Chapter 117 Each has his own calculations
Lu Bu is not a fool.
It's just that he has been wandering for too long, so he is too eager to find a place to stay.
In fact, from beginning to end, Lu Bu didn't have much ambition.
Sitting in Xuzhou, I hope to be able to obtain the title of Xuzhou Mu; Cooperating with Yuan Shu is to be recognized by the clan. Unfortunately, he was too strong. is so strong that even Cao Cao has concerns about him, so he can't fulfill his small wishes.
In fact, when your eight athletes can gallop across the country, who dares to completely rest assured of him?
Lu Bu looked at Liu Chuang, his eyes looked a little complicated.
He couldn't hear the meaning of Liu Chuang's words.
If Liu Chuang had an accident in Xuzhou, there was no doubt that the last person to top the cylinder would be Lu Bulu Fengxian.
"Guan Tinghou, please!"
Lu Bu's face was cloudy, and after a while, he suddenly turned sideways and made a gesture of please.
And Liu Chuang was not polite, took a step forward, and pulled Lu Bu's arm, "Wen Hou, please." ”
The two walked arm in arm, to the surprise of those who watched the excitement.
originally thought that when Lu Bu and Liu Chuang met, there would be a dragon fight. But now it seems that the two men are more likely to shake hands and make peace.
This also disappointed those who were ready to see the excitement, more or less.
In the restaurant, the young man in the brocade robe had a gloomy face.
"Ji Bi, I have to say goodbye in advance."
"Walk slowly."
The white-robed young man smiled slightly, watching the golden-robed young man leave, but he didn't care, and he didn't even get up to see him off.
The commotion on the long street has subsided, and as Liu Chuang and Lu Bu left, the onlookers also left in groups, and the Baimen Tower gradually returned to calm.
A patrol arrived from afar. Clean up the mess of the Dongyang firm.
From time to time, people brought out corpses from the house, and some good deeds hid aside to count them, and counted more than 20 dead bodies, and they couldn't help but turn pale.
"If you don't move, it's enough, and if you move like thunder."
The white-robed young man who was full of wine and food leaned against the railing, watching the patrolman put the corpses on the ox cart that pulled the corpses, and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
"Twenty-three people, Lao Ding's family, with six guys. All are dead. ”
A guy from the restaurant watched from the sidelines and said to himself: "This flying bear is a hundred times more ferocious than Wen Hou." ”
The white-robed young man turned his head to look at the guy, settled the bill, stood up and stretched.
"This one comes. I'm afraid Mr. Han Yu is going to have a headache! ”
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In the spring season, the temperature in Xiapi is very high, as if it has entered the scorching heat.
Chen Jue was dressed in a single coat, lying on his side on a couch chair, and a beautiful maid stood behind him, fanning Chen Jue to cool off.
Afterworld. Lying in bed seems to mean sleeping.
But in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, lying down was also a way of hospitality.
He was not lying on the bed, but on a mattress under him, and his body was reclining on it.
Generally speaking. If the elder or Shangguan treats guests in this way, it means that the guest is his confidant, so there is no need to be too particular.
in the house. There were also a few people sitting upright, with gloomy faces.
The brocade-robed young man was among them. There was a look of worry on his face.
"Han Yugong, this Liu Mengyan is also too arrogant.
When he came to Xiapi, he went on a killing spree, and he simply didn't take you seriously. If he hadn't been taught some lessons, wouldn't he have been even more blind in the future? ”
"Julu said well, since that's the case, why don't you ask Julu to come out and teach him a good lesson?"
The brocade-robed young man smiled coldly and spoke.
The person who spoke was named Zhou Kui, who was from Xiapi and was quite famous.
Hearing the brocade-robed young man speak, he suddenly sank his face, "Baojian, what do you mean by this?" ”
"What do you mean?"
The young man said: "You keep saying that you want to teach him a lesson, but you don't see it clearly, who is Liu Chuang?"
You say that he is Na Lu Bu, can you and I knead it? After that guy was the Marquis of Zhongling, he studied under Kang Chenggong, and he was the uncle of the Han Dynasty recognized by the Son of Heaven. With only these three identities, you and I are helpless against him. What's more, people said that they came for that interception. ”
The strategy of intercepting and killing Liu Chuang came from Zhou Kui's hand.
The young man glanced at him, and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes, "Compared to his background, he can't compare to this person; than the official position, he worships the Taishou of Qi County, the captain of Dongyi; than Yongli, he turned to Jianghuai and defeated Lu Bu; Compared with strength, he sits on the North Sea and has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command......
I really don't understand, why did you persuade Han Yugong to ambush Liu Chuang.
