Chapter 234: Fuzhong questioned
What kind of medicine Guan Yan sold in the gourd, and he gave up Jizhou without any resistance, which made Yuan Wei very puzzled. However, since he had put Jizhou in his pocket without any effort, Yuan Wei didn't care about Guan Yan's future moves, so he would just fight against it if he saw it.?
So Yuan Wei held a banquet in the Taifu Mansion that night, inviting a group of people to celebrate today's "victory". During the banquet, the party members toasted and toasted Yuan Wei, sighing about Yuan Wei's magical plan. Yuan Wei was very happy. He naturally refused to drink the wine. Han Fu, the new governor of Jizhou, naturally was inevitably congratulated by everyone. The wine was also filled with cups of wine. The Taifu Mansion was full of long-lost drinking, and the lights were brightly lit!
In the mansion of General Cavalry several streets apart, three old men Huangfu Song, Cai Yong and Lu Zhi were also sitting around the study. The three of them looked at Guan Yan with a heavy expression, but said nothing.
Guan Yan understood that these three old ministers were thinking, but he also had a hidden secret!
"Wende!"
After all, Huangfu Song was a soldier, so he was a little anxious and couldn't help but ask:
"Wen De, since Ming and Zhang, the government's affairs became increasingly unstable due to the dispute between foreign relatives and eunuchs. At this time, upright people such as Li Ying, Chen Fan, Dou Wu sacrificed their lives and tried to criticize the eunuchs for their evil deeds with a seven-foot body. However, after the "Party and Corruption Disaster", Li Ying, Chen Fan, Dou Wu and others all went to their deaths with pride. At this time, Yuan Wei, whose father and brother were both the three dukes, naturally became the leader of the party."
Speaking of this, Yuan Huangfu Song sighed: "Hey, although Yuan Wei has the talent of Li Ying and Chen Fan, he has no aura of a party member! Today, the chaos is in chaos, Wende should think about pacifying the people, and be on the court to make peace in the world. Now Wende has handed over Jizhou to the party member. Isn't this afraid that the world will not be in chaos?"
When he was angry, Huangfu Song slapped the table hard, but the sound was not loud, but it scared Guan Yan.
Everyone could see that although the old man Huangfu Song didn't move much, his heart was quite angry.
Guan Yan was also suffering. He dared to give up Jizhou because of Zhang Yan and Chen Deng’s tens of thousands of Black Mountain troops. But to put it bluntly, this is actually a shameful act of Guan Yan. Except for his confidants, Guan Yan really dared not announce this to the world.
Especially the three old men in front of them, although they were all Guan Yan's elders, they were all loyal to the great man. If they knew that Guan Yan had a personal relationship with the Black Mountain bandits and secretly took it for themselves, the three old men would have done it immediately. Moreover, Guan Yan's identity as a Yellow Turban is definitely not exposed at present.
With these concerns, Guan Yan had no choice but to eat coptis chinensis - he had trouble saying it.
When Guan Yan saw Huangfu Song's angry expression, he stood up quickly and couldn't care about anything. He quickly wiped the tea in front of Huangfu Song with his cuffs: "Teacher calms your anger, teacher calms your anger!"
Guan Yan's timid attitude seemed to have some effect. Old Taishan Cai Yong pulled Guan Yan to sit beside him, and asked with a frown: "Wen De, I know that you are not a person who is unscheming. Is there any hidden secrets in today's affairs?"
Guan Yan smiled bitterly, "There is a hidden truth, but I can't tell you!" I have to find a way to fool me!"
"My father-in-law, teacher, Lord Lu!" Guan Yan bowed one by one and said, "Yan's ambition should be his responsibility to support the Han Dynasty, but Yan's strength is still unsatisfactory!"
Cai Yong, a literati, was not good at military affairs. When he heard Guan Yan say this, he hurriedly asked: "Wen De knows his shortcomings, he should also support Jizhou, protect Jingzhao, and form a horn. Now that Wen De abandons Jizhou, wouldn't he cut off his own arm?"
Guan Yanyu Guang looked at Huangfu Song's face and replied quickly: "Yanke drove only a few generals, and there were only tens of thousands of soldiers under his command. It is still acceptable to guard a place, but it is... "
Guan Yan did not continue talking, but turned his attention to Huangfu Song completely.
Huangfu Song led his troops for decades and had a lot of insights into the affairs of the government. Although Guan Yan only said this half, Huangfu Song had already understood Guan Yan's general meaning.
"The five fingers are not as good as the rolling hand, and the ten thousand people are not as good as the one who advances. The one who rises by a hundred people is not as good as the one who reaches all. What you say is this?" Huangfu Song's expression improved a little.
Guan Yan said happily: "This is what the students mean! The teacher is not the students Qu and Yuan Wei and other party members, but just gathering troops in Jingzhao to prevent evil thieves from outside Sili!"
The two old men's questions were answered, and there seemed to be no flaws yet, so Guan Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Lu Zhi, who had been silent, spoke quietly:
"I have heard that Wende has a grudge for his grudges, just like Huangfu Yizhen's grudges, Wende has spared his life and wandered among his relatives and eunuchs just to get peace with his army; and like the revenge of the East County Bujiqingzhou, Wende has been in the west to expedition a great responsibility, but he does not forget to entrust Cao Mengde to take Buji's rank to avenge his grudges. Everyone in the court knows why he gives up Jizhou so easily now, which is really unsolvable!"
A light and floating sentence made the atmosphere in the study tense again.
"This..." Although Lu Zhi didn't know the real reason for killing Bu Ji, Guan Yan had no way to argue under Lu Zhi's analysis, so he could only look at Lu Zhi's slightly turbid eyes in a speech.
"Wen De, but you just want to consolidate your own power, but you ignore the safety of the Han Dynasty?" Huangfu Song was kind and cautious, and devoted himself to the national affairs. When he was conquering Zhang Jiao, Huangfu Song had passed his destiny. Although he was too sleek, his sincerity towards the Han Dynasty had never changed.
When Lu Zhi pointed out that Guan Yan seemed to be self-protection without regard to the great man, Huangfu Song's anger suddenly came up and pointed at Guan Yan and asked.
When facing the enemy, Guan Yan can always turn bad luck into good fortune and come up with ways to deal with danger; but when facing the culprits of these elders, Guan Yan can't think of any way to face them.
As time passed by little by little, beads of sweat as big as soybeans dripped from Guan Yan's nose, Huangfu Song and others' eyes became more and more severe.
There is no other way, so I have to show my "family love and reputation card"! Guan Yan pounced and knelt down at the three of them: "Yan really has difficulties; at least he can't say it now, but Yan pointed to the sky as a vow: There will be no harm to the great man! Please rest assured, when the time is ripe, Yan should carry the thorn to tell him." When all this is the case, what else can the three of them ask? They have to help Guan Yan up and comfort him
Fortunately, Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi, and Cai Yong were not pedantic people, and what Guan Yan said was not without reason, so the three of them could only agree with Guan Yan's statement, and the atmosphere in the study was slowed down. Guan Yan hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, and the master and father-in-law started a hot chat with the three old men.
