Chapter 171: Jizhou (2)

Guan Chun's arrival in Yuxian County was already the fourth day after leaving Chenliu County, after all, he was a native of Jizhou, and he really didn't know much about the geography of Chenliu County, and it was inevitable that there would be twists and turns along the way. When he arrived in Yuxian County, Guo Jia had already prepared everything. Of course, it is of course difficult to trust Guan Chun, a military sacrificial wine who is as young as Xu Ji, but since Xu Ji has named him, he must have come to find this person by himself.

In fact, Guan Chun He didn't know what Han Fu's shortcomings were, after all, Han Fu was old, not to mention that he had no male ambition, and even became a little weak, which is why everyone in Jizhou wanted to vote for another master, but Guan Chun was an old courtier promoted by Han Fu after all, although he knew that Han Fu was not and insufficient, but how could he be like the rest of Jizhou and Han Fu would perish? This is also the reason why Guan Chun worked tirelessly to come to Chen Liu. And although Guan Chun is not a top strategist and cannot be said to be a strategist, he can also see that Gongsun Chan is not a problem at all, the real opponent is Yuan Shao and not the rest, and the reason why Xu Ji is regarded as an arm by Guan Chun is also because of Xu Ji's vision and combat effectiveness when the princes met the alliance.

As for the characters under Xu Ji's command, Guan Chun doesn't know much, but this is normal, Xu Ji really entered the eyes of the world after becoming a concubine, and at that time, Guo Jia was still thinking about ways to make up the shadow in Yuxian. So Guan Chun's sentence after meeting: "Why is Mr. Fengxiao so young?" "It's not surprising at all. And Guo Jia also expected that there must be such a question, so he just smiled indifferently and said: "Gan Luo was a Shangqing at the age of twelve, Guan Zhi is too much of a fuss, I love the lord and now I am only the same age as me." ”

Guo Jia's answer naturally couldn't satisfy Guan Chun, let alone reassure him. But Guo Jia's words are also good, and he really shouldn't be so questionable before he has seen the ability. Thinking that there is a request for someone now, Guan Chun also respectfully bowed and apologized: "Forgive the sin, Guan Chun is clumsy." It's just that I don't know how the Lord of the Wine Sacrifice can change the situation in Jizhou? When Guo Jia heard this, he didn't answer immediately, but motioned for Guan Chun to sit down, and the place where the two of them were now was Xu Ji's office in Yu County. After Guan Chun sat down, Guo Jia smiled and said, "Where did Guan Zhen think the disaster in Jizhou came from?" ”

Guan Chun was silent when he heard this question, of course he didn't know the answer, Guan Chun's only concern was what Guo Jia's intentions were, and now that he was on someone else's territory, he really couldn't help but think about it more. However, Guo Jia didn't mean to answer Guan Chun, he raised a cup of tea on the table in front of him and took a sip and said: "In my opinion, those who are engaged in worrying about it must be Yuan Shaoye!" "This is an obvious thing, since Xu Ji told himself to come to Guo Jia. So if Guo Jia didn't even have this vision, then Guan Chundao could really walk away, so after saying this to Guo Jia, Guan Chun still had a calm face.

Guo Jia was not surprised, since Guan Chun could be the envoy, this bit of qi cultivation kung fu naturally still had to have, Guo Jia was unmoved and continued: "Speaking of Yuan Shao's current strength, it seems that it is not enough to take Jizhou, so since he asked my lord for help, there must have been people in Jizhou who have already thrown themselves to Yuan Shao!" The words are questions, but the tone is extremely affirmative, not so much that Guo Jia is asking questions, it is better to say that Guo Jia is so determined, and after hearing Guo Jia's words, Guan Chun can no longer maintain his calmness. His face changed and he blurted out: "Where does the sacrificial wine come from?" ”

Guo Jia smiled when he heard this, and replied positively, but asked: "A few days ago, the lord sent news to me, and my father-in-law Sun Zan seems to have plans to attack Jizhou, but is this the case?" Guan Chun nodded, and Guo Jia asked again: "Has anyone persuaded Han Tingshi to ask Yuan Shao for help?" After Guo Jia asked this question, Guan Chun was really convinced by Guo Jia, and even regarded Guo Jia as a celestial, he couldn't help but wonder: "How did Mr. know about this?" Even in Jizhou, there are few people who know about it! ”