Although the Geyi bandits have some ways, it also depends on who they are dealing with...... The prestige that Liu Chuang has killed thousands of troops in Mali, how can the little Ge Yi bandits deal with? Are you going to teach him a lesson? I agree! It's better to go to him and fight and beat him up. ”
"I ......"
Zhou Kui's face was flushed, but he couldn't speak.
Seeing this, Chen Jue spoke: "Baojian, don't say it again.
The strategy of the giant road is also for the good of everyone, and I agreed to this matter before, and I can't complain about him. I wanted to test Liu Chuang's methods, but I didn't expect this guy to have no scruples and react so violently. To be honest, I was also angry just now. But when I think about it, I can't blame him. Isn't it possible that I am only allowed to calculate him, and not allow him to fight back? He is not Lu Bu, he also has this confidence. ”
Zhou Kui was surprised: "Han Yugong, is that it?" ”
Chen Qi smiled slightly, "Do you really want to go to that Liu Chuang to wrestle as Baojian said?" ”
"I ......"
"Okay, this matter is over, forget it.
Julu, it's not early, you should go back early. As if it hadn't happened, you and I don't take it too seriously. Young people, when the spring breeze is proud, they will always get a little carried away. Back then, I had some friendship with the Marquis of Zhongling, and speaking of which, I was the elder of Liu Chuang. Are you going to let one of my elders go over and reason with him? After all, you and I are at fault in this matter. ”
Chen Qi said it to this point, even if Zhou Kui was dissatisfied, it was difficult to say anything.
He got up to take his leave, and only the brocade-robed young man was left in the room.
"Han Yugong, why do you need to anger Liu Chuang?"
"Bao Jian. Draft. ”
As soon as Zhou Kui walked on his front foot, Chen Qi sat up on his back foot.
He motioned for the beautiful maid to go out, leaving only the young man in the brocade robe.
"Actually, it can't be angry, when Zhou Kui offered his plan, I also wanted to use this matter to test Liu Chuang.
I don't know that the Ge Yi bandit is not enough to make things happen? But I can test Liu Chuang's attitude on this trip, as far as I am concerned. Indeed, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. ”
The young man in the brocade robe was stunned when he heard this, and said softly: "Dare to ask Liu Chuang, how is it?" ”
"If the flying bear and the tiger join forces, it will be a problem for the country."
"Oh?"
"Liu Chuang has already emerged last year. But neither I nor anyone else paid much attention to him. I thought that a slave who betrayed his master could achieve what kind of climate? Who would have thought that this guy could be turned over, not only did he lose his reputation, but he was even more tired and jealous. Now Liu Chuang's identity has been confirmed, and Zheng Xuan has strong support. Its momentum is in its infancy, and it is by no means a match for you and me.
This person is very ambitious, judging from his actions when he came to Xiapi this time, it is obvious that he intends to establish himself in Xuzhou.
If this person has Xuzhou. It's not a blessing for you and me. At that time, the situation of your Xu family's dominance in Haixi may be difficult to maintain. However, he is young after all, and his methods are tough. I don't know the way to go straight and wrong. That's a good thing, it can give us a chance. ”
"Han Yu Gong means ......"
"I mean. Endure! ”
"Huh?"
"Let him run rampant, and see how long he can run rampant.
Baojian, you go to Guangling on my behalf, inform Yuanlong, and let him get ready.
Previously, I instigated Lu Bu to kill Han Yin, and Yuan Shu will inevitably retaliate. At that time, Lu Bu sent troops to meet the enemy, and when the troops of Xia Pi were empty, he welcomed Liu Xuande back. After Yuanlong and Xuande attacked Lu Bu, Lu Bu would be defeated. At that time, the overall situation will not change. ”
The young man in the brocade robe is named Xu Xuan, a native of Haixi.
After listening to Chen Qi, he couldn't help but nod his head again and again, expressing his approval.
"Then we ...... now"
"Wait and see."
Chen Qi smiled slightly, and said in a deep voice: "You and I will make it look like I was scared by Liu Chuang, and then let Lu Bu relax his vigilance."
As soon as Lu Bu died, Liu Chuang was unable to support himself. At that time, he can only retreat to the North Sea, and with that corner of the land, sooner or later he will become a prisoner of the stairs. ”
Xu Xuan couldn't help but praise: "The old man is really smart. ”
Chen Qi said with a smile: "It's very clever, but I've seen a lot and my heart is calm."
What scene hasn't the old man experienced, so Liu Chuang thinks that killing a few of my pawns can make me mess up? Hehe, he also underestimated me Chen Hanyu too much. But this time, we can't ruin Liu Chuang's life. When the time comes, let him go, so as not to cause trouble. ”
Liu Chuang's identity is too sensitive.
Even when Chen Qi was calculating him, he couldn't help but have a lot of worries.
