Lu's relatives

Chapter 406
Xun You deserves to be born in a Confucian family and was regarded as the mastermind by Cao Cao.Facing the more than a hundred advanced crossbows held in the hands of the advanced soldiers, even the tiger and leopard cavalry, who were proud of Cao Cao and claimed to be not weaker than the elites in the battle, subconsciously showed their strength. He looked a bit dignified, but Xun You seemed to treat these big killers as if they didn't exist, as if meeting Qin Xu in a personable manner, with a gentle and elegant attitude, which was heartbreaking.

"It's an honor for Qin Xu to bother Mr. Gongda. I just don't know that this time Gongda didn't serve by Cao Gong's side, but passed on the letter to Qin, and there was such a big battle. What can I teach you?" If you are with Xun You The children of this class of aristocratic families pay attention to etiquette, and they don't know how long they will continue to argue. After a long time, it will have a great impact on the soldiers' morale and combat power. Qin Xu never dared to underestimate the top strategists these days, talking and laughing freely There are tricks everywhere, maybe one will get caught by accident, it's better to get straight to the point.

"Heh, Qin Shijun is really quick to talk, but he looks contrived!" Xun You was not at all annoyed by Qin Xu's "disgraceful" attitude, and said with a smile and elegance, "I'm telling you the truth, servant This time, I came here to save the envoy's life!"

"Huh? Mr. Gongda really said that!" The words were so familiar that Qin Xu couldn't help but laugh.Is this classic phrase particularly popular these days?Counselors who have almost a name and surname like to say, do they love to show their identity as the savior?Qin Xu looked up and down at this great counselor who has been passed down through the ages, and said with a strange expression.

"What is the meaning of Qin Shijun's words? Don't you think that what you said is alarmist?" Xun You asked almost subconsciously.Long before coming to Pingyuan, Cao Cao had already warned him that someone from Qin had a sharp tongue, and he absolutely must not give him a reason, otherwise he would only humiliate himself. Cao Cao had suffered a lot before.Xun You really listened to these words at the time. After all, as Qin Xu's reputation became more and more prominent, he was able to climb to his current position at a young age. Apart from having a good father-in-law, it is estimated that no one would be capable believe.Therefore, although Xun You is determined to win the trip, he is not sloppy in his preparations. He even prepared several versions of Qin Xu's answer early on. Just waiting for Qin Xu to speak, he will definitely fall into a trap among.But what Xun You didn't expect was that he thought he valued Qin Xu very much, but in the end he underestimated Qin Xu's slipperiness, and he didn't even pick up the fight, but almost got himself involved.Therefore, as soon as Qin Xu said something in his words, great counselors like Xun You also blurted out questions because of "inertia".

"How could it be!" Qin Xu said with a smile: "Mr. Gongda is a descendant of Xunzi, and he is also related to the eight dragons of the Xun family who were famous in the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty. Naturally, his views are much higher than that of Qin, a kid. How could Qin take Mr. Gongda's "teachings" as a deaf ear? Besides, regardless of the [-] soldiers under General Xiahou's command, just look at the guards behind Mr., who are tall and brave, and want to take Qin's life. Isn’t it easy? If Qin dared to say a word of disrespect, wouldn’t his life be in danger? I hope that Mr. Qin will teach you how to survive as soon as possible!”

"This..." How could Xun You not hear the faint irony in Qin Xu's words.Looking at the tiger and leopard cavalry behind him who was tensed up by the silent power of the first-deng crossbow raised horizontally, Xun You was extremely clever, but it was difficult to find a justifiable one for a while. reason.After a moment of silence, he smiled wryly and said, "Emissary Qin was joking. These people are just my lord, Mr. Cao, who cares about the safety of his servants, and specially appointed guards to protect his ears. How could they target you, Emissary Qin! You do have an extremely disadvantageous envoy. I want to share the news for the sake of being allies, and as for General Xiahou, he came here this time with good intentions to help."

"Is it Yuan Xi's plan or Black Mountain's attack?" Qin Xu didn't appreciate Xun You's "explanation" at all. He expressed his guess in a lazy tone, but he was quite nervous in private. Staring at Xun You's eyes, he only hoped to find some clues from Xun You's facial expression.Yes, Qin Xu is cheating.I remember that many criminal investigators in later generations said that people's micro expressions cannot deceive people. Although Qin has never learned this way, he is confident that he can rely on his knowledge of more than 800 years to get rid of the face of a great counselor like Xun You. Go up and find out some clues.

