Mao Jue suddenly realized, and began to scold the pottery thief in his stomach, but Cao Boss hummed again: "This thief's abacus is better than anyone else, after I and Yuan Shao started a full-scale war, he was invincible, Yuan Shao wanted to fight him and couldn't concentrate all his strength, I had to ask him to only whisper to him, he hid in the southern front to attack and retreat, he could defend and sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and he would fight whoever he wanted. ”

"In that case, why don't you try to make peace with Yuan Shao again?" Mao Jue suggested: "The lord and Yuan Shao are the best of the horns, once like brothers, and Yuan Shao to form an alliance to fight for thieves for a long time than the pottery thief, in recent years and Yuan Shao is also because of the pottery thief in the instigation, why not send a man who can speak to carry a heavy gift to the north, good words to seek peace, may not be able to persuade Yuan Shao to retreat, as long as Yuan Shao is temporarily stabilized, why should our army be afraid of the pottery thief?" ”

"I have considered asking Yuan Shao for peace more than once, but no." Cao Lao shook his head resolutely and explained: "Our army and Yuan Shao gradually became evil, of course, there are pottery thieves fanning the flames and fueling the flames, but the key to the contradiction is the conflict of interests between our army and Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao coveted the land and city of the Central Plains after destroying Gongsun Zhan, sooner or later he will go south and annex the Central Plains, and even annex this world, our army is not only the first to bear the brunt, but also close to Yecheng, if Yuan Shao does not destroy our army, not only can not go south, and the rear hinterland is also threatened by our army at all times, this is an irreconcilable contradiction, so it is difficult to succeed in seeking peace, Even if you succeed, it won't last long. ”

Mao Jue closed his mouth helplessly, and Xun Yu hesitantly said: "Prime Minister, since the pottery thief has already put forward the conditions, why don't our army occasionally make some concessions to the pottery thief and agree to the conditions offered by the pottery thief?" After all, if our army is destroyed by Yuan Shao, it will also be harmful to the pottery thief, with the pottery thief's annihilation, at least it will not suddenly stab us in the back, and our army can also fight against Yuan Shao alone with peace of mind, and there is no need to worry about the rear fire at any time as it is now. ”

"Mr. Wen Ruo has a point." Guo Jia did the favor of Deputy Director Tao again this time, and echoed: "The Tao thief went north to attack Yanzhou this time, during which the soldiers were strictly restrained and forbidden to kill indiscriminately, obviously leaving a back road, and the Tao thief sent Zang Ba to settle in Mount Tai, and Qingzhou is also a tiger's eye, and the interests of our army are the same, although our army has suffered a loss in forming an alliance with it, but it is better to rest assured, at least there is no need to worry about the Tao thief defecting to the battle, and suddenly falling to Yuan Shao's side." ”

Boss Cao was a little tempted, his eyes were rolling nervously, but he didn't want Cheng Yu to have some different opinions, and stood up and objected: "No, although Yuan Shao is big, he has a lot of soldiers and is not organized, and there are many internal contradictions, even if there are millions, it is not a matter of worry." Although the pottery thief is small, it is better than the soldiers, the food is more, the potential is huge, there are not many internal contradictions, the military strength is neat, the pottery thief himself is even more scheming, cunning and cunning, and asking Yuan Shao for peace is just Han Xin's temporary humiliation of the crotch, and the alliance with the pottery thief is to seek the skin of the tiger, and the snake into his arms, sooner or later he will suffer from it, and he hopes to be cautious. ”

"So, does Mr. Zhongde agree to sue for peace with Yuan Shao?" Boss Cao asked with a deep groan.