And Guo Jia just smiled and said, "What's so difficult about this? Since Gongsun Chan intends to seize Jizhou. Han Tingshi was unable to resist and naturally asked for help, Han Tingshi was originally Yuan's protΓ©gΓ©, and Yuan Benchu is now the Bohai Taishou. In the reasonable, in the public and private. I couldn't even find the best choice for Han Thorn History. But this is just a lie, in fact, all this has already been transmitted to Guo Jia and Xu Ji's table through the shadow. Guo Jiadu admired his acting skills, and made up such a set of absolutely reasonable and flawless words in the blink of an eye. Guan Chun naturally didn't know that there was this section, and immediately agreed with Guo Jia's explanation, so he went on to ask: "What does Mr. So?" ”

Guo Jia didn't continue to say but smiled: "Guan Zhi, even if I tell you now, what's the use?" Since Guan is here, I expect that Han Thorn Shi must have not listened to your advice, so it is useless to say more, why don't you wait until you see Han Thorn Shi and explain it to you, what do you think? Guan Chun was naturally dissatisfied, but as Guo Jia said, since he had come here, it was enough to show that Han Fu had indeed not listened to his advice, so that he knew Guo Jia's plan to say that it would not have any effect if he listened to Han Fu, so he had to agree at the moment.

Everything has been done, Guan Chun naturally urged Guo Jia to go to Yecheng with him on the road not far away, and Guo Jia waited for such a sentence, originally Xu Ji's arrangement was to ask Guo Jia to bring a team of phantoms to accompany him as a guard, but Guo Jia refused, the only person he brought was Chen Dao, of course, Guo Jia was not really so arrogant, just to calm Guan Chun's heart, he couldn't carry too many entourages with him, since Xu Ji gave him enough manpower to dispatch, of course he would not refuse, but he needed the shadow to go behind him.

Needless to say, there is no need to say much about the bumpy road, Guo Jia is also used to this kind of life, and this journey is not too boring, first of all, he and Chen Zhi have not had much experience working together, and the two naturally need more understanding and tacit understanding. However, this is not a difficult thing for Chen Zhi, Chen Zhi knows more about Guo Jia than Guo Jia imagined, which also saves a lot of trouble, but this is also because most of Guo Jia's temperament is quite similar to Xu Ji, so the two can cooperate so seamlessly.

Compared to the time when the three of them arrived in Yecheng, the situation in Jizhou had changed again, Guan Chun was also a cautious person, and he naturally would not risk recklessly exposing the important help he invited from Yuxian County to the attack of the people in Jizhou. So Guan Chun first settled Guo Jia and Chen to live with them. However, the post house cannot be occupied, after all, the post house is under the jurisdiction of the government. It was hard to guarantee that the news would not be leaked to others, so Guan Chun took the two to a restaurant. Chen Zhi looked up and saw the strong big characters on the plaque that read "Hero Building", and he was immediately stunned: "This is the ...... of Luoyang"

Guan Chun also smiled when he heard this: "Yes, it is the branch of Luoyang Hero Building in Yecheng, the shopkeeper here is a person who knows a lot, the two of you live here temporarily, and then I will ask Mr. to meet my family Assassin Shi when I find out the news, I don't know if it is possible?" Guo Jia naturally wanted to do this, so he just took this opportunity to establish contact with the ghost of Yecheng first, and then arrange for the future shadow to follow him from Yu County. So Guo Jia said as a difficult color: "So." Since we are guests, we naturally follow the arrangement of the Lord's family, but we still hope to do it as soon as possible, otherwise it will change later. ”

Guo Jia is naturally not in a hurry, the reason why he shows such a look is to give Guan Chun a hint, although these little tricks are not on the stage, they are extremely effective things, and Guan Chun naturally can't help but feel a little relieved in his heart, for Guan Chun, the current situation in Yecheng is enough for him to be upset, if Guo Jia has any more requirements that make him embarrassed, it will inevitably make him extremely unhappy, but Guo Jia's reasonable answer does make him feel a lot more comfortable. In this way, the attitude towards Guo Jia is naturally more and more friendly.

