Chapter 1292 Kong Rong and Miheng
Yuan Xi stood by the roadside, bowed his hands, and watched Zheng Xuan's carriage gradually move away until he disappeared at the end of the official road. He slowly straightened his waist, looked around, and pounded his waist quietly with his fists. Feng Ji looked over, then glanced away, walked to the side, and started a warm conversation with other guests.
Yuan Xi was very grateful. He didn't want to be lazy, but it was really too hard for the past two days. He received guests during the day, bowed and bowed constantly, and had to handle military affairs at night. He sat in the middle of the night, and his waist and legs were really unbearable. Every time he arrived, he was a little worried that he could not bear it even in his early twenties. His father was nearly fifty years old. Can his health do it?
Although Yuan Shao was so tall and energetic at the beginning of the past, as his son, Yuan Xi returned to Yecheng to report his duties last time and had the opportunity to be alone with Yuan Shao, he clearly felt that Yuan Shao's spirit was not as good as before. The white hair on his hair seemed to appear overnight and could not be ignored. He could only use Mo Ran. Although Mo Ran's hair was black, it did not have the spirit, and it always felt a little strange.
In Feng Ji's words, dyeing his hair shows that he has realized aging and is just unwilling to admit it. The eldest brother Yuan Tan was defeated and captured, and the third brother Yuan Shang was young. If Yuan Shao suddenly fell down, Yuan Xi would undoubtedly have the opportunity to inherit his career. After understanding this, Yuan Xi became energetic. When he learned that Yuan Shao sent troops in the first month of the year, he immediately responded and sent troops in advance to seize Qingzhou.
If it weren't for the great scholar Zheng Xuan who finally accepted his invitation and wandered in Linzi for a few days, he might have already caught Tian Kai. The forward Yan Liang heard from him that he was chasing Tian Kai and had intercepted Tian Kai near Fuzeng Mountain, waiting for him to encircle. Tian Kai still has more than 20,000 people, and Yan Liang could defeat him, but it was difficult to catch him.
Gongsun Zan was his mortal enemy. As the old subordinate of Gongsun Zan, if Tian Kai could capture him alive, it would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to Gongsun Zan.
When Yuan Xi thought of starting a difficult march soon, he had a headache. It was difficult for people who had never experienced it to understand the pain in the army. Not only was he tired, but his psychological pressure was also very high. He had to open one eye when he was sleeping, for fear of accidents. Especially this time, he had to face not only Tian Kai, but also Sun Ce's subordinates, which increased his psychological pressure.
My brother Yuan Tan's defeat and captured was like Mount Tai that always stood in front of him, weighing heavily on his heart.
Yuan Xi was confused for a moment, looked at Mount Tai in the distance, sighed quietly, and pounded his waist slowly with his fists.
Kong Rong and Ni Heng stood not far away, a little far away from the crowd. They really didn't want to pay attention to those who were scrambling to talk to Feng Ji. It was precisely because of their cold eyes that they could see Yuan Xi's every move clearly.
Kong Rong sighed. "Zhengping, what are your plans?"
Ni Heng rolled his eyes. "Not yet, I don't plan to stay here anyway. A bunch of vulgar things is disgusting."
"Zhengping, although you are talented, but this..." Kong Rong smacked his lips, worried about Ni Heng. He is the kind of person who is arrogant, but compared with Ni Heng, he is also a witch. Looking around the world, there are not many people who can get into Ni Heng's eyes. This young man is too crazy.
Ni Heng disagreed. "Brother Wen Ju, if you abandon this Beihai prime minister, where are you going?"
Kong Rong looked into the distance, where his hometown was Lu. In recent years, Lu was first given to Tao Qian by Sun Ce, and then returned to Sun Ce. The war was endless. Now he might not be a good choice. When he learned that Sun Ce was about to seize Qingzhou, he knew that the war in Beihai was about to begin, so he simply quit his post with his seal. Yuan Xi recruited scholars and came to see it. After several contacts with Yuan Xi, he felt that Yuan Xi was not as good as Yuan Tan. Staying in Qingzhou was not a good choice, but he had not yet figured out where to go.
"Have you thought about it yet?" Ni Heng smiled and said, "Let's go to Chang'an together."