"Not bad." Cheng Yu nodded calmly, and said: "Yuan Shao is very timid, scheming and indecisive, he is definitely not a rival, bowing his head to him and begging for peace, but he is temporarily humiliated by his crotch, the prime minister has endured it for so many years, what is it to endure it for a few more years?" ”

You also agreed to bow to Yuan Shao for the time being. Xun You stood up against his uncle, and analyzed from a psychological point of view: "For Yuan Shao, the more fierce the war between our army and the pottery thief, the more beneficial it is to him, Yuan Shao is no matter how short-sighted, no matter how much he loves his son-in-law, he will definitely be willing to see our army and the pottery thief go to war in an all-out way, so the prime minister sent an envoy to sue for peace, as long as it is explained that the prime minister is ready to personally lead the army into Xuzhou to settle accounts with the pottery thief, there is no need to worry that Yuan Shao will not agree to our army's peace." If our army takes the opportunity to annihilate or severely damage the main force of the pottery thieves, so that it is powerless to threaten the southern front of our army, why should we be afraid of him Yuan Shaozhi? ”

In the end, he just bowed his head to Yuan Sangong, who had been bowing his head for many years, and after hearing the words of Xun You and Cheng Yu, Boss Cao was inevitably more moved, but Boss Cao was more worried about another thing, and said hesitantly: "But if you ask Yuan Shao for peace, Yuan Shao will inevitably ask our army to hand over the Son of Heaven, how can this be good?" ”

"It doesn't matter." Xun You said quickly: "When the Son of Heaven set the capital of Xuchang a few days ago, Yuan Shao once asked the Son of Heaven to set the capital of Juancheng, although this seal was rejected by the prime minister in the name of the Son of Heaven, now the prime minister may wish to move the capital of the Son of Heaven to Juancheng at the junction of Hebei and Yan as a condition, in exchange for reconciliation with Yuan Shao. ”

"If Yuan Shao has to be the Son of Heaven, it doesn't matter." Cheng Yu said gloomily: "The Son of Heaven secretly issued a blood edict ordering the princes to crusade against the prime minister, which is simply revenge, and he does not know the blessing in the blessing!" That being the case, if Yuan Shao insists on moving the capital to Yecheng, the prime minister might as well hand over the Son of Heaven to Yuan Shao, and dare to take the head as a guarantee, the Son of Heaven will be in the hands of Yuan Shao, and he will miss the life of Xuchang in less than three months, and he will also find out who is the real loyal minister of the Han Dynasty and who is the real chaotic minister and thief! ”

Boss Cao stopped talking, and after playing with the arrow on the case for a long time, Boss Cao hesitated and said: "The matter is big, let me think about it carefully, and then discuss it tomorrow, you can retire first, let me think about it carefully." ”

"No." Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others agreed, bowed down and retired together, but Boss Cao's confidential secretary Sima Lang still stayed in the room, waiting for Boss Cao's order at any time, and at the same time, Sima Lang was also thinking in his heart, "It's not good, it looks like Cao Thief is tempted to make peace with Yuan Shao, if Cao Thief really makes up his mind and is ready to exchange the Son of Heaven for friendship with Yuan Shao, then Tao Envoy Jun, who has already invaded Yanzhou, will be in big trouble?" No, we must discuss countermeasures with the second brother as soon as possible and send this news to Tao Envoy Jun as soon as possible. ”

……………… Cheng Heixin and Xun You's suggestion was actually very successful, because at the same time in Yecheng City, Da Yuan Sancheng tore apart his son-in-law's letter asking him to send troops as soon as possible with a smile on his face, and sneered left and right: "I wrote five letters in just a month after sending troops, asking me to send troops to attack Yanzhou to respond to him, as if I was afraid that I would let him fight alone, my son-in-law really refused to suffer at all." ”

"What the lord said is very true." Xun Chen said with a smile: "Our army really can't let Tao Ying fight alone forever, and the loss of morality makes the world laugh, but now we must not send troops immediately, we must wait for the main force of Cao Thief to be forced south, the northern line of Yanzhou is empty, and then our army will send troops south, which is the most in line with the interests of our army." ”

