Chapter 49: Yuan Shao's Purpose
"Congratulations to Master Chen on your beautiful wife." In the hall, as Yuan Shao finished speaking, a group of people began to clasp their fists towards Chen Mo.
Chen Mo looked at everyone and smiled bitterly in his heart, he had fallen into a trap!
Yuan Shao didn't make any requests. He gave banquets, flattered him, and finally gave him a woman. Everything tonight was full of weirdness. With Yuan Shao's current status and reputation, even if he had something to rely on, Cao Cao could
Chen Mo would not refuse the relationship. He was so flattering and gifted a beautiful woman, and the gift was so natural. What Yuan Shao asked for might not be easy.
Chen Mo is self-aware. He probably only has this little military power that Yuan Shao can use with him. Of course, in such a big scene, Yuan Shao may not want the military power in his hands, but... Bao Hong!?
Chen Mo made many speculations in a short period of time. I am afraid that with the little power he has now, he may not be able to impress Yuan Shao, let alone such a big scene. It is most likely that Yuan Shao has already begun to think about it on his first day as the captain of the auxiliary army.
Remove Bao Hong's military power.
But based on Bao Hong's attitude towards Yuan Shao, Chen Mo believed that without Yuan Shao even having to speak, Bao Hong would probably give up his military power, so why would he go through all the trouble? In the end, it would fall on him?
Of course, it can also be said that Chen Mo is overthinking, because according to the rules of Chunnuang Pavilion mentioned by Yuan Shao before, Yun Si should indeed follow him. Judging from Cao Cao's attitude, it is obvious that this rule is not fake, but why didn't he say it before, but now?
To say?
These thoughts were quite long, but in Chen Mo's mind, they only flashed by. Listening to the congratulations around him, Chen Mo turned his head and looked to his side, bowing his head slightly. He didn't dare to speak, but he couldn't help but look at himself.
Yun Si's heart softened for no reason, but he immediately put aside the sudden emotion.
Wenrouxiang is indeed the Tomb of Heroes!
Taking a deep breath, Chen Mo reached out and took Yun Si's little hand while Yun Si looked at her with a bit of fear in surprise. Chen Mo bowed slightly to Yuan Shao and said, "In that case, I would like to thank you for your kindness.
I owe you a debt of gratitude to Mr. Yuan, and I will repay you generously if there is an opportunity in the future."
This was a favor to Yuan Shao, he accepted it, and if Yuan Shao asked for anything, he would repay it.
Of course, even if it were true, it would be impossible to say it at this time.
Yuan Shao didn't have any superfluous expression, he just laughed and said, "I'll prepare a generous gift for you tomorrow, even if it's a dowry for Yun Si."
"Thank you, Master!" Yun Si quickly bowed to Yuan Shao.
"There is no need to be polite, and there is no need to call me the master of the family in the future." Yuan Shao shook his head and said with a smile: "I will send your body and wedges together tomorrow, and you will be freed from your lowly status."
The next banquet was a feast for the guests and host. This time, Chen Mo didn't get drunk or stay overnight. He took Yun Si directly back to Zang Mansion.
…
"Sir, who is this sister?" Juan'er looked at Yun Si with a somewhat wary and unkind look.
"My concubine." Chen Mo simply washed his face to make his mind clearer.
"Concubine?" Juan'er looked at Chen Mo in disbelief, how could he bring a concubine directly.
"Well, you go out first and don't let anyone get close." Chen Mo nodded, not wanting to explain anything, and there was no need to explain.
"Here~" Juaner's mood became obviously depressed, she bowed slightly and went out.
"I am waiting for you to go to bed?" Yun Si asked softly as Chen Mo looked at her without blushing.
"There's no rush." Chen Mo shook his head, knelt down on the straw mat, pointed to the position opposite, looked at Yun Si and said, "There are some things I want to ask."
"Husband, please speak." Yun Si followed the words and knelt down opposite Chen Mo.
Chen Mo stared at her eyes carefully and said nothing. It was not until Yun Si felt uncomfortable looking at her that he suddenly said: "What are your orders, Mr. Yuan?"
"?" Yun Si looked at Chen Mo blankly, then shook his head.
"Tell your rules backwards. You don't have to memorize them backwards. Just make them roughly the same." Chen Mo said again.
Yun Si was not stupid, and he also reacted. He felt a little heartbroken, nodded, thought about it carefully, and recounted the rules he knew.
Is it true?
Chen Mo frowned.
"Young master, do you still have any doubts?" Yun Siqiang said with a smile.
Chen Mo nodded and said, "What did Mr. Yuan say to you before the banquet tonight?"
"I just said that a happy event will be fulfilled for me today. This matter was not said by Mr. Yuan, but by the master of the pavilion." Yun Si shook his head and said: "If you don't believe me, I am willing to leave and will not disturb your purity again."
"It is true that what I did was ridiculous. It's just that what happened tonight is quite strange. Since you don't know, wait until someone from the Yuan Mansion comes to know tomorrow." Chen Mo shook his head and said: "It's late at night, you should go and rest first.
, Juaner.”
"The slave is here!" Juan'er, who had been waiting outside the door, pushed open the door and walked in. Looking at the two neatly dressed people, she was happy for no reason: "Master, what are your orders?"
"It's inexplicable, what's the fun? Yun Si will be my concubine from now on. During my stay in Luoyang, the president will live here. Please arrange a wing room for her, not too far away from my room." Chen Mo frowned and looked at it.
Juaner said.
"Here!" Juan'er saluted, smiled at Yun Si and said, "Sister, come with me."
"Thank you." Yun Si saluted Chen Mo and left with Juan'er.
There was nothing to say all night, but early the next morning, the steward of the Zang Mansion came to report the arrival of the Yuan Mansion.
