Guan Hai and the others were pushed out of the big tent, and Shi Xun couldn't help but show a look of horror and annoyance on his face. Cao Cao understood what he meant, grabbed his hand, lowered his voice and said, "Hongfu, don't be suspicious, since I promised you, I won't regret it." I just told the soldiers to keep an eye on Guan Hai and don't let them sneak away. ”

Shi Xun looked at Cao Cao's eyes, and he barely believed it - at this time, Guan Hai's "pig" had already entered the tiger's mouth, even if he didn't believe it, there was no way to reverse the situation.

At the time of the surrender this time, Cao Cao arranged for the main generals and staff of the Yellow Turban to besiege the Yellow Turbans on all sides, and most of them also rushed back, and at that moment Cao Cao took Shixun's hand and introduced them one by one - Mao Ji in Zhizhong, Lu Qian in Dongjun, and Li Qian in Jibei, these are the subordinates of the Yanzhou Thorn History System; There are also Sima Lifeng of other departments Cao Ren, Sima Cao Hong of other departments, Xia Houdun, Zhichong captain Xiahoudun, military fake Sima Trap Captain Lejin, military Sima Yu Ban, plus Ren Jun Ren Boda, Xi Xian Xi Zhicai, these are the subordinates of the general system of Xingfenwu.

Yeshun greeted them one by one. What he wanted to see most was actually the famous "Xun Lingjun", but unfortunately he was not here - it is estimated that he is still helping Cao Cao guard the base camp in Dongwuyang.

Cao Cao introduced his subordinates and generals, and at the same time kept praising Shi Xun, what "young and old", "splendid belly", "unparalleled wisdom", that set of words is a string of strings. It was Xun who made a fuss, saying that he didn't dare to be - he knew that he had a few catties and a few taels, but he didn't dare to listen to these cowhides and fluttered from then on. Cao Cao said: "My father is also thanks to Hongfu's preservation, so he was able to survive Yanzhou - come, go to illness, you and I thank Hongfu for this kindness and virtue together." ”

It was only then that Xun noticed that it was Cao De who was next to Cao Cao's main seat-I rely on brother, were you really there from the beginning? Or did it flash in the middle of the way? Sorry I didn't notice again......

Seeing that Cao Cao's brothers were about to kneel on the ground, they thanked Shi Xun, but Shi Xun hurriedly helped him. Cao Cao got up as soon as he helped him, and he couldn't help but slander his belly: With your strength, do you really want to kneel and I can help me up? Please struggle a little, your acting is too fake, and it is not on the same level at all when you wanted to cut me yesterday.

Cao Cao held Shi Xun's hand tightly, his expression was extremely sincere, and he said to him: "Listen to the quick words, Hongfu, you are not from Tao Gongzu, you are still white, since this is the case, then don't go back to Xuzhou, or come to help me." Engaged in the state, the order of the county governor, and the shogunate to join the army, you can choose at will, even if the county guard and the minister of the state are not negotiable. ”

It was Xun Xin who said that you really dare to make a wish, I have a white body, and I haven't even raised filial piety, if I jump to 2,000 stones in an instant, the spittle of the corporal in the world will drown you if I don't drown me, but also drown you - even Liu Bei, he shook it on the plain order first, and then he took the position of the plain phase, isn't it? Cao Cao wanted to recruit him, which he had expected. In fact, he hadn't come to Cao Ying yet, and he realized that Cao De had this meaning, as long as Cao De told Cao Cao, Cao Cao would definitely conquer himself, but if there was no thrilling and twisting lobbying before, the other party would not have brought out so many high-level positions to let himself choose, and Dingtianer would be a state Peng.

So he had already made up his mind about this, and smiled faintly at the moment: "It's not that he doesn't want to serve Cao Gong, but he comes naked......"

"The minister comes naked", this is an allusion. It is said that when Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, started a business, Chen Ping left Xiang Yu and came to meet him. But soon he got a small report, saying that Chen Ping had taken bribes from the generals on a large scale, and if he gave more money, he would arrange a good position, and if the money was less, he would arrange a bad position. Liu Bang summoned Chen Ping to question, and Chen Ping said: "The minister came naked, and he was not able to be funded." ”

The "naked" here, of course, does not mean that Chen Ping is stripped naked and came to see Liu Bang naked, but that he has no assets, so if he doesn't accept bribes, he won't be able to live at all. Now it is Xun also means the same thing, you Cao Cao wants me to stay in Yanzhou, yes, but my family is in Xuzhou, my relatives and industries are in Xuzhou, and I came to you alone, what do I rely on to eat.

He had already made up his mind, since he had already fallen in love with Cao Cao, he would simply not go back to Xuzhou - how comfortable he was to be alone, it was ten thousand times stronger than staying at home and having to look at the faces of several brothers. And he is planning to sell Xuzhou, in case Tao Qian wakes up one day, he will be Zhang Song's second ...... Ah no, number one. It's better to flash first, and the thunder of Xuzhou will let Chen Deng and Cao Hong go against them.

"Hongfu rest assured," Cao Cao hurriedly said, "Qing saved my father's life, my father's millions of assets, even if they all funded you, it should be......" It was Xun Xin who said that it should be, and the old man had to agree, the old man is not dead, you haven't inherited the inheritance, and you promise to use it." Of course, Cao Cao will not just talk about his father's property, he immediately promised that as long as Xun Ken stays, the property and the farmhouse, there will definitely be no shortage.

It was Xun who struck while the iron was hot, and said that there was still something to ask Cao Gong to promise, and Cao Cao said that you can say it and listen to it, as long as I can do it, nothing will be allowed.