"My lord, I think I should reply to Tao Ying with a letter." In terms of the fundamental interests of Jizhou, the loyal trial of Yuan Sangong is still resolutely on the opposite side of Deputy Director Tao, so the trial and match also insidiously suggested to Yuan Sangong: "In the letter, the lord can tell Tao Ying that the scale of the lord's army this time is not trivial, and the number of troops is at least more than 250,000, so the time required to prepare for the army is longer, so Tao Ying can wait with peace of mind. It also indirectly encouraged Tao Ying to step up his offensive and effectively contain the Cao thief's forces. ”

"It's a good idea, Kong Zhang, make a reply for me, and the content will be written according to Mr. Zhengnan's suggestion."

Da Yuan Sangong laughed and instructed the secretary Chen Lin, Chen Lin, who had cured Cao Lao's head wind with a brush not long ago, sang a promise, and hurriedly picked up the pen and wrote a book, and Feng Ji on the other side was still a little conscientious, and suggested that "the lord, Tao Ying came to ask the lord to help the war horse, but the lord did not pay attention to it, and this time the lord wants to make Tao Ying continue to knock on the southern line of Cao thief, you might as well send a batch of war horses with the letter, so as to encourage the morale of Xuzhou and the army, and more and more effectively contain the Cao thief." ”

"Does Mr. Yuantu think that Tao Ying's number of gentlemen is too small? Do you want to help him expand the Gentleman's Army? Guo Tu said in a strange manner: "A mere 1,500 gentlemen's army has already swept through the Central Plains invincible, if the number of gentlemen's troops is more, won't it in turn threaten my Jizhou?" ”

"It turns out that Mr. Gongze wants the horses to run, but also hopes that the horses will not eat grass?" Feng Ji retorted unceremoniously: "Tao Ying sent troops immediately after receiving the lord's order, or personally led the main force north to attack Yanzhou, taking the lead in benevolence, righteousness, loyalty and filial piety, if the lord even refused Tao Ying such a small request, then how could the lord lead the group and order the princes of the world to send troops to attack Cao together?" ”

Guo Tu was furious, and was about to ridicule each other, but Yuan Sangong waved his hand to stop: "Don't argue, Mr. Yuantu is reasonable, Ying'er is indeed very filial this time, and he should be given a little reward to encourage him to continue to attack the southern line of Cao Thief - Kong Zhang, add a paragraph to the letter, and tell Tao Ying that when he breaks through the two important towns of Changyi and Dingtao on the southern line of Yanzhou, I will reward him with a thousand good horses." ”

Chen Lin agreed again and continued to write hard, but Guo Tu was a little unconvinced, and as soon as his triangular eyes turned around, he had the idea of retaliating against Deputy Director Tao, and hurriedly bowed his hand to Da Yuan Sangong and said: "Lord, in fact, the period of our army's dispatch can be slowed down a little more, and we can even withdraw the soldiers and horses of Liyang, and temporarily lift the threat to the northern line of Cao Thief, so that the northern line of Cao Thief is worry-free, and he will inevitably go south to fight a decisive battle with Tao Ying, and when Tao Cao's second army is defeated, our army will attack Yanzhou again, wouldn't it be more effective with half the effort?" ”

Although Da Yuan Sangong is not far from Alzheimer's disease during the Battle of Guandu, Guo Tu's insidious idea is still in the heart of Da Yuan Sangong, and under the temptation, Da Yuan Sangong smiled a little shyly: "Although Mr. Gongze's plan is wonderful, Tao Ying is my son-in-law, so going up the house to the ...... ladder is morally a little untenable." ”

"My lord, Mr. Gongze's plan is brilliant and should be adopted." The hardcore loyal minister of the Great Yuan Sangong jumped out unexpectedly, and helped Guo Tu to agitate: "Tao Ying and Cao Thief are both quite strong, not overnight, and they are both neighbors of our army, and at the same time threaten the southern line of our army, now go to the house to the ladder to let Cao Thief attack Tao Ying, not only can receive the effect of watching the fire from the other side, but also make our army's southern line never worry-free, and in the future, it will be easier to defeat Cao Thief and annex Xuzhou, and count it in one fell swoop, isn't it wonderful?" ”

"Count in one fell swoop?"