"Go to Chang'an?" Kong Rong pondered for a moment and nodded. "This is a good idea."
They spoke very loudly, a little ignoring others, and a little intentionally saying it to others. Yuan Xi and Feng Ji both heard it clearly, and did not say anything tacitly. They had no good feelings for the old and the young, and they wanted them to leave now.
Back in the city, Yuan Xi received Yan Liang's military report. Yan Liang received news from the surrendered stroke that Tian Kai's involvement, Sun Gan left Beihai half a month ago and went east, the same route as Tian Kai's retreat at this moment. Yan Liang suspected that Tian Kai and the men sent by Sun Ce to join in Donglai, and he hoped that Yuan Xi could arrive as soon as possible to form an encirclement of Tian Kai, first eat Tian Kai's troops, and then fight against Sun Ce's reinforcements.
Yuan Xi did not dare to neglect, so he immediately asked someone to take the map and discuss with Feng Ji. After the two analyzed it, they felt that Yan Liang's concerns were reasonable. If not, if Tian Kai wanted to withdraw from Youzhou, he should have gone to Duchang and Xiami, and not towards Fu Zongshan. Yin Qian divided Xuzhou into two, and Tao Shang brought the East China Sea and Langya was attached to him. Sun Ce's subordinates could no longer pass through Langya quietly. Even if the Tao Shang did not dare to stop him, he would promptly inform the news. In order to cover up his whereabouts, Sun Ce used his navy advantage to land in Guizhou, but it was entirely possible to land in the harbor between them.
"The ancestors once practiced Taoism in Laoshan and said that there was a good port nearby. The Navy of Qi State once used it as its resident. Qu County's Mi family is a giant in the East China Sea and is very familiar with sea routes. It is impossible for him to not know the existence of this port. In my opinion, Shen You are the most likely to land here."
Yuan Xi blinked. "If we can take all Qingzhou, we would like to enfeoff this port and Laoshan to Yuantu to continue the Feng family's homeland."
"Then I will thank the envoy in advance."
The two looked at each other and laughed, everything was silent. Feng Ji pondered for a while and said, "What do you think of Kong Rong and Ni Heng?"
Yuan Xi snorted: "What kind of tricks does Yuantu have to teach me?"
"Ni Heng is not a famous family, nor has relatives and friends. He is a clever person and hurts everyone. It doesn't matter if he neglects him. Kong Rong was a saint. He was a saint. He had a lot of knowledge and knowledge, and had a verbal argument. He became famous at a young age and was once supported by Li Yuanli. Even if he could not be a minister, he should not be neglected, otherwise he would be unable to tolerate others. Since he intended to travel far away, he should be the one who should be respectful to Chengyi and show his respect."
Yuan Xi thought about it and felt it was reasonable. "What Yuantu said was reasonable, but military affairs were urgent. I was afraid that I could not give him off in person. Let Hua Ziyu come forward on my behalf. As for Cheng Yi, I might as well be more generous, what about three hundred gold?"
"Three hundred golds are indeed rich, but Ni Heng and Kong Rong walk together, so you can't keep one and the other, and you can only attract resentment. Add another two hundred and get a 500-year-old."
"But." Yuan Xi agreed. He rubbed his thighs, thought for a while, and said, "Yuantu, do you think I want to send a message to my father and remind me? These two people will pass by Junyi when they go west. If my father doesn't know, they will certainly neglect them. If he knows that Kong Rong is famous and receives kindly, and conflicts are caused by his lack of knowledge about Ni Heng's character, it will be unbeautiful."
Fengtu smiled and nodded with relief. "That's right. I have been working for half a year and have a good understanding of the way of being a minister and a son."
Yuan Xi laughed. "I am a rotten wood. If I have an inch of progress, it will be all the contributions of Yuantu. Yuantu and Tian Kai are foolish things, but Shen You are the talented man in Jiangdong whom Sun Ce is accused of. This confrontation is not the same as before, and it is an opportunity to become famous and establish the world."
Feng Ji stroked his beard and smiled slightly. "Although Kong Rong was arrogant, there was one thing he said right. The only beauty in the southeast was Kuaiji Bamboo Arrow, and the rest were insignificant."