After bringing Cao Song and Cao De back last night, the Cao Cao brothers fell asleep and talked all night, Cao De told his brother all the experiences along the way, as well as all the speculations about himself and Shi Xun. Cao Cao immediately picked up the water cups on the pillow and threw them on the wall, smashing them - "Yuan Shu, I don't share the sky with you!" ”

Cao Cao and Yuan Shuna have also been friends for many years, even if they are not as good as Yuan Shao Tie Porcelain, it is completely to the point of "entrusting his wife and offering his children". There are three people who have this kind of friendship with Cao Cao: one is Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao once entrusted his family to Cao Cao to take care of; the second is Zhang Miao, in the original history, when Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, he entrusted his family to Zhang Miao; The third is Yuan Shu, when Cao Cao offended Dong Zhuo, he hurriedly ran away from Luoyang, and threw away all his wife and children, but Yuan Shu helped protect it, and sent it back to Cao Cao in Chenliujun after the most reluctance.

But later, the Yuan brothers fought, and Cao Cao followed Yuan Shao, so he was hostile to Yuan Shu, but in fact, he hadn't really torn his face. It's good now, Cao Cao said in his heart that the so-called "a gentleman can't say evil words" and "a person's sin is not as good as his wife and children", but you are so mad that you want to send someone to assassinate my father several times! "And when the grain is sufficient in the coming year, a certain will raise three armies, go down to Yingchuan, take Nanyang, and cut off the head of the dog's head!"

So today Cao Cao is sincerely grateful to Shixun, on the one hand, he tried his best to keep Shixun, on the other hand, no matter what conditions Xun proposed, as long as he can take it out, it will not affect the territory and power, it must be all-encompassing.

So Xun raised three fingers in front of everyone: "Xun came to help Cao Gong collect the Qingzhou Yellow Turban this time, and his intention is three: first, in order to restore peace in Yanzhou, the war can be stopped as soon as possible; Second, they are all big Han people, only for the sake of bullying and bewitching with their horns, so they embarked on the evil road, millions of people, more women and children, who can bear to see them fill in the ditch? Third, he was gracious to me, so I came to save his life. ”

Cao Cao was taken aback: "How can Guan Hai be kind to you?" ”

So Shi Xun learned about the past on Fuyong Mountain - of course, he tampered with the slogan shouted by Guan Hai, just saying that Guan Hai wanted them to worship Huang Taiyi - and finally said that he cried hoarse because of the death of his sad monarch, and it was all because Guan Hai was frightened to recover.

Cao Cao stroked his beard: "In this way, this Guan Hai Zhilu respects filial piety and Confucianism, but it is not useless." ”

Shi Xun took the opportunity to ask: "Therefore, I asked Cao Gong to give Guan Hai to a certain person." Since I have agreed to stay in Yanzhou, I need domestic servants and slaves, and I hope that Cao Gong will let me choose among the Yellow Turbans, so that Guan Hai will be monitored by a certain person, as long as Cao Gong can trust me, he should believe that Guan Hai will not rebel again. ”

Cao Cao smiled "hehe": "Of course I believe in Hongfu you." So, you agreed to stay? What position do you want to hold? "Yes Xun understood what Cao Cao meant: What if you really stay and help me, and give Guan Hai to you? Can you still dig out of my Five Finger Mountain? If you just want to take these Yellow Turbans to run...... Hehe, it's important to study and study, what is the intention.

Shi Xun replied: "Xun is a dull talent, he only has lips and tongues, and he doesn't know anything about military affairs, how can he dare to enter the public scene?" "Lao Tzu won't go to war with you on the battlefield, how dangerous it is, I'd better stay in the rear-" In addition, he doesn't understand practice and doesn't show filial piety, how can he dare to compare with all the monarchs here? Cao Gong is like the sun, the princes are like stars and moons, and Xun is just the light of fireflies. One room is enough. ”

Cao Cao glanced at Shi Xun, and said in his heart that this kid is okay, although he is young, he is very good at being a man. Shi Xun's words just now, first he was hypocritically modest, and then he used the words "not to raise filial piety" Cao Cao: You are now the governor of a state and have the ability to recommend talents to the imperial court, so I will entrust you with my filial piety qualifications; After the last time, he also held a handful of people present, saying that I dare not be on a par with the monarchs - Yes Xun has a great favor to the Cao family, but the credit to Cao Cao's camp is not too big (Xu and Yan Hezong matter, after all, it has not been finalized after all), if you jump to the same level as these old people who have followed Cao Cao for several years, it is inevitable that people will not be convinced, and then Shixun himself will definitely be ostracized, and Cao Cao may not be secretly complained by his subordinates.

Cao Cao didn't know how to do it, if the ages of the two generations before and after Xun were combined, they would be older than him. When it comes to practical work ability, it is very ordinary in the previous life, and there are even more knives in this life, but when it comes to social experience, it must be more than the ordinary scholars who read dead books in the boring study. Besides, he has been thinking about related issues for a long time, and it is not a temporary idea, how can he not think about everything?

He said that "one record room is enough", and the so-called "record room" is equivalent to a secretary and a clerk. In fact, the record room is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, the three dukes and the general have a "record room order history", the rank of 100 stones, although there are not many of them, but compared to the subordinates of the assassin history, the gold content can be much higher. Of course, Xun doesn't want that kind of position, or he can't afford Cao Cao if he wants to, he means: I can do some paperwork under you so-so.

"Isn't that too aggrieved Hongfu?" Cao Cao persuaded him, and then approached and asked, "Why don't you temporarily assign the position to work, and Hongfu will help me make peace with Tao Gongzu, how about it?" ”

Yes Xun was shocked when he heard this, don't mind, I don't plan to go back!