The already somewhat tempted Da Yuan Sangong was inevitably shaken, but fortunately, Deputy Director Tao still had a more reliable friend at the scene, and both the trial and Feng Ji stood up in time to dissuade him, and persuaded together: "Lord, you must not act like this, Tao should be ordered by the lord to send troops to attack Cao, but the lord went up the house to the ladder to deliberately indulge the Cao thief, which will inevitably chill everyone in the world, not only greatly damaging the lord's reputation, I am afraid that no prince will listen to the lord's orders in the future." ”

Da Yuan Sangong is still a person who wants to save face, and after listening to the persuasion of the judge and Feng Ji, he quickly nodded and said: "The two gentlemen are reasonable, and the withdrawal of troops from Liyang at this time is indeed morally untenable. Liyang's army cannot be withdrawn, and the date of the main force going south is also uncertain for the time being, and other things will be talked about slowly. ”

Both the trial and Feng Ji breathed a sigh of relief, but Guo Tu still refused to give up, and said: "If there is any excuse to withdraw troops from Liyang, it would be good if it was a temporary reconciliation with Cao Thief, Tao Ying took advantage of the fire to rob and attack Yanzhou, Cao Thief must have hated Tao Ying deeply, our army and Cao Thief stopped fighting with Cao Thief at this time, and Cao Thief must have risked his life to attack Xuzhou to avenge his blood hatred." ”

"It's hard to find an excuse." Da Yuan Sangong sighed and said: "I must convince everyone in the world, let everyone in the world think that I go up to the house to go to the ladder is fair, where to find such an excuse?" ”

"There's a door! The lord actually wants to withdraw from Liyang! Guo Tu and Xin Ping and other Yuan Tan Gongzi's sworn friends all had their eyes lit up, and they immediately began to plan in their hearts, thinking about how to find such an excuse for Yuan Sangong, and borrow the poisonous hand of Boss Cao to give Yuan Tan Gongzi a big breath.................................... As Boss Cao's most trusted confidential secretary, Sima Lang of course had to wait until Boss Cao fell asleep before going home to rest, but fortunately, Boss Cao slept relatively early today, and went to bed before the second watch, Sima Lang repeatedly instructed the guards to beware of Boss Cao's murder in his dream, and also returned to his home not far from the Prime Minister's Mansion, according to the previous method, under the pretext of supervising and inspecting his younger brother Ah Yi's homework, he took the opportunity to tell his younger brother that Boss Cao was going to ask for peace with Yuan Sangong, and discussed countermeasures with his younger brother.

Not to mention, after lurking by Boss Cao's side for more than two years, although Ah Yi has matured a lot in terms of mind and words and deeds, but after listening to Sima Lang's whispered introduction, Ah Yi's face still changed, and he was shocked: "Oh no, if Cao Thief really sent an envoy to sue for peace, then the certainty of success must be great, Yuan Shao has always been selfish, such a good opportunity to watch the fire from the other side, Yuan Shao will definitely not miss it." ”

"That's what my brother thinks the same way." Sima Lang nodded, lowered his voice and said: "And according to Brother Wei's observation, Cao Thief must have made up his mind to bow his head to Yuan Shao and sue for peace, otherwise, Cao Thief would not have fallen asleep so early, and it is estimated that tomorrow morning, Cao Thief will have to decide on the choice of the messenger." ”

"Tao Yuanjun is really in danger this time, and I don't know if he is prepared for such a situation." Ah Yi said worriedly.

