After a brief confusion, Xiahou An's first reaction came to his senses: Is there such a good thing?

When he sent the emperor back to Dongjun, Xiahou Anke hinted to Boss Cao more than once, saying that he wanted to go to the place to be a small county magistrate and live a gangster.

However, Boss Cao has always been inaccurate, saying that Xiahou An was quick-witted and had unique insights, and he still had many things to discuss with him.

Boss Cao refused to let anyone go, and Xiahou An had no choice.

Now, Kong Rong is willing to give up Duchang County. This is what Xiahou An never expected. I don’t know which brother was behind the scenes and helped me to do this.

I was interested in it, but I still wanted to refuse: "I thank Kong Beihai for his love, but I am not familiar with Beihai's humanities and geography, so I'm afraid I may not be able to gain something."

However, Kong Rong didn't care about this at all. What he cared about was that as long as Xiahou An could stay for him to guard the house.

At this time, a figure turned out from behind the screen and bowed: "I am not talented, I am willing to assist General Xiahou for the county book."

It's not someone else, it's Ni Heng.

Before this, Kong Rong had invited Ni Heng to join the government many times, and even specially set aside the position of the second-in-command of the county and territory for him. However, Ni Heng said that he did not want to be an official.

Now, he actually offered to work in the county book in the local area. In Kong Rong's opinion, this is simply insignificant!

Fortunately, he had a strong friendship with this little friend. He knew Ni Heng's little thoughts and did not point it out. He even sang a double act tacitly and nodded with a smile: "Okay, okay, with Zhengping assisting Boyang, I believe that he will be able to return the people of Duchang to peace and peace!"

To be honest, Xiahou An was reluctant in his heart.

But Ni Heng looked full of hope, and it seemed that he would refuse directly, which was not good.

What's more, Kong Rong, the boss of Beihai, has spoken, so he can't help but give him such face, right?

Forget it, as long as Ni Heng speaks less in the future and brings less hatred to me.

Thinking of this, Xiahou An hugged Kong Rong and took the job.

Seeing this, Kong Rong breathed a sigh of relief, and now he could rest assured.

Ni Heng also breathed a sigh of relief and finally could follow Xiahou An in justification.

The two looked at each other and laughed as they took what they needed.

After leaving the county magistrate's mansion, Xiahou An, who was strode out, ran into Taishi Ci who was coming towards him while he was down the steps.

"What's wrong with Ziyi coming to the county government?"

Xiahou settled down and asked with greetings.

Taishici did not hide this and answered seriously: "I came to help me on my mother's order, but now the siege of Beihai has been lifted. Yangzhou Governor Liu Yao had a book called before, so I should have ordered to go to Yangzhou..."

Speaking of this, Xiahou An remembered that there seemed to be such a thing in history. Later, Sun Ce led his army to attack Qu'a. Taishici, who was under Liu Yao, fought with an unknown soldier in Shenting and his thirteen generals. Later, Liu Yao was defeated and fled. Taishici was captured by Sun Ce in Jing County and surrendered to the Eastern Wu.

Since we know the subsequent plot development, now that the powerful general is ahead, Xiahou An will never let history repeat itself.

He looked at Taishi Ci and said in a sincere tone: "Ziyi, the capital of Changcheng is broken. I am ordered by Kong Beihai to settle refugees. It is impossible to have no capable generals around you. Come with me!"

Taishi Ci was moved, but he didn't agree. He was a principled person and shook his head and refused: "Boyang is joking. There are many capable people under your command, and now they are appreciated by Kong Beihai. How can I be missing me?"

Xiahou An was unwilling to give up and wanted to say it again. Taishi Ci said first: "Boyang is kind, I have already understood it. Since I agreed to the governor of Yangzhou Liu Yao before, I must go to Yangzhou. How can a real man break his trust?"

Xiahou An was speechless for a moment.

Could it be that I would watch Taishi Ci lean into someone else's arms like this?

