Lu's relatives

Chapter 241 Cheng Yukong is proud, the guest tells the truth

Ever since the "confrontation" with Qin Xu in the morning, seeing Qin Xu withdraw without saying a word, Cheng Yu thought he had finally gained the upper hand, and there were a few smile lines on his face.

It's hard to blame this Yanzhou celebrity who changed his name because he dreamed of holding the sun on Mount Tai. Not long after he was enlisted under Cao Cao's command, Cheng Yu was known in Yanzhou for his military strategy, resourcefulness and decisiveness. He is ruthless in planning, disdains to drill camps, and is a lone minister, so Cao Cao has a lot of trust. He often keeps military counselors by his side, and there are many surprises in his strategies.

But such an important minister of Cao Wei who has made great achievements in history, after encountering the change of Qin Xu, seemed to have lost his ability to judge. Someone from Qin sneered and commented that "the book must be read again", and he lost face. In the subsequent series of tricks, whether it was the battle of the unknown valley, the instigation of the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou, or the battle of Jinan, it seemed that as long as With Qin Xu's appearance, Cheng Yu is doomed to be miserable, and by chance, he always suffers complete defeat.To put it bluntly, basically the reason why Yanzhou heard about Qin Xu's discoloration now, is actually mostly related to Cheng Yu's schemes against Qin Xu. How can Cheng Yu, who thinks so much of himself, bear it?It's no wonder that Qin Xu was "forced away" by Cheng Yu's questioning several times with ulterior motives, and Cheng Yu's purplish red face, which has a violent temper, turned out to be somewhat radiant, even his age seemed to be a few years younger .

"Mr. Zhongde, although Zhongming is an important minister of Qingzhou, he is quite attentive in getting along with someone, and he is not a scheming person. Mr. Angzhi and Zhongming had misunderstood before, but what Mr. today said is reasonable, but it is true. It’s serious!” Compared to Cheng Yu’s uncontrollable smile all day long, Cao Ang was quite embarrassed by Qin Xu’s “sincerity” of coming to tell Yuan Shao’s plot when Qingzhou was caught between Jizhou and Yanzhou. For love.Cao Ang has a gentle and honest personality, and he always puts himself in the shoes of others. In addition, he once had a heart-to-heart talk with Qin Xu. After Qin Xu left, he faintly complained that Cheng Yu's words were too straightforward, and he was afraid that he would hurt Qin Xu's kindness.From the time Qin Xu left in the morning until the evening, Cao Ang, who had experienced major events in his personal friendship and battle between heaven and man, blurted out this statement, intending to seek "justice" for Qin Xu from Cheng Yu.

"Eldest Young Master! This Qin Xu... well... In short, if the Eldest Young Master thinks that Cheng Yu's words are for personal enmity and hurt the friendship between the Young Master and that Qin, Cheng Yu is willing to be punished. But even so However, Cheng Yu still wants to persuade the eldest son that the world is difficult and dangerous, and it is not easy for the lord to start a business. This Qin Xu has always been treacherous, and even the lord has been defeated by his tricks several times. This is a sensitive period. It will cause immeasurable losses to Yanzhou's foundation that the lord is not around now. If Qin Xuguo has a conspiracy, takes the opportunity to make plans, provokes a fight between the Yuan and Cao families, and ruins the lord's affairs, then Cheng Yu will have no face to see him My lord? Eldest son!" Cheng Yu knows the character of this eldest son of this state. To be honest, if the state is in peace and prosperity, and this state becomes its own country, Cao Ang will definitely be a benevolent person if he takes over Cao Cao's power in the future. Lord.But what is the current situation?Chaos emerged in the great Han Dynasty, the emperor ordered him not to leave Weiyang, the states and counties of the country have become private property, and all forces are ready to go, just like the Zhou royal family was weak, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period.In this world of cannibalism, benevolence and righteousness can only be used as a banner to wave when needed, and to buy people's hearts, just like the deceitful Youzhou, don't drive Liu Bei, who claims to be the clan of the Han Dynasty, and is quite good at buying people's hearts , it really gave him a great reputation for benevolence and righteousness, but it was said earlier that he was helping Gongsun Zan to fight against Yuan Shao, but after fighting back and forth, Gongsun Zan imprisoned himself in the fortress of Yijing, and Youzhou became Liu Bei's master instead. Will there be something else, who can say clearly?Therefore, Cheng Yu saw that Cao Ang had made it clear that he was here to provoke Yuan Cao to fight, so as to save Qingzhou from an embarrassing situation and continue to maintain neutrality for stability; Politicians have taught people the art of scheming for a long time, but they are still easily deceived by Qin Xu's "false feelings and hypocrisy". In the end, they blame themselves instead, which really makes Cheng Yu a little dumbfounded!