"Without further ado, Brother Xian, you should contact Tao Envoy Jun's details as soon as possible and send this news to Changyi." Sima Lang commanded in a low voice: "Please ask Tao Envoy Jun to prepare and arrange a countermeasure, so as not to be caught off guard and suffer a big loss." ”

"Of course, the news will be delivered, but I'm afraid it's too late to plan a response." Ah Yi shook his head and said hesitantly: "Now that Yanzhou is under martial law, the road from Xuchang to Changyi is closely monitored, and the news is difficult to ......transmit. ”

Hesitating to say this, Ah Yi, who had been trained by Yang Changshi himself, suddenly moved in his heart, and hurriedly whispered to Sima Lang: "Brother, you just said that Cao Thief will not decide the candidate for the envoy until tomorrow morning, could it be that Cao Thief has not yet determined the candidate to go to Jizhou to seek peace?" ”

"Nope." Sima Lang shook his head and introduced in a low voice: "After listening to Cheng Yu and Xun You's poisonous plan, Cao Thief didn't immediately make up his mind, so he didn't discuss the candidate for the envoy. ”

"There's a way." Ah Yi was overjoyed, and hurriedly whispered: "Tomorrow morning, if Cao Thief consults with everyone about the selection of the envoy, brother, you can recommend ......, no, recommend Kong Rong, the descendant of Kong Qiu, as the envoy, and Yang Xiu, the son of Taiwei Yang Biao." If it succeeds, Cao Thief will inevitably suffer from it! And then it will invite a monstrous disaster! ”

"Victimized by it? And then invite a monstrous disaster? What do you mean? "Sima Lang was confused by Xiao Jian's good brother.

"Because Kong Rong and Yang Xiu have a good friend, they will definitely be able to help us and Tao Yuanjun a lot." Ah Yi said with a smile: "The younger brother studied under the famous scholars in Xuchang, and knew that Kong Rong and Yang Xiu met a common friend a few days ago, usually with the same smell, inseparable, and like brothers, their friend now has no official position, Kong Rong and Yang Xiu are interested in introducing him to the official career, if the Cao thief sends the two of them as envoys, they will inevitably bring this friend with them to ............." ”

After laughing, Yang Changshi's good student Ah Yi hurriedly attached himself to Sima Lang's ear and explained in a low voice.

…………………… Sima Lang, the confidential secretary, is quite competent, at least he has a good understanding of Boss Cao's thoughts, and the next morning, when Boss Cao convened a group of strategists, he really announced that he had decided to sue for peace with the Great Yuan Sangong, even if he handed over Emperor Han Xian - as long as he could free his hands to pull out the fangs of the insidious snake Deputy Director Tao!

Hearing Boss Cao's decision, Sima Lang, who was waiting for pen and ink on the side, of course his face changed slightly, Xun You and Cheng Heixin were of course overjoyed, Xun Yu and Guo Jia were silent, but they did not object, and strategists such as Mao Jue and Man Chong nodded again and again, agreeing that Boss Cao temporarily learned from Han Xin. Seeing that everyone had no objections, Boss Cao asked again, "Who can be the messenger?" Can the princes have volunteers? ”

No one said anything, including the full favor who had sent an envoy to Jizhou on behalf of Boss Cao several times - it was not so easy to carry the black cauldron of handing over Emperor Han Xian to ask for peace with the Third Duke of Yuan. Seeing this scene, Sima Lang took the opportunity to say: "Prime Minister, Yuan Benchu was born in the family of the Third Duke of the Fourth World, he admires himself and thinks very highly of himself, so he only sends ordinary envoys to negotiate such a major event, I am afraid that Yuan Benchu will feel that the Prime Minister's sincerity is not enough and he has missed a major event." A certain courage proposed that the prime minister should choose people who are famous all over the world among the famous people in Xuchang to talk about it, so as to succeed. ”