"Yuan Xi? Black Mountain? Impossible! Could it be that Qin Shijun listened to the villain's slander?" But it is a pity that this pig's foot halo did not take care of someone Qin too carefully. Qin Xu's plan this time is destined to be I'm going to be disappointed.Because Xun You didn't know if he had seen through Qin's poor acting skills. In short, after hearing what Qin Xu said, his reaction was completely negative, and he said: "Yuan Xi's success is not enough. If he has such courage, his brother Yuan Tan will definitely not suppress him. And the Black Mountain Bandit... oh, Qin Shijun, don’t lie to your servant. Before coming, my Lord Cao once said that no matter what the world thinks of the Black Mountain Bandit, my Lord is effective. The envoy persuaded Qingzhou to surrender a million yellow scarves as a feat of good people in Qingzhou, and it has already achieved considerable results. Therefore, Qin envoy was bewitched by villains, so he came up with such an idea?"

"Hey... this guy is a tough guy!" After listening to Xun You's few words, not only was he not deceived by Qin Xu, but on the contrary, he was about to use the words of someone from Qin to attack Cao Cao's forces. Unfavorably, there was news of collusion with the black mountain bandits, which was completely washed away.Such a quick brain turning really made Qin Xu feel ashamed, and at the same time, the warning line against Xun You was further raised in his heart.

It wasn't Jizhou, which borders the plain, and it wasn't the cavalry from Xiahouyuan's miraculous journey. Could it be that Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan's forces from Youzhou, which is a whole Bohai County across, came to attack?
"Does Qin Shijun know the situation of the people in the north of Jizhou?" Qin Xu only felt that it was really evil today.Are good spirits not bad spirits?Just now, I was forced by Xun You's words to make fun of the Youzhou incident, but I didn't want to be confirmed by Xun You in a short time.

"Gongsun Zan of Youzhou? It is said that he was imprisoned in the fortress of Yijing, cast ten pig iron gates, and dug wide ditches to protect himself! Poor Gongsun Bogui was also a hero when he attacked Dong Zhuo back then. It’s so worn out?” Qin Xu understood that when talking to literati these days, you have to have the will to live.If you listen carefully, he will talk to you about other things, but if you don't want to listen, some of these people's words will arouse your curiosity, and in the end you still have to listen to these people's scares.It seems that my father-in-law Lu Wenhou said it better!If you have nothing to do, you really can't learn from this gang of people.

"Oh! Gongsun Bogui is a hero in the world. When Baima Yicong ruled the world, he was in the limelight for a while. Even when the Guandong princes were begging for Dong, he made a lot of achievements. How could he win in just two years? What about such a cowardly temperament?" Seeing that Huatou had finally aroused Qin Xu's interest, Xun You heaved a sigh of relief, and the smiles on his face became more and more friendly. Said: "When Liu Bei abandoned the plains and joined Gongsun Bogui's family, he never heard that Bogui had such a hobby. Why did Liu Bei and others come up with the idea of ​​getting rid of the dust not long after they entered Youzhou? It’s not that the general who has guarded the frontier for many years and killed a lot may do it!”

"Mr. Gongda, is it possible that you want to tell me that the reason why Gongsun Bogui is so pretentious and builds a tower to imprison himself is actually something else?" Qin Xu looked very interested, and sat up straight, but he didn't When it was time to take a breather, he lay down on the table again, stared at Xun You on the bullock cart opposite, and said, "Even if Gongsun Zan actually died somewhere, or it was the hands of the three brothers Liu Bei, Now it is said that the one who is still in the Yijing City Tower is just a counterfeit, but what does that have to do with Qin? Could it be that for this, not only did you come all the way from Gongda, but you also sent Xia Houyuan to accompany you, Just to save the life of Mr. Qin who wished to die early? Based on some rumors heard from nowhere, he sent a large army to protect Mr. Qin's safety? Should Mr. Qin also express his gratitude to Duke Cao for his great love? How many kowtows will you give Duke Cao?"

