Chapter 296 Mingzhu (marked on 1 day ticket, plus 2K)

The crescent moon is like a string, and the stars are dotted.

The summer night was refreshing, as a rush of steps sounded at the palace gate, not long after, Yuan Shu got up from the bedroom, fatigued after a hangover, changed into casual clothes and came to the main hall.

Glancing at Xu Yi and Li Ren who were kneeling in front of him, Yuan Shu sat at the head seat, took a sip of refreshing soup, and then asked, "How about Ji Ling leading you to talk to Wang Zheng today?"

After listening to the two people's reports, Yuan Shu pondered for a while, then put on his clothes and got up, pacing in the dim light.

In the silence where a needle can be heard, there is only the clear sound of stepping on the smooth floor tiles. Xu and Li didn't even dare to lift their heads.

After a while, Yuan Shu stopped in his tracks, looked at the two of them again, chuckled lightly, and said suddenly, "You are all the Marquis' favorite generals, and you have come to report late at night, which shows your loyalty."

"What are you still kneeling on, get up and talk."

"Here."

After the two got up, Yuan Shu asked again: "Then Wang Zheng said that he formed an alliance with me to fight against Yuan Cao, how did Wang Zheng look?"

"Based on the two of you, are his words believable?"

"My lord." Li Ren and Xu Yi looked at each other for a while, paused, took a peek at Yuan Shu's expression, and said, "General Yimo, when Wang Zheng said this, his expression was solemn and sincere, which really showed his sincerity."

"Oh?" Yuan Shu's expression was calm, showing no signs of happiness or anger. He just nodded and signaled Li Ren to continue.

Seeing this, Li Ren became bolder, and said again: "Before Ji Ling invited Wang Zheng to a banquet today, this son had declined many invitations from the officials in the city. In the future, it will be a bit of a measure. If it is not for Ji Ling Ling said in advance that he had reported to the lord, I am afraid that his face would not be sold."

"Although this son is young, he is considered sensible."

Yuan Shu looked at Li Ren with a half-smile, but didn't bother to explain.

Although Wang Zheng did not participate in other people's invitations, but every time a guest came to the door, he would be rewarded with a gift. Did he know that there were no correspondence or private connections?

It would be too ridiculous to infer this son's sincerity from this.

One must know that he, Yuan Gonglu, is a veteran of this kind of thing, the senior among his seniors, when he set fire to the Nine Dragon Gate and the East and West Palaces of the South Palace in the past, and coerced the ten permanent servants to abandon the palace and flee, it was precisely because of his private alliance with Wu Kuang that they worked together. Can do it.

But before the launch, in the eyes of others, he and Wu Kuang had never had any close contacts.

"However, there is nothing unusual about Wang Zheng." At this time, Xu Yi who was on the side added: "Ji Ling's words today are inappropriate."

"How?" Yuan Shu asked, startled.

After listening to the two people's words, Yuan Shu was a little surprised. This is different from what Yan Xiang told Ji Ling before. The key point is that Ji Ling knew Xu Yi and Li Ren was by his side. Xun's behavior may also fall into his ears, but why do he say that?

After a little thought, Yuan Shu suddenly said, "It seems that Fu Yi is indeed dissatisfied early."

"My lord is saying that Ji Ling treats Zhao Xun"

"No and no." Yuan Shu waved his hand and said, "Zhao Xun was the Marquis's servant in his early years. His loyalty is sure enough, but he can do it, but he shouldn't take it seriously. Ji Ling knows this well, and he is proud Ao, how can you compare with this kind?"

"What did Wang Zheng say when he was the first general under the Marquis' tent?" Yuan Shu glanced at the two of them, but did not continue to explain, and said softly, "You have worked hard tonight, it's getting late, go back and rest."

The two bowed and retreated, Yuan Shu called them back, thought for a while and asked, "Has there been any changes in the Xuzhou army and horses in the city camp?"

"Everything is fine."

Yuan Shu didn't speak anymore, and when the figures of the two disappeared, he walked out of the hall and turned his gaze to the night sky.The buildings are layer upon layer, and there is silence in the night.

