Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 570 Embarrassed in the way

   "Cao Mengde is leaving." Guo Jia shook the wine gourd and said with blurred eyes.

   Xun Yu was sitting on one side, holding a book in his hands. Hearing this, he slightly tilted his head and said, "Well, what's wrong?"

   "I want to go and have a look." Guo Jia said.

  Xun Yu put down the letter and said, "But Dongjun is not a good place."

  Yanzhou, the yellow scarves are very serious now. Regardless of the sequelae of the crusade against Dong Zhuo before, Yanzhou is the main force in the Suanzao coalition army, and the soldiers from the counties and counties who were transferred away gave the Yellow Turban bandits of the Qingzhou generation in Yanzhou a chance to breathe again.

Liu Dai's control over Yanzhou was weak, and at the same time, the battle with the former governor Qiao Mao finally reached an irreconcilable stage. Liu Dai killed Qiao Mao on the grounds that the military rations were unfavorable, but everyone knew what was going on Therefore, the local gentry in Yanzhou did not welcome and cooperate with Liu Dai very much. As a result, Liu Dai was often passive. Even the scope and area of ​​​​the Yellow Turban Bandit's activities were restricted due to various restrictions. learned that...

  Of course, after Qiao Mao's death, Liu Dai also appointed Wang Gong as the prefect of Dongjun. In addition, there is another Dong Zhuofeng, and now there is another Yuan Shaofeng.

  So Xun Yu said solemnly: "Although Cao Mengde is quite majestic, but after all, he is not born well...so, are you sure?"

  Xun Yu and Guo Jia have actually been in Jizhou for a while, and met Yuan Shao, but they didn't express anything, and of course Yuan Shao didn't express anything either.

Strictly speaking, there are already quite a few advisers around Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao not only balances these advisers, but also uses the competition among these advisers to plan and expand. Now he has done a very good job. There is no way like Yuan Shao is now, from a second-generation official, not only won the entire Jizhou in just one year, but also has his eyes on Youzhou and Yanzhou...

  Yuan Shao's strategic vision and attitude of swallowing the world are indeed very attractive.

   But what does Cao Cao have?

   Except for a few family brothers and some family soldiers, there is nothing.

  Guo Jia put down the wine gourd, and said: "Cao Mengde doesn't like Yuan Cheqi, and I happen to not like Yuan Cheqi very much, so let's take a look..."

   Xun Yu was silent and sighed slightly.

  Yuan Shao, as an example of the crown family in the world, naturally cannot condescend to do some small things, otherwise, if he condescends too much, he will naturally lose his original majesty and bearing. This is naturally absolutely unacceptable to Yuan Shao.

However, Guo Jia is extremely talented, and with high talent, it is inevitable that he will be extremely high-spirited. Naturally, he would not flatter Yuan Shao's feet just for a little salary. people like that.

   Naturally, Guo Jia received a cold reception.

   "Then how do you go?" Xun Yu asked.

  Guo Jia laughed a few times, then stood up suddenly, holding a wine gourd, and said in a drunken voice, "From now on, my surname is not Guo..."

  ×××××××××××××××

  Cao Cao looked the disheveled man up and down, and said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

   "A certain surname is Xi, and his name is Zhicai. He is a businessman." Xi Zhicai, with disheveled hair and a strong smell of alcohol, said lazily.

   "Xizhicai?" Cao Cao repeated in a murmur. In the current concept of the Han Dynasty, most of the two-character names mean a humble name, and he was a businessman. "Do you have characters?"

   "No words." Xi Zhicai replied.

  Cao Cao could not help but stare.

Wei Ji on the side also frowned, he didn't really care if there were words or not, but for him who was a bit of a clean freak, such a scruffy shape like Xi Zhicai just made him feel a little disgusted, so he couldn't help blurting out: "Why? Can there be no words?"

  No word is more problematic these days than two-letter names.

  characters are usually bestowed by elders, mostly related to names, and also have the meaning of expressing wishes, expressing blessings, etc. If there is no word, it means that there is either no teacher, or no family elders, and no matter which one it is, it means that Xizhi is a wild character...

  Xi Zhicai looked up to the sky and laughed, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Aspiration is higher than the sky, and life is thinner than paper. What's the use of ambition? It's better to have no ambition." Of course, this ambition is not the other, and of course everyone present understands it.

Wei Ji smiled slightly, and said: "Jia Gu's disciples, how can you say your ambitions?" A small businessman who appeared out of nowhere actually said that his ambitions are higher than the sky, and this special purpose is to tease me what?

  Xi Zhicai flicked his sleeves and said: "Tao Zhugong Zuoyue King will be brave enough to destroy Wu; Lu Xiangguo helped his son Chu Handan to sacrifice his daughter to win the first emperor; these two people have no ambitions?"

  Wei Ke choked for a moment.

  Cao Cao laughed, tied the siege for Wei Ke, and said: "Sure enough, you are a wonderful person, please sit down."

  Xi Zhicai cupped his hands and sat down obliquely, Cao Cao didn't care.

  Cao Cao asked: "I don't know...uh, Zhicai, what do you want to sell when you come here this time?" Originally, he wanted to call him more friendly, but there was no word, so he had to call him by his name.

   "It's just pen and ink." Xi Zhicai said.

  Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked, "How do you describe this...?"

  Xi Zhicai said lazily: "His hair is luxuriant, and the text is not alive."

  Cao Cao's eyes lit up for a moment, he leaned forward slightly, and then asked, "Then Mo... so what?"

Xi Zhicai stretched out his hand and rubbed it in his bosom, as if he was catching lice, or something like rubbing some kind of mud ball. Wei Jiao, who was watching from the side, frowned, and then said: "Mo Beisi Ran, Don't be careless."

  Cao Cao didn't mind Xi Zhicai's rude behavior at all, he clapped his hands happily and said, "That's wonderful!"

   Immediately Cao Cao said again: "I don't know if you can teach me about the disputes in Dongjun County today?"

   "Mountains stand upright, scenery travels only." Xi Zhicai said slowly.

  Cao Cao read it several times, and then said: "Cao Cao is stupid, I don't know what it means, sir, can you explain it in detail?"

  Xi Zhicai burst out laughing, scratched his hair, and said, "Cao Gongxiu is joking... If you really don't know, why did you send people to spread the word about Jinan?"

  Cao Cao laughed a few times, and did not refute. Instead, he stood up and solemnly bowed to Xi Zhicai, saying, "Mr. Cao is invited to take up the post of Dongjun, and I hope you don't want to refuse!"

  Xi Zhicai pondered for a while, then suddenly asked: "Do you have any wine?" Although he was talking about wine, he was actually talking about another thing...

  Cao Cao was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing suddenly, and said, "If the master can come, there must be good wine!"

   "So..." Xi Zhicai got up and bowed in front of Cao Cao, "Zhicai pays respects to Duke Cao!"

  Cao Cao hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, but he didn't notice that Wei Ke silently lowered his head behind him, hiding the cold light that came out of his eyes...

   Cao Cao not only escaped the fire of Chibi, but also escaped Guan Yu's sword, and finally entered Nanjun to rest.

   Everyone bought wine to celebrate their escape, and Cao Cao burst into tears.

   All counselors: "The prime minister fled in the tiger's den without fear. He laughed all the way, but now he is crying bitterly?"

   Cao said: "I cry for Guo Fengxiao's ear. Fengxiao is filial piety. Countries all over the world have lived for thousands of years. There is only one filial piety. How can a thousand or ten thousand other advisers be able to replace it!"

   All the counselors were silent and ashamed.