"Qin Shijun, please don't joke!" Listening to Qin Xu's previous words, Xun You thought he had a trick, and successfully hooked Qin Xu's curiosity, but unexpectedly, Qin changed the subject and said something else. With these words, even Xun You, who is self-cultivated and easily unwilling to get angry, has a sign of turning pale at this moment.He said in a low voice at the moment: "It's no wonder that General Qin is like this. Is it possible that General Qin is not wondering that Qingzhou is currently under the rule of General Lu, and nine of the six counties and three places have their own politics of Wen Hou Rende, Only in Pingyuan, not only is there a series of fraudulent cases under the guard of a heavy army, but also the people's hearts have been repeatedly repeated, which is futile. Then with the wisdom of the Qin envoy, it is hard to think that it is only because of the fact that Pingyuan is the same as Qingzhou. Is the contradiction just in a big river?"

"Mr. Gongda saw and taught him!" I have to say that if Xun You is put in 800 years, he might really become a brilliant psychiatrist.I found this topic, but it really suits people's appetite.At the beginning, after a hundred investigations, it was still difficult to understand the food and grass in the plain. It was Jia Xu who had surrendered to Qin Xu, and Jia Xu was still the source of the chief officer. He didn't investigate too much in detail, but at this moment, Xun You said the "pass" so easily.

It's not like Qin Xu didn't suspect that although he had left Pingyuan for more than a year, Liu Bei still had an indelible brand of benevolence and righteousness in Pingyuan County.And later through the shadow of the investigation also confirmed this.But the problem is, I only know it but don't know why, and the shadow is not omnipotent, so I came to such a conclusion after several deliberations.Therefore, he had an expression of "I fully understand" towards Xun You, but after arousing Qin Xu's interest, he quickly kept silent.

"The morality is not shallow!" Facing Xun You's appearance that he obviously wanted to sell the news that Qin Xu was interested in, Qin Xu felt relieved, and sincerely praised Xun You.At that time, the Pingyuan fraud case had caused his father-in-law Lu Bu a headache for a long time. Even when he heard that the people's hearts were not on his side at the time, he simply refused to allocate food to Pingyuan, so that these gangs did not know what was good and what was wrong. People learn a lesson.Save this group of people who get the benefits and act good, pick up the bowl and want to eat, and after eating, they throw the bowl and scold their mothers, eat Lu Bujun's money and food, pay Qingzhou government taxes, but from head to toe, everything is "written" The name of the big ears.How not to be annoying.Obviously, Xun You seized this matter and intended to use it as a bargaining chip to achieve what he wanted, and he had to let himself recognize him as good. The gold content of this calculation is not low.

"If you ask General Qin to make a comparison, which general under Liu Bei is stronger or weaker than Yuan Xi? In fact, you don't need to think about it, it's already obvious at a glance. In this way, what can a mere Bohai County stop? "Xun You said to Qin Xu with a mysterious look.Seeing Qin Xu's thoughtful look, Xun You stroked his beard and waited for a while, but then said.It is no wonder that Xun You has such thoughts. Now that he has revealed some of the "top secret" information that Cao Cao hid in the plains, he simply plans to add more fire. I believe that with his own means, as long as Qin Xu can Shocked, it will be much "easier" to deal with in the future.

"Thank you, Mr. Gongda, for your enlightenment! Mr. Don't have to be a fool. I think Mr. came here for Cheng Zhongde and others? Well, Qin wanted to repeat the same mistakes before, and he still paid the same price as the Cao brothers last time." Redeem and buy back your Mr. Cao’s precious lump, um, but since Mr. Qin has brought another inquiry idea of ​​Ping Yuan’s fraud case, how about Qin giving you a friend’s price?” Xun You said something. Half of them kept silent.Qin Xu, who already understood what Xun You meant, was about to laugh again.This trick of playing hard to get was used by the great strategist in such a way, which makes people feel unreasonably inferior. Presumably Xun You, who always played high-end strategies before, and disliked militaristic strategies, is also depressed, right?Just such a news that can be clearly stated in one sentence, let Xun You treat it as a chapter-style novel, come here at every turn and pause as if listening to the next chapter, just to see Qin Xu's expression and achieve the ultimate goal. Xun You felt so aggrieved that even Qin Xu couldn't go on any longer, so after thinking about it, he spoke directly.