"Mr. Zhong De needless to say!" Cao Ang seemed to feel that although what Cheng Yu did just now was inappropriate, after all, he was thinking of himself wholeheartedly. It was true that he hurt the heart of his important officials, so seeing Cheng Yu's heart-to-heart words, he didn't know what touched his mind. After a moment of silence, he finally just sighed and said to Cheng Yu: "Although Qin Xu has a good temperament They are congenial, have close personal relationships, and Qingyan and Yanzhou are also allies, but after all, they are their own masters; anyway, no matter whether what Zhong Ming just said is all tricks, Ang Ri will definitely not trust others easily in the future. Everything should only focus on my father's great cause."

"The eldest son can think this way, which shows how much he has learned recently. I believe the lord must be very happy!" Cheng Yu was still happy in his heart, but he didn't notice Cao Ang's rather lonely expression. The center of the dialogue, which was a confrontation of words, got something, and nodded in relief.

"I hope that Zhong Ming is really using tricks here!" Cao Ang didn't care about Cheng Yu's praise, and said lightly: "Perhaps this is the same age as Qin Xu, and he has already led Xuzhou for General Fenwu. The governor, but the reason why a certain is sheltered under the wing of father."

"The eldest son has a noble status, why should he be compared with that Qin Xuzhuzi? Xuzhou is so good? Left and right are just false names. As long as the matter of Chang'an is settled now, the Xuzhou that Qin has easily obtained may soon be gone. It will be the cause of Qingzhou's misfortune and death, Eldest Young Master, let's see!" Cheng Yu finally noticed Cao Ang's strangeness, but after listening to Cao Ang's words, he mistakenly thought that Cao Ang was jealous of Qin Xu who had already become an adult at a young age. Such an important minister stroked his thick beard and smiled with a rather contented look.

"What does Mr. Zhongde mean?" Cao Ang was surprised when he heard Cheng Yu's words, and hurriedly asked: "Qingzhou is in the north of Xuzhou, Yuzhou and Yanzhou are in the west, Yangzhou is in the south, and Yangzhou is newly defeated. Chaos, Yanzhou and Qingzhou are allies, where did the misfortune in Xuzhou come from?"

"Since ancient times, the scourge of destroying the country and destroying the family has all originated from within the Xiaoqiang!" Cheng Yu didn't say it bluntly. It is inevitable that the disorder comes from within..."

"Eldest son, Mr. Cheng, someone claims to be Mr. Cheng's former servant. There is a letter from his family, and he is eager to see him!" Seeing that Cheng Yu had succeeded in persuading Cao Ang not to be easily fooled by someone from Qin, he was about to tell some secrets While reassuring Cao Ang, he was suddenly interrupted by Xu Huang's intrusion.

"Former servant?" Cheng Yu's face of doubt flashed, and he immediately changed into a solemn expression, and hurriedly said to Cao Ang: "Young master, it should be one of your own, maybe there is something important, or see a See you!"

"Mr. Cheng!" The visitor seemed to be quite familiar with Cheng Yu, but he didn't know the eldest son Cao Ang, and even in front of Cheng Yu, he still covered his face with a cloak, as if unwilling to show his true colors, and even his voice was strange. It is hoarse, like a broken gong, which is very unpleasant to hear.