The hero building in Yecheng naturally cannot be compared with Luoyang, but because it is located in a prosperous place like Yecheng, it is naturally unique, and Guan Chun said to Guo Jia with a deep meaning: "Mr. Guo, as the so-called 'people are not romantic teenagers'." There are a lot of beauties in this hero building, and Mr. Guo can enjoy one or two here. Guo Jia's face turned red immediately, although he had always been conceited as a prodigal son. But I have no interest in this pink skeleton and have never understood it, which is of course the credit of Xu Ji and Xun Yu. Xu Ji has no time to go to this kind of place for recreation, even if he has a little free time, he will stay in the house to accompany his wife or study. Xun Yu is even more humble and gentleman, so Guo Jia has never been to this kind of place, and now Guan Chun's words make Guo Jia a little embarrassed.

And Guan Chun was a little surprised to see Guo Jia like this, judging from Guo Jia's appearance, he is indeed the kind of wise and beautiful young man, and he is the only one he has seen in his life, but unexpectedly such a person seems to have never experienced such a battle, so he smiled and said: "I don't want Mr. is not a person who has been in the field for a long time, but it doesn't matter, Mr. Guo will definitely feel at home in the Hero Building." Guo Jia was even more embarrassed when he heard this: "That's it, let's go first." ”

Seeing Guo Jia's attitude, Guan Chun no longer ridiculed, but led the way into the Hero Building first, and to Chen Zhi's surprise, the streets outside the Hero Building were full of carriages, obviously there were a lot of guests, Guan Chun saw this and explained to Chen Zhi: "The shopkeeper of this Hero Building is quite shrewd, so that the little guy can park the carriage for the dignitaries outside the Hero Building, so that it can be so orderly." Guo Jia secretly said in his heart that Xu Ji was shrewd, and he even knew something about business, where could the rest of the people think of this?

The three of them squeezed to the door of the hero building, and a small servant greeted them to open the way for the three of them, and when they entered the door, they saw a fat man with a rather round figure who moved to Guan Chun with difficulty and said: "It turned out that he was engaged in adulthood, how can he have time to patronize today?" But Guan Chun's face remained unchanged and he was cold-eyed, obviously not taking the person in front of him in his eyes, and the fat man in front of several people did not get angry at all, but said more respectfully: "Engage in the adults for a while, and the shopkeeper will accompany the wine in the back, and he will come immediately." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard a neutral voice from the hall: "It turned out that Guan Zhi was here, Zhang Zheng lost his welcome, I hope you don't blame me." The hearty and sleek meaning in the tone is obvious, the three of them followed the sound and looked, only to see one person turned out from the back of the hall, this person is tall and thin, nearly thirty years old, the only thing that is a little strange is that his left leg is quite inconvenient between walking, obviously this person is the shopkeeper of Yecheng Hero Building Zhang Gu.

Zhang Gu's face was slightly yellow, the traces of wind and frost on his face were quite conspicuous, and there was a businessman's shrewdness and smoothness in his eyes, but Guo Jia saw a different kind of unpredictability. His lips were thin, a little cold, and his nose was hooked, all of which looked strange on his body but showed a different kind of charm.

After careful observation, Guo Jia finally understood why this person was sent by Bocai to Yecheng to take on important tasks, this is a person who seems to be honest and honest but extremely shrewd, and even he has no less calm than Liang Xi and Xun Yu's wisdom.

And Guan Chun's cold face also showed a smile after seeing Zhang Gu. Seeing Zhang Gu walking towards him unhurriedly, he also replied with a smile: "Shopkeeper Zhang, I haven't seen him for a while." Are your legs and feet better? ”

Zhang Gu finally approached at this time, and his originally dark eyes suddenly flashed a trace of surprise. He knew Chen Dao, and he was even more familiar than most people, he was one of the earliest cavalry soldiers, because he was not very injured by the attack on Zhang Miao's grain road, and he did not receive timely treatment, which caused his legs and feet to be a little inconvenient before leaving the barracks, so he was not unfamiliar with this commander at that time. And when he saw Guo Jia, his eyes also flashed with a look of clarity, although he had not seen Guo Jia with his own eyes, but as Xu Ji's intelligence source at the highest level in Yecheng, Zhang Gu had naturally seen Guo Jia's image.