After all, if you kill Liu Chuang, it will cause a lot of controversy...... How could this be careless for Chen Jue, who has always cherished his reputation?
"Boss, then I'll go."
"By the way, I want you to persuade Ji Bi to go to Liu Yuanjun, what did he say?"
When Xu Xuan heard this, he immediately smiled bitterly.
"I talked to Ji Bi about this, but Ji Bi didn't seem to be reluctant."
Chen Jue's white eyebrows frowned, and his face showed dissatisfaction.
Xu Xuan hurriedly said: "Han Yugong, in fact, I don't understand this matter.
Ji Bi's talent, you and I both know it, why let him go to Liu Yuanjun? Even if Liu Yuanjun has the strategy of hegemony, he is not the lord of Xuzhou after all. He can't have more than 10,000 soldiers now, and he won't be able to pass the pass, so why bother to befriend him? Ji Bi defected to him, I'm afraid he was a little wronged. ”
"What do you know, if Liu Yuanjun comes to Xuzhou in the future, he will have to cooperate with him.
If Ji Bi can gain a foothold under his account, you and I can also get more news...... Moreover, it was also expedient to let him defect to Liu Yuanjun. If Liu Yuanjun can sit firmly in Xuzhou, Ji Bi can be reused; If he can't sit still, he can also make plans for the future. ”
Xu Xuan smiled bitterly in his heart: The more you say this, I'm afraid the more he will not agree.
This is clearly to let Chen Jiao be the person who is two-faced and three-stabbed. With his temperament, how can he agree?
It's just that he can't say it well, so he can only say softly: "Han Yugong, I'll go to him and persuade Ji Bi again, how about it?" ”
"It's good!"
Chen Qi spoke, wanting to stand up.
This is completely different from the situation when Zhou Kui said goodbye just now.
When Zhou Kui left. Chen Qi didn't move; But now, he was ready to get up and send Xu Xuan away.
"Master, there is a person outside the door, who calls himself Yingchuan Liu Chuang, who came to visit the boss?"
Chen Qi and Xu Xuan were stunned when they heard this.
Liu Chuang came to visit?
Chen Jue's white eyebrows frowned, and he immediately fell on the couch again, and ordered someone to get a thin quilt. Then he said in a deep voice: "Just say that I am not feeling well, so I will meet guests in the study." ”
"Boss, you're ......"
"Baojian, you leave through the side door in a moment.
This flying bear reacted quickly, and actually wanted to come to me to find out the truth. You just have to do what you want. I'll hold this flying bear steady. ”
Xu Xuan hurriedly nodded in agreement and hurriedly walked out of the room.
His own retainers cleaned up the furnishings in the house and made it look like Chen Qi was recuperating here.
Chen Jue leaned on the mattress and lay on the couch on his side.
The two old eyes were dizzy, and they didn't have the shrewdness they had just now.
Outside the house, there was the sound of footsteps, and after a while. A majestic young man appeared at the door of the study.
"Yingchuan Liu Chuang, on the order of Kang Chenggong, came to visit the boss."
The young man bowed. But the majestic body still gives people a strong sense of oppression.
Don't look at him bowing down, but Chen Jue has a feeling that the mountain is falling towards him.
His heart couldn't help but move, he knew. Liu Chuang came to demonstrate to him.
So, although the heart was full of anger. But there was no change on his face, but it gave people a feeling of twilight of an old dragon.
"Liu Dongyi, please get up quickly, the old man is unwell and can't get up, please forgive me."
"Boss, what's going on?"
"Two days ago, I occasionally felt a cold, I thought it was no big deal, how do you know...... This person is really old, and once he is old, he has many problems.
Sit down, sit down, come and put water for Liu Dongyi. ”
A retainer sent honey water, and after Liu Chuang thanked him, he sat down on the side.
"Boss, I came to Xiapi this time, before leaving, Kang Chenggong repeatedly told me to come to visit the boss.
It's just that after arriving yesterday, I was dragged by Wen Hou to eat and drink, and I haven't been empty until now. In addition, I heard that the Dongyang business is an industry under the name of the boss? I didn't know that Dongyang Business was related to the boss, and I was angry yesterday...... Today, I am here to make amends to the boss. ”
Chen Qi coughed violently and waved his hand again and again.
Liu Dongyi must not say this, this is not Liu Dongyi's fault, but the people below make their own opinions.
I only heard the news yesterday, and I didn't expect them to be so bold...... Liu Dongyi did the right thing, and he also cleaned up the portal for the old man. Otherwise, the old man really didn't know that these dogs were so bold. Colluding with bandits is simply an unforgivable crime.
If Liu Dongyi doesn't come, I'm also going to Wangcheng to ask for ......."
