Xun You and Xun Chen are from the same family. In terms of seniority, Xun Chen is still Xun You's uncle, so Xun You is called brother-in-law.
"Looking at what Gongda said, I wonder who the strong man behind you is?"
Although Xun You is my own nephew, it is better to ask outsiders more clearly.
"He is my guardian."
"In that case, come into the house."
Xun Chen pulled Xun You towards his inner room.
When they came to the inner and outer rooms, Xun Chen abandoned his left and right sides, but Dian Wei followed them closely and refused to leave at all.
"Gongda, this person?"
Xun You saw Xun Chen's embarrassment, so he gave the order to General Dian Wei.
"Dian Wei, you are waiting outside the door. If anyone dares to come and eavesdrop without permission, he will be killed without mercy."
"promise."
"Gongda, tell me, why are you here?"
The two sat down in the inner room. Xun Chen looked at Xun You in front of him, his eyes full of excitement.
"Brother-in-law, I see a flash of wisdom in your eyes. You must have something on your mind. You might as well tell me."
Xun You looked into Xun Chen's eyes and smiled.
"Gongda, you want to test me? That's fine, let me guess what you mean."
After Xun Chen finished speaking, he stood up directly.
"I asked why you came with the people who came with you. You are the guardian of lies. The only one in Jizhou that can have such brave men is under Yuan Shu, the prefect of Changshan. So you must have joined Yuan Shu's account, right or wrong."
After hearing Xun Chen's words, Xun You couldn't help but nodded.
"right."
"Well, since you have voted for Yuan Shu, I think the reason why you came here this time is because Han Fu caused trouble by donating military rations, which caused Yuan Shu to plot against Jizhou, right or wrong."
Xun Chen was right again.
"right."
"Since Yuan Shu has decided to plot against Jizhou, you must have some evil idea when you come here this time.
For example, they contacted Gongsun Zan and asked him to lead his troops to raid the three counties of Hejian, Bohai and Zhongshan.
Although Han Fu is the shepherd of Jizhou, he is neither brave nor resourceful. If he encounters Gongsun Zan's invasion, he will definitely come to me to discuss a plan to retreat from the enemy."
When Xun Chen said this, he glanced at Xun You again, meaning that there was no need to say anything else.
"Nothing can deceive my uncle. Our lord has sent envoys to closely contact Gongsun Zan to attack Jizhou. At the same time, he has sent me to contact my uncle. I hope you can help my lord."
Since Xun Chen had guessed everything, it saved Xun You a lot of trouble.
"Gongda, although Han Fu is neither brave nor wise, he treats Xun Chen well. If I let him hand over Jizhou to Yuan Jizhou, how will the world view me, Xun Chen, Xun Youruo."
Xun You was stunned by Xun Chen's words. He really hadn't thought of this, but so what, how could he, Xun Gongda, be troubled.
"Brother-in-law, when it comes to generosity and benevolence, Han Fu is comparable to my lord Yuan Shu in terms of bringing the world's heroes back to their hearts."
Xun Chen couldn't help but shook his head after hearing this.
"Not as good as."
"Then, in terms of staying calm in the face of danger, being decisive in the face of trouble, and having the demeanor of a general, Han Fu can compare with my lord."
"Not as good as."
Xun Chen shook his head again.
"In terms of family reputation, reputation and status, Han Fu is comparable to my lord Yuan Shu."
"Not as good as."
"In terms of military strength and bravery, Han Fu is comparable to my lord Yuan Shu."
"Not even comparable."
Xun You proposed four comparisons, and Xun Chen shook his head.
"Brother-in-law, my lord Yuan Shu is a great hero in the world and a hero among men. Han Fu is inferior to my lord in everything, but he has been above him for a long time. It's a temporary thing, but in the long run my lord will definitely not succumb to him.
under,
If an army were sent to attack, Jizhou would definitely be devastated, and Han Fu would not be immune to the suffering of those swordsmen.
Originally, Han Fu was an old official of the Yuan family. If the Yuan family had not tried their best to help him, he would not have been able to wait for the position of state pastor.
Besides, he and my lord are old acquaintances, and they joined forces to attack Dong Zhuo together.
If you can persuade Han Fu to give Jizhou to my lord, with this reputation of giving way to the virtuous, my lord will definitely not treat him badly. Gold, silver, wealth, and high-ranking officials will definitely be indispensable.
Isn't it better to be a rich man under my lord than to be a state shepherd in troubled times who suffers from fear every day?"
Xun You was able to think of so many things in just a short period of time. It must be said that the brain circuits of these top counselors are more complicated than ordinary people.
"Gongda, please give me time to think about it. Let me think about it."
Xun You poured so many things into Xun Chen in an instant, even though he was a smart man, it was difficult for him to make a decision for a while.
"Uncle, sometimes the more and longer you think about it, the harder it is to make a decision. It is a matter of mutual benefit for Han Fu to let Jizhou go. If you continue to hesitate and wait for my army to send troops to the capital and break through the city, then Han Fu will die or live.
It’s unknown.”
Seeing Xun Chen's hesitation, Xun You once again spoke to dissuade him. Sometimes it is true as he said. The longer time passes, the harder it is to make a decision.
"Hey, Gongda, Gongda, you are forcing me to be that unfaithful and unjust villain."
As Xun You said, Han Fude is not worthy of his position, and disaster will happen sooner or later. If he really waits until someone else comes to the city and surrenders, it will be too late.
"How can my uncle be disloyal and unjust? On the contrary, you are the most loyal and righteous person by doing this. Don't regret it because of some rumors."
Looking at the aggressive Xun You, Xun Chen could only nod helplessly.
"I'm afraid I can't do this alone. I have to involve Xin Ping and Xin Zhongzhi. Only through the combined efforts of the two can we succeed."
"That way I will be able to help you, uncle."
Xun You smiled slightly and gave Xun Chen a junior salute.
"Gongda, just trick me. Xin Zhongzhi is cautious and cautious. It's not easy to convince him."
Looking at Xun You who was smiling like a fox, Xun Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly.
My nephew is a well-known smart person. I have been plotted by him since I was a child. This time I am willing to help him with things. I really don't know what evil I have done to end up with this devil.
"My uncle is smart, so there is no need to worry about Gongda, so I will take my leave and wait for good news."
After Xun You finished speaking, he saluted again, then exited the room and followed Dian Wei out of Xun Chen's mansion.
After Xun You left, Xun Chen ordered people to close the door and began to think hard about how to persuade Xin Ping.
The next night, Xun Chen invited Xin Ping to a banquet in his mansion. After three rounds of drinking, Xun Chen abandoned everyone and invited Xin Ping alone to the inner room to spy.
The spies talked for two hours, and by the time Xin Ping came out from Xun Chen's place, it was already late at night.
"Sir, Xin Ping has left Xunchen's mansion."
Just after Xin Ping left, Xun You received the news.
"Okay, if the two of them can talk about this for such a long time, they must be done."
After hearing that Xin Ping was leaving now, Xun You thought for a moment and realized that his brother-in-law should have captured him.
Sure enough, Xun Chen sent someone to invite Xun You the next day. When Xun You came over, Xin Ping was already waiting in the inner room.
"Gongda, Zhongzhi and I have discussed this plan and it is feasible."
Xun Chen looked at Yan Xunyou and Xin Ping and spoke to them.
"However, I feel that it is not enough to have Gongsun Zan outside. I also need to light a fire in Jizhou."
