Three Kingdoms King of the North

Back in the mansion, Han Zhan took him to the house where Cai Yan lived.Seeing Han Zhan bring a stranger in, Cai Yan couldn't help being a little bit stunned, so let alone outsiders, even the housekeeper Patch rarely enters this room.But she thought that since Han Zhan was able to bring this person in, he must be someone with a history.

After saluting to Han Zhan, Cai Yan looked at Jushou and asked curiously, "Tinghou, what is the name of this gentleman?"

Han Zhan laughed, and said to Cai Yan: "Zhaoji, I will introduce you to this Marquis. This is Jizhou's new supervisor, General Fenwei, Ju Shou Gong and Ju Shou."

"It turned out to be Mr. Gonghe." When Cai Yan heard that the person in front of him was the well-known Ju Shou in Jizhou, he couldn't help being surprised, and hurriedly bowed down: "Zhaoji has met Mr. Ju!"

Ju Shou hurriedly returned the gift: "Shou is being polite here!"

"Zhao Ji, Mr. Ju is not an outsider, so you don't have to be polite." After Han Zhan called Ju Shou to sit down, he said to Cai Yan, "Can Zhao Ji play the piano for us?"

With a promise, Cai Yan asked the maid to bring out the Jiaoweiqin, placed it on a few tables, and lit another burner of sandalwood. Just now, she sat upright, plucked the strings, and began to sing softly for Han Zhan and Jushou.

The end of the song.Ju Shou repeatedly applauded, and then asked: "I don't know if this song is written down by Cai Shizhong during the piano exercises?"

"Mr. Ju is really knowledgeable and talented," Cai Yanqiao said with a smile, "That's right, this song is Hejian Miscellaneous Song in the Qin Exercises written by my father."

Although it was the first time for Jushou and Cai Yan to meet, they had a common topic, so they talked very speculatively, so that Han Zhan, who was sitting by the side, was ignored by them and didn't notice it.Ju Shou said with emotion: "Shou has always admired Cai Shizhong's name for a long time, but it is a pity that he has never been able to meet him. It is really regrettable."

"Ju Jianjun, don't worry," Han Zhan, who was almost drowsy, became energetic when he heard Ju Shou's words. He interrupted and said, "If you want to see Cai Shizhong, this Marquis can." Arrange for you."

When Cai Yan and Jushou heard what Han Zhan said, they immediately became interested.Ju Shou couldn't wait to ask: "Tinghou, how can I meet Cai Shizhong?" Although Cai Yan didn't speak, his beautiful eyes stayed on Han Zhan, waiting patiently for his answer.

Han Zhan smiled lightly, and said, "Ju Supervisor Army, according to my analysis, next spring, the ministers of the court will plan to get rid of Dong Bandit, and there will be chaos in the court. Cai Shizhong is highly regarded by Dong Bandit, and he is bound to be killed If you belong to Dong's gang, you will inevitably be killed."

After hearing Han Zhan's words, Ju Shou was taken aback for a moment, and then said disapprovingly: "The current courtiers are not looking up to Dong Bandit. Even if Dong Bandit is punished and his party is liquidated, Cai Shizhong will be safe."

"Once Dong thief dies, the other courtiers may be safe and sound." Han Zhan sighed and said, "But Cai Shizhong was promoted by Dong thief many times, and he was promoted three times in one day, which shows the level of trust. You Tell me, in his situation, will the courtiers include him in Dong Thief's party?"

Jushou knew that Han Zhan told him that there must be something important to deliver to him, so after a long silence, he asked, "What is Marquis Ting going to do?"

When Cai Yan heard the two talking about her father, her heart couldn't help but raise her throat.She didn't dare to interrupt their conversation, but anxiously waited for Han Zhan's next arrangement.

"I'm going to ask Zhaoji to write a letter." Han Zhan first threw a smiley face at the nervous Cai Yan, then turned to Ju Shou and said, "Please bring the letter to Chang'an to meet Cai Shizhong, and ask him to come to Jizhou as soon as possible." , from the disaster of the fish in the pond."

Before accepting Han Zhan's task, Ju Shou asked solemnly: "Tinghou, do you really think that the courtiers will be able to get rid of Dong thief in the spring of the coming year?"

"That's right, I think so." Han Zhan replied with a solemn expression: "If you do many injustices, you will kill yourself. Bandit Dong has caused anger and resentment. He has already betrayed his relatives. His demise is only a matter of time."

After thinking for a while, Jushou finally nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then I will go to Chang'an for Tinghou, and try to bring Cai Shizhong to Jizhou." Seeing that Jushou was willing to go to Chang'an, Cai Yan picked him up When my father arrived in Jizhou, his eyes turned red and tears almost fell down.