"What?" Now it was Xun You's turn to be completely dumbfounded.The last time Qin Xu "trafficked in human beings" happened before Xun You was conscripted by Cao Cao. He didn't attend the scene in person, so he never saw the "hot" scene at that time. Speaking of Qin Xu's gritted teeth after he came, one can know that this matter has almost become the demon of the two of them.Although he knew Qin Xu's sinister intentions, Xun You still asked in a strange way, "Friendship price? What do you mean?"

"Ha, it's simple! To be honest, Brother Gongda, when you and I saw each other, we were pretty much the same. Although we are each other, we are allies after all. Originally, it was true that we were trying to take a shortcut and cross the Qingyan border. It was Qin who made a mistake. But the decision was just a mistake! And what about Cheng Zhongde? Well, tens of thousands of arrows, as if they don’t need money, are overwhelmingly taken care of by our unarmed brothers in the army, without a break in between Hey, brother Gongda, you don’t know, I was so distressed at that time!” Qin Xu exaggerated, deliberately exaggerating the bad deeds of Cheng Yu, who was very similar to the "big devil" in children's games.Xun You frowned.

Although the Xun family is a scholarly family, after all, in its heyday, there were more than [-] people including the servants it raised.In order to feed such a large family, even if they feel that these "stuck things" are more troublesome, some of them have secretly sent the family's inner circle to buy a piece of land in the name of others to cover a shop, or rent it, buy it or sell it, even if it is for their own use. some.It was just in exchange for some daily expenses, so Xun You didn't have much emotion to express.It's just the only worry, if Qin Xu sets the price too high, will he agree or not?

"Mr. Gongda, don't worry, the price is absolutely fair! After all, we have become friends, don't we?" As if he could see through Xun You's thoughts at a glance, the smile on Qin Xu's face became more intense.If it weren't for the fact that the two of them were now in their own cars, surrounded by guards with weapons, and the two were not close to each other, Qin Xu really wanted to make a deal like a deal in later generations. Everyone shook hands and had money in the future. earn together.But after all, is he going to do as the Romans do? Seeing Xun You's wary eyes and the rare nervousness shown because he was afraid that his bid would be too high, Qin Xu, who had inadvertently won a victory, really wanted to laugh loudly at this moment.Seeing Xun You's demeanor, Qin Xu elongated his voice playfully and said, "Gongda, since you and I are friends, we must pay a friendship price to be worthy of our 'knowledge', so I will accept you... One penny and five baht!"

"Uh...? I don't know...uh, can other people follow the example?" Xun You asked a little embarrassed.God!help me!The dignified Xun family's clever tricks don't work, but in the end they can achieve their goals as if they were buying things at the market.Furthermore, Xun You didn't even need to think about it. If Cheng Yu knew that he was "bought" by him with a penny, it would be strange if he didn't get angry.But right now, he finally reached an "agreement" with Qin Xu after all the twists and turns, and he couldn't stop doing this matter just because it might upset Cheng Yu.What's more, compared to buying Cheng Yu, Xun You still has important things to do.

"Who else does Gongda want? Even if you explain them one by one, the price offered by Qin must be more reasonable!" Qin Xu asked with a bright smile, but he obviously knew why.The meaning here is self-evident.Cheng Yu said it well.No matter what, the Lu and Cao families haven't fallen out yet, and there's no point in offending Cao Cao to death for Cheng Yu.Anyway, there were no casualties in the Flying Cavalry Battalion, only a few soldiers who were not careful were scratched by Liu Ya.Selling Cheng Yu for a penny can not only vent his anger, but also ease the relationship. Qin Xu's deal is a good deal.But Cao Jun's men were not the only ones who were captured at the same time!Say!As long as you Xun Gongda dare to say it, then we dare to sell it!

"Hmm..." Xun You finally got into trouble.Just now, I have been arguing with Qin Xuxu, and even wanting to let Qin Xu's plan of "revenge" succeed at the expense of his own reputation. Seeing that Qin Xu is about to fall into the trap, unexpectedly this kid is like a crystal ball stained with oil, slippery Hands, don't take the bait at all.Now it seems that in the confrontation just now, it is unknown who is playing and who is playing, but Cao Cao's strict order... what to do!
"Da da ta da..." Just as Xun You was cornered by Qin Xu's words and was thinking of countermeasures quickly, a sudden change occurred.

"Not good, large group of cavalry! There is an enemy attack!" Xiandeng and the elite soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Second Battalion, who were guarding Qin Xu and Xun You, warned at almost the same time...