Looking at Chen Jue's breathless appearance, Liu Chuang also showed a look of unbearability.
He sat aside and apologized to Chen Jue again and again.
After talking for a while, Chen Jue seemed to be sleepy, so he didn't dare to stay any longer, so he got up and said goodbye.
Seeing Liu Chuang away, Chen Qi immediately turned over and sat up.
He frowned, his face showed a gloomy color, and after a while, he said in a deep voice: "Someone! ”
"Whoa!"
Outside the door, a relative ran in and crawled on the ground.
Chen Qi gritted his teeth and said: "Send someone to Guangling immediately, get to know Yuan Long, and say that I have made up my mind!" ”
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
After coming out of Chen Qi's house, Liu Chuang boarded the carriage.
In the carriage, there were two people sitting, one was Zhuge Liang, and the other was wearing a white robe, looking personable and magnificent.
If Xu Xuan was here, he would definitely be surprised.
Because this white-robed young man was Chen Jiao who he was going to persuade before.
"Childe, how's it going?"
"Lao Er pretended to be dead, as if his life was short."
When Chen Jiao heard this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, "If Han Yugong hears your words, he can't really vomit three liters of blood." ”
"That's just right, so I don't have to bother with it."
"Brother Meng Yan, what does Chen Hanyu say?"
Zhuge Liang couldn't help but ask, he was full of interest and seemed to be quite interested.
Liu Chuang smiled: "What else can I say, it's nothing more than pretending to be dead...... Hmph, the more he hides it like this, the more it shows that he has a ghost in his heart. The more he behaved generously, the more he proved what Ji Bi said. This old man, I'm afraid he has already made a plan. ”
"Then Wenhou's ......"
Liu Chuang rubbed his temples and said with a wry smile: "Wen Hou still seems to be hesitating. ”
Chen Jiao frowned, "With such courage, I really don't know how to deserve the name of the tiger." ”
"Ji Bi, you don't understand!"
"Oh?"
Liu Chuang knocked on the wall of the carriage, and the carriage drove slowly.
The person who drove the car was Zhou Cang.
Around the carriage, there is also a dry flying bear guard following, so there is no need to worry about the partition wall having ears.
Liu Chuang sighed, "Actually, I can understand Wen Hou's mood.
He values Xuzhou too much...... Or rather, he wanted to stabilize so much that he lost his bearings. I think that at the beginning, when I crossed the Huaishui from Jiangdong and was about to go to Yingchuan, I also suffered from gains and losses. Because I have been wandering for too long, I am bored, so I especially want to try my best to stabilize dìng.
Lu Bu started in Bingzhou, and it can be said that his footprints are all over Jiangbei.
He voted for Ding Yuan, returned to Dong Zhuo, assisted Yuan Shao, and fought for Yanzhou, all he did was a place to stay...... When he first came to Xuzhou, he did not hesitate to live in Pei County, and this kind of thinking has been very obvious. It was precisely because he cared too much about Xiapi that he was taken by Chen Qi's father and son. ”
Chen Jiao was stunned and nodded slightly.
He also wandered around, from Xuzhou to Jiangdong, and from Jiangdong back to Xuzhou......
Lu Bu amazed the world, and his courage was unparalleled.
It's a pity that his luck is not as good as Liu Chuang, and he got a place to settle down so quickly. What's more, behind Liu Chuang, there are too many people secretly assisting. If it weren't for that, I'm afraid Liu Chuang would not have been able to get the position of captain of Dongyi. And what about Lu Bu? Indeed, they are as frightened as a lost dog.
"In this way, I'm afraid Chen Jue won't be able to delay it for too long."
Chen Jiao pondered for a moment and said softly: "If the son can't let Lu Bu make up his mind, I'm afraid sooner or later he will be calculated by Chen Jue." ”
Chen Jue, an old man, is indeed very capable.
If it weren't for Zheng Xuan and Lu Zhu's reminders three times and twice, Liu Chuang might really be deceived by Chen Jue.
"If Wen Hou can't make up his mind, then only I will help him with this idea."
"Childe means ......"
Liu Chuang nodded slightly, with a cold smile on his face.
Chen Jiao came to the post station to find him last night, which made Liu Chuang feel unusual.
He was still thinking about how to get in touch with Chen Jiao, but now it's good that Chen Jiao sent it to the door by himself, which saved him a lot of trouble.
Chen Jiao said last night: If Chen Qi is angry, it means that his plan is undecided.
If he forbears and retreats, he will have a plan.
This is also the main reason why Liu Chuang came to visit Chen Jue today. Looking at it like this, this old man is probably ready......
The carriage stopped at the gate of the post station, and as soon as Liu Chuang got off the car, he saw a person walking quickly.
"Childe, Wenhou is invited!"
