Wang Xu stayed alone in the city for a while, thinking about the current situation in his mind, and after more than half an hour, he set off and returned to the mansion.

Then he plunged into the study, took out pen and ink, and carefully sorted out the situation of all parties on the table, because he felt doubtful and had an unreasonable sense of awkwardness!

"First of all, the spy in Yingchuan and Huainan was hit hard, and Cao Jun made a careful disregard, indicating that there were big moves in these two places, so it is very likely that Cao Cao's next deployment is related to these two places, if there is no accident, it must be an increase in troops, intending to attack Jingzhou or Sun Jian's Huainan, but what he wants most to take must be Jingzhou Nanyang, whether it is in people or things, for Cao Cao, taking Nanyang is definitely more important than taking Huainan, if there is an opportunity, it should be the first to attack Nanyang."

Wang Xu muttered to himself, drew two circles with a pen, and his face was extremely solemn.

"Subsequently, Cao Jun's detailed activities were frequent, intending to intensify the contradiction between me and Sun Jian, and his intention was to cause a full-scale war on this side and seek an opportunity to attack!" Wang Xu said, drawing two more circles, and connecting them with lines, referring to the current contradictions and entanglements.

"Now, I have sent good ministers to help Jiangdong secretly and share Jiaozhou with me, it seems that Cao Cao really intends to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, eager for the fisherman to profit, but why do I always feel a little wrong? What's the problem? At the beginning, Luo An also said that he felt that there was an unusual situation, could it be the same as how I felt at the moment? What's unreasonable? ”

Wang Xu kept drawing, and there were more and more circles and lines, but no matter how he pulled them, he couldn't connect them, and he seemed to ignore something, but he couldn't think of anything. It's like getting stuck in front of a hurdle. He had a feeling. As long as that film is pierced, it must be the truth.

But no matter how you think about it, it just doesn't work.

As the picture became more and more messy, his mood became a little irritable, and he felt like he wanted to crush the pen.

At this moment, a servant's report suddenly came from outside the door.

"King Chu, someone asks to see you!"

"Huh?"

He was slightly stunned, detached from that feeling. Then I found that I inadvertently turned the brush into an explosive shape, and I couldn't help but take a deep breath at the moment and adjust the feelings.

The irritability just now is not good for a calm analysis, and even if the result is obtained, it must be random speculation.

"Why have you been getting more and more grumpy lately?" Shaking his head self-deprecatingly, Wang Xu smiled, and then said loudly outside the door: "Who wants to see?" ”

"She was a beautiful woman with a peerless countenance. So the guards did not stop them, and were already outside the western arch of this courtyard. Let the old servant come and report it! The servant did not open the door, but stood outside the door and answered.

"Huh! These guards are really clever enough, and they know not to stop beautiful women! Wang Xu smiled and said loudly: "Since the guards all know the beauty of adults, then let this beauty in, this king wants to see, what kind of beauty will take the initiative to find it!" ”

"No!" The servant answered, and left.

Listening to his footsteps in the distance, Wang Xu frowned: "Beauty? Now that a beautiful woman is coming at this time, is it an assassin? Or is it seduction? ”

But before he could guess the reason, there was a sudden noisy dispute outside, and he couldn't hear what was being shouted.

After a while, a beautiful and moving female voice came into the room: "Wang Xu, let your people retreat, if you want to see it, you can see it, if you don't see it, why do you want to search my body first, I'm here to report the news, if you don't want to know, forget it!" ”

"This is ......" Wang Xu's eyes widened suddenly, the voice was too familiar to him. Zhang Ning? ”

At this time, Zhang Ning was confronting the guards, and those soldiers insisted on letting the maid search her body, but of course she refused, so she made such a fuss.

When it was intense, Wang Xu's figure appeared in the courtyard and strolled towards this side.

She saw it in a flash, and immediately shouted angrily: "Wang Xu, I kindly came to report to you, and you still let them search my body?" ”

"I didn't!" Wang Xu was still unhurried, and his steps were slow. "They should be afraid you're an assassin!"

