Chapter 147: Initial Meeting (4)

Yuan Shao was stunned when he heard this, and immediately laughed.

"I also went to congratulate him, but unfortunately I couldn't get out.

Since Yuan Hao has this Yaxing, listen to me go south to Beihai Kingdom, and congratulate Youruo for me by the way. By the way, give Meng Yan some horses. In this matter, please ask Yuan Hao to bother you...... Xianfu, are you interested in going to Beihai? You're the same age as Meng Yan, why don't you move around more? ā€

Yuan Shang is very arrogant, and there are not many people who are busy on the base, so they can enter his eyes.

It is rare that Liu Chuang and Yuan Shang have a good relationship, and Yuan Shao also wants to let Yuan Shang and Liu Chuang move around more.

This also made Guo Tu's face even more ugly, and his mouth opened, but he didn't know what kind of reason to use to stop such a thing.

You must know that Yuan Shao's last sentence was actually sarcastic about him.

Didn't you Guo Tu say that Liu Chuang was greedy for good horses? I'll give him some more...... You are a dignified Hebei celebrity, this bearing is really bad.

Guo Tu was bitter in his heart!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"Yuan Hao, why do you suddenly want to go to Beihai Kingdom?"

Coming out of the General's Mansion, Tian Feng was just about to get into the car, but he heard someone calling him behind him.

Turning his head to look, he was depressed.

Tian Feng and Fu Zhu are fellow villagers, and they are both Julu people.

The two are quite different in age, but they are friends who have forgotten their years.

Both of them served under Han Fu, and later returned to Yuan Shao together. And the political views of the two are surprisingly similar, so they often communicate together.

As early as the second year of the first peace, Yuan Shao was built in the north of the Hengda River. The land of the four states, the talents of the heroes, the millions of people, welcome the big in Xijing, and command the world. In the second year of Xingping, that is, in 195 AD, the Han Emperor fled from Guanzhong and passed through Hedong.

Frustrated, let Yuan Shao welcome the Han Emperor. Then the capital of Yecheng, the Son of Heaven ordered the princes.

It can be said that if Yuan Shao had obeyed the frustrated Jian Yiyi at that time, then there would have been nothing to do with Cao Cao on the base.

Pity. was opposed by Chun Yuqiong and others, Yuan Shao finally did not listen to the advice of Fu Zhu, and cheapened Cao Cao for nothing, so that he could get the name of righteousness.

At that time, Tian Feng strongly advocated that Yuan Shao obey the idea of frustration, and even quarreled with Chun Yuqiong about this.

The relationship between the two is extremely close, so it is clear that it is after frustration. Tian Feng invited Fu Zhi to get into the carriage, and the two talked in the carriage.

"I want to go to Beihai to see who this Liu Chuang is."

"Oh?"

Tian Feng took a deep breath and said softly, "I just said it." It is not a lie to have an old relationship with the Marquis of Zhongling.

Don't forget, I wanted to serve under the Marquis of Chuzhongling when he was the Imperial Doctor. It's just that acquaintance is acquainted. But it's far from it, I don't think the Marquis of Zhongling may be able to remember me as a little person. However, when the Marquis of Zhongling was sparse, 'the people took food as the sky'. I did write a chapter with the Marquis of Zhongling, in which I wrote down some of my views in detail, but unfortunately there was no reply.

Now the lord is in the land of the four states, there are many soldiers and generals, and there is plenty of grain and grass.

But in my heart, I always hope to be able to implement the ideas that I wrote in the Song Shu with the Marquis of Zhongling, but I know that it is difficult.

So I want to go to Beihai to see how Liu Chuang makes 'food for the people'. At the same time......"

Frustrated and raised his eyebrows, "...... at the same time"

"At the same time, I want to know how this Liu Chuang is."

In his words, there was a touch of murderous intent.

Tian Feng glanced at him and smiled slightly, "I believe that Gonghe also has this kind of thought." ā€

Fu Zhu couldn't help but laugh, "If Liu Chuang is not a great loyalty, he will be a great traitor...... You see that he is in Qi County, it can be said that he turned his hands into clouds and covered his hands into rain, and the eldest prince and the third prince were almost played by him. If you don't go, Yuanhao, then I will definitely ask the lord to go to Beihai Kingdom. ā€

Tian Feng smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, I'll be careful to investigate." ā€

Frustrated, laughed!

At the beginning of December of the second year of Jian'an, Cao Cao returned from Nanyang.

This battle was not completed, which also made Cao Cao feel very regretful.

I didn't expect this embroidery to be so difficult. Although Cao Cao defeated him twice, he never managed to hurt his muscles and bones, which caused him a lot of headaches.

At this time, news came from Xu Du that Tian Kai had died in battle, and Yuan Tan had taken Qingzhou.

Cao Cao knew that he had to return to Xudu to stabilize the situation, otherwise, he was afraid that it would cause turmoil in Yuzhou.