However, Zhang Gu also knew that this was not the time to elaborate. Just swept the two of them lightly, then turned his head to Guan Chun and said, "It's the same, it's a little painful on a rainy day, but thank you for your concern." I don't know what I'm doing here? ”

Guan Chun then remembered to introduce Guo Jia to Zhang Gu: "Shopkeeper Zhang, this is Mr. Guo who has been left by Chen, you also know that Yecheng has been quite restless recently, so I want to arrange him to live temporarily in your hero building." All the expenses are credited to my account. ”

Zhang Gu turned around and said with a look of surprise: "I don't want to be a fellow villager, I'm really embarrassed." While talking, he saluted Guo Jia, Guo Jia couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this Zhang Gu had good acting skills, and he could still fool the past so fake and real in such a sudden situation. However, although Guo Jia secretly praised in his heart, his face did not show any flaws, but smiled and said politely: "The shopkeeper Zhang is very polite, and I hope that the shopkeeper will take care of it more in the future." ”

After settling Guo Jia, Guan Chun naturally needed to rush back to Han Fu to recover his life, Guan Chun couldn't accurately grasp Han Fu's attitude, and even he couldn't guarantee that Han Fu would definitely choose to cooperate with Xu Ji. As Guo Jia said before, Yuan Shao is definitely the best choice for Han Fu, and Yuan Shao is indeed more worthy of Han Fu's trust, but it may not be the case for Han Fu's old subordinates who are like Guan Chun. Even if the so-called righteousness is put aside, once Yuan Shao enters Jizhou, then Guan Chun and the others will remember that the interests of Chen Wei will all be in vain, and this kind of result is obviously not what Guan Chun and others want to see.

As for Guan Chun's attitude and perception of Xu Ji, it doesn't really matter. It is enough to know that Xu Ji does not want to see Yuan Shao become bigger, and the contradiction between Xu Ji and Yuan Shao has been going on for a long time. Now that Xu Ji is willing to contribute to this matter, it is naturally something that Guan Chun is happy to see, of course, Guan Chun is also guarding against Xu Ji, Jizhou only needs to be in the hands of Han Fu, and for Guan Chun and others, any outsider will destroy their interests.

It was precisely because of this that Guan Chun did not go to see Han Fu immediately, the first place he went to was Geng Wu's mansion, and he had to inform Geng Wu of these things in order to make more adequate preparations.

And after Guan Chun left, Guo Jia and Chen Zhi were also free, if they lived in the post house, they might not only be discovered by Yuan Shao's people, but they might also be monitored by Guan Chun, but they were in the hero building as if they were on their own territory. After Zhang Gu took Guo Jia and Chen Zhi to the guest room, he turned around and said respectfully: "I have seen Lord Sacrificial Wine and Captain Wuwei, and I ask the two adults to forgive me for the rudeness of Zhang Gu under the Shadow Guard." After avoiding outsiders, Zhang Gu seemed more calm, and even a little negative, so Guo Jia just waved his hand lightly and asked: "It's okay, I just want to know what the situation in Yecheng is recently, I am bound to do something when I come on the orders of the lord, but now that there is a lack of information, it is really difficult to make a move, I think you seem to be quite open in Yecheng, there must be a lot of valuable information to provide to me." ”

Zhang Gu bowed respectfully and said: "I don't know about the sacrificial wine, Yuan Shao has made some moves recently, and even sent people to propose marriage to the Zhen family, the largest family in Jizhou." According to what his subordinates saw, if he couldn't stop it, I was afraid that Yuan Shao would inevitably enter Jizhou. Guo Jia frowned tightly when he heard this, he really didn't expect Yuan Shao to have such a move, and this can be said to be the most difficult for him to stop, it is almost difficult to succeed in marrying this way to stop, but even so, Guo Jia has to find a way to stop it, otherwise with Zhen's help, Yuan Shao's entry into Jizhou is almost a sure thing, which is a result that Guo Jia will never accept.

But this is easy to say, but it is extremely difficult to do, even if there is Zhang Gu's help, there are still too many restrictions in Yecheng after all, and Guo Jia really has nothing to do before the follow-up manpower is reached, of course, at this time Guo Jia already has his plan, and now what he is waiting for is just the opportunity.
