Chapter 16 Jia Xu Returns
Zhang Lan and his party left Maoling the next day, and chose Dong Zhuo's place as their first stop.

Zhang Lan went to Dong Zhuo after careful consideration. Firstly, she was afraid that Dong Yu's mother-in-law would not be able to bear it all the way, so she sent her back to her natal family for care.The second is to ask Dong Zhuo for someone. There must be some unexpected problems along the way, and there must be a smart person to help.

Zhang Lan didn't come out to bring many people, only Zhang Liao and Zhang Long and Wang Hu who were selected from the trapped camp as personal soldiers.

These two people were chosen because they are considered to be one of the more discerning people in the personal army, and the name has a good meaning, Zuo Qinglong and Right White Tiger, if there is another Suzaku Xuanwu, then China's four great beasts will be complete .

Came to Dong Zhuo's mansion and paid a visit to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo naturally did not expect Zhang Lan to come.

When he came to the lobby and sat down, Dong Zhuo asked Zhang Lan to watch tea, and asked Zhang Lan curiously, "Why is De Liang here? I just came back yesterday, so you just..."

"Father-in-law." Zhang Lan looked at the servants around him.

Dong Zhuo understood and dismissed everyone.

Seeing everyone leave, Zhang Lan said again, "My lord father-in-law, now that the eunuchs are in power, the world is not at peace. In a few years, the world will be in chaos. Don't be afraid of your father-in-law's blame. Although your soldiers are brave, none of them can stand alone." The overall situation, I have the ability to know people, my father-in-law knows it, and time is running out, so I decided to go out and travel to find talents and make plans for our future."

Dong Zhuo's reaction was slightly unexpected to Zhang Lan, he just nodded lightly, and after a moment of silence, he whispered two words "Yeah"

Although it was not within Zhang Lan's expectations, at this time Zhang Lan was no longer the stunned boy when he first came to this world, and then said, "My son-in-law has another purpose for this trip. I imagine my father-in-law borrowed a people"

"Oh? Who?" Dong Zhuo immediately became interested. He knew that Zhang Lan could recognize the person, and the person Zhang Lan was looking for must be a great talent.

"Father-in-law, this person's surname is Jia Mingxu and Zi Wenhe." Zhang Lan looked at Dong Zhuo anxiously and said no more.

Dong Zhuo thought for a while, he knew that Jia Xu had some talents, but he was not a talented person, so he agreed.

"Okay, I'll write you a letter and you just take it to him." Dong Zhuo wrote a letter decisively and handed it to Zhang Lan.

Zhang Lan didn't refuse and accepted the letter.

Zhang Lan found Dong Yu in her mother-in-law's room, first greeted her mother-in-law, and then told Dong Yu to let her stay at her mother's house for a few days, waiting for him to come back.

Although Dong Yu agreed, but her moist eyes told Zhang Lan her reluctance, which made Zhang Lan feel distressed for a while, and the days of eunuch chaos were not far away, after all, Zhang Lan didn't know whether history would be He Jin recruited Dong Zhuo to Beijing again like before, Zhang Lan gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, and left with a firm heart.

Leaving the Governor's Mansion, Zhang Lan naturally came to Jia Xu's residence, not far from the Governor's Mansion.

"dong dong dong"

A middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper opened the door. Seeing Zhang Lan and the others, he asked suspiciously, "Who are they? Who are you looking for?"

Zhang Lan cupped her hands and said, "I am Zhang Lan, Prime Minister of Maoling, I am here to meet Jia Wen and Master Jia, please inform me."

The middle-aged man glanced at a few more people and said, "What's the matter?"

"This is not a place to talk, sir, please inform me." Zhang Lan smiled wryly, thinking, "You can just inform me, why ask so many questions?"Presumably Jia Xu must know me and should meet me'

The middle-aged man thought for a while, then said "Come in" and led Zhang Lan and the others into the hall.

The man arranged for Zhang Lan to sit down, but he himself sat on the main seat. Zhang Lan was also taken aback, but then he was relieved. Since he could be the main seat, this must be Jia Xu, but Jia Xu did It's also too inconspicuous, without any demeanor of a great sage, no wonder such a great talent has not shown its prominence in Dong Zhuo.

"Why did Mr. Zhang find Jia?" Jia Xu asked Zhang Lan first.

Zhang Lan signaled for Zhang Liao and the others to step back, not because Zhang Lan could not trust Zhang Liao, but because she was afraid that Jia Xu would guard others and dare not speak out.

Zhang Lan did not answer Jia Xu's question directly, but asked, "What does Mr. Jia think about the world today?"

Jia Xu's heart skipped a beat, but she still said calmly, "Now that the Yellow Turban is flat, the world is at peace."

"Master Jia is deceiving me." Zhang Lan seemed to have expected that Jia Xu would say this, "The Yellow Turban Rebellion has come to an end, but there are still remnants, and even thieves from all over the country rebelled. How can there be peace?"

"What does Mr. Zhang mean by this?" Jia Xu was surprised.

"I just want to ask Mr. Jia, if disputes arise everywhere, is it feasible to follow the Ming Lord to settle down the world, or is it easier to survive in troubled times?"

"This"

Zhang Lan didn't give Jia Xu a chance to speak, "I know that Mr. Jia only wants to be safe. With Mr. Jia's ability, others don't know me, so how can they not know? But now the world is going to be chaotic. If Mr. Jia meets the Ming Lord, it will be fine. Can incompetent people get good results? I, Zhang Lan, come from an ordinary background at any time, and I have a low official position, but I think I am one step ahead, and I have everything I need, civil and military generals. Mr. Wenhe follows me, and I will definitely live up to Mr. Wenhe’s trust.”

Jia Xu is also a smart person. Although she was surprised by Zhang Lan's words, she still acted calmly.

Seeing that Jia Xu remained silent, Zhang Lan continued, "Mr. Wenhe must know the prestige of my camp. Although there are not many in number, each of them is a man who can fight against a hundred. Zhang Liao, Zhang Ren, and Gao Shun are all under his command." The generation with high martial arts is all-rounder, with Zhuge Liang and Cao Caobao in the rear, and Dong Cishi is my father-in-law as a helper, with Xiliang as the foundation, can you make a plan for the world?"

"If I surrender to the general, what position will the general take?"

"If Mr. Wen He is willing to help me, he will definitely treat him as a military adviser." Zhang Lan was overjoyed for a while, and when he heard Jia Xu's words, Jia Xu promised that he would be close to each other.

Sure enough, when Zhang Lan finished speaking, Jia Xu stood up and bowed, "Jia Xu pays homage to the lord."

"Mr. Wenhe, please get up quickly." Zhang Lan helped Jia Xu up, "My husband is like a dragon gaining clouds, and a tiger with wings can accomplish great things."

Jia Xu smiled and didn't care, but said to Zhang Lan, "What's the next step, my lord?"

Zhang Lan told Jia Xu of his plan, "I'm planning to go to invite some strong generals and ministers, and I hope Mr. Wenhe will accompany me."

Jia Xu paused and said, "My lord invited me, I should have gone, but now I'm still under the command of Governor Dong, so it's inconvenient to go."

Zhang Lan laughed out loud, Jia Xu was puzzled by this laugh.

"Mr. Wen He, don't worry, do you think we can go together now?" Zhang Lan took out Dong Zhuo's letter and handed it to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu opened the envelope suspiciously, and smiled after reading the letter.

"If so, Xu would like to go with the lord"

 Jia Xu logically said that he should be under Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu now, but now that Niu Fu's son-in-law is gone, he can only be arranged here directly.