"Ju Supervisor Army, Ben Hou has something to say." Seeing Ju Shou standing up and about to leave, Han Zhan quickly stopped him: "When Ben Hou is sitting in the land of the four states, he wants to welcome the emperor to Yecheng. Please also invite Ju Jian When the army arrives in Chang'an this time, try to find a way to test the tone of the emperor."

"Tinghou, don't worry." When he was at Ju's house, although Han Zhan had said that he would welcome the emperor to Yecheng, Jushou didn't take it to heart at all. He thought it was just to win over himself, so he said it casually.Hearing it now, the feeling in his heart was different.He hastily bowed to Han Zhan, "Deding will do our best to persuade the emperor to come to Yecheng."

After Han Zhan waited for Ju Shou to express his attitude, he smiled and said to Cai Yan: "Zhao Ji, Mr. Ju will leave for Chang'an in a few days, you should write a letter to Cai Shizhong as soon as possible and let him take it to Chang'an."

Cai Yan got up quickly and said, "Mr. Ju, please wait here for a while, and Zhao Ji can go write a letter to father."

Han Zhan watched Cai Yan walk into the back room, restrained his smile, and said to Ju Shou: "Ju Supervisor Army, the Minister of the court wants to get rid of Dong Bandit, but Dong Bandit has soldiers, and there is a fierce general Lu Bu guarding you. This time you After arriving in Chang'an, I hope you can help the courtiers."

"Tinghou," Jushou asked in a daze, "Shou has nothing to worry about in Chang'an, how can I wish the courtiers a helping hand?"

"Dong Bandit and his adopted son Lu Bu are both lustful. If you want to get rid of Dong Bandit, you can only use beauty tricks." Seeing that there is an opportunity to change history, Han Zhan will not let it go easily. He said to Jushou in a loud voice: "According to the detailed report, the one who wants to get rid of Dong thief most among the ministers in the court is Situ Wangyun. There is a singer Diaochan in his family. Lu Bu. This Marquis now has a series of schemes, you persuade Wang Yun to marry Diao Chan to Lu Bu first, and then give it to Dong Zhuo; let Diao Chan take advantage of it, spy on his father and son, and order Bu to kill Zhuo, so as to eliminate the worst evil."

Hearing Han Zhan's chain plan, Ju Shou's eyes widened in surprise: "Tinghou, can this plan really kill Dong thief?"

Han Zhan nodded slightly, and said to Ju Shou: "Don't worry about the Ju Supervisor, I estimate that this plan will work. In order not to arouse others' suspicion, when you go to Chang'an, you can bring more gold, silver and jewelry, and make friends with Dong Bandit." Good ministers in the court, let them speak a few words for you in front of the emperor, so that you can have the opportunity to meet the emperor."

After Jushou waited for Han Zhan to finish speaking, he stood up and saluted him again: "Don't worry, Tinghou, Shushou will not disgrace his mission, and will offer a series of tricks to Wang Situ to the emperor and Xijing."

Han Zhan got up to support Jushou, and said to him with a smile, "on the day Jugong and Gongcheng come back, I will personally lead Jizhou military officials out of the city ten miles to meet him!"

Chapter 176

After resting at home for two days, Jushou set off for Chang'an with more than a dozen carts of gold, silver and jewels.In order to ensure his safety, Han Zhan ordered Xia Houlan, who had not officially served as the captain of Mojin, to go with him with two hundred cavalry.

A group of people walked for a month against the wind and snow on the road, and finally arrived in Chang'an.

The convoy was stopped by the soldiers defending the city at the city gate.Du Bo, who led the team, carefully looked at the convoy coming from afar, and asked warily, "Where do you come from?"

Mo Quan, the prison guard who accompanied Jushou on the mission, was quite sophisticated, got out of the car, walked up to Du Bo, and bowed his hands to him, "Master Hui Jun, we are from Jizhou, and we made a special trip to Chang'an to visit Dong Xiangguo."

Knowing that these people came to visit Dong Zhuo, Du Bo showed a disappointed expression, because this way, he would have one less reason to blackmail him.But he didn't let go immediately, but looked at Xia Houlan who was riding beside Jushou's chariot, and said: "This is an important place in the capital, how can you let foreign soldiers and horses enter the city casually. So, you keep your weapons, and I will let you go." Enter the city!"

Seeing a little uncle, Xia Houlan wanted her group to put down their weapons, and the blood rushed to her head. Just as she was about to rush up to reason with the other party, she heard Ju Shou who was sitting in the carriage whispering Said: "Lieutenant Xiahou must not be reckless, let Mo Quan handle this matter."