"Tao Er? How do you know that someone is here? Didn't you say before that if it's nothing serious, you shouldn't come to see each other easily?" Cheng Yu looked at Xu Huang who was standing next to Cao Ang, and spoke dissatisfiedly. said.

"A big deal? What's a big deal? Is it a big deal to destroy the family and destroy the state?" The person Cheng Yu called Tao Er sneered, he didn't seem to be Cheng Yu's subordinate, and he continued without waiting for Cheng Yu to refute. : "In the past, a certain person believed in Mr. Cheng's clever plan, but in the end, his family was ruined. If this person doesn't come today, I'm afraid Yanzhou will follow in his footsteps, and it won't be long."

"Tao Er, the two incidents in your family happened too suddenly, and the 'bad guy' made trouble out of thin air. It was not the fault of someone! But don't worry, Cheng has other plans, and only waits for the Chang'an incident. It can be carried out, and this time it will definitely come true, even if you don’t believe in Cheng, can’t you still trust General Cao?” Cheng Yu seemed not angry at Tao Er’s cynical and presumptuous tone, nor could he. It seemed that he didn't want to introduce Cao Ang's identity in front of this person, but he patted his chest to comfort him and said, "But what is the disaster in Yanzhou you mentioned? Could it be that your gentleman, is there any new news?"

"Hmph!" Seeing Cheng Yu say this, Tao Er seemed to have relaxed his tone a little, and his slightly stiff and thin body had also relaxed a lot, but his voice was still so cold that it could drop ice scum, and said, "Yuan Shao wants to use Lv Bu's military power , threatened the rear of Yanzhou, made Duke Cao worry about his own state and retreated from Chang'an, I must have known about it, otherwise he would not have come to Linzi. However, the rumors of Yuan Shao's conspiracy have been spread in Linzi City recently, and it must not be Mr.'s plan Bar?"

"That's natural!" According to Cheng Yu's violent temper, it was rare that he didn't show any impatience when he saw that this person was talking left and right, and he couldn't get to the point. He said with a calm expression: "On the surface, it seems to let Lu Bu see clearly Yuan's intentions, but in fact, the intention is to stir up conflicts between Yuan and Yanzhou. How can Cheng be confused by it? Moreover, just this morning , that Qin Xu thief has come here to tell the truth, he actually wants to deceive me in Yanzhou with such a small plan, it is really delusional! He has already been scolded by Cheng."

"Qin Xu..." Tao Er heard Qin Xu's name, and repeated it slowly, with a gurgling sound in his throat, as if he was holding back something, and said: "Since Mr. Cheng has seen through this The treacherous plan of the villain, do you know that just this morning, in the Qingzhou supply camp, more than a thousand people transported tens of thousands of stones of rations to Yanzhou?"

"There is such a thing?!" Cheng Yu's eyes flashed with vigilance, and he said to Tao Er with a cloudy face: "Then Lu Bu wants to create the illusion that an agreement has been reached with Yanzhou, and force Yuan's envoy to know Retire in difficulty? Or increase the stakes? No, no, it’s broken! Lu Bu, this thief, wanted to prove that the rumors against the Yuan family came from Yanzhou? But Yuan’s envoy heard that it was Guo Tu, a famous scholar in Jizhou. This person also has some clever tricks, so he shouldn't be easily fooled by Lu Bu's deliberate trick, right?"

"Mr. Cheng is really kind. He only saw Lu Bu's intentions from Lu Bujun's ordinary actions. No wonder my husband said that with Mr. Cheng in Yanzhou, you will definitely achieve great things!" Tao Eryin laughed and took a look. Cao Ang, who closed his eyes in contemplation, and Xu Huang, who looked calm, said calmly: "But Mr. Cheng may be disappointed. Guo Tu, who you said would not be fooled, has not only fallen into this scheme, but also... Huh Hmph, according to my husband's deduction, it is estimated that what Guo Tu knows about this matter will appear on Yuan Benchu's military case in Jizhou at the earliest tomorrow morning, Mr. Cheng should make plans early!"

"what!……"
