Gongsun Gong naturally didn't know what Chen Xi was thinking. To be precise, Chen Xi only came up with the idea that Gongsun Gong was a good chess piece after meeting him.
"Brother Gongsun, if you have time to see more of the prosperity of the Central Plains, will you have another chance like this when you return to the north?" Chen Xi's plain tone sent a chill in the ears of Liang Mao and Gongsun Gong.
"Marquis Chen is joking. How could General Gongsun do something to disappoint Duke Xuande?" Liang Mao said with a low eyebrow. He was not sure whether Chen Xi's tone was teasing or implying, but he could feel it.
What is the other party measuring?
"I hope that's the case. Now that the matter has been resolved, I won't stay here anymore. After all, things in Yecheng are still undecided, and I still need to deal with some things," Chen Xi saw that Liang Mao had already made a plan in his mind, so he stood up and said.
"The matter in Yecheng is serious. You and I have reached an agreement. After I travel around Mount Qingxu and Taishan, I will go to see Mr. Xuande to sign the documents." Liang Mao did not delay Chen Xi. He could see that Chen Xi was not interested.
You don’t want to stay long, leaving a good impression is good for both parties.
Chen Xi didn't say much, nodded and turned away. He had nothing to say. What Liang Mao wanted to see was the true strength of the world's overlord, not the combat effectiveness displayed on the battlefield.
Battlefield ability is indeed very important, and can even be used as a decisive factor, but this does not mean that a force has the confidence to continue to be strong. It is not unheard of for a force to lose and the world changes hands.
For example, Cao Cao was like this before. He was strong all the way, and even at his peak, his momentum was enough to compete with Yuan Shao and Liu Bei. However, in the end, he was almost destroyed in one battle.
Looking back at Yuan Shao, he fought steadily all the way, and there was no moment when his strength suddenly increased. However, if Yuan Shao had not died in the first battle between Yuan and Liu, and the Zhen family had rebelled, it would have been strange if the fight had not lasted for three to five years. Even now that Yuan Shao has died, Yuan
With Yuan Tan supporting the family, it is not easy for Chen Xi to defeat the opponent with a backhand.
What Liang Mao wanted to see was whether Liu Bei, who had risen so quickly, relied on war to support war like Cao Cao did at the time. If so, he would have to think carefully. If he relied on war to support war, he would not be able to win all the time.
There are problems, but as long as you lose one game, you will be in danger of overturning.
Chen Xi didn't have any special ideas about Liang Mao's request. Read more and think more. Cautious people will not make crazy choices. There is such a person coming, and as the full head of the mission, Gongsun Du
The next choice is basically determined. Their foundation is the strongest among all the princes in the world, even though they started from scratch!
Chen Xi didn't give any special instructions when he left, and left with almost no expression. Therefore, Liang Mao and Gongsun Gong were very surprised to receive Chen Xi's gift when they were preparing to go to Qingxu Taishan the next day. Waiting for them to take it
After taking that thing to Mount Tai, I was even more surprised.
"Huh, it looks like things are done." Gongsun Gong let out a long breath after watching Chen Xi leave, "The other person is not even as old as me. At that time, I didn't even have the courage to look at him.
"
"The opponent is Chen Hou after all, but at such an age he is already a highly respected minister. How can a playboy like you be able to match him?" Liang Mao glanced at Gongsun Gong speechlessly and said.
"It's just too scary. Is he really younger than me?" After Chen Xi left, Gongsun Gong gradually returned to his true nature as a son of the aristocratic family, but his face was extremely fearful. The suppression in his momentum was too terrifying.
"Yeah, I want to know too." Liang Mao said with a wry smile. How could they not know Chen Xi's age? But after meeting him, they just felt that they were very different. He didn't have the youthfulness of a young man.
, on the contrary, some of his qualities are close to those of some cunning old thieves.
After Chen Xi came out, he was a little aimless. After all, the main task today was to knock on the Gongsun family. It was obvious that Liang Mao who came this time was very aware of current affairs, so Chen Xi did not act harshly. Although it was not good news, but
It can be regarded as a half-day holiday saved for Chen Xi.
"Chen Ning, go and tell Zijing that I have settled the matter in Liaodong and ask him to send someone to prepare some gifts for the mission. Let them go wherever they want." Chen Xi said calmly, "Tell Zijing
Open the door to the other party and don't hesitate."
It is said that it is already the second September, and it has entered winter itself. Naturally, Lu Su usually does not appear in the Government Affairs Office, but handles government affairs at home with a stove and a blanket.
"Here!" A guard came out from a distance, replied to Chen Xi and left quickly.
After receiving Chen Ning's reply, Lu Su quickly wrote a document and asked his escort to send it to Li You, and then stamped the letter back and forth. Chen Xi's so-called open door to convenience was completed.
"It looks like they need to be equipped with two guides." Li You said calmly after finding Chen Xi in person.
"Then it's your business." Chen Xi didn't answer the question at all.
"It's your own fault." Li You replied calmly.
"I'm happy to." Chen Xi replied with a cold snort.
"Haha." Everything was destroyed in silence.
Li You's expression made Chen Xi's hair explode, but before Chen Xi could defend himself, Li You turned around and left, but his voice came over, "I will do the next thing myself, you quickly settle all the aristocratic families, if necessary
The marriage does not mean that you have lost your status. Don't make yourself uncomfortable, we will also suffer, and others will not understand it."
Li You supports Chen Xi marrying Zhen Mi. After all, Liu Bei's marriage to Zhang is already a foregone conclusion, and Chen Xi marrying Zhen Mi is good for everyone. As a result, if not everyone knows that Chen Xi and Liu Bei have a great relationship
, I will definitely wonder if the two of them are going to have a conflict.
Chen Xi stood there silently without speaking. After a long pause, he shook his head and turned away. He had nothing to say and didn't want to say anything.
When Chen Xi turned around and walked towards the other end of the road with a depressed expression, he didn't notice that someone was looking at him in a restaurant not far away.
"Sister Zhen, actually you can go there." Xin Xianying pulled Zhen Mi's sleeve and said.
"What are you doing in the past? You need to wait for a while. He is in a bad mood, and I am in a bad mood. There is no way to communicate in the past." Zhen Mi glanced at Xin Xianying, who was giving advice next to her, stretched out her hand to touch the other person's forehead, and then rubbed it.
He rubbed his face and said, "You little girl is really as big as a kid."
"If you don't want my help, I'll go see my dad." Xin Xianying struggled out of Zhen Mi's hand, jumped far away, made a face at Zhen Mi and ran away.