Xiahou An was unwilling to accept it.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and there was a!

"Ziyi, it's not that I want to keep you, but that there is a secret decree from the emperor, asking you to serve the court."

Xiahou An also said casually that he had lies. He made up the reasons in his mind and told Taishi Ci that it was a secret edict I received last night. As a result, he was busy discussing matters with Kong Rong today, so he forgot about this matter. He didn't remember it until now.

Then, Xiahou An said, loyalty comes first and righteousness comes later, and all state affairs should be the priority!

"Don't mess with me with Boyang."

Taishici obviously didn't believe it. He had been hiding in Liaodong for many years. How could the emperor know me?

However, Xiahou An looked confident: "If you don't believe me, come with me, and I'll show you immediately!"

With a doubt, Taishi Ci followed Xiahou An.

When he returned to his residence, Xiahou An asked Taishi Ci to rest in the hall first, and he went to get a secret decree.

Taishici had no objection and nodded to respond.

Outside the hall, Xiahou An invited Xu Chu and told him to go and compete with Taishi Ci so that he could buy time for himself.

Xu Chu never shook his head when it came to what Xiahou An told him.

All explanations are made.

Back in the study, Xiahou An closed the door tightly, then quickly walked to the desk, spreading the two-foot-long rolls of silk on the table.

The moment he made a decision, he thought of a countermeasure and wanted to create a fake imperial edict.

Now that the imperial power is declining, and this is not a big deal, there is no need to worry that anyone will pursue it.

When I was in Chang'an before, Xiahou An was bored and learned calligraphy from Cai Yong for a while. He was so proud that he could not say that his copying and copying techniques reached the peak. In short, he was still a bit of a good level. He didn't expect it to come in handy today.

So, after some in his heart, Xiahou An picked up his pen and started writing quickly.

The pen tip dipped ink wanders on the cloth, light and elegant, giving the artistic conception of painting spring trees and autumn frost in "Tang Bohu Points Autumn Fragrance".

After finishing it in one go, Xiahou An took out the jade seal, chanted and printed it heavily on the cloth with words on the desk.

After checking it and confirming that there was no flaw, Xiahou An put away the jade seal, picked up the "secret edict" and pushed the door out.

In the courtyard, Xu Chu and Taishi Cizheng fought hard.

In terms of strength, Xu Chu is much stronger; in terms of skills and agility, Taishi Ci is even better.

The two sides fought back and forth for more than a hundred rounds, but they still failed to decide the outcome.

Seeing Xiahou An come out, Taishi Ci stopped and took the initiative to retreat.

Xu Chu wanted to go back again, but was stopped by Xiahou An.

The secret edict in his hand was handed over, and Taishici took it with respect, then opened it and browsed it carefully, and his words were touching.

Suddenly, Taishi Ci said "Huh" in surprise.

In response to this, Xiahou An's heart was in a panic. Could it be that he really discovered the flaw?

"Ziyi, what's wrong?" Xiahouan asked as calmly as possible.

Taishici pointed to some places on the cloth, with a little suspicion: "Why do these ink marks seem to be dry?"

I was in a hurry and forgot to dry it for a while!

Xiahou An cursed himself secretly, but he was not panicked. This was not a big deal, so he blew up: "Hey, the climate here in Beihai is like this. The weather caused by the weather to relapse, which is inevitable!"

With his heart in his arms, Xiahou An quickly pulled Taishici's attention away: "Look carefully, can this emperor's seal be fake?"

Taishici carefully distinguished.

When he was young, he served as a minister in the county and naturally recognized the seal of the emperor.

Looking at the eight big words "After receiving the order from heaven, I will live forever" written by Taishi Ci, he believed it without doubt.

"Since there is a sage of the Emperor's Holy Decree, I should follow it."

Taishi Ci made up his mind, and as for Liu Yao, he had to write a letter to explain the whole story.

Xiahou An smiled in his heart and shouted at the same time.

Get it done!
