Chapter 8, the key to breaking the game
Shi Yi planned to let Shi Yi go to Cao Bao and agreed on the marriage date between Shi Xun and Cao's daughter, but who would have thought that Shi Kuan would suddenly run back to stop it. Shi Yi asked him the reason, Shi Kuan first gave his father a salute, and then Shi Shiran turned to Shi Xun: "I heard that Liu Xuande sent a message to say that Hongfu came here to present a gift to Tao Envoy Jun for Cao Yanzhou, but is it true?" β
Shixun nodded: "That's true." Yes Kuan smiled slightly: "Since Hongfu has been released, he should be public first and then private, and he has not yet paid homage to Tao Envoy, how can he set his own wedding date first?" I'm afraid it's not appropriate. β
Shi Xun arched his hand and said: "The third brother has learned a lesson. However, it will be late today, and I will go to visit Tao Envoy, and I will be disrespectful, and my brother wants to go to the pilgrimage tomorrow morning - since I have arrived in Tancheng, I might as well go to meet Cao Zhonghui and Cao Ziyuan. β
It is Kuan said: "Official business first, before the official business is completed, you and I are close relatives, and we can temporarily live in the village, but the Cao family has not finished marrying Hongfu after all, so it is not appropriate to meet first." Shixun nodded: "That's right." But I don't know if Chen Yuanlong can be in the city? He's also a relative of my family, so you might as well see him. Whether it was wide or shook his head: "Let the king send Yuanlong to Guangling on business." β
It's Xun Xin who said okay, you are an acquaintance and you don't plan to let me see it. What is "public before private", it is righteous and strict, but even if it makes sense, can you shout "no" from afar? If you can't come to discuss the marriage date, you can't meet each other, you will block it, and Chen Deng happened to be sent to another county by Tao Qian at this time - is this a coincidence? This is certainly not a coincidence!
He was keenly aware that since Liu Bei entered the country, a turbulent undercurrent began to roll up in the political arena of Xuzhou. If it hadn't been for the two thousand years later, he might not have woven all these clues, but Xun could go beyond the knowledge of everyone in this era, and find out the black hand behind this shady curtain - Elk, it must be Elk!
He excused himself from the fatigue of the journey, went down to rest for the time being, and then wandered around the room, and went through the cause and effect well. I have to admit that there are indeed factors such as "phase" between people, and some people just look at some people, such as Lu Zhuzhi and Liu Bei. In the original history, Liu Bei's situation was slightly better than now, and he was also a guest general in Xuzhou, but he had already gained Tao Qian's trust and gave him a gain of 3,000 soldiers and horses. But even so, he is not a decisive force, why would Lu Zhu be willing to sacrifice the Thorn Shi Seal to him for no apparent reason?
Obviously, Lu Zhu did this to deal with Cao Hong and Cao Bao's brothers, and it is also obvious that the Cao brothers were not willing to do so under Liu Bei's rule, so Cao Bao later switched to Lu Bu. When he first arrived in Xuzhou, the situation in Xuzhou was not deviated from the right track because of the little butterfly wings, and at that time, the Elk and Cao families were secretly at odds, and they were evenly matched. Therefore, Tao Qian was reluctant to be abandoned, and also planned to use his family as a link to bridge the contradiction between the two powerful forces and unite them. But looking at today's wide performance, it seems that the two families of Elk and Cao have a crack again, where is the source of this rift?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be shockedβthe source of this rift was on him! He conspired with Chen Deng to dedicate Xuzhou to Cao Cao after Tao Qian's death, Cao Hong sounded the drum without a heavy hammer, and guessed it directly, couldn't the old fox of Elk Zhu guess? The original plan was: the combination of the four families of Elk, Cao, Yes, and Chen, no matter who Xuzhou belonged to, could not shake the foundation of these four families. But if Xuzhou finally belongs to Cao Cao, he is Cao Cao's adviser and Cao Bao's son-in-law, Cao Hong and Cao Bao are Cao Cao's kind...... When the time comes, the Cao family will definitely be strong, and the Elk family will be suppressed or even squeezed out!
If you are a moose, will you tolerate the formation of this situation? And if you want to break this situation, the best way is to dedicate Xuzhou to others, for example-Liu Bei!
Obviously, the Elk clan has secretly joined hands with Liu Bei, and may have made some unsightly secret agreement, and Liu Bei was able to enter Xuzhou safely, which should be borrowed from Elk Zhu. If the Elk clan wants to dominate the family in the post-Tao Qian era, this plan must exclude the Cao clan, and Chen Deng, who is inclined to Cao Cao and resourceful, should be driven to other counties for the time being, so as not to get in the way.
Thinking about it a little more, although Tao Qian wanted to use home as a link between Moose and Cao, this bond has not finally been formed, because he has not yet married Cao's daughter, and has stayed in Yanzhou for many years, not in Xuzhou. But it was Kuan who had already married the Elk family, and looking at his actions today, his eldest brother Luzhu's plans, he also knew a little bit about it, so he had to stop himself from contacting the Cao family.
What should I do? How to break this game? Yeshun kept thinking that his brain hurt, and he couldn't come up with an ugly one. recalled that when Yuan Shu's conspiracy was exposed, it was with Cao De helping by his side; The plan to connect Cao was set with Chen Deng's secret assistance; Even Cheng Yang's verdict was thanks to Lu Hong's strength. It seems that he is good for nothing but a mouth, and he can't think of any tricks when he is alone - thief God, are you deliberately tricking me? Why do you force me to re-evaluate my abilities every time I just make some achievements, and the result of the evaluation is a piece of!