In addition, the New Year is approaching, and the soldiers have no intention of fighting again. Therefore, Cao Cao ordered Cao Hong to garrison Wuyin, and he personally led the army to return to Xudu......

"This, is it Shu Huang?"

Cao Cao scooped a spoonful of sorghum rice with a spoon and chewed it twice in his mouth, feeling that the taste was far less sweet than corn.

Guo Jia also took a sip, put down the spoon and said: "Although the taste of this millet is not as good as corn, it can make people full, and it is not too bad." ā€

"This thing, it's really very high-yielding?"

"As far as I know, Liu Chuang promoted this crop in Beihai Country, and harvested 600,000 Hu in just one county...... Of course, this is related to the vast land in the Beihai region, but compared with the output of only 1.3 million Hu in Yanzhou, the output of this Shu millet is indeed amazing.

I asked the locals that Shu millet is in Beihai country, and the yield per mu is nearly three or four hundred catties.

If, I mean if...... If the lord can promote it in Yuzhou, it will inevitably alleviate the food crisis in Yuzhou and stabilize grain prices, which is a great thing. ā€

"What do you think?"

Xun Yu finished eating a small bowl of sorghum, picked up a silk towel and wiped the corners of his mouth, "If Shu millet is really so high-yielding, it can indeed alleviate the grain shortage in Yuzhou." ā€

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, although Yuzhou experienced repeated wars, its population was still the largest among all states.

According to the census in the Zhongping period, the population of Yuzhou reached 7.1 million, which can be said to be the most populous place except for Yizhou. But it is precisely because of the repeated wars that many lands are barren. With such heavy population pressure, even if Yanzhou can get millions of grains every year, it is still a little nervous for Yuzhou. Therefore, the grain price in Yuzhou is also the highest among all states.

Xun Yu said and glanced at Guo Jia.

"But ......"

"But how?"

Xun Yu smiled bitterly. "Don't Fengxiao know the truth that 'oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and those born in Huaibei are oranges'?"

"You mean ......"

"The yield of millet may indeed be amazing.

But you have to take into account one problem, that is, the environment of Beihai is very different from that of Yuzhou.

Perhaps, Shu millet can obtain an amazing yield in Beihai country, but if it is placed in Yuzhou, it is likely to be extinct.

Such a crop, Liu Chuang actually sent it. Is it really well-intentioned?

I agree to promote Shu millet but not to promote it on a large scale all at once. Although the yield of grain and corn is far less than that of millet and millet, you must know that this thing has been cultivated for many years after all, and everyone is very familiar with it. All of a sudden, it was replaced by Shu millet. Not to mention that the people will resist out of fear, if there is an accident, I am afraid that the entire Yuzhou will face the danger of starvation......"

Guo Jia's eyes narrowed, he raised his head and said, "Ruo, what do you mean...... Then Liu Chuang is calculating me? ā€

"Not necessarily."

Xun Yu smiled: "Liu Chuang may not really want to calculate anyone, but he definitely knows." This orange and orange truth.

Such a high-yield crop, if it is replaced by someone else, it will inevitably be strictly guarded. But he took the initiative to send it, indicating that he knew. This kind of thing, it is impossible to prevent the root. Perhaps he also wants to promote this crop on a large scale, but the risks will be borne by the lord. ā€

Guo Jia's face. Suddenly it became difficult to see.

"What does that mean is promotion. Or not promoted? ā€

Xun Yu thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Promotion, but by no means now." ā€

"Oh?"

"My advice is to find a few places to cultivate first, and the rest of the area is still dominated by grains and corn...... In this way, even if the cultivation fails, it will not affect the overall situation. Once the trial is successful, laws can be formulated and comprehensively promoted.

However, I reckon it will take a process.

Maybe three years or two, maybe five or six years before a conclusion is reached. But until the trial is successful, I don't build yƬ for full promotion. ā€

Cao Cao aside, nodding again and again.

"If you say it, it's the safest."

After speaking, he ate two large mouthfuls of sorghum rice, and suddenly smiled: "If you eat it slowly, this Shu millet doesn't seem to be so unpalatable." ā€

Guo Jia also knew that Xun Yu was not targeting him.

It's just that since that quarrel with Xun Yu, Guo Jia has clearly felt that there is no longer the feeling of intimacy between Xun Yu and him in the early years. In other words, there has been a gap between the two, and they can't keep their hearts and minds like before. Guo Jia was speechless, and after eating a bite of sorghum rice, he lost his appetite.

When Cao Cao saw this, he also sighed in his heart.

He thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Fengxiao, you are going to Beihai Kingdom, what do you think Liu Chuang does?" ā€

"This person ......"

Guo Jia thought about it, but shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"I didn't expect that as soon as he came back, he would be aware of my deposit.

