Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 475 Celebration Banquet (4100)

"General Wu, I sincerely want to join you..."

Seeing that Wu Liang and the others didn't speak, Chamu thought they didn't care about his yin and yang eyes, so he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, and hurriedly said again.

"There are some things I must tell you clearly in advance."

Wu Liang finally said seriously, "We are not exorcists, and what we do is not glorious, and we often have to go into dangerous situations and die, and there may not even be a body collector after death. In addition, once you join us, It is no longer that you can quit if you want to, even so, do you still insist on joining us?"

Prince Chamu was taken aback, and subconsciously asked: "May I ask, what exactly do you do?"

"If you join us, you will naturally know; and if you know what we do, you must join us. Do you still want to know?"

Wu Liang's gaze gradually became sharper, further exerting psychological pressure on Prince Chamu.

"..."

Prince Chamu was obviously shocked by Wu Liang's words, fell into hesitation, and even swallowed unconsciously.

After all, this guy was born with a golden spoon in his mouth. Although he may have suffered some grievances and isolation, he is a prince who is protected by the royal family after all. He has experienced too few things and suffered setbacks, and he has basically never encountered such There was no choice of retreat, so when faced with the multiple-choice questions given by Wu Liang, he immediately lost his mind.

After all, Wu Liang hasn't told him anything yet, he's just opening a blind box, and it's still a blind box that may affect his future life.

"If you can't make up your mind, you can be your hostage obediently. As far as I know, Shanshan should be the first small country in the Western Regions to take the initiative to surrender to Cao Shijun. This is of great significance to Shijun, so he will definitely Treating you with great courtesy, you will live a more comfortable life here than in Shanshan, this is also a very good choice."

Wu Liang smiled again, and said unhurriedly, "As for your yin and yang eyes, I just pretend that I've never heard of them, and you'd better pretend that you don't have such a thing, and keep this secret forever in your heart from now on. Be an ordinary person, otherwise the situation you encountered in Jiani City may happen again here, and you should be more aware of this than me."

After saying this, Wu Liang didn't give Prince Chamu any more time to think about it, he turned his head and waved at the Huan army, and said calmly, "You too, don't spread the word about it, let's go."

"?"

Everyone was a little stunned.

Chamu's yin and yang eyes are indeed useless to ordinary people, but they are very useful to them. Is General Wu planning to let him go so easily?

And isn't General Wu usually good at fooling around?
How could he be so honest in the face of Prince Chamu who came to his door, not only explaining the benefits and benefits of joining them, but also teaching him to make a choice carefully?

But how do they know.

Wu Liang also has his own criteria for selecting people, especially the backbone of the Huan army who will follow him into the tomb. Different people have different selection criteria.

Yang Wanli is a typical example, because he was a spy under Lu Bu's command before, so although Wu Liang turned him into one of his own through coercion and lure, in fact, Wu Liang never allowed him to go to the tomb with him for a long time. During that time, Wu Liang had been examining his xinxing.

But Bai Jingjing was different. As a descendant of the tomb keeper, especially after being close enough to him, Wu Liang knew her very well, so he could bring her into the tomb with confidence.

As for Dian Wei, Yu Ji and Zhuge Liang.

These three people are a little different. They are all famous people in history. Even if they have not been in contact with each other before, Wu Liang knows them well, and he has enough understanding of their temperament. There is no need to investigate them. It's over.

And now Prince Chamu.

He has never been recorded in the history that Wu Liang knows, so it is necessary to consider it carefully, otherwise, even if Yin Yang eyes are very useful for the Huan army, it is human-made, if some of his qualities are not up to standard, It is still possible to lose the chain at the most critical moment and become a reminder for him and everyone in the Huan army.

However, Prince Chamu's hesitation at this moment made Wu Liang feel relieved. This was the reaction a normal person should have. At least it showed that this guy had no other purpose hidden in his heart.

And if Prince Chamu still chooses to join the Huren army after the words have reached this point, it can be seen that he is determined and tenacious, and he can indeed try it out.

Talk the other way around.

If Prince Chamu chose to give up at this time, Wu Liang would not feel sorry.

If he doesn't have this kind of determination and tenacity, and if he is still allowed to join the Huren Army, he will always be a hidden danger. He may not always be willing to retreat when encountering danger, and may even die in order to survive. It is better not to have companions in dangerous situations.

at this time.

