In front of the guest house next to the Avenue outside the east gate of the city, Meng Da and Fa Zheng stood side by side, looked at the speeding carriage, looked at each other, and sighed at the same time. The guest recruiting the guests happened to pass by, and heard them sighing, and smiled: "You don't need to be envious. General Sun treats wise men and is eager to seek talent. As long as you study hard, you will definitely have the opportunity to enter that door in the future and become General Sun's guests of honor."

Fa Zheng smiled and bowed. "Then I will borrow a good word. I hope that next time I come, we don't have to live here and go directly to the General's Mansion."

The guy returned the gift. "It's certain, it's certain. Judging from the accent, are you from Guanzhong?"

Meng Da was shocked and was about to speak, but Fa Zheng pulled him aside. "Yes, the ears are so good. I thought I was speaking well."

The guy smiled and said, "Although Nanyang is separated from Wuguan Road, it is now like a family. I'm going to tell you, our affairs are a blessed place. Do you know how Du Jun met General Sun back then? He lives here." The guy pointed to the city wall, his face full of pride. "It's close, talent is like treasures, and there is a treasure light. General Sun looked at the top of the city. Oh, there are talented people here, and he sent someone to inquire. When Du Jun came back, he wore an official seal on his waist."

Fa Zheng laughed. A carriage drove over. Fa Zheng reached out to stop it, got into Meng Da and said, "Go to the north of the city to gather in the sunset." He then opened the window, bowed his hand, and said goodbye to the servant. The servant stood at the door, watched the carriage gradually fading away, frowned slightly, feeling something was wrong, but he couldn't tell why, so he shook his head and went in.

Fa Zheng left the city in a carriage. After walking less than ten miles, he asked the coachman to park the car, paid the full amount of the carriage, and said he could not leave. The coachman had no objection. He didn't want to spend the night outside the city, so he hurried back. This is a place where people see off and greet the wind, and there are often carriages waiting for passengers. At this time, he was no exception. He parked two carriages. Fa Zheng asked for a cheaper one, got on the carriage again, and rushed westward.

When the car moved together, Meng Da couldn't help it. "Xiaozhi, why are you doing so in a hurry?"

Fa Zheng moved the cushion, half-lying down, straightened his legs, and hugged his chest with his hands. His expression was much more relaxed. This carriage looked the same as an ordinary rented carriage, but in fact it was a pickup he arranged. Once he got on the carriage, it would be difficult for others to find him again.

"Xinpi is looking for me." Fazheng closed his eyes, and after a moment, he said again: "It's very urgent."

Meng Da was slightly stunned and then became nervous. "When?"

"Two days ago. According to time, it should be after meeting Sun Ce."

"So, we are already on Sun Ce's list?"

"It shouldn't be." Fa Zheng breathed and pondered for a long time. "Only a few people know about us in Nanyang, and they are unlikely to reveal our whereabouts. If Guo Jia had paid attention to us for a long time, Xinpi would not have known it. After thinking about it, I still couldn't think of the reason. I could only send someone to pretend to be me and lure Xinpi away first."

"Then why are you still waiting here for two days?" Meng Da raised his eyebrows slightly, showing a smile that he understood. "Xiaozhi, do you want to join Sun Ce?"

Fa Zheng smiled and refused to comment. Meng Da asked, "Didn't like it?"

"What do you think of Sun Ce?" Fa Zheng asked, "I think you seem to be a little moved."

Meng Da smiled silently and shook his head again. "If I had been three or five years ago, I might have been a lieutenant. Now, it's too late. Instead of going to the martial arts lecture hall with a group of illiterate martial arts men, starting with Du Bo and Junhou, and fighting with others, it's better to follow the envoy Cao. This mission is done, at least a captain." Meng Da looked at Fa Zheng and said, "But you, you don't want to lead the army and fight, you just want to be a counselor. What's the difference between following Cao and following Sun Ce?"

"Since there is no difference, why should I change the party?" Fa Zheng asked, "Do you just want to be an enemy of me?"

"Xiaozhi, you misunderstood, I don't mean that. I mean, if you vote for Sun Ce, you may have a better future than to vote for Cao Envoy."

Fa Zheng shook his head. "There are too many people around Sun Ce, and most of them have become factions. One more me, one less me, and one less me, it doesn't matter. It's hard for me to become his confidant. Cao Envoy is not like that. He only has Xi Zhicai, two advisers. Xi Zhicai is overworked, and it's only five or six years or two or three years. He will definitely become sick after overwork. At that time, I will be the only one who can replace him. Xin Ping..." Fa Zheng smiled and looked down on it. "In fact, it's hard to be my opponent under the reputation. At that time, you are in charge of the army and I am in charge of the plan, and recruit a few village parties, which is enough to stand with the people of Yuzhou and Yizhou."

The two of them smiled knowingly.

The sound of hooves is very special, the sound of cars is very loud, and the carriage is galloping all the way.

——

Guandu.

Yang Biao stood on the remaining earthen turret with his hands behind his back, looking down at the battlefield, and the sound of war drums seemed to sound in his ears.

Not long ago, a big battle occurred here, and the victory and defeat affected the entire situation in Guandong and was also the main cause of his trip. Yuan Shao was defeated, and Sun Ce occupied the Central Plains and occupied the five states alone. The situation of being too big was already established. The court did not dare to expect too much. It just wanted to stabilize Sun Ce, fight for time, make a last fight, and fight for Liangzhou in the west. If God blessed him and win by chance, You and Liang Liang were in hand, the court might have the capital to bargain with Sun Ce.

Although Yang Biao felt that this was no different from gambling, he had to admit that there was no better way for the court to do so.

"Husband, someone is here." Mrs. Yuan pointed to the distance and reminded softly.

Yang Biao followed Mrs. Yuan's hand and saw a group of people slowly walking up the official road, flags waving, and even if it was a few miles away, it could not be ignored. Yang Biao was shocked and looked at Mrs. Yuan, preparing to get her into the car first, and at the same time ordered her guards to leave. Mrs. Yuan was also a little nervous, but calm. "This place is already a region controlled by the Sun family and his son, so no other's army should pass by."

"You mean, Sun Ce will come to welcome me?" Yang Biao couldn't believe it.

"This is not like Sun Ce's trip, so there should be more people."

Yang Biao nodded and agreed with Mrs. Yuan's analysis, but he was not very satisfied with Mrs. Yuan's attitude. Mrs. Yuan had a clear favorable impression when she mentioned Sun Ce, and it seemed that in her eyes, Sun Ce was just as simple as a son-in-law. But he didn't say anything. He knew that the mission was arduous and he needed Mrs. Yuan's help and could not be as angry as a child.

Soon, a knight rushed in front of him, informed each other and showed that they were Yuan Quan's guards to welcome Yang Biao and his wife. After the knight said that, he drove his horse back to report. Yang Biao and Mrs. Yuan exchanged a look of surprise and joy. Yuan Quan came to welcome him, and with so many guards, it can be seen that Sun Ce was not opposed to their arrival.

"Madam, you have to take a closer look when you meet A Quan later. If Sun Ce still has the heart to surrender, this is a great thing."

Mrs. Yuan couldn't help but say to him. "Do you feel ashamed of asking for charity in the court like a beggar?"

Yang Biao's face was red and his ears were speechless.
