"What's the situation? We shouldn't need to send a request for help to Hanoi or Binzhou."
Although the situation outside seemed to be turned upside down, the atmosphere in the Taishou Mansion in Anyi City was still very relaxed. Even Zhang Xiu, who was sitting on the main seat, was in the mood to wipe his sword and then talk to Zhong Yao and Yan beside him.
Tadashi is joking.
"Although I don't think it is needed, it seems that our Lord Zhou Mu is not at ease, so he sent us a group of strong foreign aid. Calculating the time, it should be here soon. Oops, I didn't expect that it would be taken care of by the juniors.
It’s been looked down upon.”
Yan Zhong also said with a smile while sipping tea, but his words successfully aroused the curiosity of the other two people.
"Oh? What kind of reinforcements are they? And if the momentum is too big, will it have an adverse impact on our previous plans? Those powerful people are a group of experts who can adapt to the situation. If we just throw away some abandoned ones, we can't do it.
It’s hard to investigate further.”
Zhong Yao frowned slightly. Although he couldn't bear the encounter that Hedong's powerful men were about to face. After all, many families had a good relationship with the Zhong family in the Luoyang court, but he also knew his identity.
Unless he is willing to give up everything he has now, what he can do is really very limited.
As for giving up everything now and following or joining forces with those powerful people? Zhong Yao obviously doesn't think that would be a good idea.
"Yuan Chang doesn't have to worry. Although reinforcements are very important, their scale does not have to be earth-shattering. You have to know that sometimes more soldiers may not be able to play a decisive role, but sometimes just
Three feet of fluffy white silk is enough to change the situation drastically. Speaking of which, I really forgot that I had such a hand."
"I said, Mr. Yan, what kind of detours are you taking? We Xiliang people always do things quickly."
If Zhong Yao, who was on the sidelines, had basically understood the meaning of Yan Zhong's words, then Zhang Xiu, who had only practiced martial arts and fought in his life up to this point, could not be said to be an "idiot" like Lu Bu, but in comparison
Yan Zhong, who has spent most of his life struggling in the bureaucracy, and Zhong Yao, who has a family background and spent a long time in the big dyeing vat of Luoyang, are very different in terms of political sensitivity.
Of course, Zhang Xiu knew his strengths and weaknesses very well, so he immediately asked for advice as soon as he found that he couldn't understand the other person's words. Anyway, this kind of thing can only be done if you listen too much and see too much. Even if someone like Lu Bu has an IQ that is infinitely close to ⑨,
The handling of certain things also looks similar, and those superficial arrangements cannot easily deceive a guy who looks simple-minded but has strong limbs, but in fact he is simple-minded, but because of his simplicity, he has a deep memory.
However, when it comes to appetite and patience, young people are obviously no match for the old fox. Although they are also from Xiliang, they are just like wise men appearing on the grassland. No matter how small the proportion is, they will give birth to several
It is still very easy for individuals to have characteristics that are obviously different from the group. Otherwise, where would evolution and development come from?
Therefore, Zhang Xiu’s behavior of setting his sights on the old fox is destined to fail~
Of course, such an idea only exists in the minds of the elderly who have not been exposed to new things for too long. For the new generation, after summarizing their experience, especially with the power of a role model, their methods are constantly being renovated.
for example:
grumble………………!
Although letting a real man use the Star Eye attack method and the target is a bad old man instead of an existence like Alain Delon is really a trick that can damage the enemy by a thousand and himself, but it can still work under certain circumstances.
To miraculous effect.
Of course, not everyone has the opportunity to use this trick on Su Xiaololi like Li Shushi did.
"Okay, let me give you a hint, what is our biggest advantage now?"
"Advantage?" Although Yan Zhong couldn't bear it and didn't tell Zhang Xiu the answer directly, and even the prompts were a little unclear, but because Zhang Xiu felt that Yan Zhong's expression didn't look like he was joking, so
He thought seriously.
"Military strength? No, although we do have an advantage in this area, it cannot achieve that effect. Financial resources? Although it has a certain influence on this battle, it is not enough to become a decisive influence. So..."
Although Zhang Xiu had been exposed to some administrative work under Li Shushi's deliberate cultivation, firstly, the time was too short, and secondly, Zhang Xiu was not very dedicated in this aspect, so Yan Zhong had to admit that he wanted to
It’s not easy to become fat with bad breath.
So, he had to point his finger at Zhang Xiu. As for Zhong Yao, although he still maintained a modest and gentlemanly demeanor at this time, Zhang Xiu knew from recent interactions that the other party was almost suffering from internal injuries.