"Wait a moment!"

Prince Chamu suddenly caught up with Wu Liang. At this moment, there was no hesitation in his eyes. Instead, there was a touch of determination. He only heard him say, "I still want to join you. If I want to be an ordinary person safely, I wouldn’t follow you all the way here, it’s the same in Jiani City, since I’m here, I’ve already made my choice.”

……

Two days later.

The Tuan army successfully entered Chenliu County.

Wu Liang's family members are all well, not only Cheng Yu and Wang Qing, prefects of Chenliu, are taking care of his family members, but even the Zhu family is extremely enthusiastic in helping them, much better than treating their own family members.

There is no other reason.

Do you still remember the tricks Wu Liang gave Zhu Lu before leaving Chen Liu this time?

Less than two months after Wu Liang left, there was indeed a terrible locust plague. Zhu Xun, the head of the Zhu family, had seen the contents of the plan, and was a little suspicious at that time, thinking that Wu Liang had calculated that there would be an imminent locust plague?

As soon as the locust plague came, Zhu Xun was completely overwhelmed by Wu Liang's ingenious calculation.

Originally, people in this era believed that the locust plague was a punishment from the heavens, and the locusts were the messengers of the heavens. As a result, they were very passive in the face of the locust plague, and few people actively resisted the disaster.

But this time, Zhu Xun, who was impressed by Wu Liang, was very caring. As the most powerful and prestigious family head in Chenliu County, under his call, coupled with some coercion and temptation, he forced Wu The "fire trapping method" and "using locusts to change millet method" written in the tricks Liang left to Zhu Lu were implemented.

have to say.

That is to say, Zhu Xun, the Patriarch of the Zhu family, will end up in person. If this matter is handled solely by Zhu Lu, it is very likely that it will not be implemented at all. In the end, there is still no way to control the plague of locusts.

Of course, Cheng Yu also played a role in promoting this.

then.

After this locust plague, Chenliu County has become the area with the least loss in Boss Cao's territory.

After Boss Cao returned to the imperial court a few days ago, it happened to be the harvest season. After seeing the situation in other counties in Yanzhou, and seeing the harvest in Chenliu County, after knowing the whole story, he immediately set Chenliu County as a model.

Not only that, Boss Cao also directly named Zhu Lu as "Tenant Farmer General" and was responsible for supervising the farming affairs of the entire Yanzhou.

This is the second "general" established by Boss Cao since he took power. Such an honor flatters the entire Zhu family, and the jurisdiction has changed from a county to a state. Naturally, the interests and power in it are not the same.

At this moment.

Zhu Xun finally completely believed in evil.

His stupid son is really a stupid man with a stupid blessing, to meet such a noble person as Wu Liang, this is not only a blessing for Zhu Lu alone, but also a blessing for the entire Zhu family.

So Zhu Xun immediately sent someone to deliver a big gift to Wu Liang's mansion.

At the same time, they also sent slaves to inquire about the affairs of Wu Liang's mansion at all times. Once they found out that Wu's mansion had any needs, they didn't need to report to help settle it first.

But a few days ago, there was an unsightly scholar from the noble family who tried to tease the little beauty who went out to buy cloth in Wu's mansion.

As a result, Chen Jinshui and others who accompanied him to carry the goods had not yet responded.

Then a group of thugs ran out from nowhere, held down the scholar and beat them up, and directly broke both legs, and insisted on asking which family the scholar was from, hooting and lifting them up Went to the door to inquire about the crime.

This scene stunned Chen Jinshui and others. When did the world become so beautiful, and everyone dared to shout when they saw injustice?

Later, after inquiring, I found out that they were all from the Zhu family. No wonder even the scholars of the noble family did not take them seriously.

And Zhu Xun's idea is also very real.

He had to create a good living environment for Wu Liang, so that Wu Liang could live comfortably in Chen, otherwise, if Wu Liang moved to live in another place one day, if he became someone else's nobleman , wouldn't it be cheaper for others?

These things are preface.

Besides, when Wu Liang returned to the mansion safely, he was naturally so happy that his little beauties and old subordinates, especially those little beauties, all burst into tears of joy.

After all, he had been out for a really long time this time, and it took half a year to go back and forth, directly from the end of spring to autumn.

The beauties look forward to it day and night, and they are afraid that something will happen to Wu Liang, and it will be very difficult.