"Boda has a point." Boss Cao nodded, and then he took the initiative to say: "How about sending Kong Wenju (Kong Rong) to Jizhou to seek peace?" Kong Wenju is after Kong Qiu, only to be famous all over the world, when Yuan Shao Wenwen arrived in Xuchang before, Kong Wenju also persuaded me to send an envoy to sue for peace, and now send him to, I think he will not refuse. ”

"What the prime minister said is extremely true, Kong Wenju is worthy of this position." Cheng Yu, who was afraid of carrying the black cauldron, praised Xun You and others together, and Cheng Yu, who had participated in the Qingzhou War, also added: "Kong Wenju hates the pottery thief the most, and sent him to Jizhou to sue for peace, and he can also experience the evil of the pottery thief in front of Yuan Shao, persuade Yuan Shao to withdraw from our army, and allow our army to send troops south to crusade against the crime of pottery thieves." ”

Boss Cao applauded and laughed, and Sima Lang took the opportunity to say again: "Prime Minister, you should send another deputy, Yang Xiu, the son of Yang Biao, who recommended Taiwei Yang Biao, to go with him, although Yang Dezu is young, he is talented, astute, and can speak well, and even Kong Wenju is willing to bow down, and Yang Biao's father and son are related to Yuan Shao, and it is easy to get close to Yuan Shao if he is sent as an envoy." ”

"Berda's words are exactly what I want." Boss Cao, who hadn't had time to eat a crisp and wrote that the door was too wide, applauded and laughed, and hurriedly ordered: "Quickly go and pass on Kong Wenju and Yang Dezu to see you, I have to explain to them face to face." ”

Not to mention, several henchmen under Boss Cao's command were afraid of carrying the black pot and carrying infamy, and did not dare to go to Jizhou to seek peace on behalf of Boss Cao, but Kong Rong and Yang Xiu were not afraid, after listening to Boss Cao's explanation, on the contrary, they were secretly happy, thinking that their opportunity to show their faces and take revenge had finally come, so Kong Rong and Yang Xiu not only agreed, but also took the opportunity to recommend to Boss Cao: "Prime Minister, a certain person is willing to raise a person to go together, this talent is ten times better than a certain class, with him to go north to Jizhou with me, it will definitely be successful, persuaded Yuan Shao to stop the army and make peace. ”

"Who do you recommend?" Boss Cao asked curiously.

"Plain County Celebrity, You Heng You are peaceful." Kong Rong replied with a smile.

"When did Mr. Zhengping arrive in Xuchang, why don't I know?" Cao Laoda, who loves his life like his life, asked.

"Xuchang, who arrived half a month ago." Kong Rong replied: "When I was in Beihai, I met You Zhengping, became a confidant, and sent him many times to summon him to Xuchang. ”

"Mr. Zhengping is famous, and I have already heard like thunder, such a virtuous hermit, I should personally summon him."

Boss Cao was even more overjoyed, and was about to order the summoning of You Heng, when Sima Lang, who had received the guidance of his good brother, interjected and said: "Prime Minister, please Rong Lang has the courage to remind him, the Prime Minister is going to inspect the spring ploughing of Juntun outside the city today, and General Zaoyi, the general of Diannong Zhonglang, is also ready to welcome the Prime Minister's inspection, and the departure time is almost up." ”

Considering that he had turned his face with Deputy Director Tao, cut off the grain trade with Xuzhou, and was plagued by food shortages, and was still raising the Guanzhong area that was ruined by Dong Boss and his party, he did not dare to despise the major event of spring ploughing, and quickly changed his words and said: "By chance, it seems that Mr. Zhengping can only be summoned later, and the second prince can first take Mr. Zhengping north to Jizhou to assist in the peace matter, and when the major event is successful, I will summon Mr. Zhengping again and give him an official position." ”

"Prime Minister Xie." Kong Rong and Yang Xiu, who wanted to pull their good friends into the officialdom, hugged their fists and thanked them, and quietly glared at Sima Lang together, secretly scolding Sima Lang for talking too much and misleading the future of their friends.

(To be continued)