However, Zhang Xiu's intellectual potential was still above the passing line. Although he did not understand the direction of Yan Zhong's topic at first, he soon realized that his close relatives were working in Luoyang now.
Of course, what he didn't know was that Zhang Ji's troops had already gathered together and Ma Teng was now on his way to Wuguan. There was no other way to make Zhang Ji pass by Hongnong without sending a message to Zhang Xiu. Anyway,
He also knows that his nephew has been busy recently.
"But everyone knows that 'that' is just a figurehead, how much effect can it have?"
Although Zhang Xiu does not understand the role of imperial power, he is not sure how much role it can play - after all, he is also the prefect of a county appointed by the emperor. Not to mention those powerful people are contrary to this, and he seems to be completely unafraid of being
Confiscating the family and exterminating the clan.
"A roll of white silk and a few lines of black text alone will naturally not have any effect, but if it is complemented with other means, the effect will be multiplied. However, don't underestimate the literary skill that has lasted for hundreds of years.
The influence of the empire, otherwise Dong Zhuo would not have been able to recruit so many people just by relying on the guy in name only in your mouth."
"But most people are people with evil intentions."
"That's right, even if they have evil intentions, they still have to show their face. This is an opportunity they can take advantage of."
After saying that, Yan Zhong glanced at Zhong Yao, who was leisurely and contented at the side, and the meaning was obvious.
Regarding Yan Zhong's little move, Zhong Yao said that he is just a brick of the motherland, and he will throw it wherever it is needed. Anyway, even if he knocks down the flowers and plants of the motherland, it is not because of his brick, so there is no pressure at all.
"Furthermore," seeing Zhang Xiu on the side nodded with some understanding, but still a little eager to give it a try, as if he wanted to continue looking for reasons to refute, Yan Zhong decided to take the final "fatal blow" to him, so he leniently
He took out a pile of old and new silks from his clothes and handed them to Zhang Xiu. Then in Zhang Xiu's surprised eyes, the old god said:
"Some of the characters here are the relationships established when Lord Zhou Mu was the governor of Hedong, and some are families who were originally hesitant but made up their minds after hearing the news of the imperial edict. Therefore, a title without power is just an empty talk.
But when the title has the power to assist, it is the supreme justice."
"I see. I didn't expect that even he would choose to abandon those guys. It's really surprising." Zhang Xiu shook a relatively new piece of silk with emotion on his face, as if this silk should not appear at all.
What it looks like here.
"Of course, for the sake of the family's survival, and since we have a good step forward, why do we have to hold on?"
Although Zhang Xiu did not clearly say who the owner of the white silk piece was, Yan Zhong seemed to already know the answer, but judging from his calm and slightly sad look, he had seen too many similar things.
.
Just as the three of them were chatting and laughing, the voice of Zhang Xiu's soldiers came from outside the lobby:
"Master Taishou, Jia Kui brought a young man here to ask for an audience. According to the young man's introduction, he is a descendant of the Guanqiu family in Wenxi County."
"Let them come in." Zhang Xiu ordered, while gently tapping a piece of white silk on the table with his hand, smiling and saying nothing.
"It turns out it's that little guy. He's a nice guy. He should have a big future. Wenqiao can also take a look. My opinion is to recommend him and Jia Kui to Mr. Zhou Mu, or send them to Hu Kongming.
It shouldn’t be any worse than the Lianzi Jing.”
Obviously, compared to Zhang Xiu, Yan Zhong, who had stayed in Hedong for a period of time with Li Shushi, was more familiar with the geography, customs and people of Hedong. Although it was not easy for him to show his identity at the time, he secretly collected the behaviors of those people and then learned about them.
There is no problem with his tasting. Don't forget that Yan Zhong is also quite unique in appraising people.
"My subordinate Jia Kui (Caomin Wuqiuxing) has met the Grand Administrator."
Both of them can only be considered half-grown children. Although in the Han Dynasty, people could be crowned at the age of fifteen when necessary, and even in some powerful families, due to various reasons, they could get married and have children at the age of thirteen or fourteen (if they were mature enough).
In modern society, we are just a group of children who are just in the sixth grade of elementary school, so we have come to the conclusion that childbirth is like a battlefield.
However, it seems that today's children are already very powerful at the age of twelve or thirteen, and it is completely invisible that they are only that young.
Well, this is definitely not because someone thought of something weird (such as X Jiang Sa Ling, Ru X Sa Ling, and Ru Jiang X Ling). By the way, lolita after its shelf life is no longer durable.