"Then just hand over the sword, why do you have to search your body?" Zhang Ning's cold and pretty cheeks were a little red at this time.

"That's also to be on the safe side!" Wang Xu said unhurriedly, and then waved his hand at the guards and servants over there: "Wait a minute!" This is the king's woman! ”

Seeing that Zhang Ning could yell at Wang Xu, and when Wang Xu was still pleasant, those guards and servants were already stunned, and they were even more frightened at this time, and fell to their knees with a "poof".

"The princess forgives her sins!"

"Who is your princess, no nonsense!" Zhang Ning was angry and loudly denied it.

"That...... Ning'er, it's not okay to be Wang Guifei directly for the time being, you have to take your time, in fact, whether it is the princess or Wang Guifei, it's not all the same! Wang Xu continued to tease.

"You, you, you bastard!" Zhang Ning was ashamed and angry, every time she met Wang Xu, she was always in a bad rut.

"Since you're a bastard, then you didn't go far to save me back then, and you suffered hardship!" Wang Xu smiled, and then said to the guards and servants who were kneeling on the ground and trembling, "You guys go down first!" You have done your duty today, and not only have you done no wrong, but you deserve to be commended! ”

"Thank you King Chu, thank you princess!" The guards and servants were pardoned, and they didn't care what the relationship between the two was, so they left without saying a word.

At this time, Zhang Ning also turned his head, stared at the bright eyes, and said angrily: "Wang Xu, if you want to talk nonsense again, I won't tell you the information!" ”

"No information is more important than you!" Wang Xu blinked and played a scoundrel.

Hearing this, Zhang Ning's face turned red instantly, and he wanted to be angry, but he couldn't get angry, so he was left shy.

"You're not allowed to talk nonsense, do you hear it?"

"Alright! Go into the house and talk slowly, flirting here, people will hear it! Wang Xu said, he had already stepped forward to grab Zhang Ning's hand and strode towards the study.

"Whoever flirts with you, let go of me, don't hold my hand!"

"Oh!" Wang Xu obediently let go, and then suddenly grabbed Zhang Ning's slender waist: "Is this better?" ”

"You whore!" Zhang Ning's delicate body trembled, and she hurriedly ran out a few steps. "If you want to do this again, I'm really leaving!"

"Alright! Then I won't mess around with you anymore. Let's talk! Wang Xu quickly put away his smile. Walked generously to the study.

I don't know why. He stopped abruptly like this, Zhang Ning felt an inexplicable irritability in his heart, and even a feeling of loss, biting his lower lip tightly, his eyes were complicated with a little anger of his little daughter's family, but his steps involuntarily stepped away and followed him into the study.

When he entered the room and sat down, Wang Xu didn't have a hippie smile anymore. Instead, he asked solemnly: "Why did you come to Jiaozhou?" ”

"It's not because of you!" Zhang Ning rolled his eyes and complained: "My brother has been going back and forth between Jiaozhou and Jingzhou all these years, selling goods, and he hasn't been able to go back to that trip in the second half of last year, so you sent Zhao Yun to call!" The main passage road on the side of Xunpu Pass is completely impassable, and the two official roads of Yulin and Cangwu are mountain roads, and there are very few people walking back and forth in recent years, the situation is unknown, and we carry a large number of goods. Not only is it inconvenient to walk, but I am also worried about encountering mountain bandits. Besides, during the war now, the mountain road garrison will not be allowed to go! ”

"I see! No wonder since the start of the war in Jiaozhou, you have never come to the palace to visit your sister Xu Shu and them. Wang Xu was relieved.

"Humph! You also said that my brother and I have been trapped in this Jiaozhou land for more than half a year! ”

"Then why did you come to me today?"

"I heard my brother talk about it inadvertently that day, he saw a person he shouldn't have seen, and my brother also speculated some conspiracy, I haven't found a way to kill you, and I don't want you to die in the hands of others, so I'll come and tell you!"

"Oh?" Wang Xu raised his eyebrows, directly ignored his verbal threat, and asked rhetorically: "Who do you see?" ”

"Do you know Liu Bi and Gong Du?" Zhang Ning asked.

