Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao

Chapter 69 Marching Director
  "My lord, the gifts here have been given out. I'm going to take a walk at Brother Zhuhu's place."

Cao Cao was stunned, is this bastard so open-minded? You just gave a big gift and you ran away without even eating?

"What's your name, lord? Call me father-in-law! You'll have dinner at my place at noon. It won't be too late to leave after dinner."

Yang Biao coughed twice and stood there feeling a little embarrassed. He was offered white jade to clear the way and gold bribes. So far, Cao Cao has not relented and promised to recommend his son Yang Xiu as an official.

Zhang Wu gave him a clay pill over there, but Cao Cao was beaming and very affectionate.

"Prime Minister, please pay more attention to Quanzi's official duties. I will take my leave first."

As soon as Yang Biao finished speaking, Yang Xiu pretended not to hear him and walked directly past his old father, came to Zhang Wu, bowed his hands and said, "Young man, Yang Xiu, pays homage to the champion."

Zhang Wu was a little surprised. Although he was the champion prince in the court, because he was disrespectful to the emperor again and again, the ministers in the court basically pretended not to see him when they saw him, for fear of getting involved with him. He hung up his hat as a rebellious official and traitor.

As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person. Zhang Wu has always respected me a foot, and I respect others a foot. He cupped his hands to Yang Xiugong and said, "I have heard for a long time that Yang Gong's son Xiu is a talented person and can debate matters. Today I saw it and it turned out that It’s extraordinary, I’m lucky to meet you.”

Yang Xiu smiled and bowed again: "I heard that there are no civil servants in the Fei Xiong Army. I would like to serve as a small official in the general's account."

Zhang Wu plucked his ears hard, thinking that he had heard wrongly. Although the chief clerk of the Marching Army was a civilian, the chief clerk of the Feixiong Army was not something that ordinary literati could hold.

First of all, Fei Xiong only has cavalry and pawns. The marching director must at least be able to withstand the jolting of the horses when he goes out with the army.

The key to the greatness of the cavalry lies in their high mobility. You can't buy a carriage for the chief clerk when the time comes. That's just a joke. If the general rides a horse, why should the petty officials ride in a carriage?

Look at Yang Xiu, who has thin arms and legs. He is only in his early forties and has no strength. He doesn't look like someone who can endure hardship.

"Yang Dezu really wants to join me, Fei Xiong, as the military commander?"

"It's true."

Since everyone has asked for it, Zhang Wu really lacks a convenient copywriter, so why shouldn't he say: "Okay. After the new year, come to Feixiong Camp to report." After speaking, Zhang Wu patted Yang Xiu on the shoulder: " It's cold in Xuchang, so wear more clothes. If you get cold, I don't have a good military doctor there."

Yang Xiu felt pain for a while and nodded with a grin on his face.

After leaving the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yang Biao exploded instantly: "Why are you so good at making decisions? That guy Zhang Wu is domineering and not a son of a man. How can you be better off if you go to Feixiong?"

Yang Xiu's face didn't change, and he replied slowly and logically: "If my father doesn't see it, the sky in Xuchang will always be gloomy."

Yang Biao was shocked and turned pale. He looked around and saw no other eyes and ears, and then said angrily: "I don't want to live anymore! What nonsense are you talking about!"

Even if Cao Cao really wanted to usurp the Han Dynasty, it would not be his turn to point fingers, and there were many cases where misfortunes came from his mouth.

Yang Xiu dusted off the snow on his long clothes and got on the carriage home first: "Father, have you been to the gambling house?"

"Okay, what am I going to do there?"

"The answer has not yet been revealed, so some people will place bets. One day, the prime minister usurps the Han Dynasty, and the champion prince will surely rise to great heights. If you follow such a person, even if you get some credit, you will be able to become a prince and become a prime minister. Why not? As for my father, It's better to be a loyal minister of your Han Dynasty as usual, and you can keep the name of loyalty."

For Yang Xiu, Zhang Wu personally has no special likes or dislikes.

People who are talented, arrogant and sharp are easy to control, because when such people are eager to express themselves, they are actually loyal in disguise.

On the contrary, those who keep a low profile and bide their time usually have big plans, but they are worth guarding against. As for what Lao Luo said in the novel, it was just because Yang Xiu had solved Cao Cao's "chicken rib" and withdrew his troops first, and Cao Cao was jealous that he killed him, that is a joke.

Cao Cao, a great hero of his generation, even if he was suspicious, would not be without this tolerance.

On the contrary, it was Yang Xiu who assisted Cao Zhi in seizing the heir, which was most likely a death-seeking move that aroused Cao Cao's sensitive nerves.

There's nothing to say about this. If this kind of desperate investment succeeds, you will be successful. If you fail, you will die without a burial place. This is purely a personal choice and Zhang Wu will not comment.

"This kid from the Yang Biao family still has some talent, but he doesn't leave any room for publicity. He went to Feixiong and returned to Ziqian, but he has to suffer."

Zhang Wu glanced at Cao Cao in surprise: "Am I so intolerable in the eyes of my father-in-law?"

"Oh?" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows: "If Zi Qian and Yang Xiu disagree during the march, what will you do?"

"Bind his body and seal his mouth."

Cao Cao smiled and asked: "Hahahaha, you are honest, so what's wrong with me saying that he has to endure hardship?"

Zhang Wu shook his head: "Yang Dezu is a smart man, he will not disagree with me."

As noon approached, Cao Cao ordered his guests to be dismissed and held a banquet in his mansion in honor of Zhang Wu and Guo Jia. The monarch and his ministers sat down and drank.

In the afternoon, Zhang Wuze bought gifts and knocked on the door of Dianwei's house.

Compared to the Prime Minister's Mansion, which was full of guests, Dian Wei's home seemed much deserted.

Although Dianwei is now a Guannei Marquis, if he is left in Xuchang, he can only be regarded as a middle and lower reaches at best. He is everywhere in the county, and the township marquis Tinghou is not as good as a dog. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, a Guannei Marquis can only support the facade, and its practical use is Not even half a cent.

When Emperor Ling was there, a Guannei Marquis could only be sold for about two thousand yuan.

There are only a few domestic slaves in the huge mansion.

"Brother Zhuhu, why don't you buy more domestic slaves? If you are short of money, just tell me directly."

Dian Wei led Zhang Wu to the main hall and sat down: "The prime minister treats me kindly and the money is sufficient. But I never stay at home. Your sister-in-law doesn't like to be extravagant, so she seldom buys domestic slaves."

Zhang Wu took out a pair of iron halberds and placed them on the table: "Brother Zhuhu's weapon broke that day, so I asked Wu Jin, a blacksmith in the city, to make a new pair according to the original style. You can try to see if you can get it right."

"You guys are really thoughtful. Between brothers, my brother won't say thank you."

"That's natural."

Dian Wei picked up a pair of iron halberds and couldn't put them down in his hands. Originally, his iron halberds were made of ordinary fine iron and were often worn down in battles. Now this pair is not only easier to use, but also can be regarded as a rare magic weapon. .

"You sit in the house for a while, I'll go find Xu Zhongkang to practice his skills." After getting the magic weapon, Dian Wei's first thought was to find a good friend to show off, but instead he just left Zhang Wu at home. He really didn't take him seriously. outsider.

Zhang Wu went to the inner hall to visit Dian's sister-in-law, hugged Dian Man, who was a toddler, and then returned home.