"Please." Chen Mo got up and came to the main hall. He saw an acquaintance sitting in the hall. Seeing Chen Mo coming over, he smiled and said: "It seems that Ziyuan values Mr. Chen very much, and actually donated this house to him.
Young Master."
"It's just a temporary stay. The house here still belongs to my mentor." Chen Mo came to the main seat and knelt down, looked at He Yong in front of him and said: "But I didn't know that Lord Benchu actually asked Mr. Boqiu to come over. If I had known this, I should have
It’s better to go out and greet him.”
"I came here this time because I took the initiative to ask Ben Chu to do it for me." He Yong shook his head and said with a smile: "First of all, although Mr. Chen is young, he only learned virtues in Taiyuan College. I am afraid that only Mr. Yang can compare with him.
, Yong wanted to make acquaintance, but he came unexpectedly, I hope you won’t be surprised.”
"Mr. Boqiu is willing to be friends with me, but he is willing to do so. How dare you blame him?" Chen Mo waved his hand, and put down his guard against Yun Si, and said to He Yong: "Since there is one, there must be two."
"Master, what do you think of Bao Hong?" He Yong asked.
"Mo and General Bao have only known each other for a day, and Mo is directly under General Bao. It is not the behavior of a gentleman to make arrogant comments about superior officials." Chen Mo shook his head and said.
"Then do you know how Benchu judged him?" He Yong asked.
"I don't know." Chen Mo smiled and added in his heart: I don't want to know either.
"With great ambition and talent, he flatters his superiors and bullies his subordinates." He Yong sighed and said, "This time His Majesty established a new army and set up eight schools, but it is really a pity that such important tasks are handed over to this person."
"Mr. Boqiu, I'm just a military prince. I can't comment on the matter of being a superior."
"Don't underestimate yourself. As far as I know, when Qian Shuo first entered the camp and slandered His Majesty, he treated you with contempt because of your age. However, in recent days, Qian Shuo has treated you with contempt.
I highly recommend you and say that you are good at running the army. Although you are young, you will be a good general of our great Han Dynasty in the future." He Yong sighed: "I can make the eunuch change his words like this. With the wealth of the son's family, it is difficult to make him change his words.
Your Majesty attaches great importance to the new army, so Yong guessed that the young master must have something extraordinary, and in addition to the mediocre performance of the rest of the Xiyuan generals this time, the eunuch praised you so much."
In other words, he has entered the emperor's sight?
"Mo is just doing his duty as a general. I don't dare to say anything else." Chen Mo said modestly: "Mr. Boqiu has something to say, so you might as well say it clearly."
He Yong looked at Chen Mo for a few times, nodded and smiled: "No wonder Cao Mengde admires you so much. With such a character, you will definitely achieve great things in the future."
Chen Mo just thought he had farted. In Luoyang, others were not afraid of overt and covert attacks. What he was most afraid of was being praised and killed. This incident about Yun Si was a lesson for Chen Mo. He will go out for banquets in the future.
This kind of trick still needs to be guarded against. After sending He Yong away later, he was going to ask Yun Si carefully about the rules of Chun Nuan Pavilion.
"Young master, do you know how the situation in the court is going now?" He Yong smiled and said without saying anything: "If you continue to shirk, you will be looking down on Yong."
"Dare not." Chen Mo shook his head, thought for a while and said: "The eunuchs' interference in politics has caused chaos in the world. Only the Grand Lieutenant Yuan Gong and the General are fighting for a place in the court as scholars, but now they can only survive.
, but after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, His Majesty lifted the party ban, and the power of our scholars has been greatly improved. We need to take refuge in the general to avoid being persecuted by the eunuchs."
"He Jin is just a butcher, how can he protect us?" He Yong snorted coldly, his words full of disdain for He Jin.
He Jin's background as a butcher, at least of He Jin's generation, is difficult to be recognized by scholars. If the He family could be in power for three generations and maintain a good reputation, it might be considered a noble family, but at the moment, it is not recognized.
"But he holds the military power in the world, so... Duke Ben Chu wants the military power in my or Bao Hong's hands?" Chen Mo frowned.
"No, the new army was established by Your Majesty and is loyal to Your Majesty. The original intention is that we scholars should unite as one. Only in this way can we fight with the eunuchs without having military power in our hands.
Then take shelter under the butcher’s door.”
"But why don't you look for Bao Hong in this matter?" Chen Mo frowned and said, "In my opinion, Bao Hong is quite willing to make friends with Benchu Gong?"
"To hold military power, you also need a good general. Do you think Bao Hong is a good general?" He Yong asked rhetorically.
"I don't know." Chen Mo shook his head. Although Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and He Yong in front of him all expressed their disdain for Bao Hong, Chen Mo needs to see things in person before he can judge the matter. He has never seen Bao Hong leading troops.
It's hard to evaluate. If you measure talent by character, Chen Mo thinks this idea is not smart.
"The original intention is that when you replace this person, the three schools of Zuojun, Dianjun and Xiajun will no longer be afraid of Qian Shuo in terms of military power. We can check and balance both sides in Luoyang." He Yong looked at Chen Mo.
"Mo is young, I'm afraid..." Chen Mo shook his head. At his age, it would be difficult for him to rise to the top.
"There is a rebellion in Gepo, Runan. We will help His Majesty send Bao Hong's troops to quell the rebellion. You don't need to harm him. When the time comes, someone will truthfully report to Your Majesty what you two have done. As for whether we can win this
The power of the school depends on the son's methods." He Yong looked at Chen Mo and said.
"Tell this Lord Benchu for me. Thank you so much for your love. I promise to do my best." Chen Mo nodded, seemingly helping himself, but after this incident, he had the mark of the Yuan family on him, but after