He suddenly smiled softly, very good.

Ji Ling has improved, and knows how to use other people's mouths to say unspeakable words.

It's still a pun.

It is both a catharsis and a reminder.

The two walked out of the palace gate and were about to part ways and go back to their respective homes. Li Ren was just about to get on his horse, but suddenly stopped, turned around immediately, and called Xu Yi first.

"Old Xu, wait a minute." He led the horse and stopped, grabbing Xu Yi who was on the saddle.

"Brother Li, what's the matter." Xu Yi was full of thoughts of going home and sleeping with Concubine Ji in his arms. When he saw the other party holding him back, he frowned immediately: "What else is there?"

"Let's find a place to talk." Li Ren smiled flatteringly, and complimented: "You have read more books than me, and you have better knowledge. You are a little puzzled and want to ask for advice."

After arriving at a secluded corner, Li Ren looked around first, and then asked in a low voice: "Old Xu, have you ever noticed the change of the lord these days?"

"My lord?" Xu Yi was startled for a moment, and then surprised: "As ministers, it's not good for us to talk about the lord behind our backs."

"Brother Li, this is a violation of the righteousness of the monarch and ministers."

"Ah, no, no." Li Ren was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat when he heard this, and quickly waved his hands to explain: "It is precisely because I am a courtier that I have seen how my lord's words and deeds have changed these days, so I want to speculate." , so that you can understand what you mean. "

"Change?" Xu Yi frowned first, "You mean?"

"My lord seems to be better than before." After thinking for a long time, Li Ren could barely think of a word: "Condescension?"

"You said that," Xu Yi laughed, "Isn't this a good thing?"

"But..." Li Ren rubbed his head, "I'm still used to my lord's previous behavior, but suddenly being so kind makes me a little uneasy."

"Hey, my lord is not just for you." Xu Yi shook his head, thought for a while, and patiently explained: "When Emperor Gao was a citizen, he was greedy for money and lustful, and later he captured Xianyang. I heard that Dasheng is afraid, do you remember what the evaluation is?"

"This..." Li Ren thought about it for a while, and said unsurely, "Isn't ambition small?"

"Not bad!"

"My lord has great ambitions now." Xu Yi nodded, strode directly onto his horse, turned his head to Li Ren and said solemnly when he was at the top, "Keep your arrogance, be afraid of underestimating your talents, and follow the sages of Duke Zhou, great things can be accomplished!"

"Once upon a time, the Duke of Zhou once said, if you wash your hair three times, spit out your food three times, and wait for a scholar, you are afraid of losing a sage in the world. You should be careful not to be proud of your country."

(King Wu passed away, and King Cheng was still in his infancy. The Duke of Zhou was afraid that people in the world would betray the court when they heard that King Wu was dead, so he ascended the throne to take care of the government affairs and preside over the state power for King Cheng. Uncle Guan and his brothers were in the middle of the country. Spreading rumors said: "The Duke of Zhou will be unfavorable to King Cheng." The Duke of Zhou told Tai Gongwang: "The reason why I do not avoid suspicion and act as an agent of state affairs is that I am afraid that the people in the world will betray the Zhou family. explain.

The three former kings have worked hard for the world's career for a long time, and now they have just succeeded.King Wu died early, and King Cheng was young. I did this only to complete the great cause of stabilizing the Zhou Dynasty. "So he finally assisted Cheng Wang, and ordered his son Boqin to go to Lu State to receive the title on his behalf.

Zhou Gong warned Boqin: "I am the son of King Wen, the younger brother of King Wu, and the uncle of King Cheng. My status is not low among the people in the world. But I have to wash my hair many times and hold it many times to eat. Fan spit out the food he was chewing many times, and got up to receive the sages, so that he was afraid of losing the sages of the world. After you come to Lu, don’t be arrogant and arrogant because of the land.”)
"When meeting this Ming Lord, you and I only need to serve faithfully, and he might not be able to fulfill his wish to be a Marquis!"

Xu Yi rode his horse away, and the last words were sent to Li Ren's ears with the cool night wind.

"Brother Li, you should be lucky."
