The last three kingdoms

Chapter 247 Greedy

Huang Hao lay leisurely on the Hu bed, surrounded by a lot of beauties and concubines who surrounded Huang Hao like stars, all of them coquettishly flattered Huang Hao with their flirtatious heads. Some beat their legs and pressed their shoulders, some peeled and fed fruits to Huang Hao, and even a large group of beauties were singing and dancing.

Huang Hao was a little indifferent - as a eunuch, he no longer had any physical needs, and it was purely a psychological need to raise so many beauties in the mansion. I have money, so I can play as I like.

However, Huang Hao soon lost his interest. Although he was enjoying the emperor-like treatment in style, he couldn't arouse his interest no matter what. Huang Hao handed it over in his mouth, his beautiful eyes were full of affection and charming.

But Huang Hao pushed her away in disgust, and shouted: "Get out, get out, get out, all of them get out, it makes me upset just looking at it."

These concubines didn't dare to make a sound, and hurriedly retreated one by one. They knew very well that this Eunuch Huang had a very weird temper. If he didn't follow his wishes, his head might fall to the ground. Just because he said something wrong, he was dragged down and executed with a stick.

The room became quiet, and Huang Hao stroked the gold-made Pixiu beast on the table with his hands, with a greedy look in his eyes. This Pixiu beast was sent by Yan Yu a few days ago. It is said that Pixiu is a The beast has a mouth but no anus, can swallow everything without letting it out, and can only enter and exit. It has special supernatural powers, so it has the meaning of attracting wealth and absorbing wealth from all directions. One of the five auspicious beasts, known as the lucky beast.

Huang Hao is actually not interested in women. There are so many beauties in the mansion, they are purely decorations. What he really likes are only gold, silver and jewelry.

At this time, a servant came in and reported: "Master, there is someone outside the door asking to see you."

Huang Hao said impatiently: "Didn't our family say that no matter who it is, we will never see each other. After finally returning to the house to relax for a while, all cats and dogs will come to bother us."

The servant hesitated for a moment, boldly handed over the gift slip, and said: "The man said that this slip must be presented to the master."

Huang Hao took it over and looked at it, and he was immediately elated. On the gift list, there was a long list of gifts, all of which were precious things, such as gold, pearl, agate, emerald, coral, ivory, and night pearls. He is already wealthy, but his greed for money has reached the point of no return. Since someone gave him such a big gift, Huang Hao would naturally accept it.

"Pass him up." The person who gave Huang Hao a gift is nothing more than a person seeking an official position, but it is rare for such a big gift. Huang Hao wanted to see who gave such a generous gift. As for what he wanted, Huang Hao wasn't worried. In the Shuhan Dynasty, there was nothing that Huang Hao couldn't do.

The person who came up was about 30 years old, elegant and capable, and bowed to Huang Hao.

Seeing that this person was extremely unfamiliar, Huang Hao couldn't help secretly becoming suspicious. Logically speaking, the person who asked Huang Hao for an official position was an official in the Shu Han Dynasty. People in the middle, what is the intention of sending such a heavy gift?
"Who are you?"

The man didn't answer, his eyes fell on the Pixiu beast in Huang Hao's hands, and he smiled slightly: "The thing in Master Zhongchang's hands should be a gift from the right general Yan Yu, right?"

Huang Hao was taken aback. Yan Yu's bribery to him was originally an extremely secret matter. This person concluded that he obviously knew the truth. For a stranger who knew the truth, Huang Hao's face could not help but gloomy, and his murderous intent was fierce. He asked again, "Who are you?"

The man bowed and saluted, and said calmly: "My Gu Feng, on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor of Wu, I would like to extend my utmost respect to Lord Zhongchang. This modest gift is not a respect, and I hope Lord Zhongchang will accept it with a smile."

He spoke with an authentic Sichuan accent, but he claimed that he was an envoy from the State of Wu. Huang Hao immediately understood that this person must be a secret agent of the State of Wu hiding in the territory of the State of Shu. status is not low.

Huang Hao snorted coldly, and said: "You will not be rewarded for your merits, our family has never had any contact with Master Wu, you should take these things back."

Gu Feng smiled slightly and said: "Master Zhongchang, how can you say that you have never had any contact with each other? The brave one in your master's hand, and other things, you must be well aware that they are all gifts from my lord through Yan Yu."

Huang Hao's eyes revealed a gloomy look, and he said, "Are you threatening our family?"

Gu Feng laughed heartily and said: "Don't you dare, I have absolutely no intention of doing so. Your Excellency Zhongchang misunderstood me. In addition to expressing my heart, I come here to discuss an important matter with you."

Huang Hao's expression softened slightly, and he said, "What's the matter?"

Gu Fengdao: "Lord Zhongchang must be well aware of the current situation. Shu is about to perish and is unstoppable. Lord Zhongchang should also find a way out for himself. If the Kingdom of Shu persists in fighting, it will definitely be destroyed. The only way out is Surrender. As for surrendering Wei or Wu, I think it all depends on what you say, Mr. Zhongchang. My lord has already said this time. If the lord of Shu is willing to surrender, he will definitely treat each other with courtesy and still respect him as a king. As for your merits, my lord will definitely not treat you lightly, and I plan to grant you the title of Marquis of Yiyang, and thank you with ten times the gold and silver."

Huang Hao couldn't help being stunned, not to mention ten times the gold and silver, this Liehou alone is what Huang Hao dreamed of. Huang Hao has served as the Zhongchang Attendant and the Fengche Captain, which is already the highest official position that a eunuch can hold No matter what, there is no place to be promoted. What Huang Hao desires most is to be a Marquis. No matter how high the official position is, he can only hold it by himself. Liehou can shadow his descendants.

Don't think that Huang Hao will have no descendants after becoming a eunuch. Isn't Cao Cao also a descendant of an eunuch?Huang Hao had already adopted his nephew as his heir. As long as he can be made a Marquis, all of Huang Hao's descendants will be able to enjoy the shadow.

However, Liu Chan never agreed to Huang Hao's request. Perhaps it was because of the opposition of the ministers, or perhaps Liu Chan did not want to violate the ancestral system. In short, Huang Hao's dream was not realized, which became his greatest resentment.Now that the opportunity to become a Marquis is in front of him like this, how can he not move his heart, but Huang Hao is a man of great wealth, although he is happy in his heart, he said calmly on his face: "Our family doesn't know whether what you said is true or not ?”

Gu Fengdao: "You are not joking, my lord is generous enough to agree, but how can he break his trust in the world, it is a pity that General Yan Yu died in the chaos of the army, otherwise, he would be the number one hero of Eastern Wu's conquest of Shu together with your lord. Zhong Chang My lord, Shu is about to perish, the country will not survive, Soochow has occupied the three counties in the east of Sichuan, and the city of Fu is the key city, and half of Yizhou will be lost to Wu. Perhaps the Wei people will not be able to offer such a generous offer, right? Where to go, please adults decide for themselves."

Huang Hao also understood the current situation, the Shu Han was definitely going to be destroyed, he didn't really care who killed the Shu Han, he only cared about his own interests.

"Okay, our family will enter the palace now and tell His Majesty how great it is."