Although he sent two young children to test me, I could feel that he had become suspicious of me. So I left immediately, and I heard Ji Yu say that as soon as I left with my front foot, Liu Chuang led someone into the post house to find me with my back foot. If I had hesitated at that time, I would have been poisoned by them. ā€

"This son is quite vigilant."

"I stayed in Gaomi for five days and learned a few things in general.

Lord, Liu Chuang is by no means a busy person, he has great ambitions, judging from what he did in Beihai Country and the implementation of papermaking and compilation, this person is not small. If you are born 10 years early...... Lord, this person will definitely become the henchman of the lord. ā€

"This is not Meng Yan's fault, he just wanted to go home, but he had to leave his hometown."

Xun Yu suddenly spoke on the side, which made Cao Cao feel embarrassed.

I think that at the beginning, it was he who sent troops to conquer Liu Chuang, which caused today's situation.

Guo Jia sneered: "If you know that he will return to his ancestors and recognize his ancestors, will he be honest?" ā€

"I don't know if Meng Yan will be honest, but I at least know that he will have many concerns."

"Concern does not mean that he has no ambition."

"Ambition is not unavoidable...... Just look at how to use it.

Is it true that if a sword can kill, it is not a sword? Feng Xiao's words are interesting, he is ambitious, but after all, he is a child, how ambitious can he be? You have been working hard against Meng Yan, and in the end, I am afraid that you will add a strong opponent to Sikong Ping. ā€

"I know that Liu Chuang is a man-eating tiger, and if you have to keep it by your side, sooner or later you will become a disaster."

"Whether it's a man-eating tiger or not, you and I don't know.

And I know now that even if he is not a man-eating tiger, if you are aggressive, you will make him a man-eating tiger......"

When Cao Cao saw this situation, he suddenly felt that his head was as big as a fight.

The smell of gunpowder in Xun Yu and Guo Jia's words became stronger and stronger, making him secretly complain.

"If, Feng Xiao...... Don't argue with each other anymore. Cao Cao sighed, and said with some self-reproach: "In this matter, I can't complain about filial piety, but I really listened to one-sided words, so that it led to the current situation." If, I know that you have always been dissatisfied with my hostility towards Liu Mengyan, but since I have turned him into a fierce tiger, it is useless to regret it, and only by killing the tiger can I save my life, so I have to do it as a last resort. ā€

Cao Cao's words can be said to put his posture very low.

Xun Yu's mouth opened, and finally sat down.

Cao Cao's words have already shown his determination: Since I have turned Liu Chuang into a tiger, I will not regret it.

He has become a man-eating tiger, and I have to kill him, or he will eat me sooner or later...... I can't sit back and die.

"In that case, I will not go into details.

It's not Sikong's fault that he wants to kill the tiger, but he doesn't ask me for advice...... Anyway, the Marquis of Zhongling had a good relationship with my family back then. ā€

"If so, I won't embarrass you."

Xun Yu got up to say goodbye, and Cao Cao looked ugly.

Guo Jia said softly: "Sikong, please don't blame Ruo, the Marquis of Zhongling and the Xun family, after all, they have had a friendship for many years, not to mention Youruo's niece, who is about to marry Liu Chuang." If he really dealt with Liu Mengyan, it would indeed be a difficult thing for him. But otherwise, if you are loyal to Sikong......"

Cao Cao waved his hand, "Feng Xiaodon't say it again, I don't know how difficult it is."

It's only because I listened to Liu Xuande's family at the beginning, so that I forced Liu Chuang away, which made things become the current situation. However, as I just said, I will do it, and I will not regret it. It's just that the next thing is to bother with filial piety. ā€

When Guo Jia heard this, he hurriedly got up: "Don't worry, my lord, Jia has been arranged."

Everything is in place now, it's just time to ...... However, before that, the lord still has to do his best to solve Zhang Xiu's henchmanship. ā€

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly.

"Feng Xiao doesn't say it, I know it.

By the way, you just said that Liu Chuang wants to get married? ā€

"Exactly."

Cao Cao stood up, and after wandering around the room for a while, he suddenly smiled and said, "No matter what, he Liu Chuang is also a royal nobleman, and he is even more famous." I think that at the beginning, I also had to be taken care of by the Marquis of Zhongling, and now that he is married, then I have to express my heart. ā€

"The Lord means ......"

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia with a smile on his face.

"Didn't Feng Xiao say that he had not been able to contact Liu Chuang before?

I don't know if Feng Xiao has the guts, take another trip to Beihai, and test what kind of character this Liu Mengyan is? ā€

When Guo Jia heard this, he was startled at first, and then a strange smile appeared on his face.

He thought about it, then nodded and said: "What the lord said is very true, Jia Yizheng has this intention, and he has a face-to-face confrontation with that Liu Mengyan." ā€

"In this case, please ask Fengxiao to accompany Xiu Ruo and go to Beihai Country."