Yes Xun just thought about it at the time, why did he think so much, anyway, Tao Qian will not die immediately, Liu Bei will not occupy the magpie's nest tomorrow, Lao Tzu Ming'er has seen Tao Qian, and then went to Cao Hong to discuss-At that time, what reason do you have to stop me? Besides, Shi Kuan is just afraid of more twists and turns, and he may not be able to guess that I have already snooped through their plot.
The idea of shrinking in distress and picking a pick is the easiest to decide. After making up his mind, Shixun's heart finally settled down, and he stopped at the moment, and casually found a mat and sat with a basket to relax his legs. Sitting and sitting, I don't know how Lu Dao came, I fell asleep in a daze, and in my dream, I saw Lu Zhu's nasty face swaying in front of me, and then somehow, this face suddenly became Liu Bei again, his face sank like water, and he had the stinky virtue of a righteous man and a gentleman - you are serious, you have to be a decent man and a gentleman, and there will be no more evil in the world. Throughout the ages, how can there be upright men and gentlemen who have risen in troubled times!
was in a daze, and suddenly heard someone calling: "Seventh son, the master told you to go to dinner." It was Xun Meng who woke up, looked up at the window, and saw a dim yellow, estimated that it was four or five o'clock - the ancients had two meals a day, the first meal was in the afternoon, and the second meal was in the afternoon.
He stood up, stretched, and replied, "I'll go." "At the moment, I was dressed and planned to go to dinner with Shi Yi and them, but I just thought of Shi Yi in my mind, and suddenly I had a flash of inspiration - yes, maybe the key to breaking the game is in this uncle!
Shi Xun hurriedly ran to meet Shi Yi, Shi Yi took his hand, and planned to go to the main hall for dinner, but Shi Xun suddenly knelt down: "After the little nephew meets Tao Yuanjun tomorrow, I will ask the eldest uncle to quickly pack up and go to Yanzhou with the little nephew - this Xuzhou can't live!" β
Shi Yi frowned: "What does Hongfu mean by this?" β
Shi Xun said: "Seeing that Xuzhou is about to have civil strife, my uncle's body is not suitable to stand under the dangerous wall." β
Shi Yi stared at him for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh, pulled him to sit down, and said, "I also feel that there seems to be an unspeakable hidden between Hongfu and the third brother of you-how can Xuzhou be chaotic?" Tell me about it. β
It was Xun Xin who said that he really deserved to be an old bureaucrat, and his observation ability was really keen, okay, since you are aware of it, then I will simply say it. He said: "The reason why my family married the two families of Elk and Cao is to make Tao Yuanjun want to bridge the rift between the two families to protect Xuzhou." However, looking at the meaning of the third brother today, he doesn't want me to see the Cao family, and it must be a dispute between Elk and Cao. What the third brother schemed, probably he was the son-in-law of the Elk family, as long as the Elk family was safe, the family could also be calm, but he didn't want the Cao family to have military power, if he fought, the outcome was unpredictable. When the chaos is really coming, the Cao family has soldiers and the Elk family has wealth, so what do I have to worry about if I am my family? The crisis cannot be involved, and there will be disasters if you do, please make a quick decision from my uncle, or follow me to Yanzhou. β
Shi Yi kept frowning and brushing his beard to listen to Shi Xun's explanation, and as soon as he finished speaking, he immediately stood up and ordered the servant-"Quickly summon Shu Mian to come." β
Well, it's Xun Xin who said, and this has opened the first gap in the chaotic situation. What can you do if you are wide next to the elk's house? What can you do if you don't let me see the Cao family? What can you do if you think you have a plan? Your father is still alive, and you haven't gone to other states and counties, and you are committed to the Confucian concept, and you haven't dared to divide it, so Lao Tzu just uses patriarchal power and clan power to suppress you!
The time was not big, it was Kuan who came in a hurry, and when he saw his father sitting opposite Shixun, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Shi Yi asked him to sit down, and then asked Shi Xun to repeat what he had just said to him to the third brother. When he heard this, his face couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and he asked him: "What your seventh brother said, is it true?" Shi Kuan nodded slightly: "What Hongfu said, seven points are true, but ......" He suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Shi Xun: "He conspired with the Cao family to surrender Xuzhou to Cao Mengde!" β
Ah, it was Xun Xin who said that we don't bring this, and we don't bring it to expose people directly, is it necessary for you to say it so bluntly? Well, since you are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust, and sneered slightly at the moment: "I'm afraid that the third brother conspired with the Elk clan to dedicate Xuzhou to Liu Xuande." β
Hearing this, his face turned blue and uncertain, and he said angrily: "Why did Hongfu say this? I don't have this heart for my brother. Shi Xun carefully observed his expression, it seemed that he was seven points embarrassed and three points confused, but there was no horror that the conspiracy was exposed on the spot - well, look at it, you are also a smart face and a stupid belly, and you were used as a gun by your own brother-in-law, right?
The always calm Kuan began to be angry, and he sold well when he got cheap, but he calmed down, and smiled faintly: "The third brother is a little restless, listen to the younger brother's analysis of its origin." With what the third brother thought, Liu Xuande was summoned to divide the Cao clan's soldiers, echoing with the inside and outside of the Elk clan, and the Elk clan could be safe. However, the world's affairs, with force, with the potential, if this momentum is successful, then the Cao family is also incapable, so he wants to give Xuzhou to others, but the Elk family is not allowed, so what can I do? In this case, why did the Elk clan let the third brother prevent me from meeting the Cao clan? Could it be that the third brother is not aware of the true intentions of the Elk clan at all?! β