Before departure, Han Zhan repeatedly told Xia Houlan that this trip must follow Jushou's arrangement.So when he heard what Jushou said, he quickly agreed and continued to stand where he was.

When Mo Quan heard Du Bo say that he could only enter the city by laying down his weapons, he quickly smiled and said, "Master, we are all accompanied by soldiers and horses from the imperial court. Could it be that we will rebel in the capital? Please be more accommodating. "As he spoke, he stuffed a piece of gold cake into Dubo's hand calmly.

Du Bo noticed that the other party stuffed him with a cold thing, looked down and saw that it was actually a piece of gold cake, and immediately smiled.He said to Mo Quan: "Brother, since you are soldiers and horses of the imperial court, I will not let you keep your weapons. Go to the city quickly." After finishing speaking, he stepped aside and stood at the door The subordinates at the side shouted loudly, "Let go!"

A group of people entered the city, Xia Houlan asked Jushou for instructions: "Supervisor, I don't know where we are going next?"

Ju Shou opened the curtain and said: "Look for a post station to stay, have a good rest for one night, and make plans tomorrow!"

Xia Houlan found the post house, settled the troops and horses and the convoy, and then went to Jushou's room, and reported to him: "Qi reported to the supervising army, all the troops and horses have been arranged."

Ju Shou nodded after hearing this, and said to Xia Houlan: "Captain Xia Hou has been exhausted all the way, so go back and rest first. I plan to go out to visit friends later, and you send two people to carry gifts."

"Supervisor." Hearing that Jushou was going out to visit friends and only brought two or three followers, Xia Houlan couldn't help becoming nervous: "Before leaving, my lord asked me to ensure the safety of the supervising army. Only take two or three people with you when you go out. Maybe something is wrong?"

"There's nothing wrong with it." Ju Shou waved his hand and said, "The friend I'm going to visit was ordered by Marquis Ting himself. Because it's a confidential matter, the fewer people who know about it, the better."

Hearing what Jushou said, Xia Houlan could only reluctantly agree, then turned and left the room to pick two smart and capable subordinates to accompany Jushou to visit friends.

After Jushou inquired about the location of Wang Yun's mansion from the officials, he left the station and headed for Situ's mansion with only Mo Quan and two soldiers carrying gifts.

Not long after walking, they came to the outside of a house with two big stone lions at the door.Seeing that the door was closed tightly, Jushou asked Mo Quan to come forward and call for the door.Mo Quan stepped forward and slapped the door hard a few times, and someone opened the door a crack from the inside.He looked at the stranger knocking on the door outside, and asked: "Who are you, who dare to yell outside Situ's mansion, be careful, I will tie you up and send you to the government for conviction!"

Mo Quan used to be a prison guard, and he was flattered by others all day long, so how could he ever experience such birdishness.Seeing that it was a young man who was speaking, he couldn't help being furious. He pointed at the other party and said angrily, "You dog with low eyesight, didn't you see that my lord is here?"

The young concierge glanced outside and saw that the official in black official uniform standing at the bottom of the steps was a face he had never seen before, so he sneered and said, "A small official who came out of nowhere dare Come to Situ's mansion to play wild, and leave quickly, or I will have you tied up and sent to the government."

Jushou, who was standing behind, saw that the concierge was a little aggressive, and was afraid that Mo Quan would attack him if he disagreed with him, so he hurriedly stepped forward to salute him, and said politely to him: "Little brother, please go in and inform Situ Your Excellency, just say that the Jizhou Superintendent Ju grants Ju Gong and seeks an audience!"

Although the concierge is young, he actually knows Jushou's name.After hearing that the person in front of him was Jushou, his attitude immediately became humble: "It turns out that Mr. Gonghe is here, please forgive the villain for being rude just now. Please wait here for a while, sir. The villain will go in and report to Sir Situ. "

After speaking, he closed the door, and Jushou and Mo Quan, who were standing outside the door, heard footsteps gradually going away.Mo Quan turned his head to look at Jushou, and said flatteringly: "Mr. is still very famous. Just now this kid looked down on others, but after hearing Mr.'s name, his attitude changed immediately."

The two were talking when they heard footsteps coming from far to near outside the door.Soon the door opened, and the first person who appeared at the door was an old man in his fifties with a long gray beard and a black official uniform, while the porter stood respectfully two or three steps behind him. Location.

After looking Jushou up and down, the old man showed a pleasant expression on his face: "Oh, it really is a public marriage. I heard the concierge talk about it just now, and the old man thought he was cheating on me."

"Mr. Zishi," Jushou hurriedly bowed to the other party and saluted, "Your junior, Jushou, is being polite!"

"You don't need to be polite." Wang Yun quickly reached out to support Ju Shou, and said enthusiastically, "This is not a place to talk, come in quickly!"