"Of course I know, in the early years, I was a yellow turban, and later I went into the mountains to become a coward, and in the early years, I raised troops in Runan, and later I was subdued by Cao Cao, and now I am a general of the Cao army!"

"yes, they were the Yellow Turbans back then!" Zhang Ning's beautiful eyes quickly dimmed, and he brought sadness in his heart.

Wang Xu hurriedly changed the topic: "What? Did your brother see them? ”

Zhang Ning has been under the guidance and seduction of Wang Xu and the women for so many years, those despair and pessimism have been washed away from the brain, although it is impossible to have no mustard in her heart, but after all, she is no longer so extreme and stubborn, of course, her own strength and the persuasion of her brother are also very important.

At this time, she quickly adjusted her feelings, nodded and said: "Well, both of them served in the Yellow Turban Army back then, and my brother was very familiar with them.

"At that time, he was standing on the hillside behind these people, so he was not discovered, but he saw clearly that two of them were Liu Bi and Gong Du, but they were not the leaders, and from their behavior, one of them seemed to be the commander of this group of people, but they didn't stop for long, ate some dry cakes and went on the road again."

"After my brother came back, he said that Liu Bi and Gong Du are now both generals of the Cao army, and the leader must have a higher status, and it is not unusual for him to appear in Jiaozhou, he speculated from the current battle situation that this group of people must have come to Jiaozhou to stir up trouble, intending to provoke you to start a full-scale war with the Sun family and take advantage of the opportunity!"

Wang Xu smiled, it turned out to be for this.

"Ning'er, I also have some speculation about this matter, but if I get your brother's statement, then it will be even more confirmed. Your brother is a talent, for so many years, I just listened to you, but I have never seen it, I don't know if he is willing to see it, now it is time to employ people, he is talented, he should not be ......"

"Impossible!" Before Wang Xu finished speaking, Zhang Ning's face turned cold again, and his eyes interrupted complicatedly. "My brother respects you very much, admires you very much, and doesn't hate you, but he can't work for you! That's what he once said! ”

Zhang Ning didn't explain, but Wang Xu already understood, and was silent and didn't say more!

After all, no matter how the Yellow Turban built the sin back then, and how inevitable the defeat was, Wang Xu was one of the direct promoters of the death of his father Zhang Jiao after all.

Wang Xu quickly adjusted his mentality and said with a smile: "Okay, I don't want those unhappy people, if you and your brother are in a hurry to send the goods back, let's take the official road in the north of Yulin County!" I led the troops south from there, I give you a letter, you can go unhindered, there are no bandits there, because there is nothing for the bandits to rob, now the road is uninhabited, very safe, only the road is difficult to walk, it will take a long time, you can also go there in the future. ”

Zhang Ning shook his head: "It's okay, anyway, it's not in a hurry, my brother has been doing business in this area of Yulin County recently, although the money earned is relatively small, it is always easier to get, although those goods are transported to Jingzhou to make a big profit, but the risk is also high, and it takes a lot of trouble, why bother?" ”

"Isn't your brother used to that way of doing business? If the inherent channel loses contact for a long time, you won't be able to eat that piece of pie in the future! Jiaozhou is relatively backward here, and it takes time to operate, after all, it is a small cake! Wang Xu said with a smile.

Zhang Ning obviously disagreed, and retorted: "People are not necessarily used to what they do, they can't eat big cakes, and it's the same for eating small cakes, as long as they can take it, why be persistent?" If you eat the cake, you can also eat the cake in the future, so why bother to eat the cake, the result is likely to be that the cake will not be eaten, and the cake will be gone! ”

"Huh! It's as you like......

Wang Xu said this with a smile, and was stunned for a moment, and the battle situation was like lightning and flint, floating quickly in his mind.

"Ning'er, what did you just say? Say it again! ”

ps: The first two days broke out in a row, and I wanted to last a few more days, but in the past two days of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I was so busy jumping around, I really couldn't do anything, I could only ensure that the two chapters were updated normally, and one more chapter was updated today, and one more chapter could be very late! (To be continued......)