Of course, they were not the only ones looking forward to Wu Liang's safe return.

This is not.

Less than an hour after Wu Liang returned to the mansion, several guests were welcomed one after another.

Before the buttocks were warm, Wang Qing and Zhu Lu had already arrived, and the two of them rushed to give Wu Liang a clean slate with big bags and small gifts.

It's a pity that it's not easy for Wu Haohao to go home. He just wanted to have a good rest for a few days, and he didn't have any thoughts of messing around with them, so he didn't leave them to sit at home, and sent them back first for any reason. up.

As a result, the two had just left not long ago.

Cheng Yu, the prefect of Chenliu, came again.

As soon as he entered the door, Cheng Yu looked Wu Liang up and down, and after finding that he was intact, he said in a slightly complaining tone: "General Wu, you still have the nerve to come back? You don't know, since the envoy Mr. Wang returned to Yecheng, Every morning, noon and evening, three batches of flying slaves will fly to this old man, asking every word about your return date. I am afraid that you are the only person in the world who can teach Shi Jun to miss you so much. If you don’t come back again, I’m afraid The envoy will personally come to Chenliu and wait for you."

"Cheng Taishou, before I left, didn't I inform you that I also went to Feinu for the envoy? You should all know that I am going on a long trip this time."

Wu Liang said with a haha, and then asked a little strangely, "Do you know why Shijun is so anxious for my return? But what else do you want me to do?"

"How can you figure out your old mind?"

Cheng Yu smiled, blinking his old eyes and said pointedly, "However, Your Majesty's great victory in this expedition to the west and the Northern Expedition to Qingzhou along the way are also a success story, not to mention that it's already autumn, and your Majesty is gradually truce and waiting for the winter. I really can't think of something that the envoy needs you to do urgently, maybe... the envoy is so anxious to find you, because he is afraid of losing such a fast-paced son-in-law as you, and is anxious to find you to go to the bridal chamber with the daughter-in-law?"

This old guy actually made a dirty joke, and it was Boss Cao's eldest daughter who made fun of it, so he was also fat.

But he also understands what he means.

Because he was the first person to know the true responsibilities of the Huan army, so even if Yanzhou was plagued by locusts a few days ago, Boss Cao has not been short of food recently, so there should be little need for the Huan army to rush "Tao Gui" "Get it done.

"Cheng Taishou's words are level. When I meet the envoy, I will definitely convey it to him verbatim."

Wu Liang looked at him disdainfully.

"Don't, don't, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have teased General Wu. I beg General Wu to spare me."

Cheng Yu repeatedly admitted his mistakes, but he also knew that Wu Liang was joking with him, and he still had a playful smile on his face.

"Then just store these words with me temporarily, but the storage fee..."

Wu Liang smiled.

"From now on, this old man owes General Wu another [-] catties of gold. How about returning it together with the ten catties of gold he owed before when I get rich?"

Cheng Yu said proactively.

"It's so fun? I have to suspect that Cheng Taishou has already started to break the cans and cans. Anyway, I haven't made it, so naturally I'm not afraid of owed more, right?"

Wu Liang asked very alertly.

"General Wu doesn't know something. Even the prefect doesn't have much money these days. Speaking of money..."

Cheng Yu smiled wryly, but at this point, he suddenly lowered his voice, "General Wu, you should have gained a lot from this expedition, right?"

"Okay."

Wu Liang nodded and did not elaborate with him.

"That's fine, that's fine."

Cheng Yu said solemnly, "When you entered the city, the old man used the flying slave to send the news of your return to the envoy, and it would not take long for the envoy's reply to be sent back. If the old man's prediction is correct, the envoy should We will call you and me, as well as Zhu Lu, who was recently promoted to Diannong Zhonglang, to Juancheng to attend the celebration banquet."

"and then?"

Wu Liang heard something in Cheng Yu's words.

"Xun Lingjun sent a letter to me saying that the envoy intends to award meritorious generals at this celebration banquet."

Cheng Yu lowered his voice again, and said with a frown, "And Lu Fengxian and his generals tied up the traitors Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao, and beheaded the envoy's father-killing enemy Tao Qian with his own hands. Having recognized the envoy as a righteous father, this time Lu Fengxian and his generals will probably focus on being the best at the celebration banquet..."
